- 2:35Speaker 1: the air, but he was there every day with us,
- 2:37Speaker 1: and it was always an inspiration. You know, you're on
- 2:40Speaker 1: the air, but you can look over there and sitting

- 2:48Speaker 1: No less, Let's go to Rich and Myrtle Beach Rich,
- 2:50Speaker 1: how you doing?
- 2:51Speaker 3: And thanks Mark, that brings that good memories. I was
- 2:54Speaker 3: born in the Bronx. I remember seeing Nicky play you
- 2:56Speaker 3: some of those terrible Yankee teams in the yearly seventies
- 2:59Speaker 3: and late six He's you know this, George Santo's pardon
- 3:02Speaker 3: was the greatest fu to the Democrats Bloom and throw Biden,
- 3:06Speaker 3: all these plagiariyes and lion Democrats and Liberals, and it
- 3:10Speaker 3: was just a big, you know, f you to all
- 3:12Speaker 3: those people. Trump did an awesome thing by that. I
- 3:14Speaker 3: couldn't be happier for that guy, you know, Yeah, but
- 3:16Speaker 3: you know they've won't done the same thing. They've won't
- 3:18Speaker 3: done the exact same thing and got away with it.
- 3:20Speaker 1: No, he does a lot of these FEUs to the liberals,
- 3:22Speaker 1: but you got to be carey. You don't want to
- 3:23Speaker 1: do too many of them. But what do I know?
- 3:25Speaker 1: I mean, every time I tell him he's gone too far,
- 3:27Speaker 1: as too much, he always turns out to be right
- 3:30Speaker 1: in the end. Let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn. Vincent,
- 3:32Speaker 1: how you.
- 3:33Speaker 4: Doing, Good morning, Mark, Good morning Mara. As far as
- 3:36Speaker 4: George Santo's getting out of the joint after forty days,
- 3:40Speaker 4: he was in forty days in solitary confinement, as George
- 3:45Speaker 4: Santos said it, the cell had bed bugs and lice
- 3:50Speaker 4: and eating that crappy food. As you pointed out that,
- 3:53Speaker 4: I'm sure every cook and every handler in the kitchen,
- 3:59Speaker 4: you know, spit his food. So doing forty days in
- 4:03Speaker 4: solitary confinement is like doing four months and better. And
- 4:08Speaker 4: I believe he really got a good taste of no
- 4:12Speaker 4: pun intended, what it's like being in the joint, Mark,
- 4:17Speaker 4: I'm no fan of Andrew Cuomo. But in response to
- 4:21Speaker 4: what Zorn Mandani said at that stupid debate the other
- 4:25Speaker 4: night when he leans across the podium the table and goes,
- 4:30Speaker 4: how many mosques have you visited? Andrew? Well, conversely, Zoren,
- 4:36Speaker 4: how many synagogues have you gone into? Have you gone
- 4:40Speaker 4: into the biggest synagogue in New York City down in
- 4:42Speaker 4: the east the Parkway ware.
- 4:44Speaker 1: A satbox Vincent. That's a brilliant point. Why didn't Cuomo
- 4:48Speaker 1: think of that?
- 4:48Speaker 4: That's prob well, because his brain is as you said,
- 4:51Speaker 4: he's taken too many of those shots, and I think
- 4:54Speaker 4: it's actually shrinking the size of his brain, not only
- 4:58Speaker 4: is U.
- 5:00Speaker 1: Look at the picture.
- 5:00Speaker 4: Yeah, And another thing I want to say Saturday, I'm
- 5:04Speaker 4: listening to one of the shows up the dial, a
- 5:08Speaker 4: financial show, and this economist sometimes he's like, comes on
- 5:13Speaker 4: your show and the sick liberal that was thrown off
- 5:16Speaker 4: all the other shows at night, the over shows at night,
- 5:19Speaker 4: the guys about seventy four years old from the Bronx,
- 5:23Speaker 4: a Jewish liberal fins gets on the economist show. I'm
- 5:28Speaker 4: not going to mention his name and start screaming everything
- 5:32Speaker 4: in the world Trump is this that? And the other
- 5:34Speaker 4: and then the last one. Trump weaponizes the Justice Department
- 5:39Speaker 4: to go after his these individuals, and this economist says,
- 5:45Speaker 4: I'm against tariffs, and I'm also against weaponizing.
- 5:50Speaker 1: The Justice But let me just explain, that's not lawfair. Lawfairs.
- 5:53Speaker 1: When you get in lawfairs, when you get yeah, lawfairs,
- 5:56Speaker 1: when you' getting dieted in four cities at the same time,
- 5:58Speaker 1: that's law fare.
- 6:00Speaker 4: Can I say that he forgets to mention that all
- 6:03Speaker 4: these companies and the countries are putting twenty seven thirty
- 6:08Speaker 4: fifty percent tariffs on us. And also the fact that.
