- 0:12Speaker 2: to Crazy Mayor, Mom, Donnie and more coming up. Opening
- 0:17Speaker 2: Day to day Yankees Opening Day. They'll actually open in
- 0:21Speaker 2: San Francisco tonight at eight o'clock. You can't see it
- 0:24Speaker 2: on regular TV. It's only on Netflix. Netflix paying a
- 0:29Speaker 2: fortune for that. It's the first time that's ever happened.
- 0:32Speaker 2: Matt's opening day is tomorrow. That's here in New York.
- 0:34Speaker 2: That'll be at City Field. Weather is good for it's
- 0:39Speaker 2: a day game, right tomorrow. Yeah, weather's good for the daytime.
- 0:42Speaker 2: This may be rain tomorrow night, tomorrow night into Friday morning,
- 0:46Speaker 2: but opening day City Field tomorrow, that should be good.
- 0:49Speaker 2: So you remember Crazy Jack Smith, that weirdo, bug eyed
- 0:53Speaker 2: weirdo with the cape that they brought in from halfway
- 0:56Speaker 2: around the world. He's like a hit man they brought
- 0:58Speaker 2: in to get Trump and he's the guy that manufactured
- 1:01Speaker 2: this whole classified document scandal. Well he's back. He's releasing
- 1:06Speaker 2: parts of his report, his investigation, and they found that
- 1:11Speaker 2: President Trump took those classified documents. Now there's nothing in
- 1:17Speaker 2: there of any national security, nothing, nothing, nothing, because you remember,
- 1:21Speaker 2: first of all, Trump didn't really have any classified documents.
- 1:24Speaker 2: You remember the pictures of the hundreds and hundreds of
- 1:27Speaker 2: boxes all over the ballroom, on the stage. Remember the
- 1:32Speaker 2: picture in the storage room. Another hundred boxes of documents.
- 1:35Speaker 2: Remember the picture in the bathroom. Here's another fifty boxes
- 1:38Speaker 2: of documents. Well, Jack Smith rated mar A Lago. He
- 1:41Speaker 2: took every one of those boxes and he went through
- 1:44Speaker 2: every inch of the house, including Milania's bedroom. He went
- 1:49Speaker 2: through Baron Trump, the kid's bedroom. They went through Milania
- 1:54Speaker 2: Trump's underwear drawer, just like Polly Wallets and the Sopranos did.
- 1:59Speaker 2: And they went through everything, and all they found in
- 2:02Speaker 2: the end were thirty five classified documents. Now, if you
- 2:06Speaker 2: take thirty five classified documents and put them in a folder,
- 2:10Speaker 2: it's about one inch thick. So one inch of one
- 2:14Speaker 2: box had classified documents. All the rest had nothing in them.
- 2:19Speaker 2: And then Jack Smith and the sleazy Merrick Garland, the
- 2:23Speaker 2: whole Justice Department, the whole bide deministration. They looked at
- 2:26Speaker 2: the classified documents that Trump had and they found that
- 2:29Speaker 2: there was absolutely nothing in there of any significance. Now,
- 2:34Speaker 2: in Washington, d C. They overclassify everything. They'd put that
- 2:37Speaker 2: big red classified stamp on a lot of stuff that
- 2:42Speaker 2: means absolutely nothing. Sometimes it's just a weather report for
- 2:47Speaker 2: a battlefield, something like that. So they looked through everything.
- 2:50Speaker 2: There was nothing bad in there. That's why you've never
- 2:52Speaker 2: heard what they found. You've never heard what they found
- 2:55Speaker 2: because it's nothing of any significance. And the fact that
- 2:58Speaker 2: he only had thirty five classified documents one inch of
- 3:03Speaker 2: one box, you'd never heard that. Now. Biden, Joe Biden.
- 3:07Speaker 2: They caught him with eight thousand classified documents, eight thousand
- 3:13Speaker 2: classified documents at his house, at his office, at another office,
- 3:16Speaker 2: in his garage. And Biden when he took them, was
- 3:20Speaker 2: just a senator or a vice president, so he had
- 3:22Speaker 2: no authority to take the documents. When Trump took the documents,
- 3:26Speaker 2: he had all the legal authority he needed to take them.
