• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Larry.
• 0:00
  Speaker 2: The news psyche was moving so quickly since we spoke
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: with John Deker, our White House correspondent, in the seven
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: o'clock hour, about what our President Donald Trump was saying
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: yesterday about Iran and also Saudi Arabia allowing them to
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: develop nuclear fuel. He's now added in addendum to that,
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: he's announced, Yeah, I'm gonna let the Crown Prince in
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: Saudi Arabia develop the nuclear fuel, but in return they
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: have to join the Abraham Accords. So that's major news.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: And then secondarily, the Hooties in Yemen. The client state
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: of Iran said they had bombed two Saudi oil tankers
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: going through the Red Sea, and the President has said,
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: for that act trying to expand this war, we are
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: going to bomb the Hooties again in Yemen. So that
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: gives you just two updates in two hours.
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the hooth Is we've been hitting now for twenty
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: five years, if you remember, or during the Biden administration,
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: we launch strikes against them. Obama has launched strikes against them.
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: I think there has to be a certain time where
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: we hold Yemen responsible or we just take them out.
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: Because it's a small group, it's not a big group.
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: It's an offshoot. But yeah, they made the mistake of
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: bragging that they hit a ship, and so they kind
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: of brought this upon themselves. And I'm all for it.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: I think the.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: Houthis have been a pain in the neck for a
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: long time. They've killed a lot of people, they've hit
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: a lot of ships, they've hit our warships in the past,
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: and so I'm all for this.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: This is great news.
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: We're going after the houthis Lan. Let's talk about Mikey Cheryl,
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: because everybody else is now. She's become the talk of
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: the country. If you've been watching CNN, if you've been
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: watching ms Now, Fox News, all the networks. It was
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: bigger news than I expected it to be yesterday. And
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: the reason it was such big news is because, if
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: you remember, the Democrats constantly said, oh no, that never happens.
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: They laughed it off. It was silly. Why there's nobody
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: illegal voting, And she came out and she said no.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: Back in twenty twenty four, yes, we had at least
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: four hundred people voting, but we had six six hundred registered,
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: and she said that she put an end to it,
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: which she didn't. Governor Murphy put an end to it
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: and then kept it secret. But she wanted to come
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: out in front of this because she knew a bigger
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: investigation was coming. Then she blamed some software and she
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: said the software when you went to get a license, which,
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: by the way, if you're here illegally, you shouldn't be
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: getting a license. But anyway, if you wanted to get
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: a license, you get a license, and then they ask
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: you if you also want us to register you to vote. Now,
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: to their credit, all the people or most of the
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: people said no. But for some reason, Mikey Cheryl claims
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: there was a glitch in the software and they were
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: automatically put on the voting rolls. Well, the people that
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: make the software said, we don't even have that capability.
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: I don't know where she got that from. But this
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: is not us. We can show you, and we've had
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: this working in other states. Nobody's had a problem. So
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: it sounds as if there was something the farious going on.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: If it's not the software, then how did all of
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: these people get onto the voting roles unless someone put
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: them there? And if they put them there, who else?
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: So if this is a much bigger investigation, now the
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: DOJ has announced it's going to investigate. This is going
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: to now spread. It's not going to just be in
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: New Jersey. Now they're going to spread this to other states. Curtis,
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: you have said they should definitely be looking at New York.
