Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: You just heard the news.
- 0:02Speaker 2: Now you'll find out what it all means. Hey smart
- 0:06Speaker 2: simone on seven tenor Hey, well, I forget to We'll
- 0:12Speaker 2: get to the president's speech. It's gonna happen tonight. What's
- 0:15Speaker 2: that all about. We'll get to the fake Susie Wilds controversy.
- 0:19Speaker 2: We'll get to Nick Reiner. More details coming out, We'll
- 0:23Speaker 2: get to Milania. We'll get a Cardinal Dolan who we love,
- 0:28Speaker 2: maybe leaving. We'll get to that coming up in more. Oh,
- 0:32Speaker 2: Jack Smith and Merrick Garland. I've been caught again in
- 0:36Speaker 2: just total law fair corruption. We'll get to that just ahead.
- 0:41Speaker 2: So hey, let's just talk about the Nick Reiner for
- 0:44Speaker 2: a second now. If you were listening Monday and Tuesday
- 0:48Speaker 2: and we went over the story, what was known about
- 0:50Speaker 2: the case and the big problem with LA I don't
- 0:54Speaker 2: know why, but they're just not very forthcoming. The disc attorney,
- 0:58Speaker 2: the police chief, they speak, they hold prescot, but they
- 1:00Speaker 2: don't give you the details. So we've been depending on
- 1:04Speaker 2: police sources to leak stuff out. And the original story
- 1:09Speaker 2: we got leaked out being reported was that the daughter
- 1:14Speaker 2: who lives on the property in a guest house, heard
- 1:17Speaker 2: loud arguing and at some point went over to check
- 1:21Speaker 2: and found the bodies. Well, now there's a whole different
- 1:23Speaker 2: story being leaked out of the police department. So again,
- 1:26Speaker 2: these are from good police sources, but you know, I
- 1:30Speaker 2: can't guarantee everything because it's not official on the record.
- 1:34Speaker 2: But it's also the fog of war, you know, you
- 1:36Speaker 2: get all kinds of reports. But the latest version coming
- 1:40Speaker 2: out of the police department is the daughter lives in
- 1:44Speaker 2: the guest house and a masseuse comes to the winer's
- 1:49Speaker 2: house on Sundays to give them massages. The messuse could
- 1:53Speaker 2: not get in. They didn't answer, they didn't answer the gate.
- 1:56Speaker 2: House open the gate, they didn't answer. Thee didn't answer.
- 2:00Speaker 2: Anything highly unusual for them. So the masseuse got concerned,
- 2:04Speaker 2: called the daughter, who lives with a roommate, and the
- 2:07Speaker 2: two of them went over to check. And the story
- 2:10Speaker 2: is when the daughter walked in, she found Rob Reiner's
- 2:13Speaker 2: body there on the floor somewhere, obviously went into shock
- 2:19Speaker 2: and had the roommate call nine to one pint one.
- 2:22Speaker 2: The roommate calls the police, while the daughter calls Billy Crystal,
- 2:26Speaker 2: who it turns out is Rhiner's closest friend. Crystal and
- 2:29Speaker 2: his wife race over to the scene, and the police
- 2:33Speaker 2: arrive at about the same time, and the daughter and
- 2:37Speaker 2: roommate are waiting outside while the police. Everybody's in there now.
- 2:40Speaker 2: The daughter didn't know that the mother had also been stabbed.
- 2:44Speaker 2: The police had to come out and tell her it's
- 2:46Speaker 2: not just your father. Apparently he was outside the bedroom,
- 2:49Speaker 2: and when they went in the bedroom, they found the
- 2:51Speaker 2: mother dead, throat slit, and they had to tell the
- 2:55Speaker 2: daughter it's just a horrible, horrible, horrible story. I was
- 3:00Speaker 2: saying that it looked like rigor mortis had had started
- 3:04Speaker 2: setting in. That means they'd been dead for a few hours.
- 3:07Speaker 2: So the new version that's coming out of the police
- 3:11Speaker 2: department is that the night before they're at this Conan
- 3:14Speaker 2: O'Brien Christmas party, Nick Reiner gets into a huge fight
- 3:20Speaker 2: with his father. He'd been getting into fights with a
- 3:21Speaker 2: lot of people around the room, a lot of people
- 3:27Speaker 2: disturbed by his behavior, his appearance. He came in with
- 3:30Speaker 2: a sweatsuit and a hoodie over his head and at
- 3:34Speaker 2: one point got in a fights with people. We've got
- 3:37Speaker 2: into arguments with people, looked really really weird with people,
- 3:42Speaker 2: and some of them even left the party. They didn't
- 3:45Speaker 2: want to deal with him. Bill Hayter was one of them.
