- 1:57Speaker 6: famous people to their wedding.

- 2:22Speaker 6: five like security at the Garden this weekend. I'm Ashley
- 2:26Speaker 6: Japaro for NBC New York.
- 2:28Speaker 8: Mister mayor, why did you shrink the uniformed headcount for NYPD?
- 2:34Speaker 9: Mister mayor?
- 2:35Speaker 1: Why are there.
- 2:36Speaker 12: Going to be less police officers?
- 2:38Speaker 1: Do you think New Yorkers will still be safe? Our
- 2:40Speaker 1: great city councilman out of Staten Island, Frank Morano.
- 2:44Speaker 13: The mayor's behavior, forget about spending more money than most
- 2:47Speaker 13: countries spend. The mayor's behavior, and just in terms of
- 2:51Speaker 13: being an honest broker, it's.
- 2:52Speaker 14: A vohominable if you have spending.
- 2:54Speaker 13: One hundred and twenty six billion dollars and still can't
- 2:57Speaker 13: find room for more cops, more fit fire for I
- 3:00Speaker 13: think your priorities are are way out of order. This
- 3:04Speaker 13: budget spends like there's no tomorrow, and unfortunately the taxpayers
- 3:08Speaker 13: still have to live in tomorrow. And when didn't to
- 3:10Speaker 13: pay the bill for a lot of this nonsense next year?
- 3:12Speaker 13: In the year after that, the city is spending like
- 3:15Speaker 13: it won the lottery and the budget got bigger, but
- 3:19Speaker 13: we didn't get any safer. I mean, think how much
- 3:23Speaker 13: larger this budget has been just last year ten billion dollars?
- 3:26Speaker 13: Did we get ten billion dollars more worth of services
- 3:30Speaker 13: of publication coorse not? I mean, at what point do
- 3:33Speaker 13: we take a breath and say we can't just keep
- 3:36Speaker 13: spending endlessly?
- 3:38Speaker 15: President Trump, responding the new ethics questions on two fronts,
- 3:41Speaker 15: the use of a luxury Boeing JED gifted by the
- 3:44Speaker 15: Qatari government as a temporary air Force one, as well
- 3:47Speaker 15: as his newly disclosed billion dollar crypto fortune Seef. White
- 3:51Speaker 15: House correspondent Nancy Cortis is traveling with the President.
- 3:54Speaker 1: It was a ride.
- 3:55Speaker 9: President Trump had been anticipating for months his first flight
- 3:59Speaker 9: aboard this life Luxury seven forty seven that replaces the
- 4:02Speaker 9: old Air Force one.
- 4:04Speaker 12: Because very little relative to what it would cost if
- 4:07Speaker 12: we did it in a different way.
- 4:09Speaker 9: The jet may have been a gift from the government
- 4:11Speaker 9: of Cutter, but retrofitting it cost the Pentagon and US
- 4:15Speaker 9: taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars, and it won't even
- 4:19Speaker 9: be in service for very long.
- 4:21Speaker 1: He said, I'd like to use it for a period
- 4:24Speaker 1: of time because the other ones, as you know, are
- 4:26Speaker 1: under construction.
- 4:27Speaker 11: They'll be here in two years.
- 4:29Speaker 9: Trump traveled here to North Dakota to tour the new
- 4:32Speaker 9: Teddy Roosevelt Presidential Library, which opens on July fourth. He
- 4:37Speaker 9: was trailed here by questions about his new nine hundred
- 4:40Speaker 9: and twenty seven page financial disclosure, which reveals he made
- 4:44Speaker 9: at least two point two billion dollars in twenty twenty five,
- 4:49Speaker 9: nearly four times the earnings he claimed in twenty twenty
- 4:52Speaker 9: four before he returned to the White House.
- 4:55Speaker 12: You know, I have profity because the sock market's going
- 4:57Speaker 12: off everybody's property.
- 4:58Speaker 9: That was not the case in the crypto market, where
- 5:01Speaker 9: Trump and his family made more than one point four
- 5:04Speaker 9: billion dollars last year, even as investors lost hundreds of
- 5:08Speaker 9: millions after the value of Trump mean coins and tokens plunged.
- 5:13Speaker 9: Democrats were quick to flag massive foreign investments in Trump ventures.
- 5:18Speaker 16: That is corruption, plain and simple.
- 5:21Speaker 10: While costs are going up for you, Donald Trump is
- 5:24Speaker 10: cashing in.
- 5:24Speaker 17: The documents show that an investment firm tied to the
- 5:27Speaker 17: United Arab Emirates purchased half of the Trump family's crypto
- 5:32Speaker 17: company for half a billion dollars just before Trump took
- 5:35Speaker 17: office last year. Trump would go on to visit the
- 5:39Speaker 17: United Arab Emirates during his first foreign swing of his
- 5:42Speaker 17: second term. Just a few months later.
- 5:44Speaker 18: Pretty interesting move by the Celtics. The Celtics needed center help.
- 5:48Speaker 18: You know, they've been thin at the frontline position since
- 5:50Speaker 18: they had to lose Al Horford, and they traded away
- 5:52Speaker 18: Chris Aps Forzingis last year. And they've signaled that they
- 5:55Speaker 18: want Nimi Cata, their terrific pickup from a couple of
- 5:58Speaker 18: years ago at low money, to be their future center.
- 6:02Speaker 18: And so they bring in Mitchell Robinson. I think here
- 6:05Speaker 18: is a as a backup and this is a this
- 6:07Speaker 18: is a quality signing for a backup position. Here, this
- 6:11Speaker 18: is the mid level contr mid level salary. It's you know,
- 6:14Speaker 18: about what he was making last year, give or take
- 6:17Speaker 18: a little bit of money. And he's obviously proven that
- 6:19Speaker 18: he can be very impactful. The Celtics have immense respect
- 6:23Speaker 18: for him because last year when they played in the playoffs,
- 6:26Speaker 18: Joe Missoula's central game plan was to foul the heck
- 6:28Speaker 18: out of him to get him off the court. They
- 6:31Speaker 18: believe that Mitchell Robinson is a very important player, so
- 6:34Speaker 18: they're backing it up here with you know, with this
- 6:38Speaker 18: move now they have in the past guys they have
- 6:41Speaker 18: wanted to have at least one center who can stretch
- 6:44Speaker 18: the floor. That's why they went out and got Porzingis,
- 6:46Speaker 18: That's why they kept Horford, That's why they went out
- 6:48Speaker 18: and traded for Nikolavusovich last year. Vusovich actually signed with
- 6:52Speaker 18: the Magic this morning, so this will be two centers.
- 6:55Speaker 18: Kada didn't make a three pointer last year, and you're
- 6:58Speaker 18: certainly not having Mitch Robinson take a shot for more
- 7:00Speaker 18: than three or four feet from the basket. So this
- 7:02Speaker 18: is leaning into pretty much always having a non shooter
- 7:05Speaker 18: on the court. But beyond that, it is a you know, look,
- 7:09Speaker 18: a lot has been said about analytics and the Boston
- 7:12Speaker 18: Celtics in recent days. The analytics of the Boston Celtics
- 7:16Speaker 18: department believes that Mitchell Robinson is an analytical star because
- 7:21Speaker 18: they made it a central part of their game plan
- 7:22Speaker 18: to get him off the court. So I'm sure they're
- 7:25Speaker 18: pretty pleased with this move, not only getting him but
- 7:27Speaker 18: also taking him away from the Knicks who followed Jim
- 7:30Speaker 18: Dolan's words and do not go into the second apron.
- 7:33Speaker 18: They right now only have about eight million dollars they
- 7:35Speaker 18: could have offered him. This is not quite double that,
- 7:38Speaker 18: but pretty close, and so they This is what happened.
- 7:41Speaker 18: You win a championship and you draw a line you're spending.
- 7:43Speaker 18: Sometimes you lose role players.
- 7:45Speaker 2: Good morning, Good morning.
- 7:52Speaker 12: In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join
- 7:56Speaker 12: others from around the world, and you will be launching
- 8:01Speaker 12: the largest aial battle in the history of mankind. Mankind
- 8:09Speaker 12: words should have new meaning for all of us today.
- 8:14Speaker 12: We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We
- 8:19Speaker 12: will be united in our common interests, perhaps fate. Today
- 8:25Speaker 12: is the fourth of July, and you will once again
- 8:29Speaker 12: be fighting for our freedom, not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution,
- 8:38Speaker 12: but from annihilation.
- 8:41Speaker 7: We're fighting for our right.
- 8:43Speaker 12: To live, to exist, and should we win, the day,
- 8:51Speaker 12: the fourth of July will no longer be known as
- 8:53Speaker 12: an American holiday, but as the day when the world
- 8:58Speaker 12: declared in one voice.
- 8:59Speaker 1: We will not go quietly into the night.
- 9:03Speaker 12: We will not vanish without a fight.
- 9:07Speaker 1: We're going to live on.
- 9:09Speaker 2: We're going to survive.
- 9:12Speaker 12: Today we celebrate our Independence.
- 9:16Speaker 1: Day, that silly movie Independence Day, which I know did
- 9:27Speaker 1: very very well Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith. But
- 9:32Speaker 1: the speech I said to Justin, I go, is that
- 9:34Speaker 1: a real speech? He goes, no, dummy, that was about aliens.
- 9:39Speaker 1: But it was so good. The end of that speech
- 9:42Speaker 1: when he screamed Independence Day, actually gave me chills. At
- 9:47Speaker 1: silly speech from that silly movie. But party in the USA,
- 9:51Speaker 1: they've been partying for days, the Great State American Fair,
- 9:55Speaker 1: whatever that's called. I don't know. It looks hot and
- 9:57Speaker 1: uncomfortable to me. I gotta tell you, at no point
- 10:00Speaker 1: over the last couple of days have I seen coverage
- 10:03Speaker 1: of that and wanted to be there. I know that
- 10:06Speaker 1: sounds relatively on patriotic for a guy like me, who's
- 10:10Speaker 1: very patriotic, it just looks hot and uncomfortable. But New York.
- 10:16Speaker 1: You want to talk about party in the USA? Right now?
- 10:19Speaker 1: New York is the party, right I mean, think about this.
- 10:23Speaker 1: The Knickerbockers win the championship. But en route to winning
- 10:28Speaker 1: the championship. There were parties every night in New York.
- 10:33Speaker 1: Even riots. You had these stupid watch parties, which I
- 10:39Speaker 1: still think was a big mistake. Even though the majority
- 10:41Speaker 1: of New Yorkers did behave themselves, there were still enough
- 10:45Speaker 1: bad apples to ruin it. But they were partying just
- 10:48Speaker 1: about every game every night really, from the Cleveland series,
- 10:53Speaker 1: the Eastern Conference Finals right through the five game win
- 10:57Speaker 1: over San Antonio in the NBA. So he had that,
- 11:02Speaker 1: and now you've got World Cup soccer, and the Americans
- 11:06Speaker 1: went again last night beat Bosnia too nothing. So now
- 11:10Speaker 1: America advances to the Sweet sixteen. That's a big deal.
- 11:15Speaker 1: We've got a record of three and one so far
- 11:17Speaker 1: in this tournament. We're going to take on Belgium in
- 11:21Speaker 1: Seattle on Monday night. Now, the leading goals scorer for
- 11:25Speaker 1: our team who does not sound American, but I guess
- 11:28Speaker 1: he is. I guess his name is Follerin' blaggin. Is
- 11:34Speaker 1: that how you say it? I I think it's Balagan.
- 11:37Speaker 1: I have no idea, but having a Bob Smith, we're American.
- 11:40Speaker 10: You know, Bob Smith can't play soccer, That's it.
- 11:43Speaker 7: I guess not he got a yellow cards.
- 11:46Speaker 1: So this guy, he's got three goals.
- 11:49Speaker 10: He did score last night too, right he did? Yeah,
- 11:52Speaker 10: he had the first goal.
- 11:53Speaker 1: He had the first goal. Right, So he gets a
- 11:55Speaker 1: red card. And if you don't bottlew soccer, don't worry either,
- 11:59Speaker 1: do I. I don't even know what that means. Did
- 12:02Speaker 1: he do something illegal or what?
- 12:03Speaker 14: Did?
- 12:04Speaker 10: He stepped on the heel of an opposing player and
- 12:07Speaker 10: I guess they thought it was on purpose, And so
- 12:10Speaker 10: the gets you booted from the game and booted from
- 12:12Speaker 10: the next game.
- 12:13Speaker 1: So he suspended. Yeah, so while leading goal scorer is
- 12:16Speaker 1: not going to play against Belgium. No, how good is Belgium?
- 12:19Speaker 10: Belgium beat us in one what's called a friendly match
- 12:21Speaker 10: before the World Cup? Yeah, five to two. How do
- 12:24Speaker 10: you know all this because I follow sort of soccer.
- 12:27Speaker 1: No, you don't. You went it this morning, didn't you. No.
- 12:29Speaker 10: No, My one of my kids is super into It's
- 12:31Speaker 10: really them.
- 12:32Speaker 1: What is you tarden? No, he just loves soccer. I

- 12:42Speaker 14: This game?
- 12:43Speaker 1: Oh Gabe? Okay, you know I love Gabriel. That's my

- 12:52Speaker 1: and now we've got Taylor Swift's wedding, which is tomorrow.
- 12:58Speaker 1: I know people are trying to say, well rumors, there
- 13:01Speaker 1: are no rumors. It's tomorrow, and tonight is the rehearsal dinner.
- 13:08Speaker 1: So I tell Lou I go listen. We're gonna end
- 13:11Speaker 1: the open today with the Taylor Swift story, and we're
- 13:14Speaker 1: gonna play the song Style because I love that song
- 13:17Speaker 1: by Taylor Swift. Actually liked Taylor Swift's music from years ago.
- 13:22Speaker 1: She's just become maybe even too big for me. I
- 13:25Speaker 1: don't know. I'm not a huge fan anymore, but something
- 13:27Speaker 1: I can recognize talent. I like a couple of her songs.
- 13:30Speaker 1: No big deal, So I said to Lou play it
- 13:32Speaker 1: because I've been invited to the wedding. And Lou seemed angry.
- 13:38Speaker 1: I don't know why.
- 13:39Speaker 7: No, no again, the wrong all right, wrong emotion.
- 13:44Speaker 1: Well, then feel free to correctly no surprise, surprise, No
- 13:48Speaker 1: you seemed angry.
- 13:49Speaker 7: No, no again, all right, let's rewind.
- 13:52Speaker 1: Maybe you weren't angry, but you seemed angry. I don't
- 13:55Speaker 1: know why, or maybe.
- 13:56Speaker 7: Even jealous word for it?
- 14:00Speaker 14: What word?
- 14:01Speaker 7: Is that I'm just whatever. I could not believe what
- 14:06Speaker 7: you hear?
- 14:06Speaker 1: Why am I not a big time New Yorker at
- 14:09Speaker 1: this point? Well?
- 14:10Speaker 3: When did you get invited Tuesday and you kept us
- 14:14Speaker 3: in until today?
- 14:15Speaker 14: I did? Yes?
- 14:15Speaker 1: Oh, I see I was told not to say anything
- 14:18Speaker 1: by Jessica Tish.
- 14:19Speaker 7: I gotcha. No, your witness, Tuesday you got told Tuesday.
- 14:25Speaker 1: Night is the nights of rehearsal dinner at Pico Mexican
- 14:29Speaker 1: Restaurant on one hundred and twenty ninth Street in Bell Harbor.
- 14:32Speaker 1: Did you know that?
- 14:32Speaker 13: Loop?
- 14:33Speaker 14: No?
- 14:35Speaker 7: Did I seem angry with that response to I.
- 14:38Speaker 1: Does anybody know whether rehearsal dinner is tonight or kidding aside?
- 14:42Speaker 1: Nobody know?
- 14:44Speaker 10: Somehow they've kept that secret.
- 14:46Speaker 1: A thousand people at MSG tomorrow, including I think they
- 14:51Speaker 1: invited the starting five and they're all coming from the Knicks. Seriously, yes, yes,
- 14:56Speaker 1: because he's a big Knicks fan. How I sat there
- 15:00Speaker 1: and watched her and Travis Kelsey sit on the court
- 15:03Speaker 1: during the Nick Cleveland Cavalier game and Mootbrough Cleveland. How
- 15:07Speaker 1: was he a big Nick fan? It's ridiculous this whole city,
- 15:11Speaker 1: Mam Donnie is not a Nick fan, not even close.
- 15:14Speaker 1: Somebody wrote a speech for him at the victory parade
- 15:18Speaker 1: which was ridiculous, insulting. He knew none of that. By himself,
- 15:23Speaker 1: he took up most of the time speaking when he's
- 15:26Speaker 1: a radical islam Mayer. He spoke more than Jalen Brunson.
- 15:30Speaker 1: He's not a Nick fan. The stupid governor, wicked witch.
- 15:34Speaker 1: She's not a Nick fan. Taylor Swift, she's not a
- 15:38Speaker 1: Nick fan. Why did all of a sudden it becomes
- 15:42Speaker 1: so important for all these jocksniffers to become Nick fans.
- 15:48Speaker 1: I know he won, but this is ridiculous.
- 15:52Speaker 13: Question.
- 15:53Speaker 1: No I'm not I know why, but it's just maybe
- 15:55Speaker 1: doesn't bother a lot of you, but for some reason
- 15:57Speaker 1: it seems to bother me.
- 15:58Speaker 3: I don't know it does, right, Yeah, because she people
- 16:02Speaker 3: were saying she goes to a lot of games.
- 16:04Speaker 7: I've seen like, well, she doesn't. She doesn't go to
- 16:06Speaker 7: a lot of But is.
- 16:07Speaker 1: She there in November when the Knicks are taken on
- 16:09Speaker 1: Memphis and thirty two degree temperatures? Now you think, I
- 16:11Speaker 1: don't think so.
- 16:12Speaker 3: Do you think if she was at games the news
- 16:14Speaker 3: would be covering it left and right. You'd hear about it,
- 16:16Speaker 3: of course, and walking out of that place, she'd have
- 16:19Speaker 3: her whole bunch of people with her.
- 16:22Speaker 7: You'd see it. Stop telling us that she's been at games.
- 16:25Speaker 1: She doesn't go tos.
- 16:26Speaker 7: Not going to games.
- 16:27Speaker 1: I know it's stupid.
- 16:29Speaker 3: Yeah, she lives in New York, Fine, she knows that.
- 16:31Speaker 3: Maybe she knows the Knicks, but she does not go
- 16:34Speaker 3: to games.
- 16:35Speaker 14: No games.
- 16:36Speaker 1: You know what games. She does go to Kansas City Kiefs, right,
- 16:39Speaker 1: she's there every week for her boyfriend now here Poncey
- 16:42Speaker 1: soon to be your husband. She does go to those games,
- 16:45Speaker 1: but she does not go regularly to NICK games.
- 16:49Speaker 7: She just doesn't risk different.
- 16:52Speaker 1: She's there, She is there, Yes, Ben Stiller is there,
- 16:56Speaker 1: Tracy Morgan is there. Spike Douchebag Lee he is there.
- 17:01Speaker 1: But some of these people who became these immense NICK
- 17:05Speaker 1: bands you never see him. Corey Zelnick, he is there.
- 17:10Speaker 1: Bill O'Reilly's there quite a bit. I do think John
- 17:13Speaker 1: Taturo goes quite a bit.
- 17:15Speaker 10: No, he does, but they didn't give him a seat
- 17:18Speaker 10: courtside during the playoffs.
- 17:19Speaker 1: I know I saw that, but I think he got
- 17:21Speaker 1: one in San Antonio. Is that possible? Maybe not, I
- 17:24Speaker 1: don't know. I don't care anymore. Annoyed the hell out
- 17:27Speaker 1: of me too. I I don't care about celebrities. There
- 17:30Speaker 1: was a time I did. I would be a regular
- 17:33Speaker 1: watcher the EA channel I really liked. I became friendly
- 17:38Speaker 1: years and years ago with a guy named Bill Ransick.
- 17:41Speaker 1: And Bill Ransick, you remember this Lewis he won the
- 17:45Speaker 1: very first ever Apprentice before it became Celebrity Apprentice with
- 17:49Speaker 1: Donald Trump and Bill, a Chicago guy, and I became
- 17:52Speaker 1: really good friends. And then he married somebody named Juliana
- 17:57Speaker 1: Duponde and she was on the EACH channel, and she
- 18:00Speaker 1: was part of that great Joan Rivers show which I
- 18:03Speaker 1: never missed ever, with her and Ozzie Osbourne's daughter Kelly,
- 18:09Speaker 1: and the gay guy George from Greece and Juliana who
- 18:13Speaker 1: became Juliana Ransick. You know, she was very good on television.
- 18:19Speaker 1: So anyway, I used to watch the Each Chitele all
- 18:21Speaker 1: the time. And even my friend Kevin Fraser, who used
- 18:25Speaker 1: to work at ESPN now he works at Entertainment Tonight.
- 18:27Speaker 1: For many many years, I got into it, you know,
- 18:30Speaker 1: and I used to love those red carpet shows. Loved
- 18:32Speaker 1: it with Joan Rivers and Willie once Joan Rivers died.
- 18:37Speaker 1: I had had enough. And then when all these Hollywood
- 18:41Speaker 1: people started to become grotesque and lunatics, from Bob de
- 18:46Speaker 1: Niro to Howard Stern to Bruce Springsteen, I want no
- 18:50Speaker 1: part of them. So why don't think I've watched any
- 18:53Speaker 1: of those shows in years? You know why she started
- 18:57Speaker 1: some of that? Lewis was our def friend Pat O'Brien
- 19:00Speaker 1: and when he was was he inside?
- 19:03Speaker 13: Edition?
- 19:03Speaker 1: Was Bill O'Reilly? What was Patt O'Brien again? The insider?
- 19:07Speaker 1: Remember that?
- 19:08Speaker 13: Yeah?
- 19:08Speaker 1: Everybody with Lara Spencer. I think she ended up on
- 19:12Speaker 1: the Today Show. Anyway. I did watch those shows for
- 19:15Speaker 1: a while, but now I hate all of Hollywood, and
- 19:17Speaker 1: that's that. You watch those shows now, No, this show's
- 19:20Speaker 1: a painful a little while, but you love Joan Rivers
- 19:22Speaker 1: now the greatest, the greatest ever. She was so good
- 19:26Speaker 1: on that show, that red carpet show with the fashion,
- 19:29Speaker 1: and man do I miss her? And she died for
- 19:32Speaker 1: like no reason. She was getting It wasn't like a
- 19:35Speaker 1: real surgery.
- 19:36Speaker 7: It was like it was an accident, though right.
- 19:38Speaker 1: It was, but she was getting you know what, what
- 19:40Speaker 1: do you call that? Like plastic surgery or something I
- 19:42Speaker 1: don't know. She died. She wasn't six, yeah, and that
- 19:46Speaker 1: stupid doctor killed.
- 19:47Speaker 10: Her and he took pictures, right, yeah, reported took pictures
- 19:52Speaker 10: she was under yeah.
- 19:52Speaker 14: Yeah.
