• 0:11
  Speaker 2: it looks like, you know, this crazy race in Michigan.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: You've got Mike Rogers, normal, solid, sort of a guy
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: against this crazy Islamic extremist anti-Semite Al-Sayed. As we said,
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: Obama will be heading to Michigan. Looks like Trump will
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: head to Michigan this week. So you'll have Obama and
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Trump both campaigning in Michigan. This is going to be
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: the race that most likely decides who runs the Senate.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: Whoever wins Michigan, that's going to clinch it for the party.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: So if they win Michigan, the Republicans will have control
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: of the Senate. This early voting is very big this year.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: Early voting is underway in a lot of states. 18
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: million people have already voted in the country. Early voting.
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: 18 million votes have already been cast. Early voting starts
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: in New York State this weekend. You can go vote
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: for Bruce Blakeman. Make sure you vote for the Republican
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Attorney General candidate. Nobody can pronounce her name. Sabitha Kamateti-something.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: Brilliant woman. Would make a great Attorney General. Vote for
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Bruce Blakeman, obviously, but vote for the Republican candidate for
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: Attorney General. Get rid of this awful Letitia James. So
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: you can do that starting Saturday. You can start early
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: voting Saturday in New York State. By the way, Brad
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: Lander is up for re-election. It would be great to
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: get rid of Brad Lander. He's this anti-Semitic. Left-wing kook
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: Brad Lander. So he's trying to get publicity for his campaign.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: He's over in Israel. He went over there with a
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: bunch of left-wing rabbis. Now, Lander yesterday made news. He
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: was detained by the Israeli Defense Forces. He was detained.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: He was arrested. He was this. He was that. He
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: tried to make a big spectacle out of himself. It
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: turns out, you know, he said all we were doing
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: was picking olives.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: Well....
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: You're Brad Lander. You're in New York City. What the
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: hell are you doing over there picking olives? You know,
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: if Brad Lander, if anybody in New York City said, yeah,
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: I need some olives, you'd walk over to the supermarket
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: and get some olives. You wouldn't fly halfway around the
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: world and pick them yourself. Nobody would do that. So
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: it was obvious he's just to get attention, just to
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: do some anti-Israel nonsense. It turned out he wasn't arrested.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: He was wherever they were trying to pick these olives.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: It turned out it was a restricted military zone. that
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: was closed to the public. They were in a restricted
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: military zone. The Israeli defense forces came in and grabbed
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: these people, but all they wanted was to find out
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: who they were and check their identification. And that's all
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: they did. They came in. They didn't detain them. I mean,
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: they did for, you know, a minute and a half,
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: just checking their identification, saw who they were, and let
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: them go. So it was Lander making, you know, the
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: anti-Semitic Lander making a big something out of nothing Here's Lander.
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: What I'm angry about as an American Jew and a
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: human being is the violence that is being done to Palestinians,
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: an effort to push them off their land and out
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: of their homes.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: He's the biggest anti-Semite of all. And he talks like
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: your typical left wing. I am so angry about what
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: I am angry about. He's accused Israel of genocide. Nobody's
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: trying to push anybody out of anything. Israel has never
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: attacked anybody ever. except when they were attacked. I mean,
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: there was a Holocaust launched on Israel on October 7th.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: Can you imagine the Hamas genocide where they're shooting babies,
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: raping women, slitting the throats of babies? Lander had no
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: problem with that. Understandable. But he's just an anti-Semitic guy.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: And of course, the The Kuki Mamdani jumps in to
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: support Lander.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: The Israeli military found that as an offense worthy of detention.
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: It begs a larger question of their conduct over the
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: course of not just this week, not just this month,
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: not just this year, but so many years prior to this.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: And it is unacceptable.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: You see, this is what I mean. What they did
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: with the detention, it was unacceptable. It was outrageous.
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: It's a restricted military zone. If I broke into a
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: military base and started walking around, I would expect the
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: military to grab me and say, who the hell are you?
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Let me see some identification. And then they let you go.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: They take you out of the restricted zone and let
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: you go. That's all that happened. What else would you do?
