Latest / Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning / Hour 3: Mamdani's approval rating
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: So, Larry, we had a poll a Siena Pole on
- 0:03Speaker 1: the gubernatorial race here in New York State. Good news
- 0:07Speaker 1: for Blakeman. He's only ten points behind. He's in better
- 0:11Speaker 1: shape than Zelden was at the same point when he
- 0:15Speaker 1: was running against the brand new governor Hokele, who replaced
- 0:18Speaker 1: Andrew Evilized Cuomo. Eventually he would lose by six percentage
- 0:23Speaker 1: point Selden versus Hkeel. So that's a good sign for
- 0:27Speaker 1: Team Blakeman. The other sign that comes out of the
- 0:30Speaker 1: Sienna New York poll is that clearly both sides want
- 0:34Speaker 1: to make the campaign Hokeel married to Mandami. That's what
- 0:40Speaker 1: Blakeman and the Republicans are pounding away. And obviously Hokel
- 0:45Speaker 1: is pounding away Blakeman married to Donald Trump. So let
- 0:50Speaker 1: me break down the poll results for Zoran Mandami first,
- 0:54Speaker 1: who announced yesterday he'll be going away for a week
- 0:57Speaker 1: on a vacation just somewhere upstate New York. Now, anybody
- 1:01Speaker 1: in New York knows when people say upstate New York, Larry,
- 1:04Speaker 1: they could mean north of the Bronx, north of west Chester,
- 1:08Speaker 1: north of the mid Hudson Valley, like starting at Poughkeepsie,
- 1:12Speaker 1: the end of the metro line. Well, who knows. Maybe
- 1:16Speaker 1: up in the Adirondecks, where no people live at all,
- 1:19Speaker 1: they've all left. But for those in New York City
- 1:22Speaker 1: who thought that Zorhan Mandami has taken a hit on
- 1:26Speaker 1: his favorability, think again. Sixty nine percent of those in
- 1:32Speaker 1: New York City have a favorable impression of this new mayor,
- 1:37Speaker 1: twenty four percent an unfavorable. But then when you go
- 1:40Speaker 1: to the suburbs, obviously you're talking Long Island, you're talking
- 1:45Speaker 1: Nassa or Suffolk, west Chester surrounding suburbs, he has an
- 1:50Speaker 1: unfavorability of sixty percent, a favorability of thirty four percent.
- 1:55Speaker 1: And then when you go to upstate wherever you define
- 1:58Speaker 1: that as being, let's just say it's north, his acceptability
- 2:03Speaker 1: is forty one percent. His unacceptability is forty six percent.
- 2:07Speaker 1: So overall, when you look statewide, Zorhanmandami has a favorable
- 2:13Speaker 1: rating because it's weighted towards New York City, that's where
- 2:15Speaker 1: most of the vote is forty seven percent favorable, forty
- 2:19Speaker 1: four percent unfavorable. So this tells teen blakeman Man, gotta
- 2:24Speaker 1: get into the suburbs, gotta get up state gotta marry Hokul, Tomandami.
- 2:28Speaker 1: They're like, you know, Siamese twins. In terms of Blakeman,
- 2:34Speaker 1: his problem is is that Trump is sixty percent unfavorable
- 2:39Speaker 1: throughout the state thirty eight percent unfavorable. So that's why
- 2:43Speaker 1: you're going to see Hokal who's sitting on a pile
- 2:47Speaker 1: of cash. Every every ad will be whether she does
- 2:50Speaker 1: AI or real ads, it'll be uh Blakeman with Trump.
- 2:54Speaker 1: But I would say overall, at this point in the race,
- 2:57Speaker 1: when not even at Labor Day, not bad for Bruce Blakeman.
- 3:03Speaker 1: But if you're in New York City and thinking that
- 3:07Speaker 1: Jaran Mandani has been hurt, he's doing better than ever before,
- 3:12Speaker 1: even though we're only like seven months into his mayoralty.
- 3:15Speaker 2: Yeah, the Republican point of view on all of this
- 3:18Speaker 2: is New York's not winnable for Blakeman. I think that
- 3:22Speaker 2: they have kind of given up on Blakeman. It's a
- 3:25Speaker 2: shame to say. I like Bruce Blakeman a whole lot,
- 3:28Speaker 2: but he's going to hit his head at about forty
- 3:30Speaker 2: four percent is probably the highest he could ever get.
- 3:33Speaker 2: And it's just the state. It's the state of New
- 3:35Speaker 2: York and it's the city. The city's even worse. But
- 3:40Speaker 2: Mam Donnie. The Republicans nationally love to use mom Donnie.