- 19:53Speaker 1: So it was a big party in the USA. We
- 19:55Speaker 1: got two fifty coming up on Saturday. Officially, We've got
- 20:00Speaker 1: Swift wedding in New York again after the Knicks and
- 20:03Speaker 1: the soccer. Lots of parties. Saturday night, I'll be at
- 20:06Speaker 1: Bethel Woods, which I believe is the most beautiful venue
- 20:11Speaker 1: in the country. You want to see a show. No
- 20:14Speaker 1: place prettier than Bethel Woods. We're gonna watch the Doobie
- 20:17Speaker 1: Brothers and Santana gonna be great. So a lot of
- 20:21Speaker 1: reasons to be in a good mood. But yet I'm
- 20:24Speaker 1: still not really in a good mood. Let me rewind
- 20:26Speaker 1: the tape to last night, and our friends Paul King
- 20:31Speaker 1: and Margaret Powers invited us to go to the Wharf,
- 20:36Speaker 1: which is a beautiful place in Bell Harbor, rockaway right
- 20:40Speaker 1: on the water. I mean, look, you got to say
- 20:42Speaker 1: that setting last night, how beautiful?
- 20:44Speaker 7: Was that amazing?
- 20:46Speaker 13: Right?
- 20:46Speaker 7: Great views? It just felt amazing.
- 20:49Speaker 14: It did.
- 20:49Speaker 1: MJ was there and Lou and me and my son
- 20:52Speaker 1: Gabriel and the Rockaway Republican Club had this party to
- 20:55Speaker 1: celebrate two fifty at the wharf and they invited the
- 21:00Speaker 1: folks running for office. This young lady I really like her.
- 21:03Speaker 1: Her name is Saritha.
- 21:04Speaker 7: Oh. She is smart.
- 21:05Speaker 1: She's very smart. She's running for Attorney General against Letitia James.
- 21:10Speaker 1: I don't know if she can win, to be honest,
- 21:12Speaker 1: but she should win because she's really smart, really prepared,
- 21:16Speaker 1: and she'd be a much better attorney general. She would
- 21:20Speaker 1: actually put criminals behind bars, not spend her days and
- 21:23Speaker 1: nights trying to figure out how to put Donald Trump
- 21:27Speaker 1: behind bars. So she was there, she spoke, and then
- 21:30Speaker 1: the great Sullivan family. You guys know Michael Sullivan, one
- 21:34Speaker 1: of my best friends, Brennan and Carr best roast be
- 21:38Speaker 1: place in the world in Brooklyn, and all the Sullivan
- 21:41Speaker 1: brothers there are seven of them that live in Breezy Point.
- 21:44Speaker 1: Brian Sullivan, former cop, he was there last night with
- 21:47Speaker 1: his beautiful wife Karen and Thomas Tom Sullivan who fought
- 21:52Speaker 1: in Kuwait, Afghanistan, Iraq save people from burning to death
- 21:59Speaker 1: and dying in the World Trade Center on nine to eleven,
- 22:02Speaker 1: legitimately did all of that, and yet he's lost twice
- 22:07Speaker 1: running for Assembly against Stacey Amato in Queens. But he's
- 22:12Speaker 1: running again. He's got Tom Willis behind him again, and
- 22:16Speaker 1: he's gonna win. He's gonna win. So he was there,
- 22:18Speaker 1: he spoke, and Soriita spoke. Bruce Blateman was going to
- 22:23Speaker 1: show up. He was pretty close by, and she said, Bay,
- 22:25Speaker 1: I think in Brooklyn, but he couldn't make it. And
- 22:28Speaker 1: I did most of the speaking. And while I was
- 22:32Speaker 1: definitely celebratory when it came to two fifty, I think
- 22:38Speaker 1: much of my talking last night was somewhat pessimistic. When
- 22:45Speaker 1: you go Happy Birthday, America, but the truth is we
- 22:48Speaker 1: are an effing mess. That's kind of what I was
- 22:53Speaker 1: trying to point out last night. And when you look
- 22:56Speaker 1: at these DSA victory wins in New York, in Colorado,
- 23:02Speaker 1: a legitimate Nazi, just one in Maine, all over the country,
- 23:07Speaker 1: these socialists, these Marxists, these Jew hating TSA candidates that
- 23:13Speaker 1: keep winning. Nine of them have won in New York.
- 23:16Speaker 1: It's not just Mom Dani, not even close. Nine have
- 23:21Speaker 1: won in New York. It's hard for me to just
- 23:24Speaker 1: celebrate two fifty as if everything is wonderful and beautiful,
- 23:28Speaker 1: when the truth is, if you're really paying attention, which
- 23:32Speaker 1: I do too much, the country is falling apart. The
- 23:35Speaker 1: Iran War is not a win. It's a mess. Okay,
- 23:39Speaker 1: it's a mess. You know, you got a lot of
- 23:41Speaker 1: people very upset with President Trump for traveling in an
- 23:45Speaker 1: airplane given to him by Cutter Cutter, the same country
- 23:50Speaker 1: that harbors terrorists, hamas leaders, the same people that murdered
- 23:55Speaker 1: twelve hundred Asrael. He's back in October of twenty twenty
- 23:59Speaker 1: three and would take gifts from that country like it's
- 24:03Speaker 1: a great thing. It's a mess. Mayor Mom Donnie, who
- 24:07Speaker 1: hates his country, who sat there with Ussan Piker when
- 24:10Speaker 1: Piker said America deserved nine to eleven. Mayor Mom Donnie
- 24:14Speaker 1: is going to deliver and address from city Hall marking
- 24:18Speaker 1: America's two hundred and fiftieth birthday. Now, you tell me,
- 24:22Speaker 1: maybe it's just me. I hate the guy. There's no
- 24:25Speaker 1: question I make a living of hating on Mam Donnie.
- 24:29Speaker 1: You tell me, can you think of anybody, anybody worse
- 24:36Speaker 1: than Mom Donnie to deliver and address on the birthday
- 24:40Speaker 1: of our country? What about Mom Donnie screams to you, God,
- 24:46Speaker 1: bless America. You tell me no, not one damn thing,
- 24:51Speaker 1: not one damn thing. He's a radical islam Jihadist, Marxist, socialist, communist.
- 24:59Speaker 1: He hates country, he hates capitalism, he hates every traditional
- 25:03Speaker 1: American value. He's a piece of garbage. And this guy
- 25:08Speaker 1: is going to deliver an address. And then you get
- 25:11Speaker 1: the former vice president, this dopey biac, Kamala Harris, who
- 25:16Speaker 1: wants to run for president again despite being humiliated by
- 25:20Speaker 1: Trump last time. And what does she do. She reaches
- 25:23Speaker 1: out to Mom, Donnie and all these pro Palestine lunatics,
- 25:28Speaker 1: pro Palestine lunatics in an effort, in an effort to
- 25:33Speaker 1: I guess, move forward in her next run for the presidency.
- 25:39Speaker 1: Is that that unbelievable? No, no, Mamala Harris gonna do
- 25:43Speaker 1: it again. Yeah, I mean you know that.
- 25:44Speaker 10: None of it's really surprising because even though she lost,
- 25:47Speaker 10: they everybody is all people around her.
- 25:49Speaker 1: Are telling her, how great shoun again, she should do
- 25:52Speaker 1: it again. She was so good. You remember the message, right,
- 25:55Speaker 1: what was the message? Yeah, that's the point. She giggled
- 25:58Speaker 1: the lotch He talked about all these wonderful abstracts she
- 26:02Speaker 1: had nothing. She's a moron. I'm gonna say to you
- 26:05Speaker 1: right now, folks, at the risk of you calling me
- 26:07Speaker 1: a massagynist, a chauvinist, a racist because she's black. She's
- 26:11Speaker 1: a stupid woman. She slept her way to the top.
- 26:14Speaker 1: We know that the mayor brown out in San Francisco.
- 26:18Speaker 1: Barack Obama even called her publicly pissed off Michelle the
- 26:22Speaker 1: best looking attorney general in the country. Whatever she was, ja,
- 26:25Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't care. She's a moron. Kamala
- 26:29Speaker 1: Harris and AOC are both morons.
- 26:33Speaker 14: Now.
- 26:34Speaker 1: The difference is they're so stupid. Well maybe they're not,
- 26:39Speaker 1: because somehow they've gained big power in this country, big
- 26:43Speaker 1: power like it or not. She is, she was the VP,
- 26:47Speaker 1: she ran for president. AOC is a force in the
- 26:51Speaker 1: Democrat Party. So maybe they're not all that stupid after all.
- 26:54Speaker 1: But they are. Harris and AOC are both morons. Upright
- 27:00Speaker 1: to say it, I'm not going to say that. Why not,
- 27:03Speaker 1: It's a fact. So she's gonna run again, and she's
- 27:07Speaker 1: reaching out to Mom, Donnie and all these pro Palestine lunatics.
- 27:10Speaker 1: Help me out, Please help me out, help me out.
- 27:13Speaker 1: We can win I can beat JD. Vance. Well, I
- 27:17Speaker 1: can't stand either. I know he spoke yesterday, but was
- 27:20Speaker 1: he yesterday?
- 27:21Speaker 14: No?
- 27:21Speaker 1: I think he was in Newport. Oh, that's right, Virginia. Yeah, yeah,
- 27:26Speaker 1: I had to have some of this audio here. He
- 27:28Speaker 1: is the vice president praising the military. He was at
- 27:32Speaker 1: a naval air station. You're right, Nome in Virginia, Beach Lewis.
- 27:36Speaker 14: This is JD.
- 27:38Speaker 1: Vance Cut number seven.
- 27:39Speaker 13: Part of the.
- 27:40Speaker 2: Reason why we in our political leadership are able to
- 27:44Speaker 2: do what we do is because the world over, bad.
- 27:48Speaker 1: Guys and good.
- 27:49Speaker 13: Guys, friends and foes, allies and enemies are afraid of you.
- 27:54Speaker 1: I guess he is more JD. Vance Lewis cut number eight.
- 27:58Speaker 15: They know that if we ask you, guys will go
- 28:02Speaker 15: and make the impossible possible.
- 28:04Speaker 13: They know that when we demand that a bad guy
- 28:08Speaker 13: does something, if they say no, you are the ones
- 28:11Speaker 13: who are going to enforce that demand.
- 28:13Speaker 1: One more JD. Vans once again praising the military, cut
- 28:17Speaker 1: number nine.
- 28:18Speaker 11: When he has asked you to go to war, he
- 28:20Speaker 11: has given you a defined mission.
- 28:23Speaker 15: He's asked you to go and accomplish it, and most importantly,
- 28:26Speaker 15: he's giving you the tools to kick the hell out
- 28:29Speaker 15: of the enemy and to come home safely a ride.
- 28:32Speaker 1: JD vans what's going on in the city Noome today, Well,
- 28:35Speaker 1: we had that big distraction yesterday middle of the day,
- 28:38Speaker 1: that daredevil couple who climbed the Empire State Building's fourteen
- 28:43Speaker 1: foot fourteen hundred foot antenna to the top and nobody
- 28:46Speaker 1: knew exactly what they were up doing.
- 28:48Speaker 10: Remember they unfurled that banner talking about peace. Then one
- 28:52Speaker 10: of them got down on his knee and asked his
- 28:53Speaker 10: girlfriend to marry him.
- 28:55Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, I thought it was pretty cool.
- 28:57Speaker 1: I thought it was te I mean, I'm afraid of heights.
- 29:00Speaker 1: I wouldn't be able to go to the third floor.
- 29:01Speaker 1: I mean, I start freaking out. Like when I watched
- 29:04Speaker 1: the video, I can't even watch it. I'm afraid to
- 29:07Speaker 1: even watch a video of somebody climbing that high. But
- 29:10Speaker 1: to actually get on your knee and ask her to
- 29:12Speaker 1: marry you at the top of that building. I thought
- 29:15Speaker 1: it was pretty cool.
- 29:16Speaker 10: And you could see she did not see it coming
- 29:18Speaker 10: because she had that her body sort of moved back
- 29:21Speaker 10: like no, no, I can't believe you're doing this. And uh,
- 29:24Speaker 10: but then you know what, did you watch it live?
- 29:26Speaker 10: Were you watching it live?
- 29:27Speaker 1: No, I have a life.
- 29:29Speaker 10: No, okay, well, someone someone texting me, Hey, turn on
- 29:32Speaker 10: the TV. See what's going on. Yeah, and you didn't
- 29:34Speaker 10: know how this was gonna end. That was the thing
- 29:36Speaker 10: is like, are they gonna then jump off?
- 29:37Speaker 14: Right?
- 29:38Speaker 1: That would have been cool? Yeah, right, if they just
- 29:39Speaker 1: would have jumped off and yeah right.
- 29:42Speaker 7: Yeah it looked it looks super great. Yeah, but I
- 29:46Speaker 7: think everybody's missing a big point. Hell did they get up?
- 29:48Speaker 1: I don't know, Well, how did they get up?
- 29:51Speaker 7: It's not a good sign.
- 29:52Speaker 14: No, I know.
- 29:53Speaker 7: People now imagine they had an explosive, different.
- 29:56Speaker 1: Guns or something of me. Did they actual come from
- 30:01Speaker 1: the very bottom?
- 30:02Speaker 10: Well, that's there's a lot of questions. How did they
- 30:04Speaker 10: have a ticket? Did they buy a ticket?
- 30:06Speaker 1: We don't know that ticket to what to get up
- 30:08Speaker 1: to the observatory. So maybe they got up there and
- 30:10Speaker 1: then climbed down. Well they didn't scale the whole building.
- 30:14Speaker 10: No, they went up to the observatory and there was
- 30:16Speaker 10: even tourists there who saw them go into it. It's
- 30:19Speaker 10: an employee hatch that takes you up to the antenna.
- 30:22Speaker 10: For some reason, these tourists didn't go tell anybody.
- 30:24Speaker 1: I got these two people know about all this. Well,
- 30:27Speaker 1: they must have cased the place before they cased the joint.
- 30:31Speaker 1: They tased it.
- 30:32Speaker 7: What fun?
- 30:32Speaker 1: Yes, fun, No, lose right, it's a it's a really
- 30:36Speaker 1: bad job and horrible security. Again, it's kind of cute
- 30:41Speaker 1: he has to to marry him. But to lose point,
- 30:43Speaker 1: if they had a bomb or anything, some type of weapon,
- 30:47Speaker 1: it could be very bad.
- 30:48Speaker 7: You can't get to them so easily they got up there,
- 30:51Speaker 7: but those the law enforcement had.
- 30:54Speaker 1: To use, they got up easier than our guys. Remember
- 30:59Speaker 1: Trey see Morgan was on this show not that long ago,
- 31:03Speaker 1: and he talked about the horrible murder that took place
- 31:06Speaker 1: at the Empire State Building. You guys, remember he brought
- 31:09Speaker 1: it up, Yes, King Kong he was, he did. Yeah, yeah,
- 31:21Speaker 1: I have no idea why I've been brought that up
- 31:23Speaker 1: now in the context. But he didn't mention at the
- 31:26Speaker 1: next one that King Kong was murdered at the Empire
- 31:29Speaker 1: State Building. So they got arrested him. They're going to
- 31:38Speaker 1: jump for a long.
- 31:39Speaker 10: Time, I don't know, because they'll they were. They were
- 31:42Speaker 10: hit with a whole bunch of charges last night, reckless endangerment,
- 31:45Speaker 10: criminal mischief, but.
- 31:46Speaker 1: Pop out of jail already today. I mean, people do
- 31:48Speaker 1: commit murder and raper out the next day. But this
- 31:51Speaker 1: and this is a couple. They've done this all over
- 31:53Speaker 1: the world.
- 31:54Speaker 10: If you go to their Instagram, it's yes, there've been
- 31:56Speaker 10: atop of the buildings in tailer wands in the You
- 32:00Speaker 10: can't yes, yeah, the climbers.
- 32:01Speaker 7: You can't do that without being experienced and climbing.
- 32:05Speaker 1: Yeah, it would have been cool. All kidding aside if
- 32:08Speaker 1: they got butt naked and started having sex. I'm serious.
- 32:12Speaker 1: The bangs at the top of the Empire State Building
- 32:14Speaker 1: and it's on TV for all of us to see
- 32:16Speaker 1: Empire State porn. I don't know, approach. Pretty good party

- 34:34Speaker 10: West thirty first, Yes, he does, and he has more
- 34:36Speaker 10: details than anybody. So he's been told they're going to
- 34:39Speaker 10: set up a wall that goes the length of the street,
- 34:42Speaker 10: like right past his bar, so that nobody can see
- 34:45Speaker 10: who's going in and out of the garden. That's part
- 34:47Speaker 10: of the preparations that are going on that he said,
- 34:50Speaker 10: he's been told there's gonna be temporary, tense put up
- 34:52Speaker 10: on West thirty first Street. But he says this wall
- 34:55Speaker 10: that's being installed to block the view, that's the thing
- 34:57Speaker 10: that he's worried about. He says it may hurt business.
- 34:59Speaker 10: Now the opposite may be true, because there's already tons
- 35:02Speaker 10: of swifties standing outside the garden waiting to see what
- 35:05Speaker 10: takes place. Maybe when they're done, they'll go to have
- 35:08Speaker 10: a beer and a burger at his restaurant.
- 35:10Speaker 14: I like it, Yeah, I like it.
- 35:12Speaker 1: It's a good place too, but a good place. What
- 35:14Speaker 1: else you got?
- 35:14Speaker 10: And then, of course, you know the weekend. I don't
- 35:16Speaker 10: know if you know about all that's happening this weekend,
- 35:18Speaker 10: but you know, you have the parade of ships. I mean,
- 35:20Speaker 10: it's gonna be one hundred degrees, so it may not
- 35:23Speaker 10: be so great to be outside, but you have the
- 35:25Speaker 10: parade of ships on Saturday morning. And at the same time,
- 35:29Speaker 10: then you have the Navy Blue Angels. They'll fly overhead.
- 35:33Speaker 1: Those guys are cool. And then there's like those guys.
- 35:35Speaker 10: Yeah, And then on the third you have that we
- 35:37Speaker 10: forgot about this. They're having the ball drop, right, Normally
- 35:40Speaker 10: it's just on New Year's zo Oh that's right. Yeah,
- 35:42Speaker 10: but eleven fifty nine they'll have this historic ball drop.
- 35:45Speaker 10: They'll then throw about two thousand pounds of red, white,
- 35:48Speaker 10: and blue confetti. They'll have live musical performances right in
- 35:52Speaker 10: the middle like they do for New Year's Ease.
- 35:53Speaker 1: You know, annoyed. I don't know why, but not it's
- 35:55Speaker 1: like too much. Now you just annoyed me really, and
- 35:58Speaker 1: I'm not getting done yet. There's more, god what else?
- 36:00Speaker 10: And then, of course then you have the Macy's fireworks display.
- 36:03Speaker 10: Eighty five thousand shells are gonna be exploded. Lower Manhattan
- 36:07Speaker 10: the best spots to see.
- 36:08Speaker 1: Let me just say this, Yeah, if you show up
- 36:11Speaker 1: tomorrow or Saturday to watch the Macy's fireworks display, you
- 36:17Speaker 1: know where I'm going you can do. Are a loser.
- 36:22Speaker 10: I think you're more of a loser if you watch
- 36:23Speaker 10: them on TV.
- 36:24Speaker 1: Oh that's the worst. Yeah, you're right about that. Yes, me,
- 36:28Speaker 1: I'm gonna be a month of Cello Raceway with like
- 36:30Speaker 1: one hundred rednecks watching the fireworks display. Is that Macy's
- 36:36Speaker 1: is great?
- 36:36Speaker 10: Is that the Garucci brothers or I know you past
- 36:39Speaker 10: it has I don't know who it is you Shake.
- 36:41Speaker 1: Stadium, I think and Yankee Stadium, I don't know. So
- 36:44Speaker 1: you got the it's a lot. What else you got
- 36:46Speaker 1: there for Saturday? Yeah, those are the big events on Saturday.
- 36:49Speaker 1: But that's enough. You got parades, you got to fly
- 36:51Speaker 1: over that's kind of are you going to any of those? Well?
- 36:53Speaker 1: The cool part is I live.
- 36:55Speaker 10: I have a view of Midtown from where I live,
- 36:57Speaker 10: so I can just walk outside. Oh that's so I
- 37:00Speaker 10: don't have to be like with the crowds, right, burning
- 37:02Speaker 10: myself out.
- 37:05Speaker 1: And lou you're going to be here too, right you

- 37:24Speaker 1: That'll be great on the beach Alava too, by our house.
- 37:27Speaker 1: I'm sure have it every year. No, it's a very
- 37:30Speaker 1: very fun time, it really is, and America's enjoying themselves
- 37:34Speaker 1: and we should. We have a lot of issues, a
- 37:36Speaker 1: lot of issues, a lot but find a way to
- 37:40Speaker 1: enjoy these next couple of days, because the truth is,
- 37:43Speaker 1: what we've gone in two hundred and fifty years, this
- 37:46Speaker 1: amazing country is nothing short of miraculous. Miraculous. I even
- 37:52Speaker 1: said last night, we're still the best country in the world,
- 37:58Speaker 1: even when Joe Biden's president. I'd say it a lot, right,
- 38:02Speaker 1: It's easy when Trump is president, even with all my
- 38:04Speaker 1: criticisms lately of Trump, the Yran War, how he talks
- 38:09Speaker 1: about bbe on the flip side, how he talks about
- 38:13Speaker 1: terrible people, complimenting them all the time, including Erdowan and
- 38:17Speaker 1: Mamdani and all that, He's still the best and we
- 38:22Speaker 1: are the best. And I want all of you to
- 38:24Speaker 1: go out there and have a good time, and I'll
- 38:26Speaker 1: come back on Monday when all this is basically over. Right,
- 38:30Speaker 1: you're gonna miss it all? Yeah, No, I'm missing it
- 38:32Speaker 1: on purpose. I'm leaving the city on purpose, you know that, Right.
- 38:36Speaker 1: I could stay here and reveling all this stuff. It
- 38:40Speaker 1: just sounds like a lot for me. I don't know.
- 38:43Speaker 1: I can go to DC too, I can call the
- 38:45Speaker 1: President R. Monica Crowley today, I'm sure. But I like
- 38:49Speaker 1: going to my mom's house upstate New York, nice and quiet.
- 38:53Speaker 1: Like I said, I'll see the Doobie Brothers, I'll see Santana,
- 38:57Speaker 1: I'll see plenty of fire works, and I'll be moved
- 39:00Speaker 1: from all the madness of this city. I don't want
- 39:03Speaker 1: to be. I mean this, I know. I don't want
- 39:07Speaker 1: to be an American city. When a radical Islam mayor
- 39:13Speaker 1: speaks to July fourth, I can't do it. I can't
- 39:18Speaker 1: do it. So I stopped watching the Mets. I left
- 39:23Speaker 1: purposely the day the Knicks had that parade in Florida, Israel,
- 39:28Speaker 1: and I refuse to be in this city when Mam
- 39:31Speaker 1: Donnie speaks. So for people that say that since got
- 39:35Speaker 1: Mom Donnie derangement syndrome, you bet your ass.
- 39:38Speaker 14: I do you know?
