  Speaker 1: Always this step ahead of the news. Here's more Marks
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: amone on seven to tenoo Hey, it's almost Memorial Day weekend.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: It's coming up this weekend. It's the beginning of summer
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: for most people. It's going to be this heat will
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: continue until about eight o'clock tomorrow night, but then it
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: goes into the sixties for the whole weekend. Looks like
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: rain Saturday and Sunday, but still be a great weekend.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Good things happening this week. Stephen Colbert will go off
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: the air Thursday night. That'll be it for him, the
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: show canceled, and he will in interviews or on the
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: show itself make it sound like he was pushed off
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: the air. It was pressure from the Trump administration. CBS
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: fired him, pressure from the Trumpet well, of course. So
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: it's a little kind of ridiculous to claim when you're
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: a disaster ratings wise, and you're losing forty to fifty
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: million a year, it doesn't take much pressure to get
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: a show canceled. That's losing up to fifty million a year.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: It's been a total failure revenue wise. Ratings wise, you
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: could say, oh, it beats Kimmel. That's only because Kimmel
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: has the most pathetic ratings in the world. Jimmy Fallon
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: took the Tonight Show down to like one million viewers.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: Greg Goettfeld three million viewers easily. Jimmy Fayala Saturday Night
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: his late night show. I'm sure beats that he's going
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: to do some weird shows to end his run. Last
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: night was kind of a strange show. It looked like
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: the normal show. You know, the announcer starts, and then
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: for guests, they didn't really have any games, like one
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: guest who they were not, we're all the guests, and
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: then they introduced him and he comes out like usual
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: and they show the audience. It's like, you know, three
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: hundred people in the audience and they're all standing, and
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: he had a little problem. They wouldn't stop applauding or
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: give him a standing ovation keeps you know, please sit
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: down and sit down, please sit down. It took a while.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: They finally sit down these three hundred something people, and
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: then he announces it's not the regular audience. These are
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: all staff members on the show. These people all work
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: on the show. Now you know why he's getting fired.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: Now you know how he lost fifty millionaire there's three
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: hundred people that work on the show. It was absolutely ridiculous.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Let's say they all brought a spouse, so that's one
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: hundred and fifty people. It was more than three hundred,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: so it's like one hundred and seventy five people working
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: on this show. That's how you lose fifty millionaire. If
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: you're the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson way back when
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: and you got thirty million viewers, you could afford to
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: have one hundred and fifty people. If you're this guy
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: with one million viewers, you can't afford that. You're gonna
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: lose a fortune. Gottfeld has triple the ratings and the
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: whole staff is twelve people. That's it. There's no band,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: it's twelve people. It's four chairs. That's the show called
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: bear massive theater, big or three hundred and fifty people
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: in the audience every night, which means you need all
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: the ushers and all that stuff. So all these people
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: work there. And then he announced he's not gonna the
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: reason they weren't a lot of guests, they weren't going
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: to do a regular show. They were going to do
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: not a best of they were going to do a
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: worst of they do these pre tape pieces and things
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: like that, and they decided they would show you all
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: the ones that never got on the air. Now, the
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: reason they never got on the air is they weren't
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: that funny. They stunk, And so it was a whole
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: hour and an hour show of bad things that never
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: got on the air. It's like when they re released
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: the album with the missing cuts. They weren't missing, they
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: just weren't that good. That's what the unreleased cut. There
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: was a reason they were unreleased. It wasn't that good.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: So the final show is Thursday night. They're gonna do
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: one final show. There'll be a big rap pardon not
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: like music rap, I mean like wrap it up kind
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: of party after the show. They've told all the people
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: have invited, They've sent out invitations to it, and they're
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: gonna keep announcing all kinds of big surprise guests will
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: be on the show Thursday night, major major Nate surprise guests.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Our sources have come up with some of them. Paul
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: McCartney will be one of them. Billy Joel will be
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: one of them. Now, Billy Joel's not been well lately.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: He said a lot of problems will be interesting to
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: see him in an interview. Apparently is well enough to
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: do this. Paul McCartney, both both these guys have been
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: on the Clbert plenty of times. They've been on Everything
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: plenty of times. They've been on They were on Kimmel
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: a million, they were on Fallon a million times. So,
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Paul McCartney, the significance there is, of course, the Beatles
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: made their American debut right in that building, right in
