Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Now the Mark Simone Show on seven ten or filling
- 0:05Speaker 1: in for Mark. Here's Ken Rosato. So nice to meak
- 0:09Speaker 1: with you on a Friday. How did you fare with
- 0:10Speaker 1: the nasty weather yesterday? Man? There were times when I
- 0:14Speaker 1: looked outside and I saw the rain coming down in
- 0:17Speaker 1: just sheets, and then other times it was just a drizzle.
- 0:21Speaker 1: But yeah, a lot of parts of our tri state
- 0:23Speaker 1: were really seriously, seriously hit. And of course parts of
- 0:27Speaker 1: southwestern Nassau County along the Queen's Border by Atlantic Beach,
- 0:32Speaker 1: that area, they got hit with a tornado. It's been
- 0:35Speaker 1: confirmed it started out as a water spout, so it
- 0:37Speaker 1: wasn't super strong. But hey, any tornado, even an EF
- 0:41Speaker 1: zero is still strong. You gotta be careful of it.
- 0:43Speaker 1: Here was some sat of some people reacting to it.
- 0:46Speaker 2: Holy, this is a tornado.
- 0:48Speaker 3: Wow.
- 0:50Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and it's kind of shocking, right. We don't
- 0:53Speaker 1: usually see tornadoes in the Northeast. Of course, again, the
- 0:56Speaker 1: tornadoes we get are nowhere near like the tornadoes in
- 0:59Speaker 1: the Midwest. Those are EF three's, fours fives. But like
- 1:03Speaker 1: I said, any tornado is not safe. We had more
- 1:06Speaker 1: flash flooding than anything else, like in parts of Queens
- 1:09Speaker 1: and even parts of coastal New Jersey. This was Queens
- 1:12Speaker 1: every time with t other storms, I run home from
- 1:14Speaker 1: work like wondering, hey, am I gonna make it back safe?
- 1:17Speaker 1: Twice this year, once last October during Halloween. Three times
- 1:21Speaker 1: within the span with not even one year. Man there
- 1:23Speaker 1: were cars that were totally flooded. Everywhere you went. We
- 1:26Speaker 1: couldn't get that toe tuck. Also, everyone was declining because
- 1:30Speaker 1: of the weather because they had too much going on. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 1:33Speaker 1: it's hard. It was a tough, tough commute. Remember, if
- 1:36Speaker 1: ever you see standing water in the street, the old
- 1:39Speaker 1: saying is turn around, don't drown, And it's the truth,
- 1:42Speaker 1: because you all you need is like six to eight
- 1:45Speaker 1: inches of standing water, and depending on the weight of
- 1:47Speaker 1: your car, you could you could literally start floating because
- 1:50Speaker 1: the tires are made of air and depending on the weight.
- 1:53Speaker 1: As I mentioned, a giant truck is not going to
- 1:55Speaker 1: float away necessarily in six inches of water, but you
- 1:59Speaker 1: know you can get a maybe a foot of water
- 2:02Speaker 1: could make a small truck float. So you've got to
- 2:04Speaker 1: be very careful. If you're not sure, you don't know
- 2:06Speaker 1: how deep things are, turn around. It's just safer at
- 2:09Speaker 1: worsh you'll get a beat from the guy behind you.
- 2:12Speaker 1: But you know, I mean, if you keep going forward,
- 2:14Speaker 1: it could be tragic. So you don't want to deal
- 2:16Speaker 1: with that. Seven ten wo R the Voice of New York.
- 2:20Speaker 1: This is Ken Rosetto and for the great Mark Simone,
- 2:23Speaker 1: who has a nice long weekend today. Mark, I hope
- 2:26Speaker 1: you're enjoying yourself, buddy, and we got a lot to
- 2:28Speaker 1: talk about. Phone lines are open. Eight hundred three two
- 2:32Speaker 1: one zero seven ten. Eight hundred three two one zero
- 2:37Speaker 1: seven ten. I don't know if you guys heard this
- 2:39Speaker 1: story about a Seattle nonprofit that is called We Heart Seattle.
- 2:44Speaker 1: They're now facing a Washington state investigation. Or well, let
- 2:49Speaker 1: me let me back up and say this, only on
- 2:52Speaker 1: the left coast would they be this insane. As liberal
- 2:56Speaker 1: as things are and people are in New York, we
- 2:58Speaker 1: have a democh kcratic socialist as mayor in New York City.
- 3:02Speaker 1: Things are nuts here, but you still have enough sane
- 3:04Speaker 1: people here to kind of right the ship when it
- 3:07Speaker 1: starts to flip. On the West coast, they have just
- 3:11Speaker 1: lost their freaking minds. They're insane, So just follow this.
- 3:17Speaker 1: You know, Seattle, they just elected a woman who looks
- 3:19Speaker 1: like she's certifiably insane. She just looks like she's out
- 3:23Speaker 1: to lunch. Who is the mayor? A woman who was
- 3:25Speaker 1: in her thirties, never worked a wheel job her entire
- 3:28Speaker 1: life literally survived. I think your parents are from New
- 3:33Speaker 1: Jersey if I'm correct. I think she survived by mommy
- 3:36Speaker 1: and daddy sending her a check each month so she
- 3:38Speaker 1: could rent an apartment in downtown Seattle. Because she talks
- 3:43Speaker 1: like this anyway, she became the elected mayor, a Democratic
- 3:48Speaker 1: socialist elected mayor of Seattle. Absolute looney bin doesn't have
- 3:52Speaker 1: a clue about that which she is doing. She got
- 3:56Speaker 1: elected well a Seattle nonprofit we Heart see It as
- 4:00Speaker 1: in we love Seattle. They're facing a Washington state investigation
- 4:05Speaker 1: over how the organization's volunteers collect and dispose of used
- 4:10Speaker 1: hypodermic needles and fentanyl foil from public spaces. You heard right.
