Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Now, 710WOR presents The Mark Simone Show. Well, hey, what
- 0:09Speaker 1: is it today? Wednesday already. The middle of the week already.
- 0:12Speaker 1: First full day of autumn today. UN still in session.
- 0:16Speaker 1: Can't get rid of these people. And there's a lot
- 0:19Speaker 1: happening today. We'll go over it with you and get
- 0:21Speaker 1: you up to date on everything. President spoke yesterday at
- 0:26Speaker 1: the United Nations meeting. It was an unusual speech, not
- 0:30Speaker 1: for him. A good thing is he spoke an hour
- 0:33Speaker 1: last year, one hour. This was only 30 minutes, much
- 0:36Speaker 1: better speech. But the unusual thing was there were four
- 0:39Speaker 1: points in the speech where he got applause. This never
- 0:43Speaker 1: happens in that UN General Assembly where they burst out
- 0:45Speaker 1: into applause. But four times he got these crazy globalist
- 0:51Speaker 1: UN idiots, he got them to actually applaud him. That
- 0:55Speaker 1: was mostly over Iran. and stopping Iran from having a
- 0:59Speaker 1: nuclear weapon, Iran from being the biggest sponsor of terrorists
- 1:03Speaker 1: in the world, terrorism in the world, to Iran being
- 1:06Speaker 1: the bully of the Middle East. Those got applause lines,
- 1:10Speaker 1: and it was quite dramatic. Now, the president came to
- 1:12Speaker 1: the UN yesterday morning about 9.30. You know, he's a
- 1:17Speaker 1: fanatic as a builder. You see that at the White House.
- 1:20Speaker 1: Anytime he looks at a room and something could be fixed,
- 1:23Speaker 1: he fixes it. When you... First walk into the White House,
- 1:27Speaker 1: the special world leader guests that are brought in. The
- 1:31Speaker 1: first area they come into, it's like a little foyer.
- 1:33Speaker 1: It's called the Palm Court. And it was linoleum and plaster. Well,
- 1:39Speaker 1: he fixed the whole thing up. Beautiful marble floors, special walls.
- 1:43Speaker 1: A little too much gold there. But it's much nicer looking.
- 1:47Speaker 1: And then every time he looks at something, you know,
- 1:49Speaker 1: the helicopter landing on the grass, burning up the grass
- 1:52Speaker 1: every time. Let's put a helipad in. the Oval Office
- 1:57Speaker 1: needed fixing. I mean, kind of fix it a little
- 2:01Speaker 1: too much. The idea of putting some gold trim, very
- 2:04Speaker 1: good idea. Maybe not every inch of every wall. A
- 2:08Speaker 1: few more paintings, very good idea. Maybe not 600 new
- 2:12Speaker 1: paintings on the wall. So it might be a little over,
- 2:14Speaker 1: but he fixes everything he sees. Now, when you get
- 2:16Speaker 1: to the UN, and I've been there many times, when
- 2:20Speaker 1: you walk into the UN, first, You walk into an
- 2:24Speaker 1: area that's like the security check. It's like the TSA.
- 2:27Speaker 1: It looks like a dingy airport in Cleveland. It's a
- 2:30Speaker 1: million conveyor belts where you put your stuff. It gets x-rayed.
- 2:34Speaker 1: The metal detectors. It's like 17 rows of this stuff.
- 2:38Speaker 1: It's really ugly. I mean, really ugly. It looks like
- 2:41Speaker 1: a bad airport that hasn't been fixed up in 30 years.
- 2:44Speaker 1: Then when you get through into the actual UN and
- 2:46Speaker 1: you come down these massive hallways and into these big rooms,
- 2:51Speaker 1: you're just... amazed at how crappy they are. Everything in
- 2:56Speaker 1: the UN building is old. It's from the 1950s. It's crumbling.
- 3:00Speaker 1: It's decaying. It's a hideous looking building inside. Where they
- 3:04Speaker 1: make the speech, the General Assembly room with the green
- 3:07Speaker 1: tile behind. Okay, that looks pretty good. But the rest
- 3:10Speaker 1: of the building, absolute crap. So Trump, the builder, must
- 3:16Speaker 1: have such a headache walking through that building looking at everything.
- 3:20Speaker 1: And the whole UN is a disaster, a financial disaster.
- 3:23Speaker 1: They're heavily in debt. They make a mess of their finances.
- 3:27Speaker 1: The budget of the UN is $ 4 billion a year.
- 3:30Speaker 1: They spend $ 70 billion a year. They just have totally
- 3:34Speaker 1: out of control with the spending. And for all of
- 3:37Speaker 1: the spending, they get absolutely nothing tangible accomplished anywhere. But
- 3:42Speaker 1: Trump did get applause four times from these globalists, who
- 3:46Speaker 1: of course hate them, but they did applaud four times,
- 3:48Speaker 1: especially on the Iran stuff.
- 3:50Speaker 2: Or do I annihilate the Islamic Republic and do it quickly,
- 3:54Speaker 2: never giving them a chance to kill and destroy people
- 3:58Speaker 2: and countries again?
- 3:59Speaker 1: All right, now that didn't get an applause, and this
- 4:03Speaker 1: didn't get applause.
- 4:03Speaker 2: America is back, and our country is stronger today than
- 4:08Speaker 2: ever before.
- 4:10Speaker 1: Well, you could make that case. A lot of threats
- 4:12Speaker 1: have been eliminated, including Iran right now. I mean, it's
- 4:15Speaker 1: a mess there, but their military is gone, their navy
- 4:19Speaker 1: is gone, everything is gone. Their nuclear capability right now
- 4:23Speaker 1: is gone. And he talked about Greenland and other things.
- 4:26Speaker 2: We will immediately begin the process of developing a large
- 4:29Speaker 2: military presence in the appropriate locations. We'll be building two
- 4:35Speaker 2: very major military bases.
