• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Now seor presents no marks emotion.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Well, hey, shutdown is over. We'll go over the details.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: We'll get to the Epstein files and the hoax that's
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: taking place. We'll get to Chuck Schumer, We'll get to
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: Bruce Blakeman, We'll get to Mom Donnie. There's more to
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: learn about this guy. It's not good. It's not good
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: loss to talk about today. So the shutdown was the
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: longest in history, forty three days. A year from now,
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: nobody will remember it. Longest one before that was thirty
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: five days. That was in the first Trump term. Nobody
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: remembers that the shutdown ended. Trump was a big dinner
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: last night, business leaders dinner in the East Room of
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: the White House. Big dinner taking place. But while that
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: dinner was going on, the vote took place. They ended
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: the shutdown. Took the president a while, about an hour
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: to get out out of that dinner, get to the
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: Oval Office where he had the Cabinet, some of those
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: business leaders, and announced the end of the shutdown, signed
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: the legislation that brought it all to an end. It
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: was a great moment. He was very happy about that.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: He pointed out that this little stunt the Democrats pulled.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: This whole shutdown ended up costing America one point five
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: trillion dollars. What do you call it, their little escapade,
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: They're a little endeavor. He called it something like that
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: cost one point five trillion dollars. Was one of the
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: reasons for the shutdown was to try to damage the
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: Trump economy, just wreak a little havoc there, especially leading
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: up to the election. They thought it would help them,
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: especially in Virginia where a huge percentage of voters are
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: government workers. So they thought it would help in Virginia,
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: New Jersey and other places, just to have the shutdown
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: going on, just to rile up Democrats. So you got
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: to admit it did work. The down is over now. However,
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: this extension only goes till January thirty first, so it's
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: like two months before we have to go through this again,
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: and we'll see what happens. The fight over the Affordable
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: Care Act, which is obviously not affordable since you need
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: a subsidy to have it, you have to subsidize it,
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: it's obviously not affordable. The President will come up with
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: a better plan by the time January thirty first rolls around,
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: and he'll put that plan out. One of his ideas
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: is to give it costs so much money for this Obamacare.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: The government has to spend astronomical amounts of money on it.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: And he figured out that you could it be easier
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: just to give people the money and let him go
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: buy their own health care. That way, they could pick
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: whatever they wanted and get a much better plan than
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: you'd get from the governor government. The problem is big
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: one for Democrats. The reason they don't like that. You
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: might say, well, it makes perfect sense, that sounds like
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: a much better one. The real secret of Obamacare is
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: the money goes directly to the insurance companies, not the consumer.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: Insurance companies love that they get paid massive fees by
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: the government under Obamacare. That's one of the reasons Schumer
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: was fighting to keep it the way. It is not
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: just Tim but other congressmen and women, including some Republicans,
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: because by paying off these insurance companies directly, it means
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: massive donations to them from the insurance companies. They're big, big,
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: big donors. So Congress was trying to keep this in
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: place where the money just goes direct to the insurance companies.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Now the President's going to try to end that and
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: give it direct to the consumers and let them pick
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: whatever kind of plan they want. So that's what this
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: fight was about, in large parts, affordability thing. Affordabilities has
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: been drilled into everybody's head. That's how propaganda works. You
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: just repeat something i'd nauseum from every direction. If you
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: keep hearing it all day and night, you start to
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: believe it affordability crisis. It's not a crisis because inflation
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: is down dramatically from Joe Biden's presidency, where it hit
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: nine percent at one point round two percent. Now it's
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: way way down. Energy prices are down. Now people will say, well,
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: what about healthcare. That's sort of said, well, that's that's
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: not an inflation factor. That's insurance. That's all caused by
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: other reasons. That's not inflation driving that up. Even here
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: in New York City, you didn't see the gas prices
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: come down that much. All around the country, gas prices
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: are way down, but not so much here or California. Well,
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: the reason for that is state, local taxes, fees, penalty,
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: all kinds of stuff on the gas that's keeping it up.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: So it's not an affordability crisis. Prices are down and
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: going down. I think this is President Trump talking to
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: Laura Ingram about it.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: Look at the price of gasoline going from four to
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: fifty to two fifty or two seventy, it's going to.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Be two dollars. Guess people want affordable. Well the answer
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: me is my thing. And we have the greatest economy
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: in history. Are Republicans not selling it?
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: For Republicans don't talk about it?
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so they need to do a better job on
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Capitol Hill. The tags I'll give.
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: False talk and the Republicans, and I say it all
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: the time, Republicans have to talk about the fact that
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: prices are down.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that with the costco Walmart. Walmart just put out
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: that big study the price of a Thanksgiving dinner will
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: be twenty five percent less than less than last year.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: So you got all those kinds of things. But you're right,
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: Democrats have to talk about it. You can drill something
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: into people's heads and they believe it. You remember, you
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: all through the election from the beginning, all you kept
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: telling is Curtis can't win. Curtis can't win, No way
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: Curtis can win. Well, of course there is. He was
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: as good as candidate and probably a better candidate in
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: many ways in the very beginning. But if ten months,
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: if Curtis can't win every time, everywhere you look, Curtis
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: can't win. Curtis can't win. Curtis if you just hear
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: that four million times, actually they start to believe it,
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: and people start repeating it. They're like parrots, just repeating
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: what they're told to repeat. So that's the affordability the
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: State of the Union speech. The President will make that
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: in January. That's where he's got to fix all this.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: That'll come before the next shutdown vote. That's where he's
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: got to get through and really communicate all this to
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: the public. Hey, let's get to this Epstein stuff for
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: a second. These Epstein files, they want them released. There's
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: nothing that dramatic, and there's nothing about Trump in the files. Nothing.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: And remember those files have been in the hands of
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: a lot of people. It was here at the US
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: Attorney's Office Southern District. They all saw the files. I've
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: talked to a lot of people that have seen those files.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: It's nothing about Trump and there's nothing There's stuff about
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: other people in there, but nothing as dramatic as you think.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: There was never a client list Epstein never had any
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: sex clients. He had a client list, but it was
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: for a wealth management fund. As far as the sexual
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: stuff the girls, it wasn't a business. He didn't charge
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: any There were no clients. I mean if he came
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: to his house, there were women there of all ages.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: By the way, he's the one that liked the young
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: women's It looked like a Prince Andrew like young women too.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: But here's another thing to remember. Joe Biden had the
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Epstein files in his hands for four years. For four years,
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: Joe Biden, Merrick Garland, James Cobe, Clapper, Brannan, all these
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: people had the Epstein files. It belonged to the Biden
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: Justice Department for four years. They were trying in every
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: way to stop Donald Trump. At that point, they were
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: coming up with every scheme to stop Donald Trump. You
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: can be sure they looked through the Epstein files. Had
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: there been one word in there damaging the Trump, they
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: would have released it the next day. They would They
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: have a million people that know how to leak it
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: to the press. It's real easy to do. Had there
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: been anything that would hurt Trump, they would have used it.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: The lead up to the election and during the election,
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: they would have used it if there was anything in there.
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: There's nothing in there about Trump. Now, yesterday, earlier this week,
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: they put out this again. They leaked it. They liaked
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: it to reporters. There's victim number one says Trump was
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: in the house, that she spent a lot of time
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: with Trump. Victim number one. That's all they put out.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: Victim number one said she was with Trump in the
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: house and on the plane. Well, they didn't say what
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: they could have said. Victim number one was Virginia Gouffrey
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: because the reason they withheld her name. She did multiple
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: interviews with law enforcement. She was interrogated and interviewed millions
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: of times by law enforcement. In every single interview, she
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: said absolutely nothing happened with Donald Trump. He came to
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: parties and things at the house, and she said he
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: was always a total gentleman and very friendly. Nothing ever happened.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: She's no longer with us. She died, but she did
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: write a book, a long book about everything, and in
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: the book she says nothing ever happened with Donald Trump.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: Nothing ever. So they kept that from you. If you're
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: watching nightly news like NBC, boy, you really got conned
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: by them last night what a fake story. Victim number one,
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: So she spent a very dealar time with Donald Trump.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: Somewhere at the end of the piece they inserted it
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: in real quick just for a second. Virginia Govery said
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: nothing happened with Donald Trump, but for ten minutes they
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: made it sound like something bad happen with Donald Trump.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: So a complete total hoax. Now, the guy who they've
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: also has been dragging in this is Michael Wolfe, who
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: is the lowest form of journalism. I wouldn't even call
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: it journalism, a gossip column He's the lowest form of
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: gossip columnist. He is the most disgusting, creepy guy in
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: the world. He's put out a couple of books. His
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: whole business model is just bashing Donald Trump, and he
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: he'll say anything and everything, most of it not true.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: He's been caught in a million things that are not true.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: But because he's bashing Donald Trump, they'll put him on MSNBC,
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: He'll be on Meet the Press, He'll be on the
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: ABC Sunday Morning Show. He is the sleaziest, dirtiest gossip columnist.
