Hour 2: January 6th Anniversary. · The Mark Simone Show

Speaker 1: Democrats and Trump haters would like to make that like
0:02
Speaker 1: a national thing every year, like you know, nine to eleven,
0:06
Speaker 1: where the whole country stops to remember, or they'd want
0:09
Speaker 1: to make it like a pearl harbor kind of. It's
0:11
Speaker 1: not going to work. Those of you that don't remember
0:14
Speaker 1: January sixth, was that terrible trespassing incident at the Capitol?
0:18
Speaker 1: I remember. But here's the democrats are now. You know,
0:23
Speaker 1: all the universities have been corrupted, many of our high schools.
0:27
Speaker 1: You got all these left wing teachers. You got all
0:30
Speaker 1: this left wing propaganda being taught in schools now, and
0:33
Speaker 1: this is why you get people that younger, people that
0:35
Speaker 1: will vote from Mamdani twenty thirty years of being indoctrinated
0:39
Speaker 1: in these left wing classrooms. Well, now they want to
0:43
Speaker 1: add January sixth to the history books and have that
0:45
Speaker 1: taught in every classroom.
0:47
Speaker 2: Now.
0:47
Speaker 1: Of course, they're not going to teach the whole story,
0:50
Speaker 1: as democrats do or fake news does. They'll just give
0:54
Speaker 1: you three or four pieces of the puzzle and leave
0:57
Speaker 1: out ninety eight percent of it, so they won't tell
0:59
Speaker 1: you that President Trump offered ten thousand troops and urged
1:04
Speaker 1: them to take the ten thousand troops to guard the
1:07
Speaker 1: capital that day. It was just another demonstration like the
1:10
Speaker 1: other two hundred and seventy five that had happened that
1:13
Speaker 1: whole summer in America. But Nancy Pelosi and the mayor
1:18
Speaker 1: of DC decided not to accept the offer of the
1:20
Speaker 1: ten thousand troops. They were told four hundred thousand demonstrators
1:25
Speaker 1: would show up. They turned down the ten thousand troops.
1:29
Speaker 1: And by the way, demonstrations of that size were taking
1:32
Speaker 1: place all the time in Washington when Trump was president.
1:35
Speaker 1: Once remember at the Lincoln Memorial, and he surrounded it
1:39
Speaker 1: with troops with machine guns and nobody got near the
1:41
Speaker 1: Lincoln Memorial. The worst one was when Democratic protesters tried
1:46
Speaker 1: to take the White House, tried to come over the fence.
1:49
Speaker 1: Remember Trump put out those tweets if you do come
1:52
Speaker 1: over the fence, you're going to see the most vicious
1:54
Speaker 1: dogs you've ever seen. But he surrounded the place with troops.
1:57
Speaker 1: There was still a hell of a battle at the
1:58
Speaker 1: White House fence. Over two hundred law enforcement ended up
2:02
Speaker 1: in the hospital after that. But January sixth, it was
2:07
Speaker 1: just another one of those, not as bad as the
2:08
Speaker 1: one at the White House. But Nancy Pelosi made the
2:12
Speaker 1: decision that she would try to guard the building with
2:15
Speaker 1: just the building security guys the Capitol Hill Police, which
2:19
Speaker 1: it's basically go it is the security guys at the
2:21
Speaker 1: building instead of actual troops and Capitol police. They're nice,
2:27
Speaker 1: but they there's only a couple of hundred of them,
2:30
Speaker 1: and they can't control four hundred thousand demonstrators, so they'll
2:35
Speaker 1: leave that out of the discussion. In fact, Nancy Pelosi
2:38
Speaker 1: to this day denies it, although there's video of her
2:41
Speaker 1: admitting to it that night that she turned it down
2:43
Speaker 1: and this is all her fault. But she'll deny it,
2:45
Speaker 1: and they'll teach the fake version of January sixth. They'll say,
2:49
Speaker 1: they'll just keep using the word insurrection. It was an insurrection. Meantime,
2:53
Speaker 1: they arrested twelve hundred of those demonstrators, not a single
2:56
Speaker 1: one has been charged with insurrection. And remember they charge
3:00
Speaker 1: these guys with everything they could hit him with. Each
3:02
Speaker 1: one got hit with twelve charges, nineteen charges, twenty anything
3:05
Speaker 1: they could charge him with, and nobody got charged with insurrection.
3:09
Speaker 1: But we'll see see what happens if they can stop
3:13
Speaker 1: that from going into the history books. Hey. TV ratings
3:17
Speaker 1: for the year twenty twenty five, you know the New
3:20
Speaker 1: Year's Eve show on ABC, which was Dick Clark's rock
3:23
Speaker 1: in New Year's Eve for years now it's Ryan Seacrest
3:27
Speaker 1: did pretty well, got eighteen million viewers and today's broadcast
3:32
Speaker 1: TV World that is enormous. That's huge, huge, and got
3:38
Speaker 1: seventeen million the year before, so it was a definite increase.
3:41
Speaker 1: It went up. Andy Cohen of course, looked ridiculous, getting
3:45
Speaker 1: drunk out of his mind, going into a drunken rant
3:48
Speaker 1: about Eric Adams, and then Adams was asked about it
3:51
Speaker 1: the next day. What do you got to say to
3:53
Speaker 1: Andy Cohen who called you all kinds of names, and
3:56
Speaker 1: he said, I got My response is two letters, and
4:01
Speaker 1: you thought it must be f you or something like
4:06
Speaker 1: My response is two letters AA, which is a great response.
