Highlights of Curtis & Larry · Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning

0:00
Speaker 1: Well, we had a short respite after some severe weather.
0:04
Speaker 1: We're still recovering from that, and now the potential of
0:08
Speaker 1: another storm, heavy rain expected today, the possibility of thunderstorms.
0:14
Speaker 1: Let's take a deeper dive into all this with Jeff
0:17
Speaker 1: Maher seven to ten WR Weather Channel meteorologists. Let's start
0:22
Speaker 1: with Jeff, thanks a lot for doing this. By the way,
0:25
Speaker 1: when is it all expected to start? And then when
0:28
Speaker 1: will the worst.
0:28
Speaker 2: Of it be? Yeah, it's going to start as we
0:31
Speaker 2: head from the middle part of this morning to the
0:33
Speaker 2: early part of the afternoon. All Right, we're seeing a
0:35
Speaker 2: cluster of some thunderstorms moving out of eastern Pennsylvania in
0:38
Speaker 2: towards West Jersey. But heaviest rainfall will be as we
0:41
Speaker 2: head from this afternoon to the evening hours. That's why
0:44
Speaker 2: we had the flood wash through late tonight. And there
0:45
Speaker 2: is for severe weather from mid afternoon, probably about two
0:48
Speaker 2: or three o'clock untol body'clock this evening. That's when we
0:50
Speaker 2: could have some damaging wing gus, maybe some hail, possibly
0:53
Speaker 2: you in an isolated tornado.
0:55
Speaker 3: Now, Jeff, ask you a question.
0:57
Speaker 4: Our officials pretty much if they were doing the prediction
1:03
Speaker 4: market of where all the low lying areas are going
1:07
Speaker 4: to get cloud bird the way there's going to be
1:09
Speaker 4: because of this extreme weather flash flooding. Have they done
1:14
Speaker 4: anything in preparation because this is occurring more and more
1:18
Speaker 4: and more.
1:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, it seems to be for sure. And you know,
1:21
Speaker 2: we had record rainfall on Saturday obviously, and the ground
1:26
Speaker 2: was saturated, and now you know we have another round
1:29
Speaker 2: coming up today and it doesn't take a whole lot
1:31
Speaker 2: of heavier rain. Of course, we're talking about the city
1:33
Speaker 2: to cause some big flooding issues, and that's going to
1:35
Speaker 2: be the concern, not as much on your way in
1:37
Speaker 2: this morning, but for your way back home later this
1:40
Speaker 2: afternoon of the evening. That's we're going to be concerned about.
1:42
Speaker 2: That's what We'll have some heavy downpours and we could
1:45
Speaker 2: light up with us. We said one to two inches
1:47
Speaker 2: across the tri state area, maybe three to four inch
1:49
Speaker 2: tuttals though across parts of the city and in northern
1:52
Speaker 2: parts of Jersey and the Lower Hudson Valley.
1:54
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the possibility of three to four that's really
1:56
Speaker 1: scaring me. And how short of a time is that.
2:00
Speaker 1: And then we just went through this over the weekend
2:03
Speaker 1: and people were stuck on the roads and in deep
2:06
Speaker 1: water people had to pull over. Is it going to
2:09
Speaker 1: be that bad again today?
2:11
Speaker 2: It could be. It certainly could be as we head
2:13
Speaker 2: for the middle part of the afternoon three o'clock or
2:15
Speaker 2: so into the evening, and you know, now we're going
2:17
Speaker 2: to deal with that heavy rain threat. But we have
2:19
Speaker 2: a warm front that will be in the vicinity and
2:21
Speaker 2: that could cause some severe thuder storms. So we've got
2:23
Speaker 2: a coal front that's going to be closing in from
2:25
Speaker 2: tonight and tomorrow morning. So we'll have another round of
2:27
Speaker 2: rainfall and at the start of Wednesday before improving weather tomorrow.
2:30
Speaker 2: Afterning we'll start to see some sun breaking through and
2:32
Speaker 2: then we'll have a beautiful stretch of weather from Thursday
2:34
Speaker 2: into our weekend with a whole lot of sunshine and
2:36
Speaker 2: some comfortable temperatures. But we have to get past the
2:39
Speaker 2: bad weather today and into the evening before we see
2:41
Speaker 2: improvements later tomorrow.
2:43
Speaker 4: Now, obviously this sounds like another lemon to make lemonade
2:47
Speaker 4: out of it. Might this spur the growth and development
2:51
Speaker 4: and the artisans creating gondolas for people in these low
2:56
Speaker 4: lying areas.
2:57
Speaker 3: To Venus has learned with this they always underwater.
3:02
Speaker 4: Might this just be a precursor to some entrepreneurs out there. Hey,
3:08
Speaker 4: let's start creating gotten dolars because in a lot of
3:11
Speaker 4: these areas you're going to be underwater. We've seen people
3:14
Speaker 4: that basements get flooded time and time again, even sometimes
3:18
Speaker 4: up to the first floor. They don't clean out to
3:21
Speaker 4: catch basins, whether they're private, the city doesn't clean out,
3:24
Speaker 4: or the county, and it's just an endless cycle.
