Hour 3: Marco Rubio’s future · Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Well, you know that Marco Rubio was in Paris for
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: a G7 meeting. None of the heads of state were there.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: It was all foreign ministers, and that's important. And he had,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: of course, private meetings with everybody. The thing to take
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: away from this, however, is that Marco Rubio is a
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: global rock star.
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: I mean, they had press conferences.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: All the foreign ministers had press conferences that were– Attended,
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: but not highly attended. Marco Rubio, the room was packed
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: to find out what he was going to say. And
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: he spoke for about a half an hour. And he's excellent.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: I mean, he handles every single question that is thrown
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: with him perfectly, exactly the way you would want him
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: to handle it. He gives a little bit of information,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: but not too much. The big talk was about Ukraine,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: because he met with the Ukrainian foreign minister and the
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: G7 counterpart, and they had parallel talks at the same
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: time with the Russians. And so they wanted to find
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: out exactly what came of that. Of course, he's going
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: to say this.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: Our goals are the same. We want the war to end,
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: and we want there never to be a war again.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: So that requires not just ending the war, but also
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: ensuring that Ukraine never again feels threatened for its security.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: We all share the same goal.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: So what he's saying is in these talks, and you
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: can figure this out on your own, but in these talks,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: what he's saying is that Russia, it sounds like if
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: these peace talks go through, Russia is going to get
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: some territory. But in return, they have to make sure
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: that Ukraine is never threatened again. Does that mean joining NATO?
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: No.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: Does that mean that the United States has a base there?
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: That still has to be determined. But it was a
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: successful meeting. Of course, Iran came up.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: Oh, I think Iran would love a deal. The problem
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: is the conditions they continue to place are absurd. Like,
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: they're not even serious right now. But that could change, certainly.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: I mean, the pain that they're feeling is eventually you
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: have to eat. Eventually you have to be able to
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: pay your own fighters and your own security forces and
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: so forth. Eventually the economic realities penetrate the skull of
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: even the most radical lunatic.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he defended constantly the Trump administration's diplomatic and sanctions
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: against Iran. And he said that the proposals that they're making,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: he used two terms that made the news unacceptable and outrageous.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: So it doesn't sound like there's any deal in the offing.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: But as he said, it could change any day because
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: there's an economic stranglehold on them right now. He also
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: said something interesting about about the boats that are getting through.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: He said we're getting through more than at any time
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: in the blockade right now, the oil ships that are
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: getting through. But he said that we're still having difficulty
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: with our NATO allies to help us with the blockade
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: because as long as there is any threat to their ships,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: they don't want to get out there. As soon as
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: they're told they have the go-ahead, he says they're going
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: to be out there helping with the blockade. And one
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: last thing, Curtis, he did talk in general about the
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Middle East.
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: Talk about all the instability in the Middle East. Houthis,
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: the militias in Iraq, Hezbollah, Hamas, the civil war that
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: occurred in Syria that almost destroyed that country. What do
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: these things all have in common? Behind every single one
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: of these destabilizing activities in the Middle East, there's one
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: common denominator, the Iranian regime.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and that was his answer to the fact that
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: it's not just about Israel. This is the entire Middle East.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: The destabilization of the Middle East is because of Iran.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: And he also talked about how many American soldiers were killed.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: But he is, as I said at the beginning, he
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: is a rock star. I mean, of the Trump administration,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: I think he is the shining light. Now, he says
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: he's not going to run for president. He says he's
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: going to support J.D.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: Vance.
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: But I wonder if that's going to change. Well, he's
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: not a rock star for me. In what you just said, oh,
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: all problems go to Iran. ISIS was at war with Iran,
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: at war with us. We worked with Iran to extinguish ISIS.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: But he didn't mention ISIS, did he?
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: No. No, but he said all problems lead to Iran.
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: There was a day that we were partners with Iran
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: in eradicating ISIS. So his history is somewhat warped. But
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: he didn't say ISIS. So how is his history warped? No,
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: he said Iran. Iran did not create ISIS. We were
• 4:45
  Speaker 5: at war with ISIS. And you know who our allies
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: were side by side sometimes?
