  Speaker 1: this is the big day. President Trump speaks today at
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: the U.N. Melania Trump also speaking today at the U.N.,
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: With the U.N. General Assembly taking place, these world leaders
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: all over the place, and the president in town at
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: the same time, it's the biggest gridlock nightmare all year
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: in Manhattan. It's total, complete gridlock around Trump Tower, around
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: the U.N. And these world leaders are staying at all
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: the different hotels, the Pierre, the Four Seasons, the St. Regis,
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: the Waldorf. So it causes traffic problems everywhere. And if
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: you've been trying, if you yesterday saw Trump Tower, It
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: is surrounded by garbage trucks. They've lined up millions of
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: garbage trucks as a barrier in case of a car
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: bomb or something like that. And then they've got the
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: streets closed all around Trump Tower. Police, Secret Service everywhere.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: And if you're walking by certain hotels in Manhattan, you're
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: going to see all these black SUVs, not just regular ones,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: Chevy Suburbans, but they're all fixed up. They've got special
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: antennas on the roof. And they all got Virginia and
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: Maryland license plates. These are all the federal cars, Secret
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Service cars, that sort of stuff, all over New York City. UN,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: all the delegates here, UN General Assembly, you cannot get
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: a hooker right now in New York. They're all busy
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: with the UN. They're all doing that right now. The
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: schedule the president has today, he speaks at the UN.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: By the way, they've got times on the schedule. They're
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: completely off schedule here, completely off the schedule. Uh, then
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: the president goes to a meeting with, uh, the prime
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: minister of Denmark, the prime minister of Greenland, and that's
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: where they sign the agreement. We will have total control
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: of Greenland forever. It's permanent. Uh, it's a very, very, very,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: very important, uh, strategic place for us militarily and to
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: protect the, uh, United States from a missile attack and
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: all of that. So that will do the signing. Then
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: he goes from that to a meeting with, uh, the
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: British prime minister, Burgum, who can't stand him, who hates him,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: really hates him. And it's not like a mom Donnie
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: thing where they have a hate, love, love, hate relationship.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: This is a, Hey, so he's got to meet with
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: this guy. Then he goes from that to meeting with
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: the prime minister of Japan. Sounds like a lot of fun. Uh,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: then after that, he goes to a, they don't call
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: it a meeting. They call it a bilateral meeting with
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: the president of Ukraine, Zelensky. Now that's going to be
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: interesting meeting because, um, Remember the first time around, Zelensky
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: sat there like a little stooge with the president slapping
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: him around in front of all the press. You can
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: act like a man, you know, like you're just smacking him.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: And it's different now because Zelensky, give him credit, he
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: built the best drone factories, missile factories in the world.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: He's now making the biggest and best drones on earth
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: by the thousands. He's making unbelievable missiles there. He's got
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: missiles everywhere. that can go thousands of miles farther than
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: our missiles, and he's building them cheaper. So we are
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: going to be turning to him to get weapons now.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: We're going to be restocking and depending on him for weapons.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: So he's got the Zelensky meeting. Then he goes to
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: the Shield of the Americas event. Who knows what the
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: hell that is, this UN committee. Then there's a multilateral
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: meeting with the Gulf Cooperation Council. This is what they
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: do at the UN. They create all these committees and panels,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: and nobody knows what the hell they do. Then about 3.30,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: he gets a break. He goes back to Trump Tower
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: for an hour or two. And this is the first
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: time he's been in Trump Tower. Last night he stayed there.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: First time in a year and a half that he
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: has stayed in Trump Tower. It's kind of small and
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: tiny compared to where he lives now or Mar-a-Lago. But
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: it has tremendous sentimental value. And he's got that office
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: that he spent. 35 years in every day. I'm sure
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: he goes to look at that office. Although, you know,
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: he's not a sentimental guy. I always have pictures of
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: guys we knew or places we used to go. And
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: every time I'd show him to him, I'd say, hey,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: remember this? He'd go, uh-huh. Yeah, one second. Then he'd be,
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: guys like that, they don't look backwards. They only look forwards.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: So then about 7.15 tonight, he goes to the Palace Hotel.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: That's 50th and Madison. That's the hotel right behind St.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: Patrick's Cathedral. And that's where they have the UN General
