Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: One a day that was at the Police Academy in
- 0:03Speaker 1: Garden City. President Trump, not only him, Todd blanche was
- 0:07Speaker 1: there and Cas Patel, Caroline Levitt, all the Congress people,
- 0:12Speaker 1: all the people on Long Island that are in office
- 0:15Speaker 1: and running for office. It was amazing and really the
- 0:19Speaker 1: best part of all was right behind the stage on
- 0:22Speaker 1: the podium where Trump and Blakeman spoke from, were a
- 0:27Speaker 1: lot and I mean a lot of cops, female, male cops,
- 0:34Speaker 1: cops everywhere, because, of course, the theme last Friday was
- 0:39Speaker 1: public safety and nobody does it better than Bruce Blakeman,
- 0:43Speaker 1: Pat Ryder and Donnelly, all the amazing folks in Nassau County.
- 0:48Speaker 1: So Bruce was amazing. He spoke twice. He spoke before
- 0:53Speaker 1: the President. Then as you heard the President called him
- 0:56Speaker 1: up on stage. He was kind enough to say, all
- 0:58Speaker 1: load to me, and Trump unleashed a smile like you
- 1:03Speaker 1: never saw. You can see it. It's on my social
- 1:06Speaker 1: media at Rosenberg dot Sydney on Instagram, at sid Rosenberg
- 1:10Speaker 1: nineteen on Twitter, sid Rosenberg on Facebook, sim Rosenberg on
- 1:14Speaker 1: truth social Ear to ear. Trump was smiling when Blakeman
- 1:18Speaker 1: pointed me out, and then we weren't done. Then we
- 1:21Speaker 1: opted in a motorca. The great Tom Sullivan went to
- 1:24Speaker 1: the Hamptons and Bruce was great again, spoke at the home,
- 1:28Speaker 1: the beautiful Home I Musselle of Bob and Lorena Dave Roberts.
- 1:32Speaker 1: We arrived when Steve Whitkoff was still speaking, Star started
- 1:36Speaker 1: cast o'deedle was there, Bert Capone, Suzanne Miller, whole bunch
- 1:41Speaker 1: of big time people, Arie Ackerman, and we still weren't done.
- 1:44Speaker 1: If the Bruce spoke there and was tremendous. Bruce was
- 1:48Speaker 1: kind enough to take about a dozen of us to
- 1:50Speaker 1: dinner at some trendy place in Southampton. I think it's
- 1:54Speaker 1: called seventy five Mean. And then finally, after my friend
- 1:59Speaker 1: Lauren was married to the amazing Finton, took us to
- 2:02Speaker 1: the restaurant Anthony Pamassa. Peko drove me home and the
- 2:06Speaker 1: day was over. But what an unbelievable day. It was
- 2:10Speaker 1: starred by my man Bruce Blakeman, Bruce, your amazing last Friday.
- 2:17Speaker 2: Oh it sounds like half a day, said come on,
- 2:19Speaker 2: we have a bigger date than that. Every day.
- 2:23Speaker 1: You really do, I know, I see your schedule. I
- 2:26Speaker 1: talked to my son Gabriel who's still working for. He's
- 2:28Speaker 1: still working for He's like this guy's everywhere every day,
- 2:33Speaker 1: some days on Long Island, lots of days in the
- 2:35Speaker 1: northern part of the state because you're campaigning for governor.
- 2:39Speaker 1: I mean your day's literally these days are like eighteen
- 2:43Speaker 1: hours long.
- 2:44Speaker 2: Yes, we just finished a three day swing in western
- 2:48Speaker 2: New York, Rochester, Buffalo, every point in between, Wyoming County,
- 2:53Speaker 2: Orleans County, Shenango County. Where else were we to remember
- 3:00Speaker 2: all the places we were at, Genesee County, Monroe County,
- 3:04Speaker 2: Erie County. It was amazing. The people are fired up.
