  Speaker 2: be a cold, cold day. But this is it. This

  Speaker 2: is the last cold day until next year. This is
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: the very final cold day. Today it's gonna go up

  Speaker 2: forties and then into the fifties and next week in

• 0:51
  Speaker 2: So this is the final cold day. This coming weekend,
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: we go on daylight saving time eighteen days until spring.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: Eighteen days until spring. You did it. You got through
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: the winter. You don't have much more to go. Just
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: get through today, and it's going to be warm for
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: the rest of the rest of the whole until the fall,
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: until the winter. So we're in day three, of the
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: action against Iran. Let's call it the liberation of Iran.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: Democrats don't know what the hell to do. They're running
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: around like crazy, trying to find the attack Kolmane. Clearly
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: the Ia tolda clearly the most evil man on earth,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: the closest thing to Hitler in the world today, a brutal,
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: brutal dictator killing his own people at the rate of
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: thirty thousand a month, recently savagely killing them, shooting protesters
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: in the street, the ones that survived and got into
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: the hospital. This is absolutely true. In the last few weeks,
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: the Komeni forces have been going into hospitals and shooting
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: them in the head, right in their bed. This is Komene.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: He's the Hitler of today, obviously trying to wipe out
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Israel and all the Jews. It's a horrible, horrible, horrible situation.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: Something had to be done. They tried at the negotiating table.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: They gave it a good shot. It was clear, very
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: clear that he was not going to negotiate, and he
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: was never going to stop trying to get a nuclear weapon.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: So there was no choice. Time to do something. Now
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: they had spent weeks and weeks and weeks and months
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: planning this attack. They also have spent the last couple
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: of months watching the Iya had told that every day,
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: learning his habits, his patterns, where he went, what he did,
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: and they were going to go. The plan was not
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: to go now. Originally the plan was a few days earlier,
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: and then the plan was for a few days later.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: But something happened on Saturday. They saw and we have
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: incredible intelligence in Iran, we in Israel, and a lot
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: of it is Israel, but we saw on Saturday something developing.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: They were going to hold a meeting with the top
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: forty leaders and the Iatola himself. These forty one people
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: were going to meet in a building. They knew which building.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: They were going to do it on Saturday morning, which
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: would be the middle of the night our time. But
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: the reason they felt it was okay to all show
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: up for this meeting in broad daylight, Iran miscalculated, well,
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: actually I don't know if they miscalculated. They realized a
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: few things. The US always attacks in the middle of
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: the night, always in total darkness, because we are the
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: best in the world with night vision equipment and nobody
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: else is, so we have an advantage in the dark.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: We always attack in the middle of the night, so
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: the Iotola figured it was safe we wouldn't attack in
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: broad daylight. He also figured we wouldn't attack on Ramadan.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: He also figured we Israel's not going to attack during
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: the Shabbat on Saturday, so that's why he felt it
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: was safe to have that meeting and for him to
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: show up at it. So we saw this happening, and
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: we'd been ready to go, and when we saw this,
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: we decided it was the right time take them out.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: And that's when they hit that building, killed the Ayatola
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: and forty of the top leaders, just wiped them out.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: So it was a great, great success. The beginning operation,
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: the news hit the airwaves that we were then bombing Iran,
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: attacking Iran, very tough, tough moment for Democrats. It was
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Saturday morning. They hear the news. They all had to
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: run out and buy Iranian flags. They didn't know where
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: to get them. They went online trying to order Iranian flags.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: It's tough for them. As the bombing continued throughout the
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: day and night. Then they realized on Sunday, they're probably
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: gonna have to tear up those Trump Taco signs, remember those.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Trump always chickens out. So then the Sunday shows come along,
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: and what do you do. They can't praise Donald Trump
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: no matter what he does. If he killed Hitler, they'd
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: be attacking him. Well, he didn't get congressional approval. He
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: didn't follow the War Powers Act. First of all, you
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: don't need congressional approval for the first sixty days. And
