Latest / Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning / Hour 2: ICE in the Bronx
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Well, the protests that have afflicted Minneapolis, the protests that
- 0:04Speaker 1: have afflicted Maine, guess where they're coming now? In the
- 0:13Speaker 1: neighborhood at the hospital where the victim was taken, there
- 0:17Speaker 1: were massive protests. They attacked police cars. And that's not
- 0:21Speaker 1: going to go away as long as this case is
- 0:24Speaker 1: in the news. It's going to be days and days
- 0:27Speaker 1: and days. And trust me, those protests are going to
- 0:30Speaker 1: keep growing. And this is all because a man was
- 0:34Speaker 1: shot by ICE at 4 p.m. yesterday on West 225th
- 0:40Speaker 1: Street and Marble Hill Avenue in the Marble Hill section
- 0:44Speaker 1: of the city. So ICE wanted him. He was on
- 0:49Speaker 1: their list. He was a bad, bad man. And they
- 0:53Speaker 1: were undercover, which you're going to hear from a lot
- 0:56Speaker 1: of people was horrible that they were Apparently, they should
- 0:59Speaker 1: have sirens on their heads as they go up and
- 1:02Speaker 1: approach these people. And they were wearing masks. And they
- 1:06Speaker 1: approached the car. NYPD was there, too, although they weren't
- 1:11Speaker 1: involved in the apprehension. He had a little boy in
- 1:14Speaker 1: the back seat also at the time. He is a
- 1:20Speaker 1: Dominican Republic citizen in this country illegally. The DHS has
- 1:30Speaker 1: alleged the man was associated with a Trinitorious gang and
- 1:35Speaker 1: may have been involved in the brutal killing of a
- 1:39Speaker 1: CBP officer last year. And that's why they approached with guns.
- 1:44Speaker 1: You see, a lot of people think they shouldn't approach
- 1:46Speaker 1: with guns when they're approaching a potential violent criminal who
- 1:51Speaker 1: has beaten people in the past. But no, they approached
- 1:55Speaker 1: with guns drawn. And reportedly, and we're going to find
- 2:00Speaker 1: out because there's a lot of video, street video, body
- 2:03Speaker 1: cam video. There's a lot of video of this. Reportedly,
- 2:07Speaker 1: he tried to drive off. And that's when they fired
- 2:11Speaker 1: Jessica Tisch. The police commissioner says seven shots, one of
- 2:16Speaker 1: them hitting the driver in the neck, none of them
- 2:19Speaker 1: hitting the little boy who was in the backseat and
- 2:22Speaker 1: five years old. The injuries, he's still in the hospital
- 2:25Speaker 1: right now. The injuries are said to be non-life threatening.
- 2:30Speaker 1: So he is, it sounds like he's going to live
- 2:32Speaker 1: and it sounds like he's going to be deported. But
- 2:35Speaker 1: what we have now, of course, is chaos in the city.
- 2:39Speaker 1: Another ice shooting in the middle of a midterm. Oh
- 2:42Speaker 1: my God, if he can throw even more logs onto
- 2:45Speaker 1: that fire, it's going to be a big deal for
- 2:49Speaker 1: a long time. But I have, would love to know
- 2:55Speaker 1: how you can say this wasn't warranted. And what kills
- 3:02Speaker 1: me and what annoys me and what makes me angry
- 3:06Speaker 1: is that the very same people that are going to
- 3:09Speaker 1: attack what happened are the same people that created the
- 3:14Speaker 1: atmosphere for this to happen. So you leave the borders
- 3:20Speaker 1: wide open At minimum, 11 million people came over unvetted.
- 3:26Speaker 1: It turns out many of them, not all of them,
- 3:29Speaker 1: but a pretty large percentage, let's say 10%, were criminals
- 3:36Speaker 1: and wreaked havoc on this country to the point where
- 3:38Speaker 1: we had record crime in almost all of our major cities.
- 3:44Speaker 1: And then, not only did they let them in, but
- 3:46Speaker 1: they create sanctuary cities so they can exist in and
- 3:51Speaker 1: not be bothered by ICE or the police. Then they
- 3:54Speaker 1: set up cashless bail and other soft on crime policies
- 4:00Speaker 1: so that they can commit crimes time and time again
- 4:03Speaker 1: and be let out on the streets. So then when
- 4:07Speaker 1: ICE tries to round up those people, the people that
- 4:11Speaker 1: are the worst of the worst especially, they're the first
- 4:15Speaker 1: ones to cry about it. They created this situation. They're culpable.
- 4:20Speaker 1: They are guilty. Let me tell you what this angel
- 4:24Speaker 1: that is in the hospital right now has done. He
- 4:27Speaker 1: has convictions for grand larceny, multiple prior arrests for assault, robbery,
- 4:33Speaker 1: possession of drugs, and weapons possession. And again, he is
- 4:38Speaker 1: suspected in the brutal killing of a CBP officer last year.
- 4:45Speaker 1: So go ahead and protest over him being shot by
- 4:49Speaker 1: an ICE officer. Oh, I left out one thing, one
- 4:53Speaker 1: really important thing in that whole list of the people
- 4:57Speaker 1: that created this atmosphere, the people that are really responsible
- 5:01Speaker 1: for what happened. They also have it so that The
- 5:09Speaker 1: ICE officers aren't supposed to be wearing masks. Remember that?
- 5:13Speaker 1: Kathy Hochul saying that? Well, they just ignored that. Just
- 5:17Speaker 1: ignored that. So that people would be able to see
- 5:20Speaker 1: their faces and dox them. It is a long, long,
- 5:26Speaker 1: long list of soft on crime policies. And the fact
- 5:30Speaker 1: that it's now a midterm and the Democrats decided that
- 5:34Speaker 1: people like this scum should be treated like angels.
- 5:41Speaker 2: All right.
- 5:41Speaker 1: And one last thing, and this is the other thing
- 5:44Speaker 1: I was trying to think of and I couldn't come
- 5:45Speaker 1: up with it right away. If they had arrested this
- 5:49Speaker 1: guy before and handed him over to ICE, none of
- 5:52Speaker 1: that would have happened yesterday. That's the biggest crime. That's
- 5:56Speaker 1: the biggest crime. None of that would have happened yesterday if,
- 6:00Speaker 1: like in other cities, or like Bruce Blakeman did, You
- 6:04Speaker 1: just hand them over after you arrest them or after
- 6:07Speaker 1: they serve their time. And then they're taken away. You
- 6:10Speaker 1: don't have to go out in the streets. There's no shootings.
