0:40
Speaker 3: These little monster These kids are all over the hallways,
0:45
Speaker 3: running around, sometimes getting a little loud, so you might
0:47
Speaker 3: hear some noise here and there. I guess it's bring
0:49
Speaker 3: your kids to work day everywhere. And is it all
0:55
Speaker 3: day the whole Yeah, And I saw that, Yeah, I
0:59
Speaker 3: saw that memos like eleven to two or something. It's

Speaker 3: not even anywhere near eleven, and they're already all here.
1:04
Speaker 3: But and normally we have all these buffets outside. There's
1:10
Speaker 3: the Q one O four buffet, there's the Elvis Duran buffet.
1:13
Speaker 3: There's the Charlemagne buffet. They're all I noticed. There's no
1:15
Speaker 3: food anywhere in this floor right now? Is that because
1:18
Speaker 3: these little kids will eat it all up in a second.
1:20
Speaker 3: It wouldn't last two seconds. Elvis is celebrating thirty years
1:27
Speaker 3: on the air, oh, thirty years of the Morning Show.
1:29
Speaker 3: But before that, of course he was a big gazy
1:32
Speaker 3: one hundred figure and thirty years on the Morning Show.
1:36
Speaker 3: And of course you got Jim Kurr down the hall
1:39
Speaker 3: fifty years and all this stuff going on. So let's
1:44
Speaker 3: get to everything going on in the world. Let's just
1:47
Speaker 3: quickly run down and ran two. We like to instead
1:50
Speaker 3: of you having to read a million articles watch a
1:53
Speaker 3: thousand shows, we just boil it all down, give you
1:55
Speaker 3: exactly what you need to know with some inside stuff
1:58
Speaker 3: thrown in. Save you a lot of time listening to
2:01
Speaker 3: this show. So right now, the Strait of Hormoose is
2:05
Speaker 3: under our control, despite what Iran says we're controlling the
2:09
Speaker 3: Strait of Hormose. Iran is putting out videos pretending that
2:12
Speaker 3: they have some authority in the strait, showing them attacking
2:16
Speaker 3: a couple of boats. They were little, tiny boats, not
2:19
Speaker 3: our boats. One was, I don't know they were from
2:21
Speaker 3: two little obscure boats were in the Strait and Iran
2:25
Speaker 3: attacked them, were not able to do much to them.
2:29
Speaker 3: They put out these videos trying to look like ferocious,
2:33
Speaker 3: like the most incredible military operation, showing them boarding the ship,
2:38
Speaker 3: but you'll see them online the worst videos you've ever seen.
2:43
Speaker 3: The couple of Iranians trying to board the ship, throw
2:46
Speaker 3: a ladder up, it's like a rope ladder, and try
2:49
Speaker 3: to climb up on this rope ladder that looks like
2:52
Speaker 3: a bunch of kids made it. And they have these
2:54
Speaker 3: uniforms with these masks, look like they're cheap, little Halloween
2:58
Speaker 3: costume military. So it's quite pathetic. Actually, do you see
3:03
Speaker 3: the video that we put out when we took that
3:05
Speaker 3: tanker the other day, first missile we fired went right
3:09
Speaker 3: through the engine, completely disabling the ship. Helicopters over the
3:13
Speaker 3: ship are marines and seals repelled down out of the
3:17
Speaker 3: deck of the ship. The entire deck of the entire
3:20
Speaker 3: ships US military standing under was much more impressive. Who's
3:23
Speaker 3: actually running this The commander right now, his name as Vahidi,
3:31
Speaker 3: and he's a bad guy. He's you know, when we
3:33
Speaker 3: began the war. We took out the top forty one
3:37
Speaker 3: leaders of Iran all at once. We were having a meeting.
3:42
Speaker 3: Didn't think we'd know about it. We blew them all
3:45
Speaker 3: up in one second. The whole leadership of rand blown
3:48
Speaker 3: up the first day, forty one of them, and that
3:51
Speaker 3: included the leaders of the awful Revolutionary Guard. So down
3:57
Speaker 3: the totem pole, about six levels down is this guy,
4:00
Speaker 3: General Ahmad Vahiti. He's sixty seven years old, so he
4:03
Speaker 3: is now the highest ranking member of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard,
4:08
Speaker 3: the IRGC. He has taken control of the country because
4:12
Speaker 3: he has control of all the military, not the military,
4:15
Speaker 3: but the Republican Guard and the weapons. So he's in control.
4:19
Speaker 3: Even the political leadership can't really do much about him.
4:22
Speaker 3: He's a real extremist, crazy terrorist radical. Remember Solomoni who
4:27
Speaker 3: we took out. This was his partner and all that stuff,
4:31
Speaker 3: the terrorism around the world. So he's basically in charge
4:33
Speaker 3: right now. It's just a matter of time before he's killed.
4:38
Speaker 3: I imagine he's staying way underground and bunkers that sort of stuff.
4:42
Speaker 3: But at some point you're going to wake up one
4:44
Speaker 3: morning and find out we killed him. Very very bad guy.
4:48
Speaker 3: The talks continue. I don't know what will happen with them.
4:51
Speaker 3: We've taken out the entire Iranian navy that was one
4:55
Speaker 3: hundred and fifty nine ships. The whole navy is gone.
