- 0:00Speaker 1: Mister New York Mark Simo on the Voice of New
- 0:04Speaker 1: York seven to w o R. Hey, it's right, ay,
- 0:11Speaker 1: a lot to get to this hour. We'll get to
- 0:14Speaker 1: We'll get to the national anthem, the Mets. It was disaster.
- 0:18Speaker 1: There have been some incidents through the years of people
- 0:20Speaker 1: trying to sing the national anthem, famous singers and screwing up.
- 0:23Speaker 1: But boy, that was a disaster yesterday. And we'll get
- 0:27Speaker 1: to Paul McCartney and a whole lot more. Hey, speaking
- 0:29Speaker 1: of a disaster. That crazy Don Lemon goes out on
- 0:34Speaker 1: you know, he's doing this out on the street kind
- 0:36Speaker 1: of thing, interviewing people. Don Lemon, formerly of CNN, now
- 0:40Speaker 1: fired one of these, you know, Megan Kelly, Tucker, Carlson
- 0:44Speaker 1: doing a show from his living room. So and it
- 0:49Speaker 1: looks you can build yourself a little set, but people
- 0:51Speaker 1: can see you're in your living room or you're in
- 0:53Speaker 1: your bedroom and your bottom half is still in your pajamas.
- 0:57Speaker 1: But he's been doing this, going out in the street
- 0:59Speaker 1: interviewing people looks a little better. So he's going out
- 1:02Speaker 1: there trying to get people to bad mouth the war,
- 1:06Speaker 1: the war in Iran. He goes out, what do you
- 1:08Speaker 1: think of the goona warner and once people all upset
- 1:10Speaker 1: about it. Well, he makes the mistake of stopping an Iranian,
- 1:14Speaker 1: a Persian in America. How do you feel about the war?
- 1:17Speaker 2: I'm Persian, so i'm I'm I support Donald Trump. One.
- 1:21Speaker 2: There's a lot of regime kills women. They killed fifty
- 1:25Speaker 2: thousand people in two days. A lot of them believe
- 1:28Speaker 2: death in all of Americans. So I'm I'm fully undred
- 1:32Speaker 2: percent sport Donald Trump.
- 1:35Speaker 1: Lemon looking a little stunned. Yeah, the problem is you
- 1:39Speaker 1: get these uh Trump haters. There's some of the right too.
- 1:43Speaker 1: You'll hear them say, uh, he hasn't explained why we're there.
- 1:47Speaker 1: He can he has not explained why we're there. Well,
- 1:49Speaker 1: I don't think anybody normal people really don't need an explanation.
- 1:53Speaker 1: It's the most evil regime in the world. It's a
- 1:56Speaker 1: threat to Israel, it's a threat to the Middle East,
- 1:58Speaker 1: it's a threat to us. They're behind terrorism. There are
- 2:02Speaker 1: the biggest terrorist sponsors in the world, from the Hoodies
- 2:04Speaker 1: to Hesbala to Hamas horrible, horrible, horrible terrorist state. They're
- 2:09Speaker 1: the most brutal regime, evil brutal regime on earth. If
- 2:14Speaker 1: you're gay. They shoot you on site. If you're a
- 2:16Speaker 1: woman and you don't wear a head covering, you get
- 2:18Speaker 1: shot if you protest, you know, talking about these no
- 2:23Speaker 1: Kings protests. If in Iran you go out and protest,
- 2:26Speaker 1: you will be shot in the street. And in the
- 2:29Speaker 1: last round, before we started the bombing, they went out
- 2:32Speaker 1: and shot a lot of protesters, only to find out
- 2:34Speaker 1: some of them didn't die, they were in the hospital.
- 2:38Speaker 1: This is absolutely true. So the Iranian Republican guard went
- 2:41Speaker 1: into the hospitals and there's these people in a hospital
- 2:45Speaker 1: bed with IVS and strapped in. They went into the
- 2:47Speaker 1: hospital and shot them right in the face. This is
- 2:50Speaker 1: this is who the Iranian government was. So it's not
- 2:54Speaker 1: that hard to figure out why we're there now. If
- 2:56Speaker 1: you watch President Trump, he's on the five yesterday and
- 2:58Speaker 1: even their kus why Maga bass is torn apart about this?
