Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: This is seven, tor Boy, The Mark Simoon Show starts now. Ay,
- 0:10Speaker 1: well it's Thursday already. This has been a long week.
- 0:13Speaker 1: I think it's the weathers makes us a depressing, awful week. Anyway,
- 0:18Speaker 1: we got a lot to get to today. We'll get
- 0:19Speaker 1: to Alex pretty new video emerging showing what a horrible
- 0:23Speaker 1: guy this guy is. We'll get to that. We'll get
- 0:26Speaker 1: to a possible government shutdown coming very soon. We'll get
- 0:30Speaker 1: to the President what he's up to today. We'll get
- 0:32Speaker 1: to the Hall of Fame not voting Belichick in. We'll
- 0:36Speaker 1: get to the horrible antisemitic attacks that have been taking
- 0:40Speaker 1: place over the last couple of days and what's going
- 0:42Speaker 1: to be done about it. We'll get to mayor mom Donnie.
- 0:46Speaker 1: The budget crisis. Oh, I don't know. I mean, you
- 0:50Speaker 1: got a major, multi billion dollar budget crisis. Is this
- 0:55Speaker 1: kid the guy you'd want to figure it out? I
- 0:57Speaker 1: don't think so. Okay, here's the lay in Minneapolis. Tom
- 1:02Speaker 1: Holman held a press conference this morning which impressed everybody,
- 1:07Speaker 1: his tone, his content, calming the situation down. Holman has
- 1:12Speaker 1: been in Minneapolis meeting with the mayor, the governor, police chiefs.
- 1:15Speaker 1: He's got more police chiefs to meet today, and he
- 1:19Speaker 1: explained it very slowly and carefully. If a lot of
- 1:22Speaker 1: people saw this, it's going to help calm things down.
- 1:26Speaker 1: I don't know how many people saw it, but it
- 1:28Speaker 1: was broadcast live, even on CNN, even on MSNBC or
- 1:34Speaker 1: whatever the hell it's called now. Holman explaining that ICE
- 1:38Speaker 1: does this all over the country in many many cities
- 1:41Speaker 1: and many many states, and in all those places it's
- 1:44Speaker 1: done peacefully, orderly, and that's because they have the full
- 1:48Speaker 1: cooperation of the locals. And in most of those places
- 1:52Speaker 1: they have a much smaller footprint and you know, less agents,
- 1:57Speaker 1: just a smaller group. And he explained that in Minneapolis
- 2:01Speaker 1: it could have had a much, much, much smaller group
- 2:03Speaker 1: of agents there, of vice officers, but because the locals
- 2:08Speaker 1: won't cooperate, he had to send a lot more people.
- 2:11Speaker 1: In other words, and explain this carefully. If it takes
- 2:14Speaker 1: twenty guys to go do the arresting of people, you
- 2:18Speaker 1: send twenty people and that's it. If there's going to
- 2:21Speaker 1: be no police on the ground anywhere to assist, now
- 2:25Speaker 1: you've got to send another thirty or forty or fifty
- 2:28Speaker 1: to take care of crowd control. Because you're going to
- 2:31Speaker 1: get these screaming, angry, nutjob protesters. And in any situation,
- 2:36Speaker 1: the police keep the protesters on that side of the
- 2:39Speaker 1: street where they're free to yell and wave their signs
- 2:44Speaker 1: and blow their whistles. But if you take the police
- 2:47Speaker 1: away and the barricades away, nothing stops the protesters for
- 2:50Speaker 1: just going physically after the law enforcement and confronting them.
- 2:55Speaker 1: That's what happened on January sixth. If they had done
- 2:58Speaker 1: what the President said, the ten thousand troops guarding the capitol,
- 3:03Speaker 1: the protesters would have been held way back, would have
- 3:05Speaker 1: never gotten anywhere near the capitol. But without any of
- 3:08Speaker 1: the troops, you just had the building security guys there.
- 3:11Speaker 1: The capitol police, you know, they're not trained for controlling
- 3:15Speaker 1: a mob of four hundred thousand people. So protesters were
- 3:20Speaker 1: able to get into the capitol, overrun the place, physically
- 3:23Speaker 1: confront the law enforcement. That's when you have disaster, and
- 3:26Speaker 1: that's what happened in Minneapolis. They deliberately withdrew all the police.
