Latest / The Mark Simone Show / Mark's 11am Monologue.
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: He's always a headline. I had Mark Simmo seven to
- 0:04Speaker 1: ten wo r. Well, we got a big hour coming up.
- 0:11Speaker 1: Lots to get to this hour. Now. The latest in Iran, Well,
- 0:15Speaker 1: Iran has been acting up. The current leader is the
- 0:20Speaker 1: head of the parliament. This is not a great job
- 0:24Speaker 1: to be the leader of Iran. You know, you probably
- 0:26Speaker 1: don't have long to live if you are. But the
- 0:29Speaker 1: Republic's parliament head, Speaker of the Parliament. He's like the
- 0:34Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell of Iran. Actually is leading the country. And
- 0:42Speaker 1: Iran escalated its tax overnight. They hit an oil refinery
- 0:46Speaker 1: in Israel. They hit an electric plant in Kuwait. Now,
- 0:51Speaker 1: they've been having these talks with Iran and part of
- 0:53Speaker 1: the deal was everybody would stop hitting infrastructure. Well, Iran
- 0:58Speaker 1: totally violated it and hit that oil refinery in Israel,
- 1:04Speaker 1: setting it on fire. They also hit an electrical plant
- 1:06Speaker 1: and Kuwait. I asked President Trump, now what about that,
- 1:11Speaker 1: and what's your response, And he said, you'll see shortly.
- 1:17Speaker 1: So expect a massive day of bombing at some point
- 1:22Speaker 1: this week, massive, massive day of bombing. It'll be absolutely
- 1:28Speaker 1: brutal on Iran. He's been telling them, you know, you
- 1:31Speaker 1: got five days. You got ten days, he's been telling
- 1:34Speaker 1: him lately. You got a couple of days to get
- 1:36Speaker 1: these negotiations wrapped up. Otherwise you're gonna really really get hit,
- 1:42Speaker 1: really get hit. So expect that to happen this week.
- 1:45Speaker 1: Something just overwhelming to happen this week, now, the president.
- 1:51Speaker 1: If you watch the Sunday shows that get you all
- 1:52Speaker 1: crazy that we're gonna have ground troops, it's obvious ground
- 1:55Speaker 1: troops will be there. Twenty thousand and thirty thousand, all
- 1:58Speaker 1: these ground troops around the way. That has nothing to
- 2:01Speaker 1: do with anything that It's just a tactic that's always
- 2:04Speaker 1: used when you're having a conflict with somebody. You send
- 2:08Speaker 1: destroy you know, a battleship to be out on the coast,
- 2:11Speaker 1: and then negotiation is not going on with three battleships
- 2:14Speaker 1: and nine destroyers. You just park that stuff there. It's
- 2:17Speaker 1: just for a show, it's for leverage. It's the same
- 2:20Speaker 1: thing with the ground troops. You send them there just
- 2:23Speaker 1: as a threat. That doesn't mean they're actually going to
- 2:25Speaker 1: do anything. Now that's possible. They could take carg Island.
- 2:29Speaker 1: That's the island where Iran has all of its oil
- 2:31Speaker 1: refineries and all of its oil production. It's absolutely crucial
- 2:37Speaker 1: to the Iranian economy. They could take Carg Island seize that, well,
- 2:42Speaker 1: that would mean ground troops that have to be there. Well,
- 2:46Speaker 1: it's possible, and it's possible that if you put ground
- 2:49Speaker 1: troops on Carg Island, they wouldn't really be in that
- 2:51Speaker 1: much danger in that the problem with ground troops, if
- 2:54Speaker 1: you put them somewhere, Iran can hit them with drones
- 2:56Speaker 1: or missiles. But it's unlikely that Iran would blow up
- 3:01Speaker 1: Carg Island. It's absolutely vital to their existence, very unlikely
- 3:08Speaker 1: to ever launch an attack on Carg Island. So we'll
- 3:11Speaker 1: see what happens, but expect something big to happen in
- 3:14Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. And again, if you watch the
- 3:17Speaker 1: fake news, if you watch the Sunday shows, if you
- 3:19Speaker 1: watch the Network News, if you read the New York Times,
- 3:22Speaker 1: the New York Push, you can get totally misled about everything.
- 3:25Speaker 1: And a classic example, and people who've gotten pretty used
- 3:30Speaker 1: to fake news, they were even a little stunned at this.
- 3:33Speaker 1: The New York Times did a piece trying to attack
- 3:36Speaker 1: the ballroom that President Trump is building at the White House,
- 3:40Speaker 1: so that if you look at the headline if you're
- 3:43Speaker 1: a crazy left winger, if you're a no King's nose
- 3:46Speaker 1: ring kind of and you're looking at this New York Times,
- 3:49Speaker 1: it looks like a panel of the greatest experts have
- 3:54Speaker 1: looked at this ballroom plan of Trump's and said that
- 3:56Speaker 1: it's absolutely crazysolutely crazy. It's the worst planning. Everything is wrong,
- 4:04Speaker 1: it's disastrous what he's planning for this ballroom. This panel
- 4:08Speaker 1: of the top architects of the world, well, that's pretty bad.