4:58
Speaker 3: They do not have a navy. They got these little
5:01
Speaker 3: tiny boats. We call them mosquito boats because they're very
5:04
Speaker 3: tiny and annoying. They're little speed boats and they're equipped
5:08
Speaker 3: with bombs and explosives and that sort of stuff. Some
5:11
Speaker 3: with rocket launchers, some with just TNT dynamite on them,
5:17
Speaker 3: and they all up and down the coast. They're hidden,
5:21
Speaker 3: they're hidden in caves, they're hidden in little places like that.
5:25
Speaker 3: It's believed there could be as much as fifteen hundred
5:27
Speaker 3: of them, but let's say there's a thousand of them.
5:30
Speaker 3: US Navy right now. Anytime they see anything like that,
5:33
Speaker 3: they just blow it up instantly, So anyone that appears
5:36
Speaker 3: out of a cave or off the shore immediately immediately
5:40
Speaker 3: blown up. Now they're little. They call them mosquito boats
5:43
Speaker 3: because they're like mosquitoes. They can't really hurt you, but
5:45
Speaker 3: they're quite annoying and they pinch you here and there.
5:49
Speaker 3: But it's enough for the insurance companies to not allow
5:55
Speaker 3: the tankers to go. We could allow tankers to take
5:57
Speaker 3: oil and move back and forth in the Strait, but
6:00
Speaker 3: they have to have insurance, and the main insurance Lloyd's
6:02
Speaker 3: in London. So right now Lloyd's of London will not
6:05
Speaker 3: ensure any of the tankers because of these little mosquito boats.
6:08
Speaker 3: Even if they don't do much, and even if they
6:10
Speaker 3: just you know, send a little explosive at the side
6:15
Speaker 3: of your ship, it's enough to the insurance company doesn't
6:18
Speaker 3: want have to pay for it. You know, you get
6:19
Speaker 3: a bill for a million to fix it, and they
6:22
Speaker 3: don't want to do that. So but otherwise we have
6:25
Speaker 3: total control of the Straight of hornm Moose. The US
6:27
Speaker 3: Navy is blockading it. As long as it's blockaded, Iran's
6:32
Speaker 3: economy has absolutely stopped. They have no economy. All their
6:36
Speaker 3: revenue comes from the Straight of Hormoose five hundred million
6:39
Speaker 3: a day, about thirteen fifteen, about fifteen billion a month.
6:44
Speaker 3: They got enough money in reserve to go for another
6:48
Speaker 3: few weeks. Some think of maybe a month or two,
6:51
Speaker 3: and then they're completely out of cash. So you'll see
6:54
Speaker 3: now this whole Iran thing, Hey, it's a hell of
6:57
Speaker 3: a gamble. Now, you gotta remember, forget all the democratic propaganda,
7:02
Speaker 3: forget the fake news propaganda. The truth is an Iran.
7:06
Speaker 3: What we're doing there is what everybody on every side
7:10
Speaker 3: of the aisle, every president ever in the last forty
7:12
Speaker 3: five years. It's what everybody wanted. But the reason nobody
7:18
Speaker 3: did it. It's a hell of a gamble trying to
7:20
Speaker 3: pull it off. But you got Donald Trump, who's a
7:24
Speaker 3: business guy, and business guy billionaire entrepreneurs are risk takers.
7:28
Speaker 3: They'll take those kind of gambles, where as a professional
7:31
Speaker 3: politician won't do it. So we'll see. You got to
7:35
Speaker 3: figure in the end it'll pay off. I mean, they
7:37
Speaker 3: really have no cards left. They got these little, tiny
7:40
Speaker 3: mosquito boats and that's about it. If they had any
7:44
Speaker 3: big secret, something that could unleash on us, you would
7:47
Speaker 3: have seen it already. So hey, the other thing people
7:52
Speaker 3: are talking about is the jerry mandering. Democrats have been
7:55
Speaker 3: successful in a couple of places, Texas and now Virginia
7:58
Speaker 3: with that jerry mandering. Republicans do the same thing. So
8:03
Speaker 3: the focus now on Florida and they may just jerry
8:08
Speaker 3: mander a little there, wipe out some Democratic seats in Florida.
8:11
Speaker 3: Republicans have total control of the government in Florida. So
8:15
Speaker 3: Hakeem Jeffries, the low IQ, goofy leader of the House Democrats,
8:21
Speaker 3: Hakim Jeffries is threatening Florida.
8:25
Speaker 4: Or message to Florida Republicans is f around and find
8:28
Speaker 4: out if they go down the road of a DeSantis
8:31
Speaker 4: dummy mander, the Florida Republicans are gonna find themselves in
8:35
Speaker 4: the same situation as Texas Republicans who are on the
8:40
Speaker 4: run right now and under no circumstances. Are Texas Republicans
8:44
Speaker 4: picking up five seats, they'll be fortunate if they get
8:48
Speaker 4: two or three.
8:50
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's not good at sounding tough. When you talk
8:54
Speaker 3: like this, when you sound like a robot and your
8:57
Speaker 3: voice cracks, it's hard to sound tough. But they wrote
9:00
Speaker 3: him up some lines instead of Jerry Manner. He says
9:03
Speaker 3: dummy managering. That's supposed to be good and f around
9:05
Speaker 3: and find out that's a Trump expression or Republican expression.
