0:00
Speaker 1: This is seven tor Boy.
0:03
Speaker 2: The Mark Simung Show starts. Now, Hey, it's I know
0:09
Speaker 2: it's been a little rain. It's about to stop. It's Monday.
0:12
Speaker 2: We got a lot to get to. We'll get to
0:13
Speaker 2: the latest on Iran, big developments there, We'll get to
0:18
Speaker 2: the TSA. We'll get to lots of stuff to get
0:21
Speaker 2: to today, we'll get to the Bachelorette and Robert Muller
0:25
Speaker 2: and more so. LaGuardia Airport remains closed after that horrible
0:29
Speaker 2: crash that took place late last night. A truck is
0:33
Speaker 2: on the runway and collides with a plane. Now, when
0:38
Speaker 2: you're when you're a big, big truck out there on
0:42
Speaker 2: the runway, you're under the control of the air traffic controllers.
0:45
Speaker 2: They don't just control the planes, that can control anything
0:48
Speaker 2: that comes on the runway, and an air traffic controller.
0:52
Speaker 2: Somebody screwed up something there and you can hear the
0:55
Speaker 2: air traffic controllers screaming at the truck to stop, but
0:59
Speaker 2: it was too late. Plane hit it and the front
1:01
Speaker 2: of the plane completely crumbled, killing two pilots. Forty one
1:06
Speaker 2: people were hospitalized on the plane as the plane just massive,
1:12
Speaker 2: massive shaking and crashing and stewardess goes through the window.
1:16
Speaker 2: It's you know when they tell you when you land
1:19
Speaker 2: on the runway and you're taxiing, they tell you to
1:21
Speaker 2: please remain seated and keep your seat belt on. That's
1:24
Speaker 2: why something like this could happen. That's why you keep
1:27
Speaker 2: your seat belt on until you get to the gates.
1:30
Speaker 2: So the interesting thing is this big Air Canada plane
1:35
Speaker 2: hits the truck. The truck is absolutely fine. Front of
1:39
Speaker 2: the plane completely crumbled. Now, the planes are made of
1:43
Speaker 2: a flimsy or aluminum, whereas the truck is heavy steel.
1:47
Speaker 2: The plane is made to be very very light to
1:50
Speaker 2: fly in the air, so it's very thin. It's kind
1:53
Speaker 2: of frightening when you see how quickly that whole front crumbled. Well,
1:56
Speaker 2: the truck was just fine. But they're attempting to clean
2:00
Speaker 2: this up. It's going to be a while. The airport
2:02
Speaker 2: will not open until at least two o'clock, so figure
2:06
Speaker 2: five o'clock. The National Transportation Safety Board is there investigating
2:11
Speaker 2: the crash. This will be a while. So all flights
2:15
Speaker 2: canceled at LaGuardia. If you were supposed to leave or
2:17
Speaker 2: come back today. All flights canceled at LaGuardia, and when
2:20
Speaker 2: they do reopen late in the afternoon, it's going to
2:24
Speaker 2: be a snarled up mess and that will continue probably
2:28
Speaker 2: for forty eight hours until they get that straightened out.
2:30
Speaker 2: That massive delays and back up and all of that.
2:34
Speaker 2: So when they do get the airport reopen, you got
2:37
Speaker 2: the original problem, which is the TSA, many of them
2:41
Speaker 2: not showing up, many of them calling in sick, they
2:43
Speaker 2: haven't been paid in weeks, the TSA agents overwhelmed. Yesterday
2:49
Speaker 2: you had reports of delays at airports all over the
2:52
Speaker 2: place of up to four hours, people missing their planes
2:56
Speaker 2: from being in a security line for four hours. Now,
2:59
Speaker 2: believe it or not, there there some airports, about twenty
3:01
Speaker 2: two of them around the country that are not suffering
3:04
Speaker 2: in this problem. And that's because long ago they decided
3:07
Speaker 2: to contract out to private security instead of relying on
3:12
Speaker 2: the TSA. Their private security contracts are all fine, everybody's
3:15
Speaker 2: getting paid. So there are a bunch of airports, about
3:19
Speaker 2: twenty two of them around the country with no problem
3:23
Speaker 2: at all. So here's what's going to happen. The TSA
3:27
Speaker 2: will be in the airports they've started coming in today,
3:31
Speaker 2: but there will be more coming in. This is Transportation
3:34
Speaker 2: Secretaryduffie Boddy.
