Hour 2: Rising electric costs · Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning

0:00
Speaker 1: So it's interesting it was a FATA company, by the way,
0:03
Speaker 1: because the Senate has more Republicans than Democrats, so they
0:08
Speaker 1: run the committee overseeing Anthony Fauci and the Health Department,
0:14
Speaker 1: and so it was a FATA company that they were
0:16
Speaker 1: going to say yes to a subpoena. It was an
0:19
Speaker 1: eight to seven vote. Actually, it's going to win the
0:21
Speaker 1: record as an eight to five vote because two senators
0:24
Speaker 1: weren't there. They did in case they were needed register
0:28
Speaker 1: their votes, but it's actually going to go down in
0:31
Speaker 1: the record as eight to five. So now Ran Paul thinks,
0:36
Speaker 1: and we'll find out if this is true, that he
0:38
Speaker 1: doesn't have to go to the full Senate, that he
0:41
Speaker 1: can take the subpoena just to the Justice Department, which
0:45
Speaker 1: then there could be charges after that of contempt of Congress.
0:49
Speaker 1: Here's the thing. This is all based on the fact
0:53
Speaker 1: that the Fifth Amendment protects you from prosecution from the
0:56
Speaker 1: federal government, and it was for a certain ring, which
1:00
Speaker 1: doesn't cover not not talking to Congress. It doesn't give
1:05
Speaker 1: him protection when he was in front of the Senate
1:08
Speaker 1: because it's after the range of the pardon, but it
1:13
Speaker 1: does give him protection from the states. And so it
1:17
Speaker 1: was unfortunate timing for Rand Paul and the committee that
1:21
Speaker 1: Florida has subpoened him and wants to talk to him,
1:26
Speaker 1: and it looks like they're going to go ahead with charges.
1:29
Speaker 1: So Fuci has a pretty good argument.
1:31
Speaker 2: Well, actually, now they've been joined by three other states
1:35
Speaker 2: that also want to know. Also increasingly what Ron Johnson,
1:40
Speaker 2: the Wisconsin Senator, was talking about, and you pointed out yesterday,
1:44
Speaker 2: he's not sharing it with that committee Ran Paul's committee
1:47
Speaker 2: because he's on it.
1:48
Speaker 3: He has his own committee.
1:50
Speaker 2: He has the records of doctor Fauci's government issued phone
1:56
Speaker 2: from the time the discussions were with various pharmaceutical companies
2:02
Speaker 2: about vaccines that were being offered. He is suggestioning, because
2:06
Speaker 2: obviously he knows what it's in the transcripts, that there
2:09
Speaker 2: was some grifting going on on behalf of Fauci himself,
2:14
Speaker 2: that pharmaceuticals were currying favor with him and doing quid
2:19
Speaker 2: pro clothes in order to get their vaccine suggestions to
2:24
Speaker 2: be heard first and foremost. Because even though Trump ultimately decided,
2:28
Speaker 2: he's still he's still weighing what Fauci has to say
2:33
Speaker 2: about the vaccines. There's that, and there's also the awards. Yes,
2:36
Speaker 2: and he had his staff working on applying for awards.
2:41
Speaker 2: One of them was nine hundred thousand dollars and they
2:44
Speaker 2: totaled a couple of million dollars. And then when they
2:47
Speaker 2: won all these awards. They won all these awards.
2:49
Speaker 1: And it's supposed to go to the department, the health department,
2:53
Speaker 1: he lobbied to keep.
2:56
Speaker 3: It for himself.
2:57
Speaker 2: Now you know, his kissing cousin in all of this
3:00
Speaker 2: was Andrew evilized Clomo, who had to give up his
3:03
Speaker 2: Emmy award. Remember he got the Emmy Award for those
3:06
Speaker 2: twelve o'clock afternoon endless updates on the COVID nineteen. You know,
3:11
Speaker 2: as if he were a doctor. He had to give
3:13
Speaker 2: it back. We should make I mean, when all is
3:16
Speaker 2: said and done, there are probably things that can be done.
3:18
Speaker 2: A fout chin can't be done. We're running out of time.
3:21
Speaker 2: The guy's probably going to drop dead in a year.
3:23
Speaker 4: Is that?
3:24
Speaker 2: Does he have to give all those money and awards back,
3:27
Speaker 2: like Cuomo had to give the Emmy award back.
3:29
Speaker 1: Well, I think probably the States will make that the
3:33
Speaker 1: fine so they can have that money. But it is
3:36
Speaker 1: really interesting. Look, these are all going to be charged
3:40
Speaker 1: it's all Republican states. Every one of those states are
3:43
Speaker 1: going to charge him with something, and so he's going
3:46
Speaker 1: to be spending maybe not the rest of his life
3:48
Speaker 1: in jail, but at the rest of his life with
3:50
Speaker 1: lawyers and in a courtroom, and that might be a
3:52
Speaker 1: greater hell.
3:53
Speaker 2: The so called bright won graduate of Regi's high school,
3:56
Speaker 2: the top Jesuit high school in the country, had all
3:59
Speaker 2: of his diaries on government service and probably had these
4:03
Speaker 2: personal conversations done on his government phone rather than his
4:08
Speaker 2: private phone. Good, we'll know all about a great transparency.
