Hour 1: Comcast spinoff. · The Mark Simone Show

0:00
Speaker 1: Fly from Midtown Manhattan. Here comes the Mark Simone Show
0:05
Speaker 1: on seven ten WR.
0:09
Speaker 2: Well, it's supposed to be a great Fourth of July weekend,
0:13
Speaker 2: people taking time off, it's supposed to be amazing. Now
0:16
Speaker 2: it's gonna be one hundred degrees and I'm looking at
0:19
Speaker 2: the real feel one hundred and ten. So this is awful.
0:23
Speaker 2: But if you're thinking a moving to Florida, try Thursday,
0:28
Speaker 2: Friday Saturday. See if you like that weather. If you
0:30
Speaker 2: don't like Thursday, Friday and Saturday's weather, you don't want
0:34
Speaker 2: to move to Florida because it's like that for about
0:36
Speaker 2: four months a year. So it's gonna be brutal. You know,
0:39
Speaker 2: they're having the Big America two point fifty celebration in Washington, DC.
0:44
Speaker 2: This is a massive event with fireworks, with parties, with
0:47
Speaker 2: all sorts of stuff, many many, many thousands of people
0:51
Speaker 2: expected to show. But I don't know how this is
0:53
Speaker 2: going to affect that, because as bad as it'll be here,
0:56
Speaker 2: it'll be worse in DC. It's expected to get to
0:59
Speaker 2: a hundred here, it'll be more like one hundred and
1:01
Speaker 2: five in DC. That's south. It's going to be a
1:06
Speaker 2: lot warmer there. So I don't know who's going to
1:08
Speaker 2: stand outside in all of that heat. So it's going
1:11
Speaker 2: to be a rough weekend. And I don't know how
1:15
Speaker 2: we're going to get through this, but you know, you
1:17
Speaker 2: can tell you all the same things. Stay hydrated, drink
1:19
Speaker 2: tons of water. If you're going to be outside, stay
1:22
Speaker 2: in air conditioning. So this is going to kill a
1:25
Speaker 2: lot of plans for the Fourth of July, many of
1:27
Speaker 2: them outdoors. And you're not going to be outside on Friday. Thursday.
1:31
Speaker 2: I think it's the worst day. But Friday's pretty bad too.
1:34
Speaker 2: It cools off, drops to like the mid nineties maybe
1:37
Speaker 2: on Saturday. So lots to get to. We'll get to Iran,
1:42
Speaker 2: we'll bring you all the latest. We'll get to President Trump.
1:46
Speaker 2: We'll get to the crazy Democrats and all the communists
1:49
Speaker 2: getting elected. Comcast is getting rid of NBC. We'll get
1:54
Speaker 2: to the real reason all those crazy wacko socialists got elected.
1:58
Speaker 2: This past week. Our buddy mel Brooks tour turns one
2:02
Speaker 2: hundred today, oh, yesterday, actually a hundred. We think about that,
2:08
Speaker 2: you know, now, the candles cost more than the cake
2:10
Speaker 2: does a one hundred. Take a look at my Instagram.
2:13
Speaker 2: It's a good picture of him and me on Instagram.
2:18
Speaker 2: Where do we even start. Let's start with Mom Donnie.
2:22
Speaker 2: What the hell was he doing on these Sunday shows? This,
2:26
Speaker 2: Mom Donnie. I got to admit, he's a charming guy
2:31
Speaker 2: with a great smile and a wonderful personality, and I
2:34
Speaker 2: mean a terrible, evil communist, anti Semite everything you can
2:38
Speaker 2: think of. But the fact that they had him on
2:41
Speaker 2: the ABC Sunday Show lead guest gave him a long
2:46
Speaker 2: time on that Sunday show. They're really promoting him, trying
2:49
Speaker 2: to make him the new face of the crazy wing
2:51
Speaker 2: of the Democratic Party. This has got to upset AOC.
2:56
Speaker 2: She might not be happy about that. Although remember you
3:00
Speaker 2: know she's talking about running for president. Remember that Mam
3:02
Speaker 2: Donnie was not born in this country, so he cannot
3:05
Speaker 2: be president. He can never run for president. But Jonathan Carl,
3:11
Speaker 2: the left wing biased fake news guy, fawning all over
3:16
Speaker 2: Mom Donnie, never asking a tough question, and no matter
3:20
Speaker 2: what Mam Donnie said, Jonathan Carl just nodding like a bobblehead,
3:24
Speaker 2: never questioning it. Listen to this.
3:25
Speaker 3: Republicans are going to make you the poster child for
3:29
Speaker 3: the Democratic Party. Left them. We don't have to ask
3:33
Speaker 3: ourselves what life looks like if a socialist wins. I
3:35
Speaker 3: won last November, and over the course of these last
3:38
Speaker 3: six months, what we've delivered for working people are the
3:41
Speaker 3: very things we were told were impossible.
3:44
Speaker 2: Yeah, somebody cut this short. He goes on and on,
3:46
Speaker 2: and he goes through you affordability daycare for two year olds,
3:50
Speaker 2: and he said, we've brought crime to its lowest level ever.