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: So this is a bigger story than just yesterday Mikey
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: Cheryl trying to get out in front of this. She
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: also lied about it, and it shot off alarms all
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: across the country, in other states and especially in the
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: federal government. So now this is going to be a
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: bigger campaign issue. And what the Republicans are hoping for,
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: Curtis is this will help push the Save America Act
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: through the House. In the Senate. Just it just passed
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: an important hurdle in the House. The problem has always
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: been the Senate. So we're going to see now what happens.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: Well, I think we could have probably peered into the
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: offices of the New Jersey State Attorney General last night.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: With all of the minions working away, they're going to
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: go to court. They're going to try to block you know,
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Department of Justice, Cash Pattel, his people or whoever else
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: catches signed by Trump to come in here and vet
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: the rols. So they're going to try to fill about
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: to that. But I remember yesterday I said as much
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: as New Jersey is at fault, and clearly the governor,
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: the helicopter governor, wanted to get ahead of it because
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: some publication was gonna drop it. That's why politicians do
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: these preemptive press conferences out of nowhere.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: It hadn't even been discussed of late, so boom, she
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: drops it.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: As you said, it wasn't properly vetted out, properly resourced
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: by her.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: She just tried to get ahead of the curve.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: But I'm telling you Tis James is probably likewise planning
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: on doing something in New York because you know they're
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: gonna come to New York too. And in states where
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: you can get a driver's license without being a citizen,
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: where you're supposed to check off a box, now, this
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: is the lunacy of the issue of signing your own box,
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: acknowledging that you know, as a illegal alien, a migrant,
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: you do not have the right to vote. You have
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: to check it and say, I realize this is a
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: federal crime. Well, first off, nobody ever goes after you.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: There have been such miniskuled times that anybody has ever
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: been tried or gone to jail for voting twice, never
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: mind for voting illegally. So you know it's happening here,
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: you know what's happening in other states. I think this
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: gives us an opportunity put aside the politics. We got
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: to clean up these voting roles, the rules. I mean roles,
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: because I don't care what state it is. People die,
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: people move on, people who are on the role who
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: shouldn't be on the rolls. With computers now, it's not
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: a difficult thing to do. You don't have to do
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: it manually. I can't say it enough, But in New
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: York State, which has the most arcane registration rules to
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: qualify candidates, Republicans have the hardest time because they are
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: less Republicans. I got so frustrated in both campaigns twenty
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: twenty one, twenty twenty five. You have to have a
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: certain number of registered Republican voters. It's never equal to
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: the roles because people have moved on. Oh no, they've died.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: So I would always tell the canvas says, look, check
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: to see if they have an American flag outside at
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: that house. Nine times out of ten that's going to
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: be a Republican. Don't knock yourself out going door to
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: do it, because most of those people answering, they're like, huh.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: That's so sad what you said.
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: And I think everybody was nodding their head out there
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: that it's mostly Republicans that would raise the flag. But listen,
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: eighty percent of Americans want ID shown when they vote, sure,
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: and most Americans something like sixty percent want either a
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: birth certificate or a passport shown when you register. You
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: don't have to show it to vote, but when you
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: register you have to prove that you are a US citizen.
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: That It just makes complete sense, and so exactly why
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: So what you said is very logical.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Clean up the roles.
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: I get that we wouldn't have to clean up the
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: roles if that you required ID when people got there
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: to vote. That wouldn't even me necessary. And I, for
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: the life of me, don't understand why the Democrats are
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: fighting something that everybody is for unless they know this
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: has happening, of course, unless they want.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: To cheat, there's no doubt.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: But let me take it one step further, Larry, because
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: we know there's a lot of corruption with Social Security cards.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: You get a number when you're birthed here, or you
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: get one when you come here and you jump through
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: the hoops, and then you get a Social Security number
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: that permits you to be able to go out and work,
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: and you give this to your employee.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: And get benefits. L wrong, but think of this. It's
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: a little card with a number on it. There's no
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: photo ID.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: I can take you, Larry, and it's not just here,
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: but I can take you on the number seven train.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Not to watch the Mets at City Field, but right
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: to seventy fourth and Broadway and walk all the way
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: through Corona.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: And Jackson Heights.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: On tables they're selling fake social Security cards of.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: Real people who've died. No, I guess they haven't the roads. No,
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: I get it.
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: And all of a sudden, Jose who's just newly arrived
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: from Venezuela, is walking around with a Social Security card
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: that says John Smith.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah. You know, most of the people in this area
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: that are listening right now have a democratic representative, because
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: that's just the way it is in New Jersey and
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: Connecticut and in New York. Give me a favor and
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: call them. And this really does resonate. If there's a
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: lot of phone calls. Call them and tell them how
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: upset you are that they're not supporting the Save America Act.
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: They need to hear that from you. Curtis and I
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: talking about it's not going to do anything. If you call,
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: if you're a voter and you call and you register
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: and everything is taken down, I can assure you with that,
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: it will have an impact if there's enough of you.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: Notice when you lose your ID, I can't do anything
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: without my ID. Right, people, you can't do anything. And
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: yet one of the most important things you're ever going
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: to do in your whole life is to ext a
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: side that privilege to vote. And all you have to
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: do to sign up is have a horizon build that
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: says you haven't.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: Sometimes you don't need anything. You just got to sign
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: a document. Hey, you know, I love wahwah. Used to
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: work at a wah Wah.
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: I love them even more because of a story yesterday.
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: There was birth out of wah Wah. We'll explain when
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: we come back. Uh.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: I was thinking, wah wah quick check Southland Corporation seven eleven.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: To seven eleven.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: But let me tell you something, regardless of any of
• 10:37

• 11:02
