  Speaker 2: Well, we got a lot to get to. We'll get

• 0:13
  Speaker 2: some interesting developments there. We'll get to the Russia Ukraine meetings.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: We'll get to the Cabinet meeting. We'll get to Oh,
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: yesterday's election, of course, a couple of the interesting elections.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: What does it mean for the mid terms. We'll get
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: to Christmas. Today's one of those gridlock alert days. This
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: is a regular thing now. We keep hearing the other
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: day was a gridlock alert day. Today's a gridlock alert day.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: I thought congestion pricing was supposed to fix all of that.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: Apparently it doesn't do much. We still have gridlock alert days.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: Christmas tree lighting is tonight Rockefeller Center. That's where you'll
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: see some gridlock. That is an absolute snarled up mess
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: around that tree lighting. So that's tonight at Rockefeller Center.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: So just avoid that area completely if you're driving, even
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: if you're walking, it's tough to walk around there. The
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: sidewalks is so packed. So has get to the elections.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: A special election in Tennessee. This was an interesting election.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: Nashville is the district is pretty much covering Nashville, Tennessee.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: You know what, they call it, music City, the country
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: music capital of the world. So they had a Mom
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: Donnie running. It's a woman, but as we've been telling you,
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: there's about twenty six other Mom Donni's ready to be
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: launched by Democrats. And she was just like Mom Donnie
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: on paper, a total disaster, horrible past, horrible things she
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: said in her past, I mean, crazy socialist nonsense on paper,
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: no chance to win anything. But like Mom Donnie in
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: person and online and social media and on camera, charming,
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: got a nice smile, got a nice personality, lots of energy, young, energetic, charming,
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: just like a Mom Donnie. And she did very, very well.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: She made it a real race. It was supposed to
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: be no contest at all, but she made it very close.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Republicans panicked and came in with millions of dollars trying
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: to save that race. And then the Republican Matt Van
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Epps one easily. It turns out by nine points. But
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: you're gonna hear the fake news try to make it
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: sound like it's a real nightmare. For it's a warning
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: sign for Republicans. Why Trump won that district by twenty
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: two points. That's a tremendous loss of points for the
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: But not really. That's Trump and this Republican candidate, Matt
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: Van Epps, he's good, but he's a boring, drab sort
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: of a guy. How's he going to get the numbers
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: Trump gets? And no local candidate's gonna get Trump numbers.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Trump gets Trump numbers. So Van Epps did just fine.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: But again, you're gonna have a lot more of these candidates.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: And it's a strange phenomenon, but these mom Donnie types.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: This woman in the color the AOC of Tennessee, she's
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: running for Congress in the district that is Nashville, Tennessee.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: She comes right out and says, I hate Nashville. She
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: even said I hate country music. She hates Nashville. She
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: hates country music. That's their main industry, country music. That's
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: why they call it music. City tourism is the number
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: one industry. But it doesn't matter to Democratic voters. You
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: see the same thing here with Mam Donnie hates capitalism.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: That's our main industry in New York, Wall Street, financial world,
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: hedge funds, that's the main industry of New York years ago,
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: it was other stuff. It was like the garment center,
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: but that's all gone. So now the main industry of
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: New York is the financial business. And Mam Donnie runs
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: saying he hates them, he can't stand them. So you're
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: going to see a lot of this. Now you're going
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: to see somebody run for mayor of Detroit. He says,
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: I hate cars. You're going to see this all the time.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: These Democratic voters don't care. Can show them how bad
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: the candidate is. Look what they said in the past.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: Look at this. Look how they never worked, they never
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: had it they did. The Democratic voters don't care. Doesn't
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: matter long as the person yells the word affordability all
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: the time. That's all you gotta do is just keep
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: saying affordability, affordability, affordability. Now, there's nobody on earth less
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: qualified to do something about affordability than Zoron, Mamdannie or
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: this woman in Tennessee. What's your name is it? Afton Bane?
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: That's another name nobody can pronounce like Mam Donnie. So
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: they all got weird names, no resume. They've said crazy
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: kookie things in the past, but they look good, they
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: sound good, and they keep saying affordability, So Democrats vote
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: for them. You got two things going on. They're voting
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: on just knee jerk emotional voting, affordability I'll vote for
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: or they just hate Trump so much they'll vote for
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: anybody who they think hates Trump. And if you get
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: one of these socialists, one of these affordability young no resume,
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: they must really hate Trump, I'll vote for them. So
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: Democrats going crazy to vote for this stuff. What does
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: it mean for the midterms, Well, it's going to be
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: a factor in the midterms. If these kind of voters
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: are going to turn out in droves to vote for
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: anybody they think hates Trump, that's a problem for Republicans
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: in the midterms. Now, the good news is it's a
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: year away. You got plenty of time. There's a couple
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: of groups that do the research for the Democratic Party
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: and then it's distributed to everybody and they all jump
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: on it. One of them came up with the word
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: affordability a while back, and that's why, all of a sudden,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: in every race they're all using the word affordability. This
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: is very, very coordinated. There's a couple of these groups,
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: big monstrous organizations that do incredible intense research focus groups
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: studying people that they come up with the stuff, and
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: then there's other groups K Street that distribute it. They
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: have these morning conference calls and they have these things
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: that go to every Democrat telling him what words, what phrases,
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: what sentences to say. So one of them is a Navigator.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: Navigator does incredible research done. Then the other thing they've
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: come up with a Navigator is not only is affordability working,
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: it's growing. The momentum behind this affordability affordability they are
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: finding in their studying studying people. The ballroom is a
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: good issue to use on this people. When when you
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: talk to these people, well, what do you mean affordability
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: voters they're terrified of the prices going up and they
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: can't afford groceries, or they can't afford their medicine, and
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: really terrified that they won't be able to afford their healthcare,
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: that they'll lose their healthcare, this kind of stuff. So
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: they're finding in this latest round of studying you can
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: use the ballroom on that that while you're terrified of
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: being able to buy groceries and pay your health care,
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: he's building a ballroom and look at all the gold
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: he's putting up all over the walls, and this vers
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: sie like ballroom. This is the last thing in the
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: world you want to see when it's an affordability crisis.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: So expect to see a lot of ballroom stuff coming
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: in the next few weeks, maybe the next few months.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: They're going to start using the ballroom as a major issue.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: You know, Trump is like some sort of emperor, some
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: sort of king in a palace while you can't afford
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: your groceries. The ballroom it's symbolic, it's not real. I mean,
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: first of all, the ballroom isn't costing taxpayers anything. It's
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: privately funded and it's something they actually do need. They've
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: talked about it for years. But they're going to start
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: using it against Trump. Here's the first round New York
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: Times doing a story about the ballroom. Every story about
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: the ballroom is negative. Of course, it's too big, it's
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: to this, it's too that. It screws up the White
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: House grounds. It's me. He said he wouldn't tear down
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: anything of the building. Well I guess he did. But
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: you know it's fine. There was nothing in what the
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: party tore down had nothing in it. First lady's office.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: You can easily move her to somewhere else. And the
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: main thing in there was the calligraphy office. They do
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: the the you know, the little place cards for dinner
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: and sometimes the invitations. It's not vital government work. But
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: now this New York Times expose is pretty frightening. It's
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: pretty frightening. It goes on and on about the terrible
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: problems now with this ballroom. According to this New York
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: Times article, there have been disagreements between Trump and the
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: contractor and Trump and the architect. Now, if you're one
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: of these crazy old ladies who watches MSNBC and reads
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: the New York Times and hates Trump, and you run
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: around yelling about this is perfect, We'll talk about this
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: all this, he's not getting along. Even the architect has
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: arguing with him, even the contractors are. Of course, you
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: can't ever explain to him reality that this is perfectly normal. Everybody,
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: when you're doing remodeling, when you're remodeling your bathroom, your kitchen,
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: building a house, this is perfectly normal. About eleven times
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: in the process you fight with the contractor about something,
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: you disagree with the architect about something. It's perfectly normal.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: And then it goes on to say that Trump has
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: The reason they're going so crazy is Trump's behavior has
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: been unbelieved. It was supposed to be a five hundred
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: seat ballroom, then it grew to six hundred and fifty seats.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: Next he wanted a nine hundred and ninety nine seat ballroom.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: Now he's talking about room for thirteen hundred. That way
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: they could host the inaugural. Yeah, it's a pretty good idea.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: I like that. So they go on and on the
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: size of the prodg' raising alarms. People working on the
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: ballroom have been told they don't need to follow permitting, zoning,
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: or code requirements. Why this is outrageous, Trump pointing out
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: since it's on the White House grounds, it's not subject
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: to local Washington DC permit requirement. Well, he's probably right,
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: that makes perfect sense. So this goes on in a
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: but they never explained in the article. This is not
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: like Baraco bomb. I'm trying to tell these guys what
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: to do. This is one of the greatest builders in
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: the history of the world, and out of all the
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: great builders in America right now, nobody has more experience
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: building ballrooms than this guy. In fact, the architect who
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: they think is some god you should bow down to.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: Apparently he's never built a ballroom in his life. He's
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: done cathedrals and he's done with work in Washington, but
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: he's never actually done it. But Trump is the world
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: expert on building ballrooms. So they don't point this out
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: in this article. I would have total confidence in what
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: he's doing here. But you're gonna hear a lot more
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: about the ballroom. They're gonna make this a big thing now.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: They're going to continue with the war crimes hoax for
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: a while, hoping that works. If that doesn't work, they'll
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: go to the ballroom. Here's Trump on the ballroom.
