Speaker 2: Well, hey, we've got a lot to get to. We'll

Speaker 2: for them. We'll get to Cornell. We'll get to crazy
0:20
Speaker 2: Letitia James. We'll get to AI, the city council. Holding hearings.
0:28
Speaker 2: Very important hearings. Looking to make money off these AI companies.
0:31
Speaker 2: We'll get to... Hey, Fox News. 30th anniversary.
0:36
Speaker 3: Tomorrow. We'll get to Iran and we'll get to... We'll
0:42
Speaker 3: get to Jim Baker. Remember Jim Baker? He died. I
0:45
Speaker 3: didn't know... The breaking news is he was still alive.
0:48
Speaker 3: Did you know that? I didn't know that. We'll get to... Well,
0:51
Speaker 3: let's do it right now. This Chuck Schumer is finished.
0:54
Speaker 3: Chuck Schumer is... Just a joke in the Democratic Party.
0:59
Speaker 3: Chuck Schumer is a tired old fossil. He's an old dinosaur.
1:05
Speaker 3: He's obviously Republicans have no use for him, but Democrats
1:10
Speaker 3: want him gone. All the Democrats want him gone. He's
1:13
Speaker 3: just going to become a punching bag now. He'll finish
1:16
Speaker 3: out his term. He can't run for reelection. Who knows?
1:18
Speaker 3: He might even step down early. He's just going to
1:20
Speaker 3: be a punching bag. Here's Ro Khanna. This is like
1:23
Speaker 3: the hot Democrat now. He's like the Indian Adam Schiff. Remember,
1:27
Speaker 3: Adam Schiff and Ro Khanna are on every Sunday show,
1:31
Speaker 3: every week. These are the two hot shots in that
1:34
Speaker 3: they're the biggest liars. They're the biggest attackers of Trump.
1:38
Speaker 3: They're booked on every Sunday show. Shows you how illegitimate
1:42
Speaker 3: these Sunday shows are. You should have a wide range
1:45
Speaker 3: of opinions, a wide range of guests, a wide range
1:48
Speaker 3: of Democrats. But every Sunday, each show, they have these
1:51
Speaker 3: two on to bash Trump. But And it's fine. Bashing
1:55
Speaker 3: Trump is what you're supposed to do if you're a Democrat.
1:57
Speaker 3: But listen to this. This is Ro Khanna, leading Democratic spokesman.
2:02
Speaker 3: Listen to the way he talks about Chuck Schumer. Let's
2:06
Speaker 3: try it again. Let's get the next gen on. Listen
2:09
Speaker 3: to the way he talks about Chuck Schumer.
2:10
Speaker 4: I'm a New Deal Democrat, not a donor class Democrat.
2:14
Speaker 4: I'm a New Deal Democrat, not a corporate Democrat. I'm
2:23
Speaker 4: a New Deal Democrat, not a Chuck Schumer Democrat.
2:26
Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't know why they cut it, but the
2:28
Speaker 3: whole crowd cheers there.
2:31
Speaker 5: Yeah.
2:31
Speaker 3: So that's Schumer, a donor Democrat, a corporate Democrat. The
2:36
Speaker 3: reason Schumer stayed in so long is he's the king
2:39
Speaker 3: of donor service. Every major donor has his cell number.
2:44
Speaker 3: I'm talking about Democrats and Republicans, and they always make
2:48
Speaker 3: sure he never has much of an opponent. They like
2:50
Speaker 3: to keep him in office and If you ask them, Republicans,
2:53
Speaker 3: why do you keep backing Schumer? And they'll tell you,
2:57
Speaker 3: I can wake this guy up at 3 in the morning.
2:59
Speaker 3: He'll do anything I want. So Democrats want him gone.
3:03
Speaker 3: President Trump getting a lot of flack because he shot
3:06
Speaker 3: off his mouth. You know, he does these rallies for
3:08
Speaker 3: like three hours. Three hours. And he says a million things,
3:12
Speaker 3: some of them brilliant, some of them funny, some of
3:15
Speaker 3: them crazy. And every one out of 200 times, he
3:18
Speaker 3: goes way over the line. And he's joking around about Iran,
3:23
Speaker 3: threatening to take out his city. And he's joking, oh, yeah,
3:26
Speaker 3: we'll take out L.A. or San Diego. It's a joke.
