  Speaker 1: This is seven to ten R Boy, The Mark Simoon
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Show starts. Now, Hey, it's Friday. We've got through the week.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: We got a lot to get to. Today, we'll get
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: to the loss of our great friend, the beloved Ernie
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: and ASTs we'll talk about him. We'll get to we'll
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: give you the very latest on the war in a
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: couple of minutes. We'll get to the save act that,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: we'll get to crazy Mom, Donnie, he's doing even more
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: crazy stuff. Speaking of crazy, that sheriff in the Nancy
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: Guthrie case sounding a little nuts and a little suspicious.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: We'll get to all of that coming up, and let's
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: get you the latest on the war. Iran's new leader,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: son of the Iahtola, the new Iahtola, is now believed
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: to be not only wounded we kept saying as a
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: facial lacerations, it's now believed he's probably disfigured. In fact,
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Secretary Hexath on camera this morning, daring him to appear
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: on camera and let's see what he looks like. We
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: know he lost a leg, we know he's been in
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: a coma, severe facial lacerations, but Hexith saying and he
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: would have more intelligence on this than anybody that he
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: has disfigured, and that's why written statements are coming out,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: and he has not spoken publicly about anything. So we'll
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: see what happens with that. Straits of horm Moose will
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: probably get reopened, probably next week. The attacks on these
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: tankers are done in two ways. One by drones which
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: are unmanned and can be directed from far away drones
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: with explosives. And the other thing is these speedboats loaded
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: with explosives that hit the tanker. Those are also unmanned
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: and like a drone, can be controlled from many miles away.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: So you got to get rid of all this stuff.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: They're getting rid of those speedboats one by one. You
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: just got to take them all out. As far as drones,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: and these are the most dangerous. Missiles are easier to
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: blow up stop because we can see the launchers, we
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: can see where they're launched from. We've taken out ninety
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: percent of the missiles. Ninety percent of the missiles are gone.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Drones are tougher because you can't see them. They might
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: be hidden in a basement in a garage until they're
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: suddenly pulled out. But it's believed we've taken out ninety
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: five percent of their drones ran. Yesterday released a picture,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: a photograph of a warehouse that they had filled with
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: the state of the art drones, hundreds and hundreds of
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: drones in this warehouse. They released the pictures, I guess
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: to intimidate us, but they're probably not thinking in the
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: pictures that they released. There's probably some tags in there,
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: meta tags data somewhere in the pictures that might give
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: a hint as to where they're located. So not too
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: smart on their part. Now, you've got to remember something
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: at the end of a war, at the end of
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: a war, casualties go way way up. Always at the
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: end of the war with Japan, in the last few
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: weeks they went crazy fighting back. It's a last dying breath,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: last gasp, and they killed more Americans in those last
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: couple of weeks. Something happened in Afghanistan. So when you
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: see it ramping up, when you see more returned fire,
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: more cast that, that's when you know they're in their
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: last throws and dying. We lost four servicemen yesterday. Now
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: this was not in a combat or fire or friendly fire.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: It was a refueling plane that crashed, not in Iran,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: but in Iraq. They still haven't figured out what caused
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: the crash, but we lost four people. They would bring
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: it up to about ten service people lost in the
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: last few weeks, which is horrible. But you also have
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: to remember, and people aren't aware of this, we lose
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: a lot of servicemen and women without war, just in
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: training accidents, about thirty five a year. It's like three
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: a month that we lose. It happens all the time
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: with war without war, but it's just just terrible. They're
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: less launches every day of missiles and all that stuff.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: They are have been st the president. We don't know
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: what it is, but he is talking about unleashing weapons
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: on Iran that nobody has seen yet. He did that
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: in Venezuela with those combobulator bombs that just made everybody
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: paralyzed instantly. So there's apparently some stuff they're gonna unleash
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: at any point in Iran. And yesterday, it was last
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: night on X and Twitter that he made that statement.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: That's got everybody upset. Now, you got to remember, people
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: that hate the president, they go nuts when he says
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: these crazy things. People that love the president back what
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: he's doing. But then sometimes he'll say something and they'll go,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: oh God, why does he have to talk like that?