- 4:38Speaker 1: The reason Greenland is Important. Every president, every U.S. president,
- 4:43Speaker 1: going all the way back to Abraham Lincoln, has wanted
- 4:45Speaker 1: to take control of Greenland. It's crucial for our defense, strategically, geographically,
- 4:52Speaker 1: very important for our defense. It's important that we have
- 4:55Speaker 1: total military control of it, that we keep Russia and
- 4:58Speaker 1: China from having any military presence there. Because from Greenland,
- 5:02Speaker 1: you can easily attack the continental United States. A missile
- 5:06Speaker 1: attack also would come over those skies. This is where
- 5:09Speaker 1: we'd want to stop those missiles. So having total control
- 5:13Speaker 1: of Greenland militarily, very important. Every president has tried to
- 5:18Speaker 1: do this. Many presidents offered a ton of money. President
- 5:21Speaker 1: Trump tried that before. But we finally got the agreement.
- 5:24Speaker 1: We have total control of it permanently. That's the agreement.
- 5:28Speaker 1: It was signed yesterday at the UN. Now, here's the
- 5:31Speaker 1: parts that we're getting applause, the Iran parts.
- 5:33Speaker 2: I believe we'll make a deal right after the election.
- 5:37Speaker 2: because it doesn't make sense for them not to. They're
- 5:41Speaker 2: waiting to see how I do in the midterm election. Yeah.
- 5:45Speaker 1: Somebody cut these clips way too tight, but he made
- 5:47Speaker 1: some great points, which got actual applause. This is unheard
- 5:50Speaker 1: of in the UN General Assembly. But he went on
- 5:52Speaker 1: to say, the Iranian thinking is, we'll stall after the midterms.
- 5:58Speaker 1: And then, because he's so concerned about the midterms, but
- 6:01Speaker 1: he pointed out, I'm not on the ballot. I'm not running.
- 6:04Speaker 1: And stop thinking the midterms will have anything to do
- 6:07Speaker 1: with this, because as he pointed out, I'm going to
- 6:09Speaker 1: be here for two and a half more years. And
- 6:12Speaker 1: if he loses the midterms, if he loses them badly,
- 6:16Speaker 1: it's two months before the Democrats take Congress. It'll be
- 6:21Speaker 1: two months before they take control. So in those two months,
- 6:24Speaker 1: he could do anything and everything to Iran. He pointed
- 6:26Speaker 1: that out to them.
- 6:27Speaker 2: I call on all nations to join us in enforcing
- 6:30Speaker 2: the complete economic isolation of Iran and until they stop
- 6:34Speaker 2: their attacks on commercial shipping, relinquish their nuclear ambitions, and
- 6:39Speaker 2: cease their support of terror.
- 6:42Speaker 1: Yeah, now, the clip's edited a little too tight here,
- 6:47Speaker 1: but that got applause, big applause, which is unheard of
- 6:50Speaker 1: in the UN General Assembly. He also talked about AI.
- 6:53Speaker 2: The United States also totally rejects any attempt to construct
- 6:57Speaker 2: a globalist scheme to control for the artificial intelligence being
- 7:02Speaker 2: spoken of so much now, here and after officially called superintelligence,
- 7:09Speaker 2: changing the name, and that the use of the word
- 7:12Speaker 2: artificial makes intelligence fake. It makes it sound fake, and
- 7:16Speaker 2: it is not fake.
- 7:17Speaker 1: Yeah. Now, when it comes to AI and taking total
- 7:21Speaker 1: control of it, the Democrats have been pushing this scheme
- 7:23Speaker 1: that they take total control of it. The problem is
- 7:29Speaker 1: they're talking about slowing it down. Listen, there's some concerns, obviously,
- 7:33Speaker 1: It's not the threat they're making it out to be.
- 7:35Speaker 1: It's not going to kill everybody. But obviously there's concerns.
- 7:38Speaker 1: The president has set up a task force to look
- 7:42Speaker 1: at this. He's appointing an AI czar to keep an
- 7:45Speaker 1: eye on it. But there's a lot of money in
- 7:47Speaker 1: this AI. The AI companies, four companies control all AI.
- 7:51Speaker 1: It's a cartel. They've already put together a super PAC
- 7:54Speaker 1: that has passed out $ 40 million in the last few
- 7:57Speaker 1: weeks to Congress. And taking control of AI really, really
- 8:05Speaker 1: That's something you don't want the government to do. You
- 8:07Speaker 1: want just the normal protections you have, liability laws, safety laws,
- 8:12Speaker 1: all that stuff. We already have these laws. And the
- 8:15Speaker 1: problem is if you believe that AI is so dangerous
- 8:17Speaker 1: it could kill us all, then it's very important that
- 8:21Speaker 1: we don't slow down, that we make sure we win
- 8:24Speaker 1: the AI battle. Because if we slow down, China wins
- 8:26Speaker 1: the battle, takes total control of AI. And if it
- 8:31Speaker 1: can kill us all, we don't want it in the
- 8:32Speaker 1: hands of China or Russia. We want to be the
- 8:35Speaker 1: controller of AI. The UN wants in on this. The
- 8:38Speaker 1: UN wants to take control of AI because there's trillions
- 8:41Speaker 1: of dollars at stake there. And when the UN spells money,
- 8:45Speaker 1: they are all over it. So the UN, they are
- 8:48Speaker 1: speaking about taking control of AI. Listen to this globalist idiot.
- 8:51Speaker 3: Humans are increasingly handing power to machines.
