  Speaker 1: Now sevenor Presents no Mark sim own Shaw. Hey, another
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: beautiful sunny day. It's Thursday. We've got a lot to
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: get to bring you all the latest on Iran, the talks.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: We'll get to the Gilgo Beach lunatic and what happened there.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: We'll get to Artemis, the space capsule coming down tomorrow.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: We'll get to the Master's mom. Donnie Hockel getting booed
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: like crazy. Al Sharpton having his big convention right now
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: as we speak over there, but blocking two blocks away
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: at the Sheraton. So we'll also get to some of
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: the crazy, crazy left wing rants that are These are
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: all people, you know, very prominent left wing Hollywood types,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: melting down on Twitter, going absolutely nuts. Now the talks
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: are about to take place. Vice President Vance will be there.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: Iran has agreed to talk for a couple of reasons. One,
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: they see that militarily they are going to get wiped out.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: He could just wipe them off the face of the
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: earth Donald Trump at any point. So they've realized that. Also,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: as we keep telling you, we don't use the Straits
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: of Hormus for anything. This country doesn't need anything from
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: the straits of Hormus. We don't use that oil, but
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: China is heavily dependent on that oil, as is Japan,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: as is India, but especially China. And if there's anybody
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: that Iran actually listens to, it's China, and China apparently
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: has pressured them like crazy to have these talks and
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: come up with some sort of resolution of all of this,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: so they will talk. Straits of Hormus are supposed to
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: reopen as the talks begin. Now. In normal times, one
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: hundred ships a day, one hundred tankers, hundred ships a
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: day come through the Straits of Hormus. Yesterday four we're
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: allowed through, so it is open, but only four went
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: through today. They claim they'll get twelve ships through the
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Straits of Horror moves, so it is sly opening, but
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: there's because of the enclosure for the last couple of weeks,
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: there's a backup of about two hundred and fifty tankers
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: waiting to come through, so it'll be a while to
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: get that cleaned up. Now, the talks, well, that's interesting.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: First of all, Iran, they're all the leaders are absolute
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: raging lunatics, absolute terrorist nutsjobs, so obviously very tough to negotiate.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: With now the leaders that will show up for the talks,
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: the head of the Republican Guard, the head of this,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: the head of that. They'll be there for the talks.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Our guys will be mostly business guys, Steve Witkoff, those types.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: So it's an interesting psychological mix because on the Iranian
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: side you got basically rug merchants. I mean this literally,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: head of the Republican Guard and a couple of the
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: others started life as rug merchants in a bizarre then
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: went into government. And on the American side you got
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: the Steve Wickcoff types, business guys, but really New York
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: real estate guys. And now both these types ferocious negotiators,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: the rug merchants obviously, if you've ever been in a
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: bazaar and tried to negotiate with them, it's tough. And
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: New York real estate guys, it's tough. So which style
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: will win this, I don't know. Whenever you have a ceasefire,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: there's always a lot of bumps, especially the first few days.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: So it's always rocky the first few days, and that's
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: the case here. Yesterday, despite the ceasefire, Israel striking Hesbelah
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: in Lebanon. Now here's The catch to this Israel. So
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: they're not going to stop going after Hesbelo. They took
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: out some leadership yesterday. They say they will continue to
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: attack Hesbela in Lebanon with determination, precision. And here's the problem.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: Iran in the talks is claiming they have nothing to
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: do with Hezbela, no connection. Of course they do. They
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: fund has Bela, they direct Hesblah, but they're claiming to
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: have nothing to do with them. So how can they
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: make that an issue if they claim it has nothing
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: to do with them. The real reason to go after
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Iran obviously number one, and this has been made clear
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: over and over again, despite what the fake news will
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: tell you. Number One, stop them from having a nuclear weapon.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: They've gotten pretty close. Stop them from having a nuclear weapon.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: And then stop them from being the biggest supporters of
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: terrorism in the world. Hes Belah, the hoodies Hamas supporting
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: terrorism all over the place. So that's going to have
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: to come out in all of this, their connection to
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: Hesbelah and the other terrorist groups. So the negotiations will
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: take place throughout the weekend. We'll see what happens. Now
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: does the question is we kind of understand the Iranians' mentality,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: the leaders over there, their lunacy, But do they really
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: understand President Trump. Now, you can argue he's been confusing
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: and his messaging. President Trump's been contradictory, confusing, hard to well,
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: that's deliberate, that's deliberate. He totally wants to confuse the
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: enemy so they have no idea what he's going to do.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: And he's been using that what the Nixon called the
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: madman theory, where you act like you're completely insane, completely nuts,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: you might blow them all up just to scare them. Now,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: the problem with the Madman strategy it does work on
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: the enemy, but it's very unpopular among the domestic populations.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: So while it'll work in the negotiation, it's kind of
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: screwing you up with the public a little. Now. The
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: other thing is, if the Iranians were really, really, really smart,
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: and I don't think they are that smart, they're just nuts,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: they would all have gotten copies of the book The
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Art of the Deal, Donald Trump's first book, which, by
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: the way, if you haven't read it, or you haven't
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: looked at it in twenty five years, get the book
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: and read it again. It's fascinating. But book The Art
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: of the Deal explains in precise detail how he negotiates.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: If they're smart, they've been going through that book carefully
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: and getting ready for this strategy wise, so we'll see
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: what happens. These left wing people are going nuts now
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: when the President tweeted that famous tweet about We're going
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: to wipe out We'll wipe you out. It will be