- 39:40Speaker 1: For people that call me an islamophobist, whatever that word is,
- 39:43Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't care. I'm actually honored when
- 39:46Speaker 1: you call me that. But I believe Noel, the definition
- 39:50Speaker 1: of phobia is a misplaced fear and irrational fear.
- 39:57Speaker 13: Is that not true? That is right?
- 39:58Speaker 1: Okay, if you're not a afraid of radical Islam, then
- 40:03Speaker 1: you're stupid. There is no phobia, there is no Islamophobia.
- 40:07Speaker 1: I'm scared because I should be scared because these people
- 40:13Speaker 1: don't love our country, don't love our traditions, don't love
- 40:17Speaker 1: our values. They come here, they don't mingle. I know
- 40:21Speaker 1: the mayor is because he's won public office. They don't assimilate.
- 40:26Speaker 1: So there is nothing irrational about fearing radical Islam. So
- 40:32Speaker 1: what islamaphobia exactly is? I don't know. I don't know,
- 40:38Speaker 1: and I don't care. So I do want to be
- 40:41Speaker 1: anywhere near this city when the mayor is involved with
- 40:45Speaker 1: something like that. Is that too much known?
- 40:46Speaker 14: No?
- 40:47Speaker 1: I think that's fair. You do right, all right? Today
- 40:49Speaker 1: you have it all right? A lot of guests stopping
- 40:51Speaker 1: by today on this Thursday at Trulia Priday morning, because again,
- 40:55Speaker 1: this show is off tomorrow. You guys have any idea
- 40:57Speaker 1: who's filling in tomorrow? I don't, Okay? Is John and Jake?
- 41:02Speaker 1: John and Jake. Okay. We'll be back on Monday. But
- 41:05Speaker 1: today we've got which Lowry, We've got the president. He
- 41:07Speaker 1: was just re elected again of the Sergeant's Benelopment Association.
- 41:11Speaker 1: My dear friend Vincent Vodolan, Brian Goeltzano was gonna stop by.
- 41:15Speaker 1: Mitchell Robinson just won the championship with our Knicks he's
- 41:19Speaker 1: now a Boston Celtic, and Jalen Brown, who wasn't Boston
- 41:24Speaker 1: Celtic a couple of days ago is now a Philadelphia
- 41:27Speaker 1: seventy sixer. And Lebron James. Where is he gonna end up?
- 41:32Speaker 1: We'll talk to Brian Goeltzaner coming up, Kate K mcfauland
- 41:35Speaker 1: Bill O'Reilly, Sid.
- 41:37Speaker 2: And friends in the morning on the Red Apple Podcast Network.
- 41:42Speaker 1: A couple of days ago, we got a big delivery
- 41:45Speaker 1: Danielle and I my bit a hole wife of flowers
- 41:49Speaker 1: to our house in Queens and it was Tom and
- 41:52Speaker 1: Reney sending this huge bouquet because a week ago Thursday,
- 41:58Speaker 1: Danielle and I celebrated out thirty four wedding anniversary. So
- 42:01Speaker 1: thank you to Tom and Renee for that. We love
- 42:04Speaker 1: the Jaspers. Mike Lawler went to Manhattan, Woody Giuliani went
- 42:09Speaker 1: to Manhattan. Ray Kelly went to Manhattan. So thank you
- 42:13Speaker 1: for that, Tom and Money. You know, yesterday I started
- 42:18Speaker 1: the show by talking about July the first, on a
- 42:21Speaker 1: sad note, how my father passed away six years ago yesterday,
- 42:27Speaker 1: the Great Harvey died July first, twenty twenty. But how
- 42:32Speaker 1: about this Every July first not only will I be
- 42:37Speaker 1: reminded of my dad's death, but at least until two
- 42:41Speaker 1: thousand and thirty five. This is nuts. I saw his
- 42:46Speaker 1: video yesterday. Former New York met Bobby Bonia. I know
- 42:52Speaker 1: you folks forgot about this, receives one point three million
- 42:58Speaker 1: dollars every July first from the Mets until two thousand
- 43:04Speaker 1: and thirty five as part of his deferred money contract
- 43:08Speaker 1: that he did way before Steve Cohen. So there's a
- 43:12Speaker 1: video of Bobby's celebrating yesterday. This guy gets over a
- 43:16Speaker 1: million dollars a year every year on July the first.
- 43:19Speaker 1: Know how did he get such a deal? He's smart,
- 43:23Speaker 1: good agent. I mean Otani doing kind of the same
- 43:25Speaker 1: thing with much bigger numbers, obviously, but Otani deferred like
- 43:29Speaker 1: almost a billion dollars.
- 43:32Speaker 13: You know.
- 43:32Speaker 1: That's the issue with baseball, and that's why there's not
- 43:34Speaker 1: going to be any baseball next year. Trust me, there'll
- 43:37Speaker 1: be no baseball next year. Enjoy it this year, even
- 43:40Speaker 1: though New York's a mess right now, Mets are terrible, Yankees,
- 43:44Speaker 1: I've lost Watt Seventh Street. But there'll be no baseball
- 43:47Speaker 1: next year. And one of the issues is the Dodgers
- 43:51Speaker 1: continue to put together championship teams. They've won the last
- 43:55Speaker 1: two World Series. They'll probably win it again this year
- 43:58Speaker 1: because all their players defer their money, so the Dodgers
- 44:02Speaker 1: could afford to pay everybody now to win championships, and
- 44:07Speaker 1: they get their money later in life, just like Bobby Bonia.
- 44:11Speaker 1: Another million three from Bobby Bonia yesterday.
- 44:15Speaker 7: Not nuts could be one of the greatest sports things.
- 44:19Speaker 1: I mean, I think he was the first one to
- 44:20Speaker 1: do that, right.
- 44:21Speaker 19: Yeah.
- 44:22Speaker 7: They used that big lump some payment to put between
- 44:27Speaker 7: two thousand and eleven I think and thirty five. Yeah,
- 44:31Speaker 7: so he got paid.
- 44:32Speaker 1: No, we performed it. Yeahbe four thousand and six or something.
- 44:34Speaker 1: I don't know, but I saw the video and I
- 44:37Speaker 1: was like, excuse me, I forgot about this. Did you
- 44:41Speaker 1: see the video? Known I did.
- 44:42Speaker 10: When was the last time he actually played for the Mets.
- 44:44Speaker 1: Oh my god. It's gotta be twenty plus years and
- 44:49Speaker 1: he wasn't very good with the Mats. You'll remember, of course,
- 44:51Speaker 1: he was a great Pittsburgh pirate him and Bonds nine.
- 44:56Speaker 14: Wow.
- 44:57Speaker 1: Yeah, those Pirate teams with him and Barry Bonds and
- 45:02Speaker 1: Andy Van Slike and those guys were great World Series teams.
- 45:05Speaker 1: But he came to the Mets. But Jeff Torborg, you
- 45:09Speaker 1: remember all that we got Brett Saberhagen, Greg Jeffries was
- 45:13Speaker 1: just coming up after that great rookie campaign in eighty eight,
- 45:17Speaker 1: and we couldn't win, and Benia made a lot of money,
- 45:20Speaker 1: couldn't field most days out in right field and who
- 45:23Speaker 1: was just a disaster? Yes, okay, yeah, one point three
- 45:29Speaker 1: million dollars every July first from Bobby bow He's no dummy.
- 45:35Speaker 1: That is unbelievable.

- 46:28Speaker 19: news yesterday coming out of the NBA free agent center,
- 46:31Speaker 19: Mitchell Robinson, fresh off winning that NBA toital with our
- 46:34Speaker 19: New York Knicks, has agreed to a three year, forty
- 46:36Speaker 19: seven point four million dollar day to sign with the
- 46:38Speaker 19: Boston Celtics with a player option in the third season.
- 46:41Speaker 19: Will be a backup center out there in Boston. Sayonara
- 46:45Speaker 19: to the great Mitchell Robinson. Also Jillen Brown as a
- 46:49Speaker 19: new home as the Celtics agreed to send the former
- 46:51Speaker 19: NBA finals MVP did the Philadelphia the seventy.
- 46:53Speaker 1: Six ers in a block, They're gonna be really good. Yeah,
- 46:55Speaker 1: I mean if embiide could actually play, But how many
- 46:57Speaker 1: got Maxi and Jalen Brown?
- 47:00Speaker 19: But how many times have we said that? And no,
- 47:01Speaker 19: maybe the past five six years where the Sixers are
- 47:04Speaker 19: gonna be?
- 47:04Speaker 1: You know, they went to the second round this year.
- 47:06Speaker 1: The Nicko Boker's killed them, but they added Jalen Brown.
- 47:09Speaker 1: He's one of the best five players in the league
- 47:11Speaker 1: of ten players.
- 47:12Speaker 19: It is six or five years ago when they added
- 47:14Speaker 19: James Harden. You know, Jimmy Butler, No, no, no, no,
- 47:19Speaker 19: you can't compare. This guy is a legitimate superstar, and
- 47:23Speaker 19: him and Maxie. If EMB gives them something, they could
- 47:27Speaker 19: be really good. I agree, really good. I totally agree.
- 47:30Speaker 19: I'm just saying we've almost been down this road before
- 47:32Speaker 19: with the.
- 47:33Speaker 1: Same now with a guy like Brown, those other guys.
- 47:35Speaker 1: They also added Paul George. Don't forget right now. He
- 47:38Speaker 1: went to Boston. So Boston ends up with Paul George
- 47:41Speaker 1: and Mitchell Robinson. But they lose Jalen Brown. I think
- 47:44Speaker 1: the seventy six Ers now become maybe the favorite. They're
- 47:48Speaker 1: right there with the Nickabockers and maybe Toronto.
- 47:51Speaker 19: Yeah, they certainly leave Progate Celtics.
- 47:53Speaker 14: You know.
- 47:54Speaker 1: Yeah, you lose Jalen Brown, you bring in Mitchell Robinson
- 47:57Speaker 1: and Paul George. He took a step back. I would say, though,
- 48:00Speaker 1: Jason Tatum is going to be healthy this year, Yes
- 48:03Speaker 1: you will, so they're gonna be really good. They still
- 48:05Speaker 1: up Derek White. Yeah, it looks like a million bucks.
- 48:08Speaker 1: I would say the Nickabocker's road is not going to
- 48:11Speaker 1: be easy this year. No, it will not be, so
- 48:14Speaker 1: we'll see.
- 48:14Speaker 19: But of course, you know, I mean, yeah, these teams
- 48:16Speaker 19: got to load up. They saw what the Knicks did
- 48:18Speaker 19: this year, and you got to come back with a
- 48:21Speaker 19: formidable squad to you know, try and take them.
- 48:24Speaker 1: Down from the top of that mountain.
- 48:25Speaker 19: We'll see speaking about the bottom of said mountain. Both
- 48:29Speaker 19: of our local ball clubs are right there right now.

- 49:19Speaker 1: Rockaway Republican Club led by Paul King and our friend
- 49:24Speaker 1: Margaret Powers. They now have The Rockaway Times and they

- 49:42Speaker 1: talk about me going in October the twenty second at
- 49:46Speaker 1: the Rainbow Room in New York City. Is did a
- 49:48Speaker 1: good job here, Paul King did because he actually got
- 49:51Speaker 1: quotes from some of our favorite local politicians. So for example,
- 49:57Speaker 1: here's one from Mike Lawler. Mike Lawler says sid Rosenberg
- 50:02Speaker 1: is a true New York original and national treasure. Mike provocative, funny, passionate, unrelenting.
- 50:11Speaker 1: He cares deeply about the issues that impact New Yorkers.
- 50:15Speaker 1: A well deserved honor for a great American. That's really nice.
- 50:20Speaker 1: Mike Lawler. Here is former congressman now the man who
- 50:25Speaker 1: basically with Sandalin runs Trump's labor department, the great Anthony Diesposito.
- 50:30Speaker 1: He said a horny moseltop to my dear friend sid
- 50:33Speaker 1: Rosenberg on his induction into the Hall of Fame. He's
- 50:37Speaker 1: overcome tremendous challenges, fought his way back from difficult times,
- 50:42Speaker 1: and built an extraordinary career through grit, faith and perseverance.
- 50:46Speaker 1: Along the way, he's remained a fearless voice for law enforcement,
- 50:51Speaker 1: a staunch supporter of Israel, and a proud advocate for
- 50:55Speaker 1: conservative values. This honor is richly deserved. Congratulations my friend.
- 51:01Speaker 1: Thank you, Anthony. And one more from the amazing fourteen
- 51:05Speaker 1: term Congressman Peter King, who was on this show just yesterday.
- 51:09Speaker 1: It's been a turbulent journey, but sid Rosenberg is truly
- 51:15Speaker 1: mister New York Radio, the voice of real New Yorkers, cities, loyal, tough,

- 51:48Speaker 1: I made a speech last night at this event, and look,
- 51:52Speaker 1: I'm all about celebrating two hundred and fifty. I think
- 51:55Speaker 1: it's marvelous. And we are far in a way, it's
- 51:58Speaker 1: not even close. We are four and away the greatest
- 52:01Speaker 1: country in the world. I do wish our kids learn
- 52:05Speaker 1: more about our history. Like Brian kill Meats on the
- 52:08Speaker 1: show yesterday, I don't even know about the Revolution. You know,
- 52:11Speaker 1: all the teach in New York City schools is slavery
- 52:16Speaker 1: and civil rights. These kids have no idea what the
- 52:19Speaker 1: real history of this country is. And we're a magnificent country.
- 52:23Speaker 1: But we got a lot of problems right now. We
- 52:27Speaker 1: got DSA candidates winning all across America. We're involved in
- 52:31Speaker 1: a warning matter of what President Trump says that we're
- 52:34Speaker 1: not winning. Fact, it's hurting us. So you tell me, Rich,
- 52:38Speaker 1: while we get set to celebrate Saturday, a worthwhile celebration
- 52:43Speaker 1: is it not damp in just a little by what's
- 52:47Speaker 1: going on in this country and outside this country.
- 52:51Speaker 20: No, I don't think you should dampen the celebration of
- 52:54Speaker 20: this amazing experiment two hundred and fifty years. You know,
- 52:58Speaker 20: we're a country that has a young spirit. At the
- 53:00Speaker 20: same time, we have some of the oldest governing institutions
- 53:03Speaker 20: in America because they're built by geniuses and work so well.
- 53:07Speaker 20: And if you look back in nineteen seventy six, the
- 53:09Speaker 20: last big celebration, the country isn't a terrible place. Then
- 53:12Speaker 20: Jimmy Carter was president. Gap lines of Iran was about
- 53:16Speaker 20: to be It wasn't that.
- 53:18Speaker 1: That wasn't until his way out in like seventy eight.
- 53:21Speaker 20: Seventy nine, right, Yeah, I just spoke it wasn't happening yet,
- 53:24Speaker 20: but the humiliation was to come and that the fifty
- 53:27Speaker 20: year War was going to begin. So no, it shouldn't
- 53:30Speaker 20: dampen our celebration. But look, we should be concerned about it,
- 53:33Speaker 20: no doubt. I mean, the Democrats are going into a
- 53:35Speaker 20: lunatic place. And there's poisonous trends on the right as well.
- 53:41Speaker 1: There are, but a lot of them is poisonous trends
- 53:43Speaker 1: on the right aren't politicians. It is not a politician. Okay,
- 53:48Speaker 1: so when not yet?
- 53:50Speaker 20: You know, not yet he wants to form a party.
- 53:52Speaker 20: But look, Donald Trump has held the center on this
- 53:55Speaker 20: on this issue, and it is holding it back on
- 53:58Speaker 20: the right. So even write about him and how important
- 54:02Speaker 20: he is to Jews, there's just no doubt about it.
- 54:05Speaker 1: President Trump. Yeah, yeah, but he's gone sideways, you know
- 54:09Speaker 1: what I mean. I spend most of my time the
- 54:12Speaker 1: last couple of weeks criticizing President Trump more than saying
- 54:17Speaker 1: nice things about him. Now, look, don't deal, he's still
- 54:20Speaker 1: the best effort. Well, the the Iran deal is it's
- 54:24Speaker 1: not a deal. Let's stop saying that, Okay, right now,
- 54:26Speaker 1: it's an MoU There is no deal. There's no deal.
- 54:30Speaker 1: So between this Iran mess and I don't care about
- 54:32Speaker 1: the Dow Jones and the SNP, it's a mess, and
- 54:36Speaker 1: the way he's been treating Israel and BB lately, and
- 54:39Speaker 1: his continued compliments of people like Erdawan and Mom Donnie.
- 54:44Speaker 1: Even though I still love him dearly, I think he's
- 54:46Speaker 1: mad at me, but I love him dearly. Lately, I'm
- 54:49Speaker 1: not all that happy with President Trump. How about that? Yeah, well, he.
- 54:53Speaker 20: Hasn't gone you know, where jd Vance has in terms
- 54:55Speaker 20: of criticizing Israel. But look, he was just desperate.
- 54:58Speaker 13: Toularly criticizes.
- 55:00Speaker 1: Maybe always very very tough on bebe very tough.
- 55:03Speaker 20: Yeah, well you know he'll he'll be tough on him
- 55:06Speaker 20: now and not tough on him six months from now.
- 55:08Speaker 20: But he's not on Israel and the Jews. He's not
- 55:12Speaker 20: where you know, Tucker Carlson is and never will be.
- 55:15Speaker 20: That's just not fundamentally where he is. But look, you know,
- 55:18Speaker 20: the gas prices, he couldn't take them. You know, he
- 55:20Speaker 20: wanted to stop. He apparently, according to the Wall Street
- 55:23Speaker 20: Journal on whether he saw this report yesterday or the
- 55:26Speaker 20: day before, he wanted to reopen the Straight, but he
- 55:28Speaker 20: needed Saudy bases to do it. And Saudi said no,
- 55:31Speaker 20: you know, in part, by the way, because the Iranians
- 55:34Speaker 20: lashed out when we began to reopen the Straight and
- 55:36Speaker 20: hit golf countries. And Trump said, oh, this is no
- 55:38Speaker 20: big deal because he didn't want to start a big
- 55:41Speaker 20: fight again. So but that that made it kind of
- 55:44Speaker 20: militarily impossible to reopen it. And then what are you
- 55:46Speaker 20: going to do? You know you're going to you know,
- 55:48Speaker 20: wait six months with the blockade, with the gas prices
- 55:51Speaker 20: maybe going above five dollars a gallon, I think it
- 55:55Speaker 20: was politically impossible. So I think it's it's we didn't
- 56:00Speaker 20: win the war, and that's the reason why there is
- 56:03Speaker 20: a terrible diplomatic deal.
- 56:04Speaker 1: Not even close to winning the war. The fact, and
- 56:07Speaker 1: you know, yesterday it was kind of a rough day too,
- 56:08Speaker 1: because here he's in a plane that was given to
- 56:12Speaker 1: us by Cutter, and a lot of Americans, not Tucker Carlson.
- 56:16Speaker 1: He's made a lot of money, but a lot of
- 56:18Speaker 1: Americans don't like this relationship with Cutter. I mean, the
- 56:21Speaker 1: fact is they were housing terrorists, still are Hamas leaders,
- 56:26Speaker 1: they live in Cutter. Okay, So we're taking a plane
- 56:29Speaker 1: from a country that harbor's terrorists that helped kill Americans
- 56:33Speaker 1: and Israelis of course, and big, big numbers, and then
- 56:36Speaker 1: all this talk about the stock Axon or whatever that is,
- 56:40Speaker 1: I don't know, and the fact that is a cryptocurrency
- 56:43Speaker 1: company was costing people millions and millions of dollars. But
- 56:47Speaker 1: here American Donald Junior, they made billions and billions of dollars.
- 56:50Speaker 1: So that whole trip yesterday for Teddy Roosevelt to North Dakota.
- 56:55Speaker 1: Wasn't a great look for President Trump. Will you tell
- 56:57Speaker 1: me maybe I'm wrong?
- 56:58Speaker 20: Well, it's not a great And this is something we're
- 57:01Speaker 20: going to spend a lot of next year talking about
- 57:03Speaker 20: because I still believe Democrats are going to take the
- 57:05Speaker 20: House and this is going to be their obsession. It's
- 57:07Speaker 20: going to be investigations into how Trump and everyone around
- 57:11Speaker 20: them has made so much money and a lot of
- 57:13Speaker 20: it's not.
- 57:13Speaker 16: Going to be great.
- 57:16Speaker 1: They're already all over it this morning on MS now
- 57:18Speaker 1: and CNN. That's all they're talking about. But you know,
- 57:21Speaker 1: getting back to the Democrats, and this is why you
- 57:24Speaker 1: know this Rich I get crazy when I hear people
- 57:27Speaker 1: talk about moderate Democrats. You know that they don't exist.
- 57:31Speaker 1: I've said it a billion times. There's one John Betterman,
- 57:36Speaker 1: that's it. And to be honest, John Betterman should really
- 57:39Speaker 1: take Mansions advice and at this point just become a Republican.
- 57:43Speaker 1: It's silly. Every Democrat, every one of them, if you
- 57:47Speaker 1: want to call them moderate Democrats, progressive Democrats. Eventually they
- 57:51Speaker 1: cave because they want to win and they can't win
- 57:55Speaker 1: without joining the rest of these lunatics. And this DSA stuff.
- 58:00Speaker 1: This woman in Colorado a couple of nights ago, Ma'm
- 58:03Speaker 1: donnie here. There's now nine New York politicians that are
- 58:06Speaker 1: part of that group. It is sweeping the country. If
- 58:10Speaker 1: you're an American and you're not terrified of this, you've
- 58:13Speaker 1: got your head in the sand man. These people are bad,
- 58:17Speaker 1: really bad.
- 58:17Speaker 20: Rich No, absolutely, they hate America, they hate what's made
- 58:21Speaker 20: it great, and they have all the momentum in the
- 58:23Speaker 20: Democratic Party and relatively moderate Democrats, maybe we'll put it
- 58:28Speaker 20: that way, Democrats who aren't Democratic socialists. They have no
- 58:31Speaker 20: anybodies against this, they have no courage to fight it.
- 58:34Speaker 20: So's they could very well nominate a presidential candidate who
- 58:39Speaker 20: is this way. You know, if you're AOC, you're an
- 58:42Speaker 20: idiot if you don't run for president now.
- 58:44Speaker 1: But in the meantime, Kamala Harris, who was their I
- 58:49Speaker 1: guess she was their nominee. There was no vote the Democrats,
- 58:53Speaker 1: they just threw her in there. She reached out to AOC,
- 58:57Speaker 1: and she reached out to Mom Donnie and two or
- 58:59Speaker 1: three these other pro Palestinian DSA candidates because she wants
- 59:04Speaker 1: to run and she knows she needs them. So the
- 59:08Speaker 1: question becomes this AOC now run again, Schumer, he won't
- 59:12Speaker 1: even run, He'll just retire. Take that right, She'll take
- 59:16Speaker 1: that Senate seat in New York. Let somebody like Harris
- 59:20Speaker 1: or Bourdagig be the sacrifice and then decide to win
- 59:24Speaker 1: in four years. She's still very very young.
- 59:27Speaker 20: Yeah, that is a decision the Senate. See just seems
- 59:30Speaker 20: to be hers for the taking if she wants it.