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: Don't believe anything he says. Now, Apparently Epstein at one
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: point was emailing back and forth with this guy. So
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: they're starting to release all these emails Epstein and him were,
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: but if you really read the emails, it looks like
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: this lowlife, Michael Wolfe, this creepy lowlife, was coaching Epstein
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: on how to damage Trump and at one point suggested
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: blackmailing Trump because Epstein said he didn't have much of
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: anything on Trump, and he said, well, if you said
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: you did, you might. You could use it as leverage
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: and then take it back, and then you'd have he'd
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: owe you a favor. He was talking about actually blackmailing
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: Trump with Epstein. It's really embarrassed in this. It's interesting
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: the Clinton stuff. You know, obviously the Clinton's, the Obama's
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: all busy with Epstein. But somewhere in there, Epstein reveals
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: he had a fight with Clinton. He broke up with
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: Bill Clinton. He doesn't exactly say what it was, but
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: he said to Clinton, I guess Clinton was supposed to
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: do him some sort of favor, and he swore to
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: me that he did it, but he forgot. He swore
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: the exact opposite only two weeks before. So he's supposed
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: to do something for him and didn't do him. Now
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: The other thing is this Epstein seemed to be very
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: cozy with the New York Times financial journalist, this lowlife
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: Michael Wolf. So it's really the journalists that we're dealing with. Epstein,
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: New York Times finance journalist emails back and forth, you
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: can tell their real buddies, and he's relying heavily on Epstein.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: What the hell is the New York Times doing all
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: tangled up with Epstein? Now, the guy that should be
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: the most embarrassed is Larry Summers, who was Bill Clinton's
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: Treasury secretary. He was one of Barack Obama's chief economic advisors.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: You'll remember he was the president of Harvard. Larry Summers,
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: who tries to be this distinguished guy. If you look
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: through the emails, apparently he was very close to Epstein.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: And Larry Summers, a married man, was meeting with various
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: women all over the place, Not young girls, but women
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: who he's trying to do something with, and apparently was
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: having trouble. He was getting rejected left and right by women,
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: and he's constantly emailing Epstein for advice, and there's emails
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: back and forth. He's like a teenager Larry Summers right
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: in Epstein. Well, here's what she wrote. She texted me,
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: can't I'm busy. I'll call you next week. What does
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: that mean? And then Epstein is emailing him back, He's
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: just play it cool, don't whine, don't look don't look good.
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: And then apparently supposed to spend a weekend with one
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: woman in London and she canceled and what does that mean?
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: How can I get any And Epstein is coaching him.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: Don't say this. Say that's quite pathetic on the part
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: of Larry Summers. He should really be embarrassed. He you
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: know Ozzy Osbourne, we lost Ozzy Osbourne. Sharon Osbourne finally
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: revealed this for everybody to hear. She didn't really know
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: Donald Trump. Well, I mean not really, but he got
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: her number and he left her a voicemail. This is
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: Donald Trump leaving a voicemail for Sharon Osbourne.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: Everyone will know.
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: I Sharon is Donald Trump, and I just wanted to
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: wish you the best in the family. Have great Ozie
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: was amazing.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: He was an amazing guy.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: I met him a few times and I want to
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: say that he was unique in every way and talented.
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: So I just wanted to wish you the best, and it's.
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: A tough thing.
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: I know how close you were, and whenever I can do,
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: take care of yourself, say loo to the family.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: Thanks by Well, now they're playing it with Sharon Osbourne.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: There you see her tear up listening to it. It's
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: very nice. He does that all the time for people.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: You're not supposed to know about that, because the press
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: would never ever report that. Hey, we'll get to Bruce Blakeman.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: Apparently he's taking it seriously this run for governor. He's
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: gonna even go on a little tour upstate, which is
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: a good idea. That's what a smart guy does. You know,
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: you go test the waters.
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: You go.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: You don't just sit there and decide should I shouldn't I.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: You go up there and you meet voters, you see
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: how it feels, You get a feel for things. That's
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: that's what a smart manager would do. But we'll get
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: to that coming up. We'll get to mom Donnie, his transition,
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: what he's working on by even the Washington Post, even
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: the Washington Post bashing Mom Donnie talking about how phony
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: he was, this smiling, happy and you know candidate and

• 16:13
  Speaker 2: brands of coffee you can choose. And I imagine a
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: lot of people where they go to work in a nice,
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: big office, but the coffee's free. Why would just stand
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: in line at Starbucks and pay twelve dollars or something?
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: And it's like getting coffee from the motor vehicle department.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: You're wait in line. Finally you get up there, you
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: place your order. Now they say, all right, now go
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: over there and wait in that line to go get it.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: It's like motor vehicle, here's your temporary coffee. You'll get
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: the real coffee in that line over there. It's absolutely ridiculous.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: And you always get in the line behind that one
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: guy with the most complicated order, and it takes forever.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: And you know, and they have food at Starbucks. But
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: you notice the food case got smaller. It used to
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: be like the whole counter. Now it's like a little
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: tiny section. And it's avoid Starbucks. There's you know, there's
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: all these other places springing up. What's the one over there?
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: I can't remember. There's one right across the street, blank Street.
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: Blank Street is a great one that they're springing up
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: all over the place. Gregory's coffee is pretty good. Hey,
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: and dunkin Donuts. Dunkin Donuts has much better coffee than Starbucks.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: It tastes much better than Starbucks. I mean I wouldn't
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: exactly hire their decorator. I mean, they're the most depressing
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: looking stories you've ever seen. But the coffee is great.
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: It's probably the best coffee you yet dunkin Donuts. It's
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: one tenth the price of Starbucks. And everybody that works
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: there looks like they're gonna kill themselves as soon as
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: you leave. They don't look too thrilled. But but it's
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: much better coffee. Let's go to Aaron in Indianapolis. Erin,
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: how you doing, Good.
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: Morning, Mark. I'm sure you saw some of the clips
• 17:52
  Speaker 5: of Gavin Newsom partying with the indigenous folks in Brazil.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: Well, listen, let the guy enjoy himself.
• 18:01
  Speaker 5: Well, my point is that I think he should return
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: the favor and treat them to the French laundry.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: Well, that's a famous Thomas Keller restaurant out in California
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: in the middle of the pandemic when you were not
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: allowed to go to a restaurant. He was seen at
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: the French Laundry, which is it doesn't sound very good,
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: the French laundry, but it's one of the most expensive,
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: one of maybe the ten best restaurants in the world.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: And there he was. Now this other problem is his
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: campaign director got caught embezzling funds a quarter of a
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: million dollars. It's not his fault, Gavin Newsom, and there's
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: no governor or candidate goes line by line over the
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: accounting stuff. But it's the guy he picked, so reflects
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: on him. Let's go to Dave in Chicago. Dave, how
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: you doing.
• 18:49
  Speaker 6: Good morning, Mark. I'm doing very well. Thank you. Mark.
• 18:52
  Speaker 8: We all know that.
• 18:52
  Speaker 9: Chuck Schumer's career was over, as well as his fake
• 18:56
  Speaker 9: Sunday press conferences.
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: So I have to ask, first of well, if.