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: it's not likely this thing will even make it to
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: sixty days. But you don't need congressional approval for the
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: first sixty days. And if you read that War Powers Act,
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: if there are no boots on the ground, and there aren't,
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: you don't need to worry about congressional approval. President Trump
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: made himself available to reporters in in a way that
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: they even surprised the reporters. Millions of people have his
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: cell number, his private cell number, a lot of reporters.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: He gives it to all of them, and some of
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: them started calling even Saturday morning, just as the news broke.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: John Levine, the great reporter, called Saturday. It was like
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: eight in the morning. The President answered on one ring.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: He usually does, by the way, he'll answer on one ring.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: There are sometimes two rings. If he's really tired about
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: not all he does it, but he'll answer on one ring.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: But Levine got him right on the phone, talked him
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: for four minutes. There are ten other reporters who got
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: the president on the phone. He was happy to talk
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: to them. Democrats had to figure out how to criticize this.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: They had to go on these Sunday shows. How do
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: you criticize President Trump? And he was on the airwaves.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: He was talking, he may address the nation.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: I once again urged the Revolutionary Guards, the Iranian military
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: police to lay down your arms and receive full immunity
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: or face certain death.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: It will be certain death won't be pretty.
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: The entire military command is gone as well, and many
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: of them want to surrender into saving their lives. They
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: want immunity.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: They're calling by the thousands.
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: So first attack from the Democrats was he hasn't exclaimed
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: that to the nation. Why isn't he holding a press conference?
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: Why isn't he Well, he did address the nation at
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: great length. Those are just a couple of clips I
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: got play the whole thing that goes on for a
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: long time. He did address the nation. He talked to
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: eleven reporters, answered all their questions, including a Kristen Welker
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: of meet. The even talked to her Hexath and General
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: kin Raising Cain did a briefing this morning, went on
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: at great length. They took questions for a long time,
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: so that attack doesn't work. The next attack they tried
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: was by the way he was at mar A Lago.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: There was a fundraiser scheduled for Saturday night and he
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: had planned to go to mar A Lago, and they
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: decided he should go to mar A Lago because if
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: he didn't or if they canceled the fundraiser, it might
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: raise suspicion in Iran. They might think there's an attack coming.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: So to keep the illusion up, the fundraiser was on.
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: He went to Florida, which made the Iya Tola even
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: more confident in going to that meeting in broad daylight.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: So they did all of this Saturday morning. The bombing
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: continued throughout Saturday and Saturday night. The president in a tuxedo,
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: went to the fundraiser and then had dinner at mar
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: A Lago. So this was the other democratic attack. Look
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: at that in the middle of this bombing, he's having
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: dinner with millionaires at mar A Lago. How dare he? Well,
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: if you check their record, that's usually what happens. In fact,
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: the biggest military operation of Obama's presidency was killing Bin Laden.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: That was a very, very, very dangerous operation. And while
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: that was going on, Obama was laughing and joking at
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: the White House correspondence dinner, which you're supposed to do.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: Go to the dinner. That makes the enemy think you're
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: not up to anything, the business as usual. So that
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: attack fizzled out. What was the other attack? Well, hey,
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: the other thing is you know they've been attacking Pete
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: Hexath ever since he got in there as totally incompetent,
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: not qualified. Even Mark Kelly, that awful senator over the weekend,
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: still saying Hexath is the most unqualified Secretary of Defense,
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: least qualified secretary Defense. Well, first, that's not true. Hexath
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: has a lot of military experience. And half the people
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: we made secretary Defense had zero military expense. There were
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: a congressman, one was an academic. So he's got more
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: military experience than half of the secretaries of Defense. And
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: as much as you've attacked him, you got to admit
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: he's now run about six of the most complex, sophisticated