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Assembly leaders reception. This sounds like about the most boring
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: thing you could ever go to. And that's basically, I
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: actually ducks out of there. You can tell it's boring.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: He only gave it like 20 minutes on the schedule.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Then at 7.40, he's to meet with the acting president
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: of Venezuela, And that should go till 740 till about 830.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: And then 830 heads to the airport and gets the
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: hell out of here. And that'll help ease the traffic
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: a little with the president leaving town. Netanyahu comes in Thursday.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: The president expected to tell off the UN today and
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: urge them to do something about the UN. It's an
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: absolute useless mess of an organization. Gets absolutely nothing done.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Nobody can tell you what the hell the UN does.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: And as Liz Peek reported to us last hour, the
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: UN budget is $ 4 billion a year. But they spend
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: $ 70 billion a year. They just waste money like crazy
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: all over the world. All they do is waste money.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: They're in tremendous financial trouble. The whole thing is a
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: financial disaster at the UN. Have you ever been in
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: the building, the UN building? It is the dumpiest building
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: you've ever seen. It is the dumpiest, most awful building inside.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: It was built in like 1950-something, and they've never done
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: a thing about it since. Everything in there is like,
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: it's like you're in an antique shop, but a bad one.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: It's just old 1960s walls and furniture. It's just as
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: crappy as can be, totally, totally decaying in there. So
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: this UN thing goes on all week with the world leaders.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: As I say, Netanyahu on Thursday, that'll cause a, tremendous
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: security problems. Mamdani threatening to arrest him all over again,
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: which is great because he has absolutely no power to
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: arrest him. And he's not been accused of anything ever
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: by any legitimate court. Well, in Israel, some corruption stuff, accusations.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: But this international criminal court isn't real. It's not an
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: actual court. It has no authority over anything. The U.S.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: not only doesn't recognize it, the U.S. government has actively
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: been trying to shut it down and sanction it for
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: the last couple of years just to get it to
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: go away. It's just a fake thing created by a
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: bunch of mom Donnie's all over the world. Mom Donnie
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: meets with the president. He talked about affordability and that's
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: what mom Donnie does best. Talk about affordability, doing something
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: about it. Well, not so hot, but talking about it.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: He's great doing something about it. He hasn't got a clue.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: He doesn't know what to do about it. So, Now,
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: why did Trump meet with Mamdani? Hey, well, ask Bill O'Reilly.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: He'll be with us later because he's been theorizing. It
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: might be to help Bruce Blakeman a little because Bruce
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Blakeman is doing very well. He's pretty much tied with
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: Kathy Hochul right now and probably on track to beat her.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: So she's been running these attack ads. If you're watching television,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: you see them all over the place about how Bruce
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: Blakeman is so close to Trump and he's MAGA and
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: he's 100% MAGA and they show clips of Blakeman praising
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Look how awful he is with Donald Trump.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: He's too close to Donald Trump. They're terrible attack ads.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: But if you're a Blakeman fan, as most of us are,
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: take it as a compliment. When you see him running
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: attack ads and that many of them every day, spending
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: that much money on those attack ads, it means they're scared.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: It means they've looked at their internal polling and they're
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: very scared. So as long as you see all those
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: vicious attack ads, it means Blakeman is doing very, very well.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: So because they're trying to tie him so much to Trump.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: That could be one of the reasons Trump met with Mamdani,
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: because she's trying to make Trump the total enemy. But
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: as long as he's smiling and arm in arm with Mamdani,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: he doesn't seem like such an enemy anymore. And it's
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: an interesting relationship because it's kind of, I mean, Mamdani
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: claims to hate Donald Trump. I don't think he really does.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: I think he kind of admires Trump. I think when
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: they're alone, he kind of tries to learn from Trump.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Because Mamdani's an ambitious guy, very ambitious guy. Never had
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: a job in his life. Give him credit. He goes
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: from never having a job to being mayor of New York.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: And he'd like to do what Trump did. He'd like
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: to go all the way up the ladder. Now, he
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: wasn't born in this country. He can't actually be president.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: But he could be something. So I think he admires Trump's...
