  Speaker 1: Bill Gates. Bad day for him yesterday, although he handled
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: himself pretty well. We'll get to a Ran, of course,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: and a whole lot more Nicks last night, and many
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: people gave up and went to sleep. Why did that
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: game run so late? Usually that ends about eleven ten
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: or so. It went a little later, a little longer.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: People that have to get up early went to sleep
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: and a lot of people, Yeah, I mean it was
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: it was bad. I mean the Knicks were getting killed
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: for most of the game. Just thought it wasn't going
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: to turn out well and left and you saw some
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: of the celebrities in the seats were on their phone
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: and you might say, well they really lost interest around that. No,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: they're actually texting their drivers when to pick them up,
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: where to pick them up. But the ending unbelievable, this
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: come from behind. The Spurs totally dominant the first half,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: third quarter, pretty good, but then they kind of decided
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: to just you know, just try to melt down the
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: clock and started to coast a little and the Knicks
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: came to life, and of course the dramatic ending bus.
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: Fires up, shuts gone, It's gone, It's gone.
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: With one point too.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: Bernado, let's take the lead, Oh bouts, little seven, little sex.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: A most unbelievable moment.
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: That's that it's.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: Over, the greatest comeback in NBA pie off history.
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: But lets pull off. But Lotle can come back and
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: lead at three games to.
• 2:22
  Speaker 5: London, no one more away from up title.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: Now. The amazing thing when that happened, you they shut
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: shot the celebrities and that you could see Taylor Swift
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: jumping up and down, dancing. They cut the Seinfeld arms
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: jumping up and down, waving his arms. They cut to
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Larry David just standing there, frozen, no expression. Nothing is
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: going to get him to look excited that. If that
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: didn't get him excited, nothing will. But it was a great, great,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: great night, and quite a victory there at the So
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: the next game is Saturday night, San Antonio. That's a
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: better place to win. Let him win in San Antonio.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: Maybe maybe less rioting here as a result. Now, after
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: the game, of course, there was a lot of crazy fans.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: They were jumping up and down, stomping on the hoods
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: of cars, and some mayhem. I think about fifty people
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: were arrested for some reason. These crazy the ones that
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: were rioting and causing trouble. Palestinian flags. They're waving Palestinian flags.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: What the hell does this have to do with the Knicks.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: You maybe have seen that video. Some influencer Seinfeld is
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: coming out and he gets right in his path, right
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: in his face with the microphone, and he said, what
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: about a free Palestine? What do you think about a
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: free Palestine? And Seinfeld said, it doesn't exist, there is
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: no Palestine, so and just kept walking. For some reason,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: they started a zero in on Seinfeld about Palestine. He's
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: getting hit with this wherever he goes hit with Israel store.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: I don't know why. I mean, well, yeah, he's Jewish,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: but so most comedians. But I don't know why for
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: some reason to keep going after Seinfeld on that, which
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: is silly because obviously he loves Israel. But he's also
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: a guy who has never, in fifty years in front
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: of a camera and a microphone ever had a political
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: thought ever. So he's certainly not going to have anything there.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: But it was an amazing, amazing night for the Knicks.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: So tonight we're going to hit Iran. The President actually
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: announcing it, we will hit Iran tonight. He didn't say
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: it was definitely tonight, but he said, we'll take carg Island.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: That is the big oil facility of Iran. That's where
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: they store the oil, that's where they export the oil.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: They've got oil wells all over the place, but it
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: all comes to carg Island. Their entire oil industry goes
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: through carg Island. If we were to blow that up,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: that'd be the end of the oil industry in Iran.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: It would take for many, many, many many months, maybe
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: years to rebuild it. Their economy, their oil industry would
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: be crippled until then. But the problem is if we
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: blow it up, it's gone for a couple of years,
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: and then that's going to drive the price of oil
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: up even more. So we don't want to do that.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: So that's why he's saying, we'll be very simple to
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: just destroy Carg Island. But that's why he's saying we'll
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: take it. Does that mean boots on the ground could
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: be But there are ways to take carg Island. We
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: could just blockade it and take control of it. Even
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: if there are boots on the ground. It's okay. We've
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: had boots on the ground twice now in Iran. Both
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: times were to a rescue the pilot pilots shot down,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: but a lot of boots on the ground. We put
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: a lot of equipment, planes, we built runways, all kinds
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: of stuff on the ground, and we're able to protect
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: everybody just fine. But tonight could be a big night
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: attack in Iran.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: We hit them hard yesterday and we're going to hit
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: them again hard today. In case you missification, you don't
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: turn on your television set and.