- 3:45Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, You've heard them over and
- 3:47Speaker 2: over call all of the other DSA candidates all across
- 3:51Speaker 2: the country, many Mam Donni's. They want to hook everything
- 3:54Speaker 2: to him. He is the boogeyman nationally. He does not
- 3:58Speaker 2: pull well nationally. What's funny about it, though, because we
- 4:02Speaker 2: think mam Donni, Mom Danni, mom Donni, he's everything. You know, Oh,
- 4:04Speaker 2: we got to talk about him all the time. Yet
- 4:07Speaker 2: when Gallup went out to do a poll, they wrote,
- 4:11Speaker 2: a significant portion of the national electorate does not know
- 4:15Speaker 2: about Mondan enough about mom Donni to form an opinion.
- 4:19Speaker 2: So outside of our bubble, mom Donni for most people
- 4:24Speaker 2: is irrelevant. Socialism, however, which is mom Donnie. Now, he's
- 4:30Speaker 2: the face of in America, extremely unpopular among independents and Republicans,
- 4:38Speaker 2: so they will continue to use mom Donni outside of
- 4:42Speaker 2: the state. Inside of the state. All the numbers you said,
- 4:45Speaker 2: some of them are surprising because he's so unpopular in
- 4:47Speaker 2: some areas. But across the country, Mam Donni is not
- 4:51Speaker 2: that popular. As a matter of fact, his popularity is
- 4:54Speaker 2: down around Long Island about thirty eight percent nationally for
- 4:57Speaker 2: those who know something about him, So he's to be
- 5:00Speaker 2: used by the Republican Party over and over and over again.
- 5:04Speaker 2: But with those numbers you gave, what's surprise him to me, Curtis,
- 5:07Speaker 2: And you can tell me because you know New York
- 5:10Speaker 2: politics better than I do. Why does hokl tie herself
- 5:14Speaker 2: to mam Donni so much? If he doesn't play well
- 5:16Speaker 2: outside the city.
- 5:18Speaker 1: To get the younger vote, that's really the key, and
- 5:22Speaker 1: Mandami has a lock on the younger vote all over
- 5:25Speaker 1: the state. When you break out, they'd call it break out.
- 5:28Speaker 1: These stats, so even in places like Nassau and Suffolk,
- 5:31Speaker 1: where he's doing poorly, as you pointed out, he only
- 5:35Speaker 1: is thirty four percent favorable sixty percent unfavorable. That thirty
- 5:40Speaker 1: four percent is mostly people who are eighteen to forty,
- 5:44Speaker 1: So basically gen Z's and some of the millennials. An
- 5:49Speaker 1: upstate he does a little better, but basically there's nobody
- 5:53Speaker 1: left up to date, they've all left. But just to
- 5:55Speaker 1: give you some other facts, statewide, eighty percent of black
- 5:59Speaker 1: people in this survey, like Mandami, seventy two percent of young,
- 6:04Speaker 1: so he's actually doing better. In the African American community.
- 6:07Speaker 1: Sixty percent of sixty six percent of Jews say xnay
- 6:11Speaker 1: on Mondami. They hate him, but he still gets thirty
- 6:14Speaker 1: percent of the Jews and those who are fifty five plus,
- 6:17Speaker 1: that's a lot of people who listen to us at
- 6:19Speaker 1: talk radio. Fifty one percent of them are opposed as
- 6:23Speaker 1: or on. Thirty eight percent don't have a problem with him.
- 6:26Speaker 1: So statewide he's down, but citywide, if you're hoping to
- 6:30Speaker 1: knock him off his horse, he's never done better.
- 6:33Speaker 2: Yeah, it's funny because across the country, Mam Donni and
- 6:35Speaker 2: socialism among African Americans extremely low. They're not buying into
- 6:40Speaker 2: it at all. And that's a big problem for the
- 6:41Speaker 2: Democratic Party because they need the African American vote and
- 6:46Speaker 2: if they run DSA candidates, they ain't gonna get them.
- 6:49Speaker 2: And so there's a real problem across the country. So
- 6:53Speaker 2: I think most Republicans across the country say thank you
- 6:56Speaker 2: to Mam Donni, thank you for bringing this to our constry.
- 7:00Speaker 1: Democrats say thank you to Donald Trump, who's so low
- 7:02Speaker 1: in the polls, because they're going to tie every Republican
- 7:06Speaker 1: to Donald Trump. And in those areas where it's a
- 7:09Speaker 1: toss up, and we got a few toss ups in
- 7:11Speaker 1: our own area that could end up hurting the Republicans
- 7:15Speaker 1: unless at pricey gasoline goes down, groceries go down, and
- 7:19Speaker 1: somehow we come to some resolution with the war with Iran.