- 4:15Speaker 1: Let me explain what that means. So the city of
- 4:17Speaker 1: Seattle basically encourages drug use, not unlike New York. They
- 4:22Speaker 1: actually give drug paraphernalia, needles, matches, instead of going to
- 4:26Speaker 1: somebody who's hooked on drugs and saying, let me get
- 4:28Speaker 1: you into treatment. No, God forbid, that's judgmental. Let's just
- 4:33Speaker 1: give them needles and foils and bonds. Let's just provide
- 4:38Speaker 1: it for free, because that's somehow better for them. Really,
- 4:43Speaker 1: let's encourage their really bad habits that could end up
- 4:45Speaker 1: in overdose. Oh yeah, that's better. So all you have
- 4:49Speaker 1: to do is go up and ask. You get all
- 4:50Speaker 1: these freebies. So the drug addicts do their drugs, and
- 4:54Speaker 1: these are people, you know, when you're hooked on drugs,
- 4:56Speaker 1: you don't care about anyone and anything. You will literally
- 4:59Speaker 1: sell your soul. You'll sell your mother's soul to get
- 5:02Speaker 1: your fix. So the drug addicts do their drugs, leave
- 5:06Speaker 1: the discarded needles and paraphernalia all over the ground because
- 5:11Speaker 1: in many cases they literally pass out as they inject
- 5:14Speaker 1: themselves with heroin or whatever or fentanyl. They just pass
- 5:17Speaker 1: out right there. So the needle, the used syringes falls
- 5:20Speaker 1: to the ground. And then a day later, when they
- 5:22Speaker 1: wake up and they kind of basically in a stupor
- 5:25Speaker 1: walk to the corner to get their next fix, they
- 5:28Speaker 1: just leave yead. They don't even realize they dropped a
- 5:30Speaker 1: syringe because they don't remember what they did yesterday. They
- 5:33Speaker 1: don't remember what they did five minutes ago. So all
- 5:35Speaker 1: these syringes and the little uh, the crack vials and whatnot,
- 5:40Speaker 1: that's just littering the ground. So you would think if
- 5:44Speaker 1: the City of Seattle is providing this crap for them
- 5:47Speaker 1: to inject into their veins, you would think the City
- 5:50Speaker 1: of Seattle would then go pick up the mess. No. See,
- 5:54Speaker 1: the drug addicts are shooting up in school grounds, parks
- 5:58Speaker 1: where people bring their kidskids, walk their dogs. Imagine having
- 6:02Speaker 1: to walk your dog around discarded syringes. That's what's happening
- 6:06Speaker 1: in Seattle right now. It's disgusting, absolutely disgusting. Well, this
- 6:11Speaker 1: woman started an organization. Her name is Andrea Suarez, and
- 6:15Speaker 1: again the organization is We Heart Seattle. And what she
- 6:19Speaker 1: does is she and a bunch of volunteers. They dress
- 6:22Speaker 1: up in hazmat suits and they have those long arms
- 6:25Speaker 1: with the little clamps at the end so they could
- 6:27Speaker 1: pick stuff up off the ground and not use their fingers.
- 6:31Speaker 1: And they pick up all the discarded needles and all
- 6:34Speaker 1: this junk, this discarded drug junk on the school grounds
- 6:38Speaker 1: and public parks so that kids don't have to encounter it,
- 6:41Speaker 1: and people walking their dogs don't have to see it,
- 6:44Speaker 1: and if you're walking your children, you don't have to
- 6:46Speaker 1: explain to the kids what it is. And rather than
- 6:49Speaker 1: thanking her organization for doing this free of charge, she
- 6:55Speaker 1: and our organization they're following all the rules everything they're
- 6:58Speaker 1: supposed to do. Volunteers I guess donate the money for
- 7:04Speaker 1: them to get their hazmat suits and whatnot. Instead of
- 7:07Speaker 1: saying thank you, the state is investigating her, saying that
- 7:11Speaker 1: there was a complaint against her and the group alleging quote,
- 7:15Speaker 1: improper handling and collection of drug paraphernalia. Really, so, the
- 7:21Speaker 1: city of Seattle is not being discredited forgiving the drug paraphernalia,
- 7:28Speaker 1: that's okay. The people who are shooting up in public
- 7:32Speaker 1: and discarding the needles, they could do that, that's okay.
- 7:37Speaker 1: But the volunteer who comes to clean up this crap
- 7:41Speaker 1: so kids don't have to step on it and dogs
- 7:44Speaker 1: don't have to get infected by it, that's the group
- 7:47Speaker 1: we're gonna go after, folks. This is when the inmates
- 7:52Speaker 1: are running the asylum. This is utter insanity, utter insanity.
- 7:58Speaker 1: The King County Public Health Department, they should be charged
- 8:02Speaker 1: for giving out the syringes, the fentanyl foil the cookers, tourniquets,
- 8:06Speaker 1: narcan cartridges. The federal government. By the way, it is
- 8:11Speaker 1: no matter how legal they make drug use locally, and
- 8:14Speaker 1: by the way, that includes marijuana use, it is still
- 8:17Speaker 1: against the law federally. And by the way, here's another
- 8:20Speaker 1: by the way, the Feds can step in and say
- 8:24Speaker 1: uh uh uh, you can't do this.
- 8:26Speaker 3: Now.
- 8:26Speaker 1: The local governments would say it is not illegal to
- 8:30Speaker 1: give out the syringes. The federl foil what it is
- 8:33Speaker 1: illegal to give out the drugs, and we're not doing that.
