Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Nowor presents no. Mark Simon shaw Well will bring you
- 0:10Speaker 1: all the latest on the LaGuardia crash. There's all sorts
- 0:13Speaker 1: of details coming out. We'll bring you all the latest
- 0:15Speaker 1: on Iran. There are talks taking place. We'll explain how
- 0:19Speaker 1: that Iranian lie happened. We'll get to the Democrats. How
- 0:25Speaker 1: are they really pulling for the midterms. You'll be surprised
- 0:29Speaker 1: at the answer. We'll get to lots of stuff today.
- 0:32Speaker 1: Mark Wayne Mullen will be confirmed later there, you've just
- 0:35Speaker 1: been confirmed. He'll be sworn in later today as the
- 0:39Speaker 1: new Department Homeland Security Secretary. So the lines are crazy
- 0:44Speaker 1: at the airport, three four, five hours. But as I
- 0:46Speaker 1: heard Curtis porn out this morning, everybody's whining with these
- 0:50Speaker 1: three hour lines. Walk around New York. You'll see there's
- 0:53Speaker 1: a three hour line for this pizza place in Brooklyn.
- 0:55Speaker 1: There's a three hour line for that hot new donut place.
- 0:58Speaker 1: There's a three hour line at pop up bagels. People
- 1:02Speaker 1: love these lines. Of course in this one, you're not
- 1:04Speaker 1: really getting anything to eat at the end of it.
- 1:06Speaker 1: But the crash, the horrible crash at LaGuardia, Now this
- 1:11Speaker 1: is the interesting part. They've taken the black box out
- 1:15Speaker 1: of the plane. You know that flight recorder, the black box.
- 1:19Speaker 1: It has to be analyzed in Washington. That's where they
- 1:22Speaker 1: have the special equipment that can download the data in
- 1:25Speaker 1: the black box and analyze it. So it's got to
- 1:27Speaker 1: be done in DC. They had to take the box
- 1:30Speaker 1: out of the plane and get it to d C.
- 1:32Speaker 1: I found it interesting that they put it in a
- 1:35Speaker 1: car and drove it to DC. This is the National
- 1:38Speaker 1: Transportation Safety Board, this is the flight experts. They didn't
- 1:42Speaker 1: want to get on a plane with it. They drove
- 1:44Speaker 1: it for four or five hours down to Washington, d C.
- 1:47Speaker 1: They thought it'd be better not to get on a
- 1:50Speaker 1: plane right now. You know. They had a problem with
- 1:52Speaker 1: these National Transportation Safety Board inspectors that come after a
- 1:58Speaker 1: crash and analyze and figure out what happened. They had
- 2:01Speaker 1: to get them to New York and the problem was
- 2:04Speaker 1: they had to get They went through an airport. They
- 2:06Speaker 1: were going to get on a plane, but they had
- 2:08Speaker 1: troubled in the airport. They had to wait in these
- 2:10Speaker 1: three hour security lines. So calls had to be made
- 2:14Speaker 1: to the Transportation Secretary to get these guys through the
- 2:18Speaker 1: security line so they could get here. That was the
- 2:20Speaker 1: delay in getting them here. It's too soon to really
- 2:25Speaker 1: say who's to blame for what it looks like the
- 2:27Speaker 1: air traffic controller really screwed up, but you never know
- 2:30Speaker 1: until you get all the facts. The firetruck, here's the problem.
- 2:34Speaker 1: There was another emergency at the airport at the same time.
- 2:39Speaker 1: There was a plane on another runway that had an
- 2:41Speaker 1: awful smell in the cabin smoke. They thought there was fire.
- 2:45Speaker 1: That's why the fire trucks. And that truck that was
- 2:49Speaker 1: going to cross the runway actually was a caravan. There
- 2:52Speaker 1: were other trucks with it behind it, so that's why
- 2:55Speaker 1: it was in a hurry to get to that scene
- 2:57Speaker 1: of the other emergency, and that's why it wanted to
- 3:00Speaker 1: drive right across the runway to get to that other emergency.
- 3:03Speaker 1: The air traffic controller is in charge of not only
- 3:07Speaker 1: the planes coming in, but he's in charge of everything
- 3:09Speaker 1: on the ground, all the trucks. And you know, they
- 3:12Speaker 1: have radar that they see all the planes, everything in
- 3:14Speaker 1: the sky with there's another radar set they have that
- 3:17Speaker 1: shows everything on the ground, every vehicle, everything where it is.