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: We're building one of the great I think maybe the
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: greatest ballroom. We needed it for one hundred and fifty years.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: They've been asking. You see that the.
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: Trucks and cranes and excavators in the background, and you
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: hear them, And every time I hear them, I love
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: to sound.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: He said that once. I heard him say that on that.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: You know when when when you're a home and they're
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: doing construction next door, you're in your apartment, they're doing construction.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: Oh god, that noise, Oh my god, when's this gonna
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: you just hate that noise. He loves that sound. Construction.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: It's music to him. It's the thing he loves most
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: in life, construction. So he enjoys hearing the noise outside
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: of the oval office. But so they may use the ballroom.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: Once the war crimes hoax will die out. The war
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: crimes hoax, they think they got them here. These are
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: war crimes.
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: First off, you're gonna you decided you're gonna blow up
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: that boat with drugs on it and drug cartel members.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: It's a boat filled with drug cartel and drugs. You've
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: decided you will blow it up. You will kill them
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: all and blow it up. So you fire a bomb.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: I guess they fire a few bombs and if there's
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: anything left, you fire another bomber. Well, that sounds perfectly
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: normal to me. I'm not a milletry guy, but I'm
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: not an expert. But if you talk to the top
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: generals of the world, the jack Keanes sort of guys,
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: they'll tell you it's perfectly normal. You hit it with bombs,
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: and you keep hitting it until you're absolutely certain everything
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: is gone. Like when they went to take out the
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: Iran nuclear reactors. You don't drop one bomb and that's it.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: You keep remember you remember the videos, they just get
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: bombinan and bombinan and bombited until they were absolutely sure
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: they got everything. That's the way you do it. So
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: there's no war crime here. You're going to see all
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: these fake news. It's these Martha raddits as if she
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: knows what she's talking about. It violates the Geneva and
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: there's an enemy combatant and you're not allowed to kill
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: an enemy combatant. When did this rule happen? Now? You
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: remember during the Obama administration he was doing it as
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: drone strikes. There were drone strikes all the time in Afghanistan,
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: in Iraq, and very often he killed civilians. We know this.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: He killed a lot of Sivillians accidentally with the drone
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: strikes and sometimes on purpose because they were near what
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: they target was, so they took him out. And you
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: remember the one time he hit a wedding with one
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: of the drones, blew up a wedding, killed a lot
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: of people. But of the millions of times that killed civilians,
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: and of course the same fake news didn't care I
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: mention a word about it. There's even a hearing actually
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: if you go to my Twitter you can see the video.
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: There's a great hearing. This is from the Biden administration
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: where the drone strike killed a bunch of civilians, innocent civilians,
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: and Mark Kelly seditious. Mark Kelly is interviewing the general
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: about it and he explains, yes, we did kill the civilians.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: And Mark Kelly said, okay, my next question is and
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: that just moves right on. He couldn't care less let
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: it go, turned the other way. But that's the way
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: they're the hypocrisy democrats are famous for. So when the
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: war crimes hoax fizzles out because people aren't buying it,
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: nobody cares. They'll move on to the ballroom now right now.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: They're also trying the health and Trump. He didn't doze off,
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: but there were one time and Pete Hegsath, I think
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: it was Pete Heggsath's going a little long. Trump closed
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: his eyes, so they showed the video. Look at this,
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: his eyes are closed. He fell asleep in the cabin
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: at me. This is all, but watch it carefully. Go
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: watch the video for yourself. There's a couple of times
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: you see Pete Hegsett made some kind of joke and
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: you can see Trump's laughing. His eyes are closed, but
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: he's laughing. He's reacting to everything he's saying. But they
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: love talking about his health and how bad he is.
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: If I go one day, I had one day where
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: I didn't do a news conference.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: There's something wrong with the president.
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: Few people are crazy. I'll let you know with there's
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: something wrong. There will be someday that's gonna happen to
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: all of us. But right now I think I'm sharper
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: than I was twenty five years ago. But who the
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: hell does I took By the way I took my
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: physical I got old a's everything.
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but uh, he's very funny yesterday.
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: But you always find something new, like is he in
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: good health? Biden was great, but he's Trump did good health.
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: I said, here, I do for news conferences a day.
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: I guess questions from very intelligent lunatics.
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: I always give.
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: I give them the right edges. There's never a scandal,
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: there's never a problem. I give you engines that solve
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: you a little problem.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: Now he's in great health, of course, And the cabinet
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: meeting was pretty interesting. We'll go over that cabinet meeting
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: a little later. But you know a lot of people
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: think Trump has to go back to campaign mode. Like
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: we were talking about the affordability, even though it's a
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: fake issue. I mean, you want affordability, it's fake in
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: that these Democrats couldn't possibly do anything about it. This
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: guy like Zoron Mamdani or this woman that ran in
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: Tennessee could never ever ever do anything about affordability. They
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: wouldn't know how to do. They wouldn't begin to know
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: how to So they went to Trump before the midterms,
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: go back into campaign mode. You know, he was different
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: in the campaign. Now he's in the oval office and
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: it's very ornate. That's the other problem. It was nice
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: to make it all gold and look unbelievably, unbelievably luxurious,
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: and it looks like a palace, but that kind of
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: reinforces the dictator king kind of thing. He made it
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: look like a palace, so psychologically it made him look
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: more like a king. They wanted to go back into
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: campaign mode. Remember when we got in the garbage truck
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: and he drove the garbage truck. Remember when he worked
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: in McDonald's. That's where he looked like he was really
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: in touch. So he's got to do more of that. Also,
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: people are advising him, you got to do more. Go
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: back to those podcasts, the Joe Rogan type podcasts, that
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: kind of stuff, you know, those blue collar, down to
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: earth kind of podcasts. More of that, more driving the
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: garbage truck. So you might see more of that coming
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: at some point to counter all of this stuff. Hey,
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: we'll take some calls. Next. Eight hundred three to two
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: one zero seven ten. Is the number eight hundred three
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: to two one zero seven ten.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: That's a marshamore.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: Hey, let's take some calls. Let's go to Robert in Westchester. Robert,
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: how you doing all right?
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: Mark? And good morning? Thank you for taking my call. Mark.
• 17:13
  Speaker 5: I don't know if you remember when that atrocity of
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: a pull out happened under the Biden administration when we will.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: Don't know if I remember it? What am i? Joe Biden?
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: Of course I remember it right before you tell us
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: everything we already know. Is there a point?
• 17:30
  Speaker 5: The point is right after that Milly said, after they
• 17:34
  Speaker 5: killed seven.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, we know the whole story. Everybody's familiar with it.
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: What is the point?
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: The point is where's the media went? They didn't counce
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: on Biden or anybody. They didn't.
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know if you heard, but the media
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: is slanted. They defend Democrats, they cover up from Democrats,
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: and they go after anything Trump, if it's Biden, they'll
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: defend them like crazy, cover up anything. Yeah, Millie was
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: the absolute worst. All they do was to defend this guy.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: Let's go to Vic in Pennsylvania.
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: Vic.
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: How you doing. I'm doing great, Mark.
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: I got a question, where were the Democrats for the
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: Biden administration with affordability when we had nine point fio.
