0:12
Speaker 4: You kidding me.
0:14
Speaker 5: I'm wrapped up in these meetings on peace and I
0:17
Speaker 5: said it's between peace and Sid Rosenberg.
0:19
Speaker 2: And I said, let's say Rosenberg.
0:21
Speaker 6: Okay.
0:22
Speaker 7: So potential fallout over Mayor Mam Donnie's tax the Rich plan,
0:27
Speaker 7: one of his social media videos could be impacting a
0:31
Speaker 7: major redevelopment project in Midtown.
0:33
Speaker 8: Andrew Ramos has this story right for Mayor.
0:36
Speaker 6: I said I was going to tax the rich.
0:38
Speaker 9: It's this sixty second social media video starring Mayor Zorn
0:42
Speaker 9: Mam Donnie that may have jeopardized a multi billion dollar project. Citadel,
0:48
Speaker 9: one of the world's largest hedge fund firms, is spearheading
0:51
Speaker 9: the massive redevelopment of three point fifty Park Avenue in Midtown.
0:55
Speaker 9: As part of the mayor's campaign promise to tax the rich.
0:59
Speaker 9: Mam Donnie took a jab at Citadel founder and CEO
1:03
Speaker 9: Ken Griffin.
1:04
Speaker 10: This penthouse we touch on.
1:06
Speaker 6: CEO Ken Griffin WoT for two hundred and thirty eight
1:08
Speaker 6: million dollars.
1:09
Speaker 3: This Pierre to tear tax is specifically designed for the
1:11
Speaker 3: richest of the rich.
1:12
Speaker 9: The city rolled out the ad referencing Governor Hokeles plans
1:16
Speaker 9: for a pied a tier tax, which would target secondary
1:19
Speaker 9: homes worth five million dollars or more. The tax the
1:23
Speaker 9: rich movement has gained steam, with demonstrators filling the lobby
1:28
Speaker 9: of Governor Hokeles Midtown office Thursday when he were taken
1:31
Speaker 9: into custody. Now, in a company wide email to Citadel
1:36
Speaker 9: employees obtained by CBS News New York Chief operating Officer
1:40
Speaker 9: Gerald Beeson said this about the Mayor, it is shameful
1:43
Speaker 9: that he used Ken's name as the example of those
1:46
Speaker 9: who supposedly aren't carrying their fair share of the burdens
1:51
Speaker 9: associated with New York City's often costly and wasteful spending.
1:55
Speaker 9: Beeson went on to outline contributions by Citadel team members
1:58
Speaker 9: over the years in in two point three billion dollars
2:02
Speaker 9: in city and state taxes, also highlighting that the three
2:06
Speaker 9: point fifty Park Avenue redevelopment is set to create six
2:09
Speaker 9: thousand construction jobs and more than fifteen thousand permanent jobs
2:14
Speaker 9: in Midtown.
2:15
Speaker 3: Political analyst J. C.
2:16
Speaker 6: Polanco, what are you doing?
2:18
Speaker 11: Campaign's over your mayor act like it.
2:20
Speaker 9: It's just going to push some further to Florida, to
2:24
Speaker 9: Texas where so.
2:25
Speaker 3: Many of them are taking their companies.
2:27
Speaker 9: As of now, it's unclear if Citadel will indeed be
2:30
Speaker 9: pulling out of this project now.
2:32
Speaker 3: We did reach out to the.
2:34
Speaker 9: Mayor's office earlier to get a response about this situation.
2:37
Speaker 3: We did not here back.
2:39
Speaker 12: With the nation in its second year of a measles
2:41
Speaker 12: outbreak seventeen hundred cases and counting this year alone, lawmakers
2:46
Speaker 12: on both sides of the aisle pummeled HHS Secretary Robert F.
2:50
Speaker 12: Kennedy Junior with questions about the spread and the vaccine
2:55
Speaker 12: that can stop it.
2:56
Speaker 13: Can you please tell us here today what you're going
2:58
Speaker 13: to do to reduce the number of me cases and
3:01
Speaker 13: improve the MMR vaccine vaccination rate.
3:05
Speaker 6: Improve the MMR.
3:07
Speaker 3: We promote the MMR.
3:08
Speaker 14: We advise every child to get the MMR.
3:11
Speaker 15: This summer, we're hosting the World Cup and celebrating America's
3:14
Speaker 15: two hundred and fiftieth birthday. Tourists from all over the
3:17
Speaker 15: world will come to the United States. Unfortunately, some of
3:20
Speaker 15: them will bring vaccine preventable diseases like measles and Unfortunately,
3:24
Speaker 15: our measles immunization rates have fallen, which means that this
3:27
Speaker 15: increases the risk risk of a measles outbreak in the US.
3:31
Speaker 15: What steps is AJS taking to address the outbreaks that
3:35
Speaker 15: may arise from the World Cup and the folks coming here,
3:40
Speaker 15: mister Chairman.
3:40
Speaker 14: We've done better at controlling the measles outbreak than any
3:44
Speaker 14: country in the world. This is a global outbreak. It
3:49
Speaker 14: started before I came to office. Most of eight eighty
3:53
Speaker 14: percent of children effect that are over five years old,
3:55
Speaker 14: which means their decision not to back vaccinate predated my appointment.
4:00
Speaker 14: We have limited that last year to twenty two hundred
4:03
Speaker 14: kys is. Mexico had three times that much with one
4:07
Speaker 14: third of our population. Canada had double that much with
4:11
Speaker 14: one eighth of our population year about one hundred and
4:15
Speaker 14: twenty seven thousand cases the year before. We have a
4:18
Speaker 14: global pandemic. Has nothing to do with me. I wasn't
4:22
Speaker 14: in any of those countries. We should not be compared
4:26
Speaker 14: to have a better job at limiting it in any
4:29
Speaker 14: country in the world. And you can talk to governorment
4:31
Speaker 14: Master about that and Governor Abbot about the health.
4:34
Speaker 3: That we've given them.
4:35
Speaker 14: In Texas, we know how to control the outbreaks.
4:38
Speaker 15: The question was what steps has the administration taken to
4:41
Speaker 15: track the diseases that would come in potentially through these
4:45
Speaker 15: You were pointing out that other countries have outbreaks, which
4:48
Speaker 15: increases the likelihood they will bring that here. And our
4:51
Speaker 15: immunization rates have fallen below ninety five percent.
4:54
Speaker 16: So Springsteen is out on a tour, a Land of
4:58
Speaker 16: Hope and Dreams tour. And here's what he opens with.
5:04
Speaker 17: The Mighty E Street Bands here tonight to call upon
5:08
Speaker 17: the righteous.
5:09
Speaker 6: Power of hor of music, of rocket.
5:13
Speaker 3: Role and dangerous times.
5:18
Speaker 17: We are here in celebration and in defense of our
5:22
Speaker 17: American ideas, democracy, our constitution, our sacred America, promise the America,
5:33
Speaker 17: the America that I love, the American that I've written
5:36
Speaker 17: about for fifty years, and it's been a beacon.
5:39
Speaker 9: Of hope and liberty around the world.
5:43
Speaker 18: The strongly in the.
5:44
Speaker 17: Hands of a corrupt, incommant racist works a treat this administration.
5:54
Speaker 6: Boring.
5:55
Speaker 16: And he couldn't back it up. He couldn't back it up.
5:58
Speaker 16: Springsteen could not back up. If Springsteen sat here for
6:02
Speaker 16: one of our long form will do It Live podcasts,
6:08
Speaker 16: I can guarantee you it would not be a pleasant
6:11
Speaker 16: experience for Bruce Springsteen because he couldn't answer the questions
6:16
Speaker 16: because he doesn't know what he's talking about. But what
6:18
Speaker 16: he does know, it's how to make money. So a
6:22
Speaker 16: local Jersey newspaper tracked down what Springsteen is charging for
6:28
Speaker 16: his top tickets in this Land of Hope and Dreams
6:32
Speaker 16: tour ready in New Jersey, which just happened a couple
6:36
Speaker 16: of days ago. Springsteen charged twenty nine hundred bucks for
6:40
Speaker 16: top New York City twenty eight hundred, DC where I
6:46
Speaker 16: am now eighteen hundred, Chicago twelve hundred. In addition, Springsteen
6:51
Speaker 16: is selling no King's flags in the concourse of the
6:58
Speaker 16: stadiums or the arenas. So Bru's making big bucket off
7:05
Speaker 16: this big buff.
7:07
Speaker 2: Off de scent.
7:08
Speaker 5: Now.
7:09
Speaker 16: I looked around and and maybe he's given some of
7:12
Speaker 16: this money to charity, but we can't find it, and
7:17
Speaker 16: that means it goes in Bruce's pocket. Isn't there something
7:21
Speaker 16: a little taw to you about that?
7:24
Speaker 3: I think there is?
7:26
Speaker 6: Get it?
7:26
Speaker 19: Income fire.
7:32
Speaker 3: Hawks take the lead.
7:34
Speaker 20: Off pensively, and Dyson Daniels has been the best.
7:37
Speaker 6: Defender on Brunson.
7:39
Speaker 3: The Hawks stole one in Game two it's down to
7:43
Speaker 3: the wire here and game for seven seconds left.
7:46
Speaker 21: Clunch him of the ball, crouching, makes it move, crouching
7:49
Speaker 21: off the baseline, He's gotta.
7:51
Speaker 6: Chuck it down the holder. Atlanta takes a too long
8:00
Speaker 6: lead in the series.
8:02
Speaker 22: The reality of it is, and I told them this,
8:04
Speaker 22: it's a seven game series for a reason. You know,
8:08
Speaker 22: stuff's gonna happen. There are plenty of teams have been
8:13
Speaker 22: down one too, you know. Should I even think Oklahoma
8:17
Speaker 22: City was down one to last year and they end
8:20
Speaker 22: up winning winning it. So I'm not saying we're gonna
8:22
Speaker 22: win it or anything like that. But the reality of
8:25
Speaker 22: it is, it's seven games, and you take one game
8:28
Speaker 22: at a time. Each game is its own entity. And
8:30
Speaker 22: that's what I told the group. Now, this should stink
8:34
Speaker 22: because we gave ourselves a chance knowing that we didn't
8:38
Speaker 22: play our best basketball. So it should stink. But we
8:43
Speaker 22: need to feel it and get ready to be locked
8:46
Speaker 22: in for the next game, which we will be. Okay
8:49
Speaker 22: the interview, As you said, offensive line is still work
8:52
Speaker 22: in progress.
8:53
Speaker 18: What does this do for your work in progress?
8:56
Speaker 23: It advances it. You know, we'll have to finish it
8:59
Speaker 23: off of practice, you know, for the next couple of
9:01
Speaker 23: weeks and put it all together. But it's it makes
9:04
Speaker 23: us a lot more stout. It's it's two picks that
9:07
Speaker 23: strengthen us down in the middle, down the middle of
9:09
Speaker 23: our offense, down the middle of our defense. I mean,
9:11
Speaker 23: these are two, These are great players. These are two
9:13
Speaker 23: top five players in this draft. In our opinion, you
9:16
Speaker 23: couldn't do any better. I think Joe probably ran about
9:20
Speaker 23: a zillion mocks.
9:22
Speaker 24: It's maybe.
9:24
Speaker 23: Number, but maybe there was a couple of million, and
9:27
Speaker 23: this one didn't come up. This was not one that
9:30
Speaker 23: was really anticipated, and that just shows you that, you know,
9:33
Speaker 23: reality is stranger.
9:35
Speaker 15: It's fixing the stranger, the reality that's strange.
9:43
Speaker 23: This is this is exciting. This is not expected. This
9:45
Speaker 23: is something that's really a great, a great opportunity for us.
9:49
Speaker 3: I love this song.
9:50
Speaker 6: Electric Blue. Blue. Blue is the big color. Sitting friends
9:55
Speaker 6: in the morning today. The very last piece you heard
9:58
Speaker 6: in that open was the head coach of Big Blue,
10:01
Speaker 6: the football Giants. Blue. That's going to be our color today,
10:05
Speaker 6: even though of course blue represents the disgraced democrats. I'm
10:12
Speaker 6: wearing a red sport jacket toevery I'm wearing blue pants,
10:15
Speaker 6: so I guess I'm playing for both teams, but blue
10:19
Speaker 6: will be the color today. Blue is the color of
10:22
Speaker 6: the Knicks. What a nightmare that was last night. At
10:25
Speaker 6: the end, blue was the color of the Mets. I've
10:28
Speaker 6: got news about Met owner Steve Cohen. The Mets have
10:31
Speaker 6: now won two straight. Don't look now, but they went
10:34
Speaker 6: from a twelve game losing street to the best team
10:36
Speaker 6: in baseball. I guess, I don't know. It is six
10:40
Speaker 6: fourteen on your Friday morning, back on your favorite talk show,
10:43
Speaker 6: Sitting Friends in the morning here in New York, three
10:45
Speaker 6: fourteen am for our listeners listening right now in Los Angeles,
10:50
Speaker 6: and of course one fourteen pm it's lunchtime in Jerusalem
10:54
Speaker 6: and Tel Aviv. And we got a big show coming
10:56
Speaker 6: up today, like seven amazing guests and all at different
11:00
Speaker 6: topics from talking about Blue the cops, right, we know
11:05
Speaker 6: how much attention we pay the cops on this show.
11:08
Speaker 6: I was not there yesterday, but I'm assuming that Scott
11:12
Speaker 6: Monroe's rally on the steps of City Hall for the
11:15
Speaker 6: DEA yesterday went well. So we have a guy coming
11:19
Speaker 6: in who's been on the show a couple of times before.
11:21
Speaker 6: It dates back a couple of years through my friend
11:23
Speaker 6: Jen Kerns. His name is Randy Sutton, and Randy's out
11:28
Speaker 6: there in Las Vegas. He's a retired police lieutenant, but
11:32
Speaker 6: he founded the Wounded Blue Talking about Blue there we go,
11:36
Speaker 6: which improves lives of injured and disabled l eos through support, education, assistance,
11:43
Speaker 6: and legislation. So Randy Sutton wakes up every day trying
11:47
Speaker 6: to figure out how to make an injured cops life better.
11:51
Speaker 3: It's pretty cool, right, No, sounds great?
11:53
Speaker 6: Yeah, So he's also they have a car and this
11:57
Speaker 6: one I haven't figured out exactly what the connection is,
12:02
Speaker 6: but they drove this NASCAR from the West coast all
12:06
Speaker 6: the way here. So at seven o'clock this morning, when
12:10
Speaker 6: Randy Sutton comes on the air, parked outside our studios
12:16

12:36
Speaker 6: is Blair White, and Blair is a very famous conservative transgender.
12:43
Speaker 6: Blair is one of those folks kind of like Caitlin
12:46
Speaker 6: Jenner that is not for all the rules that the left,
12:53
Speaker 6: that the Democrats want to make the transgenders. I don't
12:57
Speaker 6: know if Blair has buyers from and now that she
13:02
Speaker 6: is a girl, if she actually has a morse about
13:06

14:44
Speaker 6: good guest list, hun On, Yeah, that's pretty good, Yeah,
14:46
Speaker 6: pretty diverse. We'll discuss a whole bunch of stuff like
14:49
Speaker 6: you're heard in the open. I mean, you heard the
14:51
Speaker 6: knicks in the open, you heard the giants in the open,
14:55
Speaker 6: you heard about this Ken Griffin story. That's the one
14:57
Speaker 6: for me that I think is the biggest story the day.
15:00
Speaker 6: Here you've got Ken Griffin, who by all accounts is
15:04
Speaker 6: a wonderful guy. I don't know him right, He's in
15:06
Speaker 6: that same category as our great boss. We love him.
15:10
Speaker 6: John Katzmathid's Bill Ackman, that group of multi multi billionaires,
15:15
Speaker 6: and Ken wants to do this big project not far
15:18
Speaker 6: from here at three point fifty Park Avenue, a project
15:22
Speaker 6: that would include six thousand construction jobs, fifteen thousand jobs
15:27
Speaker 6: around the city, and a ton of money in the billions.
15:30
Speaker 6: I believe, manme me, the millions that would go to
15:33
Speaker 6: the city. Ken bought his second apartment or second home
15:39
Speaker 6: for just under three hundred million dollars. That's a pretty
15:43
Speaker 6: swanky place now, just under three hundred million here in
15:47
Speaker 6: New York City and only in New York City or
15:50
Speaker 6: at least Blue cities across America. Because Ken Griffin, God
15:56
Speaker 6: bless him, the CEO of Citadel has worked very very,
16:00
Speaker 6: very very hard, and because Ken Griffin is now enjoying
16:05
Speaker 6: the fruits of his labor, and because Ken Grippin decided
16:10
Speaker 6: to buy here in New York, not Palm beach, not
16:13
Speaker 6: Myrtle Beach, No here in New York because of all
16:17
Speaker 6: those things. According to Mamdannie and kel get ready for
16:21
Speaker 6: this now, bolks, get ready. Ken Griffin is a criminal.
16:26
Speaker 6: He's a criminal because what do you do to criminals.
16:29
Speaker 6: You punish criminals. Now, he may not go to jail,
16:33
Speaker 6: Ken Griffin, but he's being punished. I mean, the rich, rich, rich, rich,
16:40
Speaker 6: rich people in this city already pay the majority of taxes.
16:45
Speaker 6: The numbers keep changing in terms of percentage, but they
16:48
Speaker 6: pay the majority of taxes. Well, that ain't good enough
16:52
Speaker 6: from mister Mamdanie, who's a millionaire himself, or Governor Hokel
16:56
Speaker 6: who's a millionaire herself. So Ken Griffin one of our treasures.
17:02
Speaker 6: I'm proud of the billionaires in New York City. I
17:05
Speaker 6: know how hard it is just to make a decent living.
17:09
Speaker 6: I don't make a great living.
17:10
Speaker 3: I don't.
17:11
Speaker 6: I'm being honest. I don't. Hopefully that's gonna change very
17:15
Speaker 6: very soon. It needs to. But I'm proud of the
17:19
Speaker 6: guys that do make I'm I'm not jealous, I'm not angry.
17:23
Speaker 6: I'm proud of them. I'm proud of John Katzimatitis I'm
17:26
Speaker 6: proud of Ken Griffin, I'm proud of Bill Ackman, and
17:30
Speaker 6: I love the fact that they put a lot of
17:32
Speaker 6: their money back into our city and the city which
17:37
Speaker 6: is already I know the exact number, what the deficit is.
17:42
Speaker 6: It's in the billions. We are dying here. So why
17:45
Speaker 6: would this asshole mayor? That's what I called him, printed
17:49
Speaker 6: Katie Honing, come on now, go ahead, Chris Somemrfel put
17:53
Speaker 6: in Politico, I called him an a hole. Why would
17:57
Speaker 6: this mayor in a city that is believe eating money?
18:01
Speaker 6: We got no money, We got nothing. I mean, we
18:04
Speaker 6: have enough money to have a ticket tape parade for
18:06
Speaker 6: autumns too, which is ridiculous. The fact they're even considering
18:10
Speaker 6: that is a joke. And I love the astronauts. I
18:12
Speaker 6: love what we did, and God bless those people. We
18:15
Speaker 6: don't got a pot to pissing. We're gonna make a
18:17
Speaker 6: ticket tape parade for a bunch of astronauts. I mean,
18:20
Speaker 6: how stupid is this city? Now?
18:22
Speaker 3: The mayor is gonna take.
18:24
Speaker 6: The people that pay the taxes, that put the money
18:28
Speaker 6: back in the system city and state here in New York,
18:32
Speaker 6: that bring jobs to New York City and he's gonna
18:35
Speaker 6: make fun of them in a sixty second video online
18:38
Speaker 6: and expect Ken Grippin to watch laugh. Did Mayor Mom
18:42
Speaker 6: Donny think Ken Griffin was gonna get a chuckle out
18:44
Speaker 6: of it? Well, he doesn't care. Just get out of here, Kenny,
18:49
Speaker 6: take your money and your jobs and all that good stuff,
18:53
Speaker 6: and go to Palm Beach.
18:53
Speaker 3: We don't want you here. We don't want you, we
18:55
Speaker 3: don't need you.
18:56
Speaker 6: We're doing so.
18:57
Speaker 3: Well in New York.
18:58
Speaker 6: I mean, what is this male? What is the what
19:02
Speaker 6: is the strategy? What is the thought process behind the
19:06
Speaker 6: mayor publicly humiliating a guy that has given his blood, sweat,
19:13
Speaker 6: peers and money to New York City? You tell me, no,
19:17
Speaker 6: what is it?
19:17
Speaker 3: Well, if you haven't seen this video, I saw it.
19:20
Speaker 25: So I just want to explain for people who did
19:22
Speaker 25: Mayor Mom Donnie put out the sixty second video where
19:25
Speaker 25: he's standing in front of Ken Griffin's home. He's the
19:28
Speaker 25: CEO of this hedge fund, and he's like basically putting
19:31
Speaker 25: his hands together saying we're going to get his money
19:33
Speaker 25: because of this tax on Pierre Deterere's and he goes
19:37
Speaker 25: after Ken Griffin.
19:37
Speaker 3: Now, Ken Griffin's in the middle.
19:39
Speaker 25: Of negotiating this project that will bring six billion dollars
19:43
Speaker 25: into Middewn Manhattan, And so then Ken Griffin, of course,
19:46
Speaker 25: the video gets back to him and he said, wait
19:48
Speaker 25: a minute, I could build this thing anywhere.
19:50
Speaker 3: I don't need to do it in New York City.
19:52
Speaker 25: And they even put an email out yesterday to a
19:55
Speaker 25: city company wide email to employees saying that it's shameful
20:00
Speaker 25: the mayor used Ken's name as an example of those
20:02
Speaker 25: who haven't been carrying their weight in the cities.
20:04
Speaker 3: That's total nonsense.
20:06
Speaker 6: Well there is. I mean, you know, listen, the way
20:09
Speaker 6: he's thinking is dangerous and Unamerican and stupid. To begin with,
20:15
Speaker 6: Mony just says billionaires are millionaires. That's bad enough, right
20:19
Speaker 6: courtis you like that too, But when you start to
20:23
Speaker 6: actually include people's names, that's downright humiliating. If I was
20:29
Speaker 6: Ken Griffin, I'd be out of here tomorrow, I really would.
20:33
Speaker 6: And I keep saying the same thing over and over again.
20:36
Speaker 6: I was the first to say it. We played the
20:37
Speaker 6: audio yesterday with Josh Hammer and Larry Trump when LARRT.
20:42
Speaker 6: Trump endorsed me for mayor in twenty nine, and her
20:45
Speaker 6: father in law is going to be coming back with
20:47
Speaker 6: the same endorsement soon. Trust me, I'm not even kidding.
20:50
Speaker 6: I'm being serious. But I said on this show weeks
20:54
Speaker 6: ago because I am in recovery, recovering adding and I
20:58
Speaker 6: know that the addict never really has a chance of
21:02
Speaker 6: getting better until the addict, most of the time, hits
21:06
Speaker 6: rock bottom. And now people's rock bottoms are different. They
21:10
Speaker 6: will tell you that if you continue to drink or
21:12
Speaker 6: drug or gamble, whatever you do, that there are three
21:16
Speaker 6: things waiting for you, prison, insanity, or death. None of
21:21
Speaker 6: those are great nome other people's rock bottoms. Maybe they
21:26
Speaker 6: lose their family, they lose their jobs. It's it's different
21:29
Speaker 6: for different people. But when the addict hits rock bottom
21:33
Speaker 6: and says I'm powerless and then asks a higher power
21:37
Speaker 6: could be God, doesn't have to be for help. That's
21:42
Speaker 6: when the addict is on the road to recovery. But
21:45
Speaker 6: the addict has to hit its knees, his or her
21:48
Speaker 6: and hit rock bottom before they can start to enjoy
21:52
Speaker 6: any real recovery. That's what New York needs to be
21:56
Speaker 6: and that's exactly what this mayor is doing. When you
21:59
Speaker 6: use millions, a guy like Ken Griffin, who is in
22:02
Speaker 6: the midst of negotiating a project for six billion dollars
22:06
Speaker 6: in this city, which is just bleeding money. You are
22:11
Speaker 6: eventually going to bring New York to its knees, and
22:14
Speaker 6: that's what we need. I know it sounds nuts because
22:16
Speaker 6: I live here, right. I live in Queens, but I
22:19
Speaker 6: work in Manhattan. My beautiful wife works here in Manhattan.
22:23
Speaker 6: My amazing son goes to school in Manhattan. Ava works
22:27
Speaker 6: for author I Donna in Manhattan. We're all here. We're
22:31
Speaker 6: all here. I can't stand walking the streets every day,
22:34
Speaker 6: every day and people will tell you, no, it's not
22:37
Speaker 6: that bad. They're lying. Junkie after junkie kicking on the train.
22:42
Speaker 6: There's not one car I've been on, and I don't
22:45
Speaker 6: know how long when there's not. Some just disgusting. If
22:48
Speaker 6: it's not a junkie, it's a homeless person. God bless
22:51
Speaker 6: them who made all over themselves peepy and duty. It
22:55
Speaker 6: stinks half naked people all It's just the city is growth.
23:00
Speaker 6: Anybody who tells you different is lying, okay, and it's
23:05
Speaker 6: gonna get worse, And unfortunately that has to be the case.
23:10
Speaker 6: We have to really hope that this guy, Mom, Donnie
23:12
Speaker 6: destroys whatever is left. Look, we had twelve years of
23:16
Speaker 6: bad leadership eight or Bill Deblasio, he may have been
23:19
Speaker 6: the worst ever. This guy's gonna be worse, and not
23:22
Speaker 6: exactly a ban of four years for Eric Adams. I
23:24
Speaker 6: know he feels good about himself these days, but three
23:27
Speaker 6: of those four years he sucked to. So we've got
23:30
Speaker 6: twelve years of pretty lackluster, if not terrible leadership. Here
23:34
Speaker 6: comes this clown and it's gonna get worse. And it
23:38
Speaker 6: needs to get worse because maybe then in twenty twenty
23:41
Speaker 6: nine New Yorkers will wake up. I doubt it, because
23:45
Speaker 6: New Yorkers, I believe, are either stupid or they enjoy
23:48
Speaker 6: the pain. I don't know. I can't figure it out.
23:52
Speaker 6: I can't figure out when New Yorkers continue to vote
23:55
Speaker 6: people into office that harm us, that allow criminals to
23:59
Speaker 6: walk the streets, allow people to raise taxes so the
24:04
Speaker 6: successful leave. Besides the ninety thousand other things, which include
24:11
Speaker 6: religious freedoms, Jewish people can't walk the streets. That's right,
24:15
Speaker 6: Persians are mine. There's no islamophobia. Jewish people can't walk
24:18
Speaker 6: the streets, and New Yorkers just keep coming back for more.
