  Speaker 1: Now, 710WOR presents The Mark Simone Show. Hey, it's Friday. Yeah,
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: it's Friday. Well, we've got a lot to get to.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: This ice shooting was an awful incident last night, but
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: what really happened, we'll get to that. We'll get to Iran.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: We'll get to the firing squad that's going to take
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: place today. Yeah, right here in the United States. We'll
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: get to Crazy Mayor Mamdani. We'll get to Bruce Blakeman. Actually,
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: he'll be with us. And we'll get to the debates,
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: a couple of big debates last night. Now, last night
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: there was this ICE shooting in Marble Hill in the Bronx. Naturally,
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: Mayor Mamdani jumps to conclusions, goes off half-cocked, knee-jerk reaction.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: The officers, the ICE officers, now according to them, we've
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: got to wait until we get the actual Full details.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: There might be body cam footage. Apparently the New York
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: City surveillance cameras that are everywhere didn't capture the actual shooting.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: But what ICE is saying, and if this is correct,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: it was a justified shooting. You can hear a lot
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: of Democrats yelling and screaming about ICE. But what the
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: officers are saying is that as they tried to stop
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: the car, the guy in the car, who's a career criminal,
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: with gang ties, career criminal with gang ties. He did
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: have a five-year-old boy in the car with him. It's
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: believed it's his son, but this is a career criminal.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: They've dealt with him before. They're out to arrest him. Now, remember,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: when you're a career criminal, you've already tangled with law
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: enforcement a lot of times, and you've already tangled with ICE.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: You tend to not want to get arrested again. So
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: you might do anything to avoid arrest. So what they're saying,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: ICE is saying, is that as they tried to stop him,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: He took his car and tried to run them over. Now,
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: if that's the case, any law enforcement agency, you're justified
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: in shooting. If he's trying to run you over and
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: kill you with his car, you can shoot. They fired
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: seven shots. There's only one bullet hole in the windshield,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: which would indicate six shots missed the windshield. Now, naturally,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Mamdani has no use for ice, goes off half-cocked, yelling
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: and screaming. about how awful ICE is.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: New York City will not stand by while ICE agents
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: shoot New Yorkers. And we will not back down from
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: the demand that so many, including myself, have put forward
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: time and again. This is an agency that must be abolished.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: ICE is not shooting New Yorkers. What they're doing is
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: they're trying to arrest career criminals, illegals here illegally, who
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: are criminals committing crimes. They're not going after any New Yorkers.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: They're just going after illegals. who aren't supposed to be here,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: and even though they're here illegally, are committing crimes. Mamdani
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: going crazy. I've never seen him that angry. But he
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: was apparently on the phone over a two-hour period, on
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: the phone with President Trump. The guy went to the hospital.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: He was taken to the hospital. Apparently, he wasn't hurt
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: that bad because he was released from the hospital and
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: then taken into ICE custody. Mamdani, one of the things
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: with Trump, Mamdani demanding he be released from to New
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: York City, ICE is not going to do that. Here's
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: his mom and dad.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: For the past two hours, I have been on the
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: phone with President Trump and Secretary Mullen negotiating the release
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: of the man ICE agents shot. Those negotiations were unsuccessful.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: Just moments ago, ICE put the man in an unmarked
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: vehicle and whisked him away.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, which it's supposed to do. Basically, this is just
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: following the law. You've got to follow the law. Whatever U.S.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: law is, that's what you do. And Mamdani just can't
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: seem to... Well, a lot of left-wingers, they think there
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: should be an exception to the law for illegal aliens.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: They just think they should... There's a bunch of laws
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: there they think should not be enforced. Now, the DHS
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: will have a press conference this morning. They'll address this. Now,
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: If there is body cam footage, there should be. Holman
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: had promised all these agents would wear body cameras. But
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: if that's released, that could settle the whole thing instantly. Now,
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: there were no witnesses. There were witnesses that got there
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: after the shooting, just after it. They saw the aftermath
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: of it.
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: ICE agents tried to barricade the guy in his car,
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: a couple of cars, and tried to drive away.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: And they shot at him multiple times with his five-year-old
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: baby in the car. The baby's fine. He's apparently stable
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: in the hospital. But we think that he aligned to
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: us to keep the neighborhood calm. Yeah, he did have
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: a child with him. His mom, Donnie.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: School had just gotten out. The street was crowded with
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: families and children. When ICE agents opened fire, a five-year-old child...
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: A five-year-old child was in the backseat of the car.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: Thank God that child is physically unharmed.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Now, remember, it's possible ICE is totally wrong here.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: There was no reason to fire. We haven't seen this
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: body cam footage. We don't know exactly what happened yet, but...
