  Speaker 1: The Mark Simone Show on 710WOR.
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: Hey, it's hour number two.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: We start at nine o'clock now. Hour number two. A
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: lot to get to this hour. Now, latest on Iran,
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: it might be Scott Besson that ends up winning this
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: war for us. We've done tremendous economic damage to them already.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: And obviously we've completely eliminated their military. They no longer
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: have an air force. They no longer have a Navy.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: They don't have much of an army left. They got
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: a couple of missiles and a few drones. That's all
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: they got. No military of any kind to speak of.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: And then the economy is completely shut down right now.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: No oil. We have oil coming in and out of
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: the Straits. We use the Southern corridor along the coast
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: of Oman, but Iran unable to ship any oil. And
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: the crackdown now begins trying to just shut down their
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: entire economy. Besant will order all the banks to no
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: longer do anything with Iran. And he's going to the
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: G20 summit where he'll talk to world leaders about putting
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: sanctions on Iran, freezing them out of the banking system
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: and everything else. The currency will collapse. Inflation is already 90%
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: in Iran. Besant, pretty good at this stuff. Because these
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: jobs are going to Americans. Now, when it comes to jobs,
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: that's the other thing. You get rid of all these migrants, illegals,
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: not immigrants. We like immigrants, but migrants, illegals that are here.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: You free up a lot of jobs. Because these jobs
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: are going to Americans.
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: Like, we have seen over 2 million jobs created for Americans,
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: and we've seen over a million illegals leave the workforce.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: And guess what? The laws of supply and demand still work.
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: When you take the illegals out of the workforce, working-class
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: wages go up. When you send them back home, rents
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: go down.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there was always this myth, well, they do the
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: jobs Americans won't do. That's not true. Americans did all
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: those jobs for millions of years. What they do is
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: they'll do the jobs for one-third the price and put
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: Americans out of work. So, yeah. The jobs are back.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: The economy doing pretty good. It's not the greatest economy
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: in history, but the economy is doing very well right now.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: Yet the media trying to convince everybody that we're in
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: economic collapse. The economy is on the brink. Everybody is suffering.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: That's not true at all. Inflation is relatively low. Employment
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: is high. Income into the average family is up like $ 2, 000.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: Wages are up. The economy is doing pretty well, but
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: you don't really have actual news media anymore. They just
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: try to slant and distort and convince you. They did
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: that with George H.W. Bush in his final year. He
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: was getting ready for the race against Bill Clinton, and
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: they just broadcast day and night that the economy was
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: in terrible trouble. The economy was awful. And if you
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: do this day and night, it was easier back in 1999, 2000,
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: because there was no real Internet yet then. So you
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: could convince everybody the economy was terrible and they better vote.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: It wasn't true at all. If you watch the CBS
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Evening News with Dan Rather back then, every night they
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: would open with the headlines and they'd say, and coming up,
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: our feature, economy in crisis. You'd see this every night.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: And coming up, our special feature, Economy in Crisis. Every
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: night you'd see this leading up to the election. Then
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: one day Bill Clinton wins. You never heard that feature again.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: That night the feature disappeared. It was just to affect
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: the election. As I mentioned last hour, President Trump calling
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: on the FCC to go after Kristen Welker for broadcasting
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: false information. A lot of lies happen on those Sunday shows.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: A lot of fake stuff is said.
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: So.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: And you got these guys like, take George Stephanopoulos. They
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: try to convince you they're news people. They're journalists. They're not.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: They're political operatives. They're political advocates. They're pushing a political
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: point of view. They're propagandists. You know, this Don Lemon case.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Don Lemon, they're going to go after Don Lemon for,
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: you know, going into that church, menacing people, terrorizing people
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: in the church, coming after them. And here's the Attorney
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: General Todd Blanch. Now, listen to Stephanopoulos. It doesn't say,
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: could you explain the case to us? He's advocating. He's
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: arguing the case against prosecuting Don Lemon. So when do
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: you believe that Mr.
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: Lemon crossed the line from reporting on what was going
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: on to criminal activity? Conveniently missing from what you just showed, George,
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: is the appellate court and a judge on the appellate
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: court who said just a few days later there was
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: clearly probable cause and it wasn't even a close question.