- 8:35Speaker 1: That's what they're gonna say. But I'm sure you could
- 8:38Speaker 1: tweak a federal law that says anything that has to
- 8:40Speaker 1: do with encouraging drug use, illicit drug use should be illegal,
- 8:45Speaker 1: could be illegal. I'm sure there's some obscure law we
- 8:48Speaker 1: could find and then send the Feds in. And you
- 8:51Speaker 1: know what, let's just make an example of the King
- 8:55Speaker 1: County Public Health Department and the New York Health Department too,
- 8:58Speaker 1: for doing the same thing with their quote unquote, while
- 9:00Speaker 1: we're doing the responsible thing giving clean syringes so these
- 9:03Speaker 1: people don't get infected with something. Guess what, they won't
- 9:06Speaker 1: get infected with something if they're not doing heroin, and
- 9:09Speaker 1: you don't help the problem by encouraging the use of heroin. Sorry,
- 9:14Speaker 1: I don't mean to be a moralist here, but you
- 9:17Speaker 1: don't encourage the end of bad behavior by encouraging bad behavior.
- 9:21Speaker 1: It doesn't work that way. And if somebody insists on
- 9:24Speaker 1: going through the hoops of getting high in spite of
- 9:28Speaker 1: all our ability to help them, well that's on them.
- 9:31Speaker 1: This organization, by the way, the iHeart Seattle. They have
- 9:35Speaker 1: gathered two and a quarter million pounds of this drug
- 9:39Speaker 1: trash since twenty twenty. And again the thanks from the
- 9:43Speaker 1: state of Washington is to investigate them and potentially charge
- 9:48Speaker 1: them only in America seven to ten wor the Voice
- 9:53Speaker 1: of New York, Ken Rizzotto, and for Mark Love to
- 9:55Speaker 1: hear what you have to say about that. Eight hundred
- 9:57Speaker 1: and three to two one zero sevent in eight hundred
- 10:01Speaker 1: three two one zero seven ten. Did you hear about
- 10:04Speaker 1: what happened in Albany yesterday? FBI now saying thirty five
- 10:08Speaker 1: year old Jessica Bowie of Albany. This is the FBI
- 10:12Speaker 1: saying that she plotted to bomb the state capitol. Transforming
- 10:17Speaker 1: from a little girl waving the American flag apparently to
- 10:20Speaker 1: pledging allegiance to ISIS and celebrating the nine to one one.
- 10:24Speaker 1: I'm sorry the nine to eleven. I always confused that it's
- 10:26Speaker 1: the nine eleven terror attacks. And Bowie allegedly began strategizing
- 10:32Speaker 1: an attack on the state capitol in July, and the
- 10:35Speaker 1: FBI says she planned to place the bomb in a
- 10:38Speaker 1: door dash food delivery bag. So here is the FBI's
- 10:42Speaker 1: Field Office Special Agent Craig Tremoroli talking about this. Make
- 10:46Speaker 1: no mistake about it.
- 10:48Speaker 4: Miss Bowie's alleged plot was serious.
- 10:51Speaker 1: Yeah, and serious it was. In fact, he talks a
- 10:54Speaker 1: little bit more about her pledging her allegiance to ISIS.
- 10:56Speaker 4: Miss Bowie swore her allegiance to ISIS through ultimple audio recordings.
- 11:01Speaker 1: Yeah, so they have a lot on her. They say
- 11:03Speaker 1: they wouldn't have made this public statement if they didn't.
- 11:06Speaker 1: The FBI is saying that allegedly Bowie told an FBI
- 11:12Speaker 1: informant that it would be quote beautiful to blow the
- 11:15Speaker 1: brains out of a nun Muslim. But wait, I thought
- 11:19Speaker 1: Islam was the religion of peace. So who are the
- 11:22Speaker 1: people who got to her and said otherwise? I don't
- 11:25Speaker 1: understand it. The religion of peace. Somebody tell me otherwise.
- 11:28Speaker 1: The FED say that she purchased bomb making materials from
- 11:31Speaker 1: a home depot on August fifth, and that she planned
- 11:35Speaker 1: the attack for earlier this week. Now Bowie converted to
- 11:38Speaker 1: Islam five years ago and was going by the Islamic
- 11:41Speaker 1: name Aisha Saif. And just last month, another radicalized Upstate
- 11:46Speaker 1: New Yorker, thirty seven year old Katherine Beth Washburn, was
- 11:50Speaker 1: charged with allegedly supporting an Islamist terrorist organization after donating
- 11:55Speaker 1: thirty thousand dollars in cryptocurrency to the Palestinian Islamic Jihad
- 11:59Speaker 1: group in Gaza. So here's a question, what the hell
- 12:03Speaker 1: is going on with liberal white women? They hate America.
- 12:07Speaker 1: Up Pol just shows twenty six percent of liberal white
- 12:10Speaker 1: women hate men. It's not that they dislike them. They
- 12:13Speaker 1: despise men. They hate traditionalism, they hate morality, they hate society.
- 12:20Speaker 1: What is going on? Who has gotten to them? Is
- 12:23Speaker 1: this social media? Is this the result of decades of
- 12:27Speaker 1: socialist brainwashing feminism run amuck? First they you know, they
- 12:32Speaker 1: taught them, Oh, you could have it all. I have
- 12:33Speaker 1: a career, put off having children until you're ninety, which,
- 12:36Speaker 1: of course isn't true, because you have a lot of
- 12:37Speaker 1: women who get upset when they find out, oh, I
- 12:39Speaker 1: can't have kids. Now it's too late, you don't have
- 12:42Speaker 1: to get married. The end result is our population growth
- 12:45Speaker 1: was severely curtailed and you have a lot of very
- 12:47Speaker 1: angry and very upset women. So I think as a
- 12:50Speaker 1: society we really have to step back and think about
- 12:52Speaker 1: what we've done. Because the most hardcore leftists were finding
- 12:56Speaker 1: are white liberal women. You gotta scribe your head and
- 13:00Speaker 1: saying what's causing this? And I think we need to
- 13:03Speaker 1: have an open and frank discussion about it and maybe
- 13:06Speaker 1: we can get to the bottom of it. But certainly
- 13:08Speaker 1: they are the of all groups of people of all demographics.