4:10
Speaker 2: But you had mentioned originally that Rand Paul was hoping
4:14
Speaker 2: to circumvent having to go to the United States Senate
4:16
Speaker 2: because they can never get sixty votes on the resolution.
4:19
Speaker 2: All the Democrats will vote against it, Okay, so it
4:22
Speaker 2: goes to the Department of Justice. And we were thinking
4:26
Speaker 2: that it was a bit of a slam dunk for
4:29
Speaker 2: Todd Blanche to get the vote that's going to take
4:32
Speaker 2: place today for his confirmation as the permanent Attorney General.
4:36
Speaker 2: He's just interim now and it's come down to two Republicans,
4:40
Speaker 2: and he had a meeting the other day you described
4:42
Speaker 2: with Murkowski, the Senator of Alaska and Cassidy, the Senator
4:47
Speaker 2: of Louisiana, who's outgoing because it was Trump's candidate who
4:51
Speaker 2: beat him in the primary. So Cassidy a doctor, maybe
4:55
Speaker 2: going back to the medical field. But now, just as
4:59
Speaker 2: we came on the air, Larry, Lisa Murkowski has joined
5:03
Speaker 2: her friend Susan Collins to say, nope, we're voting against
5:07
Speaker 2: his nomination.
5:09
Speaker 1: You know, it's strange though, too that she made that decision,
5:12
Speaker 1: because remember her yesterday she walked out of the meeting
5:15
Speaker 1: she was with Cassidy. The two of them walked out
5:18
Speaker 1: of the meeting with Blanche and everything seemed like she
5:21
Speaker 1: was going to vote for him.
5:22
Speaker 5: I'm gonna be processing a lot of what we just discussed, so.
5:29
Speaker 2: We'll go from there. So you know me, I don't
5:31
Speaker 2: trust any politicians, Democrats, Republicans.
5:34
Speaker 3: I'm thinking this. They both go in there and they
5:37
Speaker 3: have a good session.
5:38
Speaker 2: Todd Blanche knows he's got to pretty much tell them
5:41
Speaker 2: what they want to hear or he's dead on her rival.
5:43
Speaker 2: He needs he needs both the votes, right, one of
5:47
Speaker 2: the votes. So they come out hand in hand, and
5:50
Speaker 2: then maybe they had a conversation afterwards, and Lisa Murkowski says, hey, look,
5:55
Speaker 2: you're going to vote for him, right Bill, Yeah, I'm
5:58
Speaker 2: going to vote no. Helps me in Alaska. It also
6:01
Speaker 2: helps me with Susan Collins. You know, I'm the outliers.
6:04
Speaker 2: She is from the Trump administration. So your vote, you
6:07
Speaker 2: don't need my vote, right yeah, And then she announces
6:10
Speaker 2: this morning, Now all the drum, the whole focus is
6:14
Speaker 2: gonna be on Cassidy, the outgoing senator. You couldn't write
6:18
Speaker 2: a better script, because we know he's angry at Trump.
6:21
Speaker 2: We know he felt he was stabbing back like Corning
6:23
Speaker 2: did in Texas. What does he do? What he does?
6:28
Speaker 2: And he's in the You're right, he's in the catbird seed.
6:31
Speaker 2: I'm sure he's going to be called to the White
6:32
Speaker 2: House today. He's gonna have a conversation with Trump, and
6:35
Speaker 2: I think it's gonna start with something like this, what
6:38
Speaker 2: do you want? He is definitely in the catbird seed.
6:43
Speaker 2: He can ask for many, many things, including his political career,
6:48
Speaker 2: a possible nomination in the future, the support of Donald
6:52
Speaker 2: Trump if he runs again. I mean there's a million
6:55
Speaker 2: things that he can ask for. Funding for a pet
6:58
Speaker 2: program back in North Carolina. I mean, there's a lot
7:01
Speaker 2: of stuff Remember it was his deciding vote. He was
7:04
Speaker 2: the doctor on the committee that finally said yes to
7:08
Speaker 2: r F K Jr. Remember he was the one who
7:10
Speaker 2: was doubting Thomas. He said, you know this, this what
7:14
Speaker 2: you're saying before the committee now has no medical president whatever.
7:18
Speaker 2: But eventually he voted for r F K Junior in
7:21
Speaker 2: the committee, or r F K Junior would not have
7:23
Speaker 2: been able to go on and replace doctor Fauci in
7:26
Speaker 2: the Trump administration. Imagine, because you're right, he's got the
7:32
Speaker 2: president by the short hairs on this.
7:35
Speaker 3: I want you to get rid of RFK Junr. It's
7:38
Speaker 3: not that I want I want you to replace him.
7:40
Speaker 1: I'd be sad to be silly, though, because why would
7:42
Speaker 1: he ask for that. It's not gonna I'm not gonna
7:44
Speaker 1: help him at all. And he's in the realm. Come on,
7:47
Speaker 1: you know, politicians, this is all gonna be self serving.
7:50
Speaker 1: So it's gonna be for him. It's gonna be for
7:52
Speaker 1: North Carolina. It's gonna be for him. If it's for
7:54
Speaker 1: North Carolina, he can say, look, you ma for Louisiana, right, Louisiana.