3:28
Speaker 3: It's a terrible joke. And you've got to remember, he's
3:32
Speaker 3: Howard Stern. It's Howard Stern. You know, when you listen
3:36
Speaker 3: to Howard Stern, all those years, brilliant, funny, what a
3:39
Speaker 3: great show. But then every so often, he goes so
3:41
Speaker 3: far over the line, you'd cringe. You'd go, oh, God,
3:43
Speaker 3: why did he have to say that? But that's what happened.
3:46
Speaker 3: So he said that. Let him take out Los Angeles.
3:48
Speaker 3: Let him take out San Diego.
3:51
Speaker 6: This is a very small price to pay, and it's
3:55
Speaker 6: going to be over very soon.
3:56
Speaker 3: It's essentially almost over with. Yeah, all right. Stupid joke.
3:59
Speaker 3: You're not supposed to make a joke like that. But, again,
4:02
Speaker 3: he's Howard Stern. It's a small price to pay. Now, yeah,
4:07
Speaker 3: everybody yelling about oil prices, gas prices. Let me just check.
4:10
Speaker 7: Hang on.
4:11
Speaker 3: Hang on.
4:11
Speaker 7: Wait one second.
4:14
Speaker 3: Oh, if you're a Democrat, cover your ears for a minute. Yeah,
4:18
Speaker 3: oil is still dropping. dropping a lot, down to 87.
4:21
Speaker 3: It's down about $ 15 a barrel in the last couple
4:25
Speaker 3: of weeks. It's down to 87. It went above 100 briefly,
4:31
Speaker 3: very briefly. This is nowhere near Joe Biden oil prices,
4:35
Speaker 3: and this is nowhere near Barack Obama oil prices. It's much,
4:38
Speaker 3: much lower. But 87 is pretty good. Even Brent Crude
4:41
Speaker 3: is under 100 now. So that's a good sign. Now,
4:45
Speaker 3: one of the reasons oil prices are up, a lot
4:48
Speaker 3: of it is diesel fuel. diesel fuel, and that has
4:51
Speaker 3: nothing to do with the Iran war. The diesel fuel
4:55
Speaker 3: price increase is because Russia has been unable to produce
5:00
Speaker 3: most of the diesel fuel they usually produce. That's a
5:02
Speaker 3: lot of the world market. And the reason is Ukraine
5:05
Speaker 3: has been bombing the hell out of Russia and specifically
5:09
Speaker 3: hitting their refineries. Ukraine now saying they've taken out half
5:13
Speaker 3: of Russia's refineries. So that's the oil. They've cut the
5:18
Speaker 3: oil output of Russia in half. And a lot of
5:21
Speaker 3: that's diesel oil. That's driven the price up. President Trump.
5:25
Speaker 8: For many years, farm vehicles, construction equipment and other off-road
5:30
Speaker 8: vehicles have used what is known.
5:32
Speaker 1: As red dye diesel.
5:34
Speaker 3: Do you know what that is?
5:36
Speaker 9: I don't know what the hell it is, but whatever
5:38
Speaker 9: it is, it's supposed to be very good.
5:40
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, it's diesel fuel is used also in all
5:43
Speaker 3: the trucks. And the problem is everything in every store
5:47
Speaker 3: is delivered by a truck. So if the fuel price
5:49
Speaker 3: goes up, the price of the goods goes up. But
5:54
Speaker 3: as I say, everything is coming down now and looking better.
5:58
Speaker 3: 87 is pretty low. Remember, it was like 107 a
6:01
Speaker 3: couple of weeks ago. So 87 is pretty low. The president, again,
6:06
Speaker 3: every day flying to another city, doing another rally. Today's Baltimore.
6:11
Speaker 3: Every day, he leaves the White House in the afternoon,
6:13
Speaker 3: flies to another city, does a rally, and the rally's
6:16
Speaker 3: not 20 minutes for him. It's three hours. You know,
6:19
Speaker 3: he gets all upset because of Fox News. Why aren't
6:22
Speaker 3: they covering my rallies? Why isn't this network covering? They're
6:25
Speaker 3: three hours. He can't give up three hours of programming.
