- 0:00Speaker 1: Now more.
- 0:01Speaker 2: Mark Simone on sevent TENR.
- 0:07Speaker 1: Well, if you drink tea, don't go away. I got
- 0:10Speaker 1: to tell you something. We'll get to the DNC. They're
- 0:13Speaker 1: in real trouble. We'll get that crazy little worm, doctor Fauci. Well,
- 0:18Speaker 1: we made the big announcement last hour. This program will
- 0:24Speaker 1: expand one hour. It's going to be nine to noon
- 0:28Speaker 1: starting next week, a week from today, starting Monday, the
- 0:31Speaker 1: show will start an hour earlier, nine to noon, and
- 0:36Speaker 1: it'll be three hours, not two. And everybody's saying congratulations.
- 0:41Speaker 1: I walked down the hall. Everybody, Hey, congratulations, congratulations. It
- 0:45Speaker 1: means I got to get up an hour earlier. But
- 0:48Speaker 1: it's been a push for this for years. I've been
- 0:50Speaker 1: avoiding it. But by popular demand, the show will expand
- 0:56Speaker 1: an hour. It'll be nine to noon starting next Monday,
- 1:00Speaker 1: so we'd be able to listen in not three hours,
- 1:02Speaker 1: and it starts at nine. I just saw they sent
- 1:05Speaker 1: out a press release. WOR has announced today a long
- 1:14Speaker 1: term contract with legendary radio personality. Oh see, that's the
- 1:17Speaker 1: other deal. It's a longer contract. I think I had
- 1:22Speaker 1: a year and a half left. This is like a
- 1:24Speaker 1: long contract, so you are stuck with me for a while.
- 1:27Speaker 1: But and of course they opened up the checkbook. It
- 1:31Speaker 1: came through. But it's a long term contract, it said,
- 1:37Speaker 1: one of the most recognizable voices will remain on the
- 1:39Speaker 1: air for years to come. And let's see it goes on. No, no, no, no,
- 1:44Speaker 1: it's all flattering stuff here, but we don't need to
- 1:47Speaker 1: read all that. But starting Monday, nine to noon. You see,
- 1:51Speaker 1: I had this all worked out perfectly. Every show's three hours,
- 1:53Speaker 1: but this show was two hours. It was perfect ten o'clock.
- 1:58Speaker 1: And believe me, it wasn't easy for me to get
- 1:59Speaker 1: up early enough to get here at ten o'clock. I'm
- 2:02Speaker 1: used to sleep until ten eleven o'clock like a normal person.
- 2:05Speaker 1: But so I have to get up an hour earlier.
- 2:08Speaker 1: I suppose it can be done. I should start practicing
- 2:11Speaker 1: this week. So starting Monday, nine to noon, every day
- 2:15Speaker 1: nine to noon. Now, if you're a podcast listener, means
- 2:18Speaker 1: you'll get an extra hour on your podcast, So don't
- 2:22Speaker 1: forget starting Monday. Hey, let me play this again. This
- 2:26Speaker 1: is Scott Besson, who's brilliant talking about Mom Donnie and
- 2:30Speaker 1: these crazy socialists communists, the same thing, these crazy communists socialists,
- 2:38Speaker 1: they got one running in Michigan today, President Trump flying
- 2:41Speaker 1: the Michigan to try to prevent that from that person
- 2:45Speaker 1: from being elected. But listen to best and explain it
- 2:49Speaker 1: perfectly what this socialism is all about. You know, government
- 2:51Speaker 1: grocery stores, government buses, government dic government. What's that really
- 2:55Speaker 1: all about?
- 2:56Speaker 3: In New York, the current mayor rose to power by
- 2:59Speaker 3: repackaging failed ideals of the past as a moral cause
- 3:03Speaker 3: of the future. But in Georgia, you know, the beneath
- 3:07Speaker 3: that youthful veneer lies the oldest impulse in politics, which
- 3:12Speaker 3: is to concentrate power and then call it compassion.
- 3:16Speaker 1: Yeah, see, that's it. That's what it really is all about.
- 3:19Speaker 1: Why would the government housing, Why government grocery stource. It
- 3:23Speaker 1: concentrates power. You become totally dependent on them for the
- 3:29Speaker 1: simplest things that used to be everywhere. Now it's only
- 3:31Speaker 1: the government that can hand it to you. It's a
- 3:33Speaker 1: way of concentrating power. And that's what it's really all about. Now,
- 3:38Speaker 1: Momdani knows that a government grocery store here and there,
- 3:42Speaker 1: that's the idea, and then eventually be all government grocery stores.
- 3:46Speaker 1: By the way, with his government grocery stores is a
- 3:50Speaker 1: government grocery store officials are now admitting, well, there'll be
- 3:56Speaker 1: no butcher, there'll be no hot food. They'll be uh, now,
- 3:59Speaker 1: listen to this. They're admitting it'll be the normal prices.
- 4:03Speaker 1: The only things that will be cheaper will be eggs
- 4:06Speaker 1: and bread. So far, that's it, eggs and bread. Now.
- 4:10Speaker 1: I don't know if you notice, but you know, there
- 4:12Speaker 1: was a big controversy in the last year of Biden.