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: The most logical thing in the world. You know, the
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: problem is these guys, you know, these anti-Semites, Lander and Mamdani,
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: they can't come right out and be honest. You know,
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: be honest. Just say, I hate Jews. I hate Israel. Oh,
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: I hate Israel. I can't stand Jews.
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: Just say it.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: It's terrible, but if that's what you feel, just say it.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: And give these Trump derangement syndrome people credit. They come
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: right out and say it. I hate Trump. They don't,
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: you know, try to hide it in any way. They
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: come right out and say it. This anti-Semitism is absolutely
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: out of control. It's unbelievable. We never thought we'd ever
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: see this in our lifetimes, but... Hey, a lot of
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: credit to Robert Kraft, Bob Kraft, New England Patriots owner.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: He formed this group. It's a foundation. It's called Blue Square.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: You should support this group. Blue Square, it's trying to
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: combat anti-Semitism all over the world. They've been raising money.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: They've been doing stuff. And last night they had their
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: first gala dinner. It's going to be an annual thing.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: They had a big gala dinner.
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: In the Waldorf.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: Big Waldorf ballroom holds a thousand people. And they really
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: filled it up, even more than the Al Smith dinner.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: I was looking at it. I was sitting in the ballroom.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: I was looking up at the balconies were all full.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: The second balconies were all full. They really filled this room.
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: And I couldn't believe the records they set, the money
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: they rose. This is all to combat anti-Semitism. You know,
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: when you do a big fancy charity gala dinner, In
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: New York City, in the ballroom of the Plaza, the Pierre,
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: wherever you do it, you hope to raise $ 1. 2 million,
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: $ 1. 4 million, maybe $ 1. 5 million to rent the ballroom for
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: your expense, to have everybody in the ballroom. If it's
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: the Plaza, the Pierre, you're going to end up spending
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: $ 400, 000 or $ 500, 000 in expenses. Waldorf ballrooms, very expensive. They're
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: really overcharging now that they reopened. Your expense there can
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: be $ 600, 000, $ 700, 000 for the ballroom. But you try to
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: make $ 1. 5 million in a ballroom charity gala dinner. The
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: Al Smith dinner. The Al Smith. That's a big one.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: They can raise like $ 3 million in one night. And
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: there's some of those Robin Hood Foundation kind of big,
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: big charity. They'll raise $ 4 million in one dinner. Well,
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: last night, Robert Kraft with this Blue Square dinner. Tom
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: Brady was the emcee. Bon Jovi was the second emcee.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Cardinal Dolan spoke. These guys, by the way, are all
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: what they call forks. A fork is what they call
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: themselves forks. Friends of Robert Kraft. So they were all there.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: But I couldn't believe they announced how much money they
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: raised that night in one ballroom in one night. $ 32 million.
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: I've never heard of that in my life. It's actually
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: over $ 32 million. Pretty amazing feat for Robert Kraft and
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: all for a great cause. But you should support them.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: It's Blue Square. to combat anti-semitism uh cnn is threatening
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: the white house they've been banned from air force one
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: uh they're threatening to sue they're going to take legal
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: action to demand demand to be on air force one
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: uh you could get some kooky left-wing judge but it'll
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: get appealed and when it goes to a real court
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: they'll probably rule there's no law that says you have
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: to be allowed on air force one it's the president's
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: plane he's traveling on he doesn't have to let you
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: on his plane He's going to Iowa today for a
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: big rally. If you're CNN and you want to cover it,
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: you can go cover it. Book some plane tickets. Get
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: a flight to Iowa. Go there and cover it. He
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: doesn't have to take you with him on his plane.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: So I don't know what grounds they have for a lawsuit.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: He can ban you from his plane. He doesn't have
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: to take you with him and his entourage. You're perfectly
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: free to go to Iowa and cover him. So that
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: suit going absolutely nowhere. Hey, Connecticut is all upset. Connecticut
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: is furious. There's a big new study that came out,
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: the best state for pizza. It's based on Google reviews
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: and all kinds of stuff. What state is number one
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: for pizza? Guess who won? New York. Well, of course,
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: all the top pizza spots in America, John's of Bleecker Street, DeFaro,
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: you know all the names. They're all in New York.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: Connecticut is all upset because they were number 16. Number 16. Now,
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: you know, Connecticut has been on this thing of trying
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: to convince everybody that they're the number one pizza state
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: in America. They even spent a fortune putting up the signs.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: Now entering Connecticut, the number one pizza state. Signs everywhere.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: The pizza capital. Well, that's not true. Connecticut is very
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: good for pizza. Some of the most famous pizzas in
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: the world are in Connecticut. Frank Pepe. New Haven, Frank Pepe, Sally's, and,
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: of course, the Colony in Stanford. These are legendary pizzas.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: But I could name... three or four or five maybe.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: New York you could name 50 of the greatest pizza
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: places in America. Connecticut came in number 16. That's not right.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: They should be in the top five. But they're furious
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: that they're number 16. And some of these states... This
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: doesn't make any sense. Texas, Oregon, Missouri, you can't get
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: good pizza in those places. Absolutely ridiculous. The government investigating
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: all kinds of fraud. They're finding more and more things.