• 19:00
  Speaker 9: He writes a book, will he go on the liberal
• 19:04
  Speaker 9: networks to promote it? Secondly, will he get hired as
• 19:08
  Speaker 9: a commentary And when people touches him and Kamala Harris
• 19:13
  Speaker 9: write books, are they artificially inflated for The New York
• 19:17
  Speaker 9: Times by having people buying thousands of copies?
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: Yes, that can be done. All good questions. If Chuck
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: Schumer writes a book, nothing will happen. Nobody will buy it.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: We just tested that about six months ago. Remember he
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: wrote that book, what's it called anti Semitism. Here's the
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: guy who looked the other way when the worst anti Semitism,
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: the most frightening anti Semitism, was taking place on our
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: college campuses in his district, and he looked the other way.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: He left town, ran away. Then he has a gall
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: to write a book called anti Semitism. It didn't sell.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: He's a disaster. No, he cannot get a job as
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: a TV commentator because he's an old, depressing, fossil old
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: dinosaur who just sounds awful talking. That's why he always
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: reads everything off these index what's the other question? If
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: he leaves, you know, if he leaves as bad as
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: he is, you gonna get somebody worse. Is a senate
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: to minority leader. You're gonna get like a Chris Murphy,
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: that real dirty, you know, lying, thieving, rotten Connecticut senator.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: And then spig in the Connecticut you guys got Richard Blumenthal.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: He's your Chuck Schumer. Just depressing old man. Let's let's
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: go to Jimmy and New Milford. Jimmy, how you doing.
• 20:30
  Speaker 10: Thanks, Good morning Mark, Mark. You know the way you
• 20:33
  Speaker 10: were saying that every time it turned around, people were
• 20:36
  Speaker 10: saying that Curtis can't when Curtis can't wain, Curtis can't win.
• 20:41
  Speaker 10: You know, I love w All and I love the DJs,
• 20:45
  Speaker 10: but the problem is, I think when they always have
• 20:48
  Speaker 10: to repeat well every bad you know, the nuts are
• 20:51
  Speaker 10: saying about Donald Trump. You know you got to say,
• 20:55
  Speaker 10: uh is they have to say it to the lad
• 21:00
  Speaker 10: ain't know anything bad. They have to be paid to
• 21:02
  Speaker 10: make the point. You know, whoa, Look at what they're saying.
• 21:05
  Speaker 11: Whoa.
• 21:06
  Speaker 10: But I'm so shicky. What are you talking about?
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: Oh? Do you know what he said? I don't know
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: what he said. He's sound to good. He's got a
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: good voice. It said something catchy about his way. You
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: like listening to him. But I have no idea what
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: you're talking about. But and did he say? The DJs
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: at w R. I think the last DJ here I'm
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: trying to remember, well, it would have been somewhere John Gambling.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: I think he used to play music. Gene Claven used
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: to be here in the afternoons. He played music, But
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: I think that was in the late seventies, So I
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: don't think we've had a DJ since then. When we
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: come back, we'll see if we can talk to Steve Moore.
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: I think he'll show up. Steve Moore, the Brilliant Economists
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: will be with us next on seven to ten w
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: o R. Welcome back to the Mark Simone Show, seventen

• 22:23
  Speaker 12: Doing, Hey, Mark, Good to be with you now. I'm
• 22:27
  Speaker 12: not doing well. I spent so much time in the
• 22:29
  Speaker 12: last four days at the airport. This flight castle, that
• 22:32
  Speaker 12: flight castle, you know, delays. It's just been a complete havoc.
• 22:37
  Speaker 12: And now I hear that it's probably going to go
• 22:38
  Speaker 12: on for even another two weeks, even now that they're
• 22:41
  Speaker 12: finally about to reopen the government. It's just been chaotic.
• 22:45
  Speaker 12: And by the way, Mark, what exactly did Chuck Schumer
• 22:48
  Speaker 12: achieve from this? I mean really nothing? I mean it
• 22:52
  Speaker 12: was fifty six billion dollars of lost taxpayer money cause mayhem, turmoil,
• 22:58
  Speaker 12: frustration for people on the country and he got nothing.
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: Well, did he get nothing? Or was the whole idea
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: just to screw up the Trump economy a little, maybe
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: screw up the old Well.
• 23:09
  Speaker 12: Maybe that would be a very nefarious motivation, you know,
• 23:14
  Speaker 12: if he intentionally sabotaged the economy to make Trump look bad.
• 23:17
  Speaker 12: But I guess that's what politicians do this these days.
• 23:20
  Speaker 12: And you know, shame on him because it really did
• 23:23
  Speaker 12: ruin our whole weekend. My wife and I were gonna
• 23:24
  Speaker 12: have a little retreat, you know, get away for three.
• 23:26
  Speaker 6: Or four days.
• 23:27
  Speaker 12: We spent half the weekend in the airports and people
• 23:30
  Speaker 12: were so angry all over, you know, everywhere went And
• 23:34
  Speaker 12: what a way to score political points is to is
• 23:37
  Speaker 12: to inconvenience people all over the country.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: Well, if you look back fourteen shutdowns, no party has
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: ever gained anything from a shutdown. The shutdown caucuses, oh
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: for fourteen, isn't it it? Never does anything.
• 23:50
  Speaker 12: Well, that's right, and what and by the way, you
• 23:53
  Speaker 12: know what what what Chucky Schumer wanted was to you know,
• 23:58
  Speaker 12: allow of the legal immigrants to get help care benefits,
• 24:00
  Speaker 12: to add one hundred and fifty billion dollars a year
• 24:04
  Speaker 12: in cost to the federal government when we're already running
• 24:06
  Speaker 12: two trillion dollar deficits. I mean, it was outrageous demands
• 24:10
  Speaker 12: and he was basically holding the government hostage until in Trump,
• 24:15
  Speaker 12: to his credit, did not blink. Here he said, you know,
• 24:17
  Speaker 12: screw you. We're we're not going to cave into your blackmail.
• 24:22
  Speaker 12: And I think Americans should be very angry about what happened.
• 24:25
  Speaker 12: And that's fifty six to sixty billion dollars billion with
• 24:28
  Speaker 12: a B that was lost to taxpayers because of the
• 24:31
  Speaker 12: cost of the shutdown.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: Now, Steve Moore, am, I right, Obamacare is a total failure.
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: If it wasn't, why would you need If it's affordable,
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: why would you need subsidies?
• 24:42
  Speaker 12: You know it is It would be hard to come
• 24:45
  Speaker 12: up with something stupider than what we have today. And more,
• 24:48
  Speaker 12: it's so expensive we pay through the WAHOO with all
• 24:52
  Speaker 12: of these costs. And since we passed Obamacare, which was
• 24:57
  Speaker 12: supposed to be the Affordable Care Act, the coast of
• 25:00
  Speaker 12: health insurance is doubled and tripled for most Americans. You know,
• 25:04
  Speaker 12: it's costing the average family now thirty thousand dollars a
• 25:07
  Speaker 12: year for healthcare. That's a lot of money. And so
• 25:10
  Speaker 12: we've got to figure out a better way to do this.
• 25:12
  Speaker 12: Trump has some very good ideas. I mean, you know,
• 25:14
  Speaker 12: let's just move to more of a catastrophic insurance model,
• 25:18
  Speaker 12: where you would you know, for the first say, five
• 25:21
  Speaker 12: thousand dollars of costs, you know, you just pay out
• 25:23
  Speaker 12: of pocket, but you're not going to pay thirty thousand
• 25:25
  Speaker 12: dollars a year for insurance, and everybody would come out ahead.
• 25:28
  Speaker 12: I mean, when you go to the doctor or the
• 25:30
  Speaker 12: hospital mark, you know, do you ask what it's going
• 25:34
  Speaker 12: to cost?
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: No, nobody does, and then you're in there for five
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: minutes and the bills forty thousand dollars.