- 3:09Speaker 2: They're miserable under Kathy Hochel. They desperately want change. So
- 3:15Speaker 2: it was a labor of love. It was a sense
- 3:18Speaker 2: of duty, and we went from early in the morning
- 3:21Speaker 2: to late night every day there. Now I'm back on
- 3:24Speaker 2: Long Island. I'm taking care of some county business today
- 3:28Speaker 2: and we're going to shoot in the city. We've got
- 3:30Speaker 2: a rally against anti Semitism in the city, and we
- 3:34Speaker 2: got so many other things going on that then I'm
- 3:38Speaker 2: ending the night tonight. I'm going to end a little
- 3:40Speaker 2: early because my dear friend Mark Plumer, it's his birthday
- 3:43Speaker 2: and He's been so supportive of me, so I'm going
- 3:45Speaker 2: to go to his birthday party.
- 3:46Speaker 1: Good better than me. I get invited to all these rallies,
- 3:48Speaker 1: I don't go. I stays too much. But you go
- 3:50Speaker 1: to all of them. You're great, Brook Goldstein. And they
- 3:53Speaker 1: contacted me today about this rally. I'm like, I'm not
- 3:55Speaker 1: doing it. I actually think at some point we do
- 3:57Speaker 1: too many of these. I actually believe, and I'm going
- 4:00Speaker 1: to say this in public, that we hurt ourselves. It's
- 4:02Speaker 1: too much. You know, we gotta pick our spots, and
- 4:06Speaker 1: I think that a rally every day is a bit much.
- 4:09Speaker 1: But you're a great Jew you are and a great
- 4:12Speaker 1: human being, and you go to these, which is important
- 4:14Speaker 1: for you to be there. I do want to talk
- 4:16Speaker 1: about this young tourist that was stabbed in Manhattan because
- 4:21Speaker 1: this speaks directly to Kathy Hokel and the fact that
- 4:25Speaker 1: you say this all the time. There is not a
- 4:28Speaker 1: governor in this country who's more patient when it comes
- 4:32Speaker 1: to criminals and really fierst criminals than Kathy Hokel. Again,
- 4:37Speaker 1: a young tourist stabbed in the city just a couple
- 4:40Speaker 1: of days ago. This, as you say, Bruce Blakeman is
- 4:44Speaker 1: Kathy Hokeels New York.
- 4:46Speaker 2: Well, you know something said, every major criminal justice initiative
- 4:51Speaker 2: from Kathy Hockel has made it easier for criminals to
- 4:56Speaker 2: prey on our communities. Now, usually when an elect official
- 5:00Speaker 2: rolls out a criminal justice initiative, a proposal for a
- 5:05Speaker 2: new law, it's to protect the communities. She doesn't want
- 5:09Speaker 2: to protect the communities. She's protecting the criminals. And now
- 5:13Speaker 2: a law was passed that she signed and she's going
- 5:17Speaker 2: in force that won't allow local police officers and local
- 5:20Speaker 2: sheriffs to cooperate with ICE. Now, in Nassau County, in
- 5:24Speaker 2: the last year, we've removed two thousand illegal migrants with
- 5:29Speaker 2: criminal records ranging from attempted murder, rape, robbery, burglary, kidnapping,
- 5:34Speaker 2: drug dealing, gang activity. Two thousand, and that's not two
- 5:38Speaker 2: thousand out of Nassau County. That's two thousand out of
- 5:42Speaker 2: the region. Because they could go to the Hudson Valley,
- 5:45Speaker 2: they could go into New York City, they could go
- 5:47Speaker 2: to Suffolk County, they could go to New Jersey, Connecticut,
- 5:49Speaker 2: upstate New York. We got them out of the region.
- 5:53Speaker 2: We've got them out of the state where would Kathy
- 5:56Speaker 2: Hoak like me to put those two thousand criminals back.
- 6:00Speaker 2: It is just insane. She's not looking out for us.
- 6:04Speaker 2: She is supporting Zoah Mandami and the far left dsa
- 6:09Speaker 2: agenda to undermine the fabric of our society, which the
- 6:14Speaker 2: cornerstone is public safety.