- 3:47Speaker 2: Hayter was talking to somebody and Nick Reiner came over
- 3:50Speaker 2: with that psycho look. I guess hater didn't know who
- 3:53Speaker 2: he was and said, excuse us, this is a private conversation,
- 3:57Speaker 2: chased him away. Well, then Nick Reiner came over and
- 3:59Speaker 2: just glared at him with a scary, scary looking stare,
- 4:03Speaker 2: so scary that the hater left the party. Nick Reinder
- 4:08Speaker 2: then got a huge screaming fight with his father in
- 4:13Speaker 2: the party. It got so out of control and alarmed
- 4:15Speaker 2: the other guests. It got so out of control that
- 4:17Speaker 2: Rob Ryer and his wife decided they should leave the party.
- 4:20Speaker 2: The crazy son, Nick Reiner left, So it now looks
- 4:25Speaker 2: like it's possible that it was later that night, in
- 4:28Speaker 2: the middle of the night, that he went and maybe
- 4:31Speaker 2: maybe that's when it happened stabbed his parents, because he
- 4:33Speaker 2: then at four point thirty in the morning showed up
- 4:36Speaker 2: at this hotel to check into the hotel. So if
- 4:39Speaker 2: he had later that night gone to the house, stabbed them,
- 4:42Speaker 2: killed them, obviously he wouldn't continue to stay in the
- 4:45Speaker 2: guest house right on the property, So that could be
- 4:48Speaker 2: why at four thirty in the morning he went and
- 4:49Speaker 2: checked into a hotel. Police found him the next day.
- 4:53Speaker 2: He was dressed all in dark clothes, wearing a baseball cap.
- 4:56Speaker 2: They had pictures of him, a description of him. He
- 4:59Speaker 2: was at a metro station, This is fifteen miles away
- 5:02Speaker 2: from the Reiner house. Two police cars saw him. They
- 5:06Speaker 2: pulled up, surrounded him. He didn't resist. He put his
- 5:09Speaker 2: arms up in surrender, and they've taken him into custody.
- 5:14Speaker 2: He's been in a protective custody. He's been on suicide watch.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Was supposed to appear in court yesterday. He's got a
- 5:21Speaker 2: top top LA lawyer, one of the biggest best LA lawyers,
- 5:25Speaker 2: the guy who had defended Harvey Weinstein's defended other high
- 5:30Speaker 2: profile murderers. Now here's the District Attorney of Los Angeles.
- 5:35Speaker 3: Their loss is beyond tragic, and we have we will
- 5:41Speaker 3: commit ourselves to bringing their murderer to justice.
- 5:44Speaker 2: Yeah, no, they could charge him. They're going to charge
- 5:46Speaker 2: him with two counts of murder, with aggravated this, aggravated that.
- 5:50Speaker 2: So he is facing the death penalty.
- 5:52Speaker 3: Rob Reiner was a brilliant actor and director, an iconic
- 5:56Speaker 3: force in our entertainment industry for decks. His wife, Michelle
- 6:02Speaker 3: Singer Reiner, was inequally iconic photography.
- 6:06Speaker 2: One thing I don't like it's the secretorny. He's great
- 6:08Speaker 2: with all these long speeches, but why has he given us.
- 6:11Speaker 2: He should be given us actual specific details of what happened.
- 6:14Speaker 3: Now, prosecuting these cases involving family members are some of
- 6:19Speaker 3: the most challenging and most heart wrenching cases that this
- 6:22Speaker 3: office faces because of the intimate and often brutal nature
- 6:26Speaker 3: of the crimes involved.
- 6:29Speaker 2: We know all this, but again not very open about details.
- 6:32Speaker 3: These charges will be two counts of first degree murder
- 6:36Speaker 3: with the special circumstance of multiple murders.
- 6:40Speaker 2: Yeah, so he will. Obviously he's got a really, really
- 6:44Speaker 2: top lawyer. I know exactly who's paying for it. But
- 6:48Speaker 2: hopefully he's convicted. Hopefully he's he's eligible for the death penalty.
- 6:52Speaker 2: I would give it to him if I run a jury,
- 6:54Speaker 2: but he's facing life in prison otherwise, and I'm sure
- 6:59Speaker 2: they'll be a convictim.
