- 0:00Speaker 1: So did it wake you up? Those thunderstorms in the
- 0:03Speaker 1: middle of the night? Did it wake you.
- 0:06Speaker 2: Up, Natalie?
- 0:07Speaker 3: Woke me up.
- 0:08Speaker 2: It shook me out of bed, literally. Wow. I mean,
- 0:11Speaker 2: they were close. Very close. One shook my house. It
- 0:16Speaker 2: was one of.
- 0:18Speaker 1: Those systems that when it comes through, the beginning of
- 0:21Speaker 1: the system is going to have a lot of lightning
- 0:24Speaker 1: and a lot of thunder. There was a few times,
- 0:27Speaker 1: two or three times, my whole house lit up. You know,
- 0:30Speaker 1: because it was close. It was all of a sudden
- 0:33Speaker 1: this flash of light. It was total darkness, and it
- 0:36Speaker 1: was light for like two seconds.
- 0:38Speaker 4: And then you look at the clock and say, how
- 0:39Speaker 4: much time do I have left? Am I going to
- 0:40Speaker 4: be able to fall back asleep?
- 0:42Speaker 2: Exactly. Or am I up for the day now? But
- 0:47Speaker 2: they were quick moving. That's what was nice. They were
- 0:49Speaker 2: in and out of the area. And you saw the lightning. Oh, yeah.
- 0:53Speaker 5: So now, if you wanted to check if there was
- 0:56Speaker 5: any damage to your property, because sometimes there is. You're
- 1:00Speaker 5: told don't go out for a full 30 minutes until
- 1:04Speaker 5: after the storm has passed.
- 1:07Speaker 2: And you say to yourself, why?
- 1:08Speaker 5: Well, there's always a danger you could end up like
- 1:11Speaker 5: that guy in Staten Island who worked for Congresswoman Nicole Maliotakis, remember,
- 1:15Speaker 5: got hit by the lightning, went down.
- 1:18Speaker 2: A neighbor helped him.
- 1:20Speaker 5: And we got to find out if he won the
- 1:23Speaker 5: lotto because he bought a lotto ticket.
- 1:24Speaker 2: That's the first thing you notice, Larry, since he's a
- 1:27Speaker 2: lucky guy.
- 1:29Speaker 4: But I'm hoping, I'm hoping that this all means this
- 1:32Speaker 4: weekend is going to be gorgeous because a lot of
- 1:35Speaker 4: people have a long weekend. It's looking right now like
- 1:39Speaker 4: it's a pretty perfect Labor Day weekend.
- 1:41Speaker 2: We all deserve a great weekend.
- 1:43Speaker 6: Yes.
- 1:44Speaker 2: I deserve a great weekend. You do.
- 1:45Speaker 1: I do deserve a great weekend, but I have birthday parties, kids'
- 1:49Speaker 1: birthday parties all weekend long. Not that I don't love them.
- 1:53Speaker 1: It's my grandson who's having a birthday party.
- 1:56Speaker 2: You've got to go then.
- 1:58Speaker 1: But two birthday parties? I've got to go to two
- 2:00Speaker 1: birthday parties for the same grandson? Seriously, that's stretching it
- 2:04Speaker 1: a little bit.
- 2:04Speaker 2: Isn't it? I would not be complaining about that. That's right. Oh, Stacia,
- 2:10Speaker 2: I can't wait. Stacia, he can't wait to be there.
- 2:13Speaker 5: I'm assuming we check off the box that says you'd
- 2:16Speaker 5: be going for the last weekend for Labor Day down
- 2:19Speaker 5: at the Jersey Shore.
- 2:20Speaker 2: That will not be on your list of places. I
- 2:23Speaker 2: might be able to make it down.
- 2:25Speaker 1: See, I don't want to do Sunday and Monday because
- 2:27Speaker 1: then you hit the traffic on the way back on
- 2:29Speaker 1: both those days because- People put in their rental homes
- 2:32Speaker 1: on Sunday and they come back. And then Monday, if
- 2:34Speaker 1: they have a house down there, they come back. So, no,
- 2:37Speaker 1: I think– Oh, deal.
- 2:38Speaker 2: With the traffic. You know what I'm going to do?
- 2:39Speaker 2: I'm going to sit home and sulk. Oh, don't do that.
- 2:41Speaker 2: That's a good plan. But hop along, Natalie.
- 2:44Speaker 7: Yes.
- 2:45Speaker 2: Hopping, literally.
- 2:46Speaker 5: No doubt, who is now recovering. Completely, while also doing
- 2:51Speaker 5: your producer duties here in studio. You'll be going down
- 2:55Speaker 5: to the Jersey Shore, no doubt, for this final weekend, right?
- 2:58Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely.
- 2:59Speaker 5: I have to ask you both, because it's been such
- 3:02Speaker 5: a topsy-turvy summer with extreme weather flash, flooding, hot, humid.
- 3:09Speaker 5: How do you think it's been for the vendors, the businesses,
- 3:12Speaker 5: the restaurants who are so dependent on that rush of
- 3:16Speaker 5: a crowd from the Memorial Day weekend to the Labor
- 3:19Speaker 5: Day weekend?
- 3:19Speaker 2: Oh, I have an answer. I have an answer.
- 3:23Speaker 1: I've told you before, Mike's Seafood in Seattle City, that's
- 3:26Speaker 1: a family-owned business, and he's doing great. He's having a great,
- 3:30Speaker 1: you know why? Because people can't go to the beach.
- 3:34Speaker 1: Sometimes they can't go to the boardwalk at night.
- 3:35Speaker 2: What are they going to do? They're going to go
- 3:37Speaker 2: to a restaurant. Wow, I didn't think of that.
- 3:39Speaker 1: The restaurants are doing really, really well down the shore.
