• 0:15
  Speaker 2: a little hot, ninety degree sunny day. Same thing tomorrow.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: Although there was a forecast of a lot of thunderstorms
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: on Sunday, it looks like that's changing a little. It
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: looks like now it's a passing thunderstorm on Sunday. So
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: it should be a great weekend. We'll get to crazy
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: Scott Pelley, We'll get to Pratt Platner, We'll get to
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: Biden in town. We'll get to a crazy mayor, Mom,
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: Donnie and the Arch, and a whole lot more. Of course,
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: the Knicks tonight, big game tonight, that's San Antonio. Then
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: they come back here and they play in New York
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: Monday night. It will be a big, big game Monday night.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: President Trump will be here, so it'd be a security nightmare.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: Traffic wise, it'll be a mess Monday night, Trump, President
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: Trump coming in for the next game. He'll sit turns
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: out now in the owner's box, the suite with Jim
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: Dolan and some others will be there. Bruce Blakeman and
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: some other people. Mom Donnie is coming to the game.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: He makes it clear he will not be in the
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: owner's suite. He will be somewhere in the stands. He
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: claims he's paid for the ticket, which means the campaign
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: paid for the ticket, since he has no income, has
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: never had a job. But he'll be there. And then
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: if you go online and try to get a ticket
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: for this Monday night game at the Garden, I think
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: the cheapest ticket resale is now like two hundred and
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: eighty five thousand dollars. Absolutely preposterous. President Trump yesterday, I'm
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: going to the next game.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: I've been a Nick fan for a long time, and
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: I'm also a Jim Dolan fan.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: He's a nice guy.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Okay, He's been a long time wanting to win, and
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: he's he's a competitive guy, and he's got a team
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: that's amazing.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't think Kathy Hope will be there because
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: it'd be the first time she ever went to a
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: Knicks game. She tried to imply President Trump was not
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: a Knicks fan, although people quickly went online and found
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: many thousands of pictures of him sitting at the front
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: row of the Knicks through the years, all constantly for
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: like thirty forty years. He really is a big Knicks fan.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: And remember he put them on the Apprentice. He's a
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: big Knicks fan. So he'll be there Monday night. It'll
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: be a big, big moment in New York. If you've
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: been walking around New York, you'll notice there are all
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: the bagel places now have orange, orange and blue bagels. Donuts,
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: orange and blue donuts are everywhere. It's Knicks fever everywhere
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: in New York. Hey, President Trump has he's appointed this guy,
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Bruce Poulty as the acting Director of National Intelligence. Now,
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: as we keep telling you, he's not going to be
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: the Director of National Intelligence. This is just temporary until
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: they and he did this last time first term, just
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: threw somebody in there temporarily till he found who he wanted,
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: which ended up being John Ratcliffe. So and you know,
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: this Paulty doesn't look very qualified for Director of National Intelligence.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: President asked about that yesterday. It's an acting position, it's
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: not apartment. He's not going to be permanent, because you know,
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: I don't think he'd want to be permanent.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: But he's a very smart guy and he may find
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: as some things about the rigged elections, et cetera.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: Et cetera. Yeah, he's a very smart guy. He's one
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: run Fanny and Freddie and all sorts of He's very
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: good at going into one of these big systems and
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: finding some flaws or some things that shouldn't be there.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: So that's one reason he wants to go They want
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: he Trump wants him to go in. He's like sending
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: an auditor in the check things. He's gonna check out
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: the intelligence community, what they're hiding, what they're not doing,
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: what they should be doing, what they're doing, that they
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: shouldn't be doing, that kind of stuff. Although it's it's
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: the CIA, it's the intelligence people imagine they're pretty good
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: at covering stuff up, but he's pretty good at finding it.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: So that's why he's there till they appoint somebody. President
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: wants better stuff coming from the intelligence community. You can't
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: trust them, as many presidents from Kennedy to Bush learned,
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: you can't trust him on everything. John Bolton will pay
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: a two and a two point two five million dollars fine,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: he's agreed to that. You know, Bolton, if you go
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: back to last year, all you heard about was this
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: is a weaponization of the Justice Department retribution. He's been
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: targeted for being a critic of the president. Well, it
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: turns out he's absolutely one thousand percent guilty. He's admitted
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: that he's totally guilty. One of the reasons he pled guilty.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: He's facing like eight eight counts that could send him
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: to jail for a long time. So to get rid
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: of that, he agreed to plead guilty till one count,
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: where the maximum prison term would be five years. He's
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: agreed one count, he'll pay the big fine. Still, a
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: judge could still send him to prison. But if you
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: go back to last year, you'll see everybody, including him,
