  Speaker 1: in for Mark, here's Ken Rosatto.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Oh hello, hello, marcusov today enjoying a long weekend, Former
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: New York City TV news anchor Ken Rosato reported for
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: duty as I stand and salute you all, fellow lover
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: of seven ten WR and certainly big time lover of
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: the Mark Simone Show, my favorite darn radio show ever.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: I listen every single day, and it's good to be
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: here sitting in for the great Mark Simone, the winner
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: of the Big Barrett Media Award. Congratulations again, mister Simone. Sir,
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: you probably best remember me from the twenty years that
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: I spent anchoring the Morning Show, and a good chunk
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: of those years the Noon Show two over Channel seven.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: I did Good Day New York at Channel five before that,
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: just a lot of good years in New York TV.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: These days, I host a daily show on a New
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: Jersey based TV news channel called on New Jersey. You
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: could stream it live or I watch it reruns ATNNJ
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: dot COMNNJ dot com. People saying, what do you mean stream,
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: Go on your phone and open the browser and go
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: Ohnenja dot com and you can see it. Good to
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: be here with you and having fun here on a Friday.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: We got a lot to talk about. Our phone lines
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: are open. We want to hear from you, to take
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: part in our conversation. And the number is eight hundred
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: three two one zero seven ten. Eight hundred three two
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: one zero seven ten. Well, it looks like we're finally
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: out of the heat wave. Most of the tri State's
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: going to be what mid eighties today. You could feel
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: it though it's drier when you walk outside, it doesn't
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: feel sticky and heavy. Still have the smoke not as
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: bad as yesterday. Yesterday it was awful. Just you know,
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: today just feels so much lighter out if you will,
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: And it was, but I know a lot of people,
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: even with mild asthma, had real bad conditions this week.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: And we're really impacted by the smoke. But the air
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: quality once again is considered we have an air quality alert,
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: so it's considered not good for sensitive groups today courtesy
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: of the Canadian wildfire smoke. And I'm finally starting to
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: see online people responding to Canada. Now, what do I
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: mean by that? You'd say, can It's an active nature.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: What are you gonna do? No? No, I mean proper
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: forest management can significantly stop or reduce wildfires significantly. Okay,
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: they do it in states like Florida. Again, Florida. Kent's
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: always talking about Florida. Yeah, you know the when we
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: have the everglas say, I say, week as I live
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: there part time, when we have we have prescribed burns
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: in the Everglades, and that minimizes wildfires for like a
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: day or two in the driest of dry times in
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: January February, which down there is very very dry, you'll
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: have a prescribed burn. Sometimes they'll have a larger burn
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: and for a day you'll get some smoke that wafts,
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: you know, to the west or whatever. That's it, and
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: then it goes away and everything's controlled. You need to
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: kill off, burn off, carbonize if you will, the dying
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: or dead trees, because that's fuel. Somebody explained it to
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: me once when I was coming up in science class
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: in high school that trees are like giant solar cells
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: and batteries. They absorb all the energy from the sun
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: trap it in the form of carbon. If you burn it,
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: it basically is releasing the trapped energy from the sun.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: It's a good way to look at it. Well, of
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: course the left. The left is calling it climate change.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: It's all climate change, because you know, before climate change,
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: we never had wildfires. The earth was like on fire
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: ten million years ago. I don't know what they're talking about,
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: but it helps boost their argument, or at least they
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: think so. Those of us who have brains and think
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: realize they're full of crap. Wildfires have always happened throughout
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: the history of the Earth. They will always happen as humans.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: All we have the power to do is to control
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: or minimize them a little bit. Now we do it
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: in much of the United States. But Canada in the
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: last few years has decided to stop managing their forests.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: They stopped allowing the people from the paper mills and
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: whatnot from harvesting trees, which thinned forest quite a bit.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: They stopped clearing out underbrush in major national forests. And
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: then all you need is a good hit of lightning
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: or somebody who very accidentally, I don't say it's intentional,
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: but somebody goes camping and they don't put out a
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: fire properly, or an ember flickers up from their campfire,
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: and before you know it, you have trees going up
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: all over the place. When I was a reporter. I
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: used to work for the CBS owned station in Miami
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: nineteen ninety eight to two thousand and two. I remember
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: covering a story in the Everglades around the year ninety nine,
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: I guess it was, and I was wearing a I
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: just had my white like a white dress shirt and
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: a tie on, and because it was so hot was
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: the Everglades, and I remember standing about one hundred and
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: fifty feet from what is called a mala luca tree.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: If you live in in the South, you know what
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: a mala luca tree is.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: Up here.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: It's kind of a it's a pine tree. Basically, it's
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: a type of Southern pine. Pine trees are loaded with
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: pine tar and pine oil, so they're extremely flammable. All
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: you need is a spark, and literally it's like putting
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: a spark on a can of gasoline. Until you see
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: it go up, you can't believe anything go up this fast.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: It just goes like that, like a hundred foot tree
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: in a second could go from zero to a million,
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: just right up in flames. And I remember doing a
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: report and I had fire couple of hundred feet behind
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: me and one direction couple of feet hundred feet behind
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: me in another direction, and the camera shot was wide,
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: and the cameraman saw some embers come start blowing in
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: our direction. Up to that point, the wind was blowing
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: away from me. Suddenly it was blowing toward me. While
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: I was live on the air, and while I was
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: live by the air in the middle the report, the
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: maluluca tree fifty seventy five feet behind me went straight up. Thankfully.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: I was wrapping my report and the minute I got
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: done speaking, I ran and I rolled on the floor.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: I could feel my shirt was on fire. It was
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: it was not burning hot, but it was smoking. It
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: was smoldering. I scorched the hair in the back of
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: my head and I felt how hot it was. The
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: point of trying to make is all you need is
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: a little tiny ember, and then you have the fuel
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: in the trees and the whole forest could go up.
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: That's why you have to manage your forests. Canada stopped
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: doing it in about twenty twenty one twenty twenty two
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: under the most liberal regime Trudeau, and then it's been
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: carried on to this day. The liberals don't believe in
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: touching anything environmental, let it be on natural et cetera,
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: et cetera, et cetera. Well, you have to manage things
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: that are in the wild. If you have civilization nearby,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: that doesn't mean you're harming the wild. Like if you
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: have a dog as a pet, you're not harming the
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: dog by grooming it. In fact, if you don't groom it,
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: it can get sick. And that's kind of the way
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: it is with wildfires and forests. So in twenty twenty three,
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: do you know how much carbon was released into the
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: atmosphere by Canada because of their wildfires? All those environmentals
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: who talk about, oh, stop emitting carbon. The US admits
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: so much carbon in it and it hurts our environment. Canada,
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: because of its wildfires, released seven hundred million metric tons
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: of carbon, making it the third largest polluter from any
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: country in the world. That was, in twenty twenty three
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: the third largest polluter, and I think the first or
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: second was because of volcanic eruptions somewhere else. The point
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: I'm trying to make is that was pretty preventable, or
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: at least it could have been significantly less had they
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: just managed their forests. And I want to know what
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: point do Americans get to sue Canadians because of their
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: lack of forest management, because of our asthma attacks, days
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: people had to take off from work, polluting the environment,
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: dirtying up the soil, having to stay indoors when we
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: should be outdoors doing something. How about taking away the
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: few days of summer that we get ninety days of
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: summer and a lot of us have to stay indoors
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: down and can enjoy our summer days courtesy of our
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: liberal friends to the north. Yet immediately the Prime Minister
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: of Canada speaking in French. By the way, I noticed
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: he did that on purpose. He was speaking in French,
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: not in English, so that the sound bites wouldn't be
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: translated and played in English. He talked about the fact
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: that it's the US being the number one global warming contributor,
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: which is not true. By the way, India, Russia and
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: China we fall way down on the list. They are
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: the biggest contributors of carbon etc. Into the atmosphere, not us.
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: But he started to blame us right away. It's like, dude,
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: we don't have wildfires blowing smoke up your backside, so
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: don't blame us for this. In fact, when you consider
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: all the evs and the clean vehicle and the fact
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: that we switched to LED bulbs and whatnot. We've done
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: a lot to conserve. So Canada, shut your mouth, clean
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: up your forest, spend some money. All my Canadian friends
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: no offense. But like every one of my Canadian friends
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: is as cheap as could be. I'm not saying all
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: Canadians are cheap, but like I have twelve Canadian friends
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: who it's like they all have crocodile arms. You know,
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: when it comes to paying the building, I can't reach
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: my wallet. Ken, Yeah, all right, I don't know, Ken,
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: the Canadian dollar is worth a lot less.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: That's why.