• 25:42
  Speaker 12: Yeah. I mean, can you imagine if we all went
• 25:44
  Speaker 12: to the grocery store and didn't pay for it? Yeah,
• 25:47
  Speaker 12: I'd have lobster and steak and champagne every night.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah. But the real reason for this is Obamacare, and
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: the reason Democrats fight to keep it. The money goes
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: directly to the insurance companies from the government. Yes, so
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: what do we do about that? How are you going
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: to break that model?
• 26:03
  Speaker 6: Yeah?
• 26:03
  Speaker 12: The insurance companies have become the real villains here. So
• 26:06
  Speaker 12: when they know they wanted these expansions of Obamacare subsidies,
• 26:10
  Speaker 12: which is going to cost hundreds of billions of dollars,
• 26:13
  Speaker 12: guess where seventy percent of.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: The money goes. Insurance companies.
• 26:17
  Speaker 12: Yeah, insurance companies. They just put in the bank. They're
• 26:20
  Speaker 12: making so much money, hand over fists, and they were
• 26:24
  Speaker 12: the chief lobbyert. They were the group that, more than
• 26:27
  Speaker 12: any other group on Capitol Hill was lobbying for these
• 26:29
  Speaker 12: extensions because they have made a fortune off of Obamacare,
• 26:34
  Speaker 12: whereas there's no evidence that Obamacare has had any positive
• 26:38
  Speaker 12: impact on people's health.
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Hey, Steve Moore, let me ask you another question.
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: If you are watching TV, listening to radio, reading stuff,
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: going to the news sets, and all you hear about
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: is the affordability crisis. This is all you hear a
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: thousand times an hour, You're going to start to think
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: there is an affordability crisis. It propaganda works that way.
• 26:58
  Speaker 12: Well, there is an affordability crisis. There's no question about it.
• 27:01
  Speaker 12: I mean, prices are up, you know, thirty percent since
• 27:04
  Speaker 12: Joe Biden was present. Thirty percent. It's unbelievable. Now, guess
• 27:07
  Speaker 12: what twenty five percent of that thirty percent was under Biden.
• 27:11
  Speaker 12: I mean, you know, so I'm angry about the cost
• 27:14
  Speaker 12: of groceries. I'm angry about the cost of you know,
• 27:17
  Speaker 12: buying things today. It's health insurance costs, housing cost, grocery
• 27:21
  Speaker 12: costs up up, up, up up. But folks, remember the
• 27:24
  Speaker 12: vast majority of this insurance, of this inflation and higher
• 27:28
  Speaker 12: costs and higher interest rates was under Biden because he's
• 27:31
  Speaker 12: spent about five trillion dollars we didn't have with this
• 27:34
  Speaker 12: massive spending spree. So we are seeing costs come down.
• 27:38
  Speaker 12: I mean, you know, the rate of inflation come down.
• 27:41
  Speaker 12: It was remember when it hit nine point one percent
• 27:43
  Speaker 12: under in place under Biden. That was in I think
• 27:46
  Speaker 12: twenty twenty one, twenty two. You know, now it's down
• 27:49
  Speaker 12: to about two point eight percent, which is still too high.
• 27:52
  Speaker 12: You know, we'd like to bring it down some more.
• 27:54
  Speaker 12: But Trump is doing that. The inflation rate is coming down.
• 27:58
  Speaker 12: But remember, you know, he's only been in office for
• 28:01
  Speaker 12: nine months and Biden, we just blew a hole in
• 28:04
  Speaker 12: the budget in the inflation rate, and it's going to
• 28:07
  Speaker 12: take some time. But by the way, I was traveling
• 28:10
  Speaker 12: last week, as I mentioned, and I was in the
• 28:12
  Speaker 12: Midwest for a couple of days. Two sixty nine a
• 28:15
  Speaker 12: gallon for gas. Yeah, that's the last time you saw that.
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we don't see it in New York at California.
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: But in between, gas prices are wordy now. And I mean,
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: it's just a mess. But inflation is down since Trump
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: took over, and you always said it is done. You
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: always say it's going to take him a year or
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: so to really fix the problem. So we're only about
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: halfway there, right.
• 28:38
  Speaker 12: Right, And but look, we have the numbers and what's
• 28:41
  Speaker 12: happened to people's real income. In other words, when you
• 28:44
  Speaker 12: take inflation into account, people, things are more affordable today
• 28:48
  Speaker 12: for most people, not less affordable. So the average family
• 28:51
  Speaker 12: has about twelve hundred dollars more after inflation income. Another
• 28:56
  Speaker 12: point I want to make about this is that you know,
• 28:58
  Speaker 12: the big beautiful tax though we passed, most Americans have
• 29:02
  Speaker 12: not felt the effect of that yet because they didn't
• 29:05
  Speaker 12: change their withholding on their taxes. So what that means
• 29:08
  Speaker 12: and Trump has made this point, you know several times.
• 29:11
  Speaker 12: Next year. Next year people are going to see a
• 29:14
  Speaker 12: big reduction and the taxes withheld from their paychecks because
• 29:17
  Speaker 12: they didn't do it this year. So you know, relief
• 29:20
  Speaker 12: is coming folks.
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Hey, Steve Moore in Florida, Ron Desantus, he's talking
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: about getting rid of property tax, and he's saying that
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: everybody should, everywhere, every state get rid of property tax.
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: And he makes the point, it's your land, you own it.
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: How's the government taxing you on this? But then what
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: do you do to make up for that needed money?
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: You have growth?
• 29:43
  Speaker 12: You know, I mean Florida has imported one trillion dollars
• 29:47
  Speaker 12: of capital from and disposable income from other states. And
• 29:51
  Speaker 12: guess where most of that money is coming from. No,
• 29:54
  Speaker 12: I don't tell us New York, New York, New York
• 29:57
  Speaker 12: and California. And so they have so much money coming
• 30:00
  Speaker 12: in that they're able to cut their you know, Florida
• 30:02
  Speaker 12: has no income tax, and now they're cutting their property tax.
• 30:05
  Speaker 12: They've cut this tax, that tax. The only tax that's
• 30:07
  Speaker 12: kind of high in there are sales tax, but everything
• 30:09
  Speaker 12: else is pretty low. It's a very affordable state. That's
• 30:13
  Speaker 12: the other thing about the affordability issue, Mark that you
• 30:15
  Speaker 12: were asking me about. Yeah, if you live in New York,
• 30:17
  Speaker 12: everything's expensive. If you move to a red state, things
• 30:20
  Speaker 12: cost a lot less. Why because they have high taxes
• 30:23
  Speaker 12: in the Blue states, they have high regulations, they have
• 30:27
  Speaker 12: you know, energy costs are much higher in the Blue states.
• 30:30
  Speaker 12: So if you want more affordability and you want your
• 30:33
  Speaker 12: paycheck to go further, move to a red state.
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: I'm not leaving. I'm staying right here.
• 30:39
  Speaker 12: How do you I know you're not. You know, we
• 30:42
  Speaker 12: need you there in New York and that in Northeast.
• 30:46
  Speaker 12: But a lot of people are and the problem is
• 30:48
  Speaker 12: that that tide will increase dramatically at a piece of
• 30:52
  Speaker 12: New York Post on this the other day that you know,
• 30:54
  Speaker 12: if mom and Dami does what he said he's going
• 30:57
  Speaker 12: to do and continues to raise the tax rate, you know,
• 31:01
  Speaker 12: I think sixteen percent they want, Well, you can go
• 31:03
  Speaker 12: to Florida or Texas pay zero. You know, people don't
• 31:06
  Speaker 12: get rich by being stupid, right, and then that stupid
• 31:10
  Speaker 12: if they see, hey, I could pay sixteen percent in
• 31:12
  Speaker 12: New York or zero in Florida. What do you think
• 31:14
  Speaker 12: you'd do, especially if you're a billionaire. I could save
• 31:16
  Speaker 12: one hundred million dollars a year by moving to you know, Florida. Unfortunately,
• 31:21
  Speaker 12: a lot of the billionaires are going to leave. And
• 31:24
  Speaker 12: then who's Mondomie going to get the tax money from.
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: Well, at least he's going to solve the traffic problem.