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: Iran.
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: Iran.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: In liquidating ISIS.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: So because he left that out, you're saying that, oh
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: my God, that was horrible.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: That was wrong. He didn't even mention them. Not the
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: rock star to me.
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: When campaigning with Donald Trump, he got on a bully
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: pulpit in Texas and said Donald Trump was the greatest
• 5:08
  Speaker 5: president of all time.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: There's the real reason right there. Well, again, I'd like
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: you to explain that. Greater than Washington, greater than Lincoln.
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: Number two, he said Israel doesn't need our money any
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: longer to purchase weapons, which is the best thing that
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: can happen is like, let us sever this relationship with Israel.
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: Now the president has said no money January 1st. And
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: Marco Rubio has been very pro-Israel, very pro-APAC, basically said, yeah, yeah,
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: that's it. They got enough to purchase their own weapons.
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: But the one thing that he has not explained is
• 5:46
  Speaker 5: after Maduro was taken out, that was back almost like
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: January 3rd. Remember that amazing intervention?
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: U.S.
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: Forces went in. They came out. Maduro is now facing
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: trial along with his wife.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Amazing.
• 6:03
  Speaker 5: And then Marco Rubio is in charge of the Western
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: Hemisphere for the United States because he's not only the
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: Secretary of State, he's also the National Security Advisor for
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: President Donald Trump.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: He wears two hats.
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: He said it's just a matter of days before Cuba
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: collapses because our naval blockade didn't allow a drop of
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: oil to go into Cuba, not even olive oil. How
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: have they survived since? Nobody brings, I would be the
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: first one to say, Mr. Secretary of State, you said
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: to us it would be regime change in Cuba. It
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: was just a matter of days and weeks. And yet
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: here it is. It's after the midterm elections. And it's
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: still functioning.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: Maybe barely. But they're still functioning.
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: They're not capitulating. They're not negotiating with us. Our CIA
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: director went over there a few months ago, Radcliffe. They
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: repulsed him.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: They said, nope. No, we're holding on.
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: They wanted Raul Castro so they could put him in
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: a cell with Maduro. They wouldn't give up Raul Castro.
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: So I would say, Secretary of State, you told us
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: the blockade would work in Cuba.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: Well, it's not over yet.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: But the biggest thing that has happened in all of
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: this that you're leaving out of the equation is that
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: China is now coming out very publicly. Their foreign minister
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: was over in China, coming out very publicly saying, we
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: support Cuba, we will do anything we can to help Cuba,
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: and we are against any blockade, and we will keep
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: fighting any blockade of Cuba. So the fact that China
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: has gotten so publicly involved, they were always involved, but
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: this is very public now, it makes it a whole
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: different problem. It escalates the problem, at least diplomatically, especially
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: because we want a better relationship with China, and this
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: may get.
• 7:56
  Speaker 6: In the way.
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: Well, the president visits China next week for an economic conference.
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: He'll be there with President Xi.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: We'll see.
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: But Marco Rubio was set to become the new president
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: of Cuba. They had a government-in-waiting in southern Florida, promised
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: an insurrection. Haven't seen anything.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, these things just don't happen quick enough for you.
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: Well, that's why I don't believe that these blockades economically
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: strangle a country to the point where they have to
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: say no mas, no mas.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: Because Cuba, more so than Iran, should have been strangled.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: They have nothing. They're an island.
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: Nothing coming in, nothing going out. Mexico can't export to them. Obviously,
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: Venezuela no more, not Red China, not anyone else.
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: So how are they surviving? I don't know.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: We'll do a deeper dive into the situation inside Cuba.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: I don't have the answer for you just yet, but
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: I'm sure I can get that information.
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: He should have been able to do something, but maybe
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: it was more difficult than he would acknowledge because everything
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: with the Trump administration is, oh, it'll end tomorrow. They'll capitulate.