- 3:30Speaker 1: These guys. Ice guys were alone on the street confronted
- 3:34Speaker 1: physically by the mob. So it's home and explained they're
- 3:37Speaker 1: going to have to have the local police step in
- 3:40Speaker 1: control the protesting, keep it peaceful, keep it nonviolent. So,
- 3:46Speaker 1: in other words, protesters can't drive their car into an officer,
- 3:50Speaker 1: they can't wrestle with an officer, they can't physically confront them.
- 3:54Speaker 1: Now new videos come out of pretty which is pretty shocking.
- 3:58Speaker 1: You know, the media spent two three days explaining to
- 4:01Speaker 1: you he's a gentleman, he's a nurse, he treats people,
- 4:06Speaker 1: he's a carrying, gentle sweet nurse. Well, this new video
- 4:11Speaker 1: makes him look like a raging nutjob. If you didn't
- 4:16Speaker 1: know anything about this incident, if somebody just showed you
- 4:18Speaker 1: this video and say, hey, look at here's a road
- 4:19Speaker 1: rage incident, you'd think this guy should be in a
- 4:22Speaker 1: mental institution. He's driving by, he sees ice officers arresting somebody,
- 4:29Speaker 1: so he stops his car, slams on the brinks, jumps out,
- 4:33Speaker 1: starts calling him all kinds of names. I think if
- 4:35Speaker 1: you go to my Twitter, you can find the one
- 4:36Speaker 1: with the audio. We can't play it on the air
- 4:39Speaker 1: because it's all F mother, F this, mother, F that,
- 4:43Speaker 1: and he's screaming at the police, come on, arrest me,
- 4:45Speaker 1: assault me, you mother. It's really vile. Can't play it
- 4:49Speaker 1: on the air. But he then goes after their car,
- 4:57Speaker 1: the ice vehicle. He starts a firsty, he spits at
- 5:00Speaker 1: the ice officer, he spits at the vehicle. Then he
- 5:03Speaker 1: starts kicking the vehicle. And I got to give him credit,
- 5:06Speaker 1: he's pretty good at that kicking, because he kicked it
- 5:08Speaker 1: hard enough to completely destroy the tail light. Not just
- 5:12Speaker 1: smash the glass on it, but he knocked the whole
- 5:14Speaker 1: everything out of the car, leaving a big hole in
- 5:17Speaker 1: the back of the car. Again on my Twitter you
- 5:19Speaker 1: can see the video. So he's damaged this car. Now
- 5:22Speaker 1: it's undriveable, no tail light and a big hole in
- 5:26Speaker 1: the back. And the officers now stop, get him out.
- 5:29Speaker 1: They wrestle him to the ground, and I don't know why,
- 5:33Speaker 1: but they didn't arrest him. He committed a terrible crime there,
- 5:36Speaker 1: vandalizing this vehicle, but they didn't arrest him. They let
- 5:40Speaker 1: him go. They diffused the situation. They were very surprisingly tolerant.
- 5:46Speaker 1: They let him go. They should have arrested him there.
- 5:49Speaker 1: They should have arrested him and had him locked up.
- 5:51Speaker 1: Maybe that way his life would be saved, because he
- 5:53Speaker 1: wouldn't be back on the street to do this. Stuff.
- 5:56Speaker 1: So he's a very violent, out of control, raging sort
- 6:01Speaker 1: of a guy. The videos are all over the place. Now,
- 6:03Speaker 1: you know the shooting video, you've seen that a million
- 6:06Speaker 1: times on mainstream news. But this video of him raging
- 6:10Speaker 1: out of control damaging the vehicle, of course you don't see.
- 6:13Speaker 1: You see that once and then they don't show it again. Now,
- 6:16Speaker 1: Holman also explained this Ice operation, it's perfectly legal. In fact,
- 6:20Speaker 1: it's an operation to enforce the law, and Holman pointing
- 6:25Speaker 1: out it's what America voted for. America voted for this,
- 6:29Speaker 1: to have the illegals rounded up and taken out removed,
- 6:33Speaker 1: especially the criminal ones. America voted for this. This is
- 6:36Speaker 1: what they're doing. So it was a pretty good press conference.
- 6:42Speaker 1: You'll see it throughout the day today. There's a cabinet
- 6:45Speaker 1: meeting a little later. This couple hours, President will hold
- 6:49Speaker 1: a cabinet meeting. I'm sure he'll go on at length
- 6:51Speaker 1: about all this. Everybody's gonna be looking to see where
- 6:55Speaker 1: Christy nom is in the cabinet meeting, if she gets
- 6:57Speaker 1: to speak, and if the President as he goes around
- 7:00Speaker 1: on the room, defends her, she's under fire right now.
