  Speaker 1: It is in access to Mark by setting a pre
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: set in the iHeart Radio app for his live show
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: and his podcast. Now back to the Mark Simone show
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: on wor Well, let's stick some calls. Let's go to
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Dave in Chicago. Dave, how you.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Doing, Good morning, Mark.
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: I'm doing very well.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: Mark.
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: I saw this report in yesterday's Chicago Sun Times. Federal
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: judge ordered construction stopped for the White House ballroom. He
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: claims it needs congressional approval. Lastly, I thought President Trump
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: was paying for this project on his own. So I
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: really don't understand the problem here.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Well, it's a good question the president. The whole thing
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: is finance. Won't cost the taxpayer's assent. The judge declaring,
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: it's a left wing judge. You look at his picture
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: with the bow tie and the crazy eyebrows and death.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: He's saying the President doesn't have the authority to make
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: massive alterations to the White House. He is nearly the steward,
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: not the owner of the White House. It needs congressional
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: approval maybe, but it's not. It's not, you know. In
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: other words, if the separation of powers, if the Congress
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: decides to remodel the capital. Does the President have to approve? No,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: it's their building, it's the executive branch building, So why
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: would Congress have anything to say about it? And listen,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: the ballroom obviously is a great idea. It's much needed.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: They've always talked about needing this ballroom. And the fact is,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: right now, this is probably the only time in history
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: this will ever happen. Right now, you've got a guy
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: in the White House who is the world expert on
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: building ballrooms. He's built spectacular ones all over the world.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: So if you have a president who happens to be
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: the best ballroom builder on earth, maybe that's the time
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: to build the ballroom. They'll get it done quickly, efficiently,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: for the right cost. It's not just the ballroom underneath,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of room underneath it. That's where they're
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: going to put this security bunkers, uh, you know, the
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: special situation room, all sorts of important stuff under there.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: It'll have to be appealed President, hopefully we'll win at
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: some point. Let's go to Long Island, Edward and Smithtown, Edward.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: How you doing Hi? Thanks? Hey, you been to I've
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: got a great new restaurant in Smithtown. The Chaz, have
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: you been there? No, not yet. Rothman's opened Jerry Sparrow
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: and those guys opened a second place Smithtown.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Oh that's great, Okay, I will give that a try. Okay.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: So uh, I always see West Texas uh intermediate crewede
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: mentioned with oil prices and what we pay for gasoline
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: in the United States. But uh, that's I'm sure it's related,
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: But in a way it's not because West Texas is
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: light sweet crewed and our refineries can't refine that.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: No, they can't, they can they can. We use w
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: T I we use Brent crue, the one we don't
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: like it.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: But but the majority of the crew that the refineries
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: can handle is heavy crude. I think that's why Trump.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Uh No, I know we use we use a West
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Texas uh intermediate, we use Brent crude. We use all
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: that stuff. The one we don't want is this stuff
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: coming from the Straits ormouse. It's dirty, oily, awful, the
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: worst crude in the world. That's what China uses, it's
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: what India uses. A lot of Europe uses that. They
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: use a lot of Brent crude. Uh So why should
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: they raise the price here when we don't. We're not
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: affected by the Straits Army as well. UH Steve Moore
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: than great economists last Hour explained it. It is a
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: worldwide commodity, so it doesn't matter what happens in any
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: one country. The price is set worldwide. Let's go to

• 5:37
  Speaker 4: He sounds like a great kid. He sounds like that
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: is the menace? How convenient the liberal media in regards
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: to Trump doing work at the White House the ballroom.
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: They forget that FBR put a pool in the White House,
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: and that when they called the media room the press room,
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: they say the pool. Well, there's a pool underneath that
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: floor over there. At one time it actually caved in.
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: Mark Mandani and Katy Hokel are always crying the blues
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: about money. Yet last week Mandani set up this communist
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: polling propaganda Bureau of He hired thirteen people for I
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: think a million point seven dollars to just promogate his agenda,
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: to just create propaganda for his agenda. And this other
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: one Katy Hulkell talked about, Oh I need money, congestion Brieston.
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: Yet she's putting, she's bragging last week about this whole

  Speaker 4: new fleet of subway cars that she's putting into service. Well,
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: if you so hung up for money, if you need
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: so much money so badly, why don't you just repair
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: some of the old ones. Oh but we really know
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: the reason why, because she's getting the kickbacks from those
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: companies and contribution from those companies that make this up
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: where the subway cars and everything. And in regards to
• 7:03