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: Whatever.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: Seven ten w r the voice of New York Ken
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: Rosatto win from Mark on a Friday. Did you hear
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: about the lunatic who broke into The Today Show's studio
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: thirty Rock yesterday? He was apparently looking for Al Roker, who,
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: by the way, is one of the sweetest men ever
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: to walk the earth. Al Roker is a great guy.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: This lunatic could not find him. Instead came across the
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: co anchor of the show, Craig Melvin, is also a
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: very very nice guy, saw him on the set. So
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: this guy made it to this set, shouted some kind
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: of racial slur at Craig, and then thankfully NYPD officers
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: got wind of this guy because listen on the set,
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: you think that there were like fifty people there aren't.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: There's like a floor manager, maybe a director or a
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: producer who's wandering around, and then the on air people.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: It's really not like an army of people. So you know,
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: somebody shouldn't be there, and somebody must have spotted this
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: guy called the police, and the police came up. There's
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: so many police outside thirty Rock well, so apparently they
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: got this guy. He said he came to see to
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: find al Roker. We don't know why. He's identified as
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: Andrew Truelove. They say he was not armed. Police believe
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: he got in through a stairwell. So in light of
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: what's happening with Savannah Guthrie and her mom, you would
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: think that there would be cops crawling all over thirty
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Rock to make sure a stranger can't get in through
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: a stairwell. But now hopefully security has stepped up there
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: and thankfully nobody was hurt. But Craig did have to
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: miss the beginning of the third hour of Today because
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: he was dealing with this guy, so thankfully Craig Melvin,
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: he's a big guy. By the way, I would not
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: go up and say anything to Greig Melvin because I
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: think Craig Melvin could have knocked this guy out. But
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: you don't want anyone put in that circumstance. When I
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: was at Channel seven, I remember we had I can't
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: get into details about security, but let's just say there
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: was a lot of it, okay, and it's thankfully there
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: is armed security at all the TV stations and TV
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: networks inside too, and usually they surround the set. There's
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: always a couple of people with weapons in the event
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: something like this happens, thankfully, and then of course NYPD
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: is usually near the outside perimeter of the stations, and
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: thankfully they were there very fast. But this could have
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: been a disaster, a total tragedy, and we just have
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: to keep vigilant at all times. Seven ten w R
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: the Voice of New York. This is Ken Rizotto and
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: from Mark on a Friday Trump administration last night. Did
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: you hear the speech? Wh did you watch it? I
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: think it was disgraceful that several of the networks chose
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: not to air any of it, and then you had
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: like CBS airing part of it, and then they came
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: out early and MS. Now, to their credit, they aired
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: a chunk of it, bits and pieces of it at least.
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: But you know, when you think back to the Obama administration,
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: the Biden administration, there was only one time when the
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: networks chose not to air something from the Obama administration,
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: and the reason was because it was the night that
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: all the networks were supposed to debut their prime time
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: fall lineup of programming and they were worried it would
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: impact their ratings. So I believe what they did was
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: they delay broadcast the president's speech, but they still aired it.
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: Never has there been a president that the networks have
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: treated with so much disrespect, and they, well, ken it's
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: our duty. We shouldn't broadcast the lies of this president.
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: It's not for you to judge that. You can air
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: the president's speech and then later if you want to
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: fact check them, fact check them him speak, it's America.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: And then don't be surprised if the FCC comes in
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: and says, you know what, you are not serving the
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: public interest. Remember, those broadcast licenses belong to you and
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: me as citizens. They don't belong to the TV networks
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: and stations. The TV networks and stations own the buildings
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: or the equipment and pay the salaries of the individuals
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: on the air to broadcast on channel two, four, five, seven, nine, eleven, thirteen,
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: et cetera. To actually transmit a signal. That is a
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: license that you are granted on an interim basis to
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: be renewed every seven years. And if the FCC deems
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: that you are not serving the public interest and someone
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: else can do it better, you lose your license. It
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: has nothing to do with being Republican or Democrat. You
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: have to best serve the public interest because there is
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: a limited amount, as a small pool of licenses available.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: So if someone else can do a better job, just
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: because your channel seven, have you been on the air
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: for seventy five years or whatever, doesn't mean someone else
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: might not do a better job. And I'm not trying
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: to sing a lot seven, by the way, I'm talking
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: about four or five, two, whatever, It doesn't matter the channel.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: I'm just mentioning seven because I used to work there
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: and had a great time there. By the way, but
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: you need to understand that those are public licenses and
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: they are subject to FCC review. Now, it doesn't work
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: in a sense that the FCC can proactively take away
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: your license. It has to be subject to members of
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: the public complaining. Once people come up and complain, then
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: the SEC responds they can't proactively and preemptively stop you
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: from doing something, because then that's squashing freedom of speech,
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: et cetera. But you know, this could get ugly, and
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: I think when we get our mass media, I think
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: this could backfire. Let's put it this way. I think
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: it could backfire for mass media because what could happen
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: is people could say, listen, we didn't have to watch you.
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: We were able to stream the president online. And it
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: just shows how irrelevant TV news has become. It is
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: not something years ago, even ten years ago, people used
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: to rush home six o'clock at night. Five o'clock at night,
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: you put on the new have dinner with the family,
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: and you'd have Walter Cronkite back in the day on today.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: I can't tell you a person who watches what we
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: call the linear broadcast of a TV newscast. I don't
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: know one linear broadcast means you watch it live when
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: it comes on the year five to six or whatever.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: I don't know a person. You may. You may still
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: I know people who watch CNN or Fox News or
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: Newsmax or ms NOW, but I don't know people who
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: are watching local TV news anymore. And it's sad because
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: I loved that industry, certainly, I worked in it for
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: decades and want a whole bunch of Emmy's doing it,
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: if I may pat myself on the back, but it's
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: just sad to see it being a shadow of its
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: former self. We want to know what you have to
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: say about stuff, so you give us a call. Eight
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: hundred three to two one zero seven ten, eight hundred
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: three to two one zero seven ten. It's going to
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: be partly sunny. Today's actually pretty nice ad. It's a
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: lot less human right now. Still going to have some
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: smoke in the air, though it's going to make it
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: hard to breathe. We still have an air quality alert
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: in effect. Tempts make it to the mid eighties coming up.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: Lots of folks still angry with Mayor Zorron Mamdani over
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: the ethnic neighborhood map that left off Little Italy. By
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: the way, I think it also left off Harlem. How
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: the heck do you leave off Harlem, I mean craziness.
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: In just a few we will speak with the head
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: of the Italian American One Voice Coalition about that and more.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: But your calls are next eight hundred and three to two
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: one zero seven ten. It is ten twenty two seven
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: to ten wor Kenrosotto win from Mark. We're coming right.

  Speaker 1: Back now more of the Mark Simone Show on seven
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: ten WR filling in form Mark.
• 16:34
  Speaker 5: Here again is Ken Rosotto and.
• 16:36
  Speaker 6: Very good morning.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: We go right to our busy phones. Joe in Elmwood
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: Park right near Gotfield. Good morning to you, Joe.
• 16:43
  Speaker 7: Okay. Trump's main time topic was the elections. Now we
• 16:48
  Speaker 7: have a saying in Jersey, as you know, I would
• 16:51
  Speaker 7: kiss your behind in Macy's window if you could prove
• 16:54
  Speaker 7: to me that this election that Muslim Mickey was on
• 16:58
  Speaker 7: the up and up, or we'll brain or Governor lamb
• 17:02
  Speaker 7: Chop as I call her.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: You you really like these elected officials, I can tell, uh. Yeah, Look,
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: there are a lot of people who who have those beliefs.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: And I know a lot of people because you know,
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: I do my show in Jersey, my Morning show, and
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: we get a lot of people who call and say,
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: how on Earth could Mickey Cheryl get you know, more
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: votes than than Governor Murphy and a lot more votes. Look,
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: it is what it is. Until until we get the
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: Save Act and we can confirm that people who are
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: citizens get to vote. I think until that happens, we're
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: gonna have We're gonna have issues in terms of being
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: a having a sense of confidence in the vote. And
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: that's why the idea that the Democrats are so reticent
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: to being able to confirm who can vote before they vote,
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: it's a little annoying. Vincent fort Pierce, Florida, good morning.
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah, good morning.
• 17:54
  Speaker 6: You know you're the first person on air to mention
• 17:57
  Speaker 6: the president's speech last night. I listened to Sean Addity
• 18:00
  Speaker 6: last night, and you know, he just brushed over it
• 18:02
  Speaker 6: and said the President made claims of releasing documents tomorrow,
• 18:06
  Speaker 6: then he went into Iran, and then this morning I
• 18:09
  Speaker 6: watched Maria the same thing.
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: Nobody's talked about it, but.
• 18:12
  Speaker 6: I think part of it is because Fox gave seven
• 18:17
  Speaker 6: hundred million dollars without going to court to dominion machines
• 18:21
  Speaker 6: in that lawsuit, and Trump mentioned not by name, but
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: he mentioned those machines. And if you look at all
• 18:27
  Speaker 6: these elections that all these Democrats are fighting and screaming.
• 18:31
  Speaker 6: You mentioned New Jersey, and you know, the numbers just
• 18:34
  Speaker 6: didn't make sense. You saw what happen in LA, you
• 18:37
  Speaker 6: saw what happened in twenty twenty, and nobody would be
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: fighting for illegal aliens if they weren't using him to vote.
• 18:44
  Speaker 6: And I remember Rudy years ago was am with Sean
• 18:46
  Speaker 6: Hannity and he talked about how much voter fraud was
• 18:49
  Speaker 6: going on during his elections, and he said that what
• 18:52
  Speaker 6: they would do is they would take buses from precinct
• 18:54
  Speaker 6: to precinct full of homeless and they would vote under
• 18:58
  Speaker 6: different names, and he said they would eliminate some of them.
• 19:01
  Speaker 6: You know, they were able to get some of them,
• 19:03
  Speaker 6: and that's what helped him in his reelection.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: He said, but it's make a mistake.
• 19:07
  Speaker 6: These people are voting, and now that they have the illegals,
• 19:10
  Speaker 6: they're really going to town and these people want them.
