  Speaker 1: good Monday morning. But you gotta be tired. That was
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: a long day yesterday.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: Good morning, Mayor. Now I'm feeling good. I'm feeling strong,
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: ready to get back to work.
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: I can tell man you one. Thank you for the
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: mayor comment. I love that people go you do that,
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: they go nuts. But you did have a long day.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: You had the parade yesterday, and then I believe you
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: went to some synagogue and then I know you spoke
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: last night for Matt Brooks and my cousin Norm Coleman
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: at the ORJC.
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: So what time did this day eventually end?
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Yesterday we finished Let's see. Uh probably got to bed
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: last night about eleven thirty. That's an early night. So
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: got up early this morning, checking my emails, my text messages,
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: and getting ready for a fun interview with my favorite guy,
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: sid Rosenberg. Thank you.
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: What is Yeah?
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: By the way, listen, I think that you and Spike
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: Lee on a private plane together might be more entertaining
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: than the nick games.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: I know people have already said to Keith if this
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: happens you got to make sure you take video. Ben
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: Stiller is not exactly a big fan of mine either,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: just see, you know, Bruce.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: So between me, Spike.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: And Ben, that can make for very entertaining four hours
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: coming up on wednesdaytape. I know, I know, you know.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: All I kept thinking, I will, I promise, only kept
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: thinking to it.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: That's funny.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: Yesterday was here's Bruce Blakeman. Now you don't got to
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: be Jewish, Okay. There are plenty of non Jews Christians,
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: as you know, Bruce, who love the Jewish people, who
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: love the State of Israel. And I say this all
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: the time. If we're ever gonna win the anti Semitism war,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: and we're nowhere close to winning it in New York
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: because we've got a terrorist sympathizer as the mayor, We're
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: not coming close in New York.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: But I'm gonna win.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: We need the help of the Christian people. So this
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: is not about just being Jewish. But when I look
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: at you, a Jewish man, not uprade to her, a
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: yamaka in the street, standing outside of Columbia University with me,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: when Eric Adams went to Rome, and then I look
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: at Kathy Hulkel and I'm trying to figure out one thing.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: One thing she's done, not even providing a bupper zone,
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: one thing she's done to protect Jewish people. And she's
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: walking up and down Fifth Avenue thumb up and smiling
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: and getting cheers from the crowd. You tell me, what
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: has Kathy Hulkel done forget about Mamdani. What is the
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: governor done in this state to make lives better and
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: safer for the Jewish people that she deserved to be
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: celebrated or celebrating yesterday?
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Well, the answer is nothing. She basically stabbed them in
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: the back by endorsing Mandami, and then Mandami endorsed her,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: So you know they've got a private little deal going
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: between the two of them. But you know, the interesting
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: thing said is wherever I go in New York State,
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: people are miserable under Kafe Hockl. They could be Jewish,
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: they could be Christian, male, female, every race, religion, ethnic group,
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: every lifestyle, every person of whatever ability they may have.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: They are miserable under Kathy Hockel because we are the
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: most overtaxed state in the United States. Are utility those
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: are ninety percent excuse me, seventy percent higher than the
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: national average. That's obscene, and she hasn't done anything to
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: help anybody in any corner of the state because she
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: doesn't know what she's doing, she doesn't have any core values.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: And now she's allied with somebody who is an anti semit,
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: somebody who has anti American values, somebody who basically espouses
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Communist principles that are antithetical to everything that we were
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: taught growing up that made America the greatest economic power
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: in the history of the world. I just can't understand
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: anybody that would support her, But I can tell you
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: right now, people are miserable under Kathy Hokeel, and I
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: feel very, very confident we are going to win this
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: race because we have solutions people's everyday problems. They want
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: it more affordable and they want it more safe than
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: their communities.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: I saw yesterday every time they interviewed you, there was
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: like seven or eight people with these hocal signs making
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: sure they got in the view of the camera or
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: the photo.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: I think Daniellis Firth want to say, this is how
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: sick Kathy Hokle is think about this. Bruce Okay, she
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: wants to take the masks off of ice agents when
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: we know already that ICE agents have been killed. Forget
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: about Preddie and Gordon Minnesota. They've killed ICE agents in
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: states around the country. Others have been stalked. So she
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: wants to take the masks off of law enforcement ICE agents,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: but she has no issue leaving the masks on the
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: pro Hamas radical Islam animals that terrorize innocent Jewish people
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: every day. Now, you guys, you and Monsie Pellop in
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: National County, you got the mask taken off, So leave
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: the masks on pro Hamas. Take them off ICE is
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: not all you need to know.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: She is the most pro criminal governor in the United
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: States of America. Every criminal justice law that's passed is
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: pro criminal, anti victim, anti safe neighborhoods. Kathy Hoker would
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: raise the age, cashless bail, the whole deck. And now
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: with the masks and now wanting to kick ICE out
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: of our state. She is creating an atmosphere where criminals
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: are running rampant. It's a revolving door of justice. Police
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: officers are getting frustrated because they're locking up people over
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: and over again and there's no consequences for these criminals.