24:24
Speaker 6: So we'll hit on these, we'll hit rock bottom. Maybe
24:27
Speaker 6: Ken Grippin leaves. Maybe John Katzermatidi spends more time in
24:31
Speaker 6: those beautiful buildings in Saint Petersburg. Maybe Bill Lackman decides,
24:36
Speaker 6: you know what, I'm out of here. I don't know.
24:39
Speaker 6: I don't know, but I know this that there's no way,
24:43
Speaker 6: there's no way that we can continue to do this.
24:47
Speaker 6: We can't do it. You know, I can't even say this.
24:50
Speaker 6: Suzanne Miller was on this show last week. She does
24:53
Speaker 6: a great job, big real estate person here in New York.
24:55
Speaker 6: Sheit's got the Miller Report podcast here at ABC, and
24:59
Speaker 6: she talked to about this. Pierre de Tier, Is that
25:02
Speaker 6: how you say.
25:03
Speaker 3: It, Pieta Tar?
25:05
Speaker 6: Whatever, I'm from Brooklyn, not from France. Jesus Christ. Can
25:08
Speaker 6: we get something that says New York and not Paris.
25:11
Speaker 3: He's called second home? Say it again, pied Tar.
25:13
Speaker 6: Right now, that's Hochel's deal, of course, but it's not
25:16
Speaker 6: Hocal's deal. It's Hoche's deal, but it's really not because
25:20
Speaker 6: everybody knows that even though it's hard Deel, she's the governor,
25:23
Speaker 6: that the person that runs this state, which is not
25:27
Speaker 6: supposed to be because the mayor usually runs the city
25:30
Speaker 6: is mam Donni. So Hochel just had to figure out
25:34
Speaker 6: something to make Mam Donnie happy. And that's why you
25:37
Speaker 6: got this second home tax, which is called what again,
25:41
Speaker 6: yeah a tear? Yeah not so. My advice to Ken
25:45
Speaker 6: Griffin is get the hell out of here, shove it
25:47
Speaker 6: up Mamdanni and Hokal's ass, and pray for the rest
25:50
Speaker 6: of us that we somehow make it through the next
25:54
Speaker 6: three plus years. You like that suggestion, though.
25:57
Speaker 25: Well, no, I don't want them to leave. I mean,
25:59
Speaker 25: this is jobs and money for the city that they
26:01
Speaker 25: desperately need.
26:02
Speaker 3: So what he needs to go smooth it over? He
26:04
Speaker 3: ain't s more to get over.
26:05
Speaker 25: I mean, you know, it's almost like he's still running
26:07
Speaker 25: for mayor when he puts these well that's what.
26:09
Speaker 6: That person said. They said, you've already won. Now act
26:11
Speaker 6: like a mayor, right, all the crazy stuff you said,
26:14
Speaker 6: and you've won. Now act like a mayor.
26:16
Speaker 25: I mean to stand in front of ace of a
26:19
Speaker 25: home of somebody who lives in New York City and
26:21
Speaker 25: create this video. That's what worked on the campaign.
26:24
Speaker 3: Trill. That's great.
26:24
Speaker 25: It worked for me one mayor because he was so
26:26
Speaker 25: good on social media. But your mayor now, so you
26:29
Speaker 25: don't need to do those videos anymore. But he apparently
26:32
Speaker 25: still doing them.
26:33
Speaker 6: And he was just on Meet the Press with Kristen
26:36
Speaker 6: Walker last Sunday five days ago, courtesy of NBC, and
26:40
Speaker 6: he doubled down on everything. She asked him plat out,
26:43
Speaker 6: what about socialism? I've never been more confident that socialism
26:49
Speaker 6: is the way to go. You know we said that, right, Yeah,
26:52
Speaker 6: he doubled down on everything. He thinks he's doing a
26:54
Speaker 6: great job. He doesn't care who he offends. Who he
26:58
Speaker 6: pisses off doesn't matter whether it's Ken Griffin or Sid
27:02
Speaker 6: Rosenberg or a rabbi, It doesn't matter to him. He's
27:07
Speaker 6: got his ideologies, his philosophies, his policies, and damn be
27:13
Speaker 6: New York for anybody who gets in his way. So
27:15
Speaker 6: you people out there that are nice to him and
27:18
Speaker 6: tell me he's he's got a nice smile, and he's charming,
27:22
Speaker 6: and he went to a good school. He's a smart guy.
27:24
Speaker 6: Shove it up your ass, Shove it right up there.
27:28
Speaker 3: Okay.
27:28
Speaker 6: He is a dangerous, dangerous, bad guy. He's an't that
27:34
Speaker 6: cop too. I don't know how anybody who's pro cop
27:37
Speaker 6: can tell me that he's a nice guy. This guy
27:39
Speaker 6: couldn't care less if cops died in the streets. So
27:45
Speaker 6: every day's a different story every day with this mayor.
27:49
Speaker 6: It's only been three plus months, it feels like three years,
27:52
Speaker 6: because every day is a different story about how, somehow
27:57
Speaker 6: or some way he is screwing the good people of
28:01
Speaker 6: New York.
28:02
Speaker 3: It's every day. No, no, every day, I feel like
28:04
Speaker 3: it is.
28:05
Speaker 25: We have a story at least a couple of times
28:06
Speaker 25: a week anyway, Just ridiculous.
28:09
Speaker 6: So again, Ken Griffin, to yourself a favor. Get out
28:12
Speaker 6: of here and John go down to Saint Petersburg and no,
28:17
Speaker 6: do a new deal first, of course, but then you
28:19
Speaker 6: can go and Bill Lackman. I don't know what Bill.
28:23
Speaker 6: I guess he has a place in mar Lago. I
28:24
Speaker 6: don't know. Yeah, he's only worth about ten billions.
28:28
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean they have a lot of places.
28:29
Speaker 6: Not just they got a lot of places. They're criminals,
28:33
Speaker 6: they are bad people. They have second homes. Oh my god,
28:36
Speaker 6: they've actually made it. They can buy your second home.
28:39
Speaker 6: And I'm looking as I'm saying all this, I'm looking
28:42
Speaker 6: at this idiotch osay on television who was arrested at
28:47
Speaker 6: this d theft rally in Brooklyn and Betstye a couple
28:51
Speaker 6: of days ago. And I can't stand this guy. And
28:53
Speaker 6: guess who was very very quick, very quick to defend
28:58
Speaker 6: chi Osay a couple of days ago.
29:00
Speaker 3: I'm donnie.
29:01
Speaker 6: He never gets it right. You know, he's got to
29:04
Speaker 6: visit purpose in the hospital, not cops, gone down to
29:07
Speaker 6: Rikers Island, hang out with the criminals, not cops. I
29:11
Speaker 6: just can't figure out what this guy is done right.
29:14
Speaker 6: I asked the same question every single day, and no
29:18
Speaker 6: one has been able to answer it other than well,
29:21
Speaker 6: he's great with the kids.
29:22
Speaker 3: The childcare.
29:24
Speaker 6: How cute was that when he's sang the wheels on
29:26
Speaker 6: the bus go round and round with Barack Obama? Cute cute?
29:31
Speaker 6: I wanted to kill myself. That was vomit inducing. That
29:34
Speaker 6: was awful. But uh okay, childcare. He seems to be
29:39
Speaker 6: on top of that. Free childcare.
29:42
Speaker 3: Now.
29:42
Speaker 6: I met my wife in college. Actually I didn't. I
29:45
Speaker 6: met her at Captain Walters, but we took a class
29:48
Speaker 6: together in college economics. We had an Australian professor. He
29:54
Speaker 6: was really good. He died from a brain too many
29:57
Speaker 6: years later, but I remember half drunk out the night before,
30:01
Speaker 6: on a Friday morning, many many years ago, thirty plus,
30:05
Speaker 6: sitting in the economics class. And the first thing that
30:09
Speaker 6: the professor said to us and Danielle was sitting about
30:12
Speaker 6: five seats away. Who knew that nearly thirty four years
30:16
Speaker 6: later we'd still be married or getting married. And he said, folks,
30:20
Speaker 6: I'm going to tell you this right now, there is
30:24
Speaker 6: no such thing as a free lunch. And I said
30:29
Speaker 6: to myself, what are you talking about? My friend Vinnie
30:32
Speaker 6: want me lunch yesterday? It was free, But I think
30:35
Speaker 6: he meant on a larger scale, there's nothing free. So
30:39
Speaker 6: when Mamdani promises free this and free that to some
30:43
Speaker 6: of these young idiots had voted him in because he
30:46
Speaker 6: was voted in fair and square. There was no Muslim block.
30:50
Speaker 6: They weren't flying in radical Muslims from around the world.
30:54
Speaker 6: He won fair and square. He got this New York
30:58
Speaker 6: crowd in a tizzy. Told you this story many times.
31:02
Speaker 6: I take the ferry home every day. That vote, as
31:05
Speaker 6: Lewis can attach to, is packed with kids from Brooklyn,
31:09
Speaker 6: from Williamsburg, from the city, all young kids and me,
31:13
Speaker 6: I'm a radio guy. So if you sit next to me.
31:16
Speaker 6: I tend to interview you. I just do. And I
31:19
Speaker 6: remember last summer asking all these kids how you're gonna vote?
31:22
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. I didn't say Curtis, couldn't care less.
31:26
Speaker 6: They didn't say Cuomo, they didn't say Eric Adams when
31:29
Speaker 6: he was still in the race. Almost every one of them,
31:32
Speaker 6: in fact, every one of them was enthusiastic in talking
31:35
Speaker 6: about mom Donnie because he promised him pre stop.
31:39
Speaker 3: And I don't like the Jews.
31:40
Speaker 6: I love that, But there's nothing free because for those
31:44
Speaker 6: dopey kids in Williamsburg that think they're getting something for free,
31:47
Speaker 6: which he's already lied about. Last I checked, the buses
31:50
Speaker 6: ain't free. Are they known what exactly has been free
31:53
Speaker 6: so far that he promised?
31:55
Speaker 20: Uh?
31:56
Speaker 6: Nothing zero? But if it does happen, it's not free.
32:00
Speaker 6: Somebody's got to pay for it, and it comes in
32:02
Speaker 6: the way of taxes. And who are the people that
32:04
Speaker 6: pay for that? People like me and I don't make
32:07
Speaker 6: a billion dollars. So excuse me for hating this mayor.
32:15
Speaker 6: I can't think of one thing he's done. He's a hateful,
32:17
Speaker 6: he can't stand Jews, he doesn't like Christians, he wasn't there.
32:21
Speaker 6: When Archbishop Hicks was installed at Saint Patrick's Cathedral, he
32:26
Speaker 6: was not there. He has no issue making sure that
32:31
Speaker 6: you can't celebrate your kid's birthday in a park because
32:34
Speaker 6: he refuses to add police in and around the time
32:37
Speaker 6: of the World Cup. But there were no issues with
32:40
Speaker 6: every Ramadan event that happened in this city for a
32:43
Speaker 6: damn month. Is that not correct?
32:45
Speaker 3: Known that is accurate.
32:49
Speaker 6: But I'm supposed to warm up to this guy. You got,
32:51
Speaker 6: come on, said give him a chance. He won. I
32:53
Speaker 6: don't care if he won. Why Because I'm surrounded by morons.
32:57
Speaker 6: I'm the voice of reason in this city, in this state.
33:01
Speaker 6: Some days I feel like I'm the only one. I
33:03
Speaker 6: know I'm not, But some days I feel like I'm
33:05
Speaker 6: the only one I would even consider running for public office.
33:09
Speaker 6: It's a disaster. Disaster, it's a major pay cut, first
33:13
Speaker 6: of all. On top of that, they go out of
33:16
Speaker 6: their way the competition to ruin your life. They really don't.
33:19
Speaker 6: They go out of the way to ruin your life.
33:21
Speaker 6: And you gotta deal with these idiots in the city council.
33:24
Speaker 6: They don want to deal with that. Twenty four progressive
33:27
Speaker 6: lunatics in the city council. How's that gonna go for me?
33:30
Speaker 6: I don't have a lot of patience. How's that gonna
33:33
Speaker 6: go for me? When chi Osay comes up and says
33:36
Speaker 6: something to me?
33:37
Speaker 3: How's that gonna go? Or these lawmakers?
33:39
Speaker 6: If I've got to go to Albany and deal with
33:40
Speaker 6: people like Andrea Stewart cousins or call hasty, how's that
33:44
Speaker 6: gonna go?
33:45
Speaker 5: No?
33:45
Speaker 6: Not so great?
33:46
Speaker 3: No, well I would.
33:47
Speaker 6: He even consider doing something like this? Because we are
33:52
Speaker 6: ft and not in a good way. No, it's Friday night,
33:56
Speaker 6: We're aft. This guy is the most dangerous politician in
34:01
Speaker 6: my lifetime. Well, how about that. That's a big statement.
34:04
Speaker 6: I just turned fifty nine on Sunday. He's the most
34:07
Speaker 6: dangerous politician in my lifetime. And the Knicks are down
34:13
Speaker 6: two games to one. Now what?
34:15
Speaker 25: No, it's all downhill man. The Knicks down to to one.
34:20
Speaker 25: Next games in Atlanta.
34:22
Speaker 6: Did you watch last night's game?
34:23
Speaker 3: You know, I fell asleep, but I could you know
34:26
Speaker 3: see in the first half they.
34:27
Speaker 25: Weren't gonna wind right. Some's missing there. I can't figure
34:30
Speaker 25: out exactly what.
34:31
Speaker 6: A great team.
34:32
Speaker 3: Maybe that's it. The bottom line is they're not a
34:34
Speaker 3: great team. That's the bottom line. So she should be
34:36
Speaker 3: blowing out the Hawks. It shouldn't be close.
34:38
Speaker 6: They shouldn't be blowing out anybody. Okay, they're not that good.
34:41
Speaker 6: So they'll limp their way past Atlanta and then they
34:44
Speaker 6: will get hammered by Boston in the second round. That'll
34:48
Speaker 6: be it. I'll tell you who the happiest guy in
34:51
Speaker 6: the world is today, Tom Thibodeau, Remember him, Yeah, that
34:55
Speaker 6: port Bystard coached the Knicks. They got better every year.
34:58
Speaker 6: The last year he coached the Knicks, he was two
35:00
Speaker 6: games away from the NBA Finals and they fired him
35:04
Speaker 6: to bring in Mike Brown. And Mike Brown comes in
35:08
Speaker 6: and they're already losing in the first round to an
35:10
Speaker 6: inferior basketball team. So somewhere Tom Tibdoe's going, how's that
35:14
Speaker 6: going for you, mister dole in, mister what's his name again,
35:18
Speaker 6: the former agent who runs a Knicks Leon Rose, how's
35:22
Speaker 6: that going for you? It fired me for Mike Brown.
35:25
Speaker 6: Brown is struggling round one against the Hawks. I had
35:28
Speaker 6: this team literally a pubic hair away from the NBA Finals.
35:32
Speaker 6: Nobody's happier than Tom Tibbodeaux this morning. You know, Helladia,
35:38
Speaker 6: that's what people do. No, no, no, I want their
35:39
Speaker 6: knicks to win. I coached here. I love New York,
35:42
Speaker 6: I love the Gordon. I want them to win.
35:43
Speaker 3: No, you don't.
35:45
Speaker 6: You want them to lose every damn game so they
35:47
Speaker 6: can rule that decision that they got rid of you.
35:50
Speaker 6: That's being honest. It's like a radio host. Nobody wants
35:56
Speaker 6: somebody to sit in and get better ratings or no.
36:00
Speaker 6: The fact that when I'm not here the ratings suck.
36:02
Speaker 6: Love it. You know, you don't want somebody else to succeed.
36:06
Speaker 6: Nobody does.
36:07
Speaker 19: Morrissey has a song called we hate it when our
36:10
Speaker 19: friends become success.
36:12
Speaker 6: Of course, and everybody it's true. But I mean I
36:15
Speaker 6: have friends and I love I'm okay with it. No,
36:18
Speaker 6: you just admitted it.
36:18
Speaker 3: You know, even my friends.
36:20
Speaker 19: Really there's a tinge that's a little bit amused or
36:25
Speaker 19: happy when uh, you know I would have done that better?
36:30
Speaker 6: Yeah, maybe, all right, I don't know, especially yeah, I know, yeah,
36:35
Speaker 6: I don't.
36:36
Speaker 3: Know about that.
36:36
Speaker 6: I've got very successful friends. You know, I don't envy
36:39
Speaker 6: them necessarily. I wish sometimes I was in that same position,
36:44
Speaker 6: but I'm not. That's called enving. Yeah, I don't know
36:47
Speaker 6: if you no, But I'm not mad. I'm not like,
36:51
Speaker 6: oh my god, or you know. I will say this
36:53
Speaker 6: in the radio business, and you know I say this
36:56
Speaker 6: all the time. This is nothing new. There's not a
36:58
Speaker 6: lot of talent. There's not a lot of people on
37:02
Speaker 6: the radio, a lot of radio stations, a lot of podcasts,
37:05
Speaker 6: a lot of way to get your audio content all
37:09
Speaker 6: over the world. I don't believe there's a lot of
37:13
Speaker 6: talent in this business. There's a lot of people, there's
37:16
Speaker 6: not a lot of talent. Folks just say the same thing.
37:20
Speaker 19: Over and over and over.
37:22
Speaker 3: And over and over again.
37:24
Speaker 6: Very few people in this business, in my opinion, are compelling,
37:30
Speaker 6: and very few are able to create their own content.
37:34
Speaker 6: We do that, we did that. Don't But I'm serious
37:41
Speaker 6: when people go, you know, Sid's talking about Mom Donnie
37:44
Speaker 6: and the curse. That was brilliant. There's just so much
37:49
Speaker 6: you can say about Iran. People don't want to hear
37:52
Speaker 6: about this straight of horror moves anymore. Trust me, just
37:56
Speaker 6: that they got tired of hearing about that lovely lady,
37:58
Speaker 6: God rest her soul, Nancy got I don't want to
38:01
Speaker 6: hear it. You got to find a way to keep
38:04
Speaker 6: your audience interested. Be different, and we do that every
38:09
Speaker 6: day on this show. We've got great content and we
38:14
Speaker 6: cover everything. We are the most diverse show in the country.
38:19
Speaker 6: How many of the radio hosts, maybe Klay Travis can
38:21
Speaker 6: do it, I'd have until like Clay's very good, but
38:23
Speaker 6: how many the radio hosts in the country. You can
38:25
Speaker 6: sit here and talk with the President of the United
38:26
Speaker 6: States and then break down the Mets in Minnesota, Yankees
38:30
Speaker 6: and Red Sox, Nickson Hawks in the NFL draft like
38:32
Speaker 6: we can't. Nobody Nobody does that, and we're funny. Morning
38:37
Speaker 6: radio needs to be funny. We got yucks. We got
38:39
Speaker 6: the best impressionist and the funniest guy on radio in
38:43
Speaker 6: lu La Fino. And Norman's hilarious. He's a news guy,
38:47
Speaker 6: but he's hilarious, and Justin's retarded. We play great music
38:54
Speaker 6: all there's nothing we don't do on this show. So
38:59
Speaker 6: I do get MBA when I see radio guys or
39:01
Speaker 6: podcasters making a lot more money than I do when
39:05
Speaker 6: they're not better. If you really think Joe Rogan is
39:08
Speaker 6: more talented than I am, you're a moron. You're a moron.
39:12
Speaker 6: Some boar guy sitting there with some stupid comedian going
39:15
Speaker 6: on and on about a bunch of nonsense. Sometimes he's
39:18
Speaker 6: very very compelling. Sometimes he bores a living daylights out
39:20
Speaker 6: of me. I'm never boring, never ever. This guy makes
39:24
Speaker 6: hundreds of millions of dollars hundreds of millions. Am I jealous? Yes,
39:29
Speaker 6: I'm jealous because he's not better. I never care when
39:32
Speaker 6: somebody's better than me, at least in the past, and
39:35
Speaker 6: they made more money, that's fine, you deserve it if
39:38
Speaker 6: you're better. But there's a lot of people in this
39:40
Speaker 6: business who make a lot more money than me and
39:42
Speaker 6: they're not better. And yes, lou that light's a flame
39:46
Speaker 6: under my ass pisses me off. So stop reminding me
39:49
Speaker 6: of that, will you. Jesus, it's Friday. What else is
39:55
Speaker 6: out there? No, No, I'm in a bad mood. Slept
40:00
Speaker 6: it all either out at the Trump National in uh
40:03
Speaker 6: coach Neck last night from my friend Dallex said, Dan,
40:06
Speaker 6: we'll get to that. Bobby Kennedy got grilled yesterday, and dlexa,
40:10
Speaker 6: Dan is a lot like Bobby Kennedy, will get to that.
40:12
Speaker 6: What else is happening though.
40:13
Speaker 25: And this is not by far the biggest story of
40:15
Speaker 25: the day, but it's one that everybody's talking about. So
40:18
Speaker 25: This couple's walking their dog in Laurelton Queen's yesterday and
40:22
Speaker 25: they go past this house that has one of those
40:24
Speaker 25: signs that says, don't let your dog relieve itself here.
40:27
Speaker 3: You know you've seen those signs, and they.
40:29
Speaker 6: Do not pep dooty either. One peep just kills the grass.
40:33
Speaker 3: But you see it.
40:34
Speaker 25: But when you see those signs, you know, I know
40:35
Speaker 25: I have a dog. I pull my dog away. Well,
40:37
Speaker 25: this couple lets the dog do its business on this
40:40
Speaker 25: front lawn. This is yesterday, and the people inside see
40:43
Speaker 25: that happen, and they see where this couple is going
40:45
Speaker 25: after that happens. So they come rushing out of their
40:48
Speaker 25: house yesterday and they go and pee on the dog
40:51
Speaker 25: owner's lawn.
40:53
Speaker 3: Is that right? Yeah?
40:54
Speaker 6: Oh, these people are fantastic. Well that starts, and Trump's
40:57
Speaker 6: got to give them the Medal of Freedom or something.
40:59
Speaker 25: Well then it just escalated from there. Fight ensues, a
41:03
Speaker 25: knife is pulled out. Three of these people are stats.
41:06
Speaker 6: Oh that's not good.
41:06
Speaker 3: Okay, they end up in the hospital. They're going to
41:08
Speaker 3: be all be okay, that's.
41:09
Speaker 6: Fine, It's okay, not fu until somebody gets stambed.
41:12
Speaker 25: But it is one of the number one complaints in
41:14
Speaker 25: the city, of course, is people don't clean up after
41:17
Speaker 25: the dogs.
41:17
Speaker 3: And here's an example of that. Yeah, yeah, where was
41:20
Speaker 3: this exactly? A Laurelton Queen.
41:23
Speaker 6: Oh that's by that's not far from oh the golf courses.
41:29
Speaker 6: What the hell is that? It's a big area there,
41:31
Speaker 6: Queen's Long Island border may on Long Island, Douglaston. Yeah,
41:35
Speaker 6: it's not close to Douglaston. I forget where Laurel do
41:39
Speaker 6: you know him?
41:39
Speaker 3: I think that is right next door.
41:41
Speaker 6: There's no idea cities all about community having them exactly.
41:46
Speaker 6: You know, we came home from a wedding Sunday morning,
41:50
Speaker 6: Danielle and I. We stayed in West Orange nice hotel,
41:55
Speaker 6: and we came back and they had us going back.
41:57
Speaker 6: Sunday was the Jersey City Marathon.
42:00
Speaker 3: Did you know that?
42:00
Speaker 14: No?
42:01
Speaker 6: I did?
42:01
Speaker 10: Oh?
42:01
Speaker 6: You did?
42:02
Speaker 3: Uh?
42:02
Speaker 6: You live right there, So they had us go home
42:05
Speaker 6: for some reason through the Holland Tunnel right before the
42:08
Speaker 6: Jersey City Marathon. It took Robert to get home on
42:11
Speaker 6: Sunday morning. So is that a big deal, the Jersey
42:14
Speaker 6: City Marathon.
42:15
Speaker 3: I guess it is. They ran by my house.
42:16
Speaker 6: So did you like go out and give them water,
42:18
Speaker 6: cheer them on, or I didn't try to trip anybody nothing.
42:21
Speaker 19: I saw.
42:23

Speaker 6: it's gonna be huge.
45:50
Speaker 3: Here in July.
45:51
Speaker 6: Of course, it all starts really June fourteenth, which happens
45:55
Speaker 6: to be Flag Day and the President's birthday. With that
45:58
Speaker 6: big UFC match on the law at the White House.
46:01
Speaker 6: We're all excited about that. And by the way, talking
46:03
Speaker 6: about the President, I know that you're going to be
46:05
Speaker 6: heading out to the White House Correspondent's dinner tomorrow night.
46:08
Speaker 6: So I was up when Bill O'Reilly he was talking
46:10
Speaker 6: about it yesterday. First one for Trump. Yeah, he'll be
46:13
Speaker 6: the first one for Trump. He's never done this, he
46:16
Speaker 6: set out the last five. He seems excited about it
46:20
Speaker 6: or not really. How does he see about this big dinner?
46:23
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I think the whole staff is there,
46:25
Speaker 2: the little fandaut I was talking all this four team,
46:28
Speaker 2: the communications team. They've been invited by different networks to
46:31
Speaker 2: go and.
46:32
Speaker 11: They have me.
46:32
Speaker 2: You know, listen, this is his fifth op opportunity, the
46:35
Speaker 2: first one he's taking. So I just think that he said,
46:38
Speaker 2: I'm going to make the Moses. I'm going to dominate
46:40
Speaker 2: this now. I mean he went from the press just
46:42
Speaker 2: killing him. Every day, they're killing him, but he's I
46:44
Speaker 2: think she, you know, showed his power. He reorganized the
46:47
Speaker 2: whole press room. You know, he talks to them three
46:49
Speaker 2: or four times a day. He calls him out to
46:52
Speaker 2: their face, but there's no grudges kept. So I think
46:55
Speaker 2: that at this point they all understand each other. And
46:58
Speaker 2: I think they're so smart not to get a comedian,
47:02
Speaker 2: remember the one who mocked Huckaby's weight. They just mercilessly
47:07
Speaker 2: go after Republicans instead of being, you know, making fun
47:10
Speaker 2: of the press, which you should be doing. So now
47:13
Speaker 2: you just have this O's I don't know if you
47:15
Speaker 2: know about him, but this is going to be phenomenal.
47:17
Speaker 2: I think they're still debating whether the president should take
47:20
Speaker 2: part in some of his antics. But you know, there's
47:24
Speaker 2: always a risk. You don't want to embarrass the president.
47:26
Speaker 2: But os does he do that? Have you've seen him
47:28
Speaker 2: on the NFL training camps? What he does? He's always
47:31
Speaker 2: featured in hard knocks. So I think that I think
47:34
Speaker 2: that's good idea. Do some entertainment that doesn't polarize.