3:55
Speaker 2: And Jonathan Carl nods and nods nods, doesn't say to him,
3:59
Speaker 2: wait a minut we looked into those numbers. Yeah, it's
4:01
Speaker 2: down overall, but murder is up dramatically. Robberies are up
4:06
Speaker 2: through the roof. What about that? But it's Jonathan Carl
4:10
Speaker 2: fake news. Even the question they're going to try to
4:13
Speaker 2: make you the face of you know, of course, the
4:16
Speaker 2: first socialist mayor ever of New York City. I mean
4:20
Speaker 2: nobody is you know, the only good thing for him.
4:22
Speaker 2: You could say nobody's been more anti semitic. Now you
4:25
Speaker 2: can't say that anymore. You got Brad Lander, and you
4:27
Speaker 2: got these other wackos that got elected, I mean real
4:31
Speaker 2: left wing kooks. Now people, you know, serious political operatives
4:36
Speaker 2: studying this whole phenomenon, looking crunching numbers and focus groups.
4:42
Speaker 2: You know the reason those socialists got elected this past week.
4:46
Speaker 2: The crazy ones had nothing to do with affordability. They'll
4:49
Speaker 2: tell you that was the issue, affordability and all that.
4:53
Speaker 2: They got elected for two reasons. One the anti Semitism,
4:57
Speaker 2: This awful hatred of Israel has taken over the Democratic voters,
5:04
Speaker 2: especially the younger ones. It's a vicious, sick hatred of Israel.
5:08
Speaker 2: They'll claim it's just anti Israel, which is a code
5:11
Speaker 2: word for anti Semitic. The other reason is Trump. They're
5:16
Speaker 2: sick of these old politicians, the last generation, the real
5:21
Speaker 2: old hacks. They think they have not been effective standing
5:24
Speaker 2: up to Trump. Now it's one reason for this phenomenon.
5:27
Speaker 2: These younger voters think, well, we've got to vote in
5:30
Speaker 2: you know, a whole different breed, younger, crazier. The older
5:35
Speaker 2: people couldn't stand up to Trump, maybe these people will
5:38
Speaker 2: do it. You know, they look at a guy like
5:40
Speaker 2: Chuck Schumer and they're not wrong as just a totally ineffective,
5:44
Speaker 2: useless character. And Schumer is no matter what your side
5:48
Speaker 2: you're on, he's just a useless old fossil, a slow dinosaur,
5:53
Speaker 2: a useless pandering cheap politician. So that's why they're going
5:58
Speaker 2: with these crazies. They think maybe they can stand up
6:01
Speaker 2: to Trump, maybe they can stop Trump. Yesterday was the
6:05
Speaker 2: Pride Parade, and I think it was the end of
6:09
Speaker 2: Chuck Schumer's political career. I have never seen anybody look
6:14
Speaker 2: more pathetic than Chuck Schumer in the Pride parade. First
6:18
Speaker 2: of all, he got booed like crazy. Listen to this,
6:28
Speaker 2: and he is completely tone deaf. He's lost all touch
6:33
Speaker 2: with the voters. He was the cheapest, hustling, pandering, just
6:39
Speaker 2: cheap politician in this Pride parade. He's marching down the street,
6:43
Speaker 2: you know, everybody's just marching and waving. He brings with
6:46
Speaker 2: him a bullhorn thing a microphone so that he can
6:50
Speaker 2: talk to the crowd. It was embarrassing and I don't
6:54
Speaker 2: think he knows it's twenty twenty six he brought this.
6:58
Speaker 2: It's like a bullhorn where an aid is walking next
7:01
Speaker 2: to him holding the big the bullhorn thing, and Schumer
7:05
Speaker 2: has the microphone on a long you know, the coiled
7:09
Speaker 2: phone cord kind of thing, so he's talking into it
7:13
Speaker 2: while the aid is holding the big part. And the
7:16
Speaker 2: microphone he's using is from like nineteen fifty eight. It's
7:20
Speaker 2: the microphone Broderick Crawford used on highway patrol. I mean,
7:24
Speaker 2: is the It just looks so antiquish, and Schumer is
7:31
Speaker 2: just annoying the crowd. He keeps repeating over and over
7:34
Speaker 2: again the whole parade. He goes, I was the first
7:36
Speaker 2: senator ever to march in this parade the nineteen nineties.
7:41
Speaker 2: I was the first senator ever to march in this bridge.
7:43
Speaker 2: Is bragging stupidly about nothing, and then he just keeps
7:48
Speaker 2: repeating over and over again, my daughter is married to
7:50
Speaker 2: a woman. That's right, my daughter is married to a woman.
7:54
Speaker 2: Keeps repeating this over and again. It's the cheapest, leaziest
7:57
Speaker 2: pandering and the reaction he got. So it's these old, cheap,
8:09
Speaker 2: old hustler politicians. That's one reason these younger voters have
8:14
Speaker 2: completely turned on him, voting in communists, socialists, anti semites,
8:19
Speaker 2: left wing kooks, and it's just going to continue. So mom,
8:23
Speaker 2: Donnie gets so much time on this Sunday show.