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: military operations flawlessly taken out the nuclear reactors, capturing Maduro,
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: killing the Ayatola. Now we did lose some soldiers. We
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: lost three. As we started bombing Iran, they started firing
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: on neighboring countries. One bomb hit Kuwait, hit one of
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: our military bases, and three US soldiers died there. Also,
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: we just found out yesterday Kuwait accidentally shot down three
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: of our planes. They thought they were Iranian, so it
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: was friendly fire. Kuwait shot down three of our planes.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: But the good news, all six pilots ejected safely. So
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: now I'm trying to think of the other attacks. They
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: just couldn't find the attacks, and then they went back
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: to he didn't get congressional approval. You don't need congressional approval,
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: and the last eighteen wars and nobody's gotten any congressional approval.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Then the other attack. I was watching this all day Sunday,
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: especially the Sunday Shoes. They tried this new attack. He
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: ran on the promise of no regime change. The central
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: theme of his campaign was no regime change. We all
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: watched that campaign. I don't remember that ever coming up.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: Do you remember that as even being mentioned. I don't
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: the central theme. I think the central theme was the border,
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: illegal immigration. I think the central theme was taxes, the economy.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: May have mentioned regime change somewhere in the campaign, but
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: it was not a theme of the campaign. He did
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: say in the campaign company He did promise a few times,
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: no more endless wars. And that's what this is. No
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: more endless wars, no boots on the ground. There's not
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: going to be any endless tried you know, nation building,
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: trying to occupy the nation. There'll be none of that here.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: So it was a tough tough time for Democrats. They
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: didn't know what to do. They got to attack him
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: left and right, no matter what he does, no matter what. Now, Mom,
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: Donnie is the mayor of New York. His job is
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: to pick up the snow, run the police department. But
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: being a crazy left winger, he's got to shoot his
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: mouth off.
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: Today's military strikes by the United States and Israel mark
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: a catastrophic escalation in an illegal, active war of aggression,
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: bombing cities, killing civilians, opening up a new theater of war.
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: Americans do not want this.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: First of all, he has no qualifications to speak about this,
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: has absolutely no knowledge of what he's talking about is
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: not in the illegal war, and Americans are all upset. Well,
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: I hate to break it to you, they're all in
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: the streets celebrating. That was the problem with CNN. Every
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: time they went out to see some Iranian protesters or
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: what they thought were protesters, turned out it was people celebrating.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: Iranians all over the world are celebrating. They're so grateful
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: to the President for getting rid of the evil, evil
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: barbarian liberating Iran. So CNN goes out and there's a
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: bunch of Iranians gather, and they thought they would get
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: them to attack the president, but no, they were celebrating.
• 12:17
  Speaker 5: The celebration is striking. We got here just moments after
• 12:23
  Speaker 5: initial reports, initial rumors of the death of Iola kmm
• 12:26
  Speaker 5: and A had just started to trickle from Iran to
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: this diaspora community, and people were jumping in excitement, hugging
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: each other, crying, saying that basically they've been waiting forty
• 12:39
  Speaker 5: seven years for this very.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: Day, their country has been limited liberated. They're thrilled.
• 12:46
  Speaker 6: Thank you, Donald Trump.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: Now this is a CBS. They've got somebody on hoping
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: they'll bad mouth Trump, but no.
• 12:51
  Speaker 6: Thank you, Donald Trump, Thank you Benjamin Netya who, thank
• 12:54
  Speaker 6: you America. It's not death to America after they killed
• 12:57
  Speaker 6: the leader the Americans in the Israelis did it. It's
• 13:00
  Speaker 6: not death to Israel and death to America. It's thank you.
• 13:03
  Speaker 6: It's a new day dawning, but very early days, very
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: very early days. So we'll have to see what comes.
• 13:10
  Speaker 6: But it's the Iranian people that have been telling me
• 13:13
  Speaker 6: over and over and over again, we want this.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So it is one sane democrat out there. John Fetterman.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: I never thought i'd say this. Remember when he was running,
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: he was a crazy lunatic in the shorts and the hoodie.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: But boy, he's changed.
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: Remember the State of the Union speech. As the President
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: comes down the aisle and sees everybody, all of the
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: Democrats refuse to look at him, touch him, shake hands.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: They the only one, the only Democrat that shook hands
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: with him was Fetterman, and he got nothing but flack
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: for it.