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: And by the way, a grand jury, which is what
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: our system has set up to determine whether probable cause exists,
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: concluded that there was probable cause.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so Stephanopoulos trying to con the audience. He tried
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: to make it sound like there was no reason to
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: go after this guy. It was just some crazy thing
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: you came up with. He's convincing the audience. Why would
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: you go after, forgot to mention, a federal judge ruled
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: on it, a grand jury ruled on it. It's not
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Todd Blanche. A court, a judge, a jury, grand jury.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: ruled there was reason to go after Lemon. It looked
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: like he committed a crime.
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: But nobody in this country should feel comfortable storming into
• 5:43
  Speaker 5: a church while it's ongoing and disrupting that church service
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: and thinking that we're just going to stand by and
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: let that happen because there is a statute that does
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: not allow that to happen. It doesn't matter if you
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: happen to be a former CNN journalist. It doesn't matter
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: if you're a rioter. It doesn't matter if you think
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: you're peacefully protesting. You are not allowed.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: To do that. Yeah, let's be honest. Don Lemon wasn't
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: there in Minnesota to report on anything. He was there
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: to advocate. He was there just to push his crazy
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: politics on people. Hey, in Michigan, you got this Abdul
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: El-Sayed running. So we know he's an anti-Semite. We know
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: he's anti-Israel. But he's been taking racist swipes at Usha Vance,
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: the second lady, wife of Vice President Vance. He's been
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: going after her. She's Indian American. And he's really been
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: hitting her hard, making fun of her. And he said,
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: so I guess Vance's father is no longer with us,
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: he said. But do we think J.D. would take Usha
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: with him back in time to meet Papa? I guess
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: that's what Vance in his book said he called his father.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: So he's implying that... The father would be repulsed that
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: he married an Indian-American. It's all kinds of racist nonsense
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: from El-Sayed. But the good news is it's backfiring badly
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: in Michigan, where there are 130,000 Indian-Americans, and they're crucial
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: voters there in some districts. So they're up in arms
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: about Vance. And a lot of women are turning on him.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: They don't like the fact that he went after the
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: wife and attacked her for her nationality. Not a good
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: look for Vance, so he's getting a lot of pushback there. Now,
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: this is a big state, and it's very important to
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: female vote there. Michigan, it's a swing state. Third biggest
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: when it comes to female voting, female voter participation. Sixty-nine
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: percent of women turn out in Michigan, so he's got
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: a big problem there. He's also got a very, very
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: tiny slight lead over Mike Rogers, but that should evaporate
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: pretty soon. But again, he's gone after Usha a few times. Now,
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: they're sending Vance to Michigan to campaign against J.D. Vance.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: He's from Ohio. Ohio, Michigan, they border each other. It's
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: all the same place, although there's that Michigan-Ohio state rivalry,
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: but still, Ohio, Michigan, they're pretty much the same. So Ohio, J.D.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: Vance is from there. He speaks the language. And he'll
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: be campaigning against El Sayed. And he probably will do
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: him a lot of damage when they're, you know, he's
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: also got the problems with all his Hassan Piker stuff,
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: who is an ugly, dirty, dirty anti-Semite. In fact, you
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: got Jamie Raskin was there trying to campaign for El Sayed.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: Debbie Dingle, who's an old, old Michigan Democrat. They tried
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: to ask her about Hassan Piker, screaming at the reporter,
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: don't ask me about Hassan Piker. That's not what this
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: is about. Yes, it is. It's exactly what this is about.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: It's what it's about. This guy's perceived as a racist,
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: an anti-Semite, hanging around with anti-Semites. It's exactly what it's about.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: So the midterms, I know, and this is the other thing,
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: the media will convince you that Democrats are way out
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: in the lead for the midterms. It's not true at all.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: The way they do that, it's just like Stephanopoulos. They
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: leave out half the story. They'll give you some facts,
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: but leave out the other facts of the story. So
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: you'll see this all over the place. They do it
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: all the time on MSNBC. They'll put up Trump's poll numbers.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: Look how low his approval ratings are. Look at that.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: That is, look how low his approval ratings are. They
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: never mention the Democrats. The Democrats are much lower approval
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: ratings than Trump. Trump's approval ratings are a little low.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: Democrats are the lowest approval ratings ever in history. They're
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: setting records in polls. for lowest approval rates. The only
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: guy that does it is, believe it or not, is
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: this guy on CNN, Harry Enten, their pollster. Trump even
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: praising him over the weekend on Truth Social, saying good
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: for him. You know, he actually, actually gives him a
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: drop of credibility. He's the only guy that actually reports
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: all the poll numbers. They con you on everywhere else.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: that Trump's low, never mentioning that Democrats are 100 times lower.