- 3:44Speaker 5: And so, Natalie, yourself, your perception, even though you've been
- 3:47Speaker 5: in pain and hopping around, is that Has it been
- 3:51Speaker 5: a good summer for the Jersey Shore?
- 3:53Speaker 4: You know, when I go into the towns like Lavalette,
- 3:56Speaker 4: you know, around where there's a lot of businesses, it's packed.
- 4:01Speaker 2: It's packed.
- 4:02Speaker 1: Yeah, because even when it rains, people are on vacation.
- 4:05Speaker 1: They want to do something. So they go to the stores.
- 4:08Speaker 1: They'll go to the boardwalk and stay under the awnings.
- 4:10Speaker 1: And walk from store to store to store to store.
- 4:13Speaker 6: Right.
- 4:13Speaker 4: You know, you have the people. You said, you know,
- 4:15Speaker 4: you rented the house for the week. You're going to
- 4:17Speaker 4: go out. You're going to spend money. I mean, maybe
- 4:19Speaker 4: day trippers wouldn't be going down. But I felt like
- 4:21Speaker 4: the weekends were always one day that you can pull out.
- 4:25Speaker 5: But I think the other thing you commented early on
- 4:27Speaker 5: in this summer process of the Jersey Shore is how
- 4:30Speaker 5: well law enforcement has done in imposing curfews. on their beaches,
- 4:35Speaker 5: also the boardwalks because of all the wilding incidences in
- 4:40Speaker 5: the past that might have deterred people from coming down like, oh,
- 4:43Speaker 5: we don't want to be with all those crazy teenagers.
- 4:45Speaker 5: Apparently from Cape May right on up to Point Pleasant,
- 4:48Speaker 5: they've done an excellent job.
- 4:50Speaker 1: You really haven't heard much. Well, Cape May had that
- 4:52Speaker 1: one problem. It's funny that you said Cape May because
- 4:55Speaker 1: the place that never has any problems and doesn't really
- 4:58Speaker 1: even meet any laws never has any problems because Because
- 5:02Speaker 1: it used to be that the average age there was deceased.
- 5:05Speaker 1: And so now it's gotten to yuppies. Yuppies are starting
- 5:08Speaker 1: to go there now. And then all of a sudden,
- 5:11Speaker 1: because of all the laws and the curfews in Wildwood
- 5:14Speaker 1: and Ocean City and Seaside Heights, all up and down
- 5:17Speaker 1: the coast, the only place that didn't have a curfew,
- 5:20Speaker 1: because everybody went to bed early anyway, was Cape May.
- 5:23Speaker 7: And all of a sudden, they had these curfews. flash
- 5:27Speaker 7: parties on the beach. Cape May was God's waiting room, right?
- 5:30Speaker 7: It was sort of the equivalent of what Florida used
- 5:32Speaker 7: to be. If you went to Cape May, you were
- 5:33Speaker 7: just waiting.
- 5:34Speaker 5: But speaking of beaches, when you were in New York City,
- 5:38Speaker 5: we have this phenomenon that has occurred now that you
- 5:40Speaker 5: really don't have down by the Jersey Shore and other places,
- 5:44Speaker 5: random attacks. Almost every day, the headlines, a random attack.
- 5:49Speaker 5: not pre-orchestrated, not part of a gang, not part of
- 5:52Speaker 5: a group that's going to an area to commit crime,
- 5:55Speaker 5: and then when confronted, uses lethal force. Individual random attacks.
- 6:01Speaker 5: So I'll give you an update on my nephew, who
- 6:03Speaker 5: was the victim of that random attack the other night. Hours, remember,
- 6:08Speaker 5: after that woman took those two knives in Times Square,
- 6:12Speaker 5: stabbed a man who was with his wife from Rhode Island.
- 6:16Speaker 5: He luckily recovered, and then as she moved up a block,
- 6:19Speaker 5: She killed that young mother who had just come off
- 6:23Speaker 5: of her leave for caring for her child. She's an
- 6:27Speaker 5: executive at Bank of America. What a great story, her
- 6:31Speaker 5: and her husband. They met at Fordham Law. She went
- 6:33Speaker 5: to the University of Pennsylvania. She was just getting back
- 6:36Speaker 5: her first day work, and now she's no longer with us.
- 6:41Speaker 2: She's dead. Again, what do they call it? A random attack.
- 6:44Speaker 2: With my nephew.
- 6:46Speaker 5: He and his girlfriend and a friend in their early
- 6:50Speaker 5: 20s were walking over to that Legos location near Rockefeller Center.
- 6:55Speaker 5: It's like huge, you know, people around the block, a
- 6:58Speaker 5: lot of tourists buying Legos. They were going there to
- 7:00Speaker 5: look at some of the new stuff and a car
- 7:03Speaker 5: almost hit them. And the next thing you know, the
- 7:05Speaker 5: driver gets out. This is in front of St. Patrick's Cathedral,
- 7:08Speaker 5: across from Saks Fifth Avenue, pulls out a straight edge racer.
- 7:15Speaker 5: and cuts him, in which he took in about over
- 7:21Speaker 5: 38 stitches, and then he had a collapse along. So
- 7:23Speaker 5: he's in really bad shape at Bellevue. He is nicely
- 7:26Speaker 5: recovering now. The police are all over it. The police
- 7:30Speaker 5: commissioner told me they were able to trace the license
- 7:34Speaker 5: plate at his BMW. She didn't say flock camera, but
- 7:37Speaker 5: it must have been because they arrested the guy upstate,
- 7:40Speaker 5: you know, the license plate reading technology that exists.
- 7:44Speaker 2: And I guess we're just.
- 7:45Speaker 5: Waiting to see when he's going to be transported down
- 7:47Speaker 5: for arraignment in Manhattan. But my nephew doing well. But, again,
- 7:51Speaker 5: it's under that category, random attack. There's no way you
- 7:55Speaker 5: could make rhyme or reason of it. And this comes
- 7:57Speaker 5: on the heels.