3:35
Speaker 3: That's when the next paycheck should come. And if this
3:39
Speaker 3: homeland security funding isn't resolved, I think you're going to
3:42
Speaker 3: see more TSA agents as we come to Thursday, Friday,
3:44
Speaker 3: Saturday of next week. They're going to quit or they're
3:47
Speaker 3: not gonna show.
3:48
Speaker 2: Up, But more ICE agents are on the way.
3:50
Speaker 3: We can bring in other assets and tools to assist
3:53
Speaker 3: TSA to get rid of these lines.
3:55
Speaker 1: Yeah.
3:55
Speaker 3: I think that makes a lot of sense. And the
3:56
Speaker 3: President's looking around every corner to make sure the American
3:59
Speaker 3: people don't sing the shutdown.
4:01
Speaker 2: Yeah. Now, one thing about the ICE agents. You might
4:04
Speaker 2: say that's kind of peculiar to send them into the
4:05
Speaker 2: air well. Actually, most ICE agents the normal job of
4:09
Speaker 2: ICE is the Southern border and they do check people,
4:13
Speaker 2: security checks on people coming in over the border. They
4:16
Speaker 2: do inspect them, frisk them. They're not up to date
4:20
Speaker 2: on the X ray machines used in the airports, but
4:24
Speaker 2: that's not a problem. ICE agents will do everything else,
4:27
Speaker 2: but they're used to doing the baggage checks, pat downs,
4:30
Speaker 2: checking people. They do it all the time. Now, the
4:36
Speaker 2: plan today is when the ICE agents come in the
4:39
Speaker 2: TSA will still do the actual inspection at the X
4:43
Speaker 2: ray machine at the conveyor belt, but ICE will take
4:45
Speaker 2: over all the other jobs besides the actual inspecting of
4:49
Speaker 2: the passengers. The TSA agents have to be all over
4:52
Speaker 2: the airport, checking the gates in, blocking the gates out,
4:55
Speaker 2: checking the line. So ICE will take over that, which
4:59
Speaker 2: will free up a lot lot of TSA and that'll help.
5:02
Speaker 2: And then they'll gradually get trained on the X ray
5:05
Speaker 2: machines and they can eventually take over the whole thing.
5:07
Speaker 2: And it might be a good idea to just make
5:10
Speaker 2: that permanent. Let the ICE agents do it. They're very
5:13
Speaker 2: good at it. It's the other thing that it accomplishes.
5:16
Speaker 2: It's a great way to troll Democrats. It's a great
5:19
Speaker 2: way to troll people like Chuck Schumer. They hate ICE,
5:22
Speaker 2: they hate ICE agents, they hate any illegal actually being
5:26
Speaker 2: caught and deported. Trump truthing out over the weekend, if
5:32
Speaker 2: the radical left Democrats don't immediately sign an agreement to
5:35
Speaker 2: let our country, in particular our airports be free and
5:38
Speaker 2: safe again, I will move our brilliant and patriotic ICE
5:42
Speaker 2: agents to the airport. Now this is the part trolling
5:44
Speaker 2: the Democrats. He added, the ICE agents, but also beef
5:48
Speaker 2: up security against illegal immigrants, heavy emphasis on those from
5:51
Speaker 2: Somalia who have totally destroyed with the approval of a
5:56
Speaker 2: corrupt governor, attorney general and Congresswoman Elon Omar. It's a
6:00
Speaker 2: once great state of Minnesota. So it's driving the left nuts.