- 3:29Speaker 2: He was president of the United States. They're his documents.
- 3:33Speaker 2: He has the power to unclassify them at any second.
- 3:37Speaker 2: So when the when Els in the Jacksmith report says
- 3:41Speaker 2: he stole the classified documents, well, it's impossible. They're his documents.
- 3:46Speaker 2: He's the president, he's in charge of the documents. They're his.
- 3:49Speaker 2: You can't steal from yourself. It's impossible, can't be done.
- 3:53Speaker 2: So this is Jamie Raskin knows you can hear this
- 3:56Speaker 2: story all over the fake news. For a couple of days.
- 3:59Speaker 2: It turned out he was using them for business purposes.
- 4:02Speaker 2: Now I don't know what the hell that me business purposes,
- 4:05Speaker 2: but their argument is that he showed them to people.
- 4:08Speaker 2: And that's the kind of thing Trump would do. He
- 4:10Speaker 2: does like to show you stuff. When you come into
- 4:11Speaker 2: his office, he shows you stuff. That's how he always
- 4:14Speaker 2: starts a meeting. He's got interesting things that you know.
- 4:18Speaker 2: Here's Tom Brady's a helmet he gave to me. Here's this.
- 4:21Speaker 2: He shows you all this stuff. And that's why. If
- 4:23Speaker 2: you notice in the White House where it used to
- 4:25Speaker 2: be a clean desk and some chairs, he's got stuff
- 4:28Speaker 2: all over the place, in cases, on the desk, on
- 4:31Speaker 2: the walls. He takes you around and he shows you
- 4:33Speaker 2: all this stuff. Hang on, I gotta blow my notes.
- 4:38Speaker 2: Allergies driving me crazy, So he just shows you a
- 4:42Speaker 2: bunch of stuff. So I would imagine down at Marlogo,
- 4:45Speaker 2: it was one of the things you want to see
- 4:46Speaker 2: some classified documents. A look at this, and they look
- 4:49Speaker 2: very impressive on the front. While the folder and big
- 4:52Speaker 2: red letters classified, top secret, highly classified. Then you open
- 4:56Speaker 2: it up, there's nothing in there. But that means business purposes,
- 5:02Speaker 2: but it's at mar A Lago. It's not really a
- 5:04Speaker 2: business purpose because you're just showing him to the jentas
- 5:07Speaker 2: of mar A Lago. The how are you that crowd
- 5:10Speaker 2: that's hanging around there. It's not a business purpose. But
- 5:13Speaker 2: you're gonna hear this story for a couple of days.
- 5:14Speaker 2: They'll try to make something out of it. Hey, let's
- 5:18Speaker 2: play this clip again. This is the crazy senator from
- 5:22Speaker 2: Chris from Connecticut, Chris Murphy, an awful guy. He slipped
- 5:28Speaker 2: and spoke the truth. Democrats are fighting for illegal immigrants.
- 5:32Speaker 2: They want illegals here. That's why they left the border
- 5:35Speaker 2: wide open when they could. They want all these illegals here.
- 5:37Speaker 2: That's who they're fighting for. Listen to Chris Murphy. He
- 5:40Speaker 2: actually slips and says it out loud.
- 5:42Speaker 3: That's been a failed play for twenty years. So you
- 5:44Speaker 3: are right that that has been the Democratic strategy for
- 5:47Speaker 3: thirty years maybe, and it has failed to deliver for
- 5:52Speaker 3: the people we care about most, the undocumented Americans that
- 5:56Speaker 3: are in this country.
- 5:57Speaker 2: Oh, he said it. That's who we care about the
- 6:00Speaker 2: the undocumented, the illegals. That's a big slip for him
- 6:03Speaker 2: to say, oh, hey, another fake news alert. There's that
- 6:07Speaker 2: convention taking place outside of Washington. It's called Sea Pack.