- 59:31Speaker 20: But does she want to reach for the brass ring?
- 59:34Speaker 20: And Harris by the way, it's just such a soulss hack.
- 59:37Speaker 20: This is exactly what she did when she ran the
- 59:39Speaker 20: first time around with Bernie Sanders. She thought Bernie was
- 59:42Speaker 20: a hot new thing, so she was to pick up
- 59:44Speaker 20: all his ideas. That's what she's gonna do with mom
- 59:47Speaker 20: Domni in this crew as well.
- 59:50Speaker 1: It's just unbelievable. What makes these people think, I mean,
- 59:53Speaker 1: her performance was right there with Curtis sliwa, you know,
- 59:59Speaker 1: not being serious. Curtiscott's Curtiscott. Curtis got seven percent of
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: the vote, which was the worst showing ever. Mind you,
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: four years before that he also got his ass whooped
- 1:00:11Speaker 1: by Eric Adams whooped, and he's all over Dave Portnoy.
- 1:00:15Speaker 1: Curtis should shut the hell up. Seriously, when you get
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: seven percent, you do not own the right to make
- 1:00:21Speaker 1: fun of any other candidate. But I'm using him as
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: an example because he lost an embarrassing fashion right loser.
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: Harris lost an embarrassing fashion She lost every swing state,
- 1:00:32Speaker 1: She lost every popular vote in the country. She only
- 1:00:36Speaker 1: wanted states where they had no ID and these people
- 1:00:38Speaker 1: keep coming back for more.
- 1:00:40Speaker 13: Why.
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: I guess money fame?
- 1:00:42Speaker 16: What is it?
- 1:00:44Speaker 20: I think you know, when you lose, usually the reaction
- 1:00:46Speaker 20: of your party is like, thank you very much, we
- 1:00:48Speaker 20: don't want to hear hear from you again. But that
- 1:00:51Speaker 20: hasn't been the reaction with her. And I think it's
- 1:00:53Speaker 20: because they blame Biden and that that he does bear
- 1:00:57Speaker 20: a lot of the blame. You know, he had a
- 1:00:59Speaker 20: president who's near seen isle, decided to run again, screwed up.
- 1:01:02Speaker 20: The whole thing was unpopular, so she's gotten the pass now.
- 1:01:07Speaker 20: I think she was a terrible candidate, and if she
- 1:01:09Speaker 20: had a better candidate, she might have won. You know,
- 1:01:11Speaker 20: it's she Yeah, she lost every swing state. She lost
- 1:01:13Speaker 20: them pretty narrowly. You know, it was still pretty close election,
- 1:01:16Speaker 20: so if they had had someone better, they might have
- 1:01:18Speaker 20: pulled it out, but she's terrible. But I think she's
- 1:01:22Speaker 20: a legit contender. You know, she has a lot of
- 1:01:24Speaker 20: black support. That's important that the black voters buy and
- 1:01:28Speaker 20: large in the Democratic presidential premiers. They aren't DSA types,
- 1:01:32Speaker 20: you know, they're relatively moderate. So I hate to say it,
- 1:01:36Speaker 20: she has a chance. It's scary for the country if
- 1:01:38Speaker 20: she would ever be president of the United States, but
- 1:01:39Speaker 20: I think she had a chance to be their nominee again.
- 1:01:42Speaker 1: And you'll hear Republicans say, oh, that would be great news,
- 1:01:46Speaker 1: and I would just say, be careful what you wish for.
- 1:01:48Speaker 1: I used this last night, you know, when the Celtics
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: became a bad basketball team so good who the coach was,
- 1:01:55Speaker 1: maybe Patino, I don't even know, and he said, you know,
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: Larry Bird is not walking through that door anytime soon.
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: And President Trump, for all my criticism in the last
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: couple of weeks, I still think he's the best and
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: I love him and I'm gonna cry like a baby
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: when he's done. So President Trump is not walking through
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: those doors anytime soon. And I have to tell you
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: it's anecdotal. It's just me Sid Rosenberg, but I talk
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: to a lot of people the last two weeks between
- 1:02:22Speaker 1: Israel and seven thousand miles away here in New York.
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: Nobody that I speak to, nobody would rather have JD.
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: Vance as our nominee than Marco Rubio. Not one person.
- 1:02:37Speaker 20: Yeah, everyone I've talked to you. I haven't met a
- 1:02:39Speaker 20: Republican who doesn't like Marco Rubio. I have met some
- 1:02:42Speaker 20: that don't like Jdvance, just anecdotally. But I don't think
- 1:02:46Speaker 20: Marco's running me either. I think JD will be the nominee.
- 1:02:50Speaker 20: I think they'll be.
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: Let me stop me for a second. I agree with you,
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: and I don't think Marco is running because and maybe
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: I'm wrong. You know more about this than I do,
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: because I think that's what is it in Trump wants?
- 1:03:01Speaker 1: Is that not right?
- 1:03:02Speaker 20: I don't know. It's a little hard to read. I
- 1:03:05Speaker 20: think in the abstract he kind of liked both of
- 1:03:07Speaker 20: them to run so they can do the thing for
- 1:03:09Speaker 20: a year. Who do you guys want me to to support,
- 1:03:12Speaker 20: you know, and so have both of them on a
- 1:03:14Speaker 20: string and have the competition. But Marco, you know, he
- 1:03:18Speaker 20: cut for for all our criticisms of Trump and what
- 1:03:21Speaker 20: he's done and Iran lately, the Lebanon deal is fantastic.
- 1:03:24Speaker 20: You know who did that, Marco Rubio. That's a real
- 1:03:25Speaker 20: consequential thing. You know, He's done a really important, big
- 1:03:28Speaker 20: job that he loves to be doing well at. So
- 1:03:31Speaker 20: why would he you know, seven months from now, whatever
- 1:03:34Speaker 20: it is, get in the rented car and drive around.
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: I get it. Look and look. I love more going.
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: I love him to pieces and I want him to
- 1:03:40Speaker 1: be the guy. But that Lebanon deal really is real.
- 1:03:43Speaker 1: Just struck Leblon again the last couple of days, you
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: know that, Right last night we hit him again. You
- 1:03:47Speaker 1: know that, right, I say, we Israel, but we hit
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: him again, you know that? Right?
- 1:03:51Speaker 13: Yeah?
- 1:03:51Speaker 20: Yeah, but this is so much better than what's in them. Oh,
- 1:03:54Speaker 20: I understand, but you know, and it's an alliance with
- 1:03:57Speaker 20: the Lebanese government against I know it's not a magic
- 1:04:01Speaker 20: wand but it's a step forward. But look, I think
- 1:04:05Speaker 20: the only thing that's going to stop JD likely is
- 1:04:08Speaker 20: for some reason Trump decides he doesn't like him, or
- 1:04:10Speaker 20: he wants to screw him, or he wants to, you know,
- 1:04:13Speaker 20: just just pull the rug out from under him. That's plausible. Otherwise,
- 1:04:17Speaker 20: I think he's very likely to be the nominee and
- 1:04:20Speaker 20: The problem is can he reignite the Trump coalition the
- 1:04:22Speaker 20: way Trump does? Know no one can do that. Where
- 1:04:26Speaker 20: is he going to add to the coalition. It's hard
- 1:04:28Speaker 20: to see where it is. And Trump's probably not going
- 1:04:30Speaker 20: to be very popular. You know, maybe there's an economic
- 1:04:32Speaker 20: boom and things have changed, but probably you know, forty
- 1:04:34Speaker 20: two ish approval. So it's gonna be really tough, and
- 1:04:37Speaker 20: it would depend on the Democrats nominating someone who's unacceptable,
- 1:04:40Speaker 20: which they very well could do.
- 1:04:42Speaker 1: Final ninety seconds, which Lowry. How do you think this
- 1:04:45Speaker 1: Iran thing ends in what has to happen?
- 1:04:51Speaker 20: I'm not sure. I think it just kind of bumps along.
- 1:04:54Speaker 20: I don't think Trump's going to wage a major war
- 1:04:57Speaker 20: against them again. I think they're going to keep yanking
- 1:04:59Speaker 20: our chain in the Strait of hoour moves, and they
- 1:05:02Speaker 20: love renegotiating things they've supposedly agreed to. So if they
- 1:05:06Speaker 20: can keep us just negotiating with them about that, what
- 1:05:09Speaker 20: actually is happening in the strait, you don't even get
- 1:05:11Speaker 20: to the nuclear stuff. And they figure next year, as
- 1:05:15Speaker 20: we were alluding to earlier, Trump's gonna be really distracted
- 1:05:18Speaker 20: and taken down a notch because the midterms are going
- 1:05:20Speaker 20: to be terrible and then they're home free. Now, look,
- 1:05:23Speaker 20: a lot of their stuff is still wrecked. It's gonna
- 1:05:25Speaker 20: take a lot of time to rebuild, but they will
- 1:05:28Speaker 20: have survived.
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: He's got to stop at these ridiculous meetings too. Stop
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: go high yesterday. And you know, I don't know Steve
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: wit Coorp. I know his kid, Alex. He's a nice kid.
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: He's in the Holocaust Memorial Council with me. Trump appointed
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: both of us. But everybody that I know that knows
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: Steve Witcorp likes him. But he has no right doing
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: these types of things. He's a real estate guy sitting
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: in a room with a bunch of people that want
- 1:05:52Speaker 1: to kill us. He has no right. And the truth
- 1:05:55Speaker 1: is that him and Kushner will have done nothing nothing.
- 1:05:58Speaker 1: And when I hear there's a meeting coming up, I
- 1:06:00Speaker 1: gotta be honest, Rich, I start to laugh. What a
- 1:06:03Speaker 1: waste of time. Enough with the stupid meetings. They are
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: not going to work. And I'll say to you what
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: I said to a very large Fox News audience, which
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: I shocked. Rachel Campost, Duppy, Charlie Hurt, I know you
- 1:06:17Speaker 1: saw this, and Grip Jenkins on Sunday morning head On
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: will never do a deal ever, and if they do
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: a deal, much like they did with Obama and Kerry,
- 1:06:27Speaker 1: they will never comply, never, ever, ever. So let's stop
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: with the meetings, let's stop trying to pull the wool
- 1:06:35Speaker 1: over the American's eyes. Let's be honest about this and
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: either send everybody home and call it a day and
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: work on the Dow Jones and jobs, or bomb the
- 1:06:45Speaker 1: shizzle out of them. That's it. Am I wrong?
- 1:06:48Speaker 14: Rich?
- 1:06:48Speaker 12: That's it.
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: I can't say you're wrong, but you didn't say it
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: was right.
- 1:06:54Speaker 20: No, I think you're right. The problem is he's not
- 1:06:56Speaker 20: gonna bomb the shizzle out of them because why not?
- 1:06:58Speaker 13: Why not?
- 1:06:59Speaker 20: Well was the unpopular war, right? So he doesn't want
- 1:07:02Speaker 20: to start it again. He's made a big deal about
- 1:07:04Speaker 20: being being over, so it's even harder now over.
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: You got to be an idiot to think it's over.
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: How do you start something and not finish well?
- 1:07:14Speaker 20: Because we couldn't reopen the straight of her moves, so
- 1:07:16Speaker 20: he was he was just stuck. We're back to the
- 1:07:20Speaker 20: word you used over and over again. He was stuck.
- 1:07:22Speaker 20: So you had to find a way out, and he
- 1:07:24Speaker 20: found an inadequate way out, and I just don't see
- 1:07:28Speaker 20: what the realistic alternative is.
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: What do you think comes first. I'll let you go here.
- 1:07:32Speaker 1: The Iran War ends, well, the Yankees win a baseball game.
- 1:07:38Speaker 20: Welcome to being a Yankee. Van said. This is part
- 1:07:41Speaker 20: of the team's identity last four or five years, the
- 1:07:43Speaker 20: swoon in June or July. You know, we'll eventually win
- 1:07:46Speaker 20: a game again. But you know, there is a scenario
- 1:07:48Speaker 20: where this team is It's just not as good as
- 1:07:50Speaker 20: it seemed it was at the beginning of the year.
- 1:07:53Speaker 20: You know, I Judge doesn't come back. It's a catastrophe,
- 1:07:55Speaker 20: you know, and the whole thank's over and I love
- 1:07:58Speaker 20: Ben Rice. Anybody's regressed towards the means. Maybe Paul Goldschmid again.
- 1:08:02Speaker 20: You know, it is kind of giving out as the
- 1:08:04Speaker 20: month set up in the calendar. You know, Austin Wells
- 1:08:07Speaker 20: I love, but apparently it's not a major league hitter.
- 1:08:09Speaker 20: So it's bad. I mean, the last seven games we
- 1:08:12Speaker 20: were averaging two runs a game and four hits and
- 1:08:15Speaker 20: what was it yesterday? I think we got seven hits.
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: Yeah, And on top of that, what is going on
- 1:08:20Speaker 1: with Cam He can't pitch the last couple of games.
- 1:08:24Speaker 20: Yeah, well you know when that happens, he kind of worried.
- 1:08:27Speaker 13: He really hurt.
- 1:08:28Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:08:28Speaker 20: Is there something going on there? Or is he also
- 1:08:30Speaker 20: regressing towards the means?
- 1:08:31Speaker 16: So we'll see.
- 1:08:32Speaker 20: It's a long season. It's a long season. We can
- 1:08:35Speaker 20: take at least some enjoyment. If you're a Mets hater,
- 1:08:37Speaker 20: at which you are now said in the Moon Soda
- 1:08:40Speaker 20: playing that ball into a little league, calm run place.
- 1:08:43Speaker 20: That made my whole week.

- 1:09:04Speaker 1: show on Sit and Friends in the Morning.
- 1:09:06Speaker 2: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
- 1:09:10Speaker 2: Podcast Network.
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: Thank you to Johnny Tobacco to send me a very
- 1:09:14Speaker 1: nice text, call me the goat, said Stern Daimus for
- 1:09:18Speaker 1: the years ago. But now you're the goat with the
- 1:09:20Speaker 1: Hall of Fame induction coming up. Thank you for that, Johnny.
- 1:09:24Speaker 1: We've got two great guests coming up in a row.
- 1:09:26Speaker 1: Lots of activity around the NBA. Mitchell Robinson very popular.
- 1:09:30Speaker 1: Nickobaker the last couple of years was on our team.
- 1:09:33Speaker 1: We just won the championship. He's gone. Mitchell Robinson is
- 1:09:37Speaker 1: no longer a Nick. We'll talk to Brian Geltzaler about
- 1:09:40Speaker 1: all the moves around the NBA. But coming up next,
- 1:09:43Speaker 1: a lot of folks in this city, specifically cops and
- 1:09:47Speaker 1: Bayat fighters, are very upset with this new budget put
- 1:09:51Speaker 1: out yesterday by Mom Donnie and men in Why because
- 1:09:56Speaker 1: once again Mom Donnie, at the last second wiped out
- 1:10:01Speaker 1: the opportunity to add more police to a force that
- 1:10:06Speaker 1: at least some say are losing too many too soon.
- 1:10:11Speaker 1: He is once again congratulations the SBA President, My friend
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: Vincent Vallalan on a whole bunch of cops stuff. He
- 1:10:20Speaker 1: joins us next, Sid and.
- 1:10:23Speaker 2: Friends in the morning on the Red Apple podcast Network.
- 1:10:28Speaker 1: Our great city councilman out of Staten Island, Frank Morano.
- 1:10:32Speaker 13: The mayor's behavior. Forget about spending more money than most
- 1:10:35Speaker 13: countries spend. The mayor's behavior, and just in terms of
- 1:10:39Speaker 13: being an honest broker, it's abominable. If you have spending
- 1:10:42Speaker 13: one hundred and twenty six billion dollars and still can't
- 1:10:45Speaker 13: find room for more cops or a fifth firefighter. I
- 1:10:48Speaker 13: think your priorities are are way out of order. This
- 1:10:51Speaker 13: budget spends like there's no tomorrow, and unfortunately the taxpayers
- 1:10:56Speaker 13: still have to live in tomorrow and to pay the
- 1:10:58Speaker 13: bill for a lot of this non since next year
- 1:11:00Speaker 13: in the year after that, the city is spending like
- 1:11:03Speaker 13: it won the lottery and the budget got bigger, but
- 1:11:07Speaker 13: we didn't get any safer. I mean, think about how
- 1:11:10Speaker 13: much larger this budget has been just last year ten
- 1:11:13Speaker 13: billion dollars. Did we get ten billion dollars more worth
- 1:11:17Speaker 13: of services of public safety or not?
- 1:11:20Speaker 1: Frank Morano. So let me get to Vincent Vallalong, who
- 1:11:23Speaker 1: remains the president of the Sergeants Benelevant Association. He elected
- 1:11:29Speaker 1: again to be the president, So congratulations, he's a great guy,
- 1:11:32Speaker 1: great cop. Congratulations then, and something tells me you agree
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: with Frank Morano that at the very best, at the
- 1:11:40Speaker 1: very best, this mayor is a liar.
- 1:11:44Speaker 14: Yes, he's more than a liar. He's he's a deceitful individual. Wow,
- 1:11:51Speaker 14: it's and it seems as if that he's pulled the
- 1:11:53Speaker 14: rug over every out from everybody, every city council member
- 1:11:57Speaker 14: with regards to this budget, and if he did it
- 1:12:00Speaker 14: with the cops at the last minute, the real big
- 1:12:03Speaker 14: question should be right now is you know what else
- 1:12:06Speaker 14: is hidden inside this budget that they did not look at?
- 1:12:09Speaker 14: Where they asleep at the wheel when they were supposed
- 1:12:11Speaker 14: to be doing their jobs. And if they let him
- 1:12:14Speaker 14: do this, who is who he is? Considered technically a
- 1:12:17Speaker 14: neophyte in this position. You know, if they let if
- 1:12:20Speaker 14: the senior people let him do this, you know, I
- 1:12:23Speaker 14: hold them accountable. You know, every single one of them.
- 1:12:27Speaker 14: There are ones that are standing up and screaming and yelling,
- 1:12:29Speaker 14: and that's all well and fine. But what this budget
- 1:12:32Speaker 14: did was make every single New Yorker a lot less safe.
- 1:12:37Speaker 1: I mean when you say a lot less safe, because
- 1:12:40Speaker 1: I do talk to Jessica's you know, Tish. He's a
- 1:12:42Speaker 1: good find, very good fun. We're very close. You know
- 1:12:45Speaker 1: I'm fighting that one, right, No, I know you're not.
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: But when Eric Adams left, there was like thirty one
- 1:12:50Speaker 1: thousand cops. Eric Adams did not go out of his
- 1:12:54Speaker 1: way to hire more cops. You understand that now, unless
- 1:12:57Speaker 1: somebody is lying to me, I believe right now there's
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: about thirty four thousand, but I'm also aware not about
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: three or four thousand are about to walk out, And
- 1:13:06Speaker 1: I have no idea how many are going to walk in.
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: I get I get all that. But in this budget,
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: as far as I know, Vince, they're only going to
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: add five hundred eighty cops, not five thousand, not ten thousand,
- 1:13:20Speaker 1: five hundred eighty. I know they wanted a fifth firefighter
- 1:13:23Speaker 1: as well. Now I'm not okay, not dting one cop,
- 1:13:26Speaker 1: not adting one, let alone almost six hundred, but it
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: was five hundred eighty roten, not five thousand.
- 1:13:35Speaker 14: If you do not promote, if you do not make
- 1:13:37Speaker 14: police officers, you cannot make supervisors. And when all of
- 1:13:41Speaker 14: the top minds of this job are leaving retirement, who
- 1:13:46Speaker 14: is to hand down that knowledge to the younger guys.
- 1:13:48Speaker 14: You are now a year behind in hiring people, which
- 1:13:52Speaker 14: is in essence what it is that's going to be done.
- 1:13:55Speaker 14: Five eighty was really a minimal number. I mean, they
- 1:13:57Speaker 14: needed a lot more than that. Everybody knows that we
- 1:13:59Speaker 14: can thirty four thousand, we gonna say thirty five thousand,
- 1:14:02Speaker 14: But the reality of it is, we need boots on
- 1:14:06Speaker 14: the ground. We need the cops. The cops are burning
- 1:14:09Speaker 14: the candle at both ends. They are exhausted, they're well,
- 1:14:13Speaker 14: they're doing these extended tours, you know. And yet listen,
- 1:14:16Speaker 14: that's part of our job. And I get it, and
- 1:14:17Speaker 14: I'm not crying about that. But where's the reinforcements. When
- 1:14:21Speaker 14: are they coming? Because you know what they're not. And
- 1:14:25Speaker 14: he ran on defunding the police. That is what it
- 1:14:28Speaker 14: is he is doing. You can give me all the
- 1:14:30Speaker 14: political bs you want, okay, but that is exactly what
- 1:14:33Speaker 14: this is here. And he told everybody he was putting
- 1:14:36Speaker 14: the minimum amount of police officers in and then totally
- 1:14:39Speaker 14: stabbed every single one of them in the back and
- 1:14:42Speaker 14: pulled it out of the budget.
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: He did mean and you know what he did, Ben says,
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: son of a bitch, because you don't nobody hates this
- 1:14:47Speaker 1: guy more than I do, having your right dead with me.
- 1:14:49Speaker 13: But he did it.
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: According to Frank and others, like Midnight a couple of
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: nights ago, why did he do that? Because at that
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: point it was too late, it was too late of
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: the city council members to come back and do something
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: about it.
- 1:15:03Speaker 14: So so I don't have I don't have a personal
- 1:15:06Speaker 14: problem with with the speaker. Okay, so I just want
- 1:15:09Speaker 14: to get that out there right away.
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: But well, you guys, well you even you even have
- 1:15:12Speaker 1: correct me if I'm You're on the show a couple
- 1:15:14Speaker 1: of months ago. You even at one point Levy a
- 1:15:16Speaker 1: lawsuit against Julie men and right.
- 1:15:18Speaker 14: Well, I filed an ethics complaint, right right, right, So,
- 1:15:22Speaker 14: but but you know, if I have to be the
- 1:15:25Speaker 14: watchdog and I'm a I'm a cop, you know what
- 1:15:27Speaker 14: is everybody else doing when they're watching all of this
- 1:15:30Speaker 14: stuff happen. You know, they're going after the likes of
- 1:15:33Speaker 14: of of of Vicki Paladino, right and for and but
- 1:15:37Speaker 14: but they're they're held to a different standard. You know,
- 1:15:40Speaker 14: she's in that position to be the counter to the mayor.
- 1:15:45Speaker 14: And as far as I'm concerned, she even if she
- 1:15:48Speaker 14: got it the last minute, she could have she could
- 1:15:50Speaker 14: have paused this. They didn't have to have that budget
- 1:15:52Speaker 14: done immediately. She could have paused it and said, you
- 1:15:55Speaker 14: know what, Nope, we're not taking this to a vote.
- 1:15:56Speaker 14: You know, we're we're gonna we're gonna bring everybody back
- 1:15:58Speaker 14: in and we're going to look through this whole entire budget.
- 1:16:01Speaker 14: She's the checks and balances, and she did not do
- 1:16:03Speaker 14: her job, is the way I see it.
- 1:16:05Speaker 1: So you're placing blame on Julie Mennon on this.