• 19:12
  Speaker 6: And you know Trump mentioned that there's two hundred twenty thousand.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: Then I don't mean only because we're coming up on
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: the bottom. I'm with you on a lot of this.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: In that look, I've said to Democrat friends of mine,
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: very liberal friends, I said, if we knew for a
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: fact that the people coming across the border, we're all conservatives,
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: and they couldn't wait to get here and vote quote
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: family values unquote and vote for conservatives, you would have
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: a wall built so damn fast that we would be
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: out of cement in the rest of the country. And then,
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: and my liberal friends always chuckle because they know it's true.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: They know it's true. So I think there's a lot
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: of truth to what you're saying. And if we're not
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: even talking about the fact that illegal aliens are here
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: and voting illegally as much as the even if they
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: just settle in blue cities like New York and Philadelphia,
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: et cetera, that keeps the number of Congressional representatives high,
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: and the Democrats who can vote who live there now
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: have more Democrats to vote for, and that causes just
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: as much harm as if the illegals are voting on
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: their own. Hey, let me ask you, how is my
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: fair state of Florida. You know, I live in Fort Lauderdale.
• 20:14
  Speaker 6: I just got that was up in New Jersey. I
• 20:16
  Speaker 6: have a house down the shore still, and I got
• 20:18
  Speaker 6: to tell you it was hotter up there.
• 20:19
  Speaker 8: Than yes on here I love.
• 20:21
  Speaker 6: I live on the Indian River, so it's you know,
• 20:23
  Speaker 6: you get a little bit of the breeze from that.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: You're not allowed to call it that. It's the Native
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: American River. What is wrong with you, Vince?
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: The way change names. I love that changes name.
• 20:34
  Speaker 9: I know.
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: Listen, I can't wait to get back down, my friend.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: I'll go in the middle of July. I love my
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: state of Florida so much, but I also love my
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: state of New Jersey. And then have a go and brother,
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: take it easy. We go to filling queens.
• 20:44
  Speaker 10: Good morning, Hey, good job campaigns going back to Hubert Humphrey.
• 20:51
  Speaker 10: And I've seen a lot of fraud. I've had, oh
• 20:55
  Speaker 10: watch her, and I'm an attorney. Also, machines impounded. I've
• 21:00
  Speaker 10: seen another type of fraud where at senior citizen homes
• 21:05
  Speaker 10: and disabled homes, the liberal social workers and aides are
• 21:09
  Speaker 10: voting for people, you know, instead of the people voting
• 21:13
  Speaker 10: for themselves. And even when Congresswoman Grace Ming first got elected,
• 21:20
  Speaker 10: there were a huge amount every school I ever worked at,
• 21:24
  Speaker 10: maybe they'd be one or two.
• 21:29
  Speaker 4: Affi David ballots.
• 21:31
  Speaker 10: Every ed had fifteen twenty twenty five and it was
• 21:35
  Speaker 10: all frauds.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: And Phil, let me guess they let me guess, Phil,
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: They all went for the Republicans, right.
• 21:42
  Speaker 10: Yeah, they voted for Ronald Reagan.
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah not now, I hear you. And this is as old.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: I just want to know why it always seems to
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: be the left that does this, and we just tolerted
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: republic go ahead.
• 21:57
  Speaker 10: The Democrats are criminal enterprise, an ongoing criminal enterprise.
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: That's it.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: Because the idea is power, power, power is more important
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: than moles and everything else. If that's it, he who
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: rules makes all right, my friend, we appreciate you. We're
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: gonna quickly go to our friend Vincent. Hello, good morning.
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: Hello. I'm sorry, Ken, it's not Vincent. It's Robert. Oh,
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: Robert Vincent, go right ahead.
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: No, no, I'll take Robert. It says you're Vincent on
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: the on the list, but I would be more than
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: happy to take Robert. We got about a minute.
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: Go ahead, Robert, Thank you, Ken. I'll make it fast.
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: So the other part what President Trump was talking about
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: about last night, I don't remember when Tulsea Gabbard went
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: to that warehouse for the votes, and she they said,
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: why is she going there? All of a sudden, evidence
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: of documents started coming up and I don't remember that. Also,
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: that same company that had the voter that that that
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: unfortunately Fox paid almost eight hundred million dollars to UH,
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: they dropped their lawsuit against Mike the pillow guy. Now
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: why would they do that? It could have crushed him.
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: But right after she did that, they're saying that stuff
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: has come out that could show that there was malfeasance
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: that we don't.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: But we don't. Honestly, we don't know that. I mean
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: when we say there's stuff anyone could post whatever on X,
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: we don't know. And listen, I'm not saying there is
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: or isn't. I'm just saying I don't know, and I
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: don't think anyone knows unless if there was stuff, it'll
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: be made public and it'll come out because there's a
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: lot of money involved here on both sides, so it'll happen.
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: No, absolutely, But the other point I wanted to make
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: that I told you Cole screen it, which I agree.
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: Whatever what everybody is saying, how did the major media say,
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: you know what, we decided what he's saying isn't relevant
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: to the American people? And is that? Is that not?
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: Also like, well, here's the way we deal.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: Here's the way we tell them to go screw themselves.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: If you're pardon my expression, don't watch them, don't watch them, listen, listen,
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: right and that's the problem for them right now. Do
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: you know the TV news is down to about thirty
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: to thirty five percent viewership of what it was ten
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: years ago. That's a America's way single screw yourself. We
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: don't need you. We have our Fox News, Newsmax, et cetera,
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: and we could get our stuff online. And if you
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: want to act like this and be one sided, you
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: can go to hell. It's as simple as that. We
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: appreciate you, Robert, and thank you for being so kind
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: in the beginning saying that Vincent could take your space,
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: but I would never do that to you. Seven ten
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: woar the Voice of New York.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: This is the Mark Simone Show on seven ten wi
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: Ben from Mark Today, here's Ken Rosato seven ten wore.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: You are listening to the Marx Simon Show on a
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: Friday morning. Good to be filling in for Mark, who
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: is off today for long weekend. You know Mayory Zorn
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: Mamdani's administration is under fire because he recently released a
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: map of New York City's ethnic neighborhoods and conspicuously left
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: out the city's white ethnic neighborhoods, places like Woodlawn and
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: the Bronx, famous for its Irish population. Borough Park, Brooklyn,
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: famous as an enclay for the ultra orthodox Jews, history
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: of Queens, populated by up to forty thousand Greek Americans,
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: and one of the most famous and iconic ethnic neighborhoods
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: in all of America, certainly of New York. Little Italy
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: well over one hundred and fifty years old. And Mamdani's
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: response to the omissions, Well, I'll let him speak for himself.
• 25:14
  Speaker 11: So this map was initially created by the prior administration
• 25:17
  Speaker 11: in twenty twenty three, and when we inherited it, we
• 25:20
  Speaker 11: added a few additional neighborhoods. It's clearly not an exhaustive
• 25:24
  Speaker 11: list of the more than two hundred ethnic communities that
• 25:27
  Speaker 11: call our city home, and we're going to be making
• 25:29
  Speaker 11: additional changes in the future to reflect that, and that
• 25:32
  Speaker 11: includes adding Little Italy to the map.
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so Little Italy's an afterthought. It's like, yeah, we
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: so get this. Get this. He added three Chinatowns, he
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: added two little guyanas he added a little Bod Tibet.
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: I didn't know that Tibet was known as Bho d Bod,
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: but I guess it is two little Mexicos. But he
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: couldn't think about this place called Little Italy. Twenty eight
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: of the thirty ethnic neighborhoods on that map, by the way,
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: are listed that we're listed are non white, which is
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: great and we should be celebrating it. But you don't
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: eliminate certain cultures for others. So much for being mayor
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: of all the people. So right now we go to
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: our friend Andre Demino, president of the Italian American One
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: Voice Coalition, to discuss why these omissions matter. Good morning
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: to you, Andre.
• 26:19
  Speaker 12: Good morning ken, Good to be with you, Good to
• 26:21
  Speaker 12: be have.
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: You, I should say, And what was your reaction, Andre,
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: when you first saw the map and you realized, of
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: all places, little Italy was nowhere to be found.
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: It's just a disgrace.
• 26:31
  Speaker 12: I mean, you know this is for me. This was
• 26:35
  Speaker 12: absolutely a deliberate action. You've got to remember that Mayor
• 26:38
  Speaker 12: mon Dami, before he was mayor, he gave the finger
• 26:41
  Speaker 12: to the Columbus statue and said take it down. So
• 26:43
  Speaker 12: I think we know where he stands with respect to
• 26:46
  Speaker 12: Italian Americans and Little Lily. It's such an important part
• 26:48
  Speaker 12: of New York City history. The Italians helped built this country.
• 26:52
  Speaker 12: Little Lialy was the stepping stone for so many millions
• 26:55
  Speaker 12: that came into here. Even my own family came through
• 26:57
  Speaker 12: Mott Street.
• 26:58
  Speaker 10: In Little Italy.
• 26:59
  Speaker 12: So leaving that out, as well as leaving off the
• 27:01
  Speaker 12: Jewish communities and the Irish communities, it's apparent what he's doing,
• 27:05
  Speaker 12: he's reshaping New York.
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and again everybody's well, I love the fact that
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: we have so many cultures of New York.
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: Don't you love going and trying the different food and
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: China Town in Middle Mexico. I think that's wonderful. This
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: is not about you don't deserve to be here, It's
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: about we should. I mean, you just got to be careful.
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: If you're going to start playing the game of putting
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: certain cultures on, make sure you have all.
• 27:28
  Speaker 5: The cultures on.
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: You can't just conveniently forget places like Little Italy and
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: Little Greece. I mean, come on, And that's that's the feeling.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: It's like, well, you know what you're yesterday. This is tomorrow.
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: And that's definitely is the sense I think a lot
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: of people I've spoken to have had that you guys
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: were here one hundred years ago, you're irrelevant. Now this
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: is the direction we're headed. Am I wrong?