8:26
Speaker 3: We need to have a platform and a vision that
8:28
Speaker 3: doesn't sound as if it was cooked up by consultants,
8:31
Speaker 3: but instead one that you would say in response to
8:34
Speaker 3: someone who's asking why can't I afford my rent? Why
8:36
Speaker 3: can't I afford my groceries? Why can't I afford my childcare?
8:39
Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's the thing. He's got a nice look
8:42
Speaker 2: on television, nice looking guy. He's got a big smile,
8:45
Speaker 2: and he talks fast. You know, if you can talk
8:47
Speaker 2: fast like this, and you can talk faster than most people,
8:49
Speaker 2: you sound like it must be much smarter. Otherwise, how
8:51
Speaker 2: could you talk that fast? So, but these communists, it's
8:55
Speaker 2: perfect for Trump. He was all over this all weekend with.
9:00
Speaker 4: The communists elected in New York City recently. They're communists,
9:03
Speaker 4: are not social democrats. They want to completely destroy the
9:07
Speaker 4: traditional American way of life.
9:09
Speaker 2: Yeah, they say all the right things. Everything they say.
9:11
Speaker 2: If you actually do it, it's a total disaster. Ninety
9:14
Speaker 2: eight percent of what they say they'll never do.
9:16
Speaker 4: They're turning communists themselves, becoming a communist party. These are
9:20
Speaker 4: not social democrats. These are hardcore godless communists. They're godless communists.
9:26
Speaker 4: All communists are godless. They don't believe in God. This
9:30
Speaker 4: is the most serious threat to our country since its existence,
9:34
Speaker 4: in my opinion.
9:36
Speaker 2: Now there's some Democrats, the old guard in Congress saying
9:42
Speaker 2: maybe we should not let them caluc us with us.
9:44
Speaker 2: Maybe we should make them be a separate party, you know,
9:47
Speaker 2: like Bernie Sanders officially an independent, not a Democrat. Maybe
9:51
Speaker 2: they should do that, but it's too late. There really
9:54
Speaker 2: is no more Democratic party. You got taken over. You
9:57
Speaker 2: lost your party to these people.
9:58
Speaker 4: They make promises that they know they can't keep, and
10:02
Speaker 4: the Democrats aren't fighting back. That's why they're dumb. They're
10:05
Speaker 4: not fighting back.
10:06
Speaker 5: They're afraid.
10:07
Speaker 2: Yeah, notice he calls them the Democrats, the Democrats. You've
10:10
Speaker 2: lost your party. It's pretty much gone. These guys took
10:13
Speaker 2: it over. You're pretty much finished. Nothing is this more
10:20
Speaker 2: mom donning.
10:20
Speaker 5: Republicans are going to make you the post.
10:22
Speaker 2: That's the same cut. Yeah, they're going to make you
10:24
Speaker 2: the postage. Yeah, because you're a crazy lunatic socialist, left
10:29
Speaker 2: wing sort of a sort of a coop. So I ran.
10:33
Speaker 2: The latest on Iran is they did strike a ship.
10:39
Speaker 2: They attacked a ship in the straight of horn Mouse,
10:43
Speaker 2: a civilian ship. We quickly responded and fired a lot.
10:51
Speaker 2: They sent their four drones. We knocked down three of them.
10:55
Speaker 2: It was pretty bad. So that caused another round of bombing.
10:58
Speaker 2: But this was extreme bombing of Iran. Let me see,
11:02
Speaker 2: I think this is it.
11:03
Speaker 4: That first year, boy, you're the most Popular's happening.
11:05
Speaker 2: No, let me see, I'll find the Iran cuts. But
11:09
Speaker 2: it was pretty bad. So they hit Iran very, very hard. Now,
11:12
Speaker 2: it turns out during that four or five weeks of
11:16
Speaker 2: ceasefire where we were restocking and resupplying, apparently Iran was
11:20
Speaker 2: as well. They're getting missiles from somewhere. It's also believed
11:24
Speaker 2: that before all of this they buried missiles deep underground
11:28
Speaker 2: and that they've dug them out, so we had to
11:29
Speaker 2: hit them pretty hard. Now, Iran putting out a statement,
11:35
Speaker 2: Islamic Revolutionary Guard putting out a statement that they have
11:38
Speaker 2: no choice. They have to have a nuclear bomb. It's
11:41
Speaker 2: the only way for them to maintain peace, keep themselves safe.