6:28
Speaker 3: They do cover them, but they just take the highlights
6:30
Speaker 3: and run them. So, yeah. Now, midterms, it looks pretty
6:37
Speaker 3: good for the Republicans. Oh, I know, you keep hearing, oh,
6:39
Speaker 3: look how far behind, they're way behind. They're not as
6:41
Speaker 3: far behind as those polls make it out to be.
6:44
Speaker 3: Most of the polls totally rigged, the public polls. The
6:47
Speaker 3: wrong metrics, the wrong demos, deliberately. It's to suppress voter turnout. But,
6:54
Speaker 3: and that's why Republicans always outperform the polls, because the
6:57
Speaker 3: polls are rigged. President Trump running around, and this is
7:01
Speaker 3: where he usually wins. when he's behind a couple of
7:06
Speaker 3: weeks out, behind and has some momentum. And that's what
7:09
Speaker 3: they got right now. So that's the best place to
7:12
Speaker 3: be for Republicans. Be a little behind with momentum, you
7:16
Speaker 3: surge at the end and you win. Democrats peaked too early,
7:20
Speaker 3: big mistake, and that's not going to be good. And
7:24
Speaker 3: the important number, if you want to look at any numbers,
7:28
Speaker 3: in most of these states, the amount that the Republicans
7:31
Speaker 3: are behind is less than the amount that the Republicans
7:36
Speaker 3: usually outperform the polls. So they're actually doing pretty well.
7:40
Speaker 3: And again, President Trump always pulls a rabbit out of
7:43
Speaker 3: the hat in the last week of an election. Cornell University,
7:49
Speaker 3: student protests all over the place. If you're on the campus,
7:52
Speaker 3: students protesting like crazy.
7:55
Speaker 5: Here it is.
7:55
Speaker 3: Justice for Jacob! Justice for Jacob!
7:57
Speaker 1: Justice for Jacob!
8:07
Speaker 3: Now, you might be wondering what they're chanting. Who the
8:09
Speaker 3: hell knows? They just love to go outside and yell
8:12
Speaker 3: and scream, which is perfect because you don't have to
8:14
Speaker 3: go to class that way. Cornell students all upset.
8:17
Speaker 10: Were you in the group.
8:19
Speaker 5: Chat?
8:19
Speaker 7: Yeah.
8:20
Speaker 11: And none of you did.
8:25
Speaker 3: Now, Leticia James has been named the special prosecutor, which
8:30
Speaker 3: is absolutely ridiculous. She's not a prosecutor. She has never
8:34
Speaker 3: prosecuted a criminal case in her life, has no experience
8:38
Speaker 3: as a prosecutor, never prosecuted a criminal case. This is
8:42
Speaker 3: not the one to start on. And then worse than that,
8:45
Speaker 3: she's prejudged the case in writing publicly. She has declared
8:50
Speaker 3: them guilty. You can't prejudge the case like that. It
8:54
Speaker 3: doesn't sound good. It's going to be used against her.
9:00
Speaker 3: And don't be surprised if they do get her removed. Now,
9:03
Speaker 3: there's 28 days until the election. They'll do everything they
9:06
Speaker 3: can to stall all of this till after the election,
9:08
Speaker 3: because most likely Letitia James will get bounced off the
9:12
Speaker 3: case for prejudging it. The lawyer for the Cornell students
9:16
Speaker 3: already bringing this up.
9:17
Speaker 12: These are not allegations that should be tried on video
9:24
Speaker 12: on Instagram. These are very serious allegations. Attorney General James
9:31
Speaker 12: made very public posted Facebook comments that seemingly have prejudged
9:40
Speaker 12: or at least shown a bias towards the alleged victim
9:47
Speaker 12: in this case.
9:48
Speaker 7: Yeah.
9:48
Speaker 3: So how do you defend yourself if you're one of
9:51
Speaker 3: these students? Now, the other thing is there's a lot
9:54
Speaker 3: of misleading stuff. There's a lot of people like this
9:57
Speaker 3: idiotic AOC who's been making these crazy public statements that
10:00
Speaker 3: she was lured to the fraternity house. They drugged her.
10:05
Speaker 3: None of this is true. She was not lured there.
10:07
Speaker 3: She wanted to go there. Couldn't wait to go there.