9:09
Speaker 3: So he's using that now. Is Florida afraid of Jeffreys
9:14
Speaker 3: coming down there? Jeffrey says he'll come down there and
9:16
Speaker 3: try to Jerry Manner. Well, is Florida fraid. Here's Ron DeSantis.
9:21
Speaker 5: Oh Florida, can you do? We're gonna go after Florida.
9:24
Speaker 5: Please be my guest. I will pay for you to
9:26
Speaker 5: come down to Florida and campaign. I'll put you up
9:29
Speaker 5: in the Florida Governor's mansion. We'll take you fishing, We'll
9:33
Speaker 5: do all this stuff. There's nothing that could be better
9:36
Speaker 5: for Republicans in Florida than to see Jeffries, Hakeem Jeffries
9:42
Speaker 5: everywhere around this state. I kind of feel bad for
9:45
Speaker 5: the guy because he's as left as they come. He's
9:48
Speaker 5: always going left, and yet the far left hates him.
9:51
Speaker 5: You know, they call him a dollar store Obama, they
9:54
Speaker 5: call him apac secure, all these different derogatory names that
9:58
Speaker 5: they do, and so he's trying to ingratiate himself with
10:01
Speaker 5: their but they're just not drinking the kool aid.
10:04
Speaker 3: Yeah. So, now, Ron DeSantis doesn't always sound that snappy.
10:08
Speaker 3: He's not the greatest talker, but when it comes to
10:11
Speaker 3: Hakeem Jefferies, that's an easy target. So don't worry about Florida. Now,
10:17
Speaker 3: just a note for the the jentas of mar A Lago.
10:21
Speaker 3: You know, if you go to mar A Lago, this ballroom.
10:22
Speaker 3: Every weekends, these old ladies all dressed up. Are you
10:26
Speaker 3: that crowd? They're very upset. I forget what was three
10:31
Speaker 3: weeks Three weeks ago, something was going on. The President
10:33
Speaker 3: had to remain in Washington, so there's not much going
10:36
Speaker 3: on during the weekend Palm Beach. But on the weekend
10:39
Speaker 3: they're all at mar Alago waiting for Trump to be
10:41
Speaker 3: there a Friday night and all day Saturday and Sunday,
10:43
Speaker 3: and they all chase him around the room. And then
10:46
Speaker 3: last weekend he was not there. So something big last
10:50
Speaker 3: weekend he couldn't be there. This weekend coming up, it's
10:54
Speaker 3: the White House Correspondence Dinner and for the first time
10:57
Speaker 3: ever as president, President Trump go to the correspondence dinner.
11:01
Speaker 3: So that's three weeks of no Trump at Mar a
11:06
Speaker 3: Lago three weeks now and those old ladies getting very upset. Now,
11:12
Speaker 3: when is Mother's Day? Is that in two weeks or
11:14
Speaker 3: three weeks? Marlago closes on Mother's Day, closes for the
11:18
Speaker 3: year because you can't be in Palm Beach in the summer.
11:21
Speaker 3: It's just too hot. So it closes. Mother's Day reopens
11:24
Speaker 3: around Halloween. So just a warning those oldientas from mar Laga.
11:30
Speaker 3: They all come up here for the summer, so starting
11:34
Speaker 3: the middle of May, you're going to see it. They'll
11:35
Speaker 3: all be back clogging up all our restaurants here. Now
11:38
Speaker 3: the White House Correspondence dinner, they've canceled the comedian this year.
11:44
Speaker 3: Usually they have a comedian. It's always a left wing
11:47
Speaker 3: John Stewart. Who's that the idiot they have on the
11:49
Speaker 3: week at John Oliver kind of a you know, partisan,
11:54
Speaker 3: a ridiculously partisan comedian who only attacks one set. It
11:57
Speaker 3: wasn't always that way. Years ago, it was balanced. They'd
12:00
Speaker 3: have like a Jay Leno did it, they do both sides.
12:04
Speaker 3: But then they went totally partisan once Trump came. And
12:08
Speaker 3: because of that, because it was so partisan, so over
12:10
Speaker 3: the top Trump derangement syndrome, Trump wouldn't go as president.
12:14
Speaker 3: I don't blame him, but he's gonna go this year,
12:17
Speaker 3: and a deal has been made. There'll be no left wing, angry,
12:21
Speaker 3: hate filled, left wing comedian. The big star act will
12:24
Speaker 3: be a mentalist Oz. He's very good, very good. He
12:30
Speaker 3: really gets standing ovations. But this is the worst audience
12:35
Speaker 3: in the world. It's all the fake news, it's the
12:37
Speaker 3: White House Correspondence, it's all the MSNBC, CNN types. You know,
12:43
Speaker 3: they're just so it filled with hate and jaded, and
12:45
Speaker 3: they're not kind of pay any attention to Oz. Now,
12:48
Speaker 3: President Trump will then speak. Now, he's the best roaster
12:53
Speaker 3: ever in politics. He's a professionally trained roaster. You know,
12:59
Speaker 3: everybody's been to a roaster too, but he I remember
13:02
Speaker 3: him and I'd say twenty five now more than a
13:04
Speaker 3: thirty five forty friars roast. Those are the most that's
13:08
Speaker 3: the major league of roasting. He was brilliant in those.