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: end of your civilization. We're going to wipe your whole
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: civilization off the earth. You're not supposed to talk like
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: that as a president. You're never supposed to say anything
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: like that. But it's Donald Trump. He's not a professional politician,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: got no filter. And if you read the book The
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: Art of the Deal, that's how you start a negotiation.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: You take the most extreme, unbelievable, crazy, extreme position. That's
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: where you start a negotiation. You know how when you're
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: negotiating money, you ask for more than you think you
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: can get. You start high, you know, because you know
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: it's going to come down Trump, you start like through
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: the roof high. So that's why that crazy thing, but
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: it's set off a lot of liberals. There's another one,
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: Michael Moore, Remember Michael Moore, the disheveled Michael Moore. So
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: here he is on I guess he doesn't tweet anymore.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: He's now on substack, but his substack tweet. He's going nuts, saying,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: knelling and screaming. The US are the bad guys. We're
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: the terrorists Iran or the good guys. They go nuts.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: These people Iran or the good guys. They're the greatest
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: civilization in the world. They've given us everything. Here's what
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: he's actually talking about. There is some truth to a
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: great civilization. But he's talking about the Persians who all
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: got wiped out. You know, in the revolution in nineteen
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: seventy nine. They all had to flee and leave. That
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: was the Persians. It was a great culture, you know.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: Before the Ayatola took over in nineteen seventy nine, Iran,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: believe it or not, was a spectacular place. It was
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: a very cosmopolitan, booming, economic kind of place. Tehran at
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: the time was the Paris of the Middle East. It
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: was magnificent. Then the Ayatola takes over, the Shaw flee's
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: all the Shaws people, many of the Persians leave at
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: the same time. They all come here and if you've
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: followed them in this country, they're all over Long Island.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: They're all over New Jersey. They're brilliant, they're very successful
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: people there again they're great, But that's the Persians. Now,
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: Iran gets taken over by the Ayatola and all the
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: crazy fundamentalist lunatic fanatics and they destroy the whole place again.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: It had been the Paris of the Middle East, and
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: then it became an absolute hellhole nightmare. So that's the
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: other thing the president's hoping to achieve, to get the
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: old group back in charge and maybe even change the
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: name or the name Iran. It's like the name Columbia University.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: It's so tainted. Maybe call it Persia again. Get the
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Persians back, and they'll build that country back up into
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: something magnificent all over again. So we'll see what happens.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: The other fight will be about the Straits of hor Moose.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Iran is this is all just bargaining. Wants to put
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: a toll on the straits of our moose, you got
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: to pay them to use it. That's not unusual. We
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: do that all over the world. You know, if you
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: want to go through the Panama Canal, if you want
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: to bring your ship through the Panama Canal, you got
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: to pay a toll, it's like three hundred thousand dollars.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: And if it's a large, large tanker, the tolls a
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: million dollars. Pay that just to use the Panama Canal. Now,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: the argument is that's a canal that was built. It's
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: a canal somebody built, and now they're going to charge
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: you to use it. Straits of Horn Moose is open waters.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Nobody owns it. It's open seas, so you can't charge
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: for that. President Trump counting, if there's going to be
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: a toll, it's got to be split with the US
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: fifty to fifty. And again this is all just bargaining,
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: all just negotiating. But we'll keep you on top of
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: the whole thing. So the Gilgo Beach murderer yesterday, Rex Humeerman,
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: pleads guilty. The families of the victims were in the courtroom.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: According to his attorney, there are a number of reasons
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: to plead guilty. One, he lost all the crucial rulings
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: in the last few weeks. Court rulings, you know, like
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: keeping the DNA out. Everything went against him. Every single ruling.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: The judges allowed the DNA to be used. All the
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: evidence can be used, so there was absolutely no chance
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: of beating the charges. It was one hundred percent that
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: he would be convicted. So that's one reason to plead guilty.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: The other reason he didn't want to put his family
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: through the hell of a trial. And the other reason
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: is the victims in their family. Even though he had
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: to admit in court yesterday strangled strangling them and there
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: were gasps every time he admitted to strangling one of them.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: But if it had gone to trial, they would have
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: had to go into graphic detail, show the pictures, testimony
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: in exact detail about what he did. So he didn't
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: want to put everybody through that. He's going to get
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: three life sentences. He'll be sentenced in June. He is
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: sixty two years old, sow much longer. Does he have
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: what thirty forty thirty five at the most thirty five years,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: But he's in bad, bad shape, bad health, So be
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: lucky if he has twenty years left. But he's got
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: three life sentences, absolutely no chance of parole. He's also
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: made a deal with the government that he will cooperate
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: in They have some division of the federal government that
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: studies lunatics, studies psychokillers. It's the behavioral analysis unit. He
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: will fully cooperate with them, sit down with them for
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: endless interviews where they will try to examine his brain
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: by talking to him, and they'll try to figure out
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: what caused him to be a psycho killer. Now they've
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: done this before with other serial killers. They've been doing
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: this for years. It's the government and it's a bunch
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: of eggheads. And as you can imagine, so far they
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: figured out nothing. They haven't prevented anything else but nothing
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: you could prevent. But maybe they're looking for clues as
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: to how you can spot these guys. But so far,
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: from years of doing this, it hasn't amounted to anything practical.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: But they will talk to him over and over again.