3:29
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's a lot to deal with. Obviously in
3:32
Speaker 2: the urban environment. You know that water has to go somewhere,
3:34
Speaker 2: and you mix in some clogged sewers and drains and
3:38
Speaker 2: those kind of things that could really cause some problems
3:40
Speaker 2: on the roadways. And hopefully we'll get through it okay
3:43
Speaker 2: as we head towards the evening, but you know, not
3:45
Speaker 2: only the heavy rain threat, by that severe weather threat
3:47
Speaker 2: looming as well. So we'll keep you updated here as
3:50
Speaker 2: we make our way towards the evening.
3:52
Speaker 1: All right, Jeff Maher w l R Weather Channel meteorologists,
3:56
Speaker 1: we hope to talk to you again during the show.
3:57
Speaker 1: Thanks for your time.
3:58
Speaker 2: You got to thank you.
4:00
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what, I.
4:00
Speaker 1: Never can understand the people that inevitably are going to
4:04
Speaker 1: get stuck on the road in deep water. Everybody knows
4:08
Speaker 1: where those spots are. Everybody knows people get stuck there.
4:12
Speaker 1: And yet somebody comes up to it and says, oh,
4:15
Speaker 1: I can make it. I can make it through, and
4:17
Speaker 1: then there there they have to be rescued a little
4:19
Speaker 1: bit later. Inevitably that's going to happen today.
4:21
Speaker 4: Well, if I could control a prediction market just for
4:25
Speaker 4: extreme weather. All of those roads in Westchester County, they
4:30
Speaker 4: lead to Connecticut and upstate, they always underwater, you know,
4:33
Speaker 4: right along the Bronx River. Oh my god, the Merrick parkways,
4:38
Speaker 4: so little sprints and they're underwater. You say to yourself,
4:41
Speaker 4: what have they done over the years to try to
4:45
Speaker 4: do something. I mean, you go to a place like Denmark,
4:50
Speaker 4: right they're underwaters. So they have all those dykes, you know,
4:53
Speaker 4: the little Dutch boy, you know, putting his finger in
4:55
Speaker 4: the dyke. I mean, we've learned them all that. We
4:57
Speaker 4: know down in New Orleans they have that. We never
5:01
Speaker 4: seem to get to that point of building these protective
5:05
Speaker 4: devices to keep these low lying areas out of harm's way.
5:09
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just money. It's exactly that. You'd think it
5:13
Speaker 1: would be important enough. But you know, you talked about
5:15
Speaker 1: Westchester County, New Jersey has a similar problem. If you
5:19
Speaker 1: remember the storm that was over the weekend, that one
5:22
Speaker 1: guy that decided he was going to try to make
5:24
Speaker 1: it through it was like a lake. It was under
5:27
Speaker 1: a train overpass. He got stuck and then he was
5:30
Speaker 1: sliding along the side of the wall trying to be rescued.
5:34
Speaker 1: I mean, look it. If you see water and you're
5:37
Speaker 1: questioning whether I should go or shouldn't go, don't.
5:40
Speaker 5: Just don't, definitely don't. There's that phrase turn around, don't drown.
5:45
Speaker 5: There you go, turn around, don't drown. Just keep that
5:47
Speaker 5: in your head when you see it, because I know
5:50
Speaker 5: everybody has that.
5:52
Speaker 3: I could do it.
5:52
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've done it before. That's the other thing, because
5:55
Speaker 1: one time they made it, and so they try to
5:57
Speaker 1: make it again.
5:58
Speaker 4: But inevitably you invested in this big monster truck of
6:02
Speaker 4: vote yours, four wheel dry built for these moments. You
6:06
Speaker 4: go in there and the next thing you need a
6:08
Speaker 4: fire engine then come to your rescue time and time again.
6:11
Speaker 4: On the BQUE on Saturday, That's what was happening, but
6:14
Speaker 4: it was happening all throughout the Tri state area.
6:17
Speaker 3: I am looking forward though to the ring.
6:19
Speaker 4: And I'll tell you why not, because I want to
6:21
Speaker 4: see harm come to our many neighbors, because we know,
6:25
Speaker 4: unfortunately it is we almost We can see people already
6:29
Speaker 4: taking all their items out of their basements and putting
6:33
Speaker 4: it on the curb to be picked up and taken
6:35
Speaker 4: to the landfill. But I took that number two train
6:39
Speaker 4: the Beast down a forty second street Times Square in
6:42
Speaker 4: order to walk up here to do our show this
6:44
Speaker 4: morning for the purpose of seeing what would happen one
6:49
Speaker 4: day after World Cup. Now remember you, Larry, yesterday had
6:53
Speaker 4: to negotiate your way through celebrating fans of Spain that
6:58
Speaker 4: won the World Cup. Was watching spang fans being arrested
7:05
Speaker 4: on forty second Street and Eighth Avenue for unruly behavior.
7:09
Speaker 3: All that was.
7:10
Speaker 4: Going on, it's eying. I want to get out. I
7:13
Speaker 4: want to walk to Times Square. I want to get
7:15
Speaker 4: a sense of who remains. And as I emerged, I
7:19
Speaker 4: gotta tell you it was four o'clock in the morning
7:21
Speaker 4: and I felt I was like I was Travis Pickel
7:24
Speaker 4: from taxi driver, remember that opening scene. Thank God for
7:27
Speaker 4: the rain to wash the trash off the sidewalk and
7:31
Speaker 4: make the flotsam and jetsam disappear. Really is garbage everywhere,
7:35
Speaker 4: and this is always the case, even after World Cup.