6:04
Speaker 2: ICE agents in the airport. Now, it's important to get
6:08
Speaker 2: this whole thing settled. And you might say, well, I'll
6:12
Speaker 2: give the Democrats credit for once Congress stayed in session
6:16
Speaker 2: over the weekend, they remained in Washington and didn't go home. Well,
6:20
Speaker 2: if you talk to these congressmen, the real reason they
6:23
Speaker 2: did that. They didn't want to go home because they
6:25
Speaker 2: knew it was a nightmare at the airports. They knew
6:28
Speaker 2: they'd be stuck in these lines for three or four hours,
6:32
Speaker 2: or they can get past the lines, they can avoid
6:35
Speaker 2: the lines and be escorted right through. They either have
6:38
Speaker 2: to be stuck in the lines for three or four
6:40
Speaker 2: hours or being seen being escorted past the line. And
6:44
Speaker 2: they didn't want to go through that, so they they
6:48
Speaker 2: decided to stay in Washington all week and we'll see
6:50
Speaker 2: if this gets settled. Iran the president over the weekend,
6:56
Speaker 2: saying Iran has forty eight hours or he will blit
7:00
Speaker 2: rate their biggest power plants. There's a number of power sources,
7:04
Speaker 2: but there's one major power plant that cost a lot
7:07
Speaker 2: of money ten billion to build it. You knock that out,
7:10
Speaker 2: you pretty much cripple the electric grid of Iran. So
7:15
Speaker 2: he threatened to do that. Now this morning, the present
7:17
Speaker 2: tweeting out that the talks with Iran and there are
7:20
Speaker 2: talks on two levels, government to government and then there's
7:23
Speaker 2: back channel talks with the opposition leaders and resistance. But
7:29
Speaker 2: he said things have gone well with those talks, there
7:31
Speaker 2: is progress. He will give them five days to get
7:34
Speaker 2: something done in the talks. That's a pretty good deal.
7:37
Speaker 2: That's calmed things down a lot. Stock market up about
7:41
Speaker 2: a thousand points already. Iran putting out a statement saying
7:47
Speaker 2: they're having no talks at all, which means they're having talks.
7:50
Speaker 2: Anytime Iran puts out a statement, just reverse it and
7:53
Speaker 2: you probably got the real story. Over the weekend, Iran
7:59
Speaker 2: for the first time launched ballistic missiles that they've never
8:02
Speaker 2: used before that can go about twenty five hundred miles
8:06
Speaker 2: twenty five hundred miles. It was never thought that Iran
8:08
Speaker 2: would have that kind of range. But they launched a
8:11
Speaker 2: couple of those missiles aiming at the Diego Garcia Military Base,
8:16
Speaker 2: which is it's a joint base the United States and Britain.
8:19
Speaker 2: It's in the Indian Ocean's about two thousand miles away. Now,
8:22
Speaker 2: the good news is Iran with these long range ballistic
8:25
Speaker 2: missiles not very competent. One failed, the other one was
8:29
Speaker 2: shot down. But the problem is with the twenty five
8:32
Speaker 2: one hundred mile range, Well, that means Iran can hit
8:38
Speaker 2: with their missiles, can hit London, Paris Rome. It puts
8:42
Speaker 2: Europe in great jeopardy. That's another reason Europe should get
8:46
Speaker 2: in and try to get get this settled. Same thing
8:50
Speaker 2: with the Straits of horm Moose. We don't get oil
8:51
Speaker 2: out of the Straits of horror Moose. We really don't
8:54
Speaker 2: need it. It's Europe. Europe gets all their oil out
8:57
Speaker 2: of the Straits of Hermose. We actually get maybe about
8:59
Speaker 2: one and a half percent, that's it, and we don't
9:02
Speaker 2: need any oil. We're totally oil independent. We can get by.
9:06
Speaker 2: We're actually not only totally independent, we're on the way
9:09
Speaker 2: to becoming energy dominant. We're actually an exporter now of oil.
9:14
Speaker 2: There are countries that are now joining the US helping
9:17
Speaker 2: to contribute twenty two of them so far. Latest to
9:21
Speaker 2: join Australia, the UAE. We've already got UK, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands,
9:27
Speaker 2: Japan all helping to open up the Straits of Hormus.
9:31
Speaker 2: So that's the good news.
9:32
Speaker 4: Now.
9:32
Speaker 2: The bad news is Iran is now with the hoodies
9:37
Speaker 2: threatening the target the Red Sea. That's another strait, another
9:41
Speaker 2: port that we need. It's a twenty mile wide straight
9:45
Speaker 2: southern end of the Red Sea. They're threatening to target that.
9:48
Speaker 2: But this will all get resolved pretty fast, pretty easy
9:51
Speaker 2: to take care of. All of this is not major,
9:53
Speaker 2: major military stuff. Iranian protesters are saying revolution is just
10:00
Speaker 2: around the corner. They can't wait to finish off this
10:02
Speaker 2: awful regime. So we'll see. Hey, the funniest thing is
10:07
Speaker 2: the president announces he's going to send the TSA into
10:10
Speaker 2: the airports. So this whole democratic crazy left wing democrats
10:16
Speaker 2: all over the Sunday shows, all over Twitter, all of it.