- 6:16Speaker 1: I did have Tom Homan on the show a couple
- 6:18Speaker 1: of days ago, and we talked about because pot Ryder
- 6:21Speaker 1: was on too, and he told me that this law
- 6:23Speaker 1: goes into effect, honor about August twenty fifth, But you
- 6:27Speaker 1: guys can't do what you've been doing in cooperation with
- 6:31Speaker 1: Ice because Kathy Hokeel doesn't care if Nassau County becomes
- 6:37Speaker 1: less safe. She's all about the Democrat narrative. So I
- 6:41Speaker 1: guess it goes into effect August of twenty fifth. But
- 6:44Speaker 1: Holman did say to me, Bruce that listen, nobody's gonna
- 6:47Speaker 1: break the law. But he was proud of what you
- 6:50Speaker 1: guys are doing in Nasau County and that he will.
- 6:53Speaker 1: He was hoping at least that you guys would continue
- 6:56Speaker 1: to put the bad guys away no matter what Kathy
- 6:58Speaker 1: Hockel says.
- 7:00Speaker 2: Well, that's absolutely true. Don't think for one minute that
- 7:04Speaker 2: we're going to lay down and not enforce the law
- 7:08Speaker 2: and allow criminals to run rampant through our neighborhoods. That
- 7:11Speaker 2: is not happening in Nassau County. When I become governor,
- 7:14Speaker 2: I will not let that happen in our state. Public
- 7:17Speaker 2: safety is incredibly important. People will not move in to
- 7:21Speaker 2: neighborhoods where they feel unsafe. Businesses will not operate their
- 7:25Speaker 2: businesses where their workers feel unsafe. It's fundamental, it's common sense,
- 7:31Speaker 2: it's good judgment, all of which Kathy Hochel has none.
- 7:34Speaker 1: Of that, none of it. So take me back to
- 7:36Speaker 1: last Fadi for a second, Bruce, because I have to
- 7:38Speaker 1: tell you walking into that police academy, it was unbelievable
- 7:43Speaker 1: the amount of patriotism and some other special people that
- 7:46Speaker 1: happened to sit two rows in front of the Neutrap family.
- 7:49Speaker 1: And of course you know about Omar Nutra killed in
- 7:52Speaker 1: October the seventh, and what a beautiful couple they are.
- 7:54Speaker 1: I can't even mention all the amazing people that you
- 7:58Speaker 1: had this rally on Friday. But let's kind of get
- 8:03Speaker 1: away from the Bruce Blakeman wanning for governor, County Executive.
- 8:07Speaker 1: He's on TV every couple of minutes. Here you are
- 8:10Speaker 1: in front of thousands of people. They're chanting Bruce like
- 8:14Speaker 1: you were Springsteen. You got President Trump standing right next
- 8:19Speaker 1: to you, shaking your hand, telling you how great it is.
- 8:22Speaker 1: I asked you this once before, about pinching yourself. Were
- 8:25Speaker 1: you standing up there going Wow, what an amazing opportunity.
- 8:31Speaker 1: Who could have thought this could ever be me? But
- 8:34Speaker 1: it is.
- 8:36Speaker 2: If my teachers at wheel Er Avenue Elementary School or
- 8:40Speaker 2: Memorial Junior High School or Valley Stream Central High School
- 8:44Speaker 2: saw me up there, they wouldn't believe it. I'm telling you.
- 8:48Speaker 2: I Like I said to all the kids all the time,
- 8:51Speaker 2: I say, it's not where you start, it's where you finish.
- 8:55Speaker 2: A lot of kids like me were busy playing basketball
- 8:59Speaker 2: every day and hanging out, and we probably didn't pay
- 9:02Speaker 2: as much time to our studies as we should have.
- 9:05Speaker 2: And people thought that all these guys will never make it.
- 9:09Speaker 2: But you know, at some point you get an epiphany
- 9:13Speaker 2: and you say to yourself, hey, listen, I need to
- 9:16Speaker 2: make something of myself. It happened with me at about
- 9:20Speaker 2: the age of twenty one. I started saying, I better
- 9:23Speaker 2: get serious about life or life is going to pass
- 9:25Speaker 2: me by. So when I speak to kids all the time, said,
- 9:29Speaker 2: I tell them, Look, if you're not doing well in school,
- 9:33Speaker 2: or you've had some setbacks in your life where your
- 9:35Speaker 2: parents got divorced and you're depressed about it, you know
- 9:39Speaker 2: there's a future for you. Don't get two down on yourself.