- 7:58Speaker 2: In Brighton Beach. We're speaking of beaches. A 90-year-old woman.
- 8:02Speaker 5: Is walking on the street, 930 in the morning, Brighton
- 8:05Speaker 5: Beach 5th, busy thoroughfare. And this emotionally disturbed black guy
- 8:11Speaker 5: comes up to the garbage can. He sees an old
- 8:14Speaker 5: baby carriage that's there with garbage, and he.
- 8:16Speaker 2: Picks it up. He slams her in the back of
- 8:18Speaker 2: the head. She goes down. Luckily, she survives. She's at
- 8:21Speaker 2: Coney Island Hospital. He fled.
- 8:23Speaker 1: Yeah, what a coward that guy was. What a coward.
- 8:26Speaker 1: Because not only was it an elderly woman, he walked up.
- 8:29Speaker 1: He walked towards her, then went behind her, and then
- 8:32Speaker 1: hit her from behind. What an absolute coward.
- 8:36Speaker 4: And you know, you were saying how these are really busy,
- 8:39Speaker 4: busy areas of the city. We're not talking a desolate
- 8:43Speaker 4: back alley. Because people ask me all the time, do
- 8:46Speaker 4: you feel safe when you're in the city? And I'm like, yeah,
- 8:48Speaker 4: I do.
- 8:49Speaker 2: Because I feel like I'm in a populated area.
- 8:51Speaker 4: What's going to happen to me in the middle of
- 8:52Speaker 4: Times Square? I know that sounds crazy, but I feel
- 8:55Speaker 4: like there's so many people around, like I'll be safe.
- 8:58Speaker 2: But obviously not.
- 9:01Speaker 1: No, remember a couple of years ago, who was the
- 9:03Speaker 1: guy that was just going around, the mentally ill guy,
- 9:06Speaker 1: killing people? They didn't know who it was at first.
- 9:10Speaker 1: That was just a couple of years ago. I've got
- 9:12Speaker 1: to look up the information on that because.
- 9:14Speaker 2: I'm sure people remember.
- 9:15Speaker 5: Let me give you some dreary stats. Increasingly, these emotionally
- 9:20Speaker 5: disturbed persons, and that's what they are. They're not on
- 9:23Speaker 5: medication or they're not in a psychiatric facility. The assaults
- 9:28Speaker 5: against those who are 65 plus, I think that includes
- 9:31Speaker 5: me and Larry, not you, Natalie, have skyrocketed.
- 9:35Speaker 2: Since 2018, 143%.
- 9:38Speaker 1: Wow.
- 9:38Speaker 2: This never used to happen.
- 9:42Speaker 5: An elderly person, by golly, a whole community, if they
- 9:45Speaker 5: saw an elderly person being assaulted, everybody would come out
- 9:49Speaker 5: of the stores, the streets. They'd give that guy a
- 9:51Speaker 5: beat down. There'd be nothing left of him when the
- 9:53Speaker 5: cops arrived. Now, this was busy in the morning. This
- 9:59Speaker 5: is 945 on Brighton Fifth Street, main thoroughfare underneath the yell,
- 10:04Speaker 5: the subway, and nobody came out and intervened. You know,
- 10:08Speaker 5: they helped her afterwards when the EMTs came and brought
- 10:12Speaker 5: her to Coney Island Hospital.
- 10:13Speaker 2: But it's not like it used to be. That neighborhood
- 10:15Speaker 2: years ago, nearby Bensonhurst.
- 10:18Speaker 5: Bay Ridge, No way. You attacked an elderly person. You're
- 10:22Speaker 5: dealing with 20, 25 people out there trying to kill you.
- 10:26Speaker 5: That person would look forward to the arrival of the
- 10:29Speaker 5: police to save them from the outraged citizenry who didn't
- 10:32Speaker 5: care if you were EDP or this was just a, quote,
- 10:35Speaker 5: random attack.
- 10:36Speaker 2: They'd give you a beat down. Yeah, now everybody just
- 10:38Speaker 2: looks the other way.
- 10:39Speaker 1: By the way, that was in November of 2024, the
- 10:43Speaker 1: random murders. Do you remember that homeless guy? His name's
- 10:46Speaker 1: Ramon Rivera. 51-year-old homeless man, mental problems, was going around
- 10:52Speaker 1: and killing people, stabbing them to death all the way
- 10:56Speaker 1: through Manhattan. And what gets done? It happens, it's over,
- 11:02Speaker 1: and then nothing. No solution until the next one happens.
- 11:06Speaker 1: And it's just a continuous cycle.
- 11:08Speaker 5: Although the one thing that's changed, and I haven't quite
- 11:10Speaker 5: yet figured it out, If you notice, almost all these
- 11:13Speaker 5: crimes are with knives, straight edge razors or box cutters.
- 11:18Speaker 5: Very few of them are with guns. And it's not
- 11:20Speaker 5: because they're doing stop and frisk. I can tell you
- 11:23Speaker 5: the cops are not doing stop and frisk. Got to
- 11:25Speaker 5: say to yourself, how come so few guns and plenty
- 11:28Speaker 5: of guns out there? And now they got these ghost guns,
- 11:31Speaker 5: which you can manufacture yourself with a computer and they
- 11:34Speaker 5: can't be traced.
- 11:35Speaker 2: Can't be traced.
- 11:36Speaker 1: Yeah, we should be talking more about this because this
- 11:39Speaker 1: is a huge problem over the next few weeks. But
- 11:41Speaker 1: right now, a woman that was once named the greatest
- 11:46Speaker 1: voice in America has died. Plus, you have a chance
- 11:50Speaker 1: to see Air Supply at 825. We have some sad news.
- 11:55Speaker 1: Gloria Steinem, the feminist crusader who galvanized the modern women's movement,
- 12:00Speaker 1: has died in New York City. She was 92 years old.
