• 0:11
  Speaker 1: and it's good to be with you love listening to
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: mark myself i i was listening to him uh yesterday
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: yesterday the day before and i was trying to text
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: him it's funny i i hate to text him when
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: he's on the air because i don't like getting texted
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: when i'm on the air but i heard him talking
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: about somebody had called in talking about Phil Collins. Izzy,
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: you remember the phone call, right? Yeah. Right. So they
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: had said there was a news anchor and the person
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: suggested it was Sue Simmons. Sue Simmons would not be
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: dating Phil Collins for about 100 different reasons. But it
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: was Dana Tyler, I believe, who went. And Dana Tyler,
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: by the way, is one of the nicest human beings.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: I know I say that about a lot of people.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Dana Tyler is truly one of the nicest people you
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: could ever meet. But I know when they broke up,
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: that was tough. She took some time off from Channel
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: 2 because it impacted her so much. And she used
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: to fly to Switzerland, I believe. He had a chalet
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: in Switzerland. She would fly back and forth on her
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: dime to spend time with him. And it turns out,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: I believe the story goes, the woman whom he divorced
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: and then started dating Dana Tyler afterwards, He then broke
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: up with Dana and went back to the woman whom
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: he had divorced and they got married again, I believe.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: And then I think they got divorced again, if I'm right. But,
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: you know, everybody has their own story, so I'm not judging.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: But I know that Dana went through a lot. Dana
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: is one of the loveliest people you will ever meet
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: in the business. Anybody who knows her can, you won't
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: have a person arguing with me on that. Just, well,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: she went through a lot. Anyway, that's just, That's just
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: from my end of it, having known Dana for years.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: She's just a great person. 800-321-0710 is the number to
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: call if you'd like to take part in our conversation today.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: We talked about, I know the NYPD is pushing the
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: fact that they had the safest summer for shooting incidents,
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: shooting victims, and murders in recorded history. They talked about.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: the one little thing. And by the way, I'm a
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: big fan of commissioner Tish. I'm a big fan. I
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: remember the first day commissioner Tish appeared on a news
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: conference at a news conference on TV. I was at
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: channel seven. I was anchoring the morning show. Uh, this
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: was going back, um, for those, for those who don't
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: realize I was the morning anchor, uh, morning and midday
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: for 20 years at channel seven. I'm no longer with them, but, uh,
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: had great years there. I was anchoring the morning show and, uh,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: commissioner Tish was at the time, the commissioner of the,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: of the department of sanitation. And it was a snow day.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: And I, I looked in right away. I must confess.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: I judge. Oh, it's a Tish. It's one of the millionaires.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: All right. She probably got it through her job through
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: nepotism or connections and whatever. And right away was ready
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: to judge her in my mind. Of course, I didn't
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: say it on the air. And then she comes up
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: to the microphone and I was instantly impressed by how
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: sharp this person was and realized, no, Shut up, Rosado.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: This woman knows exactly what she's doing. And I know
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: not everybody in the NYPD is a big fan, but
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: there are a lot who are. And I could see why.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, she has gone to bat. Look, she is
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: as much pro-cop as you're going to get, especially under
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: this administration. And she, from an administrative point of view
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: and just a New Yorker point of view, I think
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: Commissioner Tisch is pretty darn good. So I'm not criticizing
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: her when I talk about this. But you can't deny...