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: the Ed Sullivan Theater. But if you go on YouTube
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: you can see it's Letterman. Letterman had Paul McCartney back
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: and they talked really in depth about the Ed Sullivan Theater,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: and then McCartney and Letterman went on a tour behind
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: the scenes, backstage, the dressing rooms downstairs, to take a
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: look at all the things in the Ed Sullivan Theater
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: that McCartney remembered the first time around. I used to
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: do shows in the Ed Sullivan Theater before it became
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: the Letterman Theater. It was just an independent TV studio.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: You could rent it for all kinds of things, so
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: there are a number of TV shows done there and
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: going around. This was before Letterman totally gutted it, renovated
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: it at CBS spent millions before that. It was like
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: the original Ed Sullivan Theater, and a lot of the
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: guys working there had been there for a million years
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: and would tell you about the Ed Sullivan days, you know,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: so glamorous that show. They would tell you how there
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: were rats backstage and how pipes were like crumbling everywhere.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: It was apparently a mess back then. But it's significant
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: to Paul McCartney and for Billy Joel. He's like the
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: huge Beatles fan, so it'll be significant to him. So
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: that'll be the goodbye tonight, and then hopefully you'll never
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: have to see this guy again. Now here's the interesting part.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: Not only is the show a total failure, Colbert, not
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: only does it lose fifty million a year. The cancelation
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: was announced like eight months ago. Still nobody has offered
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: him another show. Nobody, no streaming company, no network, nobody
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: has offered him another show. It's been eight months now, silence.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: His only job he is going to write is it
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: The Hobbit the movie. He's writing the screenplay for that.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: But apparently he had a good idea for it, and
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: it was a project he pitched like a year ago.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: So that was already in the works, but outside it
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: from that, nobody has offered him a job. What will
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: he do? Well, he'll work on this screenplay when he
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: gets done, and then when it's finished and the movie's
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: coming out, although that could take a while. But once
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: that's he'll run around doing a million interviews, MSNBC, CNN,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: all that sort of stuff. Outside of that, I don't
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: know what else he'll do. He'll probably he could do
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: his own Instagram, YouTube channel release stuff all the time,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: but he'll be on his own pretty much. You know,
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: the show, he's got like fourteen writers writing all that
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: stuff for him on his own. I don't think he's
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: I don't think there's anything there. You know. It's not
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: like the other hosts, where, you know, Carson writers would
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: write a mad libs and write the jokes, but he
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: could add lib like crazy. I've never seen an actual
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: Stephen Colbert ad lib that was actually funny. So I
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: don't know what he's going to do after that. Going
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: to be tough for him. Hey, the border, the US
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: border border crossings are so low right now, they keep
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: track of all this. Fewer illegals are crossing the border
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: in one month now, then in one hour during the
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Biden administration. It's hard to believe, but it's been twelve
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: straight eight months, and the catch and release you know
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: where they could come across the border in a catch
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: and release them. It's been zero for twelve months, no
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: catching release for twelve months. That's pretty amazing. The lowest
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: level of crossing since the nineties. Catching release is over.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: You know, back in the Biden days, the catch and
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: release was sometimes three hundred people an hour, three hundred
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: an hour, that's unbelievable. Three hundred every hour. It ended
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: up being like a million and a half a year.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: It's down to zero. Pretty amazing for the Trump administration. Hey,
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: the big announcement that happened over the weekend and we
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: talked about it yesterday. The climate change hoax is pretty
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: much over. It was all orchestrated, and I mean Democrats
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: and a lot of crazy left wingers all jumped on it.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: But the body that ruled on climate change was the
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: United Nations International Panel on Climate Change. That was the
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: official body that ran this whole hoax. And this is
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: where you got all the scenarios about the world's going
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: to overheat and burn up, and the ocean's are going
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: to rise up, and the glacier is going to be gone,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: and all that stuff. Well, quietly over the weekend they
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: announced that those predictions are incorrect. That they said, they now,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: for this century say that all those predictions are implausible,
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: which means impossible. They were depending on scientists, questionable scientists,
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: left wing scientists who depended on grants and where I'm
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: sure there were other reasons, but they were ginning all
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: this up to get more grants. But the official body
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: that rules this whole climate change hoax actually says all
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: these theories, all these predictions, all the stuff is no
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: longer valid. It is now they use the word implausible,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: which means impossible. But people are starting to look back