10:20
Speaker 2: It's all coordinated. They have conference calls in the morning
10:24
Speaker 2: where they coordinate the language whatever it's to say. So
10:28
Speaker 2: yesterday they were told to say and it sounds crazy
10:33
Speaker 2: but it's basically what Richard Blumenthal tweets. Richard Bloomenthal is
10:38
Speaker 2: that sleazy, dirty senator from Connecticut who when they tell
10:42
Speaker 2: him what to say, he'll basically just tweet it verbatim.
10:46
Speaker 2: Bloomenthal tweeting out ICE agents at airports will only aggravate
10:50
Speaker 2: delays and lines, disrupting checks, interrogating travelers, dragging parents from children,
10:56
Speaker 2: detaining citizens, brutalizing families, shooting and even killing. So it
11:03
Speaker 2: sounds insane, but they were told to say this, Jakeim
11:06
Speaker 2: Jeffries and others basically putting out the same nonsense that
11:10
Speaker 2: the ICE agents at the airport will be grabbing your
11:12
Speaker 2: children away from you, brutalizing people and shooting and even
11:16
Speaker 2: killing them. I know you're supposed to tweet this, and
11:22
Speaker 2: you're supposed to do what you're told if you're in
11:24
Speaker 2: the Democratic Party. But Bloomenthal, as dirty and as sleazy
11:29
Speaker 2: as he is, should at some point I'm not tweeting
11:32
Speaker 2: this out. This is ridiculous. But it's Bloomenthal who's been
11:35
Speaker 2: caught in the most unbelievable lies. He lied about serving
11:40
Speaker 2: in Vietnam, memory lied about speaking at the Communist Party dinner.
11:44
Speaker 2: He denied it. The video existed of him doing it, So,
11:49
Speaker 2: I mean, just crazy, a lot to get to today.
11:53
Speaker 2: Michael Goodman will be with us in a few minutes,
11:55
Speaker 2: and coming up a little later, we'll get to the
11:59
Speaker 2: governor's race. Go over that in great detail. So, hey,
12:03
Speaker 2: one reason things are going so well militarily. You know,
12:06
Speaker 2: you can pick on Pete Hegsath all you want. You
12:09
Speaker 2: can say, well, he's not the best at these press conferences,
12:12
Speaker 2: But under Pete Hegsath, in the first year, in a
12:17
Speaker 2: couple months, the military has executed the most incredible military
12:22
Speaker 2: operations in the history of the US, from Venezuela to
12:27
Speaker 2: taking out the nuclear reactors in Iran. I mean, just
12:29
Speaker 2: unbelievable operations under Hexath and the war in Iran, We've
12:34
Speaker 2: never seen anything like this. I mean, it's been incredibly
12:38
Speaker 2: effective in just two weeks what they've taken out over there.
12:41
Speaker 2: And one of the things that's being used it's a
12:44
Speaker 2: big part of our military now, is AI. AI is unbelievable.
12:49
Speaker 2: You know, we have satellite photography. When you go online
12:53
Speaker 2: and you look at satellite photos and you can zoom
12:56
Speaker 2: in on a house or something like that. That's the amateur stuff.
12:59
Speaker 2: The stuff the government has their satellite imagery is unbelievable.
13:03
Speaker 2: You can zoom in right on a license plate. You
13:06
Speaker 2: can zoom in down to like an inch with perfect clarity.
13:09
Speaker 2: It's unbelievable. So we use that satellite photography to look
13:12
Speaker 2: at faces, to look at stuff in the streets of Iran.
13:16
Speaker 2: Study everybody out in the streets, see everybody, and then
13:19
Speaker 2: one of the things you can do is you can
13:20
Speaker 2: try to identify the faces. Who's a Republican guard, who's
13:25
Speaker 2: a you know, one of the Iatola's inner circle. Well,
13:29
Speaker 2: it takes forever. You'd need thousands and thousands of people
13:32
Speaker 2: and hours and weeks and months of studying the satellite photos.
13:36
Speaker 2: But we use AI. Now AI can do that. If
13:39
Speaker 2: there's a crowd of a thousand, it could look at
13:40
Speaker 2: all thousand faces and in a millisecond identify exactly who
13:45
Speaker 2: they are. That we've been using AI for all kinds
13:47
Speaker 2: of stuff. Also, you know, tracking down where drones came from,
13:52
Speaker 2: missiles came from. It's made an incredible difference for us
13:56
Speaker 2: luckily as far as AI military technology where way way
14:00
Speaker 2: ahead of everybody else. Hey, Savannah Guthrie issuing a terrible
14:05
Speaker 2: you know, tearful, plea moving. Please don't forget about my mother.