• 13:44
  Speaker 7: And if someone's angry that I shook the President's hand
• 13:47
  Speaker 7: as he walked in, that's I think that's on them.
• 13:52
  Speaker 7: And I think some of the people that were angry
• 13:55
  Speaker 7: that I did that, they didn't really have a problem
• 13:57
  Speaker 7: when Mandamn he visited with the White House too, So
• 14:02
  Speaker 7: like if we refuse to talk to the other side,
• 14:05
  Speaker 7: I mean, that's the only one that really loses, that's America.
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Now, he might be following the Bill Clinton model.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: You know, back ninety nine Bill, No, No, No, ninety two one.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: Bill Clinton saw that the party, after all these defeats
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: from you know, they lost, losing a Rag and a Bush,
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: Democrats were really on the outs, so they went far
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: to the left. They were left wing wacko kooks. Bill
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: Clinton decided to be the common sense moderate and lead
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: the party back to the middle, and that's how he
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: got the nomination. Fetterman might be thinking that right now,
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: with all the left wing crazies in the Democratic Party,
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: he'll be the moderate. He'll be the common sense Democrat
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: and lead them back to the center and back to victory.
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: So Fetterman was the only Democrat not going after the
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: president for Iran.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: That's bizarre.
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 14:59
  Speaker 7: I'd like to remind my i colleague over in the
• 15:01
  Speaker 7: House that I ran massacre at thirty thousand of their
• 15:04
  Speaker 7: own people. Right now, this war is not about the
• 15:07
  Speaker 7: Iranian people. It's about this poisonous regime. And that's why
• 15:11
  Speaker 7: I'm proud to stand with our military. I'm proud to
• 15:14
  Speaker 7: stand with Israel too. I might be a democrat, but
• 15:17
  Speaker 7: in this specific case, the President is absolutely correct.
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: It's a courageous thing to say if you're a democrat.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: So anyway, we'll get back to this. We'll take some calls.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: Next coming up, we'll get to our old buddy, Neil
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: saidaka the nicest guy in the world and the most
• 15:32

• 17:30
  Speaker 8: Frankie Avalon Paul Anka. What great music. Now there was talent.
• 17:36
  Speaker 8: And I just want mentioned real quick. My sister was
• 17:40
  Speaker 8: on American Bandstand with Dick Clark and she met Neil
• 17:44
  Speaker 8: Sedaka and he actually asked her out, and my stupid
• 17:48
  Speaker 8: sister said no, Yeah, so there was my per What
• 17:52
  Speaker 8: a dope.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so there was my inn.
• 17:54
  Speaker 8: You know, I could have been you know, I have
• 17:56
  Speaker 8: a decent voice, I can say.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: I don't think so that was my inn.
• 18:00
  Speaker 8: I could have been somebody. But now just another bum
• 18:03
  Speaker 8: walking around of Polucaville.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: He's quoting from on the waterfront. But yeah, I mean
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: I hate well, actually, let me think now. Neil Sidaka,
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: the love of his life was his wife, Liba Liba Sidaka,
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: whose family owned the Big hotel in the Catskills where
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: a very young Neil Sidaka worked and met her there.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: So I think he might have wanted to go out
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: with your sister, but I think he was already on
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: the way to marrying Liba Sidaca even back then. Let's
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: go to Mike in Florida. Mike, how you doing. Good morning,
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: Mark that's Mike.
• 18:38
  Speaker 9: I wanted to mention Neil Sidaka, but just one thing
• 18:40
  Speaker 9: before that, one way to demo the Republicans can modify
• 18:44
  Speaker 9: the Democrats to just say that Komane was in the
• 18:47
  Speaker 9: Epstein files.
• 18:49
  Speaker 10: He could have been.