7:58
Speaker 1: Excuse me, I'm sorry, I get him mixed there. They're
8:00
Speaker 1: all corrupt they're all corrupted right in Luisia with tell
8:03
Speaker 1: Us all the time, because you know they're the same outliers.
8:07
Speaker 1: But listen, I think that if he can get something
8:11
Speaker 1: for Louisiana, there's other elections coming up, like for governor,
8:16
Speaker 1: he can say this is what I did for you.
8:19
Speaker 3: All Right, the drama continues.
8:22
Speaker 2: Well, no, Now if Trump pulls a nomination because Blanchekin
8:26
Speaker 2: stay the interim ag and says we'll do it after
8:28
Speaker 2: the midterm. So we'll do it when everyone's sworn in
8:31
Speaker 2: in January first, and see what the decade cards has
8:34
Speaker 2: to say. Then we'll know that Cassidy told them no,
8:36
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I'm joining Murkowski and Susan Collins in voting
8:40
Speaker 2: no because you can remain in interim ag for a
8:43
Speaker 2: period of time.
8:44
Speaker 3: Wow, this is trauma.
8:46
Speaker 2: This is like when McCain got out of his deathbed,
8:48
Speaker 2: remember and flew Alah from Arizona, went in the well
8:51
Speaker 2: of the Senate. He was days away from dying, and
8:54
Speaker 2: he looks up ad Vice President Pence and he goes
8:58
Speaker 2: no to Trump trying to kill Obamacare.
9:00
Speaker 1: Yeah, that ain't going to be this. It's not going
9:03
Speaker 1: to be this because they would even give him a
9:05
Speaker 1: chance for a vote when McConnell's out of the hospital now,
9:07
Speaker 1: but they would have to roll him in like they
9:09
Speaker 1: did they did with Diane Feinstein. I don't think that's
9:13
Speaker 1: going to happen. I got a feeling Cassidy is going
9:17
Speaker 1: to get pressured and he's going to go ahead and
9:20
Speaker 1: vote for you, vote yes. I think Blanche is going
9:22
Speaker 1: to get through. And the only reason I feel that
9:24
Speaker 1: way is because Trump felt so confident about it yesterday,
9:27
Speaker 1: So I think they've already had conversations.
9:30
Speaker 2: We'll see, we'll see, we'll shoe by twelve moonton. I
9:32
Speaker 2: guarantee you that one way or the other. But oh boy,
9:36
Speaker 2: haven't I been warning everyone about AI artificial intelligence? I
9:39
Speaker 2: would say you larry your Mega meg Poco Poco half
9:42
Speaker 2: and half on it. You're opposed to the AI datifiling
9:45
Speaker 2: centers that are growing all over the place, as I am.
9:48
Speaker 2: But now we have a report that AI can create
9:52
Speaker 2: virus shit. You don't even need doctor facci, you don't
9:55
Speaker 2: even need to outsource some to Wuhan. The Red Chinese
9:59
Speaker 2: and the defenders of AI are saying, well, you're partially correct. Curtis.
10:04
Speaker 2: AI has created sixteen viruses which infect other bacterias but
10:09
Speaker 2: not humans. Yeah right, it's a little fauciesque here. Remember
10:16
Speaker 2: the reason for Fauci. He had to finally admit they
10:20
Speaker 2: were funding the Wuhan left but for studies of bacteria,
10:24
Speaker 2: it would never affect humans.
10:26
Speaker 1: It's called gain of function research. And what you do
10:29
Speaker 1: is you manipulate the molecular structure of the disease of
10:33
Speaker 1: virus to make it more powerful, and then you keep
10:37
Speaker 1: it in the lab and then you see how you
10:40
Speaker 1: can defeat it. But if there's a lab leak like
10:43
Speaker 1: there was in Wuhan, you can kill four million people.
10:46
Speaker 2: I would suggest Larry that we do a deep dive
10:49
Speaker 2: on AI creating viruses on Monday, because by then we'll
10:53
Speaker 2: have more of the data. This, I mean, this is fauciesque.
10:58
Speaker 2: This is vali and we know it could do it
11:00
Speaker 2: hell of a lot faster than those lab the technicians
11:03
Speaker 2: did in a lone lab that Fauci, the evil one
11:08
Speaker 2: doctor Death was funding.
11:10
Speaker 3: Oh my god.
11:12
Speaker 1: Well, you know mister Pillow is running for office, right,
11:14
Speaker 1: you've heard about that, Yeah, Minnesota governor. Yeah, he's running
11:17
Speaker 1: for office, and now he's in some trouble because of
11:20
Speaker 1: his pillows.
11:21
Speaker 3: You're kidding.
11:21
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that when we come back. Plus a
11:23
Speaker 1: chance to see Leonard Skinnerton foreigner at A twenty five.
11:27
Speaker 1: Listen as somebody who spent a career reporting the news.
11:30
Speaker 1: I've seen it myself. I know how quickly just a
11:34
Speaker 1: common event can turn into an emergency, a life threatening emergency.