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: We'll see what happened with the deal.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: We were really close to a deal, but they keep
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: tapping us along, they keep playing us for suckers.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they keep stretching. Time is the only weapon Iran
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: has right now. And I think was Hexath said we
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: can negotiate with bombs. We can do it that way too.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: But their oil industry is shut right now. They've got
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: absolutely no revenue. They're probably just a couple of weeks
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: away from being totally out of cash, not being able
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: to make payroll. So tonight is a big night.
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: Do you know we've been taking out now.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: That's the other big announcement the President made yesterday. You
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: always hear about the strait of Hormoose closed. Well, technically
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: it's closed, but but we've been We opened up a
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: sliver of it to bring a lot of oil out.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: We've brought out one hundred million barrels already. Price of
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: oil is down, it's eighty nine dollars right now, down
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: from whatever was one hundred and nine. You notice when
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: it's down twenty five dollars a barrel, no mention of
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: it on the news. It's not a story. If it
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: goes up ten dollars a barrel, it's the lead story
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: the nightly news. If it drops twenty five dollars a barrel,
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: no mention, they don't even mention it. So, but we've
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: actually escorted a lot of ships out. We've actually opened
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: the other side of the straight of Horn Moose. We've
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: created a path where two hundred ships have safely traveled
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: through the strait. We brought out one hundred million barrels already,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: President Trump revealing that yesterday.
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: Do you know we've been taking out millions of barrels
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: of oil? Nobody knows it. You know who doesn't know
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: about it? Iran until right now. We've took out the
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: other night, twenty two ships late at night with no
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: lights because they don't have any radar, because we've blasted
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: the crap out of it.
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: We took out. That's why oil's eighty five dollars a barrel.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we did it late at night, middle of the night,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: no lights, they're transponders shut off, escorted by a US military,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: A lot of ships, two hundred ships have gotten through
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: the straight oh Horn Moose. So they estimated its about
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: one hundred million barrels of oil came to the market
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: that way. So the Knicks, we're going to have a
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: watch party for last night's game, you know, right outside
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: the garden. And then they had to cancel at the
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: last minute because the city was giving him such a
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: hard time. They didn't want the watch party outside the garden.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Then the city insisted to be limited to a thousand people.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: Then the city insisted it be tickets only. You have
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: to give out tickets to get in, and they finally
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: just decided to cancel it. They couldn't deal with the city.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: So James Dolan went on sports radio. He actually called
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: in Wanda, go in the air. I mean, it's the
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: best if you'll announce the watch party's over sports radio,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: best place to do it. But he went on there
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: but really took some shots at the mayor, James Dolan
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: pointing out that his actual words, Mom, Donnie and Tish
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: are not experienced enough to handle a major event, not
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: experienced enough to handle the security measures you need for that. Well,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: you know, he's got a point. Actually, Mom, Donnie actually
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: has no experience that anything, never had a job, never
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: worked in any profession. Jessica Tish had been in the
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: police department, for years, but it was really as an
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: it person, it's just no actual law enforcement experience before
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: becoming commissioner. Done a good job, but again, yeah, not
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: a lot of experience.
