- 0:00Speaker 1: I'm sorry, did Ray Stajic say low 80s?
- 0:04Speaker 2: You know, I'm down on Ray Stajic in terms of
- 0:09Speaker 2: everything he has said, but you folks, you and Natalie
- 0:12Speaker 2: seem to give him a pass, and obviously our listeners,
- 0:16Speaker 2: wherever they are, but I thought he nailed it.
- 0:18Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not giving him a pass. I thought he
- 0:20Speaker 3: did a great job.
- 0:21Speaker 4: On that forecast with the storm. No, I think he
- 0:24Speaker 4: was a dollar short and a day late. I'm sorry.
- 0:27Speaker 1: You just don't like his temperament. You thought that he
- 0:31Speaker 1: soft-selled it, but what he was actually saying was right
- 0:34Speaker 1: on the money.
- 0:35Speaker 4: Well, he was too laid back.
- 0:36Speaker 2: If you notice, yesterday, all the residual effects of this
- 0:41Speaker 2: nor'easter became very apparent. From the downed power lines to
- 0:46Speaker 2: the downed trees to the beach encroachment.
- 0:50Speaker 4: What beach? The beach is gone. All the way up
- 0:53Speaker 4: the Jersey Shore, South Shore.
- 0:55Speaker 2: Long Island, everywhere you look, including my favorite broad channel,
- 0:58Speaker 2: Howard Beach and the Rockaways, the Irish Riviera.
- 1:02Speaker 4: Wiped out. Wiped out. And I remember him two days before, well...
- 1:07Speaker 4: It might. You never know if it goes west. I
- 1:10Speaker 4: don't know. And I'm like, what?
- 1:13Speaker 2: Compared to the TV forecasters, he was a weather forecaster
- 1:17Speaker 2: on Quaaludes.
- 1:17Speaker 1: You are completely misquoting him. He said it was going
- 1:21Speaker 1: to be bad along the shoreline. It's going to depend
- 1:24Speaker 1: for everybody else how far west it goes. And look,
- 1:28Speaker 1: I barely got anything because I'm way off the shoreline. Natalie,
- 1:31Speaker 1: did you get the high winds and the horrible rain?
- 1:35Speaker 5: No.
- 1:35Speaker 6: No.
- 1:36Speaker 4: So he nailed it. He nailed it.
- 1:40Speaker 2: That's because you're a brother in solidarity with him as
- 1:44Speaker 2: a fellow weather forecaster who spent years in San Diego.
- 1:47Speaker 2: Very difficult job at night. Oh, it's 78. It's a
- 1:53Speaker 2: gorgeous day. The sun is out.
- 1:55Speaker 4: Did it ever rain? Did you ever have a rain forecast?
- 1:57Speaker 4: Here's how easy it is in San Diego. Every weatherman
- 2:02Speaker 4: is given another job. You're a consumer reporter plus.
- 2:08Speaker 7: Got it.
- 2:09Speaker 4: It's like a part-time gig. I did features.
- 2:12Speaker 1: I tried to come up with one for every night
- 2:14Speaker 1: because there's not enough weather to talk about.
- 2:17Speaker 2: So that clicker in your hand that all the weather
- 2:19Speaker 2: guys and gals have where you show all the winds
- 2:22Speaker 2: are coming on shore.
- 2:25Speaker 4: There it was like the clicker was like, They.
- 2:28Speaker 1: Didn't trust me with the flicker. The director did everything.
- 2:31Speaker 1: The director made all of the changes. So, yeah, no.
- 2:36Speaker 2: But wait a second. Jersey Shore twins. Because the both
- 2:38Speaker 2: of you have been basically birthed and grown up on
- 2:44Speaker 2: the southern part of the Jersey Shore. You, Larry, and
- 2:47Speaker 2: the northern part of the Jersey Shore.
- 2:48Speaker 4: You, Natalie. Man, it looked like... a wipeout in some
- 2:53Speaker 4: of those areas.
- 2:54Speaker 1: Yeah, you should see some of the pictures from there.
- 2:57Speaker 1: They were showing a shot, and I think this was
- 3:00Speaker 1: in Long Island because they got hit hard, too. They
- 3:03Speaker 1: were showing the steps going down from either a pier
- 3:06Speaker 1: or a boardwalk. It was going down, and it just
- 3:10Speaker 1: hangs in the air because so much of the sand
- 3:12Speaker 1: was taken out. I'm talking about several feet of sand
- 3:16Speaker 1: taken out. The job they're going to have to do
- 3:19Speaker 1: and the money they're going to have to spend... To
- 3:23Speaker 1: fix the Jersey Shore and the beaches on Long Island
- 3:26Speaker 1: in New York is going to be monumental. You know,
- 3:30Speaker 1: it's so lucky this happened at the end of the
- 3:32Speaker 1: summer because it had to happen the beginning of the summer.
- 3:35Speaker 1: The summer would have been a wipeout. There's some of
- 3:37Speaker 1: these beaches that you're not able to go to right now.
- 3:40Speaker 1: So why do we continue this? Ridiculous.
- 3:45Speaker 4: We go out. We dredge up sand way offshore. We
- 3:49Speaker 4: bring it back. We pour it on the existing beach.
- 3:52Speaker 2: Only to know it's going to be drawn out miles
- 3:56Speaker 2: away and you have to do the process all over again.
- 3:58Speaker 2: We spend, basically, when you think of all the years
- 4:01Speaker 2: we've been doing this, since I was a kid, billions
- 4:03Speaker 2: of dollars.
- 4:04Speaker 4: Yeah, it's going on right now. And we're going to
- 4:05Speaker 4: want it from.
- 4:06Speaker 2: The federal government because we can't afford it with state
- 4:09Speaker 2: funds or local funds.
- 4:11Speaker 4: So it's like, you would have figured by now they
- 4:13Speaker 4: would have.
- 4:15Speaker 2: Decompartmentalize it and forget. We're doing the same thing. This
- 4:19Speaker 2: is the definition of insanity. We do the same thing
- 4:22Speaker 2: over and over just to have a beach.
- 4:24Speaker 1: Yeah, well, that's a big deal. I mean, they do
- 4:26Speaker 1: make a lot of money. Tourism, and especially at the
- 4:29Speaker 1: Jersey Shore, is a huge asset for the state of
- 4:33Speaker 1: New Jersey, and it is for New York and Long
- 4:35Speaker 1: Island as well. Of course, everybody has memories of the
- 4:38Speaker 1: Jersey Shore. Forget about the money that's made. It is
- 4:41Speaker 1: one of the diamonds in this area, one of the
- 4:45Speaker 1: things we treasure in this area. The fact that you
- 4:48Speaker 1: can go to the Jersey Shore, you can go to
- 4:49Speaker 1: Long Island, you can go to any of the New
- 4:51Speaker 1: York City beaches. that's part of your memories from when
- 4:54Speaker 1: you were a kid.
- 4:55Speaker 4: Understood, but you say... And there's a lot of money
- 4:56Speaker 4: to be made, too.
- 4:57Speaker 2: It's a treasure. Well, treasure gets buried. You have no
- 5:00Speaker 2: beach to bury the treasure in. So your druthers are
- 5:03Speaker 2: you would have done nothing?
- 5:04Speaker 7: No, no.
- 5:05Speaker 2: I would say since the Army Corps of Engineers have
- 5:09Speaker 2: been coming up with all kinds of plans since the
- 5:11Speaker 2: 60s when I was a kid, you figure by now,
- 5:14Speaker 2: by now they'd have a better way of retaining the
- 5:17Speaker 2: sand every time a storm hits. You would think by now.
- 5:20Speaker 4: Well, it's not every time a storm hits. It really isn't.
- 5:24Speaker 1: It's like once every several years there's a really bad storm.
- 5:28Speaker 1: And there's a lot of things people don't want to
- 5:31Speaker 1: spend money on.
- 5:32Speaker 4: I agree with you. That ain't one of them.
- 5:35Speaker 1: I think most people, I think you're in the minority here,
- 5:37Speaker 1: most people want to replenish the shorelines because it's one
- 5:41Speaker 1: of our natural beauties and one of our natural treasures.
- 5:43Speaker 4: That's just because you like it, Larry. That's true. And
- 5:46Speaker 4: that's just because you like it, Natalie.
- 5:47Speaker 2: But I bet you there'll be a lot of taxpayers
- 5:49Speaker 2: out there saying, hey, I don't understand that.
- 5:51Speaker 4: I don't go to the beach.
- 5:53Speaker 1: Oh, I'd love to hear from people because I think
- 5:55Speaker 1: that most people... especially in New Jersey and especially in
- 6:00Speaker 1: Long Island, go to some beach during the summer.
- 6:03Speaker 2: The few times that I've been down at the Jersey Shore,
- 6:05Speaker 2: usually we started out early, you know, New Jersey, Turnpike,
- 6:08Speaker 2: Garden State Parkway. And what's the first stop? Got to
- 6:12Speaker 2: get a cup of coffee like everybody else. You're lined
- 6:15Speaker 2: up for all these foreign blends.
- 6:17Speaker 4: You're going to go through the whole day before you
- 6:19Speaker 4: get to the beach?
- 6:19Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 6:21Speaker 4: But everybody seems to line up. Today is National Coffee Day. Oh,
- 6:26Speaker 4: I get it.
- 6:27Speaker 7: Sorry.
- 6:27Speaker 4: And let's face it.
- 6:29Speaker 2: This country is consumed with getting coffee.
- 6:32Speaker 4: Not decaf.
- 6:33Speaker 2: There are people out there who specifically say decaf, but caffeinated.
- 6:37Speaker 2: Caffeinated products, especially coffee for the older folks and for
- 6:41Speaker 2: the younger folks, man, it's the caffeinated drinks. Red Bull, Monster.
- 6:47Speaker 2: In fact, Chris, who has returned, what's the one thing
- 6:50Speaker 2: I asked him, Natalie, right out of the box? Oh,
- 6:53Speaker 2: you millennials, you Gen Zers, first thing in the morning
- 6:56Speaker 2: you want, Red Bull. He said, yeah, two Red Bulls
- 6:58Speaker 2: to get going.
- 7:00Speaker 4: That's all caffeine.
- 7:01Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 7:02Speaker 4: Have you ever tasted Red Bull? Yeah, I don't mind
- 7:03Speaker 4: a Red Bull. Oh, you don't?
- 7:05Speaker 2: No. I find it a nasty taste, but it's really
- 7:08Speaker 2: just to get you, you know, herky-jerky, basically to jumpstart you.
- 7:11Speaker 4: It's huge in colleges.
- 7:13Speaker 1: My college-age kids, they drink it all the time. For tests,
- 7:16Speaker 1: for exams and stuff like that, they're on Red Bull.
- 7:19Speaker 1: And believe me, I prefer that than the alternatives.
- 7:24Speaker 4: That they might be taking. So when they do Red Bull,
- 7:29Speaker 4: I go, good. Thumbs up. I'll go get you a case. Well,
- 7:32Speaker 4: let me give you this new study. You're a coffee guy, Larry.
- 7:35Speaker 2: I notice you're a really good husband in the morning
- 7:38Speaker 2: before you leave to come all the way here to
- 7:40Speaker 2: join me and Natalie and our audience. You make a
- 7:43Speaker 2: cup of coffee for your wife who has to go
- 7:45Speaker 2: opposite you towards Philadelphia, right?
- 7:47Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 7:48Speaker 1: I put it out every single morning. It makes for
- 7:50Speaker 1: a happy marriage. I don't have to do anything else.
- 7:53Speaker 4: Well, I don't know if you're aware of this. I
- 7:55Speaker 4: don't know how you got away with that.
- 7:57Speaker 2: According to the studies, with the 80% of U.S. residents
- 8:01Speaker 2: who consume caffeine, the older you are, it's generally with coffee.
- 8:06Speaker 2: The first sip is the strongest buzz of caffeine you're
- 8:10Speaker 2: going to get all day long. It's like any drug.
- 8:13Speaker 2: You know, your first hit is the strongest. Then you
- 8:15Speaker 2: keep taking more and more hits, thinking you could duplicate
- 8:17Speaker 2: the original hit and it never happens. But they're saying
- 8:21Speaker 2: you shouldn't have that caffeinated coffee until 90 minutes after
- 8:25Speaker 2: you've woken up.
- 8:26Speaker 1: Well, that's ridiculous. That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
- 8:29Speaker 1: And that's one study about how many that have been
- 8:32Speaker 1: out on coffee.
- 8:33Speaker 4: I mean, it's ridiculous. You know, I'm pretty good.
- 8:36Speaker 1: And the other thing is how much you're supposed to drink, right?
- 8:40Speaker 1: Everybody tells you how much you're supposed to drink. For
- 8:42Speaker 1: a while there, it was two. Then it went up
- 8:44Speaker 1: to five. You know, me, 14.
- 8:48Speaker 4: 14?
- 8:49Speaker 1: 14 cups of coffee in a day is probably what
- 8:52Speaker 1: I need. No, you're... How many cups of coffee do
- 8:55Speaker 1: I take during the show? Have you seen me get
- 8:56Speaker 1: up constantly? I'm in there getting another.
- 8:58Speaker 4: Cup of coffee. My mouth is on the ground right now.
- 9:01Speaker 1: I drink a lot of coffee. I can't believe you've
- 9:05Speaker 1: never seen me. Do you think that's the same cup
- 9:07Speaker 1: I'm bringing in all the time?
- 9:09Speaker 4: First of all, that's two. Natalie is stunned now. That's
- 9:12Speaker 4: two in this tumbler.
- 9:14Speaker 2: Now, when the original studies came out and said, you're
- 9:18Speaker 2: going to have a heart attack, you're going to have
- 9:20Speaker 2: a stroke. Remember when they said, if you had more
- 9:22Speaker 2: than three or four cups a day, what was your
- 9:24Speaker 2: reaction back then? Because I'm assuming you've been a regular
- 9:27Speaker 2: coffee drinker all through these years.
- 9:30Speaker 1: I know I'm not going to have a heart attack
- 9:32Speaker 1: because I need the coffee just to stay awake, just
- 9:36Speaker 1: to stay alert. So It never has taken me to
- 9:40Speaker 1: the point where I felt like my heart was going
- 9:43Speaker 1: too fast or I was going too fast. The coffee
- 9:46Speaker 1: just gets me to normal. 14 cups gets you to normal?
- 9:50Speaker 7: Yes. Wow.
- 9:52Speaker 1: If you drink too much coffee, they say that the
- 9:54Speaker 1: dopamine stops being replenished in your body.
- 9:59Speaker 5: Yes.
- 10:00Speaker 1: So you're actually replacing the dopamine.
- 10:02Speaker 4: With the coffee.
- 10:03Speaker 2: So you mean if you were to experiment and just
- 10:05Speaker 2: come in and let's say have a normal one cup
- 10:08Speaker 2: of coffee when you're home before you come and then
- 10:10Speaker 2: another cup here, you would be falling asleep during this program?
- 10:13Speaker 2: I'd be that boring and Natalie would be that boring
- 10:16Speaker 2: that we would put you to sleep?
- 10:18Speaker 1: No, I wouldn't say that you were that boring that
- 10:21Speaker 1: I went to sleep, but I would say my lack
- 10:23Speaker 1: of coffee, yes, would make me drowsy.
- 10:25Speaker 4: Well, let's find out from our many listeners out there
- 10:27Speaker 4: and talk back. Do you think.
- 10:28Speaker 2: 14 cups of caffeinated coffee that Larry drinks religiously.
- 10:36Speaker 1: I'll admit, 14 is a number I just made up.
- 10:40Speaker 1: But I'll start counting. Do you think that's a little
- 10:44Speaker 1: too much? Are you similar to Larry? Or do you
- 10:47Speaker 1: believe this latest study? It says caffeine.
- 10:52Speaker 2: Yeah, if you want to have a regulated day, don't
- 10:55Speaker 2: drink your first cup of caffeinated coffee until 90 minutes
- 11:00Speaker 2: after you wake up. And the whole idea is your
- 11:02Speaker 2: first sip is going to be your strongest caffeine boost
- 11:05Speaker 2: all day long.
- 11:06Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't believe that either. Like I have one
- 11:09Speaker 1: in the afternoon. I go home and I nap and
- 11:12Speaker 1: then I have a cup of coffee as soon as
- 11:14Speaker 1: I wake up.