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: Again, it's Democrats and everything they do is okay, they're right,
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: they're always inflation was nine percent? You never heard him
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: mentioned affordability. Now in the defense of Democrats, they didn't
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: get that study yet. That focus group stuff didn't come
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: out yet. It came out later. And they see these
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: They pay a fortune of these groups navigators one. There's
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: a whole bunch of them. It's not a polling thing.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: It's not like some little college poll with a couple
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: of guys with iPads. I mean this. Yere massive research
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: groups that go out and they research and they find
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: out what what deep down people are and then they
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: find the right word. And they found that word affordability.
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: And that's why all these different races all over the country,
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: of a sudden, they got the same word affordability. It's
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: all coordinated. Let's go to Stuart in South Carolina. Stuart,
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: how you.
• 19:06
  Speaker 6: Doing, hey, Mark, Carol. You know, as far as that
• 19:09
  Speaker 6: election in Tennessee, there's a couple of points there. You know,
• 19:12
  Speaker 6: you're right, it was an off season election. And the
• 19:16
  Speaker 6: other problem is I live in a smaller southern town
• 19:19
  Speaker 6: right to Augusta, and for decades I never knew any liberals.
• 19:23
  Speaker 6: They are here in droves now, and I think that's
• 19:26
  Speaker 6: what happened in Tennessee. They're they're fleeing the north and
• 19:29
  Speaker 6: then voting in the same way they did up north
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: and destroying the new place that they lived.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, good point. Nashville was a little, tiny, medium
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: sized town and then a million people descend. It's now
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: one of the biggest, most thriving cities in America. But
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: you're right, all liberals came in exactly. Yeah, all right, Well,
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: so what was worse when you had Locus or when
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: you have all these liberals coming in?
• 19:52
  Speaker 6: You know, everybody here was friendly. You could not pass
• 19:55
  Speaker 6: anybody without somebody saying Hello, and now people won't even
• 19:59
  Speaker 6: look you in the eye. They just look down. They
• 20:01
  Speaker 6: wore dark clothes like they do up in New York.
• 20:04
  Speaker 6: And I feel like I'm in downtown Brooklyn. You don't
• 20:08
  Speaker 6: hear the Southern accent here anymore. Yeah, you just it's
• 20:12
  Speaker 6: very New York now and it's changed politics quite a bit,
• 20:16
  Speaker 6: and it's really scaring the heck ass. So with ma'm donnie.
• 20:20
  Speaker 6: I was afraid that a lot of people are going
• 20:22
  Speaker 6: to be moving down here now, yeah.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: I'm afraid. So you're gonna get more of them. They're
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: going to be all out of the place, all right,
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: Thanks for calling, Stuart. Yeah, if you watch the Andy
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: Griffith Show today, it'd be a whole different show. Actually,
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: you know what, that would be an actual good idea
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: for a sitcom. You bring back the Andy Griffith Show,
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: only his town is getting overrun by hipsters from Brooklyn
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: and New Yorkers and people from Long Island changing everything.
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: Let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn. Vincent, how you doing, Good.
• 20:51
  Speaker 7: Morning, Mark, I'm okay, Good morning Mara, Stuart. I live
• 20:56
  Speaker 7: in downtown Brooklyn and it's even worse than you think.
• 21:00
  Speaker 7: I mean, it is.
• 21:02
  Speaker 8: These liberals here are absolutely horrible and I'm sorry to
• 21:06
  Speaker 8: hear that they're bringing the liberal cancer down down South.
• 21:12
  Speaker 8: Mark uh the news media to fake news media don't
• 21:17
  Speaker 8: seem to realize or they don't want to report on it.
• 21:20
  Speaker 8: It's not affordability, it's unaffordability created by democratic politicians. The
• 21:28
  Speaker 8: property taxes and the fees run through everything like Montezuma's revenge.
• 21:36
  Speaker 8: These are the liberal news media in this country. Should
• 21:40
  Speaker 8: go query some of the world leaders in Europe because
• 21:45
  Speaker 8: I've seen the affairs that they have in the ballrooms
• 21:48
  Speaker 8: in Europe, and probably they're saying, thank god Donald Trump's
• 21:53
  Speaker 8: in office, because we're sick of having to go to
• 21:56
  Speaker 8: the bedroom import of sans.
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: Sit on plastic chair.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: What Vincent is talking about, Believe it or not, but
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: Vincent is startingment believe or not. That East Room of
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: the White House didn't hold very many people, so when
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: it had a big event, they had to do it
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: in a tent on the lawn and the guests had
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: to use porta potties.
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: Can you imagine porter partties compared to the Palace of Versailles.
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: Because Mark, I've seen and I've actually been in some
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: of these Italian ballrooms in these palaces. Donald Trump is
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: doing the right thing rather than spending two hundred and
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: fifty million dollars on some cheesy basketball court like Barack Obama.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, you're absolutely right, Vincent, a great call.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: The ballroom is a good act. Can you imagine you're
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: the president of France. You come to a major dinner
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: at the White House and it's in a tent on
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: the lawn and you have to go to a porter
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: body like you're at a wedding and hunting and this
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: is so Trump is absolutely right. Hey, when we come back,
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: here's a great guest. John Carney is one of the
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: best brightest guys on the economy in the world. He's
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: the editor of Breitbart Business Digest. But he is the
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: smartest guy. You'll love him. He'll be with us next
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: on seven to ten.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: Wr here's more marksimone on seven to ten.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: Woor Well, Hey, how do we pick our guests? We
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: just bring you the smartest people on earth and John
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: Carney brilliant. He is the business editor of Breitbart News
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: the Business Digest. By the way, you should sign up
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: for that daily newsletter, the Breitbart Business Digest Newsletter. Excellent stuff.
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: He writes that with Breitbart editor in chief Alex Marlow.
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: But he's a brilliant guy on the economy, on business
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: from Breitbart, John Carney, how you doing very good?
• 23:39
  Speaker 5: Doug's mark?
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: Hey anytime? So the election in Tennessee, the election wherever
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: you look. Affordability. They keep using this word affordability. Affordability. Now,
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: how do Democrats run every inch of New York for
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: fifteen years and then tell you there's an affordability crisis
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: and they'll fix it.
• 23:58
  Speaker 9: That's a great question. Look, the plans that the Democrats have,
• 24:03
  Speaker 9: particularly in New York and Mandami, won't make New York
• 24:07
  Speaker 9: any more affordable. In fact, his plan to freeze rents
• 24:12
  Speaker 9: will actually make it much harder for anybody to find
• 24:16
  Speaker 9: an apartment in New York because guess what happens when
• 24:19
  Speaker 9: a landlord can't raise the rent. It means that somebody
• 24:23
  Speaker 9: who otherwise would move out stays in the apartment forever.
• 24:28
  Speaker 9: I have friends who live in rent controlled apartments that
• 24:31
  Speaker 9: they inherited from their grandparents. Yeah, I mean, like literally,
• 24:35
  Speaker 9: they're like real estate royalty in New York. And it's
• 24:38
  Speaker 9: funny that a socialist is putting this in place. But
• 24:42
  Speaker 9: that's what it creates is people who never let go
• 24:44
  Speaker 9: of their apartments.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: Hey, so when you get to the midterms, I know
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: you could give me statistics and prove things are getting better.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: But Democrats in the fake news, they've done a good
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: job of creating the illusion that we're in a crisis
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: as far as inflation and prices. What does the president
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: need to do to counter that?
• 25:03
  Speaker 9: So one thing that the Trump and the Republicans have
• 25:07
  Speaker 9: an advantage, which is time is on their side. Right now,
• 25:12
  Speaker 9: inflation is running around three percent, but it's coming down.
• 25:17
  Speaker 9: We've seen the price of gasoline come down a lot
• 25:20
  Speaker 9: over the last two months, sheeper gasoline. The inflation continuing
• 25:25
  Speaker 9: to come down. I think by the time we get
• 25:28
  Speaker 9: to say, like next summer, so that which is around
• 25:33
  Speaker 9: when people start to decide how they're going to vote.
• 25:36
  Speaker 9: Right the people don't decide really on the election day.
• 25:39
  Speaker 9: They decide sometime, you know, a few months ahead of time.
• 25:42
  Speaker 9: By the time we get to next summer, I think
• 25:45
  Speaker 9: actually that this sure, the media will still talk about affordability,
• 25:50
  Speaker 9: but people won't be feeling it the way they are
• 25:53
  Speaker 9: right now. Right now, they're still dealing with basically the
• 25:56
  Speaker 9: hangover of Biden. Inflation prices went up a lot, but
• 26:00
  Speaker 9: as we get further and further away from that, inflation
• 26:03
  Speaker 9: will continue to come down and people's sort of anger
• 26:08
  Speaker 9: over how high prices already are will fade a little bit.