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: So right now, it looks pretty good for Republicans in
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: the midterms. Also remember, a guy like Trump, very, very
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: concerned about his legacy. He knows it's his final two years.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: He knows when he leaves, they're going to try to
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: tear him apart. Legacy is important. So this is a
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: big thing for him, winning these midterms, because historically, you
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: always lose the midterms when you're president. You get elected,
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: and then two years later, You lose the midterms. That's
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: always the way. It happens to every Democrat, every Republican. Rare,
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: rare exception. So this is part of his legacy, to
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: defy the odds and win the midterms. So you're going
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: to see him. It hasn't really started yet. It's October. September, October,
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: you're going to see him really pour it on, really
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: hit the gas, trying to win those midterms. And he
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: probably will pull it off. Now, you know, in Canada,
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: where they're all upset about Lake America... In fact, we
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: find out now that, well, Google has already changed it
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: to Lake America on Google Maps. But we find out
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: now that the White House has also asked Apple to
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: change it to Lake of America on Apple Maps. Now,
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: you say, well, that's crazy. They shouldn't cave in. Well,
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: you know, Google may be right. Secretary of the Interior
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: Doug Burgum explaining that when it comes to these names,
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: they're determined by the Department of Interior. which runs the
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: Board of Geographic Names. It's part of the U.S. Geological Survey,
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: and it's the official naming body of the United States government.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: So if they declare it's the Gulf of America or
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: Lake America, well, then that's it. It is officially. Now
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: you get a Democrat in, he'll change it back, but
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: apparently they've asked Apple, who's a little late on this, Now,
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: when it comes to Canada, I know you feel bad.
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: Why aren't you picking on Canada? Where they're our most
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: beloved ally? Eh, you know what? Oh, they're okay. But
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: they're pretty bad in Canada, too. You know, the big network.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: They got one big network, the CBC, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: The CBC. That's what everybody watches. That's their nightly news.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: That's their Sunday shows. That's their network for news, the CBC. Well,
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: this came out. late last week, that there was a
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: memo sent to everybody at the CBC. The CBC News
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: Senior Director of Journalistic Standards and Public Trust sent out
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: a memo to everybody there. September 11th coming up, there'll
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: be a lot of reporting on September 11th. They were
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: all told in this memo, here's the exact quote, Do
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: not refer to the September 11th attacks as terrorist attacks.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: That's right. That's how bad the CBC is. They will
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: not call September 11th a terrorist attack. The memo from
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: their Director of Journalistic Standards and Public Trust, the memo
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: said they are to be described as hijackings that led
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: to passenger jet crashes. Okay, there was a hijacking, but
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: it was not a When you say a jet crash,
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: it sounds like it was an accident, an accidentally crash.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: These were not accidents. These were deliberate terrorist attacks. So
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: that is about the lowest in fake news that any
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: network could ever sink, not calling them terrorist attacks. But
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: that's the CBC. So don't feel a lot of sympathy
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: for Canada. Hey, Caroline Levitt stepped down as White House
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: press secretary yesterday. You know, she's only 29. Yeah, she
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: was the youngest White House press secretary ever. She's only 29.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: She's from New Hampshire originally. Now, she's got a standing
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: offer to be on Fox News. She's got all kinds
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: of TV offers, radio offers. But she said, not going
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: to do that. She said she really did leave. This
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: is the first person in history, by the way. You know,
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: they always say, I'm leaving to spend more time with
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: my family. This is the first person in history who's
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: actually telling the truth. She's got a two-year-old and she
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: just had a baby who's four months now. And she
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: really wants to spend time with her kids. She's married
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: to a wealthy guy. She's married to, he's older. He's like,
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: I think 25 years older, but good guy. And she
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: wants to be with her children. She wants to raise
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: her children. She's been invited by The View to be
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: a guest. The View never allows any Republicans to We're conservatives.
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: No Trump people ever allowed on The View. This is
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: a rare exception. Now, this could be because the administration
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: has been coming after fake news and talking about the
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: FCC going after them. So maybe The View has been
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: ordered to try to put a little balance, just a
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: drop of balance in there. So maybe that's why they've
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: invited her on there. I doubt if she'll do it.