- 11:15Speaker 3: I just can't even believe it. I only started drinking
- 11:17Speaker 3: coffee five years ago, and I have one cup a day.
- 11:21Speaker 4: National coffee day.
- 11:22Speaker 1: The only downside of it is I go to the
- 11:25Speaker 1: bathroom a lot.
- 11:26Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, it is. It's a good eliminator. Constant. Absolutely.
- 11:32Speaker 4: All day long. Don't worry about it. Don't forget the
- 11:34Speaker 4: prune juice. Just drink the coffee.
- 11:37Speaker 1: Hey, so if you want to leave the talk back,
- 11:39Speaker 1: go to the iHeartRadio app, leave us a talk back.
- 11:41Speaker 1: You could win it courteously, win Larry Mendte in the
- 11:43Speaker 1: morning t-shirt.
- 11:44Speaker 4: You know that.
- 11:45Speaker 1: We award that every single day. And while you're on
- 11:47Speaker 1: the free iHeartRadio app, be sure to stay at a
- 11:49Speaker 1: preset for 710WOR. Well, explain this Giants and Yankees thing.
- 11:57Speaker 1: We have two things, big deals going on in town.
- 11:59Speaker 1: The Giants got a new player, and then the Yankees
- 12:02Speaker 1: have two players that they hope can play, but it's
- 12:06Speaker 1: very doubtful they're ever going to be able to play
- 12:08Speaker 1: this year. But they're praying, they're praying, and they're trying. Plus, man.
- 12:14Speaker 1: I would love to go to this concert. Stevie Wonder
- 12:18Speaker 1: at 825. Tickets to see Stevie Wonder. You're going to
- 12:22Speaker 1: get a chance when they tell you to call in.
- 12:24Speaker 4: Stick around.
- 12:26Speaker 1: Well, the Giants traded for a quarterback. You're not going
- 12:29Speaker 1: to see him on the field right away. It's going
- 12:32Speaker 1: to be Jameis Winston from here on out until he
- 12:37Speaker 1: proves he can't do it.
- 12:38Speaker 4: But they picked up J.J. McCarthy.
- 12:41Speaker 1: Now, if you remember that name, it's because he was
- 12:43Speaker 1: a quarterback when Michigan won the national championship, and he
- 12:48Speaker 1: was the quarterback under his brother, Jim Harbaugh. So John Harbaugh,
- 12:52Speaker 1: I'm sure, made the phone call to his brother and said, hey,
- 12:54Speaker 1: what do you about J.J.
- 12:55Speaker 7: McCarthy?
- 12:56Speaker 1: And I'm sure he raved about him. But in the pros,
- 12:59Speaker 1: he hasn't been that great. He was picked No. 10
- 13:01Speaker 1: by Minneapolis. So he was a top-10 quarterback. I mean,
- 13:04Speaker 1: he was first-round top-10 quarterback.
- 13:07Speaker 9: And.
- 13:09Speaker 1: He was second quarterback picked in that draft. But he
- 13:13Speaker 1: has never really taken off. His quarterback rating is an
- 13:17Speaker 1: abysmal 57.6%. He had 10 games that he played, and
- 13:24Speaker 1: his record, he only won six of them. So he
- 13:30Speaker 1: is a project. There's no question. There's no question he
- 13:33Speaker 1: has talent. But let me just point out that there
- 13:36Speaker 1: are a lot of quarterbacks that that have all this promise,
- 13:40Speaker 1: that are just in the wrong coaching scheme or are
- 13:44Speaker 1: on the wrong team. When they get to the right team,
- 13:47Speaker 1: they flourish. Look at Sam Darnold. I mean, he's a
- 13:51Speaker 1: Super Bowl winner now, right? And he's been spectacular. He
- 13:56Speaker 1: wasn't too great here, but he's spectacular there. So I
- 13:59Speaker 1: would just wait and see. This is going to be
- 14:01Speaker 1: a project, but maybe by the end of the year, Curtis,
- 14:04Speaker 1: you're going to see J.J.
- 14:05Speaker 2: McCarthy No, I said Joe Flacco yesterday with Warner Wolf.
- 14:09Speaker 2: He's tried and true. You can plug him in anywhere.
- 14:11Speaker 2: And he had worked with the Baltimore Ravens, won them
- 14:16Speaker 2: a championship. But anyway, let's turn to the Yankees who
- 14:19Speaker 2: want to win the World Series but have to get
- 14:22Speaker 2: through Boston first. First game tonight at Yankee Stadium. And
- 14:26Speaker 2: they trotted out first Stanton, who hasn't played in five
- 14:30Speaker 2: months to take batting practice and run around the bases
- 14:32Speaker 2: a little bit. Oh, my God. You're not going to
- 14:35Speaker 2: activate him, I hope. He didn't get you to where
- 14:38Speaker 2: you are now. And then, of course, Aaron Judge, the captain.
- 14:41Speaker 2: But he didn't run at all. He just took a
- 14:43Speaker 2: few swings. He's got a calf injury. And he's telling... Basically,
- 14:47Speaker 2: he's telling management ownership, put me in, coach. Put me in, coach.
- 14:51Speaker 2: But I'll tell you this much. As great as Aaron
- 14:54Speaker 2: Judge is during the season, MVP, MVP, he stinks in
- 14:58Speaker 2: the playoffs.
- 14:59Speaker 4: He really does.
- 15:00Speaker 2: And I would say, if he can't run, why would
- 15:04Speaker 2: you activate him?
- 15:05Speaker 9: What?
- 15:06Speaker 4: So he can DH? And what happens if he hits
- 15:08Speaker 4: the ball?
- 15:09Speaker 2: Then he runs to first, and then he collapses because
- 15:11Speaker 2: his calves are not properly healed?
- 15:14Speaker 4: I would say.
- 15:15Speaker 2: Go with the guys who got you there. Stanton certainly
- 15:18Speaker 2: don't activate him. And Aaron Judge, there's no doubt he's MVP.
- 15:22Speaker 2: But I'll be honest with you, every time I've seen
- 15:24Speaker 2: him in the playoffs, he has not delivered.
- 15:26Speaker 4: What do they say about sports?
- 15:28Speaker 1: You never ask the player if he wants to play
- 15:30Speaker 1: because they're always going to say yes. Of course, and
- 15:32Speaker 1: you want them to say yes. Yes, they're always going
- 15:35Speaker 1: to be ready to play. They might have their arm
- 15:37Speaker 1: dangling off.
- 15:37Speaker 4: But, yeah, I'm set, Coach. Let's get some talkbacks. Decaf coffee.
- 15:44Speaker 10: Is one of the biggest disgracias you can think of.
- 15:49Speaker 9: I mean, that's the point of coffee, is the caffeine.
- 15:52Speaker 7: I mean, it's like non-alcoholic beer.
- 15:56Speaker 4: There's no purpose. Thank you. Absolutely, that's true.
- 16:01Speaker 2: It was Sanka that started the decaffeinated, right? They have
- 16:04Speaker 2: that orange thing. When you want decaffeinated, you have to
- 16:07Speaker 2: hit that orange handle. Oh, that's interesting.
- 16:09Speaker 1: So they had two awful things. They not only had
- 16:12Speaker 1: the decaf, but it was instant. Oh, my God, that
- 16:15Speaker 1: was liquid tar. It was double bad.
- 16:18Speaker 4: The bride and I, we roast our own coffee, have
- 16:20Speaker 4: for the last five years.
- 16:22Speaker 7: Curtis, coffee is the nectar of the gods. Natalie.
- 16:27Speaker 4: You got to pick it up. You're slacking behind. All right.
- 16:31Speaker 3: I'll drink faster.
- 16:34Speaker 4: Remember, Larry?
- 16:35Speaker 7: Go ahead.
- 16:35Speaker 4: I was like, I'd just love to know how he
- 16:37Speaker 4: roasts his own coffee.
- 16:38Speaker 3: I mean, I understand grinding.
- 16:39Speaker 4: Your own coffee. You people. There's a whole clique. Of course.
- 16:45Speaker 1: In this building where they are coffee aficionados and they
- 16:49Speaker 1: have to brew their own coffee.
- 16:51Speaker 4: They have to make their own frog. It's like microbrews
- 16:54Speaker 4: for beer now. It's weird. It is just weird.
- 16:58Speaker 1: We've invited you into the clique.
- 17:00Speaker 9: I know.
- 17:01Speaker 11: I know.
- 17:01Speaker 1: You're like the Jehovah Witnesses. You're just after me every
- 17:06Speaker 1: single day.
- 17:07Speaker 4: Join us. You'll love it. Join us. No, no, no, no.
- 17:10Speaker 1: I just have a regular cup of coffee. Let's get
- 17:13Speaker 1: to Daria Albinger now with the 630 News.
- 17:16Speaker 4: Daria.
- 17:17Speaker 3: I don't drink coffee.
- 17:19Speaker 9: Really?
- 17:19Speaker 4: I don't. Well, maybe Natalie can convert you.
- 17:23Speaker 3: Do you see the size of the Diet Coke I
- 17:24Speaker 3: have out there?
- 17:25Speaker 4: She has a big Diet Coke every day.
- 17:28Speaker 3: And I found out that the caffeine in soda comes
- 17:31Speaker 3: from decaffeinated coffee. So I guess I.
- 17:34Speaker 4: Do have my coffee.
- 17:35Speaker 12: Yeah, how about that?
- 17:36Speaker 4: Is that right?
- 17:37Speaker 3: Well, that's at least what one of our reporters found
- 17:40Speaker 3: out when they were covering National Coffee Day, that we
- 17:43Speaker 3: are not decaffeinated. The caffeine that we're getting does come
- 17:47Speaker 3: from coffee. The caffeine that was taken out of decaf
- 17:50Speaker 3: goes into other beverages that have caffeine.
- 17:53Speaker 7: Interesting. Yeah.
- 17:54Speaker 4: Sanka sacrificed that. There you go.
- 17:56Speaker 2: Sacrificed the caffeine so you could get it in your
- 17:59Speaker 2: Diet Coke, both you and the president of the United States,
- 18:02Speaker 2: Donald Trump.
- 18:03Speaker 3: We're keeping him in business.
- 18:04Speaker 1: Why would anybody drink instant coffee with no caffeine? It's
- 18:08Speaker 1: like a lose-lose. That's the worst.
- 18:12Speaker 3: Thing I've ever heard. Do you remember Postum? Back in
- 18:15Speaker 3: the 60s, yeah.
- 18:16Speaker 4: Remember Post-Its? That was horrible.
- 18:20Speaker 13: I know.
- 18:20Speaker 3: I remember my dad used to drink that, and it
- 18:22Speaker 3: just smelled awful. Anyways, mostly cloudy today, a little bit warmer,
- 18:27Speaker 3: high 69 degrees. President Trump hosts an AI summit today
- 18:31Speaker 3: as the warnings continue over its possible threat to humanity.
- 18:34Speaker 3: He and House Speaker Mike Johnson will host Meta's Mark
- 18:37Speaker 3: Zuckerberg and the heads of Anthropic, OpenAI, NVIDIA, and others.
- 18:41Speaker 3: Police want to know who shot and critically wounded a
- 18:44Speaker 3: man while sitting in his car early yesterday in Brooklyn.
- 18:47Speaker 14: The attack happened around 3.20 a.m. in front of a
- 18:50Speaker 14: bodega on Rutland Road near East 93rd Street in East Flatbush.
- 18:54Speaker 14: The unidentified 27-year-old was sitting behind the wheel of a
- 18:57Speaker 14: Mercedes when he was shot in the head. Reports say
- 19:00Speaker 14: there were a number of bullet holes in the car.
- 19:03Speaker 14: He's critical and remains hospitalized. Police say the shooter may
- 19:07Speaker 14: have driven off in a gray sedan. No arrests. Andrew Whitman,
- 19:11Speaker 14: WOR News.
- 19:12Speaker 3: Lindsay Clancy is expected to return to court today as
- 19:14Speaker 3: her attorney pushes for charges against her to be dropped.
- 19:18Speaker 3: The trial of the Massachusetts woman who admitted to strangling
- 19:22Speaker 3: her three children ended in a mistrial. Clancy claims she
- 19:26Speaker 3: was suffering from postpartum psychosis. Well, if you can't get
- 19:30Speaker 3: moving without that morning cup of coffee, today is your day.

- 19:42Speaker 15: four cups and be in the safe range because, let's
- 19:44Speaker 15: face it, caffeine is a stimulant. And that's its appeal.
- 19:48Speaker 15: It makes you alert, helps you focus, and boosts your energy.
- 19:50Speaker 1: Your mood. And if you don't drink coffee, know.
- 19:52Speaker 15: That soda you're reaching for is made from caffeine extracted
- 19:55Speaker 15: from decaf coffee beans. No kidding. I'm Bree Tennis.

- 20:52Speaker 1: Well, just a horrendous case coming to light at a
- 20:56Speaker 1: Ivy League school, Cornell University in Tompkin County. Allegedly last
- 21:04Speaker 1: year in 2024, a woman was gang raped at a party.
- 21:12Speaker 1: And not only was she gang raped, but apparently there
- 21:15Speaker 1: were all of these invitations sent out to guys saying
- 21:21Speaker 1: that come here, that we're going to have a party
- 21:23Speaker 1: and there is going to be this gang rape. And
- 21:27Speaker 1: so they actually advertised this. And the woman who was
- 21:31Speaker 1: now known as Jane Doe originally didn't file any charges. Originally,
- 21:37Speaker 1: she actually sent texts to one of the guys saying that,
- 21:41Speaker 1: you know, she had fun. Let's do it again next time.
- 21:44Speaker 1: Skip the ketamine. Yeah, she was given ketamine, which is
- 21:48Speaker 1: an anesthetic as well as a drug. And she was
- 21:53Speaker 1: snorting that. She was plied with alcohol, and there was marijuana.
- 21:58Speaker 1: And she says she was completely out of it. Now,
- 22:03Speaker 1: the district attorney's office now, after all this time, is
- 22:07Speaker 1: reopening the case. They never had a case in the
- 22:10Speaker 1: first place. Cornell University was handling it by themselves, and
- 22:13Speaker 1: it was very quiet, and it's as if it didn't happen.
- 22:17Speaker 1: And now, this woman, Jane Doe, is suing the university.
- 22:22Speaker 1: Here's her attorney, Thomas Gioffra.
- 22:26Speaker 13: Was any meaningful investigation or follow-up done? The answer would
- 22:29Speaker 13: be no. They had the Instagram... Snapchat.
- 22:36Speaker 4: Snapchat.
- 22:36Speaker 13: They had this Snapchat post inviting men, 57 men, to
- 22:41Speaker 13: participate in a gang rape.
- 22:43Speaker 4: They did nothing. Nothing.
- 22:45Speaker 13: They had that. That was the classic smoking gun.
- 22:47Speaker 7: Any.
- 22:50Speaker 13: Thoughtful police department, any thoughtful district attorney's office would have
- 22:54Speaker 13: run with that and tried to make a case.
- 22:58Speaker 5: They did nothing.
- 22:59Speaker 1: I will say this, the local police did investigate it
- 23:02Speaker 1: early on and she said at the time it was
- 23:06Speaker 1: all consensual. And what is being discussed now and argued now,
- 23:13Speaker 1: is it possible to realize a year later that, oh
- 23:18Speaker 1: my God, I was gang raped. I didn't want any
- 23:21Speaker 1: of that. And what makes it all extremely difficult is
- 23:26Speaker 1: that at that point where she was, did she even
- 23:29Speaker 1: have the ability to give consent? She was out. She
- 23:34Speaker 1: was out. At that point, everything should stop. So this
- 23:38Speaker 1: case is going to go forward. It's going to be
- 23:40Speaker 1: in front of a grand jury right now. A huge
- 23:43Speaker 1: black eye for Cornell University for covering this all up.
- 23:47Speaker 1: And we will see what happens, but it's going to
- 23:49Speaker 1: be a case that has already gotten national attention.
- 23:51Speaker 2: Well, Cornell is in the eye of the storm for
- 23:54Speaker 2: a number of reasons. AOC was up in Ithaca, Cornell
- 23:59Speaker 2: Students 2000 this weekend. She talked about this case as
- 24:04Speaker 2: part of her presentation to get out a Democratic vote.