7:38
Speaker 4: You would think they get the clean up coups out
7:40
Speaker 4: the groups out there like at four in the morning
7:42
Speaker 4: when people aren't going to work.
7:44
Speaker 3: And have it.
7:46
Speaker 4: Spick and spanned up. That's an old phrase, speaking span
7:49
Speaker 4: speaking spanned up. You know power hooses everything clean for
7:52
Speaker 4: working day.
7:53
Speaker 3: They never do that.
7:54
Speaker 4: But who did I run across Notts fans from Spain?
7:59
Speaker 3: They must still all gone home.
8:01
Speaker 4: They had their parade yesterday in Madrid, you know their
8:03
Speaker 4: celebration the Argentines. You know, I'm telling you, I'm really
8:08
Speaker 4: starting to dislike the argent.
8:11
Speaker 1: Well, they were jerks on the field, they're probably jerks
8:13
Speaker 1: off the.
8:14
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got it, let me tell you.
8:15
Speaker 4: And now I'm going to give Andrew Giuliani a colliflower
8:19
Speaker 4: elin on this. He's he's already taking victory laps on
8:22
Speaker 4: behalf of President Trump. And you know Trump had appointed
8:25
Speaker 4: him the American to work with FIFA to organize all
8:29
Speaker 4: the matches all over the UN.
8:31
Speaker 1: That's interject that he's coming up at a twenty five.
8:33
Speaker 3: That is correct. I'm going to not a twenty five.
8:35
Speaker 3: He's coming up at.
8:36
Speaker 5: Seven thirty five.
8:38
Speaker 4: I'm gonna be I'm going to five right, I'm going
8:42
Speaker 4: to be giving him a cauliflower ear. Because these Argentines
8:45
Speaker 4: were in Times Square and they're looking for a shot
8:49
Speaker 4: a leg at least that was what they were signaling
8:52
Speaker 4: to me. And they wanted reefer marijuana. And I told him, look,
8:59
Speaker 4: get out of my shity, do your last tango here
9:02
Speaker 4: right here in Duffy Square and go back to witness
9:05
Speaker 4: rics please. Now, I don't know if they understood me
9:07
Speaker 4: because they were mostly speaking Spanish, but they are belligerent,
9:11
Speaker 4: they are nasty, and I want Andrew Giuliani to get
9:16
Speaker 4: in touch with the Department of Homeland Security Director now Mowen,
9:21
Speaker 4: And if they haven't left by the end of the
9:23
Speaker 4: workday today, hey get a retainer right from I support
9:28
Speaker 4: these guys from doubt. They don't want to make my
9:31
Speaker 4: country anymore.
9:32
Speaker 3: My god, you know.
9:34
Speaker 1: Why the Spaniards wanted to get back because a huge
9:36
Speaker 1: celebration right now. They want to get back to their celebration, Argentinan's.
9:41
Speaker 3: And also no more of them wanted to get arrested.
9:44
Speaker 4: I mean, Natalie was an eyewitness to that and then
9:47
Speaker 4: we're going to have the return of the Bacchi playing
9:51
Speaker 4: Joe Bartlet. And yes, we're going to discuss something that
9:55
Speaker 4: had bothered me for thirty years, and I know it
9:57
Speaker 4: bothered him. The thirtieth anniversary of tea Wa Flight eight hundred. Now,
10:02
Speaker 4: Joe will be joining us at eight at.
10:05
Speaker 3: Eight thirty five. He's been on this. I've been on this.
10:08
Speaker 4: I actually caught poison Oak and poison Ivy the double
10:13
Speaker 4: because I was out in the area, that rustic area
10:17
Speaker 4: of the East Mauritius where the TWA flight eight hundred
10:21
Speaker 4: one down. Now, apparently through a release of public information,
10:26
Speaker 4: finally there were faxes coming in from Cairo two days
10:31
Speaker 4: later that alleged that it was Muslim terrorist groups that
10:35
Speaker 4: took down that flight. Wow, and that was during the
10:38
Speaker 4: heyday of the Muslim Brothers. Sure, so I think this
10:43
Speaker 4: really needs a revisit because a lot was said about
10:47
Speaker 4: it at the time. It was never resolved. It's never
10:49
Speaker 4: been resolved for me and I know for Joe Bartlett.
10:52
Speaker 4: And we welcome him back from the Bachi Court in
10:54
Speaker 4: South Carolina. And you're going to give us an update
10:57
Speaker 4: in a nine o'clock How many people have fled our
10:59
Speaker 4: area like Joe Wow exactly and is perfectly imperfect. Curtis
11:04
Speaker 4: Leewa and Larry Minty in the Morning guaranteed human on seventenor.