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: Now.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: I don't know why, but and Dolan upset. They created
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: this frozen zone that was ridiculous. It was okay when
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: the President was there, they closed like everything around Dson
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: Square Garden within like five blocks in any direction frozen zone.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: But they did it last night. Nobody understands why. Here's
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: James Dolan.
• 9:48
  Speaker 6: You have an easier chance of getting into area fifty
• 9:51
  Speaker 6: one today than you do into Madison Square Garden. You know,
• 9:55
  Speaker 6: it's really the Mayor's office, right. I cannot explain that
• 9:59
  Speaker 6: the decision on this, but it makes absolutely no sense
• 10:03
  Speaker 6: at all.
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a really crazy frozen zone for blocks
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: in every direction.
• 10:07
  Speaker 6: Even if you come by train or by subway, they're
• 10:10
  Speaker 6: not letting you up.
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: They're going to for they're going to push.
• 10:13
  Speaker 6: You outside of the of the the forbidden zone and
• 10:18
  Speaker 6: make you come through magnetometers the and you're going to
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: have to show that you have a reason to be there, right,
• 10:26
  Speaker 6: And this is all really designed around stopping people from
• 10:31
  Speaker 6: celebrating around Madison Square guard.
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: That's what this is what frozen zone?
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: All right? You can understand the president's there after three
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: assassination attempts, you can certainly understand it. But what were
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: worried about last night? Ben Stiller? Most people and they
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: see Ben Stiller, it's a two snap, they go, what's
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: his name? You know he's kind of forgotten about now
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: More James Dolan.
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: Honestly, the Mayor's office and I'm sorry the commissioner or
• 10:57
  Speaker 6: two write do not have the experience to do this, right.
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: That's mayor Mom, Donnie and Jessica Tissues, the police camp.
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: I mean, they have never managed anything like this before.
• 11:07
  Speaker 6: And it's like peanut butter and jelly sandwich. It's coming
• 11:10
  Speaker 6: out the sides.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: Good for him, Good for him, somebody need to say it.
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: They don't have an experience. Who was the guy talking
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: to that's Craig Carton. It sounded like more Dolan.
• 11:20
  Speaker 6: They don't want the celebration. The I can't tell you
• 11:24
  Speaker 6: why they don't want the celebration right the I'm not
• 11:28
  Speaker 6: sure they know why they don't want to celebrate, but
• 11:31
  Speaker 6: they clearly don't want it.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: Well case of Jessica Tish, you know he's just being
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: overly cautious. Doesn't want any trouble case of mom, Donnie.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: I think he doesn't like people celebrating. He doesn't want
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: to see you happy. You know, he's a socialist. They
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: like to see you walking around waiting in a breadline, scowling.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: The socialists. They don't want to see you happy. They
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: don't it's not good smiling having fun at real left winger.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: They don't like that at all. Let's hear some more, Dolan.
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: All I would say to the mayor and to the
• 12:00
  Speaker 6: Commissioner is right, believe in New Yorkers. Believe New Yorkers
• 12:05
  Speaker 6: can handle this right. We're the greatest city in the world.
• 12:08
  Speaker 6: We got to We got the greatest citizens and fans
• 12:10
  Speaker 6: in the world. They are not going to turn this
• 12:13
  Speaker 6: right into.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: Well and nice thought. But you see the other night
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: stomping on that police car, putting one hundred dents in it.