- 7:03Speaker 1: A lot of people calling for her to be fired.
- 7:06Speaker 1: She's been sidelined. Knowing the president when Hexath was in
- 7:09Speaker 1: a lot of trouble there, he'll probably do the same thing.
- 7:12Speaker 1: You'll praise him, give him praise, give them a pat
- 7:14Speaker 1: on the back, but keep him quiet. Now there's a
- 7:19Speaker 1: lot going on. There's the talk of a shutdown, maybe
- 7:22Speaker 1: this weekend, maybe Monday. The good thing is the snowstorm
- 7:25Speaker 1: has affected Washington, d C. In a lot of places,
- 7:28Speaker 1: so most of these congress people cannot get back to
- 7:31Speaker 1: Washington or don't want to get back to Washington, so
- 7:33Speaker 1: that made delay things. The shutdown would be over ICE,
- 7:38Speaker 1: defunding ICE, defunding Homeland Security. Now you can't really do
- 7:41Speaker 1: that because if you defund homeland security, that's a lot
- 7:44Speaker 1: of other things. That's the TSA. There's too many things
- 7:48Speaker 1: in there. You can't just defund it. So they'll fight
- 7:50Speaker 1: about certain things. You'll see Schumer with the glasses no
- 7:55Speaker 1: longer the Ben Franklin glasses now the big swifty Lazar glasses,
- 7:59Speaker 1: the big Kent glasses, and you know he gets all esteemed.
- 8:03Speaker 1: It's the video of him yesterday, of the day before,
- 8:06Speaker 1: using the F word, trying to sound tough, but it's
- 8:09Speaker 1: great to wait. He gets all riled up. The glasses
- 8:12Speaker 1: are fogging up. Here's Schumer yesterday.
- 8:14Speaker 2: But we also realized that this puts our democracy at risk.
- 8:19Speaker 2: It's a force of thuggery. The federal government is supporting
- 8:23Speaker 2: a large force of thuggery. Can we really worry about
- 8:27Speaker 2: its consequences for America if we don't rain them in.
- 8:30Speaker 1: This guy is the worst actor ever. You can give
- 8:32Speaker 1: him any dialogue and he can make it boring anything,
- 8:36Speaker 1: and he could put you asleep. So they'll fight about
- 8:39Speaker 1: things with to avoid the shutdown. They'll fight about ice
- 8:43Speaker 1: and changes, big changes. Now. One of the things democrats
- 8:47Speaker 1: want is no masks. They have to take the masks off.
- 8:50Speaker 1: Now that's probably not going to happen. There's a compromise
- 8:52Speaker 1: the government has proposed. They'll keep the mask, but each
- 8:55Speaker 1: one will have a number on them, an identifying number.
- 8:58Speaker 1: So if you want to report for anything, you just
- 9:01Speaker 1: give the number and the government can look up exactly
- 9:04Speaker 1: who the guy is. The reason for the masks is
- 9:07Speaker 1: these crazy lunatics. If they can see the face, we'll
- 9:11Speaker 1: try to identify the person and they go terrorize their
- 9:14Speaker 1: family in their homes. So that's the reason for the masks.
- 9:19Speaker 1: Stephen Colbert shocked a lot of people last night making
- 9:24Speaker 1: a joke about He started talking about you, you know, calling
- 9:28Speaker 1: these people Nazis, calling them Nazis, and he played clips
- 9:31Speaker 1: of everybody calling them Nazis, and then Colbert said something
- 9:33Speaker 1: to the effect of, that's wrong to compare them the Nazis.
- 9:38Speaker 1: The Nazis didn't wear a mask. Give the Nazis credit.
- 9:41Speaker 1: They didn't wear a mask. They showed their faces. In
- 9:43Speaker 1: other words, he was praising the Nazis over Ice, which
- 9:47Speaker 1: is horrible, horrible thing to say. It's trivializing the Holocaust.
- 9:53Speaker 1: It's praising the Nazis. It's given them credit for something,
- 9:57Speaker 1: and trivializing the Holocaust is always a sign of real
- 10:00Speaker 1: serious anti Semitism. Colbert getting a lot of backlash. He's
- 10:04Speaker 1: already fired, so there's not much they can do to him.
