  Speaker 1: You're listening to. Well, hey, we'll get to the governor's race.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: We'll get to mom, Donnie. And the shutdown looks like
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: it's ending. It's coming to an end. The first big
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: vote last night. They'll have it wrapped up, probably by Wednesday.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Schumer getting a lot of flak from Democrats. The leading
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Democrat right now probably Gavin Newsom. He's the leader of
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: the twenty twenty eight bunch, and he tweets out just
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: one word pathetic. Pathetic. So they'll be coming after Schumer,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: which is good. He deserves it. And it's gonna get settled.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: And then like every other shutdown we've had, how many
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: of you have been through, You've been through fourteen of them.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: You know, we'll just forget about it. Everything, we'll get
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: back to normal. It's just good for the Democrats have
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: a playbook. They all get their assignment. If you're watching
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: the Sunday shows yesterday, you may have to notice that
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: they're not only saying the same thing, they're using these
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: same exact phrases. It's all coordinated. They do a conference
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: call and it comes from K Street in Washington, DC.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: All the Democrats are given their assignment what to say,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: on the shows the phrases to use one of them,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: which you saw every Democrat use on the Sunday shows.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Somewhere in the middle area said, if Donald Trump didn't
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: spend all his time on the golf course. You saw
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: that like a fourteen times on those Sunday shows. You
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: heard Adam Shift sit, you heard Hakim Jeffrey said, every
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: Democrat used that phrase. Well, he didn't spend all his
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: time on the golf course. Now, obviously coordinated, but also
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: what does it mean does he spend all his time
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: on the golf course. No, obviously not. You know, he
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: plays golf on Saturday and Sunday, and I've played golf
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: with him a lot of times. He plays fast. It's
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: not four hours, it's two hours. Maybe it's quick. He
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: plays quick. So you're entitled on Saturday and Sunday to
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: take the day off. You know, Obama liked to play basketball.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: He didn't like golf. He liked to play basketball. He
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: even had a basketball court, put it in the White
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: House so we could play basketball, and Saturday and Sunday
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: he would go on that basketball court and play basketball.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: I never heard anybody say, well, he didn't spend all
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: this time playing basketball. Every president does something on the weekends.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Every president has a hobby of some kind. Nixon liked
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: to read Saturday and Sunday, sit around and read. They
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: didn't say, well, he didn't spend all his time reading.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: You're entitled on Saturday and Sunday to take a couple
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: of hours on Saturday and Sunday to do whatever your
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: hobby is so a crazy talking point they were using.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi is leaving. That's the good news. The fascinating
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: part is her amazing career in the stock market. She
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: is up over the last few years. Warren Buffett, I
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: think it's up like four hundred percent or something. Is
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: port her portfolio. This is not a joke. Her portfolio
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: is up seventeen thousand percent. Seventeen thousand percent. That's the
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: greatest ever trading record in the history of the stock exchange.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Nobody has ever been up like that, No hedge fund,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: no anybody. Now, obviously she did it with insider trading.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: When you are in Congress, you get access to all
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: kinds of information before anybody else. You know what company's
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: going to get a ruling against them, what company's going
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: to get a ruling for them, and you can trade
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: based on that. It's legal. I don't know how this
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: ever happened, but it's legal for people in Congress to
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: engage in insider trading. It's got to be outlawed. But
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: the only people can outlawd the congressmen themselves. So Pelosi
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: was the king, the queen of insider trading. Her portfolio
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: is up seventeen thousand percent. She's made hundreds of millions
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: of dollars. In Congress, she was asked about it.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: Oh, first, your career, has her husband ever maybe stock
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: purchase of SALB some information you received from you?
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: No, absolutely not no, No, you're up seventeen thousand percent.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: Did you use your insider notes? Well no, no, no,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: just sheare brilliance on her part, but it's done all
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: the time, not on a smaller scale. You got this
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: new Jersey governor elect, Mikey Cheryl, who's brand new, just started.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: But in her brief little time in Congress, she somehow
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: made seven million trading stock, just like that seven million,
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: And our friend down the hall there, Charlemagne, asked her,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: but did you make seven million trading stocks?
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: There is no individual stock trading. It's not as if
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: I go sit on the House Arm Service Committee and
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: suddenly I'm trading Boeing or something. There's none of that.
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: I'm totally out of individual stocks. And I, like I said,
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: I think every member of Congress should be well, did you.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: Make seven million in stock trees at all?
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: Well?
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: I haven't.