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: Here they got a guy in Atlanta, this rap star,
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: Merciless New. He's an influencer. Ooh, an influencer. A rapper.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: Apparently they got him on fraud charges. Looks like $ 42
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: million in food stamp fraud between 2020 and 2026. This
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: 39-year-old rapper allegedly raided state-administrated supplemental nutrition assistance programs. It's
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: a hell of a name, but apparently was running what
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: turned out to be a $ 4. 6 million fraud scheme. All
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: in all, down there, they uncovered about $ 42 million in fraud. J.D.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: Vance and his task force. Good for them. Also, the
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: feds just announced moments ago they have filed charges against
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: a Democrat state senator. It looks like he was accused
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: of leading a marijuana distribution enterprise. OK, but they got him.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: That's good news. Bruce Blakeman. Go vote for him. Looks
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: like he could win. He could be the first Republican
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: since Pataki years ago to become governor. Now, once again,
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: let me repeat this. There's a Quinnipiac poll out there,
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: everybody's quoting, showing Blakeman down 14%. Don't take this poll seriously.
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: It's one of these junk, fake polls. They keep warning
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: you about these public polls. They rig them. They slant them.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: They bias them. Take this Quinnipiac poll. We had the
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: greatest pollster go in and look at the methodology, look
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: at the sample. It stinks. It absolutely stinks. In this
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: Quinnipiac poll, Republicans were only 22% of the sample, which
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: means 80% of the sample was Democrats. It's basically a
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: poll of Democrats. They didn't use likely voters. It was
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: randomly dialed numbers, no voter list. This is absolutely disgusting.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: They tried to quote demographic groups, but this is unusual.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: There was no disclosure of the demographics, no race, no age,
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: no education, no religion. Absolutely a total junk poll. Do
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: not take it seriously. Why do they do this? Well,
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: it's to suppress turnout among Republicans. It's a really, really
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: stupid thing to do. You know, in your car, your speedometer...
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: It goes to like 160 if you've got a really
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: fast car. Any car, it goes to 120. And you
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: look at that speedometer. Who's ever going to go 120? Well,
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: look at this guy. Easton, Connecticut. Easton, Connecticut. That's way
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: above Westport. Police are trying to seek this guy. They're
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: looking for this guy. He was going over 100 miles
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: an hour. Now you're saying, wow, 95? No, not on
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: a highway. No. Regular streets. In fact, in a school zone,
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: he was going 100 miles an hour on Route 59
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: in front of the school there. Now, police, apparently, there's
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: a Connecticut law. The police are not allowed to engage
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: in a high-speed chase. It's dangerous. People can get hurt.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: So they're not, you know, because if you chase him
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: at 100, he's going to go 110. You go 110,
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: he'll go 120, etc. They don't allow high-speed chases in Connecticut.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: You have to let the guy go. They do that
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: in New York sometimes where it just, you know, sometimes
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: there's a stolen car and the guy's going 100. They
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: don't start the high-speed chase. But in Connecticut, you're not
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: allowed to. So they couldn't chase the guy. And the
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: thing is, if you're going 100, you're going so fast,
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: they can't see your license plate number. They could try
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: to read it, but you're going so fast, you can't
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: see it. So they don't know who the guy is.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: They're asking the public to help. Easton Connecticut, they were
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: unable to identify the plate or the vehicle. We went
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: so fast. Hey, we'll take some calls next. 800-321-0710 is
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: the number. Give me a call, especially if you're a
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: new caller. We like to hear from new callers.