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: The good luck will be there. Well. Steve Moore, great stuff. Everybody,

• 32:05
  Speaker 2: listen to Jimmy Fayla. Actually he'll be with us in
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: the next hour, but you got to listen to the
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: show every night at nine on seven ten WR.
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: Marximone on seven ten WR.
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: Hey, we'll get to mom, Donnie, We'll get to the
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: governor's race. We'll talk to Jimmy Fayla and a whole
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: lot more coming up on seven ten WO.
• 32:26
  Speaker 13: Mister New York Marximon on seven ten WR.
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: Well, we'll get to Mom, Donnie and uh Moore. Coming
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: up this hour, Letitia James, who's facing serious criminal charges
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: James Comy, facing serious criminal charges, are now in court
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: trying to get the US attorney disqualified. Lawyers for Comy
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: and Leticia James are arguing today the criminal cases is
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: against them should be tossed because President Trump's hand pick
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: prosecutor is illegitimate. Illegitimate, they say, Now, of course, this
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: makes absolutely no sense. They're claiming they've been targeted by
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: Trump because of their past investigations into Trump. Well they're claiming, See,
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: that's not going to work. If they're claiming they've been
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: targeted because they targeted him, that doesn't really hold up.
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: It doesn't pass the Laft test. They both pled not guilty,
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: and they'll try to it said, this is a pretty
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: good indication that they don't have a strong defense if
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: they're trying to get the prosecutor removed, trying to claim
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: they are political targets rather than argue the case. It
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: means it's a pretty good case against them. So the
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: zorin Mam Donnie is back from Puerto Rico where he
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: was at that Democratic I don't know what you call
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: that thing. It's a conference after every election all the
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: Democrats in New York they head to Puerto Rico for conference.
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: But as Curtis would call it, whining, dining, pocket lining,
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: all the lobbyists happened to be there at the same time,
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: all the special interest groups happen to be there at
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: the same time. So you do the math. But Mamdani
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: is back. He's got a chief of staff who's a
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: crazy socialist. He's got a first deputy mayor. That's the
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: most important thing. First deputy mayor is the guy that
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: actually runs or gal or guy or runs city hall.
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: Adams had a woman first deputy mayor, but the current
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: one is Dean full full Land. He was Deblasio's first
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: deputy mayor for years and years and years. Now there's
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: four other people that have already been chosen that are
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: from the Deblasio administration. So it looks like you're going
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: to get pretty much what you got during the Deblasio administration,
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: which was not good, but we got through it all right.
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, you know, you remember those eight years. It
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: was eight years of Deblasio. Crime went up a little
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: and went up in certain neighborhoods, and there were problems
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: here and there, but we got through it just fine.
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: And now the only problem is you got a crazy
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: city council. The election was not good city council wise.
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: You got more wacko left wing kooks than the city council,
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: just as you have in the state legislature. And the
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: problem is this Mamdani first Deputy Mayor Dean Fullane. One
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: of the reasons he might have been chosen. He's a
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: big guy with the legislature. He's the most connected, plugged
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: in guy with that legislature up there in Albany. So
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: if they want to get some tax increases or something past,
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: this guy's got a good shot at getting it done.
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: So that's the only big problem with this guy. Now,
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: the free buses all that stuff, of course, that was
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: just silly and people fell for it. Mamdani promising free busses.
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: The mayor has absolutely no control over the buses. They're
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: run by the state, by the MTA. Mayor has nothing
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: to say about it. Hockel said, you can't just take
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: away this revenue. We need it. She's not going to
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: do it. Now, you got to always be mad at
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: Kathy Hockle, who's always screwing in you up. If she
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: was going to tell people that you can't have the
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: free buses, it's not going to happen. Why didn't she
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: tell us during the campaign. Why did she wait till
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: after the election? Well, because it's you know, that's what
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: a hack Democrat does. Mom Downey was asked about this,
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: but you're not going to get the free buses.
• 36:30
  Speaker 13: I think the governor and I share a belief that
• 36:32
  Speaker 13: in making buses free, we have to replace the revenue
• 36:35
  Speaker 13: for the MTA. We cannot simply demand that they do
• 36:38
  Speaker 13: so without covering the amount of money they would raise
• 36:40
  Speaker 13: from fares. And that's the cost of about seven hundred
• 36:42
  Speaker 13: million dollars a year.
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: So yeah, if you're not going to get rid of
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: the fair you're going to have to replace it. With
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: it all comes down, you're gonna have to pay seven
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: hundred million one way or another. Will he meet with Trump?
• 36:54
  Speaker 13: Do you plan to call President Trump? I will be
• 36:56
  Speaker 13: reaching out to the White House and as we prepare
• 36:59
  Speaker 13: to actually take office, because this is a relationship that
• 37:02
  Speaker 13: will be critical to the success. So it wasn't just
• 37:04
  Speaker 13: a hypothetical scenario on our debate stage.
• 37:06
  Speaker 6: They're actually going to call him.
• 37:08
  Speaker 13: What will you say, Well, I'll say that I'm here
• 37:10
  Speaker 13: to work for the benefit of everyone that calls the
• 37:12
  Speaker 13: city home, and that wherever there is a possibility for
• 37:15
  Speaker 13: working together towards that end, I'm ready, and if it's
• 37:17
  Speaker 13: to the expense of those New Yorkers, I will find it.
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, So, now what does that mean? He won't call Trump.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: He'll call the White House. He'll get some kind of meeting.
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: Most likely he'll be chief of staff Susie Wilds. She'll
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: meet with him. Then they'll see how that goes. If
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: it goes really well, maybe maybe there'll be a phone
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: call between the Trump and Mom Donnie. I doubt there'll
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: be a meeting because I don't think either of I
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: don't think either one of them wants a picture with
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: the other guy. It's not going to help Mom Donnie
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: to have a picture of Trump, certainly not going to
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: help Trump have a picture of Mom Donnie. But you
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: never knows. He's meeting with Susie Wiles. You never know
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: what Trump will do. He might just pop into the room. Ah,
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: there he is, my little communist. He might he might
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: try to come in and win him over. But I
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: think they'll let somebody meet with him first and see
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: how it goes. Now, will he keep Jessica tiss She
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: was asked about this again.
• 38:08
  Speaker 13: I continue to be confident in the decision I've made
• 38:12
  Speaker 13: to retain her, and I look forward to the conversation
• 38:14
  Speaker 13: that we have. And the reason for my confidence is
• 38:17
  Speaker 13: that I see, amidst whatever disagreement there may be, there
• 38:19
  Speaker 13: is a common shared goal of delivering on public safety.
• 38:23
  Speaker 13: And even earlier when you were asking me about the
• 38:25
  Speaker 13: potential of the National Guard, you know, the Police Commissioner
• 38:27
  Speaker 13: said very clearly, we do not need the National Guard
• 38:29
  Speaker 13: in New York City. The NYPD is here to create
• 38:31
  Speaker 13: that public safety and working together to deliver on her
• 38:34
  Speaker 13: record of reducing crime and accompanying that record with the
• 38:38
  Speaker 13: creation of a Department of Community Safety, these are the
• 38:40
  Speaker 13: things that excite me.
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: Now, it was pretty clear he didn't say, well, I
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: might keep her.
• 38:46
  Speaker 13: He said, I continue to be confident in the decision
• 38:49
  Speaker 13: I've made to retain her.
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: Now that's pretty specific. I've made the decision to retain her,
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: so that means she's staying. However, you got to put
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: a big asterisk on this. She's the police commissioner. If
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: he interferes with her, she'll leave. And also there's a
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: deputy mayor that's called the Deputy mayor of Public Safety.
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: That deputy mayor oversees the police commissioner. So if he
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: puts the wrong person in there, who Jessica Tish does
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: not want to work for or take orders from, then
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: she'll leave. So he says he's made the decision to
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: retain her, but there's things he could do that would
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: make he knows would make her leave, make her quit.
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: And she's one police commissioner that does not need the job,
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: does not need the job. She could leave at any time.
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: So as far as the police, when.