11:11
Speaker 1: It was July seventeenth, nineteen ninety six when a TWA
11:16
Speaker 1: flight eight hundred leaving JFK Airport at eight nineteen at
11:20
Speaker 1: night bound for Paris blew up just twelve miles away
11:26
Speaker 1: from JFK Airport, and it was deemed an accident. The
11:31
Speaker 1: center fuel tank blew after coming a loose electrical wire
11:36
Speaker 1: and made it blow up. But there's a lot of
11:37
Speaker 1: people that never bought into that, and now we see
11:40
Speaker 1: some because of Judicial Watch, some documents, some federal documents
11:46
Speaker 1: saying that Egypt said that they did it. They were
11:49
Speaker 1: people in Egypt that just said they sent him missile
11:51
Speaker 1: up and hit it. Joe Bartlett has been covering this
11:56
Speaker 1: story for a long time. He is the former news director.
11:59
Speaker 1: Now we want to bring them in on this conversation. Joe,
12:04
Speaker 1: what do you think of the newest revelations and what
12:07
Speaker 1: they found with the documents, the federal documents.
12:12
Speaker 6: Well, I think it's interesting. I don't think there's any
12:14
Speaker 6: definite connection, but in my opinion. There is no doubt
12:18
Speaker 6: that this was not a center fuel tank explosion. It
12:22
Speaker 6: absolutely was not. The thing that struck me right away
12:27
Speaker 6: is that the initial investigation was done by the FBI.
12:31
Speaker 6: The FBI came in and took control of this investigation.
12:34
Speaker 6: This is a plane crash, and ordinarily that is an
12:38
Speaker 6: investigation that's done by the National Transportation Safety Board. So
12:42
Speaker 6: you've become suspicious right away, right away. And then the
12:46
Speaker 6: more you hear about it, the more you got to say,
12:49
Speaker 6: they're covering something up. And how do you I mean,
12:53
Speaker 6: I can go on for days, Larry talking about this.
12:57
Speaker 6: I know Curtis is on my side here, but there's
13:00
Speaker 6: it's indisputable. There's hundreds and hundreds of people who testified
13:05
Speaker 6: seeing contrails going from the ground up toward the plane.
13:10
Speaker 6: There's a pilot who saw that missile go up and
13:15
Speaker 6: go right toward the plane and blow it up. That's
13:18
Speaker 6: what happened. Why they don't want to admit that, I
13:21
Speaker 6: don't know.
13:22
Speaker 4: You remember, Michelle, because you were covering it day after day.
13:26
Speaker 4: There was Governor Pataki at that time, Al Demotto, the Senator,
13:31
Speaker 4: and the head of the FBI from the New York
13:35
Speaker 4: Division fourteen months, as you mentioned, of that FBI joined
13:39
Speaker 4: Terrorism Task Force, they put the whole jet back together.
13:43
Speaker 4: It all fell into the ocean, almost piece by piece,
13:46
Speaker 4: and yet they never satisfied all of us who just
13:51
Speaker 4: never accepted, as you said, that there was an explosion
13:55
Speaker 4: of the center wing fuel tank and there was some
13:59
Speaker 4: spark who was short circuit, even though that had never
14:02
Speaker 4: ever ever been a problem in any other seven Thoms,
14:05
Speaker 4: and they.
14:06
Speaker 6: Couldn't They can't replicate it. They cannot replicate it because
14:09
Speaker 6: there's not enough voltage to create a spark in that
14:12
Speaker 6: center fuel tank.
14:14
Speaker 3: Yeah.
14:14
Speaker 1: The fact that there are now documents that they had
14:17
Speaker 1: held for this long saying where Egypt claimed responsibility and
14:22
Speaker 1: they said they looked into it and couldn't verify it,
14:25
Speaker 1: brings some new light to this and should should launch
14:28
Speaker 1: a new investigation. I would think, I.
14:30
Speaker 6: Would think, Curtis, you remember Jim Cawstrom. He was ahead
14:33
Speaker 6: of the FBI at the time, right, Yes, Yeah, he
14:36
Speaker 6: initially I think there's a quote of him saying that
14:39
Speaker 6: they do suspect terrorism, and then all of a sudden
14:42
Speaker 6: he changed his tune and he almost became like a hostage,
14:46
Speaker 6: like he really didn't believe what he was saying, but
14:49
Speaker 6: he had to say it for some reason. It's a
14:53
Speaker 6: clear case of this plane being shot out of the sky.
14:57
Speaker 6: Why cover it up? That's that's where I'm at now,
15:00
Speaker 6: why did we cover this up? Was it Egypt? Was
15:04
Speaker 6: it a terror group? I don't know. And this is
15:08
Speaker 6: pre nine to eleven, so we didn't even have the
15:10
Speaker 6: whole security or the fear of terrorism that we that
15:16
Speaker 6: existed after nine eleven.
15:17
Speaker 1: Now they correct myself for one second. It's not the
15:20
Speaker 1: country of Egypt or the government of Egypt. It was
15:22
Speaker 1: a militant organization based in Egypt to claim responsibility.
15:27
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that time, at that time Larry and Joe
15:30
Speaker 4: Bartlett was the hotbed of the Muslim Brotherhood hotbed I
15:34
Speaker 4: mean they were attempting basically to take over the country.
15:38
Speaker 4: But let me flip to another subject. You're down in
15:40
Speaker 4: South Carolina. Now, you've retired like so many others from
15:44
Speaker 4: our region. In fact, later on Larry's going to talk
15:47
Speaker 4: about how much flight has been taking place outside of
15:50
Speaker 4: this area.