4:11
Speaker 1: And now Adam's tweeting about Andy Cohen alcoholics anonymous. So
4:18
Speaker 1: it is a problem. You know, people get drunk on
4:21
Speaker 1: New Year's Eve, but if you're on live television in
4:23
Speaker 1: front of eighteen million people, you'd think you'd have a
4:26
Speaker 1: little discipline not to get that drunk. But it was
4:28
Speaker 1: a big night for ABC with the eighteen million viewers.
4:34
Speaker 1: Fox News had one of the best years ever. Four
4:37
Speaker 1: point one million viewers was the average. That's like way
4:41
Speaker 1: beyond any other cable network four point one million viewers.
4:45
Speaker 1: Biggest show of the year was The Five and Jesse
4:49
Speaker 1: Waters and of course Hannity. Those are the three biggest
4:52
Speaker 1: shows MSNBC, CNN a bad year, not a lot. The
4:57
Speaker 1: most watched telecast of twenty twenty five number one, right
5:02
Speaker 1: the super Bowl, Number two. Tracker The hell is Tracker?
5:07
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's one of those drama shows. I know,
5:09
Speaker 1: I do know. It's about that whatever he is, a detective,
5:12
Speaker 1: whatever he is who tracks down missing people. Nineteen episodes,
5:16
Speaker 1: but it did really well. The NFL was the biggest
5:18
Speaker 1: thing on television all year. If you take the top
5:21
Speaker 1: one hundred things of twenty twenty five, forty five of
5:25
Speaker 1: them almost half were NFL games. That's really the only
5:30
Speaker 1: thing keeping broadcast TV alive. Ratings are down dramatically. Everything
5:35
Speaker 1: in broadcast TV ratings are way down, but the NFL
5:40
Speaker 1: doing really well. Tim Waltz, you know, he said he
5:43
Speaker 1: will not seek reelection, and I don't blame him. If
5:47
Speaker 1: eighteen billion was stolen right under your nose in your
5:50
Speaker 1: own state, you got no business seeking reelection. By the way,
5:53
Speaker 1: the attorney general of Minnesota, that left wing kook, Keith Ellison,
5:58
Speaker 1: Why hasn't he resigned? If you're the attorney general and
6:01
Speaker 1: eighteen billion was stolen right into your nose and you
6:04
Speaker 1: didn't catch it, why hasn't he resigned? Now people are
6:08
Speaker 1: calling for Waltz to resign immediately. He won't seek reelection,
6:12
Speaker 1: but people are saying this is so bad, this scandal
6:15
Speaker 1: so horrifying, that he should resign immediately. He refuses to
6:19
Speaker 1: do that.
6:20
Speaker 3: I'm not going anywhere, and you can make all your
6:22
Speaker 3: requests for me to resign over my dead body will
6:25
Speaker 3: that happen. I will fight this thing till the very
6:27
Speaker 3: end to make this state better. And the question that
6:30
Speaker 3: I think they need to decide is is when did
6:32
Speaker 3: the guy in the White House resign? Anytime I get
6:35
Speaker 3: drug into being next to Donald Trump? God help me,
6:38
Speaker 3: I don't want to be judged against that guy.
6:41
Speaker 1: Now, apparently in private they told him he should resign,
6:43
Speaker 1: and he threw a temper tantrument and went nuts. And
6:47
Speaker 1: then the rest of that speech was this whole thing
6:49
Speaker 1: about every minute I spend on my own political interests
6:53
Speaker 1: is a minute. I can't spend defending the people in
6:55
Speaker 1: Minnesota against the criminals who prey on our generosity. Well,
6:59
Speaker 1: I think if eighteen billion went missing, we could agree.
7:02
Speaker 1: He's not very good at that. Anyway, he is suffering.
7:06
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, want to make fun of a
7:09
Speaker 1: guy with medical problems. He is suffering from Trump arrangement syndrome.
7:13
Speaker 1: Game's over for him now. It was all me. I
7:16
Speaker 1: was the bad guy or whatever.
7:18
Speaker 3: Well, put up or shut up now and tell us
7:20
Speaker 3: what you're going to do to make this state better.
7:22
Speaker 3: Answer these tough questions. Quit hiding behind this and expect
7:26
Speaker 3: for the next eleven months for me to ride you
7:29
Speaker 3: like you've never been ridden.
7:32
Speaker 1: I don't know what that means. But what's Trump going
7:35
Speaker 1: to do about it? Well, right now they're going in
7:37
Speaker 1: and arresting the criminals who stole the eighteen billion, not million,
7:42
Speaker 1: eighteen billion. They're arresting them one by one. This is
7:45
Speaker 1: like the Bernie Madoff cleanup. You know, they had to
7:48
Speaker 1: go after everybody, but then they had to claw back
7:50
Speaker 1: the money. Well, the Feds are starting to do that.
7:52
Speaker 1: You know a lot of these ring leaders of this
7:54
Speaker 1: fraud and it was just an out and out fraud
7:57
Speaker 1: scheme by these Somalis in in Minnesota. Many of them
8:02
Speaker 1: took the money and bought mansions and Porsches and luxury
8:06
Speaker 1: goods and all sorts of expensive real estate. Well here's one.