- 4:12Speaker 1: And now you know, when the left wing cooks read
- 4:16Speaker 1: this stuff, they go around and tell everybody, and as
- 4:18Speaker 1: they tell it, it gets embellished and embellished. It's the greatest
- 4:21Speaker 1: architects in the world. They said, the ballroom design is
- 4:24Speaker 1: total Well, none of this is true. Absolutely, none of
- 4:28Speaker 1: this is true. In fact, even people in the media
- 4:29Speaker 1: starting to analyze this story are a little shocked because
- 4:33Speaker 1: who did the New York Times ask? Because remember, Trump
- 4:37Speaker 1: has built these ballrooms. He's built the thirty of them,
- 4:40Speaker 1: He's built them at Mar A Lago, He's built them
- 4:42Speaker 1: at the Trump International Hotel and the Spectacular ballrooms. He
- 4:46Speaker 1: is probably the single biggest expert in America on how
- 4:50Speaker 1: to build a ballroom. And he's got a team of
- 4:52Speaker 1: architects and guys that have done these ballrooms all over
- 4:54Speaker 1: the world. So who the hell did they ask? Well,
- 4:58Speaker 1: people start to deconstruct panel that they put together, and
- 5:02Speaker 1: it turns out nobody on the panel has any experience
- 5:05Speaker 1: or any qualifications to be discussing this. Well, a couple
- 5:08Speaker 1: of them served on urban planning commissions. Every city has
- 5:13Speaker 1: an urban planning commission, which really is just planning on
- 5:16Speaker 1: where to put streets or something like that, and it's
- 5:19Speaker 1: generally it's like the board at the co op. It's
- 5:21Speaker 1: made up of amateurs who don't know what the hell
- 5:23Speaker 1: they're doing, and it's a people who got some sort
- 5:26Speaker 1: of political appointment. But a guy that was on an
- 5:28Speaker 1: urban planning commission has no qualification to discuss architecture of ballrooms.
- 5:35Speaker 1: There's a couple of people on there that are professors
- 5:38Speaker 1: of fine arts. What it's somebody who looks at paintings
- 5:44Speaker 1: in a museum. So nobody on this commission, this committee,
- 5:47Speaker 1: this panel of the New York TIMPs, had any qualifications
- 5:51Speaker 1: of any kind. And it turns out the architects Trump
- 5:54Speaker 1: is using, the teams that Trump is using have built
- 5:57Speaker 1: the most spectacular ballrooms all over the world. They build
- 6:01Speaker 1: these ballrooms left and right. They know exactly what they're doing.
- 6:05Speaker 1: It's just an example how fake news can completely con you.
- 6:10Speaker 1: They'll put together a fake panel of fake experts and
- 6:14Speaker 1: give you all these fake conclusions that don't mean a thing. Hey,
- 6:19Speaker 1: if you love following things in the White House, there's
- 6:21Speaker 1: a new app you should get app the white You know,
- 6:24Speaker 1: we get these The White House mails out this stuff
- 6:27Speaker 1: every night. They send the president's schedule for the next day.
- 6:31Speaker 1: You know, when the President does something, announce its something,
- 6:34Speaker 1: they send out a detailed breakdown of what it is.
- 6:37Speaker 1: But if you want to get this stuff now you can.
- 6:40Speaker 1: The White House just launched a new official app. It's

- 7:12Speaker 1: JFK Junior miniseries has really taken the country by storm.
- 7:16Speaker 1: It's is the most popular series. It's on Hulu and
- 7:22Speaker 1: everybody's talking about it, and women all over the country
- 7:25Speaker 1: are going crazy over the show because when you watch
- 7:29Speaker 1: it, it's JFK Junior. And in the show, he is the
- 7:34Speaker 1: most handsome guy you've ever seen. He's the sweetest guy.
- 7:39Speaker 1: He's a sensitive guy, he's kind of shy, and he's
- 7:42Speaker 1: in love with this Carolyn Bessett and it shows their courtship,
- 7:46Speaker 1: their relationship, their marriage, and it's a lot of women
- 7:51Speaker 1: all of the country's going crazy for this guy. And
- 7:54Speaker 1: it's really well done. I mean the sets, the scenery,
- 7:58Speaker 1: the back I mean, they've really captured the nineties, you know,
- 8:01Speaker 1: and he walks down the street in the show, every
- 8:03Speaker 1: car behind him is from the nineties. They used the
- 8:05Speaker 1: actual locations, the actual restaurants. They've really they've duplicated his apartment,
- 8:10Speaker 1: his mother's apartment, and it's really well acted. It's and
- 8:16Speaker 1: most incredible. It's called love Story. It's the most incredible
- 8:19Speaker 1: fantasy you've ever seen. And women are just loved this guy.