14:10
Speaker 2: Please don't stop looking. You know everybody's forgotten about it.
14:13
Speaker 2: It's never in the news anymore. Most of the big
14:16
Speaker 2: reporters covering it have packed up and gone home. But
14:19
Speaker 2: she just begging people, don't forget keep going through anything
14:23
Speaker 2: and everything. Every little detail you never know, no matter
14:27
Speaker 2: how insignificant it could be, could be important. No detail
14:30
Speaker 2: is too small, she said. We continue to believe we'll
14:34
Speaker 2: find her or find an answer. And the other thing
14:36
Speaker 2: she's coming back to the Today Show looks like maybe
14:38
Speaker 2: April tenth, Savannah Guthrie will return to The Today Show.
14:43
Speaker 2: Obviously not a lot of people watch it anymore, but
14:46
Speaker 2: obviously there'll be big, big ratings that morning when she returns. Hey,
14:51
Speaker 2: we'll take some calls next. Eight hundred three to two
14:53
Speaker 2: one zero seven ten is the number eight hundred three

Speaker 2: how you doing.
15:21
Speaker 1: How are you doing? Mark?
15:23
Speaker 5: This is a little bit off topic, but perhaps you're
15:25
Speaker 5: did clarify?
15:26
Speaker 2: I know we had a topic, but go ahead.
15:29
Speaker 5: Okay, Well I was you know, I've lived in New
15:31
Speaker 5: York for fifty years. So I went down to the
15:33
Speaker 5: subway last week on Patty's Day and there was Smoky
15:39
Speaker 5: the Bear ads all over plastered all over the subway. No,
15:45
Speaker 5: I don't notice there's a forest around here? Is there
15:48
Speaker 5: a forest in New York?
15:51
Speaker 6: Now?
15:51
Speaker 2: That happens sometimes you buy a certain package of ads
15:55
Speaker 2: and they put you in thirty seven different places, six
15:58
Speaker 2: of which you don't need.
16:00
Speaker 5: I know it's a PSA, but you know, I mean,
16:02
Speaker 5: let's I mean, unless you can control lightning.
16:07
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's some great advertising agencies out there, in marketing agencies,
16:14
Speaker 2: but there's some really bad ones that'll put your ads
16:16
Speaker 2: in all the wrong places. I see it happen all
16:18
Speaker 2: the time with politicians and the other people that got
16:20
Speaker 2: even then the radio, they got their ads on the
16:22
Speaker 2: wrong radio station, wrong time period. Be very careful which
16:26
Speaker 2: agency you use, which marketing agency, advertising agency. One good
16:30
Speaker 2: thing about iHeart when you come here when you're a sponsor.
16:33
Speaker 2: Sometimes we have to help you out with that and
16:35
Speaker 2: tell you where your your media buyers were making some
16:37
Speaker 2: big mistakes. Let's go to Mike and Long Island. Mike,
16:41
Speaker 2: how you doing Hey? Mark?
16:43
Speaker 4: Good morning? How you doing good? Mark?
16:45
Speaker 1: I was I was.
16:46
Speaker 4: Reading about the straits of her moves that the Armenian
16:49
Speaker 4: tankers are still going through. You know, their their own
16:52
Speaker 4: oil was going through. My question isn't why aren't we
16:55
Speaker 4: seizing all their tankers and just holding them? Well, can
16:59
Speaker 4: you explain why the army not doing that?
17:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, some some tigers are being let through, but but
17:04
Speaker 2: we don't need the season. We have no need for
17:06
Speaker 2: their oil.
17:09
Speaker 4: It's not our oil that we need. But like if
17:11
Speaker 4: we can, you know, two can play the same game.
17:14
Speaker 2: Yeah, but we don't want to play that game.
17:15
Speaker 4: We'll release our oil when they release our oil.
17:18
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, we do have a lot of their oil.
17:20
Speaker 2: There's a bunch of Iranian oil that was already out
17:22
Speaker 2: at sea. Actually we've just released it just to just
17:25
Speaker 2: to put oil into the market. But it's I understow
17:28
Speaker 2: what you're saying. It's just not a necessary move. We
17:30
Speaker 2: really don't need to do it. And just always remember
17:33
Speaker 2: we don't use the straits of horror moves here in
17:34
Speaker 2: the US, we don't use any of that oil. It
17:37
Speaker 2: means nothing for us. Let's go to gym in New Jersey. Jym,
17:40
Speaker 2: how you doing.