- 7:23Speaker 2: Donald Trump can improve his numbers, Socialism cannot improve its numbers.
- 7:28Speaker 2: So I do believe the Republicans have an advantage here
- 7:31Speaker 2: only because remember in the midterm elections, and I preach
- 7:35Speaker 2: this all the time because it's been preached to me
- 7:37Speaker 2: by people who know a lot more about politics. Midterm elections,
- 7:41Speaker 2: for the most part, are about anger. It's about motivating
- 7:44Speaker 2: your base with anger, because otherwise they just won't vote.
- 7:49Speaker 2: So if there is a boogeyman and for the you're right,
- 7:52Speaker 2: for the Democrats, it's Donald Trump, but that may change.
- 7:56Speaker 2: Do they hate Donald Trump more than Republicpuplicans hate socialism?
- 8:02Speaker 2: And if so, the deciding factor, let's just say it's
- 8:05Speaker 2: even right. The deciding fag or factor would be independence,
- 8:09Speaker 2: and independence hates socialism a whole lot more than they
- 8:12Speaker 2: hate Donald Trump. Donald Trump's up at around forty percent
- 8:16Speaker 2: with independence. Socialism is down at seventeen percent. So that's
- 8:21Speaker 2: why you hear Republicans talking about it all the time.
- 8:24Speaker 2: That's why we've been talking about it because it is
- 8:28Speaker 2: now nationwide. So it's going to be really interesting because
- 8:31Speaker 2: in a place like New York City, socialism is positive.
- 8:35Speaker 2: So you may not understand what's going on around the country,
- 8:38Speaker 2: but those numbers that you gave in New York well fascinating.
- 8:42Speaker 1: To give you an example, in New York City, fifty
- 8:44Speaker 1: one percent of those surveyed support the DSA. That's fifty
- 8:50Speaker 1: one percent. That's what Jorhan got in the general election
- 8:54Speaker 1: against Andrew evilized Cromo on myself, and yet his acceptability
- 8:59Speaker 1: goes beyond that, even though DSA is low because of
- 9:04Speaker 1: his smiling way, because of his beguiling way. You got
- 9:08Speaker 1: that Chris beguiling. Let's get the quiet storm on that
- 9:12Speaker 1: beguiling way. I've heard the word. I don't know what
- 9:14Speaker 1: it means. Okay, I couldn't tell you that the word.
- 9:17Speaker 1: It's multi syllabic, I get it. But the point is
- 9:20Speaker 1: is that smile. Just like we talked about with Levitt
- 9:24Speaker 1: leaving as the spokesperson for the Trump White House, she
- 9:29Speaker 1: can scorch you, she can go score shirts. But he
- 9:31Speaker 1: does it with a smile, l sied, many of the
- 9:34Speaker 1: people said, and ultimately he won because he'd always have
- 9:37Speaker 1: a smile, whereas hung in Wisconsin didn't always have a smile. Yeah,
- 9:44Speaker 1: so maybe the new kind of politics is no matter
- 9:46Speaker 1: who you are, all right for left somewhere in between
- 9:50Speaker 1: his smile singing in the rain? Remember that that famous
- 9:54Speaker 1: Who is that not Grace Kelly? A gene Kelly singing
- 9:58Speaker 1: in the ring.
- 10:00Speaker 2: As one of those Kellies. Dammit. Yes, when we come back, listen,
- 10:03Speaker 2: all I'm gonna tell you is about there was a
- 10:06Speaker 2: snake found in a football helmet that the guy actually
- 10:08Speaker 2: put on, and then there was a piranha found in
- 10:12Speaker 2: a creek on the east coast of the United States.
- 10:16Speaker 2: We'll explain both when we come back. Plus, you got
- 10:18Speaker 2: your chance coming up next to see John Fergerty and
- 10:21Speaker 2: Steve Onewood, so stay with us.

- 10:59Speaker 2: All right, up, a little frightening stories to tell you about.
- 11:02Speaker 2: One comes to us from Arkansas. Well, you know, it's
- 11:05Speaker 2: the time of year at football. The high schools are
- 11:08Speaker 2: out practicing already. Football is out practicing already, and this
- 11:11Speaker 2: is a high school in monta Wall, Arkansas. So practice
- 11:17Speaker 2: is going on. All the kids put on their helmet.
- 11:19Speaker 2: One of the kids felt something wriggling in his helmet.
