  Speaker 1: Now 9 till noon weekdays. Mark Simone. Only on 710WOR. Hey,
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: in Huntington, Long Island, there's a great Italian restaurant, Posto Pozzo.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: I love this place. It's owned by two brothers, Joey Patron,
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Luigi Patron. Luigi sends me a note here. He's in
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Starbucks this morning. And there's these kids yelling and screaming
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: about the price of gas. It's $ 4 a gallon. They
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: can't believe it. Outrage, it's $ 4 a gallon. He then
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: watches them pay $ 7. 50 for a coffee, $ 7. 50 for some
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: fancy coffee, 20 ounces. So he figured it out. If
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: you bought Starbucks by the gallon, it's $ 42 a gallon.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: So they're outraged. Gas is $ 4 a gallon. But they
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: don't mind paying $ 42 a gallon. For Starbucks. Speaking of Huntington,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: let's go to Eddie in Huntington. Eddie, how are you doing?
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: Hey, good morning, Mark. Just in regards to that shooting
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: with ICE, I don't know what the federal guidelines are,
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: but I was in the police department 36 years. And
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: the only time we could shoot a vehicle coming at us,
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: if they were using something, a deadly physical force other
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: than the vehicle, we couldn't get out of the way.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: So in other words, if they had a gun and
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: they were shooting at us, we could fire back. But
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: if they were coming at us with just a vehicle,
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: we'd have to try and move.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you try and move, but where are you a cop?
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: New York City?
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, 36 years. And the other issue for us was,
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: did you fight in that vehicle? You killed a guy?
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: What's going to happen to the vehicle after he's dead?
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: Run into a store, a bunch of old ladies. So
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: hopefully that video shows that those officers couldn't get out
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: of the way.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: That would be the issue, I think. All right. Good point.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Good point. We'll see. Now, DHS says they will release
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: the body cam video and that we'll see it. Let's
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: go to Phil Suffolk County. Phil, how are you doing?
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: Hello, Mark. Thanks for taking my call. Anybody who saw
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: that Michigan Senate debate between Ayed and Rodgers, Rodgers accounted
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: himself very well. He tied Syed to, you know, Hamas
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: and Hezbollah. And, well, Syed is a little, you know, he's...
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: eloquent but ed rollins must have a soft spot in
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: his head to not agree that rogers is going to.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Win well right now right now it's neck and neck
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: he did very well in the debate here's rogers what.
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: My friend here just wants to do is he's kind
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: of like a glitchy ai chat bot is say the
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: same thing over and over and over again but let
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: me tell you this He has taken money from groups
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: associated and support the Muslim Brotherhood. He has taken money
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: from individuals on his campaign who openly support Hamas, Hezbollah, Al-Qaeda.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, now there's a lot of radical stuff in parts
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: of Michigan, you know, Dearborn, Ann Arbor. But the whole
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: state of Michigan is pretty sane and mostly Midwestern kind
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: of conservative. So Rogers most likely will win. Let's go
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: to Daniel in Westchester. Daniel, how you doing?
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: Hi, Mark.
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: Everybody should realize the Jews are the indigenous people of
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: the Middle East.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: The Muslims are the invaders.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I keep forgetting to call them that. They are
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: the indigenous people in Israel. Indigenous. Democrats love that word.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: That's a good point. Thanks for calling. Marco in New Jersey. Marco,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: what do you want to say?
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I got two things.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: Hopefully you'll let me say it.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: No, give me one. If it's interesting, we might let
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: you do a second one.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: Okay, so the first one is, is Trump a criminal?
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: All right, that's your last one. Thanks for calling. Let's
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: go to Vincent in Brooklyn. Vincent, how you doing?
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: Good morning, Mark. Mark, what the retired NYPD police officer
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: forgot to mention is, I follow federal guidelines, not New
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: York City, not New York State guidelines. Mark, this is
• 4:02
  Speaker 5: another great talking point. I hope you bring it up
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: with Bruce Blakeman when he comes on. How did this
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: illegal alien get a driver's license, and how was he
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: able to register that car? And here's another thing. When
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: I was coming up, real wise guys never traveled with
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: their wife and kids because among wise guys, there was
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: a code of honor. You don't go after each other's
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: wife and kids. So the wise guys never traveled with
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: their wife and kids. If this guy was such a fine,
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: upstanding citizen that Mayor Mondami wants to make him out
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: to be, what are you doing with that kid in
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: your car? And when people say, gang affiliated, give me
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: a break. Well, when I was young and you heard, oh,
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: this person was affiliated with Lucky Luciano, Al Capone, that
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: meant that they were in the life, Mark. That didn't mean.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Well, I guess what they mean, you know, you could
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: be a maid mob guy and then you could be
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: what they call an associate, which means they're using you for.
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: You go do the dirty work and everything. You're one
• 5:08
  Speaker 5: of the button men and everything.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: And.
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: Mark, I got sick last night when I'm hearing all
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: these race-hustling community organizers feigning outrage. As a Life magazine
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: reporter once told me, she says the first thing that
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: cheesy politicians do and cheesy leaders do They hide behind
• 5:33
  Speaker 5: the skirts of women and children. Oh, and there was
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: a five-year-old child in that car. What did that guy
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: have his kid in the car for? Because he knew
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: he could also have been whacked by another criminal who
• 5:46
  Speaker 5: had it in for him.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Very good points, Vincent. We've got to go for the news,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: but excellent points. Great call, as always. Hey, when we
