• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Now on the Voice of New York.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: It's the Mark sim Own Show on seven tenor well.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Shutdown is over. We'll get to that. We'll get to
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: the BBC. They're in big trouble reputation wise. We'll get
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: to Mom Donnie exactly who is he putting in City
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Hall and what does it mean. We'll get to Tiss James.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: We'll get to MSNBC. It's in its final week right now.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Friday's the final day of MSNBC. We'll get to Jimmy
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: Kimmel and his a nutty wife, and a whole lot more.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: The shutdown is over, as is the career of Chuck Schumer.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: It comes to an end with this. He'll never recover
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: from this disaster. The Senate voted to end things. They
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: decided to do it with the same exact deal they
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: could have had forty five days ago. Nothing changed, absolutely nothing.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: A lot of people think they wanted that shutdown on
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: during the election, thinking it would in some way help
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: him in the election. But it's over, it's done, and
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: the House will vote on it. They won't be able
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: to do it today, probably tomorrow, the House will vote
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: on it and then the government reopens. As far as
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: the air traffic controllers, it'll take till the weekend to
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: get them back. That'll be a slower process. So by
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: there's still canceling flights today and tomorrow and probably Thursday
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: as well, but by Friday or Saturday it should be fixed.
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: Hey.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: President Trump said that, you know, a lot of the
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: air traffic controllers decided if they weren't getting paid, they're
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: not coming to work. And a lot of them decided
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: to come to work even without getting paid. And President
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Trump said he's going to try to arrange a ten
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: thousand dollars bonus for every controller that worked through the shutdown,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: which is which is a great idea. So it's over.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: The shutdown ended. It's now the longest one in history.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: The longest before had been twenty eighteen thirty five days.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: That was during Donald Trump's presidency. They get shut down
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: crazy when Trump is an office. So this was the
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: longest one ever went past the thirty five days. It's
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: over nothing. They didn't get anything as a result of
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: the shutdown, but that's always the case. There's never been
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: a case where any party ever achieved anything with a shutdown.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: The shutdown Caucus is zero for fourteen they've never gotten
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: anything out of it. It's a good thing that's over
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: finally and everything gets back to normally. He's the president based.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: On everything I'm hearing. They haven't changed anything, and we
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: have support from enough Democrats, and we're going to be
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: opening up our country so bad it was closed, but
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: we'll be opening up our country very quickly. The deal
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: is very good. We're not going to be giving one
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: and a half trillion dollars to people that came in
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: from jails and from you know, the gangs and drug
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: dealers and all of these others that they wanted to
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: be given healthcare, which would have hurt our healthcare system.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was part of the ridiculous fight on the
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Democrats health care for illegals. Now, the other problem is
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: they're going to have to redo the whole health care plan.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: This Affordable Care Act is not affordable, and Democrats proving
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: that by saying it needs subsidies. It's not affordable. The
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Affordable Care Act, the whole idea was affordable health care
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: for everybody. Well, apparently nobody can afford it because you
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: need a subsidy to pay for it. If it was affordable,
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: you wouldn't need that now. The real problem is that,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Liz Peek explained to us yesterday, the original idea with
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: obamacares you'd force everybody on it, and all the younger people,
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: say under forty, don't really use much health care, so
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: they're just paying into the system. And the older people
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: who use all the healthcare, they might be draining the money,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: but all the young people kicking in money makes up
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: for it and it all evens out. The problem is
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: the courts didn't like it, and there was an Act
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: of Congress where they redid the whole thing where they
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: realized and there was a fear they would lose this
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: in court. The idea of a mandate you have to
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: buy this healthcare that the government couldn't do that. So
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: the legislation changed that so they were no longer younger
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: people forced to buy it. And younger people generally don't
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: buy healthcare if they don't have to. So it was
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: all just people draining the system, and that's how it
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: got all screwed up. So they'll have to redo Obamacare.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: President Trump knows that.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: We want a healthcare system where we pay the money
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: to the people instead of the insurance companies. And I
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: tell you We're going to be working on that very
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: hard over the next short period of time. Where the
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: people get the money. We're talking about trillions and trillions
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: of dollars, where the people get the money.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, now it's his plan, He's someone are calling it
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: trump care. Problem is, if you call it trump care,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: every Democrat's going to get sick immediately and going to
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: need some health care. If you call it trump care,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: will any Democrats sign up for it? But the idea
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: of trump Care is they'll give you the money and
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: you go pick your plan. You remember the Obama lie,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: The big Obama lie was if you like your doctor,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: you can keep your doctor. If you like your plan,
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: you can keep your plan. Well, none of that turned
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: out to be true. You couldn't keep your doctor, you
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: couldn't keep your plan, you lost the choice and all
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: that with Obamacare. But with the President's plan of just
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: giving everybody the money, well you can then go out
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: and pick your own plan. It's a pretty good idea.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Another thing President wants to do with the tariff situation.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Tariffs will be coming down slowly but surely. But the
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: tariffs also bring in a lot of revenue, a ton
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: of revenue come the trillions. President says seventeen trillion. It's
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: not seventeen trillion, it's more like seven trillion, but you
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: know him. But it's trillions of dollars coming in in revenue,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: and he wants to start distributing that couple thousand dollars
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: to everybody from the tariffs. You know, the United States
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: didn't have income tax. There was no income tax at
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: all in the United States still about nineteen fifteen. And
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: you'd say, well, how did they find the how did
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: they pay for the government, how did they fund the government? Well,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: with tariffs, there was enough revenue to fund the entire
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: government just off teriffs.