- 1:16:09Speaker 14: I'm placing blame on the whole city council. I'm not
- 1:16:11Speaker 14: placing blame on one individual. But she is. She's the
- 1:16:14Speaker 14: sheriff in town. She's supposed to be the one that's
- 1:16:16Speaker 14: supposed to keep everybody in line.
- 1:16:18Speaker 1: So Phinny tell me this, how many cops are set
- 1:16:20Speaker 1: to walk out this year? And some of these guys
- 1:16:23Speaker 1: cut me if I'm wrong. It's gotten so bad in
- 1:16:25Speaker 1: this city. We all know you're not making millions, okay,
- 1:16:29Speaker 1: and you get no respect from the mayor and the
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: rest of these lunatics in and around him, and about
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: forty five of the fifty one council members don't give
- 1:16:38Speaker 1: a ratsass about you guys. So the cops know it.
- 1:16:42Speaker 1: So a lot of these guys are walking out even before,
- 1:16:45Speaker 1: even before they get their pensions. How many cops do
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: you expect to walk out by the end of the year.
- 1:16:50Speaker 14: I think I can give you what it is in
- 1:16:52Speaker 14: my rank, okay. And just an example, this month, we
- 1:16:56Speaker 14: had thirty five people promoted to sergeant. You had twenty
- 1:16:59Speaker 14: people promoted to lieutenant. Now this is basic math. That
- 1:17:02Speaker 14: leaves me with fifteen extra supervisors for the whole entire city.
- 1:17:06Speaker 14: And then you had eighty one sergeants right now in
- 1:17:09Speaker 14: rank that filed for retirement. That leaves us at a
- 1:17:12Speaker 14: negative sixty six.
- 1:17:14Speaker 12: Wow.
- 1:17:14Speaker 14: Where are you making those numbers up within this next
- 1:17:17Speaker 14: year where you want to put basically a hiring freeze
- 1:17:19Speaker 14: on everybody?
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: Wow?
- 1:17:22Speaker 14: That and sid that comes at a cost to the
- 1:17:25Speaker 14: citizens of this of this city. You know, the people,
- 1:17:29Speaker 14: the people that are putting money into the city are
- 1:17:31Speaker 14: expecting a product and they're not getting that product. You
- 1:17:34Speaker 14: can give away all the free stuff you want, you know,
- 1:17:36Speaker 14: and you could. You could put a freeze on housing
- 1:17:38Speaker 14: and everything else, but at the end of the day,
- 1:17:40Speaker 14: you can't put a freeze on violent crimes.
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: Tell me about the morale with the sergeants. I don't
- 1:17:46Speaker 1: expect you to tell me in the morale for the
- 1:17:48Speaker 1: whole police department. I'll talk to Jessica about that, and
- 1:17:50Speaker 1: I'll talk to Scott Monroe about the detectives. But in
- 1:17:53Speaker 1: terms of the sergeants, everybody I talk to talk to
- 1:17:56Speaker 1: says to me the morale with the police is way down,
- 1:18:00Speaker 1: way down, every rank, every file, just about every cop
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: in the city not exactly walking around feeling great. What
- 1:18:09Speaker 1: is the truth about them?
- 1:18:10Speaker 14: Raw? With your people, you have a lot, you have
- 1:18:13Speaker 14: a lot more work being dumped on these guys. You
- 1:18:15Speaker 14: have a desk. Desk officers just as an example, have
- 1:18:19Speaker 14: absolutely more responsibility, more more a paper in order to
- 1:18:22Speaker 14: push across the desk, you know, and less people to
- 1:18:25Speaker 14: help them out to do it. So, how do you
- 1:18:27Speaker 14: think morale is going to be when you're doing some
- 1:18:29Speaker 14: somewhere between ten hour twelve hours tour. You know, you're exhausted,
- 1:18:33Speaker 14: you're doing them day after day, and then you know
- 1:18:35Speaker 14: you're expected to do more work and then someone's going
- 1:18:38Speaker 14: to come in and they're going to they're actually going
- 1:18:39Speaker 14: to give you a command discipline, which is like a
- 1:18:42Speaker 14: complaint on you know, because you didn't do your job.
- 1:18:45Speaker 14: You know, there's no room forever, it seems, you know.
- 1:18:48Speaker 14: And the littlest thing that happens, these guys are afraid
- 1:18:50Speaker 14: that they're going to get you the transfer, they're gonna
- 1:18:52Speaker 14: get in trouble.
- 1:18:53Speaker 1: And we saw that a couple of months ago with
- 1:18:56Speaker 1: that one cop was being critical of the Democrats, and
- 1:19:00Speaker 1: he got transferred like that night, I think. And then
- 1:19:03Speaker 1: what's going on with Eric Duran? What's the lightest with that?
- 1:19:07Speaker 14: I spoke with him the other day. His spirits are good.
- 1:19:11Speaker 14: We've we've been raising money for his legal defense still
- 1:19:15Speaker 14: and you know, listen, author I Donalds is doing a
- 1:19:17Speaker 14: great job with him. You know, the best thing to
- 1:19:20Speaker 14: do is just keep Eric's spirits up, you know, until
- 1:19:23Speaker 14: the trial's going along. I mean not the trial, but
- 1:19:24Speaker 14: they're they're preparing their their appeal, and until that happens,
- 1:19:28Speaker 14: you know, we won't have a decision. But you know,
- 1:19:29Speaker 14: he's home with his family and he's having you know,
- 1:19:31Speaker 14: he's enjoying the time with them. You know, it's very precious.
- 1:19:33Speaker 1: Then, Vincent Valalang is the SPA president and all transparency.
- 1:19:38Speaker 1: He's also a good friend of mine. Then tell me
- 1:19:41Speaker 1: how you get young kids to want to be cops
- 1:19:46Speaker 1: in this city, because at least on this show, almost
- 1:19:49Speaker 1: every conversation is bad. It's bad. You know, the mayor
- 1:19:53Speaker 1: hates us and hate you guys, and plenty of other
- 1:19:57Speaker 1: officials hate you as well. And you're down on the
- 1:20:00Speaker 1: city council speaker, and you know, it just doesn't seem
- 1:20:03Speaker 1: like it's a very attractive job these days. How do you, guys,
- 1:20:07Speaker 1: the veterans who have lived and breathed this job your
- 1:20:11Speaker 1: whole lives, how do you guys get young kids motivated
- 1:20:15Speaker 1: to want this job.
- 1:20:18Speaker 14: You tell them about the experiences that you had. You
- 1:20:22Speaker 14: need to show them that there is a light at
- 1:20:24Speaker 14: the end of the tunnel with this and what you're
- 1:20:26Speaker 14: doing is actually is actually good for the people that
- 1:20:30Speaker 14: you protect day in.
- 1:20:31Speaker 11: And day out.
- 1:20:31Speaker 14: I know that's you know, it seems a little like
- 1:20:33Speaker 14: a cliche, but you know, I didn't have to grab
- 1:20:36Speaker 14: my son by the ear and make him take this job.
- 1:20:39Speaker 14: I have four kids. I could one of them became
- 1:20:41Speaker 14: a cop, you know. And you know, in today's day
- 1:20:44Speaker 14: and age, everyone says, oh, well, you know, you know
- 1:20:46Speaker 14: why you're putting them in this job? You don't no
- 1:20:48Speaker 14: one wants it. Well, there's a problem with that when
- 1:20:50Speaker 14: no one wants it. You know, when you're bringing young
- 1:20:53Speaker 14: kids into a job and making them work tireless hours
- 1:20:56Speaker 14: over and over again, and there is not enough people
- 1:20:58Speaker 14: to handle these jobs, of course you're going to be
- 1:21:01Speaker 14: down on what it is you do. But this is
- 1:21:03Speaker 14: the greatest city in the world. You know, it should
- 1:21:06Speaker 14: sell itself. We shouldn't be having these politicians that create
- 1:21:09Speaker 14: like this, this gloom and doom or you know that
- 1:21:13Speaker 14: they force feed their politics down your throat. How do
- 1:21:15Speaker 14: you get them to take the job? You know what, again,
- 1:21:17Speaker 14: you have to tell them it is really it's a
- 1:21:21Speaker 14: great job to raise a family with. You know, at
- 1:21:24Speaker 14: the end of the day you get to you know,
- 1:21:26Speaker 14: it's it's enough money for you to put your kids
- 1:21:28Speaker 14: through school. Yes, you have to sometimes take a second job,
- 1:21:31Speaker 14: but you know that's that's reality. That's that's what life is.
- 1:21:34Speaker 14: And but I will tell you this before I don't
- 1:21:36Speaker 14: before we go off at some point. Congratulations on your
- 1:21:39Speaker 14: Hall of fame. Thank you, and I also set my
- 1:21:42Speaker 14: temperature to sixty three.
- 1:21:43Speaker 1: Ah, good for you. The mayor of seventy eight degrees?
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: What is he nuts last one? I remember when he
- 1:21:50Speaker 1: won and you are writing op eds and coming into
- 1:21:52Speaker 1: the studio with me, and you were hesitant to really
- 1:21:56Speaker 1: kill them, you know you, I know you hated them,
- 1:21:58Speaker 1: but maybe I shouldn't say that, but that's how I felt.
- 1:22:02Speaker 1: But you're wanting to give the guy a chance. Do
- 1:22:05Speaker 1: you realize it's only been seven months, seven months of
- 1:22:10Speaker 1: a four year term and he's already campaigning and planning
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: for the next four And I'm sorry, but Dave Portnoy
- 1:22:18Speaker 1: and Curtis Sliwall, they're not beating Mamdani, so it looks
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: like he maybe you should win to win again seven months.
- 1:22:26Speaker 1: Is he as bad? Not as bad, worse than you
- 1:22:30Speaker 1: thought when he won back in January.
- 1:22:32Speaker 14: There is nothing that sells be on him being a
- 1:22:36Speaker 14: true leader of the city. You can't balance a budget.
- 1:22:39Speaker 14: When you do balance a budget, it's supposed to be
- 1:22:41Speaker 14: a correcting past spending and moving forward, not dumping, not
- 1:22:47Speaker 14: raising money as someplace else, or getting getting freebies from
- 1:22:49Speaker 14: a governor and then turning that over and giving them
- 1:22:52Speaker 14: out to people who bring nothing back into the tax space.
- 1:22:55Speaker 14: You know, do I have any faith in him? I'd
- 1:22:57Speaker 14: like to, but you're seven months in, I have absolutely none.
- 1:23:03Speaker 1: And in terms of the way he's treated the comps,
- 1:23:05Speaker 1: like you said he campaigned on defunding the police, he's
- 1:23:07Speaker 1: really doing that.
- 1:23:08Speaker 14: He really is, right, it's my understanding. You know, he's
- 1:23:13Speaker 14: a nice guy when he talked to him, but you
- 1:23:14Speaker 14: know I haven't told to him seven months in. He
- 1:23:16Speaker 14: doesn't want he doesn't really care about what the opinion
- 1:23:18Speaker 14: is of the people who are actually doing this job
- 1:23:20Speaker 14: day in and day out. So how do I have
- 1:23:22Speaker 14: any respects for someone who doesn't care what it is
- 1:23:24Speaker 14: that I actually do. But he's making decisions on.
- 1:23:27Speaker 1: What it is you don't. That's the bottom line, Vinny.
- 1:23:29Speaker 1: I love your congratulations on again being the president of
- 1:23:33Speaker 1: the SBA. Couldn't think of a better guy for that job.
- 1:23:36Speaker 1: You know, an amazing man, a great cop. And New
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: Yorkers love you. They don't love Mom Donnay. And know
- 1:23:41Speaker 1: we won. I know he won, but trust me what
- 1:23:43Speaker 1: I tell you, the majority of New Yorkers don't love
- 1:23:45Speaker 1: this guy, but they love you. Thank you, Vinny, Thanks sir,
- 1:23:48Speaker 1: God bless you. Vincent Valalog right there, the president of
- 1:23:52Speaker 1: the SBA, and he's pissed, and he should be pissed.
- 1:23:55Speaker 1: He's pissed at Julie Mennin, he's pissed at the City Council,
- 1:23:59Speaker 1: he's pissed at Mom. Donny. I'm sure he's pissed out
- 1:24:01Speaker 1: a couple of big wigs in the NYPD as well,
- 1:24:04Speaker 1: because yes, in this one hundred and twenty six billion
- 1:24:08Speaker 1: dollar budget, one hundred and twenty six billion dollar budget.
- 1:24:14Speaker 1: He couldn't find a way to add one cop, not
- 1:24:19Speaker 1: one or that fifth firefighter. Disgraceful. Shame on you, mister mayor.
- 1:24:26Speaker 1: Shame on you, mister mayor.
- 1:24:29Speaker 2: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
- 1:24:33Speaker 2: podcast network.
- 1:24:35Speaker 1: So these cops like Vadlang just talked about, and John
- 1:24:38Speaker 1: Show knows as well, they're working doubles. Who knows, maybe triples,
- 1:24:44Speaker 1: and the mayor just delayed their holiday pay. He is
- 1:24:48Speaker 1: such a piece of garbage. He's garbage. He's a disgusting
- 1:24:54Speaker 1: human being. I hate his guts, but I do like
- 1:24:58Speaker 1: Brian Goeltzoler like by every years he's on the NBA
- 1:25:03Speaker 1: channel on Sirius XM and will take a little break
- 1:25:06Speaker 1: from all the political self talk MBA with my friend Brian. Brian,
- 1:25:11Speaker 1: Good morning, buddy. How are you?
- 1:25:13Speaker 14: I'm great? Sid.
- 1:25:14Speaker 11: How you doing, my man?
- 1:25:15Speaker 1: I'm doing well. So Stephen A. Smith got a little
- 1:25:18Speaker 1: hot water because he talked about the Lakers now basically
- 1:25:23Speaker 1: being a white team. Not their three best players are
- 1:25:26Speaker 1: all white because Lebron James has decided not to come back.
- 1:25:30Speaker 1: And he's right. They got Luka doncik, he's white. They
- 1:25:33Speaker 1: got Austin Reeves. He's white. So three white guys have
- 1:25:36Speaker 1: become the base of the Lakers. People think you can't
- 1:25:39Speaker 1: win in the NBA. If that's the case, could be Bonnie,
- 1:25:43Speaker 1: could be not. I don't know, but Lebron James looks
- 1:25:45Speaker 1: like Golden State, Miami or Cleveland. Do you have a pick?
- 1:25:52Speaker 14: You know?
- 1:25:52Speaker 11: I think it's gonna be Golden State, but I don't
- 1:25:55Speaker 11: know how prominent Miami is in this mixed sid I
- 1:25:58Speaker 11: the vibes on g and then what I'm hearing is
- 1:26:01Speaker 11: that it's either going to be.
- 1:26:02Speaker 13: Golden State or Cleveland.
- 1:26:04Speaker 11: Interesting thing with both of those teams. In the offseason,
- 1:26:07Speaker 11: Draymond Green opted out of the last year of his contract.
- 1:26:11Speaker 11: He is a Clutch Sports client, which is obviously Rich
- 1:26:15Speaker 11: Paul and Lebron's firm, and the whole idea there is
- 1:26:19Speaker 11: to free up enough money to give Lebron something to
- 1:26:23Speaker 11: entice him to come there. And money's not going to
- 1:26:25Speaker 11: be a huge part of this, and there's not gonna
- 1:26:26Speaker 11: be huge money in this for Lebron. This is about
- 1:26:29Speaker 11: going somewhere where he's got a chance to win and
- 1:26:32Speaker 11: chance to enjoy finishing his career. So Draymond Green's done that,
- 1:26:36Speaker 11: and then James Harden did the same thing in Cleveland.
- 1:26:39Speaker 11: He declined his player option and his idea is to
- 1:26:42Speaker 11: get more years added on at less money per year,
- 1:26:46Speaker 11: allowing the Casts to be able to fit Lebron in.
- 1:26:48Speaker 11: So you had both of those moves there. The problem
- 1:26:50Speaker 11: with Miami is Miami is there. They're cacked at the
- 1:26:54Speaker 11: first Apron because of his Giannis trade and they just
- 1:26:57Speaker 11: don't have a lot of room for him. Now, again,
- 1:26:59Speaker 11: money's not gonna be prominent in all of this, but
- 1:27:01Speaker 11: I do think Lebron going somewhere with people he wants
- 1:27:04Speaker 11: to be around and spend time with. I know Lebron
- 1:27:07Speaker 11: is I spent a lot of time in October and
- 1:27:10Speaker 11: Cleveland with that organization of full six hours one day.
- 1:27:14Speaker 13: I know this. They're very fond of Lebron. James personally
- 1:27:17Speaker 13: no listen to of course, love to have him back.
- 1:27:20Speaker 11: Let's hold to Lebron, Curry, Draymond, those those are his buddies.
- 1:27:24Speaker 13: You have a blast doing that. So I think it's
- 1:27:25Speaker 13: gonna be one of those two teams.
- 1:27:27Speaker 1: All right, there you go, He says, either Golden State
- 1:27:29Speaker 1: or Cleveland. Brian geltzaler On Lebron James. The Knicks, we
- 1:27:34Speaker 1: said goodbye yesterday to one of the more popular players,
- 1:27:36Speaker 1: not even a starter, but he's been there for so
- 1:27:38Speaker 1: many years and came up big, even a moment's coming
- 1:27:41Speaker 1: off the bench in this championship run. Mitchell Robinson is gone.
- 1:27:46Speaker 1: But the funny part is not only is Mitchell Robinson gone,
- 1:27:50Speaker 1: but he goes to the nemesis, the Boston Celtics.
- 1:27:55Speaker 11: Listen, it's a it's a Knicks did not have a
- 1:27:57Speaker 11: wonderful morning yesterday morning in trying to keep this thing
- 1:28:01Speaker 11: together and give themselves a backup center because ultimately James
- 1:28:06Speaker 11: Dolan doesn't want to go into the second apron. Now
- 1:28:08Speaker 11: what does that mean.
- 1:28:09Speaker 13: It essentially means Adam Dolan doesn't care about paying the
- 1:28:12Speaker 13: luxury tax money they print money at MSG said, you
- 1:28:15Speaker 13: know that the thing for Jim Dolan that bothers him
- 1:28:18Speaker 13: here is the roster restrictions and the lack of flexibility
- 1:28:21Speaker 13: when you go into the second apron. So the Knicks
- 1:28:24Speaker 13: did make a decision that they were not going to
- 1:28:26Speaker 13: bring back Mitchell Robinson. And with that said, I don't
- 1:28:29Speaker 13: mean they thought he was going to do Monta Celtics.
- 1:28:31Speaker 13: So that wasn't necessarily an ideal scenario the Knicks there.
- 1:28:35Speaker 13: But the other thing that happened quietly is listen, we
- 1:28:38Speaker 13: saw Ariel Huckporty play a little bit in the finals.
- 1:28:41Speaker 11: And it was bad.
- 1:28:42Speaker 13: And to me, I thought though he was the best
- 1:28:45Speaker 13: choice to promote to replace Mitchell Robinson. See if that works,
- 1:28:49Speaker 13: especially if we weren't going to go into the second apron,
- 1:28:51Speaker 13: come to the trade deadline, you got to get a
- 1:28:53Speaker 13: backup center. You can huck Porty. The Knicks they declined
- 1:28:57Speaker 13: his option thinking they could bring him back on a
- 1:28:59Speaker 13: cheaper number because again the Knicks margins with the second
- 1:29:02Speaker 13: apron or slim and the Sixers swooped in and grabbed
- 1:29:05Speaker 13: them at a little bit of a number above.
- 1:29:07Speaker 11: Yeah, and now the knickser are in a little bit
- 1:29:09Speaker 11: of a pickle trying to find a backup center. May
- 1:29:12Speaker 11: have to make a trade to do that because it's
- 1:29:14Speaker 11: a vital spot for them.
- 1:29:16Speaker 1: And how this team is constructed and had his team plays,
- 1:29:20Speaker 1: especially with Cat, he always goes into the foul trouble
- 1:29:23Speaker 1: early on. Need some big bodies on the court. And
- 1:29:25Speaker 1: you mentioned Porti going to Philadelphia, and listen, I know
- 1:29:28Speaker 1: we keep talking up Philly every year Embiid and Maxi.
- 1:29:31Speaker 1: They brought in Harding, they brought in Paul George. This
- 1:29:35Speaker 1: is a completely different animal. They get Jalen Brown from
- 1:29:40Speaker 1: the Boston Celtics, and I'm sorry, but if you can
- 1:29:43Speaker 1: go to war with Embiid, Jalen Brown, Maxie, They've got
- 1:29:48Speaker 1: other good players on that basketball team. I think this
- 1:29:51Speaker 1: may finally be the year with the seventy six ers,
- 1:29:54Speaker 1: all le jit.
- 1:29:57Speaker 13: Here's what I mean. Listen, this was a home run
- 1:29:59Speaker 13: deal Philadelphia seventy six Ers. What I love about it
- 1:30:03Speaker 13: is Jaylen Brown is the kind of lead guy to
- 1:30:06Speaker 13: go at Esse Maxi that makes them Embeid proof. You know,
- 1:30:10Speaker 13: MV listen, MB you know it's gonna happen. It's gonna
- 1:30:12Speaker 13: get hurt at the wrong time. He always does. And
- 1:30:15Speaker 13: and listen, I'm not killing the guy. He's a wonderful
- 1:30:18Speaker 13: player when he's on the floor. He's just not on
- 1:30:19Speaker 13: the floor all that much. And Philly's in a bad
- 1:30:22Speaker 13: situation with him contract wise, but Da've essentially built a
- 1:30:25Speaker 13: team that makes his contract bravy. This backcourt of Terse
- 1:30:29Speaker 13: Maxi and DJ Edgecombe is fantastic. And then you look
- 1:30:33Speaker 13: at putting Jalen Brown in that mix, you will beat
- 1:30:36Speaker 13: a lot of teams without Joellenpide on the floor. And
- 1:30:38Speaker 13: by the way, they got this a nice backup center
- 1:30:40Speaker 13: in Ariel Hofport right that role there, Yes, that that
- 1:30:45Speaker 13: that'll work nicely for them too. They signed Dean Wade
- 1:30:48Speaker 13: yesterday morning in free agency, who's a very good defensive player,
- 1:30:52Speaker 13: didn't make a lot of threes for the Cavs in
- 1:30:53Speaker 13: the playoffs, but as the potential to be a very
- 1:30:56Speaker 13: good three point shooter, a six foot ten wing. Philly
- 1:30:59Speaker 13: is tough man. Philly is gonna be really, really good.
- 1:31:02Speaker 13: And listen, it's very interesting because we were looking at
- 1:31:04Speaker 13: the Celtics with Tatum and Brown thinking they could be
- 1:31:07Speaker 13: a challenge once again to the Knicks next year. Philly's
- 1:31:10Speaker 13: gonna be a much bigger challenge than they are.
- 1:31:12Speaker 1: That's what I told you all this morning. He disagreed
- 1:31:14Speaker 1: with me. I told you justin Philly's gonna be the
- 1:31:16Speaker 1: bigger challenge. Ol Well, Boston again. Tatum comes back healthy
- 1:31:20Speaker 1: this year. He is not really healthy most of the year.