• 26:11
  Speaker 9: So a big time is on their side. So really,
• 26:13
  Speaker 9: all they need to do is stay the course, don't
• 26:17
  Speaker 9: freak out, and frankly, don't give it into this word affordability.
• 26:21
  Speaker 9: If you're talking about affordability as a Republican, you're losing.
• 26:26
  Speaker 9: You need to talk about opportunity, You need to talk
• 26:29
  Speaker 9: about growth. Affordability is Frankly, Donald Trump's right when he
• 26:35
  Speaker 9: called it a con job. It is a It is
• 26:38
  Speaker 9: a phrase that they never used when inflation is running
• 26:41
  Speaker 9: at nine percent under Biden. Now it's a crisis because
• 26:46
  Speaker 9: the media has made it one.
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: It's a con job. But it's a good one. It works,
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: you know it is.
• 26:50
  Speaker 9: It's working.
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: Hey.
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: But people have to realize as far as the big
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: beautiful bill, nothing is kicked in yet, right, What changes
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: now in January with that bill?
• 27:01
  Speaker 5: That's right?
• 27:01
  Speaker 9: So one o the We're going to see a couple
• 27:03
  Speaker 9: changes that are very important. One is the no tax
• 27:06
  Speaker 9: on tips, which will be a very big deal. You know,
• 27:10
  Speaker 9: if you are working in a service job and you
• 27:13
  Speaker 9: are paid primarily in tips, this is a huge tax
• 27:17
  Speaker 9: cut for you. So we're going to see that kick in. Also,
• 27:21
  Speaker 9: there will be no tax on additional income if you're
• 27:24
  Speaker 9: collecting Social Security, that will be important. The other thing
• 27:28
  Speaker 9: that has already started to kick in, and we're going
• 27:31
  Speaker 9: to see it even more as we get into the
• 27:32
  Speaker 9: new year is the automatic depreciation of capital investments. Now,
• 27:42
  Speaker 9: I know that sounds really wonky and nerdy, but what
• 27:45
  Speaker 9: it means is that businesses can actually invest and write
• 27:50
  Speaker 9: off right away the full expense of the new machinery
• 27:55
  Speaker 9: they buy, the new factory they build. That's a big
• 27:59
  Speaker 9: deal and it will encourage a lot more investment. And
• 28:02
  Speaker 9: when you get that kind of investment, you increase productivity,
• 28:06
  Speaker 9: which will then actually increase employment as well. So I
• 28:10
  Speaker 9: think actually the job market, which has been a little
• 28:13
  Speaker 9: shaky today we got a shaky report from the from ADP,
• 28:19
  Speaker 9: I think we're actually going to see the job markets
• 28:21
  Speaker 9: start to pick up a lot too, and that will
• 28:23
  Speaker 9: assuage people's fears about the economy as well.
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, also, you have a new FED chairman coming, But
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: how much difference is that going to make and the
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: role of the FED seems to be a little crazy
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: right now. It shouldn't have this kind of importance, should it.
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: That's right.
• 28:37
  Speaker 9: In a perfect world, we wouldn't care so much who
• 28:39
  Speaker 9: the FED chairman is. I think actually one of the
• 28:43
  Speaker 9: legacies of Jerome Powell has been a over highlighting of
• 28:49
  Speaker 9: the FED chairman. He looked.
• 28:53
  Speaker 10: Back in You know when under Paul Volker or Alan Greenspan,
• 28:57
  Speaker 10: nobody knew what the FED was doing because they didn't
• 28:59
  Speaker 10: even have conferences and when they got called before Congress
• 29:02
  Speaker 10: they were talk in riddles.
• 29:03
  Speaker 9: I'm not sure we need to go back to that.
• 29:05
  Speaker 9: But Bernanke when he was FED chairman, sat behind a
• 29:09
  Speaker 9: desk when he held this press conferences. It was kind
• 29:11
  Speaker 9: of like doing office hours with a professor. One of
• 29:14
  Speaker 9: the innovations of Jerome Powell was to stand in front
• 29:19
  Speaker 9: of a podium like he is the President of the
• 29:21
  Speaker 9: United States and basically bigest speech. I think the next
• 29:26
  Speaker 9: FED chairman, if I had one request, there would be
• 29:29
  Speaker 9: no more podium. Sit behind a desk. Again, don't act
• 29:33
  Speaker 9: like a politician, don't act like you're the most important
• 29:37
  Speaker 9: person in the world. Sit behind a desk, talk academically,
• 29:41
  Speaker 9: don't give a speech.
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good point, hey, John Carney. Now let
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: me ask some Democrats will complain about tariffs to tariffs
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: raised the prices tariffs. It's a burden on the consumer
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: because they'll pay the take, don't they? Then the Democrats
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: aren't they proposing tariffs when they talk about a corporate
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: tax increase. Isn't that the same thing, the same effect
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: as a tariff.
• 30:02
  Speaker 9: It's actually not just the same effect. It's the same
• 30:05
  Speaker 9: exact thing. The consumers don't pay tariffs, right. The first
• 30:09
  Speaker 9: person who pays a tariff is the person who is
• 30:12
  Speaker 9: importing a good That is a company, it's Walmart, it's Target,
• 30:17
  Speaker 9: it's a big business that is importing the goods those are.
• 30:22
  Speaker 9: That's who pays the tariff. It is a form of
• 30:24
  Speaker 9: a corporate tax. So when Democrats say, oh, you know
• 30:28
  Speaker 9: that that tax will be passed on to consumers, which,
• 30:31
  Speaker 9: by the way, it really hasn't been. What we businesses
• 30:35
  Speaker 9: have been telling us actually in all of their earnings
• 30:39
  Speaker 9: that they're actually having a really hard time trying to
• 30:41
  Speaker 9: pass it on to consumers. Who's paying it is it's
• 30:44
  Speaker 9: coming out of the bottom line of businesses or the
• 30:47
  Speaker 9: manufacturers abroad are lowering their price to keep themselves competitive
• 30:52
  Speaker 9: in the US. But a raise of corporate tax somehow,
• 30:57
  Speaker 9: the Democrats think, will mysteriously not be passed on. So
• 31:00
  Speaker 9: they say that the tariff will be, but the corporate
• 31:03
  Speaker 9: text won't. Their point really doesn't make much sense. And
• 31:07
  Speaker 9: if anything, a corporate tax is more likely to be
• 31:10
  Speaker 9: passed on to consumers because it can't be paid at
• 31:13
  Speaker 9: all by a foreign manufacturer. There's nobody to push it
• 31:17
  Speaker 9: back onto, so it will be paid by both consumers
• 31:21
  Speaker 9: and investors. Actually, which you know are is the same
• 31:25
  Speaker 9: thing you know people. It will come out of people's
• 31:28
  Speaker 9: four one ks, the retirement plans. That's who ends up
• 31:31
  Speaker 9: paying the corporate tax.
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: Wow. Very good explanation, Saya. So tariff's easier on the consumer.
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: Corporate tax boom hits the consumer immediately, absolutely, John Carney,
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: great having you on. Let's do it again soon and
• 31:44

  Speaker 2: December third. I walk in the lobby. There's a Christmas tree.
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: In the lobby of the building. There's a wreath, there's
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: a come up here to the sixth floor. I get
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: off the elevator, there's a Christmas tree. They walk by
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: Light FM. There's Christmas music all the time. It's everywhere. Yesterday,
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: walking over the Fox, the long sixth Avenue, the candy
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: canes are up, the big candy canes, the big ornaments
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: are up. The tree on top of the Marquee at
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: Radio City Music Hall. Tonight they light the tree and
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: Rockefeller Center. You know, Bryant Park, beautiful Bryant Park. But
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: that's become a big deal, that tree. They had their
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: tree lighting ceremony last night. A lot of people showed up.
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: It's not as big as the Rockefeller Center thing. They
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: don't have, you know, seventeen famous singers singing there, but
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: they're getting there year by year by year. So be
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: careful if you're driving tonight void Midtown Manhattan, Rockefeller Center,
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: it will be massive gridlock everywhere. Steve Whitkoff, our negotiator
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: and Jared Kushner, who wasn't of much use in the
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: first term of Trump, but this time around he's very
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: useful when it comes to these negotiations. He was brilliant
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: at settling things as much as you can between Israel
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: and Arab countries. He was very good in the first term.