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: I don't believe I did, but I'd have to go
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: see what that was alluding to it.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Now, you know how much money you got to have
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: to not notice if you've made seven million to not
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: notice seven million showing up in your bank account or
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: your your stock account. If you didn't notice seven million,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: you got to be worth hundreds of millions not to
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: notice seven million. I mean, if you're Elon Musk and
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: an extra seven million showed up in your stock portfolio,
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: you might not note. Who's going to notice you got
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: five hundred billion? Who's gonna know a seven million? But
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: she didn't notice the seven million anyway?
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: Hey.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the good news is there's some indictments coming. The
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: Grand Jury approved subpoenas for John Brennan, the dirty former
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: CIA director. But it looks like they're going after Strack
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: and Page all the people that did that disgusting Russia
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: witch hunt hoax. One by one, they'll be going after
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: all of them. So that's that's good news. Expect that
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: pretty soon. So the race for governor, you got Hocel
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: in trouble. Obviously, people can't stand Hokel and she's embracing
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: Mam Donnie. You know, they had that big Democrat conference
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: in Puerto Rico. They called the somos, whatever that stands for,
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: but it's basically they say it's to relax in a conference.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: It's a conference when they're all to talk to each other.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: But as Curtis would say, it's whining, dining, and pocket
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: lining kind of a deal. And they had to do
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: a couple of joint appearances and Hokel was all over
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Mam Donnie, introducing them, praising them, holding hands with him.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: So you'll see Stephanic, at least Stephonic running against Nancy
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: Hochel Kathy Hochel for governor. This could be an interesting race.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: This is a toxic governor who has a record of
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: delivering the highest taxes in the nation, of hurting hard
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: working New Yorkers, of turning her back on law enforcement
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: officers and small businesses. New York is in catastrophe because
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: of Kathy Hochel's lead nastaphonic.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: She's Ferosias going after Hokel and she's going to time
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: the Mom Donnie, this was not.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: A mandate, even though Mom Domi is claiming such. He
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: barely got over fifty percent, So that is really a
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: historically low performance for someone who won the Democrat primary.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: That means nearly half of New York City voters, which
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: is traditionally a Democrat city, voted against Mom Dommi because
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: they know he is so radical, he's out of touch
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: with hard working families, with small businesses who are already
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: crushed by the highest taxes in the nation.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, she's right, Mom Donnie. He did get a majority
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: fifty point four percent, but remember he was up against
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: the biggest loser in the world, Andrew Cuomo. Curtis is
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: a good candidate, but remember everybody on earth, every major figure,
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: was telling you not to vote for Curtis, so nobody
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: could have I mean, there's nobody in the history of
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: an election they ever had to shoot greased for them
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: more than Cuomo. I mean, the runway was cleared for
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: him and he still couldn't pull it off. So that's
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: how Mam Donnie won. Stephanic will be a big, big,
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: tough challenger to Hochell.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: She's an accidental governor. She's only in this position because
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: she was Cuomo's lieutenant governor and when New Yorkers were
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: looking for strong leadership from a governor. Not to bend
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: the knee to Zorn Mamdami, Kathy Hochel, Benthany, Why did
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: she do that? Because she is hemorrhaging support even in
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: her own party among Democrats.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, now she's going to have a lot of people
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: going after But who's going to go after her? Aoc Well,
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: a lot of people don't take her seriously. Schumer is
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: an old, dried up fossil Hakeem Jefferies. He talks like
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: a robut he talks as he's such a robotic guy.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: He's already going after Stephanic.
• 8:39
  Speaker 5: You know, at least Stephonic is nothing more than a
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: handmaiden for Donald Trump's extreme policy. She's a sickophant who
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: has been a repeated rubber stamp for Donald Trump's extreme agenda.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: Yes, he's he's one of those guys on the conference call.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: He repeats whatever he's told to. If the President didn't
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: spend all his time on a golf course. Blah blah blah.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: And she's supposed to use the word extreme. President Trump's
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: extreme agenda with his extreme policies is extreme. Maga extreme magit.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: What is so extreme? What extreme policies? What's the most
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: extreme thing? What ice simply enforcing the law? Following the law?
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: That's extreme? Since when there'll be ads against Hochel.
• 9:20
  Speaker 6: Now Elise Stephonic is running for governor of New York.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: To do what he's This is a this is a
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: hocal ad. This is hokal's actually used against Tephonic.
• 9:29
  Speaker 6: Now Elise Stevonic is running for governor of New York
• 9:32
  Speaker 6: to do what she's always done. Put Trump first.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: She is phenomenal, She is a friend of.