• 39:37
  Speaker 13: We're talking about a response time that's closer to sixteen
• 39:39
  Speaker 13: minutes than when just five years ago it was closer
• 39:41
  Speaker 13: to ten. That is also something that is related to
• 39:44
  Speaker 13: us asking police officers to respond to nearly every crisis
• 39:47
  Speaker 13: we can think of. And it's time that we understand
• 39:49
  Speaker 13: the retention crisis is being related to a crisis where
• 39:52
  Speaker 13: we're asking police officers to respond to homelessness, to mental
• 39:55
  Speaker 13: health calls. It's time to actually allow them to be
• 39:57
  Speaker 13: police officers.
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: Now, we talked very fascinat He talks about a retention
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: crisis in relation to the retention crisis and the relation
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: of THEO, and you don't always know what he's saying.
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: But I don't know what Elly just said. He's still
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: on this idea of And first of all, did he
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: say response time is sixteen minutes? That's a long time.
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I was watching Blue Bloods last night.
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: A guy a woman called, there's a man with a gun,
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: but we'll be there in about sixteen minutes. It was
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: more like sixteen seconds on TV. But he's still on
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: this idea that you don't waste police responding to domestic
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: violence calls now, as cops will tell you, those can
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: be the most dangerous of all those domestic violence calls.
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: That's where you get there's real physical danger. You got
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: a raging maniac husband with a gun and knife. He
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: can't have social workers going there. And the important thing
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: to remember, the NYPD has tried this about forty different
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: times over the last thirty years. They've tried it. It
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: doesn't work. Social workers end up getting injured killed. First
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: of all, the social workers won't do it. They will
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: not go on these calls because they've seen what's happened
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: in the past and they've all said they won't do
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: it unless the police come with them. So if the
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: police are there, you don't need the social worker. But
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: it's not gonna work. His mom downy on hokl.
• 41:22
  Speaker 13: You know, I look forward to the relationship that we're
• 41:24
  Speaker 13: building to serve a common set of constituents, deserving.
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: Pleased to change her mind on buses.
• 41:29
  Speaker 13: I'm excited, just as I was in October twenty third
• 41:30
  Speaker 13: about'm making buses fast and free.
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: Fast and free. Right, How are you gonna make the
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: buses fast? How do you do that? They're stuck in traffic.
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: They can't go any faster than the cars in front
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: of them. I don't know what he's talking about. You
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: know who hit out during the whole election, Kirsten Gillibrand
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: do you remember her? Jilibrand anybody remember her? She's the
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: other senator in New York. You never see her.
• 41:53
  Speaker 14: You know.
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: Schumer is scheming and scamming to get on every TV
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: show he can she's in hiding. She's in witness protection.
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: He ever sees her during the whole election. She was
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: in hiding. Did not want to talk about it, but
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: she was asked about Mom Donnie.
• 42:05
  Speaker 15: I mean to make sure that I protect this city,
• 42:08
  Speaker 15: protect the mayor and the governor from whatever assault President
• 42:11
  Speaker 15: Trump tries to put on the people of New York City,
• 42:14
  Speaker 15: and we will stand united to fight against whatever President
• 42:16
  Speaker 15: Trump throws at us.
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna protect, I'm gonna protect. I thought she was
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: talking about against Mom Donnie. It's against Trump. So she's
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: kind of useless. You know. Schumer, he's on the way out.
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: He'll be gone pretty soon, if not from if not
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: stepping down from the Senate, he'll he'll definitely not be
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: the minority leader anymore. He's been doing that fake Sunday
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: press conference for years and years and years and years.
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: It's an old trick from the seventies, eighties, and nineties.
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: It doesn't work anymore, but he hasn't figured that out.
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: In the good old days, on Sunday, nothing happened, there
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: was no news, nothing happened, and Sunday night they still
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: had to do a six o'clock news and eleven o'clock news,
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: and the newspaper still had to put stories into nothing
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: was happening. So Schumer would do this press conference and
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: announce something, and it would get in the paper and
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: it would get on the newscasts because nothing else happened
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: on Someday, they were forced to use it. If he
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: did the press conference any other day of the week,
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: it wouldn't even pay attention, it wouldn't even show up.
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: But it worked for years. But it doesn't mean anything anymore.
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: There's media twenty four to seven, seven days a week.
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: Media is going NonStop, even if it's Twitter, even if
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: it's online, even if it's social media. So the Sunday
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: press conference means nothing. Oh yeah, you'll still get on
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: the six o'clock and eleven o'clock news, but nobody watches
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: that anymore. Local TV viewership is down like ninety percent
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: over the years, so it's kind of pointless to keep
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: doing that Sunday press conference. Hey, Bruce Blakeman definitely is
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: considering running for governor. He's the best county executive in America.
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: He'd be a great governor if we had to pick
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: one person to be the governor of New York. He's
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: the perfect pick. I like at least Stefanic, but Blakeman
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: would be better. He's a governor now, he's the governor
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: of Nassau County. He does a great job. She's a legislator.
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: But he's going to do a tour of upstate New York.
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: He's going to actually first he's going to do I
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: think Albany, Westchester, Yeah, Hudson Valley. He'll go up there,
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: tour the place, speak to voters, do some events. Then
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: he'll go up to the North Country, which is where
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: Alice Stephonic is from. And then he might be saying, well,
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: that's a little pushy. No, No, it's a smart thing
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: to do. It's a very smart thing to do. He
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: just won a big reelection victory, very convincing, a re
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: election victory twelve points, won by twelve points. But if
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: you're not sure should he run for governor? Could he win?
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: A smart executive? If you're not sure, you go test it.
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: You go test the waters. You go upstate and talk
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: to voters and meet with them, and see how you
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: get along with them, see how they get along with you,
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: see what the reaction is to you. If you're going
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: to make a decision, and that's what a good manager does.
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: Goe the waters to you, go there, feel it out.
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: So that's what he's going to do. And he's said
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: he'll make a decision in the coming months. I think
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: he had to decide by February. The Republican State Convention
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: is in February. Said, I'm looking forward to meeting people
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: up there, hearing from them, seeing what we can do.
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: Smart thing to do. Now, Blakeman something would be the
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: underdog because Stephanic is better known for the Republican primary
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: and upstate. Also, she's got a lot of support from
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: GOP officials, the donors like her. Republican Party Chairman Ed
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: Cox likes her. But now, I mean, she'd be great.
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: We love Eli Stanic. Blakeman would actually be a better governor.
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: But we'll see what happens. Jack Schlossberg he's the latest
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: really disastrous Democratic candidate. He's the grandson of JFK. He's
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: the son of Caroline Kennedy. He's a real whackle. You're
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: going to start seeing the videos all over the place
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: that he's put on YouTube. They are I think I
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: have one on my Twitter. Yeah, go check that out.
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: Or his TikTok his Instagram just a complete creepy, weirdo
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: wacko and a lot of people point out he's had
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: some weird fixation on JD. Fans's wife Usha, making creepy
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: comments about her. And there was one time where even
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: he did a poll on his Twitter Who's hotter? Whosha
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: Vance or Jackie Oh, which was kind of strange to people.
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: Is jack Jackie Oh? Jacqueline on Nassis is his grandmother?
• 46:36
  Speaker 2: Who does a poll on how hot his grandmother is
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: very very weird then, I mean, he's just had a
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: series of wacko, ludicrous tweets and posts. There was one
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: where he claimed Alan Dershowitz murdered his wife yeah in February,
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: or ranting ridiculous and accusing Alan Dershwitz of killing his
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: own wife. Dershowitz threatened the defamation lawsuit again. There was
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: another series where Schlosberg shared naked pictures of himself as
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: a kid. I mean, he's just a complete nutjob wacko
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: sleeze Paul. There's another one where he talked about his
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: recipe for jew blood. His words, jew blood. The recipe
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: includes two ounces of jew blood Ashkenazi, not sephardic, four
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: cups of mail. I don't want to say the word
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: baked at three hundred degrees until totally dry like your wife.