- 8:55Speaker 1: With artificial agents going rogue. Whoa, whoa, whoa. You want
- 8:59Speaker 1: this guy controlling your iPhone? Autonomous weapons going from science
- 9:02Speaker 1: fiction to military reality. It sounds like when you call
- 9:07Speaker 1: tech support, you get this whoever on the phone from
- 9:09Speaker 1: 17 million countries away who can't understand one thing you're saying. Hey,
- 9:14Speaker 1: tomorrow's a big day for you, and this will be
- 9:16Speaker 1: an explosive day. B.B. Netanyahu arrives tonight. Tonight, about 9 o'clock,
- 9:22Speaker 1: he's coming into New York, where I shouldn't say where
- 9:24Speaker 1: he's staying, the Regency, but that'll be like 60th and Park,
- 9:29Speaker 1: 61st and Park. It'll cause a traffic nightmare there. He
- 9:32Speaker 1: doesn't get until tonight. He'll be here tomorrow, speaks tomorrow
- 9:36Speaker 1: at the UN, then he leaves tomorrow night. So he's
- 9:39Speaker 1: only spending one night here. Expect a lot of protests.
- 9:43Speaker 1: Mamdani made those silly threats to arrest him. Mamdani would
- 9:46Speaker 1: have no authority to arrest him. There's nothing to arrest
- 9:50Speaker 1: him on. And Mamdani has admitted he can't do it.
- 9:54Speaker 1: He has no authority to do that. But Bibi Netanyahu
- 9:57Speaker 1: put out a video really challenging Mamdani.
- 9:59Speaker 3: Shame.
- 10:00Speaker 1: On you, Mr. Mamdani.
- 10:01Speaker 4: Shame on you for supporting the Hamas terrorist monsters who
- 10:05Speaker 4: butchered our people. Shame on you for inciting riots against
- 10:09Speaker 4: New York Jews. I'm coming to the UN. I'm going
- 10:12Speaker 4: to tell the truth about our heroic soldiers. And I'm
- 10:15Speaker 4: going to tell the truth about you.
- 10:18Speaker 1: Now, what does that mean? Tell the truth about what
- 10:21Speaker 1: an anti-Semite he's been? Well, we all know that. Does
- 10:26Speaker 1: he have something on Mamdani that we don't know about?
- 10:29Speaker 1: Israeli intelligence is the best in the world. Maybe they've
- 10:31Speaker 1: come up with something. Yes, on October 7th was a holocaust.
- 10:37Speaker 1: A holocaust. Hamas to be totally condemned. Nobody can defend
- 10:42Speaker 1: what happened on October 7th. Nobody. Israel is the victim. They've...
- 10:47Speaker 1: done what they've had to do in response, a counterattack,
- 10:51Speaker 1: not a genocide, a counterattack. But Mamdani responded to Bibi Netanyahu.
- 10:57Speaker 3: When it comes to Benjamin Netanyahu, I have described him
- 11:00Speaker 3: as I believe him to be, a war criminal and
- 11:02Speaker 3: an architect of a horrific genocide.
- 11:04Speaker 1: Of the power. No genocide took place, a counterattack that
- 11:07Speaker 1: any nation would have made.
- 11:08Speaker 3: And I've also been honest with New Yorkers that New
- 11:12Speaker 3: York City does not have the authority to carry out
- 11:15Speaker 3: the ICC's which, as you said, has been issued for
- 11:19Speaker 3: Prime Minister Netanyahu, and that I do believe that that
- 11:22Speaker 3: is something that should be honored.
- 11:25Speaker 1: Yeah, they have no, he's admitting there, they have no
- 11:27Speaker 1: authority to carry out the ICC warrant. That's the International
- 11:31Speaker 1: Criminal Court. Now, the reason they have no authority is
- 11:34Speaker 1: it's not a real court. It's just a silly, ridiculous thing.
- 11:37Speaker 1: A handful of Mamdani's all over the world made up
- 11:40Speaker 1: this whole fake court called the International Criminal Court. Sounds
- 11:44Speaker 1: very impressive. But it's not a real court. It has
- 11:47Speaker 1: absolutely no authority. It's a bunch of left-wing anti-Semites who
- 11:51Speaker 1: run this court. We've been declared war criminals. Everybody they
- 11:56Speaker 1: know likes a war criminal. But it's not a real court.
- 12:00Speaker 1: There's nothing he can do.
- 12:01Speaker 3: We all know that what the prime minister has said
- 12:04Speaker 3: in that video is not true. What we do know
- 12:07Speaker 3: to actually be.
- 12:07Speaker 1: The truth— Whoa, whoa, whoa. What do you mean we
- 12:09Speaker 1: don't know what's— Those Israelis were heroic on October 7th.
- 12:14Speaker 1: great heroes that defended Israel and responded. So, of course,
- 12:18Speaker 1: that's true.
- 12:19Speaker 3: Truth when it comes to the prime minister is that
- 12:21Speaker 3: he is the subject of an international criminal court arrest warrant.
- 12:25Speaker 1: No, it's not. It's not an actual court. No actual
- 12:27Speaker 1: court has an arrest warrant out for him. It's just
- 12:30Speaker 1: this fake court, a bunch of left-wing kooks. Anti-Semite professors
- 12:35Speaker 1: created this left-wing court.
- 12:36Speaker 3: Alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity. And as the
- 12:40Speaker 3: prime minister, he is the architect of a horrific genocide
- 12:43Speaker 3: against Palestinians.
- 12:47Speaker 1: And that's what they do. There was a genocide against Israel.
- 12:51Speaker 1: There was a Holocaust launched on October 7th. And it
- 12:55Speaker 1: just was the most brutal thing ever with the raping
- 12:58Speaker 1: of women, the killing of babies. It was just horrific.
- 13:01Speaker 1: Israel's response, perfectly appropriate. A counterattack that you had to expect.
- 13:08Speaker 1: But Mamdani, with his fake court, you know, we should
- 13:12Speaker 1: make up our own court. You can do that. That's
- 13:14Speaker 1: what they did. The International Criminal Court. They just made
- 13:17Speaker 1: it up. So we should create the global criminal court.