11:39
Speaker 1: Choking is one of those moments. It can happen to
11:42
Speaker 1: anybody anytime they go to eat or put something in
11:46
Speaker 1: their mouth, a child, a parent, a grandparent. When it does,
11:50
Speaker 1: seconds matter. That's why I want to tell you about
11:52
Speaker 1: life Back. Life back is the first and only FDA
11:57
Speaker 1: authorized suction anti choking device to be used for second
12:01
Speaker 1: line treatment when recommended choking protocols have been followed without success.
12:07
Speaker 1: And here's what's so remarkable. Life back has helped save
12:11
Speaker 1: six thousand lives worldwide. Think about that. We're talking about
12:16
Speaker 1: real people, real families, real second chances, second chances that
12:21
Speaker 1: were given to them by life back. Preparedness matters. Having
12:26
Speaker 1: the right tool nearby can make all the difference in
12:30
Speaker 1: the world. So learn more about life fac today at
12:33
Speaker 1: lifefac dot net. That's lifeback dot net. Visit lifeback dot
12:38
Speaker 1: net and see how you can be ready when it counts. Well,
12:43
Speaker 1: you know very well campaign finance laws, Curtis, and you
12:48
Speaker 1: probably know you're not allowed to give away many things
12:51
Speaker 1: of value, maybe a pen, you know something. I think
12:54
Speaker 1: in most states it's less than ten dollars.
12:58
Speaker 2: Oh, you know, I was judged Amford University Memorial Day weekend.
13:03
Speaker 2: That's where Herbert Hoover went. They have the Hoover Center,
13:06
Speaker 2: that's the main building there. You wouldn't want to brag
13:09
Speaker 2: about that. The guy was in charge sharing the depression.
13:12
Speaker 2: But remember his campaign was a chicken in every pot.
13:15
Speaker 3: Now.
13:16
Speaker 2: I don't know if he actually gave away chickens on
13:19
Speaker 2: the presidential campaign trail. Maybe it was just a statement,
13:23
Speaker 2: but you're right, technically you're not supposed to be giving
13:26
Speaker 2: away chatchkeys and gifts.
13:28
Speaker 4: Right.
13:28
Speaker 1: A judge found probable cause. It's now going to a panel,
13:32
Speaker 1: an election panel, to find out if he should be
13:34
Speaker 1: sanctioned at all. Lindell argues, this is the pillow guy
13:38
Speaker 1: from Minister and Mike Lindell, mister Pillow. He has argued
13:42
Speaker 1: that he gets them wholesale at four dollars and ninety
13:45
Speaker 1: cents a pillow, so they become under the level of
13:48
Speaker 1: you you have to pay for and they say, yeah,
13:50
Speaker 1: but that's not what you sell them for. And that's
13:52
Speaker 1: what the price we're gonna go with. So we're gonna
13:54
Speaker 1: see what's gonna happen. I don't think anything major is
13:57
Speaker 1: going to happen to him. One of the big things
14:01
Speaker 1: that they are talking about, though, there is you can't
14:04
Speaker 1: go on as mister Pillow. I mean, if you get
14:06
Speaker 1: this job, that's the job no longer. And he's addressed
14:10
Speaker 1: that too.
14:11
Speaker 6: I will be no longer all involved in any way,
14:14
Speaker 6: shape or form. I will be running for governor. I'm
14:17
Speaker 6: all in for governor. I won't be I will just
14:20
Speaker 6: be a minor stockholder. An that's it.
14:22
Speaker 1: Could you imagine mister Pillow is governor of Minnesota.
14:26
Speaker 2: Everybody's always gonna know him as mister Pillow. I mean,
14:29
Speaker 2: there's no way to excipe it. It's like Jesse the
14:31
Speaker 2: body Ventur. Remember he was the mayor of a town
14:34
Speaker 2: outside of Minneapolis. He ran as the independent for governor.
14:37
Speaker 2: Nobody thought he could win. He won in a three
14:40
Speaker 2: way race.
14:42
Speaker 3: He had to lead.
14:42
Speaker 2: Remember the WWF, he couldn't be the announ or. The
14:45
Speaker 2: wrestler there It's like, I don't know if Lindell can
14:49
Speaker 2: win that primary though I don't even think the President
14:53
Speaker 2: has endorsed him at this point. But it will be
14:55
Speaker 2: an interesting case to watch because if you get people pillows,
15:00
Speaker 2: technically that means they go to sleep and may not
15:03
Speaker 2: show up on election for you.
15:05
Speaker 3: If it's a good Pillow.
15:07
Speaker 1: He's leading in the polls right now for the nomination.
15:10
Speaker 1: It's razor close, but he is ahead. So look at
15:14
Speaker 1: name recognition means a whole lot. It would be a
15:18
Speaker 1: fast you know, for us. It's great, of course if
15:22
Speaker 1: mister Pillow wins and gets to be especially if mister
15:25
Speaker 1: Pillow gets to be governor of Minnesota. Men, that would
15:28
Speaker 1: be fun. They've had some doozies, including the current governor. Men.
15:33
Speaker 1: All right, let's let's get some talkbacks.
15:36
Speaker 7: Yeah, Larry, I'm surprised you're just hearing about the flock cameras.
15:39
Speaker 7: If you frequent social media, especially TikTok, you're a multiple
15:43
Speaker 7: videos of people telling telling you how to destroy those cameras,
15:49
Speaker 7: you know, knock them off their bases, obscure their vision,
15:52
Speaker 7: et cetera. They're tying this whole flock system also to
15:57
Speaker 7: the database centers being built all over the country and
16:02
Speaker 7: to the new car models coming out that can be controlled.