- 13:12Speaker 1: It's the twenty something and thirty something year old and
- 13:15Speaker 1: to some extent early forty something white women who become
- 13:19Speaker 1: the most ardent liberals. They could leave home and go
- 13:22Speaker 1: to college from a very conservative, traditional home and they
- 13:25Speaker 1: come back with green hair and nose piercings and flying
- 13:31Speaker 1: the Isis flag, and you got to wonder what is
- 13:34Speaker 1: going on? Seven ten WR The Voice of New York.

- 14:10Speaker 1: It's going to be a decent day today, and I
- 14:12Speaker 1: know who's going to make it more decent. Our friend,
- 14:14Speaker 1: Vincent and Brooklyn. Good morning, Vincent, Good morning Ken.
- 14:17Speaker 3: Ken. About sixty years ago, I attended an all boys
- 14:21Speaker 3: vocational high school and I had a great home economics teacher.
- 14:25Speaker 3: And when he wasn't talking about how to balance your
- 14:29Speaker 3: checkbook and how to how to survive on your salary,
- 14:34Speaker 3: he talked about world events and heat, he spoke about
- 14:38Speaker 3: his art. And this man was an Oskenazi Jew, and
- 14:41Speaker 3: he said, unlike Christianity, Judaism, Taoism and Buddhism, he says
- 14:48Speaker 3: the difference between those religions and Islam. He says Islam
- 14:53Speaker 3: it's either you convert or I'll cut your throat. Whereas
- 14:58Speaker 3: Judaism you want to be a you fine. Christianity, you
- 15:02Speaker 3: want to be a Christian. Fine. Even the missionaries, the
- 15:05Speaker 3: Christian missionaries when they went around the world, mainly they
- 15:09Speaker 3: went to these countries where people were really sick. They
- 15:13Speaker 3: whether in China and elsewhere in Africa. They were there
- 15:18Speaker 3: to bring fresh water, food. Yeah, they set up schools
- 15:22Speaker 3: and everything, but if you didn't want to go, you
- 15:26Speaker 3: didn't want to go. Ken In Italy, especially in Milan
- 15:30Speaker 3: and the big cities, they have big crime problems because
- 15:34Speaker 3: the first and set there's mainly the second generation of
- 15:39Speaker 3: the Arab peoples that came to work in Italy, got
- 15:44Speaker 3: their citizenship, learned to speak the language, were well placed
- 15:48Speaker 3: in society. Their children, like a lot of our children here,
- 15:52Speaker 3: they don't want any part of it. They want to
- 15:54Speaker 3: be drug dealers. They want to be criminals. They go
- 15:58Speaker 3: into these high end shopping uh stores like they do
- 16:02Speaker 3: out in the West Coast, and here fifty kids and
- 16:04Speaker 3: they just clean it out. They just take over. And
- 16:08Speaker 3: recently I saw a video where a policeman was trying
- 16:11Speaker 3: to stop them. They beat the living daylights out of
- 16:15Speaker 3: the cops and let's.
- 16:17Speaker 1: If I could just step in for one second. Let's
- 16:18Speaker 1: just be clear. They're and I got I know it
- 16:21Speaker 1: sounds like, oh really, there were plenty of good ones. Yes,
- 16:24Speaker 1: there are a plenty of beautiful watervls you and not
- 16:27Speaker 1: both of from that. No, but you're right, you're you're
- 16:29Speaker 1: giving real life examples of things that happened. There are
- 16:32Speaker 1: the think about this, many, not all, but many of
- 16:35Speaker 1: the people who commuted, who traveled to Italy, Spain, Portugal,
- 16:40Speaker 1: parts of France, right Paris, they were gangsters and drug
- 16:44Speaker 1: dealers looking to make a buck, so they looked as
- 16:47Speaker 1: they're opportunists. They went there. They just happened to be
- 16:51Speaker 1: from Islamic countries, so it's not that they were going there.
- 16:54Speaker 1: But yeah, they come, they come with their their mentality. Boom.
- 16:58Speaker 1: There is an investigation going on right now here in
- 17:02Speaker 1: Manhattan where there is a place where all the pushcart
- 17:05Speaker 1: people bring their pushcarts and it is sort of a secret,
- 17:09Speaker 1: behind the scenes mosque. And so you go in, you
- 17:14Speaker 1: drop off your cart and there is literally a mosque
- 17:17Speaker 1: running on the inside. But there's a lot of conversation
- 17:21Speaker 1: going on, and the question is some of the individuals
- 17:24Speaker 1: there are there for nefarious reasons. That's the investigation. Nothing's
- 17:28Speaker 1: been proven yet, it's under investigation. But I think we're
- 17:30Speaker 1: going to find out a lot more about this in
- 17:32Speaker 1: the weeks and months to come.