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: President Trump, the tariffs are very high on India because
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: of the Russian oil. And they've stopped doing the Russian oil.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: It's been reduced very substantially. Yeah, we're going to be
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: bringing the tariffs down.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, one by one, each country will get their tariffs
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: to come down, and then you could start distributing some
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: money too from the tariffs.
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: So we're going to issue a dividend to our middle
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: income people and lower income people of about two thousand dollars,
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: and we're going to use the remaining tariffs to lower
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: our debt. We're going to be lowering our debt, which
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: is a national security thing.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so they'll get the check. Now, as you said,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: lower and middle income, upper income, the wealthy will not
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: get a check. Now you're going to say, well, that
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: screws up the tax cuts for the billionaires. These tax
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: cuts for billionaires as well, There was never any truth
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: to that. Every study of the tax cuts show it
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: was almost all entirely for middle and lower income. Every study,
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: even the Biden IRS study showed that. But it doesn't
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: matter as long as you got the media covering for you.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: He yelled tax cuts for the wealthy, tax cuts for billionaires,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: and they keep repeating it, and after a while you've
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: repeat something enough everybody believes it. So the big casualty
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: of the shutdown is Chuck Schumer. Republicans can't stand him,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: but now Democrats can't stand him either. He's just a
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: tired old dinosaur, an old relic, and all his silly
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: tricks don't work anymore. He did one yesterday. He does
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: this trick where he's not going to vote for it.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: He is going to fight and stand up to this settlement.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: He'll vote against it. Meantime, he tells eight other Democrats
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: go switch over and vote for it. He makes sure
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: it gets passed. He tells eight other people to vote
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: for it, and he votes against it just to cover himself.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: But everybody knows he gave the wink in the nod
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: to the other people do it. He's supposed to hold
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: the line and make sure nobody voted for well, he
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: arranged for it to pass. But everybody's wise to him.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: Nobody falls for this. Nobody likes the new glasses. The
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: big swift delos are glasses. But Schumer is done. The
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: crazy wing of the party, the socialist wing, the angry,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: woke left wing, obviously they were out to get him,
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: primary him, chase him out. But now the moderates, the
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: middle class realize he's a useless guy. He's just old
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: and tired in his way of doing. He's the Mitch McConnell.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: He's a Mitch McConnell, Mitch McConnell, Schumer, tired old fossils.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: They all gotta go Schumer. I don't know if he
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: knows it or he realizes it. Republicans now own this
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: healthcare crisis. They knew what was coming. We wanted to
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: fix it.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: Republicans said no, and now it's on them.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: The problem is this, Mom Donnie is pretty slick. Mom Donnie.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: You know he talks fast. He talks really fast, a
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: mile a minute, and he's just sprays things out. Schumer
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: puts on the old glasses and reads his index cards
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: and slowly reads them and you can tell he's reading
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: it off a card. Not effective anymore, especially in the
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: asked mom Donnie age and Schumer just out of touch.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: Hey speaking to mom Donnie. All right, he's appointing more people,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: naming more people. What's this administration going to be like?
