• 0:20
  Speaker 2: show in television Saturday nights at ten Fox News Channel.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: It's got the single finest monologue anywhere in television. Today.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: President Trump's a big fan of the show. Jimmy Fayla,
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: How you doing yo, I'm doing good.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Other than the fact that Mom Donnie just erased Little Italy.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: Did you see that map?
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Yeah. They put out
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: a map of all the ethnic neighborhoods. But somehow there's
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: no Little Italy, no Little Italy.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: There's no Irish enclave, there's no Jewish enclave. Mom Donnie
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: is turning New York into the Big Allah, Like come on, man,
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: come on, come on here.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, I mean, if you think of ethnic neighborhoods,
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: that is probably the single most famous, best known ethnic
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: neighborhood in New York. Isn't it.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: There's nothing close. I mean, Little Italy was the first
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: little like this is like if you were rap got
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: rid of Little Wayne. Okay, Little Wayne was the first guy. Okay,
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: they got rid of Little they got Little Italy. And again,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: it definitely sounds like some form of adversity. And that's
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: what I think is bothering a lot of people because
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: you know, Mom, Donnie represents the anti Columbus wing and
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: all of that garbage. So I'm a little worked up
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: over here because you know, I have a lot of
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: Battalian relatives that are listening to the show right now,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: assuming there's not a horse race to fix, and I'm
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: not going to be smirch their honor.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: You understand, h You mustill spend a lot of time
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: in Little Italy as a food at the pizza everything.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: You've you've seen me, Mark, I look like I get
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Peyton Canoli's. Of course, I've spent time in Little Italy
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: and you know, I uh, you know, it's funny like
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: when you start out as a comic in New York,
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: like Little Italy is actually where you spend a lot
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: of late night time because there's a lot of restaurants
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: that are open late night. So you do your sets,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: you bomb for a couple of tourists, and you go
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: eat seven plates of pasta and tell yourself it's gonna
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: be okay. And uh, you know that that mattered to me.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: So when I saw those masks, like, I don't really
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: get caught up in a lot of culture war garbage.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: I'm still trying to get my money back from the
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Grand Platinir campaign. You know, I'm kidding that dirt bag.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: Hey, after calling Trump a Nazi, after calling Trump a rapist,
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: how the hell did they end up nominating this guy?
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: What were they thinking?
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's so funny because they got to this point
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: where politics have become so emotional for the Democratic Party
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: that they're not listening to themselves, meaning they they to
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: the rest of us. Obviously, we had the same reaction.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: We were like, you can't nominate a guy with a
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: Nazi tattoo. They were yelling that Pete Hegsath had a
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Nazi tattoo for ten years and he didn't have one. Okay.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: The cross on Pete HEGs Seth's chest is in the
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: Church of England at the altar, which is you know,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: hardly Hitler territory. Okay, Graham Flatner full Nazi. Okay, obviously
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: every allegation under the sun, and uh listen. The fact
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: that they thought they would get away with like this
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: level of double standard is not shocking to me. But
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: I love watching them now try to, you know, do
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: the gymnastics routine and act like this was never a
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: thing and we knew he was a flawed counted. You know,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: Elizabeth Warren's trying to claim that she had reservations. You know, Oh, good, gosh,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: I got it. I'm gonna keep up with the group.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: The fact that he looked like the crazy killer in
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: Cape Fear, well, why didn't that bother him?