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: when you talk about the fact that major crime fell 6.6%
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: citywide in August, down more than 5,000 reported crimes a
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: year to date. Okay. What is the connection to something
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: greater that we're not talking about here? Because New York
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: city and New York state refused to talk about it.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: The fact that 6,200 illegal migrants were arrested in New
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: York city in the last year. And in fact, between 12,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: depending on the statistic you look at, because the NYPD
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: doesn't want to give these statistics, the federal government says
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: between 12 and 40% of those people who were arrested
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: by ICE in New York City were responsible for aggravated
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: felonies or multiple felony convictions. So if it is 6,200
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: people and it's 40%, that's 2,400 or so, 2,400 and change.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: who had aggravated felonies or multiple felony convictions. Well, you
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: pull 2,400 people out of the mix. Mark talks about
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: it all the time, that his connections at the NYPD
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: say about 3,000 or 4,000 people are responsible for the
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: vast majority of severe crimes in New York. You get
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: rid of those people, you lock them up, which people
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: like Alvin Bragg don't want to do. You lock those
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: people up, crime will be almost non-existent because the majority
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: of the 9 million or 8.5 million people living in
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: New York They just want to get up in the morning,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: go to work, take care of their kids, come home,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: have their dinner, go to bed. That's it. They just
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: want to enjoy life. Or maybe they're having a tough
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: time and they've thought of crime, but they have an
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: edit button that prevents it. But you have a handful
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: of people to whom crime is good. And these are
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: the people that have to be dealt with. And I'm
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: not saying that everybody who is an illegal migrant is
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: a criminal. Clearly not. There are tens of millions of
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: illegal migrants here and only a few thousand in New
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: York who were arrested with felonies. So just a small
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: percentage of people. But nonetheless, when you allow 20 million
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: people into the United States without vetting them and say, oh,
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: in seven years, come back to a court hearing. We'll
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: talk about it then. And just let them into the
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: general population without knowing anything about them. You don't know
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: if they've had their shots. Here you require Americans to
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: have 72 vaccinations. You don't even know if they had
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: whooping cough vaccinations. You know nothing about them. But just
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: let them in. That's it. And that's what happens. You
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: then have people who mix into various communities. And now
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: you don't know which person who is speaking Lithuanian. I'm
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: just picking out a name, a nationality and a language
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: at random. Which person who's speaking Lithuanian is a U.S.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: citizen and which person is not? Because now you've let
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: in X amount of Lithuanians across the border who you
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: never vetted. So they just mix into a Lithuanian community.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: You don't know who's a citizen, who isn't. And so
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: that's the problem. And this was done intentionally by the
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: Democrats and by the Biden administration. Biden was brain dead. Sorry,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: he was brain dead. He just let the liberals who
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: were around him do this. And you had the people
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: like Mayorkas lying to Congress over and over again. I
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: remember Fox News having a split screen showing on one
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: side Bill Mellugian down at the border in Texas with
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: hundreds and hundreds at a time of people, migrants coming
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: across the border, just unchecked. And then you had Mayorkas
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: on the left side of the screen testifying, saying the
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: border is closed now. We have not allowed anybody in.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: The border is closed. Nobody is coming. And I'm like,
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: who are you going to believe, me or your own
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: lion eyes? That's literally what it came down to. You
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: had thousands upon thousands of people just streaming across every day, unchecked.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: And by the way, we're not just talking Latinos here. Remember,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: there were Chinese people who were coming across the border
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: at San Diego. Thousands. Now, why would, let's see, I
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: don't think we share a border with China. So think
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: about this. If you could afford, and in communist China,
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: they don't make a whole hell of a lot of
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: money a year. The average person makes about $ 9, 000 a
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: year equivalent to American dollars. So to get on a
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: plane and fly, and I think they need all sorts
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: of government permission as communists to fly out of the country.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: If you are a military-aged male getting on a plane
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: in China and you want to come to the U.S.,
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: why don't you just fly to the U.S.? Why are
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: they flying to Mexico and then sneaking across the border
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: from Mexico into the U.S. For what purpose? Just because
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: of better life? I highly doubt that. If you're going
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: to spend that money and take that time and go
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: through the motions of flying into Mexico and then pay
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: a mule to take you up across the border and
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: then they come across the border at San Diego and
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: then walk into the U.S., there's got to be some,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: I would think, nefarious reason for that. But the Biden administration,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: look the other way, just let them in. We don't
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: know how many things Thousands have come across or millions
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: have come across. Again, we're not talking just people who
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: speak Spanish. And by the way, before you think right away,
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: I'm anti-Latino. I speak fluent Spanish. I love the Spanish-speaking
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: peoples of the world, of the dozen, several dozen countries
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: where they speak Spanish. I lived in South Florida for years.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: I have relatives who live, we have cousins in Argentina
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: and Brazil. Brazil, of course, is Portuguese speaking. But so
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: don't get on my case about Spanish speaking. I love Spanish,
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: but I'm talking about people coming here legally and people
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: not legal. All right. And the vast majority of people
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: who speak Spanish in this country are here legally. And
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: they work very, very hard. And the ones that I know,
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: are pissed off at the fact that you have others
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: who came across illegally, and they're being given all the
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: fruits of our labor and allowed to come into this
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: country and live life, and we don't know what they
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: bring with them. What baggage? What criminality? We don't know.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: They could be perfectly great, but they may not be. 800-321-0710. 800-321-0710. So,
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: getting back to... Again, the New York City statistics showing
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: crime being down this summer so much. Crime is down.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: First off, the summer's not over yet. Secondly, and I
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: hope it stays the lowest in history. That's great. But
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: look what just happened in the last few days. You
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: have crazies on the street in this city because the city,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: everybody's full of empathy. Why would you want to put
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: these people in jail? Maybe because they have mental illness? Cisneros,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: the woman who committed the crime, we're not going to
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: say allegedly, she's seen on multiple angles of video stabbing
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: or trying to stab the police. And the police say
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: that she stabbed the other two individuals, the one man
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: in his 60s who is still in the hospital and
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: the woman in her 30s, the bank exec. Just a
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: new mom, beautiful woman with a whole career and a
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: whole life and a family ahead of her. Married her
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: law school love. And they went to Fordham right here
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: in the city. And all she is guilty of doing
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: is coming out of the subway and walking on the
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: streets in Times Square. And she got stabbed. Why? And
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: where is the city? And where are the Alvin Braggs
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: of the world arresting, prosecuting, doing your damn job, you individual?