8:10
Speaker 1: One woman was convicted. The court is now a federal charges.
8:13
Speaker 1: The court is now clawing back everything, making her sell
8:16
Speaker 1: the houses, the Porsche, the cars, the Rolls Royces and
8:20
Speaker 1: getting the money back. So it takes a while. You know,
8:23
Speaker 1: with the Bernie Madoff stuff, that was like fifty billion,
8:26
Speaker 1: but they got back like thirty billion of it. So
8:29
Speaker 1: they'll get they'll probably get back nine billion of this money.
8:31
Speaker 1: They'll claw it back slowly but surely. And that's what
8:34
Speaker 1: you do about it. Oh, I forget George Conway. Now,
8:40
Speaker 1: this guy is going to be great. We are so
8:43
Speaker 1: lucky that he has come to New York and he's
8:45
Speaker 1: going to run for the Gerald Nadler, a congressional seat
8:49
Speaker 1: that's open. Now you might be saying, well, what if
8:50
Speaker 1: he wins. He's a left wing crazy, Yeah, but so
8:53
Speaker 1: as Nadler, So it's no change at all. And that
8:56
Speaker 1: district in New York, you're always going to get a
8:58
Speaker 1: left wing cooks. So you might as well, get this guy,
9:00
Speaker 1: because he's so silly and such a clown. George Conway.
9:04
Speaker 1: He was married at one time to Kelly and Conway,
9:07
Speaker 1: who's great and you might say, well, how could that be. Well,
9:10
Speaker 1: back then, you know, he was one of the most
9:12
Speaker 1: brilliant lawyers in New York, brilliant attorney, a very successful guy,
9:17
Speaker 1: and then he was married to her. But we've seen
9:19
Speaker 1: this happen before where somebody goes nuts. And Conway was
9:24
Speaker 1: hanging around with all the big Conservatives and Republicans, George Conway,
9:28
Speaker 1: and then at some point we've seen it with other people.
9:30
Speaker 1: They they just snap, they just go nuts, and all
9:34
Speaker 1: of a sudden they become a left wing cook with
9:37
Speaker 1: Trump derangement syndrome. But he's going to run for this
9:40
Speaker 1: seat on the west side of Manhattan. Now, you might
9:43
Speaker 1: be saying to yourself, wait a minute, he lives in Maryland.
9:45
Speaker 1: He doesn't even live here. Well, he's a Democrat. You
9:48
Speaker 1: can do whatever the hell you want when you're a Democrat.
9:50
Speaker 1: And he's got raised money and he's got his first
9:53
Speaker 1: campaign ads. The George Conway campaign is underway. As one
9:58
Speaker 1: of the ads, we.
10:00
Speaker 4: President a mendacious president, a criminal president. Whose masked agents
10:04
Speaker 4: are disappearing people from our streets. Who's breaking international law
10:09
Speaker 4: and he's running our federal government like a mob protection racket.
10:15
Speaker 1: This is why this guy's going to be great. This hysterical,
10:17
Speaker 1: hyperbolg and nonsense. And he's mendacious, which I think is bad.
10:24
Speaker 1: I don't know exactly what it is, but it's bad.
10:26
Speaker 1: You don't want to be mendacious. He's disappearing people, it's
10:30
Speaker 1: called arresting people. I love the and it's a violation
10:34
Speaker 1: of international law. You're going to hear this a lot
10:36
Speaker 1: from Democrats, especially with Venezuela. He's violated international law. Nobody
10:42
Speaker 1: knows what the hell he's talking about. There's no such
10:44
Speaker 1: thing as international law. Nobody knows what they're referring to.
10:48
Speaker 1: Where's this international law you're talking about. There is no
10:53
Speaker 1: international law. The only thing you could point to. I
10:56
Speaker 1: asked Greg Jarrett, the great legal experd, what the hell
10:58
Speaker 1: are they talking about international He said, maybe they're talking
11:01
Speaker 1: about the UN charter United Nations. But they're not a
11:06
Speaker 1: law enforcement agency. They have no law, they have no authority,
11:10
Speaker 1: they have no standing at all. So there's no such
11:12
Speaker 1: thing as international law. But the commercial goes.
11:15
Speaker 4: On, he doesn't like me. I don't like what he's
11:17
Speaker 4: done to our great country, and now I'm running for
11:20
Speaker 4: Congress to take the fight directly back to him.
11:23
Speaker 1: On your behalf, you go, he does not like what
11:27
Speaker 1: he's done to this country. But Joe Biden, he ola,
11:30
Speaker 1: he was thrilled about that. Thrilled. But this guy's going
11:34
Speaker 1: to be great. We're so lucky to get him here.
11:36
Speaker 1: This is so good for us. We're going to have
11:38
Speaker 1: nothing but amusement from this. George Conway, you remember, he's
11:41
Speaker 1: the guy that ran that crazy Lincoln project with the
11:44
Speaker 1: same thing. Nothing he did work because it was all
11:47
Speaker 1: too over the top hysterical.
11:48
Speaker 5: I don't intend to be doing this when I'm sixty
11:50
Speaker 5: six or sixty seven or sixty eight. You know, I'm
11:54
Speaker 5: kind of like a special teams player. I want to
11:56
Speaker 5: do this for one reason, and that is to help
12:00
Speaker 5: get this our governmental system back on track with something
12:06
Speaker 5: back to normal, at least back toward normal.