• 27:51
  Speaker 12: No, You're a hundred percent right. In fact, you know
• 27:53
  Speaker 12: where there's a big uproar from lots of Italian American
• 27:56
  Speaker 12: organization and I'm pleased they did that. And his response
• 27:58
  Speaker 12: that you played up front, you know, he said, oh, okay,
• 28:01
  Speaker 12: now we're going to put little little back, but that
• 28:02
  Speaker 12: was after the tremendous response that was there. But candidly, Ken,
• 28:06
  Speaker 12: this has been a number of days and he hasn't
• 28:08
  Speaker 12: put it back yet, right, And he did say in
• 28:10
  Speaker 12: the future what future one hundred years from there?
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: No, once he's out of office, it'll be his parting gift.
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: And remember this map was released even though he says
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: it was created under the previous administration. Notice, the previous
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: administration did not release it, maybe because they knew it
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: wasn't complete. That's why they didn't release it. And before
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: your people, your nine year olds that you have working
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: for you, nine year old socialists that you have working
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: for you, before you release a map like this, Maybe
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: have somebody check it over. It's like a four year
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: old doing a color finger painting before you bring it
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: to the art teacher. Maybe mommy and daddy'll check it over.
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: And that's what you need. An adult in the room
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: in this administration, and it feels like there isn't one.
• 28:52
  Speaker 12: Well, not just an adult, but I think you need
• 28:54
  Speaker 12: an adult that doesn't want to change New York because
• 28:56
  Speaker 12: that's really where he's heating, you know, to eliminate the
• 28:59
  Speaker 12: really the the heartbeat of what started this city, the
• 29:03
  Speaker 12: Italian Americans, Irish Americans, the Jewish that have been here
• 29:06
  Speaker 12: for so long.
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: I mean, I think it's.
• 29:08
  Speaker 12: Obvious what he's doing to me.
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: As I said, it's deliberate.
• 29:11
  Speaker 13: Yeah.
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: And this is by the way, Andre Demino, the president
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: of the Italian American One Voice Coalition. Their website is
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: IAOVC dot org if you want to check them out.
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: And they get upset when things like the Columbus statues
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: get torn down or literal itally gets forgotten from maps.
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: It's to make sure that people realize the positive contributions
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: of Italian Americans to our culture and not at the
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: expense of other cultures. In fact, just the opposite. You
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: have reached out to members and talked to members of
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: the Irish and Jewish communities and Greek communities whose historic
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: neighborhoods were not highlighted as well.
• 29:45
  Speaker 9: Correct.
• 29:47
  Speaker 12: Oh, absolutely correct, and we're looking for that outreach. We're
• 29:50
  Speaker 12: looking to unify people. In fact, you didn't mention it,
• 29:52
  Speaker 12: but we've actually formed an alliance with the Native American
• 29:55
  Speaker 12: Guardians Association because they feel that they're being underpression now
• 29:59
  Speaker 12: with removing names like the Redskins and the Chiefs, which
• 30:02
  Speaker 12: they're proud of. So we've got a like feeling between
• 30:05
  Speaker 12: us and Native Americans as well as the other groups
• 30:07
  Speaker 12: that you mentioned. We should unify, even though they're trying
• 30:10
  Speaker 12: to divide us and conquer us by dividing us, we've
• 30:13
  Speaker 12: got to unify together. All groups should come together and
• 30:16
  Speaker 12: be strong against these types of approaches.
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: And that's what makes New York greate when we all
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: do come together as opposed to battling one another. It's
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: not about having distinct neighborhoods and you stay there and
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: I stay here. It's about celebrating the differences. The differences
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: are great, let's celebrate them. Let's go and you know listen.
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: I know so many Italians, and I'm sure you do too,
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: Italian Americans whose favorite food isn't Italian, and they'll go
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: into the Thai neighborhood because they got great Thai food
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: or whatever. It's about celebrating the goodness of each other's
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: culture and the richness while still coming together as Americans
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: and being proud. I don't want to sound Pollyannish, but
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: it is part of the joy of being in this country. Otherwise,
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: you can go to any other country in the world
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: if you want a monolithic field, but here it's about
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: the melting pot and the joy of that. But when
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: you leave out groups, you're basically saying you need not apply,
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: you don't need to be here. And the whole purpose
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: of this map being released when it was andre was
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: for the FIFA World Cup visitors. So now for the
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: mayor to very disingenuously say, oh, well, we'll get to it,
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: we'll release it with little Italy when after all the
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: FIFA people have gone. They're leaving on Sunday or Monday,
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: so they won't be here anymore. So then you're going
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: to tell them, oh, by the way, there was a
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: little Italy here.
• 31:22
  Speaker 12: No exactly as I said. His reaction really was because
• 31:26
  Speaker 12: of the uproar that came up. But now maybe he
• 31:28
  Speaker 12: thinks it's going to subside. But we're not going to
• 31:29
  Speaker 12: let it go. We've got to continue to be vigilant
• 31:32
  Speaker 12: because after all, with this, now, Ken, are we looking
• 31:35
  Speaker 12: at maybe the sand Gennaro Fest not getting a permit,
• 31:38
  Speaker 12: Are we looking at the Columbus Day Parade not being
• 31:41
  Speaker 12: able to be taken this that we had this year.
• 31:44
  Speaker 12: You know, we've got to be vigilant and keep our
• 31:46
  Speaker 12: eyes on it and make sure that these things don't
• 31:48
  Speaker 12: change us.
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: Well, you're absolutely right, and we are glad that your organization,
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: our organization I say our or I don't just mean
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: the Italian Americans. I mean you need organizations to be
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: vigilant like this, whether you are a of Italian extraction
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: or not. And we're happy and glad and proud that
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: you are on it. So we appreciate Andre Domino, president
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: of the Italian American One Voice Coalition, to discuss why
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: it is so important not to omit groups from the
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: ethnic map in New York. Andre, thanks for coming on today.
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: Thank you, Ken, Take care you too, all.
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: Right, Sonny Hot and humid again today it's going to
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: be probably mid eighties, not as hot as it has been.
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: But remember we still have a problem with the air.
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: There's an air quality alert in effect, so if you
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: have problems breathing, just kind of stay indoors as much
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: as you can, or use a mask because it is
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: not good if you have asthma. Phone lines are open.
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten. Eight hundred
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: three two one zero seven ten. This is Ken Rozanto
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: in for Mark Simone on your Friday seven to ten.
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: Wo are those phone calls next? We're coming right back.
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: It's the Mark Simone Show live from the woor Life Studios.
• 33:01
  Speaker 5: Guest hosting for Mark today, here's Ken Rosatto Ada.
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: Very good morning. Let us go straight to our busy phones.
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: Let's take Pam in New Jersey.
• 33:09
  Speaker 14: Good morning, Japan, Good morning. I just read that Senator
• 33:14
  Speaker 14: Murreno m O r I n O of Ohio is
• 33:18
  Speaker 14: going to present legislation to sanction Canada about not handling
• 33:23
  Speaker 14: their forest properly, and some other senators are going in
• 33:27
  Speaker 14: on it with him, and I told I called up
• 33:30
  Speaker 14: several different senators and congress people to advise them to
• 33:33
  Speaker 14: look for that legislation.
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: Good, well, I'm glad we're doing something, but you know
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: what that's going to do. Nothing? All it does, and
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: first of all, every Democrat will vote against it, and
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: you'll get the couple of wishy washy Republicans will vote
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: against it. And if it does pass, Canada is going
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: to say, and what should I do with this? Wipe
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: my nose? I'm with you and I appreciate it, Pam
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: and I one hundred percent. But you know the way
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: it is, Canada is going to say, oh, really, what
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: does this mean?
• 34:00
  Speaker 14: When they killed We're going to kill those ostriches. I
• 34:04
  Speaker 14: called the embassy Canadian embassy in New York and the
• 34:08
  Speaker 14: consulate in Alberta and Vancouver and they were not nice.
• 34:13
  Speaker 14: But that doesn't stop me.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: Well, don't go for you, and Pam, I'm not and
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: I'm not belittling you. I love what you're doing and
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: I love the fact that you're passionate about it. I'm
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: with you. I don't disagree with you at all. The
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: problem is all the leftists in Canada are so brainwashed.
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: They are still they're blaming Trump and the US for
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: the wildfires. They think because of our carbon emissions in
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: global warming boots why the forest fires open. Because forest
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: fires haven't happened in Canada for a million years. It
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: just just happened when Trump was elected. Don't you know that, Pam.
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: It's just ridiculous, it's happening.
• 34:46
  Speaker 14: That's why paper towels are thirty five dollars. Yeah, because
• 34:50
  Speaker 14: they closed down the lumber mills in our country too.
• 34:54
  Speaker 14: And the lumber mills used to go through with their
• 34:56
  Speaker 14: big machinery and they used to drive through and create
• 35:00
  Speaker 14: eight clearcuts and take out their debris. That's why you
• 35:03
  Speaker 14: didn't have the forest fires that we're having now, Pam.
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: I remember the great, late great russial Umby used to
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: talk about this that for every tree that the lumber
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: mills cut down, they had to plant seven new ones.
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: So it was truly a renewable resource. But yet the
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: liberals didn't want to hear it because once they get
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: in their minds that it's evil and bad, just like
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: fossil fuels, evil bad, evil bad, nuclear bad evil bad. Basically,
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: any other life form is allowed to exist on Earth,
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: but humans. Humans are not the only life form. They
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: cannot have survival of the fittest. We should just go
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: in a cave and roll up in a ball and
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: die and let the roaches take over and whatnot. That's
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: the sickness, the self loathing sickness that is liberalism in
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: this country. But I appreciate you, Pam, thanks and thanks
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: for listening to the Mark Simone Show. We go to
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: Bob in Montvale, New Jersey, up near the wonderful border
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: of Ruckland County, New York. Good morning to you, Bob, oh,
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: good morning to you.