• 12:22
  Speaker 6: Trust first in your own police departments that they can
• 12:25
  Speaker 6: handle it right, and then trust the fans themselves that
• 12:28
  Speaker 6: they're not maniacs. Right, they're enthusiastic.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Hey, we'll get to a platin. They're coming up
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: a little later. So Bill Gates had to go before
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: the Epstein Investigating Committee and testify about his relationship with
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein. He had quite a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: He was very tangled up with Jeffrey Epstein. He spent
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: a lot of hours and a lot of nights in
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: that townhouse, and there were a lot of women around,
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: not under age, they were older women. But what the
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: hell was he doing there obviously was for women, you
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: know the reason this happens. Sometimes you can say, well,
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: the guy's the multi the richest, most famous guy on earth.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: Can he get all the women he wants? It doesn't
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: quite work that way. I probably could, but he doesn't
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: know how to do it. He's not built for that.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: He's not set up for that. He's got a huge
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: staff of people that know how to get all kinds
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: of things done that they don't know how to get done.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: And that's what a lot of these fixers do. It's
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: not millions of Epstein's not bad, and most of them
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: are quite legitimate people, these fixers, But that's why billionaires
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: latch onto them. They'll take care of stuff for you
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: that you don't want to have to do yourself. You know,
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: let's say you want to get your kid into Harvard.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: You don't want to be seen making these calls. So
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: the guy, I'll do it for you whatever you need.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: And when it comes to women, these fixtures always have
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: a ton of women. If you're Bill Gates and I
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: got to go around picking up women, but this guy
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: has plenty of You go into his house and private.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: So that's what it's all about. Now, Bill Gates walking
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: into the hearings, He's got to testify under oath for
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: hours about Epstein. Listen to him coming in.
• 14:09
  Speaker 7: Glad to be here voluntarily.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: To glad to be here. I think out of if
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: you named every possible thing on earth you could do,
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: this would be like ten millionth on the list. Glad
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: to be.
• 14:20
  Speaker 7: Here, Glad to be here voluntarily, to testify to help
• 14:24
  Speaker 7: of the committee's work. I'll start with an opening statement
• 14:28
  Speaker 7: in the hearing room. I hope my testimony is helpful
• 14:32
  Speaker 7: to the important work of the committee to find justice
• 14:36
  Speaker 7: for the victims.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so he basically said that Epstein was blackmailing. At
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: some point, he said he wouldn't admit to any affairs
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: in the Epstein house, but he said Epstein knew of
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: some affairs well house, what you know, and that he
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: kept holding that over him. He said, that's I don't
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: know if he was blackmail. He said, that's the reason
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: he kept going back, because the question is why did
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: you keep coming back there over and oh, you kept
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: coming back all the time. So the blackmail explanation, I
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: guess is for that. The original explanation as to why
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: he went was to he needed money. He was trying
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: to raise money for his charity. Very important that he
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: get money for his charity. This explanation doesn't make any
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: sense at all. Gates is worth one hundred billion dollars,
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: Epstein's worth one hundred million. It should be the other
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: way around. Should be Epstein going to Gateshouse began for money.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: You got one hundred million, one hundred billion. He's got
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: over a well over one hundred billion, all the money
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: he needs for so and I've been in I'm on
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: the board of a lot of charities. I've been to
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: these meetings where you go see the billionaire and to
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: get money for a charity. I've never seen one of
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: these meetings take more than a half hour. Maybe maybe
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: if it's going well or you start talking to it,
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: maybe it could go forty five minutes. It's not seven hours,
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: and you leave at midnight. There's no philanthropy meeting that
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: go seven hours and you're leaving the house at midnight.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: And Gates was doing that a lot. So, uh, everything
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: he's saying does not past the smell test or the
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: left test. But we'll get back to Bill Gates and
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: we'll take some calls.
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: Next.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten is the number.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.
• 16:20
  Speaker 8: Fox them all live from the w R Life back studios.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: Hey, let's station called eight hundred three to two one
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: zero seven ten is And I'm gonna go to Peter
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: in Manhattan. Peter, how you doing?
• 16:35
  Speaker 9: Hey, how are you doing? Mak goody, Mark, I have
• 16:39
  Speaker 9: a question for you. It's kind of hard to believe
• 16:41
  Speaker 9: in attorney doesn't know what is your client or what
• 16:44
  Speaker 9: is there you know back or what is the high
• 16:46
  Speaker 9: answer or you know what I mean?
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Anyway, I have no idea what you're talking about. Who
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: are we talking about?