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: But you get these Mamdani types who are running around
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: yelling and screaming that ICE is a terrorist organization, that
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: they should be taken off the street, they should never
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: be elected. Listen to Mamdani.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: We know that ICE is rotten to its core. Today's
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: shooting is only further devastating confirmation of what we have
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: long known. which is that ICE operates with impunity, that
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: they sow chaos and terror across our country, that they
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: have killed far more of our neighbors than they could
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: ever have claimed to save.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's just total nonsense. ICE has made almost
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: a million arrests, a million. This type of incident that
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: we just saw, how many out of a million? Three.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Three out of a million. It's a pretty good track record.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: Very good track record. So, And I don't think he's
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: aware that most Americans, maybe not right in New York City,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: but most Americans want these laws enforced. They want these illegals.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: And they're not just going after illegals. They're going specifically
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: after illegals who are criminals, who are committing crimes. Most
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: people want them taken off their streets. Somebody who's a robber,
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: a rapist, a gang member. Most people want them taken
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: out of their community. So most people are for ICE.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: But again, Mamdani got really heated. yelling and screaming, and
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: luckily the police commissioner was there just trying to go
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: over the facts.
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: The individual who was shot has been identified as 28-year-old
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: Oscar Belgal. He has two prior arrests in New York City,
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: one for robbery in 2023, in which he pleaded guilty
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: to fourth-degree grand larceny and received five years probation, and
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: one for criminal sale of a controlled substance in 2025,
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: which is still pending. Based on evidence collected at the scene,
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: we know that at least one ICE agent discharged the
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: seven rounds, striking the driver in the neck below his
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: left ear.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: Again, he got out of the hospital. He's now in
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: ICE custody. Well, we'll get back to this. President Trump, busy, busy,
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: busy this weekend. Every day he's going to be traveling somewhere.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: Today he goes to Syracuse to campaign. Now, it's believed
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: that Bruce Blakeman will be there campaigning with him. We'll
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: talk to Bruce Blakeman later on the show. We'll ask him.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: But it would be the first appearance together. So President
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: Trump campaigning in upstate New York today. Tomorrow, Saturday, he
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: goes to Tennessee. Then he goes to Alabama. This is
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: all in the same day. Then he comes back to
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: the White House. Then Sunday, he'll be in Virginia. So
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: it's a busy, busy campaign schedule. Midterms, the president will
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: be working his tail off, going crazy, trying to wrap
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: up the midterms for Republicans. It looks a lot better
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: for Republicans than the public polls are saying. These public polls,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: the metrics are absolutely rigged. They dramatically undersample Republicans in them.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: They don't use likely voters. They use what they call adults,
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: which means whoever they want. They don't use the right demos.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: This is all deliberate. This is all to make it
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: look like it's hopeless. It's to suppress Republican turnout. In
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: the real polls, Republicans, Democrats, it looks pretty much neck
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: and neck. And there's a key factor that you got
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: to look at. Since it's neck and neck, the election
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: will be determined by turnout. Whichever side gets the best
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: turnout wins. Well, right now, turnout looks like it's favoring
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: Republicans because their registration is going up. Whoever recently registered
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: is most likely to turn out. Listen to the CNN pollster.
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: Okay, you see the polling over the last two years
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: really moving in the Democrats' favor, but are they actually
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: gaining in terms of registration, at least compared to where
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: we were two years ago? Well, I think this makes
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: it pretty simple, right? Pretty simple. In Pennsylvania, no.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: North Carolina, no.
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: Nevada, no. Arizona, no. There may be some tiny late
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: gains that are going on right now, right, that I
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: think over the last month maybe Democrats are getting, but
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: when you take the longer-term view versus the 2024 election
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: in which Republicans won all of these states, Democrats are
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: in fact... not actually gaining.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Ground wow so uh interesting republican turnout uh registration is
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: up in a lot of places so hey there were
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: two big debates last night now nobody uh saw the
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: attorney general debate because it was on new york one
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: nobody sees new york one the democrats are deliberately refusing
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: to do debates the only thing they'll do is new
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: york one's two reasons one nobody sees it two new
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: york one is the most biased left-wing media outlet in
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: new york totally biased it was leticia james who's up
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: for re-election you can get rid of her this year
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: in 25 days you can get rid of leticia james
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: so she was to Debating the Republican attorney general candidate.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: Very good. Would be a very good attorney general. Vote
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: for the Republican. I tell you her name, but nobody
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: can pronounce it. It's Kamaradi something. But just look for
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: the Republican attorney general candidate. That's who you want. Letitia James.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: And by the way, if you want, you can go
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: on YouTube or somewhere and see this debate last night.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: This Republican candidate was very strong against Letitia James. hit
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: her with some great shots and Letitia James getting backed
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: into a corner, didn't know what to say. So she
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: started making up crap and she started spewing these old lies.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: At one point she even said, President Trump put kids
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: in cages. Now it's New York One, so the moderator
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: naturally didn't say, hey, that's not true. That's a false story.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: It's not true. It's just fake news. I mean, totally
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: just a lie out of the mouth of Letitia James.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: you might be saying, wait, I saw the pictures of
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: the kids in cages. Yeah, there were pictures of that.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: They were all taken in 2008 during the Obama Biden administration.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: That's who put the kids in cages. Those pictures were
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: all done by that Cleveland newspaper, 2008. That's the kids
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: in cages. That was Obama and Biden that did that. Hey,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: later today, there's going to be a firing squad for
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: this terrorist. This is an amazing case. The guy, becomes
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: an officer. He's a military guy on our side, an officer,
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: and then somehow becomes a radical terrorist. He goes nuts
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: on a military base and takes a rifle, a gun,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: and starts shooting everybody. He killed 12 of our soldiers.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: He shot 20 others. I mean, he's an absolute terrorist
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: at Fort Hood. He went absolutely nuts, an army major.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: just went crazy and started shooting our soldiers and killed
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: a lot of them. Well, he was convicted death penalty.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: They've decided in the Trump administration, Pete Hegseth has recommended it.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Trump has approved it. They're going to have a firing squad.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: First one in about a hundred years in the United States.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: There's four or five states that allow firing squads, but
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: they don't really do it. But the firing squad will
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: be today and you can watch it. They're going to
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: stream it. It'll be on YouTube. It'll be on the, uh, Government,
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: the administration, streaming service. You can watch the firing squad today.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: Here's Pete Hegseth. No-brainer.