- 4:15Speaker 1: The price of eggs was through the roof. It was
- 4:17Speaker 1: costing a fortune for eggs. Well, President Trump took office
- 4:21Speaker 1: and the price of eggs plunged. And it wasn't even
- 4:24Speaker 1: really the president. There was problems in the egg industry,
- 4:27Speaker 1: and you know, the pandemic there had broken out. Anyway,
- 4:31Speaker 1: they got it all fixed in the industry. Price of
- 4:34Speaker 1: eggs is plunged. It's way down. So there's no any
- 4:39Speaker 1: need for this. Now. If you wanted to lower the
- 4:42Speaker 1: prices in the grocery stores, if this is his idea
- 4:44Speaker 1: that the grocery stores are too expensive, that's the problem
- 4:48Speaker 1: we're trying to solve. You could get the price down
- 4:50Speaker 1: in these grocery stores very easily. Now, the grocery stores
- 4:53Speaker 1: can't really lower the price because they don't make any profit.
- 4:56Speaker 1: They operate like on a one percent profit marginer two
- 4:59Speaker 1: percent unheard of most businesses. It's a thirty percent profit margin,
- 5:04Speaker 1: twenty maybe in a bad business it's ten percent. A
- 5:07Speaker 1: one percent profit margin. You know how tough that is.
- 5:10Speaker 1: But what you could do in the worst neighborhoods or
- 5:13Speaker 1: the neighborhoods where you decide you need this. You could
- 5:16Speaker 1: go to these grocery stores and say, we want you
- 5:18Speaker 1: to cut the price of eggs and bread or whatever
- 5:21Speaker 1: you want, cut by this much in exchange, will not
- 5:27Speaker 1: tax you. You won't have to pay property tax on
- 5:29Speaker 1: this location. If you take that savings and put it
- 5:32Speaker 1: into the lowering the price, you could do that in
- 5:34Speaker 1: a second. You could start that tomorrow literally. But this
- 5:38Speaker 1: plan of building a grocery store to do that, and
- 5:42Speaker 1: they're talking about the grocery store taking three four years
- 5:44Speaker 1: to build, they're talking about it costing thirty million. Normally
- 5:49Speaker 1: a grocery store costs two million to build and open.
- 5:52Speaker 1: They're talking thirty million. So whenever government does anything, it
- 5:56Speaker 1: really does it in a horrible way. And so you'll
- 6:00Speaker 1: I'll never live to see a government grocery store in
- 6:01Speaker 1: New York. They'll never happen. He'll never get this thing built.
- 6:05Speaker 1: He's speaking of grocery stores. You know, Morton Williams. They're
- 6:08Speaker 1: all over in New York. They're very good, those Morton Williams.
- 6:13Speaker 1: There's one right over there, block away. They're really good
- 6:15Speaker 1: and they're open twenty four hours. But Morton Williams, it's
- 6:19Speaker 1: two guys. It's Morton and Williams. And Morton was Morton Sloane,
- 6:25Speaker 1: who I believe was also Sloan Supermarket years ago. But
- 6:28Speaker 1: Morton Sloane was the morty of Morton Williams. And he
- 6:31Speaker 1: died on Friday. A wonderful guy, very very nice man,
- 6:36Speaker 1: very sad to listen.
- 6:37Speaker 4: You know.
- 6:37Speaker 1: He sold Morton Williams about six months ago. They sold
- 6:41Speaker 1: at the shop right for one hundred and fifty million.
- 6:44Speaker 1: So he sells his business one hundred and fifty million
- 6:46Speaker 1: and he dies a few months later. But he was
- 6:48Speaker 1: a very very nice man. Now do you drink tea? Now,
- 6:54Speaker 1: when you drink, you put the tea bag in, all right,
- 6:56Speaker 1: you got the boiling water, you put the tea bag in.
- 6:58Speaker 1: You let it steep for a minute or two or three,
- 7:02Speaker 1: and then what do you do at the end. You
- 7:05Speaker 1: always take the spoon or whatever and you crush the
- 7:07Speaker 1: tea bag against the side, right. You squeeze it at
- 7:10Speaker 1: the end to get out the last remaining whatever. This
- 7:15Speaker 1: is very important. Experts have explained now that squeezing the
- 7:21Speaker 1: tea bag at the end is the worst mistake you
- 7:23Speaker 1: can make. Do not do it. The the tea bag
- 7:28Speaker 1: is made to release all the flavors and all the
- 7:31Speaker 1: great fragrance and flavors into the water. When you squeeze it,
- 7:35Speaker 1: even if you just lightly press it with the spoon,
- 7:38Speaker 1: you're actually forcing the bad stuff out, the concentrated tainan's out,
- 7:44Speaker 1: which are dry and bitter. So if you squeeze the
- 7:47Speaker 1: bag at the end, it creates a dry, bitter side
- 7:52Speaker 1: to it. So it never squeeze the bag that way.
- 7:55Speaker 1: Only the good stuff comes out. Very important. Hey, doctor Fauci,
- 8:03Speaker 1: that little worm, that wormy little Fauci. You remember during
- 8:06Speaker 1: the pandemic, Now you got to remember, everybody was terrified.
- 8:10Speaker 1: You stuck at home. You don't know if the world's
- 8:13Speaker 1: ever going to be the same again. You can't leave
- 8:15Speaker 1: your house, you can't go to work, you can't. Everybody
- 8:17Speaker 1: was scared, terrified, so scared that when that Andrew Cuomo
- 8:22Speaker 1: briefing came on every day at noon, we'd watch it
- 8:25Speaker 1: for like an hour. Something was reassuring about it. He
- 8:29Speaker 1: chet charts and grafts. He had a big table with
- 8:33Speaker 1: with the flag and every flags behind him, and he
- 8:35Speaker 1: had three people sitting there and they were all dressed
- 8:38Speaker 1: up and they would explain everything. And you, this was
- 8:41Speaker 1: a ritual every day to watch this. He became like
- 8:45Speaker 1: the father to all of us, you know, reassuring us.