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: There'll be insurrection. There'll be regime change. Are you for Cuba?
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: What is your position on this? You just want to
• 9:04
  Speaker 5: say bad things about the administration. We should have had
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: an open relationship with Cuba. We have an open relationship
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: with Red China, a communist country, right? But not with Cuba?
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: Does that make any sense? Yeah, it does to me.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: I mean, Cuba has been anti-American since Castro got into office.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: Cuba has been pro-Chinese and pro-Russia since. and basically a
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: communist country ever since they got in. No, I don't
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: want a good relationship with Cuba. I completely defend what
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: the administration has done.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: What harm can Cuba do to us? Seriously, what harm?
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: They can work as a... Listen, we had the Cuban
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: Missile Crisis where missiles were going in there. That was
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: a long time. I understand that, but you understand from
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: that the situation we're in with Cuba so close to
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: our continent... and being great friends with our adversaries, you
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: understand that that's a big problem. If we can get
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: rid of that, we should try to get rid of it.
• 10:00
  Speaker 6: Rid of it.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: I've been to Cuba. Listen, you just don't like anything
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: this administration does.
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: Because I don't buy the propaganda crap from either the
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: Democrats or Republicans.
• 10:09
  Speaker 7: Oh, no, you buy into the Democrats. You buy into
• 10:11
  Speaker 7: everything the Democrats say. You never challenge authority. Rubio was
• 10:15
  Speaker 7: wrong on this. He promised us there would be regime change.
• 10:18
  Speaker 7: It wasn't Rubio's call, by the way.
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: Yes, it was.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: It was not. It was not Rubio's call. It's always
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: the president's call. Okay, so what happened? How are they
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: still operating? How are they still functioning? How fast do
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: you want these things to happen?
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: No, no, no.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: Blockade. Are they a problem right now? Are they a problem?
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: Are they a problem? Answer the question. They haven't been
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: a problem since the Cuban Missile Crisis, Larry. Oh, they
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: have been. They have been.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: They have been the root of drugs coming into our
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: country for a long time.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: The root of drugs. Maybe fentanyl, Larry? Yes.
• 10:53
  Speaker 7: Oh, really?
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: Fentanyl came through Cuba. Like fentanyl is coming through Venezuela.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: You don't think.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: They made money on that? No, it was coming through Venezuela.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: You're absolutely correct. But Cuba worked with Venezuela.
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: Like all the fentanyl that came through Canada that Trump said, oh,
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: fentanyl is coming through Canada.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: What is wrong with you? Larry, it's all nonsense. No,
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: it's not all nonsense. It's all propaganda. How many people
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: died of fentanyl that you're saying is all propaganda? Oh,
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: and it came through Cuba.
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: You're saying, no, I said they helped. They helped. They
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: were an adversary to the United States. You don't buy that.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: You couldn't be more hopelessly wrong, Larry. Are they an
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: adversary or not? Are they an adversary or not? No,
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: they're not an adversary. Then you're a liar. Because Marco
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: Rubio said, oh, they're going to work with us. We
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: have a regime change taking place. Where is it, Larry?
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: You don't ask those questions because you just bowed to
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: the party that you support.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: I don't just bow to the party I support. I
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: think that many presidents wanted to take out Cuba, and
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: you have one that did. You have a guy that
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: now has done things that other presidents have said they
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: were going to do. And you have a problem with
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: him because you have something personal against him.
• 11:55
  Speaker 7: Iran.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: That war in Iran. That was brilliant. One of the two.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: That was brilliant. Bibi's war in Iran. That was brilliant, Trump.
• 12:01
  Speaker 5: Anyway, up next, a Long Island man accused of faking
• 12:06
  Speaker 5: Purple Hearts, which is a real problem. When we come
• 12:08
  Speaker 5: to Veterans Day and all the commemorations and the marches
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: in support of the vets, stealing $ 81, 000 from veteran groups.
