• 1:59
  Speaker 1: to Richard in Bay Shore. Richard, how you doing, Hey.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: Good morning, Mark two quick points, one about Holman and
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: one about Preddy. I think Holman should wear his medal
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: that Obama gave him whenever he can. I mean, he
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: makes a public appearance, I think it'll you know that
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: he formerly met streaming press can't ignore it, and it'll
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: treate a discussion which will be I think positive.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Well it's a good idea, but Holman's not the type
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: to do it. He's not a grand standard. Even said
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: at the beginning of this press compas this morning is
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: I'm not a photo ops guy. He's You remember the
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Seinfeld episode where they got to meet Elaine's father played
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: by the old actor Lawrence Tierney, and he's just a
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: gruff guy. They get all uncomfortable with the guy that's
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: home and I mean, he's a great guy. I'm an
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: American hero, but it wouldn't want to spend New Year's
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: Eve with him. Let's just put it that way. He's
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: not the most lively guy in the world. But he's
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: a very very top top guy, perfect guy in this situation,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: and his press conference today was brilliant, exactly the right tone.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Freddy in Long Island. Freddie, how you.
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: Doing first time called a first time call a monk.
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: I have two questions for you.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: The first question is how do you what do you
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: think about the percentage of the protesters that are paid
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: in Minnesota.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Oh, it's a very good point. Many of them are organized, paid,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: and Holman said today of those of you financing this,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: justice is coming soon, so there is an investigation tracking
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: the money. Second question, what.
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: Do you think the percentages of the of the people though.
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: That are there.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: What percentage you think it is that are paid protesters
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: of all the people that.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: It's probably fifty percent because when you start this, well,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm just guessing it could be okay,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: when you start this kind of stuff, it's the paid protesters.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: We've seen the trucks pull up passing out the signs
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: that are all obviously from the same printer, very expensive printing.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Remember we saw that in the twenty twenty summer riots,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: where the truck would pull up and pass out bats
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: and bricks to everybody. Very organized, very well financed. But
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: then they start online. Everybody's tweeting and you know, in chats,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: letting everybody know where they are. So when they let
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: everybody know where they paid protesters are then a million
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: amateurs will show up and join in. But Homan making
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: a clear they are tracking the money and they will
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: be coming after they DJ will be coming after some people.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Dave in Orange County. Dave, how you doing?

  Speaker 4: be respectful.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Hey, I hate to say it. I hate to say

  Speaker 1: didn't have to go to the gym this week. I
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: just get enough excise jumping over puddles, climbing up snow banks.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: So they do have these big, huge, enormous machines. It
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: looks like a big enormous truck. And you take the snow,
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: you plow it up, and you dump it into this
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: thing and it melts it down to water and gets
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: rid of it.
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Some shopping centers used them. Uh, there was the plow.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: You know, when you plow a shopping center, you end
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: up piling up the snow. You lose half your parking spaces.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: But if you got these snow melters, you just dump
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: it into there and eventually can clear the whole parking lot,
• 6:05

• 6:07
  Speaker 1: the city last night. I don't know how many they have,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: but they're starting to do that with the snow. The
• 6:13