- 9:43Speaker 2: Try to turn it around, because it's not where you start,
- 9:46Speaker 2: it's where you're finished. And we've all had bumps in
- 9:48Speaker 2: the road. Sid I read your book. You've had some
- 9:50Speaker 2: bumps in the road. You've had some major bumps in
- 9:53Speaker 2: the road. Think about the fact you made an amazing comeback.
- 9:58Speaker 2: So that's what I like to do tell the young people.
- 10:01Speaker 2: Don't dwell on your failures. Learn from your failures, because
- 10:05Speaker 2: you can learn a lot from your failures. But always
- 10:09Speaker 2: remember this, you work really hard and your focus you
- 10:12Speaker 2: can turn things around in your life one.
- 10:14Speaker 1: Hundred percent valuable. Lesson, Thank you for the con words
- 10:17Speaker 1: about me, And it's true because I was really in
- 10:19Speaker 1: bad shape, really in bad shape, you know, drugs and
- 10:21Speaker 1: alcohol rehab, and my one year old daughter came to
- 10:25Speaker 1: visit me in rehab, and I really wanted to kill myself,
- 10:27Speaker 1: which I did try. I want to get back to
- 10:29Speaker 1: the Hampton. So on Friday night, it was a great
- 10:32Speaker 1: event again the Roberts family lorraina day specifically, she was
- 10:36Speaker 1: in charge and Whitcorp was speaking when you and I
- 10:39Speaker 1: walked in, Bruce, and again you made a great speech.
- 10:42Speaker 1: It was very, very crowded, very A lot of folks
- 10:45Speaker 1: couldn't wait to meet you, take pictures with you, talk
- 10:48Speaker 1: to you. And that's a pretty apple one crowd. So
- 10:51Speaker 1: I hope that you raised a lot of money that night.
- 10:52Speaker 1: I didn't ask, but I hope that you did. But
- 10:54Speaker 1: are you finding that these fundraisers meeting people all over
- 10:59Speaker 1: New York while really going very very well.
- 11:02Speaker 2: You're going incredibly well. There's tremendous momentum. It's like an
- 11:06Speaker 2: electricity out there again. People are just yearning for change.
- 11:11Speaker 2: They want to get back to American values. They want
- 11:14Speaker 2: to get back to the things that their parents taught
- 11:16Speaker 2: them when they were growing up. And of that event
- 11:19Speaker 2: at Lauren, Dave Roberts and Bob Roberts House, sid three
- 11:23Speaker 2: quarters of the people there were Democrats.
- 11:25Speaker 1: I saw the fact that I see that there's a
- 11:27Speaker 1: very very very famous Democrat Hampton's resident who's about to
- 11:32Speaker 1: throw you a fundraiser.
- 11:35Speaker 2: Yes, yes, you know. Sid every day Democrats walk up
- 11:39Speaker 2: to me and say, I'm a lifelong Democrat, I never
- 11:43Speaker 2: voted Republican in my life. I'm voting for you, and
- 11:45Speaker 2: I'm voting straight Republican this year because my party has
- 11:49Speaker 2: gone nuh They're insane. Think about it. This isn't the
- 11:54Speaker 2: party of Mario Clomo or you, Carrie or Ed Koch
- 11:59Speaker 2: or Annuel Patrick moynihand or even Bill Clinton for that matter.
- 12:03Speaker 2: You know the difference between the Democrats now that are running,
- 12:06Speaker 2: you know, the DSA, the ultra left wing, crazy communist
- 12:11Speaker 2: wing of the Democratic Party versus Democrats in the past.
- 12:14Speaker 2: In the past we had our differences, said, but I
- 12:17Speaker 2: always knew those people were good Americans. They loved America.