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: Execution by firing squad. Army major betrays his country. Radical
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: Islamist kills a bunch of Americans at Fort Hood. Of
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: course we're going to do it at Fort Hood. We're
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: going to do it on a Thursday. We're going to
• 13:04
  Speaker 5: do it at 1 o'clock, which is when he did it.
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: And it's going to be soldiers with rifles executing the
• 13:09
  Speaker 5: firing squad. It hadn't been since World War II since
• 13:12
  Speaker 5: we've done that.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: Did he say Thursday? No. Does that mean they already
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: did it? I don't know. But this all happened at
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Fort Hood, so he decided to do it at Fort Hood.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Makes perfect sense. That's exactly what you want to do. So, yeah,
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: there's a lot going on with the races. Oh, there
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: was another big debate last night. Michigan, you know, you
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: got the normal guy, Mike Rogers, the Republican, up against
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: the radical socialist Islam, whatever he is, Mohammed Abdul El-Sayed.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: And it was quite a debate they had last night. Now,
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: the guy is a doctor. You know, there's different kinds
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: of doctors. There's a doctor where you're actually treating patients
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: and you're a doctor. Then there's the other kind of
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: doctor where you're Jill Biden. She was merely an English teacher.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: Nothing wrong with that. That's a great thing to be. But,
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: you know, he keeps saying, Dr. Jill Biden, Dr. Jill Biden.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: She was an English teacher at a community college. You
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: can get a doctorate of education. Monica Crowley is a doctor.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: She's got a PhD, but she doesn't go around calling
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: herself doctor. But some of these people who aren't actually
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: treating patients run around calling themselves doctor. But there were
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: some great moments. Here's Rogers in the debate.
• 14:24
  Speaker 6: What my friend here just wants to do is he's
• 14:26
  Speaker 6: kind of like a glitchy AI chat bot is say
• 14:29
  Speaker 6: the same thing over and over and over again.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: But let me tell you this.
• 14:33
  Speaker 6: He has taken money from groups associated and support the
• 14:37
  Speaker 6: Muslim Brotherhood. He has taken money from individuals on his
• 14:40
  Speaker 6: campaign who openly support Hamas, Hezbollah, Al-Qaeda.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you got that problem. And here's Al-Sayed, the radical
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: nutjob Democratic candidate. I'm going to ask you again tonight,
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: who do you think is a bigger threat to the
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: United States, Israel or Iran? You have 60 seconds.
• 14:56
  Speaker 7: And again, Rick, I'm just going to say that that's
• 14:58
  Speaker 7: a ridiculous hypothetical. Because here's what's happening right now.
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: Our.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: ostensible ally in Israel. Now, it is a ridiculous question.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: Who's a bigger threat, Israel or Iran? Well, obviously Israel
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: is no threat to the United States. Iran is the
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: biggest threat. It's a ridiculous question. He's right. But watch,
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: he doesn't answer it. He can't give the answer.
• 15:16
  Speaker 7: Israel has lobbied us to go to war with Iran.
• 15:21
  Speaker 7: We have watched as Iran has responded by bombing all
• 15:24
  Speaker 7: kinds of countries in the Middle East and then choking
• 15:27
  Speaker 7: off the world's energy supply. So, This is a situation
• 15:31
  Speaker 7: in which I don't think we should be apart. I
• 15:33
  Speaker 7: don't want to be pushed into war by Israel.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Our problem is we don't have the best clip
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: from the debate, which was he kept calling himself doctor.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: He's Dr. El-Sayed. As a doctor, you know, as a doctor.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: He's a doctor, as a doctor. Doing this all night.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: At one point, Rogers said, keeps calling himself a doctor.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: Do you know that if a patient came into his
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: office and he treated the patient, he could go to jail?
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: He's not a licensed physician. He's got the title of
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: doctor with a Ph.D., whatever, some medical training. But he's
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: not a physician. He's not a doctor. But Rogers was great.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: We'll see what that does. The race, believe it or not,
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: is neck and neck. Al-Sayed has had everybody coming in,
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: even Obama, everybody coming in to campaign for him. Anyway,
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: we've got a lot more to get to, lots to
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: talk about this morning. It's Mark Simone here. Three hours
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: every day, 9 to noon, 9 to noon every day,
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: here on 710WOR.