- 24:06Speaker 2: Hassan Piker was just up there, made national headlines. You know,
- 24:11Speaker 2: there's been questions about that one student who made anti-Semitic remarks, remember,
- 24:17Speaker 2: and then wasn't hired but was welcomed back to the university.
- 24:21Speaker 2: Then I think the university president ran over a demonstrator's foot, remember,
- 24:26Speaker 2: a pro-Palestinian demonstrator. So normally Cornell is the more, I
- 24:31Speaker 2: would say, quieter of the many Ivy colleges.
- 24:35Speaker 5: No longer.
- 24:36Speaker 4: It's like Cornell makes headlines every other month.
- 24:39Speaker 1: Compared to all the things you mentioned, this is horrendous.
- 24:43Speaker 1: This is especially horrendous. And what makes it so horrendous
- 24:48Speaker 1: is they purposely were giving her alcohol and ketamine to
- 24:52Speaker 1: make sure that she wasn't going to put up a fight.
- 24:55Speaker 1: And I don't care what she said the next day.
- 24:57Speaker 1: I don't care what her texts are. The fact that
- 25:00Speaker 1: she did that means that she did not have the
- 25:03Speaker 1: ability to consent.
- 25:05Speaker 4: And this is parents' worst nightmares. Kids go away to school.
- 25:09Speaker 2: And they may get involved in activities that normally, if
- 25:12Speaker 2: they were living at home, they would never even think twice. But,
- 25:15Speaker 2: you know, the peer pressure and whether on the young
- 25:18Speaker 2: lady's part, the young man's part, to a situation that, again,
- 25:23Speaker 2: is horrific.
- 25:24Speaker 4: Horrific.
- 25:26Speaker 2: That's where they could have used you, Natalie. Remember, we
- 25:28Speaker 2: discussed that. You know, rent a mother when your kids
- 25:32Speaker 2: are away at school so somebody could be minding their
- 25:34Speaker 2: P's and Q's.
- 25:36Speaker 3: I think they needed more than a mother.
- 25:37Speaker 7: Yeah. But.
- 25:40Speaker 4: They needed common sense. They needed, uh, right.
- 25:42Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, the only thing that I feel
- 25:44Speaker 1: good about in this whole thing is that the invitation
- 25:48Speaker 1: went out to 57 and 50 said no. So, uh,
- 25:52Speaker 1: you know, it gives me hope that they aren't all scumbags.
- 25:56Speaker 4: I'm actually shocked that seven said yes.
- 25:58Speaker 17: That to me, I won, but seven, I know, I
- 26:04Speaker 17: know that's the disturbing part to me.
- 26:06Speaker 1: And they plied her with, drugs to make sure that
- 26:10Speaker 1: she couldn't put up a fight and to make sure
- 26:13Speaker 1: that she couldn't say no she's she doesn't remember most
- 26:16Speaker 1: of it she said she was out of it for
- 26:18Speaker 1: the entire thing ketamine will put you out.
- 26:20Speaker 2: Oh yeah oh yeah look look she's gonna go before
- 26:23Speaker 2: the grand jury no doubt they'll get indictments uh but
- 26:27Speaker 2: then if it does go to trial uh they're gonna
- 26:30Speaker 2: try to rip her apart every defense attorney representing all
- 26:34Speaker 2: seven because you're not going to have a collective defense
- 26:36Speaker 2: they're all going to have their own defense counsel And
- 26:38Speaker 2: they're going to take opportunities to try to shred apart
- 26:41Speaker 2: her integrity.
- 26:42Speaker 4: Like, why would you have even committed to this to
- 26:44Speaker 4: begin with?
- 26:45Speaker 5: Right.
- 26:45Speaker 4: And the texts are bad.
- 26:46Speaker 16: Right.
- 26:46Speaker 1: The texts afterwards are bad. And look, I hope a
- 26:50Speaker 1: jury can see past a lot of that stuff because– Obviously,
- 26:55Speaker 1: she was embarrassed. Obviously, she liked this one guy who
- 26:59Speaker 1: set this up. And if you read his text, he's
- 27:01Speaker 1: playing her. Oh, I'm so sorry that happened.
- 27:05Speaker 4: No, no, no. I mean, it's going to be interesting, though.
- 27:07Speaker 4: You're right.
- 27:08Speaker 1: You're absolutely right. They're going to have a decent defense
- 27:11Speaker 1: because of her own words. But I hope this sends
- 27:15Speaker 1: a lesson across the country. Every household in a rural town...
- 27:20Speaker 1: gets $ 10, 000. How about that? Wouldn't you like to be
- 27:23Speaker 1: that town? Oh, there's a catch. A data center comes
- 27:27Speaker 1: with it. What would you do? We'll talk about it next.
- 27:30Speaker 2: Larry, Natalie, our audience, the days of trying to build
- 27:34Speaker 2: and open up an AI data filing center in a
- 27:37Speaker 2: community without them knowing it is over. You'll never get
- 27:40Speaker 2: under the radar screen. So in this particular community, Pocono Foothills,
- 27:45Speaker 2: in Hazel Township, population 10,460. They tried to sweeten up
- 27:52Speaker 2: the locals. First, they paid for all the amusement rides
- 27:56Speaker 2: at the annual Italian festival over the summer. Everybody gets
- 28:00Speaker 2: the ride for free. Then they made a public vow
- 28:03Speaker 2: that they would fund the local schools, the fire departments,
- 28:07Speaker 2: other services. They would do all that. Then they had
- 28:10Speaker 2: the community meetings. And they got this tremendous blowback. They figured, well,
- 28:15Speaker 2: wait a second, we sugared them up. Why are they
- 28:17Speaker 2: so hostile? So somebody in the corporate chain, and in
- 28:21Speaker 2: this particular corporation, it's North Point Development, which is trying
- 28:26Speaker 2: to build the AI data filing center and operate it.
- 28:31Speaker 4: They decided, let's try one more ploy.
- 28:34Speaker 2: Let's send a personalized letter to each of the 10,460
- 28:37Speaker 2: residents of Hazel Township, and offer them $ 10, 000, no strings attached.
- 28:47Speaker 4: That's a total of $ 45 million.
- 28:49Speaker 2: Now, understand the average income of the residents of Hazel
- 28:53Speaker 2: Township is $ 60, 000. That would cover six months' rent in
- 28:58Speaker 2: most places, fund groceries, gas. And most said, absolutely no.
- 29:03Speaker 2: We do not want an AI data filing center in
- 29:06Speaker 2: our backyard.
- 29:07Speaker 4: You're going to suck up the water. Our utility rates are.
- 29:10Speaker 2: Going to go up. And more importantly, what are you
- 29:12Speaker 2: going to do about the noise that is nonstop? So
- 29:17Speaker 2: even in this case. Larry, you couldn't bribe them. Now,
- 29:21Speaker 2: will they raise the ante? Will they then say, well,
- 29:24Speaker 2: it's 45 million. It's nothing to us. Let's do 20,000.
- 29:27Speaker 2: Let's do 30, 40, 50,000 and then turn neighbor versus neighbor.
- 29:32Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll see what happens. I mean, just to explain
- 29:35Speaker 1: what Hazel Township is, when you hear the pocono's you
- 29:38Speaker 1: think it's oh it's up in the mountains it's not
- 29:40Speaker 1: in the mountains in the foothills of the mountains and
- 29:42Speaker 1: it's it's a nice really quaint community small as you
- 29:46Speaker 1: heard about 10 000 people and um but if you
- 29:51Speaker 1: look at it it looks like it it's out of
- 29:52Speaker 1: a movie set And I will tell you from getting
- 29:56Speaker 1: to know the people of that part of the country
- 29:59Speaker 1: in that part of Pennsylvania, they're stubborn. They're a stubborn
- 30:04Speaker 1: breed and they like the old ways. They like their
- 30:09Speaker 1: town exactly the way it is. If you go through
- 30:13Speaker 1: any of the towns in the Poconos, they are pristine
- 30:16Speaker 1: and they make most of their money from people that
- 30:19Speaker 1: go skiing and vacation. That's where they make almost all
- 30:23Speaker 1: of their money. So when a data center comes in,
- 30:26Speaker 1: think about it for a second, that threatens everything. That
- 30:29Speaker 1: threatens their way of life. It threatens not only their
- 30:33Speaker 1: community and the way it looks and how nice it is,
- 30:38Speaker 1: but it also threatens tourism. It threatens their only industry.
- 30:43Speaker 1: So I can see why they're saying that. No, I'm
- 30:47Speaker 1: sure they're saying, you've got to give us a lot
- 30:48Speaker 1: more than that to make up for what this town's.
- 30:51Speaker 4: Going to lose.
- 30:51Speaker 2: Remember, originally, like most governors, Shapiro in Harrisburg was giving
- 30:56Speaker 2: 10-year tax abatements. Like half in the bag Murphy did
- 31:00Speaker 2: in New Jersey, like other. Oh, yeah, we'll give you
- 31:03Speaker 2: tax abatements. Then all of a sudden they saw the
- 31:05Speaker 2: public outrage. And now Shapiro says I'm banning nondisclosure agreements
- 31:11Speaker 2: between local governments and data center companies. Everything must be transparent.
- 31:16Speaker 2: I want to put a hold on development because they
- 31:19Speaker 2: feel the political winds.
- 31:21Speaker 4: They feel the.
- 31:22Speaker 2: Anger of the public. And this crosses partisan lines. Republicans, Democrats, Independents.
- 31:28Speaker 7: Absolutely.
- 31:28Speaker 1: That's mostly Republicans. In Hazel Township, that's mostly Republicans. And
- 31:32Speaker 1: it's really interesting what they are upset about. It's not
- 31:36Speaker 1: so much the strain on the water supply. It's not
- 31:39Speaker 1: so much the strain on the environment. They are worried
- 31:43Speaker 1: about the way they look. They are a town that
- 31:47Speaker 1: looks like it's out of Mayberry, and they don't want
- 31:51Speaker 1: some high-tech data center or high-tech anything in that town.
- 31:55Speaker 4: So 50,000 apiece won't do it, Larry? 60, 70?
- 31:57Speaker 2: Because, you know, this company has endless resources, the billions
- 32:02Speaker 2: that are being poured into Wall Street now to develop
- 32:05Speaker 2: AI data filing centers. As Michael Bloomberg said, everybody has
- 32:10Speaker 2: a price. No, that's not the case, Michael Bloomberg. We'll see,
- 32:15Speaker 2: because this is their identity. This is their culture. This
- 32:18Speaker 2: is their heritage. Are they willing to sell that?
- 32:21Speaker 4: I'm not sure. I'm not sure.
- 32:23Speaker 1: The people in the Poconos, they are a proud bunch,
- 32:26Speaker 1: and I'd be really shocked. I'd be really shocked if
- 32:30Speaker 1: they had a price and they give in.
- 32:31Speaker 4: You're right. It might cause some turmoil in town. I concur.
- 32:34Speaker 4: It may cause some turmoil. There might be some people
- 32:36Speaker 4: that want it.
- 32:37Speaker 2: You know, a guy like Bloomberg thinks everybody has a price.
- 32:40Speaker 2: That's just not the case in America. We are so
- 32:43Speaker 2: much to talk with John Decker about. And also, we
- 32:46Speaker 2: got word John Decker had several questions.
- 32:50Speaker 4: Trump loves our White House correspondent, John Decker.
- 32:54Speaker 1: We'll hear what he had to say and what he
- 32:56Speaker 1: asked coming up after the news. You know, Curtis, we
- 32:59Speaker 1: haven't really talked about this Iranian terror plot. There was
- 33:02Speaker 1: an attack that was planned on a U.S. military base
- 33:06Speaker 1: in the United Kingdom, but John Decker's all over it.
- 33:08Speaker 1: John Decker, W.O.R., White House correspondent. and Washington correspondent. He's
- 33:12Speaker 1: also host of the podcast The White House Briefing Room
- 33:15Speaker 1: with John Decker. You can find that on the iHeartRadio app. So, John,
- 33:20Speaker 1: I know that there was an availability yesterday. I know
- 33:22Speaker 1: you got several questions in. Tell us the latest on
- 33:26Speaker 1: this terror attack. I know that President Trump was very
- 33:30Speaker 1: proud that it was thwarted.
- 33:35Speaker 7: John?
- 33:36Speaker 4: Momentarily, we'll get them up there, I think, to dischronification. Oh,
- 33:40Speaker 4: here it is.
- 33:40Speaker 5: There you go.
- 33:41Speaker 4: Hey, John, did you hear what I said?
- 33:43Speaker 7: No, I missed everything that you said leading up to
- 33:46Speaker 7: your introduction. I'm so sorry.
- 33:48Speaker 1: I was saying really nice things about you, how many
- 33:51Speaker 1: questions you got in, that you were the star of
- 33:54Speaker 1: the availability, and.
- 33:55Speaker 4: That— Stop glazing them! Yeah.
- 34:00Speaker 1: But we were talking about the terror attack that was
- 34:04Speaker 1: thwarted in the United Kingdom, the one by Iran. Donald
- 34:08Speaker 1: Trump seems like he was very proud of that, that
- 34:11Speaker 1: he thwarted it.
- 34:12Speaker 7: Well, absolutely. And he was asked about it. He said
- 34:14Speaker 7: he would not have released those individuals on bail. He
- 34:17Speaker 7: made it sound like U.S. intelligence has more information than
- 34:21Speaker 7: has been made public regarding these individuals. And as far
- 34:26Speaker 7: as British authorities are concerned, they say that their investigation
- 34:30Speaker 7: is not closed. So this matter, you know, may still
- 34:34Speaker 7: have elements of it that we do not know yet.
- 34:37Speaker 7: And these individuals may indeed ultimately be charged with certain
- 34:43Speaker 7: crimes and punished for those crimes related to alleged terrorism
- 34:49Speaker 7: at this British air base that the U.S.
- 34:52Speaker 4: Uses.
- 34:53Speaker 2: John Decker, Fox News Sunday head on the ambassador to
- 34:56Speaker 2: Red China. And he said something that I think stunned
- 35:00Speaker 2: not just me, but others in the country, that when
- 35:03Speaker 2: the president of the United States, Donald Trump, was entertaining
- 35:07Speaker 2: President Xi over the two days, he actually offered to
- 35:11Speaker 2: sell American weapons to Red China. Please say it ain't so,
- 35:16Speaker 2: John Decker. Please say it ain't so.
- 35:19Speaker 7: Well, this is a question that I asked President Trump
- 35:22Speaker 7: yesterday when I was in the Oval Office, because as
- 35:24Speaker 7: you point out, David Perdue, he is the U.S. ambassador
- 35:28Speaker 7: to China. That's what he said in that Fox News
- 35:32Speaker 7: Sunday interview. And I asked the president essentially what you
- 35:35Speaker 7: just asked me.
- 35:36Speaker 4: Can you confirm that?
- 35:38Speaker 7: Can you confirm what Ambassador Perdue said in that interview?
- 35:42Speaker 7: And the president seemed a little confused or baffled by
- 35:45Speaker 7: my question. He said, do you mean China or Taiwan?
- 35:49Speaker 7: And I said, no, I mean China. I mean the PRC.
- 35:52Speaker 7: And the president said that that was not something that
- 35:55Speaker 7: he offered. But let's just say for argument's sake that
- 35:58Speaker 7: the president said to Taiwan, why would you bring that
- 36:02Speaker 7: up with China? Why would you say we're going to
- 36:04Speaker 7: sell some weapons to the country that you view as
- 36:07Speaker 7: a breakaway province? Is that OK? You know, so there's
- 36:10Speaker 7: a lot, I think, more to that story than perhaps
- 36:12Speaker 7: that we know at this point.
- 36:14Speaker 1: How much do we know about President Trump's schedule over
- 36:18Speaker 1: the next several weeks before the midterms? I know he's
- 36:21Speaker 1: going to be barnstorming, but it's going to be really
- 36:23Speaker 1: fascinating where he chooses to go. Do we have any
- 36:26Speaker 1: kind of schedule yet?
- 36:28Speaker 7: We do for this week. We don't have it for
- 36:31Speaker 7: next week. The president will be traveling to some head-scratching places,
- 36:35Speaker 7: for me anyway. Why would you go to Alabama? Why
- 36:39Speaker 7: would you go to Oklahoma? I mean, those are not
- 36:43Speaker 7: states that are viewed as states that are in doubt.