- 6:12Speaker 1: None of this happens. None of this happens in other
- 6:14Speaker 1: cities and states. It is a witch's brew of bad
- 6:19Speaker 1: to force these things to happen. So every time they happen,
- 6:23Speaker 1: don't blame ICE. Blame Democratic policy.
- 6:27Speaker 2: Well, it's a bad look. And I've said this over
- 6:30Speaker 2: and over. There are two ways to snatch up somebody
- 6:32Speaker 2: that has a detainer. You do it at 4 o'clock
- 6:35Speaker 2: in the afternoon. A ton of kids are on the street.
- 6:39Speaker 2: The guy is in a vehicle with a 5-year-old kid
- 6:41Speaker 2: in the back. You know how bad that looks? You
- 6:44Speaker 2: fire at the vehicle seven times. Hopefully, one of the
- 6:49Speaker 2: ICE officers had the body cam on because we've been
- 6:52Speaker 2: promised that when they do traffic stops, the body cam
- 6:55Speaker 2: will be on. But the DHS did not get ahead
- 6:59Speaker 2: of this at all. First of all, they don't have
- 7:01Speaker 2: any Hispanic speaking spokespersons in that area. If you don't
- 7:05Speaker 2: speak Spanish, very few people are going to understand what
- 7:08Speaker 2: you're saying. So right away, there's a huge Spanish media
- 7:11Speaker 2: here in our tri-state area, 41 channel, 41, 47. I'll
- 7:15Speaker 2: make a whole bunch of them and whatever has been
- 7:18Speaker 2: put out. does not contradict what is being said by
- 7:22Speaker 2: Zoran Mandami, who spent two hours on the phone with
- 7:25Speaker 2: Donald Trump and with Mullins, head of DHS, trying to
- 7:28Speaker 2: negotiate the release of this guy. And obviously everyone else
- 7:34Speaker 2: who at 11 o'clock at night was having a press
- 7:36Speaker 2: conference to question and challenge how the DHS made this arrest.
- 7:43Speaker 2: I can tell you this. When you have a DHS
- 7:46Speaker 2: guy out there with an assault weapon holding it in
- 7:49Speaker 2: the air in all the videos. Larry, that is a
- 7:52Speaker 2: bad look.
- 7:53Speaker 1: This guy may have killed a cop. That's what they're
- 7:56Speaker 1: after him for. That's why they want him. Would you
- 7:58Speaker 1: stop defending the undefendable?
- 8:01Speaker 2: These are bad, bad, bad people. What the hell is
- 8:02Speaker 2: a freaking assault weapon being out there for? They never
- 8:06Speaker 2: use assault weapons.
- 8:07Speaker 1: Who doesn't use assault weapons?
- 8:08Speaker 2: DHS.
- 8:09Speaker 3: ICE does.
- 8:09Speaker 1: They use 9mms. ICE has had them before. You saw
- 8:11Speaker 1: them with them in Minneapolis. Larry, do you not accept
- 8:14Speaker 1: the fact that this is a bad look? Would you
- 8:15Speaker 1: stop defending this? Yes, it's a bad look. It's a
- 8:19Speaker 1: bad look when people are killed on the streets. It's
- 8:21Speaker 1: a bad look that we have so many people illegal
- 8:24Speaker 1: committing crimes over and over and over again. And then
- 8:28Speaker 1: when you try to get them, when you try to
- 8:30Speaker 1: round them up, uh-oh, kid gloves. Hold them with kid gloves.
- 8:34Speaker 1: Watch what you're doing. Watch if you're on video. Do
- 8:36Speaker 1: you like Jessica Tish? Do you like Jessica Tish, the
- 8:38Speaker 1: police commissioner?
- 8:40Speaker 2: All she has said that he had a conviction for
- 8:43Speaker 2: robbery in 2023. He pled guilty five years probation. He
- 8:47Speaker 2: should have been handed over to ICE. You're correct. And
- 8:49Speaker 2: recently he was arrested for a drug sale still pending.
- 8:53Speaker 2: That's what the NYPD is saying. DHS is telling a
- 8:56Speaker 2: completely different story and they're not ahead of this story.
- 9:00Speaker 1: And then you have Mamdani who showed us who he
- 9:02Speaker 1: really is.
- 9:03Speaker 2: We know that ICE is rotten to its core.
- 9:07Speaker 4: Today's shooting is only further devastating confirmation of what we
- 9:11Speaker 4: have long known, which is that ICE operates with impunity,
- 9:15Speaker 4: that they sow chaos and terror across our country, that
- 9:18Speaker 4: they have killed far more of our neighbors than they
- 9:21Speaker 4: could ever have claimed to save.
- 9:22Speaker 1: That's ridiculous. That was a lie at the end. And
- 9:26Speaker 1: everything he said, well, he just showed who he really is.
- 9:30Speaker 1: He's been hiding. He's been showing that he's not a radical.
- 9:34Speaker 1: And he's been trying to be very soft-spoken and answer
- 9:38Speaker 1: things logically. That's who he is. That is the crazy
- 9:43Speaker 1: revolutionary psycho.
- 9:44Speaker 2: That he is. But he's said this ever since he left.
- 9:46Speaker 2: He's always said that I should be disbanded.
- 9:48Speaker 1: Not like that. He never said that you should be abolished.
- 9:51Speaker 1: He's never said that they're rotten to the core.
- 9:54Speaker 2: Man. I don't know. I don't say that many times.
- 9:56Speaker 2: Are they?
- 9:57Speaker 3: No.
- 9:58Speaker 1: Of course they're not.
- 9:59Speaker 2: But Larry, would you listen to me for a second?
- 10:01Speaker 1: I've listened to you.
- 10:02Speaker 2: Because I'm an expert. What have I said over and over?
- 10:04Speaker 1: You're not an expert on this. You hate ICE.