- 12:21Speaker 2: I can't say that of Zo Ron Mndami. I can't
- 12:24Speaker 2: say that for sure about dar Liza Chevalier. I can't
- 12:28Speaker 2: even say that about Brad Lander anymore. No, he's lost
- 12:31Speaker 2: his way completely.
- 12:32Speaker 1: He's gross, gross, he's terrible. Abraham Hama checks in and
- 12:36Speaker 1: he's going to see you in deal on Sunday. I
- 12:37Speaker 1: told you he's a great guy. I'm glad he hopped
- 12:39Speaker 1: on board with you too. You know, on Monday or Tuesday.
- 12:43Speaker 1: I had on this show Sitha, she's running to replace
- 12:48Speaker 1: Letitia James as Attorney General. I love her. And this couple,
- 12:52Speaker 1: Bruce was sitting right next to you, a couple so beautiful.
- 12:58Speaker 1: The President loved him. He actually walked off the stage
- 13:01Speaker 1: in the middle of his speech to hug them. Mcdahlia
- 13:04Speaker 1: Martinez and jose Frettis and their twelve year old son
- 13:08Speaker 1: was gunned down, murdered in the Bronx a couple of
- 13:11Speaker 1: weeks ago, on his brand new bicycle in front of
- 13:14Speaker 1: a bodega. And I had all three on this show,
- 13:17Speaker 1: I guess on Monday, and it was brutal. The mom
- 13:20Speaker 1: was crying, the dad driven to tears. But these are
- 13:24Speaker 1: the stories that Democrats don't care about. Bruce. They don't
- 13:30Speaker 1: care about Lake and Riley, who was raped and murdered
- 13:34Speaker 1: and the guy, the bad guy was actually arrested in
- 13:36Speaker 1: New York. They don't care about Sheridan Gorman, who happens
- 13:40Speaker 1: to be from New York, beautiful eighteen year old young
- 13:42Speaker 1: girl shot in the back and murdered in Chicago. They
- 13:47Speaker 1: didn't care about Richard Williams, eighty three year old Vietnam Vet.
- 13:50Speaker 1: He survived the war, he survived cancer. He was thrown
- 13:54Speaker 1: onto his subway tracks and murdered by an illegal in
- 13:58Speaker 1: New York. Not a word, not a word from Kathy
- 14:02Speaker 1: Hokeel or Mom Donnie. And there are all the victims
- 14:05Speaker 1: and the audience that day on fire.
- 14:07Speaker 2: Madeline Bramley was there, Madeline brain Lexit. I spoke to
- 14:10Speaker 2: her the black exit from the Democrat Party.
- 14:13Speaker 1: That's right. I spoke to her on Monday too. She's
- 14:15Speaker 1: also a lovely lady and a fan of the show.
- 14:18Speaker 1: But point being, Bruce, you care. Kathy Hockel doesn't care.
- 14:24Speaker 1: Dead Americans, a ton of them, a lot more than
- 14:27Speaker 1: when they good and pretty dead Americans all over the
- 14:30Speaker 1: country killed by illegals. And you care. That's all I
- 14:35Speaker 1: need to know, you know, sid.
- 14:39Speaker 2: I was up in Niagara County last week and met
- 14:43Speaker 2: with families who have had radiation on their property, chemicals
- 14:49Speaker 2: on their property. What they asked for a meeting with
- 14:52Speaker 2: Kathy Hokeel to try and remediate the situation. And they
- 14:57Speaker 2: have young children running around in the yards. This is
- 14:59Speaker 2: all oh by no fault of their own. It's from
- 15:02Speaker 2: things that happened that the government did and the corporations
- 15:05Speaker 2: did around them, where back in the day they didn't
- 15:08Speaker 2: have the kind of environmental controls that we have now today.
- 15:12Speaker 2: And she won't even go to meet them. I went
- 15:15Speaker 2: up there to meet these people. I wanted to cry
- 15:18Speaker 2: when they were telling these stories about the cancer in
- 15:22Speaker 2: their neighborhood and how nobody's come to their help. And
- 15:26Speaker 2: the fact that I was up there with Rob ort
- 15:28Speaker 2: who was the minority leader of the Senate, and he's
- 15:30Speaker 2: trying to help, but it seems like they've made it
- 15:33Speaker 2: a partisan thing and they're not going to help these people.
