  Speaker 2: morning in Pittsburgh? Anyway? Thanks for calling. Let's go to
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: uh Andrew and Queen's Andrew? How you doing? Yes, yeah,
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: we didn't wake you.
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: What about that there was a black hole there?
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Oh? All right, let's go Andrew.
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I wanted to ask you. I'd recall I
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: thought decades ago during protests they used water cannons. Is
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: their problem using water cannons nowadays?
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you mean on those left wing wacos in Minnesota, Yeah, or.
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: Wherever, you know, the pro Hamas demonstrations and.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, they used to use those water cannons
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: on protesters. Now, those were good protesters back then. This
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: is in the South, in the early sixties, the canon
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: the days they were racist, protesting against black students and
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: all that. So, but it's still it looked, it looked
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: kind of it didn't look good on TV. It looked
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: kind of cruel. Though it was like a big fire hose,
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: water cannons on it. It was effective. But now they
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: use that pepper spray and mace. You've seen that on
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: a lot of videos of protesters screaming and yelling and
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: getting really really really bad with ice agents, and the
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: ice agent finally, after trying to put up with a
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: free minutes, just take out this mace thing and just
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: spray them in the face. One more call. Let's go
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: to Mike and Hawthorne. Mike, how you doing?
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Mark, I just want to know when the New
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: York City employee's going to strike, is Donnie going to
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: be walking the picket line with them.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't know. We'll get to that in the
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: next hour. This nursing strike, Mom Donnie is out there
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: on the picket line. He's out there with the nurses.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: You're not supposed to do that if you're the mayor
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: the reason this strike is dragging on. Usually it's the mayor, governor,
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: you know, somebody like that will get everybody in the
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: room and be the moderator and work out a settlement.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: The problem is Mom Donnie, immediately, being a novice, not
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: knowing how to do a management job, went right out
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: and started picketing with the nurses, which kind of makes
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: him unfit to be the honest broker in the middle.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: He's supposed to remain in the middle and try to negotiate,
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: not supposed to take a side that early. And then
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: he brought in Bernie Sanders of old people. Well, we'll
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: get to that in the next hour. We've got a
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: lot to get to. Hey, we'll talk to the Dean himself,
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: the best political analyst, Ed Rollins, about all of this
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: stuff and what's going to happen in the midterms and more.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: Coming up on seven to ten. Wor