- 11:23Speaker 2: He already had it on, and it was just wriggling
- 11:25Speaker 2: all around. And it turns out he took it off
- 11:28Speaker 2: to take a look and it was a two foot long,
- 11:31Speaker 2: venomous cotton mouth snake. You know how they have the
- 11:36Speaker 2: padding and the helmet, there's a little bit area before
- 11:38Speaker 2: the hard part and they have the patty. He got
- 11:41Speaker 2: up in between there, luckily enough, so he was separated
- 11:44Speaker 2: from the kid's head. You could see, I've seen the
- 11:47Speaker 2: pictures of it. You could see his face, so he
- 11:50Speaker 2: could have bit the kid if he wanted to. But
- 11:53Speaker 2: the kid took it off, saw it was a cotton mouth.
- 11:55Speaker 2: Apparently nobody got really upset, I guess because it's Arkansas.
- 11:59Speaker 2: They thought it was actually pretty cool. The kid went
- 12:02Speaker 2: back to practice. They called animal control and Ned Davis
- 12:06Speaker 2: showed up, and Ned Davis is a good old boy.
- 12:09Speaker 3: The cotton out, in my opinion, is probably the second
- 12:13Speaker 3: most venomous snake here in Arkansas. I would say the
- 12:16Speaker 3: rattlesnake is probably the number one. If this snake would
- 12:20Speaker 3: have bit the child and probably would have been very fatal.
- 12:24Speaker 2: It would have been very fatal.
- 12:29Speaker 1: I have something not quite as extreme. So I'm trying
- 12:32Speaker 1: out freshman football Brooklyn Prep Jesuit High School, and they
- 12:36Speaker 1: give me a leather helmet like Gerald Ford wore at
- 12:39Speaker 1: the University of Michigan. WI judge, a plastic faceguard. Obviously,
- 12:43Speaker 1: I started doing well enough to earn the right down,
- 12:46Speaker 1: you know, plastic helmet normally you would have with a
- 12:49Speaker 1: normal faceguard. And there were yellow jackets inside wasps.
- 12:54Speaker 2: That's worse.
- 12:54Speaker 1: So I put it on my head and I'm wondering,
- 12:59Speaker 1: you know, because we would do and some pounding going
- 13:01Speaker 1: back my head is. You know, I've taken a few
- 13:05Speaker 1: four arm shivish. It was yellow jackets, sting man.
- 13:11Speaker 2: That's the worst.
- 13:12Speaker 1: I wanted to go back to the leather helmet.
- 13:15Speaker 2: I can't imagine that. I think that beats the cotton mouth,
- 13:18Speaker 2: to tell you the truth, because the cotton mouth didn't
- 13:20Speaker 2: bite another one. Real quick. I want to tell you
- 13:22Speaker 2: about and this is down where I grew up in
- 13:24Speaker 2: Delaware County, Pennsylvania, Ridley Creek. I know it well. There
- 13:28Speaker 2: was some kids out fishing. They're really young, eight year olds,
- 13:31Speaker 2: all out fishing with their little rods in the creek there.
- 13:34Speaker 2: One of them pulls in a fish that he's never
- 13:36Speaker 2: seen before. Turns out it was a nine and a
- 13:40Speaker 2: half inch two pound piranha. The teeth and everything from
- 13:46Speaker 2: the Amazon, So obviously somebody had a tropical fish and
- 13:51Speaker 2: and caught this. Now, he put it in a bucket
- 13:53Speaker 2: and he took it home, and his parents said, you know,
- 13:56Speaker 2: we're gonna call it them all control. This isn't a
- 13:58Speaker 2: normal thing, and they said they humanely put it down,
- 14:02Speaker 2: but they said, obviously this is somebody that collects exotic animals,
- 14:06Speaker 2: and they've put out a message, please please, please, call us.
- 14:11Speaker 2: If you're gonna get rid of an animal like this,
- 14:13Speaker 2: please call us.
- 14:15Speaker 1: Don't. It's not like putting goldfish in a pond. No,
- 14:18Speaker 1: there's a piranha with the razor teeth.
- 14:20Speaker 2: Yeah, and it would have died. It's fine there for
- 14:24Speaker 2: the summer. You know, it's a tropical fish. It needs
- 14:27Speaker 2: hot water.
- 14:28Speaker 1: So what did the other fish think when all of
- 14:30Speaker 1: a sudden this piranha was in the same creek?
- 14:33Speaker 2: I was thinking the same thing you. How about the salamanders?
- 14:35Speaker 2: You know, I enter the reptiles nearbyer like, who's this guy?
- 14:39Speaker 2: Who's the new bully in town? Let's get some talk facts.
- 14:44Speaker 4: Where is this pole that says Jersey's second best state
- 14:48Speaker 4: to liven This state is miserably horrible. There's nothing here.
- 14:54Speaker 4: They don't all they got of the beach and that's it.