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: I mean, why do it? If you're going to go
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: do a TV show. At least go on a classy
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: highbrow show, not the low IQ show with those old crows,
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: those clucking hens sitting there. Hey, we'll take some calls next.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: 800-321-0710 is the number. We'll take some calls next. If
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: you haven't called before, we love new callers.
• 15:42

  Speaker 4: 710WOR.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: Hey.
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: Hey, nobody's calling. I've never had that happen before. I
• 16:00

• 16:03
  Speaker 2: Nobody's calling. What's going on here? 800-321-0710 is the number.
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: We get calls from all over the country normally. 800-321-0710.
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: So if you're one of those people, I could never
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: get through. Well, there's nobody calling right now.
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: 800-321-0710.
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: Give us a call. Hey, happy birthday to Warren Buffett.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: He's 96 today. 96 years old today. Warren Buffett still
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: goes to work every day. uh, he, uh, the only
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: problem he, uh, you know, he was just a simple guy.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: He has a 12 year old car. He drives himself
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: to work every day. He goes to a McDonald's. He, uh,
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: he has a two, two orders. One is the, uh, uh,
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: the egg McMuffin. And then the other, I forgot the
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: other one flips a coin.
• 17:01
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: Diet Coke all day and night. Now the only problem
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: is At 96, his eyes aren't so good. He can't
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: drive anymore. Last time I talked to him, he said
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: that's the one thing that's killing him. He's got to
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: have a driver now. He's a simple guy. He doesn't
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: like a driver. But McDonald's every day. He said he
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: has the diet of a 12-year-old. McDonald's, Diet Coke, candy
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: all day. Look at this. Now we've got 12,000 calls.
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: Now we don't have enough time for all these calls.
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: Let's go to Gene in Bacon, New York. Gene, how
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: are you doing?
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: I'm doing great.
• 17:35
  Speaker 6: You know, I wish that you and I could sit
• 17:37
  Speaker 6: down for about an hour and just talk.
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: Oh, God.
• 17:40
  Speaker 7: Yeah, that sounds great.
• 17:42
  Speaker 6: Huh?
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: But anyway.
• 17:44
  Speaker 6: What would we talk about? Well, about my father, who
• 17:50
  Speaker 6: was a Democrat.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Fascinating.
• 17:52
  Speaker 6: Who came along in the... came along in the depression.
• 17:56
  Speaker 6: He used to write legislation for Carter.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: Let me just explain something off the air. I never
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: talk about politics ever with anybody ever. No politics, no politics.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: So what else would we know?
• 18:07
  Speaker 6: Well, I do want to say something that I wish
• 18:11
  Speaker 6: that you and Donald Trump might talk about. Um, the,
• 18:15
  Speaker 6: the destruction of the North rim lodge out in Arizona
• 18:20
  Speaker 6: burned down about a year and a half ago. And,
• 18:23
  Speaker 6: Has he mentioned anything about the rebuilding of that building,
• 18:28
  Speaker 6: of the lodge?
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: And what burned down? What kind of lodge? I don't
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: even know about this.
• 18:32
  Speaker 6: Well, the tourist lodge on the north rim of the
• 18:35
  Speaker 6: Grand Canyon. I was there years ago as a youngster,
• 18:39
  Speaker 6: and he would be able to rebuild that thing and
• 18:43
  Speaker 6: bring some creativity to it. It was a rustic building.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but you got to remember, if he rebuilds it,
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: it's going to have gold all over it. It's going to,
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: you know. He might not be the guy for that lodge.
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: But it's a good point. Yeah, he should get on that.
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: But maybe let somebody else do the decorating on that one.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: Let's go to Vic in Pennsylvania. Vic, how are you doing?
• 19:06
  Speaker 6: I'm doing fine, Mark.
• 19:08
  Speaker 7: Mark, I just wanted to bring out, when you were
• 19:09
  Speaker 7: on the prior radio station, you were on all the time.
• 19:12
  Speaker 7: I think you set the Guinness Book of World Records
• 19:16
  Speaker 7: for being on so much. And I would listen to
• 19:19
  Speaker 7: you constantly. So three hours, I want you to do
• 19:23
  Speaker 7: another three hours.