- 13:22Speaker 1: And you could indict Mamdani. The warrant doesn't mean anything. But, hey,
- 13:25Speaker 1: the other big thing today, President Xi of China coming
- 13:29Speaker 1: to America. He will arrive in Washington, D.C., actually at
- 13:33Speaker 1: Joint Base Andrews about 4 o'clock. When you have a
- 13:37Speaker 1: world leader come, they're brought to the White House. It's
- 13:42Speaker 1: Ambassador Monica Crowley, our friend who's usually there, on the
- 13:46Speaker 1: steps to greet them, bring them into that palm court,
- 13:49Speaker 1: and then into the White House, and then to see
- 13:50Speaker 1: the president. If you really, really, really, really want to
- 13:55Speaker 1: go out of your way to be respectful to a leader—
- 13:59Speaker 1: The president actually will come to the airport and be
- 14:04Speaker 1: there at the bottom of the steps as you get
- 14:06Speaker 1: off the plane. That's the ultimate show of respect. So
- 14:10Speaker 1: President Trump will do that today at 4 o'clock. He
- 14:12Speaker 1: will leave the White House, go to Andrews, and be
- 14:16Speaker 1: waiting there to greet the president as he comes down
- 14:18Speaker 1: the steps. And then they will ride together back to
- 14:22Speaker 1: the White House in the presidential limousine. He'll give them
- 14:26Speaker 1: time to talk totally alone in the back of the
- 14:28Speaker 1: car there. Again, some wonder why show that much respect
- 14:33Speaker 1: to China. Well, they're trying to get stuff done with China.
- 14:36Speaker 1: They're trying to get agreements done. So real, real show
- 14:39Speaker 1: of respect by meeting him at the plane and bringing
- 14:43Speaker 1: him back personally to the White House. And then tonight,
- 14:45Speaker 1: they're going to have a dinner at the White House.
- 14:47Speaker 1: And they've invited all the tech guys, you know, the
- 14:52Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerbergs and those types. They'll all be there. Obviously,
- 14:55Speaker 1: they need to to get a lot done with China.
- 14:58Speaker 1: They have huge business interests in China. It's crucial to
- 15:01Speaker 1: their tech businesses, so they'll all be together tonight. And
- 15:08Speaker 1: it's a big occasion. Zuckerberg actually puts on a suit
- 15:11Speaker 1: and a tie. He has to probably go rent a
- 15:14Speaker 1: tie from somewhere. But it's a big, big deal tonight.
- 15:17Speaker 1: So watch for that. We'll see what happens. Yesterday at
- 15:21Speaker 1: the U.N., after the U.N. General Assembly, They have all
- 15:26Speaker 1: these sideline meetings. There was one between us and Iran.
- 15:31Speaker 1: And apparently, it was supposed to be an hour. Apparently,
- 15:33Speaker 1: it went three hours. And the word is they made
- 15:36Speaker 1: some kind of progress there. Not only was it three hours,
- 15:39Speaker 1: but Jared Kushner, Steve Witkoff stayed after the meeting was
- 15:43Speaker 1: officially over and kept talking to the Iranians. So that's
- 15:46Speaker 1: a good sign. The bad news is whenever you make
- 15:49Speaker 1: an agreement with Iran, they never stick to anything in it.
- 15:52Speaker 1: So I don't know what it really means. The president
- 15:55Speaker 1: met with Zelensky of Ukraine. And both sides indicating a
- 15:59Speaker 1: lot of progress was made. A lot of progress was made.
- 16:02Speaker 1: There could be some kind of settlement coming. You never know.
- 16:07Speaker 1: It's closer than ever because of that meeting. I think
- 16:09Speaker 1: they're going to make a deal. And I don't want
- 16:11Speaker 1: to say what the deal is.
- 16:12Speaker 2: We talk about it a lot, including with President Putin.
- 16:16Speaker 4: And I think something's going to happen.
- 16:17Speaker 3: All right.
- 16:18Speaker 1: But you've heard that before.
- 16:20Speaker 2: But.
- 16:21Speaker 1: But it looked pretty good. Anyway, we've got a lot
- 16:23Speaker 1: more to get to. We'll get to Bruce Blakeman. We'll
- 16:26Speaker 1: get to Crazy Kathy Hochul. We'll get to the media
- 16:30Speaker 1: being banned from the White House. Although they still seem
- 16:33Speaker 1: to show up all the time. But we'll get to
- 16:34Speaker 1: all of that coming up. Mark Simone here. 9 to noon.
- 16:38Speaker 1: Three hours every day. 9 to noon now. On 710WOR.
- 16:44Speaker 1: The Mark Simone Show. Now 9 till noon weekdays.
- 16:48Speaker 3: On 710WOR.
- 16:52Speaker 1: Well, hey, you know, Sean Hannity, besides doing the radio
- 16:56Speaker 1: show here every day, 3 to 6, has this great podcast.
- 16:59Speaker 1: It's called Hanging Out. And this week's guest was Caroline Leavitt,
- 17:04Speaker 1: the press secretary, who left, who retired. She just had,
- 17:09Speaker 1: she has one child. She just had another child. Very, very,
- 17:12Speaker 1: very young. And she wanted to be home. She wanted to,
- 17:15Speaker 1: you know, I can understand that. You got two very
- 17:18Speaker 1: young kids. And she wants to be there to raise them.
- 17:21Speaker 1: So she stepped down. Now, at some point, she will
- 17:23Speaker 1: go back to work. She's still an advisor to the president.