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Why does he have to say things like that? Well,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: that's the way he is. He will shoot his mouth off.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: He's not a politician. He's totally unfiltered. He will say
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: things you're not supposed to say. He'll talk in away
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: you're not supposed to talk. But is the great New
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: York legend Robert Morgenthaw, who was one of the smartest
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: guys I ever knew. And we were all together, Donald Trump,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: Robert Morganhal, myself, and a whole bunch of people. And
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: when he'd leave the room, Trump would leave the room.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Sometimes people would say to Morgan, thought, what is it
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: with that? Why does he have to work? And Morganhal
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: would always say, and you should always remember this rule
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: he goes when it comes to Donald. Never listen to
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: what he says. Just watch what he does. And it's
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: a good rule. Don't pay attention to anything he says.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: Just watch what he does. And if you look back
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: on his track record, he gets it done, He gets results,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: He accomplishes things nobody ever thought would get accomplished. We
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: were talking about yesterday. Every president and politician for fifty
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: years promised to end our dependency on foreign oil. He
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: actually got it done. He did it, so he'll get
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: it done now. The other thing is you got what
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: they call the pannikins as opposed to Republicans Pannicans who
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: panic every time you were in the middle of something.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: You remember when the terriffs were first announced and the
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: stock market plunged a billion points in five seconds and
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: everybody was panicking. Well, it not only came right back
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: two weeks later, but it went to all time highs.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: It set new records. So it's the same thing here.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Oil prices will spike. Straits of her moose are closed.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: This has happened before with the straits of her moose.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of times in the past during wars,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: during the Gulf War, during the Iraq War, during this
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: war where you couldn't get through the straits of her
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: Moose and ships were being attacked and ended up needing
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: the navy escort. This has happened before. So you'll see
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: this spike and it'll all get resolved and it'll spike
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: will go away. Not only will oil prices come down,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: they'll hit all time lows. After all of This is
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: over to another rule to remember, don't follow the big
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Washington experts or the media experts when they tell you
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: about Trump. In fact a good rule. A lot of
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: gamblers have figured this out. Whatever the experts tell you,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: bet against them. Whatever Trump tells you to bet with them.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: Don't go with the experts. And what they tell you
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: is going to happen, it won't happen. Now, there is
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: an island called Carg Island. It's a little island, but
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: it contains almost all of the oil refinery, supplies, all
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: the tanks of Iran. Carg Island is like ninety two
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: percent of the oil export capability of Iran. Everything is
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: on Carg Island. We have not hit it. That's a final, absolute,
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: last straw. If we had to. If we took out
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: carg Island, that is the end of Iran as far
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: as their economy. It would completely devastate their economy for decades.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: So we haven't hit it. We could also seize it
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: and try to just take it from them, or we
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: could also just blow it up and that's the end
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: of any hope of an economy ever ever coming back
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: in Iran. So kind of crazy that they put everything
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: on that one island, but the president at some point
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: will threaten him with carg Island if they don't get
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: a new regime. The crazy thing he said today was
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: as she was. Last night he put out a tweet
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: that Iran was threatening us again, and then he said
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: on Twitter, this is in writing, way do you see
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: what they get hit with tomorrow? And his exact words were, way,
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: do you see what we do to these deranged scumbags tomorrow.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: You're not supposed to talk like that when you're a president.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: I think the reason for it was, you know, these
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: old deep state guys, these Washington swamp people, they're all
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: yelling and scrubage. The messaging is wrong. He's got to
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: have the right messaging. You really don't. You can have confused,
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: contradictory messaging. It's actually a great idea because it just
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: confuses the enemy. You don't want clear messaging because then
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: the enemy knows where you are, what you're going to do.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: And when they say, well, he hasn't explained the purpose
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: that you don't need to explain the purpose of this.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: You're talking about the Iotola, biggest terrorist in the world
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: with his death to America. Teach shirt funding Hesbala, the hoodies,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: every terrorist, everything on it. It's the biggest terrorist on earth.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: You don't have to explain why you took him out.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: That's pretty obvious. But you're not supposed to talk like
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: that with the range scumbag. You're not supposed to use
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: that kind of language. So what happened about thirty six
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: hours ago? So actually about twenty four hours ago, they
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: got I don't want to mention names here, but a
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: bunch of the inner circle of the president got some
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: of the wisest old Washington hands on how you're supposed
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: to talk in a situation like this, and the conference
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: to him in with President Trump to tell him how
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: to message this, how to address this, how to speak
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: to this. I mean, these guys told me this. I said,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: first of all, this is going to last ten minutes
