  SPEAKER_02: Were they good at their job?
• 2:59
  SPEAKER_02: Ooh, this one might be a little tough.
• 3:01
  SPEAKER_02: Because now, to be fair, Angie was never a cook.
• 3:07
  SPEAKER_02: She learned OJT on-the-job training.
• 3:11

  SPEAKER_02: We got past that, and she grew and knew what and what not to do.
• 3:29
  SPEAKER_02: Granted, that.
• 3:30
  SPEAKER_02: And she was a cook, she became a lead cook.
• 3:34
  SPEAKER_02: She got promoted, she got raises.
• 3:37
  SPEAKER_02: So those are all good things at the job.
• 3:39
  SPEAKER_02: Now, was she good at a lead cook?
• 3:42
  SPEAKER_02: Ooh, that's where that's where it becomes tricky, you know.
• 3:46
  SPEAKER_02: When she's in a new position, there has to be a learning curve for her.
• 3:49
  SPEAKER_02: I gave her a learning curve where, you know, hey, you know, you gotta do this, you gotta do that, you gotta do this if you wanna be a lead cook.
• 3:57
  SPEAKER_02: And she understood what I was saying.
• 4:00
  SPEAKER_02: But she got she failed to execute sometimes.
• 4:06
  SPEAKER_02: So was she good at her job?
• 4:08
  SPEAKER_02: She was good with people.
• 4:09
  SPEAKER_02: She was great with people, customers, and all that.
• 4:11
  SPEAKER_02: In fact, I had so many people come up to ask if Angie's at work today.
• 4:18
  SPEAKER_02: That's a good thing.
• 4:19
  SPEAKER_02: She was good with people, good with customers.
• 4:22
  SPEAKER_02: But when it came to her job, was she good at it?
• 4:31
  SPEAKER_02: I'm going to say, majority of the time now, was she good at her job?
• 4:39
  SPEAKER_02: I'm gonna say, yeah, she was good at her job.
• 4:43
  SPEAKER_02: Majority of the time.
• 4:45
  SPEAKER_02: Survey says, Yeah! Yeah, majority of the time she was good at job.
• 4:54
  SPEAKER_02: The thing is that Angie can cook, she also served, she also washed dishes.
• 5:01
  SPEAKER_02: So there was nothing I could not ask Angie to do as she would do.
• 5:06
  SPEAKER_02: Right?
• 5:07
  SPEAKER_02: So was she good at her job?
• 5:09
  SPEAKER_02: Yes.

  SPEAKER_02: She wouldn't text me.
• 5:44
  SPEAKER_02: She wouldn't say, hey Mike, where's the pie crust?
• 5:47
  SPEAKER_02: Did you order pie crust?
• 5:48
  SPEAKER_02: Anything like that?

  SPEAKER_02: Say, what's crust in the back?
• 5:57
  SPEAKER_02: All you do is text and ask me.

  SPEAKER_02: Like, ooh, Angie.
• 6:04
  SPEAKER_02: Quit using it.

  SPEAKER_02: I said, okay.
• 6:25
  SPEAKER_02: Okay.
• 6:26
  SPEAKER_02: That's that's twice you don't use that on me.
• 6:29
  SPEAKER_02: Uh burning things.
• 6:31
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, we've we we burnt a lot of things.
• 6:34
  SPEAKER_02: A lot of bacon was burnt in the process of her being a late cook.
• 6:38
  SPEAKER_02: It happens though.
• 6:39
  SPEAKER_02: It happens.
• 6:41
  SPEAKER_02: We burn things, we don't make things adequate enough.

  SPEAKER_02: But oh, here's another one.
• 6:48
  SPEAKER_02: Taste tester.
• 6:53
  SPEAKER_02: She made this teriyaki sauce.
• 6:55
  SPEAKER_02: It was saltier than the Red Sea.
• 6:57
  SPEAKER_02: It's like, ooh, child, I cannot.
• 7:01
  SPEAKER_02: And it's like, I said, did you try it?
• 7:03
  SPEAKER_02: She said, no, Michael.
• 7:04
  SPEAKER_02: I said, why not?