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: skill at advancing in the world. So he's trying to
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: get some of that to rub off on him. And
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: I think Trump, he always thinks he can win somebody over.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: He always thinks that he's the most charming, incredible salesman
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: in the world. Sometimes he is, sometimes he isn't. But
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: I think he thinks he can win Mom Donnie over
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: or maybe push him in the right direction. It's a
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: good thing, actually. He's like a mentor or father-son kind of.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: trying to guide this guy to the right path. And
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: you never know, maybe, maybe he'll pull it off. Um,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: hey you know those flock cameras are all over the
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: place these flock cameras these surveillance cameras license plate readers
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: and video and they keep an eye on they're all
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: over the place there's millions of these flock cameras and
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: if somebody wants to go into the flock system they
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: can see exactly where you were they can See you
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: driving all over the place. And the problem is everybody's
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: searching these things.
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: Cops.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: For instance, just take Long Island. Just take Long Island.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: 3,000 manual searches in one month. 3,000 searches in one month. Now,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: that can't be all crimes being investigated. You know, if
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: somebody wants to look and see where their girlfriend is
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: or what their wife is up to or their husband
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: is up, something like that. But 3,000 searches. through flock
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: cameras just in Long Island in one month. Now, Long Island,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: there's over 700 flock cameras. They go all the way
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: from the Queens border to Montauk, thousands more throughout the
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: five boroughs. There's a D-Flock, that's an activist group, tracking
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: the company's surveillance. Some people want this gone. But if
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: you're not doing anything wrong, what's the difference? A former
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: Nassau prosecutor, who's now a defense attorney, points out the
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: state currently has no laws governing How long that data
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: can be kept, who can access it, or how misuse
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: would be caught. So that's a problem. Now, 60 cops, 6-0,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: 60 cops have been arrested for misusing the flock data.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: Just 18 in Georgia this summer alone, including a police
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: supervisor who used the camera system to track her boyfriend.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: You see, you got to worry about this. But on
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: the other hand, you know, you get one of those
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: Apple AirTags. They're like the size of a quarter. And
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: if you've got a girlfriend or boyfriend, you just hide
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: one under her seat in the car, throw it in
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: their trunk, put it under their seat, whatever. And that way,
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: you can look on your phone, you can see where
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: they are at any time. So there's all, I mean,
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: the flock cameras are one thing, but there's all kinds
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: of technology like that. Some Brooklyn Democratic Party bigwigs getting
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: a little flack because they were raising $ 200, 000 in campaign donations.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: from people that wanted to be judges. You know, a
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: lot of times these judges and judicial candidates buy the nomination. Yeah,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: $ 50, 000 and you can become a judge. You give it
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: to the right party leader and you get nominated. You know,
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: if it's in a district where that party always wins,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: you're the judge. Former Brooklyn Party Chairman Frank Cedio, current
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: chair Rodney's, whatever his name is here, have collected 190,000
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: contributions and payments from more than 90 judges and judicial
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: candidates since 2012. So there's a lot. I don't know
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: why you'd want to be a judge. You know, a
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: lot of these guys used to work in a big
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: law firm. You know, when you work in a big
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: law firm, it's like right over there in one of
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: those beautiful skyscrapers, you have a luxurious office. You get
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: paid a couple million a year working in this law firm.