47:38
Speaker 3: Couldn't agree more.
47:39
Speaker 6: I think it was Seth Meyers who was hosting that
47:41
Speaker 6: dinner when Trump first won, and President Trump was like,
47:45
Speaker 6: back in twenty seventeen, No thanks, I want to get
47:48
Speaker 6: to mom, Dottie. It's I mentioned this a little while
47:51
Speaker 6: ago when I started the show. I did get a
47:54
Speaker 6: phone call yesterday from the owner of the New York Mets,
47:58
Speaker 6: and we had a great conversation on gonna share all
48:01
Speaker 6: the details. But Steve Cohen and I talked for about
48:03
Speaker 6: fifteen minutes. In fact, I'll be going to the met
48:06
Speaker 6: Yankee game on May fifteenth with Bill O'Reilly and Cohen
48:10
Speaker 6: invited me to sit in the suite with him. He
48:12
Speaker 6: wants to establish, in his words, a great relationship with me.
48:15
Speaker 6: He wants to talk to me. He's interested. He does
48:17
Speaker 6: believe I speak on behalf of a lot of New Yorkers.
48:21
Speaker 6: So that was great with Steve Cohen, but he did
48:23
Speaker 6: say that, hey, the fact is the mayor in this
48:26
Speaker 6: city happens to be a very big met ban which
48:29
Speaker 6: is true. He is can't stand Mam Donnie, but he
48:32
Speaker 6: is a met band. But with that said, what a
48:35
Speaker 6: day for Mam Donnie yesterday. It does look like some
48:38
Speaker 6: of the people on his side are starting to turn
48:41
Speaker 6: against him. And the story you sent me last night
48:44
Speaker 6: about Ken Griffin, this is exactly why above and beyond
48:47
Speaker 6: the Jewish stop and all that the cop stuff, this
48:50
Speaker 6: is exactly why people are leaving New York and smart
48:54
Speaker 6: people can't stand this guy when he starts to make
48:57
Speaker 6: people like Ken Griffin and their second homes all of
49:00
Speaker 6: a sudden something criminal.
49:01
Speaker 3: Brian gilmead here on the State of New York.
49:04
Speaker 2: Yes, so I just love this article, this story, because
49:07
Speaker 2: it's everything that's wrong with the squad, the socialists, the
49:10
Speaker 2: Bernie Sanders, all these billionaires got to pay their fair share.
49:13
Speaker 2: The top twenty five percent play eighty four percent of
49:16
Speaker 2: all the taxes. Oh that's not enough. So Ken Griffin says,
49:19
Speaker 2: I cannot believe you featured me on your stupid video.
49:22
Speaker 2: And he says, listen, I have two hundred and thirty
49:24
Speaker 2: eight million dollar penhouse. I bought it in New York.
49:28
Speaker 2: I pay huge taxes on it, and I'm considering he's
49:31
Speaker 2: considering a Manhattan tower project. He asked me to be
49:35
Speaker 2: six billion dollars. So it's going to bring thousands of
49:38
Speaker 2: job jobs to the city. And of course those people
49:40
Speaker 2: need housing, don't they And those these people go out
49:43
Speaker 2: to dinner. So this is the e the thing that
49:46
Speaker 2: Florida gets in Texas gets. I want. I'll give Ken
49:49
Speaker 2: Griffin an incentive to come to my city because he
49:52
Speaker 2: will use his money to grow the city. And my goodness,
49:55
Speaker 2: if you make a profit when you come, that's great.
49:58
Speaker 2: And he's saying I might not my six billion dollar
50:01
Speaker 2: projects in New York City. You just mocked me. And
50:04
Speaker 2: what is wrong with getting a huge penhouse and not
50:06
Speaker 2: using it every day? I mean, since when is that criminal?
50:10
Speaker 2: So I just thought when he came out and said
50:12
Speaker 2: a lot of rich people are embarrassed. They're afraid for
50:15
Speaker 2: people to say, you know, I'm a billionaire. You know,
50:17
Speaker 2: except for the Trump attitude, Well listen, I worked hard.
50:20
Speaker 2: This is me. Most don't want their wealth being brought up.
50:23
Speaker 2: So when you sit in front of his apartment and
50:25
Speaker 2: mock him, he's going to turn around and go, look,
50:28
Speaker 2: this is what what this is. I would be in
50:31
Speaker 2: your city if it was more affordable. Now you're mocking me,
50:34
Speaker 2: I might not bring six billion dollars. And this is
50:37
Speaker 2: the same guy with a five point four billion dollar
50:39
Speaker 2: deficit and it blown a hole in his budget. So
50:43
Speaker 2: at one point did the doors closed it? And as
50:45
Speaker 2: he say, what did I do? I have to turn
50:48
Speaker 2: this narrative around or I am going to fail. Do
50:51
Speaker 2: you think he says that?
50:52
Speaker 3: I don't. I think he'd rather blow up and fail.
50:55
Speaker 6: He was just on with kristin Welcome Meet the Press
50:57
Speaker 6: courtesy of NBC on Sunday. He was saying, you know what,
51:00
Speaker 6: socialism I believe now more than ever is the right
51:03
Speaker 6: way to go, and my policies I believe now more
51:06
Speaker 6: than ever is the right.
51:07
Speaker 3: Way to go.
51:08
Speaker 6: So I think he'd rather see the city burn and
51:11
Speaker 6: go down in flames and fail then actually do something
51:16
Speaker 6: about it. Because don't forget, even if he fails, odds
51:19
Speaker 6: are unless I run.
51:21
Speaker 3: Odds are all seriousness.
51:23
Speaker 6: He's gonna win again anyway, because New York votes for
51:26
Speaker 6: people for some reason who want to destroy this city.
51:29
Speaker 3: It is Friday.
51:30

Speaker 6: My relationships with the sergeants with Vincent Ballalan obviously the
58:05
Speaker 6: you know all the attention we paid to this Eric
58:08
Speaker 6: the ran case in New York City, so you know,
58:10
Speaker 6: listening to me long enough that the cops I love,
58:13
Speaker 6: the cops love him. Part of the reason why I
58:16
Speaker 6: hate this mayor is because he doesn't like the police.
58:19
Speaker 6: But Randy Sutton is a great cop, has been a
58:22
Speaker 6: great cop attired now, Lieutenant. And are you still living
58:25
Speaker 6: Randy in Las Vegas? I am you are, but you're
58:27
Speaker 6: from New Jersey originally.
58:28
Speaker 13: I was a cop of New Jersey for ten years
58:30
Speaker 13: before I went to Vegas and did twenty four years there.
58:33
Speaker 3: Wow.
58:33
Speaker 6: So where in Jersey were you? Princeton?
58:35
Speaker 3: Ah?
58:36
Speaker 6: I was a Princeton Yeah. Now Princeton University you were, no. No, no, no,
58:41
Speaker 6: the real town of Princeton that was my hometown.
58:43
Speaker 13: Now he was a cop there for ten years, a
58:45
Speaker 13: patrolman for six, and a detective for four, and then
58:49
Speaker 13: started my career all over again in Vegas, where I
58:51
Speaker 13: was no longer bored as a police officer.
58:53
Speaker 6: I'm sure not, because I have to imagine the mean
58:56
Speaker 6: streets of Princeton, New Jersey, not exactly Nork, but in Vegas,
59:01
Speaker 6: even though it's a lovely area, and those residential areas
59:04
Speaker 6: in and around the Strip where you probably lived or live,
59:07
Speaker 6: I should say, or very very nice. I've worked with
59:10
Speaker 6: many people over the years in both New York and
59:12
Speaker 6: Florida who now live in Vegas, and they love it.
59:15
Speaker 6: They love it, but there's a lot of tawdry stuff
59:18
Speaker 6: going on in and around that city, which you've seen firsthand.
59:21
Speaker 6: Weren't you injured at one point?
59:23
Speaker 13: I am a survivor of five shootings, five and right,
59:30
Speaker 13: So you know what. I left Princeton because I was
59:33
Speaker 13: bored as a cop, right, and I was still on
59:35
Speaker 13: probation in Vegas when I was in my first shooting
59:38
Speaker 13: when a fifteen year.
59:39
Speaker 6: Old tried to ambush me. Why would you want probation?
59:42
Speaker 13: I was on probation as a brand first start, right, yeah, right, No,
59:46
Speaker 13: I wasn't not right.
59:47
Speaker 3: What did you do?
59:48
Speaker 6: So a fifteen year old kid in Vegas tried to
59:50
Speaker 6: kill you? Yes, how did you respond to that?
59:54
Speaker 13: I so, I was in a foot pursuit with him,
59:56
Speaker 13: was in a stolen car as a gang banger. And
59:59
Speaker 13: as I came around the corner of the building that
1:00:02
Speaker 13: I was chasing him, he was laying in wait for me.
1:00:05
Speaker 13: And as I came round, he was pointing his gun
1:00:07
Speaker 13: at me, and he was right next to a building.
1:00:10
Speaker 13: I fired and my bullet zinged right by his ear
1:00:13
Speaker 13: and hit the building behind him in a piece of
1:00:15
Speaker 13: stucco hit him in the head and he thought he
1:00:17
Speaker 13: was shot and he couldn't throw that gun down fast
1:00:20
Speaker 13: at us. Wow, And that's when I realized that you're
1:00:22
Speaker 13: not in Kansas anymore, Todo.
1:00:25
Speaker 3: But in one of.
1:00:25
Speaker 6: These five shootings, if I remember correctly, it's been a
1:00:28
Speaker 6: couple of years since you've been here, you know, sustained
1:00:31
Speaker 6: some some pretty serious injuries. So no, is that?
1:00:33
Speaker 3: Is that?
1:00:33
Speaker 14: Not?
1:00:33
Speaker 2: No?
1:00:33
Speaker 13: But what ended my police career was I suffered a
1:00:38
Speaker 13: stroke in my police car on Las Vegas Boulevard and
1:00:43
Speaker 13: that was the scariest moment of my life. I literally
1:00:46
Speaker 13: was laying on the pavement, unable to move, unable to talk,
1:00:49
Speaker 13: as tourists are walking by me taking pictures of me
1:00:53
Speaker 13: laying there helpless in my uniform.
1:00:55
Speaker 3: What happened? Did you find out what happened medically?
1:00:58
Speaker 6: Yeah?
1:00:58
Speaker 18: Yeah.
1:00:58
Speaker 13: So, like I said, I did twenty four years with
1:01:01
Speaker 13: the Las Vegas Metro. I loved it. I loved being
1:01:03
Speaker 13: a cop, you know, at my old entire adult life
1:01:06
Speaker 13: and being a Vegas cop.
1:01:07
Speaker 6: Man.
1:01:07
Speaker 13: It was fun, I got to tell you. But it
1:01:09
Speaker 13: had its challenges. And three weeks before the stroke, my
1:01:13
Speaker 13: mother died in my arms, I'm sorry. Two months before
1:01:15
Speaker 13: that I was in another fatal shooting. So there was
1:01:19
Speaker 13: a lot going on. But I was literally driving down
1:01:22
Speaker 13: Las Vegas Boulevard. I had a young patrol officer with me,
1:01:25
Speaker 13: and I'm talking to him like I'm talking to you,
1:01:27
Speaker 13: and suddenly I felt my brain slowing down. I felt it,
1:01:30
Speaker 13: and I started talking slower, and I realized I was
1:01:33
Speaker 13: having a stroke. So I ran out of the car.
1:01:35
Speaker 13: I said, you know, get me medical. I'm having a stroke.
1:01:37
Speaker 13: And I got out of the car and then collapsed
1:01:40
Speaker 13: to the pavement, speaking gibberish and then unable to speak
1:01:42
Speaker 13: and move all together. And I got to tell you,
1:01:44
Speaker 13: I've been in some frightening stuff, as you might well imagine,
1:01:47
Speaker 13: but I was never more scared than that. I wasn't
1:01:49
Speaker 13: afraid of dying, said, I was afraid of living like that.
1:01:52
Speaker 13: Oh but once again, that that angel that's been on
1:01:55
Speaker 13: my shoulder my entire career was with me again. The
1:01:58
Speaker 13: clot went through my brain did its damn, And I
1:02:00
Speaker 13: thought I was going to go back to work. And
1:02:02
Speaker 13: then I'm in the hospital for a week. The doctor
1:02:06
Speaker 13: comes in and I'm feeling pretty good. He says, how
1:02:08
Speaker 13: you feeling, Randy, I said, I feel pretty good man,
1:02:10
Speaker 13: ready to go back to work, and he said, I
1:02:12
Speaker 13: have to tell you this. Nothing that we did here
1:02:15
Speaker 13: is going to preclude you from walking out of here
1:02:17
Speaker 13: and having a heart attack or a stroke, because you
1:02:19
Speaker 13: have a very serious heart condition and you need to
1:02:21
Speaker 13: prepare for your own mortality. And I didn't expect that, said,
1:02:25
Speaker 13: and I realized that I was never going to be
1:02:27
Speaker 13: a cop again.
1:02:28
Speaker 3: How many geys? How long ago was this? I'm sorry?
1:02:30
Speaker 6: This is I did thirty four years total. Now when
1:02:33
Speaker 6: did the cop tell you this? How many years ago?
1:02:35
Speaker 6: I'm sorry? I said again? When did you find out
1:02:37
Speaker 6: this information from the doctor?
1:02:38
Speaker 18: Oh?
1:02:39
Speaker 6: About a week after the How long ago was it?
1:02:41
Speaker 6: Twenty ten? So okay, so he said, you've got a
1:02:44
Speaker 6: SIMI thought condition last night, checked it by mampis pretty good.
1:02:48
Speaker 6: That's sixteen years ago.
1:02:49
Speaker 13: Yeah, I did well, I had. I had quadruple bypass
1:02:52
Speaker 13: surgery a couple of years.
1:02:53
Speaker 6: Oh you did.
1:02:54
Speaker 13: So it's been but you know what, I was given
1:02:56
Speaker 13: a great gift, said, but what happened after my stroke
1:02:59
Speaker 13: is changed the trajectory of my life. That my own
1:03:02
Speaker 13: department turned its back on me and said we're not
1:03:04
Speaker 13: paying your medical bills or not giving you your benefits,
1:03:07
Speaker 13: and I said, wait a minute, you can't do that.
1:03:09
Speaker 13: There's there's a law about that. And they actually fought
1:03:13
Speaker 13: me every step of the way. And I got to
1:03:16
Speaker 13: tell you, man, feeling that betrayal really changed the changed
1:03:21
Speaker 13: my life entirely. And I went to go see the sheriff,
1:03:23
Speaker 13: who I worked for for twenty four years. I said,
1:03:25
Speaker 13: how do you treat me like this? He said, Randy,
1:03:27
Speaker 13: it's not personal, it's just business.
1:03:29
Speaker 6: Sounds personal to me, but you don't hate the cops. Yeah,
1:03:33
Speaker 6: it was. It was shocking to me, and they fought
1:03:35
Speaker 6: me every way.
1:03:36
Speaker 13: They spent tens of thousands of dollars a taxpayers money
1:03:38
Speaker 13: to fight me.
1:03:39
Speaker 6: I eventually won.
1:03:40
Speaker 13: They had to give me my benefits, but they ruined
1:03:42
Speaker 13: my credit and you know the darkness of being betrayed
1:03:45
Speaker 13: like that. So then I don't know if you probably
1:03:48
Speaker 13: might be aware of this, but I was the most
1:03:49
Speaker 13: featured officer on the TV show Cops. I've written a
1:03:52
Speaker 13: number of books and been in the movies like Casino
1:03:55
Speaker 13: and such.
1:03:55
Speaker 6: So cops started reaching out to me from around the country. Randy,
1:03:59
Speaker 6: I know you don't know me, but I was shot
1:04:01
Speaker 6: in the line of duty my chief is abandoned me. Randy,
1:04:04
Speaker 6: I was paralyzed when my police car was hit. They've
1:04:07
Speaker 6: thrown me away, and I realized that this is not me.
1:04:10
Speaker 6: This is happening to cops all over the United States.
1:04:14
Speaker 13: And I realized that all he asked they said, I
1:04:17
Speaker 13: feel forgotten, I feel alone.
1:04:18
Speaker 6: I just handed you a challenge coin.
1:04:20
Speaker 3: Thank you on that.
1:04:21
Speaker 13: It says, never forgotten, never alone, And that is what
1:04:25
Speaker 13: the Wounded Blue is. My entire team are heroes. Everybody
1:04:28
Speaker 13: on my team has been shot, stead beaten, run over,
1:04:31
Speaker 13: screwed up, and screwed over, and yet they continue to serve.
1:04:35
Speaker 13: They serve their brothers and sisters in amazing ways. We're
1:04:38
Speaker 13: saving lives, we're saving careers, we're saving marriages, and the
1:04:42
Speaker 13: Wounded Blue is touching lives in ways that you can't
1:04:44
Speaker 13: even imagine. I'll tell you one quick story because it's
1:04:47
Speaker 13: a happy ending. I'm not telling any non happy endings
1:04:49
Speaker 13: right now. Police officer in Texas severely injured in the
1:04:53
Speaker 13: line of duty during a fight with a suspect, and
1:04:58
Speaker 13: he was abandoned by his department, lost the ability to walk.
1:05:02
Speaker 13: When we met him. Through an incredible donor, we got
1:05:06
Speaker 13: him three major surgeries. He danced with his daughter at
1:05:09
Speaker 13: her wedding.
1:05:10
Speaker 6: That is beautiful. Yeah, oh, we're doing amazing works. So
1:05:13
Speaker 6: you have chapters in despite of country, all over the country,
1:05:16
Speaker 6: all over the country. I have people here in New York. Uh.
1:05:20
Speaker 13: In fact, one of my one of my people has
1:05:23
Speaker 13: been featured on the news. He was recently really screwed
1:05:26
Speaker 13: over by a court. He was a lieutenant at Richie
1:05:30
Speaker 13: Mack And he was the officer who was attacked on
1:05:33
Speaker 13: the bridge during the George Floyd in remember, of course.
1:05:36
Speaker 13: And and they they gave the guy a misdemeanor. They
1:05:40
Speaker 13: gave the suspect the misdemeanor, and talk about and injustice.
1:05:44
Speaker 6: Oh listen, you wouldn't believe what happens in this city.
1:05:46
Speaker 6: We have a story just a couple of weeks old.
1:05:47
Speaker 6: I mentioned his name, Eric Duran. This is a cop
1:05:51
Speaker 6: very familiar with it. You know the whole story, sure do?
1:05:53
Speaker 2: Yeah.
1:05:53
Speaker 6: I mean the guy was stopping a drug dealer traveling
1:05:56
Speaker 6: at high speeds, putting literally three people's lives in danger.
1:06:00
Speaker 6: And the prick judge Guy Mitchell in New York gave
1:06:03
Speaker 6: this hero cop three to nine years.
1:06:05
Speaker 13: It's unbelievable. It's but this is this is happening across
1:06:08
Speaker 13: the United States. I mean, my last book, which came
1:06:11
Speaker 13: out six months ago, rescuing nine to one to one,
1:06:13
Speaker 13: the Fight for America's Safety, and I talked about how
1:06:16
Speaker 13: we got here and what we need to do.
1:06:19
Speaker 6: We all need to.
1:06:20
Speaker 13: Become activists, said, and even if that means just going
1:06:22
Speaker 13: to the polls and putting people in positions of authority
1:06:26
Speaker 13: that need to be there, not idiots like Mondamie, who
1:06:29
Speaker 13: is about as anti law enforcement as they get.
1:06:31
Speaker 6: I can't. I can't stand to see what he's doing
1:06:34
Speaker 6: to this city. Terrible, terrible. You love this city and
1:06:36
Speaker 6: again you weird. You major bones in Princeton, New Jersey.
1:06:40
Speaker 6: Your year often. I mean, you be on this show
1:06:41
Speaker 6: now four or five times. You'll be in this city
1:06:43
Speaker 6: all weekend long. So explain to me this beautiful race call.
1:06:47
Speaker 6: It's a replica, it's not it's not gonna race at Talladego.
1:06:50
Speaker 6: But explain to me why it's out there. It looks great.
1:06:53
Speaker 6: What's going on with all that?
1:06:54
Speaker 13: So Insurance king Is is owned by Dan Block. Dan
1:06:59
Speaker 13: Fi was a disabled police officer, and so Dan saw
1:07:03
Speaker 13: me on Fox News reached out to me. This is
1:07:05
Speaker 13: a number of years ago, been a huge supporter of
1:07:08
Speaker 13: the Wounded Blue ever since. Well, Josh Blicky is the driver,
1:07:12
Speaker 13: and Josh is an amazing driver. Well, Dan Block, who
1:07:16
Speaker 13: owns Insurance King, he's the sponsor of this race car
1:07:19
Speaker 13: that's going to be racing in Calladega this weekend.
1:07:22
Speaker 6: So it is racing, but not that specifics specific car.
1:07:25
Speaker 6: It's sister car.
1:07:26
Speaker 13: So what they did is they are adorning their car
1:07:29
Speaker 13: with the Wounded Blue colors to bring attention to the
1:07:32
Speaker 13: Wounded Blue and injured officers. And so we have the
1:07:36
Speaker 13: car here. They've put the Wounded Blue logos all over it.
1:07:40
Speaker 13: It is amazing, and so we're celebrating the fact that
1:07:43
Speaker 13: that they're supporting us and everybody who NASCAR, of course fans,
1:07:47
Speaker 13: they love the cops.
1:07:48
Speaker 6: On NASCAR is real Americans, real Americas. They love the cops,
1:07:51
Speaker 6: they love the country, they love Trump, they love all
1:07:54
Speaker 6: the values that we hold near and dear to us,
1:07:57
Speaker 6: not the psychle lunatic democrats who want to destroy all
1:08:01
Speaker 6: of us. So in that respect, I've never been a
1:08:03
Speaker 6: huge NASCAR guy. Covered for many years on CBS, and
1:08:06
Speaker 6: I got to know a lot of the drivers. When
1:08:08
Speaker 6: Jeff Gordon was winning those Winston Cup series every year.
1:08:12
Speaker 6: Interviewed him many times. He used to like this guy
1:08:14
Speaker 6: named Dick Trickle. That was his real name, you know.
1:08:16
Speaker 6: But after a while, I can only watch the car
1:08:18
Speaker 6: go on the track so many times, and I'm not
1:08:20
Speaker 6: at any here minimizing the athletic ability of these guys.
1:08:23
Speaker 6: It's amazing. But in terms of just being good people,
1:08:27
Speaker 6: I think of all the sports in the world today,
1:08:29
Speaker 6: NASCAR is number one. I have to agree with you.
1:08:31
Speaker 13: I mean, this is not the first time they've adorned
1:08:34
Speaker 13: their car, but this is the biggest race yet. Mal
1:08:38
Speaker 13: Dega is talent baby, yes, And so millions of people
1:08:42
Speaker 13: are going to see the Wounded Blue. And of course
1:08:44
Speaker 13: raising money is so important. You know, everything that we
1:08:47
Speaker 13: do is everybody's a volunteer except for one person.
1:08:51
Speaker 6: And I don't take a salary.
1:08:53
Speaker 13: I live on my pension, and everything that we do
1:08:56
Speaker 13: is funded by people who care about their police. So
1:08:58
Speaker 13: what we're doing is asking this good Wounded Blue dot org,
1:09:01
Speaker 13: see who we are, see what we do. We're asking
1:09:03
Speaker 13: for people to donate nine dollars and eleven cents a month,
1:09:06
Speaker 13: and what we say is this, when you need help,
1:09:09
Speaker 13: you call nine one one, But when the police need help,
1:09:12
Speaker 13: they call the wounded Blue.
1:09:13
Speaker 6: That's awesome. God, bless you. I made that up, but
1:09:15
Speaker 6: I love that.
1:09:16
Speaker 3: I can't he chills just now.
1:09:17
Speaker 6: God, I got chills. You may want to ask the
1:09:20
Speaker 6: newest Las Vegas resident. He was picked number one overall
1:09:24
Speaker 6: last night by your football team, the Raiders, for Nando Mendozo,
1:09:28
Speaker 6: who won the Heisman Trophy and the national championship. But
1:09:30
Speaker 6: Indiana hit him up for donation one of these days
1:09:33
Speaker 6: because he's about to make a lot of money. You
1:09:37
Speaker 6: got his number. I'll give him a call right now.
1:09:39
Speaker 6: I'll got it.
1:09:40
Speaker 3: Randy.
1:09:40
Speaker 6: It's great to see you. You're a true hero, and
1:09:42
Speaker 6: you're great at this. You're great on television, great on

Speaker 6: number two right if.
1:10:26
Speaker 1: The nome with the news Sid and Friends in the
1:10:30
Speaker 1: morning on the Red Apple podcast network.
1:10:34
Speaker 6: Larry Trump is one of my own time favorite people.
1:10:36
Speaker 6: She's on this show every week and again. She's got
1:10:39
Speaker 6: my view nine pm Saturday nights. It's a great show
1:10:42
Speaker 6: on Fox News and a podcast as well. I've had
1:10:44
Speaker 6: the conversation with you, Larra a couple of times.
1:10:46
Speaker 18: Now.
1:10:47
Speaker 6: Now I know what sounds wacky. They said it was
1:10:49
Speaker 6: wacky when a TV show host of a reality show
1:10:54
Speaker 6: was running for president. They said it was wacky when
1:10:57
Speaker 6: a superaction hero was running for government state of California,
1:11:01
Speaker 6: or an actor which running for governor in the state
1:11:03
Speaker 6: of California, or a rapper was running for mayor in
1:11:06
Speaker 6: New York. That's why I keep saying to you I
1:11:08
Speaker 6: got to run from mayor in twenty twenty nine because
1:11:11
Speaker 6: this guy is going to kill.
1:11:13
Speaker 29: All of us, Sid, Would you please do it? Can
1:11:15
Speaker 29: we confirm that right here? Because as you heard that
1:11:18
Speaker 29: kind of lead into that whole SoundBite you played there,
1:11:21
Speaker 29: we all want New York City to return. This is
1:11:23
Speaker 29: the greatest city on earth. I mean this. I mean
1:11:26
Speaker 29: figure out how many people have been made by New York.
1:11:29
Speaker 29: You could argue Donald Trump would not be in the
1:11:31
Speaker 29: White House right now had it not been for the
1:11:33
Speaker 29: city of New York. He changed the skyline, but it
1:11:36
Speaker 29: changed him and it made him into the person he
1:11:38
Speaker 29: is today, the greatest president this country has ever seen.
1:11:41
Speaker 29: We have to have that city come back, and we
1:11:43
Speaker 29: need somebody who understands how to do it. We need
1:11:45
Speaker 29: a fighter. Somebody's not going to lay down and roll over.