• 7:05
  SPEAKER_02: Because I don't like teriyaki sauce.
• 7:07
  SPEAKER_02: Well, if all this salt, I don't like it either.
• 7:10
  SPEAKER_02: We gotta fix this.
• 7:11
  SPEAKER_02: This part of your you you adapting to be a cook.
• 7:14
  SPEAKER_02: You gotta taste these things.
• 7:16
  SPEAKER_02: So, all these significant moments.
• 7:19
  SPEAKER_02: Was she still a good employee after all these significant moments?
• 7:24
  SPEAKER_02: Now this one, this one's easy.
• 7:25
  SPEAKER_02: This one, the these significant moments eventually cost her some of the things.
• 7:32
  SPEAKER_02: So I'm gonna say these significant moments, like this is yeah, the significant moments costed her.
• 7:38
  SPEAKER_02: Was she a good employee because of these significant moments?
• 7:40
  SPEAKER_02: I'm gonna say no, she wasn't.
• 7:42
  SPEAKER_02: Survey says.
• 7:45
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, these significant moments are moments that as a lead that I expected her to step up with.
• 7:51
  SPEAKER_02: You know, you find how to fix the sauce, find, you know, the is what it is, you know, burning of things, that happens.
• 7:58
  SPEAKER_02: I'm not I'm not taking that away from her.
• 8:00
  SPEAKER_02: That happens, right?
• 8:02
  SPEAKER_02: Last question: how does she go?
• 8:04
  SPEAKER_02: Like, how does she basically go?
• 8:06
  SPEAKER_02: Was her last couple weeks, slash month, was it good?
• 8:13
  SPEAKER_02: No, it wasn't good.
• 8:14
  SPEAKER_02: It wasn't good based on the the three plus years I've I've known Angie, right?
• 8:21
  SPEAKER_02: Okay, so example, she when we talked about her lead position, we're like, hey, you know, you're kind of struggling with this, you know, what are we gonna do?
• 8:29
  SPEAKER_02: You know, how are we gonna fix this?
• 8:31
  SPEAKER_02: She's like, well, I just need to go back to my old spot.
• 8:34
  SPEAKER_02: I was like, okay, that's fine.
• 8:37
  SPEAKER_02: But do you realize you're gonna lose money?
• 8:40
  SPEAKER_02: She's like, I'm cool with that.
• 8:41
  SPEAKER_02: So you cool with that?
• 8:43
  SPEAKER_02: She says, I'm cool with that, sir.
• 8:45
  SPEAKER_02: Okay, you're cool with that.
• 8:46
  SPEAKER_02: Okay, so all right, so you realize if you go back to your old spot, you might be doing more work.
• 8:55
  SPEAKER_02: Are you cool with that?
• 8:56
  SPEAKER_02: She's like, Yeah, you know what?
• 8:57
  SPEAKER_02: I am so comfortable over there with those people and doing things over there.
• 9:01
  SPEAKER_02: I am cool with that.
• 9:02
  SPEAKER_02: So you are cool with that?
• 9:03
  SPEAKER_02: She said, Yes, yes, I am cool with that.
• 9:08
  SPEAKER_02: So you are.
• 9:09
  SPEAKER_02: Okay, okay.
• 9:11
  SPEAKER_02: So when she gets over there, the first thing she complains about is like, I can't believe I'm lost this much money.
• 9:19
  SPEAKER_02: I said, Angie, remember I told you this before going over there that you know you might not want to go over there because you're gonna lose money.
• 9:29
  SPEAKER_02: But you said you were comfortable with it.
• 9:31
  SPEAKER_02: But yeah, but I can't believe I'm doing all this extra work and I'm not getting paid for it.
• 9:36
  SPEAKER_02: And I said, Hey hey hey, you remember this is what you asked for.
• 9:42
  SPEAKER_02: Remember, I tried to avoid you doing this.
• 9:44
  SPEAKER_02: So you come over here and be a lead, you go over there, you're gonna be doing more work.
• 9:50
  SPEAKER_02: And you said you were comfortable with it.
• 9:51
  SPEAKER_02: She's like, I understand, Mike, but I can't believe I'm a cook.