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: So he and Witkoff are a good team. They do
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: the negotiating Israel, Hamas that sort of. But they're now
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: working on peace in Ukraine, settling that war. Looks like
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: they got a ways to go. But they had a
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: big meeting with Putin yesterday. Putin always, always, always will
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: keep you waiting. Don't you hate people that are always
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: late for something. They're just scatterbrain, they're flaky, they're late.
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: You're waiting for them forty minutes. And it's different with Putin.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: It's deliberate. It's deliberate. It's to put you in your place.
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: It's cyclogical warfare. He does even if it's the most
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: important international meeting, the president's envoys are coming from the
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: He'll keep you waiting deliberately. It's to just psyche you out.
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: Now it doesn't work because if you're wi cough and
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: you're Jared, you know he does this all the time.
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: You know he's going to keep you waiting an hour
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: and a half. It's just normal. This is what he does.
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: It's not personally does it to everybody? So they knew
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: and they went and just had a nice lunch. What
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: they waited for the guy and then he shows up.
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: You see the picture of him at the big negotiating table.
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: This is in Russia Moscow. It's a white table and
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: didn't look right. It looked like a table. Betty Crocker
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: would even roused. It's just something not very tough about it.
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: But they're all sitting around the table. And at twelve
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: thirty they began the conversation, Now, would you want to
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: talk to Putin? Who he wants to talk to Putin?
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: You look at that guy. When you see the video,
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: you say to yourself, yeah, I'd love to sit down
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: with that guy. It looks like the most unpleasant thing
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: you could do is talk to this guy. But they
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: sat down with him at twelve thirty. And the meeting,
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: which was not very successful. They were not able to
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: come to agreement. In fact, there was much disagreement. They
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: didn't make much progress. It made little progress, but not much.
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: The meeting lasted five hours, five hours. How the hell
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: did these guys do it? If I were you know,
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: Steve Whitcoffin is a wealthy guy, a big successful builder.
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: It does all kinds of work all over America, New York,
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: Palm Beach, Miami's Building building. Who that wants to give
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: all that up and go sit in a room with
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: Putin for five hours? Five hours of talking to Putin?
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: You can't even talk right to him. He's got an interpreter,
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: you know. I think he speaks English, but he pretends
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: he doesn't. Uses the interpreter. It gives himn extra time
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: to hear your question and think of an answer. But
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: so whit Coffin, Jared Kushner had to bring their own interpreter.
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: So when you see all these people at the table,
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: a couple of them are interpreters. A couple of them
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: are aids to Putin. So who the hell would want
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: to do this? Sit there and talk to Putin for
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: five hours? And be honest, you got a choice. You
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: have to do one or two things. You're gonna have
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: a delayed flight and you'll have to sit at the
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: gate for three hours or talk to Putin for five hours.
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: Which would you choose? Of course, you sit at the gate.
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: I can look at my phone, I can watch movies,
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: I can listen to podcasts. There'll be a snack bar there.
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: You could do a lot of who the hell was?
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: I talked to Putin for five hours, so there were
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: like twenty eight points. Putin was okay with the two
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: or three of them, but there were a lot of them.
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: He said, we just can't compromise on it. But they're
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: they're making some progress and they'll eventually get this done eventually. Now,
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: Trump will not go to the meeting until they're close.
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: And that's why you use wid coffin.
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: Jarrett.
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: You don't embarrass yourself by coming out empty handed five
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: times in a row. So you'll let these guys get
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: it very, very very close, and then you show up
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: Cabinet meeting yesterday. It was pretty interesting, the war crimes hoax,
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: all these guys like check Schumer trying to make it
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: suddenly they're war crime experts.
• 39:28
  Speaker 11: If Trump were to order an attack on land, that
• 39:32
  Speaker 11: would be an act of war and Congress would invoke
• 39:36
  Speaker 11: the War Powers Act. It's Congress's prerogative to go to war,
• 39:42
  Speaker 11: and I hope Republicans will defend that role.
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: This is just Schumer, a big blowharder, doesn't know what
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: he's talking about. Obama was famous for drone strikes on land,
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: blowing up people all over the place. Afghanistan or Iraq
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: where every hunundreds of hundreds, hundreds of drone strikes. Do
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: you know when they did the Osama bin Laden raid,
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: they were going to go into his house and get him.
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: You know, the actual orders from Obama were to shoot
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: him and kill him. And this was all discussed ahead
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: of time. Well, what if he surrenders. They were told
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: to shoot him and kill him. They were given the
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: order not to take them alive. Now, if he comes
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: out of his bedroom and you're there, you could say,
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: well I shot because I didn't he might have a
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: bomb on him. So it actually was discussed, what if
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: he comes out of his bedroom totally naked, We know
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: he can't possibly have a weapon or a bomb on him.
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: They were told to shoot him and kill him. They
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: were ordered not to take him alive. Now I imagine
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: the reason for that order is they didn't want to
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: get him alive and bring him back here because they'd
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: have to try him and that trial would have been
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: a security nightmare, all kinds of controversies. They were told,
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: and make sure you kill him no matter what. So
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: even if he's asleep and he doesn't wake up, you
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: got to shoot him. So but again, that's war. That's
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: what you do in a war. You shoot to kill
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: all the time. And even a police shooting a mob
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: hit whatever it is, you don't fire one bullet and say, well, huh,
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: the guy survived. How about that. No, you shoot a
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: bunch of shots and make sure they're dead. So this
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: war crime hoax, they'll try it for another couple of weeks.
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: It'll go nowhere. Then they'll give up. Big cabinet meeting
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: yesterday the CNN CNN if anybody still watches that, their
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: big thing was fact checking the cabinet meeting. The CNN
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: fact chucker checker. Trump told thirteen whoppers in the cabinet
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: unbelievable lies that he told. Let's see what the thirteen are.
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: He claimed that the tariffs have brought in eighteen trillion dollars.
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: All right, they're right about that. That's Trump. They brought
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: in like eight trillion. But you know Trump, if it's
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: eight trillion, I'll tell you it's eighteen trillion. If it
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: was eighteen trillion, he would have told you it was
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: thirty trillion. All right. They got him on that. But
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: he's right in what he's saying. He's absolutely correct. The
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: tariffs have brought in a fortune. He's exaggerating the number.
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: He claimed grocery prices are down. They're up two point
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: seven percent year over year. That's actually a bit of
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: a lie because their overall grocery prices are down. There
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: are certain things that have gone up, way up, and
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: that's brought the whole average up. But overall grocery prices
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: are down. So they're wrong about that one. Well, technically
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: they might be right, but they're misleading you. He claimed
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: these cutting prescription drug prices by five hundred to nine
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: hundred percent. These numbers make no mathematical sense. That be
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: below zero, it'd be like less than zero. Okay, they
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: got him on that, But he has brought the prices
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: of drugs down. He's exaggerating the number again, but that's him,
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: the salesman. He does that. He claimed every military attack
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: on the drug smuggling boat saves an average of twenty
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: five thousand lives. Experts say this number makes no sense. Well,
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: first of all, they're not you know, at CNN they
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: find the dumbest, worst, slanted or biased or totally fabricating accident.
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: Plenty of people's lives were saved by getting rid of
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: the fentanyl and the cocaine. Obviously, lives were saved blown
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: up these drug boats. Okay, it might not be twenty
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: five thousand. How would you know exactly how many lives
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: are saved per boat. But he's absolutely right, and he's saying,
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: you're just quibbling about the he's exaggerating numbers. Yeah, that
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: could be. Uh, what else, he has stopped inflation in
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: its tracks. Okay, there's still He has brought inflation down.
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: It was nine percent at one point under Biden, Biden's
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: average inflation for the four years five point two percent.
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: It's now three percent and dropping. So it clearly has
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: brought it down, stopped it dead in his tracks. Okay,
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: maybe that's too much. These are the whoppers, the claiming
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: he told He claimed he inherit the worst inflation of
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: all time. All right, it was horrifying under Biden nine percent,
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: horrifying number, horrifying. But they're arguing there that's not the
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: old time high. It was higher somewhere in the history
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: of a marriage. Okay, that could be, but he's still
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: right about what he's saying. He's gotten it right. You're
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: just talking about exaggeration, he claimed the end of eight wars. Well,
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: the list includes two wars that weren't actually wars. Listen,
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: he's great at ending these wars. He can't argue they
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: go on and on. It's basically all the same thing. Uh,
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: let's see, Yeah, they're all the same thing. He's absolutely
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: right everything he's saying. He's just if you wanted to
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: argue that he's exaggerating, yeah, you could, of course he is. Yesterday, Mom,
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: Donnie met with Eric Adams. They at a big meeting
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: at City Hall. These two guys can't stand each other. Uh,
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: it was sort of cordial. Mom Donnie was trying. You know.