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: Well, some days I fill in for Hannity, so that's
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: three plus three. That'll be six. All right, thanks. Yeah,
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: all of us here, Sean Hannity, Rush, we were all
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: at the other station. What does Sean call it? Our ex-wife.
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: That's the other station. It was our ex-wife. Let's go
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: to Scrapper. Is that your name? Scrapper in Connecticut?
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: I'm here, yeah. You're excellent show you're excellent they don't
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: seem to want to talk about the budget and cutting
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: the budget that's the big problem they avoid discussing that
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: who does The city of New York, especially.
• 20:06
  Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: Well, of course, they're going to avoid that. I'm not
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: going to mention that. That's what they do for a living.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: Spend our money. You know, that's the he's right. He's
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: absolutely right. That is the single biggest problem. You can
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: solve everything in one second. Just stop overspending. The government overspends.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: You know, we pay like a thousand percent more than
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: everything costs for whatever it is. Roads, potholes, subways. 1,000%
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: more than you're supposed to spend than it actually costs.
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: The $ 108 billion city budget could actually easily be $ 40 billion.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: And if you spent the money legitimately, you'd have better service.
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: Everybody's taxes could be cut like 65%. Just stop wasting
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: money with all the fraud, waste, bloat, all of that stuff.
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: Let's go to John in Long Island. John, how are
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: you doing?
• 20:55
  Speaker 6: Hey, good morning, Mark.
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: Yes, John.
• 20:58
  Speaker 6: Okay, just following up on something you brought up last week, Mark,
• 21:02
  Speaker 6: regarding the Kennedy Center and Trump. I'm an architect and
• 21:06
  Speaker 6: also a construction manager. And I think the best thing
• 21:11
  Speaker 6: is to tear it down because when you start to
• 21:13
  Speaker 6: remediate something like that, I worked on projects where you
• 21:17
  Speaker 6: spend half a million dollars just on a specious abatement.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 21:21
  Speaker 6: Okay, and then like at the end of the day,
• 21:23
  Speaker 6: you wind up spending more on a retro building than
• 21:26
  Speaker 6: to tear it and rebuild it.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: Well, it's kind of historic. It's got kind of a
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: landmark sort of a thing to it. You can't really
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: tear it.
• 21:35
  Speaker 6: Take part of it. Take part of it and just, hey,
• 21:37
  Speaker 6: here's a dedication to John F. Kennedy. And then restore
• 21:41
  Speaker 6: the rest of the thing.
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: Well, apparently the problem, because I've talked to the people there,
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: just to get to the bottom of it, it was
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: built section by section. They kept adding on to it.
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: And when they'd add on, they didn't quite connect everything right.
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: And there was a pipe system that was connected to
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: another pipe system. And the real problem, the reason it's
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: collapsing with what they called water intrusion. You know what
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: can happen when you got leaks and water everywhere and
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: it just weakens everything. So there's parts of the building
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: close to collapse. That's why when they say they got
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: to shut it down, that's why it's two years. I mean,
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: they have to rebuild almost the entire building. Happened to
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: the White House at one time in the late 1940s.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: I remember Harry Truman had a daughter who played the piano.
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: So they put a big piano there. up in the residence.
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: And as she's playing, it started to fall through the floor.
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: The whole floor of the White House residence started crumbling.
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: And they found out the same thing, that the whole
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: White House had to be gutted, literally, the entire White House.
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: Truman had to move out for two years while they
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: rebuilt the entire interior. One more call real fast. Let's
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: go to Eric in the Bronx. Eric, how are you doing?
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: Hey, Mark, how you doing?
• 22:51
  Speaker 8: Long time listening to you, especially when you were playing music.
• 22:55
  Speaker 8: But when I was listening last week with all these
• 23:00
  Speaker 8: socialists winning these tickets in New York, why can't we
• 23:05
  Speaker 8: do what they did in Buffalo when the mayor was
• 23:08
  Speaker 8: running and the socialists beat him and they did the
• 23:10
  Speaker 8: write-in ballots? And in the end, he ended up winning.
• 23:14
  Speaker 8: Why can't we do that here?
• 23:16
  Speaker 6: Oh, right.
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: We're going to do it. You didn't say what it is.
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: What do we do?
• 23:19
  Speaker 8: Write-in ballots. These socialists run, so why can't we do
• 23:22
  Speaker 8: the write-in ballots?
