• 0:21
  Speaker 3: especially since when you know it's going to go higher.
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: So let's just you know, first of all, close our
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: eyes and say prayer for the people of Venezuela. If

  Speaker 3: you are looking at some of the WABC websites and
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: some of the WABC social media, you'll see some incredible videos,
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: including one of a professional baseball game in Venezuela where
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: the players know as soon as the earthquakes starts to
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: rush out of the dugout and get to the relative
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: safety of the open field.
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: That's a compelling video. But if you look at the
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: other video.

  Speaker 5: Bombed, well buildings, yeah, yeah, wow.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: So there's they're saying thousands missing, and I just want
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: to preemptively do what.
• 1:05
  Speaker 5: Happened in the afternoon, so if people were in office buildings,
• 1:09
  Speaker 5: they were there.
• 1:10
  Speaker 6: Well, Jake, first of all, our prayers are are you know,

  Speaker 6: our hearts and our prayers are with the Venezuelan people

  Speaker 6: we have earth, wind and fire in the studio. I mean,
• 1:24
  Speaker 6: you know, Jake is earth, John is wind, and I
• 1:29
  Speaker 6: am fired because I'm fired up this morning.
• 1:32
  Speaker 7: You know, I'm this.
• 1:32
  Speaker 6: I'm disappointed that that that SID takes such short vacations.
• 1:38
  Speaker 6: I'm getting I'm getting used to this takeover. Well, I
• 1:41
  Speaker 6: don't know what I'm gonna do. Monday morning a.
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: Week said I'm gonna do six days of broadcasting as
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: an eternity. So actually it's not that certification. But no,
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: this is a but to give you update, you know,
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: other updates. President Trump pledging whatever the United States can
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: do to help the people of Venezuela. And I want
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: to preemptively stop a narrative that's already starting in the
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: mainstream media.
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: Although I predicted this even before they started it.
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: You're gonna hear people in the mainstream media saying, well,
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: now that we've kind of effectively taken over Venezuela with
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: the extradition of Maduro. This is more of an America
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: US problem. You know, just that's just complete bunk. Read
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: a book for once. This country, even our enemies, we
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: have helped our our other countries in the world when
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: they've had natural disasters, going all the way back to
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: the nineteenth century, but the early twentieth century, Herbert Hoover
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: went over to communist Soviet Union to help them during
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: a famine, and we help.
• 2:29
  Speaker 7: Yeah, this is the norm. This we get involved.
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: Remember, this is the norm.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: The tsunami twenty one years ago, and you know, I
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: mean this is folks. The United States helps, whether we're
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: involved in the country.
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: Very much or not. Stop with all this nonsins. We
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: are the most charitable.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: Yesterday we were talking about the Europeans don't give charity
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: because they don't they don't. This is the most charitable
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: country in the history of world. Sometimes, to our detriment,
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: a lot of our charity money we don't know where
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: it goes, right, But in this case, stop with all that.
• 2:56
  Speaker 7: Well, we know where the choverty money goes.
• 2:58
  Speaker 6: It goes into the pocket of the presidents and the
• 3:02
  Speaker 6: politicians in those Third world countries.
• 3:04
  Speaker 7: That, you know, take advantage of this situation.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: So allow me to make a positive spin on the
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: way that the charity. Not not a positive spin on
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: the earthquake, don't get me wrong, but a positive spin
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: on the way the charity is going to go now
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: that the United States has more control over Venezuela, at
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: least in some ways, hopefully more the charity money will
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: go to the right place.
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: The American people are the most giving people in the world.
• 3:26
  Speaker 6: Yeah, we just have to make sure that the money
• 3:28
  Speaker 6: goes to the right cause. You know, we need to
• 3:31
  Speaker 6: have inspectors there.
• 3:32
  Speaker 7: Like we send inspectors for elections, send inspectors for the money.
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: There is no perfection. The first thing you do is
• 3:41
  Speaker 5: make sure the help is there, correct now.
• 3:43
  Speaker 7: Later on put people in jail later, that's.
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: The problem people. Some people have to go to jail.
• 3:51
  Speaker 7: Yeah they do. Yeah, well that's what I'm saying.
• 3:53
  Speaker 6: It's like you said, John, first help and then find
• 3:56
  Speaker 6: people accountable.
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: Yes, and but first help. Remember many and you know,
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: I tell old war stories many many years ago. When
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: I was working for President Glinton, I was having dinner
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: with him on a Sunday night, and I didn't even
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: know about it. That e Istanbul constanting up and Istanbul
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: had a big earthquake and the European community gave them
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: or offered them two hundred and fifty digging euros and
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: under the European rules, Greece vetled it. Jeez. So I'm
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: having dinner with him on a Sunday night and I
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: said to him, by the way, I'm going to Greece tomorrow.
• 4:45
  Speaker 5: He says, oh, you're going to Greece tomorrow. I need
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: you to do me a favor. I need you to
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: meet with the the President and the Prime Minister of
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: Greece and ask him, from a personal favor to me
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: to release that two hundred and fifty million euros.
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: Any luck it was released, good, fantastic.
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: Well, and that helped bring Turkey and Greece closer together
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: because a year later, I think Greece had a problem
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: with something and Turkey helped them. If we can put
• 5:19
  Speaker 5: people together. You know, I'm not sure Gone was the
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: prime minister.
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: No, he was, I'm saying before ed one. Yeah, so
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: it wouldn't have happened under him.
• 5:27
  Speaker 6: Jacob depends on who's delivering the message. You know, John
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: has credibility, and when he delivers a message from the
• 5:33
  Speaker 6: President of the United States. You know it's taken very serious.
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: So here's what you're going to see in places in
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: Venezuela and again, uh, I want to I want to
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: remind people of the positive reactions that you're going to
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: see to this. People who are really going to be
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: going out to help, and countries that have no connection
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: to Venezuela very much, we'll do We'll still be there.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: You're going to see these pop up mobile hospitals that
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: a couple of countries, especially Israel is very famous. I
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: remember they had that color as of that building in Miami.
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: The Israelis came immediately with a pop up hospital. They
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: do this in Ukraine as well. By the way, in
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: the Israeli Defense Forces, being a part of the mobile
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: hospital unit is the most desired and requested duty in
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: the army because everyone wants to do that, and we'll
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: do it here in the United States will do it
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: as well. I'm not trying to single lot in one
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: country over the other, but please make sure that you
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: pay attention to the positives that are going to come
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: out of the story as well as you know the
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: immediate human disaster here. They're going to be Americans, people
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: from even some people from Europe. They are going to
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: be people from other Latin American Columbias, people neighbor you know,
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: and they will help. Yeah, they will help, absolutely, And
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: it's important to remember that. And I'm sure they'll be
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: numbers to call eventually to donate money and things like that.
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: And when we know that and we can check them
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: out for credibility, we'll pass it on.
• 6:46
  Speaker 6: I'm hoping that the Democratic Socialist Party does something for Venezuela.
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: What they're gonna do, you're gonna hear.
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: I guarantee you you will hear some of these far
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: left Democrats who will blame Trump for the maybe not
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: for the earthquake of the U'll try that.
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: Believe me, there's nothing they won't play. But I might say,
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: but you're gonna hear.
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: You're gonna hear somebody from the Democrat Party today. I
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: promise you go on CNN or MSNBC and say, you see,
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: this is why Trump shouldn't have got rid of Dua.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: Maduro would have helped these people much faster, which is
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: of course nonsense, of course nonsense. We will help them
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: faster than anybody, whether Maduro is in there or not.
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: Please don't politicize this. I know a lot of you
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: listening are gonna hear people politicizing it. Don't don't give
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: this any oxygen. Think about helping think about it.
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: Well, a lot of things going on today. I texted
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: Quick McCarthy uh to talk about what's going on with
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: the Uh. He's the New York Post, He's the Room nine.
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: Is it the Room nine?
• 7:40
  Speaker 8: Yeah?
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: I think so, that's what it's called.
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: City Hall reporter, uh, and talk about the races going
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: on and what happened. I mean, we watch the you know,
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: the three big races.
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 7:54
  Speaker 6: A lot to learn about this, John, A lot we
• 7:57
  Speaker 6: need to really understand what happened. And I think that
• 8:01
  Speaker 6: New Yorkers want a change. They want to change. They
• 8:05
  Speaker 6: don't like the Democratic Party anymore. They like the Republican Party.
• 8:09
  Speaker 6: But there are no Republican candidates with support to win
• 8:14
  Speaker 6: or to compete.
• 8:16
  Speaker 9: You know.
• 8:16
  Speaker 7: I was thinking.
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: Publican candidate running in New York City on the on
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: the East side west side for that race that John
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: Kennedy's grandson was running for. Yeah, and since we had
• 8:30
  Speaker 5: a Democrat on I think, yeah, yeah, we should.
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: We should.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: There's a story I believe in the in the New
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: York Post this morning introducing the Republicans who are challenging them,
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: And while I agree with Fernando his basis that that
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: the GOP hasn't invested enough in these candidates, now's the time.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm hearing from people from friends and relatives
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: who live in these districts in Manhattan where these socialists
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: have won the primaries, telling me, oh, I'm going to
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: move to Israel. I'm going to move to Florida. Now
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: I'm getting ride of everything. I got news for you.
• 8:57
  Speaker 7: They didn't come out and vote.
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, first of all, he didn't come out and vote.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: And now you're telling me you, but you won't try
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: to raise a little money that you're going to sell
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: your home and run out at fires Head's not going anywhere.
• 9:07
  Speaker 7: They're not going anywhere.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: How about you get behind some of these Republican candidates
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: you still have a chance, and let me say something about, oh,
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: they're not going to win, Fernando, It's all about laying
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: the foundation. You know about this too, John. Let's say
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: these Republican candidates don't get over the finish line and
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: defeat these crazy socialists who won in these three races.
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: If you start setting the foundation now, then maybe two
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: years from now they will win. Remember Giuliani in nineteen
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: eighty nine, he lost to Dinkins. It was very close,
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: and then four years later he won. They gave him
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: no chance at all, Republican winning against the Democrat, and
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: it was a close race in eighty nine, and then
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: he got over the hump in ninety three. You have
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: to sometimes lay a foundation and it's only a two
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: year wait, it's not a four year weight.
• 9:49
  Speaker 7: And Bloomberg won three terms. He's a Republican right.
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: Well, he said after one term he switched over as
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: an independent, but yes, originally a Republican.
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: You know, what I believe the Republican Party needs to
• 10:00
  Speaker 6: do is create a different division of the Republican Republican
• 10:06
  Speaker 6: right wing party and create the Republican Socialist partylican urban Republican.
• 10:13
  Speaker 6: I ran as an urban Republican. It didn't get much
• 10:16
  Speaker 6: of a swag. I don't think the media really, you know,
• 10:18
  Speaker 6: caught on to it. But if we have the Republican
• 10:21
  Speaker 6: Socialist Party, and what we do is give opportunity to
• 10:26
  Speaker 6: those that want to invest in America, to those that
• 10:29
  Speaker 6: want to take risks in America and tell them if
• 10:33
  Speaker 6: you open a small business and you hire people, we
• 10:36
  Speaker 6: are going to give you a special kind of treatment.
• 10:39
  Speaker 6: We're going to make sure that you succeed because you're
• 10:42
  Speaker 6: creating jobs, you're creating wealth, you're you're actually on the
• 10:46
  Speaker 6: road to the American dream. Right, that's what the Republican
• 10:50
  Speaker 6: Socialist Party should be. And I mentioned yesterday we need
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: to start shifting a little bit left and not further
• 10:57
  Speaker 6: right because we see that New York's afraid of that.
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: Well, I don't think we.
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: I mean, like all the polls show that Republican voters
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: who voted Republican twenty five years ago haven't changed their
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: opinions about anything.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: It's the Democrats who have moved really crazy part.
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: Of the left.
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: But Fernando, the phrase that you use, that's the most important.
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: I hope everyone heard. What Fernando Matteo said was small business.
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: The Republicans ticket towards more common sense America and saving
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: us from these crazy Democrats is to really focus more
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: on small businesses. They have become because the small businesses
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: are the ticket to more Latino votes. Small businesses are
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: the ticket to more Asian American votes. I mean, people
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: talk about Jewish voting voting for Democrats and how suicidal
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: that is. What about Asian Americans who vote still mostly Democrats.
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: That's suicidal in my opinion. These people are being attacked
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: by the Democrats. What about Indian Americans, you know South
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: for Democrats who hate them and are keep trying to
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: keep them out of the universities and things like that.
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: But small business is the way to go because I
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: just mentioned communities like the Latino, the South, Asian canmunities,
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: the Asian regular as communities, they are heavily involved in
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: small business. And the Republicans can make it clear to
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: these folks that your small store, whether it's a bodega,
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: whether it's a whether an uber driver, is more favorable
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: to you, then there's a chance there.
• 12:15
  Speaker 7: Absolutely.
• 12:15
  Speaker 6: Listen, yesterday we had the administrator of the SBA here,
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: okay exactly, and Kelly was mentioning that the job growth
• 12:25
  Speaker 6: in this country. You you mentioned it yesterday, the job
• 12:28
  Speaker 6: growth in this country is with small businesses.
• 12:31
  Speaker 7: Only, exactly. But in New York you walk around and
• 12:34
  Speaker 7: you see all these empty stores.
• 12:37
  Speaker 6: You know why are they empty? They're empty because the
• 12:40
  Speaker 6: rents are high.
• 12:41
  Speaker 5: Congestion price.
• 12:43
  Speaker 6: Just listen, they're empty all over the city, even where
• 12:45
  Speaker 6: there is no congestin price in.
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: New York City, like we have to compete with the Internet,
• 12:51
  Speaker 5: we have to compete with the people that deliver groceries,
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: for instance, for gristities and and and sometimes because the
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: congestion price, the vendors, the vendors that live in New
• 13:04
  Speaker 5: Jersey or have their factories in New Jersey or warehouses
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: or Brooklyn, Queens National County, and for them to come
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: to Manhattan and face tickets and face congestion pricing and towing.
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: Wait a second, they don't want to.
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: Come, right, and they don't want to play.
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: And if they, if you twist, they're on to come,
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: They're gonna charge you fifteen percent more to make up
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: for the short form.
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: John.
• 13:34
  Speaker 6: This week alone, I've spent about one hundred dollars in
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: congestion pricing to get to this show. You know, once
• 13:41
  Speaker 6: you cross six, I was thinking about parking on sixty
• 13:45
  Speaker 6: fifth and walking down fifteen blocks right to say, the
• 13:49
  Speaker 6: congested price Sunday.
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: This is like we are literally paying people not to work.
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: We're paying them not to work, and then we're surprised
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: something they're not working.
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: There is something wrong in a politicians in Albany have
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: to wake up and realize that, and we'll get somebody
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: to talk about it. And by the way, on the
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: five o'clock show yesterday we had Melissa de Rosa and
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: she was good. I mean, you were gonna play that
• 14:14
  Speaker 5: tape but the control room later on. Why don't we
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: play it right now?
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: Melissa? Melissa de Rosa, what's her title?
• 14:22
  Speaker 5: Melissa? She's now a contributing editor on CNN and Fox
• 14:29
  Speaker 5: Fox and she was first assistant to Secretary to the government.
• 14:36
  Speaker 7: That's right, Ay, ready, I want to ask something before
• 14:42
  Speaker 7: before Yeah, do you think the city is losing more
• 14:45
  Speaker 7: money with congestive pricing based on the amount of empty
• 14:50
  Speaker 7: stores and the lack of business in New York City?
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: I have stores in Manhattan. We're suffering too.
• 14:55
  Speaker 7: You're suffering.
• 14:55
  Speaker 6: Okay, So there's less taxes, let's income coming into the
• 15:00
  Speaker 6: the city.
• 15:00
  Speaker 5: And this stay can tell you something. They're making money
• 15:03
  Speaker 5: on congestion price, but they're not smart enough to realize it.
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: Well, listen, the.
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: Problem is Albany is not smart enough to realize what
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: the heck is going on.
• 15:17
  Speaker 7: Well, they're not economists. Let's listen.
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: To Melissa.
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: You have Melissa Rosa. Let's let's listen to Melissa.
• 15:22
  Speaker 10: And joining us now here on Katz and Cosby is
• 15:26
  Speaker 10: former senior aide to then Governor Cuomo, great Democratic strategist,
• 15:30
  Speaker 10: Melissa de Rosa.
• 15:32
  Speaker 11: Melissa, it is a socialist surge. What does this mean?
• 15:37
  Speaker 12: Well, great to talk to you, Rita. No, it's it's
• 15:39
  Speaker 12: it's an epic disaster. Last night was a total blood bath.
• 15:43
  Speaker 12: And everyone is really focused on these congressional seats, these
• 15:46
  Speaker 12: three congressional seats, but people are not talking as much
• 15:49
  Speaker 12: about the fact that there was a whole slate of
• 15:52
  Speaker 12: DSA candidates, socialist candidates who ran for the State Assembly
• 15:56
  Speaker 12: and the state Senate against incumbents and in open seats,
• 15:59
  Speaker 12: and they had a perfect sweep there as well, which
• 16:02
  Speaker 12: means it's going to be you know, harder for Carl
• 16:05
  Speaker 12: Heasty and Andrew Stewart cousins in the legislature to push back,
• 16:09
  Speaker 12: and it's going to be nearly impossible for Kathy Hopel
• 16:11
  Speaker 12: to hold the line on anything. And so you know,
• 16:14
  Speaker 12: I'm looking at the congressional racism, what this means for
• 16:17
  Speaker 12: the party, and what this means for twenty twenty eight
• 16:19
  Speaker 12: but I'm also thinking here at home in New York State.
• 16:23
  Speaker 12: I think that they're going to be pushing hard to
• 16:25
  Speaker 12: raise taxes next year. I think they're going to be
• 16:27
  Speaker 12: pushing hard to continue to roll back things on public safety.
• 16:31
  Speaker 12: And I think it's cannot be overstated.
• 16:34
  Speaker 5: What amessis is wow, And I mean, so many things
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: are going on. Are you familiar at all? What's going
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: on besides the politics? What's going on with that indictment
• 16:47
  Speaker 5: or arrest with Frank Corron?
• 16:50
  Speaker 12: Yes, yes, I saw it. I'm sure as everyone else
• 16:53
  Speaker 12: that I have no personal knowledge beyond what I read.
• 16:55
  Speaker 10: But Melissa explained to everybody who he was obviously right
• 16:58
  Speaker 10: hand to, you know, then the than the mayor.
• 17:01
  Speaker 12: Yep, he was chief of staff to Mayor Adams, and
• 17:04
  Speaker 12: he had ran his campaign, was the chairman to his
• 17:07
  Speaker 12: campaign in twenty twenty one, the successful race, and then
• 17:10
  Speaker 12: again when he was half running half not running in
• 17:13
  Speaker 12: twenty twenty five. And you know, full disclosure, Frank has
• 17:16
  Speaker 12: been a friend of mine over the years. I've known
• 17:18
  Speaker 12: him a long time, as I think we all have.
• 17:20
  Speaker 12: So you know, I feel terribly for his family. I
• 17:23
  Speaker 12: can't imagine how difficult this all is, and I don't,
• 17:26
  Speaker 12: you know, I have no idea the truth and not
• 17:28
  Speaker 12: truth that you know, everyone has their day in court.
• 17:30
  Speaker 12: But basically, the upshot is that he was involved in
• 17:34
  Speaker 12: steering a migrant contract to a hotel owner in an
• 17:39
  Speaker 12: area of the city that didn't necessarily need the beds,
• 17:42
  Speaker 12: and the hotel didn't necessarily meet the requirements for the
• 17:45
  Speaker 12: migrant shelters, and there was a kickback of I think
• 17:49
  Speaker 12: it was one hundred and twenty thousand dollars that was
• 17:51
  Speaker 12: paid through his brother. His brother was also arrested, and
• 17:55
  Speaker 12: then the brother you know, was kicking the money back
• 17:57
  Speaker 12: to Frank. Those are the allegations and so some some
• 18:00
  Speaker 12: pretty serious stuff. There were three arrests made there, the
• 18:04
  Speaker 12: owner of the hotel and then also Frank, and Frank
• 18:09
  Speaker 12: I'm not familiar with him, but he was this person
• 18:12
  Speaker 12: who was involved in this selleged scheme. And then on
• 18:15
  Speaker 12: top of it, I don't know if you guys saw,
• 18:16
  Speaker 12: but there was also you know, these raids today taking place.
• 18:20
  Speaker 12: He's FBI raids on a number of former NYPD officers
• 18:24
  Speaker 12: who are allegedly involved involved in a corruption scandal, which
• 18:28
  Speaker 12: we don't you know, the details on that are murky
• 18:29
  Speaker 12: because all we know is homes were raided. But it was,
• 18:32
  Speaker 12: you know, this morning, everyone the only thing anyone was
• 18:35
  Speaker 12: talking about was the elections last night, and by eleven
• 18:37
  Speaker 12: o'clock all anyone was talking about was FBI raids of
• 18:40
  Speaker 12: NYPD officers, and you know this indictment of the former
• 18:43
  Speaker 12: top Adam's aid, Wow, it's been a crazy day here
• 18:46
  Speaker 12: in New York.