• 9:56
  SPEAKER_02: I should just be a server.
• 9:57
  SPEAKER_02: He said, Whoa, you understand that's gonna be another pay cut?
• 10:01
  SPEAKER_02: We we we can't do that.
• 10:03
  SPEAKER_02: We you don't want to do that because we're already struggling with this.
• 10:06
  SPEAKER_02: And then eventually, she parted ways with the company.
• 10:11
  SPEAKER_02: So overall, overall, was she a good employee?
• 10:17
  SPEAKER_02: Would I take Angie with me to another location?
• 10:24
  SPEAKER_02: I would question mark.
• 10:27
  SPEAKER_02: Listen, sometimes you have to sacrifice, bite the bullet to have good people around you.
• 10:35
  SPEAKER_02: Now, would I have her as a cook?
• 10:37
  SPEAKER_02: Probably not.
• 10:40
  SPEAKER_02: A server?
• 10:41
  SPEAKER_02: Absolutely.
• 10:42
  SPEAKER_02: I think she'd be a great server.
• 10:44
  SPEAKER_02: She is good with people, like I said.
• 10:47
  SPEAKER_02: But I wouldn't have her as a cook.
• 10:49
  SPEAKER_02: Not at all.
• 10:50
  SPEAKER_02: But overall, Angie, you were a good, you're a good person.
• 10:53
  SPEAKER_02: Uh, you're great with people.
• 10:55
  SPEAKER_02: You know, things happen.
• 10:57
  SPEAKER_02: We wish you nothing but the best.
• 11:00
  SPEAKER_02: That being said, thank you for your time and service.
• 11:03
  SPEAKER_02: I do appreciate everything you've done.
• 11:04
  SPEAKER_02: I'm pretty sure the company appreciates everything you've done.
• 11:06
  SPEAKER_02: So uh here's to you.
• 11:08
  SPEAKER_02: Thank you so much.
• 11:15
  SPEAKER_02: Now we'll get to the main chunk of the story today.
• 11:18
  SPEAKER_02: Today's story is the indictment of 45.
• 11:22
  SPEAKER_02: Now, you may be like, well, what's going on?
• 11:24
  SPEAKER_02: Because some of us may not be paying attention to this and figuring out how, you know, 45 plans to be 47 because he's running for president again.
• 11:36
  SPEAKER_02: Unbeknownst to me, then you know, I do my research and I find out that.
• 11:40
  SPEAKER_06: In order to make America great and glorious again, I am tonight announcing my candidacy for president of the United States.
• 11:53
  SPEAKER_03: Outside, here's why he thinks he is the future.
• 11:58
  SPEAKER_03: The foot soldiers of the Trumpism movement.
• 12:03
  SPEAKER_03: Only the most loyal here, of course.
• 12:06
  SPEAKER_03: But this does stretch across the country and it cuts into society.
• 12:10
  SPEAKER_03: So many times the Republican Party establishment has tried to cut Trump loose after the January the 6th insurrection, and many Trumpian moments in between.
• 12:20
  SPEAKER_03: They try and they try, but they just can't let him go.
• 12:24
  SPEAKER_03: Because they know that this remains the reality-denying force behind the party.
• 12:29
  SPEAKER_00: He deserves another shot.
• 12:30
  SPEAKER_00: The for the second election was rigged from him.
• 12:34
  SPEAKER_00: Um you really believe that?
• 12:36
  SPEAKER_00: Of course I believe it.
• 12:37
  SPEAKER_00: Have you seen all of the fraud out of Arizona?
• 12:39
  SPEAKER_00: Look what happened right now.
• 12:40
  SPEAKER_00: Man, this is tremendous.
• 12:41
  SPEAKER_04: Maybe we can correct all the things that that Joe Biden's done wrong now.
• 12:46
  SPEAKER_04: We had to do it once, now we're gonna get to do it again.
• 12:50
  SPEAKER_03: Their loyalty can't simply be switched off or directed elsewhere.
• 12:54
  SPEAKER_03: For as long as they stand by the man in the palace behind them, he'll continue to be a force.