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: It's getting out of control. And you're absolutely right. She
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: is so hypocritical. She will allow somebody to wear a
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: mask go into a bank and rob it, but she
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: won't let an ICE agent who needs to be undercover,
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: who is involved in sensitive work. And by the way,
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: it's not just ICE agents, it's undercovered narcotics detectives, it's
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: anti terrorism units. They need to wear masks. So she
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: is so pro criminal and so anti law enforcement that
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: that's one of the reasons why I know I'm going
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: to win, because people have common sense and they know
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: that she will not keep them safer, but I will
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: keep your children and your grandchildren safe.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Bottom line is, Bruce Blakeman, You're going to keep, like
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: you just said, your children and your grandchildren safe.
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: You're going to make sure that they don't raise.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: Taxes in this state. She says they're not going to.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: She's a liar. If she wins, God forbid, she's not
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: going to. But if she wins, God forbid, we will
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: do whatever ma'm donnie wants. She's a dog on a leish. Basically,
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: ma'm donnie has like a dog on a leash. And
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: then of course she doesn't care about these law enforcements.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: And then maybe as brutal as all of it is
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: green energy. We are loaded with it in the state
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: of New York. Now, this was a predecessor. Andrew Cuomo
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: also yucking up with the crowd yesterday. And I got
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: to know Andrew quite a bit when he ran. He
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: was on this show and we had many lunches together.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: He's a charming guy when you meet him, he's a
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: very nice guy. He's a charming guy. But the truth
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: is he destroyed this state. He destroyed it with I
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: don't know seven or eight different policies that she's held
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: on to this Kathy Hokeel, like Donald Trump says all
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: the time, Bruce Blakeman and up with the windmills and
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: all that nonsense, Drill baby drill. When Bruce Blakeman becomes
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: governor in New York, those that's saying right there, drill
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: baby drill, that's gonna happen.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely. It's bizarre that we sit on one of
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: the largest natural gas reserves in the world. It's on
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: the border of Pennsylvania. They share that reserve with us.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: We are buying our gas from Pennsylvania. I mean, it's
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: not just a question of being pro green energy. This
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: is insane. She is allowing New York to buy gas
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: from Pennsylvania, but not allowing people in New York to
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: drill in the same natural gas reserve, which we create
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: prosperity in our state, which would increase supply, which would
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: bring down prices. It's just it's just so wrongheaded that
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: I will change that. We will drill, baby, drill. We
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: will bring prosperity to our state. We will bring down
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: utility bills. We will make it more affordable so people
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: can actually live here. They will get better jobs, they
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: will get higher paying jobs and better benefits. And you
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: could say whatever you want about Andrew Cuomo, but Andrew
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: Cuomo never would have tolerated Zo run Mundami. And Andrew
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: Kwomo wouldn't have let Zo run Mundami lead him around
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: like you said on a leash.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: No that I agree with. No, he would not. No,
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: she's you know, she's a cuckold at this point.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: I do have one about Nassau County though, because you're
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: doing a great job Bunny Nutt County as well. And
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: there was a story last week, and I see this
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: in New Jersey quite a bit, especially this time of
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: year Memorial Day weekend. For some reason they go berserk
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: and all these you know, Long Branch and all these
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: beach towns, and it looked like Bayville had a huge
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: issue last week. What's the deal with these wilding kids
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: in Bayville?
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: Yes, So, now with social media and the Internet, these
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: guys who want to create all of these problems in
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: various communities, they get a hold of a lot of
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: rabble rousers on the Internet and they say, let's go
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: meet at this place and let's go crazy. And the
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: good news is that our police department monitors the Internet.
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: We monitor all of the social media and we either
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: stop it before it happens, or we stop it very quickly.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: So it goes on throughout the United States, but we
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: don't tolerate it in Nasa County. They also do it
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: with cars. They'll have like car rallies. We want to
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: race through a community, we find out about it, we
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: have the police stare, we impound their cars. We just
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: take their cars.
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah I love that.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah that happened in Queens and Palladinos District a couple
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: of weeks ago. But I know what pat Ryder in charge. Hey,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: last thing and then we'll let you wonder. You got
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: to busity ahead of you. I did see Michael Petrie
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: at the parade yesterday, got at the Trump rally last week.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: He's won of you against Tom Swazi again. And Janine
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: Triscoll has been in these studios now and she was
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: at the Trump rally last week. Are you actively campaigning
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: for some of those candidates, Bruce on Long Island?
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: Well, absolutely. We need Janine Drisco, we need Michael Petrie.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: Their stand up people. They have outstanding records, They stand
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: for American values, they want to make it more affordable
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: to live in New York State. They are people that
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: we can rely upon because they have values and principles
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: that we share American values. So I'm very bullish on MICHAELA.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: Patrie and Jeanine Driscoll. I think they'll be great members
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: of Congress, and I campaign with them and I support them,
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: I endorse them, and I think they're going.
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: To win last one.
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: Bruce.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: If Kathy Holkel is listening right now, I loved it
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: when President Trump audrussed her on stage in Lawlers District
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: in rock And a couple of weeks ago. Watch out, Kathy,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: what's your message to the governor listening to us early
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: Monday morning, New week right here in New.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: York City, Kathy, do you mind if I have somebody
• 11:53