- 6:11Speaker 2: Every year they have the Sea Pack Convention. President Trump
- 6:14Speaker 2: is sometimes spoken of it through the years, other people
- 6:17Speaker 2: have it means absolutely nothing. It's a good thing. It's
- 6:20Speaker 2: just doesn't mean anything. It's a convention. You know how
- 6:23Speaker 2: they have those comic book conventions where all the fans
- 6:26Speaker 2: show up, and then they have those old TV star
- 6:29Speaker 2: conventions where you get to meet all these old TV
- 6:31Speaker 2: stars and get their autograph and they have the Star
- 6:33Speaker 2: Trek Convention. Well that's what this thing is for Republicans.
- 6:37Speaker 2: It's just it's a guy and his wife that holds
- 6:39Speaker 2: this thing every year and it's just a big convention
- 6:42Speaker 2: where you used to be called them autograph shows. Now
- 6:46Speaker 2: it takes selfies with people, so they try to get
- 6:48Speaker 2: you know, through the years, you'd go there, Ted Cruz
- 6:51Speaker 2: is speaking, and Tucker Carlson back when he meant something,
- 6:54Speaker 2: or the President Trump is even going to speak. Jd.
- 6:56Speaker 2: Vance is going to speak. So they're having it this year.
- 6:59Speaker 2: Nobody's going to show up President Trump's not going They'll
- 7:02Speaker 2: get some people, but not the big names. They won't
- 7:04Speaker 2: show up. This year means absolutely nothing. But at some
- 7:06Speaker 2: point during the seapack and the speeches, somebody might attack Trump,
- 7:12Speaker 2: and then you're gonna hear all over the fake news.
- 7:14Speaker 2: You're gonna hear the Megabasis torn apart, the Megabasis fighting
- 7:18Speaker 2: a civil war, and the MAGA seapack has nothing to
- 7:22Speaker 2: do with the Magabase, no connection to anything, but you're
- 7:26Speaker 2: just warning it. You're gonna hear about this for a
- 7:27Speaker 2: couple of days. They'll make a they'll make a big
- 7:29Speaker 2: deal out of it. Hey, Hey, speaking of television, speaking
- 7:33Speaker 2: of Connecticut, the television business is shrinking. People don't watch
- 7:38Speaker 2: television anymore. You know, the people think the radio business
- 7:41Speaker 2: is shrinking. You got more people listening to the radio
- 7:43Speaker 2: now than twenty years ago. Every day, sixty three million
- 7:47Speaker 2: listen to AM radio talk radio one hundred and fifty
- 7:51Speaker 2: nine million listen to AMFM radio one hundred and fifty
- 7:55Speaker 2: nine million. You know how many people watch network TV
- 7:58Speaker 2: twenty five million, that's it, twenty five million. So it's
- 8:05Speaker 2: shrinking and it's getting less all the time. So the
- 8:07Speaker 2: canceling shows you know, they just canceled the Access Hollywood.
- 8:10Speaker 2: They canceled this show, that show. The syndicated shows less
- 8:13Speaker 2: and less of them. So it's affecting Connecticut because in Stanford, Connecticut,
- 8:19Speaker 2: years ago, they decided to open a big studio there
- 8:21Speaker 2: where they could do all these shows they did. I'm
- 8:24Speaker 2: trying to remember. They did a lot of shows there.
- 8:26Speaker 2: I know that's where Access Hollywood was using it and
- 8:29Speaker 2: I think Maury Povich was using that for a while.