- 17:33Speaker 3: Yeah, in Colabria, the Colabria mafia, what they did, They
- 17:41Speaker 3: now employ the black migrants from Africa. They are the
- 17:45Speaker 3: main cocaine traffick is the Colombian send it to the
- 17:50Speaker 3: mob in Colabria and then they distributed. The black Africans
- 17:56Speaker 3: are the dealers are the street dealers. I head honchos
- 17:59Speaker 3: that have collabri and the mafia, but the street dealers
- 18:04Speaker 3: are the African, well, the black Africans a ken and
- 18:09Speaker 3: it's the same thing in Milan. I was coming home
- 18:12Speaker 3: from a pastry shop with my friend Alfred, from a
- 18:17Speaker 3: Sicilian pastry shop and this zombie, this junkie comes up
- 18:21Speaker 3: to our car and he didn't know who he was
- 18:23Speaker 3: fool of with my buddy Alfredo doesn't take anything from anybody.
- 18:28Speaker 3: He grabbed this guy by the neck under no certain terms.
- 18:32Speaker 3: Made him realize that if he.
- 18:35Speaker 1: Went forward, well, let's just say, let's just say here, Vincent,
- 18:38Speaker 1: before we indict anybody, let's just say that he had
- 18:40Speaker 1: a little conversation with this individual.
- 18:42Speaker 3: Exactly, and he made that guy have a conversation with
- 18:46Speaker 3: whoever he calls his god accidentally.
- 18:49Speaker 1: Accidentally, this individual, let's just say, his individual teeth ended
- 18:53Speaker 1: up in the on the floor as on the gun.
- 18:57Speaker 3: Ken.
- 18:57Speaker 1: It's just amazing how his face kept hitting your friend's
- 18:59Speaker 1: hand and it just wouldn't stop.
- 19:02Speaker 3: Exactly, Ken, exactly. Man, Well, you have a great week.
- 19:07Speaker 3: Great speaking to you, a zoy And hey man, what
- 19:11Speaker 3: a rough summer this has been, between these heat waves,
- 19:13Speaker 3: these downpours. Late last night, I was running up and
- 19:17Speaker 3: down between my cellar and Paula Floyd trying to make
- 19:21Speaker 3: sure that my house wasn't going to float away.
- 19:24Speaker 1: It was crazy, it was. It's amazing how much water
- 19:27Speaker 1: fell at once, Vincent. I'm with you.
- 19:28Speaker 3: My friend Milan actually in the middle of the night
- 19:33Speaker 3: set me a picture of that water spot that hit
- 19:36Speaker 3: the south shore of Long Island.
- 19:39Speaker 1: I love it. How somebody in Milan is letting us
- 19:41Speaker 1: know about something happening two miles away from us.
- 19:43Speaker 3: Because I was so busy worried about my own property.
- 19:46Speaker 1: Oh jeez, it's crazy, it's crazy.
- 19:49Speaker 3: Float away, Vinca.
- 19:50Speaker 1: I was saying, I watched this guy on YouTube. He's
- 19:53Speaker 1: a meteorologist in the South, and I'll just say the
- 19:57Speaker 1: word y'all people who are into who are weather geeks
- 19:59Speaker 1: will know ho I'm talking about. I don't want to
- 20:01Speaker 1: promote the show of the US. He already has like
- 20:03Speaker 1: a million followers, but he he is this brilliant meteorologist
- 20:06Speaker 1: and he has this network of cameras and radars from
- 20:10Speaker 1: all over the country. He was all over the Northeast
- 20:13Speaker 1: with these storms yesterday like white on Rice. Everybody who's
- 20:18Speaker 1: like all these meteorologists were calling into him, showing and
- 20:21Speaker 1: helping him, and it was crazy to watch. But as
- 20:23Speaker 1: that water spout was forming, he had it live. It
- 20:26Speaker 1: was crazy to watch it. But thank god I.
- 20:29Speaker 3: Saw it live. When it was hitting Atlantic Beach this morning,
- 20:34Speaker 3: I saw a feet of it that was somebody captured,
- 20:37Speaker 3: and hey, thank god only one. You could always replace
- 20:44Speaker 3: property and and things. Thank God there was no loss
- 20:48Speaker 3: of life. That's all I.
- 20:50Speaker 1: Vincent, my friend, you have a wonderful weekend. Enjoy it.
- 20:54Speaker 1: I know summer's coming to an end, so you enjoy yourself.
- 20:57Speaker 2: All right, you too.
- 20:58Speaker 3: Can thank you great weekend. Wait speak to you as always,
- 21:01Speaker 3: Ken like I can't buddy touch out.
- 21:03Speaker 1: Thank you Bill in New Jersey, Thank you for being
- 21:06Speaker 1: so patient. Good morning to you.
- 21:09Speaker 2: Wow, that was a long one.
- 21:12Speaker 1: Listen, the rule of thumb is you don't cut off Vincent.
- 21:15Speaker 1: Just think of the guy in Malona.
- 21:17Speaker 2: Okay, I guess, I guess. Well, I'm going to bring
- 21:21Speaker 2: up a subject that has been talked about for thousands
- 21:24Speaker 2: of years and we'll be talking about for thousands more.
- 21:27Speaker 2: But it's religion.
- 21:30Speaker 3: It's God.
- 21:31Speaker 2: Who is God in everybody's mind. You mentioned all the
- 21:34Speaker 2: different religions before. And I'll speak briefly about Christianity and Jesus.
- 21:43Speaker 2: Was Jesus born and did he die as a Jew?
- 21:46Speaker 2: And he will say yes, did he live the Jewish
- 21:51Speaker 2: way of life? Well, the Jews back in the day
- 21:54Speaker 2: didn't seem to believe so, because they called him a
- 21:57Speaker 2: blasphemer and they had him. So, you know, I talked
- 22:02Speaker 2: to too many Jews that are my friends, and they say,
- 22:07Speaker 2: you know, being a Jew is the way of life,
- 22:09Speaker 2: and if you don't live the Jewish way of life,
- 22:12Speaker 2: then you're not a Jew. And these guys are my
- 22:15Speaker 2: age in the seventies. They have sons who are Orthodox
- 22:18Speaker 2: jew and they call their fathers half pass Jews because
- 22:21Speaker 2: they don't go to the temple or synagogue and they
- 22:23Speaker 2: don't practice the faith. They just want to run their businesses.