- 10:07Speaker 1: Speaking of anti Semitism, We've had a couple of horrible,
- 10:10Speaker 1: horrible incidents in the last couple of days. There was
- 10:14Speaker 1: a rabbi walking down the street wearing a Yamaica and
- 10:19Speaker 1: a guy comes up and starts screaming the worst anti
- 10:22Speaker 1: semitic and then attacks the rabbi knocks him the ground,
- 10:26Speaker 1: beats him up. Here's the rabbit.
- 10:27Speaker 3: I just said, it cannot happen like this. I must
- 10:31Speaker 3: fight back, and I just give him back. And I
- 10:33Speaker 3: found myself into a fight. I never you know, I'm
- 10:36Speaker 3: not a fight I a rabbi. And they found myself
- 10:40Speaker 3: walling in the floor, in the snow, getting.
- 10:43Speaker 1: Punched in horrible, horrible incident. And then in the Hubbad Center,
- 10:47Speaker 1: the Lubavic Center in Brooklyn, Crown Heights, Brooklyn, attacked by
- 10:51Speaker 1: a guy in a car at the entrance. He comes up,
- 10:57Speaker 1: he said, I he' driving up to the entrance. Then he
- 10:58Speaker 1: tries to drive through it, smash it. Then he pulls
- 11:00Speaker 1: his car back and then goes forward again, trying to
- 11:04Speaker 1: smash it over and over and over again. A lot
- 11:06Speaker 1: of police patrolling that center, and luckily they were close by.
- 11:10Speaker 1: They got the guy, pulled him out of the car.
- 11:13Speaker 1: Here's a news report. Yes, this is a witness.
- 11:15Speaker 4: He's yelling at the boys to move out the way
- 11:18Speaker 4: as they were standing in the driveway, and he pulls
- 11:21Speaker 4: his car in and then he starts ramming the building,
- 11:25Speaker 4: driving in, reversing, driving in again, just driving in and out.
- 11:28Speaker 4: Did it about five times straight away. Boys ran to
- 11:30Speaker 4: there's a police unit parked outside the main entrance to
- 11:33Speaker 4: the building, and round the police came and pulled him
- 11:37Speaker 4: out of the car, arrested him. It was about six
- 11:39Speaker 4: foot long. Care He was just in his wearing a shirt,
- 11:42Speaker 4: but just underwear.
- 11:45Speaker 1: Yeah. Cold, it was yesterday. It was a windchill minus six.
- 11:50Speaker 1: He's just in this underwear. So obviously a raging nut
- 11:54Speaker 1: anti Semite. Something's got to be done about this. It's
- 11:56Speaker 1: out of control. You know, you always hear about the
- 12:00Speaker 1: Muslim community. I checked with the police officials. There's no
- 12:03Speaker 1: attacks anywhere on the Muslim community. It's all anti Semitic attacks,
- 12:07Speaker 1: all anti Semitic attacks all over in New York. It's
- 12:11Speaker 1: got to stop. The Police Commissioner held a press conference
- 12:14Speaker 1: denouncing all this and announcing the arrest, and Mam Donnie
- 12:17Speaker 1: stood with her and then spoke about the horrible anti
- 12:20Speaker 1: semitism and his tone was right, his words were right.
- 12:23Speaker 1: Let's hope he meant it. Here's the good news. We
- 12:26Speaker 1: have a new City Council speaker who runs the City council,
- 12:31Speaker 1: Speaker of the City Council, and that's a very big job.
- 12:33Speaker 1: The city council speaker has as much power as a
- 12:37Speaker 1: mayor in doing things in New York. Well, the new
- 12:40Speaker 1: City Council speaker, Julie Menin, we had a luncheon for
- 12:43Speaker 1: her yesterday. I talked to her yesterday. She's great. Julie Menin,
- 12:47Speaker 1: new City council speaker, the first Jewish I believe, I
- 12:51Speaker 1: think Jewish city council speaker. And she has already announced
- 12:56Speaker 1: she's forming an anti Semitism task force the city Council
- 13:00Speaker 1: will have. They'll have a lot of power to do
- 13:01Speaker 1: things all over the city about anti Semitism, including holding
- 13:06Speaker 1: hearings and holding people accountable. So that's the goodness. And
- 13:09Speaker 1: she's a she's a Democrat, but she's a very very
- 13:12Speaker 1: moderate conservative Democrat, very common sense. So whatever whatever Mom
- 13:18Speaker 1: Donnie tries to do, she can help counter it. So
- 13:21Speaker 1: you got some balance there. It's very important to remember
- 13:23Speaker 1: you got a city council speaker who's the opposite of
- 13:26Speaker 1: Mom Donnie. Hey, Bill Belichick, it's not getting to the
- 13:30Speaker 1: Hall of Fame. Everybody yelling and screaming about it. Some
- 13:33Speaker 1: major names are now not coming to the ceremony as
- 13:37Speaker 1: a result of Belichick being snubbed. Tom Brady can't believe it.
