  Speaker 1: The Mark Simone Show, live from the WOR LifeVac studios. Hey,
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: let's take some calls. Let's go to Carl in New Jersey. Carl,
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: how you doing?
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: Hey, Mark, thanks for taking my call. Hold it down.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: Hold it down. People are sleeping here.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: Okay, sorry. What people seem to be talking about here
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: in New Jersey is Cory Booker is on the ballot.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: He's a senator. It's a six-year term. He's running against
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: a guy named Justin Murphy. And he's a nobody, and
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: he's a long shot. But this is a chance to
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: really shake the Democratic cage at the top. And nobody
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: seems to be covering it.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: I know, but let's be honest. You people in New Jersey,
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: nothing personal, but you people in New Jersey vote in
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: the worst people as governors, as senators.
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: I'm a mom of county and we went red, but
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: you are not wrong. You are not wrong.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: You vote in some wacky governors and that Cory Booker
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: is like, as they call him, the dollar store Obama.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: Dollar store Obama. He's going to run for president again.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: And if he's in the next cycle, he's going to
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: continue to throw New Jersey under the bus to gain
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: favor with his party.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: And he runs for president every time. Nobody knows, but
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: he runs for president every time. Let's go to Larry
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: in Cranford, New Jersey. Larry, how you doing?
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: Hey, Mark.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Hi. So what has Kathy Holcomb been doing all this time?
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: She's going to lower prices?
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: When? The day after Election Day?
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it's a fascinating phenomenon. Democrats have had total
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: control in New York for 15 years. Democrats controlled City Hall,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: the legislature, the governor's mansion, every inch of New York
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: governed by Democrats, 15 years. Now they tell you there's
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: a crime problem. Oh, there's an affordability crisis.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: There's this.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: Electric bills are too high. Well, if this is the case,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: it's all your fault. They should throw you out. It's
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: the most unbelievable chutzpah ever. Let's go to Diane in Connecticut. Diane,
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: how are you doing?
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: I'm doing pretty good. I wanted to speak about James Carville.
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: I was watching him on a show last week. And
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: he was ranting and raving about how much he hates Trump.
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: He said, I hate him. I can't sleep at night
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: because of him. I can't eat. I'm losing weight. I
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: can't have any fun or whatever. I never saw such craziness.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: I know. They're like little children. They're like crazy little whining, pouty,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: pouty children. Like they won't go to bed unless.
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: You give them this. He should know better.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: I know. It's crazy. Listen, I didn't like Kamala Harris,
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: but it didn't keep me up at night. I wasn't
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: losing any sleep over it. I wasn't foaming at the mouth.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: I hated that Joe Biden is president. But I didn't
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: run around screaming about it all day. I didn't go
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: out in the street with a no kings or, in
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: his case, no zombies sign. They're just nuts. But they're
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: like children. It's just childish ranting and raving. Let's go
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: to Vincent in Brooklyn. Vincent, how are you doing?
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: Good morning mark mark i woke a he's speaking about
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: album break downgrading charges and the black community in hispanic
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: community should be incensed in fact today at the arraignment
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: of that dirty cop who shot the guy on the
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: bridge Alvin Bragg only charged him with manslaughter. That guy
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: should have been charged with murder too, reckless endangerment, reckless
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: discharging of a firearm, which Internal Affairs, before the guy retired,
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: after only seven years, they brought him up on a
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: reckless endangerment for discharging his firearm.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Vincent, you seem very familiar with the charging system here
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: in New York.
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I actually am very familiar. There's no way that
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: that cop should have been charged on the onset with manslaughter.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: And here's the reason why. Usually during the course of
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: a trial, depending on which way the trial's going, either
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: the DA or the defense attorney will say, hey, I'll
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: cop out to this. I'll plead out to that. You
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: don't start low so you could go lower. You start,
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: you charge them high, and then you work the charges down.
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: This cop could be out in three years. And knowing that,
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: the family is... planning a protest outside of Central Booking
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: in Manhattan today. That's mob stuff with this cop.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: But you would think a left-wing kook like Alvin Bragg
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: would overcharge a cop. You think he would hate cops?
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: Well, I guess he's trying to curry favor with the
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: police union and detectives union. But this guy is no
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: altar boy. He retired after seven years. That tells you
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: a lot because Internal Affairs probably told him, hey, We're
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: going to bring this case against you to court. Either
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: you quit now or we're going to court with this,
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: because why would the guy retire after seven years? And
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: this came out last week on W.O.Y. and other channels
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: that report the real news, not F.P.R. and those garbage stations.
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Well, Alvin Bragg, the worst district attorney in America. If
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: you get a new governor. He can remove Alvin Bragg.
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: That would be great. Well, let's hope it happens, Mark.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, go out and vote. Vincent, thanks for calling. Go
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: out and vote. Do the early voting. You can do
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: it this week. Hey, when we come back, the brilliant
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: columnist Liz Peek, we'll talk to her next on 710WOR.
