- 0:00Speaker 1: You just heard the news.
- 0:02Speaker 2: Now you'll find out what it all means.
- 0:05Speaker 1: It smarts alone on seven tenor.
- 0:13Speaker 2: Hey, it's March nineteenth. It's the last day of winter.
- 0:18Speaker 2: Spring tomorrow. Spring begins tomorrow. That's great, we go what
- 0:21Speaker 2: a winter that was to get to remember? So you know,
- 0:24Speaker 2: after two or three winters of really no snow, suddenly
- 0:28Speaker 2: get two, three, four blizzards in a row. It's over.
- 0:32Speaker 2: Spring begins tomorrow. We'll get to the latest on the
- 0:35Speaker 2: war in Iran, the liberation of Iran. We'll get to
- 0:39Speaker 2: crazy Mom Donnie and his latest crazy rulings that he's
- 0:42Speaker 2: come out with. We'll get to crime in New York,
- 0:45Speaker 2: how bad is it really? We'll get to drinking. Why
- 0:47Speaker 2: how come people are drinking less and less and less
- 0:49Speaker 2: and less. So overnight a lot went on. Israelis took
- 0:57Speaker 2: out a major, major net gas facility in Iran. Iran
- 1:03Speaker 2: went crazy responded by attacking Cutter and taking out their
- 1:08Speaker 2: oil giant Cutter energy extensive damage. There. Now the problem
- 1:12Speaker 2: with this stuff, this takes a long time to repair,
- 1:15Speaker 2: drives up the price of oil and energy, and again
- 1:18Speaker 2: takes a long time to repair. And it looks like
- 1:21Speaker 2: there's some sort of rift between President Trump and net
- 1:24Speaker 2: and Yahoo. President Trump putting out a strong statement condemning
- 1:29Speaker 2: Net Yaho for that attack, totally unnecessary in saying it
- 1:33Speaker 2: should never happen again. Now, behind the scenes, apparently Net
- 1:38Speaker 2: Yahoo Israel did brief the president on the attack, the
- 1:43Speaker 2: possible attack, but apparently somebody somewhere, somehow, signals got crossed.
- 1:50Speaker 2: President Trump took it as they were briefing him on
- 1:52Speaker 2: a possibility, when in fact Israel was ready to go
- 1:55Speaker 2: ahead and do it immediately. And that's the confusion. So
- 2:03Speaker 2: it happened. Let's see if it happens again. Let's see
- 2:06Speaker 2: if they get this under control, get their signals together.
- 2:09Speaker 2: I imagine they will. We're changing a course sometimes day
- 2:15Speaker 2: to day in Iran. The biggest fear now is the drones.
- 2:19Speaker 2: We've taken out most of the missiles and most of
- 2:21Speaker 2: the missile launchers. That's not the big threat anymore. These
- 2:25Speaker 2: attack drones, and they can go for one thousand miles
- 2:28Speaker 2: these drones, and of course they're guided from somewhere else.
- 2:31Speaker 2: The problem a missile you can usually take out because
- 2:34Speaker 2: you can see the launcher and take it out. A
- 2:36Speaker 2: drone you can't see. It can be hidden in a
- 2:38Speaker 2: basement and a garage and a warehouse. You have to
- 2:41Speaker 2: know where they are, and we've been lucky great intelligence,
- 2:44Speaker 2: mostly from Israel, knowing which warehouse is to blow up,
- 2:47Speaker 2: and we've taken out probably ninety five percent of their drones,
- 2:51Speaker 2: but they had a tremendous amount of inventory of drones,
- 2:55Speaker 2: so there's plenty left. The difference now is we used
- 2:59Speaker 2: to go after them with missiles. We try to shoot
- 3:01Speaker 2: down the drones from far away. We're now using a
- 3:05Speaker 2: ten war hogs. Those are Apache helicopters that can get
- 3:08Speaker 2: in much, much, much closer. This is a sign of
- 3:12Speaker 2: how much progress we've made. The missiles from far away,
- 3:16Speaker 2: from miles and miles hundreds of miles away, that's called
- 3:19Speaker 2: standout weapons. Stand off weapons. We have to do it
- 3:24Speaker 2: from far away. These Apache helicopters and go in there
- 3:26Speaker 2: are called stand in weapons. And to be able to
- 3:30Speaker 2: send those in there and get close means we've taken
- 3:32Speaker 2: out most of their offense. It's a lot safer to
- 3:35Speaker 2: go in with these now, so that's a good sign
- 3:38Speaker 2: of real progress. The son of the Ayatola Machabi Common
- 3:45Speaker 2: I can't say this guy's called Common a is supposed
- 3:49Speaker 2: to be the leader. Our intelligence is showing he's not.
