Peter King | Former Congressman Joins S&FIM for Weekly Appearance · Sid & Friends In The Morning

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: My next guest has been as critical of Mamdani as
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: I've been. The great congressman for the better part of
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: four decades. Homeland Security. And I always say this. King Giuliani.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Giuliani King.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: I don't care.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: He's right there at the very top of the best
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: politicians we've ever had in New York.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: My dear friend Peter King. Pete, good morning. How are you?
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: I'm doing fine, Chet. How are you doing? By the way,
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: let me just mention about Caroline Schenkel. I hosted a
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: fundraiser for her in early August. You're right. She's a superstar.
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: She belongs in Congress. She belongs in definitely an elective office.
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: And she is great. Her family is great. She's great.
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: So I'm glad you were there the other night. And
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: I really hope she does well. We need people like her.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: We need people like Janine Driscoll and Nassau County. I mean,
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: Republicans have to get moving, have to get the message out.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: And there's two very articulate spokeswomen who can do it.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: Agreed.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: My son Gabriel did something with Janine Driscoll.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: Was it yesterday or the week before? You know, he
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: still works with Bruce Blakeman. He leaves school.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he leaves school every Wednesday and goes back into
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: Nassau County. So he was helping out with Janine, I
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: think it was last week. But you're right, they're both
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: amazing ladies. And I think they're both going to win.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: We're going to see.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: This airline yesterday from Dubai to Tel Aviv.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: Where the Israeli passengers took.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: Over and saved the day. Unbelievable story, and we're still
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: getting details, and Lawrence Jones was just putting it to BB.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: Do you know for a fact that this guy... Wanted
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: a crash in Israel. Do you know for a fact
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: that this guy had radical Islam ties?
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: All that, you know. Why else did he do what
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: he did?
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Stabbed the pilot and witnesses said he was screaming, but
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: we're still asking the questions.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: Was this a terrorist attack? Really? What are your thoughts?
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: I think we have to assume, again, that it was
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: a terrorist attack. I guess the question is what level
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: of terrorism. The reason I say that, if it was
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: one person, that's bad. That's horrible. But if it was
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: part of an operation, then there could be other similar
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: ones being planned for the future. So you try to
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: find how far this goes, who he was connected with,
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: if anyone, and then you can break a conspiracy. You
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: can break it up. So that's the importance of having
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: the investigation. But no, I mean, obviously the guy, obviously
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: it was either supported terrorism, was a terrorist, But the
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: importance of finding out the extent of his ties is
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: that way he can ward off future attacks. Also, you
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: do what's called an after-action report, and Israel may look
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: to see if they can tighten security in some ways. Like,
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: for instance, I know in the United States, I've been
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: away from it now for a number of years, we
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: used to have to get the passenger manifest of everybody
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: flying in the United States, and we had to get
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: it so many hours before the plane would land here
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: in the United States, and we would go through it.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: Was that foolproof? No, but it was an added measure.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: I'm sure the Israelis do something like that, maybe even more,
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: I don't know. But also then they may have to
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: check on the pilots and that how extensive a background
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: check does Israel get from, let's say, from UAE when
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: a pilot's coming in. Is he being checked? Totally. As
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: Israel warned in advance, it might or might not be
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: on the play. All those things have to be looked at.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: It doesn't mean mistakes were made. It means that you
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: have to tighten them going forward. Like, you know, we
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: had with the Shoebomb. I mean, we have to keep
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: adapting because they're adapting to us. And that's but the
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: important thing is, yes, there's a terrorist threat out there.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: The two top targets in the world are the United
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: States and Israel. And Israel lives in a much worse
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: neighborhood than we do.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: No, no doubt about it.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Of course, the other big question is, is how did
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: this pilot get a knife on board? A man texted me.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: He's a fan of the show. He's a great guy.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: He applies for JEPLA. We said, no, no, we go
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: through the same screening procedures, the same metal detectors that
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: passengers do.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: So he seemed confused. How did this guy get a
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: knife on the plane?