- 3:02Speaker 1: And isn't this against everything you stood for? Aren't you
- 3:07Speaker 1: supposed to be against foreign wars, foreign intervention? This isn't America. First, Yeah, well,
- 3:12Speaker 1: all that's true. But if you watch interviews with Donald
- 3:16Speaker 1: Trump for the last forty six years, he has said
- 3:21Speaker 1: over and over and over and over again that we
- 3:23Speaker 1: got to get rid of the iatola and get rid
- 3:25Speaker 1: of Iran. He's been saying that literally for forty six years.
- 3:30Speaker 1: Forty seven years ago, the Iranians took our Iotola took over,
- 3:34Speaker 1: they took Americans hostage, and about a year after that,
- 3:37Speaker 1: Trump started in on this. You can find an interview
- 3:39Speaker 1: from forty six years ago where he said he would
- 3:41Speaker 1: do this, and every year since he said he would
- 3:44Speaker 1: do this. Hate Tomorrow, believe it or not. What's tomorrow
- 3:49Speaker 1: twenty eighth, Saturday, March twenty eighth is No King's Day
- 3:55Speaker 1: and protesters will be all over the place with the
- 3:58Speaker 1: No Kings protest. Of course in the middle of New
- 4:00Speaker 1: York and other major cities, but even if you're way
- 4:03Speaker 1: out in the middle of nowhere in Connecticut, middle of nowhere,
- 4:06Speaker 1: in Vermont, there will be No Kings protests. I don't
- 4:11Speaker 1: know what the hell they're protesting. I don't know what
- 4:14Speaker 1: king they're talking about. I could see if you were
- 4:18Speaker 1: in England having a No King's protest, although they kind
- 4:20Speaker 1: of like that King. But they're back at it again.
- 4:25Speaker 1: But you could make fun of how silly the thing is.
- 4:28Speaker 1: No Kings, but it's left wing Democrats. They need a
- 4:31Speaker 1: chance to go out in the street, wave signs, yell
- 4:35Speaker 1: and scream and it looks good on TV. It looks
- 4:38Speaker 1: like people hate Trump. And that's the whole point. Just
- 4:41Speaker 1: make it look like everybody hates Trump. Although if you
- 4:43Speaker 1: watch these No Kings protests, they don't look like your neighbors,
- 4:47Speaker 1: they don't look like the people you work with. They
- 4:49Speaker 1: look like a bunch of wackos, the nosering crowd, the
- 4:52Speaker 1: green haired nosering crowd out there yelling and screaming. So
- 4:57Speaker 1: that's the whole point. Make make Donald Trump look like
- 5:00Speaker 1: everything he's talking about is just wrong. The idea that
- 5:03Speaker 1: you would have to show identification to vote, what this
- 5:08Speaker 1: sounds insane to them. Now, remember if the illegals were
- 5:12Speaker 1: all voting, Republican Democrats would be demanding photo ID, fingerprints,
- 5:17Speaker 1: DNA scan just to vote. So if you want to
- 5:21Speaker 1: get have you gotten one of those enhanced driver's licenses?
- 5:23Speaker 1: You know, when you can get your regular New York
- 5:25Speaker 1: state driver's license or any state, you can now get
- 5:28Speaker 1: the enhanced license or you can get the real ID.
- 5:31Speaker 1: When you got one of those kind of licenses, you
- 5:34Speaker 1: can use that in the airport. It gets you through faster.
- 5:38Speaker 1: Some countries you can go into without a passport, just
- 5:40Speaker 1: with that real ID going to Canada, Mexico without a passport.
- 5:45Speaker 1: But to get one you got to show some stuff.