13:11
Speaker 3: Then he was in those Comedy Central roasts, the Al
13:14
Speaker 3: Smith dinner, which is a very very formal, fancy white
13:19
Speaker 3: tie and tales kind of but in November he was there.
13:22
Speaker 3: It's really kind of a roast. He got up and
13:24
Speaker 3: he just tore apart everybody in the room. It was hysterical.
13:28
Speaker 3: It was funny. Even Democrats had to laugh, it was
13:31
Speaker 3: so funny. So he's a great roaster. So he will
13:33
Speaker 3: go after all of these fake news figures in the room. Now,
13:39
Speaker 3: there's a letter that's been signed by two hundred and
13:42
Speaker 3: fifty journalists, as they call themselves, Dan Rather and all
13:47
Speaker 3: the old guys of Sam Donaldson. They've all signed it
13:50
Speaker 3: that we must forcibly oppose him at the dinner. I
13:54
Speaker 3: don't know what that means, forcibly opposed him. I don't
13:58
Speaker 3: think they mean physically. I think they mean boo or
14:02
Speaker 3: scream or heck or something like that. Bill O'Reilly, I
14:05
Speaker 3: remember he was on the show yesterday or Tuesday. He
14:08
Speaker 3: said he's going down there and he'll be the bouncer.
14:10
Speaker 3: If anybody starts any trouble, don't laugh. Bill O'Reilly used
14:15
Speaker 3: to be a professional bouncer. He was a real bouncer
14:19
Speaker 3: at some pretty tough places as a remember the wreck Bar.
14:24
Speaker 3: At the wreck Bar in Miami way back when was
14:28
Speaker 3: like the how do you describe it? It was a rough,
14:33
Speaker 3: rough club. It was like a very hot club, but
14:35
Speaker 3: it was actually owned by the mob. But he he
14:39
Speaker 3: was the bouncer there. So and Jimmy Kimmel has been
14:43
Speaker 3: behind the scenes begging to be the comedian at this
14:46
Speaker 3: year's White House Correspondence dinner. They want nothing to do
14:48
Speaker 3: with Jimmy Kimmel. Kimmel arguing that him and Trump in
14:52
Speaker 3: the same room would be the biggest ratings thing in
14:54
Speaker 3: the world. But it's not about Ray. This is not
14:56
Speaker 3: a TV show. It's a gala for the been doing
15:00
Speaker 3: it for years. They do run it on the c
15:03
Speaker 3: Span and in the last few years, Fox and other
15:06
Speaker 3: cable networks would show it. But it's not a They
15:08
Speaker 3: don't care about ratings, so there's no Kimmel. It's a
15:11
Speaker 3: big event. All week they have a big events. It's
15:15
Speaker 3: like the Oscars or the Grammys. The week leading up
15:17
Speaker 3: to it, there's a million parties, so they're already all
15:20
Speaker 3: in DC going to these parties. Last night was the
15:22
Speaker 3: French Embassy, these black tie parties, all these daytime lunches,
15:27
Speaker 3: and so it'll be this Saturday. It should be pretty explosive.
15:31
Speaker 3: So we got a lot to get to today. Hey,
15:34
Speaker 3: the Mets curse. Some think it's over it because they
15:37
Speaker 3: won last night. Although they won the game, but they
15:43
Speaker 3: had a player, an important player, seriously injured. He'll be
15:46
Speaker 3: out for a while, So I don't know. Is that
15:47
Speaker 3: still the curse could be. And let's say they now
15:51
Speaker 3: start losing another couple of games. You know, before the
15:56
Speaker 3: Mom Donnie Mister Met incident, they were they won seven
16:01
Speaker 3: out of eleven. Now let's say this period they win
16:05
Speaker 3: one out of eighteen. That's that sounds like the curse
16:07
Speaker 3: is still there, so we'll see. We'll take some calls
16:11
Speaker 3: in a minute. Eight hundred three to two one zero
16:14
Speaker 3: seven ten is the number? Eight hundred three two one
16:18
Speaker 3: zero seven ten.
16:20
Speaker 2: Give WR A bri said on the iHeartRadio app to
16:24
Speaker 2: hear Mark Simone and all the WR hosts in an instance.
16:29
Speaker 2: Now back to the Mark Simon show on WR.
16:34
Speaker 3: Hey, look at that this open lines. I've never seen
16:37
Speaker 3: that before. It's like three open lines, eight hundred If
16:42
Speaker 3: you want to call us eight hundred three two one
16:45
Speaker 3: zero seven ten, eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.
16:50
Speaker 3: Let's go to Andy in New Jersey. Andy, how you doing.
16:54
Speaker 6: Hey, Mark? Our armed forces have very sophisticated helicopter gunships.
17:00
Speaker 6: Why doesn't one of these escort every vessel that we
17:03
Speaker 6: want to get through the strait of her moves? And
17:04
Speaker 6: if a mosquito boat starts approaching, they can blow them
17:07
Speaker 6: out of the water before they can get close enough
17:09
Speaker 6: to do any harm.