• 16:51
  Speaker 9: There's a witch, I mean, he's there. They're curious about
• 16:55
  Speaker 9: him and this investigation too.
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, well no, no, I don't know.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: I don't think that's through Dershowitz, this anti semite that
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: always calls us now, Uh. Dershowitz was Epstein's lawyer for many, many,
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: many years. He knows a lot of stuff and and
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: he's been quite public talking about it on the air. Yeah,
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: he was once accused by Virginia Goufrey, Geoffrey, whatever her
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: name was. I think she's no longer with us. She
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: accused him of being involved in some of the sex.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: Now it was totally false accusations. Dershowitz went to court
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: and suit her and had a great case against her,
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: but she later admitted she had just made stuff up.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: So Dershwitz has never ever been seriously accused of anything.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: But he knows a lot of the inner workings of
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: Epstein because he represented Epstein in the first case. So
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: Epstein had to tell him everything everything, And he's great
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: at shedding light, you know, there was always this study.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: He works for the Mussad, he works for the CIA,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: and Dershowitz is able to shed a lot of light,
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: and that he did not. I mean, he might have
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: tried to tell people that, but if it were true,
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: he could have used it in the first case to
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: get himself out of trouble.
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: Get a better deal.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: But as Dershists will explain, he had absolutely nothing to
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: make a deal with the first time. Let's go to
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: Mike and Florida. Mike, how you doing, good morning, Mark, Yes, Mike.
• 18:21
  Speaker 8: With all the stuff that needs to be done, I'm
• 18:22
  Speaker 8: still not quite sure. This obsession with the Epstein stuff
• 18:25
  Speaker 8: is with the public and the Congress and the media.
• 18:29
  Speaker 8: I don't understand how it impact anybody's life other.
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: Than well, I don't know.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: A lot of times something strange obsession. Well, when a
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: rumor starts a conspiracy. There there was the rumor that
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: he had a client list, that he had clients and
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: wealthy guys that were getting sex with underage girls and
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: they were clients. None of this was true. There were
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: underage girls sex with Epstein. It was strictly him personally
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: and maybe some a couple of me. I think Prince
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: Andrew was probably in there. But all these guys there
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: were not clients. Epstein didn't have a sex business of
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: any kind.
• 18:59
  Speaker 8: Like a complete waste of time and energy and resources
• 19:01
  Speaker 8: the Congress could be doing. You know, they could pass
• 19:03
  Speaker 8: the Save Act to Heaven's sake, you know when.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: You know, But once these conspiracy something like that. That's
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: these conspiracy theory start. If it's something they want to believe.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: No matter what, you can't convince them it's not true.
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: You're right, they'll believe it forever. Yeah, and they think
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: Trump was involved.
• 19:19
  Speaker 8: Yes, are you planning on going on to the US
• 19:22
  Speaker 8: Open to Shinnacock.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: I would never ever ever go to that. First of all,
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: it's in the Hamptons. I wouldn't set foot in the
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: Hampton Second of all, there is nothing worse then going
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: to a golf tournament. You don't see a damn thing.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: You know, when you watch it on TV, you see
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: every shot, every play, every hole. You see the guy
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: on this whole sink the putt, then they cut immediately
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: to this other hole where a guy's t and off.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: You don't see any of that. When you're there, You're
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: stuck on one hole.
• 19:48
  Speaker 8: You're completely ready.
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 19:50
  Speaker 8: I went to the first one they had at Best
• 19:51
  Speaker 8: Page and it was everybody was drunk. I went to
• 19:56
  Speaker 8: the practice round and it was like eight in the morning.
• 19:58
  Speaker 8: Everybody was drunk already, was completely crazy.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: So yeah, Hey, the only thing I want to go to.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: You never want to go to these tournaments if you
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: can go in the days before when the guy when
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: they're on the driving range, watch the pros on a
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: driving range. That is something to.