• 18:47
  Speaker 11: It has.
• 18:48
  Speaker 10: And Melissa, I want to get back to some of
• 18:50
  Speaker 10: the socialist stuff because I find it really terrifying, and
• 18:53
  Speaker 10: like you said, it's a bloodbath. Also, you look at
• 18:55
  Speaker 10: some of the other candidates. There's the Pennsylvania guy, there's
• 18:58
  Speaker 10: the New Jersey guy, there are some in North Carolina.
• 19:02
  Speaker 10: One of the things also that I found really chilling
• 19:05
  Speaker 10: too is it's sort.
• 19:07
  Speaker 11: Of our way or the highway.
• 19:09
  Speaker 10: And in fact, Mayor Maundani said today, you know, it
• 19:12
  Speaker 10: looks like everybody's looking for a fight.
• 19:14
  Speaker 11: Bring it on, basically.
• 19:16
  Speaker 10: And then they were chanting at one of the victory
• 19:18
  Speaker 10: rallies for one of these far left cannas last night, DSA, DSA,
• 19:23
  Speaker 10: and then chanting when they saw a picture of Hakim Jefferies,
• 19:26
  Speaker 10: the House Minority Leader, Democrat.
• 19:28
  Speaker 11: Your next what does all that mean.
• 19:32
  Speaker 12: No, Look, they're out for blood, make no mistake. And
• 19:35
  Speaker 12: the fact that you had Bernie Sanders and the DSA,
• 19:39
  Speaker 12: which is Bernie's wing of the party, which again i'll
• 19:41
  Speaker 12: remind you your listeners, Bernie isn't even a registered Democrat,
• 19:44
  Speaker 12: so that to me is always absurd that he's sort
• 19:47
  Speaker 12: of at the forefront of this movement within the Democrat
• 19:49
  Speaker 12: Party is not even registered Democrat. That they came in
• 19:52
  Speaker 12: and they endorsed against incumbent Democrats in the sitting head
• 19:57
  Speaker 12: of the congressional delegation AND's home district, like in his backyard,
• 20:02
  Speaker 12: in his home borough. Excuse me. And also Adriana, that's
• 20:05
  Speaker 12: my head up in the Bronx that they came in
• 20:07
  Speaker 12: and they endorsed against them, and they went toe to
• 20:09
  Speaker 12: toe with them. And in this last election, it had
• 20:12
  Speaker 12: been reported that Mamdami had made a deal with Jeffries
• 20:16
  Speaker 12: not to endorse against him if Jeffries endorsed him in
• 20:19
  Speaker 12: the general election, which he did, and then the sky
• 20:22
  Speaker 12: Choc was almost going to run against Takim Jeffries and
• 20:26
  Speaker 12: Mamdami allegedly played a role in getting him to back off.
• 20:29
  Speaker 12: But what we heard last night and what we've been
• 20:31
  Speaker 12: hearing all day today is next time around, all bets
• 20:34
  Speaker 12: are off. And so the DSA is planning to come
• 20:37
  Speaker 12: for Hakim. Jeffries' district is his seat. And you know,
• 20:41
  Speaker 12: I love Hakeen personally. I have a lot of respect
• 20:43
  Speaker 12: for him as a leader, but just practically speaking, you
• 20:46
  Speaker 12: don't look very strong when you lose your incumbent House
• 20:51
  Speaker 12: Democrats in your city, in your state and you're the
• 20:54
  Speaker 12: leader of the conference. So I don't know what this
• 20:56
  Speaker 12: is going to mean for him in terms of a
• 20:58
  Speaker 12: bigger picture if they're DSA candidates or other people within
• 21:02
  Speaker 12: his conference try to take him out from his leadership post.
• 21:04
  Speaker 12: And the same thing goes for you know Schumer who
• 21:07
  Speaker 12: you know, the writing is sort of on the wall there.
• 21:09
  Speaker 12: They're all out to get him. But it was It
• 21:11
  Speaker 12: was a terrible night for both Chuck and for Jakim.
• 21:13
  Speaker 11: New York.
• 21:14
  Speaker 13: Yeah, that's horrible.
• 21:16
  Speaker 5: Anything else you want to tell the uh, you know,
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: the million people listening to us, No, but I.
• 21:21
  Speaker 12: Will say that, look, these these elections last night. Elections
• 21:25
  Speaker 12: are decided by people who show up, and the turnout
• 21:27
  Speaker 12: was abysmal and for people who care about the city
• 21:30
  Speaker 12: and care about the future of the city, in the state,
• 21:33
  Speaker 12: in this country. You know, everybody has to vote. We
• 21:35
  Speaker 12: can't just be mad about these things. We actually have
• 21:37
  Speaker 12: to go out and engage and get our neighbors to
• 21:39
  Speaker 12: engage and and maybe we can turn the tide. But
• 21:42
  Speaker 12: it was not a good thing for sanity. It was
• 21:45
  Speaker 12: not a good thing for you know, the Jewish population
• 21:47
  Speaker 12: which feels under fire, and that these campaigns are being
• 21:50
  Speaker 12: run on anti semitism and public safety and you know,
• 21:54
  Speaker 12: in terms of our own taxes and affordability here at home.
• 21:57
  Speaker 12: So listen, no good news out of today.
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: Thank you, Melissa de Rosa. Keep working at it and
• 22:03
  Speaker 5: let's keep let's keep the truth coming out to the
• 22:06
  Speaker 5: American people.
• 22:07
  Speaker 13: And thank you very much.
• 22:08
  Speaker 5: For what you do.
• 22:08
  Speaker 11: Thank you, Melissa.
• 22:09
  Speaker 12: Guys, Okay, you talk soon.
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: That was Melissa de Rosa speaking on Kats and Cosby
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: last night. And by the way, not a incidental connection.
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: When people see this kind of corruption from the quote
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: unquote establishment democrats, it opens the door for some of
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: these socials as well. We're going to take a break
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: and we come back in the next half hour.
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: Sid and Friends in the morning on the Red Apple
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: Podcast Network.
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: This Earth, Wind and Fire trio, and we all agree,
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: we all like strategy. I'm here with two very successful businessmen.
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: I'm I'm the I'm the runt of the litter, two
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: successful businesmens who understand the strategy.
• 22:44
  Speaker 5: You told me you bought a stock for one hundred bucks. Yeah, yeah,
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: let's give a benefit for him. Okay, all right, stop prying.
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: No, yeah, yeah, we talked about that, the Jerry Seinfeld joke.
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: We'll repeat that later about my people and complaining.
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: But you know, this good strategy is something I think
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: businessmen and business women are much better at than politicians.
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: And I think President Trump initiated a good strategy yesterday.
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: You know, we reported, yes, we talked about it on
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: the show, that Congress very strong bipartisan vote, both sides
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: agreeing to this housing bill, which is going to get
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: out of the way of the bottleneck and supply. It's
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: going to help more houses and apartments being built affordable. Well,
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: more more, always more, always equals affordable because supply and demand.
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: More supply is always going to make, you know, basic
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: economics exactly right for Nanda. So but President Trump goes
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: to Capitol Hill yesterday and says, hey, I'm not going
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: to sign this bill that you all want until you
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: pass the Same of America Act. And I think that
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: that's a good strategy, because John, if you don't have
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: a secure vote, you have nothing.
• 23:46
  Speaker 5: You need a vote, You need a secure vote. And
• 23:49
  Speaker 5: the other thing we have a problem in the New
• 23:51
  Speaker 5: York City is not enough people voting. I don't know
• 23:56
  Speaker 5: what it is. I mean, it's the middle of summer,
• 23:59
  Speaker 5: a lot of people, a way, a lot of people.
• 24:03
  Speaker 5: But if you have seven hundred and seventy five thousand
• 24:07
  Speaker 5: in the congressional district and only thirty five thousand people vote,
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: and I'm sure two to three hundred thousand were eligible.
• 24:15
  Speaker 7: Right, John. The people who came out to vote were
• 24:19
  Speaker 7: a class of people. They were young, they were they
• 24:23
  Speaker 7: were white, and they were clue.
• 24:24
  Speaker 5: They were influenced by the Democratic Socialists. You go out
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: and vote.
• 24:29
  Speaker 7: They should, you know, they should take a trip out
• 24:31
  Speaker 7: to Venezuela and see Nick.
• 24:34
  Speaker 6: And Nicaragua, you know, and see what the superb. You know,
• 24:38
  Speaker 6: over here they're free socialists. Right, that's the difference over there.
• 24:42
  Speaker 6: They're not free.
• 24:44
  Speaker 7: Over here, but here they are free over here.
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: Socialism as a hobby, and you can go to I think.
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: The American people, the common sense Democrats, the common sense
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: independents have to wake up and say we're in deep crap.
• 24:58
  Speaker 7: But they're not waking up, John, that's the problem. They're
• 25:01
  Speaker 7: not waking up.
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: Well, you're not wrong, though, Fernando.
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: I think that they're they're very much.
• 25:06
  Speaker 7: And they're minorities.
• 25:08
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and that's what that's what really upsets me. Look
• 25:11
  Speaker 6: at the districts that these people won. They are all immigrant,
• 25:16
  Speaker 6: minority districts. People that are struggling.
• 25:20
  Speaker 7: Do you think that a socialist is gonna help you
• 25:22
  Speaker 7: climb out of the hole. Yeah, they're gonna get you.
• 25:25
  Speaker 13: They're gonna a lot of them that voted.
• 25:27
  Speaker 5: I understand the people that are here less than five years.
• 25:30
  Speaker 7: Yes, they're they're they're white, they're young, and they're clueless.
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and they're and they're imposing their young friends. They're
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: they're imposing their university educated Shangri law utopian nonsense on
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: working people who are working in Bodega's driving cabs. You know,
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: you talked about congestion pricing. To beat the congestion pricing problems.
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: When I when I come in here, sometimes sometimes I'm
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: driving in here.
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: Between two and three am.
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: That's when you have to start setting up your fruit
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: stand on this so you can beat the congestion pricing.
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: Now, if you're an owner operator.
• 26:03
  Speaker 7: I mean I have to get up at one in
• 26:04
  Speaker 7: the morning to get here and not pay.
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: That's right.
• 26:07
  Speaker 7: Well I'm going to sleep in the story, that's right.
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: Not only that, but not only that, but like you know,
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: if you're so, let's say you have one of these
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: fruit stands or something like that. Okay, maybe you're the owner,
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: you're willing to do that, but good luck find hiring
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: someone from the Bronx or Queens and tell hey, you
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: got to come in here at two am to beat
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: the congestion pricing. To help do that up, you gotta
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: get hired in anyone like that. I take the you know,
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: very often take the Long Island Railroad to work. For
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: years I had. I took the five nineteen train in
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: for to right when I was working, you know, at
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: Fox and the whole train was construction workers and me.
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: But one day I started seeing a guy come on regularly.
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: He was in the kind of cover us. He was
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: either a dishwasher or a short order cook, I could tell.
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: And he was from way out on Long Island where
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: they charge you more to take the train, And I'm
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: thinking this guy must be a hero because he's probably
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: living in a building where there's three people on food
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: stamps who are sleeping in because for the extra five
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: dollars they would make doing his job.
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: Why bother, Why get on the train so.
• 27:00
  Speaker 6: You're not getting on the train with the eighty year
• 27:02
  Speaker 6: old women that are chasing you and following them all.
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: Over the place. They don't go on the trade that's
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: the one place they won't go. But you know, you
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: go on that train. But by the way, you would
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: go on the train with the construction workers and the
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: smell of pot on the train.
• 27:15
  Speaker 5: Can you immove power?
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: Can you imagine them?
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: When they would leave in the morning, I would say,
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: can you tell me what building or work on? Some
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: I know never to go above the second floor.
• 27:22
  Speaker 7: Yeah, listen, listen. It's ridiculous.
• 27:24
  Speaker 6: Sometimes you know, you're walking around with your grandkids or
• 27:27
  Speaker 6: your kids and you have these people smoking weed and
• 27:30
  Speaker 6: it's like it doesn't matter anymore. We've lost our culture,
• 27:35
  Speaker 6: we've lost our our our city, you know, to these drugs.
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: And we're not terrible. You know, I'm not here to
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: arrest someone who's smoking to joints. I bet, But I
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: will say this. You know, for all the freedoms that
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: our politicians could give the people, freedom to be a
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: landlord without having to deal with these crazy things, freedom
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: to go about the city with that congestion pricing, freedom
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: to do fracking and upstate New York, the one freedom they'll
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: give them is pot This is like the bread and
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: circus of the ancient Roman empire.
• 28:01
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: Don't give the people's citizenship, don't give them the people
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: the right of them wine. Don't give them give them wine,
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: give them, give them distractions.
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: Yes, I mean, oh on casinos. That's another thing. And
• 28:12
  Speaker 4: again I'm not a nark.
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: I'm not saying we shouldn't have Cassine. I'm not saying
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: we should go arrest people for smoking. Don't get me wrong.
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: But this is what the government gets, the cynicism. This
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: is what the government thinks of the people. Oh, Fernando, you,
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: you and you and your people. You don't want jobs,
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: You just want to smoke a blunt And that's what
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: they think of us.
• 28:28
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 28:28
  Speaker 6: Right now today they're gonna be voting on whether to
• 28:31
  Speaker 6: hike the rents or not. And I'm thinking about these
• 28:35
  Speaker 6: landlords that invested their money in these buildings, and they
• 28:40
  Speaker 6: need to be able to make enough money to pay
• 28:43
  Speaker 6: the rent.
• 28:44
  Speaker 7: I mean to pay the taxes.
• 28:45
  Speaker 6: Every time the city raises taxes on landlords, they have
• 28:51
  Speaker 6: to pass it along. You know, you can't collect ten
• 28:54
  Speaker 6: thousand dollars in rent and have eleven thousand dollars in expenses.
• 28:58
  Speaker 6: You're gonna go You're not gonna be able to provide heat,
• 29:01
  Speaker 6: You're not going to be able to maintain the building.
• 29:03
  Speaker 6: You're not going to be able to support, you know,
• 29:06
  Speaker 6: the building, the structure of the building. So how many
• 29:10
  Speaker 6: more affordable housings do we need to stop this craziness?
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: Well, I have to ask John Caste. And this is
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: good news, Fernando, because we heard just yesterday that in Massachusetts,
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: the state Supreme Court is not going to allow the
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: voters because I feel this is an a violation of
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: the landlord's rights. Massachusetts was going to put on the
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: ballot this November a rent control referendum bill that would
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: have very much increased the rent control restrictions. In other words,
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: would have made the landlord's charge even less, would have
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: given them much less a chance to make any kind
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: of a profit. And to their credit, Massachusetts, of all states,
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: even the Massachusetts States Supreme Court said this is not constitutional.
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: This is crazy. You can't let people do that. Now
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: I'm hoping that this will resonate elsewhere. Of course I
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: probably shouldn't hold my breath. But as a landlord, I mean,
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: you gotta like this ruling from Oudam, Massachusetts.
• 29:59
  Speaker 7: You know, New York's c is comprised of five boroughs.
• 30:02
  Speaker 7: If you've got to Staten Island, the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens,
• 30:07
  Speaker 7: certain areas of those boroughs are affordable. Even Manhattan, you
• 30:12
  Speaker 7: go downtown, you have a lot of affordable housing.
• 30:15
  Speaker 6: Downtown, you have all of the city. Nicha. Who's the
• 30:19
  Speaker 6: worst landlord by the way. You know the city goes
• 30:22
  Speaker 6: after landlords, ye, because they don't maintain their buildings. But
• 30:25
  Speaker 6: look at Nicha. You know it's a simple development. Why
• 30:29
  Speaker 6: don't they privatize Nicha.
• 30:32
  Speaker 7: So that people could live with dignity, honor, and you know,
• 30:36
  Speaker 7: make sure that people pay rent. But you know that's
• 30:38
  Speaker 7: another thing. People are not paying their rent.
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: They're not And and you have people like this Stars Vaeschevliet,
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: who by the Way is on record saying that she
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: wants to destroy capitalism and things like that. She also
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: wants to get rid of the rules that keep murderers
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: and rapists out of Nischa. So imagine you're living in
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: Nicha're you have the worst landlord in the city, the
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: paint is peeling, You don't ride the elevator because it's
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: a death trap. And now Diary Liza, you know them,
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: wants to put a drug dealer and a rais and
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: a murderer next door to you.
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: Have a nice day. And by the way, none of
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: them ever live.
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: In these places. They don't go to these places. You know,
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: we are so on the wrong track in this country,
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: remember Fernando, Like twenty twenty five, thirty years ago, when
• 31:21
  Speaker 3: big cities like Chicago finally realized this and they started
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: closing down these death trap large public housing development where
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: they closed Cabrini Green, which was an infamous public housing
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: project in an otherwise decent area. Meanwhile, the Robert Taylor
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: Houses on the South side of Chicago remained, and they
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: are really, really dangerous. These places are like putting people
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: in a virtual prison. It really is, and it's dangerous.
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: And this is the this is the generosity of the government.
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: No, thank you.
• 31:47
  Speaker 6: You know what, You go to city housing projects and
• 31:50
  Speaker 6: as you said, you walk in the stench, the smell, right.
• 31:54
  Speaker 7: The garbage, the drug dealing, the shootings.
• 31:58
  Speaker 6: You know, most of the s shootings that happen around
• 32:01
  Speaker 6: New York City happen in public housing.
• 32:04
  Speaker 7: Right. Yet you know the people who control a public.
• 32:09
  Speaker 6: Housing or affordable housing in New York don't take note
• 32:12
  Speaker 6: of that.
• 32:13
  Speaker 5: Let me say something, there's more a bigger problem than that.
• 32:17
  Speaker 5: I was talking to Bot Schwartz, who is the president
• 32:20
  Speaker 5: of the Police Athletic League, but under the Biden administration
• 32:24
  Speaker 5: he ran New York City Housing Authority, and I asked him,
• 32:29
  Speaker 5: how many of those people don't pay the rent? It's
• 32:32
  Speaker 5: just thirty? Now, what do you do with these people?
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: You're giving them the apartment, you're your et cetera, et cetera.
• 32:40
  Speaker 5: You're giving him the apartment. What are you gonna do
• 32:43
  Speaker 5: a victim and.
• 32:44
  Speaker 7: They're paying three four hundred dollars a month.
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: If victim and making them homeless? What do you do?
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you're stuck. You own them now, you own them?
• 32:52
  Speaker 13: And why should they pay?
• 32:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's that's right.
• 32:56
  Speaker 5: There's something wrong.
• 32:57
  Speaker 6: You know, the American dream is not to come here
• 33:00
  Speaker 6: and milk the country. The American dream is to come
• 33:03
  Speaker 6: here and work and you know, and support your family
• 33:08
  Speaker 6: and do better and grow right. Immigrants now are being
• 33:12
  Speaker 6: convinced that that's not what they should be here for.

  Speaker 2: SID and Friends in the morning on the Red Apple
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: Podcast Network.
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: Joining us right now.
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: PR Executive Extraordinaire Hank Shinkoff from Hank Shaunkoff Community from
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: Shinecoff Communications. We've been talking all morning, Hank, this is
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: Jake Novak inf SID and John is with us and
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: so Fernanda Mateo all morning about how the packaging of
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: this socialism it's been packaged. You know all about PR
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: and packaging and marketing. They've made it sound like something
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: that people can vote for. But it's insane, isn't it.
• 36:15
  Speaker 15: Well, the good morning everyone. First of all, they're very smart.
• 36:19
  Speaker 15: We're not dealing with people who are just a bunch
• 36:21
  Speaker 15: of HAPs. This is very well organized, very well thought through,
• 36:24
  Speaker 15: and very directed with it with particular goals. They're doing
• 36:27
  Speaker 15: a very good job. And what we see in these
• 36:29
  Speaker 15: campaigns of the day before yesterday is in confidence of
• 36:34
  Speaker 15: old style campaigning, when what really really is happening is
• 36:39
  Speaker 15: that everything old is new again. What do I mean
• 36:41
  Speaker 15: by that? Yes, social media matters, but being on the
• 36:44
  Speaker 15: street matters. I'm the idiot that predicted that Mamdanie and
• 36:47
  Speaker 15: John knows this would be the mayor in January twenty
• 36:49
  Speaker 15: twenty five. And I also said the campaigns would be
• 36:52
  Speaker 15: run stupidly against him, which they were, because no one
• 36:55
  Speaker 15: understood that you had to get on the street and
• 36:57
  Speaker 15: that the old style of doing it mattered. So what
• 36:59
  Speaker 15: they've combined is old style bosses and plus new technology,
• 37:03
  Speaker 15: and the end result is that New York is in
• 37:04
  Speaker 15: very serious trouble.