- 15:37Speaker 2: She does not care. She's so far removed. Think about
- 15:40Speaker 2: what she said did about Upstaters. She said Upstaters aren't
- 15:44Speaker 2: sophisticated enough to make important decisions. Those are her own people,
- 15:49Speaker 2: and I travel upstate. You know what they have upstate
- 15:52Speaker 2: that she doesn't have common sense and good judgment. And
- 15:56Speaker 2: then what she said about black kids, the black kids
- 15:59Speaker 2: in the don't know what a computer is sid That
- 16:03Speaker 2: is the most racist thing I've ever heard. And let
- 16:05Speaker 2: me tell you something, There is no ten year old
- 16:09Speaker 2: black kid in the Bronx that's not better on a
- 16:13Speaker 2: computer than I am. You know, they're back on her computer,
- 16:16Speaker 2: and I they know what a computer is, and they're
- 16:18Speaker 2: better than I am. They're better than she is. She
- 16:21Speaker 2: just looks down on people. She's aloof uncaring, and she
- 16:26Speaker 2: doesn't care about New Yorkers because that's why she spent
- 16:28Speaker 2: billions of dollars on illegal migrants to prove a political point.
- 16:33Speaker 2: So you're absolutely right. We need somebody with a heart.
- 16:35Speaker 2: We need somebody who cares about New Yorkers.
- 16:38Speaker 1: I love what you said to on this show, and
- 16:40Speaker 1: then you set it again on Fox and the Post
- 16:42Speaker 1: and it all took credit for but you said it
- 16:43Speaker 1: first here at eight twenty in the morning. I've got
- 16:45Speaker 1: the tape that was nine to eleven. I've been on
- 16:48Speaker 1: this crusade. I know you listen every day, Bruce, every
- 16:51Speaker 1: day since Julie the sixth. I've done a story on
- 16:54Speaker 1: nine to eleven. Well, it means bringing on family victims,
- 16:58Speaker 1: playing tapes from Woody Julian. I need the President Trump.
- 17:01Speaker 1: I've been on a crusade to keep the mayor away
- 17:04Speaker 1: from that side. Now he's going, there's nothing you can do.
- 17:07Speaker 1: He's just a miserable America hating son of a bitch.
- 17:10Speaker 1: Hes going to be there okay, but I still put
- 17:12Speaker 1: on another family member of a victim yesterday, Jeanette Pick.
- 17:17Speaker 1: I've had on this show the gentleman that started the petition,
- 17:21Speaker 1: Giovanni Galante. And you're on this show, and you said
- 17:24Speaker 1: last week, you know what, he is going to show up.
- 17:27Speaker 1: There's nothing we can do. We can't make him not
- 17:28Speaker 1: show up. But you know what you can do. Don't yell,
- 17:31Speaker 1: don't scream, don't hurt anybody, turn your box on him.
- 17:35Speaker 1: And I said, just like the cops said to build
- 17:37Speaker 1: de Blajo years ago. And you said, that's exactly right, said,
- 17:41Speaker 1: and I know it's everywhere now, but I think at
- 17:43Speaker 1: the very least, if he's going to be there, I
- 17:47Speaker 1: think your suggestion is the best. You're doubling down on
- 17:50Speaker 1: that absolutely.
- 17:52Speaker 2: I think that that's a respectful and peaceful way to
- 17:56Speaker 2: protest his presence. He trivializes nine to eleven. He trivializes
- 18:02Speaker 2: what happened to my nephew. My nephew was murdered at
- 18:06Speaker 2: the age of twenty six by Islamic extremists, who they
- 18:12Speaker 2: think about how sick they are, they were actually gig
- 18:17Speaker 2: giddy when they were flying their planes into the World
- 18:20Speaker 2: Trade Center and into the Pentagon and into that field
- 18:24Speaker 2: in Pennsylvania. They were giddy. These people are nuts and
- 18:29Speaker 2: they're dangerous. And that's why I don't care what anybody
- 18:34Speaker 2: says about me and my relationship with President Trump. I
- 18:38Speaker 2: stand with President Trump in making sure that Iran doesn't
- 18:42Speaker 2: have a nuclear weapon, because if they'll fly planes into
- 18:47Speaker 2: the World Trade Center and commit murder suicide, Okay, you
- 18:53Speaker 2: think they would hesitate one second killing three million people
- 18:57Speaker 2: in New York with a nuclear weapon, they would not,
- 19:00Speaker 2: So we have to make sure they never get that capability.