12:09
Speaker 1: Here you go. His idea normal was Joe Biden, you know,
12:14
Speaker 1: the great stephen A. Smith. Let me see if I
12:17
Speaker 1: can find that quote. It's a very important point because
12:21
Speaker 1: a lot of these Democrats they're going nuts and screaming
12:23
Speaker 1: and yelling. Stephen A. Smith is a Democrat, but he
12:26
Speaker 1: he's like Bill Maher occasional bouts of common sense. But
12:30
Speaker 1: he stunned a Democratic audience by explaining to them because
12:34
Speaker 1: they can't get how Donald Trump gets elected. But Stephen A.
12:37
Speaker 1: Smith explained to him that for all the things they
12:39
Speaker 1: hate about Donald Trump, to normal voters, to most normal voters,
12:45
Speaker 1: they think Trump is a lot closer to normal than
12:47
Speaker 1: today's Democrats are. And you could look at Trump and say,
12:51
Speaker 1: why he's doing things that's not presidential? Why does he
12:53
Speaker 1: behave like that way? But whatever he does, it's a
12:56
Speaker 1: lot more normal than Democrats are. Right now, Hey, there's
13:00
Speaker 1: a new phenomenon. I don't like this at all. You know,
13:03
Speaker 1: you know the restaurant Carbone. It opened I don't know
13:07
Speaker 1: about ten years ago in the village Carbone, an Italian restaurant.
13:11
Speaker 1: It's sort of it was just a gimmick actually for
13:15
Speaker 1: younger you know, the whole new generation. It was like
13:17
Speaker 1: old school red sauce Italian food. But to these younger people,
13:23
Speaker 1: they'd never seen that. I mean, you could go to
13:26
Speaker 1: Patsy's and it's much better there, but they never saw
13:28
Speaker 1: anything like Carbone and the checker tablecloths. I never saw
13:31
Speaker 1: anything like that. So it took off. It became huge.
13:35
Speaker 1: And when you become the hottest trendiest restaurant, then in
13:40
Speaker 1: the old days, you were the hottest trendiest restaurant, and
13:42
Speaker 1: anybody would come to New York. I gotta go there.
13:44
Speaker 1: I want to. Well, now they opened. When you're at
13:47
Speaker 1: the trendiest place, you open everywhere. Then there was Carbone Miami.
13:50
Speaker 1: Then there was Carbone Paris, Carbone, Los Angeles. Carbone now
13:54
Speaker 1: it's just opening in the Bellagio. So the reason for this,
13:58
Speaker 1: you get these big hedge fund guys and whenever it's
14:01
Speaker 1: the hottest restaurant in the world. You know, if you
14:04
Speaker 1: want to always get a table, you bribe the matri
14:06
Speaker 1: d or something. But if you really want to get
14:08
Speaker 1: treated well, you get friendly with the owner and you
14:10
Speaker 1: offer to put up millions and millions and millions to
14:13
Speaker 1: open some more restaurants. That's why you see like Ovre
14:17
Speaker 1: on sixtieth Street, that became a big hotspot. Next thing
14:21
Speaker 1: you know, there's an Ova on fiftieth Street. Next thing
14:23
Speaker 1: you know, there's an avraa over here. Next thing you know,
14:25
Speaker 1: there's one in Beverly Hills, there's one in Miami. But
14:27
Speaker 1: this phenomenon is spreading everywhere, and it's not good. Everything
14:32
Speaker 1: is becoming a chain now. For instance, Sally's Pizza New Haven.
14:39
Speaker 1: There's Frank Peppi's, Sally's. These were like the two. You
14:43
Speaker 1: drive to New Haven just to have these pizzas. Everybody's
14:46
Speaker 1: saying are the best in the world. Well, next thing,
14:48
Speaker 1: you know, Frank Peppy's opening everywhere everywhere. There's one in
14:52
Speaker 1: the Fairfield, there's one in Stanford, there's one here, there's
14:56
Speaker 1: one in Yonkers, there's one. They're all over the place.
14:58
Speaker 1: There's a couple of them in flor They're in Nashville,
15:01
Speaker 1: they're now. The other one is Sally. Sally's just announced
15:04
Speaker 1: they're opening two one hundred and fifty of them, two
15:08
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty of them. Now, the problem is
15:10
Speaker 1: everybody would go to New Haven because it was such
15:12
Speaker 1: phenomenal pizza. When you open two hundred and fifty of them,
15:16
Speaker 1: you're not gonna have the same pizza everywhere. It's not possible.
15:20
Speaker 1: It doesn't work. And they're all doing this, you know,
15:24
Speaker 1: in Queens and Utopia Boulevard for a million years. Utopia Bagels.
15:28
Speaker 1: They were always the best bagels in York. People would
15:30
Speaker 1: drive out there just to go to Utopia Begels. They
15:33
Speaker 1: were so amazing. Then they opened one in Manhattan, and
15:37
Speaker 1: it's always the same story. It's not as good as
15:40
Speaker 1: the original. Now there's four in New York City. Now
15:43
Speaker 1: they're opening all over. Now there's going to be one
15:44
Speaker 1: in London. They're opening here, they're opening. They've got to
15:47
Speaker 1: stop this stuff. These are like our finest food things,
15:51
Speaker 1: and they're all becoming franchises. Now. McDonald's can figure out
15:55
Speaker 1: how to do it, but these people can't. It doesn't work.