17:42
Speaker 1: I see three names here. You're one of your old friends,
17:46

17:49
Speaker 1: haven't talked to them in a while.
17:50

Speaker 1: her Oscar Win from nineteen six, six sixty marks. She
18:38
Speaker 1: went an oscar in nineteen sixty for Elmer Gantry. The
18:41
Speaker 1: supporting actor told me about that question.
18:43
Speaker 2: You go to these autograph shows, and yes, sir, what
18:46
Speaker 2: do you do with these autographs?
18:50
Speaker 1: I make, I get it for other people, some might
18:52
Speaker 1: keep for myself. Next month it's coming up again. I'm
18:56
Speaker 1: not going to tell you who's gonna be there because
18:57
Speaker 1: I'm going to hold you in suspense. I like to
18:58
Speaker 1: call you, I got some real you got some real names.
19:02
Speaker 1: Next month's a couple of ninety year olds and Sally
19:05
Speaker 1: Struthers Diane Cannon will be there. So well, I'll head
19:08
Speaker 1: over in about three weeks.
19:09
Speaker 2: You know, it's kind of sad. These are people that
19:11
Speaker 2: were major motion picture starts. Now they're doing this. Now
19:14
Speaker 2: they're doing autograph shows in New Jersey with guy's like
19:18
Speaker 2: huge role. It's not the same.
19:20
Speaker 1: Well, it's fun. And the one guy's going to be there,
19:22
Speaker 1: he was. He's ninety five. He was on the Gomer
19:25
Speaker 1: Pile Show. His name was Ronnie Shell. Oh, Ronnie Shell
19:28
Speaker 1: is a great guy. He played Duke on Gomer Pile
19:30
Speaker 1: And by the way, follow him on Facebook. He's very
19:33
Speaker 1: active on Facebook. He yeah, he looks great. I'll report
19:38
Speaker 1: all right.
19:38
Speaker 2: Thanks. He posts a lot of stuff up there Facebook.
19:43
Speaker 2: Ronnie Shell he was in gomer Pile and he once
19:46
Speaker 2: did a TV show called Good Morning World nineteen sixty
19:49
Speaker 2: seven where he played a morning disc jockey. It's actually
19:53
Speaker 2: only lasted one season, but it was a great show.
19:56
Speaker 2: Let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn. Vincent, how you doing?
19:59
Speaker 6: Good morning, Mark? I'm okay, Good morning Matra. What nerve?
20:02
Speaker 6: Richard Blooming though that the guy has no shame. He's
20:05
Speaker 6: out there, as you pointed out, talking about, oh, you
20:08
Speaker 6: might get shot by an ice agent. Well, conveniently enough,
20:12
Speaker 6: he didn't mention that the Chicago authorities arrested the illegal
20:18
Speaker 6: alien who allegedly shot into that crowd of Loyola College
20:23
Speaker 6: students and unfortunately hit the eighteen year old what's the
20:28
Speaker 6: last name of Golvin from up in the Burbs and
20:31
Speaker 6: everything killed. He conveniently forgot to mention that. In Today's
20:37
Speaker 6: New York Post, there's a great article that chronicles everything
20:41
Speaker 6: that you've been speaking about the dangers of these e
20:45
Speaker 6: bikes and these electric scooters. It chronicled that last year alone,
20:49
Speaker 6: and they even go back further but last year four
20:53
Speaker 6: people were killed were from these e bikes and fifteen
20:58
Speaker 6: fifteen people were seriously injured. Did Monday go visit the
21:06
Speaker 6: people who were injured or the families of the people
21:09
Speaker 6: who got killed. No. He goes out to Rikers Island
21:13
Speaker 6: last week when Ramadan, the feast of Ramadan ends, and
21:17
Speaker 6: he break spread with all the in mins. This is
21:20
Speaker 6: in the post of all the the.
21:24
Speaker 2: Was We'll get to that coming up, Vincent, great point,
21:27
Speaker 2: thanks for calling. You have mom. Donnie went to Rikers
21:29
Speaker 2: to pray with the inmates. I mean, this is the
21:32
Speaker 2: most disgusting mayor we have ever seen. We'll get to
21:35
Speaker 2: that coming up when we come back. Michael Goodwin, the
21:37
Speaker 2: greatest columnists in America. He'll be with us next time
21:41
Speaker 2: seven to ten wr.