- 10:06Speaker 2: You don't like Trump. Would you listen to me? You're
- 10:08Speaker 2: not objective on any of this. U.S. Marshals make arrests
- 10:12Speaker 2: all the time of bad hombres. They do it at
- 10:14Speaker 2: 3 o'clock in the morning. They get them at their
- 10:17Speaker 2: apartment when they're asleep. You don't do it at 4
- 10:20Speaker 2: o'clock in the afternoon, fire seven shots.
- 10:23Speaker 1: And why did that happen? Because he wasn't handed over
- 10:26Speaker 1: when he was arrested. If that were to happen, it
- 10:30Speaker 1: happens in state after state after state.
- 10:32Speaker 2: Do you ever hear about this? Would you have preferred
- 10:36Speaker 2: that he get taken into custody at 3 and 4
- 10:39Speaker 2: in the morning when everyone's sleeping?
- 10:41Speaker 1: I would rather he just be handed over after he
- 10:44Speaker 1: was arrested because of his legal status.
- 10:46Speaker 2: Why? It's a sanctuary state.
- 10:49Speaker 4: Right.
- 10:49Speaker 2: That's the problem. And it's been that way since Ed Koch,
- 10:53Speaker 2: Rudy Giuliani, George Pataki, El Jefe, Chris Christie.
- 10:56Speaker 1: Believe me, I'm not blaming your guy, Mamdani. I know
- 11:00Speaker 1: the history of it. That's the problem.
- 11:04Speaker 2: That's why this happens. You do it at night, 3
- 11:07Speaker 2: to 4 in the morning. He's sleeping. Nobody's going to
- 11:11Speaker 2: be up in the streets.
- 11:12Speaker 3: He'll be in custody.
- 11:12Speaker 1: You wouldn't have to do it at all if you
- 11:14Speaker 1: had reasonable policy, and that's what you should be attacking.
- 11:17Speaker 2: If this is what you want ICE to do, you're
- 11:18Speaker 2: going to lose the midterm elections. You're going to lose
- 11:21Speaker 2: four Republicans. I'm going to lose the midterm elections? I'm
- 11:23Speaker 2: not even running.
- 11:24Speaker 1: Wow. Who you defend and what you defend sometimes gets
- 11:29Speaker 1: to me.
- 11:29Speaker 2: I'm telling you the right way to do it, Larry.
- 11:32Speaker 1: The right way to do it is to hand them over.
- 11:34Speaker 1: Three to four in the morning. Talk sense. You hand
- 11:38Speaker 1: them over at the prisons. That's what you do. Say
- 11:40Speaker 1: goodbye to the pizza of your youth. Plus a chance
- 11:44Speaker 1: to see a live stage of Bronx Tale. So when
- 11:47Speaker 1: you were a kid, did either of you eat the
- 11:51Speaker 1: Celeste frozen pizzas?
- 11:55Speaker 5: We definitely had them in my house when I was
- 11:57Speaker 5: a kid. You could make them in the microwave.
- 11:59Speaker 2: I know.
- 12:00Speaker 3: I know.
- 12:01Speaker 1: You know, I remember them. I didn't eat them as
- 12:03Speaker 1: much as the Elio's pizzas.
- 12:05Speaker 5: That was the frozen pizza in my household. And to
- 12:08Speaker 5: tell you the truth, we still buy it today.
- 12:10Speaker 2: My son loves it. Wait a second. You had frozen pizzas? Yeah.
- 12:15Speaker 3: Yep.
- 12:15Speaker 2: Well, maybe you actually went into the cafeteria on Friday
- 12:19Speaker 2: in your school and had the fake English muffins with
- 12:22Speaker 2: American cheese on it, hunched tomato ketchup on it that
- 12:26Speaker 2: they put in the microwave. And they called that pizza.
- 12:28Speaker 5: Yes, I did, and I liked it. And I grew
- 12:30Speaker 5: up in Staten Island, and they were the best pizzerias.
- 12:34Speaker 2: You're right.
- 12:35Speaker 1: In colleges, too. Frozen pizzas. Those little frozen pizzas. People
- 12:40Speaker 1: live on them. But anyway, so Elio's has the whole
- 12:43Speaker 1: market to itself right now because Celeste's frozen pizzas is
- 12:48Speaker 1: going away. What?
- 12:49Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 12:50Speaker 1: And how do you pronounce this? Conagra? Conagra Brands?
- 12:54Speaker 5: Yeah, they were like one of those huge, you know,
- 12:56Speaker 5: food companies.
- 12:57Speaker 6: They make everything under the sun.
- 12:59Speaker 2: When I worked at A & P, the frozen food aisle,
- 13:02Speaker 2: Celeste was like the most popular brand. what people brought
- 13:06Speaker 2: to the checkout stand. Now, this is back in the
- 13:09Speaker 2: late 70s, but I got to tell you, why did
- 13:12Speaker 2: they go out of business?
- 13:13Speaker 1: Well, it says the Conagra makes them. It stopped producing
- 13:17Speaker 1: Celeste frozen pizzas, prompting fans to get really upset. The
- 13:21Speaker 1: company disclosed the move during its fiscal quarter 2027 earnings
- 13:24Speaker 1: that were down. So- I got a feeling they feel
- 13:31Speaker 1: it's not selling as much as it used to.
- 13:33Speaker 5: They said it's a really small brand for them. So
- 13:35Speaker 5: it's just, you know, not making money. But have you
- 13:38Speaker 5: guys seen the frozen pizza aisle lately? It takes up
- 13:42Speaker 5: probably like four freezer cases.
- 13:46Speaker 1: Oh, I know.
- 13:47Speaker 6: And then it's crazy how many types there are.
- 13:49Speaker 1: So there's the regular pizzas and then you go to
- 13:53Speaker 1: the health section or the organic section. And then there's
- 13:56Speaker 1: three more. stacks of them. I mean, they're all over
- 14:00Speaker 1: the place. You're right. Pizza's the biggest thing.
- 14:03Speaker 2: I'm wondering, the brand is so famous, it goes back
- 14:06Speaker 2: 50 years at least, maybe even more. Why they didn't
- 14:09Speaker 2: just spin it off to another company like PepsiCo that
- 14:12Speaker 2: has like 50,000 different brands?