11:46
Speaker 2: They must have a nuclear weapon. But obviously will never
11:49
Speaker 2: allow that to happen because they're the biggest sponsor of
11:53
Speaker 2: terrorism in the world. They're the biggest supplier to terrorist groups,
11:58
Speaker 2: so obviously we would want them to have any nuclear
12:00
Speaker 2: material to hand over to a terrorist. So that's got
12:04
Speaker 2: to stop. In President Trump Saturday said the peace deal
12:09
Speaker 2: with Iran was fraying. It has falling apart. We may
12:13
Speaker 2: have to go back in there again. They struck a
12:16
Speaker 2: civilian ship, tried to and over the weekend we launched
12:20
Speaker 2: strikes against them the world larger, much larger than the
12:24
Speaker 2: previous retaliatory strikes. They were huge. Trump's saying, there may
12:28
Speaker 2: come a point where we're no longer able to be
12:32
Speaker 2: reasonable and we will have to complete the job militarily.
12:36
Speaker 2: We will have to wipe them out. Quote. If that happens,
12:40
Speaker 2: the Islamic Republic of Iran will no longer exist. So
12:45
Speaker 2: if we have to do that, it'll look better because
12:47
Speaker 2: he tried every diplomacy method, every peaceful method, and if
12:51
Speaker 2: you got to wipe them out, you gotta wipe them out.
12:54
Speaker 2: And that'll be the end of it. Now, remember Iraq
13:00
Speaker 2: went through a lot of the same stuff. With Iraq
13:02
Speaker 2: on off. Can't stop, they won't, you know, we keep playing. Well,
13:05
Speaker 2: everybody forgot about Iraq. It's been, you know, years, been
13:09
Speaker 2: fifteen years since somebody's even mentioned Iraq. But they've been
13:12
Speaker 2: going on there, hobbling along for fifteen years with some
13:15
Speaker 2: kind of a government. But over the weekend, a bunch
13:18
Speaker 2: of Iraqi political officials were arrested on corruption charges, stealing money.
13:26
Speaker 2: That's pretty interesting, you see. That's that's how you know
13:28
Speaker 2: they're straightening themselves out, becoming a democracy. You got the
13:31
Speaker 2: more corruption there. Of course you have that with socialists too,
13:35
Speaker 2: but it's slowly, slowly unraveling there. Hey, the other thing
13:40
Speaker 2: with Mom Donnie. You know these e bikes, these electric scooters,
13:44
Speaker 2: these things flying around the streets, very dangerous. People are
13:48
Speaker 2: getting hurt, getting run over. I mean, they're crazy, these
13:51
Speaker 2: electric scooters, electric bikes, these delivery guys. So the city
13:57
Speaker 2: council in the state that passed some sort of thing about,
14:01
Speaker 2: you know, regulating them, cracking down, giving them tickets, stopping
14:04
Speaker 2: that enforcing. So Mamdanni blocked it. It's you know, it
14:10
Speaker 2: could get passed, but he could just order the police department,
14:12
Speaker 2: don't enforce this, don't bother the e bikes. And that's
14:15
Speaker 2: been the case. Now, why is Mom Donnie protecting those
14:19
Speaker 2: e bikes that are crazy and reckless. Well, it's part
14:23
Speaker 2: of these left wing cooks, these real fanatical left wing cooks.
14:26
Speaker 2: They hate cars, they hate automobiles so much. That's why
14:30
Speaker 2: I got all these plans to reduce sixth Avenue, Park Avenue,
14:34
Speaker 2: you know, to get rid of the cars. But I
14:37
Speaker 2: just don't want to crack down on the e bikes
14:39
Speaker 2: and scooters because they think those are the anti car people.
14:44
Speaker 2: The other reason is many of the people, as you
14:48
Speaker 2: be grabbing and are ticketing and arresting and fining, are
14:52
Speaker 2: illegal immigrants. That's mostly who's doing the delivery work. And
14:56
Speaker 2: if they got criminal charges these illegal immigrants while doing
14:59
Speaker 2: the deliver work, criminal charges would make them candidates for deportation.
15:05
Speaker 2: That's why mom Donny doesn't want to crack down. He
15:07
Speaker 2: doesn't see them get deported. The other reason is who
15:11
Speaker 2: are they delivering for. Most of them are for Amazon
15:13
Speaker 2: and stuff like that, major major supermarket companies. Amazon and
15:19
Speaker 2: Amazon and those things are making massive donations to these politicians,
15:25
Speaker 2: and they don't want too much of a crackdown because
15:28
Speaker 2: it would really hurt their delivery business. So you got
15:34
Speaker 2: all these different forces clashing on this. Hey, we'll take
15:37
Speaker 2: some calls. Next. Eight hundred three to two one zero
15:40
Speaker 2: seven ten is the number. Eight hundred three two one
15:45
Speaker 2: zero seven tens live from.
15:47
Speaker 6: The WR Life Back Studios, Mark Simon.
15:53
Speaker 2: Hey, let's take some calls. Let's go to Ron in Florida. Ron,
15:57
Speaker 2: how you doing now a ye're in Florida. You deal
16:01
Speaker 2: with one hundred degree heat all the time. How do
16:03
Speaker 2: we get through this?
16:04
Speaker 1: Oh it's great, it's only going to be eighty eight
16:07
Speaker 1: this week.
16:08
Speaker 2: Oh okay, cold spell? All right, what do you want
16:11
Speaker 2: to say?