• 12:59
  SPEAKER_03: Mark Stone Sky News at Mar-a-Lago in Florida.
• 13:03
  SPEAKER_02: So you guys remember back in 2016, or if you don't, that the whole thing that he was going for was for locking deplorable Hillary Clinton up.
• 13:16
  SPEAKER_07: They're not deplorable.
• 13:33
  SPEAKER_07: Who would have thought that a word was gonna play so badly?
• 13:37
  SPEAKER_07: That's the problem in politics.
• 13:39
  SPEAKER_07: One wrong word, and it's over.
• 13:42
  SPEAKER_02: And you know, that was the main storyline.
• 13:45
  SPEAKER_02: Even uh retired General Michael.
• 14:06
  SPEAKER_05: That's right.
• 14:08
  SPEAKER_05: Yes, that's right, locker up.
• 14:15
  SPEAKER_05: It's unbelievable.
• 14:17
  SPEAKER_05: Unbelievable.
• 14:19
  SPEAKER_02: So that was the motto going back to from twenty sixteen when he was running for president the first time.
• 14:26
  SPEAKER_01: Now some of us are out here like lock his ass up, lock his ass up, you're going to jail.
• 14:34
  SPEAKER_01: You're going to jail.
• 14:36
  SPEAKER_02: So let's break it down as far as what he did, what the possible crime is.
• 14:44
  SPEAKER_02: So being straightforward, uh, Trump's former lawyer, Michael Cohen, paid Stormy Daniels, who happens to be a uh um uh an adult film actress, uh$130,000 days before the 2016 election.
• 15:04
  SPEAKER_02: Based on Cohen, uh this was done at the direct direction of his boss, which was the 45th president, because the actress was on the cups of going public about their affair that she had back in 2006.
• 15:21
  SPEAKER_02: All these charges are brought up by a district attorney Manhattan's district attorney, Alvin Bragg, which happens to be a Democrat.
• 15:28
  SPEAKER_02: So let's see, while he was in office, uh he reimbursed Cohen, but has consistently denied the whole thing happening.
• 15:37
  SPEAKER_02: But the payment of hush money itself wouldn't be the crime.
• 15:40
  SPEAKER_02: In this case, the possible crime is how the payments were documented on the books of the Trump organization.
• 15:46
  SPEAKER_02: So that's where this white collar crime happens.
• 15:50
  SPEAKER_02: Going forward, uh Cohen submitted phony uh phony invoices through 2017 referencing a retainer agreement and requesting payment.
• 16:01
  SPEAKER_02: Then Cohen received a stack of checks hand signed by the 45th president while he was in office.
• 16:07
  SPEAKER_02: The legal problem is there is no retainer agreement and it was all done to cover up the hush money scheme.
• 16:14
  SPEAKER_02: The document the fake documentation of legal legal expenses on the organization's books can trigger a charge under New York state law.
• 16:23
  SPEAKER_02: Falsifying business records is a crime.
• 16:27
  SPEAKER_02: Normally, the false business records charge would be a misdemeanor in order to elevate it to a felony.
• 16:33
  SPEAKER_02: The defendant needs to have created the fake records with the intent to commit or conceal another crime.
• 16:40
  SPEAKER_02: So if the grand jury doesn't vote in favor of prosecuting this crime as a felony, it would direct it would it could direct the prosecutor to file a misdemeanor in this case.
• 16:49
  SPEAKER_02: So you can see where some people are upset if you are Republican.
• 16:55
  SPEAKER_02: You can see why these c these um charges can be say that it was false or say that you know that these are misdemeanor type crimes don't need to be brought up.
• 17:06
  SPEAKER_02: So don't need to be brought up.
• 17:07
  SPEAKER_02: So moving on.
• 17:09
  SPEAKER_02: Uh what would be Trump's legal defense in court?
• 17:12
  SPEAKER_02: Uh Trump has has cast the investigation as a political motivation because Bragg's a Democrat.
• 17:19
  SPEAKER_02: But the argument made by his lawyers in court is likely to be different than that can hinge on Trump's intent at the time the payments were made.