- 8:47Speaker 1: So now then as the you know, as the lockdown
- 8:51Speaker 1: started to end, you were back at work, you were
- 8:53Speaker 1: allowed to go out, restaurants started to open. Nobody ever
- 8:56Speaker 1: watched him anymore, because it's only when you're terrified you
- 8:59Speaker 1: would convince yourself that this guy knew what he was
- 9:01Speaker 1: talking about, but he was horrible. The other one was Fauci.
- 9:05Speaker 1: You look at Fauci, this lovable, sweet little teddy bear
- 9:09Speaker 1: of a Fauci old grandfather type, reassuring the expert. If
- 9:13Speaker 1: you watch, go to my Twitter, there's a video I
- 9:15Speaker 1: put up a montage of all the fake news CNN
- 9:19Speaker 1: networks MSNBC introducing him as the most brilliant scientist, the
- 9:23Speaker 1: greatest ever well, he was horrible, and it turned out
- 9:26Speaker 1: he was wrong about everything, and turned out he was
- 9:29Speaker 1: also lying about a lot of things. He was lying
- 9:32Speaker 1: about the origins of the disease. He bungled up a
- 9:35Speaker 1: lot of stuff. He was doing contact tracing until they
- 9:37Speaker 1: realized you don't do that with an airborne disease. That's
- 9:41Speaker 1: only with a disease that's physically transmitted. He got everything wrong.
- 9:46Speaker 1: But his diaries have come out. His journals apparently kept
- 9:50Speaker 1: journals through the whole thing. Now remember he recently had
- 9:52Speaker 1: to go before Congress and testify under oath. Well, they
- 9:55Speaker 1: had his journals. They seized all his records and everything.
- 10:00Speaker 1: Paul has released the journals. Fascinating to read. Apparently Fauci's
- 10:05Speaker 1: whole whole game was trying to be famous. And he
- 10:08Speaker 1: writes in the journal every day about how much publicity
- 10:11Speaker 1: he's getting and how he wants this fame and how
- 10:13Speaker 1: important the fame and the glory is, and he writes
- 10:15Speaker 1: about it. And that's why I don't understand these people
- 10:18Speaker 1: that write stuff down, keep these journals. Why would you
- 10:21Speaker 1: do that? But it's Miranda Divine is a good calm
- 10:24Speaker 1: today where she goes through the journals in fauci obviously,
- 10:29Speaker 1: just stay a night trying to get himself famous and
- 10:32Speaker 1: get himself loved. Hey, Tom Homan has said, there's going
- 10:35Speaker 1: to be a surge in New York, a big surge coming. Mom,
- 10:41Speaker 1: Donnie's not gonna like it, is gonna like it. There's
- 10:43Speaker 1: nothing they can do about it. Though. This is federal law,
- 10:46Speaker 1: illegal aliens illegally here illegals. Federal law always takes precedent
- 10:52Speaker 1: over local law. It legally totally supersedes local law. So
- 10:56Speaker 1: Holman has said, a big surge is coming. You'll see
- 11:01Speaker 1: it soon. They're going to do it all over New York. Hey,
- 11:04Speaker 1: the movie The Odyssey huge, huge, Try to get a
- 11:08Speaker 1: ticket to see it. You can't. It's so it's sold
- 11:10Speaker 1: out everywhere every theater. It had another big weekend. It's
- 11:14Speaker 1: already up to six hundred million. This is the second
- 11:18Speaker 1: week and it's at six hundred million. Unbelievable. Hey, the
- 11:23Speaker 1: DNC Democratic National Committee, it's a disaster. You know. The
- 11:28Speaker 1: Republican National Committee is doing pretty well. The Republican National
- 11:32Speaker 1: Committee has tons and tons and tons of money. The
- 11:37Speaker 1: DNC has no money. It's just about broke. And this
- 11:41Speaker 1: is the Democratic National Committee. It's very important in the
- 11:44Speaker 1: election because you know, the DNC has to fund all
- 11:48Speaker 1: the local races, distribute the money. Right now, listen to this.
- 11:51Speaker 1: The Republican National Committee has one hundred and twenty nine million,
- 11:56Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty nine million cash on hand, DNC
- 12:02Speaker 1: two million in debt minus two million. Republican National Committee
- 12:07Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty nine million cash on hand. Democratic
- 12:10Speaker 1: National Committee two million in debt. It's a disaster. And
- 12:15Speaker 1: now you're saying, well, why don't they fire the chairman.