• 12:16
  Speaker 5: Plus a chance to see Tommy James and the Shondells next.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: Brandon. Well, on this.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: Veterans Day, we honor all of the real veterans who
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: serve this country favorably and honorably. But there is one
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: man in Long Island that has been arrested. He was
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: discharged from the U.S. Army, but he has falsely cast
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: himself as a decorated combat veteran who and.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: A prisoner of war.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: And because of that, he was able to steal tens
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: of thousands of dollars from veterans organizations. He's been prosecuted.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: Ray Tierney is the prosecutor. David Agstrabie, age 58, is
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: accused of receiving benefits and stealing money from the American
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: Legion by falsely portraying himself as the recipient of two
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Purple Hearts. When he had, in fact, received a bad
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: conduct discharge following a court-martial conviction in 1988, he was
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: also getting veterans' benefits.
• 13:25
  Speaker 6: Every single cent of that money was taken out of
• 13:29
  Speaker 6: another more deserving or a deserving veterans' pocket.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: That was Suffolk County District Attorney Ray Tierney, who said
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: during a news conference yesterday that This guy is the
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: most amazing scumbag you can ever see.
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: Listen to this.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: He's accused of obtaining a leadership position in the Hampton
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: Bays American Legion. Because he was such a hero, they
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: put him in there. And he stole more than $ 81, 000
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: from the organization. The organization allegedly used to pay for
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: various personal expenses. This is what he used it for.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: Various personal expenses, including Amazon purchases. residential electric and cable bills,
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: a private business membership program, streaming services, travel and leisure,
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: clothing and accessories, and other purposes. This is all money
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: that was supposed to go to veterans.
• 14:26
  Speaker 6: During the time he claimed to be a prisoner of war,
• 14:28
  Speaker 6: he was a prisoner. He was just a prisoner in
• 14:31
  Speaker 6: upstate New York for a grand larceny conviction.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so he's going to be put away for a long,
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: long time because he's now charged with the very same thing.
• 14:40
  Speaker 5: You know... if it was just the false credentials alone
• 14:44
  Speaker 5: and he hadn't ripped off money, he could have run
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: for Senator like Blumenthal in Connecticut and been elected. You know,
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: the guy who supposedly served in Vietnam didn't even, couldn't
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: even find Vietnam on a national geographic map. So it
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: all ends up on how you fake it. But there are, unfortunately,
• 15:04
  Speaker 5: there are men and women out there who will wear
• 15:07
  Speaker 5: a ribbon, an honor that they didn't receive. And, It's
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: a felony crime. It's a felony crime to do so.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: Well, a lot of people in the talkbacks want to
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: talk about Veterans and Veterans Day.
• 15:17
  Speaker 8: My father was a barber in Nutley, New Jersey, Joe Bono.
• 15:22
  Speaker 8: He was a famous barber, I must say. Anyway, when
• 15:25
  Speaker 8: a veteran would come in and get a haircut, he
• 15:28
  Speaker 8: would always say, and it didn't have to be Veterans Day,
• 15:31
  Speaker 8: thank you for your service and never charge them. I
• 15:34
  Speaker 8: think that's old school respect, and I think we need
• 15:38
  Speaker 8: to bring it back.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 15:40
  Speaker 9: I would like to say Happy Veterans Day to all veterans,
• 15:44
  Speaker 9: but today especially our Vietnam vets, one of which was
• 15:49
  Speaker 9: my husband, Dominic, who passed away 17 years ago at
• 15:54
  Speaker 9: the age of 63 from Agent Orange cancer. So many
• 15:59
  Speaker 9: Vietnam vets have passed, and if they haven't passed, they're
• 16:04
  Speaker 9: very ill from the effects of Agent Orange cancer.
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: Thank you for that. Thank you for remembering not just

  Speaker 11: duty or in reserve forces, this Veterans Day is being
• 16:35
  Speaker 11: marked amid an ongoing war with Iran.