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: and they'll forget about it. But also, you know, him
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: will probably go the opposode. I think that's what happened.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: This was a reaction to that conference call, which he
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: didn't want to hear. So, hey, we'll get to Corey
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Lewandowski coming up. He may have some real trouble. Hey. Ernie,
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: the legendary New York news man, was one of the
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: finest people I ever knew. He was the nicest guy ever.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: You know that big, smiling, happy, positive Ernie you saw
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: on TV, Well, that was Ernie off the air every second,
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: every day everywhere. Everybody that knew him loved him. Everybody
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: that ever worked with him loved him. I don't know
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: anybody else you could say that about, but people loved
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: Ernie Anastes. He was a terrific guy, an excellent newsman.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: He came to New York. It was back in the seventies,
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: and in those days, TV news, local TV news was
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: a very big deal. It's not anymore. Very few people
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: watched the six or eleven o'clock news. It's not a
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: big deal. They're lucky if they have, you know, a
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: few hundred thousand people watching. But in those days, six
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: o'clock eleven o'clock news on Channel seven, Channel four, Channel two,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: millions of people would watch, and the anchors were getting
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: millions of dollars a year, and it was a big deal,
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: and those anchors were of amazing quality. You go back,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: you look at can you name the anchors on Channel
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: two right now? No, who's the six o'clock news anchor
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: on Channel four. I don't know, nobody knows. I watch it,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: I don't know who it is, nobody knows whether people.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: You don't know who they're, nobody knows who they are. Nobody.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: So back then it was Legends, it was Channel seven,
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: it was Roger Grimsby and Bill bu Tell really really
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: really top top newsman. And then even the rest of
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: the cast it was Warner wolf on Sports, Storm Field
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: in the Weather. And then the young guy that came
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: in there to join the group was Ernie Anastes, and
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: he was everywhere. He was a Channel two for a while,
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: Channel four, not Channel four, Channel two, Channel seven, then
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: Channel nine, then Channel five, and a great guy in
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: real life. He had been a DJ when I was
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: a little kid. I remember hearing this DJ on the air,
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: Ernie Andrews. I found out later that was Ernie Anastes.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: At that time they want I'm using his name, But
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: he was an honest, decent broadcaster you could trust. And
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: he always talked about that.
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: If you have a sense of your purpose, it doesn't
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: have to be some lofty thing. It just could be
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: a sense of this is why I'm here, making there's
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: why i'm here, this is why I live that's right.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: I'm making a difference somehow. That's how I feel about
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: my work.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: And you hear the way you talk. You always had
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: that smile in his voice, that positive smile in his voice.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: I'm hoping that maybe, you know, we'll say, Okay, we'll
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: strike the balance. Let's give them the news, put it
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: in a right perspective, but also give them some other
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: positive things to think about, so we can feel that
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: there is some There's a keyword, hope.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: If we lose hope, we've lost everything. And I'll say
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: one last thing, may Angelo. She was wonderful and in
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: terms of like what we do. People may not remember
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: what you said or what you did, but they'll remember
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: how you made them feel.
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: Now here's another thing about and you don't see this anymore,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: and you Ernie Assa's very well for about I don't know,
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: thirty years. I probably had lunch with them five million times,
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: dinner with them a billion times, talk to them trillions
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: of hours, and yet I still have no idea where
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: he stood politically. I have no idea if he was
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: a Democrat or a Republican. I don't know if he
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: liked Trump like he was absolutely neutral that's the way
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: he's supposed to be as a newsman. You know him
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: back then, you really didn't. You know, you could watch
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: Johnny Carson every night, five nights a week for twenty
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: you didn't know where he stood politically. You could never
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: tell Jay Leno, who always did political jokes every night,
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: but you still you couldn't tell. Is he a Democrat
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: as a republic couldn't tell. And that's really the way
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: it's supposed to be. But he was an amazing, amazing guy.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: Funeral will be on Monday in Westchester. He lived in
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: west Chester, was in New York all the time, was
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: here all the time at w O R Hey. Check

• 14:10
  Speaker 1: day before Bill O'Reilly was on You remember that clip
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: you've seen that video where the control room screws up
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: and he's screaming at him and he goes, what, well,
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: don't live Remember that and I pointed out, that's every host,
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: every anchor man ever in television, the nicest ones, the
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: worst ones. There's always a moment where the control room
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: is screwing up like crazy and the anchor will start
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: yelling and cursing at it. It's happens not all the time,
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: but once in a while. Every host, every host, and
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: anchor has done that at some point, except if there's
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: one guy that didn't do it. I think it was
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: I don't think he's ever yelled at anybody ever, maybe Regis,
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: maybe Regis too, but those are at least the one
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: exception was amazing. We'll take some calls in a minute.