15:52
Speaker 3: But as you play your.
15:53
Speaker 4: Botchi games, I'm sure you come across a lot of
15:55
Speaker 4: veterans because South Carolina and per person, per capita, has
16:00
Speaker 4: more veterans who lived there, men and women who've served,
16:03
Speaker 4: men and women who've retired. What's the general feeling in
16:06
Speaker 4: your state now about this war in Iran?
16:11
Speaker 6: Well, I think you know from what I hear, we're stuck.
16:15
Speaker 6: It's a war of choice. I think it was an
16:18
Speaker 6: unwise choice, and we know whose choice it was. I
16:22
Speaker 6: guess the question is how do you get out of it?
16:25
Speaker 6: And you want to be patriotic, you want to support
16:29
Speaker 6: your country, but you know it's a mistake, and I
16:35
Speaker 6: guess the question is how do you get out of it?
16:39
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a tremendous question. I would imagine that you
16:42
Speaker 1: have a lot of friends that are New Yorkers down there,
16:45
Speaker 1: because I just looked at all of the migration figures
16:49
Speaker 1: for the last few years in South Carolina is the
16:53
Speaker 1: number three location for New Yorkers, from people from Massachusetts,
16:58
Speaker 1: from New Jersey, and even California coming to South Carolina.
17:02
Speaker 1: So are there a lot of transplants living down there
17:04
Speaker 1: with you?
17:05
Speaker 6: Absolutely? Everybody. The first question you asked somebody is where
17:08
Speaker 6: you're from? Really, I haven't. Well, you know, this is
17:18
Speaker 6: kind of a resort community, so there's a lot of visitors,
17:22
Speaker 6: but the most everybody, Almost everybody that I've encountered is
17:26
Speaker 6: from somewhere else.
17:27
Speaker 4: Now, Joe Bartlett, In places like where you've settled, a
17:31
Speaker 4: lot of folks think that Olive Garden is an Italian restaurant,
17:38
Speaker 4: and Olive Garden has this unique policy they've just imposed.
17:43
Speaker 3: We don't do it. When it comes to voting.
17:44
Speaker 4: You got to show a government ID with a photo
17:48
Speaker 4: on it. But if you want to take advantage of
17:50
Speaker 4: all the pasta you can eat, I'm sure with the
17:54
Speaker 4: free replenishment of the bread steaks, you now have to
17:59
Speaker 4: have one of their own ID cards with your photo
18:03
Speaker 4: on it, so you don't just lend it to other
18:05
Speaker 4: family members and friends.
18:07
Speaker 6: Hey, you got to control cost, Curtis one way or
18:10
Speaker 6: the other, I guess, but I will say where I live,
18:13
Speaker 6: there are no Olive Gardens. We do live relatively close
18:18
Speaker 6: to a BUCkies, though, have you ever had buddy jealous?
18:22
Speaker 5: I've been wanting to try a Bucky?
18:24
Speaker 3: What is BUCkies?
18:25
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, it's the thing these days.
18:27
Speaker 6: It's a rest stop. It's a humongous rest stop. The
18:33
Speaker 6: claim to fame was that the guys who started it
18:35
Speaker 6: wanted to have clean bathrooms. Promise you that the bathroom
18:38
Speaker 6: you're gonna use is absolutely clean, and they are spick
18:40
Speaker 6: and span. But it's expanded to food, merchandise, clothing. People
18:46
Speaker 6: are buying. They stop at a BUCkies and they're shopping
18:49
Speaker 6: as if they went to Walmart.
18:50
Speaker 5: Yeah, and they're buying merch They're coming home with Bucky's shirt.
18:53
Speaker 5: I'm surprised you haven't heard that because you have a
18:55
Speaker 5: son who goes to school down south. Yeah, and every
18:59
Speaker 5: friend I know who who has a kid who has
19:01
Speaker 5: a southern school BUCkies is it?
19:04
Speaker 1: It's funny because we've driven all around Elon in North
19:07
Speaker 1: Carolina and I haven't seen a BUCkies. I haven't seen
19:10
Speaker 1: one yet. Now I'm gonna be looking for them. Hey,
19:12
Speaker 1: is it all Lindsey Graham coverage down there all the time?
19:16
Speaker 1: And how do you feel about Darlene is possibly your
19:19
Speaker 1: next senator?
19:21
Speaker 6: I don't know. You know, I was not really a
19:25
Speaker 6: Lindsay Graham fan anymore. He kind of, you know, he
19:28
Speaker 6: warped like your buddy Trump, So I you know, I'm
19:31
Speaker 6: kind of off him, sad that he that he passed away.
19:33
Speaker 6: Kind of an interesting guy, but I don't know. I
19:37
Speaker 6: think it's going to be wide open. She's gonna have
19:41
Speaker 6: to run again. And she's not really political too. As
19:45
Speaker 6: I looked into her background and she helped people with disabilities,
19:50
Speaker 6: which is, you know, great, But I don't know that
19:52
Speaker 6: debt qualifies her to be the senator.
19:55
Speaker 3: Can let me take you back to BUCkies?
19:57
Speaker 4: Because I'm always on a search for a clean bathroom.
20:03
Speaker 4: I can never find it at all those rest locations restaurants.