- 17:26Speaker 1: But she's the guest on this podcast this week. It's
- 17:29Speaker 1: pretty interesting because normally when the press secretary steps down,
- 17:32Speaker 1: you've got to appoint somebody else. You have to have
- 17:34Speaker 1: a press secretary. It's been weeks and weeks and weeks
- 17:37Speaker 1: and weeks and weeks and weeks. No successor yet. I mean,
- 17:41Speaker 1: they've had people fill in when they need to do
- 17:42Speaker 1: a press conference. But how do you go without a
- 17:45Speaker 1: press conference? Well, she explained that to Sean Hannity, that
- 17:49Speaker 1: With him, you don't actually need a press secretary. Everybody
- 17:52Speaker 1: in the press, everybody in the media has his phone number. Everybody.
- 17:57Speaker 1: And you can call him and he'll take the call
- 17:59Speaker 1: anytime you want. She explained this. to Sean.
- 18:01Speaker 5: He treats everyone with kindness when he's one-on-one. And people
- 18:05Speaker 5: don't know that unless they meet him. And I know,
- 18:08Speaker 5: not just press, they won't say it on the record,
- 18:10Speaker 5: but off the record they do say how warm he is,
- 18:12Speaker 5: how great he is. He answers their calls. I mean, heck,
- 18:15Speaker 5: he doesn't even need a press secretary because he just
- 18:17Speaker 5: picks up the phone to reporters and chit-chats with them.
- 18:21Speaker 5: And they appreciate that.
- 18:23Speaker 1: Does everybody in the media have his phone number? Literally everybody. Everybody.
- 18:27Speaker 3: Everybody.
- 18:27Speaker 1: How do they get it? They share it with each other? Yeah,
- 18:29Speaker 1: they do.
- 18:31Speaker 5: Horse trade it with one another. Horse trade it.
- 18:34Speaker 1: President of the United States cell phone number.
- 18:37Speaker 5: I would be lying if I didn't say, I got it.
- 18:41Speaker 5: I would say, yeah, it's not sacred. You and like
- 18:44Speaker 5: everyone else in the media. There were times when I
- 18:46Speaker 5: told the president this at the time it was happening.
- 18:48Speaker 5: I was like, sir, this is getting a little crazy. Like,
- 18:51Speaker 5: you have, like, bloggers from French 24 news site calling you? Like,
- 18:58Speaker 5: this is getting out of control. He's like, well, I
- 18:59Speaker 5: don't know how they get my number.
- 19:00Speaker 3: I just pick up.
- 19:01Speaker 5: And he does. They'll call it.
- 19:02Speaker 1: And he's just, hello.
- 19:03Speaker 5: You know, and he shoots the breeze with.
- 19:06Speaker 1: Yeah, we've never had a president like that. Everybody in
- 19:09Speaker 1: the media has his number. Everybody texts back and forth
- 19:12Speaker 1: that they can call him. So it's interesting. That's why
- 19:14Speaker 1: there was no rush to get a new press secretary.
- 19:17Speaker 1: You really don't need one. So Mamdani and Trump have
- 19:21Speaker 1: that meeting yesterday, the day before. And it bothered a
- 19:25Speaker 1: lot of people that Trump would meet with Mamdani. And
- 19:29Speaker 1: it bothered a lot of Mamdani people that he would
- 19:31Speaker 1: meet with Trump. If you go back and watch the video,
- 19:33Speaker 1: you'll notice Mamdani, he's always smiling. He's always got that
- 19:36Speaker 1: big grin on his face. With Trump, he didn't smile.
- 19:40Speaker 1: I think that was deliberate. He's sending a signal. To
- 19:44Speaker 1: his base, like, I don't really like this guy. So
- 19:46Speaker 1: he's always into sending signals. You know, he meets with
- 19:49Speaker 1: the president. Looks like they've made some sort of agreement
- 19:54Speaker 1: with each other to behave. And then the next day
- 19:58Speaker 1: he calls for Netanyahu to be arrested again. But that's
- 20:00Speaker 1: his pattern. He'll do something that looks like he's done
- 20:03Speaker 1: the right thing, but then he'll do something to signal
- 20:06Speaker 1: he doesn't really mean it. You remember when he signed
- 20:08Speaker 1: that bill to fight terrorism? Well, that was good. But
- 20:12Speaker 1: then he handed the pen he signed it with to
- 20:14Speaker 1: the lawyer for the terrorists. He always does something to
- 20:16Speaker 1: signal that he's not really sincere about this. So there
- 20:20Speaker 1: was lip readers, though, that were watching them before they
- 20:23Speaker 1: came to the microphones. You could see them over there talking.
- 20:26Speaker 1: And lip readers said that they did pick up one
- 20:31Speaker 1: interesting thing. Trump says to him, listen, I'll look after you.
- 20:37Speaker 1: But as they say, you're doing great. I'll look after you.
- 20:40Speaker 1: But you look after the New Yorkers. And then we
- 20:43Speaker 1: can both make it work. I want to support you.
- 20:47Speaker 1: Help me. Come with me to the White House. See
- 20:48Speaker 1: how I work. Well, that's an interesting message. We want
- 20:51Speaker 1: you to take care of New Yorkers. Now, of course,
- 20:55Speaker 1: it's Mamdani. Nothing sinks in with him. He has come
- 20:59Speaker 1: to the White House. And watch, he'll come again. You know,
- 21:01Speaker 1: they talk on the phone every now and then. Every
- 21:03Speaker 1: few weeks, Mamdani and Trump talk on the phone. But
- 21:06Speaker 1: what does Mamdani want with Trump? He supposedly hates him.
- 21:09Speaker 1: I think he wants to learn something from him. You know,
- 21:12Speaker 1: Trump said, Mamdani kind of has to admire Trump. Trump,
- 21:17Speaker 1: a private citizen, no experience in politics. We've seen private
- 21:22Speaker 1: citizens try to run for mayor. We've seen a private
- 21:25Speaker 1: citizen try to run for senator, and sometimes they're successful.