16:05
Speaker 1: Through the Yeah, the problem is and thank you for that.
16:09
Speaker 3: Yeah.
16:09
Speaker 1: No, I had just heard about it for the first time.
16:11
Speaker 1: But believe me, I'll be doing a deeper dive on
16:13
Speaker 1: do it because I want to know more about this.
16:15
Speaker 1: It sounds orwellian that they can have all of this
16:19
Speaker 1: information and people think to themselves, well, it's just the
16:21
Speaker 1: license plate, but no, with AI, they can get a
16:25
Speaker 1: plethora of information. They will know your whole life. And
16:28
Speaker 1: now the fact that that that's all going to be
16:30
Speaker 1: stored in a database, and as you're saying, in a
16:34
Speaker 1: data center that is extremely concerned.
16:37
Speaker 3: Well, we'll do a deep dive on that on Monday.
16:39
Speaker 1: Yeah we should.
16:41
Speaker 8: John Fretterman needs to stay a Democrat because he is
16:45
Speaker 8: a dissenting vote. He should not become a Republican. He's
16:50
Speaker 8: the one that keeps the check on them, and there
16:56
Speaker 8: should be more Democrats like him. I don't know if
17:01
Speaker 8: it helps if he switches over.
17:03
Speaker 1: I will tell you this, the Republicans would love him
17:06
Speaker 1: to switch over, but doesn't he ninety percent of the
17:09
Speaker 1: time vote with a Democrat.
17:10
Speaker 3: He's against Todd Blanche's confirmation.
17:13
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's and as we've seen, he's not going to
17:16
Speaker 1: be easy to sway to vote your way. He's going
17:18
Speaker 1: to vote the way he is going to vote. It
17:21
Speaker 1: is a shame that we're having this type of conversation.
17:25
Speaker 1: It's a shame that we don't have people in the
17:28
Speaker 1: Senate or in Congress for that matter, who don't vote
17:31
Speaker 1: their own minds. They're told how to vote.
17:35
Speaker 2: Well, remember we were told in the primary against doctor
17:39
Speaker 2: Odge that he had lost his mind, that he had
17:41
Speaker 2: no control of his mind, fetterment, that he couldn't even speak.
17:45
Speaker 1: What a major recovery it is. It's kind of amazing.
17:48
Speaker 1: It really is amazing. And look he became saying her,
17:51
Speaker 1: he became a Republican. Hey, Larry, I learned some Latin
17:55
Speaker 1: and Catechism school as well. They taught me the Pope's
17:57
Speaker 1: phone number. I believe it was spirit too too.
18:00
Speaker 3: Oh oh.
18:05
Speaker 2: I hated every day of Latin at Brooklyn premp every day,
18:10
Speaker 2: although they said it's the gateway to all languages, to
18:13
Speaker 2: all and then if you were really good, you had
18:16
Speaker 2: to take mandatory Greek. So imagine Latin and Greek together
18:22
Speaker 2: before you could even entertain taking Spanish or French or
18:26
Speaker 2: Italian or German or any other language.
18:28
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was only the gateway to the seminary. I
18:30
Speaker 1: think anybody that did well but they didn't get me
18:33
Speaker 1: at Latin. No, well, you didn't do well Latin either,
18:36
Speaker 1: did I Let's get the Daria Albinger with the seven
18:39
Speaker 1: thirty news.
18:39
Speaker 9: Area Morning Guy. Sunny in hot today with the high
18:41
Speaker 9: of ninety one degrees. The heat advisory has been extended
18:44
Speaker 9: through tomorrow and the cooling centers will be open again today.
18:47
Speaker 9: Across the city, a man accused of burning down an
18:50
Speaker 9: historic church in Brooklyn will be in court today.
18:53
Speaker 5: John Jones was arrested this week after proseer's alleged the
18:56
Speaker 5: twenty four year old arson. Suspects lit South Brunswick Reformed
18:59
Speaker 5: Church on fire on June nineteenth. The church that stood
19:02
Speaker 5: since the eighteen fifties was engulfed in flames and destroyed.
19:06
Speaker 5: Residents are reacting.
19:07
Speaker 10: I've never seen that person in this neighborhood at all.
19:10
Speaker 11: I'm outside every day.
19:11
Speaker 10: And it's so hurtful that someone would stoop that low
19:15
Speaker 10: to burn down God's house.
19:17
Speaker 5: The suspect to is from Brooklyn, has no known connection
19:20
Speaker 5: to the church. It was designated as a New York
19:22
Speaker 5: City landmark. I'm Scoppringle.
19:24
Speaker 12: Wrdw's federal judge says, Haitian migrants in the US have
19:27
Speaker 12: officially lost their temporary protected status. That follows a Supreme
19:31
Speaker 12: Court decision which allowed the White House to end the program.
19:35
Speaker 12: It was granted after the twenty ten earthquake in Haiti
19:38
Speaker 12: and protected more than three hundred thousand Haitians from deportation.