- 5:50Speaker 1: You got to show a passport, You got to show
- 5:51Speaker 1: a birth certificate. Now all over the Democrats, all over
- 5:55Speaker 1: television are trying to say this is ridiculous, It is
- 5:58Speaker 1: voter suppression because nobody can get a birth certificate. Most
- 6:01Speaker 1: people wouldn't even know where their birth certificate is. Even
- 6:04Speaker 1: this crazy Mika Brazinski looks into the cameras, I don't
- 6:08Speaker 1: know where my birth certificate is. I can't vote. I
- 6:10Speaker 1: could well, I'm trying to think. I think I know
- 6:14Speaker 1: where my birth certificate is. But even if you lost it,
- 6:17Speaker 1: even if you haven't seen it in a million years,
- 6:19Speaker 1: you can get a replacement birth certificate. It takes a
- 6:22Speaker 1: couple of seconds. You can go to the Social Security
- 6:25Speaker 1: Office website, or there's like twenty five private companies you
- 6:30Speaker 1: can go. Just all you gotta do is Google replacement
- 6:33Speaker 1: birth certificate. It'll take you to a million sites. You
- 6:36Speaker 1: don't have to pay a few bucks, not a lot.
- 6:38Speaker 1: You've got to pay a few bucks, type in your information.
- 6:40Speaker 1: It will get you a replacement birth certificate from your
- 6:44Speaker 1: home state. It might take a week to show up,
- 6:47Speaker 1: but it's very easy to do. You can get a
- 6:51Speaker 1: birth certificate, a replacement Bersuti given in the second But
- 6:53Speaker 1: listen to this montage of these democrats all over television.
- 6:56Speaker 1: Do you know where your birth certificate is? Definitely not.
- 6:59Speaker 1: I do not minds in a lock box in the
- 7:01Speaker 1: Save Act. You know what the Save Act would do
- 7:03Speaker 1: require that people show a birth certificate. We cannot know
- 7:07Speaker 1: where her original birth is, which under the Save Act
- 7:11Speaker 1: would get her kicked off the butters rolls. If I
- 7:14Speaker 1: said do you know where your birth certificate is? I
- 7:16Speaker 1: think most people would say no, idea, I don't know. Again,
- 7:21Speaker 1: to get that real ID, you got to bring in
- 7:23Speaker 1: your birth certificate. People are getting them all the time.
- 7:25Speaker 1: If you go to get your real ID, you'll notice
- 7:27Speaker 1: there's a line, a big long line of people with
- 7:30Speaker 1: a birth certificate in their hand. Hey, that's Savannah Guthrie.
- 7:35Speaker 1: Stuff boy. If you watched the NBC Nightly News last
- 7:39Speaker 1: night they interviewed it was Hoda Kotti interviewing Savannah Guthrie.
- 7:43Speaker 1: Obviously she just breaks down and cries and it's NBC.
- 7:48Speaker 1: I mean she's really really really crying, I mean really emotional.
- 7:53Speaker 1: It's very tough to watch talking about her mother. So
- 7:57Speaker 1: if you're NBC, you say to yourself when you look
- 8:01Speaker 1: at this in and you say, now, how could we
- 8:02Speaker 1: exploit this to the full maximum? Mind? What's the most
- 8:05Speaker 1: we could exploit this? Well, you break it into two parts,
- 8:09Speaker 1: so you get Thursday and Friday on the Today Show.
- 8:12Speaker 1: That way you get two days of big ratings. And
- 8:15Speaker 1: then you say to yourself, let's run it on the
- 8:17Speaker 1: NBC Nightly News. Not a clip, not a one minute clip,
- 8:21Speaker 1: Let's run it for fifteen minutes in the middle. So
- 8:24Speaker 1: they did run it for fifteen minutes and the Nightly
- 8:27Speaker 1: News last night. It is gut wrenching. You can't watch
- 8:29Speaker 1: it without crying. When she breaks down about her and
- 8:33Speaker 1: then she starts talking about she starts talking about when
- 8:37Speaker 1: they think it might have been my fault because I
- 8:40Speaker 1: was well known and they thought, well, she's famous, she
- 8:43Speaker 1: has money, let's get her mother. She was. I think
- 8:46Speaker 1: that my mother was kidnapped because of me. She was.