- 19:03Speaker 1: You're right, And that's why I pay attention to all
- 19:05Speaker 1: these racis. I mean, you know, Bruce, I'm very very
- 19:08Speaker 1: close with Randy Finne, the congressman down in Florida, and
- 19:11Speaker 1: he had that primary against this guy, Dan Bilzarian. This
- 19:14Speaker 1: guy Bilzarian, Bruce put out a two minute video on
- 19:18Speaker 1: social media, okay, where he glorified Adolf Hitler and then
- 19:22Speaker 1: actually showed a picture of Randy Fine, a Jewish man
- 19:26Speaker 1: with horns coming out of his head. You had another
- 19:30Speaker 1: psycho running down and board against Moscowitz, who's a Democrat,
- 19:33Speaker 1: but he's a Jew. So I'm paying attention to all
- 19:36Speaker 1: these races across the country because the DSA's the Jew haters.
- 19:42Speaker 1: It's getting bad out there. Every time they lose, I celebrate.
- 19:47Speaker 1: I'm sorry that Angie Nixon won yesterday. But are you
- 19:50Speaker 1: doing the same thing that I am paying close attention
- 19:52Speaker 1: to all these races around the country, praying and hoping
- 19:55Speaker 1: these low lives don't win.
- 19:58Speaker 2: Well. Absolutely, but here's the thing, said, you know, we
- 20:02Speaker 2: can't lose sight of the fact of what's really going
- 20:04Speaker 2: on here. You know, this is a systematic destruction of
- 20:09Speaker 2: America and American values. And they're very clever and they're
- 20:14Speaker 2: doing it. They first started indoctrinating our kids and the universities.
- 20:18Speaker 2: Now they've got people thinking that if we go to socialism,
- 20:22Speaker 2: life will be wonderful. Winston Churchill said, socialism is nothing
- 20:26Speaker 2: more than shared misery. If everybody's misery, if everybody's miserable, said,
- 20:30Speaker 2: then you don't know what happiness is. And that's what
- 20:32Speaker 2: they want to make us. They want to make us
- 20:34Speaker 2: all miserable. And when you talk about anti Semitism, listen,
- 20:39Speaker 2: I have told my Christian friends and Christian leaders, the
- 20:43Speaker 2: Jews are the appetizer, the Christians are the main course.
- 20:47Speaker 2: Is the anti American. They want to destroy our Judeo
- 20:50Speaker 2: Christian work ethic, our Judeo Christian background and values. They
- 20:54Speaker 2: want to detegrate the immigrants, like Italian Americans who help
- 20:58Speaker 2: build this country. So the fact of the matter is, uh,
- 21:03Speaker 2: it's not just anti Semitism, this is anti Americanism. This
- 21:06Speaker 2: is against American values.
- 21:10Speaker 1: You're right. They come with the Jews on Saturday, and
- 21:12Speaker 1: the majority of the people were in church on Sunday
- 21:15Speaker 1: last one. People come to me all the time, they go, Hey,
- 21:18Speaker 1: your buddy Bruce, your brother Blues. He's gonna win what. Yeah,
- 21:20Speaker 1: he's gonna win. Okay, he's gonna get the blog vote.
- 21:23Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 21:23Speaker 1: Fun, he's gonna get the Latino vote. Yah, he's gonna
- 21:26Speaker 1: do great. I know do Yes, loves him. He's gonna
- 21:28Speaker 1: get thirty to thirty three percent of the vote in
- 21:31Speaker 1: the city. Yes, he's gonna get it.
- 21:33Speaker 2: Yes.