17:10
Speaker 3: Oh, we're already, We're already doing that. We have everything
17:13
Speaker 3: we need. Anytime a mosquito boat shows up, we just
17:16
Speaker 3: blow it out of the water. However, the insurance company
17:20
Speaker 3: still won't insure the ship when that stuff is going on.
17:24
Speaker 3: So okay, thanks, yeah, I mean, right now, we could
17:28
Speaker 3: have tankers moving through the strait. We'll just blow up
17:30
Speaker 3: any mosquito boat that comes near it. But they won't
17:32
Speaker 3: move without the insurance, and I don't blame them. It's
17:35
Speaker 3: millions and millions and millions of the cost of the tanker,
17:39
Speaker 3: the cost of the oil on it. So it's millions
17:41
Speaker 3: of dollars. If they don't have the insurance, they're not moving.
17:44
Speaker 3: So right now, it's Alloyd's a London problem. Let's go
17:47
Speaker 3: to uh Carl in Sayerville, New Jersey. Carl, how you
17:51
Speaker 3: doing fine?
17:52
Speaker 7: How are you Mark? You know, it's just selection that
17:55
Speaker 7: they had in Virginias today. I heard they were going
17:57
Speaker 7: to have a problem with the maybe the state Supreme
18:01
Speaker 7: Court going ahead with this. There was some kind of
18:05
Speaker 7: discussion about that. Is that true? Do you know?
18:08
Speaker 3: Yeah, But don't worry about don't worry about Virginia. It was.
18:12
Speaker 3: I mean, the real problem it's not that there's a
18:15
Speaker 3: sentiment towards the public. Sentiment is now for the Democrats.
18:20
Speaker 3: That's not the case. If you look at that race.
18:23
Speaker 3: The Republicans are unorganized down there, there's no machine there's
18:27
Speaker 3: no party. There was no turnout on the Republican side.
18:30
Speaker 3: One thing, the same thing in New York. You see
18:32
Speaker 3: that a lot, and you've seen that in other races,
18:35
Speaker 3: either that Florida race, that Palm Beach race where the
18:38
Speaker 3: Democrat won, there was no turnout on the Republican side.
18:41
Speaker 3: Problem is Democrats are at war, and they're organized, and
18:45
Speaker 3: they're at war, and it's like there's a vote even
18:48
Speaker 3: for a little assemblies whatever it is. The Democrats can
18:52
Speaker 3: get people to the polls like crazy, and Republicans aren't organized,
18:56
Speaker 3: they don't do the problem is Democrats they got nothing
18:59
Speaker 3: to do all they're marching in no King's marches. They're
19:03
Speaker 3: out there throwing things at ice. You know, they're organized,
19:05
Speaker 3: they're ready to go. Republicans are all busy. They got
19:08
Speaker 3: the job, they got a family, they're going to work,
19:11
Speaker 3: they're going to They're busy. They don't have time for
19:13
Speaker 3: all this. So I don't know what you do about that.
19:16
Speaker 3: Let's go to hal in Freeport. Hell, how you doing?
19:19
Speaker 8: Hi?
19:19
Speaker 3: Hey?
19:20
Speaker 8: You doing? They were talking this morning about public urination.
19:25
Speaker 3: I was talking about public urination.
19:27
Speaker 8: Well, you know, when you gotta go, you gotta go.
19:30
Speaker 8: But what they should. Who was on the radio on
19:34
Speaker 8: your station earlier this.
19:35
Speaker 3: Morning, Curtis So He actually said, going into the break
19:39
Speaker 3: coming up next public aronation.
19:42
Speaker 8: Well that's what they're talking about. Anyway. I'm going to
19:45
Speaker 8: solve the problem. All these bikes on the sidewalks that
19:48
Speaker 8: are riding around.
19:51
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I left.
19:53
Speaker 8: Oh okay, these bikes that are riding on the sidewalks.
19:57
Speaker 8: Impound them, strap them to a call ahead on wheels,
20:02
Speaker 8: the call ahead parties and you hail, hail, hail a party, right,
20:09
Speaker 8: and you charge.
20:10
Speaker 3: What the hell's this guy talking about? What's a call ahead?
20:13
Speaker 8: Call ahead? You know, hail ahead?
20:16
Speaker 3: What's a hail ahead?
20:17
Speaker 8: The woman's gotta go tinkle? She called tinkle?
20:23
Speaker 3: What is a call ahead? Does anybody know what a
20:25
Speaker 3: call ahead is?
20:26
Speaker 8: It's a portable party. The guys in Howard Beach over
20:29
Speaker 8: there call ahead?
20:31
Speaker 3: What call have you guys ever heard of a call ahead? No,
20:34
Speaker 3: nobody in here has ever heard of it.
20:35
Speaker 8: It's a company called call Ahead.
20:38
Speaker 3: You mean it's like an uber you call for a party.
20:42
Speaker 8: I'm designing it. When you steal you take the bikes
20:45
Speaker 8: off the streets, that impound them, strap them to up.
20:49
Speaker 3: Ah, that's a great plan. I don't know one thing.
20:52
Speaker 3: That guy said, what the hell? What the hell is
20:55
Speaker 3: he talking?
20:56
Speaker 1: Uh?