16:13
Speaker 1: Make a comment about these democrats like Hochel. We're trying
16:17
Speaker 1: to align themselves with the socialists and running scared. And
16:21
Speaker 1: Kennedy's sixty one addressed everybody who remembers the line about
16:25
Speaker 1: snatch your country can do it for you. But he
16:28
Speaker 1: also had a line those who foolishly sought power by
16:32
Speaker 1: riding the back of the tiger ended up inside. And
16:36
Speaker 1: I think that discs people to a tea.
16:38
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, that's Hochel. Definitely she good. Michael Goodwin column
16:42
Speaker 2: this weekend about Hockel foolishly thinking she could ever satisfy
16:47
Speaker 2: the Mom Donnie crowd. They'll eat her alive at some point,
16:50
Speaker 2: which is good. Bruce Blakeman should be the next governor
16:53
Speaker 2: of New York. Got to see that happen. Go to

Speaker 2: They always tell you, oh, there's no humidity, you know,
18:05
Speaker 2: what's horrible.
18:06
Speaker 7: No, no, no, I'm not lying to you.
18:08
Speaker 2: There's no humidity in my oven either, but it's.
18:10
Speaker 7: Still for I know you can't stand outside. No, I'd
18:13
Speaker 7: be lying to you if I tell you can't.
18:15
Speaker 2: All right, Mara, Well, good call, Thanks for calling. Let's
18:18
Speaker 2: go to Mike in Florida. Mike, how you doing.
18:22
Speaker 9: Good morning, Mark, And you're right about the heat down
18:26
Speaker 9: here and what you're going to be enduring this weekend.
18:29
Speaker 9: The one thing you won't have to endure is the
18:30
Speaker 9: little power outages I get every couple of days down
18:34
Speaker 9: here because they can't seem to get the lights to
18:37
Speaker 9: stay on.
18:38
Speaker 2: Well, don't chinkit, don't chinxit here. Well, it happened last night.
18:42
Speaker 10: I had to get up early for cataract surgery this morning,
18:44
Speaker 10: and the lights are blinking in the middle of the night. Anyway,
18:48
Speaker 10: I wanted to say that, you know they're gonna you know,
18:50
Speaker 10: it's not the Democrat Republicans who are going to make
18:53
Speaker 10: Mom Donning the face of the party. It's the Democrats
18:57
Speaker 10: because they want him to be the super radical so
18:59
Speaker 10: they can make AOC seemed moderate insane.
19:02
Speaker 9: They did the same thing with.
19:03
Speaker 10: Biden, and then she'll get in and she'll be a
19:07
Speaker 10: communist just.
19:08
Speaker 1: Like the best of them.
19:09
Speaker 2: That could be. That could it's a strategy that's not
19:13
Speaker 2: a bad strategy, I mean for them. But all right,
19:17
Speaker 2: well thanks for that. You know the problem with AOC
19:20
Speaker 2: problem number one, she doesn't know anything. She knows nothing
19:23
Speaker 2: about anything. Remember she went to Davos, the big World
19:25
Speaker 2: Economic Forum, and went to speak there and didn't know
19:28
Speaker 2: a damn thing about anything with economics and know nothing,
19:32
Speaker 2: didn't know anything about foreign policy. You'd think if she
19:35
Speaker 2: was going there she would have boned up on it studying.
19:38
Speaker 2: I mean, it's like a twelve hour plane ride. You
19:40
Speaker 2: cant at least study a little. But nope, doesn't know anything.
19:44
Speaker 2: But and that was Kamala Harris's problem. But but you
19:48
Speaker 2: know a lot of these democrats don't care. They just
19:51
Speaker 2: see a d and they start voting. Let's go to
19:53
Speaker 2: Rich and Myrtle Beach Rich, how you doing, hey?
19:56
Speaker 8: Thanks Mark hot Hot. It was one hundred and four.
19:58
Speaker 8: It felt like one hundred and ford down here, and
20:00
Speaker 8: some of it would be like that almost every day
20:02
Speaker 8: for the rest of the summer.
20:03
Speaker 2: Now, so, so how do you tell us how to
20:05
Speaker 2: get through it?
20:06
Speaker 8: What do you do, well, what you want to sit
20:08
Speaker 8: by the pool and jump in the pool. And the
20:10
Speaker 8: thing if you go to the beach down here, as
20:12
Speaker 8: long as you have a breeze on the beach, it's
20:14
Speaker 8: not too bad. But if the breeze is light or
20:17
Speaker 8: nonexistent by eleven o'clock, you have to get off the
20:19
Speaker 8: beach and come home and sit in there conditioning or
20:22
Speaker 8: jumping it out of the pool. You gotta you know, drink,
20:24
Speaker 8: you know, stay hidrag, just like they always say. But
20:26
Speaker 8: it's just it is what it is. And the funny
20:28
Speaker 8: thing is is when I was living a long Island,
20:31
Speaker 8: the hottest part of the day is like two three
20:32
Speaker 8: o'clock in the afternoon. Down here, the hottest part of
20:35
Speaker 8: the day is five and six o'clock in the after
20:37
Speaker 8: It it's like never ending down here. And the humidity
20:39
Speaker 8: is like light years ahead of what it is even
20:42
Speaker 8: living a long iron living on the ocean like I did.