- 8:49Speaker 1: I just can't live with that. It's really powerful moving,
- 8:53Speaker 1: but NBC really exploiting the hell out of this. Now,
- 8:57Speaker 1: where is the mother. It's two months now. She's on
- 9:01Speaker 1: blood pressure medicine, heart medicine, she's got a pacemaker, SE's
- 9:05Speaker 1: on all kinds of medication. She can barely walk. Savannah
- 9:09Speaker 1: go through, revealing she most days couldn't even walk down
- 9:11Speaker 1: to her mailbox. So you can without the medicine. If
- 9:18Speaker 1: you need all that medicine, heart, blood pressure or cholesterol. Yeah,
- 9:21Speaker 1: you could go a bunch of weeks without it. But
- 9:25Speaker 1: it's doubtful that she's still alive. So she said that
- 9:30Speaker 1: they got lots of ransom notes. Most of them were fake,
- 9:33Speaker 1: but there's two that they believe were authentic. So why
- 9:36Speaker 1: didn't they, I mean, obviously would have paid the ransom.
- 9:39Speaker 1: Why didn't the kidnappers follow up, collect the ransom and
- 9:42Speaker 1: then release the mother or say where she is. Well,
- 9:46Speaker 1: all you can do is speculate. All you can do
- 9:48Speaker 1: is guess. I don't know. I mean, maybe she died
- 9:53Speaker 1: and they decided there was no point in continuing the kidnappers.
- 9:58Speaker 1: But even if she had died, he could still collect
- 10:00Speaker 1: the money. I think if I had a guess, I'd
- 10:04Speaker 1: say there's two problems. Problem Number one, they were going
- 10:08Speaker 1: to get the payment in crypto and all over the
- 10:12Speaker 1: news when this came out, they kept saying they'll be
- 10:14Speaker 1: able to trace them through the cryptocurrency. You can track
- 10:18Speaker 1: down crypto currency. Now I never knew that. We always
- 10:21Speaker 1: assume that if you go crypto it's totally anonymous, they
- 10:25Speaker 1: can't find you. But not only to say all over
- 10:27Speaker 1: the news, you can be tracked through the crypto, but
- 10:29Speaker 1: they said there have been many sick cases where they've
- 10:32Speaker 1: cracked the case by tracking the crypto. So that might
- 10:36Speaker 1: have scared off the kidnappers. That might have ended the plan.
- 10:40Speaker 1: Now could also be the Frank Sinatra theory. Here. You know,
- 10:46Speaker 1: in nineteen sixty three, these two kidnappers in La they
- 10:50Speaker 1: decided they would kidnap the son of somebody famous and
- 10:54Speaker 1: get millions in ransom. And they decided on Bob Hope,
- 10:58Speaker 1: who was the most.
- 11:00Speaker 2: Minute sixty three.
- 11:02Speaker 1: Look at this. My stupid Siri goes off, How did
- 11:04Speaker 1: that happen? It's telling me about Frank Sinatra Junior. I
- 11:07Speaker 1: don't need you, Siri to tell me about it. So,
- 11:09Speaker 1: but anyway, they're going to kidnap Bob Hope's kids. That
- 11:12Speaker 1: didn't work out. Then they looked at Frank Sinatra and
- 11:14Speaker 1: it turned out his son was trying to be a
- 11:16Speaker 1: singer and he wasn't in the big leagues yet. He
- 11:19Speaker 1: was traveling around touring, and touring meant smaller towns and
- 11:23Speaker 1: he would stay at small motels. Easy to kidnap somebody
- 11:26Speaker 1: out of a small motel, so that's how they did it.
- 11:29Speaker 1: They grabbed him in his hotel room, and they kidnapped
- 11:31Speaker 1: Frank Sinatra Junior in nineteen sixty three, and they were
- 11:35Speaker 1: going to get up millions in ransom, but they didn't
- 11:39Speaker 1: calculate it correctly, because first of all, it's Frank Sinatra.
- 11:43Speaker 1: All of a sudden, they're hearing in the news that
- 11:44Speaker 1: the entire American mafia is hunting for them. Now, that's
- 11:49Speaker 1: a scary thought. And even though Sinatra and Robert Kennedy
- 11:54Speaker 1: were estranged, Kennedy called him immediately. He was then the
- 11:57Speaker 1: Attorney General f Kennedy said, the entire FBI is on this.
- 12:03Speaker 1: I'm personally supervising the whole thing. We'll find him. So
- 12:07Speaker 1: now you're the kidnappers, you'll find out the entire American
- 12:10Speaker 1: mafia is hunting you, and the Attorney General himself and
- 12:15Speaker 1: the entire Justice Department FBI are after you. So the
- 12:18Speaker 1: kidnappers panicked, they decided to just abandon this whole thing,
- 12:23Speaker 1: that this was too dangerous now, so they just drove
- 12:27Speaker 1: Frank Sinatra Junior somewhere, let him out of the car.