20:57
Speaker 3: Call ahead? You know that might I guess that would
21:01
Speaker 3: be a good business. You know, I remember when the
21:03
Speaker 3: people are telling me about Uber. It sounded crazy, But yeah,
21:06
Speaker 3: a company. If you're out there somewhere on the street,
21:09
Speaker 3: you can call them. They'll show right up with a
21:12
Speaker 3: porter partty and you can go and they'll take it away.
21:14
Speaker 3: I guess that's a good business. Let's go to Nick
21:16
Speaker 3: and Westchester. Nick. How you doing?
21:19
Speaker 9: Hi? Mark, I'm calling about Sergeant Durian who was found guilty.
21:25
Speaker 3: Of man guy that threw the cooler at the motorcycle.
21:28
Speaker 3: Great copy out on bail. That's the good.
21:31
Speaker 9: News, right, and the judge reason that he acted recklessly
21:36
Speaker 9: in throwing the cooler at the guy on the on
21:39
Speaker 9: the motorcycle. So my question is the January sixth, there
21:45
Speaker 9: was a shooting by a Lieutenant Bird of the Capitol
21:48
Speaker 9: Police Department of an unarmed woman.
21:52
Speaker 3: And I can anticipate your question. Yeah, there's a double
21:56
Speaker 3: standard here. You get these left wing kook judges. This
21:59
Speaker 3: Capitol Hill Bird shot Ashley Babbitt for no reason at all.
22:03
Speaker 3: She was not doing anything. She was climbing through a window,
22:06
Speaker 3: but there was no reason to shoot her. He just
22:08
Speaker 3: took out his gun, aimed right at her from ten
22:10
Speaker 3: feet away and just shot her, murdered her. An army
22:14
Speaker 3: veteran shot her and killed her. This bird has a
22:17
Speaker 3: history of crazy stuff with his gun, a bad history.
22:21
Speaker 3: One time he fired out his window at cars going.
22:23
Speaker 3: But this guy should be in jail. People have talked
22:26
Speaker 3: to President Trump about doing something about it. And it's
22:28
Speaker 3: the same thing with this. You know, in January sixth,
22:32
Speaker 3: it was trespassing. That's what they were charged with. Disorderly conduct, trespassing,
22:36
Speaker 3: disrupting and proceeding. Normally you get six months or what.
22:41
Speaker 3: It was a double standard. They gave him ten years,
22:43
Speaker 3: twenty years solitary. And it's the same thing here with
22:45
Speaker 3: this crazy judge. Even if Duran were guilty of something,
22:49
Speaker 3: it's not nine years in jail. For instance, the same
22:52
Speaker 3: judge there was a gang member beat a homeless guy
22:55
Speaker 3: to death with his bare hands. He only got like
22:57
Speaker 3: four months. So the judge yearly left wing cook with
23:02
Speaker 3: a ridiculous double standard. Hey, when we come back, the
23:05
Speaker 3: great economist Steve Moore, we'll be with us we'll get
23:08
Speaker 3: to Elizabeth Warren, the Fed and Moore with him coming
23:11
Speaker 3: up on seven to ten wor mark.
23:14
Speaker 1: Themone on seven ten wor.
23:19
Speaker 3: Well, we bring you the smartest people around. Steve Moore,
23:22
Speaker 3: the great economist. You should get his book, The Trump
23:25
Speaker 3: Economic Miracle. It's a great book and you read all
23:29
Speaker 3: of his columns. You can watch him on television, you
23:31
Speaker 3: can go to his He runs the Committee to Unleash

23:44
Speaker 3: Just go to Unleashed Prosperity dot com. Sign up for
23:46
Speaker 3: the hotline Unleash Prosperity dot com. Steve Moore, how you doing.
23:53
Speaker 10: Hey Mark, I'm doing really well. Thanks, looking looking good.
23:56
Speaker 10: We got to get the straighter her moves open. When
23:59
Speaker 10: we do that, we're going to see gas prices back
24:02
Speaker 10: to three dollars a gallon. So I'm feeling really good
24:06
Speaker 10: about things and the world's moving in our direction. But
24:09
Speaker 10: I got to say this, I don't want to bail
24:11
Speaker 10: out Spirit Airline. I don't want a government takeover of
24:14
Speaker 10: that airline. I think it's crazy.
24:17
Speaker 3: Yeah. The only thing that could make an airline like
24:19
Speaker 3: that even worse service wise is the government.
24:21
Speaker 10: Running in Exactly, it's like going to be Amtrak in
24:25
Speaker 10: the sky.
24:27
Speaker 7: It was not.
24:28
Speaker 10: You know, have you noticed the last fifty years they
24:30
Speaker 10: keep saying, oh, you know, profitability is right around the
24:33
Speaker 10: next corner, right, Yeah, we've waited fifty years for that,
24:36
Speaker 10: So you know that's a bad idea. The government should
24:38
Speaker 10: never be in the business. Mark, You know this. The
24:40
Speaker 10: government should never be in the business of bailing out
24:43
Speaker 10: or subsidizing industries. It never works, and it taxpayers always
24:48
Speaker 10: get screwed.