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, issues like that have to be examined, and also
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: how extensive or how effective is the security in these
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: other countries? I mean, Israel has to be, as much
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: as we have to be on guard, Israel has to
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: be just as much on guard, or maybe more so,
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: constantly finding where there could be weaknesses, not in Israel
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: per se, but in countries that Israel is dealing with.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: For instance, in the United States, I know we went
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: several years before he realized the importance of thorough background
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: checks on the guys that actually work at the airport,
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: the guys that are down there servicing the plane before
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: and after it takes off. So all you need is
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: one person in the wrong place at the wrong time,
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: and you can kill hundreds, maybe thousands of people. If
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: that plane was intended to come into Israel, not just
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: killing the passengers on board, which is horrible enough, If
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: that was going to hit a population center, it would
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: have been totally devastating. And almost as much as that
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: is the impact that would have on the psyche of
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: the people. I know Israelis are resilient, and they want
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: to fight back. But when you have something like that hits,
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: you really have to have strong leadership to overcome it.
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: So thank God it didn't happen. Thank God that those
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: pilots— also the people on board. I mean, it really was amazing.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: And also, just think. How many things, first of all,
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: had to go wrong for that to happen in the
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: first place, but how many things had to go right
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: to prevent it? And how that guy was able to
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: alert others that this was happening, how he would have
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: unlocked the door and have those two pilots, standby pilots,
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: make it to the front, have a guy who was
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: able to disarm the madman with the knife. All those
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: things had to come together. Maybe it was one time
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: God was on our side.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it looks that way.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: And, you know, the Israelis helped out the world just
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: a couple days ago. That plot in the U.K., terrorist plot,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: that was the Israelis who figured that out, that Israel
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: has to go through this nonsense yesterday. And all this,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: we're just six days away right now.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: Six days.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: From the three-year commemoration of October 7th. We just did
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: 25 years, 9-11 in America. Now they're about to go
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: through it three years since October the 7th. And what
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: a disappointing world it's turned out to be since. Morons,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: really stupid people buying the propaganda that Hamas knew.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: They knew they'd be effective. They were the murderers.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: They were the ones who committed the genocide, not us.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: They knew we'd buy it, and like a bunch of
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: sheep and morons, a lot of the world, not all
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: of it, not all of it, but a lot of
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: the world actually did buy it, Pete.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: So disappointing.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: It really is. I mean, I never would have thought
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: I was in politics well over 40 years one way
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: or the other between local and Washington, D.C. I thought
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: I had some sense of the way people would react.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: I really thought, first of all, after 9-11 that Americans
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: would all stand together. They did for a while, but
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: then they started to stray off. I thought if there's
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: any terrible atrocity that's going to unite the world on
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: Israel's side, October 7th was it. Instead, from October 8th on,
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: people started turning against Israel. It's just incredible. And again,
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: I come back here to New York, New York City,
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: where 9-11 happened. Whoever thought you have a mayor who
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: is very least sympathetic toward al-Qaeda, gets his picture taken
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: with al-Qaeda operatives, calls for global intifada, and you'd have
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: the streets of New York being taken over by Hamas,
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: Columbia University taken over by Hamas demonstrators. I mean, this
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: is just horrible. And it goes on. And it's always
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: accepted as a normal part of our politics.
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's not like this is like some fringe
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: issue off on the side. It's like almost legitimate that
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: you're a kind of enabling.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: I mean, you got Mahmoud Khalil, who's a campus terrorist,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: who actually garnered sympathy from the networks and people around town.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: What did he do so bad? He was just protesting
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: for the poor Palestinians.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: Do your homework. I mean.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: People are so, I'm tired of talking about it, but
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: people are so stupid. They have no idea about the region.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: You know what does beat me? Because I've gone there
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: five times, okay? I don't sit in Staten Island or
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Brooklyn or New Jersey, wherever the hell Tucker Carlson lives
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: and talks about this issue like they know what they're
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: talking about. They have no idea. They just sound stupid.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: But they buy it. They all buy it. And again,
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: six days away, like you said. And then this mayor,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: he comes out two days ago with this video about
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: this ridiculous anti-Semite, anti-whatever it is, combat unit that he's
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: out there battling anti-Semite. Listen, I made this comparison yesterday, Pete.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: You know these stories. Some loser goes and starts a fire, okay?