1:11:48
Speaker 29: For all the woke lunatics out there, and god knows, Sid,
1:11:51
Speaker 29: we know you wouldn't do it. If they tried, they
1:11:54
Speaker 29: could hold your feet to the fire, you wouldn't have it.
1:11:56
Speaker 29: So we need you.
1:11:57
Speaker 6: Let's go conty Cole, mister Jones, after he replayed the
1:12:03
Speaker 6: little piece larrat Trump and I yesterday, Lara wants me
1:12:06
Speaker 6: to run for mayor. Soota's Bruce Flateman and Little Birdie
1:12:10
Speaker 6: told me.
1:12:11
Speaker 3: Soda is President Trump.
1:12:12
Speaker 24: I don't know.
1:12:13
Speaker 6: We're gonna find out either way, you know, talking about
1:12:18
Speaker 6: President Trump. I was at one of his beautiful golf
1:12:20
Speaker 6: courses just last night, Trump National in Lovely Coltsneck, New Jersey.
1:12:27
Speaker 6: You guys have heard my friend Alex Zadan on this
1:12:30
Speaker 6: show in studio twice over the last couple of weeks.
1:12:33
Speaker 6: And he's running against Corey Booker. Corey Booker. That's no
1:12:38
Speaker 6: ooame's guy. He loves Corey Booker. Cy's a big deal
1:12:41
Speaker 6: in New Jersey, very very popular. Hasn't done a damn
1:12:45
Speaker 6: thing nothing, takes a lot of money from Wall Street.
1:12:48
Speaker 6: And remember that day when he spoke for like twenty
1:12:50
Speaker 6: seven consecutive hours. No, do you remember one thing he said?
1:12:53
Speaker 6: It for twenty seven hours.
1:12:54
Speaker 3: But it was incredible, it was unbelievable.
1:12:57
Speaker 6: Right now he's at jerkoff Corey and Alex a Dan
1:13:01
Speaker 6: stands for everything, right. He's a big Trump supporter, very
1:13:05
Speaker 6: pro Israel. I love that about Alex. And of course
1:13:08
Speaker 6: he is at the very head of the MAHA movement,
1:13:12
Speaker 6: which I've become very enthusiastic about the last couple of
1:13:17
Speaker 6: months on this show, you guys have heard a whole
1:13:19
Speaker 6: bunch of guests diving right in whether it's medical freedom,
1:13:24
Speaker 6: religious freedom, issues with the vaccines right now. Poor Bobby Kennedy,
1:13:29
Speaker 6: my guy, Bobby got grilled yesterday on the Hill about
1:13:33
Speaker 6: this measles outbreak. We're doing a good job here. He
1:13:36
Speaker 6: pointed out all the other countries in Europe and other
1:13:39
Speaker 6: places around the world where the percentages are way higher.
1:13:43
Speaker 6: Bobby's doing a great job with that movement. So we
1:13:46
Speaker 6: had this great event last night, and Jackie Tobacco happens
1:13:50
Speaker 6: to be the cousin of Johnny Tobacco. She did a
1:13:52
Speaker 6: tremendous job. And Victoria Capish, he's been on this show
1:13:55
Speaker 6: a bunch of times, she was here last night, did
1:13:58
Speaker 6: a terrific job. The whole committee, Cara all did terrific work,
1:14:03
Speaker 6: Eatie and it was a lovely event. I tell you
1:14:06
Speaker 6: who spoke well. I liked a lot. Besides Alex obviously
1:14:09
Speaker 6: is a senator from New Jersey. I'm not sure if
1:14:11
Speaker 6: you know him, know him? That's your state. Michael Testa,
1:14:14
Speaker 6: you know him, do not know Mike Testa. He was
1:14:16
Speaker 6: really impressive last night and Alexandre Bauer. She's been in
1:14:19
Speaker 6: studio Scott Lobatos, Buddy Blonde Girl on Box News quite
1:14:23
Speaker 6: a bit. So all in all, it was a hugely
1:14:25
Speaker 6: successful event last night, and Alexa Dan will hopefully have
1:14:30
Speaker 6: the opportunity to take on Corey Booker November. Of course,
1:14:32
Speaker 6: he's got to win the primary person. I believe there
1:14:35
Speaker 6: is about three men running for that Republican spot for
1:14:39
Speaker 6: that Senate seat, so we'll see come June. But to me,
1:14:42
Speaker 6: he is the most impressive. He's just a smart guy. Again,
1:14:45
Speaker 6: he's on all the right side of all the issues,
1:14:48
Speaker 6: and I love the guy. So thank you to alex
1:14:51
Speaker 6: A Dan and his crew last night again beautiful venue,
1:14:54
Speaker 6: Trump National and Coltneck. And we move forward. I'm trying
1:14:58
Speaker 6: to get as many Republicans to win. You know that,
1:15:00
Speaker 6: norm I show up at a lot of events. They're
1:15:03
Speaker 6: not the favorites these people. I understand that, and we
1:15:06
Speaker 6: talked about that last night. They're not the favorites. That
1:15:10
Speaker 6: doesn't mean I won't show up because I feel like
1:15:13
Speaker 6: it's my job at this point to help every Republican
1:15:16
Speaker 6: win in every spot that I can help. And being that,
1:15:19
Speaker 6: I'm immensely popular and very cute. I show up, you know,
1:15:25
Speaker 6: extra cute. I would say yeah, and the people going
1:15:27
Speaker 6: not say love it? You know, So I MC last night.
1:15:30
Speaker 6: I spoke last night and it was a lot of fun.
1:15:32
Speaker 6: I would take a break. We got a lot more
1:15:34
Speaker 6: guest stopping by this one I'm fascinated by. Her name
1:15:37
Speaker 6: is Blair White. She's a very famous transgender. She's on
1:15:41
Speaker 6: box News all the time. She is the conservative voice.
1:15:46
Speaker 6: But I guess much like Caitlin Jenner, she's cool. She
1:15:51
Speaker 6: understands the issues with the community, the problems with the community,
1:15:57
Speaker 6: and she's actually on our side. So she's here with
1:16:00
Speaker 6: my friend Adam Weiss, but also talked to Kat McFarland,
1:16:04
Speaker 6: Joseph Tacopinat, Scott Lobato, and Stephen A. Smith. How did
1:16:08
Speaker 6: the Giants do with their two picks in the first
1:16:11
Speaker 6: round last night? How did the Jets do with their
1:16:14
Speaker 6: three picks in the first round last night? And what
1:16:16
Speaker 6: did the Knicks have in stored? With the Game four
1:16:19
Speaker 6: in Atlanta coming up tomorrow? All that still a coup
1:16:22
Speaker 6: on the body edition of Sitting Friends If the Port by.
1:16:27
Speaker 26: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
1:16:31
Speaker 26: Podcast Network.
1:16:33
Speaker 3: How long are you willing to wait until you get a.
1:16:36
Speaker 5: Don't rush me, Jeff. You know guys like you want
1:16:40
Speaker 5: to say.
1:16:41
Speaker 24: So.
1:16:41
Speaker 5: We were in Vietnam like for eighteen years. We're in
1:16:43
Speaker 5: Iraq for many, many years. We're in for all the
1:16:47
Speaker 5: I don't like to say World War two because that
1:16:49
Speaker 5: was a biggie, but we were four and a half
1:16:51
Speaker 5: almost five years in World War Two. We were in
1:16:54
Speaker 5: the Korean War for seven years. I've been doing this
1:16:58
Speaker 5: for six weeks and their military is totally defeated. They're
1:17:05
Speaker 5: outside of the little wise sky ships. I call them
1:17:08
Speaker 5: the wise Skuy ships, the little boats that they have
1:17:11
Speaker 5: running around with guns in them. We'll take them out
1:17:15
Speaker 5: too when we see him. But their navy is gone,
1:17:18
Speaker 5: their air force is gone, their anti aircraft is gone.
1:17:22
Speaker 5: All of their anti aircraft machinery has gone. Maybe they
1:17:25
Speaker 5: loaded up a little bit during the two week hiatus,
1:17:28
Speaker 5: but we'll knock that out in about one day. If
1:17:30
Speaker 5: they did, we've done an amazing job. Their leaders are gone.
1:17:34
Speaker 3: Leaders are all gone.
1:17:37
Speaker 6: President Trump says, don't bust me, leave me alone, like
1:17:40
Speaker 6: we said. Vietnam eighteen years, World War two, five years,
1:17:44
Speaker 6: six years of the Korean War, Iraq, Afghanistan forever. I've
1:17:48
Speaker 6: been doing this for six weeks, six weeks. I got
1:17:51
Speaker 6: one more I want to play before I get to
1:17:53
Speaker 6: the great k t Mcfalland he also discussed yesterday the possibility,
1:17:59
Speaker 6: if not probability, of a nuclear holocaust with those no
1:18:04
Speaker 6: good bastards in Europe. They've all turned their backs on us,
1:18:08
Speaker 6: all of them. We'll get them in the end. This
1:18:10
Speaker 6: is President Trump talking about that possibility. Lewis cut number twelve.
1:18:16
Speaker 5: I think that there's nothing worse than a nuclear weapon
1:18:18
Speaker 5: that takes out one of your cities, or two of
1:18:20
Speaker 5: your cities, or three. I think there's nothing worse than
1:18:23
Speaker 5: a nuclear weapon that's going to destroy the Middle East,
1:18:25
Speaker 5: including Israel. I think there's nothing worse than Europe being
1:18:30
Speaker 5: under attacked by people that have missiles now that reach Europe.
1:18:34
Speaker 5: As you know, they don't reach Ust, but they reach Europe.
1:18:36
Speaker 5: But they will reach us it sometime probably they're not
1:18:39
Speaker 5: too distant future. Unless we stop them now. I think
1:18:42
Speaker 5: there would be nothing worse than having nuclear holocaust in Europe. London, Paris,
1:18:50
Speaker 5: various places in Germany all targeted. Now what I what
1:18:56
Speaker 5: I say is you can't let them have I don't
1:18:59
Speaker 5: think it will happen by the I really think we
1:19:01
Speaker 5: actually it turns out that we are drill, baby, drill,
1:19:05
Speaker 5: and it turns out we're producing got a lot of oil,
1:19:07
Speaker 5: and they're buying the oil. They're going to Alaska, they're
1:19:09
Speaker 5: going to Texas, Louisiana, and our guys have done a
1:19:13
Speaker 5: fantastic job. We're putting out right now more oil and
1:19:16
Speaker 5: gas than we ever have in the history of our country.
1:19:19
Speaker 5: And one other thing, there are more people employed today
1:19:22
Speaker 5: in the United States than ever in the history of
1:19:25
Speaker 5: our country.
1:19:26
Speaker 6: There he is President Trump yesterday, So we're going to
1:19:29
Speaker 6: talk to Blair White and Adam Weis's after Kat. And then,
1:19:33
Speaker 6: like I said, Joe Takapinus got Lobato, the brilliant sports
1:19:37
Speaker 6: voice of Stephen A. Smith. But I want to read
1:19:39
Speaker 6: this to kt.
1:19:40
Speaker 3: KT.
1:19:41
Speaker 6: Of course, that's worked for for presidents over her legendary career,
1:19:44
Speaker 6: most recently President Trump. She's on Fox News multiple times
1:19:48
Speaker 6: a week, and she is an amazing guest with us
1:19:51
Speaker 6: every Friday. So I don't name names often sometimes I do,
1:19:55
Speaker 6: but this time I'm not going to KT. But somebody
1:19:58
Speaker 6: who I respect a lot sent me this text from
1:20:02
Speaker 6: the Pentagon. This person was actually in the Pentagon when
1:20:06
Speaker 6: I received this text a couple of days ago. Now
1:20:08
Speaker 6: you know that I was behind this war one hundred
1:20:11
Speaker 6: percent and still am. Anybody who says this war is
1:20:15
Speaker 6: not a necessity doesn't know what they're talking about. Okay,
1:20:19
Speaker 6: it is unnecessity, and we didn't start it. For you
1:20:22
Speaker 6: folks that are complaining, I thought Trump was America first.
1:20:25
Speaker 6: He is. Iran started this war forty seven years ago,
1:20:29
Speaker 6: and six or seven presidents promised that we'd do something
1:20:32
Speaker 6: about it, and they didn't do anything. So President Trump decided,
1:20:35
Speaker 6: I'm going to be the guy to fix it. And
1:20:38
Speaker 6: it's not easy. It's a big country, ninety million people,
1:20:41
Speaker 6: and they hate us. So I'm all for it, okay,
1:20:44
Speaker 6: But I'm also saying, with every ceasefire, with every stoppage,
1:20:50
Speaker 6: Americans care less and less, and Americans are not believing
1:20:54
Speaker 6: that we are winning. That's just my opinion. So here's
1:20:58
Speaker 6: a text that I got Kato the war, Iran did
1:21:02
Speaker 6: not control the Strait of Hormuz. Now it does. Iran
1:21:06
Speaker 6: oil was sanctioned. Now it's not. Iran was not really
1:21:11
Speaker 6: building a nuclear weapon, according to the Pentagon Intelligence Agency.
1:21:16
Speaker 3: Now they will.
1:21:17
Speaker 6: The US bases and the Gulf were assets, now the liabilities.
1:21:22
Speaker 6: And everyone is laughing at us because the truth is
1:21:25
Speaker 6: the reason why the President of United States keeps stopping
1:21:28
Speaker 6: and going is because we are stuck. NBC has reported
1:21:34
Speaker 6: the last two days that Hextath is not being truthful either,
1:21:38
Speaker 6: and that Iran has a lot more weaponry than we
1:21:41
Speaker 6: are telling the fine folks in America your thoughts on
1:21:45
Speaker 6: some of these criticisms.
1:21:47
Speaker 10: So they're all wrong, they're all dead wrong. I mean,
1:21:52
Speaker 10: Iran wasn't getting close to having a nuclear weapon. Iran
1:21:56
Speaker 10: has had one goal for forty seven years to have
1:21:58
Speaker 10: a nuclear weapon. And if you look at what they're
1:22:01
Speaker 10: doing now and how they're holding the world hostage. When
1:22:05
Speaker 10: people say, well, they didn't control the straight of arm
1:22:07
Speaker 10: absolutely they could have turned nothing on and off anytime
1:22:10
Speaker 10: they wanted. When I was working for President of ring It,
1:22:12
Speaker 10: they tried to stop. They'd tried to close down the
1:22:14
Speaker 10: Strait of Hormouse. We shopped some ships out of the water,
1:22:18
Speaker 10: and then they went back to their caves. So all
1:22:21
Speaker 10: every one of those points is actually incorrect. And the
1:22:25
Speaker 10: thing that I guess is reinforced to me the necessity
1:22:28
Speaker 10: of doing what President Trump did at the eleventh hour,
1:22:31
Speaker 10: is that look at what Iran is willing to do
1:22:33
Speaker 10: now with the world, world trade countries are going to
1:22:38
Speaker 10: go into economic tailspims. Why because a bunch of a
1:22:43
Speaker 10: military dictatorship, which is what it is, a military dictatorship
1:22:46
Speaker 10: in Iran, wants to have nuclear weapons and they're willing
1:22:50
Speaker 10: to put the whole world in chaos, economic chaos in
1:22:54
Speaker 10: order to do that. And can you imagine what a
1:22:57
Speaker 10: country like that would do. A bang of dictators will
1:23:01
Speaker 10: do if they actually had nuclear weapons, they would use them,
1:23:05
Speaker 10: they would blackmail the world for whatever reason they wanted
1:23:09
Speaker 10: to blackmail the world, for whatever purpose came into their heads.
1:23:12
Speaker 10: So the necessity of doing this, and doing this now,
1:23:15
Speaker 10: and doing this very surgically, I think is pretty amazing.
1:23:20
Speaker 10: And when people say, well President Trump doesn't know what
1:23:22
Speaker 10: he's doing, come on, guys, I mean, you guys are
1:23:24
Speaker 10: so far behind you think you're ahead. He set out
1:23:28
Speaker 10: to do this on day one of his first term,
1:23:30
Speaker 10: when he realized that he needed peace between Israel and
1:23:33
Speaker 10: the Golf Arabs, he crafted the Abraham Accords. What that
1:23:37
Speaker 10: did was take Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and all
1:23:41
Speaker 10: those countries which either sat on the sidelines of any
1:23:43
Speaker 10: Israeli conflict in the region or cheered and worked against Israel.
1:23:48
Speaker 10: Now they're fighting with Israel against Iran. President Trump drill
1:23:53
Speaker 10: baby drills. He just mentioned in the clip that you
1:23:55
Speaker 10: paid played. That meant that world oil prices went down
1:23:59
Speaker 10: because America Oil came into the mix. What did that do?
1:24:02
Speaker 10: Bankrupted Iran? Iran's only source of income is oil exports.
1:24:07
Speaker 10: And then finally, what's happened in the last several weeks
1:24:11
Speaker 10: is degrading Iran's military, killing their first, second, and third
1:24:15
Speaker 10: tier of leaders, destroying their command and control, their army,
1:24:19
Speaker 10: their navy, their air force, the proxies. All of this
1:24:23
Speaker 10: put into place the final move in the chessboard. We
1:24:27
Speaker 10: knew that they were shut down the Strait, as I said,
1:24:29
Speaker 10: they've done it before, but we also knew we had
1:24:32
Speaker 10: one more move after they shut down the Strait, which
1:24:34
Speaker 10: is a blockade. We could never have done a blockade
1:24:37
Speaker 10: unless we already had all of those military assets in
1:24:40
Speaker 10: the region. And now we sit back and wait. I
1:24:42
Speaker 10: don't think we wait for long, but we wait for
1:24:45
Speaker 10: them to either come have some pramatic negotiations or we
1:24:50
Speaker 10: wait for their economy to completely collapse.
1:24:53
Speaker 6: I don't disagree with that you just said.
1:24:55
Speaker 3: I would just say that, you know my frustration.
1:24:58
Speaker 6: Seventeen days ago, seventeen days ago, President Trump was about
1:25:03
Speaker 6: to unleash hell on that civilization, and we've got like
1:25:08
Speaker 6: two seasfires since. And I think you may be mad
1:25:10
Speaker 6: at me. I don't know. These people tell me you're crazy,
1:25:13
Speaker 6: stop at Morgo Morton, but I have been pretty outspoken
1:25:16
Speaker 6: that I'm tired of the ceasefires. Do what you say
1:25:18
Speaker 6: you're gonna do. I'm sorry because I've got people who
1:25:22
Speaker 6: love him like I do, like you do, love him
1:25:24
Speaker 6: to death. We don't want anybody else in that seat.
1:25:27
Speaker 6: I'm not critical of the president where I'm saying he
1:25:29
Speaker 6: shouldn't be. I mean, he's the best. He's the best
1:25:31
Speaker 6: in my lifetime, and thank god he's there. I don't
1:25:33
Speaker 6: want him to ever leave. I'm going to cry the
1:25:35
Speaker 6: day he leaves. But I'm getting tired of the ceasefires.
1:25:40
Speaker 6: You know, you keep threatening people, and you keep threatening people,
1:25:43
Speaker 6: and you don't do it, and eventually the Iranians who
1:25:46
Speaker 6: don't care anyway, they're not intimidated by any of Trump's threats,
1:25:49
Speaker 6: they're gonna start laughing back. So that's my frustration here.
1:25:52
Speaker 6: Everything you said is fine, that's all great, but these
1:25:56
Speaker 6: constant not today, maybe tomorrow, maybe four days, maybe ten days,
1:26:01
Speaker 6: maybe two weeks. He doesn't want to be rushed, but
1:26:04
Speaker 6: he's promising the American people one thing on one day,
1:26:07
Speaker 6: and that it's another story on the next. That part
1:26:09
Speaker 6: you have to understand.
1:26:12
Speaker 10: Sure, there are two ways to kill a snake. You
1:26:14
Speaker 10: can cut off his head where you can starve him
1:26:16
Speaker 10: in the cage, and then Iran is now in a cage.
1:26:20
Speaker 10: The cage is the blockade. So here's let me just
1:26:23
Speaker 10: go through the economic steps as the Sexuary Treasury has
1:26:26
Speaker 10: talked about them. The economic steps that now are half
1:26:28
Speaker 10: have started to happen. So Iran is losing half billion
1:26:32
Speaker 10: dollars a day in revenue. They're not getting their oil
1:26:35
Speaker 10: revenue because the tankers aren't full of oil. The tankers
1:26:39
Speaker 10: are not getting past the blockade. They're not getting consumer
1:26:43
Speaker 10: goods into Iran because any ships on their way to
1:26:46
Speaker 10: Iran or are not getting through the blockade. So the
1:26:49
Speaker 10: blockade is preventing only ships going to and from Iran,
1:26:53
Speaker 10: not anybody else's ships. But just to and from Iran,
1:26:56
Speaker 10: and so Iran may have some revenues that they could,
1:27:01
Speaker 10: like a reserve that they could use. The problem is,
1:27:03
Speaker 10: thanks to Donald Trump, the problem for Iran is that
1:27:06
Speaker 10: all of those assets are frozen in foreign banks, so
1:27:08
Speaker 10: they cannot access them. So they're getting no revenue, they're
1:27:11
Speaker 10: getting no consumer goods. The inflation rate is by the
1:27:16
Speaker 10: day is clicking up, and within about you know, period
1:27:20
Speaker 10: of time, not too long a period of time, Iran
1:27:23
Speaker 10: is not going to have any income to pay the weapon,
1:27:25
Speaker 10: to pay their military, to do all the things that
1:27:27
Speaker 10: their government needs to do to function. Added on top
1:27:31
Speaker 10: of that is the way oil works oil because you
1:27:34
Speaker 10: know oil wells, they pump the stuff out of the ground,
1:27:37
Speaker 10: puts it in a pipeline, goes to Carbon Island, and
1:27:40
Speaker 10: then the pipeline puts the oil into empty tankers. The
1:27:44
Speaker 10: tankers fill up and go on their merry way, usually
1:27:46
Speaker 10: to China. They're not doing none of that's happening now
1:27:49
Speaker 10: because the tankers, empty tankers are not getting into Iran.
1:27:52
Speaker 10: Full tankers, they're not getting past the blockade. So what's
1:27:56
Speaker 10: happening is that the oil wells are backing up. You
1:27:59
Speaker 10: can just flip a switch and turn off the pipeline.
1:28:03
Speaker 10: You can't just flip a switch and turn off the
1:28:06
Speaker 10: well without doing enormous damage to the well, probably permanent
1:28:10
Speaker 10: damage to the well. So within a short period of time,
1:28:14
Speaker 10: starving the snake, Iran is going to have no income
1:28:17
Speaker 10: and no prospects because in a post war run, the
1:28:21
Speaker 10: way they would rebuild their country is the revenue they
1:28:24
Speaker 10: would get sanctions were lifted and they could produce oil again.
1:28:27
Speaker 18: They won't be.
1:28:28
Speaker 10: Able to produce oil if all those oil wells are flooded.
1:28:30
Speaker 10: I mean, think about a sink. You've got a clog
1:28:33
Speaker 10: drain and the faucet keeps going. You can't turn the
1:28:36
Speaker 10: faucet off, and what havoc does that wreak on your
1:28:39
Speaker 10: sink and on your kitchen. That's what could happen to
1:28:41
Speaker 10: a run. And that's what could happen to a run.
1:28:43
Speaker 10: Most experts believe that the storage capacity excess capacity to
1:28:48
Speaker 10: absorb all that ex or oil in the pipeline is
1:28:52
Speaker 10: one two weeks. Nobody thinks it's three months. The estimates
1:28:56
Speaker 10: are that it's a couple of weeks. So when President
1:28:58
Speaker 10: Trump is saying I've got all the time in the world.
1:29:01
Speaker 10: What he knows is that the clock is ticking for Iran.
1:29:05
Speaker 10: You know, President Trump has six months to three faces
1:29:07
Speaker 10: the voters. Iran probably doesn't have six weeks, probably doesn't
1:29:11
Speaker 10: even have six days that they can survive without income.
1:29:14
Speaker 6: Well, he has six months before the election. But you
1:29:16
Speaker 6: don't want to some people making up their mind today
1:29:18
Speaker 6: that I'm not going with a Republican. I mean it's
1:29:20
Speaker 6: not He has six months of the election, but he's
1:29:22
Speaker 6: in danger of losing people because I just got a text,
1:29:25
Speaker 6: for example, from a guy that's served in Iraq, served
1:29:29
Speaker 6: in Afghanistan, served in Kuwait, dragged people out of a
1:29:32
Speaker 6: burning building on nine to eleven. One guy did all that.
1:29:34
Speaker 6: His name is Thomas Sullivan. He's unning through us in Queens.
1:29:37
Speaker 6: He's a wonderful guy. He said, no more ceasefires. What
1:29:41
Speaker 6: he wants to see is unconditional surrender. And he loves Trump.
1:29:45
Speaker 6: So we don't have six months. If this thing ends
1:29:48
Speaker 6: in six months, it's going to be too little, too late.
1:29:51
Speaker 6: He needs to figure out a way to end this
1:29:53
Speaker 6: way before that and start to fix some of these
1:29:56
Speaker 6: economic issues. We're gonna have our asses handed to us
1:30:00
Speaker 6: come November. That's the bottom line.
1:30:03
Speaker 10: I guess I would disagree because if President Trump pulls
1:30:06
Speaker 10: US off in three months and the economy US economy
1:30:10
Speaker 10: will immediately start turning around, He'll be hailed as a
1:30:13
Speaker 10: great a great wise leader, and a great vic that's
1:30:16
Speaker 10: saved America, I hope.
1:30:17
Speaker 6: So you know I want that more than anybody.
1:30:19
Speaker 18: You know that.
1:30:19
Speaker 6: But yeah, and I love them, But I'm I talk
1:30:22
Speaker 6: to a lot of people, go to a lot of events,
1:30:25
Speaker 6: and try to help out a lot of Republicans in
1:30:28
Speaker 6: all these states, and they're very, very nervous. But I
1:30:31
Speaker 6: did like what I heard from Mike Huckabee yesterday. I
1:30:34
Speaker 6: were ambassador to Israel and I had the cut, but
1:30:36
Speaker 6: we can't seem to find it. But he talked about
1:30:39
Speaker 6: the seafire between Israel and Lebanon Lebanon, and he said, listen,
1:30:42
Speaker 6: the people of Lebanon and the people of Israel on neighbors.
1:30:45
Speaker 6: And by the way, I've got two friends defensive yours too,
1:30:49
Speaker 6: some of the most beautiful people Lebanese, one being Joseph A. Bood,
1:30:53
Speaker 6: who I think is the greatest men's fashion designer ever.
1:30:56
Speaker 6: The other being a US attorney in Washington, DC, Jean Piero.
1:30:59
Speaker 6: These are great Lebanese people. They love Israel. They got
1:31:02
Speaker 6: no issue with the Jews. The problem is Hasbola, and
1:31:06
Speaker 6: Israel is going to do whatever they have to do
1:31:08
Speaker 6: to wipe those mother Epras out. That's it.
