Speaker 1: Marksimone on sevent tenor.
0:09
Speaker 2: Well, hey, the final day of winter today, Winter is over.
0:14
Speaker 2: Today's the last day. Spring begins tomorrow. That is great news.
0:18
Speaker 2: So we're talking about this last hour. They're trying to
0:22
Speaker 2: confirm Mark Wayne Mullen to replace Christy Nome at DHS.
0:28
Speaker 2: And he had to go through the committee hearings and
0:32
Speaker 2: he got through it. He got through it by one vote.
0:34
Speaker 2: One Democrat voted for him. Now, normally, if you're appointed
0:37
Speaker 2: by Trump, you're going to go through hell in a
0:40
Speaker 2: confirmation hearing, and they're not going to confirm you. They're
0:42
Speaker 2: going to all hate you just because you're appointed by Trump.
0:45
Speaker 2: But the reason they picked Mark Wayne Mullen, he's in
0:47
Speaker 2: the Senate for years, he's in the House for years,
0:50
Speaker 2: and he was very good at making friends with everybody,
0:53
Speaker 2: Republicans and Democrats. He just would have lunch with everybody,
0:57
Speaker 2: go to the gym with everybody. So we've got a
0:59
Speaker 2: lot of friends there. That made it easier to confirm him.
1:03
Speaker 2: But you got to get through the committee first. The
1:05
Speaker 2: committee has to approve your nomination, then it goes for
1:08
Speaker 2: the full vote. He should be okay in the full vote.
1:12
Speaker 2: The committee. The problem was Rand Paul is on the
1:15
Speaker 2: committee and they are not friends. Now, Ran Paul, you'll
1:20
Speaker 2: recall a couple of years ago, somebody I don't remember
1:25
Speaker 2: what the reason was or what happened, but Ran Paul,
1:29
Speaker 2: a neighbor comes into his house and punches him. It
1:35
Speaker 2: beats him up and breaks his ribs and Ran Paul
1:38
Speaker 2: ends up in the hospital. Now, we don't forget what
1:40
Speaker 2: the dispute was about. This was a neighbor is in
1:42
Speaker 2: Kentucky and at the time, I guess Mark Wayne Mullen listen,
1:48
Speaker 2: a lot of people I like Rand Paul, A lot
1:50
Speaker 2: of people find him annoying in all kinds of ways.
1:53
Speaker 2: But Mark Wayne Mullen when he heard somebody beat up
1:56
Speaker 2: Rand Paul today, I can understand it. So and Paul
2:01
Speaker 2: not happy about it, and he just glared at Mark
2:03
Speaker 2: Wayne Mullin, gave him a hard time in the hearings
2:06
Speaker 2: and just couldn't stop attacking him.
2:08
Speaker 3: I owned the word apologize. Haven't heard the word regret.
2:11
Speaker 4: Haven't heard I misspoke and it was heated, and I
2:14
Speaker 4: made a mistake, actually any of those words sorry.
2:17
Speaker 5: Actually it wasn't heated. And I'm not apologizing for point,
2:20
Speaker 5: not your count or goodn't.
2:21
Speaker 3: So you're you're jolly well fine, and you want the
2:24
Speaker 3: American public and the people up here to vote that
2:26
Speaker 3: may or may not vote for you, to know that
2:28
Speaker 3: you supported the felonious violent attack on me from behind.
2:32
Speaker 5: I did not say I supported it.
2:35
Speaker 6: I said I understood it.
2:36
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he's not alone. There are people that
2:39
Speaker 2: find ran Paul quite annoying, so they Paul was not
2:45
Speaker 2: going to be happy with him. But here's more from
2:48
Speaker 2: the hearings.
2:49
Speaker 5: Sometimes this political theater, sometimes it's true differences. But what
2:53
Speaker 5: we do know is that we're playing with fire. We
2:56
Speaker 5: have two hundred and eighty thousand Dachs employees right now
3:00
Speaker 5: on day thirty, without pay, and they're still showing up
3:03
Speaker 5: every single day to do their job.
3:06
Speaker 1: Yeah.
3:06
Speaker 2: Now, this Department of Homeland Security that also includes the
3:09
Speaker 2: Secret Service, that includes TSA, that's how all the airports
3:12
Speaker 2: could get screwed up, includes the Coast Guard, but just
3:15
Speaker 2: the airports, the TSA. You got to settle this.
3:18
Speaker 5: I won't back down from a challenge, and I'll also
3:21
Speaker 5: admit when I'm wrong. I'm not perfect. I don't claim
3:25
Speaker 5: to be perfect. I make mistakes just like anybody else.
3:30
Speaker 5: But mistakes. If you own them, you can learn from
3:32
Speaker 5: them and you can move ahead.