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: And then he runs away from the scene. But he
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: knows he's coming back. He's literally across the street watching
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: the fire burn. And when the fire starts to get
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: out of control, he goes back as if he just
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: arrived for the first time. And he puts out the
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: fire and he wants to be deemed a hero. That's Mamdani.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: He started the fire. He continues to let fires burn
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: with his rhetoric about Jews and Bibi and Israel. And yet,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: whether it's Marsha Kramer, CBS, or people in the streets,
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: they want to give this guy credit for that ridiculous
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: video he put out a couple of days ago?
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: What am I missing?
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: You're not missing anything. To me, this is, here's a
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: guy who's enabled anti-Semitism, and all his body language, all
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: the nuance, everything leans against the Jews. And it leans
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: against Jews at a time when there's anti-Semitism running rampant.
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: To me, his idea of being against anti-Semitism is to
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: say that the Jews aren't that much worse than Al-Qaeda,
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: or not that much worse than Hamas. I mean, it's just, again,
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: you're right. He set this in motion, certainly in it,
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: encouraged it, and now tries to go through the motions
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: of saying, look, really, I'm against anti-Semitism. And the fact is,
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: no one has done more at the local level and
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: now at the national level, because he's a national follower.
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: And international, because he's going against Netanyahu, that gives him, like,
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: an international forum And to promote anti-Semitism, anti-Israel, and not
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: even in the sense of policy differences, I support Israel
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: totally on policy. I can see a person having honest differences,
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: do it this way, do it that way. But to
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: say they're carrying out genocide, to say they're an evil state,
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: to say they're violating human rights, that's absolutely, to me,
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: that is a slander. It's a terrible slant. It's damaging
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: to Israel and damaging to the United States. 100%.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: It comes right back here to us. And you know what?
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: I believe his wife right now, this Ramadan, whatever her
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: name is, the one that liked all the images of
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: October the 7th, I think she's.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: In Syria right now.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: I swear to God, every time you got like a
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: big event here in New York City, this woman takes
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: off to some Arab country that's not a friend of
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: the United States. Even with Trump, even with Trump, you know,
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: trying to do a better job with.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: These Arab countries.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: And I guess he is, which I'm not all that
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: thrilled about, to be honest with some of them.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: But that's where she is.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: This lady runs out of here, 250th birthday, when her
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: husband made that dark, disgusting speech and turned Washington's desk around.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: She wasn't even here. She was in some Arab country.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: This is his wife.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: You're going to tell me that he disagrees with his wife,
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: the woman he calls a love of his life, the
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: woman he sleeps with every night when she's not in
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: some enemy Arab country, and he.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: Disagrees with her? No, he doesn't. He's on the same
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: exact page.
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: Was his wife and also his father. I mean, let's
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: face it, this guy comes from a real line of anti-Semitic,
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: anti-American family members. And he's, listen, there's no doubt where
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: his sympathies are, whether or not he actually wants Israel
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: to die. I don't know. But he's certainly against Israel.
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: And again, he's a dangerous person. He's out there. And,
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: you know, you're talking about the Arab countries. Probably the
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: only one you could really count on is Jordan. And
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: that's the government, not the people. And also then Egypt
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: for the most part. But again, it's the government, not
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: the people. The populations in those countries, the Saudis, I
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: wouldn't trust them as far as you can throw them. Listen,
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: for defense purposes, if we can get enough on them
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: that they have to stay with us, that's one thing.
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: But they would turn against us in a second. Listen,
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: you know, say we wind about, you know, the British
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: or the Italians or whatever. We can have policy differences,
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: but we know in the end they are pro-democratic. They
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: believe in the same principles as us overall. Those Arab
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: nations believe in nothing. The Saudis are the most disingenuous,
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: double-crossing people you can imagine. If we can use them
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: to help us, fine, but don't trust them. They will
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: save us in the back in a second.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: They believe in money.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: So explain this to me, because I got the text
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: from Laura Loomer yesterday, so join me coming up at 9.40.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: He's in office for nine months as mayor, okay? And
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: his rhetoric, not just the Jews, the Italians, they hate
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: his guts.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: Trust me. Take a walk in Howard Beach.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: This morning or Little Italy or Arthur Avenue and grab
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: a couple of folks on the street that are Italian.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: Ask them how they feel about Mamdani. They hate his guts.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: They want to kill him like the Jews want to
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: kill him. Just trust me, okay? Trust me. The Irish,
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: they don't like him. The Germans don't like him. I
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: don't know who likes him. Maybe these waspy, blonde, young girls.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: But.