1:31:12
Speaker 10: Yeah, And the Lebanese government has now agreed with Israel,
1:31:15
Speaker 10: and you know, people are even paying attentions. It's just
1:31:18
Speaker 10: like a little piece agreement, right, the ceasefire agreement that
1:31:20
Speaker 10: happened to sign yesterday between Israel and Lebanon in the
1:31:23
Speaker 10: Oval Office, with the President extending the ceasefire for three weeks,
1:31:28
Speaker 10: with the idea that it'll probably become permanent. And you
1:31:31
Speaker 10: have the leaders of Israel and the leaders of Lebanon saying,
1:31:34
Speaker 10: we agree that the scourge with the problem is not
1:31:38
Speaker 10: between the Jews and the Lebanese. The problem is between
1:31:42
Speaker 10: the two of us and Hesbelah and Hesbelah with the
1:31:46
Speaker 10: golden shining example of Iranian Iranian ambitions and Iranian lethality
1:31:54
Speaker 10: and Iranian evil, and that's what's being wiped out. The
1:31:57
Speaker 10: fact that they could have this kind of an agreement
1:32:00
Speaker 10: now with the potential of wiping out is largely because
1:32:05
Speaker 10: of what Israel's down already but it's also because it
1:32:07
Speaker 10: has belas not being funded anymore, because Iran doesn't have
1:32:10
Speaker 10: the money. I always think, you know how, the money
1:32:13
Speaker 10: is usually a pretty good plan when you're looking at
1:32:16
Speaker 10: your political event.
1:32:17
Speaker 6: Always always the case. Well, that was a unbelievable conversation.
1:32:21
Speaker 6: You're brilliant, you know things that no one else knows.
1:32:24
Speaker 6: It's all you're so great on this show every Friday. Really,
1:32:26
Speaker 6: kat that was a spectacular job today, sweetheart. Thank you
1:32:29
Speaker 6: so much.
1:32:30
Speaker 10: It's an honor, Thank you.
1:32:31
Speaker 3: My honor.
1:32:32
Speaker 6: Kate mcfallen. Boy, she is terrific here every Friday, and
1:32:35
Speaker 6: you'll see her all week long on Box News. And
1:32:38
Speaker 6: she knows her stuff. She's been in those rooms, those
1:32:41
Speaker 6: strategy rooms with four different presidents too, that I think
1:32:45
Speaker 6: we all agree are pretty good, right, Monald Reagan and
1:32:47
Speaker 6: President Trump.
1:32:48
Speaker 18: My bed.
1:32:49

1:33:00

1:33:03
Speaker 6: forty eight years mister Army these days too. He knows
1:33:07
Speaker 6: a lot about this war as well. Joseph Takapina, the
1:33:10
Speaker 6: voice in the face of sports. I believe he's the
1:33:13
Speaker 6: guy now in this country. ESPN Superstar and still still
1:33:18
Speaker 6: considering a twenty twenty eight presidential run. Stephen A. Smith.
1:33:22
Speaker 6: Everybody loves Steve. And we'll also talk to Blair White,
1:33:27
Speaker 6: who I believe is the biggest conservative transgender in the country.
1:33:31
Speaker 6: Today promises to be a fascinating conversation with Blair White
1:33:35
Speaker 6: and Adam Weiss. All that just today. You're not going anywhere, folks,
1:33:38
Speaker 6: I'm coming right back.
1:33:40
Speaker 26: Sid and Friends in the morning on the Red Apple
1:33:44
Speaker 26: Podcast Network.
1:33:46
Speaker 30: Recently, I had my passport. I had to get it renewed.
1:33:50
Speaker 30: I sent it back comes back. Gender marker m screws
1:33:58
Speaker 30: everything up, so there's a form in there. If they
1:34:03
Speaker 30: made a mistake, you can.
1:34:07
Speaker 18: Correct it.
1:34:08
Speaker 30: So I fill out all the proper forms. I'm not
1:34:10
Speaker 30: calling anybody. I'm not calling the president. You know, I
1:34:12
Speaker 30: got his personal cell number. I'm not calling anybody. I'm
1:34:15
Speaker 30: gonna see if I can fix this myself, because it's
1:34:17
Speaker 30: not just about me, It's about all people in this situation.
1:34:21
Speaker 5: You know.
1:34:23
Speaker 30: So I even sent a hard copy of my birth
1:34:28
Speaker 30: certificate Caterlebury Jenner, gender six female.
1:34:32
Speaker 3: I did everything and they sent it back.
1:34:35
Speaker 30: M they didn't change it at all.
1:34:37
Speaker 31: I'm going to quote trans advocate Janetta Johnson who said
1:34:41
Speaker 31: this in twenty fifteen.
1:34:43
Speaker 10: Jenner is a rich white She can pay for everything
1:34:47
Speaker 10: she needs.
1:34:48
Speaker 31: But I think she now needs to put some of
1:34:50
Speaker 31: that money back into the transgender community, as she has
1:34:53
Speaker 31: taken a lot all these years. We have been abused
1:34:58
Speaker 31: and battered, yet she has you none of her power
1:35:01
Speaker 31: to help the community and bring about change. And so
1:35:05
Speaker 31: you know, Caitlin Jenner, girl, crime me a river. Let
1:35:09
Speaker 31: me play my little violin for you, transgender. The changing
1:35:13
Speaker 31: the marker on the passports is an executive order that
1:35:17
Speaker 31: he signed on day ye on day one. So if
1:35:21
Speaker 31: you think that he didn't know what he was doing,
1:35:23
Speaker 31: if you think he wasn't fulfilling a campaign promise, because
1:35:26
Speaker 31: that's you say, he absolutely exploited this issue in order
1:35:30
Speaker 31: to get people to the polls. But I think there's
1:35:33
Speaker 31: a special place in hell for people who only care
1:35:35
Speaker 31: about themselves and don't care about the effect on others.
1:35:39
Speaker 31: If she's saying that this is a safety issue traveling
1:35:41
Speaker 31: internationally with the wrong marker on her passport. Imagine what
1:35:46
Speaker 31: the safety issue is for people who are not celebrities,
1:35:49
Speaker 31: who don't have access to.
1:35:50
Speaker 29: The White House and we don't have money.
1:35:53
Speaker 6: Yeah, there's a special place in hell all right for you,
1:35:55
Speaker 6: Anna and Obouro and the rest of those repulsive eggs
1:35:58
Speaker 6: that sit on Shohnald seven on the view every day,
1:36:01
Speaker 6: whether it's Whoopy Goldberg or Joy Bahar or Sunny Host,
1:36:04
Speaker 6: And there is a special place in hell for all
1:36:06
Speaker 6: of you. Enough for my friend Caitlin Jenner. So we're
1:36:10
Speaker 6: going to talk to Stephen A. Smith coming up about
1:36:12
Speaker 6: what the Jets and Giants did last night, and he's
1:36:15
Speaker 6: got his own take on what President Trump is doing
1:36:18
Speaker 6: in Iran. We're going to talk to Joe Takapino, the
1:36:20
Speaker 6: great defense attorney, my friend Scott Lobato. Do you want
1:36:23
Speaker 6: to send a shout out to my buddy Abraham Hamra.
1:36:26
Speaker 6: He's actually representing my other dear friend, Johnny Daniels. Johnny
1:36:30
Speaker 6: lives in Israel, but of course he was born in
1:36:32
Speaker 6: England and he's working on his immigration status. And Aby
1:36:36
Speaker 6: is a great immigration attorney. And I'm going to try
1:36:40
Speaker 6: to help these guys out with the State Department here
1:36:42
Speaker 6: in the United States. But regardless, Aby is a terrific guy,
1:36:45
Speaker 6: and he just said he confirmed, Hey, it is true
1:36:48
Speaker 6: what Kate t just said. The Lebanese people and the
1:36:51
Speaker 6: Israeli people they like each other. There are no issues.
1:36:55
Speaker 6: The issue is the proxy group funded by Iran, which
1:36:59
Speaker 6: is called Hesbola. But getting back to Caitlyn Jenner, I've
1:37:03
Speaker 6: got probably, next to Caitlin, maybe even including Caitlin, the
1:37:07
Speaker 6: most popular conservative transgender in my studios right now. Her
1:37:12
Speaker 6: name is Blair White. And the first thing I'm going
1:37:14
Speaker 6: to say is, Blair, when you walked in, there is zero,
1:37:18
Speaker 6: and I mean zero evidence you were ever a boy. Zero.
1:37:23
Speaker 8: Thank you, thank you. I don't know what to say
1:37:25
Speaker 8: to that, but thank you.
1:37:26
Speaker 6: How many years ago did you do this transition?
1:37:29
Speaker 8: It was about a decade.
1:37:30
Speaker 6: I was twenty, so you're thirty now, yeah, okay. And
1:37:34
Speaker 6: how old were you when you came to the realization
1:37:37
Speaker 6: that you're the wrong sex and the wrong body.
1:37:40
Speaker 8: Well, I think I'm in the right body. I don't
1:37:42
Speaker 8: think God necessarily makes mistakes. I just think that I
1:37:45
Speaker 8: have my own, you know, autonomy. I always knew I
1:37:47
Speaker 8: was different at a young age. But I'm also vary
1:37:50
Speaker 8: against children transitioning. That's something I've gotten a lot of
1:37:52
Speaker 8: blowback for in my career, and so I'm thankful that
1:37:55
Speaker 8: I was, you know, a legal adult and had a
1:37:58
Speaker 8: sound mind to make those decisions.
1:38:00
Speaker 6: You made that decision, Yeah, absolutely right. Your parents wouldn't
1:38:02
Speaker 6: do that.
1:38:03
Speaker 18: Yeah.
1:38:03
Speaker 8: And even a decade ago when I started, the trans
1:38:07
Speaker 8: kid thing was not really a topic, like it's a
1:38:10
Speaker 8: new thing. It's, in my opinion, very wrong, and I
1:38:13
Speaker 8: think it's caused a lot of backlash also against trans people.
1:38:16
Speaker 2: Wrong.
1:38:16
Speaker 6: I can't believe Blair, no disrespect to members of your community.
1:38:21
Speaker 6: Wrong as an understatement. I can't believe we're actually having
1:38:24
Speaker 6: this discussion. Not moms and dads, you know, can't be
1:38:27
Speaker 6: the ones or the kid for that matter, to make
1:38:30
Speaker 6: up their own mind. Not cities and states and the
1:38:33
Speaker 6: federal government. They make these decisions. And I don't care
1:38:37
Speaker 6: if it's transgender surgery, if it's vaccines. I think parental
1:38:41
Speaker 6: choice and freedoms. And I was just at a rally
1:38:44
Speaker 6: last night for a guy that I'm endorsing over Corey
1:38:46
Speaker 6: Booker in New Jersey. His name is Alex a dan.
1:38:48
Speaker 6: He's all about these freedoms. I can't believe in having
1:38:50
Speaker 6: these discussions.
1:38:52
Speaker 3: It's crazy.
1:38:53
Speaker 11: Yeah.
1:38:53
Speaker 8: Same, And you know, I'm born and raised in California.
1:38:56
Speaker 8: I lived there my whole life. It's known as a quote.
1:38:59
Speaker 6: Unquote Yeah, that's a terrible place.
1:39:01
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's known as a sanctuary state legally under Gavin
1:39:04
Speaker 8: Newsome for trans kids and immigrants. They're sanctuary for everybody.
1:39:09
Speaker 8: And so even if one parent disagrees with a child transitioning,
1:39:13
Speaker 8: the other parent can legally do it to the child.
1:39:16
Speaker 8: And but what's funny is you can't even go into
1:39:19
Speaker 8: a tanning bed until you're eighteen in California, but you
1:39:22
Speaker 8: can get a you know, sectioned as a child. It's
1:39:24
Speaker 8: very demented.
1:39:25
Speaker 6: It is demented. How many sexes are there? I mean
1:39:28
Speaker 6: genders are there? How many genders are there?
1:39:29
Speaker 8: I mean there's SiO there's too.
1:39:31
Speaker 18: Yeah.
1:39:32
Speaker 6: Sure, because a lot of members of your community and
1:39:34
Speaker 6: a lot of members of the press out there, especially
1:39:37
Speaker 6: in that horrible place that you live, which is beautiful.
1:39:39
Speaker 6: They'll get me wrong. I love parts of California. They
1:39:41
Speaker 6: tell me there's like seven or eight I don't know.
1:39:43
Speaker 6: Chuck Todd left me one time, and I said there
1:39:45
Speaker 6: was two, So there's two.
1:39:46
Speaker 8: Yeah, that was that was news to male and female.
1:39:49
Speaker 8: That was news to me too, you know. It's it
1:39:51
Speaker 8: all happened very very quick, the politicization of the topic
1:39:55
Speaker 8: and the changing of the goalpost of what it means
1:39:57
Speaker 8: to be trans what it means to be a manneral women.
1:40:00
Speaker 8: And I was never on board with it. I was
1:40:03
Speaker 8: told I had to be on board with it, which
1:40:05
Speaker 8: was news to me. I just made a personal choice
1:40:08
Speaker 8: for my own life, and then I found out it
1:40:10
Speaker 8: came with all these political talking points. You had to
1:40:12
Speaker 8: be on board with all these things you had to believe,
1:40:15
Speaker 8: when really I just believe in personal freedom and I've
1:40:18
Speaker 8: always leaned, you know, conservative. I come from my mother's
1:40:21
Speaker 8: side of the family is liberal, My dad is conservative,
1:40:24
Speaker 8: and I naturally gravitated that way always been.
1:40:27
Speaker 6: That's a real mixed marriage right there. Adam, when did
1:40:30
Speaker 6: you transition exactly? You you put on them so my
1:40:34
Speaker 6: companies look good? Yeah, So what's crazy about this? The
1:40:39
Speaker 6: mind control they put over people. It's almost the same
1:40:41
Speaker 6: as COVID, right, you had to say a certain narrative
1:40:45
Speaker 6: from the media, from the government.
1:40:47
Speaker 4: Otherwise they went after you. So it's a strong personality
1:40:49
Speaker 4: like Blair that is able to push back and say, no,
1:40:52
Speaker 4: my principles, my principles. What's right is what's right, and
1:40:55
Speaker 4: what's wrong is wrong. And we got to give credit
1:40:58
Speaker 4: for that because culture move that way so strong. And
1:41:01
Speaker 4: she said, you know, she gave him the big middle finger.
1:41:04
Speaker 6: Yeah, and that's well, you were said at Navarro, they're
1:41:07
Speaker 6: going after President Trump pretty hard. And look, I know
1:41:10
Speaker 6: the President very well with friends. I'm proud to say
1:41:13
Speaker 6: that I love the guy. And all of these criticism
1:41:16
Speaker 6: that come from the left, how he hates gays, and
1:41:18
Speaker 6: he hates transgenders, and he hates blacks. He basically hates everybody,
1:41:21
Speaker 6: you know, unless you make money and you're Jewish, which
1:41:23
Speaker 6: is ridiculous. But I'm going to ask you, meaning that
1:41:25
Speaker 6: you're in that community, how do you feel about the
1:41:27
Speaker 6: President of the United States.
1:41:29
Speaker 8: I haven't seen any hate out of the President towards
1:41:33
Speaker 8: gay people, trans people. When I look at the legislation
1:41:35
Speaker 8: that's been enacted, I still find it way more sensible
1:41:38
Speaker 8: than anything on the left, you know what I mean.
1:41:41
Speaker 8: Trans women and women's sport, that's another issue.
1:41:43
Speaker 3: I've been pretty big about that.
1:41:45
Speaker 8: I mean, I also think that that's wrong. I think
1:41:46
Speaker 8: that's unfair.
1:41:47
Speaker 3: Yeah, I do you are you crazy trying to get
1:41:49
Speaker 3: yourself killed? You're actually a.
1:41:54
Speaker 6: I don't know.
1:41:54
Speaker 8: I just I believe in fairness. I believe you know.
1:41:57
Speaker 8: I'm not a huge sports fan in general, I'm not
1:41:59
Speaker 8: a women's worst fan. But also at the same time,
1:42:02
Speaker 8: you should be able to recognize right from wrong, you
1:42:05
Speaker 8: know what I mean. So these are the topics that
1:42:07
Speaker 8: I've boughten a lot of you know, hate from from
1:42:09
Speaker 8: my own community. Definitely not well loved in the community necessarily,
1:42:14
Speaker 8: although a lot of them tend to, you know, behind
1:42:16
Speaker 8: closed doors.
1:42:17
Speaker 6: State of course they do right.
1:42:18
Speaker 3: But you can go to Bennett Night knowing you're on
1:42:20
Speaker 3: the right side of the issues. I don't Trump right.
1:42:23
Speaker 4: The Trump administration is so inclusive. The New York Times
1:42:25
Speaker 4: maybe three four months ago, did a big profile. It
1:42:28
Speaker 4: was called Trump's big gay government. If they went about
1:42:32
Speaker 4: and did that, think about it, it must be a
1:42:34
Speaker 4: lot of gays throughout his government.
1:42:35
Speaker 3: Well, listen.
1:42:36
Speaker 6: Rick Renell is a guy that's worked alongside the president
1:42:38
Speaker 6: for many years. My dear friend, my favorite homosexual of all.
1:42:41
Speaker 6: He's in Brussels right now. Bill White, he's been around
1:42:44
Speaker 6: the president.
1:42:44
Speaker 4: For a long great guy, great guy.
1:42:46
Speaker 6: They're all great guys, and the president has no issue.
1:42:48
Speaker 6: They got big, big jobs in his administration. It's complete nonsense.
1:42:51
Speaker 6: So you are not for men competing in women's sports.
1:42:55
Speaker 6: You readily admit they're only two sexes. What else out
1:42:59
Speaker 6: there that is saying that I believe in that, you
1:43:01
Speaker 6: believe in that even ostracideses you even more inside your
1:43:04
Speaker 6: own community, I.
1:43:06
Speaker 8: Mean, well probably a lot, you know, like just in general.
1:43:09
Speaker 8: Like I said, I've always leaned right, I'm a capitalist.
1:43:11
Speaker 8: That's something you're also not allowed to be anything, not
1:43:13
Speaker 8: in this city, No, especially under you guys knew the mayor,
1:43:18
Speaker 8: which I'm sorry for you that one.
1:43:20
Speaker 6: Right, Yeah, peggettes you got Cameen Bess not exactly great either,
1:43:24
Speaker 6: but right.
1:43:26
Speaker 8: You know, we lived through all the COVID years being
1:43:29
Speaker 8: anti vaccine, anti lockdown, all of that stuff. Even though
1:43:33
Speaker 8: now it's slowly even like a lot of Democrats are
1:43:36
Speaker 8: able to kind of be like, Okay, maybe we went
1:43:38
Speaker 8: a little far during those years. I've always just stood
1:43:40
Speaker 8: up for a limited government, government not telling you what
1:43:43
Speaker 8: to do with your body. Of course, I believe in
1:43:46
Speaker 8: bodily autonomy, because I utilize the bodily autonomy, and so
1:43:49
Speaker 8: that also includes if I don't want to do something
1:43:51
Speaker 8: I don't want to.
1:43:52
Speaker 3: Do, well, you don't have any remorse from doing this.
1:43:53
Speaker 8: I mean you have no When I look at the
1:43:56
Speaker 8: people these days, there are a lot of people detransitioning
1:43:59
Speaker 8: who have like regrets. Yeah, and those tend to be
1:44:01
Speaker 8: the ones who did it very very young as children,
1:44:03
Speaker 8: because obviously when you make a choice like that, it's
1:44:05
Speaker 8: not really a choice you're making.
1:44:07
Speaker 4: Right, when we were at Sea Pac recently, the floods
1:44:09
Speaker 4: of people the transition is going back to the originally
1:44:13
Speaker 4: were running up to Blair and thanking her.
1:44:15
Speaker 6: They were, which, yeah, she stands for good, right, it's
1:44:18
Speaker 6: gonna make it feel Yeah.
1:44:19
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's another you know, not a lot of people
1:44:21
Speaker 8: stand up for those individuals. And so I just like
1:44:25
Speaker 8: to provide on my podcast and on my YouTube channel
1:44:27
Speaker 8: just a full three sixty perspective on the issue, Whereas
1:44:30
Speaker 8: if you're just hearing from shows like The View, you're
1:44:34
Speaker 8: going to get just one side.
1:44:35
Speaker 3: Yeah, I forget.
1:44:36
Speaker 6: I had a girl in here not long ago. Got
1:44:38
Speaker 6: she was in here twice. He's a great young black
1:44:40
Speaker 6: lady was a big Jewish star. Ah, come on, she's
1:44:44
Speaker 6: a very famous transgender to also big conservative voice and
1:44:49
Speaker 6: short hair, blonde actually convati, yes, yes, trans been in
1:44:55
Speaker 6: the studio twice. What is the name Bella me? That's right,
1:44:57
Speaker 6: Bellamy Baluchi something like that.
1:45:00
Speaker 18: What she is?
1:45:00
Speaker 6: I don't look at him. She's exactly like you. Okay,
1:45:04
Speaker 6: same exact. We should probably be friends. Then, Yeah, she's
1:45:07
Speaker 6: a New Yorker and he should be friends because she
1:45:09
Speaker 6: says the same thing that you say, So Adam.
1:45:11
Speaker 3: Later on tonight, I'm supposed.
1:45:13
Speaker 6: To be honored again. I do it a lot. I
1:45:14
Speaker 6: love Chris Alonzo, she's terrific. And all the folks at
1:45:17
Speaker 6: the Metropolitan Club on the Upper east Side, they've got
1:45:19
Speaker 6: their annual galla tonight. Emily Austin will be there. Randy Fine,
1:45:23
Speaker 6: I love him. Down in Florida with Rudy Giuliani. Some
1:45:26
Speaker 6: big names are gonna honor your friend Blair Whitelater on.
1:45:28
Speaker 4: Clair White's Common. We also have Nick Shirley. That great
1:45:31
Speaker 4: investigator report came in. We're gonna give him an Investigative
1:45:35
Speaker 4: Journalist award. That kid is amazing when he's uncovering. He
1:45:38
Speaker 4: blew the doors off Minnesota.
1:45:40
Speaker 3: He was a guy. He made that.
1:45:41
Speaker 4: He made tampon Tim retire. Yeah, they've just him alone.
1:45:44
Speaker 4: He really did if Trump. We thought Trump could do
1:45:46
Speaker 4: it with his verbal jed, but Nick did it alone
1:45:49
Speaker 4: his investigation. And then we're going to tomorrow, we'll go
1:45:52
Speaker 4: into the white alternative White House Correspondent's Dinner with some events,
1:45:56
Speaker 4: and for the first time in eleven years, ten years,
1:45:58
Speaker 4: Trump is showing up. Yeahs to shutup when he was
1:46:01
Speaker 4: a celebrity was president. So the cool kid is showing
1:46:04
Speaker 4: up to the nerve problem. Let's see how they treat him.
1:46:08
Speaker 6: Well, they're no comedians this year, No, but they have
1:46:10
Speaker 6: some mentalists. I guess that's going to be the entertainment.
1:46:13
Speaker 6: What is this now, it's called an alternative.
1:46:15
Speaker 4: We're doing an alternative dinner a couple of these White
1:46:17
Speaker 4: House correspondents, the White House Correspondence Association, A lot of
1:46:21
Speaker 4: people can be in there.
1:46:22
Speaker 18: But they did.
1:46:23
Speaker 4: They refuse to give a guy by name of John
1:46:25
Speaker 4: Frederick's a table. He actually paid. They gave him the
1:46:27
Speaker 4: money back and they said we'll give you one ticket.
1:46:30
Speaker 4: He said, I can't go. I need my wife to go.
1:46:31
Speaker 4: They wouldn't give him a second ticket. He's a White
1:46:33
Speaker 4: House correspondent reporter. They don't want to let the alternative
1:46:36
Speaker 4: Meetia in. They're still, you know, they want their little cabal,
1:46:40
Speaker 4: I guess, to control it. So we created a small
1:46:42
Speaker 4: another little dinner at the Press Association, and we're going
1:46:46
Speaker 4: to celebrate. You're going to celebrate there.
1:46:48
Speaker 6: Oh cool?
1:46:49
Speaker 3: How many people you expect to go to that?
1:46:51
Speaker 4: A couple of hundreds?
1:46:52
Speaker 6: Oh, that's great.
1:46:52
Speaker 4: It's the first one. So we'll see how it goes.
1:46:54
Speaker 4: Because but let's see how they treat Trump. That's the
1:46:57
Speaker 4: real question. Will they stand up, will they test?
1:47:00
Speaker 5: Oh?
1:47:01
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know what's calc she's saying? Will they cry?
1:47:04
Speaker 3: The press? Probably all of that, all of that.
1:47:08
Speaker 6: Where can people find your podcast and your channel and
1:47:10
Speaker 6: all that cool stuff?
1:47:11
Speaker 8: I'm on YouTube, x, Instagram, all the socials, Spotify, and
1:47:16
Speaker 8: you can just google.
1:47:16
Speaker 3: Me and find me.
1:47:17
Speaker 6: And then you have a show once a week, a
1:47:20
Speaker 6: couple of shows a week. How often do you want
1:47:21
Speaker 6: the podcast?
1:47:22
Speaker 8: It's kind of just whenever I want, okay?
1:47:23
Speaker 3: Yeah?
1:47:24
Speaker 6: And do you deal mostly with the transgender issues or
1:47:27
Speaker 6: is it a pretty compact subic.
1:47:29
Speaker 8: I'm definitely obviously known for that, but I coverag just
1:47:32
Speaker 8: politics in general social issues. I just did a video
1:47:35
Speaker 8: about the literary crisis in America how no one can
1:47:38
Speaker 8: read anymore, which is really scary. Forty five million adults
1:47:41
Speaker 8: in America are functionally illiterate.
1:47:44
Speaker 6: I got two on my own show. Now there are
1:47:47
Speaker 6: three guys. You figure out the two guys I'm talking about.
1:47:50
Speaker 6: It's great to meet you, and I appreciate all.
1:47:52
Speaker 18: That you do.
1:47:53
Speaker 6: It takes a lot of courage, a lot of courage.
1:47:55
Speaker 6: So thank you for being a voice for us. And
1:47:57
Speaker 6: you're an important voice, so thank you for doing all that.
1:48:00
Speaker 6: And be careful. Okay, I got big Adam Weiser as
1:48:02
Speaker 6: your bodyguard. Adam's a tough kid. Used me a professional boxer.
1:48:06
Speaker 18: Do you know that?
1:48:07
Speaker 6: Really?
1:48:07
Speaker 4: No, No, A little bit when I was young.
1:48:09
Speaker 6: I how do you see?
1:48:11
Speaker 4: For a second?