19:42
Speaker 12: A judge in New Mexico has been ordered, or rather
19:45
Speaker 12: has ordered, Meta to pay five hundred and sixty seven
19:48
Speaker 12: million dollars for the company's role in a mental health
19:52
Speaker 12: crisis among children. The ruling requires Meta to put that
19:56
Speaker 12: money into a fund to address harms to children which
19:59
Speaker 12: were caused by social media. And if you are thinking
20:02
Speaker 12: about buying a home, here is a number that you
20:05
Speaker 12: need to keep in mind. One hundred and ten thousand.
20:09
Speaker 12: That's how much need to earn to comfortably afford a
20:12
Speaker 12: typical starter.
20:13
Speaker 1: Home in the US.
20:14
Speaker 11: That's according to a report by real estate website Redfinn.
20:18
Speaker 11: And if anybody around here knows we know this, you
20:22
Speaker 11: can bet that home is going to be a lot
20:23
Speaker 11: more expensive in this area and the average American household income.
20:28
Speaker 11: It's eighty eight thousand dollars. Let's beak Cleveland thirteen to six.
20:32
Speaker 11: There in Pittsburgh tonight. The Yankees open up a series
20:34
Speaker 11: at home tonight against Atlanta. Next News eight o'clock bulletins
20:38
Speaker 11: at once. I'm Daria Albinger on seven to ten, wor up.
20:41
Speaker 2: Next rob Astorino, our guy here WR, ram for governor.
20:45
Speaker 2: His reaction as Hochel says she's suing Calchi and Blakeman's response.
20:51
Speaker 2: But meantime, teachers make a difference each and every day.
20:55
Speaker 2: Now's your chance to say thanks. Iheartradios thank and teach
20:59
Speaker 2: A donors choose nominated an outstanding public school teacher who
21:04
Speaker 2: goes above and beyond for students. They could be one
21:06
Speaker 2: of our five thousand dollars winners for classroom supplies and resources.
21:11
Speaker 3: Teachers give so much. Now it's our turn to get back.
21:14
Speaker 2: Nominated teacher now at iHeartRadio dot com slash teachers Amazing
21:19
Speaker 2: on the line now, Larry rob Astorino, our guy here
21:22
Speaker 2: at WR. You want to listen on Saturdays four to
21:25
Speaker 2: five because he's run for governor. Did a great job
21:28
Speaker 2: against Andrew evilized Cuomwall. But we're less than ninety days out.
21:32
Speaker 2: Now it's the sprint between Kathy Hochl, a governor, and
21:37
Speaker 2: her challenger, Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman. So last week
21:41
Speaker 2: we discussed how Hokel had imposed a moratorium on the
21:46
Speaker 2: building of AI data filing centers for a year in
21:49
Speaker 2: New York State. Blakeman said, no, no, no, we shouldn't
21:51
Speaker 2: be doing that. And now the new local issue is
21:54
Speaker 2: Calshi Hokel and Attorney General Tiss James assuing them it's
22:00
Speaker 2: a betting market. Blakeman is objecting, saying, hey, it's an
22:05
Speaker 2: investment tool, it's overseen by the federal government. You should
22:10
Speaker 2: not be suing them. So we're really getting down to
22:12
Speaker 2: the local issues now that a lot of people need
22:15
Speaker 2: to know before they cast sevo.
22:17
Speaker 3: Would that be correct?
22:19
Speaker 13: Rob?
22:20
Speaker 14: You know it's funny.
22:22
Speaker 4: The State of New York has pushed gambling everywhere, right,
22:26
Speaker 4: casinos everywhere, They want online betting everywhere.
22:31
Speaker 14: Every vice possible in New York. But this because the
22:35
Speaker 14: state ain't getting its cut.
22:37
Speaker 4: Like a mafioso, they don't want to deal with it,
22:40
Speaker 4: so they're gonna sue. Because God forbid. They don't get
22:44
Speaker 4: their little take, that's what it is all about. But
22:46
Speaker 4: there's a ton of money that the state of New
22:49
Speaker 4: York could get.
22:50
Speaker 14: Now. Look, I perfectly I don't do DraftKings. I don't
22:54
Speaker 14: do those things just because they're probably real addictive.
22:57
Speaker 4: I could probably sit there all day, like two many
23:00
Speaker 4: people are.
23:01
Speaker 14: Betting on every little freaking thing. But it's legal.
23:04
Speaker 4: And if all the other things are going to be
23:06
Speaker 4: legal in New York, why would cow she be be
23:09
Speaker 4: out of the picture.
23:10
Speaker 14: I don't get it.
23:12
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with you. I do want to talk
23:14
Speaker 1: about John Fetterman though. I think he's the most fascinating
23:17
Speaker 1: guy in politics today, and he's not real popular among
23:22
Speaker 1: the Democrats right now. That Paul was taken in Pennsylvania
23:26
Speaker 1: that showed that only twenty two percent of Democrats support
23:31
Speaker 1: John Fetterman, but seventy three percent of Republicans support him. Now, look,
23:38
Speaker 1: people are lining up to primary him. Do you think
23:42
Speaker 1: he's eventually.
23:43
Speaker 3: Going to switch?
23:45
Speaker 14: You know what this is like? I don't know.