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: I give him credit this, Mom Donnie. He always tries
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: to say something nice. He tries to be positive. He
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: meets with Trump, it's very positive. He can't stand at him.
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: They don't get along, but he leaves and tries to
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: praise him somehow.
• 45:17
  Speaker 12: I've appreciated the mayor's work on city Yes, I also
• 45:19
  Speaker 12: think that trash containerization has been a good step forward
• 45:22
  Speaker 12: in the way in which we handle garbage across the city.
• 45:24
  Speaker 12: And these are things that I deserve. That new Yorkers
• 45:27
  Speaker 12: deserve to have be built on as opposed to be discarded.
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: Okay, the guy's mayor of New York for four years?
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: Four years? What can you praise him onnd I got
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: to come up with something he did rail four years?
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: What did he do? Rep Ah, the trash containerization? What
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: the That's where they put the new trash can with
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: a lid that closes. This is what he did with
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: trash cans have lids that closes. They say the number
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: of rats are down because it's in the airtight trash
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: contaentl Okay, that's very good. But if this is your
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: main accomplishment of four years, not good, how do you
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: go in there?
• 46:00
  Speaker 4: Oh?
• 46:00
  Speaker 12: I appreciated the conversation that I had with Mayor Adams
• 46:04
  Speaker 12: and his team, and we focused on how to make
• 46:06
  Speaker 12: this as smooth as possible of a transition and how
• 46:09
  Speaker 12: to continue to serve New Yorkers. You're right, Look, I
• 46:11
  Speaker 12: think it is possible to be fair and honest in
• 46:15
  Speaker 12: your assessment of an administration. I've obviously made my critiques clear.
• 46:18
  Speaker 12: I also think that there are good things that this
• 46:20
  Speaker 12: administration has done. I think these are the two examples
• 46:22
  Speaker 12: on City of Yes and containerization. And I also have
• 46:25
  Speaker 12: appreciated the work the Commissioner Tish has done in reducing
• 46:28
  Speaker 12: crime across the five boroughs, and that's a critical part
• 46:30
  Speaker 12: of why I decided to retain it.
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: Oh, there you go. So when you think back on
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: Adams and his legacy, it's that trash can containerization.
• 46:39
  Speaker 4: There you go.
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: What a program the City of Yes, what is that?
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: I don't know, some program you did. Hey, here's the
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: big question. Does Mom Donnie move into Gracie Mansion? You
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: don't have to, you know, Bloomberg didn't. Of course. Now
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: in the case of Bloomberg, he has two massive town
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: houses cut together to become one enormous town has. Gracie
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: Mansion looks like a ghetto apartment, looks like a housing
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: project apartment compared to his house. So he never left
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: his house. He stayed in his house. And Ed Koch
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: had a really nice apartment in Greenwich Village. He would
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: go back there every weekend. He'd like to stay there.
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: So Mom Donnie lives in Brooklyn in an apartment. No,
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: not for I think he lives in Long Island City
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: or a story of somewhere like the Queen's. But will
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: he move into Gracie Mansion.
• 47:26
  Speaker 12: That's the decision I haven't yet made. The meeting came
• 47:28
  Speaker 12: about as just part of a typical transition, a transition
• 47:32
  Speaker 12: where we're looking to have a conversation with the current
• 47:34
  Speaker 12: mayor about what it looks like to have a smooth
• 47:36
  Speaker 12: transfer between this administration and the next administration. I've appreciated
• 47:39
  Speaker 12: the work of his staff and ensuring that it continues
• 47:41
  Speaker 12: to be smooth.
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: So yeah, he said he has thought of staying in
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: his apartment. He has a massive security detail now as
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: the incoming mayor, a full security detail. But they're saying
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: you can't live in the apartment anymore because it's in
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: an apartment building. It'd be too hard to guard you
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: in that apartment building, and if we could, it'd be
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: totally disruptive to everybody else coming and going out of
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: that building. So he's probably gonna have to leave and
• 48:09
  Speaker 2: go to Gracie Mansion. Hey, you know what was the
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: most interesting thing. This was not at this press conference,
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: but last night he goes on New York One on
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: that Errol Lewis show. Errol lewis very nice guy, the
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: most slanted biased media person in the world, but a
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: nice guy, and he said something interesting on that show.
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: But because it's New York, one three people saw it,
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: so you probably never heard about this. This is why
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: you never don't hear about this. He revealed on the
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: show that he and Trump still talk after that meeting
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: at the White House. They've spoken to each other on
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: the phone a few times. They kept in touch. It's fascinating.
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: In fact, after the shooting of the National Guards woman mom,
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: Donnie said he called Trump to express his sympathies for
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: that woman, and they had talked about He said, they've
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: talked a few times. Very interesting stuff. Hey, in New Jersey,
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: you know McGreevy, remember Governor McGreevy, a nice guy, left
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: in a bit of a scandal. But he lost last
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: night to this guy Solomon. So McGreevy, like Cuomo, thought
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: he could make some qut of comeback, but apparently not.
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: He lost and he you know, that's the end of
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: him politically. I want to say from my heart, I
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: congratulate councilmen now Mayor elect James Solomon.
• 49:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: Mcgreevy's a good guy, but you know it's it's the
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: wrong kind of Democrat. The Democrats if today hate the
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: old establishment democrats. Uh, they like these Trump haters. This
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: Solomon kind of the mission is clear.
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: The work begins tonight, and the work and we have
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: to do is make Jersey City affordable.
• 49:47
  Speaker 13: And so I say tonight.
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: So that's how this guy won. If you're today's Democrat,
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: just yell affordability, affordability, afford to building. Nobody knows what
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: that all. It means, afford to building. First of it's
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: Jersey City. It's all Wall Street, hedge fund pee.
• 50:01
  Speaker 4: Yah.
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: Certain places they are always going to be expensive. You know,
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: if you move to Beverly Hills, it's not that affordable.
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: So if you go to the wealthiest place in the
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: world in the middle of Manhattan, the Upper East Side,
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: it's very expensive. So you can go there and yell
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: about affordability. But there's going to be places that are expensive.
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: So hey, tonight the tree lighting. It's the Christmas season.
• 50:21
  Speaker 2: If you're looking for Christmas gifts books, it's a good idea.

  Speaker 2: is a riveting book about what the family went through. Hey,
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: we'll take some calls next. Eight hundred three to two
• 51:33
  Speaker 2: one zero seven ten is the number eight hundred three
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: two one zero seven ten.
• 51:39
  Speaker 6: His job, make it all makes sense.
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: He's marked the oone on sevent tenor.
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: Well, let's take some calls eight hundred three, two, one
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: zero seven ten is the number. Let's go to Jan
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: and Long Island.
• 51:56
  Speaker 5: Jan.
• 51:56
  Speaker 2: How you doing.
• 51:58
  Speaker 14: I'm doing fine. How are you doing?
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: Let me check? Not bad?
• 52:04
  Speaker 14: Okay.
• 52:04
  Speaker 15: I'm glad to hear it. Always said I'm calling because
• 52:07
  Speaker 15: Charlie Kirk wrote a book that was kind of I
• 52:10
  Speaker 15: think he called it the.
• 52:10
  Speaker 14: College Hoax or something like that. I actually had the
• 52:14
  Speaker 14: book and it was the first of its kind that
• 52:17
  Speaker 14: I ever saw, you know, and it was I think
• 52:20
  Speaker 14: it's only a couple of years old or something like that.
• 52:23
  Speaker 14: And all of a sudden, I'm hearing on a couple
• 52:26
  Speaker 14: of different stations I listened to OR and ABC that
• 52:30
  Speaker 14: there's this other guy that's got an anti college book.
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: App well, psychologe. We've been doing that here for a
• 52:36
  Speaker 2: few years. It's just a lot of people don't need
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: to go to college. In fact, tech schools would be
• 52:41
  Speaker 2: a much better idea for a lot of kids. We've
• 52:44
  Speaker 2: had university professors tell us they agree that forty percent
• 52:47
  Speaker 2: of their students don't belong in some super ivy league
• 52:50
  Speaker 2: called go to a tech school, learn a real skill.