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: But I do think that this war that Trump has
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: gotten us into has made people perhaps a little bit
• 16:44
  Speaker 5: more reflective about what it means to us.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: To put soldiers and the military in harm's way. It's
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: very important to honor these folks. So if you see veterans,

  Speaker 12: Even talking to Republicans one by one, They were trying
• 17:45
  Speaker 12: to kind of talk through this. On one end, they
• 17:47
  Speaker 12: do acknowledge they have concerns about the war, how long
• 17:50
  Speaker 12: it's going to last. But on the other end, they
• 17:53
  Speaker 12: don't exactly want to see this impeachment effort move forward,

• 19:37
  Speaker 5: He was at 100 Skimahorn Street yesterday, indicted on murder
• 19:40
  Speaker 5: charges of a Hispanic woman who was running along the
• 19:44
  Speaker 5: Bell Parkway, who eventually perished from her wounds.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: You have T.
• 19:50
  Speaker 5: You have paraprofessionals, you have residents in the area who
• 19:56
  Speaker 5: all joined together in protest outside of PS 200, where
• 20:00
  Speaker 5: he was a paraprofessional, actually in class with children. He
• 20:05
  Speaker 5: had been a police officer for six months and decided,
• 20:08
  Speaker 5: I'm leaving. goes to the USMC, the Marine Corps, they
• 20:13
  Speaker 5: wash him out, psychiatric disability, comes back, says to the NYPD,
• 20:19
  Speaker 5: I want to rejoin. They said, no way, you have
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: a psychological problem. And so now he needs a job. Now,
• 20:25
  Speaker 5: while he's at home, he's threatening the family to chop
• 20:29
  Speaker 5: him up into little pieces. They drag him away for
• 20:32
  Speaker 5: a psychiatric observation. He then kills the house pet. Uh,
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: His sister certainly knew that. She's living there.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: Well, guess what?
• 20:39
  Speaker 5: She happened to be a paraprofessional at PS200. His aunt
• 20:44
  Speaker 5: was an assistant principal nearby. They probably went to their
• 20:47
  Speaker 5: friends in the Department of Education, dumbest organization ever that
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: weighs $ 44 billion of our money every year. Say, hey,
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: can you, you know, we got a relative. Can you
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: find a position? So they hired him part-time as a paraprofessional,
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: and then they put him on full-time, even though there
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: were 10 complaints internally from teachers and others in the school.
• 21:08
  Speaker 5: They said the guy is wigging out, he's coming in disheveled,
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: he's mumbling to himself, and nothing was done. And you
• 21:17
  Speaker 5: know what the Department of Education said yesterday? He went
• 21:20
  Speaker 5: through a complete background check, filled out our questionnaire. Oh,
• 21:24
  Speaker 5: I'm sure he did. But did you actually check on
• 21:27
  Speaker 5: his answers? And the answer appears to be no. What
• 21:30
  Speaker 5: a disgrace.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: No, it's a disgrace to the Department of Education that
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: they allowed him anywhere near children.
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: I agree with you.
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: We got another crazy person from New York. It seems like,
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: and I don't know what the immigration status is of
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: this gentleman that you're talking about, but the immigration status
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: of somebody that tried to hijack a plane out of
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: Newark is that he's here illegally. But in this story
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: is just, wait till you hear all the details of it.
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: This was a plane leaving from Newark International to New Orleans.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: It was United Flight 2174. There were a total of
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: 52 people on board, six crew members, 46 passengers. And
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: out of nowhere, the plane at around 9.30 on two
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: nights ago, around 9.30 at night, the pilot sends out
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: a level four threat alert. That is the highest alert
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: that can be sent out. And he reported a hijacking.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: Now here's what happened. This out of control passenger who's
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: barely spoke any in English, except he could say the
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: word hijack, tried to get up to the front of
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: the plane. Now, before he went up to the front
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: of the plane, uh, the flight attendants noticed that he
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: put on all black, put on all black, and then
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: walked up and tried to get in the cockpit. And
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: I will tell you this, you know, your flight attendants, man,
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: the flight attendants are your security. More than the pilots,
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: more than anybody else, they are your security. They were
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: able to, this is a crazy man now, spoke little English.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: He is from the Bronx. He's 34 years old in
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: the country illegally. He's trying to get into the cockpit.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: He claims he has a bomb. And these flight attendants
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: were able to talk him down, talk him into the
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: back of the plane where he sat down. And what's
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: amazing about this story is not only the job they did,
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: putting themselves in danger, talking this guy down as they
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: locked the cockpit doors so nobody could possibly get in
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: there for a hijacking. But then all of the passengers
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: that got off the plane said they had no idea
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: this was happening. They never heard anything. There was reporters
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: there saying, what about the hijacking? What did you see?