• 37:05
  Speaker 3: Hanks Shinkoff, can can you get a little bit more
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: detail about getting on the street. Are we talking about
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: knocking on doors? Are we talking about rallies?
• 37:12
  Speaker 15: What are we talking about doors and rallies and creating
• 37:15
  Speaker 15: excitement and also targeting in the mayoral campaign. My first sense,
• 37:20
  Speaker 15: and I said this to John on this program, was
• 37:22
  Speaker 15: that Big hit what we call zero out of fours
• 37:25
  Speaker 15: people who were who voted in zero of the last
• 37:27
  Speaker 15: four elections and who were under thirty five, which is
• 37:30
  Speaker 15: exactly what they did. They turned down a new constituency
• 37:33
  Speaker 15: that no one had thought about for a long time,
• 37:35
  Speaker 15: and they were very successful at it. And then they
• 37:36
  Speaker 15: hit doors. And I said at the time that they'd
• 37:38
  Speaker 15: hit forty thousand people on the street, which they did,
• 37:41
  Speaker 15: and one hundred thousand on election day, which they did.
• 37:44
  Speaker 15: So what we have is is lugubrious, old stylet kind
• 37:49
  Speaker 15: of politics. Meeting a new style of politics which is
• 37:52
  Speaker 15: entirely mission directed, and frankly it's working. Now why is
• 37:57
  Speaker 15: it working Because fewer people really are turning out overall,
• 38:01
  Speaker 15: but the people that are most excited by the kind
• 38:03
  Speaker 15: of organizing they're turning out with great intensity. And paranthetically,
• 38:07
  Speaker 15: these are the very same people who destroyed neighborhoods gentrify them.
• 38:10
  Speaker 15: So people used to live there were more blue collar
• 38:12
  Speaker 15: can't afford to live there, so they're revolving thing against themselves.
• 38:15
  Speaker 15: It's kind of fascinating to watch.
• 38:17
  Speaker 7: Hank Fernando Matteo here, good morning. What do we need
• 38:21
  Speaker 7: to do to get people over forty, over fifty, over
• 38:25
  Speaker 7: sixty to come out and vote. What do we need
• 38:29
  Speaker 7: to you know, like pull the plug on this movement,
• 38:33
  Speaker 7: on the socialist movement that's going on.
• 38:36
  Speaker 15: So first first, I think Fernando personal, good morning, and
• 38:39
  Speaker 15: I think that's a very important question. Look, let's define
• 38:42
  Speaker 15: what we're talking about here. You know, traditional political science
• 38:45
  Speaker 15: and academic thinking, the social movement tends not to accomplish
• 38:48
  Speaker 15: anything because once it does, it goes out of business.
• 38:51
  Speaker 15: Class examples are the townsen movement, which wanted to create
• 38:55
  Speaker 15: pensions for everybody. Social security was pasted, end of towns
• 38:58
  Speaker 15: and movement, you haven't heard of it, prohibition and the
• 39:02
  Speaker 15: things related to it. You create prohibitions, suddenly the people
• 39:04
  Speaker 15: around it disappeared, the suffragettes and everybody else. That being said,
• 39:09
  Speaker 15: as long as you create nothing but you have excitement
• 39:11
  Speaker 15: on the street, you're going to have these kinds of
• 39:14
  Speaker 15: things continue. And it's generally a reaction to the other side.
• 39:17
  Speaker 15: I eat more Trump, more chaos on the up on
• 39:21
  Speaker 15: the left. So as long as they're out there carrying
• 39:23
  Speaker 15: on and doing nothing is going to continue. So maybe
• 39:27
  Speaker 15: one of the solutions is for something to happen, or
• 39:29
  Speaker 15: a real debate in public that is most onerous and
• 39:32
  Speaker 15: that makes people who pay the bills say wait a second.
• 39:35
  Speaker 15: Or another way to do it is to organize, which
• 39:37
  Speaker 15: means getting more people registered. We're over sixty and who
• 39:42
  Speaker 15: have a basic antipathy to the hateful, hateful group of people. Now,
• 39:49
  Speaker 15: mean it doesn't stop with the Jews, you know, it
• 39:51
  Speaker 15: always begins with the Jews. This will never end with
• 39:54
  Speaker 15: the Jews. And if you look at how they treated
• 39:56
  Speaker 15: Puerto Ricans and how they treat by the way that
• 39:58
  Speaker 15: the Puerto Rican they parade celebrat prior to the event,
• 40:01
  Speaker 15: and how they've been treating other people. They particularly have
• 40:03
  Speaker 15: it on a negative feeling towards black, middle income people
• 40:08
  Speaker 15: who have created some wealth and maybe small property owners.
• 40:11
  Speaker 15: I mean that's very clear. So how do you organize
• 40:13
  Speaker 15: these people? You have to start doing real street organizing,
• 40:16
  Speaker 15: creating coalitions and neighborhoods and doing it on a small
• 40:19
  Speaker 15: scale and then a larger scale.
• 40:20
  Speaker 6: Thank What bothers me the most is the complainers. Now
• 40:23
  Speaker 6: everyone is complaining, complaining that the city's become socialists. You
• 40:28
  Speaker 6: know what we cause that people that are forty, fifty, sixty,
• 40:34
  Speaker 6: seventy years old that used to come out and vote
• 40:36
  Speaker 6: year after year after year, they need to get out
• 40:39
  Speaker 6: there again. You know, the messages get you know, let
• 40:43
  Speaker 6: these young people have a movement going. But we have experience,
• 40:48
  Speaker 6: we have wisdom, We know what the damage is. Right,
• 40:52
  Speaker 6: So you know, listen, you're an expert in this field.
• 40:55
  Speaker 6: You need to tell New York what they need to
• 40:58
  Speaker 6: do to stop this brutal, brutal situation that's going on
• 41:04
  Speaker 6: with the socialism and all that nonsense.
• 41:07
  Speaker 15: Well, it is dangerous. Look when they build it, a
• 41:12
  Speaker 15: lot of what he's talking about his talk. He's not
• 41:14
  Speaker 15: accomplished very much, but the beauty and how smart he is.
• 41:16
  Speaker 15: And he's very very smart, brilliant, very very dangerous, very
• 41:19
  Speaker 15: very smart, very very dangerous, like like Hitler and Solent.
• 41:22
  Speaker 15: And what the stupid kids don't understand is that when
• 41:25
  Speaker 15: you create these social movements to become political or achieve something,
• 41:29
  Speaker 15: the first casri of people who invented them or a
• 41:31
  Speaker 15: part of them are just generally executed, removed. That's who
• 41:34
  Speaker 15: they are. If you look at I look at the
• 41:38
  Speaker 15: Lenin Stalin. Even Hitler in nineteen thirty four killed the
• 41:42
  Speaker 15: first line of defenders, which was the Stormtroopers, in one night.
• 41:45
  Speaker 7: He shot them, Hank, but we can't shoot these people here,
• 41:48
  Speaker 7: who are in New York City were What.
• 41:51
  Speaker 15: I'm saying is that older people understand the dangers younger
• 41:54
  Speaker 15: people do not. And the way you deal with it
• 41:56
  Speaker 15: is you start organizing on a smaller basis. Get Blacks
• 41:59
  Speaker 15: and Jews and Asians together in one place. Start talking
• 42:02
  Speaker 15: Latinos who have a vested interest in the economic system
• 42:06
  Speaker 15: and who are just beginning to make their way. People
• 42:08
  Speaker 15: who work for a living need to be told. Tell
• 42:10
  Speaker 15: Albanian people they have a place to be those who
• 42:13
  Speaker 15: remain in New York City and try to stem the exodus.
• 42:15
  Speaker 15: We're going to have an exodus from New York. Why
• 42:17
  Speaker 15: always do when you have these cataclysmics political events that
• 42:20
  Speaker 15: also have an economic bent to them.
• 42:22
  Speaker 4: But you need going on right now.
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: Thank you introduced an interesting angle of immigration there just
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: for a moment there, you know, targeted towards the people
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: we want. You know, I used to work in Cleveland
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: in the mid nineties. I returned just to take my
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: daughter there for a summer internship a couple of years ago.
• 42:37
  Speaker 4: And Cleveland is booming.
• 42:39
  Speaker 3: And one of the reasons why it's booming is that
• 42:41
  Speaker 3: they have all these Eastern European immigrants from these countries
• 42:44
  Speaker 3: that have excellent engineering and tech education programs, like some
• 42:48
  Speaker 3: of the countries you mentioned, but I'm talking also about
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: like the former Czechoslovakia, places like Lithuania, places like Ukraine,
• 42:56
  Speaker 3: and it's booming. And I wonder if that's a way
• 42:59
  Speaker 3: I mean again, if we want people who know about socialism,
• 43:02
  Speaker 3: bring the people who were suffered under it and now
• 43:04
  Speaker 3: have been liberated from it in their countries and maybe
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: can bring that experience here well.
• 43:08
  Speaker 15: That's possible, but you know, you have to create an
• 43:11
  Speaker 15: entrepreneurial environment that creates competition between those who have never
• 43:15
  Speaker 15: paid a price and are born a burden and those
• 43:17
  Speaker 15: who haven't understanding. Part of what's going on here is
• 43:19
  Speaker 15: you have a young generation of people who have never
• 43:22
  Speaker 15: had a tough day overall, who have never had to
• 43:24
  Speaker 15: go without a meal, who don't understand what it means
• 43:26
  Speaker 15: to be on the street, who are who have never
• 43:29
  Speaker 15: born a burden or paid a price for the democracy
• 43:32
  Speaker 15: and the environment we're living in, and furthermore, who stand
• 43:35
  Speaker 15: to be the greatest inheritors of the most amount of
• 43:37
  Speaker 15: wealth in the history of mankind over the next generation.
• 43:39
  Speaker 15: They're also highly educated, and they think that they're owed something.
• 43:42
  Speaker 15: I mean, it's a choice between standing up and taking
• 43:45
  Speaker 15: principle and having a nine dollar latte. They're going to
• 43:47
  Speaker 15: do both of them.
• 43:48
  Speaker 3: I want to change the subject just for one second.
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: Hand the lead story of throughout the world, and we
• 43:53
  Speaker 3: talked about it extensively, these terrible earthquakes in Venezuela, and
• 43:57
  Speaker 3: how we know we know the American people in the matter,
• 44:00
  Speaker 3: who's in charge, no matter what's going on.
• 44:02
  Speaker 4: Politically, will be there to help.
• 44:04
  Speaker 3: President Trump of course pledging that, and we know that,
• 44:07
  Speaker 3: and this isn't just an empty promise. We always show
• 44:09
  Speaker 3: up to help. But from a public relations point of view,
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: how do we get that message across to everyone? How
• 44:16
  Speaker 3: to do this right? You know, I'm thinking of how
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: the American people responded to tsunami years ago, back in
• 44:21
  Speaker 3: you know, in Thailand, and things like, can you talk
• 44:23
  Speaker 3: a little bit about how this kind of public relations
• 44:26
  Speaker 3: is a little bit different?
• 44:28
  Speaker 15: Sure is different. You have to get people to believe
• 44:30
  Speaker 15: they belong to something. What we have is what we have.
• 44:33
  Speaker 15: What we have is a group of people who somehow
• 44:35
  Speaker 15: believe they don't belong to anything and they're owed something.
• 44:38
  Speaker 15: We have not created or helped to create the civic
• 44:40
  Speaker 15: culture in this country, and as a result of that,
• 44:44
  Speaker 15: we have we have real problems because we don't have
• 44:49
  Speaker 15: people who believe they have to serve or do anything.
• 44:51
  Speaker 15: You know, we don't have We should give me any
• 44:53
  Speaker 15: people of the Peace Corps. We should be telling people
• 44:55
  Speaker 15: there's an incentive to go and teach in afternoons in
• 44:58
  Speaker 15: schools and do something worth well, and that you know,
• 45:02
  Speaker 15: we're not doing that. We're not saying that people go
• 45:04
  Speaker 15: serve the nation. You know a lot of us and
• 45:06
  Speaker 15: maybe on this call, have either been in the service,
• 45:09
  Speaker 15: or been police officers, or been teachers or done something
• 45:12
  Speaker 15: that gets to create some societal good. So you have
• 45:15
  Speaker 15: a generation of people that have created no societal good
• 45:18
  Speaker 15: but except to complain, and they believe that that's the
• 45:20
  Speaker 15: civic culture. There's going to restore the civic culture in
• 45:23
  Speaker 15: New York City as well. Tell these kids, if they
• 45:25
  Speaker 15: want to protest, great, go protest in an afternoon in
• 45:28
  Speaker 15: an inner city school and teach young kids how to read. Okay,
• 45:31
  Speaker 15: go register people to vote who aren't like you. Go
• 45:35
  Speaker 15: spend some time on the street, and you do youth works.
• 45:38
  Speaker 15: I mean, but they're not We're not telling them they
• 45:40
  Speaker 15: have an obligation, and so long as they don't have
• 45:42
  Speaker 15: an obligation, they have nothing to do but spend time
• 45:44
  Speaker 15: complaining and about what about what they don't have or
• 45:47
  Speaker 15: should have.
• 45:48
  Speaker 5: When I was running from mayor, you remember what I
• 45:50
  Speaker 5: pushed more vocational schools, you know, teach people how to work.
• 45:58
  Speaker 16: You know, well, what are the.
• 46:00
  Speaker 15: These are Bill Clinton's thinking? You may recall and there
• 46:03
  Speaker 15: was a period of time when I when I worked
• 46:04
  Speaker 15: for him, and you know him certainly very well. Is
• 46:07
  Speaker 15: that he believed that community colleges ought to be entirely
• 46:09
  Speaker 15: attached deductible teaching people how to have real skill and
• 46:14
  Speaker 15: making them making helping them to note that there is
• 46:16
  Speaker 15: some value to that work, would go a long way
• 46:19
  Speaker 15: to just sending this post, this socialist nonsense. Why because
• 46:24
  Speaker 15: you give them a reason to live.
• 46:25
  Speaker 17: PR genius, to feel productive.
• 46:27
  Speaker 4: PR genius.
• 46:28
  Speaker 3: Hank shin Cuff speaking with us and maybe making a
• 46:31
  Speaker 3: case for a new kind of draft in America, not
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: just military, but many different choices we're gonna take. Yeah,
• 46:38
  Speaker 3: and we still do, but people don't rush to it.
• 46:40
  Speaker 3: But I think that if you gave every high school
• 46:42
  Speaker 3: graduate in America that they have to give it to
• 46:44
  Speaker 3: at least one year of service. You can choose military,
• 46:46
  Speaker 3: you can choose Peace Corps, you can choose teach for America.
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: Give them five or six choices and get the unions
• 46:51
  Speaker 3: out of the way, because that's what they stopped. Bill
• 46:52
  Speaker 3: Clinton wanted to do that with Americorp. You remember, the
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: union stopped him. But Hank Shinkoff, thank you so much
• 46:57
  Speaker 3: for joining, and we're going to be right back.
• 47:00
  Speaker 15: Thank you so much.
• 47:01
  Speaker 7: And we have Judge Weinberg that just joined us.
• 47:04
  Speaker 4: We'll hear him when we come back.
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: Stick with us Sid and Friends in the morning on
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: the Red Apple podcast network.
• 47:12
  Speaker 3: We want to get you updated on the number one
• 47:13
  Speaker 3: story nationally internationally this region of the world, Venezuela, two
• 47:17
  Speaker 3: massive earthquakes late yesterday. I don't want to do death
• 47:22
  Speaker 3: toll guesses because I hope they're wrong, but they are
• 47:25
  Speaker 3: saying that thousands are missing. That we can say. And
• 47:28
  Speaker 3: the videos of and the pictures we've been seeing, and
• 47:30
  Speaker 3: sure many you have seen as well of the bomb.
• 47:32
  Speaker 3: It looked like bomb buildings in Caracas. Caracas was I
• 47:35
  Speaker 3: guess the epicenter of it, which is very bad when
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: a major city like that is an epicenter. So President
• 47:40
  Speaker 3: Trump very aggressively promising aid and support from the United States.
• 47:44
  Speaker 3: And this is not necessarily anything new. The United States
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: and our government and our people are the most charitable
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: and proactive in the world when it comes to natural disasters.
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: Please don't think anything else. So we wanted to give
• 47:56
  Speaker 3: you updated on that. We'll be keeping We'll be watching that.
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: But of course, the continue situation here in New York City,
• 48:02
  Speaker 3: and then the political realm is also a developing and
• 48:05
  Speaker 3: still breaking story. And for that we have a great,
• 48:06
  Speaker 3: great guest, Craig McCarthy. He is the City Hall bureau
• 48:09
  Speaker 3: chief at the New York Post. And Craig, you know,
• 48:12
  Speaker 3: obviously the election was Tuesday night and we're here Thursday,
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: but the reverberations are still shaking. Not to make a
• 48:19
  Speaker 3: comparison with Venezuela, but this is still shaking throughout the
• 48:22
  Speaker 3: city and throughout the country, isn't it.
• 48:24
  Speaker 16: Yeah, Hey, thanks for having me today. Yeah, I mean, listen,
• 48:27
  Speaker 16: this this shocked the political world. We have a three
• 48:29
  Speaker 16: you know, very far left candidates who you know, got
• 48:33
  Speaker 16: elected to the House on Tuesday night, from one of
• 48:36
  Speaker 16: whom you know, unseated a long standing incumbent in Adriana Leslihoff.
• 48:42
  Speaker 5: Well, he was also the head of the Spanish contingency.
• 48:46
  Speaker 16: Yeah he was. He was the chair in the his
• 48:48
  Speaker 16: Hispanic Caucus. I mean he was a very powerful member.
• 48:50
  Speaker 16: I mean we saw Hakeem Jeffries even get into the race.
• 48:53
  Speaker 16: He came down, he broke it a truce between Adriano
• 48:59
  Speaker 16: and Jordan Wright, you know, hoping to mend fences with
• 49:02
  Speaker 16: the black community, gets you know, the black vote out
• 49:05
  Speaker 16: for him. But you know that didn't happen. Notably, Jordan
• 49:09
  Speaker 16: right is the only one that was challenged by DSA
• 49:12
  Speaker 16: member in the city and state in federal in New
• 49:15
  Speaker 16: York City who actually came out and won. So, you know,
• 49:19
  Speaker 16: kind of anecdotally, we're believing that it seems like, you know,
• 49:22
  Speaker 16: those votes would have split the ticket. He would have
• 49:25
  Speaker 16: voted for you know, Daria Liza on the federal side
• 49:29
  Speaker 16: and Jordan on the state side.
• 49:31
  Speaker 4: Judge Weinberg, Craig good to talk to you.
• 49:34
  Speaker 18: See, I'm not surprised. In fact, if you look at
• 49:38
  Speaker 18: it carefully, you can understand exactly how it happened. You
• 49:41
  Speaker 18: have the breakdown of the old political organizations, also known
• 49:44
  Speaker 18: as the machines, is replaced by a new machine, which
• 49:47
  Speaker 18: is working families parties. In the DSA, you have a
• 49:50
  Speaker 18: lot of out of state indeed perhaps foreign national money
• 49:54
  Speaker 18: coming in. They target blue districts with a certain demographic,
• 50:00
  Speaker 18: so uh so they're not targeting swing districts. So all
• 50:04
  Speaker 18: that combined, it's not it's not an impossible thing to do.
• 50:08
  Speaker 18: And sometimes in commons stay too long and they take
• 50:12
  Speaker 18: for granted the historical built in advantages which no longer exist.
• 50:16
  Speaker 18: The machine in the Democratic Party today is the left
• 50:19
  Speaker 18: wing radical socialists, not the old time Tammany Hall Club
• 50:23
  Speaker 18: has types your thoughts.
• 50:26
  Speaker 16: Well, I mean, I think there's two parts here. I
• 50:28
  Speaker 16: mean just just taking the DSA and Working Families at
• 50:31
  Speaker 16: this point, I mean, this could be the end of
• 50:33
  Speaker 16: the Working Families Party. The DSA is, I mean the
• 50:37
  Speaker 16: Manzani was elected with a coalition between the two. But
• 50:39
  Speaker 16: if we if we look at it, you know, Antonio
• 50:43
  Speaker 16: in the New York seven races, Renoso, we're going again,
• 50:45
  Speaker 16: Clare Valdez who won. You know, Antonio was the Working
• 50:48
  Speaker 16: Families nominate. You know, that was supposed to be the coalition.
• 50:51
  Speaker 16: They don't have the ground game anymore. They don't have
• 50:53
  Speaker 16: the infrastructure that the DSA has now. But you know, separately,
• 50:57
  Speaker 16: when it comes down to the Democratic machine, I mean
• 51:00
  Speaker 16: or that kind of thing. I mean, listen, Adriano was
• 51:04
  Speaker 16: they were not ready for this, Let's put it that way.