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: It's so funny because I always i that that is
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: the greatest analysis of him I've ever heard, because I
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: just keep looking at him and he just looks like
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: an out of work Walrus with the mustache and fell
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: and oysters to his mom, and everything about him was fake.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: And the point I'm trying to make everybody listening to
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: us right now is the Republican Party is doing a
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: lot of things that drive me crazy, Like I believe
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: we should be passing a voter ID law, and I
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: don't think it's acceptable that John Thune's like, we don't
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: have the votes. There's nothing we can do. Yeah, there
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: is something you could do. Get off your ass and
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: go get the votes. That's what politicians traditionally did. If
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: you don't have it, you go get it, you make
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: a deal. So believe me, I can criticize Republican Party
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: all day, but the Republican Party is not making up
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: people and nominating them for office. I meaning Graham Platner
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: was an out of work loser, and in August of
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: last year, a couple of consultants decided to call him
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: an oyster farmer. They launched a campaign. The campaign was
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: launched before the oyster farming business was and he didn't
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: have a customer beyond his mother because that's who gave
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: him the startup money. Like, they created a fake guy,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: and then they said, oh, but this fake guy with
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: the Nazi tattoo, the sexual assault ally, the dating profile
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: on the child better Rapp, who likes to shake hands
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: with the governor in the men's room. He openly said it,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: this guy relates to the working class, and I just
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: keep saying, what jobs have they worked? That that guy
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: is the relatable guy at the company Christmas party, Now
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: you gotta get down here. The Nazi tattoo guy who
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: just got written up in the New York Times for
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: harassing women. Now it's a big hit. They love him.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: It's crazy, man.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, how you said, you know, same thing with mom Donnie,
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: who's never had a job in his life. Can you
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: mention you go to the interview. I see your resume
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: is blank. How did he keep come to the mayor of
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: New York with never having a job, never worked?
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Yep, Because this is what's happening in the Democratic Party.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: The donors are choosing the candidates, and the blanker the slate,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: the better. Like in theory, Mom Donnie was a TikTok rapper,
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: that's real. He was wrapping on TikTok. But he has
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: that multi ethnic appeal they're going for, which is all
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: class warfare, back to the little Italy thing. It's all
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: divisive garbage. But essentially, the people who want socialist policies
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: advanced are out there, you know, pretty much just curating
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: what they think the perfect representative to sell the messages,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: and then they attach a story to him. This guy's
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: up fighting for the working man. I mean, Graham Platner,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: I mean, come on Graham platt like, if you wanted
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: a review of something on Netflix, Graham Plattner looks like
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: the kind of guy that's been home watching all of it.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: You know, Mom, Donnie's a dirt pick. Okay, but these
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: people that are donating are choosing the candidates. That's why
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: even after Plattner dropped out, they had two hundred and
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: fifteen thousand people voting that main primary. They said, six
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: hundred people are going to choose, So six hundred donors
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: are going to get together in a back room and
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: pick his successor, just the way they did that to Biden.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: Do you remember Biden dropped out. Obama tweeted, we look
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: forward to a rigorous primary. Five minutes later, the White
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: House tweeted Kama of the goal, and we're like, wait,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: what's amazing how that works?
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: Hey, I am so this FIFA. I don't care if
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: I never see another soccer game. Is that just me?
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: Or does anybody else feel that way?
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: No? I am. I'm one hundred percent so relieved that
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: we can quit pretending to care about soccer. Okay, I
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: did it. I have a lot of civic pride. I
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: love the country I was watching, but nothing happens. Man,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: every soccer game, if you just listen to the crowd,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: forget the game. Every soccer game is like, oh oh oh,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: it reminds me of my first few times making love
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: to a woman. Mark Oh oh so close. Oh you
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: just missed a cowboy. Oh that's soccer to me. I
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: just I don't listen to the game. I listened to
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: the crowd, and the crowd just it doesn't sound like
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: they're having fun. Many they don't.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: Uh hey, Jimmy fail. What the Fourth of July weekend?
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: America to fifty? How did you spend it? It must
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: have been a tough weekend for you.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Oh, I was America point two fifty. You know, I
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: had some TV, some backyard barbecue, and on Long Island.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: We weren't on our show was not on the air
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: because the Fourth of July fireworks and the big Trump
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: speech editor on our time slot. So they when something
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: serious is happening in the news, they want me as
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: far away from the TV as possible, you know, because
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: I'm like a cable news rodeo clown. I'm making balloon animals,
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: telling dirty jokes on Saturday night. Today's one of the
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: days I do adulting. I fill in for Gutfeld on