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: 800-321-0710.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: Marks them all, Mr.
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: New York.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: Now three hours every weekday from 9 till noon on 710WOR. Hey,
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: let's take some calls. 800-321-0710 is the number. Let's go
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: to Joel in Connecticut. Joel, how you doing?
• 15:07
  Speaker 7: Hello, Emma.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: Yes, Joel.
• 15:09
  Speaker 8: Hello, Mr.
• 15:09
  Speaker 9: Mark Simone. It's a pleasure to hear your voice.
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: This is going to be trouble.
• 15:13
  Speaker 9: I just wanted to say that, you know, one of
• 15:16
  Speaker 9: the dirty tricks the Democrats do is that they have
• 15:20
  Speaker 9: their government employees call people up who are, let's say,
• 15:24
  Speaker 9: eligible for This subsidy or that subsidy, if they want
• 15:30
  Speaker 9: to get free food three times a day, free meals
• 15:34
  Speaker 9: three times a day, if they vote Democratic.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Wow. That's old-style politics. That happens.
• 15:42
  Speaker 9: Well, I tell you, it's very dirty, very dirty.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: Nah, it's typical. It's politics. That's the way they do things,
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: especially the old-school politicians. Let's go to Bill in New Jersey. Bill,
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: how you doing?
• 15:56
  Speaker 8: Okay, thanks, Mark.
• 15:58
  Speaker 7: Two quick points.
• 15:58
  Speaker 8: This guy Lander, who was picking olives over in Israel,
• 16:01
  Speaker 8: you know, he had this all planned.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: Out, obviously.
• 16:04
  Speaker 8: I'm going to go to Israel. I'm going to break
• 16:06
  Speaker 8: some rules. I'll get caught. I'm going to tape everything.
• 16:09
  Speaker 8: And then when I get back to New York, I'm
• 16:11
  Speaker 8: going to send my tape to all the news channels.
• 16:14
  Speaker 8: And because I want attention. This guy could be the
• 16:17
  Speaker 8: clown of Barnum and Bailey Circus. He doesn't even need makeup.
• 16:21
  Speaker 8: He's a knucklehead, self-centered. He's got an inferior complex.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: He's running for office in the election. So obviously in
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: an election campaign, you do photo ops, publicity stunts. You
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: always do that. But this guy is doing anti-Semitic crap.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: He's trying to hurt Israel. He's a bigot. He's an anti-Semitic.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: The problem is he's a goofy sort of a guy.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: He's not an impressive guy. When he's in a debate,
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: he just looks like a goofy, annoying guy. So it's
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: tough for a guy like this to get elected, although
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: he seems to pull it off with these cheap tricks.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: You know, one thing about Mondani, when he's in the
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: debate and you don't know who the hell he is,
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: he talks a mile a minute and he sounds very
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: smart because he can talk so fast and he sounds
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: like a very educated, very... Brad Lander looks like a goofy, goofy,
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: annoying guy. You just want to You just want to, like,
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: throw a pie in his face when you look at him.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: So he's got to do all kinds of crap to
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: run a campaign. Let's go, Mike in Portchester. Mike, how
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: you doing?
• 17:25
  Speaker 9: All right, Mark.
• 17:26
  Speaker 7: Listen, I called because what I have is that these
• 17:32
  Speaker 7: people are tens of thousands of people.
• 17:35
  Speaker 10: Really?
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: Right. Call us back. Your phone is cutting out there.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: Let's go to Bob in Montvale, New Jersey. Bob, how
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: you doing?
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: I'm doing good, Mark. Thanks a lot. You know, I
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: wish the New York Post had an upstate edition because
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: there's three cases that are ongoing right now in Albany,
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: Saratoga Springs, up there. A 76-year-old veteran was murdered. A
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: 16-year-old girl was just raped in Troy.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: New York.