3:35
Speaker 2: Yeah, but Rand Paul was not going to vote for
3:38
Speaker 2: this guy. Rand Paul was just that. You could see
3:40
Speaker 2: the steam coming out of his ears as glasses were
3:42
Speaker 2: flogging up. He was really mad.
3:44
Speaker 4: He told the media that I was a freaking snake
3:46
Speaker 4: and that you completely understood why I had been assaulted,
3:49
Speaker 4: and I was shocked they would justify and celebrate this
3:54
Speaker 4: filing assault that caused me so much pain in my family,
3:58
Speaker 4: so much pain. I just wonder if someone who applauds
4:02
Speaker 4: violence against their political opponents is the right person to
4:05
Speaker 4: lead an agency that has struggled to accept limits to
4:08
Speaker 4: the proper use of force.
4:11
Speaker 2: I mean, listen, I understand his anger, but get over it.
4:13
Speaker 4: It is not a personal disagreement when one of your
4:16
Speaker 4: colleagues says that they could completely understand why six of
4:20
Speaker 4: your ribs were broken, your lung was damage. I had
4:24
Speaker 4: part of my lung removed.
4:25
Speaker 1: I had an infection.
4:26
Speaker 4: Almost had you know, I had an infection that had
4:29
Speaker 4: a twenty five percent death rate. So I mean no,
4:32
Speaker 4: I went through hell, and anybody who thinks that that's
4:35
Speaker 4: something that's commendable is an unfit person to lead law enforcement.
4:39
Speaker 2: All Right, all right, it was a terrible thing. Everybody
4:41
Speaker 2: agrees it was a terrible, awful thing. Nobody's for anything
4:44
Speaker 2: like that happening to anybody. But I think he was
4:47
Speaker 2: kind of making a joke about you know, it's like
4:51
Speaker 2: what was with a comedian that somebody was murdered and
4:55
Speaker 2: they said, yeah, there's two thousand suspects. There's just I
4:57
Speaker 2: mean a lot of people don't like Randpa was joke.
5:00
Speaker 2: It was I I can understand him not getting over it.
5:03
Speaker 2: You know, if you're President Trump and you got through
5:08
Speaker 2: Butler Pennsylvania, you know, when that bullet took part of
5:11
Speaker 2: his ear off, he looked pretty brave and he's pumping
5:15
Speaker 2: his fist and he was playing golf the next morning.
5:17
Speaker 2: He was pretty brave. But you gotta you gotta think
5:22
Speaker 2: as brave as he was in front of you, it
5:26
Speaker 2: really got to him. You know, you got you think it. Uh.
5:30
Speaker 2: There were a lot of nightmares probably after that.
5:32
Speaker 1: And then.
5:34
Speaker 2: Weeks later there's a guy with a big rifle on
5:37
Speaker 2: your golf course trying to shoot you. Luckily, a secret
5:39
Speaker 2: service got him. That's two assassination attempts. You gotta think
5:44
Speaker 2: that really haunts you. I mean, as tough as you can,
5:47
Speaker 2: brave as you can appear to be in front of
5:48
Speaker 2: everybody alone when the lights are out and you're thinking
5:53
Speaker 2: to yourself, you must really get to you what could
5:55
Speaker 2: happen to here? And intelligence reports are showing that Iran
5:59
Speaker 2: at she was behind these assassins. I have a feeling
6:03
Speaker 2: this will come out at some point soon that Iran
6:06
Speaker 2: was behind the assassinations. They said they were going to
6:08
Speaker 2: attempt to assassinate Trump, and these two assassins young like
6:14
Speaker 2: in eighteen nineteen twenty. They're the only young guys that
6:18
Speaker 2: have no social media presence whatsoever of any kind. So
6:22
Speaker 2: you got to wonder where the hell they came from.
6:24
Speaker 2: But what's going on in Iran right now? You gotta
6:28
Speaker 2: think that was a factor. That was a big factor
6:31
Speaker 2: because if Iran and they said they were going to
6:33
Speaker 2: try to assassinate President Trump, and if Iran launched an
6:38
Speaker 2: assassination against the US president, you gotta believe that something
6:42
Speaker 2: like that had to get approved at the very top
6:45
Speaker 2: by the Ayatola himself, that he would have had to
6:48
Speaker 2: give the go ahead, and all the top top top
6:50
Speaker 2: two or three, or four Iranian leaders had to sign
6:53
Speaker 2: off on it. So you gotta think that's a factor
6:57
Speaker 2: in this blowing them up that I mean, they tried
7:01
Speaker 2: to kill them and one of their bullets hit them.
7:03
Speaker 2: You gotta think this was a big factor in all
7:06
Speaker 2: of this. Hey, so crazy, mom, Donnie is the latest thing. Now,
7:10
Speaker 2: you know, a big problem in New York. Remember you
7:14
Speaker 2: go back ten years or so to Blasio is what
7:17
Speaker 2: was he talking about how dangerous the streets were because
7:20
Speaker 2: of the cars. You know, people getting hit by cars.