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: Well, you can do a write-in ballot. You can do it.
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: It's just.
• 23:25
  Speaker 8: Yeah, but I mean, why aren't we doing a big,
• 23:27
  Speaker 8: massive campaign?
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: Well, one of the reasons, we don't have a Republican
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: Party in New York. I mean, there's a little one,
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: but it doesn't have any manpower. It doesn't have any
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: ground game. It doesn't have much staff. It's really, that's
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: the problem. The Republicans don't have a machine here in
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: New York. It's just... A bunch of clubs, the Republican
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: Club of this, the Republican Club of that. And it's
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: just old ladies who throw cocktail parties, take pictures with celebrities,
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: post it on their Instagram. They don't actually do anything
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: to help any campaigns. Hey, when we come back, the
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: greatest columnist in America, Michael Goodwin. We'll talk to him
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: next on 710WOR. Live from the WOR LifeVac studios. Well,
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: here's the best columnist in America, Michael Goodwin. You can
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: read his column every Sunday and every Wednesday in the
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: New York Post. And all of his columns are up
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: on the New York Post website if you want to
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: read them. And he's with us now. Michael Goodwin, how
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: are you doing?
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: Good morning, Mark.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: Hey, I love this column about Hakeem Jeffries meets with
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: Jared Kushner. And apparently they have a long relationship. He
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: was their first term. So why would the Democrats melt
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: down over this meeting?
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: Well, there's no logical answer, Mark. It's really, I think,
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: just a sign of the radicalization of the Democratic Party.
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: Of course, the progressive members are driving that, but the
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: other members are quaking in fear of it. And so
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: when Jeffries dares to meet with a the devil, the
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: representative of the devil, you have to erupt. You have
• 25:10
  Speaker 4: to accuse Jeffries of making a mistake because otherwise you're
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: seen as being soft on Trump and you're being mainstream
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: and you're being establishment. You're being a corporate Democrat and
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: you're taking money from AIPAC. All these things just fall
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: off the lips of the radicals and puts Jeffries on
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: defense for simply holding a member, holding a meeting with
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: President Trump's son-in-law and advisor.
• 25:43
  Speaker 6: I mean, it's looting tunes.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, don't these guys, these Schumers and Jeffries and these types,
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: trying to appease them and bow down to them, don't
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: they realize these socialists, they're going to throw them overboard
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: at some point?
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: Oh, sure. Look, I mean, that's the... I write about
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: the Justice Democrats email, which talks about Jeffries and Schumer
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: just being the old mainstream corporate Democrats. And they want
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: to throw them over. Look, they don't have the numbers yet.
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: But what they do have in our system is if
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: you can stymie the majority, even if Democrats take the House,
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: will the majority... stick together or will it be a
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: civil war in the Democrats? I mean, I think that's
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: what we're witnessing right now.
• 26:39
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: Hey, you quote, um, uh, this podcast, Jared Kushner has
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: no actual government job. That's not true. He's the chief negotiator.
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: That's a pretty big job.
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah. I guess he, he's not on the, the white house, uh,
• 26:56
  Speaker 4: roster of paid employees or cons from firms. I mean,
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: the president has lots of leeway. So, and obviously Jared
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: Kushner has his ear and it came out later and
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: didn't get much attention. But the meeting was because Kushner
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: and Jeffries had worked together on prison reforms in Trump's
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: first term, which is a big issue. For both, but
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: the Democrats quickly forgot that because Kushner is a Trump person,
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: therefore you cannot talk to him. I mean, even the
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: crazy James Carvel broke new ground in that front.
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: But, I don't know, these socialists, they just want, what
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: do they just want? Revolution, blood? What are they really
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: after if they don't want to talk? Yeah, yeah.
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: Go on power. It starts with power, right?
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: And I think.
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: That's what the Democratic Party has failed to reckon with.
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: They tried to meet them partway on some things. I mean,
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: take Kathy Hochul, for example, in New York, how the
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: governor has gone along with Mayor Montani, one of the socialists,
• 28:11
  Speaker 4: probably the highest ranking socialist. And what has Hochul done
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: with that? She's ended up just doing dumb things. that
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: could backfire on her and her election. So if you
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: try to try to modify or work with the socialists,
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: they're going to just call out to you and you're
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: never going to be able to satisfy them. They don't
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: want to fix the system. They want to destroy the
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: system and that mainstream Democrats, what's left of them have
• 28:46
  Speaker 4: to come to grips with that reality.