- 12:03Speaker 2: The death....
- 12:06Speaker 1: Was announced on social media, didn't give a cause of
- 12:09Speaker 1: the death. It said that Ms. Steinem died peacefully at home,
- 12:13Speaker 1: surrounded by loved ones. You remember she used to call
- 12:17Speaker 1: herself an entrepreneur of social change. She helped usher in
- 12:23Speaker 1: sweeping cultural transformations. She was The face of the women's movement. Yeah,
- 12:28Speaker 1: the now crowd.
- 12:29Speaker 5: But tomorrow, when we talk a little bit more in length,
- 12:32Speaker 5: I'll explain how she made her bones as a CIA
- 12:35Speaker 5: agent undercover over in the European continent during the Cold War.
- 12:43Speaker 2: Wow.
- 12:43Speaker 5: You talk about a honeypot back then because she was
- 12:46Speaker 5: a good looker, a real good looker.
- 12:48Speaker 2: Yeah, but a man.
- 12:50Speaker 1: She was maybe, for a time there, if not the
- 12:53Speaker 1: most famous woman in the world, one of the most
- 12:55Speaker 1: famous people in the world. So, yeah, we'll talk more
- 12:58Speaker 1: about that tomorrow. But I wanted to pass it along
- 13:01Speaker 1: to you that Gloria Steinem died in New York City today.
- 13:05Speaker 1: She was 92 years old. Now, let's talk about another
- 13:09Speaker 1: person that died that isn't quite as famous, but should be.
- 13:13Speaker 1: Her name is Cassandra Wilson. She's won several Grammys. She
- 13:17Speaker 1: is a jazz singer, but also she sung country. She
- 13:21Speaker 1: sung rock. Everybody loved her. You know what she was?
- 13:24Speaker 1: She was the musician's musician. All of the rock stars
- 13:28Speaker 1: wanted to get Cassandra Wilson to sing one of her
- 13:30Speaker 1: songs or perform with her. Everybody wanted Cassandra Wilson's voice
- 13:35Speaker 1: to be part of their albums. As a matter of fact,
- 13:37Speaker 1: it says here she was part of 72 albums, not
- 13:41Speaker 1: all her own. Here, I'll give you a sample of
- 13:44Speaker 1: her voice. She died today, by the way, at the
- 13:47Speaker 1: age of 70. At one time, in 2001, Time magazine
- 13:52Speaker 1: announced that she had the best voice in America. Here
- 13:55Speaker 1: she is singing Harvest Moon by Neil Young. Live on
- 13:58Speaker 1: with her songs. Cassandra Wilson, dead at the age of 70.
- 14:04Speaker 1: Now let's get to some talkbacks. We saved one of
- 14:06Speaker 1: the talkbacks from yesterday because it's going to spur a
- 14:10Speaker 1: bigger conversation.
- 14:11Speaker 2: And so here it is.
- 14:14Speaker 3: Okay, Larry, now you're debating whether or not she really
- 14:17Speaker 3: tried to commit suicide.
- 14:18Speaker 5: Are you serious, Larry?
- 14:20Speaker 4: Really?
- 14:20Speaker 3: Okay, let's try it this way. Give me a motive
- 14:24Speaker 3: for why she would want to kill three children other
- 14:27Speaker 3: than being psychotically crazy. Did she get money out of
- 14:32Speaker 3: a will? Was she having an affair like Susan Smith
- 14:36Speaker 3: that drowned her kids? and wanted to get out of it. No,
- 14:39Speaker 3: there is no other motive other than crazy.
- 14:42Speaker 1: Well, let's talk back talking about Lindsay Clancy. And there
- 14:47Speaker 1: are a lot of women, by the way, that are
- 14:51Speaker 1: extremely emotional about the killing. And there's a lot of
- 14:54Speaker 1: women that I didn't know until recently have gone through
- 14:58Speaker 1: postpartum depression. And they have reached out to me and
- 15:03Speaker 1: talked about the fact that it is a, a deep
- 15:06Speaker 1: darkness sometimes that you have to fight. But you know what?
- 15:10Speaker 1: All of those women, they fought it. All of those
- 15:13Speaker 1: women survived it. None of those women killed their own children,
- 15:18Speaker 1: let alone three of them. None of those women plotted
- 15:23Speaker 1: those murders, was very meticulous about how it was going
- 15:28Speaker 1: to be done, where it was going to be done,
- 15:30Speaker 1: how to get the husband out of the house, how
- 15:31Speaker 1: to make sure he didn't come back.
- 15:34Speaker 2: So crazy? Yeah, maybe.
- 15:36Speaker 1: I mean, you have to be crazy to kill your
- 15:39Speaker 1: three children. But I want to take the focus off
- 15:42Speaker 1: her for a second. What about the three children that
- 15:45Speaker 1: don't have a life to live right now? A five-year-old,
- 15:48Speaker 1: a three-year-old, or an eight-month-old choked to death by their
- 15:52Speaker 1: own mother. I'm sorry, that's the only three people I'm
- 15:56Speaker 1: thinking about in all of this, and they deserve justice.
- 16:01Speaker 1: We're going to be talking more about it coming up.
- 16:04Speaker 5: Well, is it fair to jump to the conclusion that
- 16:06Speaker 5: you will not be wearing a pink shirt tomorrow when
- 16:09Speaker 5: they may actually call it a mistrial?
- 16:13Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they're going to be calling it a
- 16:14Speaker 1: mistrial today, to tell you the truth. But no, I
- 16:17Speaker 1: won't be wearing a pink shirt. I will just feel
- 16:20Speaker 1: woeful about the criminal justice system that let a mass
- 16:23Speaker 1: murderer free because a lot of women have been through
- 16:27Speaker 1: postpartum depression and had feelings for her. And I just
- 16:32Speaker 1: want to remind those women that you also should have
- 16:34Speaker 1: feelings for the three children.