• 52:54
  Speaker 15: I've been hearing that on the radio, but this was
• 52:57
  Speaker 15: in a book by Charlie Kirk.
• 53:00
  Speaker 2: We got that part. But it's a good idea for
• 53:03
  Speaker 2: a lot of kids tech school. Hey, Also, you send
• 53:06
  Speaker 2: the kid to college for four years, it's going to
• 53:07
  Speaker 2: be a two hundred and fifty thousand. If you go
• 53:10
  Speaker 2: to tech school, it's like one tenth of that. Also,
• 53:12
  Speaker 2: you get out of college with your Ivy League philosophy degree,
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: and you're going to go back and live in your parents'
• 53:17
  Speaker 2: house for ten years. You get out of tech school,
• 53:20
  Speaker 2: they'll put you to work the next day. They'll get
• 53:21
  Speaker 2: your job right away. Let's go to Shannon in Belmore. Shannon,
• 53:26
  Speaker 2: how you doing.
• 53:28
  Speaker 16: Good morning, Mark. I wonder if you could tell me
• 53:31
  Speaker 16: what was behind Trump willing to release the Honduran drug lord.
• 53:38
  Speaker 16: I can't understand that.
• 53:40
  Speaker 2: Oh well, you're going to see a lot of He
• 53:41
  Speaker 2: just pardoned a little while ago a lawmaker in Texas
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: who was convicted of bribery. Sometimes he just thinks the
• 53:49
  Speaker 2: guy did enough punishment a part, But a lot of
• 53:53
  Speaker 2: times it's somebody a donor or a big member of
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: Congress who calls you and asks you for this as
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: a favor. So you know was involved, Yeah, not with Trump,
• 54:04
  Speaker 2: but it's a favor to somebody you need to do
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: a favor for. It's a good question. You know, there's
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: a guy in Long Island got convicted of uh, swindling people.
• 54:14
  Speaker 2: You know, you got, i know, some kind of financial
• 54:16
  Speaker 2: white collar crime. And the guy was a convicted sentenced
• 54:19
  Speaker 2: to prison. So Trump just pardoned him. Now, a lot
• 54:22
  Speaker 2: of times that's a favorite. You know, if you got
• 54:25
  Speaker 2: the right friends, you can get yourself a pardon. If
• 54:27
  Speaker 2: you're a major, major, major donor, you listen, I need
• 54:31
  Speaker 2: a favor. They'll look over the pardon and if it's uh,
• 54:36
  Speaker 2: if it's not too outrageous, they'll give it to you.
• 54:38
  Speaker 2: It's a favorite of the donor. But many, many times
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: it's a major figure in Congress or in government calls you.
• 54:45
  Speaker 2: You know, if a major congress has got somebody in
• 54:47
  Speaker 2: his district, that's usually the case. Somebody in the district
• 54:51
  Speaker 2: they need a pardon. And this happens with the Democrat
• 54:54
  Speaker 2: Republican presidents. Do I need to get this guy pardon?
• 54:57
  Speaker 5: Now?
• 54:58
  Speaker 2: They then weighed, how mu do I need this congressman? Yeah,
• 55:01
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna need him for about twenty different votes. I'm
• 55:03
  Speaker 2: gonna need his vote. So they'll do the favor for you.
• 55:06
  Speaker 2: It happens all the time. Now it's really outrageous. They'll
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: say they can't do it, but you know, the most
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: glaring example was Mark Rich, the financier who got caught
• 55:17
  Speaker 2: in all kinds of crime, and he's so bad that
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: he fled the country. There's no way he was gonna
• 55:21
  Speaker 2: even try to beat these charges. He fled. He went
• 55:23
  Speaker 2: to Switzerland and they were chasing him all over the world.
• 55:27
  Speaker 2: They tried to arrest him in Israel. They tried to
• 55:29
  Speaker 2: arrest him here, but they could. They're chasing this guy.
• 55:31
  Speaker 2: He's a fugitive on the lamb. But the Rich family
• 55:35
  Speaker 2: massive donors to the Clinton's massive donors, so they wanted
• 55:39
  Speaker 2: to her husband pardon and it was so outrageous. Clinton
• 55:43
  Speaker 2: waited till like his last day in office and then
• 55:45
  Speaker 2: did the When he did the Mark Rich pardon, somebody
• 55:48
  Speaker 2: in the Justice partment has to sign off. Everybody refused
• 55:51
  Speaker 2: to sign off. They finally found one guy who was
• 55:55
  Speaker 2: willing to sign that pardon. It was a junior guy
• 55:58
  Speaker 2: named Eric Holder, who was later rewarded with the Attorney General. Hey,
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: when we come back and culture will be with us
• 56:05
  Speaker 2: next lots to talk to her about coming up in
• 56:07
  Speaker 2: a moment on seven to ten WR.
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: Here's more of the Mark Simone Show on WR.
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: Well and Culture. The best selling author and the great
• 56:21
  Speaker 2: columnists also does a lot of speeches all over the country.
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: In fact, if you're in Massachusetts tomorrow night, she'll be
• 56:27
  Speaker 2: speaking at MIT of all places, six o'clock MIT, and
• 56:31
  Speaker 2: she's with us right now. And Culter, how you doing fantastic?
• 56:35
  Speaker 13: How are you Marximone?
• 56:37
  Speaker 2: Good? You know, I do a lot of speeches, but
• 56:38
  Speaker 2: it's always in some normal place. Mit. You got to
• 56:42
  Speaker 2: sound pretty smart there, I know.
• 56:45
  Speaker 13: I hope they don't ask me any math questions.
• 56:49
  Speaker 2: So that's pretty good. Now, all over America they got
• 56:55
  Speaker 2: and we heard this was going to happen. The Democrats
• 56:57
  Speaker 2: have like twenty five other mom Donnis, they're going to run.
• 57:00
  Speaker 2: They run this woman in Tennessee. It was another mom
• 57:03
  Speaker 2: Donnie no resume, history of saying crazy things but charming,
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: great on social media, an influencer. What is this? Who
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: are these Democrats voting for these people?
• 57:17
  Speaker 13: Well, luckily not enough to elect her. Your listeners, being
• 57:22
  Speaker 13: normal people, probably don't know this, but I bet you do.
• 57:26
  Speaker 13: All week on MSNBC, they've been pushing this progressive woman.
• 57:30
  Speaker 13: And you know this was going to be a test
• 57:32
  Speaker 13: for Trump, and here it was. It's in Tennessee represented
• 57:37
  Speaker 13: by a Republican. Now this is going to be big tests,
• 57:40
  Speaker 13: big test. You know, they don't set something up as
• 57:42
  Speaker 13: a big test unless they're expecting to win. So they
• 57:45
  Speaker 13: were pushing this woman like mad. And she lost last
• 57:49
  Speaker 13: night by ten points. So I was listening to the
• 57:51
  Speaker 13: coverage today and I don't know CNN or MSNBC. I
• 57:54
  Speaker 13: have a new definition of a close election. It's where
• 57:59
  Speaker 13: a Republican wins by ten points. But apparently that was
• 58:05
  Speaker 13: now a nail bider.
• 58:07
  Speaker 2: But what is this all about? Voting for people that
• 58:09
  Speaker 2: have no resume on paper? They stink. But they keep
• 58:12
  Speaker 2: yelling this word affordability and it sounds good. But if
• 58:17
  Speaker 2: you know, like in New York, Democrats have run every
• 58:20
  Speaker 2: inch of New York for fifteen years. If there's an
• 58:22
  Speaker 2: affordability crisis, why would you vote for them?
• 58:26
  Speaker 13: Yes, and unless it is Democrats with their idiotic laws
• 58:31
  Speaker 13: and regulations making things more expensive, as with run control,
• 58:36
  Speaker 13: as with Obamacare. Mostly what people are talking about, I mean,
• 58:41
  Speaker 13: I mean Trump is right. This is just a word
• 58:43
  Speaker 13: they use.
• 58:44
  Speaker 9: It's like for years.
• 58:46
  Speaker 13: I don't know, I had doubt politicians run on this anymore,
• 58:48
  Speaker 13: but years, for decades, every every single presidential candidate would
• 58:53
  Speaker 13: run on bringing people together. Okay, those are words, and
• 58:58
  Speaker 13: affordability is a word.
• 58:59
  Speaker 6: What you're talking about.
• 59:00
  Speaker 13: Is inflation or democratic policies. That's what makes things expensive.