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: on this. President Trump called it the biggest con job
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: in history. People are starting to study this whole thing now.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: Apparently it cost trillions of dollars in damage to countries
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: all over. The economic damage is incalculable. Hundreds and hundreds
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: of billions, actually trillions were wasted worldwide on fake green
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: scheme programs, on forcing businesses to adopt all kinds of regulations.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: It drove the price of everything up. You know, one
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: recent gas cars everything went up, all the regulations put
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: on them because of climate change. It destroyed the New
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: York economy. It caused crazy left wing governor Andrew Cuomo
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: to ban fracking. You know, we're sitting on a ton
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: of natural gas. Our energy costs would have been one
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: tenth of what they are now if he had not
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: banned fracking. He shut down Indian Point. That tripled everybody's
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: electric bill right there. In fact, all the getting rid
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: of all the fossil fuel. And then it also hurt
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: the environment. Believe it or not, this whole green movement
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: hurt the environment as we shifted to wind, solar and
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: all that crap. The wind farms did more environmental damage
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: than anything. I mean, they were just awful on the environment.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: And whenever that's one reason, you know, when they wanted
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: to do it in the Cape or anywhere near left
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: wingers or of Kennedy's, they would ban the windmills because
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: you don't just stick the windmill in the ground. You
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: have to go like a half mile out in every
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: direction and just tear up the ground and fill it
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: with concrete. And you know it's forever. You can never
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: get rid of that. You destroy your coastline. The blades
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: on a windmill are so big. The blades are the
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: size of the Washington Monument and they're fiberglass. They are
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: a nightmare to dispose of. You got to change them
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: every year. So disposing of the old blades was far
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: worse than trying to get rid of a nuclear waste.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: So it was terrible for the environment. It produced absolutely
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: no power that was I mean any fraction of what
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: we needed. You remember in Europe they went solar power, wind power,
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: and then about two years later had to tear it
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: all down. It just wouldn't work. There was never enough wind.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: So hey the Knicks tonight, big, big, big, big game tonight.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: Now James Dolan Madison Square Garden has announced. You know
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: there's always talk would you sell the Knicks, would you
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: sell the Rangers. Well, he's announced both the Knicks and
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: the Rangers will split up. Each of them will become
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: separate public companies, which means it'll be a stock you
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: can buy. So that's kind of like selling him. It's
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: actually a smarter way for him because what he's gonna
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: do make it a public company you can buy stock.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: They'll each be a separate public company, but the Forbes
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: thinks the Knicks will be worth about ten billion, ten billion,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: even the Rangers four billion. This that's fourteen billion they'll
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: take in right there. It's a way to kind of
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: very safely get rid of the Knicks and the Rangers
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: and sell them pretty good deal. Madison Square Garden stock
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: itself soared as a result. Hey, mayor's crazy mayor, Mom
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: Donnie anti Semitic, mayor, Mom Donnie anti Israel. I mean,
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: you talk about racism and bigotry. This is it to
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: be that anti semitic, to be against a group, This
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: kind of discrimination we've never seen from a public official.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: But he's not going to go to the Israel Israel
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Day parade, which is awful. But he also commemorated a
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: Knakba Day, which a lot of us have never heard of.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: Knack Bud Day. The real anti Semits of the world,
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: the real anti Semitic, anti Israel people celebrate this Knakba Day.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: What it is, It's the day in nineteen forty eight
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: where Israel was created. But Knakba Day is an anti
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: Israel day. It's supposedly commemorate how awful what happened to
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: the Palestinians were, how disgusting it was they were displaced
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: from their land, How evil Israel was when it was created.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: The creation of Israel was evil, awful. This is what
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: knak Badet is all about. It's a horrible thing. But
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: for Mayor mont Donnie to actually put out a video
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: commemorating this awful thing, it is about as anti Semitic
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: as you can get. Now, these Nakbadet people just take
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: everything out of a context. They make it sound like
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: nineteen forty eight was the most awful, evil thing ever
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: done throwing the Palestinian They just totally ignore the real facts.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: It was. Israel was created by the United Nations. It
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: was a partition plan. All the countries participated in it.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: The Arab rejection of it was the reason many Palestinians left.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: They weren't thrown out of anywhere. But this is the dirty,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: dirty racism of Mamdani and a lot of Democrats unfortunately.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: Now I just want to mention this again. Tuesday night,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: a lot of people are going to this big rally
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Tuesday night outside of Gracie Mansion. It's to fight the
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: anti Semitism. Seven pm Tuesday night, May twenty sixth, being
• 15:10