- 16:37Speaker 2: All right.
- 16:37Speaker 1: Now let's get to Daria Albinger with the 630 News.
- 16:40Speaker 2: Daria. Morning, guys.
- 16:41Speaker 8: We're going to start out the way we have so
- 16:43Speaker 8: many days this summer with a weather alert. City storm
- 16:46Speaker 8: emergency plan is in effect for the third day, if
- 16:49Speaker 8: you're counting. And a reminder that heavy rain today could
- 16:52Speaker 8: cause some localized flooding. But we get through today. It's
- 16:54Speaker 8: going to get a lot better. President Trump says a
- 16:57Speaker 8: deal with Venezuela will help bring down gas prices, but
- 17:00Speaker 8: probably not in time for Labor Day weekend travel. AAA
- 17:03Speaker 8: spokeswoman Ayesha Diaz.
- 17:05Speaker 9: Gasoline prices are still high, and we just hit a
- 17:07Speaker 9: record in August as the highest August on record at
- 17:11Speaker 9: the pump, and it surpassed August 2022. The monthly average
- 17:15Speaker 9: then was $ 3. 97, and this past August, the monthly average dropped.
- 17:18Speaker 9: was $ 4.
- 17:18Speaker 1: 07.
- 17:19Speaker 9: So will they start coming down? Again, it's going to
- 17:22Speaker 9: depend on winter blend gasoline hitting the market and gasoline
- 17:25Speaker 9: demand coming down.
- 17:26Speaker 8: The AAA paying the national average at $ 4. 14 a gallon.
- 17:30Speaker 8: We're paying a little more than that here. $ 4. 26 in
- 17:32Speaker 8: New York on the average, $ 4. 27 in Connecticut, and $ 4. 24
- 17:36Speaker 8: in New Jersey. The airports will also be busy starting today,

- 17:52Speaker 8: Trump's latest effort to restrict birthright citizenship, his executive order
- 17:56Speaker 8: prohibiting it to babies born in the U.S. to non-citizens.
- 18:00Speaker 8: A judge in Maryland yesterday ruling that no presidential order
- 18:03Speaker 8: can undo what the Supreme Court has already done. The
- 18:07Speaker 8: FDNY is rededicating a memorial plaque ahead of the 25th
- 18:10Speaker 8: anniversary of the 9-11 attacks.
- 18:12Speaker 6: Fire officials unveiled 36 new names of first responders who
- 18:15Speaker 6: passed away over the last year.
- 18:17Speaker 5: These are FDNY members who have succumbed to their illnesses
- 18:21Speaker 5: as part of the rescue and recovery at the World
- 18:24Speaker 5: Trade Center.
- 18:24Speaker 6: Fire Commissioner Lillian Bonsignor said the tragedy did not end

- 18:50Speaker 6: at once. I'm Daria Albinger on 710 WOR.
- 18:53Speaker 3: All right.
- 18:53Speaker 2: Thank you, Daria.
- 18:55Speaker 1: Well, Mikey Sherrill, who used to claim she was a moderate,
- 18:58Speaker 1: has turned out to be a far left whack job.
- 19:02Speaker 1: She now is asking for money in New Jersey, millions
- 19:06Speaker 1: of dollars for the defense fund of those who are
- 19:10Speaker 1: housed at Delaney Hall, people who shouldn't be in this country.
- 19:15Speaker 1: We're going to talk more about that when we come
- 19:17Speaker 1: right back. Our iHeartRadio Music Festival, presented by Capital One,
- 19:22Speaker 1: is back, featuring live performances by Benson Boone, the Goo
- 19:25Speaker 1: Goo Dolls, Kenny Chesney, Laney Wilson, and much more, September

- 19:37Speaker 1: on iHeartRadio, you could be there. Three chances every weekday
- 19:43Speaker 1: for you to win a trip for two, plus $ 1, 000

- 19:49Speaker 1: You have to text in, and win happens at 9 a.m.
- 19:54Speaker 1: 9 a.m. today on 710WOR. Sorry that didn't get a
- 19:59Speaker 1: lot of coverage locally, but should have. An illegal immigrant
- 20:03Speaker 1: from Guatemala has been charged with manslaughter and will be
- 20:07Speaker 1: deported after crashing into a car with a mother and
- 20:12Speaker 1: two children, killing the nine-month-old. She did not have a
- 20:16Speaker 1: driver's license. She allegedly borrowed the car. So I'm pointing
- 20:21Speaker 1: that out because of something that Governor Mikey Sherrill is doing.
- 20:27Speaker 1: Governor Mikey Sherrill, who you remember when she ran for Congress,
- 20:30Speaker 1: she was a moderate. She had to because of the
- 20:33Speaker 1: district she was running in, but she was a moderate. Now,
- 20:36Speaker 1: all of a sudden, she's far left, almost socialist loony.
- 20:40Speaker 1: And she now wants the legal defense fund for those
- 20:46Speaker 1: who can't afford their own defense to have more money.
- 20:52Speaker 1: It was $ 8 million in that defense fund, but she
- 20:55Speaker 1: wants to add another $ 12 million.
- 20:57Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, it was just approved.
- 21:00Speaker 1: To put another $ 12 million on, more than doubling that
- 21:03Speaker 1: defense fund. Why does she want to more than double it?
- 21:06Speaker 1: For the people that are at Delaney Hall. The people
- 21:10Speaker 1: who are here illegally in this country but can't afford
- 21:13Speaker 1: their own defense. She wants taxpayer money. Remember when she
- 21:20Speaker 1: promised that the electricity bills were going to go down,
- 21:23Speaker 1: all the power bills were going to go down?
- 21:24Speaker 2: They've gone way up.
- 21:25Speaker 1: Remember she promised the property taxes were going to go down?
- 21:29Speaker 1: They've gone way up. But you know where your money's going?