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: all over television saying these are false charges. They're just
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: weaponizing the Justice Department. They're just out to get them.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: And then if you go back to when Trump mar
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: a Lago was rated the document's case, you'll see video
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: of Bolton all over television saying President Trump, Donald Trump
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: must go to jail for having those documents. He must
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: go to jail. So Bolton obviously regretting those videos. In fact,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: the prosecutor could play that for the judge where Bolton
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: on television says you've got to go to jail for
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: having classified documents. You got to give the guy credit
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: for Hutzbud Oliver Television saying that when he knows at
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: home on his computer, he's got tons of classified documents
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: sitting there. Not only that, but he shared him with
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: his family. Obviously they have no clearance to look at
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: this stuff. He was a hundred percent guilty. Hey, and
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: a lot of people pointing out that what he's gonna
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: get convicted of and possibly go to jail for and
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: definitely pay a huge fine is exactly what Hillary Clinton
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: got caught doing, storing classified documents on her home computers.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: Totally illegal. This is what Hillary Clinton did. This is
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: what she should have been convicted of. But the dirty
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: cop James Komby, remember he held that fake press conference
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: where he said no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a charge. Well,
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: there was never any truth to that. It was a
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: total lie. It was Komy at his dirtiest, you know,
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: letting Hillary off the hook. Now, it's definitely a crime.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: Hillary should have been charged with it. Any reasonable prosecutor
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: would bring the charge. And here's the real point. These
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: charges against Bolton began under the Biden Justice Department. It
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: was the Biden Justice Department that opened up this case.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: It was the Biden Justice Department that began this process,
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: So it's a Biden case originally. Hey, speaking of Crazy Joe.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: He and Jill are in town for the book tour
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: of this horrible book. It's the if you read the book,
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: it's just boring, shallow, empty, dull. In other words, it
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: captures her perfectly. It's really hering. There's nothing in the book.
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: You know, when anybody's on a book tour and they're
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: doing all these TV shows, all these interviews about the book,
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: what they do is in the interviews they give you
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: some juicy tidbits from the book or wow, and they
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: tell you a story in the book and the host is,
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: oh my, wow. You notice there hasn't been one of
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: those from Jill Biden because there aren't any. There's no highlights,
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: there's no juicy things in the book. Nothing. So in
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: four hundred interviews, she has yet to reveal anything of interest.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: Even the publisher, you know, usually the publisher puts out
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: some stuff. You know, hey, here's what's in the book.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: There's nothing, absolutely nothing. So they run around New York
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: doing interviews with a caravan of SUVs seven eight big
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: you had, you know, these big big those black secret
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: service kind of cars pull up and the bidens that
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: travel all over the place in New York. They did
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: go to dinner last night. They were supposed to go.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: The word was they were going to Elios. Now on
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: the Upper East Side, there's a little circuit of the
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: top Italian restaurants. There's Elos, there's Promola, and there's Nicola's.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: Nicola's is the best of the bunch, especially food wise,
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: it's the best, one of the best Italian restaurants in
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: New York. Elio's very popular, but with the wrong people,
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: you know, Nicolas. You go in there, you get the
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: top CEOs, the tough business people. Elos is Donny Deutsch
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: and that sort of It's like a lot of media.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of Donny Deutsch's in there. So the
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: word was Biden was going to go to Elio's last night.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: So a lot of people showed up. Donny Deutsch, Martha Stewart,
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: all these celebrities are sitting there waiting for Joe Biden.
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: He fooled everybody and he went to the restaurant FuMO,
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: which nothing wrong with it, but it's kind of a
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: nothing place. It's a little tiny, it doesn't look like much.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: It's not Nicolas, it's not ELO's or Promola. Doesn't look
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: like that Fumos. If you walk by, you just kind
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: of look at it and not even think about going.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: And somehow Biden ended up there some speculation that Biden
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: just got lost and mistaken and thought he was in
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: Ilios Ilio's saying they really didn't ever think he was coming.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: But hopefully this is it and the Bidens will leave
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: town today and get the hell out of here. Hey,
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: you know about the arch, This is going to be
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: the next big thing. The ballroom fight and all that,
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: and then the Democrats and the liberals, the media have
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: been fighting about the reflecting pool. They don't like what
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: Trump did to it. He fixed it. It was a
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: total disaster, leaking a mess. He fixed it. It's now
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: working perfectly. But they don't like the color heat the
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: blue that he used. So that was a big fight,
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: but it didn't catch on. Public couldn't care less about this.