- 7:00Speaker 1: Our office will be filing charges against Nick Reiner, who
- 7:05Speaker 1: was accused of killing his parents, actor director Rob Reiner
- 7:08Speaker 1: and photographer producer Michelle Singer Reiner.
- 7:12Speaker 3: Our office.
- 7:14Speaker 2: Hopefully comes into court today. It was supposed to be yesterday.
- 7:18Speaker 2: They couldn't what they call medically clear and you have
- 7:20Speaker 2: to have a medical clearance to be taken to court,
- 7:23Speaker 2: just a procedural thing. So hopefully that happens today. Hopefully
- 7:26Speaker 2: he comes to court today and gets officially charged. Now,
- 7:30Speaker 2: the President Trump will make a big speech to the
- 7:34Speaker 2: nation tonight at nine o'clock. You know, years ago, it
- 7:37Speaker 2: was quite a big deal when the president did that.
- 7:39Speaker 2: They would call all the networks and ask for a
- 7:42Speaker 2: time at eight o'clock or nine o'clock or whenever they wanted,
- 7:46Speaker 2: and every network would stop what they were doing and
- 7:49Speaker 2: broadcast the president's speech. It was on all the networks,
- 7:52Speaker 2: which meant in nineteen seventy eight or nineteen eighty seven
- 7:57Speaker 2: or nineteen ninety three, when they put it on all
- 7:59Speaker 2: the networks, it meant sixty million people would see it. Well,
- 8:02Speaker 2: nobody watches network TV anymore, so if you got all
- 8:06Speaker 2: three networks to carry your speech, you'd be lucky. If
- 8:08Speaker 2: you got eight million people, it's a much much smaller audience.
- 8:12Speaker 2: And if you get the cable networks, well maybe then
- 8:14Speaker 2: you get six or seven million. But when you total
- 8:18Speaker 2: it all up. It's just not that big an audience anymore. Now,
- 8:22Speaker 2: these networks have all agreed tonight at nine o'clock to
- 8:25Speaker 2: carry the speech. It's standard procedure that when a White
- 8:28Speaker 2: House ask you for the time, you carry the speech. Now,
- 8:31Speaker 2: with Trump, you know it's different. They might not. However,
- 8:33Speaker 2: I think the network's are a little afraid of Trump.
- 8:35Speaker 2: You know, he does come after them, he does sue them,
- 8:38Speaker 2: he does threaten them. So I think they're afraid not
- 8:41Speaker 2: to carry the speech. So we'll see. I will carry
- 8:44Speaker 2: the speech. We'll have it tonight at nine. Now. Obviously Fox,
- 8:48Speaker 2: very responsible network, will carry it. I would think CNN
- 8:51Speaker 2: will carry it because they got their panel of thirty
- 8:54Speaker 2: two liberals who want to trash him after the speech. Now,
- 8:57Speaker 2: MS now is not a really it's not really a
- 9:00Speaker 2: network anymore. It's not part of NBC. They threw MSNBC out,
- 9:05Speaker 2: took their name off it, so it's just a little
- 9:07Speaker 2: mom and pop shop.
- 9:08Speaker 3: Now.
- 9:08Speaker 2: I know they can do whatever the hell they want.
- 9:09Speaker 2: Will they carry it, I don't know. I don't know.
- 9:13Speaker 2: We'll see. The President can threaten them, but there's not
- 9:17Speaker 2: much he can threaten them with. They're not really anything anymore.
- 9:20Speaker 2: But the speech tonight, the agenda is nobody knows. It's
- 9:24Speaker 2: being kept secret. I would imagine the one thing we
- 9:28Speaker 2: do now, he'll go over his accomplishments, a couple of
- 9:32Speaker 2: things he might want to do now. Normally you wait
- 9:34Speaker 2: till the State of the Union speech in January, but
- 9:37Speaker 2: I guess he feels the need to do it now. Also,
- 9:39Speaker 2: it's good to do it right now, tonight, right before
- 9:42Speaker 2: the holidays, because everybody's going to get all distracted for
- 9:45Speaker 2: a couple of weeks. But one of the things he'll do.
- 9:47Speaker 2: They created this whole fake myth of affordability, crisis, economy
- 9:52Speaker 2: and crisis. The economy is doing a hell of a
- 9:55Speaker 2: lot better than last year. It's not perfect, but the
- 9:58Speaker 2: improvement over the last year is amazing. Inflation hitting nine percent.