- 21:28Speaker 1: But this is the first and most miraculous case in
- 21:31Speaker 1: history where a private citizen, first time he tries politics,
- 21:35Speaker 1: is elected president of the United States. And Mamdani, it's
- 21:38Speaker 1: kind of similar. We've never seen this before. Private citizen
- 21:42Speaker 1: and a guy who's never had a job, no resume,
- 21:45Speaker 1: never had a job, gets himself elected mayor of New York.
- 21:49Speaker 1: So when it comes to that sort of skill, Trump
- 21:51Speaker 1: is the king, but Mamdani is like in second place.
- 21:55Speaker 1: So I think maybe that's why he spends time with Trump,
- 21:57Speaker 1: hopes to learn something from him on that. Hey, when
- 22:01Speaker 1: it comes to Bruce Blakeman and Kathy Hochul, you know,
- 22:05Speaker 1: in the real polls, the deadly accurate internal polls. It's
- 22:10Speaker 1: pretty much tied. Now, this is interesting. Even in the
- 22:13Speaker 1: fake polls, those college polls, those media polls, those public
- 22:18Speaker 1: polls that are always rigged, always fake, they play around
- 22:20Speaker 1: with the metrics. Even in the fake polls, Blakeman now
- 22:25Speaker 1: within single digits. That's from 20, 25 points behind. He's
- 22:29Speaker 1: now in single digits. So even the fake polls And
- 22:33Speaker 1: you can always, whatever Blakeman gets in the fake polls,
- 22:35Speaker 1: you can always add 7% because that's how much they
- 22:38Speaker 1: rig them. So Blakeman doing very well. Now, Hochul has
- 22:41Speaker 1: agreed to one debate. This is unheard of. When it
- 22:45Speaker 1: comes to a governor's race, there's always two or three debates.
- 22:48Speaker 1: She will only agree to one debate. She's turning down
- 22:51Speaker 1: all the major debates, Channel 2, Channel 4, Channel 7,
- 22:55Speaker 1: Channel 5. They've all offered debates, and she's refused them.
- 22:58Speaker 1: Blakeman has accepted every one of them. The only one
- 23:02Speaker 1: Hochul accepted is the tiny little New York One with
- 23:06Speaker 1: very few viewers. And the reason she's accepted that, it's
- 23:09Speaker 1: an extremely biased station, very left-wing, very biased. The debate
- 23:15Speaker 1: will be hosted by Errol Lewis, who's a great, nice guy,
- 23:18Speaker 1: really nice guy, but as far to the left as
- 23:22Speaker 1: the salad fork. I mean, you can't get more left-wing
- 23:24Speaker 1: biased than Errol Lewis, so she's agreed to that. She's
- 23:28Speaker 1: still now. Hopefully she gets pressured into agreeing to another debate.
- 23:31Speaker 1: There's got to be a second debate. And she's got
- 23:34Speaker 1: to do a debate on a major channel. Nobody sees
- 23:38Speaker 1: New York One. Most people don't even have New York One.
- 23:41Speaker 1: So you got to keep the pressure up on her.
- 23:45Speaker 1: But Blakeman catching up in the polls and he'll probably
- 23:49Speaker 1: do very well in that debate. I think if she
- 23:52Speaker 1: gets wiped out in that debate, that's the only reason
- 23:54Speaker 1: she might agree to a second debate. Just to try
- 23:57Speaker 1: to recover. Anyway, we've got a lot to get to.
- 24:00Speaker 1: We'll take some calls too. 800-321-0710. Mark Simone here. Three
- 24:06Speaker 1: hours every day. Three hours every day. Nine to noon
- 24:11Speaker 1: on 710WOR. Hey, let's get all the latest news right now.
- 24:14Speaker 1: Here's Daria Albinger.
- 24:15Speaker 3: Good morning, Mark.
- 24:16Speaker 1: May I say you look really sharp today. Well, I
- 24:19Speaker 1: didn't yesterday. What about every other day? Well, you always look.
- 24:22Speaker 1: But today you gilded the lily, I have to tell you. Oh, well,
- 24:24Speaker 1: I've got to go make a speech. Got the tie
- 24:26Speaker 1: on and everything? I've got to go make a speech
- 24:28Speaker 1: at 12.30. I have to introduce the police commissioner. And
- 24:32Speaker 1: we're having her as the speaker. With the U.N. traffic,
- 24:35Speaker 1: she's the only one that can get there. Well, you
- 24:38Speaker 1: will represent us very well. Welcome back to the Mark
- 24:42Speaker 1: Simone Show.
- 24:43Speaker 3: Live from the WOR LifeVac studios.
- 24:48Speaker 1: Well, so what's the deal? I said we'll take some calls,
- 24:53Speaker 1: but apparently the phones don't work right now. Still not working.
- 24:56Speaker 1: They'll let us know when they work. The phones do
- 24:58Speaker 1: not work. Now, you should see this place. I heart
- 25:04Speaker 1: New York. You should see what this looks like. This
- 25:06Speaker 1: floor is the sixth floor. It's where all the local
- 25:08Speaker 1: stations are. It's us. It's Charlemagne, the God in the
- 25:11Speaker 1: next studio. Elvis Duran, Z100 down the hall. Jim Kerr,
- 25:15Speaker 1: Q104 is over there down the hall. You got Light FM.
- 25:18Speaker 1: You got KTU. You got the most sophisticated. If you
- 25:21Speaker 1: walked in here, you'd be stunned. It looks like Apple headquarters.
- 25:26Speaker 1: It is the most impressive, massive, state-of-the-art, unbelievable audio facility
- 25:32Speaker 1: ever built in the history of the world. Your mouth
- 25:34Speaker 1: would drop open if you came in here. But we
- 25:38Speaker 1: can't get the phone to work. The phone's nowhere. Now,
- 25:44Speaker 1: the reason for that is it's not a regular phone.