10:10
Speaker 3: She voluntarily took drugs. If you read her statement, the
10:15
Speaker 3: victim statement, She says that she voluntarily took drugs. She
10:21
Speaker 3: got herself really drunk before she went there. Ten drinks.
10:25
Speaker 3: That's a lot of drinks for an 18-year-old. Ten drinks.
10:29
Speaker 3: Went there, voluntarily took another drink, voluntarily took drugs. She
10:34
Speaker 3: then admits that she voluntarily had sex with two guys there,
10:39
Speaker 3: that she wanted to do that. She wanted to have
10:41
Speaker 3: sex with both of them at the same time. One
10:44
Speaker 3: of them I hate to get graphic here. One of
10:48
Speaker 3: them wanted, well, he put the ketamine all over his erect,
10:56
Speaker 3: you know what, and then had her lick it off.
11:02
Speaker 3: She said she did this voluntarily. Now, this is not
11:07
Speaker 3: going to sound great in the courtroom. This is her
11:08
Speaker 3: statement that she gave. Now, she said it then, later
11:13
Speaker 3: it got out of control. as the drugs made her
11:16
Speaker 3: so woozy, and she said that other guys came in
11:21
Speaker 3: and got out of hand. But there are really only
11:25
Speaker 3: three guys that are being accused of rape here. The
11:30
Speaker 3: rest aren't. The rest, it was consensual. It was voluntary.
11:35
Speaker 3: Word got all over the campus about this. Now, the
11:38
Speaker 3: other part is she didn't report this, and she decided
11:41
Speaker 3: not to report it. And she waited a long time,
11:44
Speaker 3: many weeks. And then later, later went to campus cops,
11:48
Speaker 3: gave a long, long statement. And Cornell at the time
11:54
Speaker 3: did do an investigation. I mean, you know, you probably,
11:56
Speaker 3: in a serious matter, should bring in some real professional
12:00
Speaker 3: law enforcement, you know, prosecutor, investigator. But they used faculty and,
12:06
Speaker 3: you know, probably the Cornell attorney's And their investigation resulted
12:12
Speaker 3: in disciplinary stuff. Two of the students were expelled. They
12:17
Speaker 3: were kicked out of school. Two of them were suspended
12:20
Speaker 3: for two semesters. And then now you read how some
12:24
Speaker 3: of them didn't get a severe punishment, you know, but again,
12:28
Speaker 3: some of them weren't accused of any actual rape by
12:31
Speaker 3: her or anybody else. A couple of them did acknowledge
12:36
Speaker 3: the sexual contact. And as she testified in her, report
12:40
Speaker 3: to the police. It was voluntary. So this is going
12:43
Speaker 3: to be a mess of a case, absolute mess of
12:46
Speaker 3: a case. It's going to be a mess for Kathy Hochul.
12:50
Speaker 3: She's going to have to explain why she appointed the
12:52
Speaker 3: least qualified person on earth, Letitia James, because James has
12:56
Speaker 3: a history of politicizing everything. She's got no experience at
13:01
Speaker 3: all as a criminal prosecutor, none. And she's very, very,
13:07
Speaker 3: very partisan. Why did she appoint her? Well, it could
13:11
Speaker 3: be a couple of reasons. One, she needs her help
13:14
Speaker 3: in the election, so she appointed Letitia James. Letitia James
13:18
Speaker 3: has always been a big headline grabber, big headline grabber.
13:23
Speaker 3: This is the most high-profile case in the world right now.
13:26
Speaker 3: She might have called Hochul and asked and begged, demanded
13:31
Speaker 3: to be the prosecutor here. Now, remember, Letitia James is
13:34
Speaker 3: also up for re-election. So she might, by the way,
13:37
Speaker 3: vote for the Republican. You got to get rid of
13:39
Speaker 3: this Letitia James. But Letitia James is up for reelection.
13:43
Speaker 3: So this, she thinks, might help her in her election.
13:48
Speaker 3: And it's going to be a mess. It's going to
13:50
Speaker 3: be a mess. Now, not going to be good. This
13:53
Speaker 3: is not going to.
13:53
Speaker 7: Work out well.
13:54
Speaker 3: Hey, you remember that awful terrorist at Fort Hood? The
13:58
Speaker 3: guy was a military guy. He was an army officer.