- 12:18Speaker 1: It's Ken Martin. In fact, the New York Times, not
- 12:22Speaker 1: the Fox News. Now the New York Times is reporting
- 12:26Speaker 1: that the DNC is in shambles. The chairman has gotten
- 12:29Speaker 1: so crazy that he threw a phone at somebody. He's
- 12:32Speaker 1: so frustrated, so upset, he threw his phone at a
- 12:36Speaker 1: junior aid. He claims he was throwing at a chair
- 12:40Speaker 1: now at the eight. But this is how bad it
- 12:41Speaker 1: is over there. Now you're probably saying, well, why don't
- 12:45Speaker 1: they just get a new chairman, get somebody competent in it. Well,
- 12:49Speaker 1: right now, they're afraid to fire the DNC chairman. First,
- 12:53Speaker 1: it's too close to the midterms. It'll look bad. But
- 12:56Speaker 1: the real reason they'd have to get a new chairman,
- 12:59Speaker 1: and they're afraid right now that the Socialists in the
- 13:02Speaker 1: party will demand a socialist chairman and if that happens,
- 13:06Speaker 1: that's really going to make them look bad. So they
- 13:08Speaker 1: can't change right now because they know the Democratic Socialist
- 13:13Speaker 1: will demand a wacko, crazy socialist head of the DNC
- 13:19Speaker 1: oh Lindsey Graham. The funeral is tomorrow. It's two days
- 13:23Speaker 1: really of stuff Tomorrow and Wednesday. Because of that, a
- 13:27Speaker 1: lot of people from all over the world are coming
- 13:29Speaker 1: into Washington, d C. For this funeral. So tomorrow' Zelenski
- 13:33Speaker 1: will be in Washington. Bb net and Yahoo will be
- 13:35Speaker 1: in Washington. They'll both have meetings with President Trump. We'll
- 13:40Speaker 1: see who has the better meeting. Now, remember Zelensky last
- 13:43Speaker 1: time he Remember when he came and sat there and
- 13:46Speaker 1: got yelled at in the Oval office. He was there
- 13:48Speaker 1: begging for money. It's a different situation now. Ukraine has
- 13:52Speaker 1: created their own factories, they're making their own weapons, their
- 13:55Speaker 1: own drones. They're actually ahead now in the war. They're
- 13:58Speaker 1: actually winning the war slightly, but they're winning. So it's
- 14:02Speaker 1: a different Zelensky that'll show up this time, and because
- 14:06Speaker 1: he's been able to make these factories and produce, he's
- 14:09Speaker 1: now the biggest drone producer in the world. It's almost
- 14:12Speaker 1: at the point where we need to borrow drones from Ukraine.
- 14:15Speaker 1: We need them to supply us now. So because of that,
- 14:19Speaker 1: I think President Trump will have a lot more respect
- 14:21Speaker 1: for him and this should be interesting meetings. Hey, don't
- 14:26Speaker 1: forget the show expands to three hours. This show will
- 14:29Speaker 1: now be nine to noon starting a week from today,
- 14:32Speaker 1: Starting Monday, it's going to be nine to noon. More
- 14:36Speaker 1: on that during the week. We'll take some calls next.
- 14:40Speaker 1: Eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten is
- 14:44Speaker 1: the number. Eight hundred three two one zero seven.
- 14:48Speaker 3: Ten blogged into Everything New York on the Voice of
- 14:52Speaker 3: New York, Mark Simon on seven.
- 14:54Speaker 1: Ten awar, Hey, let's take some calls. Eight hundred three
- 15:03Speaker 1: two one zero seven ten is the number. Let's go
- 15:06Speaker 1: to Robert in Westchester. Robert, how you doing doing well?
- 15:11Speaker 5: Mark, thank you very much and congratulations. I can't wait
- 15:14Speaker 5: for the extra hour, so Mark with You're welcome, sir.
- 15:19Speaker 5: With Mondonnie going to uh to the eleven nine to
- 15:22Speaker 5: eleven memorial. I don't believe he's doing it out of
- 15:25Speaker 5: empathy or what to show, you know, gravitas, or to
- 15:28Speaker 5: be kind to me. I think he's going to stand
- 15:30Speaker 5: there just to be like, I'm here. You don't like
- 15:32Speaker 5: it too bad and suffer with it. I lost somebody
- 15:36Speaker 5: in nine to eleven, and like those other families, I
- 15:39Speaker 5: don't want to see him there.
- 15:41Speaker 1: Yeah no, no, nobody, nobody, nobody wants him there. But
- 15:44Speaker 1: you may thank you said before. Yeah, now you have
- 15:47Speaker 1: a very good point. They're probably those families are going
- 15:51Speaker 1: to turn their back on them in front of the cameras.
- 15:54Speaker 1: So it's good. But he's a very calculating guy. So, uh, listen,
- 16:00Speaker 1: he's anti Semitic.
- 16:01Speaker 5: I know.
- 16:02Speaker 1: He tries to explain it that. I'll listen to this.
- 16:04Speaker 6: I want to make very clear that my criticisms of
- 16:07Speaker 6: prime minist revengement met now are of specifically Prime Minist
- 16:10Speaker 6: Revengement Now, and any criticisms of any foreign state should
- 16:15Speaker 6: never be confused for criticisms of a people or of
- 16:17Speaker 6: a faith, and my responsibility as the mayor.
- 16:20Speaker 1: Sorry, it doesn't pass the smell test of the laugh testing.
- 16:22Speaker 1: You listen, he's this is white supremacy. You know, if
- 16:26Speaker 1: you study white supremacy, one of the key components is
- 16:29Speaker 1: always anti Semitism. And when these communists socialists show up,
- 16:33Speaker 1: it's always anti semitism with them. And you have to
- 16:36Speaker 1: remember with these socialist communists, anti Semitism is just the
- 16:41Speaker 1: opening chapter and then it becomes anti Catholic, anti America.