• 17:26
  SPEAKER_02: He suggested on Monday that even if a crime has been committed, the statute of limitations will be up now because this happened back in 2006 and it's 2023.
• 17:36
  SPEAKER_02: But that's unlikely to be the major sticking point.
• 17:38
  SPEAKER_02: The statute of limitation on a felony charge related to false business records normally requires an indictment to happen within five years, but statute of limitation is toll, meaning pause when the defendant is not continuously in New York.
• 17:52
  SPEAKER_02: And you all know where he likes to stay.
• 17:57
  SPEAKER_02: So the question is ask Is prison time a possibility if Trump is indicted and convicted?
• 18:05
  SPEAKER_02: Of course, yes.
• 18:06
  SPEAKER_02: The charge of falsifying business records is the first degree, a low-level felony carrying up to four years in prison.
• 18:12
  SPEAKER_02: But what's the all likelihood that he will face any prison time, let alone if this even goes that further?
• 18:19
  SPEAKER_02: If it goes that far.
• 18:20
  SPEAKER_02: Um, so why is this happening now?
• 18:22
  SPEAKER_02: It's all Alvin Briggs.
• 18:23
  SPEAKER_02: Alvin Briggs' office is an elected position.
• 18:26
  SPEAKER_02: Some argue moving forward with the with the prosecution can help his re-election efforts, while others suggest that if in fact Trump broke the law, Bragg has a duty to bring the case and assure public no one is above the law.
• 18:37
  SPEAKER_02: But we all know that's not true.
• 18:39
  SPEAKER_02: Because if this was me committing this crime or you committing this crime, we'd already be in jail.
• 18:44
  SPEAKER_02: If he is indicted, what happens next?
• 18:47
  SPEAKER_02: Uh the prosecutor officer would instruct the grand jury on all the charges and the law, and the jurors would vote.
• 18:53
  SPEAKER_02: The grand jury is usually made up of 23 people, and at least 16 who have heard the evidence need to be present to vote.
• 18:59
  SPEAKER_02: But the decision does not have to be unanimous.
• 19:02
  SPEAKER_02: If twelve members of the jury vote to indict, the prosecution would draft up the indictment, and the jury forego the four-person would sign it.
• 19:10
  SPEAKER_02: The indictment gets filed under seal with the court, so initially the public will not see it.
• 19:15
  SPEAKER_02: Once the indictment is filed, the prosecutor team will simply reach out to the defense attorney, according to time for the defendant to voluntarily surrender.
• 19:23
  SPEAKER_02: That's a white white collar crime.
• 19:25
  SPEAKER_02: Hey man, hey, you committed this crime, we would like you to report to jail.
• 19:29
  SPEAKER_02: Uh, don't pass go, don't collect your$200.
• 19:32
  SPEAKER_02: Just come on to jail.
• 19:32
  SPEAKER_02: You'd be like, wait a minute, you can't have me looking bad in front of my community.
• 19:36
  SPEAKER_02: I'll be there by eight or nine o'clock.
• 19:39
  SPEAKER_02: That's funny about white collar crimes, isn't it?
• 19:42
  SPEAKER_02: If the case proceeds to be as other high cases at this point, Trump has to turn himself in, he could be prosecuted at the same place within the district attorney's office, according to sources similar to the office.
• 19:53
  SPEAKER_02: That would normally include paperwork, fingerprinting, mugshot, a cross-check of any outstanding other crimes, which all would happen behind closed doors sometime.
• 20:04
  SPEAKER_02: Soon the other he would be arraigned on other charges in front of a judge, and that would be public.
• 20:11
  SPEAKER_02: At this point, Trump and his attorney are would enter a plea under the court date, and he would now have to pose bail given the nature of these crimes.
• 20:20
  SPEAKER_02: So you may be asking yourself, like, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
• 20:23
  SPEAKER_02: If he was indicted and said he would be arrested on Tuesday, then why didn't he get arrested?
• 20:28
  SPEAKER_02: From what I was from what I looked up, this never came from the the Manhattan DA himself.
• 20:34
  SPEAKER_02: He must have sent appealers out and then 45 got a hold of him and told the people that he will get arrested.