- 3:53Speaker 2: He's totally out of commission due to massive injury from
- 3:57Speaker 2: the bombing, so he's not really in charge. It was
- 4:00Speaker 2: Lejhanni who was in charge. We took him out two
- 4:02Speaker 2: days ago, so we don't really know who's in charge
- 4:05Speaker 2: at the moment. Now, oil prices have sort one hundred
- 4:08Speaker 2: and eleven dollars a barrel. This is a temporary spike,
- 4:12Speaker 2: so we're getting oil at Biden prices nowadays. Now, if
- 4:15Speaker 2: you're watching the nightly news last night, if you were
- 4:19Speaker 2: watching the NBC Evening News nightly News, you saw the
- 4:24Speaker 2: screaming headline at the opening, oil prices soaring to a
- 4:28Speaker 2: new highest level in years. They couldn't. This was the
- 4:31Speaker 2: lead story, the big front story. This was the first
- 4:34Speaker 2: five minutes going on and on about the oil prices
- 4:37Speaker 2: hit up highest level in years, and they kept going
- 4:39Speaker 2: on and now, let me just predict this. This is
- 4:43Speaker 2: an easy prediction. In a few weeks, when this is
- 4:46Speaker 2: all over and oil prices plunge, it will not make
- 4:49Speaker 2: the NBC Nightly News. There'll be no coverage of it.
- 4:53Speaker 2: If you're watching last night, you would think that oil
- 4:56Speaker 2: prices are the main topic of their coverage at all times.
- 4:59Speaker 2: This is all they can care about his oil prices.
- 5:01Speaker 2: When they plunged to sixty dollars, it won't get mentioned.
- 5:05Speaker 2: There'll be no coverage of it by NBC or by
- 5:09Speaker 2: any network. They'll never mention oil prices again. In a
- 5:13Speaker 2: few weeks when it plunges, they'll be zero coverage. Now,
- 5:17Speaker 2: you had these congressional hearings yesterday about was Iran actually
- 5:21Speaker 2: an imminent threat? What kind of imminent threat was it?
- 5:23Speaker 2: So they're going to go on and on with these hearings.
- 5:28Speaker 2: Apparently the President's daily briefing, the real deep intelligence that
- 5:33Speaker 2: we get showed it was an imminent threat that when
- 5:36Speaker 2: we took out the nuclear eractors, Iran was quickly trying
- 5:41Speaker 2: as hard as they could to get more nuclear material
- 5:44Speaker 2: and planning and plotting some sort of attack on us,
- 5:46Speaker 2: on Israel. There was an imminent threat. And remember all
- 5:49Speaker 2: these people yelling and screaming against this incursion, this excursion,
- 5:54Speaker 2: this liberation of Iran. All these people are on record
- 5:58Speaker 2: for years as saying, we got to get rid of
- 6:00Speaker 2: the Iahtola, you got to get rid of Iran. It's
- 6:02Speaker 2: the biggest threat in the world, and every Democrat from
- 6:05Speaker 2: Hillary Clinton to Obama to Biden, all on the record
- 6:09Speaker 2: and video is up there. You can see it all
- 6:11Speaker 2: over the Internet of them promising for years to take
- 6:14Speaker 2: out the Ayahtola, to get rid of this regime in Iran,
- 6:17Speaker 2: to do something about it. It's one reason they're so
- 6:20Speaker 2: upset President Trump. It's really two reasons. Democrats are really
- 6:23Speaker 2: upset about this. By actually getting this done, it takes
- 6:26Speaker 2: away one of their big campaign promises that they use
- 6:30Speaker 2: every campaign season, so they've lost that promise. And the
- 6:34Speaker 2: other reason is it removes the greatest threat ever to Israel.
- 6:38Speaker 2: Israel's existence has changed forever because the biggest threat was Iran,
- 6:44Speaker 2: and all the attacks on Israel from Hamas, Hezbollah hoodie's
- 6:49Speaker 2: were all financed and run by Iran. So you eliminate
- 6:54Speaker 2: all the terrorism with this one move. The Democrats don't
- 6:58Speaker 2: like that. They like Israel in constant trouble at all times. Now.