• 36:00
  Speaker 15: Thanks for taking the call. But you know, forget this
• 36:03
  Speaker 15: Mandani map. Have you ever looked at like the statistics
• 36:08
  Speaker 15: from Ellis Island? And the reason why I bring it
• 36:10
  Speaker 15: up is all these democrats out that this new wave
• 36:14
  Speaker 15: of immigrants slash illegals have like helped build this country.
• 36:19
  Speaker 15: But if you look at the statistics from Ellis Island,
• 36:23
  Speaker 15: where immigrants who truly built this country, you know it's it's,
• 36:28
  Speaker 15: you know, eye popping that the top five countries are Italy, Austria, Hungary, Russia,
• 36:35
  Speaker 15: Germany and Island. I don't see little Mogadishu. I don't
• 36:40
  Speaker 15: see little this or a little that there. So Mundani
• 36:44
  Speaker 15: and even the helicopter pilot here in New Jersey should
• 36:48
  Speaker 15: really look at the history and it really gets me
• 36:53
  Speaker 15: stick actually again. And I'm sorry to sound like emotional,
• 36:57
  Speaker 15: but aren't we sick of hearing.
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: Bob Bob bob. Don't you understand the mind of a communist?
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: Don't you understand the mind of a guy? See No,
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: because we're we're libertarian conservatives. This is this is the
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: way they manipulate, don't you see. So let's make the
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: poor migrant from Tibet who has about three dollars in
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: their pocket. And I'm not belittling or making fun I'm
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: just illustrating reality. Let's make them feel more secure about
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: themselves in the country so they will follow me and
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: vote me into office as a communist. And then once
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: I'm in power, I take away the guns by having
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: the strongest gun control laws in the country in the
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: United States, meaning nobody can have a gun, even good
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: law abiding citizens, and we charge confiscatory tax rates and
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: we have total control. Meanwhile, he comes from a millionaire
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: family where his mother was wealthy, his father was wealthy
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: and never worked a day in his life. The only
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: time he did is ripe video. Mommy directed it. And
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: he becomes elected mayor.
• 37:58
  Speaker 15: It's said, it's really as said and it does kind
• 38:01
  Speaker 15: of get just sick in a way. But if you
• 38:03
  Speaker 15: look at really just from a statistical point of view,
• 38:07
  Speaker 15: you know, just it puts them all down. But I
• 38:10
  Speaker 15: guess we kind of ignore it all somehow, and it's
• 38:14
  Speaker 15: a shame.
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: It's because you have the sick ephants in the mainstream
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: media who love this. They love him, they love the
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: socialist left. This is all part of their agenda. Believe me,
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: I worked in the industry long enough. It is loaded
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: and polluted by people on the far left, and no
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: other opinions need apply. We appreciate you, called Bob, Thank
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: you so much, and have a good weekend. Partly sunny today,
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: lots of smoke in the air still though, making it
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: hard to breathe. Heights mid eighties. It's Ken rizottowin from
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: Mark on Your Friday. Coming up later, we speak to
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: the secretary of the New York State Conservative Party about
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: the new Senate bill that would codify or codify President
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: Trump's Day one executive order clarifying birthright citizenship. Seven ten

• 39:16
  Speaker 2: going to build through the day partly sunny skies. You

  Speaker 2: Hannity and then I just have it onto the background
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: all day. Just put it on. And as they used
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: to say our sister station at Z one hundred, they
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: used to say, put it on and rip the nava.
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: And we recommend you do that for those here at

• 40:44
  Speaker 2: All right, So, so much to talk about today. Phone
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: lines are open. We'd love for you to call take
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: part in the conversation. Eight hundred three to two one
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: zero seven ten. Eight hundred three to two one zero
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: seven ten. The Trump administration, of course, everybody there now
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: on full focus mode. After the speech of the President
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: gave last night. Of course, President very upset and his
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: administration upset with a few of the TV networks that
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: refused to air the president's address. Do they have to
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: air the president's address? Absolutely none. They are not required
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: to by law. And there have been issues or times
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: in the past, i should say on issues, but times
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: in the past, one time under Obama, one time under
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: Biden where presidential addresses to the nation were not carried,
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: but it was different circumstances. Under the Obama administration, it
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: happened to be that the president wanted to have a
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: prime time address on the night that all the TV
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: networks were airing the debut of their fall lineup, and
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: they had been promoting it for weeks and weeks. So
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: what a lot of the what a lot of the
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: networks did was delay broadcast the president's address and they
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: carried it in full. In the case of President Biden,
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: there was something and I'm forgetting exactly what issue it was,
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: but it was an extremely controversial issue, and they did
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: air parts of his address, they just didn't err it
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: in full to absolutely say we're not going to carry it.
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: And then those who did carry it, who are the
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: leftist networks, decided to fact check as they went along.
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: It's just so obscenely offensive. Let the president speak. After
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: he speaks, you want to go point by point and
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: attack and final though you never ever did it to
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: Obama and you certainly only rarely did it to the
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: sleepy guy Joe, but you do it to Trump, and inevitably,
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: what he ends up saying that you fact check as
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: wrong three months from now always turns out to be right.
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: But you don't go back and correct yourselves, do you?
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: And yes, I'm speaking to all the networks I formally
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: worked at. I have worked at ABC, NBCCBS and Fox
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: all at different times. I've worked for all of those
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: networks at various times, and I just know why it happens.
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: It happens because the newsrooms are polluted with people who
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: are far are left in their political opinion, not even
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: that the people at the top are that way, although
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: in many cases they are. It's that when you locate
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: your network in Manhattan and the employees are all from
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: the New York City area, they live here, in many cases,
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: they're born and raised here, they were educated here, there's
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: going to be a certain mindset. And that mindset is
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: anti Republican. It's anti conservative, anti family, anti traditional, and
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: that's what you get. So when you hire people, you
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: can't hire people that commute in from two hundred miles away,
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: So you hire people from Manhattan or from the boroughs,
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: and just by percentage, they tend to be four to
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: one or five to one liberal, and so that translates
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: into what goes on the air. So it's not a
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: conspiracy at the top. It's not that the chairman of
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: the network says, this is what we'll do. It doesn't
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: work that way. It's just the day to day people
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: in charge, the managers, you know, who select what stories
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: go on the air, how we cover the stories. They
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: tend to be left. And if it comes right down
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: to we will air President Trump's speech in its entirety
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: as is, or we will nitpick it to death, or
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: we will instead air a special report on the environment,
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: They're going to go with the environment because that's the mentality,
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: that's the way they were raised. They believe Republican bad
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: anything to the left of Republican good, and that's what
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: ends up making it to air. And that's why they
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: have no audience left. They have literally lost their audience.
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: TV News, every channel, every network is literally scratching and
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: scraping for survival. Do you know that local TV news stations,
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: the NBCCBSABC, etc. Stations, the locally owned stations New York, LA, Chicago.
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: Do you know what they used to bill in advertising
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: revenue on average? And I'm not speaking with any insider
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: information here. I'm giving you stuff that's been in Business
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: Week and it's been published. Back in the year twenty fifteen,
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: if you were a Channel four in New York, or
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: a Channel two or a Channel seven, your advertising revenue
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: was in the neighborhood of three hundred to four hundred
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: and fifty million dollars just from that local station. Can
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: you imagine literally a printing press for cash. You know
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: what it's down to now about one hundred and twenty
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: five to one hundred and fifty million. Now you say, ken,
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: that's a lot of money. Yeah, it's a lot of money.
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: But remember the cost of doing business has risen substantially.
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: The networks are doing poorly in terms of their advertising
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: revenue on a national scale, so they rely on their
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: locally owned station revenue. They pull a lot of that
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: money out. Used to be that a Channel four if
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: they made four hundred million dollars, they got to keep
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: three hundred and fifty million to for their operating expenses,
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: et cetera, et cetera. Now say a network, and I'm
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: not this is I'm making a lot of assumptions here,
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: but based on what I've read and what I know,
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: a network will pull out ninety ninety five percent of
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: the income from that station, and the station isn't left
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: with a whole lot to run itself. So the TV
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: news anchors, who used to make two three million a
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: year in the eighties and nineties, for the main anchors,
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: they don't make anywhere near that today. You're lucky if
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: you get somebody who makes between five hundred thousand and
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: a million as the main anchor, and then you get
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: people making a lot less than that in other anchor positions.
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: And again I'm not speaking about any specific person, and
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: I haven't looked at any contracts in a lot of years,
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: so I'm not speaking out of school. I'm just telling
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: you the industry is changing. The industry is dying. Broadcast
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: TV news is just not go to must see TV
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: like it used to be used to be. It came
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: up from work at five five thirty, you took off
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: your shoes. You know you looked at the mail you
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: put on the six o'clock news today, I couldn't tell
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: you one person, including people who work in the industry,
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: who do that. And that is the problem. So you
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: know they call that linear broadcast. Today people are not
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: watching linear broadcasts, meaning when it's on the air. Instead
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: they tend to stream a lot. Older folks are still
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: doing it. Anyone under fifty forty five not so much.