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: It's great.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: And, I mean, the work's not so much fun, but
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: it's great. They've got all the beautiful offices. the greatest food,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: the greatest this, the greatest beautiful conference room. Then you
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: become a judge. You're sitting in this dumpy, dumpy courthouse
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: all day. I mean, it's really a dump down there.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: There's a crummy cafeteria. So I asked them, why? Why
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: did you give up the law firm? Well, in the
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: law firm, you're working there with 2,000 other people. But
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: when you become the judge, you're the king. You're the
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: absolute king in that courtroom. Everybody has to do what
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: you say. So some people prefer that. And a lot
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: of times, these guys make a fortune in the law
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: firms don't need to work anymore. That crazy Meghan Markle
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: and Harry, they moved to England now, got totally wiped
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: out here, looking for something to do. Now, when they
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: have to fill out a form and it says occupation,
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: what the hell do these two put down? I have
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: no idea, but they don't know what the hell to
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: do with themselves. They're looking for attention, trying to get
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: publicity every day. So Meghan Markle spotted for the first
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: time out out in public in the UK, chatting at
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: a bar with fellow expat Ellen DeGeneres at a pub.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: The two of them, Ellen DeGeneres, who left the U.S.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: Was it over Trump or something? I don't know why.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: She got mad at Trump or something and left. Meghan Markle,
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: totally wiped out, totally unable to find any work.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: In the U.S.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: So the two of them sitting together in the pub
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: with Ellen's wife, Portia, So the three of them, and
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: they're lucky, these three people. They don't need an alarm clock,
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: no reason to get up in the morning. They can
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: sit in the pub. They don't have to have a watch.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: They don't need to know what time it is. They
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: got nothing to do and no place to go. So
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: what would be the point? Hey, we'll take some calls next.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: 800-321-0710 is the number.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: 800-321-0710. 3-2-1-0-7-10.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: The Mark Simone.
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: Show, live from the WOR LifeVac studios.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: Hey, well, let's take some calls. Let's go to Dave
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: in Chicago. Dave, how you doing?
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: Good morning, Mark.
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: I'm feeling a little under the weather, but it's good
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: to speak with you again.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: Second caller today with a cold. Too many of these
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: going around. Go ahead, Dave. Thank you, sir.
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: It was mentioned a little earlier on the broadcast that
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker lost 80 pounds. What I don't
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: understand with these shots to lose weight is, are you
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: a slave to these shots? What happened to diet and exercise?
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: And finally, Mark, to wrap it up, didn't Bill Clinton
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: at the beginning of his first term visit McDonald's every day?
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: He was quite heavy, but he lost the weight through
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: just simple exercise?
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Uh, yeah, that's a good question. Clinton had some very serious, uh,
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: health problems.
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: He was a big McDonald's French fries and he was,
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: it was kind of a pudgy guy, uh, even though
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: memory is always jogging his first term yet still pudgy.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: But then, uh, in later years he had tremendous heart
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: trouble and, uh, you remember he had heart surgery and
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: it didn't go too well. They had to like bring
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: them back and, uh, the surgeon apparently choked, uh, You know,
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: you think, well, if you're the biggest name in the world,
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: you're going to get the finest doctor. Yeah, but you
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: don't realize they can get nervous. The guy choked a little,
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: so they had to clean up some scarring in there. Now,
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: he had a problem. It's medical stuff. It runs in
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: his family, apparently, where the cholesterol just goes totally out
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: of control. So that's why in recent years he eats
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: basically just salads and plants and green stuff, and that's
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: about it. So that helped him lose a lot of weight.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Harry in New Jersey. Harry, how you doing?
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: Thanks, Mark. Thanks for taking my call. I agree with
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: you about 98% of the time, maybe 99. But one thing,
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: you keep on wanting New York to come back. They
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: voted for Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: What are you talking about? I don't know what you're
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: talking about.
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: Well, you always seem to want, which is you want...
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: New York to come back.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: It didn't leave. It's still here. New York is here.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: What do you mean?
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: No, I know. But they voted for Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries,
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: Kathy Hochul, Andrew Cuomo, Bill de Blasio, Mondani.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we know all this. We know all this. What
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: are you trying to say?
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: What?
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: Well, I'm just trying to say when you want to
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: see Manhattan sink into the Hudson River.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: All right. Thanks for calling. Does anybody know what he
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: was talking about?