• 51:05
  Speaker 16: They were not they were not prepared for a far
• 51:07
  Speaker 16: left challenge. The mayor had shook his hand, said he
• 51:10
  Speaker 16: was going to endorse him, and he went back on
• 51:12
  Speaker 16: that word and and back, and you know, endorsed dar
• 51:14
  Speaker 16: Eliza here. But I think too. You know, if we
• 51:17
  Speaker 16: look at take you know, take take the thousand foot view,
• 51:19
  Speaker 16: here is you know, Democrats they could keem Jeffries, the
• 51:24
  Speaker 16: party leaders are are are looking at other things. They're
• 51:28
  Speaker 16: looking at the big picture of trying to win the
• 51:30
  Speaker 16: House back for them in November. They were trying to
• 51:34
  Speaker 16: broke or peace so they didn't have to face a
• 51:36
  Speaker 16: challenge on the far left. I mean, this is just
• 51:38
  Speaker 16: this is democratic infighting. And you know, I think when
• 51:41
  Speaker 16: we're talking to people the last few days, if you know,
• 51:46
  Speaker 16: Republicans could use this to capitalize to maybe kind of
• 51:49
  Speaker 16: stave off any of the of the losses they'll have
• 51:51
  Speaker 16: in November, because this is what they're going to paint
• 51:54
  Speaker 16: the Democratic Party, as you're saying, as being that far left,
• 51:57
  Speaker 16: which is what people like Jefferies Holp the modern contingent
• 52:01
  Speaker 16: that are trying to do. But again they're lost a
• 52:05
  Speaker 16: big time on Tuesday. So if that's seemingly where the
• 52:08
  Speaker 16: party is, at least the momentum of the party is.
• 52:11
  Speaker 7: Craig, this is Fernando Matteo. Thank you for being here. Listen.
• 52:18
  Speaker 6: I just believe that the dynamics of the Democratic Party
• 52:23
  Speaker 6: is changed. I believe that the older Democrats are not
• 52:28
  Speaker 6: paying attention anymore. I think they're fed up. I think
• 52:33
  Speaker 6: they just simply aren't coming out to vote. And if
• 52:36
  Speaker 6: we don't get the forty fifty, sixty seventy year olds
• 52:39
  Speaker 6: coming out to vote, this is what's gonna happen. You're
• 52:42
  Speaker 6: gonna have these young, white, crazy socialist young people coming out.
• 52:50
  Speaker 6: Only ten percent of the people voted in these regions.
• 52:54
  Speaker 6: Ten percent of the people voted, and they were the crazies.
• 52:58
  Speaker 6: It wasn't your pickle Democrat. So what is happening? You know,
• 53:04
  Speaker 6: the Democratic Party is crumbling.
• 53:06
  Speaker 7: We all know that.
• 53:07
  Speaker 6: Schumer and Hakeem I think are past tense. I don't
• 53:10
  Speaker 6: think they're going anywhere. And that's what's going on in
• 53:14
  Speaker 6: New York City. I remember growing up, never would a.
• 53:18
  Speaker 7: Democrat challenge another Democrat and incumbent until Locasio Cortes came
• 53:23
  Speaker 7: in and and crumbled brought Crowley right. Then the movement
• 53:28
  Speaker 7: started and it hasn't stopped, and people are not coming
• 53:31
  Speaker 7: out to vote. What do we do Your opinion.
• 53:36
  Speaker 16: Well, I mean, I think just for the record, Adriano
• 53:40
  Speaker 16: did cover challengeing it and in coming back and towards
• 53:44
  Speaker 16: you know, so does happen. But I see, but I
• 53:48
  Speaker 16: see your point. I think I think when we look
• 53:49
  Speaker 16: at this and we take a step back, and you know,
• 53:52
  Speaker 16: a lot of this is riding on Zora Mumdani, right,
• 53:54
  Speaker 16: riding on his name recognition, riding on that and this
• 53:58
  Speaker 16: this new movement within the Democratic Party to push free
• 54:02
  Speaker 16: Palestine in this anti Israel contingent and getting people motivated
• 54:07
  Speaker 16: to vote through through basically one or two issues here, right,
• 54:11
  Speaker 16: like telling people to get out to vote for free
• 54:14
  Speaker 16: Palestine or you know, we want to make the city
• 54:17
  Speaker 16: more af forwardable. It's very small digestible things to get
• 54:19
  Speaker 16: people motivated. That's right. We are not seeing the older
• 54:24
  Speaker 16: Democratic voters coming out there. But this has always been
• 54:28
  Speaker 16: these have always been low voter turnout races. So what
• 54:31
  Speaker 16: they are doing is they're capitalizing these things. This is
• 54:34
  Speaker 16: what the DSA does throughout the city. They move people
• 54:37
  Speaker 16: into districts, They get residency in areas where they know
• 54:41
  Speaker 16: that they're either you know, gentrified areas, younger populations that
• 54:47
  Speaker 16: they can go in and they can you know, and
• 54:50
  Speaker 16: it's not a competitive district and try to get a seat.
• 54:52
  Speaker 16: And then that's that's what they're looking at. Here and
• 54:55
  Speaker 16: what the party has to do, and it's I'm assuming
• 54:59
  Speaker 16: this is what they've been doing for the last two days.
• 55:01
  Speaker 16: Last day, he is trying to figure out how to
• 55:05
  Speaker 16: motivate people to come out to vote. Because if even
• 55:08
  Speaker 16: if you don't like ORMM Donnie John, I know you've
• 55:11
  Speaker 16: sat with him. He's a very good politician. He's very charming,
• 55:15
  Speaker 16: he's going to he's very good, he's a very good
• 55:18
  Speaker 16: oratory like he's he's his great presence. And they're all
• 55:22
  Speaker 16: riding off of this. I mean, I would not say
• 55:24
  Speaker 16: that about Daria Liza, I would not say that about
• 55:26
  Speaker 16: Claire belas you know, I would not say that about
• 55:28
  Speaker 16: Brad Lander, which Bradlander was going to win regardless of
• 55:32
  Speaker 16: a mom Donnie endorsement. But as he said that, you know,
• 55:36
  Speaker 16: they're riding off of this, this great politician in this
• 55:40
  Speaker 16: of being able to convince people to get out to vote,
• 55:44
  Speaker 16: having good ads, having good political people around him. It's
• 55:47
  Speaker 16: kind of why I see that this won't be cannot
• 55:51
  Speaker 16: be replicated at least as of now, outside of outside
• 55:53
  Speaker 16: of New York City. But you know, when we have
• 55:57
  Speaker 16: they're riding this momentum of zorn here and the question
• 56:00
  Speaker 16: that what needs to happen for the Democrat establishment is
• 56:03
  Speaker 16: they need to find somebody like that, which they have not,
• 56:06
  Speaker 16: and they've been told this for years.
• 56:08
  Speaker 4: We're talking to Craig McCarthy.
• 56:09
  Speaker 3: He is the bureau chief City Hall bureau chief at
• 56:12
  Speaker 3: the New York Post, and Craig, you know, we should
• 56:15
  Speaker 3: follow up for our listeners because yesterday we were talking
• 56:18
  Speaker 3: about when we were asking will people show up to
• 56:20
  Speaker 3: this coffee shop protest in Williamsburg against this coffee shop
• 56:24
  Speaker 3: Poetica coffee that discriminated and against Dan Goldman and boasted
• 56:29
  Speaker 3: that he was a genocide supporter and they wouldn't serve
• 56:32
  Speaker 3: him a clear civil rights violation. And that does seem
• 56:34
  Speaker 3: like there was a decent turnout there. But I have
• 56:37
  Speaker 3: to ask you a question to someone who understands city
• 56:39
  Speaker 3: Hall and the City Council when we talk about these
• 56:42
  Speaker 3: anti Semitic things going on in the city. Honestly, do
• 56:46
  Speaker 3: people in the city Council and City Hall look at
• 56:48
  Speaker 3: it as something that they need to fix or are
• 56:51
  Speaker 3: they looking at it very intriguingly and thinking, Gee, if
• 56:54
  Speaker 3: just a few thousand voters in a primary can get
• 56:56
  Speaker 3: us a victory, maybe we can use anti Semitism as
• 56:59
  Speaker 3: a carrot and a stick to get people. I mean
• 57:02
  Speaker 3: it seems to me like some people are taking advantage
• 57:04
  Speaker 3: of it.
• 57:04
  Speaker 16: Craig Well, I think that we could talk. I mean,
• 57:08
  Speaker 16: this has been the conversation because we don't have I
• 57:10
  Speaker 16: mean people, let's start off with saying, people in the
• 57:12
  Speaker 16: city council, Yes, they're taking very seriously. I mean the
• 57:15
  Speaker 16: speaker is Jewish, Julie Mennon. I mean she's taking very seriously.
• 57:20
  Speaker 16: You know, we have a police commissioner who is Jewish
• 57:23
  Speaker 16: who was taking this very seriously when it comes to
• 57:25
  Speaker 16: actually crossing the line into crimes. But I think, you know,
• 57:28
  Speaker 16: when we take a step back, it's the again the
• 57:31
  Speaker 16: rhetoric that's coming out, and I think you know what
• 57:34
  Speaker 16: the allegations are coming out of. When Zoron had the
• 57:38
  Speaker 16: rally about two weeks ago on a Thursday, and he
• 57:41
  Speaker 16: referred to Apak as monsters and using some of the terminology,
• 57:45
  Speaker 16: people thinking it's a dog whistle, you know, the mean
• 57:48
  Speaker 16: like for anti Semitism that you know, to rile up
• 57:51
  Speaker 16: the base. And you know, I think it's it's it's
• 57:54
  Speaker 16: as I was saying, I mean, this is basically what
• 57:56
  Speaker 16: these campaigns are they've been riding on vibes and this
• 58:00
  Speaker 16: free Palisfi movement, you know, I mean there's little there's
• 58:04
  Speaker 16: little to no policy behind these people. But dardy'sa Claire
• 58:09
  Speaker 16: and even Brad. I mean it's it's not going I mean,
• 58:12
  Speaker 16: you know, if we're looking at somebody that as a
• 58:14
  Speaker 16: partner to get stuff done, you know, those two people
• 58:17
  Speaker 16: are not going to get anything done in the House
• 58:19
  Speaker 16: because they've just angered the you know establishment. The next
• 58:23
  Speaker 16: Speaker of the House, well likely the next speaker.
• 58:26
  Speaker 2: Sid and Friends in the morning on the Red Apple
• 58:30
  Speaker 2: Podcast network.
• 58:32
  Speaker 4: It's always great to talk to George Patacky and it's.
• 58:34
  Speaker 5: It is one common sense person.
• 58:37
  Speaker 7: It was also George vi'sba birthday yesterday, birthday, Yes, and
• 58:42
  Speaker 7: we didn't sing Happy birthday, George, Happy belated birthday.
• 58:45
  Speaker 13: Yeah.
• 58:46
  Speaker 5: We will read twelve to him later on.
• 58:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, right, but this is a Cats and Company talking
• 58:50
  Speaker 3: with George Pataki yesterday and enjoyed the pearls of wisdom
• 58:54
  Speaker 3: from a common sense leader.
• 58:56
  Speaker 10: Well, lots of breaking news, you guys and John. It
• 58:59
  Speaker 10: was a socialist surge last night in New York and
• 59:03
  Speaker 10: the Democratic Party is going Boy, it looks like a
• 59:06
  Speaker 10: Democratic civil war in many ways, John Well.
• 59:09
  Speaker 5: I hope there's a civil war because we need to
• 59:11
  Speaker 5: be We need the Democratic Party to come back to
• 59:14
  Speaker 5: I guess being only half crazy instead of fully crazy.
• 59:19
  Speaker 11: That's a great analogy.
• 59:20
  Speaker 13: In the studio with us.
• 59:21
  Speaker 5: Today we have Governor protecky Uh and today is his birthday.
• 59:25
  Speaker 5: Happy birthday, Governor.
• 59:26
  Speaker 13: Thank you John.
• 59:27
  Speaker 19: Great to be here again.
• 59:29
  Speaker 8: Birthday.
• 59:29
  Speaker 11: We got a little music for you here, love.
• 59:38
  Speaker 13: To our favorite.
• 59:40
  Speaker 19: This so long as Marilyn Monroe doesn't jump out of
• 59:43
  Speaker 19: a cake.
• 59:46
  Speaker 11: Happy birthday.
• 59:47
  Speaker 10: And as any words of wisdom Governor Patachi on this
• 59:49
  Speaker 10: big day for you.
• 59:51
  Speaker 19: You know, for all the troubles and difficulties, we're lucky
• 59:54
  Speaker 19: to be Americans.
• 59:55
  Speaker 13: And that's my words of wisdom.
• 59:57
  Speaker 11: Yeah, absolutely, amen, the greatest.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 5: We have the former Governor's general console him. Yes, John,
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 5: Archbishop Dolan's console too.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 13: John. You always welcome here, you know that.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 11: Yeah, John, We're so happy you're doing.
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 5: You have solved the nuns problem from Kentucky working on
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 5: you know, we bought a building from the nuns in
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 5: Kentucky and they never got their money.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 11: Not how could I work off?
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 17: I have none of that.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 5: And Deputy Mayor Rudy UH former deputy mayor of Rudy, Washington. Guys,
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 5: there was a big problem this morning. There was a
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 5: bunch of FBI right rates and you guys know anything
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 5: about it. I mean, the FBI rated their former UH
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 5: chief of staff to UH Mayor.
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 11: Adams Frank Coron.
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 5: Frank Coron and you know the guys always seemed to
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 5: be a nice guy.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 11: But yes, Absolute and his brother and other people too.
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 13: It's a big hotel owners or something.
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 19: And I don't know the specifics, John, but I do
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 19: know that the Trump administration is going after fraud and
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 19: our government has had billions and billions stolen from it
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 19: over the last five years and it's a disgrace. And
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 19: whatever they can do to bring the justice those thieves
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 19: and they straighten it out where we're actually spending money
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 19: on the programs as opposed to I'm thieves stealing it.
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 19: I'm all for it.
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 5: And we have Senator Norm Coleman coming on later on
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 5: because a lot of that fraud is Minnesota and that's
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 5: where he was a senator from. And look what happened
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 5: to Norm Coleman. Nine months after he's elected. They find
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 5: out he's three hundred votes short, I mean, give me
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 5: a break.
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 10: Yeah, that was ridiculous, that is, and they're giving waltz
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 10: by the way, the current one sort of it looks
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 10: like our free pass so far. Ilhan Omar though, is
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 10: under investigation because somehow governor first her finances were like
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 10: thirty forty million.
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 11: Now it's like one hundred thousand or ten thousand. I
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 11: mean coming, I.
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 19: Don't know where the thirty million came from, and then
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 19: I don't know where it went.
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 13: But none of it is good news.
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 7: None of it is good news.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 10: And Rudy Washington, what do you make of what happened
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 10: last night in New York too with the elections, because
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 10: because I was live and all of a sudden, all
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 10: of a sudden, this was a wild moment. You saw
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 10: Adriano s Bayat do a concession speech. It was before
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 10: it was even called, but he obviously saw the riding
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 10: on the wall sadly.
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 13: Twenty three hundred, way, yeah, twenty three hundred.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 11: Yeah, twenty three hundred.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 13: That's another thing.
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 20: That's said, yeah, said, when you consider a congressional district,
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 20: he's probably a half million people and you only get
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 20: how many vot charges. The difference between and that was
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 20: twenty three hundred votes. Yeah, that's really sad. And when
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 20: you think about we now have four of what's our
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 20: total number of congress people in the five boroughs were
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 20: about eight or so, Governor, you remember, But anyway, we're
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 20: talking to probably almost half of our congressional delegation is socialists.
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 10: Yeah, hardcore socialist. By the way, let's also explain rudy,
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 10: because this is important. It's not just that they're socialists,
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 10: they are abolish ice. One of them even talked about
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 10: abolishing prisons, said nobody.
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 18: Don't forget about the Pentagon.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 10: Yeah, and wanted one wants to abolish the Pentagon of
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 10: all things. No military aid to Israel and also no deportations.
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 11: One of them said, even those with criminal records, murderers,
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 11: they shouldn't be deported. Is this is a whole new breed.
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 10: Did you ever imagine you'd see this, Governor, I mean,
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 10: at this moment.
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 19: Now, it's just it's just hard to believe. But it's understandable,
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 19: not from the standpoint of what they believe in, but
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 19: the Democratic Party is just so angry that they want
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 19: the activist voters want to kick out anybody who has
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 19: anything to do with the establishment, and it's going to
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 19: be a very real problem, not just for the OS
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 19: but for New York and for America as we try
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 19: to wend our way through this. But you know, somehow
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 19: we'll get through it. But like Andreano espa Yet, he
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 19: was in the legislature in Albany when I was governor,
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 19: very good guy. He was a liberal Democrat. I'm a
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 19: conservative Republican. We got along great, we could talk, we
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 19: could work together. I don't think that's going to be
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 19: the case going forward with these far left, anti Semitic,
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 19: neo Marxist. So it's going to be a tough time,
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 19: but it's still America. We'll get through.
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 5: Extremism in any direction is not good, Governor. That's exactly
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 5: Ye've followed that.
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 10: Yeah, it's really and that's the problem. It's so far
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 10: Like you brought up the Adriano Espayat. I also think
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 10: about Dan Goldman, and we're going to talk with Jake
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 10: coming up, Jake Novic about that coffee shop thing. But
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 10: Dan Goldman, let's not forget he was one of the
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 10: impeachment managers against President Trump, but he wasn't far enough left.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 18: His crime is he's qui as I support of Israel
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 18: as opposed as opposed to Lander, who is a full
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 18: blown anti zion Is anti Israel.
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 5: I mean the other thing back home here in Manhattan,
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 5: Carol of Maloney. They use Jerry Dadler to get rid
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 5: of Caroler Maloney, and then because Jerry Dadler is Jewish,
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 5: in my opinion, that got rid of him. Well, you know,
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 5: I really begin to think we have a cultural problem
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 5: in this country now. When we look at what's happening
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 5: to our culture in terms of moving away from our
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 5: faith in the foundation of America, it's scary.
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 13: It's very scary.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 11: Yeah, it is scary.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 8: Man.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 20: Now, who's the leader of the state governor who's it
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 20: once was supposed to be the governor, but now it
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 20: looks like the mayor Mandami is there.
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 19: You know, really, I fear that you are right that
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 19: he is. He's the one that the press follows. He's
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 19: the one who all the energy and the Democratic Party
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 19: is behind. And I think Albany is very much a
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 19: fraid and he wants something done in Albany. Since it's
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 19: a one party system, I fairly just gonna rubber stamp
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 19: anything he wants to done.
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 5: Look, he has his agenda whatever it may be, you know,
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 5: I've been talking to him in hopes that that common
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 5: sense could prevail. But who knows. Well, the time will tell,
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 5: But at least communications is keeping open. Communications to me is.
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 19: Always good, absolutely, and I think that's the most important thing.
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 13: Is I found dealing looking at the police academic.
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 11: Tomorrow, which is a noble mission, a great mission.
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 13: It's helping the kids.
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 5: It's not about politics, right absolutely.
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 10: The one thing that's interesting is, like to watch the
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 10: Democrats today and we're going to talk to Melissa Durosa
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 10: in a moment, but to watch the dance because some
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 10: of them are definitely perplexed the governor.
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 19: I mean, what do you think done? This is an
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 19: incredible shock. I agree with Melissa DeRosa. I actually agree
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 19: with her that it was a disaster last night. And
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 19: it wasn't just a disaster for the Democratic Party. It's
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 19: a disaster for the state. And you heard what she said.
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 19: They're going to push for higher taxes in Aubany, for
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 19: more crime because they're going to weaken the criminal justice system.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 19: And I fear that they're going to get their way
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 19: because the Democratic other than the DSA people, they're afraid
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 19: of them, and because they're afraid of them. They're going
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 19: to give them what they want. And this state and
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 19: this city are teetering. I don't know if you saw today,
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 19: but Morgan Stanley is considering building a massive, a billion
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 19: and a half dollar new office in North Dallas. And
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 19: this is what's going to be happening over and over
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 19: and over unless we get the state back. And I
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 19: just want to add one more thing. Normally, we have
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 19: checks and balances. One party goes too far and screws up,
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 19: the other party wins. It doesn't happen here because we
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 19: have a one party system. The Democrats are nominating hideous
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 19: candidates who are going to hurt the city and hurt
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 19: the state. But the Republican Party is so weak and
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 19: has such decrepit leadership to be perfectly honest, that we
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 19: don't mount a credible alternative that can point out the
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 19: fact that these people are unacceptable, not just to Republicans
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 19: but the Democrats too. So I fear that they're going
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 19: to have a great November. It's going to be very
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 19: unfortunate for the city, for the state, and for the country.
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 19: But you know, these things have a way of ultimately
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 19: the pendulum comes back. I fear we're going to have
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 19: a few tough years, but we'll get through it.
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 11: Wow, that's a powerful statement.
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, well, governor, did we take a break.
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 13: Now, let's get Rudy.
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 11: Real quick, go ahead. Yeah.