7:23
Speaker 2: Remember what was that Operations safety something whatever. They're trying
7:28
Speaker 2: to cut down on accident's cars hitting people. They made
7:31
Speaker 2: a big, big deal out of this. This is years ago,
7:34
Speaker 2: well over the last ten years. Cars are the least
7:37
Speaker 2: you are worries. It's these e bikes, these e st scooters,
7:40
Speaker 2: these e things, these delivery guys just going every which
7:45
Speaker 2: way and they don't seem to know anything about traffic
7:48
Speaker 2: lights or they can't tell what's the sidewalk, what's the street.
7:51
Speaker 2: They're riding all over the place. In fact, the cars
7:54
Speaker 2: are no problem at all, but most people terrified across
7:57
Speaker 2: the street because of these e bikes. It's a big problem.
8:00
Speaker 2: So they started to crack down during the Adams years,
8:03
Speaker 2: they started to give these guys tickets. Not enough they
8:06
Speaker 2: should you know, they're always looking for more revenue. Just
8:10
Speaker 2: go after these e bikes. Just ticket them every time
8:13
Speaker 2: they go through a red light, every time they're on
8:15
Speaker 2: the sidewalk, every time they're going too fast. Just ticket
8:18
Speaker 2: them and believe or not a e bike ticket was criminal. Well, mom,
8:23
Speaker 2: Donnie just changed all of that. It's now no longer criminal.
8:27
Speaker 2: It's now civil. Now you might say, well, okay for
8:30
Speaker 2: a traffic thing, that should be so now, brum is
8:33
Speaker 2: a lot of these e bike riders are not really citizens.
8:38
Speaker 2: Nobody can really find them. And if you just give
8:41
Speaker 2: them civil means they just get a ticket, and if
8:43
Speaker 2: they don't answer it, nobody can do much of anything
8:45
Speaker 2: to them. They're kind of off the books. There's no
8:48
Speaker 2: way to touch them. Criminal means you I got to
8:50
Speaker 2: go to court, You've got to appear in court and
8:54
Speaker 2: answer the thing. So by dropping the criminal part of it,
8:57
Speaker 2: now it's only civil. If they can get all the
8:59
Speaker 2: tickets in the world, they can just throw them away, don't
9:01
Speaker 2: have to do a thing about it, and really nothing
9:03
Speaker 2: can happen to him if it had remained criminal as
9:06
Speaker 2: it was, they would have to show up in court.
9:08
Speaker 2: If they didn't, they could be arrested. So it's another
9:11
Speaker 2: awful crazy thing from mom Donnie. He I mean, the
9:17
Speaker 2: good news is everybody thought he'd just destroyed the whole city.
9:21
Speaker 2: He's doing it like little nickel and dimes stuff here
9:23
Speaker 2: and there. It could be worse, It could be worse.
9:27
Speaker 1: Now.
9:27
Speaker 2: Police Commissioner Tish was all for criminal tickets of these
9:32
Speaker 2: e bikes. In fact, remember last year she wrote a
9:35
Speaker 2: big op ed in the Post and support of it.
9:37
Speaker 2: She and Adams were behind this big blitz. This is
9:42
Speaker 2: her editorial she wrote back then. When vehicle drivers failed
9:45
Speaker 2: to respond to a traffic summons, their license can be suspended.
9:49
Speaker 2: E bikes do not require any license, so their operators
9:52
Speaker 2: can simply ignore a traffic summons with virtually no repercussions.
9:56
Speaker 2: Now that's the other thing. If he's really concerned about
9:59
Speaker 2: rep and you make every e bike, every e scooter,
10:02
Speaker 2: every e everything have to have a license, put a
10:07
Speaker 2: license on it. You charge money for the license, a
10:10
Speaker 2: yearly fee. You know, just like you're driving. You know
10:12
Speaker 2: your license in your car. You pay every year for that.
10:15
Speaker 2: So every e bike and scooter has to have a
10:17
Speaker 2: license charge whatever one hundred and fifty a year. Also,
10:21
Speaker 2: that way, when they get a ticket, you can trace
10:25
Speaker 2: trace them down. Also, if there's a horrible hit and
10:28
Speaker 2: run by one of those e bikes, you could go
10:30
Speaker 2: to the surveillance video, which if you do it, now,
10:34
Speaker 2: what are you going to find? Nothing? You just see
10:36
Speaker 2: a bike and you see a guy with a helmet on.