- 1:31:22Speaker 1: Last year. They did add Mitchell Robinson. I'm not sure
- 1:31:26Speaker 1: what poor George has left, but you know, Obviously, when
- 1:31:28Speaker 1: you lose Brown, you don't win Andy Robinson and George
- 1:31:32Speaker 1: but a healthy Jason Tatum White is still there. They
- 1:31:36Speaker 1: could still be very very good.
- 1:31:38Speaker 13: I agree, said and I think people like people are
- 1:31:41Speaker 13: piling on the Celtics this morning. The Celtics put themselves
- 1:31:44Speaker 13: in a very very bad.
- 1:31:46Speaker 11: Spot by not being willing to pony up enough in
- 1:31:49Speaker 11: these Giannis talks, and once the fact that they floated
- 1:31:51Speaker 11: Jalen Brown publicly in a Giannis deal. This was after
- 1:31:54Speaker 11: Jylen Brown won in this crazy Twitch stream as soon
- 1:31:57Speaker 11: as their season ended and kind of turned everybody off
- 1:32:00Speaker 11: in Boston. Then you get the analytics community and said,
- 1:32:03Speaker 11: I don't know if you saw what happened over the
- 1:32:05Speaker 11: weekend on x but Bobby Marks, ESPN's front office insider,
- 1:32:09Speaker 11: who's a fantastic analyst in terms of the NBA, does
- 1:32:13Speaker 11: a terrific job. Came on My show with me and
- 1:32:15Speaker 11: Sam Mitchell, and Bobby made a comment that he spoke
- 1:32:18Speaker 11: to an analytics guy in one of the front offices
- 1:32:20Speaker 11: of the league who said that Jalen Brown, from an
- 1:32:22Speaker 11: analytics standpoint, is a seventh best player on a team.
- 1:32:26Speaker 11: And again, the numbers on the spreadsheet don't make Jaylen
- 1:32:29Speaker 11: Brown look wonderful. We don't play the game on the spreadsheet.
- 1:32:32Speaker 11: We play it on the basketball court. The guy is
- 1:32:34Speaker 11: a killer and he matches up great with people. But
- 1:32:37Speaker 11: there's a lot of analytics guys that look at those
- 1:32:39Speaker 11: numbers and want to stay away that and kind and
- 1:32:42Speaker 11: then Brown went at Bobby Marx on Twitter in a
- 1:32:46Speaker 11: very aggressive way, and that kind of stuff turned teams off.
- 1:32:49Speaker 11: I know that for a fact, is that you know
- 1:32:50Speaker 11: what will exactly what we bringing into our program with
- 1:32:53Speaker 11: this guy, because again, he had a great year with Boston,
- 1:32:56Speaker 11: everything should be happy. He didn't seem all he said
- 1:32:58Speaker 11: he had his most fun year, but doesn't seem all
- 1:33:00Speaker 11: that happy with the pups. So so you seek so
- 1:33:03Speaker 11: it philled. What Boston did here is they had a
- 1:33:06Speaker 11: rapidly shrinking market for Jalen Brown, and they figured, you
- 1:33:10Speaker 11: know what, we bring PG in. We've got some reinforcements
- 1:33:13Speaker 11: with Robinson here, We're keeping Derek White, we have some
- 1:33:16Speaker 11: young guys that we think can get better even if
- 1:33:18Speaker 11: we take a step back.
- 1:33:19Speaker 13: This year. We added valuable draft capital that we can
- 1:33:22Speaker 13: use with George's expiring contract to upgrade this team. Here's
- 1:33:25Speaker 13: the other point no one's making about the steel sid
- 1:33:27Speaker 13: All right, the Boston had this like alpha dog problem,
- 1:33:32Speaker 13: whose team is it? And it was always good to be.
- 1:33:34Speaker 11: Tatum's team, And then they had this surprising year last
- 1:33:37Speaker 11: year where Jalen Brown was an MVP candidate and had
- 1:33:40Speaker 11: this super year, and now all of a sudden, they
- 1:33:42Speaker 11: don't know whose team it is. They wanted to be
- 1:33:45Speaker 11: Jason Tatum's team, they didn't want it to be Jalen
- 1:33:47Speaker 11: Brown's team, and they were rightfully afraid of Jalen Brown
- 1:33:51Speaker 11: trying to hijack that.
- 1:33:53Speaker 13: And you think his value is bad. Now he comes
- 1:33:55Speaker 13: to training camp and stirs everything up, and him and
- 1:33:58Speaker 13: Tatum are not exactly cooking his p's and carrots.
- 1:34:01Speaker 11: And by the way, I don't think Tatum's right about
- 1:34:02Speaker 11: everything either. Jaylen Brown was, I know, for a fact,
- 1:34:05Speaker 11: not all that happy that Jason Tatum chose to not
- 1:34:08Speaker 11: play in Game seven of the Philly series in the
- 1:34:11Speaker 11: first round when maybe he could have. Now, Listen, Tatum
- 1:34:14Speaker 11: just came back with Achilles' injury. I understand that, but
- 1:34:17Speaker 11: there was definitely something there. You never heard Jason Tatum
- 1:34:19Speaker 11: once with all this stuff going on with Jaylen Brown going, hey,
- 1:34:22Speaker 11: keep my guy here.
- 1:34:23Speaker 13: I want them. So they're trying to avoid something here
- 1:34:26Speaker 13: and they took cents on the dollar to avoid it.
- 1:34:29Speaker 1: Yeah, kind of like Judge and Soda with the Yankees,
- 1:34:31Speaker 1: Toronto may be better. They bring back Kawhi Leonard. He
- 1:34:34Speaker 1: won a championship there a couple of years ago with
- 1:34:36Speaker 1: the former Nickobokers Quickly and Auj Barrett. But one more
- 1:34:38Speaker 1: on the Knicks will let you run, Brian, and that
- 1:34:41Speaker 1: is they did lose Mitchell Robinson to the Celtics, but
- 1:34:43Speaker 1: they kept for four years our assassin coming off the bench.
- 1:34:49Speaker 1: Landry's still here. Landry Shamits still here.
- 1:34:53Speaker 13: You know what, It's a super deal value wise for
- 1:34:57Speaker 13: the next six million dollars a year from what that
- 1:34:59Speaker 13: guy bring, He's gonna shoot forty percent from three and
- 1:35:02Speaker 13: became a good defensive player. That's an absolute bargain. And
- 1:35:05Speaker 13: the thing is for the Knicks, they don't need a
- 1:35:08Speaker 13: really big long wing off the bench because they have
- 1:35:11Speaker 13: long wings in the starting line. If an og Ananobi
- 1:35:13Speaker 13: and Michale bridges, so the wing may bring in could
- 1:35:15Speaker 13: be a little bit smaller. So Shamman is a perfect
- 1:35:18Speaker 13: fit for this team and Listen, they essentially prioritize Shammit
- 1:35:22Speaker 13: over huck Porty, and as long as they find a
- 1:35:24Speaker 13: way to fill the backup center spot, that should play
- 1:35:27Speaker 13: out okay and look good. Listen. I know Nick fans
- 1:35:31Speaker 13: would have loved if Jim, If Jim Dolan would have
- 1:35:33Speaker 13: gone into the second apron, I probably think for the
- 1:35:35Speaker 13: year they could have and not really handcuff themselves that much.
- 1:35:39Speaker 13: But also with the way these league rules are, I
- 1:35:42Speaker 13: understand why he didn't because of the restrictions. With all
- 1:35:45Speaker 13: that said, finding a way to stay under the second
- 1:35:47Speaker 13: apron and bring back, bring back Landrew Shammitt was a
- 1:35:50Speaker 13: very nice job by Leon Rose in that front office.
- 1:35:52Speaker 1: What are you hearing about Kelly Ubray possibly to the Knicks.
- 1:35:55Speaker 1: Did you hear that No.
- 1:35:57Speaker 11: Uber signed already with Indiana?
- 1:35:59Speaker 14: Yes?
- 1:35:59Speaker 1: Oh he did? Okay, that was yesterday. Okay, there you
- 1:36:01Speaker 1: have it.
- 1:36:01Speaker 13: Do you deal with Indiana yesterday?
- 1:36:03Speaker 14: Yeah?
- 1:36:03Speaker 13: I mean sid right now? These deals are flying in
- 1:36:06Speaker 13: fast and furious. It's very very fluid in the NBA
- 1:36:09Speaker 13: this time of year.
- 1:36:09Speaker 1: I love it. That's why you're going to be back
- 1:36:11Speaker 1: again next week and maybe Lebron will decide sooner than later.
- 1:36:14Speaker 1: I think he wants to. So this was a great
- 1:36:16Speaker 1: job today. Brian Geltzala will do it again next week.
- 1:36:19Speaker 1: Serious XM NBA Radio. Great NBA guy, terrific guy as well,

- 1:36:35Speaker 1: to do.
- 1:36:36Speaker 2: SID and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
- 1:36:40Speaker 2: Podcast Network.
- 1:36:42Speaker 1: I don't think I'm gonna do it. Everybody don't, but
- 1:36:43Speaker 1: you know a lot of people jumping in. Michael Roppaport
- 1:36:45Speaker 1: wants to run. And we've heard who else. I guess
- 1:36:49Speaker 1: Lezlie Soovetski, he talked about it, and maybe Jessica Tish.
- 1:36:52Speaker 1: I don't know. But Bruce Blateman was on with Stuart
- 1:36:55Speaker 1: Varney on Fox News yesterday, did a great interview gonna win,
- 1:37:00Speaker 1: He's gonna beat Kathy Hokeel and Varney brought up working
- 1:37:04Speaker 1: with the mayor and in this conversation, you got to
- 1:37:08Speaker 1: get the audio. Justin lynj just sent it to us
- 1:37:10Speaker 1: now riosted, I'm sorry and in the conversation, Sid Rosenberg
- 1:37:16Speaker 1: and Dave Portnoy came up as potential mayors that Bruce
- 1:37:22Speaker 1: Blakeman would love to work with. Interesting, right, I mean,
- 1:37:26Speaker 1: I really haven't talked about this, and other people come
- 1:37:28Speaker 1: on and talk about it more than I do, but
- 1:37:31Speaker 1: it is interesting. Well, they just hate this Mom Donnie,
- 1:37:34Speaker 1: this idea that he's so popular and he is amongst
- 1:37:38Speaker 1: his party. He's become the face of the Democrat party.
- 1:37:41Speaker 1: The moderate Dems are dead, they're god that do only exist.
- 1:37:45Speaker 1: The face of that party is Mom Donnie. And now
- 1:37:48Speaker 1: there are Mom Donnie's, even Mom Donnie's with vaginas like
- 1:37:52Speaker 1: the girl in Colorado popping up all over the country. Scary.
- 1:37:56Speaker 1: This son of a bitch is taken over. Ayoc, all
- 1:38:00Speaker 1: of them. Let me take a break. We'll talk to
- 1:38:02Speaker 1: Kat McFarland, Bill O'Reilly, maybe Hall of Fame linebacker Brian
- 1:38:05Speaker 1: Urlacker as well.
- 1:38:08Speaker 2: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
- 1:38:11Speaker 2: podcast network.
- 1:38:14Speaker 1: This boat parade every year around July the fourth. They
- 1:38:18Speaker 1: dedicated it for a couple of years to my dad
- 1:38:20Speaker 1: because my dad died on July the first six years ago.
- 1:38:24Speaker 1: So the boat parade is this weekend. I'll be there.
- 1:38:27Speaker 1: I know Tommy wants me to get involved. I don't know.
- 1:38:29Speaker 1: I got a lot going on, but at any rate,
- 1:38:31Speaker 1: good luck, I'll be there the boat parade. Tommy Gilb
- 1:38:34Speaker 1: and his family do a great job. They are great Americans,
- 1:38:37Speaker 1: they love President Trump, they love this country, and they
- 1:38:40Speaker 1: do a great job upstate for us. So Tommy, thank
- 1:38:44Speaker 1: you so much. Kate McFarland. So here's the deal, KT, So,
- 1:38:49Speaker 1: my job the last couple of weeks has been to
- 1:38:53Speaker 1: take people like you. We are much smarter than me.
- 1:38:56Speaker 1: I admit it, much smarter to take people like you.
- 1:39:00Speaker 1: And have you admit that I've been right using the
- 1:39:04Speaker 1: words stuck nowhere those words the last couple of months
- 1:39:08Speaker 1: to describe where we are with the Iran war. I
- 1:39:11Speaker 1: shut down on the Kurvy Couch on Sunday, and I
- 1:39:14Speaker 1: think I shocked the hell out of Rachel Campost Duppy
- 1:39:17Speaker 1: and Charlie Hurton Griff Jenkins because I think they expected
- 1:39:20Speaker 1: me to say, Hey, we won, We're doing great, and
- 1:39:22Speaker 1: we're not. We're not. If you want to use a
- 1:39:26Speaker 1: Dow Jones as a measure, I guess, but that's not
- 1:39:28Speaker 1: the measure.
- 1:39:29Speaker 14: We're not.
- 1:39:30Speaker 1: So the question is kt. Can I get you admit
- 1:39:34Speaker 1: that we have not won anything at this point anything,
- 1:39:37Speaker 1: and that right now we are basically stuck.
- 1:39:41Speaker 16: No, and I don't understand. Why do you think we've lost.
- 1:39:45Speaker 1: I didn't say we lost, but we didn't win. There's
- 1:39:47Speaker 1: a big difference between we've lost and we won. We
- 1:39:49Speaker 1: won nothing. We won nothing. The straight of our moves
- 1:39:53Speaker 1: was open before we started this. We made this problem.
- 1:39:56Speaker 1: The naval blockade wasn't there before we started this. We
- 1:40:00Speaker 1: made that problem. Now, you want to sell me on
- 1:40:03Speaker 1: Midnight Hammer. That was amazing, It was perfect. We really
- 1:40:07Speaker 1: did knock out their centifuss. They can't even they can't
- 1:40:11Speaker 1: even enrich this uanium. That was a tremendous effort. You
- 1:40:14Speaker 1: want to tell me, Operation Epic Fury was great. I
- 1:40:17Speaker 1: agree with that too. But the last two months, these
- 1:40:22Speaker 1: constant ceasepiers, which is ridiculous because we're still firing on
- 1:40:26Speaker 1: each other, these constant extensions. Now, for the last two months,
- 1:40:30Speaker 1: we've done nothing nothing. That's my point.
- 1:40:36Speaker 16: Okay. First of all, as far as ceasefire negotiations go,
- 1:40:41Speaker 16: we're negotiating while you have a ceasefire. There's a long
- 1:40:43Speaker 16: history of a lot of fighting kicks for tap fighting
- 1:40:46Speaker 16: going on during the negotiations. And I remember being with
- 1:40:49Speaker 16: Kissinger when we were negotiating the end of Vietnam War,
- 1:40:53Speaker 16: and we were negotiating for two years and they was
- 1:40:56Speaker 16: fighting throughout. But in the end you get a deal. Now,
- 1:40:59Speaker 16: when I look at the sort of objectively, okay, what
- 1:41:02Speaker 16: have we achieved? And you're right, Operation the Knight Hammer,
- 1:41:05Speaker 16: operation epic theory, particularly operation economics theory, has put around
- 1:41:12Speaker 16: in a position where there's no way they win anything.
- 1:41:15Speaker 16: Their proxies are diminished, maybe not all of Hazbolo.
- 1:41:20Speaker 1: I don't care what Ieron's economic situation is. I care
- 1:41:23Speaker 1: about America. Now the Dow Jones is off and the
- 1:41:26Speaker 1: SAP is up, But guess what Goods are still too expensive?
- 1:41:29Speaker 1: Interest rates are still high, Inflation is still high. What
- 1:41:33Speaker 1: do I care? What do you want? Looks like Economically,
- 1:41:35Speaker 1: that's not going to stop them, Kat and you know better,
- 1:41:39Speaker 1: that's not going to stop them from continuing to get
- 1:41:42Speaker 1: weapons from other countries, money from other countries and continue
- 1:41:46Speaker 1: this nonsense.
- 1:41:47Speaker 16: We are we getting the money. They're not getting the
- 1:41:49Speaker 16: money from any of the They are at a discounted price.
- 1:41:53Speaker 16: The access are all still frozen. Their money is now
- 1:41:58Speaker 16: moving as around self soil in dollars, which means that
- 1:42:01Speaker 16: we now can have the visibility of it because it
- 1:42:05Speaker 16: has to go through American banks and we can see
- 1:42:07Speaker 16: who's buying it for, how much are they paying, where's
- 1:42:09Speaker 16: the money going once around achieves it. And as far
- 1:42:12Speaker 16: as the economic part of it, where I think your
- 1:42:15Speaker 16: main complaint is that has screwed the American people economically,
- 1:42:18Speaker 16: I would disagree with that. The price of oil this
- 1:42:20Speaker 16: morning was fifty seven dollars a barrel, at half of
- 1:42:22Speaker 16: what it was during Biden, and it's starting to come
- 1:42:24Speaker 16: down dramatically. Oil national average price of oils under four
- 1:42:29Speaker 16: dollars a gallon. You and I live in New York,
- 1:42:31Speaker 16: so it's a bit you know, it's sort of foreign plus,
- 1:42:33Speaker 16: but throughout the country it's a sort of three fifty
- 1:42:36Speaker 16: three seventy three eighty that's going down because the price
- 1:42:39Speaker 16: of oil remains down as Iran is selling the soil,
- 1:42:43Speaker 16: and a funny way, that helps our economy because it
- 1:42:46Speaker 16: puts more money more oil in the world and that
- 1:42:49Speaker 16: that drives, you know, supplying demand, that drives fund the
- 1:42:51Speaker 16: price of oil. So if I'm looking at sort of
- 1:42:54Speaker 16: what's Iran gotten out of this? What have we gotten
- 1:42:56Speaker 16: out of this? And what is the long term prospects
- 1:42:57Speaker 16: for the United States. I would say around have nuclear weapons,
- 1:43:01Speaker 16: Aron's so that doesn't threaten Well, maybe they were ready
- 1:43:04Speaker 16: to threaten the United States with nuclear weapons because they
- 1:43:07Speaker 16: didn't have long arrange missiles. But they have medium arrange
- 1:43:09Speaker 16: missiles which could have hit Europe certainly could have been Israel.
- 1:43:12Speaker 16: Their nuclear weapons program is decimated. Their missile program where
- 1:43:16Speaker 16: they were trying to build missiles they could reach the
- 1:43:18Speaker 16: United States, that's gone. Their ability to reconstitute their networks,
- 1:43:25Speaker 16: their Hesbelahamas, et cetera networks, I think that's greatly diminished.
- 1:43:29Speaker 16: Israel's taken a lot of chunks out of Hesbela. Israel
- 1:43:32Speaker 16: got a deal last week, an agreement with Lebanon to
- 1:43:36Speaker 16: Lebanon now recognizes it. Now Hezbela is the odd man outright,
- 1:43:39Speaker 16: is Israel plus Lebanon against Hesbelav. That's a good thing.
- 1:43:43Speaker 16: Hamas is almost gone. The peace plan, the Hamaspi the
- 1:43:48Speaker 16: Godsi peace plan is proceeding. So I'm looking at this
- 1:43:50Speaker 16: and these are all wins. Now, do we have some
- 1:43:52Speaker 16: surrender document where they're signing on the dotted line. No,
- 1:43:56Speaker 16: but the American economy is in pretty good shape and
- 1:43:58Speaker 16: going to get better.
- 1:44:00Speaker 1: Yeah, that is true. What you just said is one
- 1:44:03Speaker 1: hundred percent true. But when we started this war, at
- 1:44:06Speaker 1: least back then, it wasn't about the American economy. Now
- 1:44:10Speaker 1: it's great that that has become a byproduct of all
- 1:44:14Speaker 1: of this. And you're right the nuclear stuff, but they
- 1:44:17Speaker 1: still have the dust now. I know that we hurt
- 1:44:19Speaker 1: them badly when we hammer them during midnight hammer, but
- 1:44:22Speaker 1: they still have it. And the straight you know, they
- 1:44:25Speaker 1: do run that straight.
- 1:44:26Speaker 14: It's not us.
- 1:44:27Speaker 1: The naval blockade, the terrific jography they run.
- 1:44:30Speaker 16: One of they're freeze lanes in the Strait they've run there,
- 1:44:34Speaker 16: and there's around the Oman side of it we're running.
- 1:44:37Speaker 16: The ships are going in and out what like one
- 1:44:39Speaker 16: hundred and sixty seventy eighty one hundred a day or
- 1:44:41Speaker 16: climb out and all that's all that panof oil on
- 1:44:43Speaker 16: the tankers. It's now flooding into the market. And as
- 1:44:46Speaker 16: far as the dust, we see who's going into those
- 1:44:50Speaker 16: you know, cratered mountains. We know if they're going to
- 1:44:52Speaker 16: try to get in there, they're not tricky enough to
- 1:44:55Speaker 16: somehow dig a five thousand mile tunnel where they're going
- 1:44:59Speaker 16: to get out the dust. So is the dust buried?
- 1:45:01Speaker 16: Has the dust been accounted for it? You let me
- 1:45:03Speaker 16: look get there, but it's gone. They're not using that
- 1:45:06Speaker 16: enriched uranium to make weapons, and they don't have any
- 1:45:08Speaker 16: missiles to deliver those weapons. So I'm looking at all
- 1:45:11Speaker 16: that and I'm thinking, Okay, in the fullness of time,
- 1:45:13Speaker 16: what's likely to happen next? If Iran decides it's going
- 1:45:16Speaker 16: to spend its money on Hesbalanhamas and death to America,
- 1:45:21Speaker 16: then the Iranian people, who were pretty angry about their
- 1:45:24Speaker 16: economy six months ago are going to be really angry
- 1:45:27Speaker 16: about their economy now it's not getting any better. For
- 1:45:29Speaker 16: the Ranian people, they can't.
- 1:45:30Speaker 14: Think about it.
- 1:45:31Speaker 1: They're not on They shot down forty the street.
- 1:45:35Speaker 16: Yeah, but we'll see them this time around and guess
- 1:45:37Speaker 16: what they start shooting forty thousand tomorrow. I would think
- 1:45:40Speaker 16: the United States could happen a reaction, a military reaction,
- 1:45:43Speaker 16: an economic reaction, better reaction. They're not going to get
- 1:45:46Speaker 16: away with shooting fifty thousand people in the streets with
- 1:45:48Speaker 16: the whole world.
- 1:45:49Speaker 1: Washington, I would hope, so hope not, I should say so.
- 1:45:52Speaker 1: You said to me, what makes you think we're losing
- 1:45:54Speaker 1: some of the losing, But it sounds to me like
- 1:45:56Speaker 1: you think we won.