- 14:57Speaker 4: That's it. They don't do one thing to help any
- 15:00Speaker 4: tax payer, and the taxes go up, services go down,
- 15:04Speaker 4: utility is are sky high. I do can thank half
- 15:07Speaker 4: of the bag Murphy for that. Oh no, we second best.
- 15:11Speaker 2: Come on, Hey, I suggest you moved to Idaho because
- 15:14Speaker 2: Idaho was number one on that list. It's got to
- 15:17Speaker 2: be a little bit better.
- 15:18Speaker 1: Well, there's more potatoes in Iowa or Idaho. Remember Jersey
- 15:22Speaker 1: is the tomato state. Or we say tomato, you think
- 15:26Speaker 1: it's fruit, We say it's a vegetable.
- 15:29Speaker 5: I believe the New York people need to understand that
- 15:34Speaker 5: Zorin Mandani did this second home tax with the permission
- 15:38Speaker 5: of Kathy Hoko. Couldn't have done it without her. So
- 15:41Speaker 5: do not be surprised if she gets re elected and
- 15:44Speaker 5: she does it for the whole state. You will be
- 15:46Speaker 5: paying more for less.
- 15:48Speaker 2: Excellent, excellent. I didn't even think of that. I think
- 15:51Speaker 2: that could happen.
- 15:52Speaker 1: Won't resonate, That's what one and people figure. I can
- 15:56Speaker 1: barely afford my house. What do I care about rich people?
- 15:59Speaker 1: Got to pay an extra tax on two houses doesn't
- 16:01Speaker 1: resonate in the streets.
- 16:02Speaker 2: The rich people care.
- 16:03Speaker 1: Yeah, but you know what they pay. The taxes they're
- 16:05Speaker 1: one percent is not going to determine who the next
- 16:08Speaker 1: governor is.
- 16:09Speaker 2: One percent, I know, but it affects the state one
- 16:11Speaker 2: percent of the people like fifty three percent of the
- 16:14Speaker 2: tax base.
- 16:15Speaker 6: I'm so happy to hear things about New Jersey. I'm
- 16:18Speaker 6: damnas from peremise. You just don't go out on route
- 16:21Speaker 6: seventeen on Saturdays, and you'll be fine.
- 16:28Speaker 1: Give me the insight on that one, because I'm not
- 16:30Speaker 1: the New Jersey What did you mean by that?
- 16:32Speaker 2: Yeah, there's some dangerous roads in New Jersey. There's a couple.
- 16:37Speaker 2: But luckily they didn't talk about drivers and roads on
- 16:42Speaker 2: the UH in the survey. Well, so that's why Jersey
- 16:46Speaker 2: did well.
- 16:46Speaker 1: Remember, I would say, you got to each bottlenet what
- 16:49Speaker 1: did they call them? Jug handles circles, you know, like
- 16:52Speaker 1: as if it's a UFO crop circle. Man, we should
- 16:56Speaker 1: do a whole segment. I give you every reason why
- 16:59Speaker 1: New Jersey should not be second in the survey.
- 17:01Speaker 2: Now, Daria Aubinger with the eight thirty News.
- 17:04Speaker 7: Area Morning, I would be honored to have John Fogerty
- 17:07Speaker 7: or Steve Winwood as a co anchor. Wouldn't that be cool,
- 17:10Speaker 7: even just for one day?
- 17:11Speaker 2: Absolutely, I wonder if I wonder if they'd do it,
- 17:13Speaker 2: We'll ask for you.
- 17:15Speaker 7: Yeah, I'd love that. It's going to be nice today, guys.
- 17:17Speaker 7: They've taken the rain out of the forecast. Partly cloudy,
- 17:20Speaker 7: We're going to see some clearing later on today in
- 17:21Speaker 7: a high of eighty five degrees even a little less
- 17:23Speaker 7: humid than it's been the past couple of days. Who
- 17:26Speaker 7: controls the Strait of hormones? The Iranian government says a
- 17:29Speaker 7: shipping lane will remain blocked until the US accepts all
- 17:32Speaker 7: of its conditions, but President Trump continues to insist the
- 17:35Speaker 7: US as total control of the strait. This much they
- 17:37Speaker 7: agree on. They want reparations from the other side. We're
- 17:41Speaker 7: getting even more details about that top secret mission to
- 17:44Speaker 7: get the President out of Turkey after intelligence officials got
- 17:47Speaker 7: word of an Iranian plot to kill them. It included
- 17:50Speaker 7: that planeful of people, including some cabinet members, who were
- 17:53Speaker 7: unknowingly serving as decoys in the sky.
- 17:55Speaker 6: Trump dismissing concerns about the threat posed to those who
- 17:59Speaker 6: remained aboard the plane he was supposed to be on.