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 20: Well, you know, I've been a champion for the governor,
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 20: been with the governor when he was a senator. But
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 20: on this statement, I can't be that optimistic with what's
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 20: happening in the country. In terms of AI, in terms
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 20: of the Internet, nobody has to be in New York anymore.
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 20: If you remember pre nine to eleven, it was the
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 20: dawn of the Internet, and everybody had to be on
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 20: Wall Street and k forty dollars a square foot. Now
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 20: they don't have to do that. You can do business
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 20: anywhere in the country now. And as the Governor just
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 20: said about Dallas, we're looking at our corporates move across
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 20: this country into the South where the taxes are reasonable
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 20: and low and you know, with a good employment base.
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 10: And public safety. I mean, that's the other that to
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 10: me is the really Yeah, you're driving them away economically,
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 10: and to the Governor's point, you're also if you are
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 10: saying we don't need to deport even murderers and literally
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 10: some are saying that that that why.
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 7: Stay if you don't feel safe?
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 20: Right, We're in trouble with this no bail foolishness state
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 20: they have going absolutely well.
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 5: It's the end of another great show, and I want
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 5: to thank Governor Patacky, John Pale, thank you, and Judge Weinbright,
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 5: Rudy Washington, Rita. What do we all stand for?
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 7: Truth?
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 13: Just American way go get.
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 3: Him and we're still standing for that right now, back
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 3: live here on the Casts and Company take Over and Friends.
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 5: I'll tell you Governor Patacky is one common sense guy.
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 5: And it was his birthday yesterday and happy birthday, Governor
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 5: Packy again.
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 7: Happy birthday, Governor.
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah it was. You know, it's it's great to hear it.
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 3: But it's also sad to think that we had these
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 3: kinds of leaders not that long ago. But we were
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 3: just talking during the you know, during the taping that
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 3: what really helped these guys win Patacky as a Republican
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 3: governor and before that, Rudy Giuliani is Republican for mayor,
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 3: was that they both punted or at least got themselves
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 3: exempted on the pro choy, which issue. They basically were
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 3: both pro choice effectively and that helped them. Now you
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 3: have to if you have any chance in you, they're
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 3: gonna try to get you on being a Trump person
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 3: or not. And that's harder to punt on because he's
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 3: the president now, not an idea.
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 6: Moderate Republicans always succeeded. Right wing Republicans have a harder time.
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 6: I am saying, let's do the Republican Socialist Party, okay,
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 6: so that we get into that whole socialist thing.
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 4: On paper, it makes sense.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 3: But if they're not gonna even give you a chance
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 3: as a Republican unless you say nasty things against Donald Trump,
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 3: which means that you can't be viable as Republican, it's
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 3: it's a it's a catch twenty two.
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 4: All right, we're gonna take a break now.
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 2: Sid and Friends in the morning on the Red Apple
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 2: podcast network.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 4: Olive Garden is in trouble.
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 7: Olive Garden. That was the one they need to advertise
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 7: on WABC if they want to.
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 3: See themselves exactly and get their pro Italian but Italian Americans,
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 3: especially in the city and in New Jersey, if I
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 3: say Olive Garden, I don't go there. But they they
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 3: get so angry, they get so angry.
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 5: My opinion, it's brand x Italian food.
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 3: It's like uh, McDonald's of oh no, McDonald's is yeah
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 3: yeah Iris.
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 18: In Augusta, Maine, and my wife asked the concierge at
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 18: the at the hotel, we need a good Italian Rustians
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 18: have a recommendations. Oh you're lucky, the best one in
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 18: the whole state.
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 4: Well at least she didn't say we have macaroni and cheese.
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 4: How about that?
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 3: But all kidding aside, we are joined now by another
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 3: great Italian American, Vita Facila, the Borough President of Staten Island,
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 3: and uh Borough President Facila. We have to ask you,
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 3: you know, with these crazy elections here in the Manhattan
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 3: part of New York City, is Staten Island prepared to
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 3: be once again the citadel for common sense decent instead
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 3: of running to Florida or Texas?
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 4: Should they run to Staten Island?
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 8: I think if I go to.
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 13: Is picking up the check.
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 8: As John and the judge, you know we have they
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 8: have Italian Italian restaurants in Staten Island, and one's better
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 8: than the other, so that Olive Garden can't do too
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 8: well here. I think, uh, you know, listen, we got
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 8: to just take a step back and really digest what
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 8: happened just a couple of days ago, and it's for real,
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 8: and I think what happened is frankly, the other party
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 8: allowed this to happen, and they allowed the fox in
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 8: the henhouse and they got walked. And it's not a
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 8: good sign for the country in the short term. Over
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 8: the long term, as we all have come to appreciate,
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 8: socialism meets reality fits. Wherever it took hold, it was crushed.
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 8: It destroyed people, destroyed freedoms that destroyed faith based people.
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 8: Everywhere it's been sort of allowed to creep in. It's
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 8: destroyed the countries that it took over, and it takes
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 8: time to root it out. But in the short term
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 8: it's it's rather destructive, and the establishment politicians on the
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 8: other side allowed it and they got their headhanded to them,
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 8: and I don't think it's going to slow down. So
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 8: in the short term it's it's bad for the United
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 8: States of America that socialism is allowed at the table
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 8: because when you start to look at what they want,
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 8: it is corrosive and it hurts people, property owners. It's
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 8: all about class warfare. They want to destroy the capitalist system.
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 8: That we enjoyed and has made this country the best
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 8: in the history of the world. So we just got
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 8: to stand up and every once in a while you
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 8: got to say no. Like just recently, we had a
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 8: situation on Staten Island, a graduation for middle school kid,
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 8: middle school kids thirteen whatever, twelve, thirteen years old, and
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 8: somebody wanted to disrupt the ceremony by in the middle
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 8: of it just displaying a flag to send the political statement,
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 8: and we said, no, you just can't do that, because
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 8: a graduation, like so many things, are for the families,
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 8: for a point of reflection, decorum, and every once in
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 8: a while you got to say no, we can't do that.
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 8: And I think the other party allowed the Socialists in
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 8: far too long and they didn't say no, so ultimately
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 8: they won these primaries, and now we're running major cities
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 8: across the country with disruptive, destructive policies and the ordinary
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 8: folks who are getting up in the morning five five
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 8: thirty to go to work, they're the ones who are
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 8: going to get hurt ultimately, and not the ones who
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 8: want free stuff every single day.
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 7: Vito Fernando Matteo here, how are you?
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 8: You?
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 6: I am great, I am great, and I'm very proud
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 6: of the Staten Islanders and what you guys do there.
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 7: You know, you maintain your independence.
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 6: You know you draw the line when you need to
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 6: draw it, and I commend you for that. But I
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 6: realized that you kept saying that other party the other side.
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 6: You never mentioned the Democratic Party because now there's a
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 6: takeover of the Democratic Socialist Party.
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 7: Right, let me ask you, what are you gonna do with.
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 6: The Democratic Socialist Party goes to Staten Island uh and
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 6: spreads the venom?
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 5: What what?
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 7: What are your thoughts can they do that?
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 8: First of all, it's great to hear your voice, my friend. Uh,
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 8: I my belief I really try not to be a
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 8: partisan guy. I just stand up for what I believe
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 8: and what we should do for the people Stan Island,
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 8: whether it's better schools, safe streets, safe communities, working and
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 8: supporting the men and women the York City Police Department
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 8: supported our first responders, fundamental things. And that's how I've
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 8: run my life. In the political world. What the Democrat
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 8: Party does is their concerns, not mine. My observation is
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 8: that they're making a big mistake long term and the
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 8: short term. There was a primary recently in Staten Island
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 8: for Senate incumbent, and the incumbent won handily. I think
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 8: she got more than seventy percent of the vote because
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 8: the people in Staten Island are sane. You know, they
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 8: have demonstrated common sense, John's favorite phrase for decades, and
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 8: we believe in each other. We believe in again safe communities.
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 8: We don't. You know, when defund the police was the
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 8: catchphrase of the century, we said, that's the dumbest thing
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 8: we've ever heard. So we do. You're right, Fernanda. We
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 8: do retain and maintain our dependence against insanity and stand
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 8: up for common sense, and we will continue to do
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 8: so and support the hard working taxpayers who didn't wake up,
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 8: you know, they didn't wake up on third base and
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 8: say I hit a triple.
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 7: A lot of them suffered like that, like that.
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 8: You know, their families came here from all over the world, Italy, Ireland,
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 8: whatever the case may be. They worked hard, they sacrificed.
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 8: They work two or three jobs for their kids and
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 8: then their grandchildren, and they own a home and they
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 8: have a job, they own a business, and they want
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 8: what they want, what's best for their kids and their families.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 8: And we will continue to support those things. If there's
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 8: another group that comes along from other parts of the country,
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 8: they come here when they're twenty five, A lot of them,
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 8: you know, they've probably never suffered a day of their life,
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 8: and all of a sudden they say, capitalism is terrible,
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 8: the US is terrible. We need to get out out
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 8: of defund the Department of War, in other words, abolish
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 8: the Defense Department. These are insane policies. If implemented, they
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 8: will weight people up.
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 5: It's worse than that Veto. It's worse than that Judge Wainberg,
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 5: what did what did the Esperand's.
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 13: Person that, yeah, she.
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 18: Wants to abolish the Pentagon, just totally get rid of
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 18: the old Defense Department.
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 13: Totally totally abolishing Veto.
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 5: I mean, I mean it was it's just silly stuff.
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 18: No, well, it's all nonsense. And by the way, I'll
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 18: tell you what the big problem Vito and you and
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 18: Ied go back decades and decades together. The big problem
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 18: is they have a momentum going on, and the momentum
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 18: is capturing the young people who do not understand history.
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 18: They understand economics, they understand politics, they understand social cohesion.
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 18: So they have an ideology that's driving them, and they're
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 18: the ones who are coming out to vote. The The
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 18: percentage of voters in this primary is minuscule, And if
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 18: you look at the demographics that came out, there were
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 18: the young kids, and they were likely kids who had
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 18: never been raised here and understood the problems of the
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 18: battle days that you and I know when we were
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 18: at city Hall together about protecting defending the city and
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 18: how easy it is for the tip to go very
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 18: very bad.
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 13: Your thoughts, No, I am.
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 8: Blessed to have a relationship with Judge Weinberger that goes
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 8: back to the early nineties, and one of the reasons
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 8: jumped into politics and public service was to right the
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 8: ship of a city that was going down the tubes.
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 8: And you talk to a young person about what it
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 8: was like in Times Square in nineteen ninety one, ninety
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 8: two and across the city, they have no clue. And
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 8: now you look at it, it's vibrant, it's alive. And
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 8: if you allow it to again corrosive policies to allow
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 8: criminals on the streets, they're just going to commit more
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 8: crimes and do a bunch of different things. And I
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 8: go back with you judge with guys like Peter Valone
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 8: who were sensible, common sense, decent human beings who just
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 8: wanted what's best for the city. As opposed to what
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 8: you're saying, are younger people primarily coming from across this
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 8: country and perhaps the world, who have never been punched
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 8: in the face by reality, and they just want this
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 8: utopia that's never going to exist. We can do what
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 8: we can. We're gonna be imperfect, but you gotta work
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 8: for it, you gotta strive for it, and you gotta
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 8: earn it.
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 4: We're talking to Vita.
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 3: We're talking to Vita Facila, the Borough President of Staten Island,
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 3: and mister Vasella, you come from a political family.
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 4: You know politics very very well, and I'd like to
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 4: ask you to dig a little bit deeper into what
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 4: you just said, because you're talking about some people who
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 4: may have been supposedly on the other side of the
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 4: aisle political opponents from time to time from the past
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 4: and also the recent past, who were still decent people
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 4: who still maybe we disagree with them on how they
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 4: wanted to make things better, but they did want to
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 4: make things better. I put it to you.
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 3: As someone who's been watching politics for a long time.
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 3: Do you have the same inclination that I have that
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 3: some of these people, including Mayor Mom Donnie, including Diaries
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 3: a Chevalier, are not actually looking for a better America
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 3: or a better city. They are funded through this Act
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 3: Blue and other sites by the enemies of this country.
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 4: I mean hate.
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 3: I'm not trying to put a conspiracy theory out here,
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 3: but I don't think these people are actually looking for.
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 4: A better New York or a better USA.
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 3: I think that they're funding and their support comes from
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 3: outside this country, people who mean us harm.
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 5: Sir, I agree.
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 8: I think there are a lot of people on the
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 8: other side who supported these canidates, who hate this country,
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 8: who hate capitalism, who hate the act of the country,
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 8: defending ourselves and defending our allies, who stand up for
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 8: those who want freedom in democracy. In the Middle East,
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 8: for example, there were those who want to destroy the
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 8: state of Israel, destroy it. Not just we don't like them,
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 8: they want to destroy them. And we have an obligation
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 8: to stand up for the people who love freedom, who
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 8: stand up for capitalism over communists, and to support our allies.
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 8: That's what good people, decent people do. And yes, I
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 8: served at the City Council with Judge Weinberg and many
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 8: others when he was there with Petere Blone. As I mentioned,
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 8: I served in Congress, and the one thing I would
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 8: say the twelve years I had the privilege of serving
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 8: the people standing out in Brooklyn. Some of my best
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 8: friends were Democrats. They were human beings. There were good people.
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 8: We disagreed philosophically on certain things, politically on certain things,
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 8: but we work together for the good of the order
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 8: and the common good to make this country better. And
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 8: now it's a war. Everything you see, it looks like
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 8: there's a war between people between You can't even associate
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 8: with a Democrat if you're Republican, vice versa. That is
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 8: long term disaster for the country. And what it allows
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 8: is a vacuum. And nature pours a vacuum. So what
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 8: do you get. You get the major cities around the
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 8: country are now run by socialists who want to think
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 8: and state clearly everything is free. That doesn't work in
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 8: the long term, as they mentioned at the very outset
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 8: and the short term, it's a problem, and it's a
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 8: big problem. And ultimately actions speak much more loudly than words.
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 8: And to John's point, one of the key aspects of
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 8: the platform with the Democrats socials of America is to
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 8: defund the Pentagon and the Armed services. And the most
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 8: important thing government can do is to protect the innocent
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 8: people of this country who just here we are on
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 8: in the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the United
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 8: States of America. It's the greatest in the history of
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 8: the world. And there's a good chunk of the Democratic
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 8: Party on the left who hated. I want to see
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 8: it destroyed. And I hope the good people of this city,
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 8: the state, in this country rise up and crush it,
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 8: crush it in its cradle, because what they really want
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 8: is destruction of the United States of America.
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 13: Veto.
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 18: There was a recent poll came out through CNN of
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 18: all places set as follows. In two thousand and two
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 18: thousand and one, eighty percent of the Democrats loved and
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 18: supported the country. Today is twenty nine percent. Amongst the Republicans,
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 18: ninety percent supported and loved this country in two thousand
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 18: and two thousand and one. Today it's ninety percent. So
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 18: what you had here is you have a falling off
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 18: of love of this country, of patriotism, of dedication to
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 18: the values of this country. And this is not coincidental.
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 18: This is funded a lot by foreign enemies. Is a
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 18: group called Justice Democrats. Justice Democrats, that's foreign money. It
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 18: infiltrates from the Middle East Islamis and what they're trying
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 18: to do is trying to create schism in this country
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 18: and they're being successful. We're more divided today than we've
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 18: ever been in my lifetime, VEO. And it's very frightening
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 18: for that future of that children and grandchildren.
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 8: I can't disagree, I can't disagree, judge. And part of
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 8: it is there's this. We saw it a few years
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 8: ago at the Ivy Leagues when Mi alma Mater, University
• 1:26:22
  Speaker 8: of Pennsylvania got caught up in it with just blatant
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 8: anti Semitism when they pretended to don't exist and the
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 8: other ivs and ultimately, fortunately they prevailed that these presidents
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 8: were asked to leave. But there was decades of indoctrination
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 8: of you were taught to hate the country. Right, so
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 8: you're graduating some of these Ivy League schools and all
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 8: you are taught in, let's say always, but a good
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 8: message that they were taught was hate the United States
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 8: of America.
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 5: Veto let me interrupt one second and then you'll go.
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 5: And we got taken thirty year break. The thing that's
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 5: coming up is, you know, let's go to Democrats under
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 5: Bill Clinton the country eighty percent of the Democrats loved America.
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 5: Bill Clinton loved America. This all happened post Obama. And
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 5: that is the.
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 4: Secret during Obama, during Obama.
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 5: And post Obama and Joe Biden. I don't blame him,
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 5: you know, I don't blame Joe bah I don't think
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 5: he knew he was here. And you know, people are
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 5: saying that was Obama's third term. I don't know who
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 5: was running the White House under Joe Biden somebody. I
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 5: think that we have to find out eventually who it was.
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 5: But people say it's Obama's third term. But but this
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 5: happened post Obama. And I remember what his wife said
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 5: about America, et cetera. And Fernando, what did you want
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 5: to say?
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 7: Listen, veto before we lose you? Because I know we're
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 7: going to lose you soon.
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 6: What can be done? And can it be done? Can
• 1:28:08
  Speaker 6: Staten Island have its own mayor, its own.
• 1:28:11
  Speaker 7: A citysion movement? You know, who changes it? The City
• 1:28:17
  Speaker 7: Charter Commission.
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 13: Legislat You know, I mean that.
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 6: No, listen, I may be dreaming, but the truth of
• 1:28:25
  Speaker 6: the matter is Staten Island is a different place.
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 9: You know.
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 7: It's it's a place that makes sense.
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 5: It's like it's like a suburban city.
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 3: Last words to use Staten Island bar presidents answer me
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 3: last word.
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 8: So the short answer is, uh, we can't do it
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 8: right now. Perhaps so if these things continue, that Staten
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 8: Island would succeed to become its own county or city.
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 8: But let me just say this, on the positive, I
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 8: don't want to make it all negative here. You know,
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 8: I spend a lot of times in schools just to
• 1:28:54
  Speaker 8: sweak along. We announced a new field and gymnasim building.
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 8: I spoke a graduation for a grammar school. The kids
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 8: are great. The families that attend, that send these kids
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 8: to school a great people. Eight ninety ninety percent are
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 8: so positive. They blest and they belt out the national anthem.
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 8: They sing God Bless America to the top of their lungs.
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 8: We just need to foster that and say this is
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 8: the future. And these other marginalized people go full of circle.
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 8: These wealthy perhaps kids from all over the country who
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 8: hate this country in such a way. We need to
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 8: grow these young people to say you are growing up
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 8: in the best country in the history of the world.
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 8: Crowd out these nut jobs and crush them so they
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 8: don't ruin and destroy this country. So we can be
• 1:29:47
  Speaker 8: here another two hundred and fifty years with.
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 3: The positive message. Thank you so much, Borah. President Vita Ficla.
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 3: You will not be seeing him at Olive Garden.
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 4: And we'll be right back right bat guests.
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 2: Sid and Friends in the morning on the Red Apple
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 2: Podcast Network.
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 3: Governor Patterson joining us now, Governor, I'm gonna I'm gonna
• 1:30:09
  Speaker 3: enlist you right now to be the referee and a
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 3: debate that Fernando and I are going to have.
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 4: Am I, you're on, You're on. Your Mike just turned on.
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 3: Uh so we just said noam Leyden came in and
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 3: gave us this latest news about how state, the state
• 1:30:23
  Speaker 3: of New Jersey, the legislature there's going to debate a
• 1:30:26
  Speaker 3: bill about whether to allow way Moo, the Google associated
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 3: Alphabet owned self driving car service.
• 1:30:32
  Speaker 5: And yeah, wait wait, Before the governor answers, I want
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 5: to know how big the contribution was to do the
• 1:30:38
  Speaker 5: Jersey politicians.
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 3: To get this bill introduced, what do you think Google
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 3: has some money? I heard seven figures, seven figures.
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 4: But so listen, folks, all.
• 1:30:47
  Speaker 5: New Jersey people, ask your local politicians how much are
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 5: they getting in lobbying fees or whatever from Google to
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 5: allow them to bring in a driverless car could drive around.
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 5: What happened in what was it?
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 13: Houston?
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, just ouside of Houston a few days ago.
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 3: A robotax you know, this is Elon Musk's company, but
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 3: another self driving cab company thing crashed into a private
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 3: home in Houston, killing a seventy six year old woman
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 3: inside the computer.
• 1:31:16
  Speaker 4: Well, this is under dispute.
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 3: Let's not get see what happened, the Tesla says, because
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 3: this is a company that oversees a Robotaxi. Tesla says, no,
• 1:31:25
  Speaker 3: in fact, this wasn't. This wasn't this was a Tesla.
• 1:31:27
  Speaker 3: This was a regular Tesla driven by a human person,
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 3: not who but he the driver says it was in
• 1:31:32
  Speaker 3: self driving mode and it went out of control. Tesla saying, well,
• 1:31:35
  Speaker 3: we found your foot pushing on the gas medal even
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 3: after it was into the house. So this is going
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 3: to be disputed. But the point being in general, and
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 3: I know this gets a lot of people upset. In general,
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 3: a lot of people are upset about self driving cars.