- 16:46Speaker 1: So clearly anti Semitic, but underneath you're going to find
- 16:50Speaker 1: he's anti Irish, he's anti Italian, he's anti Christian. But
- 16:56Speaker 1: you may have a point there. I think he maybe
- 16:57Speaker 1: wants to show up at that twenty fifth anniversary, even
- 17:00Speaker 1: though the families have asked him not to. I think
- 17:02Speaker 1: he wants to show up just to annoy the whole situation.
- 17:07Speaker 1: Everything is calculating to impress his voters, and if those
- 17:10Speaker 1: families and the cops and where they do turn their
- 17:12Speaker 1: back on him, it'll just energize his base, his crazy
- 17:17Speaker 1: lunatic followers. Let's go to Jack in Putnam Valley. Jack,
- 17:22Speaker 1: how you doing.
- 17:23Speaker 4: Good morning, mister Smoan. Have to apologize you answered last
- 17:26Speaker 4: week and ient mindedly touched the wrong button. But I'd
- 17:29Speaker 4: like to talk about the Republicans. Should they're responsible from
- 17:33Speaker 4: the Mdominie being in there. They put that lightweight como
- 17:36Speaker 4: when they were with a lot of baggage, and had
- 17:39Speaker 4: they backed somebody else, somebody, anybody else but Como, we
- 17:43Speaker 4: would have had a chance to beat him. Nobody's taken.
- 17:45Speaker 1: Now you're talking about Perry Como, the singer.
- 17:50Speaker 4: You know, yeah, that's the way. I'm sorry, but that's
- 17:53Speaker 4: that's what I mean exactly. But nobody in the Republicans
- 17:56Speaker 4: admitted that they made a huge mistake by putting them well,
- 18:00Speaker 4: Indian points, closed prisons, you know, yeah, no, he was.
- 18:02Speaker 1: A horrible governor. Listen, you got a good point. This
- 18:05Speaker 1: is what really happened. Every'll argue, well, if Curtis hadn't
- 18:09Speaker 1: been in the race, if Curtis hadn't been in the race,
- 18:11Speaker 1: and Cuomo got every single Curtis voter, he still would
- 18:13Speaker 1: have been way short. Cuomo had no chance. Ever, ever, ever, ever,
- 18:20Speaker 1: Now people like to say, well, Curtis can't win, Well,
- 18:22Speaker 1: you never know, Cuomo, you know, he can't win. Absolutely
- 18:27Speaker 1: had no shot. If Cuomo had never shown up. First
- 18:31Speaker 1: of all, he wouldn't have been in that Democratic primary,
- 18:34Speaker 1: Mam Donnie would not have won the primary. One of
- 18:37Speaker 1: those hacker Democrats would have won, one of those you know,
- 18:41Speaker 1: Scott stringer type Democrats would have gotten it because Cuomo
- 18:47Speaker 1: gotten the primary. It just helped Mom Donni because Cuomo
- 18:51Speaker 1: was so bad in those two primary debates that Mam
- 18:54Speaker 1: Donnie just slapped him around and rose to win the thing. Remember,
- 19:01Speaker 1: Cuomo got wiped out in the Democratic primary, so if
- 19:04Speaker 1: he can't win Democrats, who the hell's he gonna win with.
- 19:07Speaker 1: So had he not been in the race, I know
- 19:10Speaker 1: he'll argue, well, Curtis in the debates took my momentum.
- 19:14Speaker 1: Cuomo never had any momentum. Think about this, There's never
- 19:18Speaker 1: been a race like this in history where the guy
- 19:20Speaker 1: is running Cuomo as an independent, and you've got every
- 19:25Speaker 1: major Republican, including the President, telling everybody to vote for Cuomo.
- 19:30Speaker 1: Everybody I was on the air day and night saying
- 19:32Speaker 1: just vote for Cuomo, don't vote for Curtis, telling everybody
- 19:35Speaker 1: telling you to vote for it. And he still couldn't win.
- 19:37Speaker 1: He was still was like eight points short, so he
- 19:40Speaker 1: could never win anything. I hope he learned this lesson.
- 19:43Speaker 1: He then went on to do a radio show which
- 19:44Speaker 1: is considered the worst radio show ever, and he quit
- 19:48Speaker 1: after a few months. I hope he learned his lesson.
- 19:50Speaker 1: On that too. Let's go to Jacob in Brooklyn. Jacob,
- 19:53Speaker 1: how you doing?
- 19:55Speaker 7: Jacob from Rock and Talking Mark, how you doing?
- 19:58Speaker 5: Wow?
- 19:58Speaker 7: I love your show. Thanks, and I love you show
- 20:01Speaker 7: so much that I listened to your show live and
- 20:03Speaker 7: I listen to your podcast, and so's my mom My
- 20:07Speaker 7: mom loves yourself too. Thanks Mark.
- 20:11Speaker 5: Is it possible to.
- 20:12Speaker 7: Talk to the loose guests that nobody's interested?
- 20:15Speaker 4: What Schumer?
- 20:18Speaker 6: Idiot?
- 20:18Speaker 7: Schumer and our idiot?
- 20:20Speaker 1: Yeah? No, you bring up a good point. I'll explain
- 20:22Speaker 1: that I know what he's talking now, I know what
- 20:24Speaker 1: you're talking about. Schumer is the most useless idiot in
- 20:27Speaker 1: the world. Every Sunday there's no news. There's nothing happening
- 20:31Speaker 1: on a Sunday. So Schumer figured this out years ago.