10:37
Speaker 2: Can't really identify him. But if there was a visible
10:40
Speaker 2: license on the back of that bike, then you could
10:43
Speaker 2: then you could identify him. So but apparently with mom Donnie,
10:47
Speaker 2: you're not going to get that. You're not going to
10:49
Speaker 2: get that. Hey, how bad is the crime in New York? Now,
10:52
Speaker 2: I'm talking to all you people way out there in
10:54
Speaker 2: the suburbs or and weve got listeners all over the
10:56
Speaker 2: country and other cities. Sometimes you talk to them and
10:59
Speaker 2: they'll get though. I would never go to New It's
11:01
Speaker 2: so dangerous, right, I watched the news. It's a shooting,
11:04
Speaker 2: is stabbing. It's so dangerous, And it's not dangerous. Uh,
11:08
Speaker 2: in the middle of Manhattan, it's not dangerous. Would you
11:10
Speaker 2: guys in the control room agree, it's not right here?
11:13
Speaker 2: We're in the middle of mid town Manhattan. If you
11:16
Speaker 2: haven't been to New York since the Giuliani days and
11:20
Speaker 2: you suddenly flew here and walked around right out there
11:22
Speaker 2: by Rockefeller Center and down there, it's fine. It's just fine.
11:27
Speaker 2: Everything looks it looks exactly the same. So when you're
11:30
Speaker 2: seeing all this crime and there's some people getting pushed
11:33
Speaker 2: and shoved in the subway and stabbing and shooting, it's
11:37
Speaker 2: unfortunately it's all like an eight precincts. There are areas
11:40
Speaker 2: that still remain dangerous. In the Bronx, there's certain you know,
11:45
Speaker 2: I think parts of Queen's, parts of Brooklyn, there's still
11:47
Speaker 2: some dangerous areas. But the middle of Manhattan it's just
11:50
Speaker 2: as safe as ever. It's really fine. But in the
11:54
Speaker 2: Bronx they got the police Commissioner Tish on the stand
11:57
Speaker 2: and but they got a right to complain. But it's
11:59
Speaker 2: not her fault. When you got a shortage of cops.
12:01
Speaker 2: It's supposed to have forty thousand, we got like thirty
12:04
Speaker 2: four thousand. You got a skimp in some places. And
12:08
Speaker 2: it's not about discrimination, but obviously you got to protect
12:11
Speaker 2: your business district. You're a and this is where all
12:13
Speaker 2: the revenue of man at and happens. It's where everybody works.
12:16
Speaker 2: But she was on the hot seat yesterday.
12:18
Speaker 7: Shootings are down city wide, and the Bronx they are
12:20
Speaker 7: up thirty five points.
12:22
Speaker 3: I understand that in nice middle.
12:24
Speaker 7: So it's safe to say that the progress for data
12:26
Speaker 7: to shooting hasn't reached the Bronx.
12:28
Speaker 1: Last year there were over one hundred viewer people shot
12:32
Speaker 1: in the burrow of the Bronx then the previous year.
12:35
Speaker 7: We've made progress last year, but it seems like we're
12:38
Speaker 7: going backward. The numbers were dated to shooting victims and
12:41
Speaker 7: shooting incidents and murder going up this year compared to
12:43
Speaker 7: last year. That last those numbers that we cannot ignore
12:47
Speaker 7: a record breaking s for gun violence.
12:49
Speaker 8: And I will not have the work of the members
12:54
Speaker 8: of the New York City Police Department mischaracterized.
12:57
Speaker 2: Again, it's not her fault. There's a shortage of cops
13:00
Speaker 2: and Mom, Donnie's going to keep that shortage going. We
13:03
Speaker 2: need about forty thousand. I think we're a thirty four thousand,
13:06
Speaker 2: and he's not going to hire a new Now. The
13:08
Speaker 2: other thing, when you don't hire new cops, got number
13:11
Speaker 2: of shrinks because we lose about three thousand a year
13:14
Speaker 2: just through retirement attrition. That's why you got to keep
13:17
Speaker 2: adding cops. And we're not doing it at a fast
13:19
Speaker 2: enough pace. Hey, you know, there's a big problem going
13:23
Speaker 2: on in the restaurant, the bar world, the nightclub world.
13:27
Speaker 2: People don't drink as much as they used to. Can
13:30
Speaker 2: you believe this? Yeah, restaurants are struggling. Americans are drinking less.
13:38
Speaker 2: A lot of Americans just started drinking a lot less.
13:40
Speaker 2: And the problem is younger generations, you know, under thirty five,
13:44
Speaker 2: they're really not interested in alcohol. They don't drink much.
13:47
Speaker 2: They can't stand wine, they don't drink it. You know,
13:50
Speaker 2: a lot of the top vineyards in America, a couple
13:52
Speaker 2: of them have had to close because business is down.