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: Well do you remember also this case of the Trump
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: administration talking about wanting to replace a lot of the
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: US attorneys around the country. All right, So I don't
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: know if you heard this story. The new Seattle US
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: attorney was just appointed the other day. His name is
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: Roger Rogoff. Literally minutes after he was sworn in two
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: days ago, he got fired by the Trump administration. So
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: this is what happened. See, district court judges are allowed
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: to appoint a temporary US attorney if an interim appointees
• 47:39
  Speaker 2: term expires without a formal presidential nomination. So there was
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: an interim US attorney in the Seattle area and that
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: individual he did his one hundred and twenty days, it expired,
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: and at that point the judges there are seventeen of
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: them in the Western District of Washington. They get to
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: appoint a US attorney. Now the president doesn't have to
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: keep it. In fact, under President Obama, there were seventeen,
• 48:07
  Speaker 2: oh no, there were fourteen, I'm sorry, fourteen people judges
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: US attorneys, not judges US attorneys around the country. The
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: first day Obama took office, wiped them all out, got
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: rid of them all because they were Bush appointees. Then
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: over the ensuing months, there were another ninety seven that
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: the Obama administration terminated. They did it quietly, It never
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: made the news. Everyone kept their mouths shut. It was good.
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: Nobody sued, nobody complained because it was just the assumption
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: you serve at the discretion and the pleasure of the president.
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: And if the president comes in and says, I don't
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: want this guy, I want that guy, whether their personal
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: friends or not, that's just been accepted. But remember Trump
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: is Satan incarnate according to the Democrats. So the minute
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: the Trump administration, via the acting Attorney General, sent the
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: termination letter to this US attorney Roger Rogoff, who by
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: the way, is a hardcore leftist in Seattle appointed by
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: seventeen a hardcore leftist federal judges who were all appointed
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: themselves by Obama and Biden. So of course the person
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: they would select is a hard core liberal, and the
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: Trump administration they have a right to put in who
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: they want. So they said, I'm sorry, you're terminated. Will
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: appoint another interim US attorney until a person could get
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: approved by the Senate. So the interim attorney would take
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: that position, and then you need fifty one votes in
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: the Senate to confirm that person, and then they get
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: to serve. Okay, so of course you can't just go
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: away peacefully and gracefully.
• 49:42
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 49:42
  Speaker 2: So now Roger Rogoff is now suing the administration, making
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: a big deal about it the TV news in Seattle.
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: If you watch it, and I saw some of it online,
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: you would think the president sent a noose in the
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: mail to have this guy hung. It is just unbelievable.
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: They just can't accept. This is the democrats of view
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: of the universe. When we're in power, we will appoint
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: all these people, and you have to shut up. When
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: you're in power, we will appoint all these people, and
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: you have to shut up. So you never get to
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: appoint anybody. If you're a Republican, we always have the
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: final say because we want power. Do you remember when
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: Senator Chucky Chuck Schumer, hellow, good to see you. By
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: the way, Chuck Schumer, who, as Mark talked about yesterday,
• 50:23
  Speaker 2: farted on the floor of the Senate. Did you hear that?
• 50:26
  Speaker 2: Do we have the sound? I think we have. I'll
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: find it. I'll look, I'll look for the sound of
• 50:30
  Speaker 2: Schumer fart. I'm sure. Let me look through the Simone files.
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: I'll find it here and we'll fight. Or if you
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: find it is he forwarded to me, we have to.
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: It is rather disgusting. And as Simone was talking about yesterday, Mark,
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: you can hear Chuck Schumer laughing as he farts. I mean,
• 50:48
  Speaker 2: kind of a gross guy. If he's in front of
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: hundreds of you're in front of one hundred US senators
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: and the world watching on TV, and you fart and
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: you just chuckle about it, says a lot about what
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: he must be like privately. But nonetheless, he had announced
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: on the floor of the Senate on December twenty six,
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty four, he announced that two hundred and thirty
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: five judges were just appointed by Joe Biden to quote
• 51:11
  Speaker 2: preserve Biden's liberal legacy. He went on to say that
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: Democrats would quote rely on the judges appointed by Biden
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: to protect his White House legacy from President Donald Trump
• 51:24
  Speaker 2: and what he called the most extreme elements of Trump's agenda.
• 51:27
  Speaker 2: So that's why when you hear everything that the President
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: signs an executive order for, or every piece of legislation
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: that the President pushes, you hear of a US District
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: court judge blocking it, blocking it, blocking it. This was intentional.
• 51:43
  Speaker 2: December twenty sixth, Ah, thank you, December twenty sixth, twenty
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: twenty four. This was intentional, So thanks to Is he
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: the best darned board guy in the world. This was
• 51:53
  Speaker 2: Schumer on the floor of the Senate.
• 51:55
  Speaker 9: Now on Iran and the NDAA when all the Trump
• 51:59
  Speaker 9: administration and can say about his disastrous wife.
• 52:02
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I don't know why it makes me leave,
• 52:04
  Speaker 2: all right? So that was Chuck Schumer. I'm on the flora.
• 52:07
  Speaker 2: Thank you. Is he on the floor of the Senate
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: farting for those who didn't hear, Yes, I'm three years old.
• 52:12
  Speaker 2: Now let's listen again, listen for the listen.
• 52:15
  Speaker 10: Now on Iron and the NDAA.
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: But I'm sorry, Yes, I'm sorry. My mother right now
• 52:23
  Speaker 2: is embarrassed, I know, but that says a lot about
• 52:26
  Speaker 2: the man.
• 52:26
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: Will I will not forget when I was working for ABC.
• 52:32
  Speaker 2: Uh this is several years ago. I don't work for
• 52:34
  Speaker 2: ABC anymore, but I was working for ABC Television and
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: they had me and a whole bunch of anchors and
• 52:40
  Speaker 2: reporters doing the Pride I think the anniversary of Pride.
• 52:44
  Speaker 2: Chuck Schumer comes over to me, and he felt it
• 52:47
  Speaker 2: incumbent upon himself to announce to me something that has
• 52:50
  Speaker 2: later been published. So I'm not speaking out of school,
• 52:52
  Speaker 2: but he announces, you know, my daughter is a lesbian
• 52:55
  Speaker 2: and we love hud just like anybody else. It was
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: so like it he an unnecessary and like, okay, so
• 53:03
  Speaker 2: Willie for you should I that's great, congratulations, Senator Shumer.
• 53:07
  Speaker 2: There's just something so phony and icky about the man.
• 53:11
  Speaker 2: So the fact that like this dirty old suit that
• 53:13
  Speaker 2: probably stinks, like when he takes it off, it probably
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: stands upright against the wall for him to stand there
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: on a mic and fart. Okay, I'm sorry. I won't
• 53:22
  Speaker 2: say the word far it anymore.
• 53:24
  Speaker 3: That's it.
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: I've said my share of the word for the rest
• 53:26
  Speaker 2: of the year. But Nonetheless, when he talked to the
• 53:31
  Speaker 2: Senate about the fact that there would be an insurance
• 53:35
  Speaker 2: that the Liberals would stay in control through these activist
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: Democrat judges, and nobody said a word about it that
• 53:42
  Speaker 2: was okay. Well, look, the bottom line is the President
• 53:46
  Speaker 2: of the United States, who right now thankfully happens to
• 53:49
  Speaker 2: be Donald J. Trump, has a right to appoint whomever
• 53:52
  Speaker 2: he wants into the position of US Attorney, and he
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: has done so. In the case of washing of the
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: Washington State US Attorney, he has at least removed the
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: liberal person and will appoint a conservative likely or as
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: close to one as possible in the days ahead seven ten,
• 54:10
  Speaker 2: wore the Voice of New York. We will take your
• 54:12
  Speaker 2: calls at eight hundred three two one zero seven ten,
• 54:16
  Speaker 2: eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten. Partly
• 54:20
  Speaker 2: sunny today, lots of smoke though in the air. We
• 54:22
  Speaker 2: still have a smoke advisory, poor air quality advisory and
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: effect making it hard to breathe. So just beware of
• 54:28
  Speaker 2: that if you have breathing issues. Highs today, mid eighties.
• 54:31
  Speaker 2: A little later, the left thought the Supreme Court had
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: the final say regarding birthright citizenship, forcing assault to sit
• 54:38
  Speaker 2: down and shut up like suckers, while illegals sneak in
• 54:43
  Speaker 2: just to give birth to a baby so the child
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: could be a US citizen. But the court left a
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: little wiggle room regarding definitions, and one US senator has
• 54:53
  Speaker 2: sponsored a bill that might just codify President Trump's executive
• 54:56
  Speaker 2: order from his first day in office. We'll talk about that.
• 54:59
  Speaker 2: Your calls are next, so we'll take him eight hundred
• 55:01
  Speaker 2: and three to two one zero, seven ten eleven, twenty two.
• 55:04
  Speaker 2: Right now, Ken Rosotto on seven ten w R for
• 55:07
  Speaker 2: the Great Mark Simone.
• 55:09

  Speaker 2: Iro was a more sent to our busy phones. Roger
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: in Boston. You are on the Mark Simone Show. Good
• 55:21
  Speaker 2: morning Roger.
• 55:23
  Speaker 4: Hi, Hi, Ken, you are unbelievable. I'm glad you fill
• 55:28
  Speaker 4: it in.
• 55:28
  Speaker 16: For the mall.
• 55:29
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna let you know. I'm bumping Beantown. But I'm
• 55:33
  Speaker 4: an old Bronx boy. We used to go.
• 55:35
  Speaker 9: We used to go up to New Rockachell because we
• 55:38
  Speaker 9: didn't have a mall in the Bronx.
• 55:40
  Speaker 4: When I was a kid, we went to the New
• 55:42
  Speaker 4: RockA sheell mall. We went up there. It was great
• 55:44
  Speaker 4: up there. I know you're from New Rochelle yesday.
• 55:48
  Speaker 9: You probably before we get to the President and the smoke.