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: I guess he says he wants to do this, wants
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: to find out why he's a psychomaniac. I don't know.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's hard to analyze this guy. You know.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: You sometimes you see these psycho killers, these serial killers,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: and then you see him and it's a nerdy little
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: kid with glasses. At least this guy looks like a psychomaniac.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: I mean, if you just saw this guy walking on
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: the street, you'd cross and walk on the other side.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: He looks like an absolute raging psycho, so he'll cooperate
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: with that. June seventeenth, he'll get sentenced, and he's in
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: Suffolk County Jail right now. But after the sentence, I
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: assume he'll be moved to a serious, serious prison. Hey,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: in Los Angeles yesterday they spotted Joe Biden. Apparently he
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: and the family were in California, central coast of California
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: for some sort of family easter, but now here. They
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: came down to the LA Area to go to Giorgio Baldi,
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: which is a celebrity favorite hangout. Scott Miller, he's the
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: former ambassador of Switzerland. He had been appointed by Biden.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: Miller has a husband who's LGBTQ plus activist. I still
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: don't know what the plus is were, but this is
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: a perfect dinner for Biden. Lgbtqg vang something activist. So
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: the two of them go dinner with Joe and Jill Biden.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: They're in the restaurant. Diners watched the whole night and
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: said that Joe seemed to be completely out of it.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: They're having dinner for a couple hours and everybody's talking,
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: but Joe said nothing no comforts, just his head down,
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: seemed completely out of it. Later, a birthday cake came
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: out for somebody else and people were singing Happy Birthday.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: They said, Joe joined in and started singing. Now that's
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: always the case with these Alzheimer'rie typed Joe Biden. You know,
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: when you're in that condition, the only thing you respond
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: to is like childlike stuff like singing happy birthday. But
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: they said he just looked terrible, looked absolutely terrible, walking
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: very slow. Secret Service were in the restaurant, but they're
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: very good the Secret Service. When they're in the restaurant,
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: you really don't even see them. They know how to
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: disappear into the background. But the streets outside the restaurant
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: packed with cops. I think one thing you don't have
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: to worry about with Joe Biden. I think that's an
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: easy protection detail. You know, if it's Donald Trump or
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: anybody like that, you can imagine the threats you have
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: to protect against. But Joe Biden, who the hell's going
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: to go after Joe Biden? Absolutely nobody look at this guy,
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: can't get anybody to talk to him. You know, normally
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: when you're the ex president, you're having dinner with your
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: vice president. The treasury receipt of this. Here he's having
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: dinner with the ambassador to Switzerland, and nobody knows even
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: trying to build a presidential library. He's the first ex
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: president in history who can't get a presidential library. He
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: can't get a single donor to give him anything, even
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: to the big, big money Democratic donors. He's considered totally worthless.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: Can't get any donations. So there's no hope of a
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: presidential library. So he's making a deal now with that.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: I think it's the University of Delaware, some university for
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: them to take one of their buildings and call it
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: a Joe Biden presidential library because they got no hope
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: of actually building one. Hey, we'll take some calls in
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: a minute. Eight hundred three to two one zero seven
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: to ten is the number. I was going to take
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: a break, But there's no engineering there. What happened? Where'd
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: crash go? Anybody in that control room? I'm looking in there.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: There's nobody there. Can you do the break? Oh? Wit wait,
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: I think I see crash coming. Is he there? There?
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: He is? Oh no, that's Natalie. Can you do the break?
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: You think? Let's see eight hundred three two one zero
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: seven ten