1:48:13
Speaker 6: Out of good to see you. So you're going to
1:48:15
Speaker 6: DC tomorrow and then you go back to California on Sunday,
1:48:18
Speaker 6: right to Miami.
1:48:20
Speaker 8: Actually are you going to Miamiah we're doing about We're
1:48:22
Speaker 8: going to mar A Lago.
1:48:23
Speaker 6: Oh look at you living the life. God bless you
1:48:26
Speaker 6: have fun. We'll take a short break. That was Blair
1:48:29
Speaker 6: White and Adam Weiss Blair's Wheel Hero take a short break,
1:48:32
Speaker 6: We'll talk to Joe Tacopina, Scott Libato, and the face
1:48:35
Speaker 6: and voice of ESPN, a very very talented Stephen A. Smith.
1:48:40
Speaker 6: He'll be here to talk about the jet and giant
1:48:42
Speaker 6: trap last night, and also his thoughts on what we're
1:48:45
Speaker 6: doing with President Trump in Iran. All that's still a
1:48:47
Speaker 6: come the Body edition of Sitting Friends in the Morning
1:48:51
Speaker 6: rolls out Sid.
1:48:53
Speaker 26: And Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple Podcast Network.
1:48:59
Speaker 3: Get it in McCollum.
1:49:00
Speaker 20: Fire Hawks take the lead offensively and Dyson Daniels has
1:49:09
Speaker 20: been the best defender on Brunson.
1:49:12
Speaker 6: The Hawks stole one in Game two.
1:49:15
Speaker 28: It's down to the wire here in Game three, seven
1:49:18
Speaker 28: seconds left, punch him of the ball.
1:49:20
Speaker 6: Punching makes its brough unching on the baseline.
1:49:23
Speaker 3: Co's gonna suck it down.
1:49:28
Speaker 1: The looks older.
1:49:31
Speaker 3: And Lena takes a two long lead.
1:49:33
Speaker 16: In the series.
1:49:34
Speaker 22: The reality of it is and I told him this
1:49:36
Speaker 22: it's a seven game series for a reason. You know,
1:49:40
Speaker 22: stuff's gonna happen. There are plenty of teams have been
1:49:45
Speaker 22: down one two, you know, should I even think? Oklall
1:49:49
Speaker 22: the city was down one to last year and they
1:49:52
Speaker 22: end up winning winning it. So I'm not saying we're
1:49:54
Speaker 22: gonna win it or anything like that, but the reality
1:49:57
Speaker 22: of it is, it's it's seven games, and you take
1:49:59
Speaker 22: one game at a time. Each game is its own entity.
1:50:02
Speaker 22: And that's what I told the group. Now, this should
1:50:05
Speaker 22: stink because we gave ourselves a chance knowing that we
1:50:09
Speaker 22: didn't play our best basketball. So it should stink, but
1:50:15
Speaker 22: we need to feel it and get ready to be
1:50:18
Speaker 22: locked in for the next game, which we will be.
1:50:20
Speaker 3: Whatever.
1:50:22
Speaker 6: That was Iron Eagle, my dear friend Iron Eagle on
1:50:25
Speaker 6: the call. He was great last night. Hey, you can't
1:50:27
Speaker 6: lose an Eagle and bring They're both amazing. As a
1:50:30
Speaker 6: Nickabocker suffered their second consecutive one point loss to the Hawks,
1:50:34
Speaker 6: and then you heard from Nick coach Mike Brown. And
1:50:36
Speaker 6: as I said this morning, amidst all the trumpyron talk
1:50:39
Speaker 6: and talking to Blair White, a very courageous conservative transgender
1:50:44
Speaker 6: and studio not long ago, when Randy Sutton, the amazing
1:50:47
Speaker 6: cop the wounded Blue. As I said earlier this morning,
1:50:50
Speaker 6: the happiest guy in America right now has to be
1:50:53
Speaker 6: Tom Thibodeau. I'm sorry, he's got to be grinning ear
1:50:56
Speaker 6: to ear that son of a gun had the Knickerbocker's
1:50:59
Speaker 6: two games away from the NBA Finals. They got better
1:51:02
Speaker 6: every year. He won more and more games every year.
1:51:05
Speaker 6: And whatever the issue was with Leon Rose or I
1:51:08
Speaker 6: just don't care. So they fire him, they bring in
1:51:10
Speaker 6: Mike Brown, and now the Knicks. I don't think they'll
1:51:13
Speaker 6: lose this series, but they're losing now. So the best
1:51:17
Speaker 6: sports personality I believe in the world, I really believe
1:51:21
Speaker 6: that Stephen A. Smith has now distinguished himself as that.
1:51:24
Speaker 6: But he's so much more than that. He does this
1:51:27
Speaker 6: amazing show every week, and you know, he discusses a
1:51:31
Speaker 6: lot of stuff. He had some great points on President
1:51:34
Speaker 6: Trump and Iron for example. I agree with a lot
1:51:36
Speaker 6: of it. Two nights ago. Then he toured with the
1:51:39
Speaker 6: idea running for president not that long ago. Just a
1:51:41
Speaker 6: really smart guy and crebbe entertaining and he's my friend,
1:51:44
Speaker 6: Steven A. Smith. Steve Good Friday morning, buddy, how are you.
1:51:48
Speaker 18: Good morning.
1:51:50
Speaker 6: I'm great, and it's so great to talk to you.
1:51:51
Speaker 6: I think you'd agree with me that right now. Tom Thibodeaux,
1:51:54
Speaker 6: I'm not saying he's rooting for the Knicks to lose
1:51:56
Speaker 6: but you know how people are, They're.
1:51:57
Speaker 3: Gonna be honest.
1:51:58
Speaker 18: He's looking pretty good right now. He's looking pretty good
1:52:01
Speaker 18: right now. There's no there's no there's nowhere around. He's
1:52:03
Speaker 18: looking pretty damn good right now. You know, it's it's really,
1:52:07
Speaker 18: it's really not a good thing for the New York
1:52:09
Speaker 18: Knicks right now. Very very disgusted what I saw last night.
1:52:13
Speaker 18: I'm losing the game. Brunton back to back, bad place
1:52:17
Speaker 18: on offense to end the game, Parl Anthony Towns. I mean,
1:52:21
Speaker 18: this is the guy that can dominate the Atlanta Hawks
1:52:24
Speaker 18: in somehow, some ways. He's not as active of a
1:52:27
Speaker 18: part of an offense as he needs to be. He
1:52:29
Speaker 18: got a guy in Michael Bridges who can play, who's
1:52:32
Speaker 18: worth one hundred and fifty million that they're paying for
1:52:34
Speaker 18: him in his day's NBA economy. But it's never worth
1:52:38
Speaker 18: six first round picks for unprotected in order to get
1:52:41
Speaker 18: his services, particularly when you consider the fact that those
1:52:45
Speaker 18: assets that you surrendered to get him. Who's Jalen Brunson's boy.
1:52:49
Speaker 18: They won national championships of Villanova. That's why they went
1:52:52
Speaker 18: through all of that to get them. You know, it
1:52:55
Speaker 18: compromised their ability to get somebody like Giannis after d Koumpo,
1:52:58
Speaker 18: who would have already been a Knick from last summer
1:53:00
Speaker 18: had it not been for the Nick being for rest
1:53:03
Speaker 18: of those assets. So it's not a good day. I mean,
1:53:06
Speaker 18: they could still win this series, but there has been
1:53:09
Speaker 18: a drop off. Regardless of what statistics say, regardless of
1:53:13
Speaker 18: what their records say. This is not the same team
1:53:16
Speaker 18: that had the grit and the grind and the toughness
1:53:19
Speaker 18: that they had under Tom Thibodeaux. That is just a fact.
1:53:23
Speaker 3: Couldn't agree more.
1:53:24
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, is what it is.
1:53:27
Speaker 18: And we got to see what they're gonna do.
1:53:28
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, and you know, Hard is still valuable
1:53:31
Speaker 6: out there, does a good job McBride, but these guys
1:53:33
Speaker 6: even they're not the same. And you know, forget about
1:53:35
Speaker 6: the opense for a second. I mean, are you telling
1:53:37
Speaker 6: me that there's nobody on the Knicks that can stop
1:53:40
Speaker 6: see J McCollum, willly Steve.
1:53:43
Speaker 18: Yeah, certainly teams that way, cjs and savvy veterans. Has
1:53:45
Speaker 18: been around for a long time. He can really shoot
1:53:48
Speaker 18: the basketball, he can really play, He's poised under pressure,
1:53:52
Speaker 18: doesn't get nervous, can make big tom shots to keep
1:53:55
Speaker 18: forgetting He was the top two options for years in
1:53:57
Speaker 18: Portland with Damian Lillard. And not only that, they got
1:54:01
Speaker 18: a bunch of young thoroughbreds around him that can play
1:54:05
Speaker 18: but don't know any better. So they rely on him
1:54:07
Speaker 18: for poise, They rely on him for leadership, and they
1:54:10
Speaker 18: rely on him for clutch plays, whether it's scoring or
1:54:13
Speaker 18: setting somebody else to score. He knows what he's doing.
1:54:17
Speaker 18: And the New York Knickson not stop defensively across the board,
1:54:21
Speaker 18: because even though og can descend, even though Josh Hart
1:54:26
Speaker 18: can descend and Michel Bridges can descend, sometimes you can
1:54:30
Speaker 18: exploit Carl Anthony Towns on a perimeter and you can
1:54:33
Speaker 18: exploit Jaylan Brunton everywhere. And so the combination of all
1:54:36
Speaker 18: of those things, along with the absence of faith that
1:54:41
Speaker 18: Mike Brown has shown in his death in his death
1:54:45
Speaker 18: definitely plays a role, which is a problem, because that's
1:54:49
Speaker 18: one of the biggest reasons you decided to shift from
1:54:52
Speaker 18: Thibodeau to Mike Brown because of those things. Thibodeau's Achilles'
1:54:57
Speaker 18: heels of stubbornness, you know. And I think the nine
1:55:00
Speaker 18: of the Year last year came from Kenny to Jet Smith,
1:55:04
Speaker 18: formerly of TNT now ESPN with the Inside the NBA team,
1:55:08
Speaker 18: Kenny Smith had the line that I don't want you
1:55:10
Speaker 18: to ever forget sid and that line was this about
1:55:13
Speaker 18: Tom Thibodeau. Tom Thibodeaux would have a problem playing nine
1:55:17
Speaker 18: guys in a baseball game. That's what he said. That
1:55:21
Speaker 18: is right, and there was a lot of the year
1:55:25
Speaker 18: because it's absolutely true. That was Tom Thibodeaux. You know,
1:55:30
Speaker 18: he was stubborn in Chicago, he was stubborn in Minnesota.
1:55:34
Speaker 18: He swore he had learned the ever of his ways
1:55:36
Speaker 18: and started winning a little bit and got stubborn in
1:55:39
Speaker 18: New York. And it's a damn shame that he's not
1:55:42
Speaker 18: the head coach of his team, because if you just
1:55:44
Speaker 18: knew how to relax just a little bit and just
1:55:47
Speaker 18: laid off and didn't alienate players the way that he can,
1:55:51
Speaker 18: or an organization strictly because of his stubbornness, because he's
1:55:55
Speaker 18: so committed to the game of basketball. It's all he
1:55:58
Speaker 18: cares about, it's all he thinks about, that's all he does.
1:56:01
Speaker 18: But you got to lighten up. And because he didn't,
1:56:04
Speaker 18: he alienated the support of his players, and as a result,
1:56:08
Speaker 18: they wanted somebody different. Than him. Well, now they got it,
1:56:11
Speaker 18: and look at what's happening.
1:56:12
Speaker 3: One more on the Knicks.
1:56:13
Speaker 6: And this is one of the things I don't miss
1:56:15
Speaker 6: Steve about doing sports talk radio every day, because I'd
1:56:19
Speaker 6: be spending two hours on the fan today talking about
1:56:22
Speaker 6: how tomorrow's a must win Knicks camp ball down three
1:56:25
Speaker 6: games to one, Well can they can they come back
1:56:28
Speaker 6: and win three straight?
1:56:28
Speaker 3: Blah blah blah blah blah.
1:56:30
Speaker 6: I don't know if tomorrow's a must win or not,
1:56:32
Speaker 6: but as a Nick man, I'd rather be two two.
1:56:35
Speaker 6: It is no, no, no, no.
1:56:36
Speaker 18: You can't go down three one. Can't go down three one.
1:56:39
Speaker 18: Then this New York Knicks team is not built to
1:56:42
Speaker 18: come back from a three to one deficit. I'm not
1:56:44
Speaker 18: saying that it's impossible, but it's incredibly, incredibly daunty. The
1:56:49
Speaker 18: New York Knicks are not versatile enough to make you
1:56:53
Speaker 18: believe that they could figure out a multitude of ways
1:56:57
Speaker 18: to come away with three straight victories after being down
1:57:00
Speaker 18: three to one to a young Atlanta Hawk squad. They
1:57:02
Speaker 18: don't win Game four, so I don't believe they advanced
1:57:05
Speaker 18: into the second round.
1:57:06
Speaker 6: Wow, which would be a huge, colossal failure. I'll give
1:57:09
Speaker 6: me your impressions quickly because they don't want to get
1:57:11
Speaker 6: to the political news. What your impressions of the local
1:57:14
Speaker 6: football teams? You know, the Giant fans, I saw a
1:57:17
Speaker 6: lot of people on Instagram yelling and screaming. They wanted
1:57:20
Speaker 6: sexy players. They wanted the running back Love out of
1:57:22
Speaker 6: Notre Dame, with a wide receiver Tyson out of Arizona State,
1:57:26
Speaker 6: or even not safe yet of Ohio State. They didn't
1:57:28
Speaker 6: get either one. But Harwa fiell is like up the
1:57:30
Speaker 6: middle with a very good linebacker on and off the
1:57:33
Speaker 6: ball and a guard to protect Jackson. Dort that the
1:57:35
Speaker 6: Giants did very well. The Jets, they did add some talent,
1:57:38
Speaker 6: skilled players on our fense with the tight end out
1:57:40
Speaker 6: of Oregon and the wide receiver out of Indiana. What
1:57:43
Speaker 6: were your impressions of the local team?
1:57:45
Speaker 18: Stress? I thought both teams did well. I just don't
1:57:48
Speaker 18: give a damn because it's not the season, you know.
1:57:50
Speaker 18: I'm sticking tired of us winning in the month of
1:57:54
Speaker 18: April and May and then thinking up the joint from
1:57:57
Speaker 18: September through December. I can kill less. I'm not sold
1:58:00
Speaker 18: on them. I mean again, give them credit. What creditors do.
1:58:04
Speaker 18: They did what they needed to do to win the draft.
1:58:07
Speaker 18: Props to them, but you need more than that. And
1:58:10
Speaker 18: unfortunately these organizations that both organizations have shown us that
1:58:15
Speaker 18: they're bereast of making the rights. They just struggle to
1:58:17
Speaker 18: make the right decisions. Tom and Tim and Tom. Again,
1:58:20
Speaker 18: I'm not a namord with what I'm seeing, and so
1:58:23
Speaker 18: we got to wait team. But they did make the
1:58:25
Speaker 18: right picks, especially with the New York Jets. I'm one
1:58:28
Speaker 18: of those guys who firmly believes do what got you there,
1:58:32
Speaker 18: meaning that if you're a head coach, what got you
1:58:34
Speaker 18: to head coach the job? If you're Aaron Glenn, it
1:58:36
Speaker 18: was because you're a defensive wizard. Okay, fine, go out
1:58:40
Speaker 18: and make sure that the Jets are elite defensively. That's
1:58:44
Speaker 18: how I am. If that's what got you the job,
1:58:46
Speaker 18: make sure that once you get the head coaching job,
1:58:49
Speaker 18: you don't forget what got you the job. So I'm
1:58:51
Speaker 18: good with that. So if you want to show up
1:58:53
Speaker 18: your defense and show everybody that you're going to have
1:58:56
Speaker 18: a big time defense, and you bring in the personnel
1:58:58
Speaker 18: to do that, especially after losing winning Williams and those
1:59:00
Speaker 18: guys last year and tank in the second half of
1:59:03
Speaker 18: the season final. Just go ahead and do it. But
1:59:06
Speaker 18: I'll be happy when I see them win games when
1:59:09
Speaker 18: they count fair enough.
1:59:10
Speaker 6: One more on sports, And I know that you talked
1:59:14
Speaker 6: about it, and I enjoyed your conversation because you're an
1:59:17
Speaker 6: entertaining guy. But it's everywhere, and I gotta tell you,
1:59:19
Speaker 6: I don't care. I don't care who Diana Russini is
1:59:24
Speaker 6: sleeping with, even if he is the coach of the Patriots,
1:59:26
Speaker 6: whether he's married or not. Put that crap with our
1:59:29
Speaker 6: buddy Kevin Fraser on entertainment tonight. Why this is turning
1:59:32
Speaker 6: into a major sports story. Every other story on my
1:59:35
Speaker 6: Instagram is Russini and Brabel. I couldn't care less.
1:59:39
Speaker 18: I feel bad. I know Diana Russini a little bit.
1:59:43
Speaker 18: We work together at ESPN for ten years. She's a
1:59:46
Speaker 18: good person, She's a damn good reporter. I feel very,
1:59:50
Speaker 18: very bad for her, but it's undeniable that she put
1:59:53
Speaker 18: herself in a compromising situation. I'm not here to cast
1:59:56
Speaker 18: Endia Spurgeon is on her to judge her or anything
1:59:58
Speaker 18: like that, you know, And what I will say to
2:00:01
Speaker 18: people is this, and I don't get into people's bedroom
2:00:04
Speaker 18: and stuff like that, because when we don't talk about
2:00:07
Speaker 18: enough in the country that everybody's marriage is different. You
2:00:10
Speaker 18: got a lot of people in this country that have
2:00:11
Speaker 18: married the name only you know that marriage is not
2:00:14
Speaker 18: what you think it is when it comes to their
2:00:17
Speaker 18: specific relationship. So you don't know what the hell is
2:00:20
Speaker 18: going on in somebody's relationship. I mean, I've seen it.
2:00:22
Speaker 18: All said is I'm sure you've had. I've seen people
2:00:25
Speaker 18: that have been married, they got open relationships, open marriages,
2:00:28
Speaker 18: they swing in, they're doing all kinds of stuff that
2:00:30
Speaker 18: you know. I mean, you just never know, so you
2:00:33
Speaker 18: don't get you don't get caught up in all of that.
2:00:36
Speaker 18: Here's what I would tell you where it becomes. This
2:00:38
Speaker 18: is the one point. And I said this on my
2:00:39
Speaker 18: radio show on Mad Dog Sports Radio series extem every
2:00:42
Speaker 18: day for one to three pms incead of the time.
2:00:44
Speaker 18: I said, listen, here's what we have to understand. Mike
2:00:50
Speaker 18: Rabel's got some answering. The do to his family is why.
2:00:58
Speaker 6: Uh oh the money shot was coming. Literally, He's right,
2:01:04
Speaker 6: Mike Rabel. The person he has to answer to first
2:01:09
Speaker 6: is his wife. And he's actually admitted those have been
2:01:11
Speaker 6: difficult conversations. Let's get right back to see if you're
2:01:14
Speaker 6: making the point, and you're right that Rabel he's got
2:01:16
Speaker 6: to start.
2:01:17
Speaker 3: With his wife. Oh he's not there yet. Okay, I
2:01:20
Speaker 3: thought he was.
2:01:23
Speaker 6: There.
2:01:23
Speaker 9: He is.
2:01:24
Speaker 6: Let's get Steve back on the phone. He was saying,
2:01:26
Speaker 6: Rabel has to start with his wife.
2:01:28
Speaker 18: Right, his wife. Okay, actually starts to end with his
2:01:33
Speaker 18: wife and his family. He doesn't owe us an explanation
2:01:36
Speaker 18: for a damn thing. Here's where the problem comes in
2:01:38
Speaker 18: with Diana received. You are a reporter covering the team
2:01:45
Speaker 18: and the sport. If you were a reporter covering the NFL,
2:01:51
Speaker 18: but you were seeing with somebody with hockey or somebody
2:01:55
Speaker 18: on the NBA or whatever, it's none of our business.
2:01:59
Speaker 18: But the fact of the matter is you covered the
2:02:01
Speaker 18: NFL and there's numerous stories that you were reporting on
2:02:07
Speaker 18: that involved him and the Patriots. So because of that,
2:02:15
Speaker 18: now the conflict of interest comes into play. Okay, did
2:02:20
Speaker 18: you report? Were you objective in your reporting? Were you
2:02:23
Speaker 18: just reporting what was fed to you? How was it
2:02:26
Speaker 18: fed to you? Did the pillow talk? What was it
2:02:30
Speaker 18: you know? Did you serve his agenda or did you
2:02:33
Speaker 18: serve the objective? Agenda and the objective of the athletic
2:02:36
Speaker 18: and your readers. That's the stuff that made it become
2:02:41
Speaker 18: such a public spectacle that the industry had to touch
2:02:46
Speaker 18: and couldn't avoid because that is something that you simply
2:02:50
Speaker 18: don't do.
2:02:51
Speaker 3: And that's where the problem lies.
2:02:53
Speaker 18: She's married, he's married. Whatever, that's their business, that's their
2:02:57
Speaker 18: family business. We don't know the specific She denied it initially,
2:03:02
Speaker 18: so did he, and then all of a sudden he
2:03:04
Speaker 18: has this useless press conference where he's talking but saying
2:03:08
Speaker 18: absolutely nothing. And as far as I'm concerned, through her
2:03:10
Speaker 18: under the bus because he had no business speaking about
2:03:13
Speaker 18: it at all publicly, but he did anyway, and so
2:03:16
Speaker 18: that's really really unfortunate that he did something like that,
2:03:20
Speaker 18: certainly to cover himself. That didn't work. But in the end,
2:03:23
Speaker 18: what it came down to, what it comes down to
2:03:25
Speaker 18: is that when you're in our business, you don't put
2:03:28
Speaker 18: yourself in those compromising situations, especially when you're the females,
2:03:34
Speaker 18: because the females are the ones holding you accountable. You
2:03:37
Speaker 18: have to remember a lot of times, and I want
2:03:39
Speaker 18: to say this on your show, and I said this
2:03:41
Speaker 18: publicly because I think people need to hear this. So
2:03:43
Speaker 18: many times when stuff like this comes out, particularly about
2:03:48
Speaker 18: women covering professional sports, a lot of people think it's
2:03:52
Speaker 18: the men going off. That's not true. It's the women
2:03:56
Speaker 18: in the industry that are going off about women who
2:04:00
Speaker 18: put themselves in that position. Because anytime something like that happens, women,
2:04:07
Speaker 18: most of whom would never think to do such a thing,
2:04:10
Speaker 18: look at themselves as having their credibility questions, how did
2:04:14
Speaker 18: you get to where you were? Did you? Did you?
2:04:17
Speaker 18: Did you? You know what? What? What mechanisms did you use?
2:04:23
Speaker 18: So women are you know, women, the women of high
2:04:27
Speaker 18: integrity throughout the years that have been instituted, the wonderful
2:04:31
Speaker 18: women like the Christine Brennans of the world of the USA,
2:04:34
Speaker 18: today's uh, the Sarah Jenkins of the Washington Poles, uh
2:04:38
Speaker 18: uh you know, uh, you just just Pam Oliver at Fox,
2:04:42
Speaker 18: you see Storm, ESPN, and you know Robbing, Robbing, Roberts
2:04:50
Speaker 18: and so many others that are institutions. They're just phenomenal
2:04:54
Speaker 18: and great and stuff like that, who would never find
2:04:57
Speaker 18: themselves in their position. You don't ever, ever ever want
2:05:01
Speaker 18: to put yourself in that kind of position as a
2:05:03
Speaker 18: woman in this business, because when that happens. Everybody raises
2:05:08
Speaker 18: an eyebrow, and women guard against that with everything they
2:05:13
Speaker 18: have the credibility, the credibility of what they do. So
2:05:17
Speaker 18: when one comes along and finds themselves in that kind
2:05:20
Speaker 18: of compromise a position, these women are highly sensitive to
2:05:24
Speaker 18: it as well as they should be. A lot of
2:05:27
Speaker 18: times they're thinking this the men that are complaining about
2:05:30
Speaker 18: stuff like that, No it's not. It's the women that
2:05:34
Speaker 18: hold down that standard, and they're right to do so,
2:05:37
Speaker 18: they're not wrong.
2:05:39
Speaker 6: That may be the best point of home. You just
2:05:40
Speaker 6: made a great argument why it does matter. So now
2:05:44
Speaker 6: you've completely convinced me. I was like, I just don't care.
2:05:47
Speaker 6: But you made a great argument based upon the profession,
2:05:49
Speaker 6: and you're right. Women unfortunately are viewed by a lot
2:05:52
Speaker 6: of guys like how did she get there? This doesn't help?
2:05:55
Speaker 6: But you know it? Me when you talked about well
2:05:58
Speaker 6: did she you know? Change the story is integrity comes
2:06:02
Speaker 6: into playing or reminded me of the Senate confirmation hearings
2:06:06
Speaker 6: when they sit down and they go, are you gonna
2:06:08
Speaker 6: like but Trump? Are you gonna tell the truth? Are
2:06:11
Speaker 6: you gonna make sure that story makes Trump look good?
2:06:13
Speaker 6: Kind of like you're talking about with the Rucini and Rabel.
2:06:16
Speaker 6: But that's the first thing I thought of was, wow,
2:06:18
Speaker 6: that's like a Senate confirmation hearing.
2:06:21
Speaker 18: Yeah, it is, I mean to some degree, it has
2:06:24
Speaker 18: to be when it comes to her, not Rabel. And
2:06:28
Speaker 18: then you have people calling up saying it's a double standard.
2:06:30
Speaker 18: I said, no, sir, it's not a double standard. It's
2:06:34
Speaker 18: not a double standard at all, because we're not talking
2:06:36
Speaker 18: about gender. We're not talking we're talking about the institution.
2:06:40
Speaker 18: If you are a guy and you are covering the NBA,
2:06:45
Speaker 18: the w NBA, and then you happen to be it's
2:06:50
Speaker 18: revealed that you have some kind of relationship with a
2:06:53
Speaker 18: female coach of the w NBA that you're covering the
2:06:57
Speaker 18: same apply.
2:06:58
Speaker 6: Yeah, sure, sure even now even the the w n
2:07:04
Speaker 6: B A came er fire last week, the Dallas Wings
2:07:06
Speaker 6: because they've got two girls who were together Unsuitay of Connecticut,
2:07:10
Speaker 6: they drafted He's Fudd.