- 36:46Speaker 7: It's North Carolina. It's Ohio. It's Maine. It's Alaska. And
- 36:52Speaker 7: I'm sure the president will hit those spots, but I
- 36:55Speaker 7: don't understand why you take time away from visiting those
- 36:59Speaker 7: critical states where very competitive Senate races are going on.
- 37:03Speaker 7: It's a zero-sum game. If you're in Alabama or One day,
- 37:07Speaker 7: that means you're not in Ohio, and that means that
- 37:10Speaker 7: you're not in Iowa. And so I don't understand the
- 37:13Speaker 7: president's schedule this week. As far as Ohio is concerned,
- 37:16Speaker 7: I'll travel with the president on Saturday to Ohio. That's
- 37:20Speaker 7: where that very competitive race is where Democrats are hoping
- 37:23Speaker 7: to flip a seat. And right now, it's a coin
- 37:26Speaker 7: toss in terms of who's going to win that Senate race.
- 37:28Speaker 2: So, John Decker, so far, what I can gather, what
- 37:31Speaker 2: both the president of the United States, Donald Trump, and J.D. Vance,
- 37:35Speaker 2: the vice president, because he'll also be out on the stump.
- 37:39Speaker 2: They are going to say to people before the midterm elections, yeah, OK,
- 37:43Speaker 2: price of gasoline, diesel, home heating, fuel oil up, utilities up,
- 37:47Speaker 2: groceries up. But, you know, it's a sacrifice you all
- 37:51Speaker 2: have to make in order for Iran not to have
- 37:55Speaker 2: a nuclear weapon.
- 37:56Speaker 4: They don't really think that that's going to work, do they?
- 38:00Speaker 7: Well, that's the message. That's the message the president has
- 38:02Speaker 7: been delivering for weeks, if not months. It's a message
- 38:06Speaker 7: that is hard to sell to individuals and families that
- 38:11Speaker 7: are dealing with high gas prices. I asked the president yesterday,
- 38:14Speaker 7: you know, how long can we expect these elevated prices
- 38:17Speaker 7: at the pump, elevated prices for diesel? Will it last
- 38:21Speaker 7: through the midterm elections? And the president said what he
- 38:24Speaker 7: said before, as soon as the war is over, it'll
- 38:26Speaker 7: come down. And he's right about that. But when will
- 38:29Speaker 7: the war be over? That's the big question. It doesn't
- 38:32Speaker 7: look like it's ending anytime soon.
- 38:34Speaker 1: President Trump has doubled down on his promise to give
- 38:38Speaker 1: thousands of dollars, $ 5, 000, I believe, $ 5, 000 to every American
- 38:44Speaker 1: that votes. I guess every American, doesn't matter if they
- 38:47Speaker 1: vote or not, if the Republicans take the Senate and
- 38:51Speaker 1: the House. And my question to you, Mr. Constitutional Attorney,
- 38:55Speaker 1: is that legal? Is that constitutional?
- 38:58Speaker 7: Well, that's going to be challenged for sure. As you know, Larry,
- 39:03Speaker 7: and as you know, Curtis, the power of the purse
- 39:05Speaker 7: resides with Congress. The president has given different answers at
- 39:08Speaker 7: different times. The president told me in January that he
- 39:12Speaker 7: doesn't need congressional authority to do that. He told me
- 39:15Speaker 7: that at the very beginning of the year, one of
- 39:19Speaker 7: his chief economic advisors, Kevin Hassett, told me something completely different,
- 39:23Speaker 7: that it does require congressional approval. And it's not clear
- 39:27Speaker 7: whether Congress would have enough votes to approve that $ 5, 000
- 39:31Speaker 7: check coming from the federal government. So that is one
- 39:36Speaker 7: of those issues that is unknown. And it's also unclear
- 39:39Speaker 7: why the president needs to do it after the election.
- 39:42Speaker 7: Republicans control the White House, the House, the Senate right now,
- 39:45Speaker 7: If the president wanted to cut a check right now
- 39:48Speaker 7: and believes he has authority, he could do so tomorrow. So,
- 39:51Speaker 7: you know, to me, that would be something in which
- 39:54Speaker 7: voters may say, thank you, Mr. President. Thank you for
- 39:57Speaker 7: that $ 5, 000 check. I'm now going to vote for Republicans
- 40:00Speaker 7: rather than string it out there and hope that the
- 40:05Speaker 7: voters vote your way on Election Day.
- 40:07Speaker 2: Well, the big focus of late has been artificial intelligence,
- 40:11Speaker 2: both the data filing centers that are popping up all
- 40:14Speaker 2: over the country and the warnings of the CEOs.
- 40:18Speaker 4: Danger, danger, danger.
- 40:20Speaker 7: Right.
- 40:21Speaker 2: The president has said it's fake news, yet he's hosting
- 40:23Speaker 2: a conference today. What does he hope to accomplish?
- 40:28Speaker 7: Well, the president wants to get these leaders of artificial
- 40:32Speaker 7: intelligence on the same page. As you may know, on
- 40:36Speaker 7: Sunday night, the president hosted the CEO of Anthropic, who
- 40:40Speaker 7: has been one of those industry leaders who is urging
- 40:44Speaker 7: the federal government to put in place guardrails as it
- 40:47Speaker 7: relates to artificial intelligence. We did not get a readout
- 40:51Speaker 7: in terms of how that dinner went. with that CEO,
- 40:55Speaker 7: either from the White House or from Anthropic. The president
- 40:58Speaker 7: will meet with other leaders from the artificial intelligence industry
- 41:03Speaker 7: for this lunch. Right now, it's closed press. I'm in
- 41:06Speaker 7: the pool today. Hopefully, that opens up and I can
- 41:09Speaker 7: answer a lot of the questions that you may have,
- 41:11Speaker 7: Curtis and Larry, about the president and the administration's focus
- 41:17Speaker 7: on AI going forward.
- 41:19Speaker 1: You know, the Republicans are calling them public service announcements,
- 41:23Speaker 1: but the Democrats are saying these are political ads that
- 41:27Speaker 1: shouldn't be paid for with taxpayer money. But they seem
- 41:30Speaker 1: like they're going to continue happening over the weekend during
- 41:34Speaker 1: some of the football games. People may have noticed there
- 41:37Speaker 1: was an ad that featured Donald Trump in black and
- 41:41Speaker 1: white prominently. Is this one of those cases? I'll go
- 41:46Speaker 1: back to the constitutionality of this. Is this one of
- 41:48Speaker 1: those cases that's going to be challenged?
- 41:51Speaker 7: It's going to be challenged. And here's the issue. You know,
- 41:54Speaker 7: if Democrats retake control of the House, this could be
- 41:59Speaker 7: one of the issues that they hang their hat on
- 42:02Speaker 7: as far as an article of impeachment against the president
- 42:05Speaker 7: using taxpayer dollars. for this effort. You may say, well,
- 42:10Speaker 7: that's not an impeachable offense, and that's always debatable because
- 42:14Speaker 7: impeachment is a political exercise. But there are individuals who
- 42:19Speaker 7: say this certainly skirts that dividing line between legal and illegal.
- 42:27Speaker 7: And as you point out, Larry, the administration is moving
- 42:30Speaker 7: full speed ahead with this, thinking this is going to
- 42:33Speaker 7: change the minds of undecided voters with about four weeks
- 42:36Speaker 7: to go until Election Day.
- 42:38Speaker 4: Now, the president ratcheted up the tariffs.
- 42:41Speaker 2: He said basically no cattle, no dairy, no Billy Joel motorcycles,
- 42:49Speaker 2: no nothing.
- 42:50Speaker 4: What the hell is that?
- 42:51Speaker 2: I mean, this is costing the Republicans in the Midwest
- 42:55Speaker 2: and in New York because the tariffs are hurting people.
- 43:01Speaker 7: Well, there are a lot of things that are hurting people.
- 43:03Speaker 7: The high gas prices, high prices at the grocery store,
- 43:05Speaker 7: and then on top of that, the president's tariffs policy
- 43:08Speaker 7: in certain places, for sure. And you mentioned some of
- 43:12Speaker 7: those places. Also, let's not forget up in New England
- 43:15Speaker 7: with the seafood industry. That also is being hit hard
- 43:18Speaker 7: by tariffs, reciprocal tariffs being imposed upon American seafood. So
- 43:25Speaker 7: that is one of those additional headwinds that Republicans are
- 43:29Speaker 7: dealing with. heading into the midterms. You know, I've looked
- 43:32Speaker 7: at it very closely in terms of what the Senate
- 43:36Speaker 7: looks like, in particular the House. I think that there's
- 43:40Speaker 7: this conventional wisdom that Republicans will lose the House. The
- 43:43Speaker 7: Senate is the big unknown. And as you know, it's
- 43:47Speaker 7: a 53-47 advantage that Republicans have right now, which means
- 43:51Speaker 7: Democrats need to flip four seats. And to me, I
- 43:55Speaker 7: think they can do it. You know, it's one of
- 43:57Speaker 7: those things, it's It really is getting a full straight,
- 44:01Speaker 7: you know, in poker. But it's certainly possible for Democrats
- 44:05Speaker 7: to do that. And they're hoping that Texas and Ohio
- 44:10Speaker 7: and North Carolina and Alaska and maybe even Iowa flip
- 44:15Speaker 7: to give them control of the U.S. Senate for the
- 44:18Speaker 7: next two years.
- 44:19Speaker 2: Well, thank you very much, John Decker, our WOR White
- 44:21Speaker 2: House correspondent. All the questions that you were able to
- 44:25Speaker 2: get into the queue that the president answered for you
- 44:28Speaker 2: and you shared it with us.
- 44:30Speaker 4: Many, many thanks, John.
- 44:32Speaker 7: Thanks a lot, Curtis.
- 44:33Speaker 4: Thanks, Larry.
- 44:33Speaker 7: Talk to you real soon. Bye-bye.
- 44:54Speaker 2: But he ain't giving it up. He's saying, one more time,
- 44:57Speaker 2: one more final tour. All these guys, it's like one
- 44:59Speaker 2: more final tour. Lionel Richie, Barry Manilow. It's a lot
- 45:03Speaker 2: of money.
- 45:04Speaker 4: It's a lot. That's where they make most of their
- 45:06Speaker 4: money on these tours. I know, but hang it up. Yeah,
- 45:10Speaker 4: how much money do you need, right? Hang it up.
- 45:12Speaker 2: It's like either that or just do it. He lives
- 45:15Speaker 2: down in Palm Beach. I saw his mansion there. Just
- 45:18Speaker 2: do your concerts down there in West Palm. I think
- 45:21Speaker 2: the traveling is what really impairs him. Yeah, so we're
- 45:24Speaker 2: not going to hear this. We'll do one concert a
- 45:26Speaker 2: month at Madison Square Garden. You know, his friend Jimmy Dolan,
- 45:30Speaker 2: they come in, same crowd, almost like Rocky Horror, you know,
- 45:34Speaker 2: same words. People would be there in the aisles waiting
- 45:37Speaker 2: for pens, cheering him on.
- 45:39Speaker 1: You said this about other aging rockers. They should do residencies.
- 45:42Speaker 1: They should just do it like in their own hometown
- 45:45Speaker 1: and get it over with. The stress and the strain
- 45:48Speaker 1: goes away.
- 45:50Speaker 4: And you're right.
- 45:50Speaker 1: Billy Joel did that for the longest time. He can't anymore,
- 45:53Speaker 1: of course, because he did have that brain condition with
- 45:57Speaker 1: fluid building up in his brain. And because of that condition,
- 46:01Speaker 1: by the way, he can't ride his motorcycles anymore.
- 46:04Speaker 4: Remember that? You may be right.
- 46:06Speaker 1: The song, I ride my motorcycle in the rain. even
- 46:09Speaker 1: rode my motorcycle in the rain through Bedford-Stuy. That's not
- 46:12Speaker 1: happening anymore because he is now going to, just to
- 46:18Speaker 1: make sure, he never rides a motorcycle again because his
- 46:21Speaker 1: balance is off, too. He's going to auction off 70,
- 46:26Speaker 1: count them, 70 motorcycles November 20th and 21st. Actually, more
- 46:33Speaker 1: than 70, so it must be somewhere between 70 and
- 46:34Speaker 1: 80 November 20th and 21st at the Javits Center in
- 46:39Speaker 1: New York City. Listen to some of the motorcycles he has.
- 46:44Speaker 1: A 1952 Vincent Rapidi Series C, which is considered the
- 46:50Speaker 1: Rolls Royce of motorcycles. So that's going to go for
- 46:54Speaker 1: a couple hundred thousand. 1978 Triumph T140 Bonneville, a classic
- 47:00Speaker 1: British twin featured prominently in in this upcoming auction it
- 47:05Speaker 1: goes down and down but he's got some unbelievably expensive motorcycles.
- 47:09Speaker 2: What did he do when he was feeling well with
- 47:11Speaker 2: over 70 motorcycles i mean you couldn't ride all of
- 47:15Speaker 2: them i remember the one picture that really turned my
- 47:18Speaker 2: stomach he was on the road out there in the
- 47:20Speaker 2: hamptons on one side his buddy jimmy dolan who owns
- 47:23Speaker 2: madison square garden and Andrew Evil Eyes Cuomo, all of
- 47:28Speaker 2: them on Harleys. I'd love to get all three of
- 47:30Speaker 2: those Harleys and destroy them.
- 47:32Speaker 1: Well, you can bid on them.
- 47:34Speaker 4: I don't got the dough. Let's get some talkbacks.
- 47:38Speaker 8: Calling out the AI centers that they're talking about, the
- 47:41Speaker 8: data centers, and that they need water for cooling. I
- 47:44Speaker 8: don't understand why they have to come into certain communities
- 47:47Speaker 8: where they're being like, we don't want you here, and
- 47:50Speaker 8: starting fights when they could build them on the ocean, Alaska.
- 47:56Speaker 8: Greenland with coast, with coastlines.
- 47:59Speaker 7: You're right.
- 48:00Speaker 1: That costs a whole lot of money. It also takes
- 48:02Speaker 1: time and they don't have time. As we've explained several times,
- 48:07Speaker 1: and this comes from industry insiders, they know there's a bubble.
- 48:11Speaker 1: They know it's going to burst. They know a lot
- 48:14Speaker 1: of people are going to lose money. So they want
- 48:17Speaker 1: to get in early and get while the getting is good.
- 48:22Speaker 5: Larry, Curtis, I have a great idea.
- 48:25Speaker 3: So in honor of National Coffee Day, why don't we
- 48:27Speaker 3: do something starting tomorrow? Curtis, you have 14 cups of coffee,
- 48:33Speaker 3: and Larry, you have none.
- 48:35Speaker 9: Let's see how it goes.
- 48:36Speaker 4: Oh, no thanks. He got the better end of that deal.
- 48:39Speaker 2: No, no, no, wait a second. Larry, you went on record.
- 48:42Speaker 2: I don't know if you want to amend that. is
- 48:44Speaker 2: saying that you drink 14 cups of caffeinated coffee a day.
- 48:51Speaker 1: Yeah, that's an estimate. We'll see if it's true. I'm
- 48:53Speaker 1: now going to keep count today. This is my third.
- 48:55Speaker 2: All right, but when we heard Daria's news report, the
- 48:59Speaker 2: contributor said, oh, you know, four to five cups, that's it.
- 49:02Speaker 4: You've tripled that.
- 49:04Speaker 1: No, wait a second. She didn't say four to five,
- 49:05Speaker 1: that's it. They said, and Daria, correct me if I'm wrong,
- 49:08Speaker 1: four to five cups are good for you.
- 49:10Speaker 3: She said four to five, yeah, to keep yourself in
- 49:12Speaker 3: the safe range.
- 49:13Speaker 4: There you go. But they're good for you.
- 49:15Speaker 1: They help your mental acuity. They help your sex life.
- 49:19Speaker 1: What else does it do?
- 49:20Speaker 2: Head is going to explode off your shoulders with 14
- 49:23Speaker 2: cups of.
- 49:23Speaker 1: Coffee they're not i mean i've never had that effect
- 49:26Speaker 1: it actually just keeps me alive and unparalyzed that's what
- 49:31Speaker 1: it does Let's get to Daria Albinger now with the
- 49:34Speaker 1: 7.30 news.
- 49:35Speaker 7: Daria.