- 10:03Speaker 2: Under Biden it averaged five point six percent. Well it's
- 10:07Speaker 2: down to two point five percent. There's been a huge
- 10:10Speaker 2: improvement in inflation. The job numbers are up, and actually
- 10:14Speaker 2: up more than the numbers actually show because under Biden,
- 10:18Speaker 2: when you saw those jobs, there were government jobs. They
- 10:20Speaker 2: were hiring government people to make the job numbers go up.
- 10:23Speaker 2: In this case, it's all private sector jobs, So you've
- 10:26Speaker 2: had a big improvement. Gas prices are down all over
- 10:29Speaker 2: the place, not New York or California where the locals
- 10:33Speaker 2: are keeping the gas prices high, but the gas prices
- 10:35Speaker 2: are averaging like two dollars and fifty cents. You know,
- 10:38Speaker 2: in one state, I think it's Colorado, they finally went
- 10:40Speaker 2: under two dollars. Oil is fifty five dollars a barrel,
- 10:43Speaker 2: down from one hundred and ten. So gas prices everything
- 10:48Speaker 2: is better, much better, But people don't know that because
- 10:50Speaker 2: of the fake news. But he'll have a chance to
- 10:54Speaker 2: go over the actual numbers tonight. I imagine he'll do that.
- 10:58Speaker 2: He'll probably talk about the narco terrorists and those boats,
- 11:01Speaker 2: blowing those boats up. It's something people like. They really
- 11:06Speaker 2: like the idea of wiping out the drug supply and
- 11:09Speaker 2: stopping it. Obviously, he'll go over the border, and the
- 11:12Speaker 2: actual numbers of the success at closing the border are
- 11:16Speaker 2: pretty amazing, So he'll go over that, and I don't
- 11:19Speaker 2: know what else we'll see. Hey. The other thing, if
- 11:24Speaker 2: you're watching that crazy MS NOW or CNN or the
- 11:28Speaker 2: late night shows, you know all the left wing cooks.
- 11:31Speaker 2: All they're talking about is Susie Wiles, the White House
- 11:34Speaker 2: Chief of Staff, very disciplined, doesn't ever do interviews, stays
- 11:39Speaker 2: under the radar, very quiet, very respected. All they're talking about.
- 11:44Speaker 2: She gave an interview to Vanity Fair and she said
- 11:47Speaker 2: all kinds of things. She was so blunt and said,
- 11:50Speaker 2: you know, jd Vance is a conspiracy theorist and all
- 11:53Speaker 2: of that. Well, nobody in the White House is upset
- 11:56Speaker 2: about it for two reasons. One, nobody reads Vanity Fair.
- 12:00Speaker 2: It's a tiny audience. The only people that read it
- 12:02Speaker 2: are the ms now people that live in the echo
- 12:05Speaker 2: chamber are the only ones that read it. And Also,
- 12:08Speaker 2: it's not an issue anywhere. It's a Beltway DC issue,
- 12:13Speaker 2: It's a CNN ms NOW issue. This is not the
- 12:16Speaker 2: American public. This is these left wing kooks who live
- 12:18Speaker 2: in this echo chamber. For them, it's a parlor game.
- 12:21Speaker 2: They're all talking about this Susie Wilds story. The old
- 12:25Speaker 2: Washington test, the old DC test is if you went
- 12:29Speaker 2: to Green Bay, Wisconsin and went into a diner, would
- 12:31Speaker 2: anybody be talking about it. No, there's nobody in a
- 12:35Speaker 2: diner in Green Bay, Wisconsin discussing Susie Wilds or the
- 12:38Speaker 2: Vanity Fair piece, so it is totally meanless with the public.
- 12:42Speaker 2: Even the people she criticized just laughed it off. She said,
- 12:48Speaker 2: the JD. Vance has always been a conspiracy theorist. Here
- 12:50Speaker 2: is Vance yesterday. I haven't looked at the article.
- 12:52Speaker 4: I of course have heard about it, but conspiracy theorist.
- 12:57Speaker 4: Sometimes I am a conspiracy theorist, but I only believe
- 12:59Speaker 4: in the conspiracy theories that are true.
- 13:05Speaker 2: Presidents spoke about said he couldn't care less about the article.
- 13:07Speaker 2: It meant nothing.
- 13:08Speaker 4: Here's the Caroline leve This is, unfortunately another example of
- 13:12Speaker 4: disingenuous reporting, where you have a reporter who took the
- 13:17Speaker 4: chief of staff's words wildly out of context, did not
- 13:20Speaker 4: include the context those conversations were had within. And then further,
- 13:24Speaker 4: I think the most egregious part of this article was
- 13:27Speaker 4: the bias of omission.