• 55:51
  Speaker 9: Your probably family is originally from the Bronx.
• 55:53
  Speaker 2: No, they believe it or not. We're the only people
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: in New Rochelle not originally from the Bronx, and all
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: of our friends were. But yeah, in fact, my other
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: half's family lived in the Bronx and then New Rochelle.
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: But my no, my family actually came from Trenton and
• 56:09
  Speaker 2: then they went to Pelham and New Rochelle. That's how
• 56:11
  Speaker 2: they made it. But yeah, we loved the New Rochelle.
• 56:14
  Speaker 2: And by the way, it wasn't New rock Shell or
• 56:16
  Speaker 2: New Rock City back then. It was the New Roschelle Mall.
• 56:19
  Speaker 2: They knocked it down and then they built what is
• 56:22
  Speaker 2: now the New rock Shell or the Rock whatever they
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: call it. I don't live there anymore, so I don't
• 56:28
  Speaker 2: I don't even recall, but yeah, it's a great town.
• 56:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 56:31
  Speaker 2: Good, are you still there? Oh we think we put
• 56:35
  Speaker 2: you on there. You go ahead, Roger.
• 56:37
  Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm still yeah. Yeah, it's funny you should say that.
• 56:40
  Speaker 9: When I was a little kid and my mother was
• 56:42
  Speaker 9: driving us all the kids.
• 56:43
  Speaker 4: Up to the ball.
• 56:44
  Speaker 9: I used to say when I saw the sign, I
• 56:46
  Speaker 9: used to call it new Rocky Shall That's how I
• 56:48
  Speaker 9: pronounced it before.
• 56:49
  Speaker 4: Like you said, it was obviously newishall and that's.
• 56:52
  Speaker 9: Rare for you have to be from the Bronx and
• 56:55
  Speaker 9: people that you also know Yonkers were Bronx people too.
• 56:58
  Speaker 9: It was a big thing to move to you, Rachelle
• 57:00
  Speaker 9: yank Is when I was a little kid. But anyway,
• 57:03
  Speaker 9: I'd just like to say, with the smoke, we having
• 57:05
  Speaker 9: it up and be down to. I called so many
• 57:08
  Speaker 9: radio shows three years ago. It's happened three years ago.
• 57:11
  Speaker 9: They got to build bigger fire breaks in Canada to
• 57:15
  Speaker 9: prevent this thing from spreading. If you have giant firebreaks,
• 57:19
  Speaker 9: plus other things you could do too.
• 57:21
  Speaker 5: You could prevent this.
• 57:22
  Speaker 9: This is sometimes now I'm thinking they don't even care.
• 57:26
  Speaker 2: No, they don't because it costs money. If Roger, it
• 57:28
  Speaker 2: costs money, and they don't want to do it. They
• 57:30
  Speaker 2: don't want to do it. They just like to sit
• 57:32
  Speaker 2: back and blame evil the United States because it's our
• 57:36
  Speaker 2: fault with global warming, it's always our fault, instead of
• 57:39
  Speaker 2: spending the money and taking care of it. So listen,
• 57:41
  Speaker 2: prior to twenty twenty three, they used to do fire breaks,
• 57:43
  Speaker 2: they would clean up their forests, they would do controlled burns.
• 57:46
  Speaker 2: And do you recall in twenty twenty one, twenty twenty
• 57:48
  Speaker 2: two having these wildfires from Canada. No didn't happen, right
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: of course, of.
• 57:54
  Speaker 4: Course, not because they were doing it.
• 57:56
  Speaker 9: I did sometimes. And also it's possible we don't know
• 58:00
  Speaker 9: people could be starting these fires.
• 58:02
  Speaker 5: And they can be terrorists.
• 58:04
  Speaker 9: They're never gonna find them. Just like looking down in
• 58:06
  Speaker 9: Florida where you walk, they got pythons in in the
• 58:09
  Speaker 9: thing in the Everglades. I would be surprised that the
• 58:12
  Speaker 9: Russians and Chinese they're doing after destroy our echo egoism
• 58:16
  Speaker 9: and they dropped like a hundred babies and there small ones.
• 58:19
  Speaker 4: But getting to the president, that's it.
• 58:23
  Speaker 9: I've just touch people. Can everybody enjoy yourself?
• 58:26
  Speaker 4: It is over.
• 58:28
  Speaker 9: The United States has been invaded by one hundred million,
• 58:31
  Speaker 9: a third world is and we now have a third
• 58:33
  Speaker 9: world country. I hear these people saying, oh, what happened,
• 58:37
  Speaker 9: what happened? The problem is you didn't listen to Patrick Buchanan.
• 58:42
  Speaker 4: That's what happened.
• 58:43
  Speaker 2: Well, listen, we love people coming into the United States legally.
• 58:47
  Speaker 2: We just don't appreciate sneaking in the back door and
• 58:50
  Speaker 2: doing it the way it was done. Thank you so much, Roger.
• 58:53
  Speaker 2: We appreciate the phone call. Let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn.
• 58:55
  Speaker 2: Good morning, Vincent, good morning.
• 58:58
  Speaker 17: Good morning, Rich. I heard one of Mondami's cronies that
• 59:02
  Speaker 17: he installed in one of the city agencies. This is
• 59:06
  Speaker 17: the latest boneheaded idea. What they want to do now
• 59:10
  Speaker 17: is they want to make it illegal for a landlord
• 59:14
  Speaker 17: and real it is to ask for income verification. And
• 59:20
  Speaker 17: if you want to do a background check on somebody
• 59:23
  Speaker 17: who wants to rent your apartment, you call up whatever
• 59:28
  Speaker 17: the landlord or the real estate agency has to pay
• 59:31
  Speaker 17: for it solely, you can't then put that course onto
• 59:35
  Speaker 17: the prospective tenant. What this is going to do, rich
• 59:39
  Speaker 17: And this is the again, and this is the intent.
• 59:43
  Speaker 17: If you get somebody in there that says, yeah, I
• 59:46
  Speaker 17: make X, Y and Z and I could easily afford
• 59:49
  Speaker 17: that apartment. They might have the money for the first month, friend,
• 59:53
  Speaker 17: and for the down payment. Then they'll stiff the landlord
• 59:58
  Speaker 17: or whomever on the ramp. And the way these courts
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 17: are rigged, the landlord tenant courts in New York City.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 17: Now as it.
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 16: Is, it'll take you two years to get your case
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 16: finally heard, and in all likelihood that like happened to
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 16: my father, the tenant will flip the bird to you
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 16: and the judgment right, and you still won't get any money.
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 2: And you still got to keep paying the mortgage on
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 2: that building. The bankers are going to say, oh, you're
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 2: not getting the rent, don't worry about it. You got
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 2: to pay the.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 16: Vantage ken Recently, there was an article in the Post
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 16: where a landlord had one of these dead beats in
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 16: his apartment and forty years he spent his daughter's college
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 16: fund of two hundred and fifty thousand dollars and the
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 16: tenant is still freeloaded in his apartment. This is up
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 16: from Box Loope. This is what they intend to do.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 2: I'm with you, how then telling me to cut you off?
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 2: You know it's news time, But you're one hundred percent right.
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 2: But the way they love to set it up to
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: set up because all ideally they want the city to
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 2: take over those properties and have this one big socialist
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 2: utopia with the city running everything. Vincent and Brooklyn love
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 2: you brother, always Love Avignon seven ten w We have
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 2: some breaking news I want to tell you about right now.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 2: Word of a seven point three earthquake seven point three
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 2: magnitude earthquake that just struck southern Mexico in the last
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: few minutes. As we get more information, we will of

  Speaker 2: course bring it to you.

  Speaker 1: Bill Mark Simon Show Live from the WR Life Back Studio.
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 5: Guests from Mark Today.
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 2: Here's cap Rosano and so good to be with you
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 2: on a Friday. We go straight to our phones. We
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 2: have a great topic to talk about here. Indiana Republican
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 2: Senator Jim Banks introduced a bill to codify President Trump's
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 2: executive order that reshape the definition of birthright citizenship. The
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 2: bill that Banks introduced on Monday is called the Citizenship
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 2: Act of twenty twenty six. It requires any person who
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 2: comes to the US with out authorization or for the
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 2: purpose of engaging in birth tourism to be considered an
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 2: invader and not automatically entitled to citizenship. Justice Kavanaugh argued
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 2: that the issue is statutory, not constitutional, meaning that Congress
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 2: can modify the issue. You don't need a whole constitutional amendment.
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 2: He wrote that Congress could simply amend Federal Statute fourteen
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 2: oh one a to deny the children of illegals or
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 2: birthright tourists automatic citizenship. That is what this bill does.
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 2: And to talk about it is the secretary of the
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 2: New York State Conservative Party, Howard Limb. Good morning, Howard, Hi,
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 2: Good morning, Ken. That's great to have you on. I
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 2: know so many people were seething mad when the Supreme
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 2: Court issued its ruling, and Americans are fundamentally fair people.
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 2: When they see outsiders coming here gaming the system, ostensibly
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 2: stealing what is precious to us, which is our citizenship,
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 2: and pocketing government giveaways in the process, it just pisses
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 2: people off.
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 8: Yeah, that's right.
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 12: You know.
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 8: We hoped that this would look at the state of
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 8: immigration and the birthright citizenship process and realize that it
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 8: was totally out of control. We hope that the acts
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 8: and the one you mentioned is not the only one
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 8: that are going through Congress will open the door to
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 8: allow the Supreme Court on and what will probably be
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 8: a new case that will come up when this law
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 8: is signed, to relook at the facts and reverse the
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 8: Barber decision which came down a couple of weeks ago.