- 8:32Speaker 2: Jerry Springer used it, Steve Wilcose used it, Maury Povich. Yeah,
- 8:37Speaker 2: there were a bunch of shows there, a lot of
- 8:38Speaker 2: shows coming out of Stamford. Was an old theater, a
- 8:41Speaker 2: nice theater called the Rich Forum, NBC converted to a
- 8:45Speaker 2: TV studio. Not one reason they went all the way
- 8:47Speaker 2: up to Stamford to do all these TV shows. It's
- 8:49Speaker 2: non union. You could save a fortune, you can get
- 8:51Speaker 2: done cheaper. Well. Again, all these TV shows are getting canceled,
- 8:56Speaker 2: so they're closing the theater. That's it, it's done. No
- 9:00Speaker 2: more NBC TV studio in Stanford closing it down. I
- 9:03Speaker 2: guess it'll go back to being the Rich Forum. And
- 9:06Speaker 2: it's a very nice, beautiful concert venue. So actually you're
- 9:11Speaker 2: probably lucky. They're in Connecticut. In Stanford, you've got a
- 9:15Speaker 2: nice new concert venue. You know, everywhere all over the
- 9:18Speaker 2: Tri state area, all over the suburbs, you got these
- 9:20Speaker 2: beautiful little theaters and that's where all the acts play. Now,
- 9:23Speaker 2: you know, the Paramount and Huntington, the Ridgefield Playhouse, the
- 9:28Speaker 2: Paramount in this one in Westchester. And of course New
- 9:32Speaker 2: Jersey got a whole bunch of them, the New Jersey
- 9:35Speaker 2: and j Pack and the count Basy Theater. So you
- 9:38Speaker 2: get all these theaters all over the place. So you'll
- 9:40Speaker 2: get another one in Stanford. Now, crazy Mayor Mom, Donnie,
- 9:45Speaker 2: you remember all these Democrats that we yelled and screamed
- 9:47Speaker 2: about tariffs. They hate tariffs. Tariffs are going to destroy
- 9:49Speaker 2: the economy. If a business has to pay a tariff,
- 9:53Speaker 2: why they will raise their prices. It hurts everybody, It
- 9:56Speaker 2: hurts everybody's pocketbook. But nobody does more tariffs than the Democrats.
- 10:01Speaker 2: They love tariffs. Now they call it corporate tax. It's
- 10:06Speaker 2: the same thing. Actually it's worse. A tariff is not
- 10:09Speaker 2: as bad as a corporate tax, because if you put
- 10:11Speaker 2: a tariff on a product, the American company does not
- 10:15Speaker 2: really pay the whole tariff. Sometimes they pay none of it.
- 10:18Speaker 2: Sometimes the exporter pays it. But in every case, if
- 10:22Speaker 2: there's a tariff, the exporter has to pay some of it,
- 10:25Speaker 2: the middleman pay some of it, and the American company
- 10:28Speaker 2: has to pay some of it. But if you put
- 10:30Speaker 2: a corporate tax, the American company pays it all one
- 10:34Speaker 2: hundred percent. So it's worse than a tariff. It's the
- 10:37Speaker 2: biggest tariff of all, a corporate tax. Crazy mayor Mom
- 10:40Speaker 2: Donnie is talking about we already have the highest corporate
- 10:43Speaker 2: tax right now, Crazy Mayor Mom Donnie talking about raising it.
- 10:48Speaker 1: You know, I think that the two clearest ways to
- 10:50Speaker 1: raise that money is through the raising of the state's
- 10:53Speaker 1: corporate tax to mactions in New Jersey. I think that
- 10:55Speaker 1: a lot of this is still a case to be made,
- 10:57Speaker 1: whether it's the corporate tax or that it's the personal
- 10:58Speaker 1: income tax on those who make more than a million
- 11:00Speaker 1: dollars a year or more. I think that these are
- 11:03Speaker 1: the clearest ways. I've also said that if there are
- 11:05Speaker 1: other ways to raise this funding, the most important fact
- 11:07Speaker 1: is that we fund it now.
- 11:11Speaker 2: If you do this corporate tax, every company has to
- 11:15Speaker 2: raise the price of everything to match the tax. So
- 11:18Speaker 2: all it does is the price goes up and a
- 11:21Speaker 2: lot of companies move out, so you'll actually, in the
- 11:24Speaker 2: end get less revenue increase the cost to everybody. Now,
- 11:27Speaker 2: you could explain this to mom Donnie all day and night,
- 11:30Speaker 2: and he's not gonna len. He doesn't care. They don't care.
- 11:33Speaker 2: That's socialist, communist, democrat, left wing socialisty. It's all feelings.
- 11:39Speaker 2: They just feel. It feels good, it sounds good, It
- 11:41Speaker 2: makes them feel good to do. It doesn't work, it
- 11:44Speaker 2: doesn't matter, it feels good. They they really enjoy doing
- 11:47Speaker 2: that just makes them feel better. Hey, you know, there's
- 11:51Speaker 2: an article in the New York Times about once in
- 11:53Speaker 2: a while, they the New York Times is pretty bad
- 11:56Speaker 2: when it comes to news, it's just total fake news.