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: They were like, what hijacking? That's how good these flight
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: attendants were.
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: And by the way, he was in Honduran illegal. But
• 24:11
  Speaker 5: you look at his mugshot, he looks like a jihadist.
• 24:14
  Speaker 5: He's got the beard and everything, the crazed eyes. He
• 24:17
  Speaker 5: snuck in through Texas 2011.
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: We sent him back.
• 24:21
  Speaker 5: He snuck in then through New Mexico 2014. We sent
• 24:25
  Speaker 5: him back. He snuck in in an area you know well, Larry,
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: I know well. San Ysidro would separate San Diego from
• 24:32
  Speaker 5: San TJ Tijuana, 2019, we sent him back.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: He's living in the Bronx, as you said. He's got
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: a long rap sheet.
• 24:40
  Speaker 5: And yet he was able to get on this flight
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: to New Orleans from Newark and cause all kinds of havoc.
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: You don't remember there was a program. I got to
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: do a deep dive.
• 24:49
  Speaker 5: The air marshals, you know, after the hijackings to Cuba,
• 24:54
  Speaker 5: JFK put him into effect. I ran into one air
• 24:57
  Speaker 5: marshal one time. I wonder if they've replenished the many
• 25:01
  Speaker 5: who've retired.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: We never hear about them anymore. That's a great question.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: Hey, listen, when we come back, not only are we
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: going to talk about the election results still not in
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: from Mississippi and Alaska, but we have just two more
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: talkbacks left from veterans.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: You want to play them, too? Oh, absolutely.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, let's get to them. That's when we come right back. Well,
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: you've been great today with your talk back. So many
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: of them about veterans, both that you knew and maybe
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: some of the people that were veterans. We really appreciate it.
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: So we have one last one. Now, we're saving one
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: other one because it's going to be the talk back
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: of the morning. But we want to make sure on
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: this Veterans Day, we get to everyone that wants to
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: talk about veterans.
• 25:48
  Speaker 13: Happy Veterans Day, everyone. When I was looking for a
• 25:51
  Speaker 13: house in Pennsylvania, I met up with someone that was
• 25:56
  Speaker 13: a vet. We got to talking. Now, every year on
• 26:00
  Speaker 13: Veterans Day, I call him up just to say hi.
• 26:03
  Speaker 13: He's a total stranger, but he's a vet, and I
• 26:06
  Speaker 13: call to thank him.
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: That's wonderful.
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: By the way, today, anybody that's a veteran that you know,
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: you should be thanking.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 26:15
  Speaker 5: So remember, the difference Veterans Day, honor all those who've
• 26:19
  Speaker 5: served peacetime, wartime, Memorial Day, never say happy Memorial Day.
• 26:23
  Speaker 5: That's to commemorate those who died in battle to preserve
• 26:28
  Speaker 5: all freedom. But definitely do as Larry had just encouraged
• 26:31
  Speaker 5: you to do, even if you can't go to a
• 26:33
  Speaker 5: commemoration or the parade here in New York City that
• 26:36
  Speaker 5: starts at 1230 up Fifth Avenue.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it should be all the time, not just Veterans Day.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: We should be thanking people all of the time. Well,
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: Alaska and Mississippi still doesn't have their votes counted.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: Up in Alaska, it's amazing.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: Every time they're interviewed, they say the same thing that
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: gentleman said the other day. This is just the way
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: we do it up here.