- 8:23Speaker 1: But I knew the guy. I was around for all that,
- 8:28Speaker 1: and he was a great guy. But this is not
- 8:30Speaker 1: him that you're seeing the series. They're leaving out a
- 8:33Speaker 1: lot of stuff, a lot of stuff. And I've noticed
- 8:36Speaker 1: there's some women online who knew him also who are
- 8:39Speaker 1: now speaking out about it, So I think it's kind
- 8:42Speaker 1: of important to get the truth out. He was a
- 8:44Speaker 1: great guy. He was the best looking guy he was
- 8:48Speaker 1: but and they didn't get this across in the show.
- 8:51Speaker 1: He was the biggest womanizer you've ever seen. He was unbelievable. Now,
- 8:56Speaker 1: I know a lot of guys who are the greatest
- 8:58Speaker 1: womanizers pick up art. They were phenomenal, but JFK Jr.
- 9:03Speaker 1: Had something going from that they didn't have going for them.
- 9:05Speaker 1: JF K. Junior was the greatest looking guy on earth.
- 9:08Speaker 1: He was the most famous guy on her said, imagine
- 9:11Speaker 1: the possibilities there, and he took full advantage. She was
- 9:14Speaker 1: sleeping with anybody and everybody. He was the real what
- 9:17Speaker 1: they call a hit it and quit it kind of
- 9:20Speaker 1: a guy. And if you didn't want to sleep with him,
- 9:24Speaker 1: that was it. You were cut off instantly, never spoke
- 9:26Speaker 1: to you again. Brookshields tells the story, and she told
- 9:31Speaker 1: it publicly about when she was very young at the time,
- 9:34Speaker 1: still a virgin. She met him, fell in love with
- 9:36Speaker 1: him instantly. The first date, they're making out, they're kissing.
- 9:39Speaker 1: He wants to sleep with her. She said no, she'd
- 9:41Speaker 1: like to wait. He rushes her out of the apartment,
- 9:44Speaker 1: just get throws her out, doesn't even get her a cab.
- 9:48Speaker 1: The next day she sees him, he won't even talk
- 9:49Speaker 1: to I mean, he was an incredible womanizer. I mean
- 9:56Speaker 1: in numbers you won't believe. So that was part of
- 9:59Speaker 1: the real him. The other thing, he was not the
- 10:03Speaker 1: brightest guy in the world. I'm not saying he was dumb,
- 10:06Speaker 1: but he was not a smart guy. He was not
- 10:10Speaker 1: the smartest guy. And I remember he flunked the bar. Well,
- 10:13Speaker 1: that happens, a lot of people flunked the bar. Remember
- 10:16Speaker 1: he went back and took it again, and he flunked.
- 10:20Speaker 1: And he did go take it a third time, but
- 10:22Speaker 1: his mother made some arrangements, some arrangements for him to
- 10:26Speaker 1: take the bar a little easier way, and then he passed.
- 10:29Speaker 1: But and the third thing about him, you got to know,
- 10:31Speaker 1: and this is the most crucial, he was incredibly reckless
- 10:36Speaker 1: and careless with himself, with his own life and with
- 10:40Speaker 1: everybody else's life. And that's how he died in a reckless,
- 10:47Speaker 1: careless way, and that's how he killed his wife and
- 10:49Speaker 1: her sister. And there's some people that believe, had he
- 10:52Speaker 1: not died, that he would have gone to trial. He
- 10:55Speaker 1: could even have ended up in jail for manslaughter. He
- 10:59Speaker 1: was in incredibly reckless, incredibly careless, and I saw it
- 11:04Speaker 1: all the time I knew him, just daredevil, reckless. It's
- 11:08Speaker 1: something that infected the whole Kennedy family. They were always
- 11:11Speaker 1: taking ridiculous risks and chances, whether it was sports or
- 11:15Speaker 1: whatever it was. So that plane crash was entirely his fault. Remember,
- 11:21Speaker 1: the National National Transportation Safety Board did their report concluded
- 11:26Speaker 1: it was total pilot error and complete recklessness. He had
- 11:29Speaker 1: no business, no business flying that plane. He was a
- 11:33Speaker 1: total novice. He was not qualified to fly that flight,
- 11:38Speaker 1: and he was not certified to fly in low visibility,
- 11:42Speaker 1: but he did it anyway. That flight was the most
- 11:46Speaker 1: reckless thing ever. He also had a broken foot. He
- 11:48Speaker 1: had broken his foot, and that meant he wasn't able
- 11:52Speaker 1: to even properly fly the plane. He couldn't use the
- 11:54Speaker 1: foot pedals because of that foot. He wasn't qualified to
- 11:59Speaker 1: fly just on instruments. He wasn't qualified or certified to
- 12:03Speaker 1: fly in low visibility. During that flight, even before he crashed,
- 12:07Speaker 1: he got totally off course. He flew up into the
- 12:10Speaker 1: path of an American Airlines jet, could have caused the
- 12:13Speaker 1: crash of that American Airlines plane accidentally went into their
- 12:17Speaker 1: flight path. And again, if he had not died, he
- 12:21Speaker 1: probably would have gotten charged with manslaughter. Now all this
- 12:24Speaker 1: stuff I'm telling you, and the National Transportation Safety Board review.