• 18:51
  Speaker 9: But yeah, you know the other thing about Sadaka other
• 18:55
  Speaker 9: than is obviously I'm not telling how far bia for
• 18:58
  Speaker 9: me to tell you, but well associate for others, you know,
• 19:01
  Speaker 9: I mean being a member of the brill building and
• 19:04
  Speaker 9: that that whole crowd over there is quite remarkable.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he wrote, he wrote the Love Will Keep Us Together,
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: a huge hit for the Captain and to Neo. What
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: else I'm trying? What else did he write?
• 19:15
  Speaker 9: He wrote for Connie Francis.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, of course, I'm sorry. Now do you know
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: that the biggest song one of his songs, Well, that's
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: a long story. Sinatra started to sing The Hungry Years
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: in concert and it was a it was a very touching,
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: very serious ballad from Neil Sidaka about he and his
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: wife when they struggled when they were poor, the Hungry Years,
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: and it was all about how he misses the Hungry Years.
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: And Sinatra started to sing it in concert and then
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: dropped it after a few weeks and Neil Sidaka asked
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: me once, could you ask Sinatra why he dropped us?
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: And I asked him, and that's a beautiful song. It's
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: beautifully written. He said, I didn't understand the song. I
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: didn't get it. He said, you missed the hungry Yers.
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: I miss when we were poor, he missed when we
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: lived in this little apartment. Moved back there.
• 20:06
  Speaker 7: You just go back.
• 20:07
  Speaker 9: It's so Sinatra, it's funny.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, thanks for calling. There was another song.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: It was a huge hit Barbara streisand People nineteen sixty four.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: It was the biggest hit in the world, People who
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: Need People are the luckiest people in the world. And
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: Sinatra had always sing the current and we would never
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: sing it, and they asked him why. He said, I
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: don't understand the song. People who need people are the
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: luckiest people. What the hell does it mean? And he
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: was right, Let's go to Rich and Myrtle Beach.
• 20:36
  Speaker 9: Rich.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: How you doing?
• 20:38
  Speaker 10: Hey?
• 20:38
  Speaker 8: Thanks Mark, you know, Neil Saidakh was also good friends
• 20:41
  Speaker 8: with Arthur Spooner on The King of Queens towards the Yeah, Jerry,
• 20:45
  Speaker 8: that's series one, Jerry.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: Still, Yeah, we'll talk about Neil saidak, and the next
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: hour we'll get him. He was a real New York guy.
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: He lived right over there, fifty eighth in Park. Let's
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: go to Vincent in Brooklyn. Vincent, how you doing.
• 20:56
  Speaker 10: Good morning, Mark, I'm okay, Mark. Thanks for talking about
• 21:01
  Speaker 10: all the people in the United States who were celebrating
• 21:06
  Speaker 10: the offering of the Komany, Marked, that's nothing compared to
• 21:12
  Speaker 10: what they were doing in Europe. In Europe they were
• 21:16
  Speaker 10: processions celebrating Commaney getting whack. That in Paris looked like
• 21:23
  Speaker 10: they were blocks and blocks and blocks long, carrying the
• 21:27
  Speaker 10: old Iranian flag, not the new Iranian flag, the murderer's flag.
• 21:33
  Speaker 10: Also in Italy, in London and in Greece. And these
• 21:38
  Speaker 10: people were speaking. None of them had towels on their head,
• 21:41
  Speaker 10: like the whack jobs, the green haired monsters with the
• 21:45
  Speaker 10: nose rigs who were protesting in Times Square and Mark,
• 21:50
  Speaker 10: these people they copied George Sorows. They immediately had these
• 21:55
  Speaker 10: massive placards made up with the picture of Donald Trump
• 22:01
  Speaker 10: and pe Levy's son that they want to go start
• 22:04
  Speaker 10: the interim government. And their new slogan is right from
• 22:08
  Speaker 10: Donald Trump, make Iran great again, Mega and It shows
• 22:14
  Speaker 10: a profile of Donald Trump looking forward and at his
• 22:17
  Speaker 10: side pe Levy's son and on the need it says,
• 22:21
  Speaker 10: Mega and I'm telling you marked the celebrations in Italy
• 22:26
  Speaker 10: and Greece and Paris were massive.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: All right, well, Vincent, that's great to know. Excellent call,
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: Thanks for calling. Yeah, we'll get to a Pavlovi. It's
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: the son of the Javaran who's been leading, you know,
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: the way. He wants to go back and run the country.