- 14:14Speaker 5: Well, that's what Conagra is. That is one of those
- 14:17Speaker 5: type of companies. And I guess they just said it
- 14:19Speaker 5: wasn't worth it because it was such a small production.
- 14:23Speaker 5: But somebody should pick up the name because the name
- 14:25Speaker 5: is so good. And honestly, they say they stopped making
- 14:28Speaker 5: them already.
- 14:29Speaker 7: They're out of production.
- 14:30Speaker 5: You probably could still find some in a freezer case
- 14:33Speaker 5: somewhere so i'm gonna go look this.
- 14:35Speaker 2: Weekend really you could eat them two years later if
- 14:38Speaker 2: they were still in the frozen food section.
- 14:40Speaker 1: But alio's are so much better that's why they're going
- 14:44Speaker 1: out of business they're so much better let's get to
- 14:47Speaker 1: some talkbacks tell curtis a bad look is people being
- 14:52Speaker 1: set on fire on the subway by illegal aliens too
- 14:55Speaker 1: that's a bad look too no that's apparently okay Nobody's
- 15:00Speaker 1: defending criminals. It's just the way they're doing it. How
- 15:05Speaker 1: they're doing it is the problem. Putting other people, innocent
- 15:08Speaker 1: people in jail. Yeah, it's how they're doing it, right?
- 15:11Speaker 1: That's what you're saying? It's how ICE is doing it.
- 15:14Speaker 1: Not how the state is doing it. Not how the
- 15:16Speaker 1: city is doing it. Not just turning over these criminals.
- 15:19Speaker 1: So you're going to blame ICE, who is actually doing
- 15:23Speaker 1: something to take those criminals off the seats.
- 15:25Speaker 2: Well, I will blame them. They don't even have a
- 15:27Speaker 2: director now. They should have Tom Holman removed from the border.
- 15:30Speaker 2: The border is sealed up. Trump has done a great
- 15:32Speaker 2: job there. And let him run ICE. They do not
- 15:35Speaker 2: have a director of ICE. Who's running the training?
- 15:38Speaker 1: But why do we keep talking about ICE when they're
- 15:40Speaker 1: not the problem?
- 15:41Speaker 2: Well, in this case, they look like the problem, Larry.
- 15:46Speaker 1: Well, they're put in that position because this guy was
- 15:48Speaker 1: allowed back on the streets like every illegal that commits
- 15:51Speaker 1: a crime. is back on the streets and not turned
- 15:53Speaker 1: over the ice.
- 15:54Speaker 2: There are ways.
- 15:54Speaker 1: That creates the problem.
- 15:55Speaker 2: Even organized crime doesn't whack you when you're in a
- 15:58Speaker 2: car with a kid in there or your wife. Come on, Larry.
- 16:01Speaker 1: Blame the source. Blame the problem. Why won't you say that?
- 16:05Speaker 1: Why won't you say they.
- 16:06Speaker 2: Shouldn't be letting these people out? Larry, because we're dealing
- 16:08Speaker 2: with this Polaroid snapshot now, and ICE has not had
- 16:12Speaker 2: its proper training. That's been admitted by people in ICE.
- 16:15Speaker 2: Let Tom Holman run it, please. They don't even have
- 16:19Speaker 2: an ICE director.
- 16:20Speaker 1: You're lost.
- 16:21Speaker 8: I just don't understand people.
- 16:23Speaker 7: I really don't.
- 16:24Speaker 2: You know, I know everyone has the right to have
- 16:25Speaker 2: their own opinion.
- 16:26Speaker 3: But in this case, socialism and to vote for a
- 16:31Speaker 3: radical socialist.
- 16:33Speaker 2: I just don't understand.
- 16:34Speaker 6: We should send all these people to a socialist country.
- 16:37Speaker 2: Let them stay for a short while. They'd be running back.
- 16:40Speaker 2: It's in Donald Trump's feet. Well, I guess she's referring
- 16:44Speaker 2: to Al-Shayid. who's as close to socialism as you can get,
- 16:48Speaker 2: but he claims he's a capitalist with some socialist leanings.
- 16:52Speaker 2: They're out there. They're part of the Democratic Party now.
- 16:54Speaker 2: The voters will decide.
- 16:56Speaker 1: A Democrat.
- 16:58Speaker 2: These are criminals on the street. They don't belong in
- 17:01Speaker 2: this country. They end up killing people, robbing people. They
- 17:04Speaker 2: need to go. They need to go.
- 17:08Speaker 1: Oh, no, no. There's an entire party that doesn't think
- 17:11Speaker 1: they should. There's an entire party.
- 17:13Speaker 2: Have you heard?
- 17:14Speaker 1: Let's do this next week. You'll hear some of the
- 17:17Speaker 1: candidates for the Democrats across the country saying they should
- 17:21Speaker 1: give a path to citizenship or just make citizens. of
- 17:25Speaker 1: 11 million people.
- 17:26Speaker 2: You could do it the right way like they did
- 17:28Speaker 2: with Obama. Tom Homan was in charge. You never had
- 17:31Speaker 2: any of these instances. The right way is to turn
- 17:33Speaker 2: them over from their jails. More were deported under Obama.
- 17:36Speaker 2: Is that correct or not correct? Yes, he did a
- 17:39Speaker 2: good job. Who was in charge? Tom Homan. Thank you.
- 17:42Speaker 1: So what does that mean?
- 17:43Speaker 2: There's a right way to do it and a wrong
- 17:45Speaker 2: way to do it. Yes.
- 17:46Speaker 1: Handing them over is the right way to do it.
- 17:49Speaker 1: I don't know what you're talking about, but maybe Daria
- 17:52Speaker 1: Albinger can make sense of the whole thing.
- 17:54Speaker 2: Oh, no.
- 17:54Speaker 1: You know what? You should stay out of this.
- 17:56Speaker 2: I think that's probably best.
- 17:57Speaker 1: Why don't you just.
- 17:57Speaker 2: Do the news?
- 17:59Speaker 8: Good morning, guys.
- 18:00Speaker 2: Take a breath.