21:44
Speaker 4: Mark them.
21:47
Speaker 2: Well with us right now. The greatest columnists in America.
21:50
Speaker 2: Michael Goodwin. You can read them every Sunday every Wednesday
21:53
Speaker 2: in the New York Post and all his columns are
21:55
Speaker 2: up on the New York Post website. Michael Goodwin, how
21:58
Speaker 2: you doing, Good morning?
22:00
Speaker 6: Mark? Thank you?
22:01
Speaker 2: Hey? What a column about our crazy governor Kathy Hochel,
22:04
Speaker 2: who tells everybody to get the hell out now. She's
22:07
Speaker 2: telling everybody please come back. What is going on between
22:11
Speaker 2: her ears?
22:13
Speaker 7: Well, I do believe that although the polls show her
22:17
Speaker 7: having a big lead over her Republican opponent, I do
22:22
Speaker 7: think there is some sign that she's running scared.
22:26
Speaker 6: She may not.
22:27
Speaker 7: Believe those polls, but I think it has to do
22:31
Speaker 7: with the record that she has built, and she's effectively
22:36
Speaker 7: now running against her record because she realizes it's a liability.
22:42
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's running against Bruce Blakeman. He'll be with us
22:44
Speaker 2: in the next hour. He's a come from behind guy.
22:47
Speaker 2: He did it in Nassau County. He was way behind
22:49
Speaker 2: the polls. The polls were wrong. He's got real star
22:52
Speaker 2: power and he's perfect for governor. He's been the best
22:55
Speaker 2: county executive in America. That's a governor's sort of a job.
22:59
Speaker 2: So what do you think he could pull this off? Goodly?
23:02
Speaker 7: Could he could? But I think he will need some help,
23:06
Speaker 7: and the help will have to come I think from Mamdani,
23:11
Speaker 7: the socialist mayor of the city, because he is becoming
23:16
Speaker 7: so unpopular and some of his ideas that I think
23:21
Speaker 7: if Hoko gets too close to him and tries to
23:25
Speaker 7: give him the tax hikes, that he wants and all
23:29
Speaker 7: the spending he wants to do, then that's going to
23:32
Speaker 7: be a trap for her, which is why I think
23:36
Speaker 7: she is now trying to run away from this idea
23:40
Speaker 7: of a tax and spend democrat, you know, trying to
23:43
Speaker 7: get the rich to come back from Florida, trying to
23:47
Speaker 7: fix the Climate Act, which he have been a big
23:50
Speaker 7: supporter of. So all these signs tell me that she
23:56
Speaker 7: sees some danger in her relationship with him and his
24:01
Speaker 7: socialist ideas and antie Israel advocacy. So I think he
24:08
Speaker 7: is kind of He could help her a lot in
24:11
Speaker 7: the city, or he could help sink her and the
24:15
Speaker 7: rest of the state.
24:16
Speaker 2: Yeah. But then the Bruce Blakeman adds, just right themselves.
24:19
Speaker 2: You just cut together the flip flops of Kathy Hochel,
24:22
Speaker 2: and that's what did in John Kerry. Don't you think
24:24
Speaker 2: that would ruin her in the end?
24:28
Speaker 7: Yes? I think it would certainly help to point out
24:31
Speaker 7: the insincerity of her newfound concern about taxes and spending. Look,
24:39
Speaker 7: Blakeman has been saying the right things. We haven't seen
24:45
Speaker 7: any movement in his direction in the polls yet, but
24:50
Speaker 7: there's lots of time, and I think he's got to
24:53
Speaker 7: be quick on his seat to exploit every mistake that
24:59
Speaker 7: she in this regard.
25:02
Speaker 2: All right, now, let me ask you a question if
25:03
Speaker 2: you had to, you're taking a big exam, whose test
25:06
Speaker 2: paper would you copy off of vocals or Blakeman's.
25:13
Speaker 7: That's a self incriminating question.
25:17
Speaker 2: Yeah. So Blakeman is phenomenal, uh county executive. He'd be
25:23
Speaker 2: a great governor. And let me let's get to mom
25:25
Speaker 2: Downy for a second. What the hell is he doing
25:27
Speaker 2: going to Rikers Island praying with the inmates and he's
25:32
Speaker 2: never gone and done that with cops.