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 4: It bothers them.
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 3: But I am very much in favor of them because
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 3: of all the disabled people in America who are basically
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 3: chained to their homes, and self driving cars ads exponential
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 3: to their options for getting out and about. But for
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 3: Nana Miteo, who Jake deals with real cab drivers, is gonna.
• 1:32:05
  Speaker 6: Jake, what, Jake, We're taking this out to the street.
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 6: All right, we're gonna we're gonna do get out outside
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 6: on the street.
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 7: Well, listen, you're into the eighty year old women. We're
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 7: gonna do a fist to fish to get listen. Weimo
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 7: has no place in any major city when Waimo nor
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 7: any self drivers vehicle has space, I'll tell you why.
• 1:32:32
  Speaker 6: There are too many jobs at stake here, Too many people,
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 6: too many. There are two hundred thousand cab drivers in
• 1:32:39
  Speaker 6: New York City, for example. I know they'll never make
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 6: it to New York City. That I can you know,
• 1:32:45
  Speaker 6: I can bet my my last dollar They're never gonna come.
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 7: To New York City. What I recommend to any city
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 7: that is allowing weymos to go there and replace real
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 7: drivers is stand in front of the car. That car
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 7: will not move if you stand in front of it.
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 7: Put a garbage can in front of the car.
• 1:33:05
  Speaker 5: Okay, just do.
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 7: Something in front of the car.
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 3: We have Government Patterson who won that first round jump
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 3: in run that first round?
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 7: Who won?
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 21: I would have to think that, mister Mitail.
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 3: All right, Wait a minute, My rebuttal is what Fernando
• 1:33:23
  Speaker 3: and Governor Patterson. What if we create a way mo
• 1:33:25
  Speaker 3: car that has an automated middle finger that can be
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 3: extended just like a regular driver.
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 7: Well, listen, that's that's being very disrespectful to the right
• 1:33:33
  Speaker 7: in public. Besides, people that that have disabilities can't use
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 7: a an automated vehicle. Why because to get the in
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 7: and out of the vehicle is very difficult. If that
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 7: person has an emergency, a senior has an emergency in
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 7: one of those vehicles.
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 6: How is nine to one one gonna know about it?
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 6: You know these vehicles are not equipped.
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 7: Listen, send them to Staten Island. Veno will like the
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 7: protect that send them to the suburbs.
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 4: Live on Long Island. I'll take send them to.
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 6: The suburbs, but not the cities. That's all I'm saying governor.
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 3: I know that John wants to know more about like
• 1:34:12
  Speaker 3: to get a bill like this even before a legislature.
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 4: It's it's not an easy or cheap process.
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 16: Is it.
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 21: Uh. They're gonna have to go and meet with legislators
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 21: in their offices, They're gonna have to go and meet
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 21: with committee chairs, They're gonna have to drop by a
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 21: few fundraisers, and uh, it's.
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 13: A lot of work.
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 21: But theoretically, if they put enough in, I guess they could,
• 1:34:37
  Speaker 21: you know, get something out.
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 5: I personally, how much political contributions do you have to
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 5: give to make it happen in New Jersey?
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 7: Thank you, John? Thank you in New Jersey.
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 21: Well, I think anyone to watch there and I knows
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 21: how I feel about New Jersey.
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 4: Okay, well, well we'll figure out the Oh wait we house.
• 1:34:57
  Speaker 4: I have to have the judge.
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 3: The judge in on this because look, this also goes
• 1:35:03
  Speaker 3: for city council, and you would know about that.
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 6: In other words, you want someone to favor you, because
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 6: the governor already told you I won the first battle.
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 3: I think I think I'm gonna lose this battle in
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 3: this in this forum. I know I'm going to debate it,
• 1:35:14
  Speaker 3: but I'm not changing my mind, but I'm admitting.
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 4: That I lost this debate.
• 1:35:17
  Speaker 7: It isn't here to back you up. I know.
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 3: But but Judge, Judge Weinberg, this is also a city
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 3: council type thing. So how does this get before a
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 3: city council.
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 18: Create a pilot program to let it try it out,
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 18: and they say wonderful things. They say wonderful things about it,
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 18: They paid the report. Then I vote the legislation authorizing it.
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 18: All right, hold on, hold on yours. The thing I
• 1:35:43
  Speaker 18: always said to Laura's appearing before me was you should
• 1:35:46
  Speaker 18: quit wire ahead, or if you have nothing to say,
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 18: don't say it. So let me tell you my opinion.
• 1:35:55
  Speaker 18: I support Fernandau because I'm against these self driving cars.
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 18: I think they're dangerous.
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 8: Now.
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 18: I know you, Jake, think that it's safer than the
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 18: ordinary person driving, and we could debate that, but I
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 18: don't trust technology that much. That's number one. But number two.
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 18: On the break, my good friend Fernando said, oh it'll
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 18: it'll never get through. As my good friend, the governor knows,
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 18: never say never when it comes to what the legislative
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 18: process will do and how it's going to be influenced
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 18: by outside voices.
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 4: And money, but we know it.
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 3: This is another funny thing about Weimo that may change
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 3: minds here. I don't know if it's not, or at
• 1:36:32
  Speaker 3: least they'll give you a smile. The Weimo cars won't
• 1:36:37
  Speaker 3: run if the door, if the passenger door is open,
• 1:36:39
  Speaker 3: or any door is open. And what happens in San
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 3: Francisco where this is being used in other cities, is
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 3: that people get out there drunk or whatever. Then they
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 3: forget to close the door properly and the Weimo is
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 3: literally stuck. So Weaimo has created an app in San
• 1:36:51
  Speaker 3: Francisco and some of these other cities where if you're
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 3: just hanging around all night, you can have the app
• 1:36:55
  Speaker 3: ding you on your phone and say, hey, you're two
• 1:36:58
  Speaker 3: blocks away from a Weimo that needs door closed, and
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 3: if you close it you get twenty bucks. So the
• 1:37:02
  Speaker 3: key is hang out in the middle some city near
• 1:37:04
  Speaker 3: all the bars where people are gonna forget to close the.
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 4: Door, and you might make fifty, you know, sixty eighty
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 4: bucks forget.
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 6: Let me tell you listen, there's so many there's so
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 6: many things that can go wrong. You know, you have
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 6: God forbid a heart attack in you're in one of
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 6: these cars. You're gonna die in the car. Who's the
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 6: family gonna sue? They're gonna sue way more? Why because
• 1:37:24
  Speaker 6: weimo didn't call nine one one. You know, there's too
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 6: many things.
• 1:37:28
  Speaker 7: That can go wrong, that will go wrong with these vehicles.
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 6: And you know what, Google, you spent billions of dollars,
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 6: Tesla's billions of dollars trying to put humans out of business.
• 1:37:41
  Speaker 7: What are two hundred thousand cab drivers gonna do? And
• 1:37:44
  Speaker 7: you know what pisses me off. Uber's in the game too, right, Yeah,
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 7: so if Oubah's in the game, that means that these
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 7: drivers are supporting Uber.
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 6: That's gonna put them out of business. Right, So we
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 6: need to really dig deep. Jake, Jake, listen, quit while
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 6: you're ahead. Wait the judge, the judge you already said
• 1:38:05
  Speaker 6: what he gave me my reasons, and the governor definitely,
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 6: you know, gave me the round.
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 7: So you're you're out of luck.
• 1:38:12
  Speaker 4: All right, We're gonna it's gonna be there.
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 6: I need a rematch, John and John wants to know
• 1:38:17
  Speaker 6: how much are they spending?
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 7: How much are the politicians get putting in their pocket
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 7: to approve pilot programs because that's all it's gonna be.
• 1:38:25
  Speaker 4: It's gonna be that.
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 5: We went through that yesterday with Bonnie Brady on those windmills,
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 5: and the people in in New York are gonna pay
• 1:38:34
  Speaker 5: two to three hundred percent the amount of electricity and
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 5: paying from those windmills. And my question is if the
• 1:38:42
  Speaker 5: if the Norway Company made a billion dollars, how much
• 1:38:46
  Speaker 5: of a political contribution they made to Orbany.
• 1:38:49
  Speaker 7: It's paid, right, it's paid exactly, it's pay to with them.
• 1:38:54
  Speaker 5: Governor, you were in Aubany, how much of a political
• 1:38:57
  Speaker 5: contribution those windmills make.
• 1:39:01
  Speaker 21: They would be pretty significant at that level. In other words,
• 1:39:04
  Speaker 21: it wouldn't be an easy thing to do.
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 7: So you got you have to grease everyone's in the
• 1:39:09
  Speaker 7: Assembly and the Senate in order for it to get
• 1:39:11
  Speaker 7: to you. Governor.
• 1:39:11
  Speaker 21: I wouldn't say that it gets everyone in the Assembly
• 1:39:14
  Speaker 21: in the Senate because there are a lot of people
• 1:39:16
  Speaker 21: committee chairs. But the committee chair sure, and the leaders.
• 1:39:20
  Speaker 7: They don't go to jail, and they don't go to jail.
• 1:39:23
  Speaker 4: No, And we should also talk about going to jail.
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 13: Does anybody going to jail?
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 18: Yeah, some of the Albany people went to jail. Listen,
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 18: let's be clear, lobbying is protected under the First Amendment.
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 18: People are allowed to make campaign contributions. What they're not
• 1:39:38
  Speaker 18: allowed to do is to sell their votes for quid
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 18: pro quo. So let's not the fame people who make
• 1:39:44
  Speaker 18: political contributions in urging the passage to the feet of legislation.
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 18: But when they get paid off for a vote or
• 1:39:51
  Speaker 18: to stop a vote, then you're talking something different. Now
• 1:39:54
  Speaker 18: you're talking criminal quid pro quo bribery.
• 1:39:57
  Speaker 3: Well, Governor Patterson is also an expert on sports and
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 3: business of sports and things like that, and you know
• 1:40:02
  Speaker 3: the the transparency in professional sports is something that so you.
• 1:40:09
  Speaker 7: Give up with way more and moving on.
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 3: Now I'll say this because moving on, it's not giving
• 1:40:14
  Speaker 3: up because at the end of the day, I disagree.
• 1:40:16
  Speaker 3: I still think when I see some of the way
• 1:40:18
  Speaker 3: that people drive in this city, I still think that
• 1:40:20
  Speaker 3: the self driving cars with the right tweaks will be
• 1:40:23
  Speaker 3: safer than human drivers.
• 1:40:24
  Speaker 4: I really do believe.
• 1:40:24
  Speaker 6: So what's to knockout? I knocked you out in the
• 1:40:27
  Speaker 6: third round knowledge to sports.
• 1:40:29
  Speaker 3: But but but using a sports analogy here, you go
• 1:40:33
  Speaker 3: on any one of the sports news sites and you
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 3: click on a player. They will tell you exactly what
• 1:40:38
  Speaker 3: their contract is for that year, who paid them, what
• 1:40:40
  Speaker 3: their contract was before, where that ranks. I think we
• 1:40:44
  Speaker 3: need to have a website like that for every bill
• 1:40:46
  Speaker 3: that was passed in Albany and in any other state.
• 1:40:48
  Speaker 3: This is the bill, Here's what was donated on one side,
• 1:40:51
  Speaker 3: here was donated on the other. And I know there
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 3: are some websites that sort of do this, but not
• 1:40:55
  Speaker 3: as as as very clearly as they do in sports.
• 1:40:59
  Speaker 3: You know, it's what governor, I mean, a website that
• 1:41:01
  Speaker 3: would really track money, not just votes, and not just lobbies,
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 3: because lobbies is you know they can they can I
• 1:41:08
  Speaker 3: want to know from do it bill specific, not oh,
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 3: candidates specific.
• 1:41:13
  Speaker 21: What do you think I guess you could do that.
• 1:41:15
  Speaker 21: I mean, it would certainly inform the public a lot
• 1:41:18
  Speaker 21: more than it is now. It would also, I think,
• 1:41:23
  Speaker 21: make the individuals who are agreeing with this idea that
• 1:41:30
  Speaker 21: that's come up, It would make them work harder to
• 1:41:33
  Speaker 21: win approval right within the legislature itself.
• 1:41:35
  Speaker 4: All right, Bill O'Reilly is about to join us for
• 1:41:37
  Speaker 4: his usual Thursday visit Sit or no Sid.
• 1:41:39
  Speaker 2: We'll be right back SID and Friends in the morning

  Speaker 4: Look, yeah he wants to.
• 1:42:09
  Speaker 6: Yeah, we we we have we have earth wind and fire.
• 1:42:14
  Speaker 6: Now we have smoke and water in the house.
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 4: But no mirrors, no mirrors, no mirrors.
• 1:42:18
  Speaker 7: Uh.
• 1:42:18
  Speaker 3: Bill, I got to ask you though, I mean your
• 1:42:20
  Speaker 3: take on these You definitely addressed it in your program
• 1:42:24
  Speaker 3: last night on the not Spin News, But the take
• 1:42:26
  Speaker 3: on this communist overtaking of these Democrat primaries in New
• 1:42:31
  Speaker 3: York and what this means not only for New York
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 3: but for the whole country.
• 1:42:35
  Speaker 9: Okay, but first I had to tell you the reason
• 1:42:37
  Speaker 9: I'm here is because sid said, if I don't go
• 1:42:42
  Speaker 9: on with you guys, he's going to come to my house.
• 1:42:46
  Speaker 4: He's not that farker you can get there.
• 1:42:48
  Speaker 9: I can't have that, I you know, So here I
• 1:42:52
  Speaker 9: am anyway, Uh, you have to if you really want
• 1:42:57
  Speaker 9: to understand what's going on in New York City, and
• 1:43:00
  Speaker 9: it's going on in Los Angeles, Chicago, and San Francisco
• 1:43:03
  Speaker 9: as well, the big urban centers. You've got to understand
• 1:43:07
  Speaker 9: the educational system. That's where it all starts, in the
• 1:43:11
  Speaker 9: first second grade. So you've got a teachers' union that
• 1:43:15
  Speaker 9: dominates here that is wildly left wing, and the imposition
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 9: of a curriculum that says to the urchins, you know,
• 1:43:25
  Speaker 9: you live in a bad country. The United States is slavery.
• 1:43:31
  Speaker 9: It's terrible. It drop bombs on Japan. It's persecutes people,
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 9: you don't have rights, you can't vote, on and on.
• 1:43:44
  Speaker 9: And when children hear this constantly, all right, they form
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 9: attitudes about their country because they don't have any balance,
• 1:43:55
  Speaker 9: all right. The unions ran in principles, a system principles
• 1:44:01
  Speaker 9: who then hire teachers who are very left wing. That's
• 1:44:07
  Speaker 9: where it starts. And so that when these kids go
• 1:44:11
  Speaker 9: into high school and then get out of school and
• 1:44:14
  Speaker 9: look for jobs, many of them do not change their
• 1:44:17
  Speaker 9: opinion of the country. So you have, for ma'am, Donnie
• 1:44:23
  Speaker 9: a constituency there, Okay, So they like him, they believe
• 1:44:28
  Speaker 9: him They are talking about the rank and file, the
• 1:44:33
  Speaker 9: kids who went through the public school system, and they
• 1:44:37
  Speaker 9: think America is bad, so we have to have a
• 1:44:39
  Speaker 9: huge change. You add to that minority voters, many of
• 1:44:45
  Speaker 9: whom have a bitterness toward the system. We all know
• 1:44:51
  Speaker 9: that you have to be honest, and some of the
• 1:44:54
  Speaker 9: bitterness is warranted. You know, some minority people have been
• 1:45:00
  Speaker 9: treated terribly by our system. And you come bine that
• 1:45:09
  Speaker 9: kind of ethnic voting with the voting of people who
• 1:45:13
  Speaker 9: really don't know anything. They know one side of the story.
• 1:45:16
  Speaker 9: America is bad and that's why these guys get elected.
• 1:45:20
  Speaker 9: Now in a general election in New York State, that
• 1:45:24
  Speaker 9: wouldn't happen in my opinion. But here's the problem, Huko,
• 1:45:31
  Speaker 9: a standard Democrat could stop the madness, to the power
• 1:45:36
  Speaker 9: to stop it, she won't stop it because she wants
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 9: to be reelected and she wants all the money that
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 9: flows into the Democratic Party from these radical leftists George
• 1:45:51
  Speaker 9: saw As we know the game. Okay, Chinese are pumping
• 1:45:55
  Speaker 9: billions of dollars into the United States electoral systems to
• 1:46:01
  Speaker 9: try to change us from a capitalistic, free society to
• 1:46:05
  Speaker 9: a communist so solitarian society. Maybe one really vivid example
• 1:46:11
  Speaker 9: of how people are going to get hurt and fast.
• 1:46:15
  Speaker 9: So Man Donnie wants to collectivize housing in New York.
• 1:46:20
  Speaker 9: He wants to run it. He doesn't want a landlord,
• 1:46:25
  Speaker 9: he doesn't want private industry involved in housing. He wants
• 1:46:30
  Speaker 9: city hall to run it. What's going to happen, it's
• 1:46:35
  Speaker 9: already underway, is that the landlords who invested millions of
• 1:46:39
  Speaker 9: dollars into the tenements, into the other dwellings aren't going
• 1:46:44
  Speaker 9: to fix anything. They're not going to put more money
• 1:46:48
  Speaker 9: into New York City housing. So if you're living there
• 1:46:52
  Speaker 9: and you got a big problem with heating or rodents
• 1:46:56
  Speaker 9: or whatever it may be, and you call, no one
• 1:46:59
  Speaker 9: is going to help you. So therefore the slums as
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 9: they're called, are going to get worse, and I mean
• 1:47:07
  Speaker 9: a lot worse. Man Donnie wants that, he wants critical
• 1:47:14
  Speaker 9: mass to get the private landlords out of the business,
• 1:47:20
  Speaker 9: and he'll try to bankrupt them with the exercise tax,
• 1:47:26
  Speaker 9: with excise tax. I should say, with regulations, you can't
• 1:47:31
  Speaker 9: do this, you can't do that way. Where do you
• 1:47:33
  Speaker 9: see the regulations that are going to come on housing?
• 1:47:35
  Speaker 9: Where do you see in the meantime, the people who
• 1:47:40
  Speaker 9: vote for the communists because man Donnie is a communist.
• 1:47:43
  Speaker 9: He not a socialist. He would seize your property forcibly
• 1:47:49
  Speaker 9: if he could. That's communism. They're going to get hosed.
• 1:47:53
  Speaker 9: And it always comes down to that. You elect these
• 1:47:58
  Speaker 9: people throughout history. They come in, they have power, and you,
• 1:48:02
  Speaker 9: the voter, get it right between the odds, and that's
• 1:48:07
  Speaker 9: what's going to happen. It's already happened in La. You
• 1:48:09
  Speaker 9: can't even turn on street lights in La. Now, that's
• 1:48:13
  Speaker 9: how bad that place is.
• 1:48:15
  Speaker 4: Bill O'Reilly.
• 1:48:16
  Speaker 3: You mentioned housing, and we had this housing bill, this
• 1:48:19
  Speaker 3: bipartisan housing bill, and you know, we can be very
• 1:48:22
  Speaker 3: scrutinizing of it and whether it's really going to do much.
• 1:48:25
  Speaker 3: I do like the idea that at least it's marketed
• 1:48:28
  Speaker 3: as improving supply. Everything is supply and demand everything else
• 1:48:31
  Speaker 3: to smoke and mirrors. But President Trump abruptly canceling the
• 1:48:36
  Speaker 3: signing ceremony or saying he's not going to sign it
• 1:48:38
  Speaker 3: until he gets the same America Act pass and John
• 1:48:42
  Speaker 3: Casmeteitez and I think that's a good strategic move we
• 1:48:45
  Speaker 3: need if we don't have anything, if we don't have
• 1:48:47
  Speaker 3: vote integrity, in this country. But Judge Weinberg and former
• 1:48:50
  Speaker 3: Governor Pattison think no, he should have taken the w
• 1:48:52
  Speaker 3: on this so that in the midterms the Democrats can't
• 1:48:55
  Speaker 3: say this is to do nothing Congress and to do
• 1:48:57
  Speaker 3: nothing President.
• 1:48:57
  Speaker 4: Where do you stand on this?
• 1:48:59
  Speaker 9: Well, think that I would have taken the deal and
• 1:49:05
  Speaker 9: sign the legislation because that connects me more with the
• 1:49:10
  Speaker 9: voters and the Republican Party. But at the same time,
• 1:49:15
  Speaker 9: you don't have to throw the Save America Act down
• 1:49:18
  Speaker 9: the dream Now symbolically, every American should want the Constitution
• 1:49:24
  Speaker 9: up held, okay, and the Constitution says you have to
• 1:49:28
  Speaker 9: be an American citizen to cast a ballot. Now the
• 1:49:34
  Speaker 9: communists and the left are trying to get around that, saying, no,
• 1:49:38
  Speaker 9: we're going to have local elections and the Constitution doesn't
• 1:49:41
  Speaker 9: apply to that, which is a bunch of garbage, and
• 1:49:44
  Speaker 9: they'll lose all day long. Okay. But at this point
• 1:49:47
  Speaker 9: in history, what the Republican Party has to do is
• 1:49:51
  Speaker 9: become more accessible to the voters because the voters are
• 1:49:55
  Speaker 9: blaming the Republicans or a whole bunch of stuff like
• 1:49:59
  Speaker 9: the Ion War and on and on and on and on.