• 18:03
  Speaker 8: The girl in Saratoga Springs was, like, you know, slashed
• 18:06
  Speaker 8: the throat.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: New York Post has upstate reporters, upstate bureaus to cover
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: all that stuff. And those are terrible, tragic stories. But
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: you can't put everything in the New York Post every day.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: So those are Albany stories. Those are more local stories.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: Let's go to John in Ronkonkoma. John, how are you doing?
• 18:28
  Speaker 11: Doing well, Mark. Thanks. Hey, with all the unrest going
• 18:30
  Speaker 11: on in France, there is some good news. Take Poland,
• 18:33
  Speaker 11: for instance. Have you heard that the leader there is
• 18:36
  Speaker 11: saying they're going to arm guards at the border and
• 18:39
  Speaker 11: they're not going to let any Islamic jihadists in their country?
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but they'll still leave the borders open to everybody else.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: You know, not everybody comes in with a sign or
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: a badge, Islamic jihadists. Once you let everybody in, once
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: you leave those borders open, this is what happens. Everybody
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: warned France it would happen. They didn't listen. We'll see.
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: They've got an election coming up. Macron is term-limited out,
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: so we'll see who they put in. Let's go to George,
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: Port Jefferson. George, how are you doing?
• 19:11
  Speaker 10: I'm doing fine, Mark. Just a comment about the shooting
• 19:14
  Speaker 10: on the bridge. It's horrible. I carried a firearm for years.
• 19:17
  Speaker 10: I just can't believe what's going on. And just a comment.
• 19:20
  Speaker 10: There are people like Second Amendment, Second Amendment, regular people
• 19:24
  Speaker 10: could carry firearms in New York City is what they want.
• 19:27
  Speaker 10: Could you imagine? The guy in Carnegie Deli serves you
• 19:30
  Speaker 10: a sandwich. You don't like it. You shoot him. It's
• 19:32
  Speaker 10: really outrageous.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: It's not going to be any shooting in the Carnegie Deli.
• 19:38
  Speaker 10: I'm exaggerating, obviously, but... It's just outrageous.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, the Carnegie Deli, the crowd is like uh,
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: older Jewish. They're not that type to carry guns around
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: and shoot people. Uh, I was in the Carnegie deli yesterday.
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: Packed.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: Absolutely. Uh, packed. It's a great place. Uh, greatest cheesecake
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: in the world. Let's go to Gerald in Brooklyn. Gerald,
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: how you doing?
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: Fine.
• 20:03
  Speaker 7: And, you have a great show, Mark. Absolutely right. About the, uh,
• 20:09
  Speaker 7: Republican candidate for Attorney General. She's absolutely brilliant. But why
• 20:15
  Speaker 7: do you always make Senator John Kennedy sound like a rube?
• 20:20
  Speaker 7: He's one of the most brilliant people.
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: In the U.S.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: Senate. I never said that. He's not the most brilliant person.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: He's got real talent for those funny little catchphrases.
• 20:29
  Speaker 7: Vanderbilt, Oxford, University of Virginia Law School. Did you ever
• 20:33
  Speaker 7: see him take apart Democratic nominees?
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's great. He's a great talker. He's a great talker.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: He's great with the funny punchlines and catchphrases. By the way,
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: that Southern accent, go back and look at a video
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: of him 20 years ago. He didn't seem to have
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: that Southern accent. He kind of puts that on a little.
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: But he's great with funny little slogans and sayings, and
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: he's great with jokes. That's what he's great with. And
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: don't get so.
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: What about taking Democratic.
• 20:59
  Speaker 7: candidates for the court apart.
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: He doesn't take anybody apart he's good with punchlines he's
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: good with funny things you want to quote he's never
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: taken anybody apart but he's very good very articulate and
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: again nobody has funnier punchlines when it comes to him
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: and don't be so carried away with those academic credentials
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: oh he went to harvard oh he went to some
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: of the dumbest people i know went to harvard some
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: of the most useless morons went to harvard chuck schumer
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: went to harvard Don't take it so seriously. Time for
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: one more. Jerry in New Jersey. Jerry, what do you
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: want to say?
• 21:36
  Speaker 11: Hi, Mark.