- 21:34Speaker 1: It's going for a defense fund for people who are
- 21:37Speaker 1: here illegally, many of them who have been taken by
- 21:41Speaker 1: ICE and are now at Delaney Hall.
- 21:44Speaker 2: You know what?
- 21:44Speaker 1: There's a new hero that's coming up. from the political
- 21:50Speaker 1: shrubs in New Jersey. Her name is Dawn Fantasia. And
- 21:54Speaker 1: I keep hearing her name over and over again. She's
- 21:57Speaker 1: a Republican conservative. She's from Sussex County and part of
- 22:00Speaker 1: Morris County. And she got up and was outraged on
- 22:05Speaker 1: the floor of the assembly.
- 22:06Speaker 10: We have people that are in that facility. We have
- 22:10Speaker 10: people in federal immigration detention facilities Like that poor lady,
- 22:16Speaker 10: Deborah Colum from Tom's River, who gets set on fire
- 22:20Speaker 10: in the subway by a criminal illegal migrant released over
- 22:24Speaker 10: and over. We have the little eight-year-old girl in Teaneck
- 22:26Speaker 10: gets cracked in the head, metal plates and screws in
- 22:29Speaker 10: her head from a serial rock thrower who was left
- 22:32Speaker 10: out over and over and over. And he also has
- 22:34Speaker 10: a penchant for assaulting police, too. So he's a great guy,
- 22:37Speaker 10: but we let him.
- 22:38Speaker 5: Out, right?
- 22:39Speaker 1: There's so many of those stories. She went on and
- 22:42Speaker 1: on and on. She had about seven of them. But
- 22:46Speaker 1: it does seem like the Democratic Party loves those who
- 22:51Speaker 1: are here illegally a lot more than they do citizens
- 22:54Speaker 1: because they want special rules for them. They seem to
- 22:58Speaker 1: love criminals, too. Let them out of jail all the time.
- 23:02Speaker 1: No cash bail. But Dawn Fantasia has a really good
- 23:05Speaker 1: idea about this fund, and she's She's introduced a bill,
- 23:07Speaker 1: and watch, the Democrats won't even put it up for
- 23:09Speaker 1: a vote. She's introduced a bill saying, how about we
- 23:13Speaker 1: take some of the money from that fund, if you're
- 23:15Speaker 1: going to have this fund, take some of the money
- 23:17Speaker 1: and give it to the victims of crimes from those
- 23:21Speaker 1: who are here illegally.
- 23:22Speaker 11: The money should actually go to a victim fund for
- 23:27Speaker 11: families of the victims or victims who survive, for those
- 23:31Speaker 11: who are victimized by people who are not in.
- 23:33Speaker 10: This country legally.
- 23:35Speaker 1: I just don't understand it, Curtis. I didn't understand it
- 23:38Speaker 1: when President Biden was just allowing everybody into the country
- 23:42Speaker 1: that we had anywhere from 6 million up to 10
- 23:45Speaker 1: million coming over the border because there were so many getaways.
- 23:49Speaker 1: And now, now it does seem like one of the
- 23:54Speaker 1: major credos of the Democratic Party is, OK, now that
- 23:58Speaker 1: they're here, they're allowed to do anything. Not only do
- 24:00Speaker 1: we have to pay for them, they're allowed to do
- 24:03Speaker 1: anything they want.
- 24:04Speaker 5: Well, Dawn, the elected official is so right. She mentioned
- 24:08Speaker 5: a woman was burnt alive on the F train in
- 24:11Speaker 5: New York City was from Tom's River, emotionally disturbed by
- 24:15Speaker 5: the time that part of her life came from an
- 24:17Speaker 5: illegal Guatemalan that we were housing at $ 400 a night
- 24:21Speaker 5: in East New York. They don't even mention her name
- 24:24Speaker 5: in New York City. You don't never even hear her name.
- 24:28Speaker 5: So I want to give props to Dawn for that. Also,
- 24:30Speaker 5: you have recall in the state of New Jersey. Very
- 24:33Speaker 5: difficult to do. The way the politicians do it is
- 24:35Speaker 5: you got to go out and get signatures to match
- 24:38Speaker 5: a number that voted in the last gubernatorial election. It's
- 24:41Speaker 5: so excessive. But that's why every state needs recall, because
- 24:45Speaker 5: if there is enough outrage... You can frighten a governor
- 24:50Speaker 5: into potentially doing recall. You can't do it in New Jersey.
- 24:53Speaker 5: They tried to do it against Corzine. I think it
- 24:55Speaker 5: crashed and burned. But hey, resurrect that because right now
- 25:00Speaker 5: they think they can do this for impunity until they
- 25:03Speaker 5: have to run for reelection.
- 25:04Speaker 1: But explain to me how that is a winning issue.
- 25:09Speaker 1: Because it must not just be the politicians. They must
- 25:11Speaker 1: have polled this. They must know that there's a lot
- 25:14Speaker 1: of people that support these immigrants and believe these immigrants
- 25:17Speaker 1: should be given money, even the criminals, and they should
- 25:20Speaker 1: stay in the country.
- 25:21Speaker 2: Well, let me give you the latest.
- 25:22Speaker 5: Route 130, 80 miles south of New Brunswick, there was
- 25:28Speaker 5: a pursuit by ICE. They had an illegal alien. He
- 25:30Speaker 5: was in his car. He wouldn't stop after they had
- 25:33Speaker 5: busted his window open. They were going to pull him out.
- 25:36Speaker 5: And he gets into a high-speed chase. It's a four-lane
- 25:39Speaker 5: highway there, Route 130. I've been on it a few times.
- 25:42Speaker 5: Heavily trafficked, 7.30 in the morning. And he crashes into
- 25:46Speaker 5: the car of a dermatologist who happens to be married
- 25:51Speaker 5: to the mayor of East Brunswick, Brad Cohen. She's injured.