- 13:42Speaker 4: I don't understand it.
- 13:43Speaker 3: I mean, I was with them every day.
- 13:45Speaker 1: If he's not a first ball Hall of Famer, there's
- 13:47Speaker 1: really no coach that should ever be. Yeah, now, if
- 13:50Speaker 1: you win six Super Bowls and you can't get in,
- 13:53Speaker 1: what the hell do you have to do to get in? Now?
- 13:55Speaker 1: Some people say, what would what would be the reason
- 13:57Speaker 1: they would snubb? Some say, well, the cheating. Okay, there
- 14:02Speaker 1: was some cheating with the Patriots, stealing signals, playing around
- 14:05Speaker 1: with the inflation on the ball, that kind of stuff.
- 14:07Speaker 1: But I'm sure it happens all over the place. But
- 14:11Speaker 1: they think that might be the reason.
- 14:12Speaker 3: They didn't think that someone who had run a year's
- 14:15Speaker 3: long cheating operation should get into the Hall of.
- 14:18Speaker 1: Fame in his first year of eligibility. I don't know.
- 14:23Speaker 1: I don't know. Without the cheating, they would do just fine. Hey,
- 14:26Speaker 1: Jimmy Johnson says he's not coming to the ceremony. Had
- 14:29Speaker 1: chartered a plane he was going to go there. He said,
- 14:32Speaker 1: to hell with it, I'm not going this year. Belichick
- 14:35Speaker 1: should have been automatic. So hey, Sunday, there's a chance
- 14:40Speaker 1: of what they call a bomb cyclone. This is snow now,
- 14:45Speaker 1: it's probably not that bad snow wise. At the worst
- 14:48Speaker 1: it will be about three inches. There's two different models,
- 14:51Speaker 1: so this could change, but the current trajectory shows it
- 14:56Speaker 1: kind of missing most of us. It's going to hit
- 14:59Speaker 1: eastern Long Island may be hard, and maybe the Jersey Shore,
- 15:04Speaker 1: but in the city, west Chester, Fairfield County, NASA County
- 15:08Speaker 1: won't be as bad. But in other words, we might
- 15:12Speaker 1: get one to three inches and on the other places
- 15:14Speaker 1: maybe over three. But it's called a bomb cyclone. What
- 15:17Speaker 1: that means is it's fast and furious. It's not like
- 15:21Speaker 1: last weekend where it snows for you know, nineteen hours.
- 15:25Speaker 1: This is like two three hours of this ferocious snow
- 15:28Speaker 1: and it all comes at once, and it comes with
- 15:31Speaker 1: very fast, heavy winds. So that's why they call it
- 15:34Speaker 1: a bomb cyclone. Keep an eye on this. It could
- 15:36Speaker 1: be this Sunday now, then after that Monday Tuesday, it
- 15:40Speaker 1: looks like it get lay up to thirty two maybe
- 15:43Speaker 1: slightly above freezing. You might start melting some of the snow.
- 15:46Speaker 1: There are snow melters. They started to bring those into
- 15:48Speaker 1: the city, where you plow up the snow and dump
- 15:51Speaker 1: it in the melter and it turns it into water
- 15:53Speaker 1: and goes down the drain. But anyway, we got a
- 15:56Speaker 1: lot to get to. Oh, don't go away. We'll get
- 15:57Speaker 1: to Bruce Springsteen and many Apolis. He's come up with
- 16:01Speaker 1: a song you gotta hear this ridiculous. Anyway, we'll get
- 16:04Speaker 1: to that coming up. We'll take some calls next. Eight
- 16:06Speaker 1: hundred three two one zero seven ten is the number.
- 16:10Speaker 1: Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.