- 18:01Speaker 8: Sunny, a little cooler today. We'll see a high of
- 18:04Speaker 8: 71 degrees. Governor Hochul wants all ICE operations stopped in
- 18:08Speaker 8: New York as an investigation begins into the shooting of
- 18:11Speaker 8: an undocumented immigrant yesterday. Mayor Mamdani says he agrees with
- 18:14Speaker 8: the governor.
- 18:15Speaker 2: There is no explanation for federal officers.
- 18:18Speaker 4: Firing this many rounds into a car that has a
- 18:22Speaker 4: five-year-old in the car.
- 18:23Speaker 8: ICE says the man was a violent criminal. Now, ICE
- 18:26Speaker 8: also says that he was using that car to ram
- 18:29Speaker 8: the agents. The ex-boyfriend of a Bronx woman who was
- 18:32Speaker 8: pushed to her death from her apartment balcony... is going
- 18:36Speaker 8: to be in court today.
- 18:37Speaker 9: The NYPD arrested 31-year-old Angel Carrasco, who smiled at reporters
- 18:42Speaker 9: as he was carted off to a psych evaluation. Carrasco
- 18:45Speaker 9: is accused of pushing 23-year-old Natalie Ramirez off the balcony
- 18:49Speaker 9: as she was holding their eight-month-old daughter. Ramirez was pronounced
- 18:52Speaker 9: dead at the hospital, but authorities say she may have
- 18:54Speaker 9: cushioned her baby's fall, even though the little girl has
- 18:57Speaker 9: been in critical condition. Officials say Carrasco was hiding out
- 19:01Speaker 9: in a friend's house when he was arrested and charged
- 19:03Speaker 9: with murder, attempted murder, and manslaughter.
- 19:06Speaker 6: Natalie Migliore, WOR News.
- 19:09Speaker 8: The Pentagon is now saying that the December 3rd execution
- 19:11Speaker 8: of Major Nadel Hassan, the former Army major who killed
- 19:15Speaker 8: 13 people in a shooting rampage at Fort Hood, Texas
- 19:19Speaker 8: in 2009, will be live-streamed. Now, public executions were once
- 19:23Speaker 8: common in the U.S., but they were phased down in
- 19:25Speaker 8: the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Hurricane Isaias is
- 19:30Speaker 8: forecast to reach Category 3 strength later today as it
- 19:32Speaker 8: spins toward the Gulf Coast. Hurricane warnings are now in
- 19:36Speaker 8: effect from Louisiana to the Florida Panhandle. For the first
- 19:39Speaker 8: Atlantic hurricane of the year, it's expected to make landfall
- 19:42Speaker 8: late tonight or early tomorrow and bring rain to our
- 19:45Speaker 8: area early next week. Islanders beat Chicago. The Liberty hosts Atlanta.
- 19:50Speaker 8: tonight in a must-win game three of their WNBA semifinal series.
- 19:54Speaker 8: Next news, 8 o'clock bulletins at once. I'm Daria Albinger
- 19:58Speaker 8: on 710WOR.
- 19:59Speaker 1: Thank you, Daria. Well, what a good time to bring
- 20:01Speaker 1: in former Westchester County Executive and former candidate for governor,
- 20:06Speaker 1: Rob Astorino, to not only talk about ICE, but the
- 20:10Speaker 1: midterms and the New York elections. Rob Astorino is coming
- 20:13Speaker 1: up next. But right now, man, just another person saved
- 20:17Speaker 1: this week. Another person saved by life back. And you know,
- 20:21Speaker 1: most of the people that get saved are children. That's
- 20:24Speaker 1: why if you're a parent... You really should have LifeVac
- 20:27Speaker 1: in your house. I just gave one to my daughter
- 20:30Speaker 1: to protect her three grandchildren because emergencies can happen in
- 20:34Speaker 1: a minute, in a second. And when they do, you
- 20:39Speaker 1: need to act immediately and you need a life-saving device,
- 20:44Speaker 1: just like LifeVac. LifeVac is the first and only FDA-authorized
- 20:49Speaker 1: suction anti-choking device to be used for second-line treatment when
- 20:54Speaker 1: recommended choking protocols have been followed without success. And here's
- 20:58Speaker 1: what's so remarkable about LifeVac. We just talked about it
- 21:02Speaker 1: a moment ago. Another life save this week. LifeVac has
- 21:06Speaker 1: helped save over 6,000 lives worldwide. It's coming close to 6,500.
- 21:12Speaker 1: Those aren't just numbers, of course. They're real people. They're
- 21:14Speaker 1: real second chances. Preparedness matters. Are you prepared? Because having
- 21:19Speaker 1: the right tool nearby can mean the difference between life
- 21:23Speaker 1: and death. So learn more about LifeFact today at LifeFact.net.

- 21:31Speaker 1: it counts.
- 21:32Speaker 2: Time, Larry and Natalie, for our colleague Rob Astorino. You
- 21:36Speaker 2: can hear him on his own show. Saturdays, 4 to 5,
- 21:39Speaker 2: right here at 7, 10 WR, but right on time.
- 21:42Speaker 2: Rob Astorino, I sat down yesterday and I did the
- 21:46Speaker 2: polls on this Marist poll. And I'm telling you, I'm
- 21:50Speaker 2: feeling a Blakeman surge here. He's winning independence, which, as
- 21:54Speaker 2: you know, generally doesn't happen until the last two weeks.
- 21:57Speaker 2: The unlike abilities for Hochul continue to be there. And
- 22:01Speaker 2: he seems like he's got a tight campaign now. The
- 22:04Speaker 2: commercials are good. He's going to the right places. He's
- 22:06Speaker 2: with Trump in Syracuse today. What's your perceptions?
- 22:12Speaker 3: Look, I've been saying this, Curtis, consistently. The numbers for
- 22:16Speaker 3: Hochul are not where they need to be.
- 22:18Speaker 2: Not at all. They're soft.
- 22:20Speaker 3: She's unlikable. They don't think the state's going in the
- 22:23Speaker 3: right direction. And Blakeman, as you said, I mean, independency
- 22:27Speaker 3: has consistently been winning. OK, so that with regard to
- 22:32Speaker 3: upstate New York still going with with a Republican. And
- 22:35Speaker 3: that's actually people say, oh, they always go Republican. It
- 22:38Speaker 3: hasn't been that way in the last decade. They've gone
- 22:41Speaker 3: Democrat as well. And, you know, a lot of upstate
- 22:43Speaker 3: New Yorkers have left or died. So, you know, it's
- 22:46Speaker 3: changed a little bit. But he's also she's also not
- 22:49Speaker 3: doing well in the suburbs and Long Island's included in that.