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: So the next big fight will be the arch. He
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: wants to put in a massive arch in Washington, DC,
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: you know, like the Arcta triumphan in Paris, that beautiful
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: arch where all the big boulevards come together, that circle,
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: and then Washington Square Park you got a little version
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: of it. You got that arch. So Trump wants to
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: build one of those in Washington, d C. As you
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: head towards the Potomac, and it looks beautiful. I mean,
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: maybe a little too much gold on it, but it
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: looks beautiful. It looks spectacular. He's the greatest builder in America,
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: so he'll get it done. So if you're on only
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: those left wing sites, the Blue Sky, the left wing
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: Facebook people, they are all yelling and screaming about the arch.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: It blocks the view of Arlington. I don't know, but
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: it stops there to look at Arlington, and actually with
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: the arch, people will most likely get out and walk
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: around that circle and they'll have the view. Doug Bergham testifying,
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: had to defend the arch.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: There's a very large circle. It was designed to hold
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: a monument. The arc that would go there is a
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: fantastic compliment and completion of this plan that's over one
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: hundred and twenty years ago.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah. No, it looks beautiful. Maybe a little touch cold,
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: but it looks beautiful.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: People come from around the world. They don't know that
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: one hundred yards away is the beautiful Potomac River, which
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: was part of the original plan. And now they didn't
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: be able to walk around the Lincoln Memorial, walk on
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: a pedestrian bridge, over the first highway, walk over the
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: next one, and right down to the water.
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it'll be beautiful. But Democrats love to yell and
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: scream about any thing they ken, So had that crazy
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: Scott Pelley, he put out this letter to everybody. I
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: still think CBS should sue him. He really should get
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: sued over this. He accuses him of all kinds of nonsense.
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: He claims he was ordered he was told to put
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: fake things into stories. He was told to put false
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: assertations into stories, put false information into stories. Now the
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: real truth. That's why the should sueme to have this
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: all come out. All he was told to do was
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: when he was doing one of those hit pieces. When
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: he was doing one of those hatchet jobs, he was told, hey,
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: you got to put in a response from the other side.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: You have to get the other So when he went
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: vicious attack on the Trump administration, he had to let
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: them respond and put that in the piece, which is
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: standard journalism for one hundred years, but to him, that
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: was putting false assertations in there. Now, look at this,
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: Katie Kuric all of a sudden jumps into this. Katie
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: Kuric comes out and says, CBS was absolutely right. Barry
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: Weiss had no choice, no choice but to fire him.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: It was classic definitive insubordination. You had to fire him. Now,
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: she's a real left winger. Why would she jump in
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: on this, Well, obviously she'd like to go back to CBS.
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: Obviously she knows there's going to be a lot of
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: openings at sixty minutes for correspondence anchors. She'd like to
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: be one of them. So that's why she's jumping back
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: in there now. Of course, she was once the anchor
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: of the CBS Evening News paid her of fortune to
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: get her away from NBC. It didn't do well, it
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: wasn't great. Now, the one reason she could be hired
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: there is she was always known, you know the Today
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: Show years as kind of a neutral, non political kind
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: of a person. However, in the last year she's gone
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: very left wing and really lashed out at Trump and
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: that kind of stuff all over podcasts in every place.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: So now maybe that was the Curry favored with the
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: left and didn't work. They left, didn't have much interest.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: And now maybe she's trying to go back the other way.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: But you left a paper trail of comments that might
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: make them think you're not so objective. Hey, if you're
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: a Democrat or a liberal, you might want to cover
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: your ears from it. It's very bad news for you.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: And it was a very sad day for CNBC. They
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: had to report the new jobs numbers job's numbers coming
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: out this morning. They were not only good, they were spectacular.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: They were double double what was expected one hundred and
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: seventy two thousand new jobs in the month. Not twenty
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: percent better than expected, one hundred percent better. Literally double.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: Unemployment rate remains four point three. That is considered full employment,
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: very good news for the economy. Don't tell Elizabeth Warren
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: about that, you know, whenever she's asked about Platner, she
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: changes the subject about how bad everything Everything is bad.
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: To Elizabeth Warren, I do.
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: You worry about war coming out about his past?
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: That could damage his chances.
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: What I'm worried about is another day of war in iranizations.
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: Are these accusations disturbing to you?
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: What is disturbing to me is what's happening in this
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: economy and how right now the Republicans just sign off
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: on it.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what is happening in this disastrous economy? This is
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: all over, these sort of things all over CNN, MSNBC,
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: the disastrous economy, and the Liberals have all convinced themselves
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: there's problems in the economy. Every economic number, every economic
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: metric is great right now, except for gas prices. They're
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: a little higher, nowhere near the Biden levels, but they're
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: a little higher, and that'll come down. But otherwise the
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: economy is doing very very well. Don't tell her that though. Hey,
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: we'll take some calls in a moment. Eight hundred three
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: to two one zero seven ten is the number. Eight
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: hundred three two one zero seven ten.