- 7:04Speaker 2: That guy Joe Kent who quit, he was the counter intelligence, intelligence,
- 7:10Speaker 2: national director, intelligence, national counter something, whatever the hell he was.
- 7:14Speaker 2: This is the guy that quit because of there was
- 7:18Speaker 2: no threat from Iran, no imminent threat, no anything Well,
- 7:22Speaker 2: it turns out the real reason he quit he was
- 7:25Speaker 2: under serious FBI investigation as a leaker. Now, this guy,
- 7:30Speaker 2: he's tried to run for office before, and apparently he
- 7:33Speaker 2: wanted to run for office again, and he looks like
- 7:36Speaker 2: a sharp guy and he's a good talker, and he
- 7:38Speaker 2: thought he could get elected. But he was leaking out
- 7:41Speaker 2: classified information. He was under that's the allegation. He was
- 7:45Speaker 2: under investigation for it, not since he resigned, No long
- 7:49Speaker 2: before that it started. In fact, that's probably the reason
- 7:51Speaker 2: he resigned. He was under investigation. Now, why would he
- 7:56Speaker 2: be leaking out classified information. Well, if you want to
- 7:59Speaker 2: run for all, if you want to do stuff like that,
- 8:01Speaker 2: you make friends with the news media. And the quickest
- 8:03Speaker 2: way to make friends is become a source. Even better
- 8:07Speaker 2: ways become a leaker. That's probably what this was all about.
- 8:10Speaker 2: But he was under investigation. Still is this guy could
- 8:14Speaker 2: end up in jail a bad guy, which kind of
- 8:18Speaker 2: explains everything. Why would he suddenly quit over the war
- 8:20Speaker 2: in Iran? He was pushing for the war in Iran
- 8:22Speaker 2: for years. He also seems to have a lot of
- 8:26Speaker 2: anti Semitism in his dialogue, always bashing Israel, always accusing
- 8:31Speaker 2: Israel of everything, even accused Israel of pushing us into
- 8:35Speaker 2: the Gulf War. Well, if you check the record, Israel
- 8:38Speaker 2: always opposed the Golf w In fact, they were trying
- 8:40Speaker 2: to stop us from going in back then, Caroline Levett,
- 8:43Speaker 2: White House Press Secretary, about this leaker.
- 8:46Speaker 3: Anyone who has been a suspected of leaking or is
- 8:49Speaker 3: proven to be a leaker will not be welcome in
- 8:52Speaker 3: this administration. I know that for a fact, because I've
- 8:55Speaker 3: heard the President say it myself. There are investigations underway
- 8:59Speaker 3: into leakers this administration, and people will be held accountable
- 9:02Speaker 3: for that.
- 9:03Speaker 2: Yeah. Now that's Joe now with all his anti Semitic ranting,
- 9:07Speaker 2: and he wanted to speak somewhere yesterday publicly. Where did
- 9:11Speaker 2: he go to speak, Well, if you wanted to pick
- 9:14Speaker 2: the most anti Semitic place in the world, you go
- 9:17Speaker 2: to speak. Yep. He went to the Tucker Carlson podcast
- 9:22Speaker 2: and was on there for a great length of time.
- 9:24Speaker 2: He and Tucker and anti Israel, anti some medic stuff
- 9:29Speaker 2: flowing out of their mouths. All of me is I mentioned.
- 9:32Speaker 2: You know, for weeks and weeks they medium, they come
- 9:36Speaker 2: up with these false narratives, they try to drill it
- 9:38Speaker 2: in your head. One of them they've been working on
- 9:40Speaker 2: is that with the Iran and all of this going on,
- 9:43Speaker 2: there's a split in the magabase. The magabase is torn,
- 9:48Speaker 2: the magabas is turning against Donald Trump. Well, there's no
- 9:51Speaker 2: truth to that, as we've been telling you, absolutely no
- 9:53Speaker 2: truth to that at all. And what are they talking about?
- 9:55Speaker 2: What magabase' Well they're talking about Tucker Carlson, Archery, Taylor Green,
- 10:01Speaker 2: Megan Kelly. These people have nothing to do with MAGA.
- 10:04Speaker 2: They're not in MAGA. They're not in the magabase. They
- 10:08Speaker 2: have no connection to it. These are like freak show
- 10:12Speaker 2: that they're like thenew Alex Jones. You remember Alex Jones.
- 10:14Speaker 2: He was like this crazy fringe character who got a
- 10:17Speaker 2: big audience but had nothing to do with the Republicans,
- 10:20Speaker 2: nothing to do with MAGA, nothing to do with Trump.