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: No idea.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Richard in Bayshore. Richard, how are you doing?
• 17:55
  Speaker 5: Morning mark is going to correct an earlier caller uh...
• 17:59
  Speaker 5: in lower manhattan around water street in the eighteen thirties
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: and eighteen forty there was a neighborhood called core leaders
• 18:06
  Speaker 5: hook which was a red light district all the sailors
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: went there for prostitutes and it was very dangerous like
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: the five points from the gang of working.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: In new york movies yeah uh... but uh.
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: you know earlier in the uh... the nineteenth century so uh...
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: angel worker was a union general who drank and womanized
• 18:25
  Speaker 5: but that's, uh, largely an urban legend. He didn't have, Oh, okay.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: So the, they call them hookers, not because of general hooker,
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: but because of this area called the hook, the hook.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 18:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah. It was, uh, based on the geographic shape. It was, uh,
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: a Dutchman named Coralier owned it in the 1600s. And, uh, uh,
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: it's probably down around the South street seaport up to
• 18:47
  Speaker 5: grand street.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: Oh, all right.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: Well, all right.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: That's good. I think your story is probably the correct one.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: It makes more sense that way, but, uh, This came
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: up because you can't get a hooker right now in
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: New York City. UN General Assembly Week is like the
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl for hookers. It's their biggest week. They come
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: in from all over the world for this to take
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: care of these UN General Assembly idiots. So there's no
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: hookers left, and they're not available. Sorry, all you guys
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: out there. You're going to have to wait until next week.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: Let's go to— what' s the name here? Is it Kalman? Kalman,
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: how are you doing?
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: I'm doing— I'm.
• 19:22
  Speaker 5: Doing very well.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: I need about 10 minutes.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: I'm very frustrated because Trump, unless God intervenes, which he
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: has done before, has no chance.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: Slow down.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: Calm down. What's the matter, Kalman? Calm down. What are
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: you upset about?
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: Oh, I'm upset the way the campaign is going.
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: What campaign?
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: He has no chance. The president campaigned for Congress.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: Oh, the midterms.
• 19:47
  Speaker 5: Let me just give you a little background. All right.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: Was advisor to Mario Cuomo. Well, I didn't know how liberal.
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: I was advisor to Elliot.
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: Calm down. The current polling. I'm not talking about the
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: public polls. Forget about the current poll. Thanks for calling.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: the public polling looks very bad. The real polling, the
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: accurate stuff, the internal polling looks pretty good. It doesn't
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: look so bad. We had the best pollster in the
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: world on yesterday. I'm talking about real polls, not the
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: fake public polls. As he said, it's pretty much close
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: in most states, but he's pretty confident. And he explained,
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: the public polls aren't real. They're all rigged. They put
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: Republicans at 23% in the sample instead of 38% like
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: they should be. They don't use likely voters. They use
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: whoever the hell they want. They don't use the right Democrats.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: This is all done deliberately. It's all to suppress Republican vote.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: It's all to get guys like this all panicky and pessimistic.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: But in the real polls, it looks pretty good. Now,
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: whatever the current state is doesn't matter because it's what's
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: going to happen in the next month. Republicans have $ 250
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: million cash to spend on this RNC.
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: $ 250 million.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: The Democrats? have $ 8 million to spend on this. If
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: you want to go to a place like Iowa and
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: change the race, all you got to do is send
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: $ 10 million there, blitz it with ads. It can change things.