- 25:55Speaker 5: She's taken to the hospital. They eventually catch the illegal alien.
- 25:59Speaker 5: But the mayor of East Brunswick, Brad Cohen, says nothing
- 26:03Speaker 5: about His wife was almost killed by the illegal alien
- 26:07Speaker 5: who would not stop and got into a high-speed chase. Now,
- 26:12Speaker 5: it's probably one of two reasons. He wants his own
- 26:16Speaker 5: focus on this because he realizes, according to internal polls,
- 26:20Speaker 5: it would be great, you know, if he decried ICE
- 26:24Speaker 5: instead of the illegal crazy who nearly killed his wife.
- 26:28Speaker 5: Or some lawyers have contacted him, Larry. This is probably
- 26:32Speaker 5: what it is. Don't say anything. What a lawsuit you
- 26:35Speaker 5: have against the federal government. Just tell your wife to
- 26:38Speaker 5: say she's impotent, she's incontinent, she has nightmares, she can't
- 26:42Speaker 5: drive a car again. And I don't know what you
- 26:44Speaker 5: make as East Brunswick mayor, probably not a lot. But Brad,
- 26:48Speaker 5: you and your wife are going to have quite a payday.
- 26:53Speaker 5: Let's see how this works out, Larry. Oh, excuse me
- 26:58Speaker 5: right there. Oh, guess what? They were all paying tribute
- 27:02Speaker 5: to Al Slim Shady Sharpton kissing what used to be
- 27:04Speaker 5: a big tuchus at the Red Rooster when Natalie was
- 27:08Speaker 5: upset she wasn't invited.
- 27:10Speaker 2: Oof-ah! We'll certainly let you know about that coming up next.
- 27:13Speaker 2: I want to tell you a story.
- 27:14Speaker 1: A mother was driving back from a birthday party in Rialto,
- 27:18Speaker 1: California when her three-year-old son, Matthias, started to vomit. He
- 27:26Speaker 1: choked on the blockage of his vomit. He stopped breathing.
- 27:30Speaker 1: She did everything. She tried to clear his throat. She
- 27:33Speaker 1: patted him on the back. She even tried to give
- 27:35Speaker 1: him a three-year-old, the Heimlich. It doesn't work on a three-year-old.
- 27:39Speaker 1: So the mother pulled over and called 911. Rialto, California
- 27:45Speaker 1: police showed up. And they had a life back in
- 27:50Speaker 1: the squad car. They saved that little boy's life. it
- 27:55Speaker 1: immediately just sucked all the blockage out of his throat.
- 28:00Speaker 1: Nothing else worked. Seconds mattered. They got there right in
- 28:05Speaker 1: time and they saved a life. Every squad car in
- 28:09Speaker 1: the country should have a life back. Every restaurant in
- 28:14Speaker 1: the country should have a life back. Every cafeteria at
- 28:18Speaker 1: a school should have a life back. This is the
- 28:23Speaker 1: Only FDA-authorized suction anti-choking device to be used for second-line
- 28:29Speaker 1: treatment like this great mother did. She tried to save
- 28:32Speaker 1: her son herself, but she needed LifeVac. Sometimes everything else
- 28:36Speaker 1: doesn't work. That's why LifeVac is so amazing. It saved
- 28:40Speaker 1: that life. It saved 6,000 lives worldwide. Over 6,000 lives.
- 28:46Speaker 1: Those are families we're talking about. Real second chances.
- 28:51Speaker 2: Just think.
- 28:52Speaker 1: Matthias is now going to live on, hopefully, to old
- 28:56Speaker 1: age because of LifeVac. Preparedness matters. Having the right tool
- 29:01Speaker 1: nearby can make all the difference in the world. So
- 29:04Speaker 1: learn more about LifeVac today at LifeVac.net. That's LifeVac.net. Visit
- 29:09Speaker 1: LifeVac.net and see how you can be ready when it counts.
- 29:15Speaker 5: Wow remember the other morning i mentioned how was eric
- 29:18Speaker 5: adams swagger man with no plan 66 birthday and almost
- 29:22Speaker 5: nobody attended his um birthday party in new york city
- 29:27Speaker 5: he was seen actually wearing the same outfit in the
- 29:30Speaker 5: morning on his city bike the night after like you
- 29:34Speaker 5: know half in a bag you know having a bender
- 29:38Speaker 5: boy has he hit bad times. But the reason that
- 29:42Speaker 5: a lot of people didn't go there is because they
- 29:44Speaker 5: had to pay tribute to Al some shady Sharpton, who
- 29:47Speaker 5: was holding court at the Red Rooster where Natalie desperately
- 29:50Speaker 5: wants to go, famous restaurant in Harlem. And he was
- 29:54Speaker 5: being honored for 15 years of having his program that,
- 29:59Speaker 5: quite frankly, if you look at it, it's pretty bad,
- 30:01Speaker 5: pretty poorly done. At MS now, they call it. And
- 30:06Speaker 5: everybody had to be there. So you saw, obviously, Zorhan Mondami. Oh,
- 30:10Speaker 5: he's the mayor. He keeps every mayor in check. Bull feathers.
- 30:14Speaker 5: He used to get $ 10, 000 in cash from Bloomberg every
- 30:18Speaker 5: month when he was staying in the Carlisle Hotel just
- 30:21Speaker 5: to have no demonstrations, no justice, no peace. That's how
- 30:24Speaker 5: you keep him quiet. He doesn't give anybody's feet to
- 30:28Speaker 5: the fire.
- 30:28Speaker 2: But who came up?