- 22:52Speaker 3: So the other key thing in Long Island, all the
- 22:55Speaker 3: town supervisors are up. Most of them are Republican. So
- 22:58Speaker 3: they're going to be pulling out the vote, too. So
- 23:00Speaker 3: there's a lot of things working in Blakeman's direction this year.
- 23:05Speaker 3: I go back to my polling in 2009 when I
- 23:08Speaker 3: won my county executive race. I was losing by seven
- 23:11Speaker 3: or eight points in a two to one Democratic county
- 23:14Speaker 3: late in the election. And it was like, oh, you
- 23:16Speaker 3: can't win.
- 23:16Speaker 2: You can't win.
- 23:17Speaker 3: And I won by 13. That was a huge swing.
- 23:21Speaker 3: Same thing when I was running for governor. Now, I
- 23:23Speaker 3: lost the race by 12 and a half or whatever
- 23:25Speaker 3: it was. But the poll in the public polling had
- 23:27Speaker 3: me down by 30 points going into Election Day. And,
- 23:31Speaker 3: you know, we picked up 20 points because people actually voted.
- 23:35Speaker 3: So the point is, there's a lot happening. Look at
- 23:38Speaker 3: the numbers, but don't rely totally on the numbers. People
- 23:42Speaker 3: still have to vote, and they're in a pissy mood
- 23:44Speaker 3: right now for the right reasons. I don't know if
- 23:46Speaker 3: you guys saw the debate. I didn't want to forget this,
- 23:49Speaker 3: but last night, and of course it was on New
- 23:52Speaker 3: York One, because that's the only thing the Democrats will do.
- 23:55Speaker 3: They only want to do debates on cable to limit
- 23:58Speaker 3: people being able to see it instead of on Channel
- 24:00Speaker 3: 4 or 7, whatever. But that Attorney General debate here
- 24:04Speaker 3: in New York, Saritha Kamatareddy is an unbelievable candidate. She
- 24:11Speaker 3: sliced and diced Tish James last night on everything. It
- 24:17Speaker 3: was so embarrassing to watch Tish James try to hum,
- 24:21Speaker 3: you know, humming, humming, humming her way through this on
- 24:23Speaker 3: the Cornell situation, on ice, on everything. It was really embarrassing.
- 24:29Speaker 3: And I hope people... Take a look at Sarita Kamatureti
- 24:32Speaker 3: for Attorney General, because God knows we need a change there.
- 24:35Speaker 3: She was fantastic.
- 24:36Speaker 1: Yeah, we should talk about more of that on Monday
- 24:39Speaker 1: and pull some of the bites and some of the
- 24:41Speaker 1: sound from that so we can play it for people.
- 24:43Speaker 1: So we'll try to get to that on Monday. Now,
- 24:46Speaker 1: there was so much going on last night, of course,
- 24:48Speaker 1: that things like that get lost, and especially because of
- 24:52Speaker 1: the outlet that's running it. But I wanted to talk
- 24:55Speaker 1: to you about the polls because you talked about them
- 24:56Speaker 1: a moment ago. You talked about your own poll, how
- 24:58Speaker 1: it was wrong in Westchester County. I saw Harry Enten
- 25:03Speaker 1: talking about the polls and how bad they were in
- 25:05Speaker 1: the last election. And every single time, it seems to
- 25:09Speaker 1: favor Democrats. So I started to do a deeper dive
- 25:13Speaker 1: in it. And Real Clear Politics does a great job
- 25:16Speaker 1: at looking at the polls and looking at their potential bias.
- 25:19Speaker 1: Listen to this. They studied 18 polls. over a 10-year period.
- 25:26Speaker 1: And how many of you do you think favored Republicans
- 25:29Speaker 1: of those 18?
- 25:30Speaker 3: I'm going to say zero.
- 25:33Speaker 2: Oh, it's four.
- 25:33Speaker 1: It's four. So 14 to four. But listen to some
- 25:38Speaker 1: of the Democratic bias. For instance, let's pick out Monmouth
- 25:41Speaker 1: University right down the road. 84% of the errors they
- 25:46Speaker 1: made favored Democrats.
- 25:48Speaker 2: 84%.
- 25:51Speaker 1: And so the problem is, as you well know, people
- 25:54Speaker 1: see polls and sometimes it suppresses the votes. You got
- 25:58Speaker 1: to ignore the polls. You have to, I know it's
- 26:01Speaker 1: a necessary evil, but I think that you would counsel people,
- 26:05Speaker 1: you know, vote with your heart, not with the polls.
- 26:07Speaker 3: Oh, a hundred percent. I also wish if I had
- 26:10Speaker 3: my way, I would ban polling to be public because
- 26:13Speaker 3: it has so skewed the debates and the elections and
- 26:17Speaker 3: people like, Like you said, they're like, I'm not going
- 26:20Speaker 3: out because my candidate is winning big or my candidate
- 26:23Speaker 3: is going to get clobbered or whatever. And so people
- 26:25Speaker 3: don't go out or they follow the leader. They want
- 26:28Speaker 3: to be with the winner. So they vote for who
- 26:30Speaker 3: they think the polls are telling them they're going to win.
- 26:33Speaker 3: And I would love if I could snap a finger
- 26:35Speaker 3: and do one thing, it would be to ban public polling.
- 26:38Speaker 3: Just stop it. People make up your own freaking minds.
- 26:44Speaker 3: But having said that, I've seen this all the time. Now, look,
- 26:49Speaker 3: they're not always wrong. And generally speaking, they're within, you know, reason.
- 26:54Speaker 3: But in the end, you have a lot of things
- 26:56Speaker 3: brewing at once and people have to vote and things get,
- 27:00Speaker 3: you know, things get skewed in these numbers. And there's
- 27:04Speaker 3: such an overemphasis on this, like it is a horse race,
- 27:08Speaker 3: you know, with not actual people being involved in it.