- 20:35Speaker 1: So every Sunday leaves his family, he they drag a
- 20:39Speaker 1: podium somewhere on the sidewalk and he makes a speech
- 20:42Speaker 1: about something, usually some issue. And that's because there's nothing
- 20:46Speaker 1: happening on Sunday. So on the six o'clock news, eleven
- 20:50Speaker 1: o'clock news, in the papers the next day, they report
- 20:52Speaker 1: on what Schumer said because there's no other stories for
- 20:55Speaker 1: the day and he needs an issue. Every Sunday, so
- 20:58Speaker 1: he runs around his people go all over the Senate
- 21:02Speaker 1: into everybody's office like on Friday, looking for something. And
- 21:06Speaker 1: a lot of these centators tell me they have to
- 21:08Speaker 1: lock their office because the Schumer people come in and
- 21:10Speaker 1: steal your issue. So that's why he gets the coverage.
- 21:14Speaker 1: And on our news today in the morning you'll hear
- 21:16Speaker 1: the Schumer clips because there was nothing else happened yesterday.
- 21:20Speaker 1: And Schumer, he has tried through the years. Well let
- 21:24Speaker 1: me see if I do it on a Tuesday or Wednesday,
- 21:26Speaker 1: no coverage because if anything else is happening, who the
- 21:29Speaker 1: hell would bother with him? It's a pathetic exercise that
- 21:33Speaker 1: this old Willie Lohman, old broken down old senator keeps
- 21:39Speaker 1: doing it. Hey, when we come back to brilliant columnist
- 21:42Speaker 1: Liz Peak, we'll talk to her next on seven to
- 21:45Speaker 1: ten WR It's the Mark Simone Show Live from the
- 21:49Speaker 1: WR Life Back Studios. Well, Liz Peak, the brilliant columnist.
- 21:58Speaker 1: You can read her at Fox News dot com or
- 22:00Speaker 1: The Hill dot com, and of course you'll see her
- 22:03Speaker 1: all over television. But also make sure you check out
- 22:05Speaker 1: our website. A lot of good stuff up there, great
- 22:07Speaker 1: stories and analysis, lizpeak dot com. Lizpeak dot com, Lizpeak,
- 22:13Speaker 1: how you doing.
- 22:15Speaker 7: I am terrific.
- 22:16Speaker 1: I'm putting on.
- 22:16Speaker 7: Don't lose you put it out.
- 22:22Speaker 1: You're cutting out. Where are you on a train or plane?
- 22:25Speaker 2: I'm in Westster.
- 22:29Speaker 1: Ope. We lost her. Are you there now? Call her back?
- 22:35Speaker 1: Try call her back and see. Yeah, she's in a
- 22:38Speaker 1: very remote part of the world Westchester. No believe it
- 22:43Speaker 1: or not, there are places right in the middle of
- 22:47Speaker 1: the busiest areas where there's no cell service or very
- 22:51Speaker 1: bad cell service. You know, the Hamptons there's no cell service.
- 22:54Speaker 1: I mean it's really bad out there Long Island. If
- 22:57Speaker 1: you're driving past Oyster Bay, you get to East Norwich,
- 23:01Speaker 1: around there, you got no cell service. There's parts of
- 23:04Speaker 1: Westchester where it just goes away and you got no
- 23:07Speaker 1: cell service. But we'll call her back and get her
- 23:11Speaker 1: back in case you didn't hear. Starting Monday, this show
- 23:15Speaker 1: is expanding. It's going to be nine to noon starting Monday.
- 23:21Speaker 1: We're adding an hour. That means I gotta get up
- 23:25Speaker 1: an hour earlier. But there was big, big, big, big,
- 23:28Speaker 1: big demand for this. Starting Monday, nine to noon every weekday,
- 23:35Speaker 1: starting a week from day we got her back no. Oh,
- 23:38Speaker 1: we're working on it. We'll get her back. It's very
- 23:41Speaker 1: tough getting the phone. Now what part of Westchester could
- 23:44Speaker 1: she be in? There's no well, I mean obviously White Plains, Scarsdale, Rye, Yonkers,
- 23:50Speaker 1: plenty of Celster. But there's those in between areas. We'll
- 23:54Speaker 1: see if we can find her. Hey, in Maine, they
- 23:57Speaker 1: got a replacement for that Graham plan. They got a
- 24:01Speaker 1: guy named Jackson to take on Susan con Troy Jackson
- 24:06Speaker 1: in his name. All right, it's a great name. It's
- 24:08Speaker 1: like a movie star named Troy j starring Troy Jackson.
- 24:13Speaker 1: But he seems like the dullest guy in the world.
- 24:16Speaker 1: I think that's one reason they chose him. He's a
- 24:19Speaker 1: very very dull guy, so so dull they think he'll
- 24:21Speaker 1: be a good candidate. Oh, we got her back, Liz Peek,
- 24:24Speaker 1: are you there?
- 24:25Speaker 2: I am here. I don't know what happened. Anyway, I'm
- 24:27Speaker 2: happy to join you.
- 24:28Speaker 4: Mark.
- 24:29Speaker 1: Oh, much better, much much better. Some of these Democratic
- 24:32Speaker 1: socialists take New York for instance, Mom, Donnie, who the
- 24:35Speaker 1: hell are these people that vote for him? I know
- 24:37Speaker 1: they're younger, but what kind of people are they?
- 24:40Speaker 5: These?
- 24:40Speaker 1: Younger? Mom, Donnie, voters.