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 8: And we believe that Justice Kavanaugh and Justice Barrett will
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 8: with the new legislation see fit to correct this problem.
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 2: I mean here you had basically Justice Kavanaugh giving a
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 2: sort of hint and a roadmap right on how this
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 2: could be fixed. That doesn't mean the other justice is
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 2: who voted their way, are going to agree with this. Correct.
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 8: Yeah, that's right, Barbara. Was a six to three decision,
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 8: So we need to turn around two of the justices
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 8: that said birthright citizenship is the way it's being processed
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 8: right now. We think that obviously Justice Kavanaugh, since he
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 8: included it in his concurrence. We'll see that the new
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 8: law opens that door. And we are very very hopeful
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 8: that Judge Barrett, if given the opportunity to hear the
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 8: Voice of Congress, which she pointed out in her decision
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 8: had not said anything about this previously, will also change
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 8: her mind.
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 2: Seven are the Voice of New York. This is the
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 2: Mark Simon Show, Ken Rosatto, Inframark and on Friday, and
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 2: we're speaking to the Secretary of the New York State
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 2: Servative Party, Howard Limb. We're talking about birthright citizenship and
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 2: a new bill that was just introduced in the Senate
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 2: that might amend things and so basically make everything that
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: was just decided in the Supreme Court. Flip around again,
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 2: we'll see what happens with it. So what is different
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 2: here is that this first defines any person who enters
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 2: the US without authorization or for the purpose of engaging
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 2: in birth tourism to be considered an invader. And it
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 2: says that invaders are not entitled to have citizenship granted
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 2: to any children whom they give birth to while here.
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 2: And because the fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution does not
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 2: reference invaders, this would preemptively disqualify them. Right, if you're
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 2: called an invader, the Constitution says nothing about an invader
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 2: getting that citizenship. So I guess this is the angle
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 2: it would work with.
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 8: Yeah, well, well, I think lawyers will focus on the
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 8: phrase in the fourteenth Amendment, which says subject to the
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 8: jurisdiction ofv We argue that once Congress has passed these
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 8: new laws that are currently under consideration, it will define
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 8: subject to the jurisdiction of as not applying to illegals.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 8: You know, the Fourteenth Amendment only became a part of
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 8: the Constitution three years after the Civil War. It was
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 8: passed entirely because of the dread Scott decision, which took
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 8: place before the Civil War, and many would our historians
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 8: would argue that it was a primary cause of the
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 8: Civil War. Dread Scott said that blacks free, whether they
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 8: were slaves or freed slaves, could not become citizens. Shortly
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 8: three years after the Civil War, the Fourteenth Amendment in
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 8: eighteen sixty eight said that blacks were all assumed to
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 8: be US citizens and applied that law in the future
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 8: to say those born would become US citizens. People have
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 8: to understand that there was no real federal control or
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 8: regulation of immigration until eighteen ninety one. Prior to that time,
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 8: you could show up off a ship in New York
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 8: and San Francisco, and as long as a state official,
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 8: not a federal official, a state official in New York
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 8: California allowed you to step off the ship and onto
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 8: the streets of New York or San Francisco. You were
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 8: in this country legally. And there were racial policies that
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 8: prevented some people from getting off those ships. But the
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 8: federal government didn't really take control of the immigration process
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 8: until eighteen ninety one, and lo and behold. For instance,
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 8: Ellis Island was opened in eighteen ninety two. Until that time,
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 8: it was office buildings in the Battery Park part of
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 8: Manhattan that processed immigration, mostly in a totally lazy, fair process.
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 6: Hey, Howard, you can you imagine and you stepped off
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 6: the ship, you were allowed to walk around.
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 2: Can you imagine today Mam Donnie's New York City? If
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 2: that were still the case, if you were from any
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 2: country but Europe, European country, you'd be allowed in. That
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 2: would be basically mum Donnie's New York City. It would be interesting.
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 8: Yeah, that's the state that we're in.
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 2: Today, right, Yeah, that is certainly the case. And of
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 2: course there would be a whole new map drawn up
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 2: and it would not include certain parts of the dry state.
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 2: How do you feel? And by the way, everybody, we're
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 2: speaking to the secretary of the New York State Conservative Party,
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 2: Howard Limbs is cameros Otto in for Mark today. Howard,
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 2: how do you think a this will get through the
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 2: two houses the House and the Senate? Do you think
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 2: it has a chance of passing? And b do you
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 2: think if it does pass, will it be challenged once
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 2: again before the Supreme Court?
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 8: Well, this is one of those things that I believe
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 8: we may even see some Democrats crossover, particularly those who
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 8: might be up with re election soon, and they will
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 8: support the change in the immigration law. I would hope
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 8: almost every Republican will. And then, of course we'll be
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 8: in that labyrinth of immediate lawsuits either from people who
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 8: have or do not have standing to challenge it. And unfortunately,
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 8: the way the process works, we might not actually see
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 8: the Supreme Court evaluate that new legislation for a year
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 8: and a half to two.
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 2: All right, we'll see what happens. He is the Secretary
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 2: of the New York State Conservative Party, Howard Limb. We
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 2: appreciate you coming on this morning.
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 8: Thank you very much.
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 2: Ken, you bet have a good day, a good weekend.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 2: Ken Rosotto, Win from Mark on your Friday. When we
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 2: come back, we will take more of your calls. The
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 2: number is one eight hundred three two one zero seven
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 2: ten one eight hundred three to two one zero seven
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 2: ten for wo R.
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 1: This is the Mark Simone Show on seven ten WR
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 1: Ken from Mark Today.
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 5: Here's Ken Rosatto.
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 2: We got a few minutes left. Let's go straight to
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 2: our busy phones. Let's say good morning to Will. Good
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 2: morning Will. Hello, Will you got yeah? Ignore the background, dude,
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 2: The radio is on is on delay, So just lower
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 2: the radio and you can talk to us.
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 5: Hi.
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 2: Hell are you goodwill?
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 6: Oh?
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 13: I'd just like to comment on what's going on with
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 13: this situation in Canada. Is this is going on now
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 13: three years in a row, the same.
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 5: Time of the year.
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 13: They're doing this on purpose, and yet they blame America.
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 13: We have the lowest, the best air quality. Why don't
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 13: they point the singer that China in India but they
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 13: know what they're doing up there. Yeah, that's is set
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 13: on purpose.
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't know if it's you know, the only
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 2: reason why. I don't know that it's on a purpose.
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 2: If you look, it's like two thirds of the countries
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 2: on fire, So I don't know if they would want
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 2: that much to burn. You know, maybe you put a
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 2: little bit right outside Detroit. You're to send a little message.
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 2: But you know, they have two thirds of your country
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 2: on fire. That's not a good thing. It's a big
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 2: chunk of the country. But it is due to their
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 2: own cheapness and mismanagement. Now, I know you can't afford
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 2: to thin every forest out hundreds and hundreds of thousands
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 2: of acres, if not millions of acres, I get it.
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 2: But if they just practice the simple maintenance of the
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 2: forest that they used to practice. Let the loggers come
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 2: in and take their stuff and clear out paths and whatnot.
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 2: That's how you manage things. And we still do that,
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 2: so you know, that's why you don't have wildfires except
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 2: for California, the liberal states where they refuse to do
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 2: forest management. The other states that manage their forest don't
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 2: have that problem. Well, we appreciate you, and thank you
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 2: for calling. We go to Boba, New Jersey. Bob maybe
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 2: we lost Bob. All right, let's go to Jane on
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 2: Long Island.
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 18: Jean, good morning, Yeah, good morning, thanks for taking my call. Sure, Yeah,
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 18: just a couple of things. I was just wondering if
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 18: anybody was aware of the Communist Control Act of nineteen
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 18: fifty four to stop what's going on right now in
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 18: the government. They were supposed to be ousted or sent
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 18: to another country to back to that country.
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, go ahead.
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 18: Don't know if they've ever done anything about that. But
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 18: Jag the Hoover wrote a book called Masters of Deceit,
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 18: and that's a great book and it tells about what's
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 18: going on right now.
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 2: So if I could jump in, only because we're short
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 2: on time just to get to Congress actually repealed a
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 2: number of the provisions of the Communists Control Act, because
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 2: in America you get to be a part of whatever
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 2: party you want, including communists. Sadly, but back in ninety
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 2: three there was legislation that amitted that just eliminated, the
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 2: eviscerated much of the Communist Control Act, which is part
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 2: of the problem. And so therefore it is pretty much
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 2: legal to be a communist, which is antithetical to all
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 2: things American. But you're right, the Communist Control Act was started,
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 2: in fact, with a lot of Democrat support. It was
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 2: mostly Democrat support in order to prevent exactly what's happening
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 2: now from happening. But we appreciate your call. Thank you
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 2: so much for calling on that one. Jeane, and we
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 2: go to Robert. Good morning.
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 18: Was I got disconnected?
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 9: I'm sorry?
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 4: How are you?
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 2: No problem? Robert, good morning? We got about a minute left.
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 4: Ken, I'm sorry to say this, but this is a
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 4: family show. Chuck Schumer, did it not fart? He expelled?
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 2: Oh listen, listen, listen, there it is. We we had
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 2: to share some of the flatulence. You're right, Robert, it
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 2: was flatulence. That is translation for fart anyway. We thank
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 2: you so much for tuning in. I'm sorry, I'm a
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 2: two year old. I promise I'll never do that again.
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 2: Mark will be back in this seat Monday. Thank goodness,
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 2: because I love Mark two just like you do. And
• 1:14:04