- 27:11Speaker 3: So hopefully, I honestly believe, you know, the timing is right.
- 27:16Speaker 3: And think about how crazy this is, guys. You've got
- 27:19Speaker 3: Republican states that are struggling, right? Democrats are doing much better,
- 27:25Speaker 3: at least in the polls, in these red states. And
- 27:28Speaker 3: in purple and blue states, you've got Republicans doing better.
- 27:31Speaker 3: Republicans can actually win in Oregon. They're winning in Oregon.
- 27:35Speaker 1: Minneapolis.
- 27:38Speaker 2: In Minnesota, she's winning to FOIA.
- 27:40Speaker 3: So it's a crazy year.
- 27:43Speaker 2: One last thing on the polls, though. They are very consistent. Affordability,
- 27:47Speaker 2: cost of living, war in Iran, almost every poll you
- 27:52Speaker 2: look at, how do the Republicans overcome that?
- 27:56Speaker 3: Well, one other thing, though, about the polling, and it's
- 27:58Speaker 3: been very consistent, and the pollsters admit this, it is
- 28:03Speaker 3: very difficult to get accurate responses from certainly people in
- 28:08Speaker 3: rural areas and people who have been voting for Trump.
- 28:12Speaker 3: That's a question that if they do not ask in
- 28:14Speaker 3: a poll, It is skewed. Who did you vote for
- 28:18Speaker 3: in 2024 for president? Because that is that is much
- 28:21Speaker 3: more reliable than not having that question asked. And that's
- 28:25Speaker 3: one thing I look in polling right away, whether they
- 28:27Speaker 3: ask that question or not. But, yeah, I mean, look,
- 28:30Speaker 3: affordability is no question. I mean, some of the states
- 28:33Speaker 3: I was just in Nebraska, which is very red. And,
- 28:36Speaker 3: you know, they're struggling in the polling. They're going to win,
- 28:39Speaker 3: I think. But, yeah, the affordability issue is a big
- 28:41Speaker 3: it's a big issue. There's no question about it. The
- 28:44Speaker 3: question is whether people want to put a long-term solution
- 28:47Speaker 3: by giving the Democrats power or not.
- 28:50Speaker 2: What were you doing in Nebraska?
- 28:52Speaker 3: Pete Ricketts, the senator there, I was with him for Newsmax,
- 28:55Speaker 3: so we were together for Monday. And, you know, look, again,
- 29:02Speaker 3: Nebraska will come home. At the end of the day,
- 29:04Speaker 3: Pete Ricketts is going to win, but it's tighter than
- 29:06Speaker 3: it should be, at least in the polling. And the
- 29:09Speaker 3: bad part about this is, National Republicans have to divert money.
- 29:13Speaker 3: So they're pulling the plug in North Carolina. Looks like
- 29:16Speaker 3: they're pulling the plug in Georgia. And they're sending that
- 29:18Speaker 3: money to other states like Texas and Michigan and even Kansas,
- 29:21Speaker 3: which they haven't voted for a Democrat for Senate since
- 29:25Speaker 3: the 1930s, literally. But they're sending money there to prop
- 29:28Speaker 3: up their candidate.
- 29:29Speaker 1: So people can see that out on Monday? What time?
- 29:31Speaker 2: Do you know?
- 29:32Speaker 9: I don't.
- 29:32Speaker 3: I don't know when it's going to air.
- 29:34Speaker 1: Oh, you're bad you're really bad at promoting things newsmax
- 29:38Speaker 1: is going to be upset with you rob astorino host
- 29:41Speaker 1: of the rob astorino show on wor saturdays 4 to
- 29:44Speaker 1: 5 p.m and host of saturday agenda 1 to 3
- 29:47Speaker 1: p.m on newsmax go ahead you got it will air
- 29:49Speaker 1: tomorrow it will air.
- 29:50Speaker 3: Tomorrow on my show okay newsmax.
- 29:53Speaker 1: Okay perfect former westchester county executive thanks rob.
- 29:56Speaker 2: My wish come true up next. Natalie Migliari out in
- 30:00Speaker 2: the streets asking people, do you know who Ella Langley is?
- 30:06Speaker 2: It's 710WOR Speed on the Street with Natalie Migliore. Glory, hallelujah,
- 30:14Speaker 2: my wish has finally become true. For weeks, I've lobbied
- 30:18Speaker 2: to have Natalie Migliore go down in the streets, talk
- 30:21Speaker 2: to average persons, and ask them if they recognize the
- 30:25Speaker 2: name Ella Langley. It was brought to my attention when
- 30:29Speaker 2: Larry aptly pointed out she had the number one musical
- 30:33Speaker 2: hit for weeks and weeks and weeks. He played it,
- 30:35Speaker 2: and I said, I don't know who this person is.
- 30:39Speaker 6: Okay, Larry, let's bring it up.
- 30:41Speaker 2: You needed to recuse yourself. Oh, you're biased.
- 30:46Speaker 6: Oh, please.
- 30:48Speaker 9: Okay, I took her to the streets to see if
- 30:50Speaker 9: people know the name Ella Langley.
- 30:52Speaker 6: I can't make people know it or not. Either you
- 30:54Speaker 6: know it or you don't.
- 30:56Speaker 9: So this song, Choosing Texas, spent more than 24 weeks
- 31:01Speaker 9: on the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100.
- 31:04Speaker 6: So do they know her?
- 31:05Speaker 10: I don't know much about her. I think I've heard
- 31:07Speaker 10: some of that song, and I've definitely heard her name
- 31:09Speaker 10: a lot. I think I saw that she was topping
- 31:12Speaker 10: the charts, and I was like, I.
- 31:12Speaker 7: Don't really know what that is. She's been doing good.
- 31:15Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
- 31:15Speaker 7: I listen to her a lot.
- 31:16Speaker 6: I mean, all of her music is a story. I
- 31:18Speaker 6: know one of her songs.
- 31:20Speaker 3: Which one? I forgot.
- 31:21Speaker 6: It's the She's From Texas, I Can Tell. I know
- 31:23Speaker 6: that song.
- 31:24Speaker 2: I love it so much.
- 31:26Speaker 8: I'm old school.