15:59
Speaker 1: It's diluting the whole thing. Even the top restaurants of
16:01
Speaker 1: the world that John George, Danielle all these guys. Now
16:05
Speaker 1: instead of one restaurant, they got seventy five, and they're
16:08
Speaker 1: not the same quality. You can't you can't have seventy
16:12
Speaker 1: five be the same quality. It's got to stop. Hey,
16:14
Speaker 1: we'll take some calls. Next eight hundred three to two
16:17
Speaker 1: one zero seven ten is the number eight hundred three
16:21
Speaker 1: two one zero seven ten.

17:32
Speaker 7: mic in the backseat of her car talking to her daughter,
17:36
Speaker 7: and in that conversation, she Pelosi took the blame for
17:41
Speaker 7: not having the National Guard.
17:43
Speaker 1: Yeah, she turned down the ten thousand troops. And in
17:46
Speaker 1: that documentary her daughter was doing the car in the
17:49
Speaker 1: car the camera was running. She said, this is all

Speaker 1: I did that on vacation for a couple of days.
18:16
Speaker 1: Just listen to talk radio all day, y'all learn a lot.
18:19
Speaker 1: Let's go to Joel in Florida. Joel, how you doing.
18:23
Speaker 8: Good morning, Mark. We're talking about January sixth to one
18:26
Speaker 8: person when not talking about his Ashley Babbitt. Yeah, the
18:30
Speaker 8: old person that killed her was still working. In fact,
18:33
Speaker 8: was promoted and subsequent to a desk. She was not
18:36
Speaker 8: a quoted any military arned.
18:37
Speaker 4: I know.
18:37
Speaker 1: It's a it's a very important thing. Ashley Babbitt was
18:40
Speaker 1: murdered in cold blood by a Capitol Hill policeman she's
18:45
Speaker 1: one of the protesters January sixth, but she's a military
18:48
Speaker 1: veteran war hero, she's a protester. But they were coming
18:53
Speaker 1: in through the window. She's coming through and that officer
18:56
Speaker 1: takes out his gun and just shoots her, just shoots
18:58
Speaker 1: her in cold blood. And he's still there. A lot
19:01
Speaker 1: of people are talking to the present about this. Something
19:03
Speaker 1: should be done to this guy, at least fire him,
19:05
Speaker 1: get him off the Capitol Hill Police. But a lot
19:07
Speaker 1: of people in Congress have been defending this guy. Now
19:10
Speaker 1: one reason, and this guy has a history of very
19:14
Speaker 1: reckless behavior with his gun. It was an incident once
19:17
Speaker 1: at his house where he just started firing at cars.
19:19
Speaker 1: I mean, he should be removed. But a lot of
19:24
Speaker 1: people in Congress, big Congress people are afraid to go
19:27
Speaker 1: after anybody in the Capitol Hill Police because they're the
19:32
Speaker 1: Capitol Hill Police. They've seen a lot, they know a
19:34
Speaker 1: lot of secrets about these guys. So nobody wants to
19:38
Speaker 1: get them on the you know, against them because they
19:41
Speaker 1: know a lot of stuff. Let's go to Blauvelt in Florida. Blauvelt,
19:45
Speaker 1: how you doing.
19:46
Speaker 2: Mark Simone, how are you Sarah? Welcome back? Hey, that
19:49
Speaker 2: police officer, sure that you were just talking about he
19:51
Speaker 2: should be he should be in jail on this midterms,
19:54
Speaker 2: the mid trust coming up. There are in DC. Should
19:57
Speaker 2: hire Trump's on Baron and all his friends and get
20:03
Speaker 2: all these videos of all these democrats Ellen in Trump
20:07
Speaker 2: didn't take out MDUA the first year.
20:08
Speaker 1: It's already there. It's been there for the whole week.
20:12
Speaker 1: It's already there. But it's already I don't mean to
20:15
Speaker 1: confuse you with reality. It's already there. It's been all
20:18
Speaker 1: over Twitter since Saturday. It's all over Twitter. The White
20:21
Speaker 1: House has already put it out.
20:23
Speaker 2: Uh.
20:23
Speaker 1: In fact, if you go to any White House site,
20:25
Speaker 1: Trump's site, all that videos up there, Schumer demanding we
20:28
Speaker 1: get rid of Maduro, of Chris Murphy doing it. The
20:31
Speaker 1: video is already all over the place and has been
20:33
Speaker 1: for days. Let's go to Bill in Hackensack, Bill, how
20:36
Speaker 1: you doing good? Thank you?
20:38
Speaker 2: Mark.
20:39
Speaker 9: By the way, the one name the Democrats will never mention,
20:44
Speaker 9: aside from Tampon Tim Wolfs, is Ashley Babbitt. And thank
20:48
Speaker 9: you for mentioning her name. That innocent woman who was
20:53
Speaker 9: five foot four Air Force veteran Ashley Babbitt gunned down murdered, Yes.
20:59
Speaker 1: By that awful Capitol hillcop who should be and a
21:02
Speaker 1: lot of people are talking to the President constantly about
21:05
Speaker 1: going after this guy, finally getting some justice for Ashley Babbott.
21:09
Speaker 1: Let's go to Mike in New Jersey. Mike, how you doing?