• 21:38
  Speaker 6: We have an Egyptian-born doctor in New Jersey who was
• 21:46
  Speaker 6: close with the blind sheikh and also got $ 2 million
• 21:50
  Speaker 6: from a pro-Palestinian pact, and he's running for Congress, and
• 21:56
  Speaker 6: he gets no air coverage. And he just, he's going
• 22:00
  Speaker 6: to win.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: We'll see. If you're listening to New Jersey, vote against him.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: This is the thing. If you're a crazy left-wing kook
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: and you're hanging around with terrorists, Democrats will say, wow,
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: you should be a candidate. But you've got to stop
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: these people. We'll see what happens. It's 12 days away. Hey,
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: when we come back, the brilliant John Carney, when it
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: comes to the economy, business, the best writer in America
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: on the subject, We'll talk to him about AI. We'll
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: talk to him about the Fed, oil, inflation. We'll get
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: to all that coming up. This guy's the smartest guy.
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: We'll do it next on 710WOR. Mark Simone.
• 22:39
  Speaker 12: Mr.
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: New York. Now three hours every weekday from 9 till
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: noon on 710WOR. Well, John Carney, the brilliant writer, he's

  Speaker 2: every day. John Carney, how you doing?
• 23:20
  Speaker 5: Great. Thanks for having me, Mark.
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: I'm reading the New York Times. Apparently, our economy is
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: in crisis. Unemployment, everything's out of control. Is that the case?
• 23:30
  Speaker 12: No, it's the opposite of the case. We actually just
• 23:34
  Speaker 12: got jobless numbers in. These are people who lose their jobs.
• 23:38
  Speaker 12: They go and apply for unemployment benefits. These came in
• 23:41
  Speaker 12: at 194,000 for last week. On a three-month rolling basis,
• 23:48
  Speaker 12: it's the lowest it has been since 1969.
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 23:52
  Speaker 12: So we have never had such a stable and secure
• 23:57
  Speaker 12: labor market as we have right now in.
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: The United States. What about the claim that we're in
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: an affordability crisis? How bad is this affordability crisis?
• 24:07
  Speaker 12: Look, gasoline prices are up.
• 24:11
  Speaker 5: That's a problem.
• 24:12
  Speaker 12: The it started to leak into some other things, but
• 24:16
  Speaker 12: it is, it pales in comparison to what they tried
• 24:19
  Speaker 12: to underplay during the Biden administration.
• 24:22
  Speaker 5: When it really, really became a big problem.
• 24:25
  Speaker 12: We also, uh, inflation has come down a lot since
• 24:32
  Speaker 12: the worst years of the Biden administration. And we're probably,
• 24:36
  Speaker 12: and one, and look, once we get through the Iran situation,
• 24:42
  Speaker 12: we should expect to see oil prices come down a lot.
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: One thing about Democrats, you don't really want to count
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: on them to bring down oil prices. They tend to
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: shut down drilling.
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: But they don't want drilling.
• 24:57
  Speaker 12: They don't want, I mean, that's one of the big
• 24:59
  Speaker 12: lies about this whole situation. The Democrats act as if
• 25:03
  Speaker 12: they're bad about high gas prices, but they've done everything
• 25:07
  Speaker 12: in their power and they will do everything in their
• 25:08
  Speaker 12: power to make sure gas prices stay high. They consider
• 25:11
  Speaker 12: it When it's not politically useful for them to attack
• 25:14
  Speaker 12: Donald Trump over gasoline prices, they actually want gasoline prices
• 25:18
  Speaker 12: higher because they want to force people out of using
• 25:22
  Speaker 12: gasoline-powered cars into electric cars.
• 25:24
  Speaker 5: So they will do everything they can.
• 25:26
  Speaker 12: Including shut down refineries, shut down pipelines, shut down drilling
• 25:31
  Speaker 12: in order to drive up and put taxes, of course,
• 25:34
  Speaker 12: on gasoline in order to drive up the price.
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: They did this in California. You know, they now have
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: it up to $ 10 a gallon in California. Pretty amazing.
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: It is incredible. I do, you know, everybody should, it's
• 25:49
  Speaker 5: actually really easy to find it.