• 59:05
  Speaker 13: I mean, as we've discussed, there's been no matter how
• 59:07
  Speaker 13: liberal the economist is, just economists after economists after economists
• 59:11
  Speaker 13: has pointed out, rent control goes into effect, housing prices
• 59:16
  Speaker 13: go through the roof. And every place there is rent control,
• 59:19
  Speaker 13: in New York City and San Francisco, in small burghs
• 59:23
  Speaker 13: throughout the nation, every place rank control is in effect,
• 59:27
  Speaker 13: the housing is out of reach for normal people. Thomas
• 59:30
  Speaker 13: Moll writes a lot about this. It's the most basic
• 59:34
  Speaker 13: economic principle. Restrict the supply prices go up. Yeah, they're
• 59:43
  Speaker 13: the ones. I mean. The healthcare thing just drives me
• 59:47
  Speaker 13: absolutely nuts. Yet everybody knew this. That's why every single
• 59:52
  Speaker 13: Republican voted against Obamacare. As I think I've said before,
• 59:55
  Speaker 13: when Republicans say we're going to fix something, we fix it,
• 59:57
  Speaker 13: and then we lose it as an issue to run on.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 13: When Democrats say they're going to fix something they got
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 13: an issue until the end of time is they just
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 13: make things worse.
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, like they go crazy about tariffs. Tariffs
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 2: are the worst thing. They hate tariffs, but then they
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 2: put on more tariffs than anybody. They call it a
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 2: corporate tax increase, but that's the same thing. It's a
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 2: teriff on of business.
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 13: So uh oh, that's a great point.
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 2: How do they get away with this? But well, I
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 2: know how there's no media to expose it. But it's
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 2: never going to change. So what does this mean for
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 2: the midterms?
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 13: Well, as I keep warning you, my friends, your listeners,
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 13: midterms generally go against the party in power, which is
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 13: why I don't know why the Trump administration hasn't done
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 13: this yet. I've surely talked about it on your program before.
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 13: So the census is taken in twenty twenty under Donald
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 13: Trump in twenty twenty one. The year after a census,
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 13: they always go back and check, do we make any mistakes?
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 13: Do we get this right? They do spot check that
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 13: sort of thing. Under the Biden administration they realized, oh
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 13: my gosh, we made a lot of mistakes, and they
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 13: ended up taking away I met about ten congressional seats
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 13: from Republicans and giving them to the Blue States. They
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 13: counted the Blue states as being much bigger and about
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 13: ten on each side, and Red states as being much smaller.
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 13: So I don't know Ron de Santis should sue. This
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 13: is the administration finding its own mistake. Why can't the
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 13: Trump administration say fix the mistake? I mean, that gives
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 13: us ten seats right there, and other than that, it's
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 13: probably going to be a blowout against us, especially looking
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 13: at what I didn't think. I didn't think there was
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 13: any way California could squeeze any more Democrat seats out
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 13: of that state, but apparently they have. So Democrats are
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 13: they have an auto pickup of five states in California.
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 13: And this isn't like some tricky, you know, jerrymandering trick.
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 13: It's just it's just following constitution and creating congressional districts
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 13: the way they are supposed to be created. So I
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 13: really think Trump has got to get on that.
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but again, you got this new breed of Democrats
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 2: no resume saying crazy things, but they just look good
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 2: on social media and they're great influencers. And are there
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 2: any Republicans who can counter that? Who can do the
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 2: same trick.
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 13: I hate to sound snobbish, but I think most Republican
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 13: voters are smarter. They really are Democrats. We deserve stupid
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 13: voters too. I mean, I don't know we're getting some now,
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 13: but but Democrats really have a lock on the stupid voters.
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 13: And I am not referring to, you know, young people.
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 13: I don't think it's just young people. A lot of
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 13: young people are are very thoughtful. But well, I guess
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 13: I am referring to my gender. A lot of especially women,
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 13: especially you know, identity politics types. They they they know nothing,
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 13: they think nothing, They go along with the crowd. Group
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 13: think is very powerful.
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So hey, the other issue, this war crimes hoax,
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 2: you know, is some terrible war crimes taking place?
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 12: Is this?
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 2: Well, Democrats get away with this defending these coke boats,
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 2: these narco boats.
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 13: Oh, I'm so glad you brought that up. I wanted
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 13: to make two points about that. One is it's funny
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 13: listening to liberal media. They're trying to get hag sas
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 13: to you know, quote take responsibility, as if as if
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 13: that's that's okay, and then we'll all go away. You
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 13: say you're responsible. The media plays this trick a million times.
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 13: I was just thinking of tweeting out hag sas do
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 13: not quote take responsibility. This is what they did to
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 13: rum Fells over Abu Grab. They run this campaign, you
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 13: just got to take response. Be a man here. They
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 13: did it with the first George bush On on you
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 13: gotta raise taxes and he broke his read mind lift pledge.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 13: And the final thing, second thing and only thinks is
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 13: probably running out of time, is I don't care what
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 13: they do to these Venezuelan boats. I mean, since the
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 13: end of Reagan. This is the first time in my
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 13: life the American military has been used to protect American lives,
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 13: not alives in the Middle East, not lives in Afghanistan,
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 13: not lives in the Balkans. For the first time the
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 13: military is being used to protect America. Though I don't
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 13: care what you do.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 2: That's a very good point, excellent point. Hey, So, if
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 2: you're in Massachusetts, we got a lot of listeners there
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 2: and culture is speaking tomorrow night at MIT. Aren't they
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 2: kind of left wing kooks there? How are you going
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 2: to speak to them?
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 13: Well, I'm hoping some of your listeners will come. You
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 13: sign up on Google it's linked on my Twitter feed,
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 13: and I happen to notice on the Google page they're
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 13: apparently not releasing the undisclosed location until I don't know
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 13: a few hours before this speech, but it obviously will
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 13: be near MIT, and I think all marks and my
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 13: own listeners should come so I could at least get
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 13: some some smart questions that don't involve math.
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 2: Well, it's a bunch of left wing cooks there at MIT,
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 2: but it's quite a beautiful.
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 13: Campus, and probably fewer left wing cooks because remember they
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 13: were the first college to well first get rid of
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 13: the SAT and then immediately bring it back.
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a beautiful campus and it's right on the
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 2: Charles River. You hat a beautiful view and you'll have
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 2: a good time there talking to those eggheads. But it's
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 2: a great unit. It's on one of our great universities.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 2: So tomorrow, yeah and Culter at MIT six o'clock. Just
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 2: go to her Twitter. You can get the place to
• 1:05:44

  Speaker 2: Care, Hey, don't forget tonight. You got Buck and Clay
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 2: coming up at noon today. We don't forget tonight. Every
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 2: night excellent news show, Jimmy Fayla. It's fascinating, it's funny.
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 2: It's a very entertaining show nine to midnight every night
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 2: on seven to ten WOR.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: Give WR A bri said on the iHeartRadio app to
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: hear Mark Simone and all the WOR hosts in an instance.
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 1: Now back to the Marximo Show on WR.
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 2: You know that crazy Olivia Nuzzy, the one writing the book.
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 2: She was that reporter got involved with RFK Junior. Claimed
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 2: they were texting and sexting back and forth and then
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 2: apparently carrying on with some other people here and there.
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 2: So she wrote a book, big Exposation's going to take
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 2: down RFK Junior. You know she's the Vanity Fair writer.
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 2: She's going to expose. Oh, she's gonna tell the unbelievable book. Well,
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 2: it came out on Amazon. This is the first week.
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 2: It's a total disaster, a complete bomb. First week. You're
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 2: supposed to have your best week. It's in twelve thousandth place,
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 2: twelve thousand, one hundred something, twelve thousandth place on Amazon,
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 2: and you'll notice the fake news, the ms NOW, MSNBC.
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 2: They're not really giving her a lot of coverage. So
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 2: the book completely fizzled. Vanity Fair I think has gotten
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 2: rid of her, so you won't see much more of her.
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 2: That should be pretty much the end of her. Hey,
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: we're out of time. I'll be back tomorrow ten to noon.
• 1:07:30

• 1:07:40

  Speaker 2: it wherever you get your podcast. Hey, don't forget the
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 2: tree lighting Rockefeller Center. It's tonight at three o'clock. It's
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 2: a gridlock alert day today. And also remember that tree lighting.
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 2: It's TV at seven o'clock, but they start the whole
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 2: thing early, like three o'clock, four o'clock, So it's going
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 2: to be a traffic nightmare in Midtown because of that.