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: Democrats don't have any money. They can't do that kind
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: of stuff. Hey, when we come back, we'll talk to
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: Bill O'Reilly. Lots to talk to him about. Coming up,
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: it's Mark Simone here. 9 to noon every day, three
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: hours now. 9 to noon every day on 710WOR. Now
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: nine till noon weekdays. Mark Simone. More Mark. On 710WOR. Well,
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: Bill O'Reilly, of course, the number one TV anchor for decades.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: You know, he's the number one best-selling non-fiction author on Earth,
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: and his latest book is out. You can get it
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: right now. It's Confronting America. It's a powerful book. Takes
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: you through the last few decades of America. Bill O'Reilly's
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: new book. Order it right now. You can go to Amazon.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: Bill O'Reilly.com. and Confronting America. Or just go to BillOReilly.com.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: You can get the book there. You can get his podcast.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: We'll do it live. You can get his YouTube channel.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: You can get the message of the day. Everything is
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: at BillOReilly.com. Bill O'Reilly, how you doing?
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: I'm okay. Busy morning with the Trump speech. All of
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: that stuff, but I'm hanging in. How about you?
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: I'm good. President pretty much telling off the UN, setting
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: them straight. Is it going to do any good? Those
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: guys didn't look like they were listening too carefully.
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: Every nation operates under its own interests, so it's hard
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: to rally anybody to do anything. So I don't expect
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: to be any big changes in NATO or Other nations
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: around the world, they'll continue to operate the way they've
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: been operating. I think Donald Trump knows that. That speech
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: that he gave at the UN was basically for the
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: American public. Say, look, we have accomplished an amazing amount
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: of things. He reels them off. CNN will now go
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: on the air and say, no, he's lying. You know,
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: the merry-go-round just goes around and around. But his speech
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: today was basically tailored to rally Americans to keep him
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: in power in the midterms.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but a big part of the speech, Iran is
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: clearly the bully of the Middle East, he said. Iran
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: is the biggest sponsor of terrorism in the world, stopping
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: them once and for all. That's a no-brainer. What's the
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: argument on that?
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: There really isn't any cogent argument, but it's apathy. So
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: there are many nations in the world don't care whether
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: Iran's chief sponsor of terrorism, as long as the terrorism
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: doesn't come to their country. And then with the nuke thing,
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: that's theoretical, so they go, well, you know, we don't know,
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: and the left-wing American point of view on Iran is
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: that there was no imminent threat. Imminent. Dreams like tomorrow.
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: So people believe what they want to believe. You don't
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: like Donald Trump, you're not going to like the speech,
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: you're not going to like him, no matter what he does.
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: But he is laying out a counterattack for the midterms.
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: And But overseas, I don't expect Iceland to care about
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: what they do in Tehran. They don't.
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: Now let's get to the press ban. It makes sense.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: I understand what he's saying. But he's never going to
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: win that battle, is he? He's going to lose that.
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: No, but he doesn't care whether he wins it.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: He doesn't?
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: He just wanted the statements. And then the Trump administration
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: saw what happened to the AP when they booted them
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: out in February 25, and nothing happened. So the AP sued,
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: but the federal courts just said, well, we'll get to
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: it maybe in five years. And that's the system. So
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: AP is still out on the streets of D.C. roaming around.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: They can't go in. So Trump goes, hey, I'll do
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: it to these three. I had a lot of my
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: peers in the business get angry at me because I
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: wrote a column on Sunday on BillO'Reilly.com and said, look,
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: Trump's not going to win. The Supreme Court's not going
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: to throw the First Amendment out or even carve out
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: corruption against the press. That's not what the Supreme Court does. However,
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: he doesn't have to win. All he wants to do
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: is embarrass these people, and he's got enough ammo to
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: do that. I mean, they suppress the news now. It's
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: not just a matter of misleading O'Reilly and Simone, which
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: is impossible because we've been around too long, but they
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: suppress it. So the good economic numbers that Trump cited
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: today in his speech, lowest poverty rate, highest affluence rate,
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: CNN didn't even report it. That's a pretty big story,
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: I think, to ignore, wouldn't you say?
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: Definitely, yeah. So he could go to court and lay
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: all those out, right? And lay out all the fake
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: news they did broadcast.