- 18:02Speaker 1: Actually, the plane that I flow on was at greater risk.
- 18:06Speaker 8: I think it was.
- 18:07Speaker 3: Now the President has said he was just doing what
- 18:09Speaker 3: the military and Secret Service told him to do.
- 18:12Speaker 1: Ask what Trump thought of all this subterfuge. A top
- 18:14Speaker 1: aid says he loved it.
- 18:16Speaker 7: ABC's Mary Bruce. No rest for firefighters in Belleville, New Jersey,
- 18:20Speaker 7: where a fire has burned at least two homes.
- 18:23Speaker 8: Huge flames can be seen coming from several homes before
- 18:26Speaker 8: sunrise after a fire broke out around two thirty in
- 18:28Speaker 8: the morning. This was at a house on Crescent Terrace.

- 21:23Speaker 2: Luigi Mangioni, the accused killer of Brian Thompson. They accuse
- 21:28Speaker 2: him of stalking Brian Thompson and then murdering him. I'd
- 21:32Speaker 2: like to get rid of the accused and the alleged
- 21:35Speaker 2: because we all saw it and that's going to be
- 21:38Speaker 2: his problem going forward is everybody saw it. The world
- 21:42Speaker 2: saw it, and all of the warm feelings for Mangioni,
- 21:47Speaker 2: which are bizarre, are because of a lot of people
- 21:50Speaker 2: had trouble with the healthcare industry, and for some of
- 21:53Speaker 2: the women because they think he's very good looking and
- 21:56Speaker 2: it's so that's what makes the whole case strange. So
- 21:59Speaker 2: there was a hearing yesterday. They talked about making the
- 22:02Speaker 2: jury anonymous, they talked about possibly live streaming judges deciding
- 22:07Speaker 2: all of that, and then there was a fury after
- 22:10Speaker 2: the hearing ended. There was this fury of activity because
- 22:16Speaker 2: there was talk of a plea deal. Now that came
- 22:19Speaker 2: out because both the federal prosecutors and the defense team
- 22:25Speaker 2: filed a motion for a special conference on Friday tomorrow
- 22:31Speaker 2: at eleven a m. Now, they did have some discussions
- 22:35Speaker 2: yesterday and now they are going to have an official conference.
- 22:40Speaker 2: So what is going on now? Most people, We've talked
- 22:44Speaker 2: about it a little bit yesterday because it first got
- 22:46Speaker 2: out yesterday. And now it seems that most legal analysts
- 22:50Speaker 2: believe that there is some type of plea deal. But
- 22:54Speaker 2: it's confusing to a whole lot of people because the
- 22:58Speaker 2: more serious charges are with the state that could put
- 23:01Speaker 2: him away for a much longer time. The federal chargers. Remember,
- 23:06Speaker 2: murder federally got thrown out, so there's only two counts
- 23:09Speaker 2: of stalking against him, but those counts of stalking interstate
- 23:15Speaker 2: stalking could put him in prison for the rest of
- 23:18Speaker 2: his life. And if you look at the state charges,
- 23:21Speaker 2: it's twenty five years for a second degree murder and
- 23:23Speaker 2: some of the other charges. A lot of other charges
- 23:26Speaker 2: could total up. I guess it could be more, but
- 23:29Speaker 2: how can it be more than the rest of your life?
- 23:31Speaker 2: So I'm not sure what they have to offer him.
- 23:34Speaker 2: Making it even more complicated is that they can't offer
- 23:39Speaker 2: him a lower sentence. That's not up to them the
- 23:42Speaker 2: federal judge. The judge in a federal case has way
- 23:48Speaker 2: more power than an estate case. He gets the last say,
- 23:52Speaker 2: the only say on sentencing, so the sentencing is tied
- 23:57Speaker 2: to the charges, so there's very little wiggle room for negotiations.
- 24:02Speaker 2: And yet everyone saying it sure does smell like a
- 24:05Speaker 2: plea deal. So it's gonna be fascinating to see what
- 24:08Speaker 2: they come up with.
- 24:09Speaker 1: Well, I predict he won't do it. He wants to
- 24:11Speaker 1: be in the limelight. And by the way, Alvin Bragg,
- 24:13Speaker 1: who wants to be in the limelight too, is saying
- 24:15Speaker 1: you can't do that because we're going to prosecute him. Well,
- 24:18Speaker 1: by tomorrow we're gonna find out. We're gonna find out.
- 24:21Speaker 1: But the other case is the execution assassination of Charlie Kirk.