- 25:46Speaker 1: See all these phones here? We got like 10 lines.
- 25:49Speaker 1: It's all digital, and the phones go through an Amazon cloud,
- 25:54Speaker 1: and they don't work. They don't work. Now, luckily, we
- 25:59Speaker 1: have all of our engineers. We had a ton of
- 26:01Speaker 1: engineers here and engineering staff in there. I quickly tried
- 26:05Speaker 1: to fix it, quickly trying to restore the phones. So far,
- 26:09Speaker 1: it's been two hours. Yeah. And they say within an hour,
- 26:13Speaker 1: they'll get it fixed. So maybe next hour we can
- 26:15Speaker 1: take some calls. So we can't take any calls. You
- 26:18Speaker 1: can call, but we can't answer. That means I got
- 26:22Speaker 1: to talk more. Oh, well. You remember asbestos was like
- 26:27Speaker 1: a real problem. Oh, if you had asbestos in you,
- 26:29Speaker 1: you had to remove that asbestos. That asbestos could do
- 26:31Speaker 1: all kinds of damage to your brain, your lung, everything.
- 26:34Speaker 1: So a neuroscientist now warning there's something else in your house.
- 26:40Speaker 1: that may be a public health emergency on the same
- 26:43Speaker 1: level as asbestos. Now, remember, let me just point out,
- 26:47Speaker 1: every time you pick up the news, there's, oh, there's
- 26:49Speaker 1: a study, coffee will kill you. Then a week later, there's, oh,
- 26:53Speaker 1: here's a study, the best thing for your health is coffee. Nothing,
- 26:56Speaker 1: so these studies very often contradict each other. So let's
- 26:59Speaker 1: not panic, but this guy is a professor of neuroscience.
- 27:05Speaker 1: So whenever you hear the word professor, just hit delete, professor.
- 27:10Speaker 1: a professor of neuroscience at University College London. A London professor. Okay,
- 27:15Speaker 1: but he's sounding the alarm. He said it's a clear
- 27:18Speaker 1: and present public health emergency. And what he's talking about,
- 27:22Speaker 1: LED bulbs. And they're in every home now, LED bulbs.
- 27:26Speaker 1: And if you're walking around in schools or offices or hospitals,
- 27:31Speaker 1: nothing but LED all over the place. But he also says, yeah, schools, offices,
- 27:36Speaker 1: look out in the hall. Those are all LEDs. Hey,
- 27:39Speaker 1: look above me. That's an LED. The whole ceiling here
- 27:42Speaker 1: is LEDs. What am I saying? And he said half
- 27:47Speaker 1: of U.S. households now have LED bulbs. The old incandescent
- 27:50Speaker 1: bulbs are no longer made. But he claims it could
- 27:54Speaker 1: raise the risk of diabetes and other metabolic disorders. And
- 27:58Speaker 1: I don't know. Again, it's a professor. You can't take
- 28:01Speaker 1: these professors seriously about anything. AOC, everybody thinks will challenge
- 28:07Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer. in September, not September, but in two years,
- 28:12Speaker 1: and just wipe him out. Schumer has indicated privately he
- 28:17Speaker 1: will not run. If he's facing any kind of challenge,
- 28:21Speaker 1: primary challenge, he will not run. And I'd say right
- 28:23Speaker 1: now it's 95% that Schumer will retire at the end
- 28:28Speaker 1: of this term. And that is the best thing for us.
- 28:33Speaker 1: It is the best thing for the Democrats. It's the
- 28:35Speaker 1: best thing for New York. He is and has been
- 28:38Speaker 1: the single most useless senator we have ever had. For
- 28:43Speaker 1: all his huffing and puffing and his little Ben Franklin
- 28:46Speaker 1: glasses and his fake Sunday press conferences, he has never
- 28:50Speaker 1: been there when you need him. Schumer is one of
- 28:52Speaker 1: those guys who's never there when you need him, and
- 28:56Speaker 1: he's always there when you don't need him. And when
- 29:00Speaker 1: we really need him, remember the pandemic, the lockdown in
- 29:03Speaker 1: New York? He vanished for the whole couple months. He
- 29:06Speaker 1: just vanished. He left town and vanished. You remember the
- 29:10Speaker 1: riots on campus, Columbia and other places, the horrible, horrible
- 29:14Speaker 1: anti-Semitic riots? Schumer vanished. He's the leading Democrat. He's the
- 29:20Speaker 1: leading public official in New York. Those riots all over
- 29:23Speaker 1: our campuses, anti-Semitic riots all over our city. And he's
- 29:26Speaker 1: Jewish too, most powerful Jewish leader in government. And he vanished.
- 29:30Speaker 1: He was nowhere to be found, nowhere to be found.
- 29:34Speaker 1: Even now with Mamdani and the anti-Semitism and the anti-Israel
- 29:38Speaker 1: stuff coming out of him. he's nowhere to be found.
- 29:41Speaker 1: You remember when our synagogues were being attacked and harassed?
- 29:44Speaker 1: People going to synagogue were being attacked by people, terrorizing,
- 29:48Speaker 1: going on from protesters. Schumer was nowhere to be found.
- 29:52Speaker 1: So very important that we get rid of this guy
- 29:55Speaker 1: and that he retire. But AOC... First, all this talk
- 29:59Speaker 1: of her running for that Senate seat, moving up from
- 30:02Speaker 1: the House to the Senate. But now more and more
- 30:04Speaker 1: talk of her being the 2028 candidate. And in all
- 30:07Speaker 1: the polling, she's at number one or two. It's her
- 30:11Speaker 1: and Pete Buttigieg at the top for 2028. Now, a
- 30:17Speaker 1: lot of people are worried about Kamala Harris and Newsom,
- 30:20Speaker 1: who's no longer a frontrunner. But Newsom has said if
- 30:22Speaker 1: Kamala Harris enters the race, he will drop out immediately,
- 30:25Speaker 1: will not try to challenge her. This is interesting. AOC said,
- 30:31Speaker 1: what if Kamala Harris enters the race? She said, I
- 30:35Speaker 1: don't care. I'll run against her. She's not afraid of
- 30:37Speaker 1: Kamala Harris. She says, my decisions don't come down to deference.