- 11:58Speaker 2: But they're not bad when it comes to the Louli's
- 11:59Speaker 2: little lifestyle things. And they write a piece about how
- 12:03Speaker 2: many older people are moving from Florida back to New York.
- 12:08Speaker 2: A lot of them coming back to New York as
- 12:10Speaker 2: they get old. You know, it used to be when
- 12:13Speaker 2: you get really old, you got to go to Florida,
- 12:15Speaker 2: as Seinfeld said, that's the law. But a lot of
- 12:18Speaker 2: them getting real old and the problem now. It was
- 12:22Speaker 2: different years ago. But now if you're living in Miami
- 12:24Speaker 2: or even Palm Beach or bulk it's a big city
- 12:27Speaker 2: with gridlock, with traffic, with crime. Right back in New York,
- 12:31Speaker 2: it's a I mean, Miami is a traffic nightmare. There's
- 12:34Speaker 2: a crime all over the place in Miami. It's a problem.
- 12:40Speaker 2: So it's just like New York, except they don't have
- 12:42Speaker 2: the great doctors we have. They don't have all the
- 12:44Speaker 2: stuff we have. So there's a lot of older people
- 12:46Speaker 2: actually moving back to New York better healthcare, better medical
- 12:49Speaker 2: you know, all those people down there. When you get
- 12:51Speaker 2: really God forbid of a real medical problem, they have
- 12:54Speaker 2: to come running back to New York for a real doctor.
- 12:58Speaker 2: So you're starting to see and it's happened before. When
- 13:02Speaker 2: Florida became the hottest place in the world in the
- 13:04Speaker 2: late fifties early sixties, no hotter place in America. By
- 13:08Speaker 2: the end of the decade, it was dead and it
- 13:10Speaker 2: became a ghetto. In Miami, same thing happened in the eighties.
- 13:13Speaker 2: It got revived when Miamivice came along. They got hot again.
- 13:17Speaker 2: Every but people all flocking to Miami by the end
- 13:21Speaker 2: of the decade, it was a mess again, a ghetto,
- 13:24Speaker 2: completely bad all over again. So you may see that
- 13:28Speaker 2: happen again. By the end of this decade, you might
- 13:30Speaker 2: see an exodus start from Florida. Now the difference is
- 13:34Speaker 2: Palm Beach, sleepy little Palm Beach. It's filling up with
- 13:38Speaker 2: more restaurants, and right across is West Palm Beach that
- 13:42Speaker 2: is becoming a major city. The biggest, biggest, biggest developers,
- 13:46Speaker 2: Steve Roth related all those they're all down there building skyscrapers,
- 13:50Speaker 2: building you know, the Hudson Yards. They're building like fifty
- 13:52Speaker 2: of those down there. There's going to be tons of
- 13:56Speaker 2: people moving in. They're talking about creating a billionaire's row.
- 13:59Speaker 2: This is Wes Palm Beach. Now, they're making one huge mistake.
- 14:03Speaker 2: They do this every so often, though they did it
- 14:06Speaker 2: in Austin, Texas. They do all of this, but they
- 14:10Speaker 2: forget to put in more roads. So it's the same
- 14:13Speaker 2: amount of roads with like a million more people and
- 14:16Speaker 2: a thousand more buildings, and all of a sudden, it's
- 14:18Speaker 2: gridlock everywhere. You can't move. Palm Beach has the greatest
- 14:21Speaker 2: airport because it's a little, tiny air the little simple airport.
- 14:25Speaker 2: They're doing all this without doubling or tripling the size
- 14:28Speaker 2: of the airport before they do this. So Palm Beach,
- 14:31Speaker 2: a lot of people are worried is going to become
- 14:32Speaker 2: a traffic nightmare West Palm Beach. Hey, we'll take some calls.
- 14:36Speaker 2: Next eight hundred three two one zero seven. Town is
- 14:40Speaker 2: the number. Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten. Hey,