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: This guy who's got ties with all these people that
• 13:40
  Speaker 5: are at the very least terrorist sympathizers, if not terrorists.
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: Lumer has data, written proof, that he's in bed and
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: has been seen with and or talked to legitimate terrorist organizations. How, Peter,
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: you're a man that worked with Homeland Security, how does
• 13:58
  Speaker 5: this country, this administration, give this guy... National clearance. How
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: does this guy get.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: The same information the FBI and the CIA gets on
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: protecting us from terrorism?
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: How did we do that?
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: Well, I've been away from it for a while, but
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: I do know there are different levels of clearances. And
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: I really doubt he would be given any access to
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: really sensitive information. He may get general. And again, I'm
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: not there, so I don't know for a fact. But
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: I would think what he may get is to be
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: told that, hey, there's a real threat against New York.
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: We have to be concerned. And then they would give
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: the information to the NYPD. And so I've been doubly
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: aware that something could be happening. I don't think they
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: would give me any idea where the sources are, what
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: the basis for that is. So there are different levels
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: of security clearance. You take out Nassau County, Fitz McCormick has,
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: I think, the highest you can get. Others get security clearance.
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: Don't go to that level. And I know when I
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: was in Congress— The president got one thing. I was
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: on the intelligence committee. We were supposed to get everything.
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: I don't know if we really did. But I can't
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: believe that you would have anybody giving an FBI briefing
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: who was going to tell Mandami who their source is
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: in Brooklyn, who their source is in the Bronx, or
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: where they got this from, or what foreign country we
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: intercepted this from. Because any number of times we got
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: reports that New York could have been attacked, it wasn't,
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: and then we found out later why in the report–
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: He initially didn't pay it out or it was stopped
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: maybe in some other country before it got here. So
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: those things are really complicated. I can't believe they would
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: give him any idea other than the most general thing,
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: saying we have reports that there could be an attack
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: on the subway system next Tuesday, something like that. But
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: beyond that, as to why, I mean, I mean, I
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: was with Ray Kelly once when there was. Actually, there
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: was going to be a liquid explosive attack on the
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: New York City subway system. And they were actually tracking
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: a guy coming from Denver to New York. And there
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: was like four or five operatives in New York that
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: he was going to hook up with. And Ray, the
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: only time I've ever seen him concerned because they wanted
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: to wait till the guy got to New York to
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: find the guys he would deal with. But if you
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: wait too long, the whole subway system could have been
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: blown up. Having said that, there was only one person
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: in the community, in the Muslim community, they could trust.
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: It was an imam. So they confided in him to
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: try to get more information. He tipped off the bad guys.
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: So that's what we're up against. It's very sensitive. I
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: can't believe. they would be giving Manzami any type of
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: real inside information other than generalities. But yet, I'm not there.
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: I don't know. But knowing people like John Radcliffe and
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: Marco Rubio, I can't believe. that they would allow him
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: to get any information and be really sensitive other than just,
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: you know, the general top line. I can be wrong.
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: I hope I'm not on that. But again, I don't
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: think he deserves a security clearance. On the other hand,
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: for a city like New York, the mayor has to
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: be given some idea of what's going to happen.
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: Makes sense.
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: You know, to mobilize the hospitals, schools, transportation, everything else.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: Well, you make sense.
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: I was trusting him now.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you make a lot of sense. He got top level.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: It doesn't mean he got the highest level. So you're
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: making a lot of sense. And if you're right, and
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: it sounds like you are, then I can live with that.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: Don't love that either.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: I don't either. Right, but he does run this city.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: And if there's a bomb planned in George Washington Bridge
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: or the subways or tunnels, I guess he has to know.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: But he's just such a creep. You're not.
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: You're a beautiful man. I love you to pieces. This
• 17:34