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: From what I hear, they don't want him to. They
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: love him, but he hasn't been in the country in
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: forty seven years. You need somebody who knows what's going
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: on over there. Hey, when we come back to the
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: brilliant columnist Liz Peak, we'll be with us next and
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: we'll talk to her about all of this coming up.
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: But first on seven to ten w R.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: Now mark someone on seven ten R.
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: Well, we're looking for Liz Peak. Hey. By the way,
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: a lot of people have asked about Michael Goodwin. You know,
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: he's been under the weather for a while, but I
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: spoke to him late last week. He's feeling much better
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: and should be back with us on the show probably
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: next week. Well, we'll hope next week he'll let us
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: know when he's ready to come back. He's taking some
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: time off to but we'll have Michael Goodwin back on
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: the show soon. So that's been tough on Democrats. You know,
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: first they Maduro, they all had to go out and
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: buy Venezuela flags. They already had their Ukrainian flags. This
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: is it's just tough on them. Now they got to
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: all run around buying Iranian flags, and it's not easy
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: on them. And everybody is stunned at some of the
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: Democrats in their reaction. Adam Schiff on the Sunday Shows,
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: when asked should we have taken out Kolmani said, no,
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: very harsh reaction. But anyway, we'll get back to that. Well,
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: we got Liz Peak, oh right, the brilliant columnst lis Peak.
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: Of course, you see her all over television and you
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: should check out her site, your website lizpeak dot com
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: if you want great news and analysis and sign up
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: there because you'll get the daily briefing. It's really good stuff.
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: Go to lizpeak dot com, lizpeak dot com, Lizpeak. How
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: you doing.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: I'm terrific. Thanks for having me on.
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: Hey, great to have you. You know, if you watch all
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: the foreign television Europe everywhere, there just celebrating the liberation
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: of Iran, the death of Colmany. But if you put
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: on American television, you get the opposite of what is
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: going on here.
• 24:42
  Speaker 11: You know, I've been thinking about this, Mark, and I
• 24:45
  Speaker 11: think party partly, the wing of the Democratic Party that
• 24:50
  Speaker 11: has exposed exposed itself as being somewhat anti Semitic, is
• 24:55
  Speaker 11: sort of taking it one step further. The fact that
• 24:58
  Speaker 11: the United States partnered with Israel is viewed as an
• 25:02
  Speaker 11: offensive thing that we've done, and the fact that we
• 25:05
  Speaker 11: attacked a Muslim nation, you know, just sort of doubles
• 25:09
  Speaker 11: down on that. I guess it's hard to figure. I mean,
• 25:13
  Speaker 11: I think, look, Trump's arrangement syndrome is alive and well
• 25:19
  Speaker 11: and it isn't going anywhere. And the fact that this
• 25:22
  Speaker 11: president did this, of course makes it almost immediately a
• 25:26
  Speaker 11: knee jerk negative reaction from Democrats. But you also see
• 25:31
  Speaker 11: that to some degree on the far right as well,
• 25:34
  Speaker 11: with Candice Owens and Tucker Carlson and these people condemning
• 25:38
  Speaker 11: this action in part because again of our ties to Israel.
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's really it's pretty horrifying.
• 25:46
  Speaker 11: And I love these Democrats who are saying it's an
• 25:49
  Speaker 11: I llegal war.
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: They have no plan.
• 25:51
  Speaker 11: Do you think that the Trump administration gave a lot
• 25:54
  Speaker 11: of thought to sharing their plans with the likes of
• 25:57
  Speaker 11: Chris Murphy or Elon Ohms. No, I don't think so.