23:48
Speaker 4: This is probably like going to Vegas, going to a
23:51
Speaker 4: strip club, paying the woman to strip in front of
23:55
Speaker 4: you and thinking you're in love and that she loves you.
23:58
Speaker 4: I mean, let's be honest for a second. Fetterman is
24:02
Speaker 4: pretty liberal on a lot of things. He is a Democrat,
24:06
Speaker 4: and just because on a couple of votes he's had
24:08
Speaker 4: some common sense or are things like Israel.
24:12
Speaker 14: You know, it's like quick to jump on him. Yeah.
24:15
Speaker 4: I have respect for him because he's the only guy
24:18
Speaker 4: that's holding out right now in his party and talking
24:21
Speaker 4: some nonsense and confronting the evil in his party.
24:25
Speaker 14: But would I want him to.
24:26
Speaker 4: Be the Republican nominee for Senate in Pennsylvania.
24:30
Speaker 3: No, absolutely not.
24:33
Speaker 4: Like nine out of ten things we disagree on and
24:36
Speaker 4: that will continue.
24:37
Speaker 14: So no, I don't want that.
24:38
Speaker 4: But I do respect him, and I'm thankful that he's
24:41
Speaker 4: doing what he's doing. But no, I want a hardcore
24:44
Speaker 4: Republican in Pennsylvania. It's the same thing as South Carolina.
24:48
Speaker 4: By the way, Lindsey Graham's daughter, I know nothing about
24:52
Speaker 4: now Lucky.
24:53
Speaker 14: I'm not voting in South Carolina.
24:55
Speaker 4: But if I were a Republican there, I'm really not
24:57
Speaker 4: so sure that I would vote for her because for
25:00
Speaker 4: six years in the future, I have no idea really
25:02
Speaker 4: what she stands for other than her brother, who I like.
25:05
Speaker 4: But I you know, it's kind of the it's similar
25:08
Speaker 4: things to me. At this point, I want to make
25:10
Speaker 4: sure I'm getting what I'm buying.
25:13
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you were the Democrats, i'd want to run Fetterman.
25:16
Speaker 1: He's going to get Republican votes. I mean, he's going
25:18
Speaker 1: to get probably all the Democratic votes because it's a
25:21
Speaker 1: Democrat and they're not going to vote for the Republican.
25:23
Speaker 1: But he's going to get those votes. John Thune, by
25:24
Speaker 1: the way, wants them to come over.
25:27
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, you'd want anyone to come over just to
25:29
Speaker 4: build your numbers. I mean, Bernie Sanders isn't a Democrat,
25:33
Speaker 4: but he caucuses with them.
25:35
Speaker 14: But I mean that would be that would be pretty wild.
25:39
Speaker 4: If Federman switched parties or just announced that he was
25:42
Speaker 4: going to be an independent and caucus with the Republicans,
25:45
Speaker 4: then I mean, look, he's a guy with no party anymore.
25:49
Speaker 4: And else I ed in Michigan has just taking total
25:52
Speaker 4: shots at Fetterman because Fetterman has a streak of independence,
25:56
Speaker 4: which he's supposed to And speaking by the way, speaking
26:00
Speaker 4: of l s A ed So, I was just in
26:01
Speaker 4: Michigan covering that primary.
26:03
Speaker 14: So on Wednesday morning, I walk out of my hotel.
26:08
Speaker 4: In Detroit and I'm have my pluggage and I walk
26:13
Speaker 4: out and just to my left there is Abdul l
26:16
Speaker 4: Sayed at eight in the morning, and so I'm like,
26:20
Speaker 4: I went up and I said hello to him and
26:22
Speaker 4: just you know, said a couple of things, and and
26:27
Speaker 4: what struck me was that he is He's just like
26:31
Speaker 4: ma'm Domi.
26:32
Speaker 14: He is smiling, he's very personable. You could see how.
26:36
Speaker 4: He could win people over who are you know, have
26:39
Speaker 4: no idea what he stands for, what's going on, and
26:42
Speaker 4: and to me, that's what makes him so dangerous. You know,
26:47
Speaker 4: he can he can win over people, and once he's in,
26:51
Speaker 4: he's in, just like Mam Domi.
26:53
Speaker 2: Well, that's interesting because he's been labeled the socialist, although
26:58
Speaker 2: he claims he's not, we know he is. That's its platform.
27:02
Speaker 2: The Republicans are now using the term a communists to
27:06
Speaker 2: apply to anybody associated with the dssay. That's their main
27:10
Speaker 2: strategy to try to hold the midterms, you know, the
27:14
Speaker 2: Senate obviously in the House, which is precarious. But the
27:18
Speaker 2: President is finally now addressing to what I believe are
27:22
Speaker 2: the three main issues for all Americans, regardless of their
27:25
Speaker 2: political ideology. Affordability number one on their minds course to
27:30
Speaker 2: living an Iran and all three of those are not
27:34
Speaker 2: playing to the Trump factor at this side, rob what
27:37
Speaker 2: does he have to do to start turning that around,
27:40
Speaker 2: because we're now in the sprint.
27:41
Speaker 3: It's less than ninety days.
27:43
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's affecting everybody. You know, Democrats are seizing
27:47
Speaker 4: on it. Republicans are really nervous about it.