- 49:36Speaker 2: All right.
- 49:36Speaker 3: The highly caffeinated morning crew here. Mostly cloudy. A little
- 49:40Speaker 3: warmer today. A high of 69 degrees. A serious data
- 49:43Speaker 3: breach at the Pentagon to tell you about.
- 49:47Speaker 11: The Pentagon is dealing with its own data breach. An
- 49:50Speaker 11: official confirms an employee database was compromised with hackers obtaining
- 49:54Speaker 11: the personal information of nearly 3 million current, former, and
- 49:58Speaker 11: deceased members of the military.
- 50:00Speaker 3: That's ABC's Karen Hua in Washington. They are looking into that.
- 50:04Speaker 3: President Trump is hosting an AI summit at the White
- 50:07Speaker 3: House as the warnings continue about the possible dangers of
- 50:09Speaker 3: the technology. Mark Zuckerberg and the heads of Anthropic, OpenAI,
- 50:13Speaker 3: and other companies are.
- 50:14Speaker 5: Going to be there.
- 50:15Speaker 3: A New Jersey woman is bringing a new meaning to
- 50:17Speaker 3: the term house cleaning. She works as a maid, and
- 50:21Speaker 3: she's accused of stealing over $ 100, 000 worth of items from
- 50:25Speaker 3: the homes of people she worked for.
- 50:28Speaker 18: Local police say the thefts were reported by people in
- 50:30Speaker 18: the homes between August 29th and September 11th, although cops
- 50:33Speaker 18: say some of the thefts happened months earlier. Detectives say
- 50:36Speaker 18: it did not take long to connect the house cleaner
- 50:38Speaker 18: to the cash, jewelry, personal documents, and Other items swiped
- 50:41Speaker 18: from all the homes that she was hired to clean.
- 50:44Speaker 18: Investigators also say 50-year-old Beata Kucharsic of Linden handed over
- 50:48Speaker 18: a photo ID to a store in Linden as part
- 50:50Speaker 18: of the transactional record of her selling some of the
- 50:53Speaker 18: stolen items. Kucharsic arrested last Wednesday, charged with second-degree theft.
- 50:57Speaker 18: She is in jail. I'm Levon Putney.

- 51:33Speaker 3: Rangers are in Boston. Next news, 8 o'clock, bulletins at once.
- 51:38Speaker 3: I'm Daria Albinger on 710WOR.
- 51:40Speaker 4: Thank you very much, Daria.
- 51:42Speaker 1: There are a handful of congressional seats that are going
- 51:45Speaker 1: to decide the future of the country and the future
- 51:48Speaker 1: of the House of Representatives and several in our area,
- 51:52Speaker 1: including New York 17, where Mike Lawler is the Republican
- 51:57Speaker 1: congressman and Kate Conley is the Democrat running against him.
- 52:02Speaker 1: It's a toss up right now. They had a debate
- 52:04Speaker 1: last night. We'll talk about it when we come back.
- 52:07Speaker 1: And starting Monday, WOR has nine chances every weekday to
- 52:13Speaker 1: score a grand in your hand. Listen for the keyword
- 52:17Speaker 1: after every hour. There's a keyword every hour from 9 a.m.
- 52:22Speaker 1: until 5 p.m. Enter it on our website and you
- 52:26Speaker 1: could win a thousand bucks starting on Monday. Right now
- 52:32Speaker 1: in America, according to the Cook Report, which I consider
- 52:35Speaker 1: the Bible when it comes to elections, of all of
- 52:39Speaker 1: the House races across the country, there are 22 that
- 52:44Speaker 1: are considered toss-ups. And they are the ones that are
- 52:49Speaker 1: going to decide who controls the next House of Representatives.
- 52:54Speaker 1: And one of those seats is New York 17 in
- 52:57Speaker 1: Hudson County. It's other counties as well. but mostly Hudson County.
- 53:01Speaker 1: And they had a debate last night between Kate Conley,
- 53:04Speaker 1: the Democratic challenger, and Mike Lawler, the sitting Republican congressman.
- 53:10Speaker 17: We need to do a better job of actually delivering
- 53:12Speaker 17: for people. And that means putting these problems in context
- 53:16Speaker 17: and solving them with the urgency and aggressiveness that people deserve.
- 53:18Speaker 19: We delivered the largest tax cut in American history, putting
- 53:22Speaker 19: more than $ 4, 000 back in the pockets of hardworking Hudson
- 53:25Speaker 19: Valley families. I fulfilled my promise to lift the cap
- 53:29Speaker 19: on salt from $ 10, 000 to $ 40, 000.
- 53:31Speaker 1: That's both when they were setting up what they have
- 53:34Speaker 1: done and what they're going to do. When they really
- 53:37Speaker 1: got into it, Curtis... was when they started talking about Israel,
- 53:41Speaker 1: when they started talking about Zoran Mamdani, and when they
- 53:45Speaker 1: started talking about Donald Trump.
- 53:47Speaker 4: That was the real back and forth.
- 53:49Speaker 17: I denounce anti-Semitism from anyone.
- 53:51Speaker 5: Do you denounce Zoran Mamdani? I've denounced Tucker Carlson. I've
- 53:54Speaker 5: denounced Candace Owens.
- 53:55Speaker 7: This is a huge stunt.
- 53:56Speaker 5: Do you denounce Zoran Mamdani?
- 53:58Speaker 17: I have firm disagreements with members of the DSA within
- 54:01Speaker 17: the Democratic Party. We have any form of hate has
- 54:04Speaker 17: no place, period, full stop. Look, as a former military
- 54:07Speaker 17: police officer— I support our law enforcement and ensuring the
- 54:11Speaker 17: safety and security of our communities. I support border security
- 54:14Speaker 17: as part of national security. And I absolutely call out
- 54:17Speaker 17: my own party when I believe it's wrong.
- 54:18Speaker 5: But you don't denounce Oran Mandani.
- 54:20Speaker 17: Have you denounced Donald Trump and the harm that he
- 54:22Speaker 17: has caused to our families here in the Hudson Valley? No,
- 54:25Speaker 17: you voted with him 100 percent of the time, Mike.
- 54:27Speaker 5: You continue to lie about that. It's provably false.
- 54:30Speaker 1: More than anything else, that back and forth you just
- 54:34Speaker 1: heard is going to be a big deal in election
- 54:37Speaker 1: ads and elections that are very close.
- 54:39Speaker 4: Oh, I would have pirouetted on Mike. I said, Mike,
- 54:41Speaker 4: what are you talking about?
- 54:42Speaker 2: Donald Trump just embraced Soran Mondami, said he's going to
- 54:46Speaker 2: be a great mayor. What are you talking about? Did
- 54:50Speaker 2: Donald Trump call him an anti-Semite? That's what I would
- 54:53Speaker 2: have done. And that would have been tough for Lawler.
- 54:56Speaker 2: It's tough for all Republicans now because of what the
- 54:58Speaker 2: president did by going to Gracie Mansion and having the
- 55:01Speaker 2: third love affair with him.
- 55:03Speaker 1: You want that to be a campaign strategy, but nobody's
- 55:08Speaker 1: brought it up.
- 55:09Speaker 4: You have.
- 55:11Speaker 2: This Lawler-Caitlin race, every network has ads because they both
- 55:16Speaker 2: raised a total of $ 16 million, so it's nonstop. She
- 55:20Speaker 2: has him attached to Trump, and he has her attached
- 55:25Speaker 2: to Zoran Mondami.
- 55:26Speaker 4: I agree with that.
- 55:27Speaker 2: That would have worked until Trump decided to go visit
- 55:31Speaker 2: Zoran Mondami and have a love fest.
- 55:34Speaker 1: No, it's still working. That's what I'm trying to say.
- 55:36Speaker 1: You make it so that that is a big campaign issue,
- 55:40Speaker 1: the fact that Trump went and met with Zoran Mondami.
- 55:44Speaker 1: Honest to God, you're the only one I've heard bringing
- 55:47Speaker 1: that up.
- 55:47Speaker 9: No, no.
- 55:48Speaker 4: The Blakeman people are bringing it up all the time.
- 55:50Speaker 4: How could you do this to us? How do you
- 55:52Speaker 4: know that? Excuse me, Larry. Again, time out. I am
- 55:56Speaker 4: a Republican. I have a lot of contact.
- 55:58Speaker 1: And you talk to Blakeman people? All the Republicans. They've
- 56:01Speaker 1: told you that. I'm just asking you the question. Just
- 56:04Speaker 1: got to say yes. You don't have to be nonplussed.
- 56:06Speaker 4: You act shocked that Republicans in New York State have
- 56:10Speaker 4: known for years.
- 56:10Speaker 1: Because they're not doing it publicly. Nobody's doing that publicly.
- 56:13Speaker 1: Nobody's running on that or against it. That's why I'm surprised.
- 56:17Speaker 1: You think that meeting helped, Lola? You think that meeting helped?
- 56:21Speaker 1: Every piece of lit. has them attacking their opponent. Then
- 56:25Speaker 1: why aren't we seeing that across the country? Why isn't
- 56:28Speaker 1: that everywhere? Why isn't it in New York? Why isn't
- 56:30Speaker 1: it in New Jersey? Why don't we hear people talking
- 56:32Speaker 1: about it? It's a big deal to you.
- 56:34Speaker 2: I can only share with you my experiences with Republicans
- 56:39Speaker 2: that I've dealt with now for 10 years.
- 56:42Speaker 1: And if you want to take that with a grain
- 56:44Speaker 1: of salt, that's fine. No, I'm not taking it with
- 56:46Speaker 1: a grain of salt. I just was asking you questions.
- 56:48Speaker 1: That's all I did. I didn't say I doubted you.
- 56:51Speaker 1: I was asking you questions. And you get upset every
- 56:54Speaker 1: single time as if I'm questioning you. And I am
- 56:57Speaker 1: questioning you. But I'm not questioning you to the point
- 56:59Speaker 1: where I doubt you. I just want to get more
- 57:02Speaker 1: information because I'm not what you're talking about.
- 57:05Speaker 4: I'm not seeing.
- 57:06Speaker 2: Being married to Donald Trump in our area is not
- 57:09Speaker 2: going to help you. So if the Democrats keep marrying
- 57:12Speaker 2: Blakeman and Lola to Donald Trump, that does not help.
- 57:16Speaker 1: I agree with that. Yeah, I agree with that. That's
- 57:19Speaker 1: absolutely true. And that's been happening, by the way. That
- 57:22Speaker 1: doesn't happen.
- 57:22Speaker 2: One thing about what they had to say was interesting.
- 57:26Speaker 2: Because we talked about the data filing centers, which is
- 57:30Speaker 2: a big issue in that district in Rockland, Putnam, Westchester, Dutchess.
- 57:35Speaker 2: That's the law of the district. Lawler has taken the
- 57:37Speaker 2: right point. He said, leave it up to the communities.
- 57:40Speaker 2: Let them make the decision. That's the best policy. Meantime,
- 57:44Speaker 2: she was for it originally. And then she hid behind Hochul, said, well,
- 57:48Speaker 2: there's a one-year freeze. I believe what Governor Hochul did.
- 57:51Speaker 2: So she's not as good as the other two military candidates,
- 57:56Speaker 2: one who won already, the governor in New Jersey, beat
- 57:59Speaker 2: Jack Cittarelli, the congresswoman who was running against Tom Cain Jr.,
- 58:04Speaker 2: the woman who was running for Congress there, the helicopter pilot.
- 58:06Speaker 4: Rebecca Bennett.
- 58:07Speaker 7: Right.
- 58:07Speaker 4: Yeah. She's just not at that level yet. Rebecca Bennett's
- 58:12Speaker 4: really good.
- 58:12Speaker 1: I feel bad for Tom Kane Jr. because he had
- 58:15Speaker 1: enough going against him, and now he's got a great candidate.
- 58:18Speaker 1: But Kate Conley, I agree with you. I think she's
- 58:20Speaker 1: not ready for prime time. I was not going to
- 58:23Speaker 1: say it, to tell you the truth, because I was
- 58:25Speaker 1: going to give her the benefit of the doubt because
- 58:26Speaker 1: I didn't see the whole debate.
- 58:28Speaker 4: But what I saw... She is not good.
- 58:30Speaker 2: Unfortunately, it was a debate in the afternoon on News 12.
- 58:35Speaker 4: Come on.
- 58:36Speaker 2: There should be two debates, prime time, so that the
- 58:39Speaker 2: voters who have to work, Larry, they're working during the day,
- 58:43Speaker 2: you know, to pay their taxes, to pay their expenses.
- 58:45Speaker 2: They should have that available to them, at least two
- 58:48Speaker 2: separate debates.
- 58:49Speaker 4: I agree with you, but I think both candidates... don't
- 58:53Speaker 4: want them.
- 58:54Speaker 7: Of course.
- 58:54Speaker 1: And both candidates don't want them because they don't really
- 58:57Speaker 1: move the needle. They do in the mayoral debate, like
- 59:00Speaker 1: as you found out, they do in a gubernatorial debate.
- 59:03Speaker 1: Any executive debate, senatorial debates, not congressional debates.
- 59:06Speaker 2: I think Lolo figures he got the better of her
- 59:09Speaker 2: because of his experience.
- 59:10Speaker 4: So it's one and done for him. But he's really good.
- 59:13Speaker 4: He is very, very good.
- 59:16Speaker 1: And she, just as I said, was not ready for
- 59:18Speaker 1: prime time. But yeah, debates, congressional debates don't mean anything.
- 59:22Speaker 2: Up next, it was the 20th death as a result
- 59:26Speaker 2: of somebody on an e-bike trying to deliver a 50-year-old
- 59:30Speaker 2: woman right in the shadow of Macy's, and it was
- 59:33Speaker 2: yesterday at 11 as it was raining outside, and a
- 59:37Speaker 2: dump truck unfortunately crushed this woman to death.
- 59:41Speaker 4: We'll discuss that up next.
- 59:44Speaker 2: So you know how they say alternative transportation needs, and
- 59:49Speaker 2: there are a variety of ways you can get around
- 59:51Speaker 2: the city. Yesterday when I left here, I tried to
- 59:54Speaker 2: use my OmniPass to get in the subway like I
- 59:56Speaker 2: do every day, every night. It wasn't working anywhere in
- 59:58Speaker 2: the city. So if you had an OmniPass, MTA, money-taking agency,
- 1:00:02Speaker 2: was not taking your money. So I walked home, and
- 1:00:05Speaker 2: I remember it was drizzling. It was drizzling. It wasn't
- 1:00:08Speaker 2: a downpour, but a drizzle. But about that same time
- 1:00:11Speaker 2: at 11 a.m., a 50-year-old female working as a delivery
- 1:00:17Speaker 2: worker while staying at an East Harlem shelter said, was
- 1:00:22Speaker 2: going west on 34th Street as you pass Macy's and
- 1:00:27Speaker 2: Herald Square. So she's traveling westbound. Apparently, there was a
- 1:00:32Speaker 2: dump truck behind her. And as they approached 7th Avenue,
- 1:00:37Speaker 2: a collision where the dump truck crushed her and then
- 1:00:41Speaker 2: moved forward and then eventually stopped. This makes the 20th
- 1:00:46Speaker 2: fatality of somebody killed on an e-bike.
- 1:00:50Speaker 4: Most of them delivery people.
- 1:00:52Speaker 2: But the point is, is like, okay, the way you
- 1:00:55Speaker 2: straighten this out is what we've talked about, Larry and Natalie,
- 1:00:59Speaker 2: quite a bit here, is you get license plates. You
- 1:01:03Speaker 2: get these people to be registered. You make sure that
- 1:01:07Speaker 2: they're properly trained in the usage of that e-bike because
- 1:01:10Speaker 2: it is a vehicle.
- 1:01:10Speaker 4: It could go.
- 1:01:11Speaker 2: Sometimes 40 miles an hour. I have no idea how
- 1:01:15Speaker 2: fast she was going at that point. But the city council,
- 1:01:19Speaker 2: through Julie Menon, the city council president, Speaker promised that
- 1:01:23Speaker 2: they would crack down on this and then backed off
- 1:01:25Speaker 2: because they don't want to say this, but I'll say it.