- 24:28Speaker 1: Although we didn't see it in real time, all the
- 24:32Speaker 1: evidence leads to Tyler Robinson. And there's a death penalty
- 24:36Speaker 1: in Utah that could be put on this guy. Because
- 24:39Speaker 1: this goes back. Remember when they renewed the death penalty,
- 24:41Speaker 1: the United States Main Court says, you can do it again.
- 24:44Speaker 1: The first one was Gary Gilmore. They made the movie
- 24:46Speaker 1: about that. Remember what would you like? Would you like
- 24:49Speaker 1: to be electrocuted? Would you like to guess chamber? What
- 24:52Speaker 1: would you like? Firing squad? And remember Gary Gilmore said
- 24:55Speaker 1: firing squad. But apparently the only defense that's a measure
- 25:00Speaker 1: for Tyler Robinson is to say, yeah, he had four
- 25:04Speaker 1: bullets in his rifle, his grandfather's rifle, but he only
- 25:08Speaker 1: shot one bullet and it didn't endanger anybody in the crown.
- 25:12Speaker 1: And I guess, Larry, that means you can't get a
- 25:15Speaker 1: death penalty charge on him. Anytime you shoot a bullet,
- 25:18Speaker 1: it can endanger anybody, anytime, anyplace.
- 25:21Speaker 2: Yeah, and the idea was that anytime you shoot, you
- 25:24Speaker 2: can hurt somebody. That's why, if you've noticed all the
- 25:27Speaker 2: stories on it, when they when they talk about the
- 25:30Speaker 2: fact that they're trying to pull this off, they call
- 25:32Speaker 2: it about an outrageous objection, an outrageous plea, or an
- 25:38Speaker 2: absurd that all these adjectives are put behind the motion
- 25:42Speaker 2: they're making or in front of the motion they're making.
- 25:45Speaker 2: So I don't think he has a chance at this
- 25:47Speaker 2: because it justifies logic. If you had four bullets, you
- 25:52Speaker 2: thought to yourself, you might miss the first time, and
- 25:54Speaker 2: you'd shoot more bullets, so you came there ready to
- 25:58Speaker 2: fire at least times. You got lucky with the first
- 26:02Speaker 2: shot or unlucky, depending on how you want to look
- 26:05Speaker 2: at it. But still, I mean, look, I don't I
- 26:09Speaker 2: don't blame them. They're going to try anything they can
- 26:11Speaker 2: at this point because it looks like he's confessed to it. Basically,
- 26:16Speaker 2: you know, in both a note and orally you have
- 26:18Speaker 2: a witness that say he confessed to it. You have
- 26:20Speaker 2: a note that says he confessed to it, So he's
- 26:23Speaker 2: done with and they're gonna try everything, so I don't
- 26:26Speaker 2: blame them for trying this, but there's no shot.
- 26:30Speaker 1: Well, I want to see that shot take place a
- 26:32Speaker 1: firing squad. Utah has a firing squad as a de
- 26:36Speaker 1: that's mentalty. I want to see that. I mean, that
- 26:38Speaker 1: was it. I mean an execution and assassination.
- 26:43Speaker 2: And for what I mean, look at this guy, as
- 26:46Speaker 2: smart as he's supposed to be, is suffering from some
- 26:49Speaker 2: kind of mental illness. There's no question about that.
- 26:52Speaker 1: Well, up next, we got to give you a preview
- 26:54Speaker 1: because we're going to do the full dive tomorrow. Department
- 26:58Speaker 1: A Home Land Services has ordered gloves for twenty million
- 27:04Speaker 1: dollars for the ice agents. Except these gloves are not leadlined.
- 27:10Speaker 1: I remember they used to be very powerful in the seventies,
- 27:13Speaker 1: very popular, But these give you an electrical zap, almost
- 27:19Speaker 1: like Pavlov's dogs. We used to hear that when we
- 27:21Speaker 1: were growing up. So we'll get into it in terms
- 27:24Speaker 1: of whether they're ever going to actually be able to
- 27:27Speaker 1: do it, and we know New York State is announced
- 27:29Speaker 1: they're challenging them right away.
- 27:31Speaker 2: So have you bought life back yet? To protect your family, children, grandchildren,
- 27:36Speaker 2: your loved ones, any of your loved ones. It can
- 27:39Speaker 2: happen to anyone. I know. As someone who spent a
- 27:42Speaker 2: career reporting the news, I know how quickly an ordinary
- 27:46Speaker 2: moment can turn into an emergency. That is especially true
- 27:50Speaker 2: of choking. It is one of those moments that can
- 27:53Speaker 2: happen to anyone. Anytime you put something in your mouth,
- 27:57Speaker 2: it can cause you to choke a child, parent, a grandparent.