- 24:43Speaker 2: They're overeducated white liberals who are angry that they spent
- 24:48Speaker 2: a fortune on some sort of college degree or graduate
- 24:51Speaker 2: degree and they can or at a living. That's my interpretation, obviously,
- 24:55Speaker 2: is not one hundred percent. But look, I think further seriously,
- 25:01Speaker 2: we know they are mostly white, we know they are
- 25:03Speaker 2: mostly college graduate or have advanced degrees of some sort,
- 25:08Speaker 2: and they've been indoctrinated in the schools they went to.
- 25:12Speaker 2: And this is not just a right wing talking point mark.
- 25:15Speaker 2: It is statistically the case that most faculties, particularly in
- 25:20Speaker 2: the humanities, meaning things like political science or economics or history,
- 25:25Speaker 2: are very left leaning. Most are self identified liberals, not
- 25:29Speaker 2: even democrats, but liberals, and they have taught these young
- 25:33Speaker 2: people the evils of capitalism, the glories of socialism, that
- 25:39Speaker 2: Israel is a colonizing nation and has subjected and carried
- 25:46Speaker 2: out undue hostility and meanness towards the Palestinian people. All
- 25:51Speaker 2: of it is so biased, and all of it is
- 25:53Speaker 2: so basically incorrect that these kids come out just you know,
- 25:58Speaker 2: with a point of view that's very hard to see.
- 26:00Speaker 4: Way.
- 26:00Speaker 2: The good news, mark is that the Trump administration is
- 26:05Speaker 2: I don't know if you saw this, but they're going
- 26:07Speaker 2: to cut down on the amount people can borrow to
- 26:10Speaker 2: go to college, but also to get advanced degrees. Mostly
- 26:14Speaker 2: the new Trump rules have to do with graduate degrees,
- 26:17Speaker 2: and I think it's one hundred percent appropriate. We have
- 26:20Speaker 2: kids getting PhDs in gender studies and guess what, that
- 26:27Speaker 2: is not a great utility. If they want to do
- 26:29Speaker 2: it and they want to pay for it, great, but
- 26:31Speaker 2: you and I the taxpayer, should not be on the
- 26:33Speaker 2: hook for that, and we are so. I think this
- 26:36Speaker 2: is sort of a little known thing that kicked in
- 26:39Speaker 2: July first that the White House has done. I think
- 26:42Speaker 2: it's unbelievably important as sort of a beginning step to
- 26:46Speaker 2: root out these ridiculous, excessive payments to faculties and to
- 26:53Speaker 2: colleges that bring nothing to the table. They don't have
- 26:57Speaker 2: any interest whatsoever. And whether these kids can get a job,
- 27:01Speaker 2: let's make sure they do. And one of the ways
- 27:03Speaker 2: you do that is you cut off the funding.
- 27:06Speaker 1: Well, this is all great, but if you start a
- 27:10Speaker 1: whole new education process, it could be twenty years before
- 27:13Speaker 1: enough of them get out.
- 27:14Speaker 5: Mark.
- 27:15Speaker 2: I agree, but you got to start somewhere, right, I mean,
- 27:18Speaker 2: I agree with you, but this is the cancer this
- 27:21Speaker 2: is the source of the cancer. When you go after cancer,
- 27:24Speaker 2: you go after certainly the symptoms and you try and
- 27:27Speaker 2: excise what is rotten in the body. But you got
- 27:31Speaker 2: us to go to the source, and this is the source.
- 27:33Speaker 2: So let's hope the ballot box corrects this excess sooner
- 27:38Speaker 2: rather than later. It's very interesting to me, you know
- 27:42Speaker 2: that this head of the DSA went on Shannon Breams'
- 27:46Speaker 2: Fox News station, I think yesterday and basically said, yes,
- 27:51Speaker 2: we want to abolish the Senate, we want to abolish ice,
- 27:54Speaker 2: we want to abolish in the electoral college, we want
- 27:57Speaker 2: to abolish borders, et cetera. They are such lunatics, want
- 28:02Speaker 2: to abolish prisons because and Shannon Breen comes back with, well,
- 28:06Speaker 2: you know, shouldn't some people be in prison, you know,
- 28:09Speaker 2: like murderers and rapists. Well, but we want to get
- 28:12Speaker 2: rid of the conditions that lead to those people being
- 28:16Speaker 2: in prison, meaning poverty. It's so far fetched and idiotic that,
- 28:21Speaker 2: you know, it is the gift that gets keeps on
- 28:23Speaker 2: giving for the Republicans in the midterms, because as much
- 28:26Speaker 2: as people don't like the Republican Party right now, they
- 28:31Speaker 2: dislike the Democrats even worse. And this is going to
- 28:34Speaker 2: really And by the way, Hakim Jeffries is out on
- 28:37Speaker 2: this dump saying, eah, we have a big tent, bring
- 28:39Speaker 2: them on. You know, we want to welcome everybody. He
- 28:42Speaker 2: should not be doing that. He should be saying, no,
- 28:44Speaker 2: we disavow these people. They're crazy, they're anti Semitic. It's
- 28:48Speaker 2: not what the Democratic Party stands for. Where's the backbone
- 28:53Speaker 2: in the Democratic Party. I think you have to I
- 28:55Speaker 2: don't know whether you need a magnifying glass to find it.
- 28:57Speaker 2: Even then, I think you're going to come up short.
- 29:00Speaker 1: Yeah, well we're talking with Liz Peak. You know, no
- 29:02Speaker 1: matter how bad the Republicans are, Democrats always have they
- 29:06Speaker 1: find a way to make themselves worse somehow, they really do.