- 22:27Speaker 2: So Christianity, it begins with Christ Christmas, it begins with Christ.
- 22:34Speaker 2: Was Jesus a Jew? Evidently not because they killed him?
- 22:39Speaker 2: Because he spoke against the Jewish way of life, and
- 22:43Speaker 2: he started Christianity. So the Catholics follow that closer than
- 22:48Speaker 2: any other religion.
- 22:49Speaker 1: And the Orthodox, the Orthodox, we got to say, we
- 22:52Speaker 1: have to always throw that out. I was a Catholic priest,
- 22:54Speaker 1: so we always say the Catholic and the Orthodox together
- 22:56Speaker 1: really followed. In fact, the Orthodox would say their tradition
- 22:59Speaker 1: is actually more close related. And don't I'm only cutting
- 23:01Speaker 1: us off because because we have news coming up here.
- 23:04Speaker 1: But Bill, you're you're not wrong. A lot of that
- 23:06Speaker 1: we could have the discussion about whether he was a Jew.
- 23:10Speaker 1: I think most people would say most that he was
- 23:13Speaker 1: a Jew because he never remember he never abolished Judaism
- 23:17Speaker 1: per se. I know people are going to debate me
- 23:19Speaker 1: on that he is the he was meant to bring
- 23:22Speaker 1: the faith and the resurrection and blah blah blh, etcetera, etcetera.
- 23:25Speaker 1: I don't want to get into a religious discussion. We
- 23:27Speaker 1: could do that off the air, but Jesus was supposed
- 23:30Speaker 1: to be the let's say, say, the reader's digest version
- 23:33Speaker 1: and to bring everybody back to the faith. But again
- 23:36Speaker 1: that's a discussion for another day. But thank you very much, Bill,
- 23:39Speaker 1: I appreciate it. But yes, religion, while people love to
- 23:42Speaker 1: criticize and say, you see the world religions, they're the
- 23:45Speaker 1: cause of all the wars. No, no, no, no, it's people
- 23:48Speaker 1: are the cause of the wars, not the religion. So please,
- 23:50Speaker 1: let's let's not go there. Seven ten wo R The
- 23:53Speaker 1: Voice of New York. No Mark Simon's show Live from
- 23:57Speaker 1: the WR like fac Studios guest hosting from Mark Today,
- 24:02Speaker 1: here's King Rosato and so good to be with you
- 24:06Speaker 1: on a Friday, seven ten w o R The Voice
- 24:08Speaker 1: of New York. You know school districts that are keeping
- 24:11Speaker 1: secrets from parents when children socially transition in school, they're
- 24:16Speaker 1: now in for rude awakening. There is now a lawsuit
- 24:19Speaker 1: against the New Jersey school District regarding student gender identity.
- 24:23Speaker 1: Attorney Ronald Berruti filed suit against the district that was
- 24:27Speaker 1: allegedly socially transitioning a child without telling the parents and
- 24:31Speaker 1: without their consent. The school says under New Jersey State
- 24:34Speaker 1: Policy fifty seven fifty six, they have no obligation to
- 24:37Speaker 1: notify the parents and the doing so would violate students
- 24:40Speaker 1: privacy and safety. But saying, people say this is a
- 24:44Speaker 1: violation of parental rights. Attorney Ronald Berruti, Good morning, and
- 24:48Speaker 1: welcome to the Mark Simone Show.
- 24:50Speaker 4: Yeah, good morning, Kent, thanks for having me.
- 24:52Speaker 1: You bet so talk about the main argument in your complaint.
- 24:56Speaker 4: Yeah, So, in the complaint that we have in state court,
- 25:05Speaker 4: child a minor child of a married couple. He is
- 25:10Speaker 4: in school and decides that she wanted to start being
- 25:15Speaker 4: called by a boy's name and wanted to change her pronouns.
- 25:19Speaker 4: So the school district then began honoring her wishes and
- 25:25Speaker 4: created a whole separate set of records using a petitive
- 25:30Speaker 4: boy's name instead of her given name, and then kept
- 25:33Speaker 4: its secret from the parents, who eventually found out not
- 25:37Speaker 4: from the school. And so the argument is that the
- 25:41Speaker 4: parents have an absolute constitutional right under the fourteenth Amendment
- 25:46Speaker 4: to their parental rights are being violated, and also they
- 25:51Speaker 4: have religious objections to this practice. And because they did
- 25:55Speaker 4: not have an opportunity to opt out of what is
- 25:58Speaker 4: the school wide school district wide policy promoted by the state.
- 26:02Speaker 4: No less, so sidy have an opportunity to opt out
- 26:06Speaker 4: their first Amendment free exercise rights are also being violated.
- 26:12Speaker 1: Now, describe what this is when we're talking about policy
- 26:16Speaker 1: fifty seven to fifty six in New Jersey, and is
- 26:19Speaker 1: that constitutional?
- 26:21Speaker 4: No, our argument is that it is not. The court
- 26:24Speaker 4: in our New Jersey case has granted a temporary restraining
- 26:29Speaker 4: order preventing the state and the school district in question
- 26:33Speaker 4: to preventing them from continuing on with these policies, depending
- 26:39Speaker 4: a hearing on the merits, which will be held on
- 26:41Speaker 4: September third in the Moonmouth County Courthouse.