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but the judges themselves already know. So they'll be
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: sitting around. And what the discussion has to be is,
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: we know that the American media is corrupt. We also
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: know that Jefferson and Monroe and Benjamin Franklin, not Monroe, Madison, and, uh,
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: Benjamin Franklin didn't want to corrupt. They want an independent press.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: They want a fair press. And now we don't have one.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: So are they still entitled to protections? And the answer
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: is the Supreme court will punt and say, yeah, that's
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: my prediction.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: Uh, Bill O'Reilly, uh, uh, President Trump meets with Mayor Mamdani.
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: I know he always thinks he can win over everybody,
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: he can charm everybody. But what else do you think
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: he was hoping to achieve there?
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: I think that was a play, and I have no
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: evidence to base this on. None. But I think that
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: was a play to help Blakeman beat Hogle. Yeah. So
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: Hogle's entire campaign is... Trump's the devil, and Blakeman is,
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: you know, Satan number two, because he likes Trump. That's
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: her whole campaign. So Trump comes in, and he portrays
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: himself as a kind of nice guy to Mandami and
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: Mandami's supporters, hoping to carve out a few anti-Trump votes. Well,
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: he's not that bad. I don't know if that's a
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: good strategy or not. I don't think I would have
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: done it because Ram Dami is a devil to traditional
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: Republicans and to kind of legitimize him, even though he
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: is the mayor and he won legitimately.
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: But to give him a status of a presidential visit
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: for an hour, I don't know whether I would have
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: done that. Yeah.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: So what is Mamdani's reason for meeting with Trump, who's
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: supposed to be the devil to him?
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: What's the downside for Mamdani? What does he do all day?
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: I don't know what he does. Hey, the president wants
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: a good man where we'll have little canopies. Okay. What's
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: the downside for him? There's no downside for him. Now,
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: you might say, well, maybe some of his supporters will
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: get angry because that he's even in the same room
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: as President Trump. But this is a low, the people
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: behind Mandami, they're not following the news very much. I
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: hate to be condescending, but I believe it's true. So
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: I think he just said, yeah, I'll pick up some
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: status points. This is Mandami. And my people will forget
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: about it three hours after it happened. Huh.
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: And as they walk through Gracie Mansion, you think the
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: president said to Mom Donnie, you got to fix this
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: place up. Why not some gold on the walls? Let
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: me give you the number of my gold guy.
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: Apparently they're going to build a housing project. And again,
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: why not cooperate with that? So you'll remember during COVID
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: that President Trump Cooperated with Andrew Cuomo. Yeah. Remember? Yeah.
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: And Cuomo's request was bring ships into the Hudson River
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: so we can isolate the worst cases. And Trump did.
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: And how many people used the ships?
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: Nobody.
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: No one. Yeah. No one. Now, I don't know whether
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: Cuomo forgot about the ships or... there weren't enough ambulances
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: to get people to the show. I don't know. The
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: traffic was too bad, but the federal government moved this
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: flotilla up because Cuomo wanted it. Andrew Cuomo and nobody
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: used it. Wow.
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: Well, Hey, we're almost out of time. The book, how's
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: the book doing? Bill O'Reilly's new book is fabulous. You've
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: got to read it, Confronting America.
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: Thank you.
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: I appreciate that. We just reordered when you reorder books and,
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: you know, lots of books, then you're doing well. But
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: it's a whole different game than it used to be
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: when I started the Killing series. Killing Lincoln was our first.
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: And now it's a special interest who's buying the books.
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: So I have to tailor my marketing, but I think
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: it's a good book. I mean, if you really care
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: about your country and you want problems to be solved,
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: we solve them. Now, you can disagree, and that's part
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: of the fun of the book. You can disagree, oh,
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: this wouldn't work, or I don't think that's fair, or whatever.
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: But the problems that we talk about in Confronting America,
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: Something Has to Change, are concerns to every one of us.
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: Because we have taken a turn now in this country.
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: We got a radical element in this country that we
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: didn't have maybe five years ago. We got it now.
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: Well, it's a great book. It takes you through the
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: last few decades. It shows you how we got to
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: where we are. You can order it right now. The
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: book is out. Order it. It's Confronting America. You can