- 21:34Speaker 1: Are you getting those same questions every day?
- 21:38Speaker 2: Oh? Sure, there are people that ask me every day
- 21:41Speaker 2: what my chances are. But here's some good news. Of
- 21:45Speaker 2: the four most contested congressional races in New York State,
- 21:49Speaker 2: three helped by Democrat incumbents, I'm ahead or even in
- 21:52Speaker 2: every one of those in Erie County, where Kathy Hocho resildes. Well,
- 21:58Speaker 2: she actually lives in the city now, but she used
- 22:01Speaker 2: to reside there. She used to be from Buffalo in
- 22:05Speaker 2: her county. I am even with her right now. Zelden
- 22:09Speaker 2: lost Erie County by six points. I'm going to win
- 22:12Speaker 2: it in Monroe County, where Rochester is located. I just
- 22:16Speaker 2: had a big fundraiser and rally up there. They've never
- 22:19Speaker 2: seen so much excitement in years. So we're gonna win.
- 22:24Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you right now, I'm going to get
- 22:26Speaker 2: thirty six percent or more of about in New York City,
- 22:31Speaker 2: there's no community. When I talk to middle class African
- 22:35Speaker 2: American homeowners and queens, they're like, we voted for this
- 22:39Speaker 2: guy Mondamin. The first thing he wanted to do is
- 22:41Speaker 2: raisar Texas, s him.
- 22:44Speaker 1: I love that. I love the biosome more. Somebody also
- 22:47Speaker 1: said to me on the way out here Blucia, like this,
- 22:50Speaker 1: you know I have one for Bruce Blakeman. I said, why,
- 22:52Speaker 1: of course, he's very handsome.
- 22:56Speaker 2: I'll think it anyway I could get it.
- 22:58Speaker 1: Said, well, you are you got that beautiful white hair,
- 23:01Speaker 1: and you are a very very handsome guy. You are
- 23:03Speaker 1: so I think you're doing great.
- 23:05Speaker 2: I do.
- 23:05Speaker 1: I love being with you all day Friday and Friday night.
- 23:08Speaker 1: I watch you work every day, and New York should
- 23:10Speaker 1: be very very proud of you when you are going
- 23:12Speaker 1: to win. There's no question about it. Give me on
- 23:14Speaker 1: the way out here quickly. The reason why you came
- 23:16Speaker 1: on was to promote some of these great concerts. You
- 23:19Speaker 1: are still the Nashau County executive, the beautiful Eisenhowell Park.
- 23:24Speaker 1: You've got Loud Luxury, You've got zz Top, You've got
- 23:28Speaker 1: our mutual friend, the amazing singer Chris Machio happens to
- 23:32Speaker 1: be Trump's favorite tenor. All these big shows coming to
- 23:35Speaker 1: Nassau County.
- 23:37Speaker 2: Yeah, so we have Loud Luxury on Friday, this Friday,
- 23:41Speaker 2: six o'clock. They're a great group, a lot of following
- 23:45Speaker 2: with younger people. That'll be a great, a great concert.
- 23:50Speaker 2: Then we have Florider on Monday, August thirty.
- 23:54Speaker 1: Oh you do Floder.
- 23:55Speaker 2: We got Florider nice and we don't know what the
- 23:59Speaker 2: situation and his was easy top yet our hearts go
- 24:02Speaker 2: out to them and Frank Beard's family. They are scheduled
- 24:07Speaker 2: to appear on Thursday, September seventeenth. But I guess that's
- 24:12Speaker 2: a little bit in flux now. They've got more important
- 24:14Speaker 2: things to worry about others in our concert then, so
- 24:17Speaker 2: I'm sure their manager will call us and tell us
- 24:19Speaker 2: what the status is. But right now it's scheduled for
- 24:22Speaker 2: September seventeenth. And you know, we got a great drummer here.
- 24:25Speaker 2: Maybe he'll sit in. I don't know if you've ever
- 24:27Speaker 2: met Joe Saladino, the Oyster Bay supervisor.
- 24:30Speaker 1: Yes, but he is.
- 24:31Speaker 2: A great drummer.