• 20:11
  Speaker 8: Say, that's the best. Yes, the practice days are the best.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Just go watch these guys the day or two
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: before they come to the club and they're on the drive.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: You watch these guys in a driving range. It's unbelievable
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: that you want to say, it's unbelievable. All right, thanks

  Speaker 2: Mark these riots at Brian Park, people attacking the police,
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: stopping on police cause, mixing it up with the cops.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: This is just another example of how the city's going
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: down the toilet on the people like Alvin Bragg. And
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: unfortunately Jessica Tish wants to do the right thing. She
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: wants to do the job. She wants to go full
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: battle to the metal, but uh ma'am and Dommi and

• 21:05
  Speaker 2: know that the judges are gonna let all these bums go.
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: Back in the day, you wouldn't have even dead thought
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: about attacking a cop stopping on a car back in
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: the day the police stare ledged. I was running away
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: from a crime scene and out of nowhere a cop
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: comes and hits cracks me across the head with the
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: bat and they had to take me to Bellvue to
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: sew up my head before they don't.

• 21:40
  Speaker 1: we come back, we hope to talk to Steve Moore,
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: the great economists. What's really going on with inflation with
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: oil with a w rent. We'll get to all of
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: that coming up next on seven to ten w R.
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: Back to Mark Simone on wor Well.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: Steve Moore, the brilliant economist. Hey, make sure you get
• 21:58

• 22:20
  Speaker 1: Unleash prosperity dot com. Steve Moore, how you doing.
• 22:25
  Speaker 8: Hey, Mark.
• 22:25
  Speaker 5: I'm doing pretty well. I think the economy is doing
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: pretty well too. I mean, I know we got a
• 22:30
  Speaker 5: disappointing inflation report yesterday, but it wasn't really step that.
• 22:35
  Speaker 5: We have inflation running at four point two percent, but
• 22:38
  Speaker 5: that's all being driven right now by the high price
• 22:41
  Speaker 5: of oil. And when we get that oil price to
• 22:43
  Speaker 5: come back down, which it will, I think we'll see
• 22:46
  Speaker 5: lower inflation this summer. Incidentally, did you know that the
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: average gas price, we have this in the hotline today,
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: the average gas price under Trump and both his first
• 22:57
  Speaker 5: term and so far in a second term, lower in
• 23:00
  Speaker 5: inflation adjusted dollars than under Obama and Biden.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: Except if you if you watch the NBC Nightly News
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: or ABC, if you watch MS, and all these gas
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: prices up, inflation shoots up, they make it sound like
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: it's a total disaster.
• 23:17
  Speaker 5: Well, if people are angry about the price of groceries,
• 23:20
  Speaker 5: and people are angry about the being a price of
• 23:22
  Speaker 5: filling up a tank, and it is a tax on
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: the economy when you have oil prices as high as
• 23:27
  Speaker 5: they are now. But they're going to come down, and
• 23:29
  Speaker 5: we're going to see this summer real boom in the economy,
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: especially given what's going on with our industry with respect
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: to the technology is the industry. The construction industry is
• 23:40
  Speaker 5: doing very well in terms of with all sorts of
• 23:43
  Speaker 5: construction projects all over the country. Manufacturing is making a comeback.
• 23:47
  Speaker 5: And you know, as our buddy Larry Cumbo says, we're
• 23:49
  Speaker 5: in the midst of one of the biggest investment booms
• 23:52
  Speaker 5: in American history.
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, just explain to people, because again people watch
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: the Network News, they're getting totally calm when when you
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: lower taxes you actually get more revenue. Isn't that the case?
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: Well, this is a good time day to explain that,
• 24:08
  Speaker 5: because you know, Bob Packwood, who was a Senator from Oregon,
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: died this week. He is famous for being the Senate
• 24:16
  Speaker 5: sponsor of something called the Tax Reform Act of nineteen
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: eighty six. And what we did, and that was sort
• 24:22
  Speaker 5: of the tail end of the Reagan administration, we cut
• 24:24
  Speaker 5: the highest on the Reagan we had to cut the
• 24:26
  Speaker 5: highest tax rate from seventy percent down to twenty eight percent.