- 12:29Speaker 1: The wife's family used that and sued the Kennedy family
- 12:34Speaker 1: for wrongful death and did get a I think it
- 12:36Speaker 1: was a twenty million dollar payoff to end that lawsuit.
- 12:41Speaker 1: So none of that is really brought out in this show,
- 12:47Speaker 1: but it's important. It's important to know. Hey, you know,
- 12:51Speaker 1: for all the fake news, it's fascinating once in a while,
- 12:56Speaker 1: Once in a while, those Sunday shows, there's nothing more
- 12:58Speaker 1: corrupt than the ABC's on they show or meet the press,
- 13:02Speaker 1: But once in a while they'll actually get honest. I
- 13:06Speaker 1: don't know why, I have no idea. Once in a
- 13:09Speaker 1: while they'll get a little honest. So they had the
- 13:13Speaker 1: Democratic Senator on. He's yelling and screaming about the shutdown,
- 13:16Speaker 1: and they're asking him, why are you doing this? Well, Ice,
- 13:21Speaker 1: we can't fund ICE and we can't fund it. And
- 13:24Speaker 1: John Carl actually pointed out to him ICE has already
- 13:26Speaker 1: funded in a previous bill. They got seventy billion. They're
- 13:29Speaker 1: funded for a long time. It has nothing to do
- 13:32Speaker 1: with this shutdown. Wasn't well't infect ICE in any way.
- 13:35Speaker 1: So why you screw up the whole airport world for
- 13:38Speaker 1: no reason and fighting over that additional ten billion dollars.
- 13:41Speaker 1: You're holding up the rest of department. We're not holding
- 13:44Speaker 1: it up. I mean, you know you're saying, you know, John,
- 13:46Speaker 1: we're not holding it up. We have now voted ten twicets,
- 13:49Speaker 1: but you're holding up unless it doesn't include money for ICE.
- 13:53Speaker 1: That's just a fact. Yeah. The Democrat is stunned. What
- 13:57Speaker 1: the hell's going on here? They're actually asking me a
- 13:59Speaker 1: real question. Unbelievable. So, Mom, Donnie is all upset about ICE.
- 14:05Speaker 2: I have made clear to the President, both in our
- 14:07Speaker 2: private conversations and our public conversations, about the fact that
- 14:10Speaker 2: I believe that ICE is a rogue agency. It's a
- 14:13Speaker 2: reckless one. It's one that delivers nothing towards the furthering
- 14:16Speaker 2: of the cause of public safety. And I've also been
- 14:18Speaker 2: public about my belief that ICE is an entity that
- 14:20Speaker 2: should be abolished.
- 14:22Speaker 1: It's an agency that's been there forever. It's been around forever.
- 14:25Speaker 1: Obama used ICE to deport millions of people. Yeah, Obama
- 14:30Speaker 1: used ICE to deport, grab and deport millions of people.
- 14:34Speaker 1: You know who Obama had running ICE, Tom Homan. It
- 14:37Speaker 1: was the same exact thing. It's just Trump arrangement syndrome.
- 14:41Speaker 1: And here's Homan.
- 14:42Speaker 3: The same laws are in place today that were in
- 14:44Speaker 3: place under Obama, that were in place under Joe Biden.
- 14:49Speaker 3: The laws haven't changed. The difference is we were allowing
- 14:52Speaker 3: them force laws un'der those presidents. But guess what, President
- 14:55Speaker 3: Trunk's backing the Odal Office. We're not making it up.
- 14:58Speaker 3: We're in forcing laws. You don't like it, change the law.
- 15:01Speaker 1: Trump arrangement syndrome. It's a big, big problem. But hey,
- 15:05Speaker 1: we'll take some colls in a minute. Eight hundred three
- 15:08Speaker 1: two one zero seven ten is the number. Eight hundred
- 15:11Speaker 1: three two one zero seven ten