20:44
Speaker 8: The humidity down here, it took me years to get
20:46
Speaker 8: used to it. In the first couple of years I
20:48
Speaker 8: was here, I couldn't even believe. It was like walking
20:50
Speaker 8: through soup all the time.
20:51
Speaker 2: You know, Well, remember that if you're thinking of moving
20:53
Speaker 2: to North Carolina or Florida. I just remember that. All right,
20:56
Speaker 2: thanks for calling. Let's go to Ernie speaking Long Island.
20:59
Speaker 2: Ernie in Northport, Ernie, how you doing.
21:03
Speaker 8: Good, Good morning man, Chuck Schumer.
21:06
Speaker 5: I mean, this guy amazes me.
21:07
Speaker 8: You know, he's got a problem with the communists in
21:11
Speaker 8: the state.
21:11
Speaker 9: You think he would get out in front of this,
21:13
Speaker 9: But this guy's got no backbone.
21:15
Speaker 8: You think he would defend himself.
21:16
Speaker 9: He's gonna get primary And the other thing.
21:18
Speaker 10: I think what you said about him, he takes his compliments.
21:21
Speaker 5: I mean, this guy is I can't believe.
21:24
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a pathetic, cheap, hustling politician. And he looked
21:28
Speaker 2: so ridiculous in that parade with this old microphone from
21:33
Speaker 2: highway patrol that he's talking into. And that shirt is
21:36
Speaker 2: like you know what Lalo Salamanca wore in the Breaking
21:40
Speaker 2: Bad that summer shirt and just looked ridiculous. Let me
21:43
Speaker 2: find it again. The crowd when they saw Schumer, this
21:47
Speaker 2: was the reaction and this is the pride parade. I
21:58
Speaker 2: would assume the crowd is mostly Democratic, and how what
22:01
Speaker 2: they do when they saw Schumer. He's finished. It's the
22:07
Speaker 2: end of the line for him. Can never run for
22:09
Speaker 2: anything again. If he well, I was gonna say he
22:13
Speaker 2: should resign, But then Hokle gets to a point a replacement,
22:16
Speaker 2: and to pander, she would appoint a left wing socialist.
22:19
Speaker 2: So let him stay there, let him finish out the term. Hey,
22:22
Speaker 2: Michael Goodwin is away, but when we come back, we'll
22:24
Speaker 2: talk to Liz Peak, the brilliant columnist coming up next
22:28
Speaker 2: on seven to ten WR.
22:31
Speaker 9: You're listening to the Mark Simone Show on WR.
22:39
Speaker 2: Well, we're looking for Liz Peg all right, we'll find her.
22:44
Speaker 2: Michael Goodwin's away this week. Let me just look at
22:47
Speaker 2: the weather because today might be the most normal day
22:52
Speaker 2: of the week, but there is no there's no chance
22:56
Speaker 2: of rain. Yeah, it's going to be in the eighties.
22:58
Speaker 2: Now it's gonna get it's going to get rough this week.
23:02
Speaker 2: So tomorrow it'll be eighty nine. That's not so bad. Wednesday,
23:08
Speaker 2: you know what. They're actually bringing it down a little.
23:11
Speaker 2: Wednesday's ninety five, Thursday's ninety nine, Friday the same. They
23:16
Speaker 2: had it over one hundred before, it's down to ninety nine.
23:19
Speaker 2: Now fourth of July, which is a Saturday, it's going
23:23
Speaker 2: to be Actually they're bringing it down a little ninety three,
23:26
Speaker 2: so it's possible this heat wave comes down just a bit. However,
23:31
Speaker 2: there's a good chance of a thunderstorm in the afternoon,
23:34
Speaker 2: and yeah, that could could be a problem on the
23:38
Speaker 2: fourth of July. So you know, NBC was bought by
23:44
Speaker 2: Comcast years ago. It's part of this big Comcast empire.
23:48
Speaker 2: Brian Roberts the chairman, and it's an enormous conglomerate. But
23:53
Speaker 2: they've had enough of NBC. They want to get rid
23:57
Speaker 2: of it. So now you're gonna they'll spin it. Of
24:01
Speaker 2: course that NBC is so big that they want to
24:05
Speaker 2: spin it off into its own public company. That's a
24:08
Speaker 2: way of getting rid of it because it's a bad
24:10
Speaker 2: business for Comcasts. At the time, way back when ooh
24:15
Speaker 2: to own NBC was a big deal. You remember when
24:18
Speaker 2: ge was going to sell NBC. People were all over
24:21
Speaker 2: the place, the billionaires of the world, the big companies
24:24
Speaker 2: bidding trying to buy NBC. What a big thing that
24:29
Speaker 2: would be to own the NBCTV network. Well, now Comcast
24:33
Speaker 2: has had it for years, they'd like to get it
24:35
Speaker 2: the hell off their books. It's a it's a dying business.