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: This is Jack Schlosberg. Now he's running these ads online
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: as he wants to run for Jerry Nadler's seat. And
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: in the ads he's dressed nicely and he speaks very properly,
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: and he says, I want to do what I can
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: to hold him. I don't know. You can be very
• 47:44
  Speaker 2: formal now, but the internet is forever and all these
• 47:47
  Speaker 2: videos are going to emerge. You're going to see them all.
• 47:50
  Speaker 2: He is a complete and total nutjob wacko. Hey, Jimmy
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: Fayley will be within a few minutes. We'll take some
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: calls next. Eight hundred three to two one zero seven
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: ten is the number. Eight hundred three two one zero
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: seven ten.
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: Set up said on the iHeartRadio app to wo R

  Speaker 1: wo R.
• 48:18
  Speaker 2: Hey, let's take some calls. Eight hundred three two one

  Speaker 2: zero seven ten is the number. Let's go to doctor

  Speaker 2: Bob on Long Island. Doctor Bob a great surgeon, doctor Bob.
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: How you doing?
• 48:28
  Speaker 16: Thanks? Mark? Yes, O good? Thanks Mark. You know, I
• 48:32
  Speaker 16: think it's terrific that we've got two fantastic candidates with
• 48:35
  Speaker 16: Blakeman and a last Stephonic. And I think that you're right.
• 48:39
  Speaker 16: Blakeman is better as an executive to be governor. And
• 48:43
  Speaker 16: what about the fantastic and brilliant Stephanic is a tremendous legislator.
• 48:48
  Speaker 16: Have her go into the senatorial position. We have two
• 48:52
  Speaker 16: losers representing New York at this point.
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good idea. Blakeman would be the better governor,
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: although we'd be happy with Stephanic, but Blakeman is a
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: governor all in Long Island. Stephanic would be a great senator.
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: Very good, Thanks for Colin. Let's go to Linda in
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: Long Island. Linda, how you doing?
• 49:10

  Speaker 2: Matter you sound a little depressed.
• 49:17
  Speaker 16: I am.
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: Hello Mark.
• 49:21
  Speaker 11: Okay, So I saw Schlatsburgh and you know he is
• 49:29
  Speaker 11: really creepy besides being dumb like his mother. But at
• 49:34
  Speaker 11: least a mayor looks good. Did you see him?
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: Who looks good?
• 49:38
  Speaker 11: Slats mayor looks good?
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: Mayor?

  Speaker 10: Yeah?
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: Are you talking Donny slots. Yeah, it looks good, right,
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: am I the only one that got lost in this conversation.
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: Where are you in Long Island?
• 50:01
  Speaker 6: It's the secret.
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: The mental Institution? No, where do you live in? Long Island?
• 50:08
  Speaker 12: Park?
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: Floral Park?
• 50:09
  Speaker 11: Right? The mental Institution, Laurel Park.
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: That's almost Long Island. It's sort of half Queen's half
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: Long Island.
• 50:15
  Speaker 11: Right, that's right, that's right exactly.
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: That's where North Shore Towers is right, Yes, all right,
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: you're right on the border there. All right, thanks for
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: calling Linda. Let's go to Tom and Queen's Tom.
• 50:27
  Speaker 8: How you doing, Hey, Mark, good morning. I have concern
• 50:33
  Speaker 8: with what you're saying about the Blasio versus Mandamie. At
• 50:36
  Speaker 8: least with the Blasio, he was lazy and he's definitely
• 50:40
  Speaker 8: liked to set off smoke detectives. With Mandami, I think
• 50:43
  Speaker 8: he likes. I think he's got a real agenda that's
• 50:46
  Speaker 8: gonna work.
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the argument that Deblasio was a lazy guy
• 50:49
  Speaker 2: who never even came to work and did nothing. But
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: that means his team ran everything. So we saw what
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: they'll do, and you got the same team running things
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: now with Mom Donnie, and I think man Donnie's not lazy.
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: These socialists are all like that, Okay, right, I gotta
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: go back and watch the Blasio campaigning. I see if
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: he was. You know a lot of times these Deblasio
• 51:12
  Speaker 2: was a socialist. Remember he spent his honeymoon in Cuba.
• 51:15
  Speaker 11: Uh.
• 51:15
  Speaker 2: I gotta go back and watch him campaign. Was he
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: campaign the same way man Donnie was, with all these
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: promises and the fast talking. You gotta go see what
• 51:23
  Speaker 2: how he campaigning? You know, Mam Donnie most likely a
• 51:27
  Speaker 2: con man. And who knows, maybe he was counting the socialists.
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: Who knows. He could be like that. But Delasi, he
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: just doesn't show up for work. Let's go to uh
• 51:36
  Speaker 2: Vincent and Brooklyn Vincent. How you doing?
• 51:38
  Speaker 14: Oh, Mark? You're making me cracked up. Mark, Zora Mandami,
• 51:42
  Speaker 14: according to me, looks like Bucky Beef or Alvin the Chipmunk. Mark.
• 51:49
  Speaker 14: I've been going to Milan in Italy for years and
• 51:52
  Speaker 14: years and years. Anyway, Milan at night they have actually
• 51:57
  Speaker 14: de facto free And I say this because the subway
• 52:02
  Speaker 14: system shuts down from about eleven thirty to five in
• 52:06
  Speaker 14: the morning, but they have bus lines that paralleled the
• 52:11
  Speaker 14: existing subway route, so that if you get out of
• 52:13
  Speaker 14: work and your train is shut down. You could take
• 52:18
  Speaker 14: a bus. But when the bus goes by all the
• 52:21
  Speaker 14: places where there's the clubs, where all the there's all
• 52:24
  Speaker 14: the nefarious action going on, the kids come on the bus,
• 52:28
  Speaker 14: the guys come on the bus, and nobody pays. They
• 52:31
  Speaker 14: actually have tickets. So sometimes the controllers they go on
• 52:35
  Speaker 14: they're like they're like bud friends in safety offices, like
• 52:40
  Speaker 14: what Mandami wants to replace the cops with. And they
• 52:43
  Speaker 14: go on the bus and they check your ticket to
• 52:45
  Speaker 14: see who paid. There are times when the ambulance has
• 52:49
  Speaker 14: to come to get the ticket controller to take them
• 52:53
  Speaker 14: off the bus because the people becoming sense they need
• 52:57
  Speaker 14: to beat up the ticket controller, or if they really
• 53:01
  Speaker 14: get crazy, they go beat up the bus driver and
• 53:04
  Speaker 14: they go beat up the guy who will get tics check.
• 53:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're not exactly cheering us up here. This doesn't
• 53:10
  Speaker 2: sound good.
• 53:11
  Speaker 14: No, but that's what we're gonna have a fun Tommy
• 53:13
  Speaker 14: gets his way.
• 53:14
  Speaker 2: Thanks for cheering us, So now I know I know

  Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm good.
• 54:26
  Speaker 12: I have.
• 54:27
  Speaker 7: I got a lot of family that are getting ready

  Speaker 7: to visit New York before we defund the police. They're
• 54:34
  Speaker 7: trying to come before them with Mom Donnie stuff kicks.
• 54:36
  Speaker 7: And he's actually good for tourism right now because everybody's
• 54:39
  Speaker 7: making a bonus trip this week and next.
• 54:43
  Speaker 2: You know, so far he tired everybody from the Deblasio administration.
• 54:47
  Speaker 2: We got through eight years at Deblasio, didn't we.
• 54:51
  Speaker 7: No, I's by we you mean Florida real estate agents. Yes,
• 54:58
  Speaker 7: they were so busy, but they did get through.
• 55:00
  Speaker 6: It's don't ever forget build.
• 55:02
  Speaker 7: De Blasio made our number one restaurant chain a place
• 55:06
  Speaker 7: called this Space for rent. Oh, that was a very
• 55:10
  Speaker 7: big place underd Blasio.
• 55:13
  Speaker 6: So I don't like it.
• 55:15
  Speaker 7: Well, yes, we're gonna have fun. We're New Yorkers, and
• 55:18
  Speaker 7: that's the one thing about us. If you live here,
• 55:20
  Speaker 7: I always say, New York is a spiritual dominatrix. If
• 55:24
  Speaker 7: you're gonna live here, it's because you like getting beat up.