- 10:23Speaker 2: They have these on the left too, they're like really
- 10:25Speaker 2: far out freak show left wing podcasts and hosts that
- 10:29Speaker 2: have nothing to do with mainstream, mainstream Democrats. But the
- 10:33Speaker 2: magabase is not torn. And this was a quite a
- 10:36Speaker 2: moment on CNN. CNN's Polster they were forced to admit
- 10:42Speaker 2: the actual results. They did a deep poll into the
- 10:46Speaker 2: MAGA world to see if they still supported Trump. What
- 10:50Speaker 2: percentage of MAGA do you think still supports Trump? Look
- 10:54Speaker 2: what they listening with. The CNN pollster on the air
- 10:56Speaker 2: had to admit.
- 10:57Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, sometimes you look at the polling data
- 10:59Speaker 1: and there are numbers that just jump off the screen
- 11:02Speaker 1: at you, and this is one of those. Because just
- 11:05Speaker 1: take a look here, MAGA GOP a view of Trump
- 11:08Speaker 1: approve one hundred percent, one hundred percent. If you are
- 11:12Speaker 1: a member of MAGA and the GOP you approve of
- 11:16Speaker 1: Donald John Trump zero percent, say that they disapprove. You
- 11:20Speaker 1: don't have to be a mathematical genius to know you
- 11:22Speaker 1: can't go higher than one hundred percent. He is the
- 11:25Speaker 1: nineteen hundred and seventy two Miami Dolphins.
- 11:29Speaker 2: That's CNN. Now, if CNN's poll says it to one
- 11:33Speaker 2: hundred percent, that means it's like one hundred and twenty percent.
- 11:35Speaker 2: Probably they always slant every pole, but even in their
- 11:38Speaker 2: rig slanted pole, he came out at one hundred percent. Hey,
- 11:42Speaker 2: speaking of crazy left wing networks that have no ratings,
- 11:46Speaker 2: MSNBC announces big changes in the lineup. What's that? I mean?
- 11:51Speaker 2: You know that old thing about shuffling the deck chairs
- 11:54Speaker 2: on the Titanic. This is a good example. No ratings
- 11:57Speaker 2: for MSNBC, but Joe will become six to nine instead
- 12:02Speaker 2: of six to ten, three hours instead of four. I
- 12:05Speaker 2: would imagine he's not that upset about it, although it
- 12:09Speaker 2: probably was a pay cut with that, with that loss
- 12:12Speaker 2: of an hour, but that's tough four hours. Although you
- 12:16Speaker 2: know Morning Joe. Years ago, around two thousand and five,
- 12:19Speaker 2: two thousand and six, somewhere around there was four hours
- 12:22Speaker 2: on the radio, and then it was four hours on TV,
- 12:26Speaker 2: then two hours on the radio. They would get off
- 12:29Speaker 2: the air ten and then go on radio from ten
- 12:31Speaker 2: to noon. And this was on the other station back
- 12:35Speaker 2: when I was there. And then for some reason Mika
- 12:37Speaker 2: or Joe, I guess they were just tired, didn't want
- 12:39Speaker 2: to do it happened so half the time I had
- 12:41Speaker 2: to do it. But that was back when, believe it
- 12:44Speaker 2: or not, this is hard to believe. In the original
- 12:46Speaker 2: Scarborough days, he was a conservative Republican and when he
- 12:51Speaker 2: first went to MSNBC did a show every night called
- 12:54Speaker 2: Scarborough Country where he was a Republican, a conservative, a
- 12:58Speaker 2: big conservative. For years, I used to be a regular
- 13:01Speaker 2: on that show, and there came a point where he
- 13:06Speaker 2: just switched and he became a Trump hater. You could
- 13:08Speaker 2: see which way the wind was blowing profit wise, money
- 13:11Speaker 2: wise over there, and he switched. You know, this is
- 13:14Speaker 2: hard to believe, but CNN, if you got in a
- 13:17Speaker 2: time machine and went back to two thousand and five,
- 13:21Speaker 2: at CNN, the biggest show they had, Their number one
- 13:24Speaker 2: show at CNN was lou Dobbs Tonight. It was on
- 13:28Speaker 2: every night at six o'clock. I was a regular on
- 13:30Speaker 2: that show every week, Lou Dobbs. It was a very
- 13:33Speaker 2: conservative show, and he was talking about closing the border
- 13:36Speaker 2: and all that. He was like way ahead of his time.