• 1:50:03
  Speaker 9: So I probably would have taken the housing thing, got
• 1:50:08
  Speaker 9: it into motion. But then go back and here's my
• 1:50:13
  Speaker 9: question about the Voter Integrity Act. Who's opposed to that,
• 1:50:19
  Speaker 9: who's opposed who's opposed upholding the Constitution and not having
• 1:50:24
  Speaker 9: foreign nationals vote. I'll tell you the radical Democrats in
• 1:50:31
  Speaker 9: New York City, the three congress people, and you can't
• 1:50:36
  Speaker 9: get more radical than them, you can't. They're communists, all right.
• 1:50:40
  Speaker 9: They won. They won the election because, in my opinion,
• 1:50:47
  Speaker 9: because forty eight percent of working people in New York
• 1:50:53
  Speaker 9: City were born overseas, forty eight percent.
• 1:50:57
  Speaker 5: And that's increased actually in the last five years since
• 1:51:02
  Speaker 5: President Biden.
• 1:51:03
  Speaker 18: That's allowed them and that's how Mondamin won the election
• 1:51:06
  Speaker 18: last year.
• 1:51:07
  Speaker 5: In since May and Adams. We gave We gave these
• 1:51:11
  Speaker 5: people rewards to come in. We gave them four hundred
• 1:51:14
  Speaker 5: dollars a day, hotel rooms, we gave free cell phones,
• 1:51:18
  Speaker 5: we gave them, we gave free food, and some of
• 1:51:22
  Speaker 5: them didn't even like the food.
• 1:51:23
  Speaker 7: We do what we do best in America, give, give, give,
• 1:51:27
  Speaker 7: in give bill. This is Fernando Mateo.
• 1:51:30
  Speaker 9: Beyond that because of the eight percent, and I'm generalizing
• 1:51:34
  Speaker 9: now because there are some migrants who know the country
• 1:51:37
  Speaker 9: better than I do and my experiences I run three corporations.
• 1:51:43
  Speaker 9: Migrants are very hard working people. That being set, I
• 1:51:49
  Speaker 9: would say the majority of people who Biden led in
• 1:51:52
  Speaker 9: in the open border catastrophe that were then nurtured by
• 1:51:57
  Speaker 9: the city and state of New York have no attachment,
• 1:52:02
  Speaker 9: no attachment to American tradition none.
• 1:52:09
  Speaker 7: Bill, this is I'm going.
• 1:52:10
  Speaker 9: To vote for the person, the politician who promises to
• 1:52:15
  Speaker 9: give them the most stuff. That's what's happening.
• 1:52:25
  Speaker 7: Bill.
• 1:52:25
  Speaker 6: This is Fernando Matteo. It's an honor to have you
• 1:52:29
  Speaker 6: on the other side here on sid show. Bill, I
• 1:52:33
  Speaker 6: have a question for you, how do you believe we
• 1:52:37
  Speaker 6: can turn this around? We know that people that are
• 1:52:42
  Speaker 6: forty to fifty, sixty seventy years old have stopped coming
• 1:52:46
  Speaker 6: out to vote. The people that were elected that Mandami
• 1:52:50
  Speaker 6: supported all were from minoriti communities, and only ten percent
• 1:52:55
  Speaker 6: of the people came out to vote, most of them
• 1:52:58
  Speaker 6: being white and crazy.
• 1:53:01
  Speaker 7: How do we how do we figure this out?
• 1:53:03
  Speaker 8: Bill?
• 1:53:04
  Speaker 7: How do we think a lot.
• 1:53:05
  Speaker 9: Of white and crazy people? Number one? So we've got
• 1:53:09
  Speaker 9: it's a complicated matter. The way. I have a new
• 1:53:14
  Speaker 9: book coming out in September call confronting America. What has
• 1:53:18
  Speaker 9: to change? And here's how you can change it. The
• 1:53:24
  Speaker 9: Department of Education of federal agency imposes regents, and we
• 1:53:31
  Speaker 9: have them here in New York about history. On every
• 1:53:35
  Speaker 9: high school senior, you have to take the exam, and
• 1:53:40
  Speaker 9: the exam centers on traditional America. What was the Civil War?
• 1:53:46
  Speaker 9: How did the Revolutionary War end? Those kinds of things. Therefore,
• 1:53:51
  Speaker 9: the teachers and the principles who are now undermining the
• 1:53:55
  Speaker 9: system and not teaching factual information would be forced to
• 1:54:01
  Speaker 9: teach fractual information unless they wanted to be embarrassed and
• 1:54:06
  Speaker 9: have the test scores be terrible, and then they face
• 1:54:09
  Speaker 9: local scrutiny, and they can also face federal scrutiny. You
• 1:54:14
  Speaker 9: can go in and you can say the school is
• 1:54:17
  Speaker 9: not operating the way it should because it's getting public money.
• 1:54:23
  Speaker 9: It asked to start there. That's where you have to
• 1:54:26
  Speaker 9: change it in these schools because you're not going to
• 1:54:31
  Speaker 9: be able to do it on television or party politics
• 1:54:34
  Speaker 9: or anything like that. You're not going to be able
• 1:54:36
  Speaker 9: to do it, but you have to raise the level
• 1:54:39
  Speaker 9: of awareness. Who are we? How did America become the
• 1:54:43
  Speaker 9: most powerful nation on earth? What is our system, because
• 1:54:48
  Speaker 9: these are questions that kids in high school cannot answer,
• 1:54:55
  Speaker 9: and it has to be imposed.
• 1:55:01
  Speaker 3: By the way the book again, for those of you
• 1:55:03
  Speaker 3: who heard it, it didn't want to and didn't get
• 1:55:05
  Speaker 3: the whole title Confronting America. It has to change. Going
• 1:55:08
  Speaker 3: to be available in September, Sember September fifteenth.
• 1:55:13
  Speaker 9: They're going to chase me out of the country. You
• 1:55:14
  Speaker 9: know that. So I only have a few more weeks.
• 1:55:17
  Speaker 9: And because I really really go into here is.
• 1:55:22
  Speaker 5: Why don't we give it out? I'll buy you a
• 1:55:25
  Speaker 5: zillion copies, So give it out at the Galla WABC
• 1:55:28
  Speaker 5: Galla we're having on September eleventh.
• 1:55:31
  Speaker 9: I like the word jillion. I like that word. We'll
• 1:55:37
  Speaker 9: work it out. John, Thank you. You've always been very
• 1:55:40

  Speaker 3: Expressway at the inbound at six pm, which is a
• 1:57:42
  Speaker 3: parking excuses, we should just say no excuses. But speaking
• 1:57:46
  Speaker 3: of help from our friends, we've got an oil business
• 1:57:48
  Speaker 3: guy expert here in John Catsmeatiti's. We're looking at oil
• 1:57:52
  Speaker 3: US light sweet crude. It's hard to say wt I
• 1:57:55
  Speaker 3: West Texas Intermedia trading at the sixty nine dollars barrel level,
• 1:57:58
  Speaker 3: so close to your sixty five dollar barrel level prediction.
• 1:58:01
  Speaker 3: But and we're also seeing the national average of a
• 1:58:04
  Speaker 3: gasoline down to three dollars and ninety one cents, So
• 1:58:07
  Speaker 3: we are now down just we're now just eighty three
• 1:58:10
  Speaker 3: cents more. It's eighty three cents more than what it
• 1:58:12
  Speaker 3: was or something like that, close to that where we
• 1:58:15
  Speaker 3: were on the day that the war started. But John,
• 1:58:18
  Speaker 3: I have to say, usually oil comes down fast because
• 1:58:21
  Speaker 3: it's more speculative market, and then the gasoline prices come
• 1:58:24
  Speaker 3: down a lot slower. Actually, in my opinion, gasoline prices
• 1:58:27
  Speaker 3: have been coming down pretty fastna.
• 1:58:29
  Speaker 5: I mean, you know, I was on Maria Barterromo show.
• 1:58:32
  Speaker 5: We talked about oil about a week ago, ten days ago,
• 1:58:35
  Speaker 5: and in fact, is I predicted fifty five to sixty
• 1:58:40
  Speaker 5: five dollars oil sixty five? Well, sixty nine right now. So,
• 1:58:44
  Speaker 5: I mean, you know, I've been more right than wrong
• 1:58:49
  Speaker 5: all along for the last two three years. And it's
• 1:58:54
  Speaker 5: gonna go down in the price of gasoline. If things
• 1:58:59
  Speaker 5: keep going with I ran the way they're going, I
• 1:59:02
  Speaker 5: think you're gonna have gasoline under three dollars a gallon.
• 1:59:07
  Speaker 3: Right, I mean, we're only ninety one sounds in counting,
• 1:59:09
  Speaker 3: and it has come down already. Set we were at
• 1:59:11
  Speaker 3: three fifties, we were at four fifty six. I think
• 1:59:15
  Speaker 3: that was the high during the war periods. So we're
• 1:59:16
  Speaker 3: already down sixty five cents from like a month ago.
• 1:59:19
  Speaker 6: Well, Jake, what happens is if you buy oil at
• 1:59:22
  Speaker 6: a high price and you have it an inventory, you
• 1:59:26
  Speaker 6: can't just lower the price because the barrel, you know,
• 1:59:30
  Speaker 6: went down.
• 1:59:30
  Speaker 7: You've gotta wait until you gotta wait until.
• 1:59:33
  Speaker 5: You delete that. I know it doesn't happen. It just
• 1:59:37
  Speaker 5: goes down because it is what it is. In the
• 1:59:40
  Speaker 5: same way on the other side of the other side
• 1:59:42
  Speaker 5: of midnight when when oil goes up, the gas station's raising, right,
• 1:59:49
  Speaker 5: you know, so it's you know, but the end of
• 1:59:52
  Speaker 5: the year, it's the average, the averages. It comes back
• 1:59:54
  Speaker 5: of the average. By the way, last night, me and
• 1:59:56
  Speaker 5: the judge we had on a very very uh A
• 2:00:02
  Speaker 5: congresswoman from Miami. That's really hot stuff. He is really powerful.
• 2:00:08
  Speaker 6: Guess guess you blew my cover out as soon as
• 2:00:13
  Speaker 6: you said beautiful late congresswoman from Florida, and.
• 2:00:19
  Speaker 13: I met tape from last night.
• 2:00:22
  Speaker 5: Yet let's listen to hearing.
• 2:00:24
  Speaker 10: Joining us now is Congresswoman Maria Salas Are from the
• 2:00:28
  Speaker 10: great state of Florida, and sadly, Congresswoman, I think you're
• 2:00:32
  Speaker 10: gonna have a lot more Florida residents after last night's
• 2:00:35
  Speaker 10: election here in New York with the socialists.
• 2:00:37
  Speaker 22: I'm shorter and wonderful is to be with you, Rita,
• 2:00:41
  Speaker 22: And it's very worrisome what's happening here.
• 2:00:44
  Speaker 11: The words socialism, if.
• 2:00:46
  Speaker 22: It attracts one vote, it's a it's a very major
• 2:00:50
  Speaker 22: danger for the future of the republic. So in Florida,
• 2:00:54
  Speaker 22: you know, I represent the Cuban exile community.
• 2:00:56
  Speaker 17: The word socialism is scary.
• 2:01:00
  Speaker 11: Yeah, it definitely is explain to people.
• 2:01:03
  Speaker 22: You know.
• 2:01:03
  Speaker 10: You see these young people and I see a lot
• 2:01:05
  Speaker 10: of them in New York walking around with like Jay
• 2:01:08
  Speaker 10: Gavara shirts on and thinking, Oh, it's so cool.
• 2:01:11
  Speaker 11: If they only knew what real socialism was.
• 2:01:14
  Speaker 22: The problem that is the problem that perception is reality.
• 2:01:18
  Speaker 22: According to them, Schegevara was this hero that he wanted
• 2:01:22
  Speaker 22: to help the poor people and he wanted to liberate
• 2:01:24
  Speaker 22: the Cubans from oppression. And reality, he was just a
• 2:01:29
  Speaker 22: murderer who destroyed the islands along with Fidel Castro. The
• 2:01:33
  Speaker 22: problem we have in this country is the abundance and
• 2:01:37
  Speaker 22: the lack of points of reference. Everyone who votes for
• 2:01:41
  Speaker 22: socialism believes that they're having, that they are embracing a
• 2:01:44
  Speaker 22: very noble cause. What they're doing is that they're voting
• 2:01:48
  Speaker 22: to have free stuff. They have not understood that there
• 2:01:52
  Speaker 22: is no free lunch. Sure, if you are down and
• 2:01:56
  Speaker 22: you need the state or you need the city to
• 2:01:58
  Speaker 22: help you for a little while. That's why the government
• 2:02:01
  Speaker 22: is there, but just to give you a hand, lend
• 2:02:03
  Speaker 22: you a hand, not for you to live off this forever.
• 2:02:07
  Speaker 22: And that is the problem. We're such an abundant country
• 2:02:10
  Speaker 22: that those people who have not understood that socialism is
• 2:02:14
  Speaker 22: what it is, then they believe that. Oh my god,
• 2:02:16
  Speaker 22: I feel so bad because they have and we don't
• 2:02:20
  Speaker 22: or we haven't, they don't it, and it's just it's
• 2:02:25
  Speaker 22: just fantastic theory and it's a miserable practice. And that's
• 2:02:31
  Speaker 22: what's coming to New York City unfortunately, and of the
• 2:02:33
  Speaker 22: United States Congress, because I'm going to be serving, hopefully
• 2:02:37
  Speaker 22: with many of those people who just won the primary.
• 2:02:40
  Speaker 22: And look, I just want to mention to those who
• 2:02:43
  Speaker 22: are listening who live in New York, my very good
• 2:02:46
  Speaker 22: friend ADRIANO. Spayat, he was the epitome of the Democrat.
• 2:02:53
  Speaker 22: He is black, he's Dominican, and he's a Democrat, but
• 2:02:56
  Speaker 22: he's a moderate and he was voting what was good.
• 2:03:00
  Speaker 12: For the country.
• 2:03:01
  Speaker 22: And look he was taken out.
• 2:03:03
  Speaker 13: Well, we're going to read you read that one more time.
• 2:03:06
  Speaker 5: His opponent that beat him just made a statement a
• 2:03:09
  Speaker 5: couple of minutes ago.
• 2:03:10
  Speaker 10: Yeah, and this is frightening Congresswoman Salazar, she said, this
• 2:03:15
  Speaker 10: is Chevalier. She said, you know essentially that the mission
• 2:03:18
  Speaker 10: is to get rid of Western civilization. I mean, you know,
• 2:03:23
  Speaker 10: a total eradication of Western civilization.
• 2:03:26
  Speaker 22: I mean this is nts Western values. But what values
• 2:03:31
  Speaker 22: are we going to be embracing? The Russian ones, what
• 2:03:34
  Speaker 22: the Iranian, the Ayatolas? What type of values Western hemisphere?
• 2:03:40
  Speaker 22: The Western civilization has the one who has brought taken
• 2:03:44
  Speaker 22: people out of poverty, has brought progress, free market economy
• 2:03:48
  Speaker 22: has brought the freedom be able to be able to
• 2:03:51
  Speaker 22: live and eat three times a day and be able
• 2:03:54
  Speaker 22: to travel and raise your kids. Well, I don't understand
• 2:03:58
  Speaker 22: what these people are doing, but it's just what I
• 2:04:00
  Speaker 22: told you. This is nineteen sixty Cuba thinking that thedel
• 2:04:03
  Speaker 22: Castro was going to liberate them and he was going to.
• 2:04:06
  Speaker 17: Be the redeemer. And there are no redeemers.
• 2:04:09
  Speaker 8: You've got to work for it.
• 2:04:10
  Speaker 22: And then of course we need to have equality of opportunity,
• 2:04:14
  Speaker 22: but not a result. And unfortunately the socialists they are
• 2:04:17
  Speaker 22: promising equality of results, and that's the problem.
• 2:04:22
  Speaker 5: Maria Salaza, we miss you because we don't talk to
• 2:04:24
  Speaker 5: you enough. But thank you for thank you for everything
• 2:04:28
  Speaker 5: you do and say, and God bless God, bless you,
• 2:04:31
  Speaker 5: and God.
• 2:04:31
  Speaker 22: Bless of course, and thank you for the opportunity. And
• 2:04:34
  Speaker 22: it happened in New York, it did not happen in Florida.
• 2:04:36
  Speaker 22: But that doesn't mean that it's not affecting the Republic,
• 2:04:39
  Speaker 22: where we all live and where I'm going to be
• 2:04:41
  Speaker 22: raising my grandchildren and Dad. Will affect everybody. And it's
• 2:04:46
  Speaker 22: just the fact that you leave, that people are leaving
• 2:04:48
  Speaker 22: New York City and coming to Miami doesn't mean that
• 2:04:50
  Speaker 22: it's good for.
• 2:04:51
  Speaker 8: The United States.
• 2:04:52
  Speaker 22: Thank you you, and thank you for that.
• 2:04:54
  Speaker 10: Thank you, Maria.
• 2:04:55
  Speaker 20: We love you.
• 2:04:55
  Speaker 7: We'll talk to you soon.
• 2:04:56
  Speaker 13: Thank you, Maria Salazar. She's one tough lady.
• 2:05:02
  Speaker 7: Not only is she tough, she's a very elegant, beautiful
• 2:05:06
  Speaker 7: lady that has common sense.
• 2:05:08
  Speaker 4: Is she over eighty?
• 2:05:09
  Speaker 5: Uh no, We'll try to set you up, Jake, Jake,
• 2:05:15
  Speaker 5: I don't think you stand the chance.
• 2:05:17
  Speaker 7: Okay, all right, you already lost three battles with me, don't.
• 2:05:22
  Speaker 3: But all kidding aside, it's good to hear. I'm sorry,
• 2:05:24
  Speaker 3: you know, it's good to hear. We have some members
• 2:05:25
  Speaker 3: of Congress who are on the younger side, who are
• 2:05:27
  Speaker 3: not crazy who are common sense.
• 2:05:30
  Speaker 18: She understands the Cuban experience. Yeah, that's why he understands
• 2:05:33
  Speaker 18: what socialism, communism means, really means. Promise everything, to have
• 2:05:38
  Speaker 18: a dictatorship, kill your enemies, exploit everybody else, and the
• 2:05:42
  Speaker 18: guys at the top live well and everyone else lose.
• 2:05:44
  Speaker 21: The misery point about Fido Castro was right on target.
• 2:05:48
  Speaker 21: The young people who think that they are, you know,
• 2:05:52
  Speaker 21: expropriating Chake Rovara and Fido Castro. But that didn't end well.
• 2:05:56
  Speaker 21: And Jake Grovar was really not a liberator at all.
• 2:06:00
  Speaker 13: He was a you know, and Cuba.
• 2:06:02
  Speaker 18: Cuba decided under the lishop of Castro, to get rid
• 2:06:05
  Speaker 18: of Gavera, so they sent him into Bolivia. He wanted
• 2:06:08
  Speaker 18: where he was carried, to send him out deliberately, you know,
• 2:06:10
  Speaker 18: if the permanent revolution nonsense, the trusity vision, and the
• 2:06:13
  Speaker 18: reason they did that. He didn't want to have a
• 2:06:15
  Speaker 18: rival for the control of Cuba. And I saw that
• 2:06:18
  Speaker 18: Gavera was very charismatic and it would be a threat
• 2:06:20
  Speaker 18: to Castro's leadership. So they they were allies, allies, allies.
• 2:06:24
  Speaker 18: Then Castro talked to very about until they were not.
• 2:06:27
  Speaker 18: It was no long convenient and so off Govera, Bolivia,
• 2:06:30
  Speaker 18: and then he died.
• 2:06:31
  Speaker 5: I tell you, every time I talked to her, I
• 2:06:34
  Speaker 5: enjoyed talking to her. She's one tough lady. And uh,
• 2:06:37
  Speaker 5: you know, she was on the in Venezuela. She was
• 2:06:40
  Speaker 5: on the side of the other person that was elected
• 2:06:45
  Speaker 5: president of Venezuela, and Trump didn't go that direction.
• 2:06:48
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he's faded.
• 2:06:50
  Speaker 6: Actually he hasn't been heard of or you know, he's
• 2:06:54
  Speaker 6: not involved. I don't think he's not involved anymore.
• 2:06:58
  Speaker 7: Actually, one won the presidency was a woman.
• 2:07:02
  Speaker 4: We have to take a break, man, he was a woman.
• 2:07:06
  Speaker 13: Both of them disappeared from sins.
