  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: So when it comes to Trump barring the reporters from
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: the White House, why don't he just use the argument
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: that they're a national security threat?
• 4:06

• 4:08
  Speaker 1: When they go into discovery. Yeah, listen to me. They've
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: used it. They've used it. They've used it. And what
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: they're referring to is a couple of reporters leaked out stuff,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: classified stuff. So they're going to use all the arguments
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: in court. But we'll see what happens. Let's go to
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: Vincent in Brooklyn. Vincent, how are you doing?
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: Good morning, Mark. Mark, I had a call screener, Izzy,
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: cracking up when I said this. This is what I do.
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: Want to know what I did to a teacher when
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: I was young in grammar school?
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Oh, I hate to ask. What?
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: It was Teacher Appreciation Day, and I brought the teacher
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: a bouquet of flowers. Each flower was laced with black pepper.
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: And I told the teacher, I said, go ahead, sniff
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: the flowers, smell the bouquet. Well, she did. It went
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: up her nose, in her eyes. They called me down
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: to the principal's office. My mother had to come up
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: to school and get me. And when they got me home,
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: it didn't end pretty well for me. Mark, yesterday I
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: heard on WOR News that what the Democrats wanted to
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: do on a national level with the AI, control it.
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: The city council already, there's two bills on Julia Menon's desk.
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: that you have to use city-approved AI software, and there's
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: a rat law. Any employee working in a business where
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: they're not using city-approved AI software They're going to fine
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: the business, and the rat will get half of the
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: money of the fine. Now, I wonder if this is
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: who promulgated this law, and if this common-sense Democrat, so-called
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: Julia Menon, Julia Menon is going to sign it.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: No, it makes perfect sense. It makes perfect sense, because
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: obviously they're handing out a contract for the software. in
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: exchange for massive donations.
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: Exactly.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: That's all it's about. Yeah.
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: Government 101. Once again. Yeah.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: Great call, Vincent. Thanks for calling. Yeah. When you hand
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: out these massive contracts in exchange for huge donation to
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: your packs and your campaigns, you got to make sure
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: everybody uses the software. So that's why those restrictions. Oh,
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: when we come back, Bill O'Reilly normally on Tuesdays, but
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: he had to move to Monday this week. So we'll
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: talk to Bill O'Reilly. He'll be with us next. on 710WOR.