- 30:31Speaker 5: Look, Kathy Hochul. who, again, is apt to say the
- 30:35Speaker 5: dumbest things imaginable. I don't know who her speechwriters are,
- 30:38Speaker 5: but maybe they should be looking for new employment. You
- 30:41Speaker 5: remember when she was saying, well, black kids, you know,
- 30:43Speaker 5: in the Bronx, they don't know about computers. What are
- 30:46Speaker 5: you talking about? Of course they know about computers. But
- 30:49Speaker 5: this one, maybe you can explain this, Larry, because you're
- 30:52Speaker 5: the big moviegoer along with Natalie, but I saw this movie.
- 30:56Speaker 5: She gets up to the microphone, packed crowd at the
- 30:59Speaker 5: Red Rooster, And she goes that Al Slim Shady Sharpton
- 31:04Speaker 5: is a living Forrest Gump.
- 31:08Speaker 2: He's been through.
- 31:09Speaker 5: Every major American story in our history over the last
- 31:14Speaker 5: 50 years. And I'm like saying, Forrest Gump? Forrest Gump
- 31:19Speaker 5: came out of Alabama. Now, originally Al Slim Shady Sharpton...
- 31:23Speaker 5: came out of Alabama. I remember his half-brother, who was
- 31:26Speaker 5: a big supporter of mine, who was from the Haiti.
- 31:29Speaker 2: Sharpton hated that. But other than that, what?
- 31:33Speaker 5: The Tawana Brawley case that he's never apologized for? That
- 31:37Speaker 5: created racial tension in the Mid-Hudson and spread all over
- 31:40Speaker 5: the country? The Crown Heights riot? We're facing the anniversary
- 31:43Speaker 5: of that now? And she's, oh, yeah, he's just like
- 31:46Speaker 5: Forrest Gump. Now, correct me if I'm wrong about Forrest Gump, remember?
- 31:51Speaker 5: Forrest Gump went through like three periods of history, if
- 31:55Speaker 5: I remember when he was in that show. He was
- 31:58Speaker 5: teaching Elvis how to dance. No way Al Slim Shady
- 32:02Speaker 5: Sharpton would have done that. He would have called Elvis
- 32:04Speaker 5: a racist.
- 32:06Speaker 2: You're talking about the best of them. He was mentally insufficient.
- 32:10Speaker 2: That's why I think it's an insult. A low IQ, right?
- 32:13Speaker 4: Yes.
- 32:14Speaker 2: Well, yes. Extremely low.
- 32:15Speaker 5: We know Sharpton. That's why I call him Sharpie. He
- 32:17Speaker 5: does not have a low IQ. Forrest Gump had a
- 32:20Speaker 5: kind heart. Oh, Al Slim Shady Sharpton does not have
- 32:23Speaker 5: a kind heart. And let's face it, Forrest Gump, when
- 32:26Speaker 5: I saw the movie, had a very optimistic view of life.
- 32:29Speaker 5: Tom Hanks, great role. You think Sharpton has an optimistic
- 32:34Speaker 5: view of life? He tells all black young people, oh,
- 32:37Speaker 5: it's all the deck is stacked against you. You know,
- 32:40Speaker 5: they're going to put you in a prison cell.
- 32:41Speaker 2: They're going to deprive you of a good education. Where
- 32:44Speaker 2: the hell did she come up with this one from?
- 32:46Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm trying to think. Maybe they both
- 32:49Speaker 1: believe that life is a box of chocolate. Maybe that's
- 32:52Speaker 1: what it is. I can't understand. I would love to
- 32:57Speaker 1: have been in the room when she said that, just
- 32:59Speaker 1: to see the looks on people's faces. Because it comes
- 33:03Speaker 1: off like an insult.
- 33:04Speaker 2: It is! If I'm Al Slim Shady Sharpton, I'm saying
- 33:09Speaker 2: to myself... You called me what? Forrest Gump? He called
- 33:16Speaker 2: him mentally challenged. That's what you did to his face. Well,
- 33:20Speaker 2: let's face it.
- 33:20Speaker 5: He got away with something in your business as a interviewer,
- 33:25Speaker 5: a person who's done a lot of interviews in your lifetime,
- 33:28Speaker 5: a very famous people, where he interviewed his choice for
- 33:31Speaker 5: vice president, the MSN Now choice, Giggles Harris. And he
- 33:38Speaker 5: charged her $ 250, 000 in cash up front of her campaign
- 33:42Speaker 5: and $ 250, 000 once was in the can.
- 33:45Speaker 2: Any other journalist would have been fired.
- 33:48Speaker 5: I'm assuming that if that information came to the forefront,
- 33:52Speaker 5: you're gone. There is no way you're ever going to
- 33:54Speaker 5: be interviewing anybody.
- 33:56Speaker 2: Instead, they're paying tribute.
- 33:57Speaker 5: MS Now, the CEO was there. We love you, Slim Shady.
- 34:02Speaker 5: His only regret, I would have written these lines for him.
- 34:05Speaker 5: That I was not like Charles Barkley and Serena Williams
- 34:09Speaker 5: to be able to promote Ozempic. I would have been
- 34:11Speaker 5: making millions instead of losing all this weight the natural way,
- 34:15Speaker 5: which somehow he has.
- 34:17Speaker 2: Remember, he did this all before Ozempic. He looks like
- 34:19Speaker 2: a bobblehead dog. He was taking something. You think so? Oh,
- 34:22Speaker 2: he was taking something.
- 34:23Speaker 1: If it had to be at least diet pills, right?
- 34:25Speaker 2: Don't you believe it?
- 34:27Speaker 4: Well, I know he went on a very strict, I think,
- 34:29Speaker 4: vegan diet, so I'm not sure. But I'm just so
- 34:33Speaker 4: depressed that you're telling me Red Rooster isn't worth going to.
- 34:36Speaker 2: Not. Natalie, come on. That's what you took out of
- 34:39Speaker 2: the story. Don't believe that. I'm going on the personal level.
- 34:42Speaker 5: There's nothing that stops you from jumping on the train
- 34:44Speaker 5: after one of our episodes in the morning and heading