- 13:39Speaker 2: President Trump used to watch that show every night. That's
- 13:41Speaker 2: one of the main sources for where we got a
- 13:44Speaker 2: lot of these positions. Closing the border was the main topic.
- 13:47Speaker 2: But that was CNN. Bill Hammer did the morning show
- 13:51Speaker 2: on CNN. All these Fox people used to be at CNN.
- 13:54Speaker 2: Paul and Paula's on was there. It was Larry King
- 13:58Speaker 2: Live every night at nine o'clock. And then somewhere I
- 14:01Speaker 2: forget exactly where and how it happened. They just went
- 14:04Speaker 2: crazy left wing, as did MSNBC. Hey, speaking of which
- 14:09Speaker 2: you know Apple News. They keep trying to you have
- 14:12Speaker 2: your iPhone, they keep trying to sell you Apple News,
- 14:14Speaker 2: subscribe to Apple News. Well, make sure you never ever
- 14:17Speaker 2: ever look at Apple News. It's the most distorted, slanted
- 14:21Speaker 2: partisan news site in the world. There's the Media Research
- 14:26Speaker 2: Council that actually investigates all this and studies all this.
- 14:30Speaker 2: So they did Apple News earlier last year, and they
- 14:34Speaker 2: found that Apple News only used the most left wing
- 14:38Speaker 2: partisan websites and news sources for their news. What percentage
- 14:43Speaker 2: were not left wing partisan sites? Zero zero percent. So
- 14:50Speaker 2: Apple got a lot of bad publicity about that about
- 14:52Speaker 2: six seven months ago. So they said they would do
- 14:55Speaker 2: damage control and correct it, and they switched up things.
- 15:00Speaker 2: The same group did the study again, how much of
- 15:03Speaker 2: their news is not from left wing partisan sites two percent?
- 15:10Speaker 2: They went from zero percent to so ninety eight percent
- 15:14Speaker 2: of it is now totally slanted by anos. Again, stay
- 15:17Speaker 2: the hell away from Apple News. Hey, a lot of
- 15:20Speaker 2: Hollywood is very upset with Vanity Fair. They're very very
- 15:24Speaker 2: mad at Vanity Fair for that Oscar party. You know
- 15:28Speaker 2: that that used to be the party, the Vanity Fair
- 15:30Speaker 2: Oscar Party. With this huge incredible they've had to cut
- 15:34Speaker 2: it down. The OSCARS has like ten percent of the
- 15:38Speaker 2: viewers they used to have, and they've cut down the parties.
- 15:41Speaker 2: They're half the size. But you might have seen that
- 15:45Speaker 2: what they call the red carpet. But in the case
- 15:46Speaker 2: of the Vanity Fair party, it was like light gray.
- 15:49Speaker 2: Behind them was all light gray, and all the celebrities
- 15:53Speaker 2: on that light gray carpet there, but they're all upset
- 15:57Speaker 2: because of the lighting. If you go back and look
- 15:59Speaker 2: at it, it was like the most harsh, brightest, whitest
- 16:03Speaker 2: police interrogation kind of light, you know, that brings out
- 16:06Speaker 2: every wrinkle. You just look terrible in that lighting. Usually
- 16:09Speaker 2: a red carpet, you want some flattering lighting. You don't
- 16:12Speaker 2: want any bright white lighting. You want some yellowish, pinkish
- 16:16Speaker 2: soft lighting. So Jane Fonda, even who you know, she's
- 16:20Speaker 2: eighty eight, she's eighty eight, but she's had a ton
- 16:24Speaker 2: of work done and it looks great. You know, Normally
- 16:27Speaker 2: you get that much work and you look like one
- 16:30Speaker 2: of those Buko Ratan women with the with the plastic face,
- 16:33Speaker 2: you know, like they went to a body and fender
- 16:35Speaker 2: shop or something. But she I don't know who the
- 16:37Speaker 2: plastic surgeons were on her but it looks as natural
- 16:40Speaker 2: as it can look, and she's eighty it. But even
- 16:43Speaker 2: she was upset about the lighting. So they're very very
- 16:45Speaker 2: upset about that. Hey, we got a lot to get to.
- 16:48Speaker 2: We'll take some calls. Next. Eight hundred three to two
- 16:51Speaker 2: one zero seven ten is the number. Eight hundred three
- 16:55Speaker 2: two one zero seven ten