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: They're not going to be rushed. Slow and easy, he said.
• 27:06
  Speaker 5: And it went from, what, 75% of the total vote
• 27:09
  Speaker 5: counted down to 74%. We still haven't figured out how
• 27:13
  Speaker 5: they do their mathematical tabulations.
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: It's now up to 84%. Oh, 84%. Wow. Major jump.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: Let me give you what we have right now. Mary Peltola. Boy,
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer does not want her to win now because
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: she's going to be against him as Speaker of the House.
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: 118,926.
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: Dan Sullivan, the real Dan Sullivan, 114,676. So listen to that.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: She's pulling away. Because it was within 1,000 votes, it
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: was a few hundred votes. Now it's about 3,000 votes,
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: a little bit under 3,000 votes. And the fake Dan Sullivan,
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: his total's going up, too, to 4,027. So if Peltola
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: needs those votes.
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: They're probably going to become because of the fraud that
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: was committed up there from Daniel J.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: Sullivan.
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: The best thing that can happen to Mary Peltola is
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: that she wins this on her own. Because if she doesn't, Well,
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: then it's going to be in the courts for a
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: long time.
• 28:14
  Speaker 5: That's for sure. And by the way, you are right.
• 28:16
  Speaker 5: Chuck Schumer will be dancing the horror. And he's going
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: to be upset if the African-American candidate for the Democratic Party,
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: former DA Colm, wins in Mississippi.
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: They've now nearly tallied.
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: Up 3,000 of the votes that are affidavits and absentee.
• 28:36
  Speaker 5: They've still got a ways to go. But if this
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: gentleman wins... He's got a grudge against Schumer. A month ago,
• 28:43
  Speaker 5: when nobody gave him a chance at all to beat
• 28:46
  Speaker 5: the sitting Republican senator in Mississippi, he had a delegation
• 28:51
  Speaker 5: of esteemed African-Americans from Mississippi went and met personally with
• 28:55
  Speaker 5: Chuck Schumer in D.C. He said, look, Chuck, look, our
• 28:58
  Speaker 5: internal polls. Look, we got a real chance to win this.
• 29:02
  Speaker 5: And Chuck looked at them and said, no, you don't.
• 29:04
  Speaker 5: I'm not giving you anything.
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry. I'm not giving you anything.
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: So if he gets elected, not only you have Patola
• 29:10
  Speaker 5: who will vote against Chuck Schumer being the majority leader
• 29:13
  Speaker 5: of the Senate, but Collum, who would definitely vote no
• 29:17
  Speaker 5: because of how he got dissed and dismissed.
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: That would mean all eight of the new senators for
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: the Democratic Party would vote against him. You add Sanders
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: to that, Senator Sanders. There's enough. that he would not win.
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: Well, it's going to be close. We'll see what kind
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: of subterfuge that Chuck Schumer and his files do against
• 29:41
  Speaker 5: those who may be vacillating. Anyway, today was an outstanding
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: tribute to all of our veterans. We heard so many
• 29:49
  Speaker 5: heartfelt messages from our listeners. This talk back in particular
• 29:55
  Speaker 5: sums up why taking a moment to thank a veteran
• 29:59
  Speaker 5: matters so much.
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: On this Veterans Day, I think about the two billion
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: people on this planet who live in freedom. in large
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: measure because of the efforts of the U.S. military down
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: through the years. That's an extraordinarily noble achievement. And yet
• 30:15
  Speaker 4: when you ask a service member about what they do,
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: their answer is self-effacing. I was just doing my job.
• 30:23
  Speaker 9: Amazing.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what else they say, too, which I love?
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: It's my favorite quote from veterans, if not me, who?
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: Because if I don't go, who's going to take my place?
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: Who's going to do the job?
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: Correct.
• 30:35
  Speaker 5: Oh, man, that was an outstanding way to pull it all,
• 30:39
  Speaker 5: put it all into effect. So that's our Talk Back
• 30:41

• 30:43