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: Hey, when they talk about seizing the means of production,
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: As soon as they get a hold of the means
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: of production, all they do is collapse. I mean, these
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: grocery stores, Mamdani's grocery store, we'll never see these. Everything
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: he proposes never actually happens. How would they control production?
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: Well, that's the thing, because they don't want to build anything.
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: They just want to destroy. And that's why wherever socialism
• 29:17
  Speaker 4: has full power, people have starved, right? The decline of
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: living standards is remarkable. I mean, it's why so much
• 29:28
  Speaker 4: of the world is behind for a century of capitalism,
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: free markets, free ideas, free expression. Those are the things
• 29:42
  Speaker 4: that feed more people, that protect more people, get people
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: more opportunity. The land of opportunity, right? That's what America is.
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: And where are they coming from? They're coming from socialist
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: countries who do not have opportunity.
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: Hey, November, Election Day, don't you think the Democrats are
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: going to get a rude awakening that they went way
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: too far?
• 30:08
  Speaker 8: I don't know, Mark.
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: I'm not confident. I'm just reading the real clear politics,
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: and it's looking increasingly like the Democrats have the edge
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: going into the midterms in both the Senate and House races.
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: If that were to be the case... then I think
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: if they were to take both houses, that would make
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: for a very difficult two years for President Trump. And
• 30:37
  Speaker 4: there's no question that impeachment would be high on the list,
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: investigations over and over. So I think there's a lot
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: at stake in this midterm elections, as you recall, Art.
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: Back in 2018, which was the midterm of President Trump's
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: first term, the Democrats, the far-left Democrats, took over the
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: state Senate in New York, among other institutions, and wrecked
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: the New York. That's when all the taxes started going up.
• 31:13
  Speaker 4: The attack on energy drove up fuel prices, the green this,
• 31:18
  Speaker 4: the green that. So there's a lot of downstream results.
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: If Democrats make Congress. Wow.
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: Well, everybody go read Michael Goodwin's column. It's up on
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: the New York Post website. You can read him every
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: Sunday and every Wednesday in the New York Post. Great stuff.
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: Michael Goodwin, thanks for being with us.
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: Oh, it's a pleasure, Mark.
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: Take care. Hey, we've got a lot coming up in
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: the next hour, so stay with us. You know, I'm
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: here now three hours every day, 9 to noon, 9 a.m.
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: to noon every day. Then Buck and Clay, every day

  Speaker 2: at noon, you get two hosts for the price of one,
• 31:54

• 32:01
  Speaker 2: Sean Hannity. You got Jesse Kelly, six o'clock every night.
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: Jimmy Fallon, what a great show. You'll love this show.
• 32:08
  Speaker 4: Smart.
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: 20 every night, 9 to midnight on 710WOR. Mark's a mom.
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: Mr.
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: New York. Now three hours every weekday from 9 till
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: noon on 710WOR. Well, it's hard to believe we're heading
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: into Labor Day weekend. That's right. You'll see the city
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: get emptier and emptier and emptier. People are taking a
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: lot of time off for this week. It's a big,
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: big vacation week. Labor Day weekend coming up. It's already,
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: any time weekends, there's football all over TV. I know,
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: you go in the store, there's Halloween candy, there's pumpkin spice. Yeah,
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: you're right. They did start it earlier than usual. Everybody
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: launched a pumpkin spice earlier than usual. Dunkin' Donuts, Starbucks,
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: all started earlier. And, I don't know why, but this
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: pumpkin spice stuff, not selling as well as usual. Maybe
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: because they went too early. Or, Maybe. It's possible. People
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: realize it was cute in the beginning, pumpkin spice, but
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: do you really want your coffee to taste like pumpkin?
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: Not really.
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: Pumpkin pie, that's it. Delicious. Pumpkin pie. That's about the
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: only use for pumpkin food-wise. You don't really want pumpkin milkshake.
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: You don't want pumpkin coffee. You don't want any of that.
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: So it's Labor Day weekend coming up. You're going to
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: see rain for the next few days, but then By Thursday,
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: that clears up. It should be a nice, dry, sunny weekend.
• 33:38