24:39
Speaker 2: Nobody watches network TV anymore. All in network Television is
24:43
Speaker 2: twenty five million people the three networks. That's all they get.
24:47
Speaker 2: Twenty five million, AM radio get sixty three million. AMFM
24:53
Speaker 2: gets one hundred and fifty nine million. So for the
24:56
Speaker 2: networks they have twenty five million and NBC's only got
24:59
Speaker 2: about a third of that. It's a business that's not good,
25:03
Speaker 2: you know. Like here Bill mar gets the Mark Twain Award.
25:07
Speaker 2: That's a big TV special. It's on Netflix this year.
25:12
Speaker 2: It's not on the networks. It's not on CBS, it's
25:14
Speaker 2: not on NBC. It's going to be on Netflix. So
25:17
Speaker 2: it makes more sense to own something like Netflix. So
25:20
Speaker 2: Comcasts needs to get rid of NBC. They're separating it
25:23
Speaker 2: into a different company. They'll make an IPO out of it.
25:27
Speaker 2: They'll spin it off and they'll sell stock in it
25:32
Speaker 2: at least get some money for dumping it. They can't
25:34
Speaker 2: just out now sell it. Comcasts will continue to own
25:37
Speaker 2: nineteen percent of the stock, but I'll gradually dump that
25:42
Speaker 2: stock and be done with NBC. They got rid of
25:45
Speaker 2: MSNBC last year. They kicked them basically out of the
25:48
Speaker 2: company MSNBC. That's why they had to change the name
25:52
Speaker 2: to ms Now. It is now a separate company. It's
25:55
Speaker 2: a little company. In fact, they were thrown out of
25:58
Speaker 2: the Comcast building in Rockefeller Center. They now operate off
26:03
Speaker 2: out of some little studios in Times Square. They're looking
26:07
Speaker 2: for space in New Jersey. And you remember when you
26:11
Speaker 2: used to watch MSNBC, when they'd cover the news, actual news,
26:15
Speaker 2: they'd cut to the big correspondence all over the world,
26:18
Speaker 2: the NBC news correspondence. Now they don't have that resource anymore,
26:23
Speaker 2: so they always cut to some half assed stringer that
26:25
Speaker 2: they got somewhere. And that's about it. The Clive Davis
26:30
Speaker 2: funeral is taking place as we speak, Central Synagogue. Bruce Springsteen,
26:37
Speaker 2: a lot of artists are there, some expected to perform.
26:42
Speaker 2: Now you know, of course about George Soros, the crazy
26:46
Speaker 2: kookie George Soros. He is spending a ton of money
26:50
Speaker 2: on the midterms, a massive amount already. It's already spent
26:55
Speaker 2: one hundred and three million already and that number could
27:01
Speaker 2: double by the time the midterms come around. This will
27:04
Speaker 2: be a new record for Soros. The last record was
27:09
Speaker 2: four years ago he spent one hundred and twenty eight
27:12
Speaker 2: million on the midterms. This one guy one hundred and
27:15
Speaker 2: twenty eight million. So figure he goes to two hundred
27:18
Speaker 2: million this year, he's already spent one hundred and three
27:20
Speaker 2: million on the midterms. He runs it through these packs
27:24
Speaker 2: of his and distributes it to a democratic and socialists
27:28
Speaker 2: and crazy causes. Sorous is pretty old. He's old and feeble.
27:32
Speaker 2: And the son really runs this. This is Alex Soros,
27:36
Speaker 2: who's forty. The son is running most of this, So
27:40
Speaker 2: maybe the son is trying to deliberately break the father's record.
27:43
Speaker 2: But these guys financing all of this crap. I know
27:47
Speaker 2: it's bad for America. It hurts America, but that's what
27:49
Speaker 2: these guys want because they know how to profit off that.
27:53
Speaker 2: The other sorrows. The competitor who may even be bigger
27:57
Speaker 2: is a guy named Neville Roy Singham. He operates out
28:01
Speaker 2: of China. He's a Soros but he moved to China
28:04
Speaker 2: and operates out of Shanghai and he's protected by the
28:08
Speaker 2: Chinese government and he's financed by them as well. But
28:12
Speaker 2: we'll get back to that because the Justice Department is
28:14
Speaker 2: about to go after him. But we found Liz Peak. Well,
28:16
Speaker 2: Liz Peak, how you doing ype? We don't hear? Uh
28:22
Speaker 2: Liz Peak? Are you there? Let me push it in here,
28:27
Speaker 2: Liz Peak. Do we have you?
28:28
Speaker 5: Now you have me. I'm so sorry to be joining.
28:33
Speaker 2: I'm good. I'm good. So hey, we're talking about all
28:36
Speaker 2: these crazy socialists that got elected. So the people analyzing
28:41
Speaker 2: this say it had nothing to do with affordability. These young,
28:44
Speaker 2: crazy voters, they're really voting anti Israel. They're voting because
28:47
Speaker 2: they hate Trump so much and they think the Old
28:49
Speaker 2: Guard wasn't effective against Trump. What do you think?