- 12:29Speaker 1: I think it was in somewhere in a park or
- 12:32Speaker 1: wooded area. They let him out. He wanted around a
- 12:35Speaker 1: couple of blocks, found a security guard for something, and
- 12:40Speaker 1: the guard drove him back home. But they just got
- 12:42Speaker 1: scared when they found out who was hunting for them.
- 12:44Speaker 1: So it could have been the same thing here with
- 12:47Speaker 1: Savannah Guthrie. You figure, you'll kidnap the mother, you'll contact her,
- 12:52Speaker 1: you'll get the money, and that's now everything changes. It's
- 12:55Speaker 1: suddenly the number one story in the news. It's on
- 12:57Speaker 1: the news twenty four to seven. You find out the
- 13:01Speaker 1: FBI is in town hunting for you. And then remember
- 13:03Speaker 1: the President of the United States is on television saying,
- 13:06Speaker 1: I personally am gonna find her. I'm going to put
- 13:10Speaker 1: all my resources and all my people on it. Well,
- 13:12Speaker 1: they might have panicked and just abandoned the whole thing. Now.
- 13:16Speaker 1: In the case of Frank Sinatra Junior, he was like
- 13:19Speaker 1: twenty four years old and very healthy and was able
- 13:21Speaker 1: to get away, but the mother of Savannah Gotrie, not healthy,
- 13:27Speaker 1: would not be able to get in. Probably, if I
- 13:29Speaker 1: had a guest, probably died in the hands of the
- 13:31Speaker 1: kidnappers and they just panicked, realized it's too dangerous, try
- 13:36Speaker 1: to collect the money. There have been kidnappings where the
- 13:39Speaker 1: person just never ever was found. Jimmy Hoffe is a
- 13:43Speaker 1: famous example. Back in the thirties, there was Judge Crater,
- 13:47Speaker 1: famous judge in New York, who was just gone. It's
- 13:52Speaker 1: one hundred years later, we still don't know what happened
- 13:54Speaker 1: to him. There was Aton Pates. Now they did find him,
- 13:57Speaker 1: but it was about thirty five forty years later, so
- 14:00Speaker 1: who knows. Who knows? Hey, the people in the Assembly,
- 14:05Speaker 1: these crazy left wing cooks, they're still pushing this bill
- 14:08Speaker 1: now that all lights in New York have to go
- 14:11Speaker 1: off at eleven o'clock. The lights inside your house are okay,
- 14:14Speaker 1: but all building lights all outside. This is absolutely ridiculous.
- 14:18Speaker 1: Your job is service. Take care of the potholes, run
- 14:22Speaker 1: the police. That's it's a service job. Stop telling us
- 14:26Speaker 1: how to run our lives. Oh, this just breaking, Jill Biden,
- 14:32Speaker 1: is you know it's got secret service protection. Former president,
- 14:36Speaker 1: former President's wife. She was going through Philadelphia International Airport
- 14:40Speaker 1: with her Secret Service detail. Shots fired, big alarm goes out. Well,
- 14:46Speaker 1: they find out the Secret Service agent shot himself in
- 14:51Speaker 1: the leg. Now Secret Service, ever since Butler, Pennsylvania, everybody's
- 14:57Speaker 1: been looking at them as if they're not the old
- 14:59Speaker 1: secret This is a bungling, messed up version of the
- 15:03Speaker 1: Secret Service. It turns out the police were there everything.
- 15:06Speaker 1: It looks like the agent accidentally shot himself in the leg.
- 15:10Speaker 1: This is usually something only happens with a dumb football
- 15:13Speaker 1: player and a nightclub accidentally shooting yourself in the leg,
- 15:16Speaker 1: But it looks like a Secret Service agent did it. Hey, Well,
- 15:19Speaker 1: take some calls. Next eight hundred three two one zero
- 15:22Speaker 1: seven ten is the number. Give me a call. Eight
- 15:25Speaker 1: hundred three two one zero seven ten