13:55
Speaker 2: But it's really affecting restaurants because that was a big
13:58
Speaker 2: part of their revenue. In fact, in a restaurant, your
14:01
Speaker 2: food alcohol, it was about a fifty to fifty split
14:04
Speaker 2: in revenue. But now it's different. Seventy percent is coming
14:10
Speaker 2: from food, only thirty percent from alcohol. A new Gallop
14:14
Speaker 2: pole finds that in the US, how many adults drink
14:18
Speaker 2: fifty four percent that's a very low number, Only fifty
14:21
Speaker 2: four percent so it's hurting restaurants. Also, it's killing happy hour.
14:26
Speaker 2: There's not as big a happy hour crowd anymore Friday
14:29
Speaker 2: nights and whatever. The big bar seed and that's kind
14:31
Speaker 2: of empty.
14:32
Speaker 9: Now.
14:32
Speaker 2: People aren't drinking. The reasons well, increased awareness of health risks,
14:38
Speaker 2: a generational shift. Younger people just aren't drinking. They aren't interested.
14:43
Speaker 2: And about six percent of America now uses those injections,
14:47
Speaker 2: those those zempic type things, and apparently with that you
14:50
Speaker 2: drink a lot less, not just eat less, drink less.
14:54
Speaker 2: Alcohol sales are slumping in every category the restaurant industry
14:59
Speaker 2: Casual find thirty one percent of operations reporting severe declines
15:06
Speaker 2: in alcohol sales in twenty twenty six. I don't know
15:09
Speaker 2: what's in the liquor stores. You can imagine the problems
15:12
Speaker 2: they're having. Anyway, we'll take some calls next. Eight hundred
15:15
Speaker 2: three to two one zero seven ten is the number.
15:19
Speaker 2: Eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten.
15:24
Speaker 1: Get hits and access to Mark by setting a pre
15:26
Speaker 1: set in the iHeartRadio app for his live show.
15:29
Speaker 9: And his podcast.
15:31
Speaker 1: Now back to the month simone show on wr.
15:37
Speaker 6: Hey.
15:37
Speaker 2: We'll take some calls eight hundred three two one zero
15:41
Speaker 2: seven ten is the number. Let's go to Dante in
15:43
Speaker 2: New Jersey. Dante, how you doing.
15:45
Speaker 8: I'm doing all right. I got a question maybe somebody
15:49
Speaker 8: can answer. These oil producers in America. I think they're
15:53
Speaker 8: they're ripping us off because they're not paying one dime
15:57
Speaker 8: more to produce the oil in this country than they
15:59
Speaker 8: were three weeks ago. And we produced more oil than
16:03
Speaker 8: anybody else in the world, and some of the oil
16:05
Speaker 8: comes off of our own sedral land, which belongs to us.
16:08
Speaker 2: Yeah, sometimes it's the oil companies. More often it's the
16:11
Speaker 2: government's the local state governments. You know, gas when it
16:14
Speaker 2: was two dollars and thirty cents everywhere in America. Still
16:18
Speaker 2: six dollars in California, Still four dollars in parts of
16:21
Speaker 2: New York. That's because the governments just tax it to death,
16:25
Speaker 2: tax it to death. You know, when you go to
16:29
Speaker 2: the pump and it's the let's say four dollars, about
16:32
Speaker 2: twelve cents of that goes to the oil company. The
16:33
Speaker 2: rest is all taxes and fees. Let's go to Joe
16:37
Speaker 2: in Mattawan, New Jersey. Joe, how you doing.
16:41
Speaker 6: I'm well, Thank you, Mark. I enjoyed your piece. Just
16:43
Speaker 6: before the break on alcohol consumption of the demographic group
16:47
Speaker 6: below thirty five. My question to you is, if they're
16:51
Speaker 6: not drinking and going to happy hours, what are they
16:53
Speaker 6: doing with that time?
16:55
Speaker 2: They're staying home, they're looking at their phone, they're meeting
16:57
Speaker 2: each other online. They don't need to go to a
16:59
Speaker 2: happy hour. They don't need to go to a bar.
17:02
Speaker 1: Uh.
17:03
Speaker 2: It's kind of sad. I mean everything's moving to online
17:07
Speaker 2: and not in person.
17:09
Speaker 1: But okay, thank you, Mark.
17:11
Speaker 2: Yeah. Now, if you're in the middle of Manhattan and
17:13
Speaker 2: you go to you'll see a big bar crowd in
17:15
Speaker 2: the middle of Manhattan. But that's Manhattan, although not as
17:18
Speaker 2: big as it used to be. But if you're out
17:19
Speaker 2: in the suburbs or in other places, you really don't
17:21
Speaker 2: see the happy hour crowd is a lot, a lot
17:25
Speaker 2: smaller than it used to be. Let's go to Vincent
17:27
Speaker 2: and Brooklyn. Vincent. How you doing, Good.
17:29
Speaker 9: Morning, Mark, Mark. I'm okay. I believe part of the
17:32
Speaker 9: problem with the repeat crime in the Bronx is the
17:37
Speaker 9: fact that you have these You have a whacked out
17:41
Speaker 9: liberal district attorney up there, and also a lot of
17:44
Speaker 9: the judges. There's one judge in particular she's like Bruce
17:49
Speaker 9: Wright of the seventies and eighties. That was in Tom
17:53
Speaker 9: Wolf's book.