• 2:07:07
  Speaker 3: We have to take a break here on SID in
• 2:07:08
  Speaker 3: President Morning. But we'll talk about the Venezuela situation again
• 2:07:11
  Speaker 3: when we come back.
• 2:07:13
  Speaker 2: SID and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
• 2:07:16
  Speaker 2: Podcast network.
• 2:07:18
  Speaker 3: I lost the debate with Fernando and I and I
• 2:07:21
  Speaker 3: preemptively listen.
• 2:07:23
  Speaker 6: Well, coming to the end of the of the takeover,
• 2:07:26
  Speaker 6: and you are going out really losing.
• 2:07:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Jay, I will.
• 2:07:29
  Speaker 3: Say this though, our thoughts are with her because she
• 2:07:31
  Speaker 3: is going through this. I know for sure, sorry about that.
• 2:07:33
  Speaker 3: She is going through some serious health problems. Born in
• 2:07:37
  Speaker 3: nineteen forty six, her birthday's coming up July fifteenth, so
• 2:07:39
  Speaker 3: she will be eighty, She'll be eighty.
• 2:07:42
  Speaker 7: Can we get him on WABC?
• 2:07:44
  Speaker 3: Can you get I don't know, because again she is
• 2:07:47
  Speaker 3: going through some serious health problems. But as I was
• 2:07:49
  Speaker 3: saying before, I was properly corrected, correctly corrected. She came
• 2:07:54
  Speaker 3: through with a voice driven act at a time when
• 2:07:56
  Speaker 3: disco was rising and the voice you know, singing prowess
• 2:07:59
  Speaker 3: was not as valuable, and she really made something out
• 2:08:02
  Speaker 3: of it.
• 2:08:03
  Speaker 4: So I give her all credit. I apologize for last night.
• 2:08:06
  Speaker 5: We had Norm Coleman on first cousin, First cousin, you
• 2:08:12
  Speaker 5: have Norm, mind put them on. We have Senator Norm
• 2:08:16
  Speaker 5: Coleman from the great state of Minnesota, and Norm of
• 2:08:21
  Speaker 5: tell us. So, I mean, what's what a miss we're in.
• 2:08:25
  Speaker 17: I have to tell you you're actually have made Minnesota
• 2:08:28
  Speaker 17: look good. I mean, the difference between this is that
• 2:08:33
  Speaker 17: Minnesota has like Tim Wilson. You know, wals is just stupid. Okay,
• 2:08:37
  Speaker 17: but but but now you've got in in New York City,
• 2:08:40
  Speaker 17: what you've got is dangerous. I mean, you know you
• 2:08:43
  Speaker 17: got I'm.
• 2:08:43
  Speaker 5: Gonna tell you, no, no, I'm senator, I'm gonna tell
• 2:08:46
  Speaker 5: you how dangerous rita. Oh yeah, read the statement just
• 2:08:49
  Speaker 5: made of the person that that that beat uh the Spanish.
• 2:08:57
  Speaker 13: What was he doing?
• 2:08:58
  Speaker 11: He was head of the Hispanic caucus.
• 2:08:59
  Speaker 17: In time Mancocus.
• 2:09:02
  Speaker 10: Here's the line, all right, this is from Daria Lisa
• 2:09:05
  Speaker 10: Avila Cheval. Yeah, she's obviously democratic socialist, She's one who
• 2:09:09
  Speaker 10: beat ESPAA. She says, uh that we need a total
• 2:09:13
  Speaker 10: eradication of Western civilization.
• 2:09:17
  Speaker 5: You can't make it.
• 2:09:18
  Speaker 17: Up, you know, you know this is you know, communism.
• 2:09:21
  Speaker 17: We don't like to use it for these are communists,
• 2:09:23
  Speaker 17: but but they don't. You can't, you can't sell that phrase.
• 2:09:25
  Speaker 17: So you say democrats socialists, Uh, you know, the mayor
• 2:09:28
  Speaker 17: of Mendomia last night quoted there's Antonio Grimes, an Italian communist,
• 2:09:33
  Speaker 17: you know who.
• 2:09:34
  Speaker 9: You know.
• 2:09:35
  Speaker 17: Their belief is is that you've got to kind of
• 2:09:37
  Speaker 17: destroy that the undertennings of civilization, family, organized religion. That's
• 2:09:42
  Speaker 17: where they're at. That's what that's what New York has
• 2:09:45
  Speaker 17: voted for. So as they said Minnesota, you know right
• 2:09:48
  Speaker 17: well that we were the fall after they were almost
• 2:09:50
  Speaker 17: centrist compared to what you have now. And how you know,
• 2:09:54
  Speaker 17: I'll give you three big losers left I one, of course,
• 2:09:56
  Speaker 17: Israel is the loser. Uh in terms of You've got
• 2:10:00
  Speaker 17: folks who are clear three anti Semits just are going
• 2:10:02
  Speaker 17: to get elected to Congress, and they're gonna have loud voices.
• 2:10:05
  Speaker 17: And so Israel I just came from the public Jewish Coalition,
• 2:10:09
  Speaker 17: had our kind of our meeting in Washington this week.
• 2:10:12
  Speaker 17: He just got done with it today. And I can
• 2:10:15
  Speaker 17: tell you I say it and I want Israel to
• 2:10:17
  Speaker 17: be a bipartisan issue. But all you have the Democratic
• 2:10:20
  Speaker 17: Party is John Fetterman's punting Israel.
• 2:10:22
  Speaker 21: Now.
• 2:10:22
  Speaker 17: Even Chuck Schumer, by the way, he's the second biggest
• 2:10:25
  Speaker 17: loser last night, and is Schuma because his fate is written.
• 2:10:30
  Speaker 17: I mean, the old guard is gone, the old God
• 2:10:33
  Speaker 17: is dead. It's simply a matter of time. So, you know,
• 2:10:35
  Speaker 17: Chuck has had a nice career. He made you know,
• 2:10:38
  Speaker 17: we went to one ninety seven together, went to Madison together.
• 2:10:41
  Speaker 17: You know, he had his moments of glory. But they're over.
• 2:10:43
  Speaker 17: So Chuck Schumer's political career is over. And of course
• 2:10:46
  Speaker 17: I think the third losers of the people of the
• 2:10:47
  Speaker 17: City of New York. I mean, ultimately you lost the
• 2:10:51
  Speaker 17: head of Hispanic Caucus. You lost you know, the person
• 2:10:54
  Speaker 17: who had led the Trumpet impeachment. You lost folks with
• 2:10:57
  Speaker 17: seniority who at least could kind of bring some resource
• 2:11:00
  Speaker 17: is back to the people they represent. And what do
• 2:11:02
  Speaker 17: you got is you've got you got three communists, three
• 2:11:05
  Speaker 17: anti Semis who nothing constructive, nothing, nothing that. They don't
• 2:11:09
  Speaker 17: want to build anything. They're just gonna simply take it.
• 2:11:11
  Speaker 17: At a certain point in time, you run out of
• 2:11:13
  Speaker 17: other people's money.
• 2:11:15
  Speaker 10: Yeah, and you know what, you know, it's traveling norm
• 2:11:17
  Speaker 10: is that in the middle of all this, all the rhetoric,
• 2:11:20
  Speaker 10: like you said it was anti Israel, but it was
• 2:11:22
  Speaker 10: it was They've even talked about open borders. They've talked
• 2:11:25
  Speaker 10: about deporting no one even murders.
• 2:11:29
  Speaker 17: Right, should murderers being held in prison?
• 2:11:31
  Speaker 13: Right?
• 2:11:31
  Speaker 20: No?
• 2:11:32
  Speaker 11: No, they don't want prison A couple of them, right?
• 2:11:34
  Speaker 15: So right?
• 2:11:35
  Speaker 11: Are they going to go to their house?
• 2:11:36
  Speaker 4: I mean, what this is?
• 2:11:38
  Speaker 11: It really is it's almost like mad Max. I feel like, yeah, but.
• 2:11:41
  Speaker 17: But it's reality. It's you know, I've said this in
• 2:11:44
  Speaker 17: this show before. I love quoting Ed Koch. You know,
• 2:11:47
  Speaker 17: when he lost his election, the people have spoken, they
• 2:11:50
  Speaker 17: deserve to be punished. I really don't think though New
• 2:11:53
  Speaker 17: Yorkers deserve to be punished. And I don't know if
• 2:11:55
  Speaker 17: this I don't think there's an awakening Mandami who who
• 2:11:59
  Speaker 17: you know, everyone said, well, you know he's going to
• 2:12:01
  Speaker 17: be hurting the Democrat Party. If anything, this is what
• 2:12:04
  Speaker 17: the energy in the Democrat Party today is an energy
• 2:12:08
  Speaker 17: that is anti Semitic, anti Israel, anti capitalism, anti growth,
• 2:12:13
  Speaker 17: anti American culture. I mean, one of them, you know,
• 2:12:16
  Speaker 17: they talked about your wifes are dirty hands on an
• 2:12:18
  Speaker 17: American flag, and they don't even they don't love the country.
• 2:12:22
  Speaker 17: And so this is what you got now as the
• 2:12:24
  Speaker 17: folks who are going to be representing that, you know,
• 2:12:26
  Speaker 17: the people the city of New York and Brooklyn and Queens.
• 2:12:29
  Speaker 17: I think it's very sad stated as I said, I
• 2:12:31
  Speaker 17: thought Minnesota had kind of very way to the left,
• 2:12:33
  Speaker 17: But now I have to kind of readdress my calibrations
• 2:12:36
  Speaker 17: because we're not We're off the playing field right now
• 2:12:39
  Speaker 17: in terms of what the how far left this is?
• 2:12:41
  Speaker 5: Governor Protect any response to normal Coleman, who's from Minnesota,
• 2:12:45
  Speaker 5: but he's really.
• 2:12:46
  Speaker 13: A Brooklyn guy, He's really from New York.
• 2:12:48
  Speaker 19: I know, Senator, nice talking to you again, and I
• 2:12:51
  Speaker 19: just think you, I just think you hit it right
• 2:12:53
  Speaker 19: on the head. It's a disaster. Anytime you can make
• 2:12:57
  Speaker 19: Minnesota look at you know you're doing something horribly wrong.
• 2:13:00
  Speaker 19: My one correction, will you where you were saying how
• 2:13:03
  Speaker 19: New York is going to suffer. The problem is a
• 2:13:06
  Speaker 19: lot of these people are going down to Washington and
• 2:13:09
  Speaker 19: because of that, I fear our country is going to suffer,
• 2:13:12
  Speaker 19: and we just have to stick.
• 2:13:14
  Speaker 13: To our guns.
• 2:13:15
  Speaker 19: Get decent candidates and tell good Democrats that they need
• 2:13:20
  Speaker 19: to look at the Republican candidate because their party is
• 2:13:22
  Speaker 19: run is nominating lunatics.
• 2:13:25
  Speaker 17: And the days of the Steenny Hoyers and the folks
• 2:13:27
  Speaker 17: so I could disagree with, but I could have a
• 2:13:29
  Speaker 17: rational discussion with those days are over.
• 2:13:32
  Speaker 16: You know.
• 2:13:32
  Speaker 17: John Kennedy, the senateor Kennedy from Louisiana said, you know,
• 2:13:35
  Speaker 17: there's a reason for everything. Sometimes the reason is that
• 2:13:37
  Speaker 17: you're stupid and you make bad decisions. The people yesterday,
• 2:13:43
  Speaker 17: some bad decisions were made in the Democrat primaries, and
• 2:13:45
  Speaker 17: your right governor, that's going to have repercussions, not just
• 2:13:48
  Speaker 17: in New York, which will which will suffer. You're going
• 2:13:50
  Speaker 17: to You're gonna lose the ability of folks who really
• 2:13:52
  Speaker 17: were serving you wanted to get some things done. I
• 2:13:54
  Speaker 17: disagree with them, wanted to get things done. But in
• 2:13:57
  Speaker 17: the end, I think the country suffers the wide partisan
• 2:14:01
  Speaker 17: divide and again the virulent, virulent anti semitism. Manami, you know,
• 2:14:06
  Speaker 17: speaks out about a pack, he's really talking about Jews.
• 2:14:09
  Speaker 17: It's a that's just, that's just. And I think, by
• 2:14:12
  Speaker 17: the way, I think one of the Democrat congressmen got
• 2:14:14
  Speaker 17: harm at. One of those guys kind of said that
• 2:14:16
  Speaker 17: literally last night, you could replace Apak. He was about Jews.
• 2:14:20
  Speaker 17: And so as a Jew who were born in Brooklyn,
• 2:14:22
  Speaker 17: who was a Democrat, I switched parties. I didn't switch
• 2:14:25
  Speaker 17: a single position my party, and this was in nineteen
• 2:14:28
  Speaker 17: ninety six, move to the left. Well, now my party
• 2:14:31
  Speaker 17: is in a different zone. They're in a different demand
• 2:14:33
  Speaker 17: my old party a different warp speed where we've gone
• 2:14:36
  Speaker 17: to a different universe. And so sad state of affairs.
• 2:14:40
  Speaker 17: But you're right, it's not just New York City. The
• 2:14:42
  Speaker 17: nation is going to be impacted by this.
• 2:14:44
  Speaker 5: Yeah, cent to norm common, keep fighting for America, keep
• 2:14:47
  Speaker 5: fiver and we'll catch up at you again.
• 2:14:50

• 2:15:04
  Speaker 3: We'll talk a little bit about that and President Trump
• 2:15:06
  Speaker 3: laying down the gauntlet to the oil companies, accusing them
• 2:15:09
  Speaker 3: of gouging.
• 2:15:09

• 2:15:37
  Speaker 18: Yeah, it was a very important as all those Husley

• 2:15:47

  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, thank you, judge, thank you voted the same way.
• 2:15:52
  Speaker 8: Yes.

  Speaker 7: John stood out of the argument.
• 2:15:57
  Speaker 3: Yea, yeah, John, and John is like the like head
• 2:16:00
  Speaker 3: coach Landry. It's good when the when the players fight

  Speaker 7: No self promotion here, that's right, But listen, no excuses
• 2:17:12
  Speaker 7: is going to be on fire, on fire.
• 2:17:16
  Speaker 4: Listen, we have enough time to hit a real issue someday.
• 2:17:18
  Speaker 3: President Trump accusing the oil companies of price gouging. Now,
• 2:17:22
  Speaker 3: I know, and I understand President Trump's frustration, because the
• 2:17:24
  Speaker 3: oil prices have been falling precipitously. We're toggling between sixty
• 2:17:28
  Speaker 3: nine and seventy dollars a barrel all day, all morning.
• 2:17:32
  Speaker 3: We're at three dollars and ninety one cents for a
• 2:17:34
  Speaker 3: national average of a gallon of regular gallon of gasoline.
• 2:17:39
  Speaker 3: I actually think the gasoline prices have been coming down
• 2:17:41
  Speaker 3: pretty fast considering the usual lag.
• 2:17:44
  Speaker 5: You know, I spoke to the President in the price
• 2:17:50
  Speaker 5: of gasoline, and the price of crude oil in North
• 2:17:54
  Speaker 5: America had no reason to go up. We had zero shortages.
• 2:18:00
  Speaker 5: I mean, you know, it's the oil companies, the big,
• 2:18:03
  Speaker 5: big oil following big oil in Europe and Asia.
• 2:18:08
  Speaker 13: I mean, which is wrong.
• 2:18:10
  Speaker 5: And I can understand his frustration, and you know, and
• 2:18:15
  Speaker 5: his well, they did help him out in Venezuela. They did.
• 2:18:20
  Speaker 5: They're gonna help him out, and maybe in Saint Croix.
• 2:18:24
  Speaker 5: But look, it is what it is. But America is
• 2:18:28
  Speaker 5: doing great. Don't forget the price of gasoline is gonna
• 2:18:33
  Speaker 5: go down. If crude oil is going down, interest rates
• 2:18:36
  Speaker 5: are gonna go down. And the stock market, the stock
• 2:18:40
  Speaker 5: market is at fifty two thousand, predicted sixty thousand by
• 2:18:44
  Speaker 5: December thirty one, twenty twenty six. And and and the
• 2:18:50
  Speaker 5: amount of industry, the triggions are dollars of new factories
• 2:18:54
  Speaker 5: that are gonna be opening up in America is not
• 2:18:57
  Speaker 5: factored into those numbers yet.
• 2:18:59
  Speaker 3: And we're at four point three seven percent on the
• 2:19:01
  Speaker 3: ten year yield. I don't want to get too technical
• 2:19:03
  Speaker 3: with you.
• 2:19:03
  Speaker 5: F's down to four point three seven now.
• 2:19:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's a lot down from yesterday and the
• 2:19:09
  Speaker 3: day before. And that is the number one factor in
• 2:19:12
  Speaker 3: how mortgages are are set. There's some other factors as well,
• 2:19:14
  Speaker 3: but when the ten year yield is going down, for
• 2:19:17
  Speaker 3: those of you who want to make this about consumers
• 2:19:19
  Speaker 3: and mom and pop stuff, when the ten year yield
• 2:19:22
  Speaker 3: goes down, your mortgage rates are likely to go down
• 2:19:24
  Speaker 3: as well. And we need, Fernando, we need real estate
• 2:19:27
  Speaker 3: to get hot in this country.
• 2:19:28
  Speaker 6: I mean, my goodness, we need we need everything to
• 2:19:30
  Speaker 6: get hot in this country.
• 2:19:32
  Speaker 7: You know, the president's doing his job. I don't think
• 2:19:35
  Speaker 7: the message is really getting to the people the way
• 2:19:39
  Speaker 7: it should. But the president has all the rights to
• 2:19:42
  Speaker 7: be upset because.
• 2:19:44
  Speaker 6: He did his part. As John said, gas should have
• 2:19:47
  Speaker 6: never gone up. Maybe this should be an investigation as
• 2:19:51
  Speaker 6: to why they went up. Why were the American people
• 2:19:54
  Speaker 6: and the cab drivers and everyone that uses gasoline, why
• 2:19:58
  Speaker 6: were they gouged when there was no need for it?
• 2:20:01
  Speaker 3: And what we should do and the cost of eminem's
• 2:20:04
  Speaker 3: at my local gas station governors through the roof.
• 2:20:06
  Speaker 4: I mean, come on, I mean, you know that's the one.
• 2:20:09
  Speaker 3: But all kidding aside, I do see the price of
• 2:20:12
  Speaker 3: gasoline has been down thirty four of the last thirty
• 2:20:15
  Speaker 3: five days. Again this according to Triple A, which I
• 2:20:18
  Speaker 3: trust that as a national average, and I understand almost
• 2:20:20
  Speaker 3: no one is paying exactly the national average. I sort
• 2:20:22
  Speaker 3: of am my area in Long Island. It was three
• 2:20:24
  Speaker 3: eighty to fill up, so it's only but.
• 2:20:26
  Speaker 7: You fill up with regular. No one fills up with
• 2:20:29
  Speaker 7: regular anymore. I do your car stoles.
• 2:20:32
  Speaker 4: You have an old car, right, No, no, my car
• 2:20:34
  Speaker 4: is three years old, four years old.
• 2:20:35
  Speaker 7: When you have a new car.
• 2:20:37
  Speaker 6: You want to put something at least middle, middle road,
• 2:20:39
  Speaker 6: you know, don't go with the high octane, but don't
• 2:20:42
  Speaker 6: go with the cheap.
• 2:20:42
  Speaker 4: Is I'm a little cheap?
• 2:20:45
  Speaker 7: Well, can I say that's why? That's why all the
• 2:20:47
  Speaker 7: eighty three year olds are are dying to go out
• 2:20:50
  Speaker 7: the double Q pip.
• 2:20:51
  Speaker 18: They pick him dodge, they pick him up in their
• 2:20:54
  Speaker 18: dodge arts.
• 2:20:55
  Speaker 13: That's what they do.
• 2:20:56
  Speaker 4: Yes, but really it's gasoline.
• 2:21:00
  Speaker 3: I'll say you something though, in all my years in
• 2:21:01
  Speaker 3: working in television news obviously mostly based here, although I
• 2:21:04
  Speaker 3: did local news throughout the country, it was like pulling
• 2:21:07
  Speaker 3: teeth in these newsrooms in Manhattan to get us to
• 2:21:09
  Speaker 3: cover gasoline prices as a regular number every day. Because
• 2:21:12
  Speaker 3: these Manhattan based A felt my fellow journalists who are
• 2:21:15
  Speaker 3: all grew up here or don't understand how important it is.
• 2:21:19
  Speaker 3: It is such a psychological and real part of our economy.
• 2:21:22
  Speaker 3: So when we see it going down, even though I
• 2:21:23
  Speaker 3: agree it went too high, it's it's encouraging. And we
• 2:21:26
  Speaker 3: got twenty seconds left, one more day.
• 2:21:30
  Speaker 7: Wait, let me promote no excuses.
• 2:21:33
  Speaker 3: We have a whole days between six and seven.