• 20:42
  SPEAKER_02: Now remind you that Trump represents roughly 74 million voters.
• 20:50
  SPEAKER_02: And what happens with that?
• 20:53
  SPEAKER_02: People donate money.
• 20:55
  SPEAKER_02: People donated so much money to him that now, like, he's making so much money for his 2024 to run for president.
• 21:04
  SPEAKER_02: His campaign sent scores of emails and communication to his supporters over the weekend, seeking to rile them up about the arrest and prompt a donation.
• 21:17
  SPEAKER_02: In some emails, he described the effort to charge him with crimes for allegedly hush money payments to the adult actress Stormy Daniels and also refers to this as a political witch hunt, which we've heard millions and millions of times.
• 21:31
  SPEAKER_02: Number 45 characterizes the 2024 election as apocalyptic or pros as voters.
• 21:37
  SPEAKER_02: A last chance to save the country.
• 21:40
  SPEAKER_02: He encourages supporters to actively protest his impending arrest, drawing comparisons to his role in the January 6, 2021 riots that happened on the U.S.
• 21:49
  SPEAKER_02: Capitol.
• 21:50
  SPEAKER_02: If this all happens, he will be at the DA's office, rest of the book, fingerprinted, mugshot, and have a DNA swab.
• 21:57
  SPEAKER_02: So, how does this all work for a former president that has a secret service with him?
• 22:02
  SPEAKER_02: This is this is by far the craziest thing that's happened because no president has ever gone through this before.
• 22:07
  SPEAKER_02: And it begs a question like why or how does he reach 74 million people?
• 22:14
  SPEAKER_02: He has his own social media, truth social.
• 22:17
  SPEAKER_02: I don't I don't understand how he has this grip on the Republican Party in over half America.
• 22:24
  SPEAKER_02: So what what is the uh Republicans in the House are saying?
• 22:30
  SPEAKER_02: They want to investigate Bragg, the district attorney from Manhattan, over these over these in uh allegations, right?
• 22:38
  SPEAKER_02: You got Jim Jordan, James Comer, Brian Steele, fired off letters to Bragg accusing him of actions that will erode confidence in the even-handed application of justice and unalterable inter interfere in the course of the 2024 election.
• 22:55
  SPEAKER_02: If Trump Trump is indicted.
• 23:02
  SPEAKER_02: They also want they also want documents and records including any related federal funding or communication with the Justice Department and other federal law enforcement agencies.
• 23:10
  SPEAKER_02: They're gonna get in that.
• 23:12
  SPEAKER_02: No, they're not.
• 23:12
  SPEAKER_02: These requests are now voluntary, and the letter does not include a mention of the compulsory process if Bragg doesn't comply.
• 23:19
  SPEAKER_02: In other words, no subpoenas.
• 23:21
  SPEAKER_02: And this comes from Jordan Carney of the Politico.
• 23:24
  SPEAKER_02: So what is your take?
• 23:25
  SPEAKER_02: What is your take on all this?
• 23:27
  SPEAKER_02: This is this is such a wild time politically for years that all this has been going on.
• 23:34
  SPEAKER_02: And to have a a former president indicted is history making and weird that somebody is beloved so much by America, by half of America, that even the indictment, even the January 6th uh committee pointing out things that he's done to America, yet he's uh throwing his hat in for the 2024 presidential election.
• 23:57
  SPEAKER_02: So I just wanted to bring that information to you because that's something else, man.
• 24:02
  SPEAKER_02: I'm just saying, someone who could be indicted for crimes is running for president.
• 24:06
  SPEAKER_02: Kind of asked backwards to me, but that's the show.
• 24:08
  SPEAKER_02: Just to inform you guys what's going on.
• 24:17
  SPEAKER_02: I'll be damned if he wins.
• 24:20
  SPEAKER_02: Wouldn't that be something?
• 24:23
  SPEAKER_02: Someone indicted, win president, presidency in 2024.
• 24:29
  SPEAKER_02: Who knows?
• 24:30
  SPEAKER_02: I'm your host, Mike Grossi of the WDYM, and I'm out, Boy Scout, Girl Scout.
• 24:37
  SPEAKER_02: Peace.