- 3:21Speaker 1: So it's very hard to coordinate all that. But the
- 3:24Speaker 1: air traffic controller gave the truck that go had to
- 3:28Speaker 1: cross the runway. Now it looks like he forgot that
- 3:32Speaker 1: he'd also cleared an airplane to land on that runway. Now, again,
- 3:37Speaker 1: it's too soon to say exactly what happened. Air traffic
- 3:40Speaker 1: controllers from the past lots of experience have looked at
- 3:42Speaker 1: this and said this guy was just brain dead, just
- 3:45Speaker 1: really screwed up, or there wasn't enough. There weren't enough
- 3:49Speaker 1: traffic controllers in the tower, and one guy was handling
- 3:52Speaker 1: too many things and forgot he had cleared the plane
- 3:55Speaker 1: to land. Now, apparently, once a plane is cleared to land,
- 4:00Speaker 1: that plane owns the runway. It has priority over everything.
- 4:04Speaker 1: If there's a plane landing, nothing, absolutely nothing, no matter
- 4:08Speaker 1: what the emergency, is allowed on the runway. So the
- 4:10Speaker 1: air traffic controller shouldn't have okayed the truck to cross,
- 4:15Speaker 1: And when he saw what was going to happen, he
- 4:18Speaker 1: kept yelling stop, stop, stop. He kept yelling the truck stop.
- 4:22Speaker 1: Now a lot of experts are looking at that saying
- 4:24Speaker 1: that was a mistake too. It's in the middle of
- 4:26Speaker 1: the runway. The last thing you wanted to do is stop.
- 4:29Speaker 1: He should have been yelling get off the runway, or
- 4:32Speaker 1: speed up, or get out of there, something like that.
- 4:34Speaker 1: But telling it to stop was a mistake. But on
- 4:37Speaker 1: the other hand, because it was stopped right in the
- 4:42Speaker 1: center of the runway, the plane hit the truck with
- 4:46Speaker 1: its nose, which is horrible as it was. People were killed,
- 4:49Speaker 1: the two pilots smashed up the nose of the plane.
- 4:52Speaker 1: It might have been worse if the position was a
- 4:54Speaker 1: little different. If it hit the wing and the engines,
- 4:58Speaker 1: it might have blown up something the fuselage. It might
- 5:01Speaker 1: have created a massive explosion and fire that could have
- 5:04Speaker 1: killed everybody on the plane. So a horrible situation. The
- 5:09Speaker 1: stewardess was in that jump seat, not a regular seat.
- 5:12Speaker 1: You know, if they sit up in the front in
- 5:13Speaker 1: that little seat that pops down, that jump seat with
- 5:16Speaker 1: the straps, Well, that's a very special seat. It's got
- 5:20Speaker 1: all kinds of security on its straps and harnesses, and
- 5:23Speaker 1: it's much more secure than the seat the passengers sit in.
- 5:27Speaker 1: They make it much stronger, much more crash resistant. They
- 5:31Speaker 1: make it much safer. And their excuse is why don't
- 5:34Speaker 1: they do all the passenger seats like Well, their excuse is,
- 5:37Speaker 1: you got to make sure the stewardess survives anything because
- 5:40Speaker 1: she's going to need to take care of the passengers.
- 5:43Speaker 1: So that's why, even though it tore out of the
- 5:46Speaker 1: plane and was ejected, flew out of the plane, the
- 5:49Speaker 1: harness system on it kept her totally secure in it,
- 5:53Speaker 1: and she did get a fractured leg, but otherwise she's fine.
- 5:57Speaker 1: She was thrown three hundred feet out of the plane
- 5:59Speaker 1: landing on the runway. An absolute miracle that she didn't
- 6:03Speaker 1: suffer more injuries, but she'll be okay. Yeah, So that
- 6:08Speaker 1: fire truck was actually three vehicles that we're going to
- 6:10Speaker 1: cross the runway. But there's still no explanation. They got
- 6:14Speaker 1: to wait and investigate the whole thing. And some are
- 6:19Speaker 1: saying this fire truck driver should have realized he's on
- 6:21Speaker 1: a runway, should have look every which way to see
- 6:24Speaker 1: if anything was coming. So there's a lot of blame
- 6:28Speaker 1: to go around, but it's too soon, too soon to
- 6:30Speaker 1: do it. We'll see. Let's get to Iran. We continue
- 6:37Speaker 1: to aggressively strike Iran round the clock. I know the
- 6:42Speaker 1: President said, done that tweet on Saturday forty eight hours
- 6:46Speaker 1: or else we're going to obliterate your number one power plant.