21:12
Speaker 10: Yeah, Hi, Mark, I enjoy your show.
21:13
Speaker 1: Thanks.
21:14
Speaker 10: My good question. The Affordable Care Act. My son is
21:16
Speaker 10: being hammered his premiums of Skyrocket and we just don't
21:21
Speaker 10: know what to do his coverage. Obviously he can't afford.
21:24
Speaker 10: There's no subsidies anymore. Is there anything you can suggest,
21:27
Speaker 10: as Trump have anything in the works? Well, Congress doing anything?
21:30
Speaker 1: That's the problem. This will all come up at the
21:32
Speaker 1: end of the month when they'll have to vote to
21:33
Speaker 1: continue the subsidies. It's over that issue that the government
21:36
Speaker 1: shut down. Happened last time. It could happen again. I
21:40
Speaker 1: would imagine in the end, because you've got midterms coming up,
21:43
Speaker 1: the President will sort of agree to continue that subsidy
21:46
Speaker 1: for a while. His plan is much better instead of
21:49
Speaker 1: the constant subsidizing this Unaffordable Care Act is fix it,
21:54
Speaker 1: fix it. A lot of that'll be privatizing, and the
21:57
Speaker 1: whole system is totally government corrupt you know, which means
22:02
Speaker 1: you know, you get an MRI, they charge you three
22:04
Speaker 1: eight hundred dollars for it. Meantime, there's another person getting
22:08
Speaker 1: an MRI somewhere else where. It's eight hundred dollars. It's
22:10
Speaker 1: all of these ridiculous finaggling. The problem to the Affordable
22:15
Speaker 1: Care Act. It was just a gift to insurance agencies
22:17
Speaker 1: to charge whatever the hell they want to charge. It
22:20
Speaker 1: needs to be cleaned up. So they'll probably have to
22:22
Speaker 1: extend the subsidies for the rest of this year while
22:25
Speaker 1: they figure out how to fix this Affordable Care Act. Hey,
22:28
Speaker 1: when we come back and culter, we'll be with us
22:31
Speaker 1: next on seven to ten wor the follow her on substack,
22:35
Speaker 1: where she's got just columns and videos and podcasts, interviews,
22:39
Speaker 1: all sorts of stuff, a lot of content and culture
22:41
Speaker 1: dot substack dot com and culture.
22:45
Speaker 11: How you doing fantastic? How are you mark? Some IM
22:48
Speaker 11: miss talking to you the last couple week.
22:50
Speaker 1: Yeah, but what a first week of twenty twenty six.
22:53
Speaker 1: Look at all that's happened in one week. You got
22:55
Speaker 1: rid of Tim Waltz, Maduro everything. What do you think
22:59
Speaker 1: I know?
22:59
Speaker 11: Yeah, I'll not letting the grass grow under his seat.
23:02
Speaker 11: We have a short amount of time. I think it's fantastic.
23:05
Speaker 11: I have a column coming out on it later. I
23:07
Speaker 11: want to go back to the era of a semi
23:12
Speaker 11: competent CIA, which we haven't had recently but may have now,
23:16
Speaker 11: installing puppet governments throughout Latin America. They're obviously incapable of
23:21
Speaker 11: governing themselves. And things were going great when the CIA
23:26
Speaker 11: and the State Department and John Foster Dulles were running things,
23:29
Speaker 11: knocking out the incompetence, I mean, the problem. George Kennon,
23:35
Speaker 11: the legendary diplomat, went took a tour through Latin America,
23:40
Speaker 11: knowing the strategic importance to the US, and basically concluded,
23:44
Speaker 11: these people are incapable of governing themselves. We should take
23:47
Speaker 11: all measures. This is this is, this will be a
23:49
Speaker 11: problem for the US. We shouldn't worry about democratic niceties
23:55
Speaker 11: that we would not accept in this country. And and
23:58
Speaker 11: that was followed up until liberals got the idea that's,
24:02
Speaker 11: oh no, they're just as good at self governance as
24:05
Speaker 11: we are. Well, obviously they aren't. Over and over again
24:08
Speaker 11: you get the same pattern. I mean Venezuela, for example,
24:11
Speaker 11: which I've written about a few times it was the people,
24:15
Speaker 11: i e. Peasants who keep voting for these communists who
24:21
Speaker 11: promise to steal from the rich and give them all
24:24
Speaker 11: their money, which they proceed to do, and then the
24:26
Speaker 11: country is out of money. They can't get loyal out
24:28
Speaker 11: of the ground. No, there has to be a paternalistic
24:32
Speaker 11: relationship to between the United States and Latin America. And
24:37
Speaker 11: it's weird that the media is acting as if we
24:40
Speaker 11: have no idea what this means to install that will
24:44
Speaker 11: be running things. No, no boots on the ground, no
24:47
Speaker 11: nation building. We just have our own, our own US
24:53
Speaker 11: backed ruler to save the people from themselves.
24:58
Speaker 1: Yeah, but who are we to comple ain't about their governing.
25:01
Speaker 1: We just elected Kathy Hockel and Mom Donnie, so who
25:04
Speaker 1: are we to talk?
25:05
Speaker 11: Yes, well, New York should sit this one out.
25:09
Speaker 1: And Mom Donnie just put this woman in charge of housing.