- 1:46:00Speaker 16: I think we were ready one And the fact that
- 1:46:02Speaker 16: these negotiations don't have a sign on the dotted line
- 1:46:05Speaker 16: thing is of less concern to me than the several
- 1:46:09Speaker 16: factors that I pointed out. The economic wind for the
- 1:46:12Speaker 16: United States, price of oils down a lot of the
- 1:46:15Speaker 16: If you look at Iranian oil, where is that going? Well,
- 1:46:17Speaker 16: the whole world was supposed to buy Iranian oil right
- 1:46:19Speaker 16: if it ever was unsanctioned. It's been unsanctioned. Who's buying
- 1:46:23Speaker 16: it only China and a big discount. So where are
- 1:46:25Speaker 16: the countries that want to buy oil buying it from
- 1:46:27Speaker 16: They're buy it from us. They weren't buying it from
- 1:46:29Speaker 16: US before. They're buying it from Iran Gulf country. So
- 1:46:32Speaker 16: I think that's been as terrific for our oil industry
- 1:46:34Speaker 16: or natural gas industry. The price of oils, I said,
- 1:46:37Speaker 16: is coming down. We're kind of at that sweet spot
- 1:46:40Speaker 16: where American companies can make money, but it's not so
- 1:46:44Speaker 16: high that it affects us. As the gas tank. Now
- 1:46:46Speaker 16: will the inflation that the Iran war temporarily caused start
- 1:46:51Speaker 16: coming down? I think we've already seen signs.
- 1:46:53Speaker 13: That it is.
- 1:46:54Speaker 1: Do you think the American people agree with you?
- 1:46:58Speaker 16: I don't know. I mean politician said, you're the guy
- 1:47:01Speaker 16: who is a policle.
- 1:47:02Speaker 1: I have no idea. Listen, the people that I speak
- 1:47:04Speaker 1: to don't agree with you in the big numbers. They don't.
- 1:47:08Speaker 1: They think that we're stuck in a mess. We haven't
- 1:47:11Speaker 1: completed anything. And while you're giving us really great stuff here,
- 1:47:16Speaker 1: this is great, and you're making a very very good
- 1:47:18Speaker 1: point that we have done well. I wouldn't agree with
- 1:47:20Speaker 1: you that we want anything yet, but certainly you're making
- 1:47:23Speaker 1: an argument towards that. Towards that stage, then we're losing
- 1:47:27Speaker 1: if people think that. But there are very few people
- 1:47:30Speaker 1: I speak to that think that we've won over winning
- 1:47:34Speaker 1: or we're doing great anecdotal it's just me, but very few.
- 1:47:38Speaker 16: No, and I'm sure that a lot of people feel
- 1:47:40Speaker 16: that way. I think the administration has done a pretty
- 1:47:42Speaker 16: lousy job of communicating the success has had. But I
- 1:47:46Speaker 16: would also say, we're moving on from Iran, So what's
- 1:47:49Speaker 16: going to be next? Cubis next, and that will.
- 1:47:52Speaker 1: Be a huge hold on before you get the Cuba,
- 1:47:54Speaker 1: I know, before you get the QBA. You said, we're
- 1:47:55Speaker 1: moving on from Iran. Do you know where it was
- 1:47:58Speaker 1: last week? I was in Israel for eight days.
- 1:48:03Speaker 13: Oh yeah, that's right, yeah right, And the last thing.
- 1:48:06Speaker 1: The Israelis want to hear is we're moving on from Iran.
- 1:48:10Speaker 1: You know, I said this all week long. At one
- 1:48:13Speaker 1: point last year, President Trump's approval rating in Israel was
- 1:48:17Speaker 1: like ninety nine percent. And again anecdotal. I don't think
- 1:48:21Speaker 1: I spoke to one Israeli that's not angry with President Trump,
- 1:48:24Speaker 1: not one, not one. Because they really thought that a
- 1:48:28Speaker 1: miracle was in this to annihilate Iran, not to get
- 1:48:32Speaker 1: the Dow Jones up, not to get oil prices down.
- 1:48:36Speaker 1: They thought they were in this to make sure Iran
- 1:48:39Speaker 1: does not have the capability to make a nuclear weapon,
- 1:48:42Speaker 1: and also make sure that Iran was basically done. And
- 1:48:47Speaker 1: that's not close either, And the Israelis are pissed. I'm
- 1:48:51Speaker 1: telling you this.
- 1:48:53Speaker 16: Okay, So Ron does no longer have the ability to
- 1:48:54Speaker 16: make a nuclear weapon. That should make a lot of
- 1:48:56Speaker 16: Israelis really happy, but number two obliterate around. Let's just
- 1:48:59Speaker 16: suppose I mean, this is ninety one million people. This
- 1:49:02Speaker 16: is like the people who chant death the israel I
- 1:49:03Speaker 16: don't want ninety one million Iranians to be obliterated.
- 1:49:07Speaker 13: I want they don't need to be leadership, right, So
- 1:49:11Speaker 13: we're not going to do it. But why the regime?
- 1:49:13Speaker 1: Why not? Why not? What do you mean when in
- 1:49:15Speaker 1: the regime? Why why let the the I on JC
- 1:49:19Speaker 1: stays in power. What do you think is going to
- 1:49:21Speaker 1: happen in five years?
- 1:49:22Speaker 16: I think that the Irs you see stays are limited
- 1:49:25Speaker 16: and the fact that the Iranian people, you know, again,
- 1:49:28Speaker 16: in the fullness of time, what's going to happen in Iran?
- 1:49:31Speaker 16: Fast forward six months, nine months, twelve months. Where's Iran
- 1:49:34Speaker 16: going to be. It's not going to have It's not
- 1:49:35Speaker 16: if it decides to use the money from its oil
- 1:49:37Speaker 16: revenue this which is not as significant as people thought
- 1:49:40Speaker 16: it would be. If it decides it's not going to
- 1:49:42Speaker 16: rebuild bridges and hospitals and better the Iranian the lot
- 1:49:47Speaker 16: of the Iranian people, they're going back to the streets
- 1:49:50Speaker 16: and the world will be watching. And like I said,
- 1:49:51Speaker 16: I don't think anybody's going to tolerate the Irs you
- 1:49:54Speaker 16: see gunning people down now so where's Iran in six
- 1:49:57Speaker 16: months time? The Iranian people are angry, where is the
- 1:50:00Speaker 16: see We already are seeing splits in the Iranian leadership.
- 1:50:02Speaker 16: There are probably three groups in the Iranian leadership right now.
- 1:50:06Speaker 16: One is the IRGC, and those one hundred and sixty
- 1:50:08Speaker 16: thousand guys, they don't want to settle anything. They'd much
- 1:50:10Speaker 16: rather be martyrs for the cause. You then have the
- 1:50:13Speaker 16: parliamentarians and they're looking to do a deal. They're pragmatists,
- 1:50:17Speaker 16: they've got a country to run. And then you have
- 1:50:18Speaker 16: the Iranian people who were were pre convinced don't like
- 1:50:22Speaker 16: anybody there, but they're not. They're certainly not going to
- 1:50:25Speaker 16: back the IRGC. I'd like to see, in the fullness
- 1:50:27Speaker 16: of time, how the Iranian government regime survives in any
- 1:50:31Speaker 16: sense of power when they've got ninety one million people
- 1:50:34Speaker 16: angry at them and they've got a Bible alternative. There's
- 1:50:37Speaker 16: a reason President Trump, I think kept the Iranian Army,
- 1:50:41Speaker 16: the regular Iranian army, the guys that were in the
- 1:50:44Speaker 16: you know, that's an army that predates the Iranian Revolution,
- 1:50:47Speaker 16: and the Iranian police force. They're regular guys, not the besiege,
- 1:50:51Speaker 16: not the IRGC. Those guys are still intact. The good guys,
- 1:50:55Speaker 16: the Iranian Army and the Iranian they're still intact. That
- 1:50:58Speaker 16: could be the basis of a new government. So for me,
- 1:51:01Speaker 16: my big success here is a slow rolling coup getting
- 1:51:04Speaker 16: rid of the I ergy.
- 1:51:05Speaker 1: See okay, cut you up. I'm sorry about Cuba. He said,
- 1:51:09Speaker 1: they're next, They're on next. What do you see there?
- 1:51:13Speaker 16: Oh, I think that that deal is more or less
- 1:51:14Speaker 16: in place, that the business leaders have gone back and forth.
- 1:51:18Speaker 16: Marco Rubio is talking in Spanish, in Cuban Spanish to
- 1:51:22Speaker 16: a lot of the leadership there, especially even the Castro grandchildren,
- 1:51:27Speaker 16: their grandson, and that the only things that are standing
- 1:51:30Speaker 16: in the way is like Maduro, it's those top incompetent, corrupt,
- 1:51:34Speaker 16: apparatic communist leaders. But the country wants. The country wants
- 1:51:39Speaker 16: to change. The leaders of the country want to change
- 1:51:41Speaker 16: and economic change. They'll be massive investment in Cuba, and
- 1:51:45Speaker 16: I think it'll become I mean, my guess is Donald
- 1:51:47Speaker 16: Trump goes to Havana before the end of his term
- 1:51:50Speaker 16: and that Cuba five years from now is a close
- 1:51:52Speaker 16: American ally love.
- 1:51:53Speaker 1: It one more. You know, President Trump, what he did
- 1:51:57Speaker 1: campaign against socialism in twenty twenty four and just winning everywhere.
- 1:52:03Speaker 1: You know, we got nine different I believe nine different
- 1:52:07Speaker 1: candidates who won here in New York. We all watched
- 1:52:10Speaker 1: Colorado in horror. A couple of nights ago, we watched
- 1:52:13Speaker 1: the primaries. I was in Israel, I was watching in
- 1:52:16Speaker 1: horror last Tuesday. When people like Chevalier and Valdez and
- 1:52:19Speaker 1: bred Lander, I are you afraid of what this country
- 1:52:24Speaker 1: is going to look like in the very near.
- 1:52:26Speaker 14: Future, not in the near maybe in the near future,
- 1:52:30Speaker 14: not in the long term future.
- 1:52:32Speaker 16: Why so, what are these socialists? I mean, they don't
- 1:52:34Speaker 16: you know, they don't even know what socialistsm is. Most
- 1:52:36Speaker 16: of the people who were voting from the leaders of
- 1:52:38Speaker 16: the socialist movement communist movement do. But I think the
- 1:52:41Speaker 16: people who were voting for them are voting because they
- 1:52:43Speaker 16: don't like this. They don't like their lot in life
- 1:52:45Speaker 16: right now. They don't think the economy is good. They're
- 1:52:47Speaker 16: not getting they have they can't buy a house, their
- 1:52:49Speaker 16: college education, they have a lot of student debt, no jobs,
- 1:52:52Speaker 16: and so how do you fix that? If I look
- 1:52:54Speaker 16: back in history, we had a very similar pro communist
- 1:52:57Speaker 16: socialist movement in the nineteen thirties. Why heart of the
- 1:53:00Speaker 16: Great Depression, then World War Two comes, and then after
- 1:53:03Speaker 16: World War Two prosperity. What happened to socialism in the
- 1:53:06Speaker 16: nineteen fifties and sixties and comic gone. So I think
- 1:53:09Speaker 16: that the cure for this the socialist movement in the
- 1:53:12Speaker 16: country is prosperity, and I think we are headed there.
- 1:53:16Speaker 16: And I do think the next twenty five years will
- 1:53:18Speaker 16: be a golden era for the United States economically. In
- 1:53:21Speaker 16: the technology, I think we're ahead in artificial intelligence and
- 1:53:24Speaker 16: we're going to keep that lead, and then we're going to,
- 1:53:27Speaker 16: like by light years, jump ahead of everybody else, and
- 1:53:30Speaker 16: that's going to be the wave of the future. So
- 1:53:33Speaker 16: I don't like what they're doing right now, and they'll
- 1:53:34Speaker 16: do some really stupid stuff, and these cities will lose
- 1:53:37Speaker 16: more people and they'll be horrible places to live. But
- 1:53:40Speaker 16: in the long run, it's a greater economy starts improving.
- 1:53:44Speaker 16: Then I think the whole dream of socialism kind of
- 1:53:47Speaker 16: goes away because there is a good alternative to a
- 1:53:50Speaker 16: corrupt government and to socialism, which nobody really thinks is
- 1:53:53Speaker 16: going to work.
- 1:53:55Speaker 1: This may have been your greatest performance ever. You know that,
- 1:53:59Speaker 1: that's how great deal of today Ammunte Katie. Just fantastic.
- 1:54:03Speaker 1: You came armed with a whole bunch of wheelbox and
- 1:54:06Speaker 1: you were great. So I loved you already.
- 1:54:08Speaker 6: You know that.
- 1:54:08Speaker 1: I think you're the best. But thank you very much
- 1:54:10Speaker 1: for this.
- 1:54:11Speaker 16: Thank you, and I'll be your foreign policy advisor when
- 1:54:14Speaker 16: you're mayor.
- 1:54:14Speaker 1: Oh my god, you are going to be I'm serious.
- 1:54:17Speaker 1: I mean maybe even cheap of staff. I don't know,
- 1:54:20Speaker 1: something big for you, because you are a genius. Oh quickly,
- 1:54:23Speaker 1: how are you celebrating Saturday?
- 1:54:25Speaker 13: Oh?
- 1:54:26Speaker 16: Well, we have a parade in Southampton. It's like a
- 1:54:28Speaker 16: Hallmark movie parade where the kids ride their bikes with
- 1:54:31Speaker 16: their little streamers and people re enacted the Revolutionary War.
- 1:54:35Speaker 16: We have cannons that go off. The fire departments of
- 1:54:39Speaker 16: the whole area come and I have let me think
- 1:54:42Speaker 16: I have eleven grandchildren. I think I've got nine of
- 1:54:45Speaker 16: them who are going to be with me. Sitting right
- 1:54:47Speaker 16: there watching the parade.
- 1:54:48Speaker 13: Is your daughter in from Florida too, She's here with
- 1:54:51Speaker 13: her four children.
- 1:54:52Speaker 1: Oh fantastic, that's beautiful. Well listen you enjoy the big
- 1:54:55Speaker 1: birthday on Saturday. And again, thank you so much for
- 1:54:58Speaker 1: being great on this program. I love you. Kat, Thank you.
- 1:55:01Speaker 16: Can I just tell you one great thing everybody should
- 1:55:03Speaker 16: do on the fourth of July. Should we do it
- 1:55:05Speaker 16: every year?
- 1:55:06Speaker 1: Sure?
- 1:55:06Speaker 16: Read the Declaration of Independence.
- 1:55:08Speaker 1: I love that.
- 1:55:09Speaker 16: Get your family around, everybody gets to read a paragraph.
- 1:55:12Speaker 16: It'll just strike courage in your heart.
- 1:55:16Speaker 1: I really do love that. I do read the Declaration
- 1:55:19Speaker 1: of Independence on Saturday, and we're gonna do it. I
- 1:55:21Speaker 1: love that idea. Kat, Thank you so.
- 1:55:23Speaker 16: Much, Thank you and happy for us.
- 1:55:26Speaker 1: You too, I love her. That's a good idea like that.
- 1:55:29Speaker 1: You know O'reiley does something similar. He's coming up next Thanksgiving.
- 1:55:34Speaker 1: I'm not sure he does it every year, but he
- 1:55:36Speaker 1: sits down with his kids and his family and they
- 1:55:40Speaker 1: actually talk about why they're sitting there and what the
- 1:55:44Speaker 1: holiday is all about. They do, which is kind of
- 1:55:47Speaker 1: cool because most of our children are morons, and because
- 1:55:51Speaker 1: they don't learn anything in school, especially in New York,
- 1:55:53Speaker 1: they learn nothing. Civil rights and slavery and that's all
- 1:55:56Speaker 1: they learn. It's not their fault, it's it's the fourth
- 1:55:58Speaker 1: of the Board of Education, which in New York should
- 1:56:01Speaker 1: be ashamed of themselves. So I like that idea. Have
- 1:56:05Speaker 1: you ever read justin the Declaration of Independence?
- 1:56:10Speaker 7: I don't think he's hearing you.
- 1:56:11Speaker 1: What now you heard me perfectly?
- 1:56:14Speaker 14: All right?
- 1:56:14Speaker 1: Well come back with Bill o'ronnie's kidding.
- 1:56:19Speaker 2: Me, Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red
- 1:56:23Speaker 2: Apple Podcast Network.
- 1:56:25Speaker 1: For some reason, I came up in the conversation between
- 1:56:30Speaker 1: Blakeman and Vonnie. So before I get Bill on you,
- 1:56:33Speaker 1: if you can play that, this is once again Courtesio
- 1:56:36Speaker 1: Box News Flateman. Is Dave Portnoy the kind of guy
- 1:56:39Speaker 1: you could work with if he became man.
- 1:56:42Speaker 4: Absolutely, it's very exciting. You know, I've heard two exciting
- 1:56:45Speaker 4: names that are interested in running from mayor. David Portnoy
- 1:56:49Speaker 4: is the newest one, and that's exciting. Sid Rosenberg, the
- 1:56:52Speaker 4: radio personality is interested. It's good that there are people
- 1:56:56Speaker 4: out there that are willing to step up and take
- 1:56:58Speaker 4: on Zo Ron mcdone. So it's to be very interesting.
- 1:57:01Speaker 4: Zura Mandami has a charted a course of failure for
- 1:57:04Speaker 4: New York City. He's not hiring new cops to fill
- 1:57:07Speaker 4: all the vacancies of all the people that are leaving
- 1:57:10Speaker 4: the police department. So we are headed for a disaster
- 1:57:13Speaker 4: on the Zura Mandami, I will stop him.
- 1:57:15Speaker 1: As governor.
- 1:57:16Speaker 4: I will turn things around and having a Dave Portnoy
- 1:57:19Speaker 4: or a Sid Rosenberg or somebody else for that matter,
- 1:57:22Speaker 4: that'll jump in and be willing to run. Is a
- 1:57:24Speaker 4: great thing for New York City.
- 1:57:26Speaker 1: God, I love him, I really do. Bruce Blakeman, that's
- 1:57:29Speaker 1: very cool. Thank you very much, Dave Portnoy, said Rosenberg.
- 1:57:32Speaker 1: He was the best. He still is the best, will
- 1:57:34Speaker 1: always be the best, whether it's Thursdays right here with me,
- 1:57:37Speaker 1: Mondays with Katz and Cosby. His own amazing website, Bill
- 1:57:41Speaker 1: O'Reilly dot com. Great interviews, great stories, it's really just
- 1:57:44Speaker 1: great Television's write all these great books, The Killing Series,
- 1:57:48Speaker 1: his book on the President's Confronting Evil, newbook coming out
- 1:57:51Speaker 1: again late September this year. His News Nation work with
- 1:57:55Speaker 1: Chris Cuomo, when Stephen A. Smith is live, shows on
- 1:57:59Speaker 1: the road in his new podcast, which is doing really well,
- 1:58:02Speaker 1: do it Live the great Bill O'Reilly Bill, Good morning, buddy.
- 1:58:06Speaker 1: How are you?
- 1:58:07Speaker 14: So?
- 1:58:07Speaker 13: You were gone? And then I read in the paper
- 1:58:11Speaker 13: that you are in the Broadcast Hall of Fame? Is
- 1:58:13Speaker 13: that correct? Not yet?
- 1:58:15Speaker 1: I'm being inducted in October October twenty second at the
- 1:58:18Speaker 1: Rainbow Room, and you need to be there, and I'm
- 1:58:21Speaker 1: not just saying this to patronize you and all that.
- 1:58:23Speaker 1: But when I think of people along the way that
- 1:58:26Speaker 1: got me to this surreal and almost lampable point, I'm
- 1:58:32Speaker 1: going into the Hall of Fame, You're one of those
- 1:58:34Speaker 1: people at the very top of the list. So it
- 1:58:36Speaker 1: is happening, Bill. I know it's crazy. I know you
- 1:58:39Speaker 1: can't believe it, but it really is happening.
- 1:58:41Speaker 13: But I'm jealous. I mean, the only I think they
- 1:58:44Speaker 13: have a picture of me and Burrelli's on Hempstead Compark.
- 1:58:49Speaker 13: But that's as close to a Hall of Fame I've
- 1:58:52Speaker 13: ever got what So I'm very jealous. But if I
- 1:58:55Speaker 13: can be there, I will be there. I'll be great
- 1:58:58Speaker 13: at the rain room, Yes, your good right word, it was.
- 1:59:06Speaker 1: It was great. I had the chance to speak with
- 1:59:08Speaker 1: and hang out a bit with Bibnating last Sunday and
- 1:59:11Speaker 1: in fact that last sun.
- 1:59:13Speaker 13: Let me let me stop you there when you say
- 1:59:15Speaker 13: you hang out with bb Net and Yahu.
- 1:59:19Speaker 14: That's right?
- 1:59:20Speaker 13: How does that? How does that happen? Do you go bowling?
- 1:59:24Speaker 13: Do you help him with his call moder what do
- 1:59:27Speaker 13: you do to hang out?
- 1:59:29Speaker 1: Well, in this particular case, he was only at the
- 1:59:32Speaker 1: Waldorf Story of a couple of hours, so we did
- 1:59:35Speaker 1: sit sat next to each other, we talked, we had
- 1:59:37Speaker 1: a couple of good conversations, and took a couple of pictures,
- 1:59:40Speaker 1: that type of thing. But I've done what you're talking about.
- 1:59:43Speaker 1: I've gone for dinners, have gone to a farm, I've
- 1:59:45Speaker 1: gone I've gone to a winery. I've done all those
- 1:59:48Speaker 1: things in the past with boebe. But last Sunday, because
- 1:59:51Speaker 1: it was only one venue, it was me, Mike Huckabee,
- 1:59:55Speaker 1: BB Netanyau, Mark Levin, we all hung out together at
- 1:59:59Speaker 1: the Waldorf Nice.
- 2:00:01Speaker 13: Huh, very swell who picked up the tab for that, not.
- 2:00:05Speaker 1: Me, JNS dot org.
- 2:00:08Speaker 13: With bb pay and Crypto.
- 2:00:12Speaker 1: It was you know, you're funny you say crypto and
- 2:00:14Speaker 1: you mentioned bb But you know that right now the
- 2:00:19Speaker 1: liberal media, those lunatic Democrats, all they're talking about is
- 2:00:24Speaker 1: all the money that President Trump and his sons have
- 2:00:28Speaker 1: made in crypto ll everybody else is taking a beating.
- 2:00:31Speaker 1: How was that happening?
- 2:00:34Speaker 13: Because he's in the easy story. I'm in trying this
- 2:00:37Speaker 13: week to get people to understand there's the actual story
- 2:00:42Speaker 13: that's happening, and then they're the easy story that you
- 2:00:46Speaker 13: can just you know, slam somebody you don't like. That
- 2:00:49Speaker 13: seems you know, five year old can do that. Now,
- 2:00:52Speaker 13: on the Trump situation, we don't really know the extent
- 2:00:56Speaker 13: of his financial dealings because nobody has seen what the
- 2:01:02Speaker 13: losses were. They seem what the gains were, but not
- 2:01:05Speaker 13: the losses and not who did what. I understand that
- 2:01:09Speaker 13: he established a trust, a revocable trust. That's complicated, I
- 2:01:13Speaker 13: understand that. But he seems to have followed the guidelines
- 2:01:18Speaker 13: that are in place for the president to do business.
- 2:01:23Speaker 13: And Trump's always been a business man. Now, maybe he
- 2:01:28Speaker 13: did a hunter Biden and used connections. That's certainly possible.