25:33
Speaker 7: I mean no, or, as I say, is he going
25:37
Speaker 7: to go and pray with the victims of the inmates?
25:40
Speaker 7: Probably not. I mean he has aligned himself with the
25:47
Speaker 7: outside forces right, whether it's he's going to arrest Benjamin
25:53
Speaker 7: Nating Yahoo, he comes to New York. Uh, he is
25:58
Speaker 7: a log himself with the people who are problems in
26:03
Speaker 7: New York, with people who want to destroy America, destroy Israel.
26:08
Speaker 7: I mean A Post has another good piece today on
26:11
Speaker 7: his wife and her illustrations for the anti Israro crowd.
26:17
Speaker 7: So he's got a very checkered record, to say the least,
26:23
Speaker 7: and The question is can enough of his supporters decide
26:29
Speaker 7: they made a mistake so that he has to begin
26:33
Speaker 7: to change his song.
26:35
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's I mean, I don't think he understands the
26:38
Speaker 2: role of mayor. It's a management job. It's not right
26:41
Speaker 2: being an activist or being a crazy.
26:44
Speaker 7: Mark I had the exact same thought that you don't
26:47
Speaker 7: see him murty dean mayor. You see him being a candidate.
26:53
Speaker 7: He's still running and this issue, he's clearly playing around
26:59
Speaker 7: with the city budget and the bond readings and three Well,
27:03
Speaker 7: when three rating agencies within a short period say that
27:08
Speaker 7: the city's outlook has gone from stable to negative and
27:13
Speaker 7: they cite his plans and his preliminary budget, there's a
27:18
Speaker 7: real warning shot across val Yeah.
27:20
Speaker 2: Hey, Michael Good, let me ask you one more thing.
27:22
Speaker 2: The idea of sending the ice agents into the airports
27:27
Speaker 2: to back up the TSA's a good idea. But I
27:29
Speaker 2: can understand Democrats want to attack the idea. But these
27:33
Speaker 2: crazy statements like Richard Blumenthal saying the Ice agents will
27:37
Speaker 2: grab children away from their families, will brutalize people, might
27:40
Speaker 2: even shoot people. What is wrong with these Blumenthal types
27:45
Speaker 2: to even say something like that?
27:46
Speaker 7: Yeah, some disease Trump's arrangement. Right, anything Trump does has
27:53
Speaker 7: to be the end of the world, or does it
27:56
Speaker 7: make news? And that's the way the Democrats are is
28:01
Speaker 7: hyperbolic competition. They have to say the most outrageous, fear
28:07
Speaker 7: mongering things in order to get any attention. And of
28:11
Speaker 7: course the media is happy to play along with it
28:15
Speaker 7: because they're singing from the same tune. But look, I
28:19
Speaker 7: do believe that something's got to be done about the airports.
28:23
Speaker 7: And this is the response to Chuck Schumer's refusal to
28:29
Speaker 7: vote for the Department of Homeland Security budget. I mean
28:33
Speaker 7: Homeland security. I mean it's amazing. Is this just the
28:38
Speaker 7: title itself should should wake them up?
28:41
Speaker 2: Yeah, well I wouldn't count on it. But Michael Goodwin
28:45
Speaker 2: great stuff. Read his column, his Sunday column if you
28:48
Speaker 2: missed it, and you get all his columns, they're all
28:50
Speaker 2: up on the New York Post website. Michael Goodwin every
28:53
Speaker 2: Sunday and Wednesday. And thanks for being with us.
28:57
Speaker 7: My pleasure, Mark, thank you.
28:58
Speaker 2: Take care if you haven't seen that bloominhal tweet. And
29:01
Speaker 2: then there was a Chuck Schumer on Morning Joe This Morning,
29:06
Speaker 2: huffing and puffing, And I mean, you got to give
29:10
Speaker 2: the President credit when it comes to trolling Democrats. He
29:14
Speaker 2: is brilliant at it. The idea of sending ice into
29:17
Speaker 2: the airports, what a great way to aggravate them into
29:20
Speaker 2: doing something. And watch ice will do a great job
29:23
Speaker 2: speed up things, and then the Democrats will go even
29:26
Speaker 2: more nuts. We're gonna talk to Bruce Blakeman in the
29:29
Speaker 2: next hour. We've got a lot coming up, a lot
29:32
Speaker 2: to get to. We'll get the justin Timberlake, they released