- 30:44Speaker 1: She's not afraid of Kamala Harris. That's interesting. She said
- 30:50Speaker 1: she'll run. She says if she loses in 2028, her
- 30:55Speaker 1: time in public office will be over. It's all or
- 30:59Speaker 1: nothing for her. That's interesting. Now, she probably has a
- 31:02Speaker 1: heck of a future and a ton of money to
- 31:03Speaker 1: be made if she leaves politics. She'll be on The
- 31:06Speaker 1: View or she'll be on MSNBC, a host or something.
- 31:11Speaker 1: She'll get a big media job. You know, good talker.
- 31:14Speaker 1: Doesn't make any sense. Nothing she's saying is right. But
- 31:17Speaker 1: a good talker. Looks good. A lot of TV jobs
- 31:20Speaker 1: awaiting her. But pretty interesting. She's not afraid of Kamala Harris. Now,
- 31:24Speaker 1: I think that would be great if she runs in
- 31:26Speaker 1: a primary against Kamala Harris. Can you imagine that debate?
- 31:30Speaker 1: The two most imbecilic nitwits trying to debate each other.
- 31:34Speaker 1: Can you imagine that debate? AOC debating Kamala Harris. Nobody
- 31:38Speaker 1: would win that debate. Just two babbling yo-yos trying to debate. Well,
- 31:44Speaker 1: we'll see if it happens. Hey, it's the first official
- 31:47Speaker 1: day of autumn. It began last night at 8 o'clock.
- 31:51Speaker 1: It's now autumn, officially autumn. Remember the words of the
- 31:55Speaker 1: great Gatsby. The great Gatsby said life starts all over
- 32:00Speaker 1: again when it gets crisp in the fall. So it's
- 32:03Speaker 1: a good season. Hey, a lot of people on the left,
- 32:07Speaker 1: a lot of these Democrats hate 60 Minutes. They hate
- 32:10Speaker 1: Barry Weiss. They hate what's being done at CBS. You know,
- 32:13Speaker 1: they hired this Barry Weiss to take over CBS News.
- 32:16Speaker 1: They keep forgetting Barry Weiss is a Democrat. She's a
- 32:19Speaker 1: left winger. She's from the New York Times. She's not
- 32:22Speaker 1: a Republican or anything, but she's made some changes. She's
- 32:25Speaker 1: trying to get 60 Minutes back to what it was
- 32:27Speaker 1: where they do investigative pieces, you know, where they interview
- 32:31Speaker 1: big newsmakers like the Clancy husband or something like that.
- 32:35Speaker 1: So ratings were down this year, season premiere over last year,
- 32:38Speaker 1: but that's every year. They're down every year. Less and
- 32:41Speaker 1: less people watch TV. And the second week they were down.
- 32:45Speaker 1: So they're all jumping on this. They're all shredding. Look
- 32:47Speaker 1: at this. It's down. She's a disaster. The reason they
- 32:50Speaker 1: were down this week is they didn't have the NFL
- 32:52Speaker 1: lead in. 60 minutes ratings are strictly determined by the
- 32:56Speaker 1: NFL game on before it. It's a big, important super game.
- 33:00Speaker 1: 60 minutes gets amazing ratings. If it's a so-so game,
- 33:03Speaker 1: they still get pretty good. As long as the NFL
- 33:05Speaker 1: is on, there was no NFL lead in to 60
- 33:08Speaker 1: minutes this week. That's why they're down a little. So
- 33:11Speaker 1: all these mediaites and Daily Beast and all these left-wing
- 33:15Speaker 1: sites going at it. It shows she's a disaster. It
- 33:18Speaker 1: doesn't show anything at all yet. Anyway, we've got a
- 33:21Speaker 1: lot to get to. We'll see if we can get
- 33:22Speaker 1: the phones fixed. We'll work on that. We've got two
- 33:26Speaker 1: more hours to go. And then at noon, you've got
- 33:28Speaker 1: Buck Sexton and Clay Travis. Boy, what a great show
- 33:31Speaker 1: every day at noon. You've got Sean Hannity and the
- 33:33Speaker 1: single most listened to radio show in America at 3 o'clock.
- 33:37Speaker 1: You've got Jesse Kelly at 6. You've got the very
- 33:40Speaker 1: funny Jimmy Fela. 9 o'clock every night here on 710WOR.
- 33:45Speaker 1: Now 9 till noon weekday.
- 33:47Speaker 3: Smart Simone.
- 33:49Speaker 1: Only on 710WOR. That's right. Three hours every day, nine
- 33:55Speaker 1: to noon. I'm on nine to noon, three hours every day. Uh,
- 33:59Speaker 1: it's the first full day of autumn. It's going to
- 34:01Speaker 1: be in the sixties for the rest of the week.
- 34:04Speaker 1: Gets back to 70 on Monday and that, uh, storm
- 34:08Speaker 1: with all the rain, that, uh, rain and wind that
- 34:10Speaker 1: should be a late Friday, most of Saturday and, and
- 34:15Speaker 1: Sunday morning. So it's mostly Saturday, uh, gets wiped out. It'll, uh,
- 34:19Speaker 1: East of the city gets the worst part of the storm.
- 34:21Speaker 1: East of the city is going to get the most
- 34:23Speaker 1: of it. Hey, we got two more hours to go
- 34:25Speaker 1: and a lot to get to. Mark Simone here. Nine
- 34:28Speaker 1: to noon every day on 710WOR.