• 25:50
  Speaker 12: And I have no interest in telling people this, but
• 25:52
  Speaker 12: if you go to the AAA's website, you know, the
• 25:56
  Speaker 12: car company, the driver's company, you go there and you
• 26:00
  Speaker 12: look it up and you will find the prices all
• 26:03
  Speaker 12: over the country. Look at how expensive.
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: California gas is. And remember, that's what the Democrats want
• 26:09
  Speaker 5: for everyone.
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: So, hey, what about the Fed? When is the next meeting?
• 26:15
  Speaker 5: The next meeting is next Tuesday and Wednesday.
• 26:18
  Speaker 12: The Fed is widely expected not to raise interest rates
• 26:23
  Speaker 12: at this meeting.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 26:24
  Speaker 5: Although I have to say, I think there's a chance
• 26:27
  Speaker 5: they might.
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: What?
• 26:29
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 26:29
  Speaker 12: So Kevin Warsh does not like the market believing that
• 26:35
  Speaker 12: everything a Fed person does is indicating with certainty about
• 26:39
  Speaker 12: what's going to happen at the next meeting. What happened
• 26:42
  Speaker 12: when Kevin Warsh spoke at a IMF conference, which by
• 26:47
  Speaker 12: the way, these are ridiculous. They cost hundreds of millions
• 26:50
  Speaker 12: of dollars to put on. The last one was in Bangkok.
• 26:52
  Speaker 12: Kevin Warsh was there. He's a nice guy. He went,
• 26:55
  Speaker 12: he probably doesn't need to go to those things anymore,
• 26:58
  Speaker 12: but he goes to the IMF thing and he refuses
• 27:00
  Speaker 12: to say what the Fed is going to do this week,
• 27:03
  Speaker 12: as he should. That's, you know, he said he's not
• 27:06
  Speaker 12: giving forward guidance anymore. They'll announce what they, they'll decide
• 27:09
  Speaker 12: what they're going to decide at the meeting and then
• 27:10
  Speaker 12: they'll announce it afterwards. But the market took his, uh,
• 27:14
  Speaker 12: refusal to say anything as him saying something as him saying, yes,
• 27:18
  Speaker 12: we're going to do exactly what you expect. So he
• 27:21
  Speaker 12: really wants the market to stop thinking in that way.
• 27:25
  Speaker 12: He probably at some point will need to surprise the market.
• 27:29
  Speaker 12: And you know, this, I, I, you know, I'm not
• 27:33
  Speaker 12: privy to, you know, what Kevin Walsh was thinking as
• 27:36
  Speaker 12: he got on the plane back from Bangkok and saw
• 27:39
  Speaker 12: the markets reacting to his comments. But if I were him,
• 27:42
  Speaker 12: I would seriously consider... The market has it so that
• 27:46
  Speaker 12: there's no chance of a hike next week, but almost 100%
• 27:50
  Speaker 12: chance of a hike in December.
• 27:53
  Speaker 5: There's no real difference between the two.
• 27:55
  Speaker 12: Warsh could actually accomplish something by hiking in October and
• 28:01
  Speaker 12: teaching the market to stop trying to pretend he's still
• 28:04
  Speaker 12: doing forward guidance.
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: It's not Warsh's fault, but in the last bunch of years,
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: hasn't the Fed been a little too aggressive? Shouldn't they
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: stay the hell out of it when they can?
• 28:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 28:17
  Speaker 12: What I think the Fed and Walsh does want to
• 28:20
  Speaker 12: do this, make the Fed less important to the economy
• 28:24
  Speaker 12: so that, you know, so that it's stocks and businesses
• 28:27
  Speaker 12: and everything isn't constantly, not just about, you know, whether
• 28:32
  Speaker 12: or not we're producing good stuff, whether productivity is growing,
• 28:36
  Speaker 12: whether people have jobs, but instead people are so focused
• 28:39
  Speaker 12: on the idea of like, what will the fed do?