- 1:01:29Speaker 2: Most of these e-bike delivery people are illegals, so they
- 1:01:33Speaker 2: don't want a registration of illegals where they think that
- 1:01:37Speaker 2: maybe ICE will somehow sweep in, get that list, and
- 1:01:41Speaker 2: then start arresting every e-bike delivery person in New York City,
- 1:01:44Speaker 2: which is ridiculous. So you think New Jersey has done
- 1:01:47Speaker 2: the right thing, and that's a blue sheet. Yeah, what
- 1:01:49Speaker 2: they could.
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: Do is the exact same thing that they do with
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: the sanctuary city policies, which I hate. When they make
- 1:01:55Speaker 1: an arrest, you still see the name, but you don't
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: see the legality of them being here. You don't see
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: their immigration status. They're not even allowed to report that
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: to the national database, what their origin is. And so
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: they could do it and just take the names and
- 1:02:11Speaker 1: leave all of that other stuff out. That's another way
- 1:02:14Speaker 1: of doing it. I agree with you a thousand percent.
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: I agree with you that it is just the wild
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: west out there when it comes to bikes.
- 1:02:22Speaker 4: I'll tell you a story.
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: I was leaving the other day, just the other day,
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: and I was going through a green light and I
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: looked away for a second and I looked up and
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: right in front of me was an e-bike. He was
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: shooting across. He was going against a red light the
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: wrong way. And I could have hit him. I mean,
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: I could have hit him at that moment. I'm not
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: saying that this woman did anything wrong. I have no
- 1:02:43Speaker 1: idea if she did and God bless her. I've I'm
- 1:02:46Speaker 1: a top. It's horrifying that she died. I all think so.
- 1:02:49Speaker 1: Think it's horrifying for the dump truck driver if it's
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: true that he really didn't see her and he didn't
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: know what happened. So I'm sure that, you know, her
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: life's over. His life is going to change forever. But
- 1:03:01Speaker 1: something has to happen. Well, let me tell you what
- 1:03:03Speaker 1: probably will happen today. So on Mondami, we'll have a
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: press conference and say, you see 34th Street East and West?
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: They need to have designated bike lanes going both ways.
- 1:03:12Speaker 1: So there goes another car lane, another truck lane.
- 1:03:16Speaker 4: You know what?
- 1:03:17Speaker 1: I will agree with that, that if you're going to
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: have bike lanes all over the city, you should have
- 1:03:21Speaker 1: them everywhere. I'll agree with that. But that's not the
- 1:03:24Speaker 1: biggest problem. That's not the biggest. Do you know 20
- 1:03:27Speaker 1: people on bikes and e-bikes have died this year? It
- 1:03:30Speaker 1: was seven last year. It's just gotten worse.
- 1:03:33Speaker 4: Well, they're racing.
- 1:03:35Speaker 2: And you see, not only that, some of these delivery
- 1:03:37Speaker 2: guys have helmets on like they're ready to go to
- 1:03:39Speaker 2: the front lines and start shooting an AK-47. You ever
- 1:03:41Speaker 2: seen what the helmets are?
- 1:03:43Speaker 1: I have seen that. But I've also seen them without
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: the helmets. They don't wear any helmet at all. They
- 1:03:48Speaker 1: don't take any safety precautions. How many times– I would
- 1:03:52Speaker 1: love to know because I know a couple have been killed–
- 1:03:55Speaker 1: I'd love to know how many pedestrians have been hit
- 1:03:57Speaker 1: by these bikes.
- 1:03:58Speaker 7: Oh, my God.
- 1:03:59Speaker 4: So many.
- 1:04:00Speaker 2: Not only killed, but severely injured. And by the way,
- 1:04:03Speaker 2: we have traffic control agents. You know, they used to
- 1:04:05Speaker 2: be called the Brownies. They write you up. If you're
- 1:04:08Speaker 2: an inch across the box, if you're in a car,
- 1:04:10Speaker 2: they don't stop any of these guys or gals. They've
- 1:04:13Speaker 2: been told by City Hall, you don't stop them. You
- 1:04:16Speaker 2: don't write them up. You don't bring it to the
- 1:04:19Speaker 2: attention of a police officer in case they get mouthy
- 1:04:23Speaker 2: with you. So you say to yourself, so you want
- 1:04:25Speaker 2: this to continue like this without any regulation? It's a
- 1:04:29Speaker 2: completely unregulated business, and the delivery industries are making money
- 1:04:34Speaker 2: hand over fist.
- 1:04:35Speaker 1: And if it's as you said, and I have no
- 1:04:38Speaker 1: reason to doubt that it's not, if it is because
- 1:04:41Speaker 1: of their immigration status that they're not releasing these names,
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: they don't want to give out licenses, they don't want
- 1:04:47Speaker 1: to do too much to hurt their way of life
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: and the way they make a salary.
- 1:04:52Speaker 4: Shame on them.
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: Shame on them, because once again, just like with the crime,
- 1:04:57Speaker 1: they're causing death and destruction on the road and mayhem
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: on the road by not taking care of this problem.
- 1:05:02Speaker 2: Well, some good news. Natalie Migliore will be back with
- 1:05:05Speaker 2: us tomorrow. Same time, same place as she is. Five
- 1:05:09Speaker 2: days a week, Monday through Friday. But up next, all
- 1:05:13Speaker 2: eyes are on Plymouth, Massachusetts, as the Lindsay Clancy case.
- 1:05:19Speaker 4: They regroup.
- 1:05:20Speaker 2: They find out what the prosecutor wants to do. if
- 1:05:23Speaker 2: he wants to re-prosecute this case. But first, let's get
- 1:05:27Speaker 2: the news at 8 o'clock. Well, everybody's back in.
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: The courtroom today in front of a judge for a
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: hearing to decide if there's going to be a retrial
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: of Lindsay Clancy. Everybody, every single legal analyst that you've
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: heard so far has said there's definitely going to be
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: a retrial. The only question is going to be, are
- 1:05:49Speaker 1: they still going to go to first-degree murder without a chance?
- 1:05:54Speaker 1: of any, of ever getting out. That's the only question
- 1:05:57Speaker 1: apparently at this point. According to the legal analysts, now
- 1:06:00Speaker 1: they may shock us. It may turn out to be otherwise,
- 1:06:03Speaker 1: but that sounds like that's what's going to happen. And
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: we'll talk about that tomorrow. But right now, the holdout juror,
- 1:06:12Speaker 1: the one that caused a mistrial, Michael Desronneville, spoke last
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: night to Fox News and Sean Hannity.
- 1:06:21Speaker 4: I know the whole focus has been on me.
- 1:06:24Speaker 20: But we want to reel everything back and put the
- 1:06:27Speaker 20: focus on the three angels that's at hand. The ones
- 1:06:30Speaker 20: that can't speak for themselves, the ones that can't defend themselves,
- 1:06:35Speaker 20: and the ones that can't fight the battles.
- 1:06:38Speaker 4: And those are Cora, Dawson, and Callan. Amen to that.
- 1:06:43Speaker 1: My God. Thank God that guy was in the jury room.
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: I will tell you that there's going to be a
- 1:06:51Speaker 1: retrial and it's going to be odd if they find
- 1:06:54Speaker 1: out that they get the same type of jurors and
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: it's going to be odd if all of the sudden
- 1:07:00Speaker 1: we get the same verdict. I don't think that's ever
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: going to happen. It sounds like when you hear from
- 1:07:04Speaker 1: the holdout juror that there was a group of real
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: feminist women who put who came after him and he said,
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: every time I tried to talk, they'd cut me off.
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: It was, it was an argument. Nobody was hearing each
- 1:07:18Speaker 1: other out and they were upset with them. He also said,
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: and his attorney said that everything that has been said
- 1:07:25Speaker 1: about him since then is a lie that he never
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: had reasonable doubt. He was positive from the beginning that
- 1:07:35Speaker 1: she should be sentenced to first degree murder because she
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: killed three children.
- 1:07:40Speaker 4: Apparently, He was the.
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: Only one in that jury room that was thinking about
- 1:07:47Speaker 1: the three kids. The rest of them thought that this
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: was going to be a movement, that now we're going
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: to do postpartum care and make this a national movement
- 1:07:58Speaker 1: to make sure that no women, no women are ever
- 1:08:02Speaker 1: charged with a crime like this again ever. especially if
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: they've gone through some type of postpartum psychosis.
- 1:08:09Speaker 4: It was bizarre.
- 1:08:10Speaker 1: I'll tell you one other thing. I heard an interview
- 1:08:14Speaker 1: with his attorney. Also, it was on Fox News. And
- 1:08:17Speaker 1: it sounds to me like there is going to be
- 1:08:20Speaker 1: a lawsuit against the defense attorney, Reddington, because anything he
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: said in court, that's okay. Anything he said in court
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: about the holdout juror is fine. That's protected. But he
- 1:08:33Speaker 1: went on TV and attacked the holdout juror. He went
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: out in front of the courthouse and attacked the courthouse juror.
- 1:08:41Speaker 1: So listen to his attorney and you can tell me
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: if you think that there's a lawsuit coming.
- 1:08:46Speaker 21: Kevin Reddington is just upset that he lost out on
- 1:08:50Speaker 21: his legacy moment. He was one vote away from winning
- 1:08:55Speaker 21: a trial that would have been the capstone of his
- 1:08:58Speaker 21: career and he didn't get it.
- 1:09:00Speaker 9: It.
- 1:09:01Speaker 21: And he lost his mind because of it.
- 1:09:04Speaker 1: That's attorney Edward Poltsnick, who is now representing the holdout
- 1:09:09Speaker 1: jury in a civil action, Curtis.
- 1:09:12Speaker 2: Well, he can knock himself out. He's going to sue Reddington.
- 1:09:15Speaker 2: I think Reddington secretly wants another trial.
- 1:09:18Speaker 4: I mean, look at him.
- 1:09:19Speaker 2: He's internationally prominent. He was the likable attorney, an older guy.
- 1:09:25Speaker 2: Everybody came to him. All the reporters loved him. All
- 1:09:29Speaker 2: the ladies in pink who were outside supporting his client,
- 1:09:35Speaker 2: they loved him. Even though he'll say, I don't want
- 1:09:39Speaker 2: this to go forward. You know, secretly, Reddington wants this
- 1:09:42Speaker 2: to go forward because trial number two, he's in the spotlight,
- 1:09:44Speaker 2: just like all the TV analysts. Oh, they want it desperately.
- 1:09:48Speaker 2: That's That's at least three months in which you're going
- 1:09:51Speaker 2: to be getting accommodations in Plymouth Rock and the networks
- 1:09:55Speaker 2: want it and everybody wants it. But I got to
- 1:09:57Speaker 2: think if I'm the prosecutor and I've heard more of
- 1:10:02Speaker 2: what the husband actually texted and put on social networking
- 1:10:07Speaker 2: about his wife at the time, he's going to be
- 1:10:11Speaker 2: Reddington's primary witness.
- 1:10:15Speaker 4: And they're going to have a hung jury again. It's
- 1:10:16Speaker 4: just no way. I don't agree with you. They're not
- 1:10:18Speaker 4: going to get 12 people who agree.
- 1:10:20Speaker 7: I do.
- 1:10:21Speaker 4: I think so. I think they're going to get 12 people.
- 1:10:22Speaker 4: I think they're going to go after second degree and
- 1:10:24Speaker 4: they're going to get it. So we'll see. I mean,
- 1:10:26Speaker 4: neither of us know. We'll both find out together.
- 1:10:28Speaker 2: If they want to waste their money in Massachusetts and
- 1:10:31Speaker 2: in the county there, if they want to waste their money,
- 1:10:33Speaker 2: go ahead.
- 1:10:34Speaker 4: But it's going to be a hung jury. It's not.
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: And there's no question they're going to go after this again.
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: I mean— And I'm only going from what do I know?
- 1:10:42Speaker 1: I'm not an attorney, but I'm going from every single
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: legal expert and every attorney that they talk to about
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: this says, of course, the prosecution is going to retry this.
- 1:10:51Speaker 1: Of course, they're going to go after it again. So
- 1:10:53Speaker 1: we'll see if they're all wrong and if I'm wrong.
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: But I got a feeling you're going to hear today
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: they want to retry this. And I think they're going
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: to be much more careful about jury selection next time around.
- 1:11:05Speaker 7: Right.
- 1:11:06Speaker 2: But remember, a DA is also an elected official unless
- 1:11:09Speaker 2: they get appointed by the governor there in the Commonwealth
- 1:11:11Speaker 2: like DAs do in New Jersey.
- 1:11:13Speaker 4: I'm not sure of that.
- 1:11:14Speaker 2: But if, in fact, they stand for election, I don't
- 1:11:18Speaker 2: think the majority of the people in that county want
- 1:11:20Speaker 2: this to go to trial again.
- 1:11:22Speaker 4: I really don't. So doesn't matter. We'll see.
- 1:11:25Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't matter. I mean, justice is what matters.
- 1:11:28Speaker 1: But it's amazing here. We're even conversing about it now. And,
- 1:11:32Speaker 1: you know, in most cases, we talk about the victim
- 1:11:34Speaker 1: almost all the time. The victim, the victim, the victim.
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: We have three victims, three innocent children that are killed.
- 1:11:41Speaker 1: Nobody talks about them. And that's, to me, that's the
- 1:11:44Speaker 1: only thing I'm thinking about, that they should get some
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: type of semblance of justice.
- 1:11:48Speaker 2: The most powerful witness for the defense is the husband
- 1:11:54Speaker 2: who defends her. In ways that we didn't even know
- 1:11:57Speaker 2: originally in his initial testimony.
- 1:12:00Speaker 4: So much more has come out. To a jury? Yes.
- 1:12:04Speaker 4: Does that matter?
- 1:12:04Speaker 1: So they're going to think about her state of mind
- 1:12:08Speaker 1: and not the fact that we have three small dead
- 1:12:10Speaker 1: bodies and that they were strangled. and that she planned
- 1:12:14Speaker 1: the whole thing and plotted the whole thing. Well, I'll
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: tell you what, then we're lost as a society because
- 1:12:19Speaker 1: that woman should be in jail for the rest of
- 1:12:22Speaker 1: her life. And now you have copycats from across the
- 1:12:25Speaker 1: country that think they're going to be just like Lindsay Clancy.
- 1:12:28Speaker 1: You got a woman outside of Chicago that hung her child,
- 1:12:32Speaker 1: had him hanging from the rafters, dying. See what that starts?
- 1:12:35Speaker 1: See what this kind of talk starts? It's going to
- 1:12:38Speaker 1: start a national movement of sick, crazy mothers saying, who
- 1:12:42Speaker 1: now already started. I didn't see that coming, but oh
- 1:12:45Speaker 1: my God, she was obsessed with this case.
- 1:12:48Speaker 2: But I tell you, after that 60 minutes interview with
- 1:12:50Speaker 2: the husband and his new wife, it's clear.
- 1:12:53Speaker 4: If I'm Reddington, wow.
- 1:12:56Speaker 2: He didn't talk like that when he was first on
- 1:12:59Speaker 2: the witness stand. Remember, he was the prosecution first and
- 1:13:03Speaker 2: primary witness. If the prosecution doesn't call him, Reddington will
- 1:13:08Speaker 2: certainly call him.
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: No, I agree with you, but that's one witness in
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: a weeks-long case, and we do have so much more.
- 1:13:15Speaker 4: Well, I think it'll take weeks and weeks and weeks.
- 1:13:16Speaker 1: That's what I just said, weeks-long case. But it can't
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: be the only thing they hang their hat on. As
- 1:13:23Speaker 1: a matter of fact, I think he's all but insignificant
- 1:13:27Speaker 1: except for the details he can give about when he
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: was told to leave the house and when he came
- 1:13:31Speaker 1: back in the house and when he found the children.
- 1:13:33Speaker 4: All the other stuff?
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: You know, it's great that he still loves his wife.
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: It's great that he doesn't want her to go to
- 1:13:38Speaker 1: jail forever. That's a person that was a loving husband
- 1:13:42Speaker 1: and still has feelings for her.
- 1:13:44Speaker 4: That's irrelevant. It's all irrelevant.
- 1:13:46Speaker 1: What's relevant is that she plotted and planned to kill
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: three children and that she looked at them in the
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: face while she strangled them. And so I don't think
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: there's any forgiveness for that.
- 1:13:59Speaker 4: I don't. I understand.
- 1:14:01Speaker 2: I respect that. But I also know there's jury nullification.