17:54
Speaker 2: Yeah, turn theruce.
17:58
Speaker 9: Exactly exactly. Mark this law that Mondomi wants to pass
18:04
Speaker 9: about lowering the threshold of having with the inheritance tax,
18:09
Speaker 9: that's a real can of worms if you really look
18:12
Speaker 9: into it. Because let's say a person owns a business
18:15
Speaker 9: and it's it's not traded publicly. Let's say a person
18:20
Speaker 9: who has a real Tony car dealership that could easily
18:25
Speaker 9: be worth over a million dollars. First, even a small
18:29
Speaker 9: business to be worth over a million dollars these days
18:32
Speaker 9: isn't very hard, especially if it's a small building attached
18:36
Speaker 9: with the business. And if this person wants to pass
18:40
Speaker 9: that on to his kids, his grandkids, whoever. A friend,
18:44
Speaker 9: if these people don't come up with the inheritance tax
18:48
Speaker 9: on that, the city could confiscate the property and everything.
18:52
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's the idea. I think that's what's up.
18:55
Speaker 9: That's what he said, because he wants inheritance.
18:57
Speaker 2: Tax doesn't kick in till seven million. He wants to
18:59
Speaker 2: make it seven hundred fifty thousand, which means for most people,
19:02
Speaker 2: if they die, the house the kids will need to
19:05
Speaker 2: sell it to pay the inheritance tax and they.
19:07
Speaker 9: And that's going to really really hurt the black and
19:11
Speaker 9: Hispanic middle class and even the white middle class because
19:16
Speaker 9: that's into generational wealth. These people worked all their lives
19:19
Speaker 9: to finally pay off this house and they want to
19:23
Speaker 9: pass it on to their kids or their grandkids. And
19:27
Speaker 9: he's not even saying per individual, who's in the will,
19:31
Speaker 9: wo who's going to inherit this? This is the total
19:34
Speaker 9: value of the estate that's nothing these days, seven hundred
19:38
Speaker 9: and fifty thousand dollars. So what about a company like
19:43
Speaker 9: the Trump Corporation. Now I don't know if it's publicly traded,
19:47
Speaker 9: but I'm just using that as an example. What is
19:49
Speaker 9: he going to come and confiscate big companies and everything
19:54
Speaker 9: that are still helped privately.
19:56
Speaker 2: No, it's ridiculous, Vincent, great call, Thanks for calling. Yeah, real,
20:00
Speaker 2: the problem is in New York City and he's talking
20:03
Speaker 2: about fifty percent tax if you die. Let's say it's
20:06
Speaker 2: a seven hundred thousand dollars house, the taxi be three
20:08
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty thousand. Many many cases, they wouldn't be
20:11
Speaker 2: able to pass the house along to their kids. The
20:13
Speaker 2: kids would have to sell it to pay the inheritance tax.
20:17
Speaker 2: And first of all, the argument against inheritance tax, this
20:21
Speaker 2: money's already been taxed. When the person earned it, they
20:24
Speaker 2: paid tax on it. It's already taxed. The money. Once
20:28
Speaker 2: you pay all the tax and it's yours, it shouldn't
20:30
Speaker 2: be taxed again. Anyway. It's a crazy, crazy, ridiculous mom
20:34
Speaker 2: Donnie proposal. Hey, when we come back, Jimmy Fayla on
20:37
Speaker 2: every night at nine here on WR. It's very funny.
20:40

Speaker 1: a comedy show because everybody's always like, you know, are
21:21
Speaker 1: you afraid you're going to offend people? Nothing I can
21:23
Speaker 1: say is worse than what mom Donnie's wife is retweeting.
21:27
Speaker 1: So I feel like I feel like I got a
21:30
Speaker 1: free pass this week to really pull the goalie. I mean,
21:34
Speaker 1: those people, my goodness gracious. And I was telling my
21:37

Speaker 1: They've never been to New York. They're from Ohio. And
21:46
Speaker 1: I said, hey, you don't have to worry about terrorists
21:48
Speaker 1: because they're not on the street, because the mayor keeps
21:50
Speaker 1: inviting them to dinner, so you're safe. You can just
21:53
Speaker 1: come hang out. As long as you're not a door

23:06
Speaker 1: You just go to You're gonna laugh. We have. It's
23:10
Speaker 1: become there's like a couple's thing. There's a couple of
23:13
Speaker 1: like young Irish couples specifically that I met at Langan's
23:17
Speaker 1: Bar across the street from Fox, that now come every
23:20
Speaker 1: Friday and I don't even know what their professional background is,
23:25
Speaker 1: but they look like models, like like actual models, and
23:30
Speaker 1: maybe that's what's keeping them in shape. They come see
23:32
Speaker 1: my chubby behind and it's like a scared straight. Do
23:35
Speaker 1: you remember scared straight back in the day. But they're there.