- 6:50Speaker 1: Is there's a few power plants in Aran. There's one
- 6:52Speaker 1: main central power plant, big ten billion dollar power plant.
- 6:56Speaker 1: He said, if he doesn't end in forty eight hours,
- 6:58Speaker 1: we're going to obliterate that power plant. Then yesterday putting
- 7:02Speaker 1: out another tweet, we'll give you five more days to negotiate.
- 7:06Speaker 1: President has been saying that they're negotiating with Iran. This
- 7:11Speaker 1: has been the word for a week. There are negotiating
- 7:13Speaker 1: with Iran. So Iran puts out a statement saying we've
- 7:16Speaker 1: had absolutely no talks with the United States. Now fake news, MSNBC,
- 7:22Speaker 1: the CNN, New York Times because aha, the President lied there.
- 7:26Speaker 1: Iran has said they're not talking to the United States. Well,
- 7:29Speaker 1: there are talks. We have quadruple confirmed it every which way.
- 7:34Speaker 1: Talks have been taking place around the clock. Here's the deal.
- 7:37Speaker 1: There's a third party involved, actually two, there's two other
- 7:41Speaker 1: nations that are the middlemen in these talks. Iran talks
- 7:44Speaker 1: the other nation. They relay the stuff, we relay the
- 7:48Speaker 1: answer back. It's going through another nation. So that's why
- 7:51Speaker 1: Iran is able to tell that. It sounds like a lie,
- 7:54Speaker 1: but it's actually not the Actually, if you look at
- 7:56Speaker 1: the Iranian statement, we are not in talks with the
- 7:59Speaker 1: United States. So that's how they get away with it.
- 8:02Speaker 1: They're doing it to a third party, which is often
- 8:04Speaker 1: the way it's done over there. You know, for all
- 8:07Speaker 1: the talk that this is Israel pushed us into this,
- 8:11Speaker 1: this is net Nyaho leading Trump around. They always want
- 8:14Speaker 1: to convince you that Trump is a puppet of Putin,
- 8:17Speaker 1: and now that he's a puppet of net yah who
- 8:19Speaker 1: he's being led around by net Nya who. But as
- 8:22Speaker 1: much as Israel and net Nya who wanted to get
- 8:24Speaker 1: rid of Iran, it was really the Saudis that pushed
- 8:26Speaker 1: us even harder into this, even the New York Times
- 8:30Speaker 1: admitting that in a big story today, Saudi Arabia pushed
- 8:33Speaker 1: for going after Iran more than anybody. Hey, Bill O'Reilly
- 8:37Speaker 1: will be with us later and his last podcast with
- 8:41Speaker 1: Lindsay Graham, who sees all the intel every day, sees
- 8:44Speaker 1: all the daily intelligence briefings, everything. He'll explain to us later.
- 8:49Speaker 1: There was an imminent threat. There was a very real threat,
- 8:52Speaker 1: and that's why we had to go when we did.
- 8:54Speaker 1: That's why he couldn't wait. We'll get to that later
- 8:56Speaker 1: in the second hour. What that exact imminent threat was
- 8:59Speaker 1: nuclear stuff from Iran and long range missiles. But we
- 9:05Speaker 1: continue to attack round the clock aggressively, striking anything and everything.
- 9:10Speaker 1: We're not going after the power plants right now. But
- 9:13Speaker 1: there are talks, President Trump, you are now having really
- 9:15Speaker 1: good discussions. They started last night, a little bit the
- 9:22Speaker 1: night before that.
- 9:23Speaker 2: And I think they're you know, I think they're very good.
- 9:28Speaker 1: They want to they want peace.
- 9:30Speaker 2: They've agreed they will not have a nuclear weapon, you know,
- 9:33Speaker 2: et cetera.