- 29:10Speaker 2: I mean, right now, if you look at favorability. The
- 29:13Speaker 2: New York Times had this article about the broke, unhappy
- 29:17Speaker 2: Democratic Party, which is a pretty extraordinary story actually, I think,
- 29:21Speaker 2: I mean, it's basically about how the Republicans have The
- 29:25Speaker 2: Republican National Committee has one hundred and thirty million dollars
- 29:29Speaker 2: on hand right now, and the Democratic the DNC is
- 29:33Speaker 2: in a negative too that in other words, they owe
- 29:36Speaker 2: money instead of having collected any and it all goes
- 29:39Speaker 2: back to Kamala Harris spending an enormous amount of money
- 29:41Speaker 2: in her campaign. But they they talk about how unpopular
- 29:45Speaker 2: Donald Trump is and what time this is for Democrats
- 29:48Speaker 2: to score off of that.
- 29:49Speaker 7: Guess what.
- 29:50Speaker 2: The favorability on the Democratic Party is worse than it
- 29:53Speaker 2: is for Donald Trump, and it's worse than the Republican Party.
- 29:57Speaker 2: So forgive me, I'm not really weeping about the Democrats'
- 30:01Speaker 2: financial problems. Maybe if they had a message other than
- 30:04Speaker 2: we hate Trump, maybe they'd be doing a little better.
- 30:08Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 30:08Speaker 1: But as our friend Larry Cutlokip's pointing out, and I agree,
- 30:12Speaker 1: Republicans are not good right now with the messaging. They've
- 30:14Speaker 1: got to come up with the message. What should they
- 30:16Speaker 1: be doing well?
- 30:18Speaker 2: I one hundred percent agree every single one of those
- 30:21Speaker 2: people out there running for their House seat should be
- 30:23Speaker 2: talking up the tax cuts from last year, the no
- 30:26Speaker 2: tax on overtime, et cetera. Republicans are in a defensive
- 30:31Speaker 2: crouch and I get it. Or gasoline prices are over
- 30:35Speaker 2: four dollars and nobody likes the war in Iran. At
- 30:38Speaker 2: the other hand, the economy is doing actually pretty well
- 30:41Speaker 2: right now. Unemployment's very low, investment is booming, manufacturing is increasing.
- 30:47Speaker 2: All the kinds of things that people want to have happened.
- 30:50Speaker 2: So they should be talking up the economy. They should
- 30:53Speaker 2: be talking up the big beautiful bill. The Democrats have
- 30:56Speaker 2: so scared the Republicans with the messaging about how the
- 31:00Speaker 2: wealthy should pay their fair share and the tax cuts
- 31:03Speaker 2: were only for the wealthy. It isn't true, Mark, but
- 31:06Speaker 2: somehow they don't have the guts to stand up and
- 31:09Speaker 2: repute it. I frankly think an awful lot of these
- 31:12Speaker 2: Republicans don't really understand supply side economics, whatever you want
- 31:18Speaker 2: to call it, the fact that tax cuts always always
- 31:21Speaker 2: leads to higher tax revenues and growth in the economy.
- 31:25Speaker 2: They just don't really accept it or believe it. And
- 31:28Speaker 2: that's a problem.
- 31:29Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, the other problem is if you watch the
- 31:31Speaker 1: Sunday shows or the evening news, you get the feeling
- 31:34Speaker 1: we're in the middle of the depression and the worst economy. Ever,
- 31:38Speaker 1: that's really not the case at all, is it.
- 31:41Speaker 2: No, it isn't. And in fact, a couple of data
- 31:43Speaker 2: points on that. I watched the Bank of America Institute
- 31:46Speaker 2: reports very carefully. Because Bank of America does business with
- 31:51Speaker 2: about half the country. I mean, it's a tremendously good
- 31:54Speaker 2: read on what's actually happening into people right now. And
- 31:58Speaker 2: two things of importance. One is consumer spending was up
- 32:02Speaker 2: in the last month for the most in several years.
- 32:04Speaker 2: It was up over six percent, very good number. Secondly,
- 32:08Speaker 2: what they're seeing is that wages are going up at
- 32:10Speaker 2: the bottom end faster than at the top end, meaning
- 32:14Speaker 2: that the income disparity, if that's something that concerns you
- 32:18Speaker 2: and probably everyone should be looking at, that is actually
- 32:21Speaker 2: narrowed under Donald Trump, and real wages are going up,
- 32:25Speaker 2: which they didn't all the time under Joe Biden. So
- 32:29Speaker 2: you also look at what American Express reported the other day.
- 32:32Speaker 2: American Express had incredibly good numbers, and it's because consumers
- 32:36Speaker 2: are spending. Well, they can't spend if they're not optimistic
- 32:39Speaker 2: and if they're not getting income increases. And some of
- 32:43Speaker 2: American Express certainly is the high end is impacted by
- 32:46Speaker 2: the stock market. But the reality is right now the
- 32:49Speaker 2: economy is pretty solid. But you will never hear that
- 32:52Speaker 2: from the liberal media.
- 32:54Speaker 1: Well, this peak brilliant as always, and keep up the
- 32:57Speaker 1: good work on TV. You can get her call at
- 33:00Speaker 1: Foxnews dot com. Thehill dot com. And make sure you
- 33:04Speaker 1: check your website. There's great stuff up there. Lizpeak dot com,