28:53
Speaker 5: I think a lot of truth in that.
28:54
Speaker 6: And actually, yesterday I was thinking, you know, when Trump
28:57
Speaker 6: is out of it and there is peace in the
29:01
Speaker 6: Middle East, and Israel and Palestinians come to some sort
29:07
Speaker 6: of Israel and Lebanon, just some sort of marketing, all
29:10
Speaker 6: this goes away.
29:11
Speaker 5: I mean, it's just like and remember that all.
29:15
Speaker 6: These avis groups cycle through causes, right, it's Black Lives Matter,
29:19
Speaker 6: and then the next thing, you know, it's free Palestine.
29:22
Speaker 6: I mean, I don't think I don't think they're wetted
29:24
Speaker 6: to these causes. And I do think yet that that
29:29
Speaker 6: the anti Israel thing is the most motivating of all
29:33
Speaker 6: these issues that are out there, certainly more than your
29:36
Speaker 6: rent have going going up five percent. Right, So when
29:40
Speaker 6: you when you know, back before Mamdani was elected, we
29:45
Speaker 6: did a forum on getting Republican voters out. You know,
29:49
Speaker 6: could Republicans have any kind of voice in this election?
29:52
Speaker 5: The export at the end of the they was no.
29:54
Speaker 5: But when there was a.
29:56
Speaker 6: Young activist guy who was on a panel that I
29:59
Speaker 6: spoke on, and he said, as he talked to people
30:02
Speaker 6: in the street, the number one thing for young old
30:06
Speaker 6: Jews non Jews that drove them to vote for Mom
30:10
Speaker 6: Donnie was the Israel question. And I thought that was
30:13
Speaker 6: really pretty stunning, And obviously it's had a huge impact
30:16
Speaker 6: on the Jewish vote. Jews seventy percent historically have voted
30:21
Speaker 6: for Democrats.
30:23
Speaker 5: Now they are really angry.
30:26
Speaker 6: About this shift to the anti Israel Democratic Party, but
30:32
Speaker 6: there's a good forty percent of them young people who
30:35
Speaker 6: voted for Mamdani. So it's really scrambled traditional voting blocks.
30:42
Speaker 6: The only thing I'd say that makes me somewhat hopeful.
30:44
Speaker 6: I don't know if you heard Raphael Warnock yesterday on CNN,
30:49
Speaker 6: but he basically, after all, representing Georgia, which is a
30:53
Speaker 6: swing state and has a lot of conservative black voters,
30:57
Speaker 6: he was kind of like, well, you know, I don't
30:59
Speaker 6: think we have to. I don't agree. Country without borders
31:03
Speaker 6: is not a country. A city without police is not safe,
31:08
Speaker 6: et cetera. So I do think you've got some solid
31:14
Speaker 6: pushback from, for example, conservative blacks, and I think you're
31:18
Speaker 6: going to get more pushback from the Jewish population.
31:21
Speaker 5: We just haven't seen it yet.
31:23
Speaker 2: Yeah, we only got a minute left. But whatever, it's
31:26
Speaker 2: caused the what normally would have been the mainstream guys
31:28
Speaker 2: like Schumer or Tink Pritzker. You wrote about Pritzker. It's
31:31
Speaker 2: causing these people to act like wacos.
31:35
Speaker 5: Yeah, don't they realize they're scared. They're scared.
31:38
Speaker 6: Schumer, I think is really the most abjectly cowardly of
31:44
Speaker 6: all the Democrats and leadership positions. Right now, he is
31:47
Speaker 6: the number one elected Jewish representative.
31:51
Speaker 5: I mean, that's just a fair way of saying it.
31:52
Speaker 5: And he represents New York.
31:54
Speaker 6: His problem is that Alexandrio Cosco Cortez, a Democratic Socialist,
31:59
Speaker 6: has her sites on challengeing Schumer to become, you know,
32:05
Speaker 6: to replace him in the Senate, and right now and
32:08
Speaker 6: actually over the last year mark, the polling would suggest
32:11
Speaker 6: that she has a shot of doing that.
32:13
Speaker 5: So Schumer is terrified of alienating these young.
32:18
Speaker 6: Anti Israel voters, and so he has not stood up
32:21
Speaker 6: when there are overt anti Semitic. Forget anti Israel, the
32:26
Speaker 6: anti Semitism that's come to light in the Democratic Party
32:30
Speaker 6: is so offensive, but apparently it no longer offends Chuck Schumer.
32:34
Speaker 6: I mean, I hope people dump him, frankly, because he's
32:38
Speaker 6: just turned out to be such an incredible cynical pal,
32:42
Speaker 6: you know, but shame on him.
32:45
Speaker 2: Well, hey, we're out of time, but we started late.
32:47
Speaker 2: We'll have to make.
32:48
Speaker 5: A Yeah, I'm so sorry, probably on me.