- 9:33Speaker 1: Et cetera. Yeah, we'll see. Hey, ICE agents in the
- 9:37Speaker 1: airport now. They've sent the ICE agents into the airport
- 9:41Speaker 1: and not the full not that Minnesota combat uniform with
- 9:45Speaker 1: the mask and look like they're going into Vietnam. Not
- 9:48Speaker 1: that uniform. They got them toned down baseball hats. They
- 9:52Speaker 1: just say police, they don't say ICE on it. But
- 9:54Speaker 1: they're really a big help in the airports because they
- 9:56Speaker 1: can do the security of the perimeter, the front of
- 9:59Speaker 1: the line, guard, the gates and all that stuff, freeing
- 10:02Speaker 1: up the TSA agents just to do the actual inspection.
- 10:07Speaker 1: Tom Homan on the scene checking everything with Icy.
- 10:09Speaker 3: ICE agent's doing is helping TSA plug the holes of security.
- 10:14Speaker 3: For instance, I mentioned they can work exceit lanes and
- 10:17Speaker 3: relieve TSA officers from that duty and put that TSA
- 10:21Speaker 3: officer back on the x ray machine. And when you
- 10:24Speaker 3: go to the airport, you show our identification before you
- 10:27Speaker 3: get to the x ray machine. Maybe they can do that.
- 10:29Speaker 1: And thank God for the left wing Democrats who are
- 10:32Speaker 1: at the airport and are there to scream like maniacs
- 10:35Speaker 1: at the ICE agents. They love to yell and scream.
- 10:39Speaker 1: Here's one woman screaming at the ICE agents. Go back
- 10:42Speaker 1: to your master, Donald Trump, go back to your master
- 10:46Speaker 1: Net Yahoo. If he's still alive, go back to your master.
- 10:50Speaker 1: Then there's another woman screaming. Ice out now, Ice out. Now.
- 10:54Speaker 1: They hate the Sea law enforcement anywhere. But the ICE
- 10:57Speaker 1: agents were all over the place. A lot of airports yesterday,
- 10:59Speaker 1: Atlantisgo Cleveland, Houston, Fort Myers, New Orleans, New York, JFK, LaGuardia, Newark, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Pittsburgh.
- 11:08Speaker 1: A lot of ICE agents out there now in San
- 11:11Speaker 1: Francisco at the airport. And this was totally separate. You
- 11:15Speaker 1: remember the President said ICE agents will be in the
- 11:17Speaker 1: airports and they'll arrest any illegals. Well, this incident had
- 11:21Speaker 1: nothing to do with that statement. This was totally different.
- 11:25Speaker 1: Just by coincidence. ICE agents had been tracking an illegal woman,
- 11:29Speaker 1: illegal immigrant who there was a twenty nineteen deportation order.
- 11:35Speaker 1: Seven years ago, she was ordered deported. She's been ducking
- 11:38Speaker 1: and avoiding a law enforcement for seven years now, and
- 11:42Speaker 1: she happened to go into the San Francisco airport. They
- 11:45Speaker 1: followed her there and got her there and they arrested her.
- 11:49Speaker 1: She started screaming, crying, jumping up and down, making a scene,
- 11:55Speaker 1: and of course it's San Francisco. All the left wing
- 11:58Speaker 1: crazy screaming and yelling at ICE taking out their phones.
- 12:01Speaker 1: The videos have gone super viral of this woman being arrested.
- 12:05Speaker 1: But she's totally illegal. The warranted deport her came out
- 12:09Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen. They've been hunting her ever since. This
- 12:12Speaker 1: had nothing to do with the ICE agents at the airport,
- 12:16Speaker 1: but the video all over the place. Now, if you
- 12:20Speaker 1: watch fake news, you're going to see all these stories
- 12:23Speaker 1: about how the lines, the three four hour lines. People
- 12:26Speaker 1: are blaming Republicans and this is not the case. I
- 12:29Speaker 1: think everybody knows. The shutdown is Chuck Schumer and the Democrats.
- 12:33Speaker 1: They will not fund Homeland Security and TSA. This has
- 12:38Speaker 1: nothing to do with ICE. ICE has already funded, they
- 12:40Speaker 1: got all their funding. This is a separate matter. But
- 12:43Speaker 1: they're holding it up, holding up this funding, demanding changes
- 12:47Speaker 1: in ICE and all it. But it's absolutely insane. People
- 12:51Speaker 1: do blame the Democrats. If you're watching NPR or PBS,
- 12:56Speaker 1: you'll see these fake polls that they put out, which
- 13:00Speaker 1: it's very easy to do. You just slant the metrics,
- 13:02Speaker 1: you take the pole in the wrong place with the
- 13:04Speaker 1: wrong people, and you can get whatever results you want.