• 9:38
  Speaker 6: Mine, phenomenal at putting Trump ahead of you.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, she knows Trump. That's going to be
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: their whole campaign. So here's the problem for Republicans. You're
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: going to have possibly a big primary because Bruce Blakeman,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: the brilliant county executive, best county executive in America Nassau County.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: I hear he wants to run. So if he runs
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: against Stephonic, that is one tough choice. Stephonic everybody loves
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: she's a pit bull. She's great, But it's Blakeman who's
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: the actual executive, who has actual management experience running a county,
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: which is like being the governor of Nassau County. So
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: he's the guy with more experience. He's the best county executive.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: He'd be a great governor. That's a tough choice. That's
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: a very very tough primary. Now a Stephanic would probably
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: do better upstate because she's got that kind of an
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: upstate kind of a sound, and she talks kind of fashions.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: She's very upstate. Bruce Blakeman is more of a sophisticated
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: city slicker type of guy. But half the votes for
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: governor are right here in New York City. You got
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: to do really well in New York City. I would
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: imagine Blakeman does much better in New York City than Stefanic.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: He'd have to go upstate in campaign, but got a
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: hell of a hell of a resume. But this is
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: a really tough one for Republicans, a really tough primary
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: coming up next year. Hey, Rocket Roll Hall of Fame,
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: you know it gets tough. They've cleaned it up. It's
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: a much better Rock and Roll Hall of Fame now
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: than it was a few years ago. But it's tough
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: with you like in the year, you know, the first
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: year rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Elvis Beatles. You know,
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: you put everybody in, but when you get the year
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: forty five, you know, you're starting to run out of people.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: So it was it was a bad company. I mean
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: they were okay, bad company, but rock and Roll Hall
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: of Fame. But then you got to perform the hits
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: of bad company. It's okay. I mean they're not the Beatles,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: the bad Company, They're not the Rolling Stones. You know,
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: year thirty seven you run out of pa Hey, we
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: love Cyndi Lauper. Who could not like Cyndi Lauper. She
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: got in.
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: I know that I stand on the shoulders of the
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: women in the industry that came before me, and my
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: shoulders are broad enough to have the women that come
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: after me stand online. And and yeah, it's that I
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: thought was really important, which is why I really came
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: here tonight, is to tell you that the little kid
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: and me still believes that rock and roll can save
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: the world. So I just want to say, now, of
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: all times, let's come together again and do good in
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: the world because he needs us.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll get right on that, but we love her.
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Then they got a lot of great performances on the
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: show Toll Be, you know, tightened up, edited down be,
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: a great TV special. Elton John performed, Elton John did
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: the Beach Boys hit. Elton John still sounds good. He
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: lost a lot of rains in his voice, but still
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: sounds good. David Letterman there, Santa Claus himself. Warren Zevon
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: gave Letteriman his guitar. I guess he knew he was
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: didn't have much longer to go and told Letterman to
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: take care of it. He brought it to the ceremony.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: It was used and one of the suns, Well, here's
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: let him in on that show.
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: And then the thing about enjoy every sandwich. You know
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: that that's easy, but it's deeply meaningful.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: And there's not a person in this room who hasn't
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: considered that.
• 13:12
  Speaker 6: But nobody can hang on to that on a daily basis.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: But by God, isn't that true of life around the planet.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know what he's talking about, but it
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: sounds good. But the beard, the beard, I don't know.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: He said he has that Beard because he doesn't want
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: you to ever confuse him with the old David Letterman.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: He's like a new, different guy. All right, Hey, Mom
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: Donnie is putting together his team. The five or six
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: names we've seen already are all ex de Blasio administration.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: One is from the Adams administration. So it's gonna be bad.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: But again, if it's all these Deblasio people picking de
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: Blasio administration people, we got through eight years at the Blasia.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: We'll get through this. Now here's the interesting part. Brad Lander,
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: who's a really awful, awful guy. You saw him in
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: the primaries, really kooky, left wing, disgusting. He's Jewish, but
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: he embraced every anti Semitic, stupid, anti Israel thing in
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: the world. So people really just came to really dislike
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: brad Lander. But he was a big help to Mom
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: Donnie in the primary. But they've made it clear no
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: brad Lander in the administration. He's out. They have kicked
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: him to the curb. So there's one good thing Mom
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: Donnie has done. Why would he do that? Is he
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: just so? Does he not have any gratitude? Is he
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: not loyal? Well, people said that behind the scenes brad
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: Lander who's an obnoxious guy, really obnoxious guy, they say.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: Behind the scenes. He was running around telling everybody he'll
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: be running city hall. He'll be running things in a
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: Mam Donnie. Well it got back to Mam Donnie. Brad
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: Lander is out, so that's good. Hey, we'll take some
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: calls in a minute. Eight hundred three to two one
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: zero seven ten is the number. Eight hundred three two
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: one zero seven ten