- 1:14:05Speaker 2: You're going to have even more demonstrators outside of that courthouse.
- 1:14:09Speaker 2: I'm sure the prosecutor may have thought about sequestering a
- 1:14:13Speaker 2: jury if he decides to go for a second prosecution. Absolutely, absolutely.
- 1:14:16Speaker 2: But it's a small town. It's a small county. Everybody
- 1:14:19Speaker 2: knows one another. So it's going to be extraordinarily difficult,
- 1:14:25Speaker 2: maybe a change of venue. But the prosecutor probably will
- 1:14:28Speaker 2: not want to give up his venue. But they've done
- 1:14:30Speaker 2: that before in high-profile cases. Change the venue.
- 1:14:33Speaker 4: Get it out of there. God, I hope you're wrong.
- 1:14:36Speaker 1: I hope you're wrong because we're lost as a society
- 1:14:39Speaker 1: if we let somebody strangle three children and there's no
- 1:14:41Speaker 1: punishment to be given for that, that we don't consider
- 1:14:45Speaker 1: that murder because she's going through some postpartum issues. Which,
- 1:14:49Speaker 1: by the way, if she was going through postpartum issues,
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: and I'll bring this up again, how did she plot
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: and plan that? I mean, how was she so evil
- 1:14:59Speaker 1: that she could plan how she could get her husband
- 1:15:01Speaker 1: out of the house to have... elastic strings that she
- 1:15:06Speaker 1: can uh strangle every one of them individually and chase
- 1:15:11Speaker 1: after the one to get them see they're the only
- 1:15:14Speaker 1: facts that i think that are relevant those facts that
- 1:15:16Speaker 1: i'm laying out now are the only facts that are
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: relevant everything else is just talk well it's.
- 1:15:21Speaker 2: The way it's presented also i think the prosecutor was
- 1:15:23Speaker 2: a little too hard uh a little too uh the
- 1:15:27Speaker 2: demeanor was uh no sympathy, no empathy, and Reddington basically dominated.
- 1:15:34Speaker 2: So if you're going to re-prosecute this, I realize you'll
- 1:15:37Speaker 2: probably use the same assistant district attorney, the woman, I
- 1:15:40Speaker 2: forget her name, but I think she's got to approach
- 1:15:43Speaker 2: it a little differently if she's going to try to
- 1:15:45Speaker 2: convince the jury to come to a different conclusion.
- 1:15:48Speaker 1: Yeah, I think this jury was an aberration. I don't
- 1:15:53Speaker 1: think you're going to get a jury like that again
- 1:15:55Speaker 1: where there's a group of women who decided together that
- 1:15:59Speaker 1: the three children didn't matter, that what was more important
- 1:16:03Speaker 1: was a national statement to be made. That's going to
- 1:16:05Speaker 1: be extraordinary rare, and I hope it doesn't happen again.
- 1:16:08Speaker 1: Maybe I just have a belief in justice that doesn't
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: exist anymore.
- 1:16:13Speaker 2: It was the majority women, but there's also two men
- 1:16:15Speaker 2: who joined them.
- 1:16:17Speaker 1: Right, who were berated into it, as we found out,
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: who were talked into it. They both talked.
- 1:16:21Speaker 2: The holdout juror said, yes, we haven't heard from the
- 1:16:25Speaker 2: other two who said we were.
- 1:16:26Speaker 7: Berated into it.
- 1:16:26Speaker 4: Well, we heard from one of them. Yeah, we did.
- 1:16:27Speaker 4: He did an interview.
- 1:16:29Speaker 1: So we heard from at least one of them, and
- 1:16:30Speaker 1: he said that at first he was going to convict,
- 1:16:33Speaker 1: and he was talked out of it.
- 1:16:34Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 1:16:35Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I mean, it would make me sick to
- 1:16:39Speaker 1: my stomach if she doesn't get convicted.
- 1:16:41Speaker 2: Well, my prediction is the DA will not seek a
- 1:16:45Speaker 2: second trial and will move for a plea bargain situation
- 1:16:49Speaker 2: with Reddington on behalf of his client.
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: Even though 100% of legal analysts, people that are actual attorneys,
- 1:16:54Speaker 1: say it's going to happen.
- 1:16:55Speaker 4: They've already lit the candles. They want that three-month, four-month
- 1:16:59Speaker 4: FaceTime on TV. They don't want to be wrong either.
- 1:17:02Speaker 4: By the way, if you watched Saved.
- 1:17:04Speaker 1: By the Bell when you were growing up, or your
- 1:17:06Speaker 1: kids do, you're going to know the principal. He was
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: a main character, and unfortunately, he's passed away. We're going
- 1:17:14Speaker 1: to talk about that when we come back, plus a
- 1:17:16Speaker 1: chance to see Stevie Wonder next. Well, if you're of
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: a certain age, and I guess that would be... in
- 1:17:24Speaker 1: your early forties and your thirties, then you are going
- 1:17:28Speaker 1: to remember this theme song to saved by the bell,
- 1:17:32Speaker 1: which went on the air in the early nineties. And
- 1:17:35Speaker 1: there was remakes and replays and reruns. And it lasted
- 1:17:40Speaker 1: all the way to 2021. So saved by the bell
- 1:17:45Speaker 1: was around for generation after generation after generation. And there
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: is some, there's some bad news. Now, David, Dennis Haskins,
- 1:17:55Speaker 1: Dennis Haskins, who used to play Mr.
- 1:17:59Speaker 4: Belding.
- 1:17:59Speaker 1: Remember him? He was the principal. He was the guy
- 1:18:02Speaker 1: that was always going, hey, hey, hey, hey, what's going
- 1:18:04Speaker 1: on here? Well, he's died at the age of 75.
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: So here's his famous line.
- 1:18:11Speaker 4: Hey, hey, what is going on here? There you go.
- 1:18:14Speaker 4: Every episode he said that.
- 1:18:16Speaker 2: I'm principal of Bayside High School in the Palisades. By
- 1:18:19Speaker 2: the way, that high school burnt down in the fires
- 1:18:21Speaker 2: on the Palisades. The one person that I remember from
- 1:18:26Speaker 2: that show, Mario Lopez.
- 1:18:30Speaker 4: He's like Glenn Slice. Why do you have against Mario Lopez?
- 1:18:34Speaker 4: Everybody loves him. I hate him. Oh, there you go.
- 1:18:36Speaker 4: But the other thing is, this.
- 1:18:38Speaker 2: Gives me a sort of entree to discuss Palisades fire,
- 1:18:42Speaker 2: you know, Bass for mayor.
- 1:18:44Speaker 4: Guess who's ahead of her in the polls?
- 1:18:46Speaker 2: The socialists, we may end up having a socialist mayor
- 1:18:50Speaker 2: of Los Angeles. We have one in Chicago, Boston, New York.
- 1:18:54Speaker 2: We have one now in D.C. My God, they're winning
- 1:18:57Speaker 2: all the big cities.
- 1:18:58Speaker 4: To the socialists. Well, yeah, we're lost. And it's because
- 1:19:01Speaker 4: of that Palisades fire. We're lost.
- 1:19:04Speaker 22: Does anybody remember when Mayor Bloomberg gave us those bike lanes?
- 1:19:10Speaker 22: It wasn't for e-bikes. It was so we could all
- 1:19:13Speaker 22: pedal to work and be very healthy New Yorkers. How
- 1:19:17Speaker 22: many people do you see pedaling a bike in those lanes?
- 1:19:21Speaker 1: Yeah, they're all delivery workers and they're all not here legally,
- 1:19:24Speaker 1: it looks like.
- 1:19:25Speaker 2: And the next time you see them speeding by, notice
- 1:19:28Speaker 2: how many of them have army helmets on because they're
- 1:19:31Speaker 2: going 40 miles an hour and they know they're going
- 1:19:33Speaker 2: to crash. Who wears an army helmet other than bikers
- 1:19:37Speaker 2: on motorcycles, right? Think about that.
- 1:19:40Speaker 4: No, I agree with you.
- 1:19:41Speaker 1: Let's now get a talk back about the debate in
- 1:19:45Speaker 1: New York 17, the House race between Congressman Mike Lawler
- 1:19:48Speaker 1: and the Democratic challenger.
- 1:19:50Speaker 4: Kate Connolly.
- 1:19:52Speaker 10: Just so you guys know, the Mike Lawler-Kate Connolly debate
- 1:19:56Speaker 10: is on YouTube, on the News 12 YouTube page, and
- 1:20:00Speaker 10: after watching it, this lifelong Republican is glad he doesn't
- 1:20:05Speaker 10: live in that district, because after listening to Mike Lawler,
- 1:20:08Speaker 10: there is not a chance in heck I would vote
- 1:20:11Speaker 10: for him. I wouldn't trust him to pick a dog
- 1:20:14Speaker 10: turd up off the carpet in my living room.
- 1:20:16Speaker 1: This political message brought to you by the Democratic National Committee.
- 1:20:21Speaker 2: Knowing Mike Lawler for many, many years, he does have
- 1:20:24Speaker 2: that effect on some people because he's like, he's constant.
- 1:20:28Speaker 4: He's constant. You know, trying to get contribution. He's up.
- 1:20:33Speaker 4: I think he's very smart.
- 1:20:35Speaker 23: I just have a question for everybody on the air.
- 1:20:38Speaker 23: I'm divided on this, on this issue about the lady
- 1:20:42Speaker 23: that killed her children.
- 1:20:44Speaker 4: But let's just, just one question.
- 1:20:46Speaker 23: Do you think that somebody in their right mind would
- 1:20:50Speaker 23: kill their children? There's got to be something mentally wrong
- 1:20:54Speaker 23: with that person for them to do that.
- 1:20:56Speaker 7: That's all I got to say.
- 1:20:58Speaker 1: Oh, so if that's the case, if everybody that kills
- 1:21:01Speaker 1: their children is mentally ill, then I guess they all
- 1:21:05Speaker 1: go free. And so we won't really have a justice
- 1:21:08Speaker 1: system anymore. We'll just decide because we're all medical doctors. That, man,
- 1:21:13Speaker 1: if you killed your child, then you have to be
- 1:21:16Speaker 1: insane because you wouldn't have done that in the first place.
- 1:21:19Speaker 1: By the way, that could be a defense for many crimes,
- 1:21:21Speaker 1: a whole lot of crimes. I think that would more
- 1:21:24Speaker 1: apply to the mother. than the father or the boyfriend.
- 1:21:27Speaker 4: Oh, really? So it only is for women?
- 1:21:29Speaker 2: No, I'm just saying I think it's very difficult for
- 1:21:31Speaker 2: society to understand how a mother would kill her own
- 1:21:35Speaker 2: children if she weren't mentally ill.
- 1:21:38Speaker 1: Right, and she should be put away forever for that.
- 1:21:40Speaker 9: There can't be a plea bargain on the Clancy case
- 1:21:44Speaker 9: unless she admits criminal liability. Her whole defense is insanity.
- 1:21:49Speaker 9: You can't plea bargain with an insane person. They have
- 1:21:51Speaker 9: to allocute that they knew what they were doing was wrong.
- 1:21:55Speaker 9: which is the standard for insanity. So she can't even
- 1:21:58Speaker 9: take a plea to manslaughter. She wants to go to
- 1:22:00Speaker 9: a psychiatric hospital, and it looks like that's off the table.
- 1:22:05Speaker 4: It should be.
- 1:22:06Speaker 1: That is an excellent point. I didn't think of that.
- 1:22:09Speaker 1: How can she make a plea if she's insane?
- 1:22:12Speaker 14: Remember, Larry, they say at 15 cups of coffee, you
- 1:22:15Speaker 14: will poop out Juan Valdez.
- 1:22:18Speaker 4: Be careful. We're all worried for you, Larry.
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: We're all worried for you.
- 1:22:23Speaker 4: Fifteen cups of coffee a day, you drink caffeinated. My, oh, no, my.
- 1:22:28Speaker 1: Now, Daria Albinger with the 830 News.
- 1:22:30Speaker 4: Daria.
- 1:22:31Speaker 3: Mostly cloudy, a little warmer today. We'll see a high
- 1:22:34Speaker 3: of 69 degrees. The New York City Council will hear
- 1:22:37Speaker 3: from tech companies next week about the potential dangers of
- 1:22:42Speaker 3: artificial intelligence.
- 1:22:43Speaker 12: Council Speaker Julie Menon says representatives from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google,
- 1:22:47Speaker 12: and Meta will go before the entire city council next Monday.
- 1:22:50Speaker 12: This is for a hearing involving potential risks posed by
- 1:22:53Speaker 12: developing artificial intelligence.
- 1:22:56Speaker 15: Some of the very people developing the world's most powerful
- 1:22:59Speaker 15: AI systems are warning that without adequate safeguards, the risk
- 1:23:04Speaker 15: could be existential.
- 1:23:06Speaker 12: Elon Musk's SpaceX AI has not responded to a request
- 1:23:09Speaker 12: to appear, so men initiate a subpoena demanding a representative
- 1:23:12Speaker 12: from the company show up.
- 1:23:14Speaker 4: I'm Scott Pringle, WOR News.
- 1:23:15Speaker 3: Some of those same tech leaders will be at the
- 1:23:17Speaker 3: White House today for a summit on AI. Police say
- 1:23:20Speaker 3: a man was killed on a subway platform in Brooklyn
- 1:23:23Speaker 3: last night when his backpack got stuck in an A-train
- 1:23:27Speaker 3: door as it was closing. It dragged him along the
- 1:23:29Speaker 3: platform until he hit a pole. The MTA is looking in.
- 1:23:32Speaker 7: It, too.
- 1:23:33Speaker 3: SpaceX made history yesterday, launching the world's largest and most
- 1:23:38Speaker 3: powerful rocket and then bringing it back to Earth.
- 1:23:40Speaker 24: Not everything went as planned. Several engines malfunctioning and SpaceX
- 1:23:44Speaker 24: cutting the mission meant to last 10 hours, short, ending
- 1:23:47Speaker 24: after three hours. Explosive splashdown north of Hawaii did go
- 1:23:52Speaker 24: as planned, just hours earlier than expected. NASA is hoping
- 1:23:58Speaker 24: that a version of Starship is ready by next year
- 1:24:01Speaker 24: for the Artemis 3 mission with the goal of using
- 1:24:03Speaker 24: it to land on the moon with Artemis 4 in 2028.
- 1:24:08Speaker 3: ABC's Gio Benitez. It is a big night in sports
- 1:24:11Speaker 3: and it starts with game one of the Yankees wildcard

- 1:24:16Speaker 3: round in the WNBA playoffs. The Liberty can knock out
- 1:24:19Speaker 3: top-ranked Minnesota tonight. And there's also the first regular season

- 1:25:38Speaker 1: Very funny show on the Fox News channel. And Jimmy,
- 1:25:41Speaker 1: I want to start off by talking about this event
- 1:25:43Speaker 1: you have coming up. You are going to be at
- 1:25:47Speaker 1: the Cucina Calandra in Fairfield, New Jersey on October 28th.
- 1:25:52Speaker 1: So you get a dinner buffet, you get the comedy show,
- 1:25:56Speaker 1: and then there is going to be a meet and
- 1:25:59Speaker 1: greet afterwards. See, it's not just like you show up
- 1:26:02Speaker 1: with your entourage, do a quick performance and leave. You
- 1:26:06Speaker 1: actually hang out for a while.
- 1:26:09Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 1:26:09Speaker 16: And in this case, I don't have an entourage. I
- 1:26:12Speaker 16: have a wardrobe team trying to keep me away from
- 1:26:15Speaker 16: the cannolis.
- 1:26:17Speaker 1: Good luck.
- 1:26:19Speaker 16: It's a totally different thing. Like, I'll actually be performing
- 1:26:23Speaker 16: with a shock collar on. Because everyone, including Natalie, keeps
- 1:26:27Speaker 16: sending me pictures of the bread.
- 1:26:29Speaker 7: This weird stink.
- 1:26:32Speaker 16: Natalie sends bread the way like Anthony.
- 1:26:34Speaker 7: Weiner used to text women pictures of other things.
- 1:26:39Speaker 4: She sends bread pics?
- 1:26:40Speaker 7: She did. She texted me like, I don't know, like
- 1:26:44Speaker 7: five in the morning.
- 1:26:45Speaker 16: I'm not kidding. And she's like, what do you think
- 1:26:47Speaker 16: of this?