- 13:29Speaker 2: Yeah, well there was a lot of that. And this guy,
- 13:31Speaker 2: why would you do an interview with this guy? Well,
- 13:33Speaker 2: this guy's supposedly a respected journalist who has a long
- 13:36Speaker 2: history of doing profiles of White House chiefs of staff,
- 13:40Speaker 2: all the great White Houses. He's done massive profiles of
- 13:44Speaker 2: the chiefs of staff. So that's why she did it.
- 13:46Speaker 2: But he's a very biased reporter. If you read them all,
- 13:50Speaker 2: it's hysterical. Every Democratic white House, the chief of staff
- 13:53Speaker 2: is a genius. It's a glowing piece about how wonderfully
- 13:56Speaker 2: is every Republican White House. The chief of staff is terrible,
- 14:00Speaker 2: He's awful. Everything's in caase so pretty obvious slanted bias. Hey,
- 14:05Speaker 2: we'll get to Jack Smith coming up. This is pretty
- 14:09Speaker 2: interesting the raid on mar a Lago. You know, there
- 14:11Speaker 2: were no classified documents at mar Lago. It was all
- 14:14Speaker 2: a fake, made up hoax. In the end, they did
- 14:17Speaker 2: find thirty five classified documents. If you put them in
- 14:20Speaker 2: a folder. The folder is one inch thick one inch,
- 14:25Speaker 2: So what the hell were those five hundred boxes in
- 14:27Speaker 2: the pictures each None of them contained any classified documents,
- 14:30Speaker 2: and there was no reason to do the raid. Emails
- 14:33Speaker 2: have been discovered and released in Congress. They've released them.
- 14:40Speaker 2: It turns out the FBI itself said there's absolutely nothing
- 14:45Speaker 2: to justify his search. There's no real source that there's
- 14:47Speaker 2: classified documents there. It was one guy in the Archives Department.
- 14:51Speaker 2: They couldn't confirm it with anybody, and they kept telling
- 14:54Speaker 2: them Justice Department, there's no justification for a search. But
- 14:58Speaker 2: it turns out, according to these emails, were ordered to
- 15:01Speaker 2: do it. The Biden administration ordered them. We don't care
- 15:04Speaker 2: if you don't know. I mean, just you're going to do
- 15:06Speaker 2: this raid. Now, there could be criminal charges over this.
- 15:11Speaker 2: President Trump could sue, he'd have a great lawsuit against
- 15:13Speaker 2: the Department of Justice and they'd have to pay him
- 15:16Speaker 2: a ton of money. But he could also find there
- 15:19Speaker 2: could be criminal charges here. Now Jacksmith had not yet
- 15:22Speaker 2: been appointed on this, but it could be Merrick Garland.
- 15:26Speaker 2: For the first time ever, he's possibly in some legal
- 15:29Speaker 2: jeopardy ordering this when even the FBI was saying there's
- 15:34Speaker 2: no justification for a search. Hey, some terrible, terrible news.
- 15:38Speaker 2: It's not confirmed, but Cardinal Dolan may be leaving. We
- 15:41Speaker 2: love Cardinal Dolan. He's seventy five. You know, when you're
- 15:45Speaker 2: seventy five, you're supposed to resign and retire as the
- 15:48Speaker 2: cardinal seventy five. It's a mandatory thing in the church.
- 15:51Speaker 2: He turned seventy five last year turned into his resignation.
- 15:56Speaker 2: But sometimes they just don't take it for a while.
- 15:59Speaker 2: And you remember, the pope died and we had a
- 16:01Speaker 2: new pope, so that put everything on hold for a while,
- 16:05Speaker 2: and sometimes they cannot accept the resignation right away. But
- 16:08Speaker 2: there's rumors and word coming out of the archdiocese that
- 16:12Speaker 2: they're going to accept the resignation. Who would be the
- 16:16Speaker 2: new cardinal, Well, it looks like according again according to sources,
- 16:20Speaker 2: so it's not one hundred percent, it's the bishop from
- 16:23Speaker 2: Chicago's name is Hicks. Very good resume for this sort
- 16:28Speaker 2: of stuff, including a lot of management experience, which is important.
- 16:32Speaker 2: So keep an eye on that. Hey, we'll take some
- 16:35Speaker 2: calls next. Eight hundred three to two one zero seven
- 16:39Speaker 2: ten is the number. Eight hundred three to two one
- 16:42Speaker 2: zero seven ten.