25:12
Speaker 1: And apparently one time she said home ownership is white
25:18
Speaker 1: supremacy and we must see a.
25:21
Speaker 11: Private press read in the New York She owns a
25:25
Speaker 11: one point seven million dollar home in Tennessee. So at
25:30
Speaker 11: least there's no hypocrisy from the left. No, not ever,
25:34
Speaker 11: But wow, that is this is This is not going
25:36
Speaker 11: to be good for housing in New York. It probably,
25:40
Speaker 11: As we've discussed before, these rent control measures just invariably
25:45
Speaker 11: drive up the price of housing and limit the supply.
25:49
Speaker 11: As you have landlords who were forced to just walk
25:53
Speaker 11: away from their properties when the taxes and maintenance fees
25:58
Speaker 11: are more than what they are allowed to charge in
26:00
Speaker 11: rent by law. I mean, how long are they supposed
26:05
Speaker 11: to keep losing money every month? They just walk away
26:08
Speaker 11: and there goes there goes more housing.
26:11
Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, don't you feel bad for the left wing,
26:14
Speaker 1: the Democrats right now? These liberals, because remember they had
26:17
Speaker 1: to all go out and buy Ukrainian flags. Then they
26:19
Speaker 1: had to go buy Hamas flags. Then they had to
26:22
Speaker 1: buy Mexican flags. Then they had to get Somali flags.
26:25
Speaker 1: Now they got to go get Venezuelan flags. It's rough.
26:30
Speaker 11: I prefer it to. I love when they have these
26:33
Speaker 11: leftist protests and you know they'll have one sharp George
26:38
Speaker 11: Soros type instructing them all go buy an American flag.
26:45
Speaker 1: Yeah, for Republican it's easy. Just buy one American flag
26:48
Speaker 1: you except for life, That's all you need.
26:50
Speaker 11: They probably have their American flags if they're Republicans.
26:54
Speaker 1: And what about Tim Waltz. Is that the silliest guy
26:57
Speaker 1: you've ever seen? Did you ever think it would be
26:59
Speaker 1: over this fast for him?
27:02
Speaker 11: Not totally surprised. Man, he was a boob from the
27:06
Speaker 11: moment he showed up. Uh, it's it's it's a maybe.
27:13
Speaker 11: It teams a bit annoying that. I mean, you did
27:16
Speaker 11: almost become the vice president of the United States. All
27:19
Speaker 11: of this was known when he was running. There were
27:23
Speaker 11: there were surprisingly enough liberal administrators of these government programs,
27:28
Speaker 11: well you know, regular Minnesotans who were trying to be
27:32
Speaker 11: whistleblowers and being retaliated against out of Minnesota. This was
27:36
Speaker 11: a story there for the taking, I guess. I guess
27:40
Speaker 11: you and I read about it and and and talked
27:43
Speaker 11: about it a little bit. It was showing up on
27:46
Speaker 11: Twitter and in conservative publications like Breitbart, not in the
27:51
Speaker 11: detail we have now. But when was the mainstream media
27:55
Speaker 11: going to get around to covering this about the possible
27:58
Speaker 11: next vice president of the United States.
28:01
Speaker 1: I think never was the date they had picked. But hey,
28:05
Speaker 1: the other thing I'm watching every left wing fake news
28:09
Speaker 1: they're all keep saying about Venezuela's a violation of international law.
28:14
Speaker 1: Nobody can figure out where the hell is this international
28:16
Speaker 1: law they're talking about? Where does that exist?
28:18
Speaker 11: There is no law in the imaginations of small children
28:23
Speaker 11: and liberals like Santa Claus on the Easter Bunny. There
28:26
Speaker 11: is no such thing as international law, international laws. Whatever
28:30
Speaker 11: the United States says international law is so yes, it
28:34
Speaker 11: is hilarious when liberals go around wailing about the violations
28:40
Speaker 11: of something that doesn't exist.
28:41
Speaker 2: Yet.
28:42
Speaker 11: Tell us what?
28:42
Speaker 2: Tell us what?
28:43
Speaker 11: Santa Claus says?
28:44
Speaker 2: Next?
28:45
Speaker 1: Yeah, so what are we gonna do here in New
28:47
Speaker 1: York with Mom Donnie? You know this is going to
28:48
Speaker 1: get out of control.
28:55
Speaker 11: I'm looking good so far. I mean, I mean there
28:58
Speaker 11: was I had some I don't know, it's hope or
29:01
Speaker 11: if it just seems kind of logical that he doesn't
29:07
Speaker 11: seem like a like a half wit the way Tim
29:10
Speaker 11: Waltz does, so I kind of. I mean, when he
29:13
Speaker 11: decided to keep and announce before the election that he
29:16
Speaker 11: was going to keep the police Commissioner Jessica Tish, I thought, okay, well,
29:20
Speaker 11: he does at least know his entire mayoralty will go
29:24
Speaker 11: to hell if he unleashes criminals on the citizenry. And
29:30
Speaker 11: I thought maybe it would be a lot of left
29:32
Speaker 11: wing talk, but he would maintain, you know, just to
29:36
Speaker 11: satisfy his it's not particularly astute base, but then actually
29:43
Speaker 11: do a decent job running the city. No, it does
29:46
Speaker 11: not look like that at all, Mark Simone. He seems
29:50
Speaker 11: to really believe he's going to put all these DEI
29:55
Speaker 11: and left incompetence in important government positions and know that
30:00
Speaker 11: it really does not bode well.
