• 2:10
  Speaker 1: h Richard and Bay Shore. Richard, how you doing, Thank
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: you morning.
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: Mark. You know, the President's I did of ensuring the
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: ships transli into the war zone is great, but when
• 2:20
  Speaker 5: taking a step further and try to develop an American
• 2:23
  Speaker 5: version of Lloyd's me.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: Well, that we have that. We have that. In fact,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: that's what the President said he'll do. If if you
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: can't get the insurance companies come in, we'll it. We'll
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: just insure them, which is easy to do. We'll we'll
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: insure the tankers and then escort them through. But expect
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: it to happen later this week or next week. They'll
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: start bringing tankers through. And once the tankers start moving
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: through with the oil, you'll see prices coming right back down.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Roberta in Queen's Roberta. How you doing, hi, Mark?
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: You know the demonstrations in front of Grating mansion. Why
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: didn't they tend.
• 2:55
  Speaker 5: Social workers instead of belief?
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right, that's right outside your house. Terrorists with bombs. Yes,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: send a social worker to discuss it with him. So
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: good point. Thanks for calling mom. Donnie still talking about that. Hey,
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he knows, but the NYPD has
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: tried this experiment where if it's a domestic violence call,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: you send in a social worker. They've tried this about
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: four times over the last thirty forty years. It never works.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: It fails every time. In fact, the problem is a
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: lot of social workers get harmed, killed, murdered. There's no
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: social worker that wants to answer a domestic violence call.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: To begin with. Let's go to Joel in Florida. Joel,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: how you doing.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Good morning, Mark. I'm just a simple question. For years,
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: we've been talking about drill, baby, drill, and we have
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: our own domestic oil instead of having to deal with
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: all these tankers coming through the Middle East. Why can
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: we not just use our own oil more efficiently?
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: Oh, we do. We have more oil than Saudi Arabia.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: We have more oil than around, We have plenty of Well,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: this hold price of oil spiking way up. This happens
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: Wall Street will panic. You saw it when the President
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: Trump started the terrace. I remember the market went down,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: just plunged, just plunged. It was no reason for that,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: absolutely no reason for that. And then a week later
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: it came back and not only came back, but went
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: to record highs and went to fifty thousand. Same thing here,
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: stock market panicked, and the oil companies panic, and they
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: take advantage of it. For a couple of weeks, spike
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: the price up to one hundred dollars a barrel. There's
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: actually no reason for it right now. There's plenty of oil.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: There's no shortage of oil. In fact, we have a
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: glut of oil as we speak. In fact, if you
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: want to bring some oil, and we don't even have
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: any storage space left, oil is filling every storage space
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: right now. There's absolutely no reason to do all of this. Hey,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: coming up, Well, Michael Goodwin will be with us in
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: a few moments. We've got a lot to get to. Hey, Also,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: remind me to get to the big Arch McDonald's a big, huge, Well,
• 4:56

• 4:58
  Speaker 1: coming up. Also, depart and stories are closing like crazy
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: all over the Tri state area. It's getting really, really
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: really bad. So that and a lot more just ahead.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: And as I said, Michael Goodwin he's been under the
• 5:10