- 13:07Speaker 1: But we give credit to CNN. CNN changes are happening
- 13:14Speaker 1: over there. A lot of things are changing at CNN's
- 13:17Speaker 1: still left wing and kooky, but every so often they
- 13:20Speaker 1: go totally honest, and they did with a pole. Democrats
- 13:24Speaker 1: and the midterms are in big trouble, totally underwater. CNN
- 13:28Speaker 1: pollsters the lowest ever.
- 13:29Speaker 2: Look at us overall, they are fifty five points underwater.
- 13:34Speaker 2: They're approval rating is south of twenty percent. It's even
- 13:37Speaker 2: worse when you look at Independence. Look at this negative
- 13:40Speaker 2: sixty one points. That means that they're approval rating is
- 13:43Speaker 2: sixty one points lower than their disapproval rating.
- 13:46Speaker 4: Quinnipiac has been polling this question for the better part
- 13:49Speaker 4: of the twenty first century. They have never found Democrats,
- 13:53Speaker 4: at least those in Congress, and worse shape than they
- 13:55Speaker 4: are right now.
- 13:56Speaker 1: You can thank Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jefferies. They've got
- 13:59Speaker 1: you at the lowest poll numbers you've ever been in
- 14:02Speaker 1: in history. Now, why do they put out these fake
- 14:05Speaker 1: poles making it look like Democrats are going to win
- 14:07Speaker 1: while this talk about Democrats will take them into it's
- 14:10Speaker 1: to discourage fundraising for the Republicans. It's to just convince
- 14:15Speaker 1: people to donate to Democrats. But that's the real story.
- 14:19Speaker 1: That's CNN right there. Hey, remind me that we'll ask
- 14:22Speaker 1: Bill O'Riley about this later too. I noticed CNN is
- 14:26Speaker 1: trying out something. You know, you got all these new podcasts.
- 14:30Speaker 1: Sean Hannity has a good one. It's called hanging Out
- 14:33Speaker 1: or something like that, where it's not Sewan with the
- 14:35Speaker 1: suit and tie in the studio. It's Sean looks like
- 14:38Speaker 1: in a basement with a pool table and a dartboard. Casual,
- 14:41Speaker 1: like he's at home, very casual. Now, the guy that
- 14:45Speaker 1: started all of this was Bill Maher with Club Random,
- 14:49Speaker 1: which was actually done in the basement. Now to the
- 14:51Speaker 1: basement of his big mansion with very very expensive looking basement.
- 14:56Speaker 1: But it's in the basement. He's casual, you know, jeans
- 14:59Speaker 1: and a sweater and they're drinking. Well. So everybody is
- 15:02Speaker 1: copying this now for their podcast, trying to look as
- 15:06Speaker 1: casual as they can get. But everybody was a little shocked.
- 15:09Speaker 1: Yesterday CNN did it on the air. Jake Tapper when
- 15:12Speaker 1: he came on, didn't come on from the big shiny
- 15:15Speaker 1: news set with a suit and tie. He came on
- 15:17Speaker 1: from what looked like a basement. It sort of is
- 15:20Speaker 1: at home office, looking very casual. So this is this
- 15:25Speaker 1: is the new trend. This is supposed to save television.
- 15:28Speaker 1: Actually saves a lot of money on scenery and lights
- 15:31Speaker 1: and all of that. But anyway, we'll talk about that later.
- 15:33Speaker 1: We'll take some calls next. Eight hundred three two one
- 15:37Speaker 1: zero seven ten is the number. Hey, we want some
- 15:39Speaker 1: new callers. Sometimes people say you got a lot of
- 15:41Speaker 1: the same callers every day. Well that's because they're good regulars,
- 15:45Speaker 1: but also it's because they know the number. You know,
- 15:47Speaker 1: a lot of people want to call. I hear that too,
- 15:50Speaker 1: I would call I don't know the number. Eight hundred
- 15:53Speaker 1: three two one zero seven ten. That's the number eight
- 15:58Speaker 1: hundred three two one zero seven ten