• 55:27
  Speaker 6: In a roundabout way.
• 55:28
  Speaker 7: Anybody listening on Long Island right now who drives into
• 55:31
  Speaker 7: the city every day like I do, you have to
• 55:33
  Speaker 7: like the beating on some level to keep showing up
• 55:36
  Speaker 7: and taking it.
• 55:37
  Speaker 2: No, it's not that bad. You know, Hey, you work
• 55:41
  Speaker 2: at Fox. You walk out of Fox. It's so beautiful.
• 55:43
  Speaker 2: There's Radio City there's Rockefeller Center, there's the Tree. It's
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: still New York, Isn't it still the greatest city? Yeah?
• 55:51
  Speaker 6: Yeah, No.
• 55:51
  Speaker 7: The truth is there nothing that can compare it. You know,
• 55:54
  Speaker 7: even if it takes a dip under Mom dying, The
• 55:57
  Speaker 7: truth is, you know, Stefanic announcing she was going to
• 56:00
  Speaker 7: run when she did is a real check on anything
• 56:03
  Speaker 7: Mom Donnie wants to do. Because Hokeel doesn't want to
• 56:06
  Speaker 7: get that radical, knowing she's gonna be in a tight race,
• 56:09
  Speaker 7: and she's you know, Hochle already has her limitations. I mean,
• 56:13
  Speaker 7: she's basically governor because she was the only woman in
• 56:16
  Speaker 7: Albany that was too annoying for Andrew Cuomo to hit on.
• 56:20
  Speaker 6: You know, had she'd.
• 56:22
  Speaker 7: Been a little bit easier to deal with, he probably
• 56:24
  Speaker 7: would have got me to her too, and she'd be
• 56:27
  Speaker 7: out of there, and god knows what would have happened.
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: Uh. You know, these people leaving New York, they moved
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: to Florida, they moved to North Carolina. What's the first
• 56:34
  Speaker 2: thing to doing. I read the New York Post. They
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: still listen to New York radio. But they they'll all
• 56:40
  Speaker 2: be back at one point, won't they. They'll all be back.
• 56:42
  Speaker 7: Yes, they will try, because that's that is actually what happens.
• 56:46
  Speaker 7: Every one of my friends who has moved to Florida
• 56:49
  Speaker 7: tells me about how they you know, we're gonna we
• 56:51
  Speaker 7: gotta find a pizza place. Then we're gonna go to
• 56:53
  Speaker 7: the bagel place.
• 56:55
  Speaker 6: Oh my god. So you're just doing this with more humidity.
• 56:59
  Speaker 7: You know, that's all you're really doing in the over
• 57:02
  Speaker 7: all scheme of things. And I know they were perks,
• 57:05
  Speaker 7: but if you're from here and you've spent enough time here,
• 57:08
  Speaker 7: you're not supposed to leave. Like you know those stories
• 57:11
  Speaker 7: mark about how someone smokes every day till they're ninety
• 57:14
  Speaker 7: and never gets sick, and then they quit smoking and
• 57:17
  Speaker 7: drop dead.
• 57:18
  Speaker 2: In like three weeks.
• 57:20
  Speaker 7: Like at some point, the bad adverse things we do
• 57:24
  Speaker 7: become like standard operating procedure for some of us. I mean,
• 57:28
  Speaker 7: it's there's no way of really knowing. But New York's one.
• 57:30
  Speaker 6: Of those things.
• 57:31
  Speaker 7: If it's ingrained in who you are, you're not going
• 57:33
  Speaker 7: to be right if you leave it behind.
• 57:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well no, it's it's still the greatest thing in
• 57:38
  Speaker 2: the world. Hey, mom, Donnie's already done one great thing.
• 57:41
  Speaker 2: You got rid of Cuomo. Don't you think we won't
• 57:42
  Speaker 2: see Cuomo again as a candidate, will we?
• 57:46
  Speaker 7: I mean, listen, save for an upcoming appearance on season
• 57:50
  Speaker 7: fifty two of Dancing with the Stars. I do think,
• 57:53
  Speaker 7: I do think it's over, you know, old handsy Andy.
• 57:59
  Speaker 6: But Curtiss will be back. I think you already launched.
• 58:02
  Speaker 7: I think Curtis already.
• 58:03
  Speaker 6: Launched his next campaign. I'm pretty sure.
• 58:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well Curtis, But hey, the shutdown, the Democrats certainly
• 58:10
  Speaker 2: accomplished a lot. Could you tell us what that was?
• 58:14
  Speaker 7: Well, you know, we did break a record for margaritas
• 58:18
  Speaker 7: an airport bar Okay as a nation, those those flight delays,
• 58:25
  Speaker 7: the TGI Fridays broke a Potato Skins record.
• 58:28
  Speaker 6: I mean, nothing else went on.
• 58:29
  Speaker 7: Nobody, nobody could get, Nobody got off the ground. You know,
• 58:34
  Speaker 7: it was such it was such.
• 58:35
  Speaker 6: Silly posturing by them.
• 58:38
  Speaker 7: And you know it's clear now they really didn't even
• 58:41
  Speaker 7: know why they did it. You know, they said obamakay.
• 58:44
  Speaker 7: You know, well, you know healthcare and healthcare was too expensive,
• 58:47
  Speaker 7: but they passed the healthcare bill.
• 58:48
  Speaker 6: It was their healthcare bill.
• 58:50
  Speaker 7: So how do you blame us for healthcare being too expensive?
• 58:53
  Speaker 7: You know I mentioned this on TV the other night,
• 58:55
  Speaker 7: I said, if the Democrats saying healthcare is too expensive,
• 58:57
  Speaker 7: it's like Bill Cosby saying the drinks are too strong.
• 59:00
  Speaker 6: I'm like, dude, you made it.
• 59:03
  Speaker 7: You made the beverage there. You've no legs to.
• 59:06
  Speaker 6: Stand on here.
• 59:08
  Speaker 2: So, yeah, this Affordable Care Act, if it's so affordable,
• 59:11
  Speaker 2: what the hell does it need a subsidy? If it's affordable,
• 59:13
  Speaker 2: they've never explained now and if yeah, if the fact
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: that they keep talking about it means it's not working. Otherwise,
• 59:19
  Speaker 2: if it was working, it wouldn't be an issue. Yeah,
• 59:22
  Speaker 2: that's that's the.
• 59:23
  Speaker 6: Point, you know.
• 59:24
  Speaker 7: And everybody who got duped into this, you know, under
• 59:28
  Speaker 7: the auspices of you know, well it's gonna be cheaper
• 59:31
  Speaker 7: and we're gonna help more people out and blah blahlah blah,
• 59:34
  Speaker 7: those people are very silent, Like you know what I mean,
• 59:37
  Speaker 7: Like Obama is it's his bill, it's Obamacare. You don't
• 59:40
  Speaker 7: see him out there defending this thing right now. He's
• 59:43
  Speaker 7: you know, calling Trumpet authoritarian and everything in between. But
• 59:47
  Speaker 7: nobody who was involved with the original.
• 59:49
  Speaker 6: Passage of this thing. You know.
• 59:50
  Speaker 7: It's like if you were the captain of the Titanic,
• 59:53
  Speaker 7: you're not really.
• 59:53
  Speaker 6: Going to brag about the course you charted.
• 59:55
  Speaker 7: You know a lot of people go left, you know
• 59:58
  Speaker 7: when they get to Nova Scotia.
• 59:59
  Speaker 11: But not me.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 6: And nobody wants to own it.
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 7: And that's my favorite thing about right now is they're
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 7: pivoting to everything. But who passed the bill to begin with?
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 7: Sending with a shutdown? And you know this, Oh, the
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 7: Republican shutdown. Ah, the Republican shutdown. These evil Republicans shutdown
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 7: the government. In the midde of the government opened, They're like,
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 7: how dare they open the government?
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 6: Republicans?
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 7: What kind of monster?
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 6: They're not? Various people.
• 1:00:24