• 26:01
  Speaker 11: I mean so, I think there's a lot to be
• 26:03
  Speaker 11: said here. I must say, I don't know if you
• 26:05
  Speaker 11: saw Pete Hegseat this morning at his breast conference and
• 26:10
  Speaker 11: then also the general in charge of I think Sentcom.
• 26:15
  Speaker 11: I thought they just did a fabulous job of laying
• 26:17
  Speaker 11: out not just the rationale, but kind of what was
• 26:19
  Speaker 11: going on.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: I was on Maria Barbarromo's show this morning.
• 26:23
  Speaker 11: We had Jack Keenan who said, look, you know, in
• 26:27
  Speaker 11: forty eight hours, the missiles coming out of Iran have
• 26:30
  Speaker 11: been knocked down to fifty percent of the volume that
• 26:33
  Speaker 11: they were. The navy has been crushed, not eliminated, but
• 26:38
  Speaker 11: certainly very badly hurt.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: There has just been.
• 26:42
  Speaker 11: An enormous amount going on, and the Iranians amazingly.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: Thought that they could attack the Gulf.
• 26:49
  Speaker 11: Arab nations with impunity, and what they've done is now
• 26:53
  Speaker 11: solidify the entire region in opposition to them.
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: So it's a pretty fascinating thing to do.
• 27:00
  Speaker 11: I think it's unbelievably gutsy of this president, because guess what,
• 27:04
  Speaker 11: Politically this is really dicey. When oil prices are up
• 27:08
  Speaker 11: almost thirty percent from the beginning of the year, that
• 27:11
  Speaker 11: is a high cost to Americans, and it's going to
• 27:14
  Speaker 11: be a high political cost to Republicans and to this president.
• 27:18
  Speaker 11: But you just have to say, I give them enormous
• 27:22
  Speaker 11: credit for taking the war to where it should be
• 27:27
  Speaker 11: in the Middle East, which is Iran. And we've been
• 27:30
  Speaker 11: dancing around this for decades, allowing these truly truly evil
• 27:36
  Speaker 11: people who not just slaughter their own citizens happily, but
• 27:41
  Speaker 11: also obviously have attacked Americans repeatedly over the years. We
• 27:46
  Speaker 11: have finally taken it to them, and I think that's great.
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I guess you could you could fairly
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: say that the Ayatola was the closest thing to Hitler
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: on Earth today, killing thirty thousand Zone people month recently,
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: wanting to wipe out Israel and the Jews, just horrible, horrible,
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: the main sponsor of terrorism in the world. And then
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: explain to us the obituaries that we're you're right about
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: this at lispeak dot com. The obituaries in the New
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: York Times, in Washington Post.
• 28:16
  Speaker 11: It's staggering, you know, how Kamanie really had poetry in
• 28:21
  Speaker 11: his heart. And you know, I mean, the concept that
• 28:25
  Speaker 11: this fellow was anything but an evil tyrant is so offensive. Mark,
• 28:31
  Speaker 11: I don't know, you know, every now and then you
• 28:34
  Speaker 11: just kind of think, well, these people have just lost
• 28:36
  Speaker 11: their minds. And I think a little bit that's the case.
• 28:39
  Speaker 11: I just cannot imagine a reporter sitting down to write
• 28:43
  Speaker 11: an oh bit about one of the most hated people
• 28:45
  Speaker 11: on the face of the earth. I mean, it really
• 28:48
  Speaker 11: would be writing an obituary about Hitler and saying, well, gosh,
• 28:52
  Speaker 11: he had a lovely place in the mountains, you know.
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: It would be like saying stupidity.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: It would be like saying a best selling author, yeah, yeah.
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know, yeah exactly.
• 29:06
  Speaker 11: He penned mind comp and oh my goodness, wasn't that
• 29:09
  Speaker 11: a work of genius?
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 29:12
  Speaker 11: I don't know what's wrong with these people, I really don't.