2:07:12
Speaker 18: Well, that's totally different because see that here's the thing
2:07:15
Speaker 18: that's an agreed that was an egregious story that I
2:07:18
Speaker 18: spoke out against that too. That's involving Paige Beckers and
2:07:21
Speaker 18: as Ossie Fudd, the teammates at Yukon. You know, Paige
2:07:25
Speaker 18: Beckers went to the pros. Before she went to the pros, uh,
2:07:29
Speaker 18: they confirmed that they have a relationship with one another.
2:07:32
Speaker 18: So what they're two players. You understand one is not
2:07:35
Speaker 18: an authoritative figure or anything like that. Whatever their relationship is.
2:07:38
Speaker 6: Yeah, but but but you don't want these are your
2:07:41
Speaker 6: two best players on the team. If they get into
2:07:42
Speaker 6: a fight the night before and one of these girls
2:07:44
Speaker 6: can't can't perform, you can't.
2:07:47
Speaker 18: You can't go by that because listen, listen. I've seen situations. Listen.
2:07:51
Speaker 18: I've been covering sports for years. I know of a
2:07:54
Speaker 18: situation where a player got traded because the coach was
2:07:56
Speaker 18: screwing around with the cheerleader, and and and then they
2:08:00
Speaker 18: and then the player ended up messing with her. I mean,
2:08:03
Speaker 18: I've covered stories like this. You understands saying I know
2:08:06
Speaker 18: what I'm talking about. But what I'm saying to you
2:08:08
Speaker 18: is that that's different. Two young consensing adults having a
2:08:12
Speaker 18: relationship with one another is not a crime. The reason
2:08:16
Speaker 18: why that story was so bad is because it implied
2:08:19
Speaker 18: that the Dallas Wings went out and got Ozzi Fudd
2:08:22
Speaker 18: because of the relationship with Paige Beckers. As opposed to
2:08:26
Speaker 18: Ozzy Fudd being one of the elite players in college basketball,
2:08:30
Speaker 18: This young lady is a sensational basketball player who proved
2:08:33
Speaker 18: it time in and time out on the basketball court
2:08:36
Speaker 18: that she was worthy of a stature as a top player.
2:08:40
Speaker 18: So to imply that the only reason that the Dallas
2:08:44
Speaker 18: Wings brought her on board as the number one overall
2:08:47
Speaker 18: pick is because she's so tight with Tage Beckers is
2:08:51
Speaker 18: an insult to her credentials and what she has established
2:08:55
Speaker 18: and she has accomplished. That's not fair, you undersaid, because
2:08:59
Speaker 18: look at just stripped strictly on her game. There's nobody
2:09:03
Speaker 18: that could look at her and say, well, she wasn't
2:09:06
Speaker 18: worthy of the number one over She's great, because that's great,
2:09:08
Speaker 18: because that's just a complain.
2:09:09
Speaker 3: Yeah she's great.
2:09:10
Speaker 6: He's great. Yeah, No, she's great. And there'll be a
2:09:13
Speaker 6: good basketball team this year, the Dallas Wings. I want
2:09:16
Speaker 6: to move on over. I did catch your your monologue
2:09:20
Speaker 6: of your show a couple of nights ago when you
2:09:22
Speaker 6: talked specifically about President Trump and Iran, and I don't
2:09:26
Speaker 6: know if you go you know, at this point, Steve,
2:09:28
Speaker 6: I think you've come to find that even though I'm
2:09:30
Speaker 6: a maga guy, and I love Trump and I have
2:09:32
Speaker 6: a hard time criticizing him. That doesn't mean I don't.
2:09:36
Speaker 6: And I think you've come to realize now that you
2:09:38
Speaker 6: and I happened to agree a lot more than maybe
2:09:41
Speaker 6: you would have thought before you and I started this
2:09:44
Speaker 6: really great relationship and this great friendship, and I agreed
2:09:47
Speaker 6: with just about everything you said just a couple of
2:09:50
Speaker 6: nights ago on your show. But for the audience that
2:09:52
Speaker 6: did not hear it, let him know how you feel
2:09:54
Speaker 6: about this whole conflict in Iran.
2:09:57
Speaker 18: Well, listen, I think that, first of all, I think
2:10:00
Speaker 18: most of us as American citizens agree more than we disagree.
2:10:05
Speaker 18: I just think that in the binary system that we're
2:10:08
Speaker 18: living in, where we have two sides that have gone
2:10:12
Speaker 18: to the extreme, you know, that kind of divide and
2:10:16
Speaker 18: polarization has been stirred and instigated by politicians on Capitol Hill,
2:10:21
Speaker 18: which is why they get on my damn nerves, which
2:10:24
Speaker 18: is why I don't like them. You understand, I'm here
2:10:26
Speaker 18: in Washington, d C. Because I'm going to the White
2:10:28
Speaker 18: House Correspondence dinner tomorrow or tomorrow night, and I'm here
2:10:32
Speaker 18: to tell you something. Right now. They asked me a
2:10:34
Speaker 18: question about it. Folks will get their feelings hurt because
2:10:36
Speaker 18: I'm sick and tired of what they're doing to this country.
2:10:39
Speaker 18: You know, we're not that divided. We're reasonable people as
2:10:42
Speaker 18: American citizens if we just sit down and talk with
2:10:45
Speaker 18: one another. Having said that, here's my issue with President
2:10:48
Speaker 18: Trump with the Iran situation. When you can see folks
2:10:52
Speaker 18: in Maga turning against them, I don't blame them. You
2:10:55
Speaker 18: advertise that, market it yourself as being America first. That
2:10:58
Speaker 18: is not how you have come across you have you
2:11:01
Speaker 18: have You have been doing a bit too many things
2:11:04
Speaker 18: that have deviated from America being the priority.
2:11:07
Speaker 6: But I'm telling you, but I can't make the argument Steven,
2:11:10
Speaker 6: this one case for the Iran You're right, he's done
2:11:12
Speaker 6: some things ago. But I can make the argument that
2:11:14
Speaker 6: America first, Iran started this forty seven years ago, we
2:11:18
Speaker 6: did nothing about it.
2:11:20
Speaker 18: Yeah, I'm not disagreeing with that. I don't have a
2:11:23
Speaker 18: problem with him attacking Iran. What I'm saying is is
2:11:26
Speaker 18: inconsistent with what you said. You said you obliterated them
2:11:30
Speaker 18: last June. True, and then suddenly you felt the need
2:11:34
Speaker 18: to attack them again. Well, why you were either wrong
2:11:37
Speaker 18: then or you're wrong. Now which one is it? Because
2:11:39
Speaker 18: it's not consistent?
2:11:40
Speaker 6: Okay?
2:11:41
Speaker 18: And then secondly, where's the plan? How do we exit it?
2:11:44
Speaker 18: Because you said no new wars, no forever wars. Well,
2:11:47
Speaker 18: how is this ending? Are we sure it's gonna end?
2:11:50
Speaker 18: It can't be believe me, believe me, no, but not
2:11:52
Speaker 18: believing me? Where the facts? What are you gonna show us?
2:11:55
Speaker 18: You know, people have a right to know that because
2:11:57
Speaker 18: of the American citizens, what I've employed on you and
2:12:00
Speaker 18: a lot of people on the right. A lot of times,
2:12:03
Speaker 18: it ain't just about believing you. Sometimes you scaring the
2:12:05
Speaker 18: living hell out of people, meaning him, because of the
2:12:08
Speaker 18: tactic that he's willing to utilize. I understand it's totally
2:12:12
Speaker 18: plausible that you might be talking, blustering and all of
2:12:15
Speaker 18: this other stuff just to scare the living hell out
2:12:17
Speaker 18: of people because that's your negotiation tactic. But we don't
2:12:20
Speaker 18: know that for sure. We just don't. And so because
2:12:23
Speaker 18: of that, you want to see a plan of action.
2:12:25
Speaker 18: You want to see coordination. You want to make sure
2:12:27
Speaker 18: that he's listening to the right people. You want to
2:12:29
Speaker 18: make sure that he's doing within the best interest of
2:12:31
Speaker 18: the American citizen, and far more often than not these days,
2:12:35
Speaker 18: more so his second term than even his first term,
2:12:38
Speaker 18: we've gotten the oppression that that's not the case. And
2:12:41
Speaker 18: so that was the thing for me. I'm like, go
2:12:42
Speaker 18: ahead and attack Ron because obviously, with what they've been
2:12:45
Speaker 18: doing over the last forty seven years or so, it's unacceptable.
2:12:48
Speaker 18: They've killed the American citizens, they've been a top sponsor
2:12:51
Speaker 18: for terrorism around the world. They try to kill him.
2:12:55
Speaker 18: They certainly have shown a propensity and a willingness to
2:12:59
Speaker 18: do whatever harm to America that they can. Damn it,
2:13:01
Speaker 18: get their asses. I got it. But in the same breath,
2:13:05
Speaker 18: you also got to be consistent. If you're saying this
2:13:07
Speaker 18: is what the issue is, don't change it up. And
2:13:10
Speaker 18: in the meantime, don't ignore affordability issues in this country.
2:13:15
Speaker 18: Don't avoid safety in the streets, don't avoid these things
2:13:18
Speaker 18: that are going on in America that needs your attention
2:13:20
Speaker 18: as well.
2:13:20
Speaker 6: Mother With the safety in the streets, I mean, look,
2:13:23
Speaker 6: the guy has sent his people to a bunch of cities,
2:13:26
Speaker 6: including are you going to be tomorrow night? That's a
2:13:29
Speaker 6: much safer city because of Trump.
2:13:31
Speaker 18: Well, listen, you can say that, and I'm not even
2:13:34
Speaker 18: going to disagree with that. But in the same breath,
2:13:37
Speaker 18: here's what I will portion you about because a lot
2:13:39
Speaker 18: of times with people know, so many people are so
2:13:42
Speaker 18: enthralled with him that they're forgetting the importance of precedents.
2:13:46
Speaker 18: When you look at the Supreme Court and some of
2:13:48
Speaker 18: the decisions that they have made and what they're going
2:13:50
Speaker 18: to make in the future. Said, take this into consideration.
2:13:53
Speaker 18: How many times is precedent deferred to when a decision
2:13:59
Speaker 18: is being made. A lot of times people are so
2:14:01
Speaker 18: gung ho about Trump, they're like, year, go ahead, go ahead,
2:14:05
Speaker 18: not remembering he's going in twenty twenty eight, twenty second Amendment,
2:14:09
Speaker 18: ain't getting circumvented. Somebody else is going to be in there.
2:14:12
Speaker 18: They don't have his cachet, they don't have his pro badal,
2:14:15
Speaker 18: they don't have this swag, they don't have his ability
2:14:17
Speaker 18: to deliver and cultivate this communication in this relationship with
2:14:21
Speaker 18: his people. They don't have those things going on. So
2:14:24
Speaker 18: when you allow him to get away with just anything okay,
2:14:27
Speaker 18: and you stay hell with the law on the books,
2:14:29
Speaker 18: hell with all of this nonsense. We need this done now,
2:14:31
Speaker 18: whe then the next president is going to have an
2:14:33
Speaker 18: excuse And what if that's a Democrat that is completely
2:14:36
Speaker 18: against everything that said. Rosenberg and some of the people
2:14:39
Speaker 18: that vibe with you believe in what are you going
2:14:41
Speaker 18: to feel like? Then you got to be careful about
2:14:44
Speaker 18: all that. That's what makes our country great, that we
2:14:46
Speaker 18: have a standard that we live on, a rule of
2:14:49
Speaker 18: law that makes sure that's applicable to everybody, so nobody
2:14:53
Speaker 18: gets to use the excuse of circumventing it. Whether it's Obama,
2:14:56
Speaker 18: whether it's w Bush, whether it was Clinton, whether it's
2:15:00
Speaker 18: body whether it's somebody in the future. You want to
2:15:03
Speaker 18: guard the interest of the country, not the interest of
2:15:08
Speaker 18: the individual you so happen to like that happens to
2:15:11
Speaker 18: be in office at this particular moment in time. You
2:15:14
Speaker 18: have to be careful about that.
2:15:16
Speaker 6: And this is why you're a major superstar. We started
2:15:19
Speaker 6: talking about the Nicks and the Hawks, we talked about
2:15:21
Speaker 6: the NFL draft, we talked about Russini and Rabel and
2:15:25
Speaker 6: you closed out with the very sensible, I mean this
2:15:29
Speaker 6: very common sense approach to the presidency and how this
2:15:32
Speaker 6: country can heal. That's why steven A, I love you.
2:15:35
Speaker 6: That's why you're a superstar, and that's why I know
2:15:38
Speaker 6: it's going to cost you about fifty million dollars. But
2:15:41
Speaker 6: you still got to run in twenty eight.
2:15:44
Speaker 18: I'm not giving up my money. They're not getting me
2:15:46
Speaker 18: to do that. They're not getting me to do that.
2:15:48
Speaker 18: I glad I will gladly listen for me personally said,
2:15:52
Speaker 18: I'll tell you this right now. It ain't even about
2:15:54
Speaker 18: being an office so much for me. I would give
2:15:56
Speaker 18: anything to be on that debate stage and stand next
2:16:00
Speaker 18: to these politicians were up and down that they've had
2:16:03
Speaker 18: the interest of the American people and stand in front
2:16:06
Speaker 18: of my face and say that, because I would tell
2:16:09
Speaker 18: you right now, I think I'd.
2:16:10
Speaker 3: Eat them alive because I know they have I know they.
2:16:13
Speaker 18: Haven't done that. And that's my whole point. It's like,
2:16:16
Speaker 18: I don't vibe with everything sid Rosenberg says. Everything you
2:16:20
Speaker 18: say ain't wrong. Everything Trump does is not wrong. Everything
2:16:25
Speaker 18: that comes out of Marc or Rubio's mouth is not wrong.
2:16:28
Speaker 18: The same applies to the Democrat. There's some things you're
2:16:30
Speaker 18: right about, there's some things you may be wrong about.
2:16:33
Speaker 18: Sit down, be adults, talk about it, and stop trying
2:16:36
Speaker 18: to position yourself just to turn the American people against
2:16:41
Speaker 18: one another. I know that I wouldn't be that person
2:16:44
Speaker 18: I know that I stand up and say, you know
2:16:45
Speaker 18: what does a damn good point? You know what them
2:16:47
Speaker 18: borders like like? You know, with all the liberals that
2:16:49
Speaker 18: I know, you're not going to tell me that we
2:16:51
Speaker 18: did the wrong thing by closing the borders. When you
2:16:53
Speaker 18: open them and you're let twelve to fifteen million people
2:16:56
Speaker 18: in the country, you can't tell me that. Now. I
2:16:58
Speaker 18: don't like the optics with and how that was utilized.
2:17:01
Speaker 18: Minnesota's one example, la Portland, Chicago, places like that. But
2:17:06
Speaker 18: there is no denying that closing the borders was necessary.
2:17:11
Speaker 18: It's just about how you do things. You can't sit
2:17:13
Speaker 18: up there and complain about the borders being closed when
2:17:16
Speaker 18: you said nothing when Obama deported three point one million people.
2:17:19
Speaker 18: We ain't getting away with that. We're not going to
2:17:20
Speaker 18: be hypocrites. But in the same breath, how you handle
2:17:23
Speaker 18: stuff matters because it assuages the concerns of the American people.
2:17:28
Speaker 18: It brings a calmness to us that we know things
2:17:31
Speaker 18: are happening with adults in the rooms. Don't talk to
2:17:34
Speaker 18: me about Pushner and whitkof going over as envoys to us,
2:17:38
Speaker 18: and those are our most qualified individuals to do it.
2:17:42
Speaker 18: We gotta be able to do better than that. Stuff
2:17:45
Speaker 18: like that is what I'm talking about here. And if
2:17:47
Speaker 18: you talk to the American people with that kind of sense,
2:17:49
Speaker 18: I think it goes along with Stephen.
2:17:51
Speaker 6: You're beautiful and enjoy the White House correspondence. Send it
2:17:54
Speaker 6: tomorrow night, and good luck to one Nick's in game
2:17:57
Speaker 6: four tomorrow and let's do this again very very soon.
2:18:00
Speaker 6: You really are. You're terrific, Steve, really, thank you so much.
2:18:03
Speaker 18: That was great anytime, man, you take it easy.
2:18:05
Speaker 3: You're the best.
2:18:06
Speaker 6: Stephen A. Smith, he is a great guest and a
2:18:09
Speaker 6: terrific guy. We become really good friends. That was one
2:18:13
Speaker 6: your papa didn't see coming, did you. I'm not sure
2:18:15
Speaker 6: if it's more shocking Randy Levine, the president of the
2:18:18
Speaker 6: New York Yankees.
2:18:18
Speaker 3: So Stephen A.
2:18:19
Speaker 6: Smith. But both of those guys are terrific guys.
2:18:21
Speaker 3: We'll take them that debate stage.
2:18:23
Speaker 6: Would be scared him. Come up, Hey, listen the guy.
2:18:26
Speaker 6: He's smart. He makes a lot of sense.
2:18:28
Speaker 19: Terrified to see he'd kill him, eat him up.
2:18:31
Speaker 6: He eat him up, he eat him with them. Yeah,
2:18:33
Speaker 6: I'm gonna take a break. We have a lot more
2:18:35
Speaker 6: smart people still. Look come the relentless patriot, the brilliant artist,
2:18:39
Speaker 6: my man Scott Lobato out of Staten Island, and my
2:18:42
Speaker 6: main man of forty eight years, the brilliant defense attorney.
2:18:45
Speaker 6: And now mister Army, I call him mister Army. The
2:18:47
Speaker 6: great Joseph Tacapino.
2:18:49
Speaker 26: All that still a com Sid and Friends in the
2:18:52
Speaker 26: Morning on the Red Apple Podcast Network, nine.
2:18:57
Speaker 6: Thirteen, Friday Morning, been a great Shaw, Ryan kill Me
2:19:00
Speaker 6: was here, Randy Sutton, Blair White? Can you even tell
2:19:05
Speaker 6: whill be completely honest? Can you even tell that Blair
2:19:08
Speaker 6: White was ever a boy?
2:19:11
Speaker 19: I'm incapable of being completely honest, So there's a lot
2:19:14
Speaker 19: of me all right, can phrase it again? Because I
2:19:18
Speaker 19: don't was.
2:19:20
Speaker 6: There any evidence that that person, that lady Blair White,
2:19:24
Speaker 6: the transgender who was in this studio earlier this morning,
2:19:27
Speaker 6: was ever a boy?
2:19:29
Speaker 19: I had I could see slight.
2:19:31
Speaker 6: Really I didn't see it.
2:19:33
Speaker 19: Yes, But maybe I'm maybe I'm just biased because I knew.
2:19:36
Speaker 6: Woll I think, so maybe that's it. Probably they're probably
2:19:39
Speaker 6: being honest, okay, because this doctor did a good job.
2:19:42
Speaker 19: Looks amazing, I know, looks amazing.
2:19:44
Speaker 6: Kath mcfalland was great. Stephen A. Smith. This guy's been
2:19:47
Speaker 6: my friend for forty eight years. It's the best defense
2:19:50
Speaker 6: attorney in the country. He's also mister Army these days,
2:19:53
Speaker 6: and he's great on this show every Foday. And I
2:19:55
Speaker 6: think he's a Raiders fan. I'm pretty sure he is,
2:19:57
Speaker 6: So maybe he's excited before I get to that. I
2:19:59
Speaker 6: did mention last segment that you'd be surprised that Stephen A.
2:20:02
Speaker 6: Smith and Randy Levine, the President Yankees, have become good friends.
2:20:06
Speaker 6: I did say this earlier. Steve Cohen reached out to
2:20:09
Speaker 6: me yesterday, which is very nice. He didn't have to.
2:20:11
Speaker 6: He did the owner of the New York Mets, and
2:20:14
Speaker 6: we had a great fifteen minute phone call where he
2:20:17
Speaker 6: said to me, and I quote, I want a relationship here.
2:20:21
Speaker 6: So I'm going to the met Yankee game in Queen's
2:20:24
Speaker 6: on the fifteenth of May with Bill O'Reilly and Cohen said,
2:20:27
Speaker 6: you're sitting with me. You're gonna be in my in
2:20:29
Speaker 6: my suite, and we're going to start this conversation because
2:20:33
Speaker 6: he admitted basically that I'm a big voice in New York,
2:20:36
Speaker 6: if not the biggest, and he wants to have a
2:20:41
Speaker 6: good relationship. So it was a great phone call. I
2:20:44
Speaker 6: cannot share the specifics about all the subjects that have
2:20:48
Speaker 6: bothered me. We discussed all of them, but I will
2:20:51
Speaker 6: maybe had a letter date. So just wanted Joseph to know,
2:20:53
Speaker 6: because he's a metman as well, that at the very least,
2:20:57
Speaker 6: Steve Cohen and I on a very good terms tac
2:21:00
Speaker 6: very good terms.
2:21:02
Speaker 24: Yeah, I'm happy, sir. I want to talk to you
2:21:03
Speaker 24: about this. I really don't this is this is such
2:21:05
Speaker 24: a strain in our relationship. You know, I love you
2:21:08
Speaker 24: and I care about you. But every time I see
2:21:11
Speaker 24: the Mets lose, which is every day they.
2:21:14
Speaker 6: Want to strike, we want to still go to the
2:21:18
Speaker 6: World Series. I said to Steve, I said, are you
2:21:20
Speaker 6: gonna be mad when I come to when I come
2:21:21
Speaker 6: to that game and I come to you a sweet
2:21:23
Speaker 6: I'm wearing a Greg Naddos jors. He's not going to
2:21:24
Speaker 6: bother you. So he didn't say, no, you're not doing that.
2:21:27
Speaker 24: Don't do that, don't do don't do that. You don't
2:21:29
Speaker 24: do that. You don't do that. I don't know if
2:21:32
Speaker 24: you do that representing representing us. You can't do that
2:21:34
Speaker 24: problem please, And it's just it's crazy. I mean, you know,
2:21:37
Speaker 24: you don't be anxious of cowtowing to AOC.
2:21:39
Speaker 6: Right, girl, I know what, that's a stretch.
2:21:45
Speaker 24: There must be anti Semitis.
2:21:46
Speaker 18: I guess.
2:21:49
Speaker 6: You, bunny, are you still a Raiders fan?
2:21:52
Speaker 2: Of course?
2:21:52
Speaker 24: You see, I'm not like you.
2:21:55
Speaker 6: No, no, no, no, you weren't exactly like You're exactly
2:21:57
Speaker 6: like me because I remember very young Joseph Tacapina getting
2:22:01
Speaker 6: pen marks on my father's Cadillac right after you got
2:22:04
Speaker 6: bab Midfid who used to come to school wearing a
2:22:07
Speaker 6: Minnesota Viking Joe Censor, Jersey.
2:22:09
Speaker 24: Joe Censor. But I was a tight end freak and
2:22:11
Speaker 24: I played tight end for Polly, you know that. And
2:22:14
Speaker 24: Joe Censer was my favorite tight end ever.
2:22:16
Speaker 6: So I love Jo. I can't even remember that, and
2:22:18
Speaker 6: talking was awesome.
2:22:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, there you go.
2:22:20
Speaker 6: You like the Vikings. It's fine. So you got to
2:22:22
Speaker 6: be thrilled that Mendoza's your new quarterback, right.
2:22:25
Speaker 24: Finally, finally, I mean I was.
2:22:27
Speaker 2: So.
2:22:27
Speaker 24: I saw Mark Davis and spoke to Mark at the
2:22:29
Speaker 24: National Championship game, and I said, Mark, and we talked
2:22:32
Speaker 24: to Mark Dozie for a while. I said, please just
2:22:35
Speaker 24: draft Mendoza, right, we're doing that, right? He's like, well, yeah,
2:22:38
Speaker 24: I'm gonna leave it to GM. But as Mark I said,
2:22:41
Speaker 24: we're drafting Mendoz right. I was convinced we're going to
2:22:43
Speaker 24: draft a punter with the first pick of the draft
2:22:46
Speaker 24: up until yesterday.
2:22:47
Speaker 6: So I'm so happy right now.
2:22:49
Speaker 3: They did good.
2:22:49
Speaker 6: But I do want to ask you quickly about because
2:22:51
Speaker 6: you know this team better than anybody. You saw Mark
2:22:53
Speaker 6: Davis at the championship game, mind Polkes. That was Miami
2:22:56
Speaker 6: against Indiana, and Joseph has a great relationship with the
2:22:59
Speaker 6: Herr Kaine's great the kid. The Giants shocked everybody the guard.
2:23:04
Speaker 6: The Giants took number ten overall first round pick. They
2:23:08
Speaker 6: traded Dexter Lawrence to Cincinnati to get this kid, Magoa
2:23:12
Speaker 6: Magawi from the Hurricanes.
2:23:14
Speaker 24: Mawg, Yeah, how is He's amazing? So he was the
2:23:18
Speaker 24: I think he was the best offensive eleven college last year.
2:23:20
Speaker 24: He is he is a rocket, is one of those
2:23:22
Speaker 24: Samoan beasts, like he's like a tree. But he's also
2:23:26
Speaker 24: a great guy leader. It was a great, a really
2:23:29
Speaker 24: great pick. Giants had a hell of a draft, by
2:23:31
Speaker 24: the way, you know, And I just think that was
2:23:34
Speaker 24: that was a great pick. And by the way, you know,
2:23:37
Speaker 24: I don't even want to view was back anymore because
2:23:39
Speaker 24: we're back to that where we are. We're here, We're here.
2:23:42
Speaker 24: But we had three guys drafted in the first.
2:23:43
Speaker 3: Round, so it was three, you're right, it was three.
2:23:46
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's a big deal.
2:23:49
Speaker 24: Yeah, exactly.
2:23:50
Speaker 6: So who's the quarterback again?
2:23:51
Speaker 3: This year?
2:23:52
Speaker 6: We got somebody else?
2:23:53
Speaker 24: Could mensa? Oh right, mensa from I saw. I was
2:23:56
Speaker 24: at the spring game last Saturday on the sideline with
2:23:59
Speaker 24: Mario and and the coaches and watching that thing. And
2:24:01
Speaker 24: this kid, Oh my god, this kid looks amazing. Bro,
2:24:04
Speaker 24: he looks amazing. He came from Duke, right, Duke. Yeah,
2:24:07
Speaker 24: he's his one hundred yard a thousand yard receiver with
2:24:10
Speaker 24: this little white guy. It looks like he should be
2:24:12
Speaker 24: in glee club. But he's amazing too. I mean, you know,
2:24:16
Speaker 24: all right, let's go Hurricane, let's see all right.
2:24:19
Speaker 6: So that's all. That's all the good news. The bad
2:24:21
Speaker 6: news is is that last I checked, you and I
2:24:24
Speaker 6: still love and live and work in a city where
2:24:28
Speaker 6: somebody like Ken Griffin, I know, you know him, Joseph
2:24:31
Speaker 6: with somebody like Ken Griffin is now a criminal only
2:24:34
Speaker 6: in this city.