20:07
Speaker 3: Did they actually deliver on that I've been calling? Joe
20:10
Speaker 3: Bart tell the truth?
20:12
Speaker 6: Absolutely, they are spick and span. They are cleaned almost continuously,
20:17
Speaker 6: and that that's the promise he stopping the BUCkies. The
20:20
Speaker 6: restroom will be clean. They are.
20:22
Speaker 3: I got franchise it up here. Please the turlet's here.
20:29
Speaker 1: Hey, Joe, I know you have a you have a
20:31
Speaker 1: whole lot of fans listening, and so how are you doing?
20:35
Speaker 1: Are you happy? Do you miss the game at all?
20:37
Speaker 3: Would you like to get back in it sometime?
20:40
Speaker 6: I you know, I enjoy these little conversations we have.
20:43
Speaker 6: What I don't miss is having you get up at
20:46
Speaker 6: three o'clock in the morning and doing this day after
20:49
Speaker 6: day after day. Because right now I live in a
20:53
Speaker 6: beautiful place. The weather's almost always nice, and when I
20:57
Speaker 6: wake up, the whole day is mine. I don't a
21:00
Speaker 6: thing to anybody.
21:01
Speaker 1: Else, So it's wonderful. And the Bachi ball game's going well.
21:06
Speaker 6: Bochi were this is in between seasons. It's working on
21:10
Speaker 6: my golf steam right now.
21:13
Speaker 4: Well, do appreciate it. Joe, You're welcome anytime. You're the
21:16
Speaker 4: iconic figure here at WR.
21:19
Speaker 6: All right, take care, guys.
21:20
Speaker 3: Thanks a lot, Joel, he's out in courteous and Larry
21:23
Speaker 3: Minty in the morning on the Boys of New York.
21:29
Speaker 1: Well Zur and Mamdani, the mayor of New York City,
21:31
Speaker 1: is making national and international news because of a podcast
21:36
Speaker 1: he was on over the weekend. You'll remember during the
21:39
Speaker 1: campaign when he was running for mayor, he said he
21:42
Speaker 1: would have Benjamin Nett and Yahoo Prime Minister of Israel
21:47
Speaker 1: arrested if he ever came to this country because there
21:49
Speaker 1: are charges for crimes against humanity that have been filed
21:53
Speaker 1: by the Hague. Now we don't we're not part of
21:57
Speaker 1: the Hague, and we don't have to obey any of
22:01
Speaker 1: their arrest warrants or orders, so the chances are he
22:04
Speaker 1: would never be arrested in this country. But Mamdani at
22:08
Speaker 1: the time said because of the Hagues arrest warrant, that
22:12
Speaker 1: he would arrest him in New York City, and it
22:14
Speaker 1: turned out he never was able to. With international and
22:17
Speaker 1: local laws. It just is not at all possible, but
22:22
Speaker 1: he keeps saying it. He was asked in a podcast
22:24
Speaker 1: over the weekend if he would still do that because
22:28
Speaker 1: Benjamin Nettnyahoo is going to be here in early September
22:33
Speaker 1: for a General Assembly meeting of the UN he is
22:36
Speaker 1: scheduled to speak, and so Mamdani doubled down on it.
22:41
Speaker 1: He said, yes, we're looking into it, We're looking into
22:43
Speaker 1: the possibility of it, and of course that made national news.
22:47
Speaker 1: And then he was asked again by the New York
22:50
Speaker 1: Press Corps.
22:51
Speaker 7: When someone is charged with an international criminal court warrant,
22:53
Speaker 7: it's something that should be taken seriously, whether it's Benjamin Netanyaho,
22:56
Speaker 7: or it's Vladimir Putin or whomever else. What I've also
22:59
Speaker 7: made clear is that my administration will follow all applicable
23:03
Speaker 7: local loss.
23:04
Speaker 1: Well, Donald Trump has gone out and said, in no way,
23:07
Speaker 1: shape or form is that going to happen in this country.
23:10
Speaker 1: Benjamin Netna, who will not be arrested, Benjamin Netna, who
23:14
Speaker 1: responded and said that Zora and Mamdani should care more
23:19
Speaker 1: about the problems he created in New York City over
23:22
Speaker 1: his policies, and please leave international affairs and me alone.
23:27
Speaker 1: And Rabbi Steinmetz, who has a local, huge congregation, agrees
23:33
Speaker 1: with you, Curtis. He says he's just doing this to
23:37
Speaker 1: gin up his base.
23:38
Speaker 8: He's doing it purely for political theater. He's doing it
23:42
Speaker 8: because he's a demagogue. He knows that by demonizing Israel
23:48
Speaker 8: he can rile up his base. And unfortunately the side
23:52
Speaker 8: effect of that is that Jews in New York City
23:57
Speaker 8: feel the side effects of this Zionist baiting.
24:02
Speaker 4: Do you want to respond to the rabbi, Well, I'm
24:04
Speaker 4: glad he said anti Zionists because that's the language that
24:07
Speaker 4: Johan Mandami uses.
24:10
Speaker 3: Look, he has been very consistent, Admi. This is what
24:14
Speaker 3: I tell people. What do you do? I said?
24:16
Speaker 4: Has he done what he said he would do or
24:18
Speaker 4: tried to do what he said? What are you surprise?