• 29:16
  Speaker 11: It seems to me this is a moment truly of
• 29:19
  Speaker 11: moral clarity. Iran was a great nation, educated people, freedom
• 29:26
  Speaker 11: for women, all the rest of these things, and it
• 29:29
  Speaker 11: became a murderous theocracy that constantly funded and.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: Supported terrorism in the Middle East.
• 29:38
  Speaker 11: And that's why, by the way, Saudi Arabia and the
• 29:42
  Speaker 11: UAE and elsewhere have joined pretty happily. I would say,
• 29:46
  Speaker 11: the United States in fighting Iran.
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: I mean, this is not an easy thing for them.
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: They have undoubtedly.
• 29:55
  Speaker 11: Residents in their own countries who were in league with
• 29:59
  Speaker 11: the Shia Muslim world there. It's going to be a
• 30:02
  Speaker 11: very divisive thing in some of these Arab countries. But
• 30:06
  Speaker 11: the answer is, you know, enough's enough, and they know
• 30:11
  Speaker 11: perfectly well that these are these are bad guys. So,
• 30:14
  Speaker 11: I mean, it's hard to imagine with Israel the United States,
• 30:18
  Speaker 11: the combined military and intelligence capabilities of those two countries
• 30:22
  Speaker 11: and now Jordan, Saudi Arabia, et cetera. Some of those
• 30:26
  Speaker 11: countries are pretty sizable militaries. I cannot imagine this goes
• 30:30
  Speaker 11: on terribly long.
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so as soon as they started, Iran started bombing
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, they hit all the neighboring countries. It
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: wasn't that a big miscalculation. It brought all those countries
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: on board with US immediately. What were they do. So
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: what were they think?
• 30:47
  Speaker 11: I think they must have been thinking. You know, actually
• 30:50
  Speaker 11: you probably saw they came out with the thing thing. Well,
• 30:53
  Speaker 11: that was not intentional. It was a rogue military operation. Yeah.
• 30:58
  Speaker 11: I don't think there's a lot of rogue military cherry
• 31:00
  Speaker 11: groups with their hands on missiles in Iran. But you know,
• 31:04
  Speaker 11: I could be wrong, But yes, I think they were
• 31:09
  Speaker 11: assuming that the Arab countries, which have, let's face it,
• 31:13
  Speaker 11: enabled and turned their attentions away from Iran for a
• 31:18
  Speaker 11: very long time, and let this go on, Let Hesbela
• 31:23
  Speaker 11: carry out terrorist attack from Lebanon. Let you know, Saudis
• 31:26
  Speaker 11: aren't exactly keen on the hooties, but let's face this
• 31:29
  Speaker 11: little dingback group, the hoodies had been allowed to run
• 31:32
  Speaker 11: riot around Saudi Arabia in the Gulf, et cetera. And
• 31:40
  Speaker 11: you know, I think the Iranians just miscalculated.
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: They've just didn't see that they were just ready to
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: say enough.
• 31:47
  Speaker 11: And by the way, they may not have understood that
• 31:51
  Speaker 11: President Trump and Muhammed Bin Salomon, that the facto head
• 31:55
  Speaker 11: of Saudi Arabia have been partners, have been working on
• 31:59
  Speaker 11: a world partnership for a long time since his first
• 32:03
  Speaker 11: term and that's one of the reasons. I mean, that's
• 32:06
  Speaker 11: one of the reasons that Joe Biden went after MBS
• 32:08
  Speaker 11: so aggressively and was insulting to him. He couldn't stand
• 32:12
  Speaker 11: the fact that Trump had actually worked with the guy. Well,
• 32:15
  Speaker 11: that didn't turn out too well because when Biden wanted
• 32:18
  Speaker 11: more oil out of Saudi Arabia, NBS said, no, thanks,
• 32:21
  Speaker 11: we don't think we're going to help you out. So,
• 32:24
  Speaker 11: I mean, I think the Biden and Obama whitehouses were
• 32:29
  Speaker 11: so incredibly instinctively wrong about everything that they should do
• 32:34
  Speaker 11: in the Middle East, and Trump, you gotta say, has
• 32:36