- 1:26:47Speaker 7: And I'm like, what's happening to you? Why are you
- 1:26:50Speaker 7: in a towel?
- 1:26:51Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 1:26:54Speaker 1: Let me let people know how they can get tickets
- 1:26:57Speaker 1: to this. You go to 710WOR. com slash Jimmy. It's going
- 1:27:00Speaker 1: to sell out fast. Go to 710WOR. com slash Jimmy.
- 1:27:05Speaker 4: What's the name of this place, Larry, again? It is
- 1:27:08Speaker 4: Cucina Calandra.
- 1:27:09Speaker 2: So I'm not going to go there sitting looking at
- 1:27:12Speaker 2: cast characters from The Sopranos waiting for Jimmy.
- 1:27:15Speaker 4: You won't fail me failure, will it? Probably. No, hold on.
- 1:27:20Speaker 16: Let me clear that up because I've paid off all
- 1:27:23Speaker 16: of those people. I'm in a good place in my career.
- 1:27:27Speaker 7: Can I tell you this?
- 1:27:28Speaker 16: Like when I'm walking down the street now and people.
- 1:27:31Speaker 7: Go, hey, you Jimmy Fela, I can actually say yes.
- 1:27:34Speaker 7: Whereas like five years ago, I would just start running immediately.
- 1:27:39Speaker 4: There was no follow-up question.
- 1:27:41Speaker 21: I would just go.
- 1:27:42Speaker 7: So yeah, this is a good place for me.
- 1:27:44Speaker 1: Because of possible charges or your credit?
- 1:27:49Speaker 7: My cab is good. Everything's fine.
- 1:27:52Speaker 16: Again, I just have to stop this chick who keeps
- 1:27:54Speaker 16: stalking me with the bread picks.
- 1:27:56Speaker 7: If I can get her under control, I got a shot.
- 1:27:59Speaker 2: All right, now, Jimmy, we saw the MTV Video Awards.
- 1:28:03Speaker 2: They made up like 10,000 new awards, especially for Taylor Swift.
- 1:28:07Speaker 2: What did you make of the fact that she dropped
- 1:28:09Speaker 2: four songs, brand-new songs, and one of them is a
- 1:28:13Speaker 2: diss of Joe Jonas? This woman won't give it up
- 1:28:16Speaker 2: with those 12 ex-boyfriends. She won't be happy till they're dead.
- 1:28:23Speaker 7: You know who's got to be watching that nervously?
- 1:28:25Speaker 16: Travis Kelsey. You know, because this, everybody's been saying this forever.
- 1:28:30Speaker 16: This doesn't end good for him because they signed a prenup.
- 1:28:33Speaker 16: So she's going to write the greatest breakup album of
- 1:28:36Speaker 16: all time and he's not even going to get a
- 1:28:37Speaker 16: royalty and he will have been responsible.
- 1:28:40Speaker 7: For like 10 of the 12 tracks, you know? She
- 1:28:42Speaker 7: doesn't let it go, man. She does not let it go.
- 1:28:45Speaker 1: I want to find out from you, do you ever
- 1:28:48Speaker 1: watch the Academy Awards or the VMAs or any of
- 1:28:52Speaker 1: those award shows? Because when I watch, I don't know
- 1:28:57Speaker 1: the movies. I don't know half the acts. They've lost me.
- 1:29:02Speaker 16: Well, that was the best part the other night of
- 1:29:04Speaker 16: the Madonna performance is you couldn't hear the music because
- 1:29:07Speaker 16: everybody was Googling her.
- 1:29:09Speaker 4: You know, all the young kids in the audience, you
- 1:29:11Speaker 4: could hear.
- 1:29:11Speaker 16: Them typing on their phones and their iPads like, You know,
- 1:29:16Speaker 16: someone's grandma just ran.
- 1:29:17Speaker 7: Onto the stage and they were confused.
- 1:29:21Speaker 2: I mean, what did you make of that, Jimmy? To me,
- 1:29:24Speaker 2: you know, they were like gushing. And I looked at
- 1:29:27Speaker 2: her like, man, she can't even walk straight without falling
- 1:29:31Speaker 2: to a side. She can't even remember what award that
- 1:29:33Speaker 2: they made up to give to her. I thought it
- 1:29:36Speaker 2: was like, man, low budget.
- 1:29:38Speaker 16: It was that, yeah, she was so out of it
- 1:29:41Speaker 16: during that last acceptance speech that that Jill Biden wants
- 1:29:44Speaker 16: her to serve four more years in office.
- 1:29:46Speaker 4: That's when I knew it was bad.
- 1:29:49Speaker 16: She started rambling and Jill just cut her off like, Madonna,
- 1:29:53Speaker 16: you did it, four more years.
- 1:29:56Speaker 7: But you know what happened really quickly?
- 1:29:58Speaker 16: They definitely, definitely, okay, gave her all of those awards
- 1:30:03Speaker 16: as a way of trying to entice people our age
- 1:30:06Speaker 16: to watch the show. Because that is, you know, they
- 1:30:09Speaker 16: threw it on CBS. The show's never been on CBS
- 1:30:12Speaker 16: because MTV used to be a channel. And they don't
- 1:30:15Speaker 16: have the channel anymore. So they went with it on network.
- 1:30:18Speaker 16: And they definitely tried to cater to a network audience
- 1:30:21Speaker 16: by having more recognizable people like Madonna and Snoop Dogg
- 1:30:24Speaker 16: who aren't actively burning up the charts, but they're bigger
- 1:30:28Speaker 16: holdovers from a previous generation. But it was such a
- 1:30:31Speaker 16: bad look. Like, they should have gave her, like, yeah,
- 1:30:33Speaker 16: maybe a Lifetime Achievement Award. You know, but making her
- 1:30:36Speaker 16: repetitively get back up on that stage just felt.
- 1:30:39Speaker 7: Like a life alone.
- 1:30:42Speaker 1: Hey, listen, I think you are a untapped natural resource
- 1:30:48Speaker 1: when it comes to politics on Fox News. And since
- 1:30:52Speaker 1: I think that you may be a political savant, can
- 1:30:55Speaker 1: you give some advice? If you were advising him on
- 1:31:00Speaker 1: how to fix his popularity numbers, what would you say
- 1:31:03Speaker 1: to Donald Trump?
- 1:31:06Speaker 7: To Donald Trump?
- 1:31:07Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:31:08Speaker 7: Ooh, this is the biggest challenge right now.
- 1:31:10Speaker 16: It is obviously is the war and how that's affecting
- 1:31:13Speaker 16: prices and everything like that.
- 1:31:16Speaker 4: And I don't know if there is.
- 1:31:18Speaker 7: A plan, like maybe this war is going to end
- 1:31:20Speaker 7: in two days. Prices are going to come down. It's
- 1:31:21Speaker 7: going to save the day.
- 1:31:22Speaker 16: But he needs to ditch his advisors because if people
- 1:31:25Speaker 16: are telling him this is fine. You know, because they
- 1:31:28Speaker 16: don't want to upset him behind closed doors. Like, they're
- 1:31:30Speaker 16: about to nuke the guy's whole presidency. So I would
- 1:31:33Speaker 16: tell him to.
- 1:31:34Speaker 5: Hire, I don't know, me.
- 1:31:36Speaker 7: Not me. I've got to go to.
- 1:31:37Speaker 16: Kachina Kalandra and eat the bread. But he needs to
- 1:31:40Speaker 16: hire somebody that will level with him. I mean, I
- 1:31:43Speaker 16: really think that's the biggest challenge right now.
- 1:31:46Speaker 2: Yeah, well, guess what? If you knew Donald Trump, nobody
- 1:31:50Speaker 2: gives advice to Donald Trump. He takes his own advice.
- 1:31:54Speaker 2: This is his own advice.
- 1:31:56Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:31:58Speaker 4: No, I don't doubt that.
- 1:31:59Speaker 16: That's why they didn't replace the press secretary yet. I mean,
- 1:32:02Speaker 16: Caroline Leavitt is really good at her job. But at
- 1:32:05Speaker 16: the same time, he is the press secretary. You know,
- 1:32:07Speaker 16: when you really think about it, the press secretary gives
- 1:32:09Speaker 16: you two briefings a week at 2 p.m. Trump gives
- 1:32:12Speaker 16: you seven briefings a week at 1 a.m.
- 1:32:15Speaker 4: Then you get a 5 a.m. Then you get a
- 1:32:17Speaker 4: 9 a.m.
- 1:32:17Speaker 16: Now he's doing a press conference. Look, Trump had to
- 1:32:21Speaker 16: use the bathroom.
- 1:32:21Speaker 7: Here's a seven-page tweet about CNN.
- 1:32:24Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, I just go to Fox News
- 1:32:26Speaker 1: and look at all the pictures and try to figure
- 1:32:27Speaker 1: out who's going to be the press secretary.
- 1:32:30Speaker 4: How many people is he hiring?
- 1:32:34Speaker 16: I don't think, I mean, in terms of people that
- 1:32:35Speaker 16: went up to the cabinet, yeah, Sean Duffy, Judge Jeanine, Hegseth,
- 1:32:40Speaker 16: running defense.
- 1:32:41Speaker 4: So, yes, no question there.
- 1:32:42Speaker 16: But I don't think this next press person is going
- 1:32:45Speaker 16: to be a Fox person. I think it's very interesting.
- 1:32:48Speaker 16: But I think that obviously Scott Jennings at CNN was
- 1:32:51Speaker 16: campaigning for it pretty aggressively. I feel like if he
- 1:32:54Speaker 16: was the guy, he would have got it by now.
- 1:32:57Speaker 16: So I wonder if there is somebody who is an
- 1:33:00Speaker 16: underling of Caroline that they're just kind of slow rolling
- 1:33:05Speaker 16: behind the scenes. Because Caroline, I was there at the
- 1:33:08Speaker 16: White House pretty recently, and she had some real muscle
- 1:33:11Speaker 16: in that press office. And by muscle, I mean the
- 1:33:14Speaker 16: kind of gals Trump likes, you know, girls that are
- 1:33:17Speaker 16: all a nine and a half and.
- 1:33:19Speaker 7: Are, you know, very attractive, very sharp.
- 1:33:21Speaker 16: And willing to go on offense at that podium. So
- 1:33:24Speaker 16: I wouldn't be surprised if Trump is just going to
- 1:33:27Speaker 16: take a nod from his pageant days down in Jersey,
- 1:33:30Speaker 16: and we're going to get some girl in a sash
- 1:33:32Speaker 16: who knows how to yell fake news for three hours
- 1:33:35Speaker 16: a day.
- 1:33:36Speaker 4: That's a really good call.
- 1:33:38Speaker 1: Jimmy Fallon, WOR host, 9 to Midnight, Fox Across America
- 1:33:41Speaker 1: with Jimmy Fallon, host of Fox News Saturday Night with
- 1:33:44Speaker 1: Jimmy Fallon on the Fox News channel.
- 1:33:47Speaker 4: Talk to you next week. Thanks a lot, Jimmy.
- 1:33:49Speaker 7: You're the best, guys. See you. Bye-bye.
- 1:33:51Speaker 1: Well, when we come back, Donald Trump and J.D. Vance
- 1:33:54Speaker 1: are hitting the road before the midterms. But what about
- 1:33:57Speaker 1: the next presidential election? How is J.D. Vance doing? Somebody
- 1:34:01Speaker 1: just moved ahead of him. We'll tell you who next.
- 1:34:05Speaker 1: I know everybody's focused on the midterms right now, but
- 1:34:08Speaker 1: there's a lot of polling being done on the 2028
- 1:34:12Speaker 1: political election, the presidential election. And it's fascinating so far.
- 1:34:18Speaker 1: I know it's far out. And a lot can change
- 1:34:21Speaker 1: between then and now.
- 1:34:22Speaker 4: But if you.
- 1:34:24Speaker 1: Just want to look at the horse race and where
- 1:34:26Speaker 1: people are right now, for the Democrats, it's all over
- 1:34:29Speaker 1: the place. Some of the polls say John Ossoff. Some
- 1:34:33Speaker 1: of the polls say Gavin Newsom. Pete Buttigieg is ahead
- 1:34:36Speaker 1: in a couple of the polls. Kamala Harris. They may
- 1:34:40Speaker 1: have as many as 30 people run for president. It's
- 1:34:43Speaker 1: going to be a clown car for them. But for
- 1:34:46Speaker 1: the Republicans, it's always just two names.
- 1:34:49Speaker 4: Two names, J.D. Vance, Marco Rubio. Marco Rubio, J.D. Vance.
- 1:34:54Speaker 1: And for months now, or at least several weeks now, J.D.
- 1:34:59Speaker 1: Vance has been on top, sometimes by a lot, sometimes
- 1:35:03Speaker 1: by as much as 30 points, and then Marco Rubio. Well,
- 1:35:07Speaker 1: for the first time, J.D. Vance has shown some weakness.
- 1:35:11Speaker 1: And it's a big poll. It's the Hill Poll and
- 1:35:13Speaker 1: the Emerson College Poll, where J.D. Vance has moved ahead
- 1:35:17Speaker 1: of him And it's outside the margin of error. It's
- 1:35:20Speaker 1: four points ahead of him. You mean Marco Rubio moved
- 1:35:23Speaker 1: ahead of him? Yeah, Marco Rubio moved ahead of him,
- 1:35:25Speaker 1: and it's up by four points. I will point this out, too.
- 1:35:28Speaker 1: There was a conservative caucus in Colorado where they had
- 1:35:33Speaker 1: a straw poll, and Marco Rubio won by 36 points
- 1:35:38Speaker 1: in the straw poll. So I'm just telling you that
- 1:35:42Speaker 1: now because things are starting to change. There's a few
- 1:35:46Speaker 1: chinks in the armor of J.D. Vance, and I'm not
- 1:35:48Speaker 1: sure why. I think he's done a wonderful job out
- 1:35:53Speaker 1: on the stump. Remember, he was sent out first before
- 1:35:56Speaker 1: Donald Trump to campaign for candidates, and I thought he
- 1:35:58Speaker 1: did a really nice job.
- 1:35:59Speaker 2: Well, I think the advantage to Vance is he can
- 1:36:02Speaker 2: morph into whatever he needs to be. This guy can change.
- 1:36:06Speaker 2: He's a chameleon. Remember, he was the hillbilly. Trump is
- 1:36:11Speaker 2: like Hitler. Then he went to Silicon Valley.
- 1:36:14Speaker 4: He changed.
- 1:36:15Speaker 2: He can be whatever he needs to be. Rubio is
- 1:36:17Speaker 2: always the same. He's the foreign policy expert. I don't
- 1:36:21Speaker 2: think he wants to get involved in domestic issues.
- 1:36:23Speaker 4: Now, let J.D.
- 1:36:24Speaker 2: Vance and Trump do that. And he then becomes bulletproof,
- 1:36:28Speaker 2: at least at this point, because it's the domestic issues.
- 1:36:32Speaker 2: That have to be defended. And because he's so good
- 1:36:34Speaker 2: at foreign policy, he doesn't have to swim in those waters.
- 1:36:38Speaker 2: So he just looks better all the time.
- 1:36:40Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:36:40Speaker 1: And how wonderful would it be for the Republicans to
- 1:36:44Speaker 1: have a guy named Rubio, son of Cuban immigrants, running nationally?
- 1:36:51Speaker 1: They got any problem with Hispanic vote? I got a
- 1:36:53Speaker 1: feeling that goes away.
- 1:36:54Speaker 4: We'll see. We got a couple of years now.
- 1:36:56Speaker 1: Today is National Coffee Day. The talkback of the morning
- 1:36:59Speaker 1: and winner of the Curtis Lewa and Larry Menti in
- 1:37:02Speaker 1: the morning T-shirt was concerned about my coffee consumption.
- 1:37:07Speaker 14: Remember, Larry, they say at 15 cups of coffee, you
- 1:37:10Speaker 14: will poop out Juan Valdez.
- 1:37:13Speaker 5: Be careful.
- 1:37:15Speaker 2: Yeah, you said you drank 15 cups of caffeinated.
- 1:37:18Speaker 4: Coffee a day, Larry.
- 1:37:20Speaker 3: I'm shocked by this still.
- 1:37:22Speaker 1: I may have exaggerated because I'm only up to five
- 1:37:24Speaker 1: right now.