30:01
Speaker 1: Well, but it's just the third term of Deblasio. All
30:05
Speaker 1: these same people were in the Deblasio administration. It was bad,
30:08
Speaker 1: but we got through it. So we'll get through this,
30:10
Speaker 1: won't we.
30:12
Speaker 11: Well, it is New York City, and New York City
30:14
Speaker 11: it's a hard city to wreck. And all I can
30:17
Speaker 11: say is that's what we thought for many years about
30:21
Speaker 11: the most beautiful state in the Union, in California. But
30:25
Speaker 11: you know, let Democrats put their minds to it, they
30:28
Speaker 11: can wreck anything.
30:30
Speaker 1: So you know, they always love this socialism and you
30:32
Speaker 1: could point out it's never worked anywhere in the world
30:34
Speaker 1: the last ten thousand times it failed, But don't they
30:37
Speaker 1: also ever noticed it? Whenever they do these big programs,
30:41
Speaker 1: billions of dollars go missing. Deblasio lost a billion dollars
30:44
Speaker 1: in that fake program. We just saw eighteen billion go
30:47
Speaker 1: missing in Minnesota. Don't they ever notice all the money
30:50
Speaker 1: goes missing?
30:52
Speaker 11: Hilariously, I was just looking. I was just on Twitter
30:55
Speaker 11: before calling you in to my friend Mickey Cows and
30:59
Speaker 11: tweeted out some thing about this Minnesota fraud, and his
31:02
Speaker 11: very left wing brother tweeted back at him, saying, you know,
31:05
Speaker 11: this is the fault of conservatives that this program had
31:08
Speaker 11: been I've been government run, we never would have had
31:13
Speaker 11: this fraud. This is simultaneously with two hundred billion being
31:19
Speaker 11: stolen from the COVID relief funds.
31:24
Speaker 1: No, it's just it's just off. Hey year old buddy
31:27
Speaker 1: George Conway is coming to New York. He didn't live here,
31:29
Speaker 1: but he's running for Jerry Nadler's congressional seat. Do you
31:32
Speaker 1: think he has any chance?
31:36
Speaker 11: Well, it elected Jerry Nadler. I can't say I really
31:42
Speaker 11: have my finger on the pulse of those voters. I
31:47
Speaker 11: don't know. It's very very strange. George and I, weirdly enough,
31:51
Speaker 11: were best friends for a long time. I introduced him
31:54
Speaker 11: to his wife. There was no daylight between our positions.
31:58
Speaker 11: And I don't know a lot of people. Trump just
32:00
Speaker 11: just broken.
32:01
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. There are people that just I was
32:03
Speaker 1: when Trump came along, they just went off the deep end.
32:06
Speaker 1: There's a bunch of them.
32:08
Speaker 11: But straight, he's not the only one of my friends.
32:11
Speaker 11: And it's one thing. I mean, you know, I have
32:13
Speaker 11: my my complaints with Trump. There's a lot to complain
32:18
Speaker 11: about there. But when you have people who have been
32:22
Speaker 11: had certain a certain and like I said, George is
32:25
Speaker 11: the only one a certain worldview, you know, anti crime
32:30
Speaker 11: for example, anti public violence, anti communism, and just because
32:37
Speaker 11: I don't know, they don't like Trump again, lots to
32:41
Speaker 11: dislike there. They suddenly slip on every single position they've
32:47
Speaker 11: ever held, believed, argued, written about. It's a very strange phenomenon.
32:54
Speaker 11: And I've seen it, I'd say a handful of times.
32:57
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, and Culter grew great talking to you. I
33:00
Speaker 1: had your back and everybody check out her Twitter and
33:04
Speaker 1: make sure you sign up at substack and get her
33:06
Speaker 1: new column. You can get interviews, podcasts, everything and culture
33:09
Speaker 1: dot substack dot com and culture. Thanks for being with us.
33:14
Speaker 11: Good to talk you, Mark Simone by all right, take care.
33:18
Speaker 1: I don't forget Buck and Clay Boy. I love their show.
33:20
Speaker 1: It's every day noon to three and it's coming up
33:22
Speaker 1: right after the news on seven to ten WR. There's
33:26
Speaker 1: no such thing as international law. When they say Trump
33:29
Speaker 1: is violated international law. So if you went to any
33:32
Speaker 1: left wing kook and you tried to justify that comment,
33:34
Speaker 1: all they can point to is, well, some countries have
33:38
Speaker 1: treaties and agreements with each other, okay, but that's not
33:41
Speaker 1: international law. And there is the United Nations a charter,
33:46
Speaker 1: but they have no authority over anything. There's a couple
33:48
Speaker 1: of international courts, but nobody recognizes and they have no
33:53
Speaker 1: jurisdiction or authority over anything. There is no international law
33:57
Speaker 1: to violate. Hey, we're out of time. I'll be back
33:59
Speaker 1: to tomorrow. I'm here every weekday ten to noon. And uh,
34:04
Speaker 1: if you can't listen ten to noon, get the podcast.
34:06
Speaker 1: That way, you can listen anytime you want, day or night,
34:09
Speaker 1: wherever you get podcasts. I'll see you tomorrow. Thanks for everything.
34:12
Speaker 1: Seven ten wor