- 28:01Speaker 2: And when it does, seconds matter. That's why I want
- 28:05Speaker 2: to tell you about Life Back. Life BAC is the
- 28:07Speaker 2: first and only FDA authorized suction anti choking device to
- 28:12Speaker 2: be used for second line treatment when recommended choking protocols
- 28:17Speaker 2: have been followed without success, the heimlicks hitting somebody on
- 28:21Speaker 2: the back. It doesn't always work. And here's what's remarkable.
- 28:26Speaker 2: Life Back has helped save over six thousand lives worldwide.
- 28:31Speaker 2: Six thousand lives. We're talking about real people, real families,
- 28:36Speaker 2: real second chances that had to deal with an emergency,
- 28:39Speaker 2: and they had the equipment nearby to save a life,
- 28:43Speaker 2: and they'd move on as if nothing happened. Preparedness matters.
- 28:48Speaker 2: Having the right tool nearby can make all the difference
- 28:52Speaker 2: in the world. Learn more about life fac today at

- 29:01Speaker 2: see how you can be ready when it counts.
- 29:04Speaker 1: Here we have Attorney General Tiss James, Governor Hochal saying
- 29:09Speaker 1: to ICE, now that they have a procurement contract twenty
- 29:14Speaker 1: million dollars to purchase gloves for ICE agents, let me
- 29:18Speaker 1: get an immigration naturalization service that zap you when they
- 29:23Speaker 1: grab on to you. And so they already have a
- 29:27Speaker 1: lawsuit against them wearing masks, masks and not having proper identification.
- 29:31Speaker 1: The federal court system has ruled against them so far,
- 29:35Speaker 1: so now they have another reason to go into court.
- 29:37Speaker 1: But that was announced yesterday, including that at the same time,
- 29:42Speaker 1: all the ICE agents will have cameras on them that
- 29:47Speaker 1: they't have to put on when they're active out in
- 29:49Speaker 1: the streets or they're grabbing a fugitive. So I'm toying
- 29:54Speaker 1: with this, and I'm saying, I've seen ICE over the years, Larry.
- 29:58Speaker 1: I saw them with Obama. They actually end ended up
- 30:00Speaker 1: grabbing more people in the Obama administration than they have
- 30:03Speaker 1: with the Trump administration. And I've seen bounty hunters and
- 30:06Speaker 1: I've seen federal marshals. You know they have the task Force,
- 30:09Speaker 1: Fugitive task Force, but I never saw them use all
- 30:13Speaker 1: those methods. So why do you think all of these
- 30:16Speaker 1: additional measures in order to grab people that they have
- 30:21Speaker 1: a detainer for.
- 30:23Speaker 2: Yeah, well, they didn't dos people so they didn't have
- 30:26Speaker 2: to wear masks in the past. Now that's become a
- 30:28Speaker 2: thing because Donald Trump has ordered it. When Obama ordered it,
- 30:31Speaker 2: it was fine. You don't know half the things they
- 30:34Speaker 2: did because they weren't publicized and we didn't see them.
- 30:37Speaker 2: We do know they used tasers back then. We do
- 30:41Speaker 2: know they threw people to the ground. We do know
- 30:44Speaker 2: they got physical with the people. We do know they
- 30:47Speaker 2: pointed guns at people in the past. All the things
- 30:50Speaker 2: that people are complaining about today under Donald Trump happened
- 30:53Speaker 2: under President Obama. If you're going to use a taser
- 30:57Speaker 2: and nobody's complained about that, which they use all the time,
- 31:00Speaker 2: and that actually goes under the skin, it creates a
- 31:04Speaker 2: couple of holes in the skin, and it's much more dangerous.
- 31:08Speaker 2: These gloves are less dangerous. So I don't understand. I
- 31:12Speaker 2: think anything Ice does people are going to get upset
- 31:15Speaker 2: about and go against and all of it. All of
- 31:18Speaker 2: it is political. It's all coming from the Democratic Party
- 31:21Speaker 2: because they want to run on this coming up in
- 31:23Speaker 2: the midterms. Let both sides do this kind of stuff.
- 31:26Speaker 2: But it gets nauseating after a while. You let all
- 31:30Speaker 2: these people into the country here illegally, you know, Donald
- 31:35Speaker 2: Trump ran on taking them out. Now you're still upset
- 31:38Speaker 2: about it, and you're still running on this. So and
- 31:41Speaker 2: in the middle are all these poor people that are pawns.
- 31:44Speaker 1: Well. I have problems with some of it. We'll do
- 31:47Speaker 1: the deep dive tomorrow when we return on Friday. But meantime, Larry,
- 31:52Speaker 1: we have a talkback and the talkback.