• 28:42
  Speaker 12: Kevin Walsh wants to move away from that. And I
• 28:44
  Speaker 12: think that would be a very welcome development, but it's
• 28:47
  Speaker 12: going to take some time. Look, the fed has been
• 28:50
  Speaker 12: basically since the financial crisis of 2008, the fed has
• 28:54
  Speaker 12: become one of the central actors in everything to do
• 28:57
  Speaker 12: with the economy. Ending that after close to 20 years
• 29:01
  Speaker 12: is going to take, uh, It's going to take a
• 29:06
  Speaker 12: little while and take some effort. Hey, we're talking John Carney,
• 29:11
  Speaker 12: Breitbart Business Digest.
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: You should read it every day. AI data centers, you know,
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: the problem is they're massive. They're way too big. They're
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: too noisy. Isn't this just a matter of time before
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: they get smaller and smaller like the computers did in
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: the 70s, 80s? They're going to get smaller, quieter. Isn't
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: that going to solve the problem?
• 29:31
  Speaker 5: I think they will get smaller and quieter.
• 29:33
  Speaker 12: It's sort of like we've done with nuclear power, where
• 29:36
  Speaker 12: people are developing small modular reactors.
• 29:40
  Speaker 5: Rather than giant reactors.
• 29:42
  Speaker 12: They will get smaller, quieter, and probably there will be
• 29:46
  Speaker 12: more of them. But I think a big possibility, look,
• 29:50
  Speaker 12: if enough states put moratoriums on AI data centers or
• 29:57
  Speaker 12: try to tax them in some way or another, I
• 30:01
  Speaker 12: think we may get Elon Musk's dream of the space-based
• 30:06
  Speaker 12: data centers where we'll be powering these things from satellites
• 30:10
  Speaker 12: and their signals will be beamed down to Earth so that,
• 30:15
  Speaker 12: you know, we won't hear them because they'll be up
• 30:16
  Speaker 12: in space.
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: I know he keeps talking about that. I don't even
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: understand what he's talking about. So you don't have to
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: be connected. I mean, you can do it from space,
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: send all that data. There's a channel big enough to
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: send it all down.
• 30:29
  Speaker 12: Our technology in getting signals from space is improving all
• 30:37
  Speaker 12: of the time, partly because of what SpaceX is doing.
• 30:40
  Speaker 12: There are other companies involved in this as well. But
• 30:44
  Speaker 12: I'll just give you a big picture. In 10 years
• 30:46
  Speaker 12: from now, we will probably not be using cell phone
• 30:54
  Speaker 12: towers except in New York City, in really dense areas, right?
• 30:59
  Speaker 12: In really dense areas that you'll still need cell phone towers.
• 31:03
  Speaker 12: The rest of the planet, particularly the rest of the
• 31:06
  Speaker 12: United States, will mostly work off of satellites.
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: And what is Musk? I'm reading all these predictions. In
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: 10 years, we'll have 100 million robots will be doing everything.
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: You won't need to work that much anymore. Does he
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: know what he... Well, obviously, he must know what he's
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: talking about, right?
• 31:25
  Speaker 5: We'll have robots.
• 31:26
  Speaker 12: And right now, think of this when there are self-driving cars, right?
• 31:31
  Speaker 12: So those are already robots that are moving around on
• 31:34
  Speaker 12: their own.
• 31:35
  Speaker 5: We will have.
• 31:36
  Speaker 12: Robots that are able to, that are less expensive than
• 31:39
  Speaker 12: cars that are able to do a lot of things.
• 31:41
  Speaker 12: But the idea that like there will not be work
• 31:44
  Speaker 12: for humans.
• 31:45
  Speaker 5: Is not true. There will always be plenty of work
• 31:49
  Speaker 5: for humans.
• 31:49
  Speaker 12: As I said to my daughters, you know, you still
• 31:52
  Speaker 12: got to study hard because you're still going to have
• 31:54
  Speaker 12: to get a job someday.
• 31:56
  Speaker 5: I hate to break it to everybody.
• 31:57
  Speaker 12: We're not going to have permanent vacation time anytime in
• 32:00
  Speaker 12: our lifetime.
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: Oh, except I like this. Musk is saying it'll be
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: a four, three day week, a four day week.
• 32:09
  Speaker 12: I think a lot of jobs that aren't that fun
• 32:13
  Speaker 12: to do will be done by robots. And a lot
• 32:16
  Speaker 12: of our jobs will actually become more fun and we'll
• 32:19