23:38
Speaker 1: It's like, if you want to come, it's it's the
23:40
Speaker 1: great You're right to say this. It's the greatest Friday
23:42
Speaker 1: night date ever because it costs you nothing. You're at
23:44
Speaker 1: a TV show, which is kind of cool. And my
23:47
Speaker 1: show is very foreign to the concept of TV in
23:50
Speaker 1: that we talk to you during the commercial break. We're
23:52
Speaker 1: not stuck up TV people who just keep to ourselves
23:55
Speaker 1: and like shut up and laugh when we say something
23:58
Speaker 1: like we actually hang out. You know, there's card tricks,
24:01
Speaker 1: chit chats, Q and A's it gets rody. Actually, you
24:04
Speaker 1: should come, you know what. I make fun of myself
24:06
Speaker 1: a lot, but everyone listening should come. You'd enjoy it.
24:08
Speaker 2: Yeah, you get free tickets. Go to Foxacross America dot com. Hey,
24:13
Speaker 2: the Oscars, the ratings are way way down. What do
24:17
Speaker 2: you think that means for the Oscars and for Conan?
24:19
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was saying it's a bad look for Hollywood
24:22
Speaker 1: when even the ratings are on Ozembic, like, you guys
24:25
Speaker 1: are trying to shrink everything out there. You know what,
24:29
Speaker 1: you know, I don't delight in this obviously, you know,
24:33
Speaker 1: we know that a lot of the problem is obviously
24:35
Speaker 1: got a little political. They alienated a lot of the audience.
24:38
Speaker 1: But I feel like they're blowing such a good thing.
24:41
Speaker 1: I mean, Hollywood and it's Heyday at the peak. You know,
24:46
Speaker 1: they were stars, and they leaned into being stars. They
24:49
Speaker 1: didn't try to, you know, act aggrieved and complain, because
24:52
Speaker 1: nobody wants to hear the luckiest people in the world complain.
24:56
Speaker 1: You know, that's the r if you're in Hollywood, right,
24:58
Speaker 1: you pretend to be a fireman and make twenty million
25:01
Speaker 1: dollars in a movie, like you don't have real problems
25:04
Speaker 1: compared to an actual fireman or a cop or anybody
25:07
Speaker 1: out there in the real world. And that's what I
25:09
Speaker 1: think they did wrong, is they started to embrace this
25:12
Speaker 1: notion that victimhood was currency. So instead of getting out
25:15
Speaker 1: there and being like, hey, we hit the genetic lottery,
25:18
Speaker 1: we're gorgeous. We're here wearing dresses that cost more than
25:21
Speaker 1: your house. This is a fantasy life. Now they're trying
25:25
Speaker 1: to be like culture Warriors, and nobody wants it, you know.
25:28
Speaker 1: And it's not even like if they were Republican, we
25:31
Speaker 1: wouldn't want it either. We just we don't want anything.
25:33
Speaker 6: Just stick to doing if.
25:34
Speaker 1: You're Hollywood for real, stick to doing what you do best,
25:37
Speaker 1: which is cocaine.
25:40
Speaker 2: And what happened to Jimmy Kimmel. He used to be
25:42
Speaker 2: many years ago, a Jimmy fail a type of a
25:45
Speaker 2: fun guy. Now he comes out he just looks angry
25:48
Speaker 2: and bitter and mean. And what happens.
25:52
Speaker 1: I know, I loved it the Oscars when he goes
25:54
Speaker 1: America doesn't have free speech. I'm like, you're saying that
25:57
Speaker 1: in America freely, you're not going to jail, you know
26:01
Speaker 1: that any kind of trouble. You know, he's definitely a guy
26:04
Speaker 1: who got bit by that radioactive spider, you know, that
26:07
Speaker 1: anti Trump thing a lot of people have on the left.
26:10
Speaker 1: And I think he has a second issue though. When
26:13
Speaker 1: he was on The Man Show, which was a good funny,
26:16
Speaker 1: you know, a reverend show, and it was very sophomoric
26:18
Speaker 1: and stupid, but it was funny, okay. But he got
26:21
Speaker 1: into the habit of wearing black faced a lot on
26:23
Speaker 1: that show. Which makes him very cancellable to the modern left.
26:27
Speaker 1: And I think like Sarah Silverman before him, because he's
26:31
Speaker 1: good friends with Sarah Silverman. Obviously they both right around
26:35
Speaker 1: like twenty fourteen twenty fifteen, when they were retroactively firing
26:40
Speaker 1: comics for old jokes. They both suddenly became like militant liberals.