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: I was going to say, comment on his weight. I'm
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: going to stop because I used to be obese. But
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Alvin Bragg, you need to do something, sir. Instead of
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: just putting out a manifesto saying that you're not going
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: to prosecute these 800 crimes, which crimes are you going
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: to prosecute, Al? Huh? When you got people who clearly
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: are mentally unstable, you don't have the asylums open up
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: and let them all out. There's got to be an answer.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Her own sibling, I think it's her brother, Cisneros' brother,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: said that she's mentally unstable and oftentimes wouldn't take her meds. Well,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: why didn't we know about that? And her mother said,
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: why didn't the police just try to grab her? Really?
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: Because maybe she had two 12-inch kitchen knives and she
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: just murdered one person and stabbed another. Why should a
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: cop get stabbed as well? And somebody I heard say,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: why didn't they shoot a pepper spray gun? I won't
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: say the brand on the air. Pepper spray gun at
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: her and debilitate her and then grab her. Because if
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: a cop hits her with pepper spray, then she's full
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: of pepper spray. And if it doesn't debilitate her, by
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: the way, she'll still come at the cop. But the
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: cop then has a difficult time arresting her because she'll
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: be full of pepper spray. The cop inhales that too.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: They don't, you know, I mean, it works just for
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: a second, but pepper spray is really meant for the
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: individual to get away from a bad situation. So that's
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: why they tase you, not use pepper spray when they
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: try to arrest you, because then it makes it difficult
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: for the cop to come and cuff you because you're
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: full of pepper spray. Think about it. 800-321-0710, 800-321-0710. So
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: on Tuesday, the House of Representatives passed House Resolution 1490.
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: a non-binding resolution introduced by Congressman Jeff Crank of Colorado
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: in order to get on the record those individuals who
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: support and those who denounce socialism in all its forms.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: And the measure passed, thankfully, in a 220 to 192 vote.
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: Every single voting Republican supported it. Even eight Democrats supported it.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: Two of the Democrats voted present. The resolution specifically targeted
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: the Democratic Socialists of America, and it opposed socialist policies
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: and included a call for the passage of the Save
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: America Act. But like clockwork, not only did the vast
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: majority of Democrats not vote to condemn socialism, but they
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: decided to condemn the small handful of Democrats who voted
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: along with Republicans in condemning socialism, specifically Democrats. going after
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: those two Democrats, Congressman Jared Golden and Congresswoman Marie Glusenkamp-Perez,
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: because those two Democrats voted with Republicans on a procedural
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: vote that allowed the Republican leadership to then overall advance
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: that huge package that went after socialism. So think about it.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: A few years ago, all but a few people in
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: the House would have voted to condemn socialism. But this
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: is where we are and the Democratic Party is today.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: The Democrats know that their only chance at power is
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: jumping onto the Democrat socialist bandwagon. They know that their
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: ideas are old and tired. They don't work. And that
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: the only segment of their party getting any traction is
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: the DSA. Because the DSA has been able to motivate
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: young people and excite them because young people apparently are
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: too busy on TikTok. to learn history and see what
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: socialism has done, resulting in tens of millions of deaths
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: around the world through history. It has never worked. It
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: has always, always resulted in the destruction of a country.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: It has never worked. It works great for the first
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: year or two until you run out of money. And
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: then at that point, everything collapses. If I were a Democrat,
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: I would either not vote at all or vote Republican.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: I don't know how you vote for the Democratic Socialists
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: at this point, especially if you're Jewish. If you're a
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Jewish New Yorker or Jewish American, how do you support
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: the DSA, with their platform and their anti-Jewish and anti-Israel stance. Yeah,
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: it's not just an anti-Israel stance. In many cases, it's
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: an anti-Jewish stance. I have many relatives who are Jewish,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: and they tend to be Democrats in my family, those
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: who are Jewish and married into. But they are kind
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: of keeping quiet about whom they're going to vote for,
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: and my gut tells me they're either not going to
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: vote or they're going to vote Republican. But at this point,
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: we'd love to know what you have to say about it. 800-321- 0710-800-321-0710.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: Ken Rosato in for Mark on your Thursday of Labor
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: Day weekend at 710WOR.