- 2:01:33Speaker 13: But these people who are reporting on it, they don't
- 2:01:36Speaker 13: know anything. For example, Jared Kushner, who is Trump's son
- 2:01:42Speaker 13: in law, spent a lot of dough in Albania. Apparently
- 2:01:49Speaker 13: Jared wants to make Albania and Jaconey Island. It's not happening, Okay,
- 2:01:57Speaker 13: not a good idea. The Albaians don't like you, Jared,
- 2:02:02Speaker 13: they don't like anything about you. All Right, they'll take
- 2:02:05Speaker 13: you money, you'll never see it again. And we're not
- 2:02:09Speaker 13: going to have Coney Island in Albania. But the Trump
- 2:02:14Speaker 13: organization put a lot of money in there to try
- 2:02:17Speaker 13: to develop that and so that comes off the top,
- 2:02:22Speaker 13: but it doesn't really matter. The perception is reality, and
- 2:02:26Speaker 13: the perception is that the President of the United States
- 2:02:29Speaker 13: is a grifter and he's using his position to help
- 2:02:33Speaker 13: his family get money. And so that's what these networks do.
- 2:02:38Speaker 13: They don't care what really happened. They're not spending any
- 2:02:42Speaker 13: time investigating. They don't care.
- 2:02:45Speaker 1: Yeah, anybody don't, you know. And back to the Iran
- 2:02:47Speaker 1: think for a second. Similar conversations I had this week
- 2:02:52Speaker 1: with John Katsumatit's is a very right guy obviously, and
- 2:02:55Speaker 1: Katine mcfalland they both seem to think we won, we
- 2:02:58Speaker 1: won the war. Everybody else is more like me, which
- 2:03:01Speaker 1: is we've won nothing. We haven't lost anything. I never
- 2:03:04Speaker 1: said we've lost the war. You know, maybe we've got
- 2:03:07Speaker 1: we've got the edge in terms of who's winning. But
- 2:03:10Speaker 1: I'm not near a place at all right now. I'm
- 2:03:13Speaker 1: about to say we won this war.
- 2:03:16Speaker 13: What has been already think, Well, there's only one yardstick
- 2:03:20Speaker 13: for victory, and that's weapons inspectors going in on a
- 2:03:25Speaker 13: regular basis to monitor the Iranians, the Uranians trying to
- 2:03:34Speaker 13: make an atom baumb with their enrich urine.
- 2:03:38Speaker 1: Right, but if you believe but if you believe, they'll
- 2:03:41Speaker 1: forget about Operation Epic Fury if you believe that Midnight Hammer,
- 2:03:45Speaker 1: and I do believe this. I do believe this. I'm
- 2:03:46Speaker 1: on John side and KT side. If you believe that
- 2:03:50Speaker 1: Midnight Hammer destroyed their ability for the centrifutures to even
- 2:03:54Speaker 1: use that uranium, then they're light years, not light years,
- 2:03:57Speaker 1: but they are ways off from in witching that stuff
- 2:04:01Speaker 1: anyway to make a nuclear bomb. Thanks to Trump.
- 2:04:04Speaker 13: That may be true, but it's all classified. And from
- 2:04:07Speaker 13: what I'm hearing, the Iranians had a couple of other
- 2:04:11Speaker 13: uranium sites.
- 2:04:12Speaker 1: I'm sure that weren't hit. I'm sure.
- 2:04:16Speaker 13: And you know, I had a debate with Chris Coomo
- 2:04:18Speaker 13: didn't believe anything about the uranium stuff at all. And
- 2:04:22Speaker 13: you know, I said, look, you know, every almost every
- 2:04:25Speaker 13: expert is montious. This kind of stuff concurs that or
- 2:04:31Speaker 13: I was trying to get is trying to get a
- 2:04:33Speaker 13: nuclear weapon. This week they come out and go, Hey,
- 2:04:37Speaker 13: we have to have a nuclear weapon because we're going
- 2:04:39Speaker 13: to get attacked. And you know, now they're saying it themselves,
- 2:04:44Speaker 13: but it's fairly easy to understand if you don't get
- 2:04:50Speaker 13: that component, then you can't say that this thing was
- 2:04:56Speaker 13: worth it. And that's what the American people are looking for.
- 2:05:01Speaker 1: But then again, you know, John and KT were both
- 2:05:04Speaker 1: very quick to point out all these fantastic economic improvements
- 2:05:08Speaker 1: of Dow Jones over fifty two s and p up
- 2:05:12Speaker 1: and you know, again they're not talking about interest rates
- 2:05:14Speaker 1: are still high and the place is still high because
- 2:05:17Speaker 1: all you hear as well, oil is down to much
- 2:05:20Speaker 1: less than was under Biden. So there seem to be
- 2:05:22Speaker 1: some economic indicators that may in fact say it was
- 2:05:27Speaker 1: worth it until we get the dust.
- 2:05:29Speaker 13: Well, it's not enough to win the midterm elections because
- 2:05:32Speaker 13: it's way too complicated, and most Americans judge the administration
- 2:05:41Speaker 13: by how they are prospering individually. Great Trump was smart
- 2:05:45Speaker 13: when he said to the American oil companies, we know
- 2:05:48Speaker 13: you're gouging and they are okay, so you better bring
- 2:05:51Speaker 13: it down. You better bring them down at two dollars
- 2:05:54Speaker 13: and fifty cents a gallon. Now, the American oil companies
- 2:05:57Speaker 13: are going to take their sweet time because they're in
- 2:06:00Speaker 13: business to take as much money out of O'Reilly and
- 2:06:03Speaker 13: said as they can. But the people know that and
- 2:06:08Speaker 13: so people evaluate their vote is evaluated by how it
- 2:06:14Speaker 13: is affecting them directly, not macro economics.
- 2:06:18Speaker 14: Kate.
- 2:06:18Speaker 13: They could teach a course at the Kennedy School at
- 2:06:21Speaker 13: Harvard and it would be a good course, but that's
- 2:06:24Speaker 13: not going to influence one vote.
- 2:06:27Speaker 1: I agree with you. That's why I know people talk
- 2:06:29Speaker 1: about the Dow Jones. I mean, you know, I'm not saying.
- 2:06:33Speaker 13: About the country doesn't does not Jones.
- 2:06:38Speaker 16: Right.
- 2:06:38Speaker 1: It's by the way, it's a lot more than half
- 2:06:40Speaker 1: the country. Like I've been saying all week long, three
- 2:06:43Speaker 1: quarters of the country. Three quarters. If they get to
- 2:06:46Speaker 1: go to one red lobster dinner a month, they're doing great.
- 2:06:50Speaker 1: They have no idea what the Dow Jones.
- 2:06:52Speaker 13: They're not the investor class, correct, So two more points
- 2:06:57Speaker 13: because I know you're tight for time, and if you
- 2:07:01Speaker 13: if you put me on any later, I'm going to
- 2:07:03Speaker 13: be intruding on the bow Nerdley show.
- 2:07:06Speaker 1: I keep but I keep telling you you're doing me
- 2:07:09Speaker 1: a you're doing me a big paper because my nine
- 2:07:11Speaker 1: o'clock ratings have never been better, never.
- 2:07:13Speaker 13: All right, but you know it's getting later and later
- 2:07:16Speaker 13: and later. I mean I have to shave twice before
- 2:07:20Speaker 13: I can come on the suits radio program. So I'm
- 2:07:25Speaker 13: whining now, but that's okay. So I'm on NewsNation and
- 2:07:30Speaker 13: tomorrow night is it tomorrow night? No? Today is Thursday,
- 2:07:35Speaker 13: it's tonight. I don't even know when my own stuff
- 2:07:39Speaker 13: is on. Boy, am I delirious? I have a special
- 2:07:42Speaker 13: at nine o'clock Amusination about heroes and villains in a
- 2:07:45Speaker 13: revolutionary war. Not the people that you know, okay, the people.
- 2:07:51Speaker 13: And this pertains exactly to today. Fifty percent of the
- 2:07:56Speaker 13: colonists didn't want to leave the king, Okay, they wanted
- 2:08:00Speaker 13: to stay. No matter how he abused the colonists, they
- 2:08:04Speaker 13: were not willing to move out of it. And we
- 2:08:09Speaker 13: have a large segment of the population today that votes
- 2:08:14Speaker 13: for destructive people. So Cuomo last night was saying, well,
- 2:08:21Speaker 13: you know, the Democrats are going to lock down the midterms,
- 2:08:23Speaker 13: are going to win the midterms because now we have
- 2:08:25Speaker 13: this money stuff going into Trump and people aren't going.
- 2:08:28Speaker 16: To like that.
- 2:08:29Speaker 13: And I looked at him and I said, what you're
- 2:08:32Speaker 13: not understanding here is that people aren't going to vote
- 2:08:37Speaker 13: all right ideology. They're going to vote in November on
- 2:08:44Speaker 13: who's going to protect them from Mamdani from AOC from
- 2:08:51Speaker 13: these loons in the New York Congressional delegation. Most Americans
- 2:09:00Speaker 13: know this is bad, and they may not like the
- 2:09:05Speaker 13: way that Donald Trump is conducting himself. I think you
- 2:09:09Speaker 13: could make a point that maybe he modifies a little bit. Okay,
- 2:09:14Speaker 13: but the threat from the far left, and they're not socialists,
- 2:09:18Speaker 13: they're communists. Every single one of them wants to control
- 2:09:23Speaker 13: the means of production. Now again, I mean, teach your
- 2:09:27Speaker 13: stuff at school. People don't know what does that mean
- 2:09:30Speaker 13: means of production?
- 2:09:31Speaker 14: You know?
- 2:09:32Speaker 13: Is that a band? Aren't they playing with Santana? Means
- 2:09:35Speaker 13: a production? They don't know. But they feel that this
- 2:09:42Speaker 13: malevolency that is rising in the urban centers is not
- 2:09:49Speaker 13: what they want. There's only one candidate protecting them from that.
- 2:09:58Speaker 13: That puts this election in a totally different context.
- 2:10:03Speaker 1: So what if you're wrong? What if America really is
- 2:10:06Speaker 1: ready to make this crazy? It's crazy, it's it's it's
- 2:10:09Speaker 1: it's destroy the country.
- 2:10:10Speaker 13: Just can't imagine it. Yeah, I've been to every state,
- 2:10:14Speaker 13: every major city. Once you get out of the big
- 2:10:17Speaker 13: urban areas which are controlled by the communists, and you're
- 2:10:23Speaker 13: not going to make in roads there. But once you
- 2:10:25Speaker 13: get out into the rural and suburban areas. When you
- 2:10:29Speaker 13: go up to see your concert at Betha Woods, Yeah, yeah,
- 2:10:32Speaker 13: you're going to have a bunch of liberal people up there,
- 2:10:34Speaker 13: and I'll find but the people who live there don't
- 2:10:39Speaker 13: want ma'am Donnie telling them what they can have.
- 2:10:45Speaker 1: I think you're right.
- 2:10:46Speaker 13: I just want it.
- 2:10:47Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you're right. I'm just I'm just, you know,
- 2:10:49Speaker 1: the more and more these people win, you know, the
- 2:10:52Speaker 1: primary elections. Again, it was just primary, but I believe
- 2:10:55Speaker 1: they're all going to win anyway, come Ge, come November.
- 2:10:58Speaker 1: What we saw in Colorado a couple nights ago, I
- 2:11:00Speaker 1: mean Bill when Hassan Piker, he's a low life, he's
- 2:11:05Speaker 1: a podcast host. He was the one that said to Mom, Donnie,
- 2:11:08Speaker 1: originally America deserved nine to eleven. He's he's out on
- 2:11:12Speaker 1: the streets of Denver campaigning. Bill.
- 2:11:15Speaker 13: What is that only of the people are voting the
- 2:11:19Speaker 13: other eighty are sitting it out because it's a primary.
- 2:11:22Speaker 1: Well, I said this last night. I said, because the
- 2:11:25Speaker 1: same thing happens when it comes to the g unless
- 2:11:26Speaker 1: they won it for Trump. Republicans, we need we not you.
- 2:11:30Speaker 1: I know that's not you, but it's me. We need
- 2:11:32Speaker 1: to do a much better job, we bitch. We complain
- 2:11:36Speaker 1: that we're not voting. Seven percent voted here last Tuesday,
- 2:11:40Speaker 1: seven percent of Democrats obviously, But are Republicans voting?
- 2:11:45Speaker 13: They will in Wyoming, yeah, and they will in Florida.
- 2:11:49Speaker 13: And I think the guy in Texas is going to
- 2:11:51Speaker 13: get waxed. The guy thinks he's got eight genders. I mean,
- 2:11:56Speaker 13: you know, it's almost impossible to pass a vote or
- 2:12:00Speaker 13: ID law when you have eight genders, because you've got
- 2:12:04Speaker 13: so many. You know, what do you got? You got
- 2:12:06Speaker 13: a big, big cardboard thing you bring in. Well, when
- 2:12:10Speaker 13: I was six, I was here. Now I'm Larry, but
- 2:12:14Speaker 13: I was surely, but I didn't like Shirley. So now
- 2:12:17Speaker 13: I'm back to Vinnie. I'm Vinnie now. And there's the
- 2:12:22Speaker 13: guy who's a voting instructor, going, all right, just vote,
- 2:12:25Speaker 13: let vote, get.
- 2:12:26Speaker 1: Out, just vote and get out right? Right? What else happened?
- 2:12:29Speaker 1: I mean, Bill, but you know I got to wrap
- 2:12:30Speaker 1: it up, But I got no one knows the history
- 2:12:33Speaker 1: of this country on this show more than you do.
- 2:12:36Speaker 1: What has happened? Seriously, what's happened?
- 2:12:40Speaker 13: What's happened is two things. Number one, terrible education, policies,
- 2:12:45Speaker 13: so people don't understand what communism is. They don't understand
- 2:12:49Speaker 13: this week is the anniversary of the Korean War nineteen fifty.
- 2:12:53Speaker 13: I don't know what the Korean War is. They don't
- 2:12:55Speaker 13: know why it was fought. They don't know why Vietnam
- 2:12:57Speaker 13: was fought. They don't know what the Cold War was.
- 2:12:59Speaker 13: They don't know anything about Stalin or Marx. They don't
- 2:13:02Speaker 13: know anything.
- 2:13:02Speaker 1: You know, I could prove that to you. My son Gabriel,
- 2:13:05Speaker 1: who loves you, You love him. He goes to high
- 2:13:06Speaker 1: school in New York City. All they teach him about
- 2:13:10Speaker 1: Bill I'm not lying, civil rights and slavery. Nothing about
- 2:13:15Speaker 1: World War two, Vietnam, Korea, all the things you just mentioned.
- 2:13:19Speaker 1: They never learn about that stuff.
- 2:13:21Speaker 13: Even the Revolutionary War and afore the July, which is
- 2:13:24Speaker 13: why we're doing a special tonight right because people don't
- 2:13:27Speaker 13: know anything about it. But that's what they're teaching in
- 2:13:31Speaker 13: New York City is victimization. They want your son to
- 2:13:35Speaker 13: believe that he is a victim of white men like
- 2:13:39Speaker 13: Trump who are making billions in crypto. That's what they're
- 2:13:43Speaker 13: and that's what the television networks do. The second factor
- 2:13:47Speaker 13: is parents. So the parents are spending all their time
- 2:13:52Speaker 13: on the phone or on a golf course or whatever.
- 2:13:55Speaker 13: They're not sitting their kid down for discussions about their
- 2:13:57Speaker 13: countries for the July two fifty. Did you talk to
- 2:14:01Speaker 13: your kid about this? All right? Does he know anything
- 2:14:04Speaker 13: about it? Does he know the sacrifice and blood and treasure? No,
- 2:14:09Speaker 13: fellow Americans, you know for freedom?
- 2:14:12Speaker 14: No?
- 2:14:13Speaker 13: No, no. And that's the parental So the parents delegate
- 2:14:17Speaker 13: all of their responsibility to be a good citizen, all right.
- 2:14:22Speaker 13: And the education system in the urban areas are telling
- 2:14:26Speaker 13: every kid that they're a victim.
- 2:14:28Speaker 1: You're right, well, you just know that.
- 2:14:29Speaker 13: That's why you see this rise. You're seeing this rise
- 2:14:34Speaker 13: because they don't know what the consequences are of not
- 2:14:38Speaker 13: having enough police. They don't know that Mandani wants to
- 2:14:43Speaker 13: control where you live, what you eat. Food is next, ye,
- 2:14:48Speaker 13: all right, He'll slap so many regulations on the grocery
- 2:14:51Speaker 13: stores because he wants you to buy food from the city.
- 2:14:55Speaker 13: This is what communism is. The central government controls everything.
- 2:15:02Speaker 13: And then the wealth tax is coming. We're gonna just
- 2:15:05Speaker 13: seizure private property. We're gonna steal it from you. My god,
- 2:15:10Speaker 13: do you think these kids know that none of it.
- 2:15:12Speaker 1: No, they don't.
- 2:15:14Speaker 13: You take their phone, and they're gonna be upset, right,
- 2:15:16Speaker 13: so man domm he will probably leave that for left.
- 2:15:20Speaker 1: Yeah, I got it. I'm gonna sit down with my
- 2:15:22Speaker 1: kids because they've asked. They want to know more about
- 2:15:24Speaker 1: nine to eleven. It's coming up in a couple of
- 2:15:26Speaker 1: months at twenty five year commemoration, they asked. I was
- 2:15:29Speaker 1: on the air that day, Danielle was working wet by
- 2:15:31Speaker 1: the mPire State Building. They asked, But these kids revolutionary War,
- 2:15:35Speaker 1: even nine to eleven only twenty five years ago, no idea,
- 2:15:39Speaker 1: and for the most part they don't care. And you're right,
- 2:15:41Speaker 1: education and parents. You're an amazing, amazing guy, Bill Orrodley.
- 2:15:46Speaker 1: I couldn't love you more than I do. Thank you
- 2:15:47Speaker 1: so much. It's a great appearance. Thank you.

- 2:16:24Speaker 13: a little bit.

- 2:16:53Speaker 14: Now?
- 2:16:54Speaker 1: That's when they wanted to do it.
- 2:16:56Speaker 14: I don't know that.
- 2:16:58Speaker 1: It was the same day I was going up. I
- 2:17:00Speaker 1: had no idea, So I know it's stupid. God, maybe
- 2:17:04Speaker 1: I'll just cancel. I don't know, it's nothing in pain
- 2:17:07Speaker 1: for the whole weekend. Yeah, it hurts. I may just cancel,
- 2:17:12Speaker 1: but that have this twenty four hour I don't know.
- 2:17:14Speaker 1: I'm really mad at Justin too so because Scott Lebato
- 2:17:18Speaker 1: just sent me a very nasty text. Really no, not
- 2:17:21Speaker 1: really being rejected, but every week were you talking about.
- 2:17:31Speaker 1: I was in Israel last week. You canceled two weeks ago.
- 2:17:35Speaker 1: But we'll see about the dentist. And then if I
- 2:17:38Speaker 1: go to the dentist and my daughter and son both
- 2:17:41Speaker 1: have friends coming up state, it's a whole mess.
- 2:17:44Speaker 10: Well what does that got to do with your teeth
- 2:17:46Speaker 10: being cleaned?
- 2:17:46Speaker 4: No?
- 2:17:47Speaker 1: Nothing, I just felt like complaining about my teeth. It's
- 2:17:49Speaker 1: the same guy that took my teeth out last month.
- 2:17:53Speaker 1: Now they're gonna it's a girl now though, she's the
- 2:17:56Speaker 1: what do you call that person? Genus? Yeah, yeah, her, Yeah,
- 2:18:00Speaker 1: she's Ukrainian. She barely speaks English, but she understands Ouch.
- 2:18:09Speaker 2: So Sid and Friends in the morning on the Red
- 2:18:14Speaker 2: Apple podcast network.
- 2:18:16Speaker 1: We certainly talk about all the issues we've got in
- 2:18:19Speaker 1: this city with a horrible radical Islam Jiahadmeyer. He's a
- 2:18:23Speaker 1: bad guy. He's a very very bad guy. Okay, And
- 2:18:27Speaker 1: across the country they have a lot of issues. We do,
- 2:18:30Speaker 1: we do, but don't lose sight of the fact that
- 2:18:34Speaker 1: this is and there really is no close second anymore.
- 2:18:39Speaker 1: This is the greatest country in the world. There is
- 2:18:42Speaker 1: no close second. And I would say that, even as
- 2:18:46Speaker 1: I mentioned two hours ago, if Joe Biden was still
- 2:18:49Speaker 1: the president, that walking cadaver, that crooked, corrupt, feeble fool,
- 2:18:57Speaker 1: even when the US president was still the greatest country.
- 2:19:00Speaker 1: Certainly now with President Donald J. Trump, we are and
- 2:19:03Speaker 1: you know how much I love Trump. I'm also not
- 2:19:06Speaker 1: afraid to criticize Trump. I think that's why this show
- 2:19:09Speaker 1: has more credibility than most. And I may be wrong
- 2:19:13Speaker 1: in my criticism. I don't know. I don't know, but
- 2:19:16Speaker 1: I'm not afraid to do it. But he's still a
- 2:19:19Speaker 1: magnificent president, and we still are the best country in
- 2:19:22Speaker 1: the world. I'm gonna go upstate this weekend and see
- 2:19:26Speaker 1: my ninety one year old mother. She loves this country,
- 2:19:29Speaker 1: she loves Trump. I'm gonna go see a concert with
- 2:19:32Speaker 1: a bunch of people having a great time, the Dobie
- 2:19:34Speaker 1: Brothers and Santana. I'm gonna be with my children and
- 2:19:38Speaker 1: my children's friends, and my family, wife and brothers, brother
- 2:19:42Speaker 1: laws and sisters, and We're all going to celebrate together
- 2:19:47Speaker 1: because even through our differences, the divided States of America,
- 2:19:52Speaker 1: most of us. I'm not talking about the lunatics, the
- 2:19:55Speaker 1: DSA lunatics on the left. What he do hate this country?
- 2:19:58Speaker 1: Hassan Piker, that lady in Colorado a couple of nights ago,
- 2:20:02Speaker 1: the psychos that won here last Tuesday. They really do
- 2:20:05Speaker 1: have disdained for this country.
- 2:20:07Speaker 14: They do.
- 2:20:09Speaker 1: I don't know why. Most of them are doing pretty well,
- 2:20:11Speaker 1: including Brad Lander, but they do. But the overwhelming majority
- 2:20:14Speaker 1: of Americans, even the ones that are upset, they know
- 2:20:20Speaker 1: and to a brieve, men and women that are out
- 2:20:25Speaker 1: somewhere alone this weekend in some country defending us so
- 2:20:30Speaker 1: we can enjoy Saturday. I think it's important we thank
- 2:20:34Speaker 1: them too. It's not Veterans Day, it's not Memorial Day.
- 2:20:38Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. When you talk about the freedoms we
- 2:20:41Speaker 1: enjoy in this country for now two hundred and fifty years,
- 2:20:45Speaker 1: it goes back to them, the military of the veterans.
- 2:20:47Speaker 1: Thank you, Greg Kelly, thank you, Chad Lopez, thank you