• 24:31
  Speaker 5: Now here's a question for you, Mark, what do you
• 24:33
  Speaker 5: think happened to tax payments by the rich. Do you
• 24:35
  Speaker 5: think they went up or down?
• 24:37
  Speaker 8: Up?
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: It's called the Laffer curve. It it works every time. So
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: the rate was lower. And by the way, one of
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: the things we did in nineteen eighty six was we
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: cleared out all the special interest loopholes and all of
• 24:49
  Speaker 5: the you know, all of the you know, lobbyist provisions
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: that have been putting the bill over fifty years. And
• 24:55
  Speaker 5: we just cleaned out the stable. So everybody would pay
• 24:58
  Speaker 5: a low rate, but everybody'd pay their fare share. Why
• 25:01
  Speaker 5: can't we do that again? You know, we haven't done
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: anything like that. So all we do is add more
• 25:04
  Speaker 5: and more special interest loopholes and carve outs for big lobbyists,
• 25:09
  Speaker 5: and the little guy gets screwed.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, if we did the flat tax, everybody pays seventeen percent,
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: I love it. Wouldn't that bring more revenue of the
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: flat tax?
• 25:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah? Yeah, I mean we could do a you know,
• 25:21
  Speaker 5: eighteen percent flat tax everybody pays. You just get a
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: deduction for the number of kids you have, so you
• 25:27
  Speaker 5: know the expense of raising your family is covered. But
• 25:31
  Speaker 5: you don't get right of us for all this other stuff.
• 25:34
  Speaker 5: And then and then you know, you would raise so
• 25:36
  Speaker 5: much revenue, and we'd have the lowest tax rate in
• 25:38
  Speaker 5: the world. We'd just be a magnet, a bigger magnet
• 25:41
  Speaker 5: for capital investment in this country. Think about the jobs
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: we would create, although we'd lose a lot of irs
• 25:47
  Speaker 5: jobs and we probably lose a lot of you know,
• 25:50
  Speaker 5: tax accounting shops.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: Now, the only reason we can't do it is because
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: all the people in Congress sell these loopholes and these
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: carve outs, right, that's the reason we can't do it.
• 25:58
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, you know, it used to be you could
• 26:01
  Speaker 5: get carveouts for you know, investing in both firm or
• 26:04
  Speaker 5: and you know, abandoned apartment buildings and solar energy and
• 26:09
  Speaker 5: all this stuff. And why not just create a level
• 26:12
  Speaker 5: playing field and in by the way, wouldn't it be
• 26:14
  Speaker 5: amazing if it only took your ten minutes to fill
• 26:16
  Speaker 5: out your tax form every year. You didn't have to
• 26:18
  Speaker 5: have an army of accountants, so it would be so simple.
• 26:21
  Speaker 5: But you know, nobody in Washington wants that because we
• 26:24
  Speaker 5: derive our power in Washington mark from all the all
• 26:27
  Speaker 5: the special interest provisions in the tax code, and that's
• 26:30
  Speaker 5: what we buy and sell in this city.
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, unbelievable, Hey, a Social Security Steve Moore, how healthy
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: is the Social Security system?
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: Well, the numbers that came out yesterday should not be
• 26:42
  Speaker 5: too surprising that anyone who pays attention to this stuff
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: that the Social Security Administration now admits what everyone knows,
• 26:48
  Speaker 5: which is that by the year twenty thirty two, maybe
• 26:51
  Speaker 5: people didn't realize it was going to happen so fast,
• 26:53
  Speaker 5: but by twenty and thirty two, it's back up, it's
• 26:55
  Speaker 5: out of it, it's out of a out of money.