2:24:35
Speaker 24: Right, It's just unreal. I mean, what Mandami did by
2:24:39
Speaker 24: going there and doing that little stunt of his. You know,
2:24:43
Speaker 24: you know Ken Griffin's done to the city, right, I
2:24:45
Speaker 24: mean for the city he has donated still handling the
2:24:48
Speaker 24: philanthropic causes to the tune of about six hundred million
2:24:52
Speaker 24: piece in New York City. Okay, he just perched the
2:24:56
Speaker 24: home for what two point two eighty three at the
2:24:59
Speaker 24: ten at two hundred eighty twenty three eight billion. That's
2:25:04
Speaker 24: that's spending money in New York City.
2:25:06
Speaker 6: Okay.
2:25:07
Speaker 24: Citadel, his company and its affiliates are paid over two
2:25:10
Speaker 24: point three billion in taxes in the last five years. Okay,
2:25:15
Speaker 24: So without guys like that, you know, the taxing, the ritual,
2:25:19
Speaker 24: that nonsense that he does, we would be hurting so badly.
2:25:22
Speaker 24: I mean, Citadel now is reconsidering a six billion dollars
2:25:26
Speaker 24: in new city development project because of Wolden's nonsense with Mndami.
2:25:30
Speaker 24: So that's really really great. Isn't that really great that
2:25:33
Speaker 24: that Mundammie is making like a clown of themselves.
2:25:36
Speaker 6: And by the way, not just not just the money, Joseph,
2:25:38
Speaker 6: six billion dollars and like you pointed out, people like
2:25:41
Speaker 6: him and my boss love him. John Catchment, Titi's Blackmen
2:25:44
Speaker 6: they pay these taxes. His his project at three fifty Park,
2:25:48
Speaker 6: you're looking at the very least six thousand construction workers
2:25:52
Speaker 6: fifteen thousand total employees. Right then, you got people have
2:25:56
Speaker 6: to live here, They got to pay for that, They
2:25:57
Speaker 6: have to go to restaurants. The revenue of of and
2:26:00
Speaker 6: beyond the actual project is all money. But New York City,
2:26:04
Speaker 6: what is this guy doing?
2:26:05
Speaker 24: Really threatened to our core as a city. You know,
2:26:07
Speaker 24: basically what this says, New York City is the greatest
2:26:09
Speaker 24: city in the world. It's the global financial capital of
2:26:12
Speaker 24: the world. It's where you know, if you make it here,
2:26:15
Speaker 24: you can make it anywhere, right Frank said, that's not true.
2:26:17
Speaker 24: So so so you know, here's the crazy part. What
2:26:20
Speaker 24: this message sends. The one mondaminance given is success in
2:26:24
Speaker 24: New York City is a liability. Okay, it's liability and
2:26:27
Speaker 24: and and you know, hedge funds are leaving thanks for
2:26:30
Speaker 24: shrinking in presence, talent is leaving and talent follows money,
2:26:34
Speaker 24: by the way, right, So so it's just it's unbelievable
2:26:38
Speaker 24: when the great cities are in decline and then you
2:26:40
Speaker 24: have someone like this. You know, you don't grow with
2:26:42
Speaker 24: city by punishing the people funding the city.
2:26:44
Speaker 18: You idiots.
2:26:45
Speaker 24: Okay, it's just impacting the rich. It's exporting the rich.
2:26:49
Speaker 24: But it's not what it's making sure everyone who has
2:26:52
Speaker 24: the ware results that spend money in this great city
2:26:54
Speaker 24: has to leave.
2:26:55
Speaker 11: Uh.
2:26:56
Speaker 24: You know, it's just it's it's it's it's you can't
2:26:57
Speaker 24: run New York City like a protest movement. It's it's
2:27:00
Speaker 24: an economic engine. I love that so disgusting.
2:27:02
Speaker 6: I love that. Have you put that anywhere like so
2:27:05
Speaker 6: you cannot run the city like a protest I love that.
2:27:09
Speaker 24: A protest movement. That's what he's running like that. I
2:27:10
Speaker 24: know it's a protest movement. That's all that Stunty did yesterday.
2:27:15
Speaker 24: It's one of the cities great, great institutions, one of
2:27:18
Speaker 24: the great sort of contributors to the New York City
2:27:20
Speaker 24: philanthropic scene.
2:27:22
Speaker 18: Was ridiculous.
2:27:23
Speaker 3: It was terrible.
2:27:24
Speaker 24: It's running the city like a protest movement.
2:27:27
Speaker 3: I love that.
2:27:27
Speaker 6: I'm gonna use that. I'm going to steal that from you.
2:27:29
Speaker 6: It's not just ridiculous, it's actually disgraceful. Ken Griffin is
2:27:32
Speaker 6: a terrific guy and a very successful guy, and we
2:27:36
Speaker 6: should be celebrating people who are successful and uh, and
2:27:41
Speaker 6: not turning them, treating them like their criminals. I do
2:27:43
Speaker 6: want to get back to the war for a second.
2:27:45
Speaker 6: You've been great with this. I had Kat mcfallan on earlier.
2:27:49
Speaker 6: She's great too. She worked for Trump, she worked for
2:27:52
Speaker 6: for President. She's on Box News almost every day, she's
2:27:55
Speaker 6: on this show every Friday. I think she's great, but
2:27:57
Speaker 6: she is all in here.
2:27:59
Speaker 3: I mean.
2:28:00
Speaker 6: So, I pointed out some of the things that was
2:28:02
Speaker 6: provided to me by a friend who happened to be
2:28:04
Speaker 6: at the Pentagon this week. That person will remain nameless,
2:28:07
Speaker 6: talking about how the straight up her moves wasn't an
2:28:09
Speaker 6: issue before and now it is, how a nuclear weapon
2:28:12
Speaker 6: really wasn't on its way now it may be all
2:28:15
Speaker 6: the five or six different things. I read them one
2:28:17
Speaker 6: by one, and her quote to me was, well, they're
2:28:20
Speaker 6: all untrue. Every one of those are on true. I said, well,
2:28:23
Speaker 6: do you think that maybe the president keeps ceasefire, cease fire,
2:28:28
Speaker 6: ceasefire because truth be told, he's not exactly sure what
2:28:32
Speaker 6: to do next and maybe was stuck. And she was
2:28:34
Speaker 6: revolted by that, actual suggestions revolted.
2:28:38
Speaker 24: So you know, deadlines that keep moving don't pressure your adversary.
2:28:44
Speaker 24: They empower your adversary, because how many times has the
2:28:47
Speaker 24: President said, if this doesn't happen, we're going to obliterate
2:28:52
Speaker 24: their civilization. We're going to by this date, you know
2:28:55
Speaker 24: last time it was by Tuesday night. If this isn't done,
2:28:59
Speaker 24: we're going to rank hell on them. They'll never going
2:29:01
Speaker 24: to put them back into the stone age where they
2:29:03
Speaker 24: belong to that ago seventeen days ago.
2:29:06
Speaker 3: That's right.
2:29:07
Speaker 24: And and you know, a ram store like laughing at
2:29:10
Speaker 24: us a little bit. Right, they're making posts like going,
2:29:12
Speaker 24: oh is that eight pm Eastern Standard time or Indian times?
2:29:16
Speaker 22: Right?
2:29:16
Speaker 24: You know, it's like they did that, really they did.
2:29:18
Speaker 24: They posted in response to that threat because they knew
2:29:21
Speaker 24: it wasn't gonna happen. I mean, if they were really scared,
2:29:23
Speaker 24: they wouldn't be mocking that threat. And what's happening is
2:29:26
Speaker 24: every time we keep doing this, every time we keep
2:29:30
Speaker 24: moving away, it chips away the terms because now all
2:29:33
Speaker 24: red lines looks lex flexible, like these ends of the
2:29:36
Speaker 24: world had deadlines look flexible. And once your adversary believes
2:29:41
Speaker 24: you won't act decisively, you've already lost grounds. So the
2:29:45
Speaker 24: essential of this seas far with the rand is being
2:29:47
Speaker 24: sold to stability. But it's actually the opposite. To me,
2:29:50
Speaker 24: it's a sound that there's really no clear path forward
2:29:52
Speaker 24: because when you have leverage, you don't extend, you conclude,
2:29:55
Speaker 24: you dictate the terms. Right. I mean, I remember President
2:29:58
Speaker 24: Trump saying there's no one negotiation here. This is a
2:30:02
Speaker 24: complete and total surrender. They will surrender to all of
2:30:06
Speaker 24: our times, right. And now we're trying to negotiate with them.
2:30:09
Speaker 24: And because we haven't done it, we're going to extend
2:30:11
Speaker 24: it again for another three weeks. And I guarantee you
2:30:13
Speaker 24: that's going to be extended again.
2:30:14
Speaker 6: Great cluse.
2:30:15
Speaker 24: What we can't do is keep doing this. We can't
2:30:17
Speaker 24: keep fighting. We're in a war that has no end
2:30:20
Speaker 24: in sight. And said, I'm telling you this is if
2:30:23
Speaker 24: this comes from the real war fighters I'm talking from, right,
2:30:27
Speaker 24: this is we're in a pickle here, we really are. Okay,
2:30:31
Speaker 24: this is not something where you know we have the
2:30:34
Speaker 24: ability to go in there and molliterate them, because we can't.
2:30:37
Speaker 24: We're in a massive hole financially. Also, don't forget, we're
2:30:40
Speaker 24: kind of ammunision. Okay, the war is burning. Listen to
2:30:44
Speaker 24: this number the burning, and roughly one billion would be
2:30:50
Speaker 24: dollars per day. No, okay, sid I swear that's all.
2:30:54
Speaker 24: These are Pentagon numbers. One billion a day in six
2:30:57
Speaker 24: days we spent over eleven point three and that was
2:31:00
Speaker 24: only partial accounting. It doesn't include all these pre war
2:31:04
Speaker 24: build up, the troop deployment, and long term replacement costs.
2:31:07
Speaker 24: It's just crazy. This is war. This is like a
2:31:09
Speaker 24: financial free fall with no killing. And it's it's it's scary,
2:31:13
Speaker 24: and that's you know, we're in this particamly.
2:31:15
Speaker 18: And and I don't care what taking for aside.
2:31:18
Speaker 24: I respect her in all, But if right now, if
2:31:21
Speaker 24: we can get this from Iran, if we can get
2:31:24
Speaker 24: they don't control the straight anymore. Their oil is sanctioned,
2:31:30
Speaker 24: and they will not build nuclear weapons, right right, So,
2:31:38
Speaker 24: and all the US bases in the Gulf become assets again,
2:31:42
Speaker 24: not liabuildings. Right if we got those three things.
2:31:44
Speaker 6: We win not really want to see. Not even then
2:31:47
Speaker 6: I disagree. What about the IOG, what about the IRGC?
2:31:51
Speaker 6: What about those psychos? Will still be in charge, They'll
2:31:54
Speaker 6: just do the same thing in ten.
2:31:55
Speaker 24: Year regime change. There is no regime change there. What
2:31:57
Speaker 24: are you kidding me?
2:31:58
Speaker 6: Well, you got you gotta kill you gotta go and
2:32:00
Speaker 6: all these RGC guys, you gotta take them out.
2:32:01
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, got to kill them.
2:32:03
Speaker 24: They're embedded in the society thereway, we're never changing it, right,
2:32:07
Speaker 24: We're never changing it. And by the way, I thought
2:32:10
Speaker 24: we weren't supposed to do that, right. I thought that
2:32:12
Speaker 24: was the new problems because I've watched a lot of
2:32:14
Speaker 24: clips and footage where everyone in this administration, from the
2:32:17
Speaker 24: President to the Vice President, to the Second War to
2:32:21
Speaker 24: Tulci Gabbart, all these people saying the same thing. We're
2:32:25
Speaker 24: not fighting other country wars anymore. We're not fighting stupid
2:32:29
Speaker 24: you know, endless wars where we used.
2:32:31
Speaker 6: But this wasn't a stupid war and they started at
2:32:33
Speaker 6: forty seven years ago. I just don't know if we
2:32:36
Speaker 6: ever really had a great plan from the beginning.
2:32:39
Speaker 24: No, No, we definitely did have a great plan in
2:32:41
Speaker 24: the beginning, because if you have a great plan in
2:32:43
Speaker 24: the beginning, you protect your basis and your embassies. First move,
2:32:47
Speaker 24: second move, you secure the straight before you go in,
2:32:50
Speaker 24: not actually go in. And because we didn't secure our
2:32:53
Speaker 24: basis embassies, we lost a lot of human life, American lives,
2:32:56
Speaker 24: and our basis embassies are gone. They are a liabilities.
2:32:59
Speaker 24: Now they're not all stranglehold anymore. And the strait is
2:33:03
Speaker 24: now you know, we're negotiating, and now that they're putting
2:33:05
Speaker 24: land mines down maybe or you know, minds under the straight.
2:33:10
Speaker 18: It's a mess.
2:33:11
Speaker 4: It is a mess.
2:33:11
Speaker 24: And I'm telling you we have an ammunition problem.
2:33:14
Speaker 6: No, I believe it, and they don't because they're getting
2:33:16
Speaker 6: They don't, none of the Russians. I keep reading every
2:33:19
Speaker 6: day NBC. Hey, you know whatever Pete Heeks has said,
2:33:23
Speaker 6: it's not true. They are they are fine, They've got
2:33:25
Speaker 6: plenty of weaponry.
2:33:27
Speaker 3: They're not They're not going to go.
2:33:28
Speaker 24: I saw that today. He said they're they're a pirate
2:33:30
Speaker 24: ship army. No, oh, no, they're not. They're not right.
2:33:33
Speaker 6: No good thing. You're here to tell the truth.
2:33:34
Speaker 3: I got to run.
2:33:35
Speaker 6: But these, uh, these appearances with you on Friday, I
2:33:38
Speaker 6: gotta be honest because I bring on a lot of
2:33:39
Speaker 6: people I love them, and a lot of them just
2:33:42
Speaker 6: kind of tow the line. And I know you love Trump.
2:33:44
Speaker 6: You've represented them twice in legal battles and you guys
2:33:47
Speaker 6: are close. But you come every Friday with the real
2:33:49

2:33:52
Speaker 24: Advice too, said so, and that's that's why I'm here.

2:33:57
Speaker 24: got people who are supposed to know this. Yeah, him
2:34:00

2:36:25

2:36:42
Speaker 6: the amazing artist, the man who's gonna actually accept an
2:36:46
Speaker 6: award on my behalf tonight. We go to talk to
2:36:48
Speaker 6: my buddy Scott Lobato right after these messages Sid.
2:36:52
Speaker 26: And Friends in the morning on the Red Apple podcast network.
2:36:57
Speaker 6: So initially I was a little Lebato because he pulled
2:37:02
Speaker 6: one of his world famous art stunts yesterday and the
2:37:06
Speaker 6: one before yesterday I think I was at, which was
2:37:09
Speaker 6: the unveiling of that amazing mom Donnie painting right outside
2:37:13
Speaker 6: of City Hall Lobato and I did it together. His
2:37:16
Speaker 6: amazing painting painting. It was hosted by Johnny Tobacco was
2:37:19
Speaker 6: actually on Wise Guys. But then it occurred to me
2:37:21
Speaker 6: that I was in New Jersey all day yesterday, so
2:37:23
Speaker 6: I couldn't go him anyway. But I guess Scotty pulled
2:37:27
Speaker 6: off another one of his amazing art stunts at Grand
2:37:30
Speaker 6: Central Terminal, but I'm not sure it ended well as
2:37:33
Speaker 6: it usually doesn't. Scott is an amazing artist, he really is.
2:37:38
Speaker 6: He is very talented, relentless patriot, just a great American.
2:37:44
Speaker 6: So you got to rest it again yesterday or no?
2:37:47
Speaker 18: No, I uh, I dropped that option that I did have.
2:37:54
Speaker 6: First off.
2:37:55
Speaker 11: I you know I'm the relentless patriot, but I have
2:37:58
Speaker 11: been haunted all morning by the relentless Johnny Tobacco to
2:38:02
Speaker 11: try to convince you to still stop by this event tonight.
2:38:06
Speaker 11: I know you can't, but I was told by Johnny
2:38:09
Speaker 11: that I would be in trouble if I didn't ask you.
2:38:11
Speaker 6: No, I know the deal.
2:38:14
Speaker 11: Every minute he's sweet and so.
2:38:15
Speaker 6: I know I know he's great. He keeps texting me
2:38:18
Speaker 6: and believe me, Chrish Alenzo, who actually runs that Metropolitan
2:38:22
Speaker 6: Club scott and she's honored me a million times in
2:38:25
Speaker 6: the past. She keeps texting me and that they could
2:38:27
Speaker 6: not be any nicer. And again, I haven't missed any
2:38:29
Speaker 6: of these met club events in the ten years I've
2:38:32
Speaker 6: been here. But these were birthday plans that Danielle put
2:38:35
Speaker 6: out a while ago. It includes restaurants and hotel stays
2:38:39
Speaker 6: and it's just gonna be really difficult for me to
2:38:41
Speaker 6: ditch my wife and my friends at a restaurant.
2:38:43
Speaker 11: But yeah, that's what I That's what I told him
2:38:46
Speaker 11: and said, you know, you know, listen, you're a superstar
2:38:48
Speaker 11: now and you're getting pulled everywhere, and I know how
2:38:50
Speaker 11: it is. My girlfriend's like, where you going now? You
2:38:52
Speaker 11: don't run to do I promised me, did you know
2:38:55
Speaker 11: you got to balance it out? So fair enough? But
2:38:58
Speaker 11: if you want, I will accept the war tonight. Send
2:39:00
Speaker 11: me a little something later on what you want me
2:39:02

2:40:59
Speaker 11: It's yeah, I think it's New York and which is

2:41:03
Speaker 11: I did yesterday you know, I got to do these things.
2:41:06
Speaker 11: It's that I have to just you know, provoke and
2:41:09
Speaker 11: get emotion out of people, especially what's going on. So
2:41:12
Speaker 11: I made these twenty four by thirty six printouts of
2:41:17
Speaker 11: that man Dandie painting the Mayor's official portrait I did,
2:41:21
Speaker 11: and I put frames on them, lightweight, and I put
2:41:24
Speaker 11: some double sided tape, and I went through the terminal,
2:41:27
Speaker 11: had some friends filming it, and I started putting these
2:41:30
Speaker 11: things up. And it's a beautiful place, Grand Central Terminal,
2:41:33
Speaker 11: very clean. There's no graffiti, there's no signers or nothing.
2:41:36
Speaker 11: And I put up about ten of them, and then
2:41:39
Speaker 11: I didn't get to finish, and all of a sudden,
2:41:42
Speaker 11: the cops surrounded me, the MTA cops, and then I realized,
2:41:45
Speaker 11: here's my point.
2:41:46
Speaker 2: They gave me the option.
2:41:47
Speaker 11: They were like, look, we're you know, we want to
2:41:48
Speaker 11: you know, we understand you what you do with Bob,
2:41:51
Speaker 11: but it's illegal, it's called little ring whatever. If you
2:41:54
Speaker 11: leave now, it's okay. And I was like, well, I
2:41:56
Speaker 11: really want to put one more up, and he goes, well,
2:41:59
Speaker 11: then we're going to have to arrest you. And I
2:42:01
Speaker 11: was like, now I'm gonna save this one and these
2:42:03
Speaker 11: guys were.
2:42:04
Speaker 6: So good to me.
2:42:05
Speaker 11: And I never dealt with the MTA cops before, and
2:42:08
Speaker 11: I've dealt with cops, as you know, I've been the
2:42:10
Speaker 11: rested a million times.
2:42:11
Speaker 2: But it was the system.
2:42:13
Speaker 11: Here's the point I want to make. I got my
2:42:14
Speaker 11: point across. People loved that. People hated it, but how
2:42:19
Speaker 11: they ran. It's always so safe in that I never
2:42:21
Speaker 11: realized how safe it is. There's no assholes running around screaming, protesting,
2:42:27
Speaker 11: robbing people that I see anytime i'm there.
2:42:29
Speaker 6: It's always a smooth transition.
2:42:31
Speaker 11: And I realized when I walked in and I put
2:42:34
Speaker 11: up my first sign, you know, I'm discreet. I look
2:42:36
Speaker 11: around the painting and I saw this one guy that
2:42:39
Speaker 11: was just like a regular businessman on his way to
2:42:42
Speaker 11: meet somebody for business. And at the end of my situation,
2:42:45
Speaker 11: as I'm being escorted out, I saw him again on
2:42:48
Speaker 11: the other side of the terminal and he winked at
2:42:50
Speaker 11: the cops and I said, uhha, very well played. And
2:42:54
Speaker 11: then outside he walked by again just to see what
2:42:57
Speaker 11: I was up to, and I just said.
2:43:00
Speaker 18: Look, I just said, well played.
2:43:01
Speaker 6: I'm not going to give it away.
2:43:02
Speaker 2: What do you looked like?
2:43:03
Speaker 11: But the point is it is a well oiled machine,
2:43:08
Speaker 11: and I think a lot more public places should be
2:43:11
Speaker 11: like that. How they run these undercover guys keeping an
2:43:14
Speaker 11: eye on things was like a spy movie. So it
2:43:17
Speaker 11: was beautiful. Kudos to them for letting me kind of
2:43:20
Speaker 11: get away what I did. But you know, not really
2:43:22
Speaker 11: but it was well played.
2:43:24
Speaker 6: It sounded like it was well played and sound like
2:43:26
Speaker 6: it was great. I know, you want to touch to
2:43:27
Speaker 6: one this animal that stopped this girl because you wouldn't
2:43:31
Speaker 6: give a phone.
2:43:33
Speaker 3: Number to him. I know the story.
2:43:34
Speaker 11: It's it's brutal, it's it's it's horrible, man. I mean,
2:43:38
Speaker 11: how look, we were all boys. We all get into fights.
2:43:41
Speaker 11: We all see boys fighting. It's part of you know, that's.
2:43:44
Speaker 3: Part of what we do.
2:43:44
Speaker 11: You know, you get no fight protecting a girl whatever.
2:43:47
Speaker 11: But to see this boy like you watch the video,
2:43:52
Speaker 11: it is the most it just got and it's very
2:43:55
Speaker 11: hard to get me squeamish. It really is very thick
2:43:58
Speaker 11: skinned of a New Yorker, you know, just like you.
2:44:01
Speaker 11: But to see him slam her like a wrestler onto
2:44:04
Speaker 11: the concrete and then to stomp on her face like
2:44:10
Speaker 11: a scene from Goodfellas when DeNiro stomps on it.
2:44:12
Speaker 4: You know he does that.
2:44:14
Speaker 6: It was just heartbreaking Billy batt And wasn't it Billy
2:44:18
Speaker 6: Batsy stopped on his face in the barn?
2:44:20
Speaker 11: Yes, yes, yes, and well anything that when he was
2:44:24
Speaker 11: a good.
2:44:24
Speaker 6: When wasn't a k That was Frank Vincent, who was
2:44:27
Speaker 6: a great active he's on the site. He actually played
2:44:29
Speaker 6: phill Ya Tarto on The Sopranos and his head got
2:44:32
Speaker 6: ran over in the gas station. But he was with
2:44:35
Speaker 6: the New York crime Family. That's right, guy, So you're right.
2:44:37
Speaker 6: So he was stopping on her face.
2:44:40
Speaker 11: And then he just like he has this smirk like
2:44:43
Speaker 11: he was proud of what he did. And why aren't
2:44:47
Speaker 11: you know, why are we still continuing with this victim
2:44:50
Speaker 11: of society. Oh he's a young kid, he's fourteen years old.
2:44:53
Speaker 11: His name can't be printed. But I'm really I really
2:44:56
Speaker 11: want to reach out. I don't know how far my
2:44:58
Speaker 11: voice goes on your s know, somebody from that little
2:45:02
Speaker 11: girl's family needs to find this efin animal and correct him,
2:45:08
Speaker 11: correct him. This is why society is breaking down, because
2:45:12
Speaker 11: we become some numb to this. We don't talk about
2:45:14
Speaker 11: that girl that got set on fire on the subway.
2:45:17
Speaker 11: You know, Ah, that just happened, this New York find
2:45:19
Speaker 11: illegal alien. You know, it's funny. They tried to hang
2:45:24
Speaker 11: literally hang him, put him in jail for life, Donald
2:45:28
Speaker 11: Trump because he said he said grabbed them by the.
2:45:33
Speaker 18: P He said that.
2:45:34
Speaker 11: But you sort of story the other day.
2:45:36
Speaker 18: I think you talked about it.
2:45:37
Speaker 11: This illegal alien who grabbed and groped a bunch of
2:45:42
Speaker 11: these young high school girls and grabbed them.
2:45:44
Speaker 6: By the p yep.
2:45:45
Speaker 11: And he's a victim of society. He's protected because of
2:45:48
Speaker 11: the sanctuary state city and he I think he's getting
2:45:51
Speaker 11: like one hundred days in jail. This is where is
2:45:54
Speaker 11: the proper punishment for the crimes? Where has this?
2:45:59
Speaker 18: How did this go off track? That? This is where
2:46:02
Speaker 18: society aspired.
2:46:03
Speaker 11: Whether it's Luigi Mangion, you know, well, he's maybe right
2:46:07
Speaker 11: for what he did. How how will we count? I
2:46:11
Speaker 11: can't can you figure it out?
2:46:13
Speaker 6: Oh no, he murdered an innocent father of two, and
2:46:16
Speaker 6: you're right. People love him. They call him a hero.
2:46:19
Speaker 6: They call Brian Thompson a terrorist, the guy that got murdered.
2:46:23
Speaker 6: I don't know how we got well, I know how
2:46:26
Speaker 6: we got here, but I can tell you this it's
2:46:29
Speaker 6: gonna get worse because the mayor is all for the criminals.
2:46:36
Speaker 6: He's not for the good guys. He doesn't like the cops,
2:46:38
Speaker 6: he doesn't like Lobato, doesn't like Rosenberg. He's all for
2:46:40
Speaker 6: the criminals. So as bad as it's gotten, and it's
2:46:43
Speaker 6: gotten progressively worse, we have not hit rock bottom yet.
2:46:47
Speaker 11: Now it's the fire needs to continue to burn.
2:46:50
Speaker 6: It really does.
2:46:51
Speaker 18: And again it's there.
2:46:53
Speaker 11: It's almost like you want, you want it to burn.
2:46:56
Speaker 4: Ye I do, I do?
2:46:57
Speaker 11: I do the quicker with burns, the quicker.
2:47:00
Speaker 6: That's right. We got to hit on the East. We
2:47:03
Speaker 6: got to hit rock bottom for this city has to
2:47:05
Speaker 6: go to absolute trash, which are just about there anyway,