27:50
Speaker 14: You know, the Iran thing. He's got to bring that
27:53
Speaker 14: to a halt.
27:55
Speaker 4: And figure that out really soon and just have peace
27:57
Speaker 4: and so the markets will settle down. Oil prices will
28:01
Speaker 4: go down, gas prices will come down.
28:03
Speaker 14: That has to happen.
28:04
Speaker 4: But you know, the frightening thing is, for the first time,
28:08
Speaker 4: first time ever when Trump has been president, in the polling,
28:12
Speaker 4: Democrats are getting more support.
28:15
Speaker 14: On the economy than Republicans.
28:18
Speaker 4: Now you think about what the economy would look like
28:20
Speaker 4: under Biden and when what it was, and what the
28:23
Speaker 4: future Democrats are espousing. That's pretty frightening. But that's a
28:26
Speaker 4: frustration with people like I don't care. I'm pissed off
28:29
Speaker 4: at what's going on. You talked about electricity and Bruce
28:33
Speaker 4: Blakeman's got such a great issue.
28:35
Speaker 14: I got my freaking Khan ed bill the other day
28:37
Speaker 14: for July.
28:38
Speaker 4: It was seven hundred and thirty seven dollars from my regular.
28:41
Speaker 2: House, third highest, third highest in the nation, behind Hawaii
28:45
Speaker 2: and one other state.
28:46
Speaker 3: We got ours too.
28:48
Speaker 2: It knocked my eyeballs out because I hate air conditioning.
28:51
Speaker 2: I turned it off and Nancy keeps it on for
28:53
Speaker 2: her shelf. And the catch the raight rob are unbelievable.
29:00
Speaker 1: A second is that Alaska. Second they have to heat
29:02
Speaker 1: the up there. Could you imagine what it's like up there.
29:07
Speaker 14: No, it's crazy, but that is a real issue, and
29:10
Speaker 14: that was all. You know. These electric rates get approved
29:13
Speaker 14: by Hokals.
29:14
Speaker 4: People, her appointees, and there is absolutely when when she
29:18
Speaker 4: starts talking out of her stupid mouth about affordability, he's
29:22
Speaker 4: got to hit her hard and he can.
29:23
Speaker 14: And this is a big issue.
29:26
Speaker 2: I concur. I concur just looking at those builds. I
29:29
Speaker 2: know everybody is. It's Larry. I know it's bad where
29:33
Speaker 2: you are. It's ten times worse here. It really you
29:36
Speaker 2: cannot imagine going from like one hundred and twenty five
29:39
Speaker 2: dollars today seven hundred and twenty nine dollars.
29:43
Speaker 1: It's bad across the country. It's happening. This is happening
29:45
Speaker 1: across the country. But third worst, especially if you're up
29:48
Speaker 1: there with what I imagine Alaska is. Rob, thanks a
29:51

31:37
Speaker 2: New York City talking about what else gambling?
31:40
Speaker 15: Well, you know, it's a one in more than two
31:43

32:04
Speaker 15: and fifty six million dollars. It's the eighth largest prize
32:09
Speaker 15: currently in game history. And you know, with all those
32:13
Speaker 15: odds one in more than two hundred ninety two million,
32:15
Speaker 15: it might be why it's so difficult for people to
32:18
Speaker 15: think about what they would do when I put them
32:21
Speaker 15: on the spot.
32:22
Speaker 11: But their gears are turning.
32:23
Speaker 10: I'll pay my tithes, I help my family, I will
32:26
Speaker 10: help the people that really need it, and I will
32:30
Speaker 10: help you know, programs like city Harvests because I used
32:33
Speaker 10: to volunteer them and just help a whole bunch a
32:35
Speaker 10: lot of people.
32:36
Speaker 14: Definitely get out of debt and help the homeless. It's
32:38
Speaker 14: way too many homeless people.
32:39
Speaker 2: It's overwhelming right now.
32:41
Speaker 13: I'm eighty seven years old. I would make sure my
32:44
Speaker 13: children had taken care of my grandchildren, and then I
32:48
Speaker 13: start setting up programs to help people whose grandparents don't
32:53
Speaker 13: have eight hundred billion dollars.
32:55
Speaker 5: Yeah.
32:55
Speaker 15: Now a lot of people putting others first with their answers,
32:58
Speaker 15: and it really all comes down to the living here.
33:01
Speaker 15: According to a report from SOFI, New Yorkers need an
33:04
Speaker 15: average monthly budget of five thousand, five hundred and thirty
33:08
Speaker 15: six dollars or about sixty six thousand dollars a year
33:12
Speaker 15: just to get by. So for people who are just
33:14
Speaker 15: getting by, some working multiple jobs, they tell me on
33:18
Speaker 15: the street it takes some work to get them to
33:20
Speaker 15: think about what they want.
33:22
Speaker 2: I think I wouldn't work anymore, and I travel Europe
33:25
Speaker 2: to be honest.
33:26
Speaker 15: Where's the first place you're going?
33:27
Speaker 1: Copenhagen?
33:28
Speaker 14: That was?
33:29
Speaker 1: Do you have a trip?
33:29
Speaker 4: Pooped?
33:30
Speaker 2: I lived in Copenhagen, and so I would go back
33:32
Speaker 2: today if I could.
33:34