• 26:57
  Speaker 5: And so this is an incredible you know, a situation
• 27:01
  Speaker 5: where we have a Ponzi scheme with Social Security. They
• 27:03
  Speaker 5: spent all the money it was supposed to be for
• 27:05
  Speaker 5: your and my retirement, and they spent on other government programs.
• 27:09
  Speaker 5: I mean, if Mark, if you were running a private
• 27:11
  Speaker 5: business and you had a pension plan and you were
• 27:14
  Speaker 5: the CEO of that company and you started spending the
• 27:16
  Speaker 5: pension money on other programs and put you in jail
• 27:19
  Speaker 5: for fraud. WOWA to put Congress in jail for fraud.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: Twenty thirty two, that's only six years from now.
• 27:28
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I know exactly, you know, and we knew this
• 27:31
  Speaker 5: day was coming, and Congress did nothing about it. And
• 27:34
  Speaker 5: so what what I've been proposing, and I've been proposing
• 27:37
  Speaker 5: this for forty years, is that young people take that
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: twelve percent of their paycheck, put it into you know,
• 27:43
  Speaker 5: an index fund like an IRA funder, a four to
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: one K plan. And if if you and I and
• 27:48
  Speaker 5: the people listening to the show had been able to
• 27:49
  Speaker 5: do that starting thirty forty years ago, we would be
• 27:52
  Speaker 5: getting so security, we would keep getting retirement benefits, it
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: would be three times higher, and we'd be able to
• 27:58
  Speaker 5: leave our children at a million dollars.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: Wow, unbelievable. Hey, this crazy mayor Seattle, this left wing
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: mayor who's spooking all these corporations they're leaving town. Seems
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: like she's backtracking a little. You think she's seeing the
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: light and what's going on there?
• 28:14
  Speaker 5: Which point is that the one in Seattle? Yeah, there's
• 28:17
  Speaker 5: so many crazy mayors out there at Seattle. Oh yeah,
• 28:21
  Speaker 5: she's the one who said bye bye to the rich
• 28:23
  Speaker 5: people who said we're leaving because you just raised our
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: taxes by up to ten percent. And so get you know,
• 28:29
  Speaker 5: you're seeing the people at Microsoft, You're seeing the people
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: at Amazon, your people seeing the people at Starbucks, all
• 28:34
  Speaker 5: these iconic Seattle companies they're leaving, you know. And it
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: just goes to show something we've talked about so many times.
• 28:42
  Speaker 5: If you tax something, you get less of it. You
• 28:43
  Speaker 5: keep taxing these people and they leave.
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we have this crazy governor in New York who
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: said the same thing. Now she's saying, we want you
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: to stay. How come they can't figure out if your
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: business is tax revenue, don't chase away your biggest customers,
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: the months that pay the most.
• 28:59
  Speaker 5: Why can't they figure And you would, you would think that.
• 29:01
  Speaker 5: And yet you know here where they go, you know,
• 29:04
  Speaker 5: and you've got all these states and cities. You know,
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: look by the way, look at you know, you want
• 29:08
  Speaker 5: to talk about chasing way businesses. How about Chicago. They're
• 29:11
  Speaker 5: losing the Bears my goodnesstakes because they couldn't. The taxes
• 29:14
  Speaker 5: are so high and the costs are so high in Chicago,
• 29:16
  Speaker 5: and I grew up in Chicago. We're losing the Bears.
• 29:19
  Speaker 5: Oh my god, it's the end of the world. They're
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: gonna be in Hammond, Indiana. Indiana is going to have
• 29:23
  Speaker 5: two football NFL franchises and Illinois gonna have zero.
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: Wow, he's not kidding, He's not kidding. The Chicago Bears
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: are going to move.
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: Uh, they're going to Hammond, Indiana. And that's going to
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: be bad for the NFL. It's bad for Chicago, and
• 29:35
  Speaker 5: it's bad for everybody. But you have incompetent leadership in
• 29:38