24:20
Speaker 4: He won a Democratic primary against Andrew Cuomo, the former governor,
24:27
Speaker 4: when Andrel Coomo was at forty percent and Zoron Mandami
24:30
Speaker 4: was at one percent. He made that up in three
24:33
Speaker 4: months and then beat him handily, and he ran on
24:37
Speaker 4: that issue. He said, I believe if I am lucky
24:41
Speaker 4: enough to become mayor, because obviously at that time he
24:43
Speaker 4: had to win the Democratic primary, which he did, I
24:47
Speaker 4: would have him. I would tell my police commission to
24:50
Speaker 4: have him arrested if he set foot in New York City.
24:53
Speaker 4: Now Cuomo, on the other hand, played the opposite in
24:57
Speaker 4: which you had. Alan Dershowitz said, I have Andrew Cuomo
25:01
Speaker 4: on our legal team to defend bb neta yao if
25:06
Speaker 4: it ever got to that point in the heg or
25:08
Speaker 4: here in New York City, and Cuomo at that time, yeah, yeah, definitely.
25:12
Speaker 3: Later on he said not so hot on that.
25:15
Speaker 4: So he went on that issue believe it or not
25:19
Speaker 4: amongst Jews, who thirty percent voted for him, and discarded that.
25:25
Speaker 4: And now we've seen the recent national poll amongst Jewish folks,
25:30
Speaker 4: so it's not just New York City that more Jewish
25:33
Speaker 4: folks would support Johan Mandami, not for elective office, but
25:36
Speaker 4: support him over bb Netanyahu. Bb Netta Yaho's really been
25:42
Speaker 4: sort of in massive decline amongst Jews and Gentiles. In fact,
25:46
Speaker 4: they did a Pierce Morgan show yesterday they should hit
25:49
Speaker 4: today in which you had pro BB and anti BB
25:54
Speaker 4: folks on board. This particular issue never came up, but
25:57
Speaker 4: there was a panoply of other issues. Well, if you
26:01
Speaker 4: are to the left and you mentioned that you want
26:03
Speaker 4: to lock up BB, you want to send him the
26:05
Speaker 4: Devil's Island, you want to exile him in perpetuity, you get.
26:10
Speaker 3: To score points with your base.
26:11
Speaker 1: I get it, But I'll tell you what Conservatives and
26:13
Speaker 1: Republicans are constantly attacked for. You've heard the quote a
26:17
Speaker 1: million times, throwing red meat to the base and really
26:21
Speaker 1: promising things they can never do.
26:24
Speaker 3: That's what this is.
26:25
Speaker 2: Now.
26:25
Speaker 1: He is getting criticized by the right. I mean, he's
26:29
Speaker 1: a star of Fox News right now, in all of
26:31
Speaker 1: the conservative publications. He is a star right now because
26:35
Speaker 1: they think going after the Democratic Socialists nationally is a
26:40
Speaker 1: winner for them. And it seems to be working, by
26:43
Speaker 1: the way, from the polls. And it seems to be
26:45
Speaker 1: working because a lot of Democrats and a lot of
26:47
Speaker 1: Democratic celebrities are now saying that the lunatic left wing,
26:52
Speaker 1: the radical left wing of the Democrats is why they're
26:55
Speaker 1: thinking about voting Republican. So it may help him here.
27:00
Speaker 1: But he also seems to help the Republican Party every
27:03
Speaker 1: time he says something.
27:04
Speaker 3: Like that, Oh, there's no doubt, there's no doubt.
27:06
Speaker 4: But then again, let's go back to the map, the
27:10
Speaker 4: ethnic map, right, so he completely left off little Italy,
27:15
Speaker 4: He left off what I call little Dublin up in
27:17
Speaker 4: Woodlawn right before you hit the border with West Jesse.
27:20
Speaker 4: He left off other areas. Those areas did not vote
27:24
Speaker 4: for him. He purposely left them off. That was like
27:27
Speaker 4: an f you to them, again, playing to his constituency.
27:32
Speaker 3: This is what I would have suggested for a long time.
27:37
Speaker 4: The Sudan and Mauritania and they still may be involved,
27:40
Speaker 4: believed in slavery, and they would justify her to their
27:43
Speaker 4: churonic law predominantly Muslim country in Sudan and Mauritania, and
27:48
Speaker 4: they would have slaves. So my younger sister Maria, who
27:52
Speaker 4: Natalie knows very well, was involved in that effort. He
27:56
Speaker 4: went over there, you know, trying to free slaves. Imagine
27:59
Speaker 4: mind days waves. Yeah, and so when the leader of
28:03
Speaker 4: Sudan came over for that annual assembly gathering at the
28:08
Speaker 4: Permanent Mission of the Sudan, I and three others got
28:11
Speaker 4: arrested because we were going to place some under citizens
28:14
Speaker 4: or US Obviously we'd never be able to replace some
28:16
Speaker 4: under citizens arrest, but we got arrested, So I believe,
28:20
Speaker 4: you know, he's saying all of this. And when BB arrives,
28:24
Speaker 4: there'll be a number of Jewish groups that are sympathetic
28:27
Speaker 4: to him on the left who will engage in civil disobedience.