- 26:45Speaker 1: I mean, this is along the same lines as we've
- 26:48Speaker 1: heard of school districts around the country who take a
- 26:50Speaker 1: child who wants to have an abortion across state lines.
- 26:53Speaker 1: And this is an absolute violation of parental school trust.
- 26:59Speaker 1: You pay school taxes, you put your child on a
- 27:02Speaker 1: school bus, and you assume that the child will be
- 27:05Speaker 1: protected through the day and come back the child that
- 27:08Speaker 1: you left at the school bus in the morning, and
- 27:09Speaker 1: that isn't the case.
- 27:12Speaker 4: Yeah, it's very difficult to deal with this for these parents.
- 27:17Speaker 4: I have three of these cases right now, and I
- 27:19Speaker 4: know of others that are percolating. The parents are really
- 27:26Speaker 4: they don't they can't believe that this is happening to
- 27:28Speaker 4: their child typically and that they've been not been able
- 27:32Speaker 4: to get help. I have another case where a parent
- 27:34Speaker 4: was helping the child, you know, and I had no
- 27:37Speaker 4: problem with the child deciding to transition once she was
- 27:42Speaker 4: eighteen years old, but while the child was eighteen years
- 27:46Speaker 4: under eighteen and under his roof, he wanted to be
- 27:50Speaker 4: able to work through things with the child. Because truth is,
- 27:54Speaker 4: brains aren't fully formed until the mid twenties, and children
- 27:59Speaker 4: need their parents guidance. Fit parents, that is, you know,
- 28:02Speaker 4: we're not talking about abusive parents, we're talking fit parents.
- 28:05Speaker 1: Right, And that's one of the arguments I guess that
- 28:07Speaker 1: the districts were making was that, you know, in these cases,
- 28:12Speaker 1: these kids could be subjected to abuse at home if
- 28:16Speaker 1: the parents knew that this was happening at school. But
- 28:18Speaker 1: if that were the case, there are other laws that
- 28:21Speaker 1: are being violated if the parents are being abusive, right,
- 28:23Speaker 1: And that's a separate and above and beyond this.
- 28:27Speaker 4: Oh, absolutely, and no parents should be abusive, and no
- 28:31Speaker 4: parental abuse should be tolerated, and it's not by law.
- 28:35Speaker 4: But we're talking fit parents. And look, the story I
- 28:40Speaker 4: hear from parents who have gone through this is not
- 28:43Speaker 4: that they're angry at their child. It's that they are
- 28:46Speaker 4: so sorrowful that they were not able to talk to
- 28:51Speaker 4: their child and speak to the child and try to
- 28:54Speaker 4: work through it with their child and try to understand
- 28:56Speaker 4: what was going on with the child. It's a loss
- 28:59Speaker 4: of families to complete. Really, it's a destruction of the family.
- 29:02Speaker 4: It's not a matter of being angry with the child.
- 29:05Speaker 4: The children have all sorts of issues, and parents are
- 29:09Speaker 4: supposed to play the primary role in raising children, be
- 29:14Speaker 4: it for educational or for medical issues.
- 29:18Speaker 1: But again, the idea that the parent sort of has
- 29:21Speaker 1: a feeling of having one pulled over on them, That
- 29:24Speaker 1: the only one who the secret is kept from is
- 29:27Speaker 1: the parent, and yet the parent is the one forced
- 29:29Speaker 1: to pay the school taxes, the parent is the one
- 29:31Speaker 1: forced to care for the child, and yet the parent
- 29:35Speaker 1: is the one that the secret is kept from, is
- 29:37Speaker 1: just infuriating.
- 29:38Speaker 4: Well, that's actually an interesting point because one of the
- 29:41Speaker 4: issues is, Look, these school administrators, none of whom is
- 29:46Speaker 4: None of these people are educated in any kind of
- 29:50Speaker 4: psychotherapy or anything like that. There's school administrators, people with
- 29:53Speaker 4: teaching degrees, administrative degrees. They're not professionals, and they're doing
- 29:58Speaker 4: this transitioning. At some point the child leaves the school
- 30:02Speaker 4: and those people are out of their lives. The parents, though,
- 30:06Speaker 4: are still going to be responsible for paying for all
- 30:10Speaker 4: the psychiatric treatments, the medical treatments, anything that comes up.
- 30:16Speaker 4: The parents are forever going to be on the hook
- 30:18Speaker 4: for these things. And there are plenty cases where where
- 30:24Speaker 4: there are children who have transitioned and as adults they
- 30:28Speaker 4: want to they wish they hadn't done that, They wish
- 30:31Speaker 4: they could transition back that because they made a decision
- 30:35Speaker 4: too early in their lives. There are many people who
- 30:38Speaker 4: transitioned and they're happy, and God bless them. To me,
- 30:41Speaker 4: that's not something that I'm against. If they're emotionally able
- 30:49Speaker 4: to do that and want to do that, that's their business.
- 30:51Speaker 4: But for a child, the child is the business of
- 30:54Speaker 4: the parent, and the parents have absolute constitutional rights, and
- 30:58Speaker 4: it's the parents ultimately who has to bear the burden
- 31:02Speaker 4: of how the child turns out in terms of happiness
- 31:08Speaker 4: and psychological impact. And frankly physical impact as well.
- 31:12Speaker 1: Yeah, we're talking with attorney Ron Burruti, who is in
- 31:16Speaker 1: the middle of several lawsuits. Actually, one we're talking about
- 31:19Speaker 1: right now is involving a New Jersey school district where
- 31:22Speaker 1: children are allowed to be in the school district transitioning
- 31:26Speaker 1: socially and the parents are not told of this. So
- 31:29Speaker 1: this is what the lawsuit is about. And there are
- 31:31Speaker 1: you have two other lawsuits. Talk about the federal lawsuits
- 31:34Speaker 1: if you can.