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: Look like he's appointed Dean fully Hand to be the
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: first deputy mayor. That's the big job. That's the guy
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: that actually runs things. That's how Eric Adams turned around
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: his administration. He brought in the great Randy Mastro, who
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: was Juliani's a you know, first deputy mayor. He brought
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: in Randy Mastro a year ago, and Randy Mastro ran
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: city Hall and he you know, they got Jessica Tistion,
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: they got him. So that's why you Adam straighten out
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: the first deputy mayor. That's what really determines how an
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: administration is going to run. So Mam Donnie has brought
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: in Dean fully Hand. Now who is he, Well, he
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: was Deblasio's chief of staff. He was Deblasio's budget director
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: in the beginning, then became chief of staff for many
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: years under Deblasio. So as we keep telling you, this
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: is going to look exactly like Deblasio. We got through.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: It was not great Deblasio. Obviously, crime went up and
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: things got bad, but we got through it. We got
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: through eight years of Deblasio. You'll probably be able to
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: get through. Mam Donni. Dean full of Hand will run things.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: He's a Deblasio guy. He'll run it de Blasio style. Now,
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: the only problem is this Dean full of Hand. He
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: is the most connected guy in Albany with the Assembly,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: with the legislature. He's worked up there. That's how you
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: got to know Mamdanni. He kind of mentored Mam Donni.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: But he's a powerful guy with the legislature. The problem
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: there is if he's the first deputy mayor, if he's
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: the key guy in the Mamdani administration, he's a guy
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: will have klout with the legislature if they want to
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: get something passed, he can really push it through. That's
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: a problem that he'll have a lot of influence with
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: the legislature. Now, remember anything that passes, Hulkal has to
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: sign it. Of course, he's a terrible coward. If there's
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: any political pre sure she'll usually cave. But Hokel is
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: the one pushing Mom Donnie to keep Jessica Tish. Mom
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Donnie would have no interest in keeping Jessica Diish, but
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: it's Hokal that keeps pushing that. Now, I don't know
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: in the end, once ma'm Donnie's in there and feels comfortable,
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: I don't know if Hkal have any influence over him anymore.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: Probably not promise Jessica Tish. She's a good police commission
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: but she's very tough and strong, and if you look
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: at the Adams administration, she was pretty tough standing up
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: to Eric Adams, pushing back on things. Adams put up
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: with it. Mom Donnie probably won't, probably won't. He's not
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: looking for somebody to push back on him, so he
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: would not tolerate it. And Jessica Tish, very wealthy woman,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: doesn't need the job, would leave in a second. Who
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: would Mam Donnie bring in. He's a high on his
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: list as Rodney Harrison, former NYPD of Department, Big big
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: NYPD gut he left a few years ago, became the
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: Suffolk County Police chief. Did a good job. You ask
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: people in the NYPD, they'll say, yeah, Rodney here says
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: he's good. He's good. They don't rave about him. They
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: wouldn't be thrilled about him, but they wouldn't be too upset.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: He's a he's pretty good, but look for him high
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: on the list. If Jessica Tish leaves. Now, all this
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: Mamdani stuff, the free buses, he has absolutely no authority
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: to make. He has no control of the buses. That's
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: strictly the MTA, and that's controlled by the governor. Does
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: Hulko want free buses now?
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: I cannot set forth a plan right now that takes
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: money out of a system that relies on the fares
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: of the buses and the subways.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So, however, he could kind of do the free
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: buses by what the Blasio did with the subway. Just
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: tell everybody, you're you're not gonna do anything about turnstile jumping.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: You're not going to arrest anybody for that. And remember
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: during Deblasio. Nobody paid on the subject. Well, normal people did,
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: but everybody else just jumped the turnstile so he could announce,
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: if you don't pay the bus fare, we're not going
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: to arrest you. That kind of stuff. But Mom Donnie,
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: he did promise those buses.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: I continue to be excited at the work of making
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: the slowest buses in America fast and free, and I
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: appreciate the Governor's continued partnership and delivering on that agenda
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: of affordability.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: The slowest busses in America, well, that's the result of traffic.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: Has nothing to do with making the bus free. That's
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: a traffic thing. Now, one good thing about mom Donnie,
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: And everybody's threatening to leave, So Mom Donnie may solve
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: our traffic problem. He may end gridlocked just by everybody leaving,
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: So you've got to give him credit for that.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: I'm just as excited as I was about free buses
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: today as I was more than a year ago. This
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: is the work that will animate so much of what
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: the three of us in what our City Hall will
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: do is to ensure that we are living up to
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: those promises and transform for politics as we know.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, now, if you have free buses. Everybody says that, well,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: they'll just turn into homeless shelters. The homeless we'll just
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: get on the bus and just stay there, just sleep
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: there all day and night. So hey, Tish James are sleazy,
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: dirty Attorney General Letitia James. You know she's got these indictments.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: She's got probably hear there's more indictments coming. Mortgage fraud.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: She bought these houses. We had no idea about this
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: because the media totally corrupt, never ever investigates anything, so
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: we didn't know while she's our attorney general why she's
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: conducting lawfair against Donald Trump. She's also a slum lord.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: That's her hobby, being a slum lord, buying these broken
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: down houses in Virginia, and a couple of them she
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: stuck family members. And this is the one, the famous
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: one with the mortgage fraud that she said was her
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: primary residence. She stuck her niece in there, and apparently
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: a lot of criminals in this family. The niece is
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: jump parole, she's a wanted fugitive. She's been staying in
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: the house and apparently since Letitia James bought that house
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: and put her relative in there, police have been called
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: to the house multiple times. Dozens and dozens and dozens
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: of times. Police have been called there for domestic issues,
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: for suspicious characters, all sorts of stuff. According to police reports,
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: they were sometimes called there multiple times in one day.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: This is a tiss James family. Pretty sleazy, pretty sleezy.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: It's in the genes, I guess. Anyway, Hey, we'll take
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: some calls in a minute. Eight hundred three two one
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: zero seven ten is the number. Eight hundred three two
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: one zero seven to ten.