- 31:28Speaker 10: I like R & B old school.
- 31:30Speaker 7: Does she spell her name E-L-L-E?
- 31:31Speaker 2: P-L-L-E. L.A. Langley.
- 31:34Speaker 1: So, no.
- 31:35Speaker 6: No, I'll have to look her up, too. Yeah, they're
- 31:38Speaker 6: going to have to do a quick Google search. So,
- 31:40Speaker 6: a mix there.
- 31:40Speaker 9: A lot of people saying they stream music, so if
- 31:44Speaker 9: they're not listening to the radio, they might not necessarily
- 31:47Speaker 9: be open.
- 31:48Speaker 6: Or hearing the new songs.
- 31:50Speaker 9: And Ella Langley really rose. But data shows the numbers
- 31:54Speaker 9: are pretty even. Just as many people streaming music as
- 31:58Speaker 9: they are listening to music on their radios.
- 32:01Speaker 6: Yet how we've listened to music.
- 32:03Speaker 9: This is this whole discussion has brought up how we've
- 32:06Speaker 9: listened to music has changed over the years.
- 32:10Speaker 10: When I was growing up, I think we had a
- 32:11Speaker 10: tape deck in our car. And I had a CD
- 32:13Speaker 10: player that I used to listen to on the bus
- 32:15Speaker 10: to school, and I would skip with the bumps on
- 32:17Speaker 10: the bus and stuff.
- 32:18Speaker 7: CD changer in my car. That was my cool phase.
- 32:23Speaker 2: Don't say an A-track. Yes, I did.
- 32:26Speaker 7: I had an A-track.
- 32:27Speaker 2: The fat one?
- 32:28Speaker 1: Yeah. I sure did.
- 32:30Speaker 2: That was my first CD.
- 32:31Speaker 7: It was Off the Wall, Michael Jackson.
- 32:35Speaker 2: Can I just interrupt one second? Every respondent is a woman.
- 32:40Speaker 9: Yes. A lot of guys didn't like to want to
- 32:42Speaker 9: play along.
- 32:43Speaker 6: One guy was, you want to get into this?
- 32:45Speaker 9: One guy was like asking him if he still listens
- 32:47Speaker 9: to the radio and he just backed up from me
- 32:50Speaker 9: every second.
- 32:51Speaker 2: So Larry, this is like a poll that's not fair.
- 32:55Speaker 2: It's all females.
- 32:56Speaker 1: Whatever.
- 32:57Speaker 9: I mean, I can't control what I get sometimes. And look,
- 33:00Speaker 9: and you're also talking to somebody who had a Barbie
- 33:02Speaker 9: boom box on the floor of her parents house. And
- 33:07Speaker 9: it's still there till this day. My parents are like,
- 33:09Speaker 9: get it out.
- 33:10Speaker 6: You're getting married. But it's still there, guys.
- 33:12Speaker 9: So long gone are those days with people saying social
- 33:17Speaker 9: media plays a huge role in introducing them to new
- 33:20Speaker 9: music and things.
- 33:22Speaker 10: One of the biggest things is TikTok right now really
- 33:23Speaker 10: helps and pushes out new artists or artists I've never
- 33:26Speaker 10: heard of.
- 33:26Speaker 6: So I think that's one of the big things that
- 33:28Speaker 6: we have right now.
- 33:29Speaker 10: Social media is everything.
- 33:32Speaker 8: And then you never know the difference between I.A., And
- 33:37Speaker 8: what's real and what's fake. Because they have so much stuff.
- 33:41Speaker 6: You know, exactly. When she said I was like, IA, AI,
- 33:45Speaker 6: it's all the same.
- 33:46Speaker 9: Look, when I asked people who they would love to
- 33:49Speaker 9: see in concert, dead or alive, Ella Langley was not
- 33:52Speaker 9: on any of their lists. You'll hear the range in ages,
- 33:55Speaker 9: but there may be some singing and it's certainly not AI.
- 34:00Speaker 10: My favorite band is Fall Out Boy.
- 34:02Speaker 6: Gerald LaVert.
- 34:05Speaker 8: Michael Jackson.
- 34:06Speaker 6: I love him, King of Pop, everybody loves him, honestly.
- 34:08Speaker 2: MJ, I've never seen him in concert.
- 34:11Speaker 7: Prince, I've never seen him. Frank Sinatra, for sure. That
- 34:15Speaker 7: is my favorite. He's my absolute favorite artist.
- 34:17Speaker 2: What song?
- 34:18Speaker 7: It's always so hard because everyone that I hear, I
- 34:21Speaker 7: always like.
- 34:22Speaker 6: Come on, there used to be a ballpark right here.
- 34:24Speaker 6: I mean, Fly Me to the Moon's very basic. We've
- 34:27Speaker 6: got Pocket Full of Miracles.
- 34:29Speaker 7: When I was 17, so that's what I was thinking about.
- 34:32Speaker 9: When I was 17, it was a very good year.
- 34:36Speaker 7: It was a very good year for small town girls.
- 34:41Speaker 2: We did.
- 34:42Speaker 9: And I would have, if she was alive, if he
- 34:44Speaker 9: was alive, if she was alive, we'd be going together.
- 34:47Speaker 2: What a bias survey. Now you're doing sing-along studio influence
- 34:51Speaker 2: to vote.
- 34:51Speaker 6: You sent me out.
- 34:53Speaker 9: No, she didn't even know who Ella Langley was.
- 34:56Speaker 6: No, we got into it after.
- 34:58Speaker 1: Come on, take them on. Go ahead.
- 34:59Speaker 3: Yeah, I know.
- 35:00Speaker 2: You can argue with program director Tom Cuddy. He rated
- 35:06Speaker 2: Blinding Lights by the weekend number one all time based
- 35:09Speaker 2: on stats. And that's the favorite of my.
- 35:11Speaker 1: And you have to be able to answer. I'm sorry,
- 35:13Speaker 1: because we're out of time. Natalie Migliore is going to
- 35:16Speaker 1: be back on Monday at the very same time. We'll
- 35:19Speaker 1: talk more about what happened at Cornell University and what's
- 35:22Speaker 1: going to happen next. After the news, it's eight o'clock.