26:44
Speaker 1: So it's almost like a protection racket, Like they're literally
26:48
Speaker 1: like making amends with the outrage mom, like, hey, we'll
26:51
Speaker 1: just attack Trump every time someone hands as the microphone
26:54
Speaker 1: as long as you don't cancel me for dressing up
26:56
Speaker 1: as Karl alone.
26:57
Speaker 2: And that's that's pretty theory there. That's a yeah. So
27:04
Speaker 2: are you guys at Fox, are you very worried about
27:07
Speaker 2: MSNBC with the big new lineup they're unveiling.
27:11
Speaker 1: You know what's funny about since she said that, the
27:13
Speaker 1: fact that they're cutting Joe and Mika back by an hour.
27:16
Speaker 1: That was not the network's choice. That was a marriage
27:19
Speaker 1: counselor's choice. Okay, those two people hate each other. Everyone
27:24
Speaker 1: listening to this interview has had a couple over for dinner,
27:27
Speaker 1: and when you answered your front door, you could tell
27:29
Speaker 1: the couple had been screaming at each other in the
27:31
Speaker 1: car the whole way there. That is every time I
27:34
Speaker 1: have ever met Joe and Mika at like a media event,
27:37
Speaker 1: they have that energy, Like these two people were just
27:41
Speaker 1: screaming a minute ago. And so I think for them,
27:44
Speaker 1: less is more, And I obviously, you know, as far
27:46
Speaker 1: as the ratings go, less is a lot more. So
27:48
Speaker 1: good move.
27:49
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I haven't been around them. I think that's
27:53
Speaker 2: their thing. They like being angry. They're always angry, by
27:56
Speaker 2: the way, they always saw.
27:58
Speaker 1: Don't ever forget. They called Trump Hitler for ten years
28:02
Speaker 1: and then when Trump won reelection, they knocked on Hitler's
28:04
Speaker 1: door and asked to be friends. Is there anything funnier?
28:08
Speaker 9: You know?
28:08
Speaker 1: There's no shame left in the media. It's like, remember
28:10
Speaker 1: this mark, how much time did we spend about the Democrats?
28:14
Speaker 1: And Michelle Obama was the most recent one to do it,
28:16
Speaker 1: to say, oh, America is too misogynistic for a female president.
28:20
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna run. And now they're literally telling us
28:23
Speaker 1: we can have voter ID because women are too stupid
28:25
Speaker 1: to figure it out. I'm like, pick a lane.
28:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, speaking of first ladies, Jill Biden's got a book
28:33
Speaker 2: coming out. Will you be reading that.
28:36
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Idiot's Guide to Elder Abuse. It's in the
28:40
Speaker 1: self help section. It's in the self You got a
28:45
Speaker 1: lot of choices this year. Okay, you got the Jill thing,
28:48
Speaker 1: and then you've got those historic Joe's got a book
28:50
Speaker 1: coming out written entirely in auto pen And you know,
28:54
Speaker 1: as I've been telling you, everybody at Fox trashes the
28:57
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris book, but it is historic because it's the
29:00
Speaker 1: only book that began in chapter eleven.
29:02
Speaker 2: I mean, come on, we're almost out of time. But
29:08
Speaker 2: may Or, Mom, Donnie, he's easing up on the e bikes.
29:11
Speaker 2: It's not going to be no more criminal anything. Would
29:14
Speaker 2: you say that's one of the biggest threats to anybody
29:15
Speaker 2: walking around New York those e bikes, EA, scooters, all
29:18
Speaker 2: that stuff.
29:19
Speaker 1: Yes, we're all living in the video game Frogger. Okay,
29:23
Speaker 1: because it's not just trying to cross the street. They're
29:26
Speaker 1: on the sidewalk, they're going the wrong way in traffic.
29:29
Speaker 1: The bike lanes are obviously a suggestion. And by the way,
29:32
Speaker 1: those bike lanes were originally justified because they said we'd
29:35
Speaker 1: have less emissions. They said, well, you know, we cut
29:37
Speaker 1: down on the car lanes more people ride bikes less pollution.
29:41
Speaker 1: There's not a guy pedaling in the whole city. Every
29:44
Speaker 1: one of those bikes has an engine, and all of
29:46
Speaker 1: that congestion was caused by them, and now they're banging
29:49
Speaker 1: us a tax for it. It's absurd, But mom, Donnie
29:51
Speaker 1: doesn't care. I think like he likes the chaos Man.
29:54
Speaker 1: It's like the Broadway play the producers. He's trying to
29:57
Speaker 1: tank the play and collect insurance money. No other way
30:00
Speaker 1: to describe it. He's zorn biali stock. That's weird.
30:04
Speaker 2: That could be. Hey, we'll just about out of time.
30:07
Speaker 2: Jimmy Fayal is on every night on WR nine to midnight.