24:48
Speaker 3: Yeah. Hey, why isn't there a revolt about the government
24:53
Speaker 3: overpays for anything they do by ten million percent. Every
24:56
Speaker 3: supermarket tells me it's about two million dollars to open
25:00
Speaker 3: a supermarket, Mom, Donnie's going to open a grocery store,
25:03
Speaker 3: a little one for thirty million. Why do we Why
25:07
Speaker 3: do we let them waste all this money? It's supposed
25:09
Speaker 3: to cost two million.
25:12
Speaker 10: Because socialists have good hearts. It's the more of embrace
25:14
Speaker 10: of socialism, don't you understand that?
25:16
Speaker 6: Mark?
25:16
Speaker 10: I mean, and you know this is worked so well
25:19
Speaker 10: in the Soviet Union. I mean things were so cheap.
25:21
Speaker 10: Of course, you had to wait an hour in line
25:23
Speaker 10: to get in the storm, and when you got in
25:26
Speaker 10: the store the shelves were empty, but boy, everything was
25:30
Speaker 10: so affordable.
25:31
Speaker 3: Yeah. Hey, let's talk about the FED for a moment.
25:34
Speaker 3: Kevin warsh rough hearing, although he handled himself very well,
25:37
Speaker 3: is he going to be our FED chair?
25:39
Speaker 10: Well? Oh, by the way, you know that Larry Cudlow
25:42
Speaker 10: and myself and Art Laugher and Sea Forbes and you know,
25:47
Speaker 10: all the supply side crowd were totally in favor of
25:51
Speaker 10: Kevin worsh I think he is the most qualified FED
25:55
Speaker 10: chairman since Alan Greenspan. He is going to be superb
25:59
Speaker 10: in that job. I don't understand why Democrats are paying
26:02
Speaker 10: pop playing politics with this. I've been in Washingt d
26:05
Speaker 10: C for forty years. It was never political.
26:08
Speaker 7: Now.
26:08
Speaker 10: Look, Trump's a little bit been blamed here too because
26:11
Speaker 10: he and he Andrew Powells don't get along.
26:14
Speaker 3: So well do they.
26:15
Speaker 10: But you know the fact is that this guy is
26:18
Speaker 10: super qualified. He is going to make the dollar as
26:20
Speaker 10: good as goal. He's going to preserve the dollar is
26:24
Speaker 10: the world reserve currency. He's going to restore confidence in
26:27
Speaker 10: the American economy and the American dollar, and that's what
26:29
Speaker 10: we want and that's what we need, and we're going
26:31
Speaker 10: to bring inflation back down to below two percent.
26:34
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you said, I don't understand why they're playing poeties.
26:37
Speaker 3: There's nobody Trump could have appointed that they wouldn't play positives.
26:42
Speaker 10: Oh, I know, that's exactly right, Mark. And this is
26:44
Speaker 10: what's so frustrating is that here this guy super qualified,
26:47
Speaker 10: he's going to do all the right things on the economy.
26:50
Speaker 10: He's not good.
26:50
Speaker 8: Now.
26:51
Speaker 10: Look, Trump's put him in a little tough position because
26:53
Speaker 10: Trump said I want to lower interest rates, and I
26:56
Speaker 10: thought that Kevin handled that very well with the hearing yesterday.
26:59
Speaker 10: He said, no, oh, I'm going to make my own decisions.
27:01
Speaker 10: Trump has never, you know, commanded.
27:03
Speaker 3: Me to lower rates.
27:04
Speaker 10: I mean, everybody knows that's what he wants. But I
27:07
Speaker 10: do believe that Kevin will be independent, and I think
27:10
Speaker 10: he's he's absolutely the perfect choice. And by the way,
27:13
Speaker 10: his qualifications are amazing and there's nobody been more qualified
27:17
Speaker 10: than him, and it just shows everything is political. I
27:20
Speaker 10: just want to make sure people understand this doesn't have
27:23
Speaker 10: this dispute has nothing to do with Kevin worsh It's
27:26
Speaker 10: just the Democrats hate Trump and they're opposed to anything
27:29
Speaker 10: he wants to do, even if it's an America's interest,
27:31
Speaker 10: and it is America's interest to get Kevin worsh in
27:34
Speaker 10: there and to get Jerome Powell out. Jerome Powell has
27:37
Speaker 10: been the most political fed share ever ever because he
27:41
Speaker 10: hates Trump so much.
27:42
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I we hope it's Kevin Worsh. Hey, yesterday
27:48
Speaker 3: the test he had to testify in front of Congress
27:50
Speaker 3: Scott Bessant and these they're yelling at him about tax
27:53
Speaker 3: breaks for the rich, and why are you giving all
27:55
Speaker 3: this month the rich tax cuts for the rich? This
27:58
Speaker 3: is one of the greatest myths of all time, isn't it.
28:01
Speaker 10: It sure is. I mean even the Washington Post, by
28:04
Speaker 10: the way, you know, the Washington Post editorial board, which
28:06
Speaker 10: you know was the most liberal you know, editorial board
28:10
Speaker 10: in the country. Uh, just ten years ago, even they
28:13
Speaker 10: had a big editorial saying it's a myth that, you know,
28:17
Speaker 10: the rich don't pay their fair share. The top one
28:19
Speaker 10: percent pay forty percent of the income tax, you know,
28:22
Speaker 10: almost a record high. And by the way, the middle
28:25
Speaker 10: class got a two thousand dollars to twenty five hundred
28:29
Speaker 10: dollars tax cut in twenty twenty six. So the Democrats,
28:33
Speaker 10: you know, if they had had their way, people would
28:36
Speaker 10: be paying twenty five hundred dollars more in taxes this year.