28:31
Speaker 4: They we'll get a mass because you know there are
28:33
Speaker 4: many of them, they'll get mass arrests. You know, he'll
28:36
Speaker 4: make his point, he'll continue to score points with his people.
28:39
Speaker 3: He doesn't really care.
28:40
Speaker 4: About people watch Fox News Channel or or anybody who's
28:43
Speaker 4: of a conservative evaluation.
28:45
Speaker 1: He should because he is going to be a poster
28:49
Speaker 1: boy for the DSA across the country. That's why FI
28:52
Speaker 1: they don't do it for him. They don't do it
28:54
Speaker 1: for New York City, they do it for across the country.
28:56
Speaker 1: He is the scary man. They put him up there
28:59
Speaker 1: to say, this is what's going to happen to the
29:01
Speaker 1: country if you elect Democrats. And by the way, we
29:05
Speaker 1: never covered the DSA convention and what their platform is.
29:09
Speaker 1: We should spend some time talking about that another time
29:12
Speaker 1: because it's scary.
29:13
Speaker 4: But isn't it interesting that he and Trump have so
29:15
Speaker 4: much in common because the Democrats have Donald Trump as
29:19
Speaker 4: the boogeyman. You know, this is what's aggravated them to
29:22
Speaker 4: get him out to vote. And both of them operate
29:25
Speaker 4: under similar principles. With Maga, you gotta be Maga for
29:29
Speaker 4: the president. Even if you've been a loyal Republican who's
29:32
Speaker 4: not Maga, He'll choose Maga over you. Likewise, we've seen
29:36
Speaker 4: with Zron Mondami, he shook hands with moderate Democrats who
29:41
Speaker 4: endorsed them during the primary process against Andrew Cuomo. Espayyad,
29:46
Speaker 4: who's going to be in the Dominican parade. I'll see
29:48
Speaker 4: him on Sunday, you know it's up in the Bronx.
29:51
Speaker 4: He shook his hand.
29:52
Speaker 3: It was a quick pro quole.
29:54
Speaker 4: Look, I'm bucking voting for Cuomo and supporting him. I'm
29:59
Speaker 4: taking a chance. He is Zoran supporting you. You know
30:02
Speaker 4: you're not big in our community. Now many people know it,
30:04
Speaker 4: this is the primary, and he said, yeah, I'll endorse you.
30:07
Speaker 3: He went back on that.
30:08
Speaker 4: So basically with Zora Mandami, now you're not DSA, I
30:13
Speaker 4: don't endorse you. So you have the poster a child.
30:16
Speaker 4: I agree with you for the Republicans is Zora Mondamia
30:19
Speaker 4: New York City DSA, and the poster child for the
30:23
Speaker 4: Democrats is Donald Trump.
30:25
Speaker 3: And obviously hate drives of vote. We know that love.
30:28
Speaker 3: People don't come out of they love you, it's all.
30:31
Speaker 4: It's like we saw with Biden and Trump in twenty twenty,
30:35
Speaker 4: you had both sides just hateing each other.
30:38
Speaker 3: Now just drove out an.
30:40
Speaker 1: Unprecedented It's an old political adage that, especially in the
30:43
Speaker 1: mid terms, it's hate. It's usually for the person that's
30:45
Speaker 1: in office. But the DSA and Zura Mamdani have handed
30:50
Speaker 1: the Republicans an issue. They have something else to fear,
30:53
Speaker 1: fear and hate. He said, be careful, this is what's coming,
30:57
Speaker 1: and a lot of people are buying into it because
31:00
Speaker 1: you hear it constantly. By the way, I had never
31:03
Speaker 1: heard that was that was a brilliant analysis. That was
31:05
Speaker 1: a brilliant analysis showing the two of them and that
31:08
Speaker 1: they're doing the same thing and they're being to use
31:10
Speaker 1: the same web.
31:12
Speaker 4: Haven't I dealt with both of them? Yeah, you have
31:15
Speaker 4: so much, Johan, he's a nude jack. But with Donald Trump,
31:19
Speaker 4: because as the Republican in twenty twenty one, I wasn't
31:21
Speaker 4: a Maga, the Republican candidate in twenty twenty five, I
31:25
Speaker 4: wasn't a maga. Obviously the President ultimately endorsed Cuomo and
31:29
Speaker 4: not me should have hopelessly was a vopeful mandami.
31:32
Speaker 3: Fine. Uh but you can see that they that's why
31:35
Speaker 3: they're a track.
31:36
Speaker 2: Yeah.
31:36
Speaker 3: I get another.
31:37
Speaker 1: Yeah, you've had to deal with both of them. I
31:40
Speaker 1: get that. That's this was a little deeper, and this
31:42
Speaker 1: was a little deeper. You should write an editorial for
31:44
Speaker 1: the New York Times that was really good.
31:46
Speaker 3: Oh waiter, take it.
31:47
Speaker 4: That would be my I've written editorials for other publications.
31:51
Speaker 3: Uh, maybe sub stacked see the New York.
31:53
Speaker 4: Times may say not not quite our speed, but this
31:57
Speaker 4: might be good for a subs.
31:58
Speaker 1: But do it quick, yeah, real quick, because somebody else
32:01
Speaker 1: is going to definitely steal that