- 31:36Speaker 4: Yeah, So I have one case that was pending for
- 31:40Speaker 4: a few years now, which is a similar tale of
- 31:43Speaker 4: a daughter of a father, a single father, whose wife
- 31:49Speaker 4: had died when the child was four years old, and
- 31:53Speaker 4: as she had suffered obviously through lots of trauma. Also,
- 31:57Speaker 4: you know, someone on the spectrum for autism, which is
- 32:03Speaker 4: the school district's really really go after those kids because
- 32:06Speaker 4: a lot of them feel out of place already because
- 32:08Speaker 4: of their autism. But this girl was actually had spoken
- 32:14Speaker 4: to her father about this, and she was undergoing various
- 32:20Speaker 4: therapy and you know, nothing to try to dissuade her,
- 32:24Speaker 4: but to try to help her, to make sure that
- 32:26Speaker 4: she was, you know, feeling the right way and that
- 32:28Speaker 4: she was not just being impulsive. And that was the
- 32:31Speaker 4: situation again where the father was said at eighteen, if
- 32:34Speaker 4: you want to do this on your own, that's your business,
- 32:37Speaker 4: but you're under my roof right now and I want
- 32:38Speaker 4: to help you. But still she told the school she
- 32:42Speaker 4: joined the club and told the school that she'd liked
- 32:45Speaker 4: to be called by a boy's name. And it was
- 32:47Speaker 4: months after the fact that the father learned and he
- 32:52Speaker 4: was just really taken aback that this was happening behind
- 32:55Speaker 4: his back, that school officials would call him use his
- 32:59Speaker 4: daughter's name as a female, but at all other times
- 33:03Speaker 4: would refer to the daughter as by a boy's name.
- 33:06Speaker 4: And the child was leading a double life and was
- 33:10Speaker 4: really struggling psychologists psychologically because of it. And we sued
- 33:19Speaker 4: for him on grounds of parental rights, alleging that this
- 33:22Speaker 4: was unconstitutional.
- 33:23Speaker 1: Ron do you see this going to the Supreme Court?
- 33:26Speaker 4: Well, the interesting part is that the United States Supreme
- 33:29Speaker 4: Court has already ruled on this issue, at least temporarily
- 33:34Speaker 4: in California that had the same types of policies. Supreme
- 33:37Speaker 4: Court recently ruled that there's a likelihood of success on
- 33:40Speaker 4: the merits that California an injunction would be issued against
- 33:44Speaker 4: California from engaging in these practices. But New Jersey, among
- 33:49Speaker 4: other states, still does this and still has these policies.
- 33:53Speaker 4: And we're now relying upon that case in the Supreme
- 33:57Speaker 4: Court that came out of California in support of our
- 34:00Speaker 4: case here, and with that ruling, we feel that we
- 34:04Speaker 4: have a tremendous chance of success on any and all
- 34:07Speaker 4: of these cases that we're taking with regard to parents' rights.
- 34:11Speaker 1: All right, Ron Baruti, attorney, please keep us abreast of things,
- 34:14Speaker 1: let us know what happens with these cases. And thanks
- 34:17Speaker 1: for being on the Mark Simone Show. Thanks so much
- 34:19Speaker 1: for having me ket rozottowin from Mark on your Friday.
- 34:22Speaker 1: When we come back, we'll take more of your calls
- 34:23Speaker 1: and numbers. Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten,
- 34:27Speaker 1: eight hundred three two one zero seven ten calling now
- 34:30Speaker 1: for WR. Now more of the Mark Simone Show on
- 34:33Speaker 1: seven to ten.
- 34:34Speaker 5: WR filling in for Mark Here again is Ken Rosatto.
- 34:39Speaker 1: Hey, good to be with you on a Friday. Straight
- 34:41Speaker 1: to our busy phones. We go to Roger in a story.
- 34:43Speaker 1: Thanks for being so patient, Roger, good morning, are good,
- 34:49Speaker 1: my friend.
- 34:51Speaker 5: So my take is that this should go to the
- 34:55Speaker 5: Supreme Court just as fast as possible so that you
- 34:58Speaker 5: don't have to go through fifth the States worth of
- 35:02Speaker 5: you know, somebody deciding this or deciding that. And my
- 35:05Speaker 5: opinion is that inherent in almost anybody's, in almost any
- 35:12Speaker 5: culture's definition of what a parent is. You know, they
- 35:17Speaker 5: have the welfare of the child. They cannot be cut
- 35:20Speaker 5: out of something, especially something as important as a child's
- 35:27Speaker 5: formative thoughts as to their sexuality.
- 35:31Speaker 1: Yeah, Roger, I don't mean to cut you off. We
- 35:33Speaker 1: have the news here. You're one hundred percent right. I'm
- 35:35Speaker 1: with you one hundred percent. I just hope to God
- 35:38Speaker 1: that the courts continue to side with parents because it's
- 35:42Speaker 1: kind of horrible when you consider parents. You have to feed, clothes,
- 35:45Speaker 1: protect your child, right, we have to pay for the
- 35:47Speaker 1: school taxes, and then what the school district gets to
- 35:50Speaker 1: do whatever they want with your child, and including things
- 35:53Speaker 1: like letting them transition without your permission and keep you
- 35:55Speaker 1: out of a loop. No, not acceptable. Mark can to
- 35:58Speaker 1: be back in the seat on Monday. Thanks thank you
- 36:00Speaker 1: to Mark in the war for letting me sit in.