28:38
Speaker 10: How's that going to make things more affordable?
28:41
Speaker 3: Hey, just go over that again, because if you actually
28:44
Speaker 3: look at the facts, the rich don't pay their fair share.
28:46
Speaker 3: They're paying way beyond their fair share. Say that again.
28:48
Speaker 3: The top one percent pay what.
28:51
Speaker 10: The top one out of one hundred Americans pay almost
28:55
Speaker 10: forty percent of the entire income tax. The top ten
28:58
Speaker 10: percent pay like eighty percent of the income tax. So
29:01
Speaker 10: the what the Washington You know, I've been saying this
29:04
Speaker 10: for years and decades, but now we're in the Washington
29:06
Speaker 10: Post is saying it. We have one of the most
29:08
Speaker 10: progressive tax systems in the country. In fact, you know,
29:11
Speaker 10: we would be much better off if we just had
29:13
Speaker 10: a flat tax. Everybody pays say sixteen, seventeen, eighteen percent.
29:17
Speaker 10: You get a deduction for you and your children, and
29:20
Speaker 10: you don't get all these other crat deductions and loopholes
29:23
Speaker 10: that oftentimes the rich take advantage of and make it
29:26
Speaker 10: really simple. I mean, you know, Steve Forbes, I know
29:28
Speaker 10: you have him on your show a lot. He's the
29:31
Speaker 10: he's the godfather of this idea. You know, think of
29:34
Speaker 10: We wouldn't have to have a massive IRS. We wouldn't
29:36
Speaker 10: have to have you know, thousands and thousands of you know,
29:39
Speaker 10: IRS agents. We wouldn't have to have tax accountants. It
29:42
Speaker 10: would be so simple. You could do it in five
29:44
Speaker 10: minutes and you know, at your bedtimetable.
29:47
Speaker 1: I know.
29:47
Speaker 3: But Democrats would be up in arms. He's trying to
29:49
Speaker 3: get rid of the IRS. He's trying to get rid
29:51
Speaker 3: of our agents.
29:52
Speaker 10: Exactly.
29:54
Speaker 3: Hey, what do we Steve Moore, what are we going
29:56
Speaker 3: to do about this jerrymandering?
29:59
Speaker 10: Oh my god, this is such a disgrace. And by
30:02
Speaker 10: the way, both sides are responsible for this. I'm not
30:05
Speaker 10: going to blame one part of you or the other.
30:07
Speaker 3: They're both.
30:08
Speaker 10: And this is politicians basically using the rules to keep
30:12
Speaker 10: themselves in office. That's what's going on here, and it
30:15
Speaker 10: is outrageous. You know, Democrats love to rail about dangerous
30:18
Speaker 10: democracy and we need representative government and we can't can't
30:22
Speaker 10: dis in franchise voters. That's exactly what this does. Now,
30:25
Speaker 10: what happened in Virginia is probably the most obscene version
30:31
Speaker 10: of this where a state that is, you know, I
30:33
Speaker 10: live in Virginia. So we're fifty three percent Democrats roughly
30:36
Speaker 10: and abut forty six and a half percent Republican something
30:39
Speaker 10: like that. Not not exactly, but that's pretty close. But
30:42
Speaker 10: under their jurymans, eleven seats kind of them will go
30:45
Speaker 10: to Democrats and one will go to Republicans, so they
30:48
Speaker 10: get ninety percent of the state even though they're only
30:51
Speaker 10: fifty three percent of the population.
30:53
Speaker 3: Well, but what we can do about this, I guess
30:55
Speaker 3: Republicans can do it back to them, but that's not
30:57
Speaker 3: really the answer. Shouldn't there be all?
31:01
Speaker 10: Because yeah, so look, what we need to do is
31:05
Speaker 10: just have I don't know how you implement this, but
31:08
Speaker 10: in Iowa, Iowa just has the computers do it. I mean,
31:11
Speaker 10: this is twenty twenty six. The computers can do very
31:14
Speaker 10: compact districts, and you take politics out of it. You know,
31:17
Speaker 10: you basically say, you put as many people in the
31:20
Speaker 10: district as you can that's within the kind of perimeter
31:22
Speaker 10: of the district, so you don't have these these lines
31:25
Speaker 10: that look like snakes going through the U through the district.
31:29
Speaker 10: You know, I'm from Illinois. They have one district that
31:30
Speaker 10: goes all the way from Chicago down to the border
31:33
Speaker 10: of like Arkansas. It's like it's like two hundred and
31:37
Speaker 10: eighty miles away. I mean, those are just outrageous jurymanders
31:42
Speaker 10: and just have a computers pick that, you know, set
31:45
Speaker 10: the perimeters of each district. You take politics out of it.
31:48
Speaker 10: You have people voting with your neighbors. I mean, we
31:50
Speaker 10: had something in the hotline today, I kind of you
31:53
Speaker 10: get the outline by the way, folks, if you don't
31:54