14:03
Speaker 3: This is years ago. He was an army officer. And
14:07
Speaker 3: he became a terrorist. He became a radical terrorist. And
14:13
Speaker 3: at Fort Hood, he was on the base because he
14:15
Speaker 3: was an army officer. At Fort Hood, he went nuts.
14:18
Speaker 3: A terrorist attack. His name is Nadal Malik Hassan. He killed.
14:23
Speaker 3: He just started firing at everybody, shooting. He killed 12
14:27
Speaker 3: service members, one civilian, wounded 32 others. This is 2009.
14:31
Speaker 3: It's a long time ago. Fort Hood, Texas. He went
14:36
Speaker 3: on a total rampage terrorist attack, killed all kinds of
14:39
Speaker 3: people on the base. In 2013, the military court sentenced
14:44
Speaker 3: him to death. And it's time now to execute him. Well,
14:49
Speaker 3: Pete Hegseth, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, has recommended a
14:53
Speaker 3: firing squad. And President Trump has approved it. So this
14:58
Speaker 3: guy will face a firing squad. Now, if anybody deserves that,
15:03
Speaker 3: it's this guy. You know, there's been all this stuff
15:06
Speaker 3: about executions that don't work. Lethal injection didn't work on
15:10
Speaker 3: Krista Pike. And we see these numbers coming out to 3%
15:13
Speaker 3: of the executions don't work, whether it's hanging or electrocution
15:19
Speaker 3: or lethal injections. The one thing they know works is
15:22
Speaker 3: a firing squad. So this guy will face a firing squad.
15:25
Speaker 3: Believe it or not, they still have firing squads. I
15:29
Speaker 3: think is it four or five States still allow firing squad.
15:32
Speaker 3: So this guy will, We'll face one, and that's a
15:35
Speaker 3: good thing. Yankees lost last night. They're down two games.
15:41
Speaker 3: They lose one more game, they're out. They're facing the
15:44
Speaker 3: best team in baseball. They come back to Yankee Stadium.
15:47
Speaker 3: That helps. Home field advantage. But they can't beat Tampa
15:52
Speaker 3: Bay three times in a row. It's not possible. They
15:54
Speaker 3: can't do it. If they did, it would be the
15:57
Speaker 3: greatest miracle in the history of sports. They can't do it.
16:01
Speaker 3: Sometimes that's happened where you come back from two down.
16:03
Speaker 3: But it's always two evenly matched teams, not where one
16:07
Speaker 3: team is far superior. The Yankees lost because of just
16:10
Speaker 3: error after error after error. And you can't even single
16:15
Speaker 3: anybody out because they were all dropping balls or throwing wildly.
16:19
Speaker 3: But the Yankees lost last night. Now you've got second
16:21
Speaker 3: and third two out.
16:22
Speaker 1: The Yankees have a misplay and an error in this inning. Palacios,
16:25
Speaker 1: a bullet into center field. A base hit.
16:28
Speaker 13: One run is in.
16:29
Speaker 7: Simpson.
16:29
Speaker 9: Here comes DeLuca and hits the nine.
16:35
Speaker 1: DeLuca scores. Richie Palacios. Two RBI single makes it 5-1 Rays.
16:42
Speaker 7: Oh, God.
16:42
Speaker 3: It was rough. It was rough. So the next game
16:44
Speaker 3: is not tonight, right? It's tomorrow, Wednesday night. Wednesday night,
16:48
Speaker 3: tomorrow night, Yankee Stadium. But again, their chances of winning
16:53
Speaker 3: the series now drops to about 5%, maybe, maybe. Hey,
16:58
Speaker 3: we've got a lot to get to. Don't forget, I'm
17:00
Speaker 3: here 9 to noon every day. It's three hours every day,
17:03
Speaker 3: 9 to noon. We'll get to the 30th anniversary of
17:06
Speaker 3: Fox and a whole lot more coming up. Oh, also,
17:10
Speaker 3: we'll get to Jack Smith. He's been caught now in
17:13
Speaker 3: another just Awful, awful, awful thing that he should go
17:17
Speaker 3: to jail for. We'll get to that coming up on 710WOR.
17:23
Speaker 1: Now, nine till noon weekdays.
17:25
Speaker 14: Mark Simone.
17:26
Speaker 1: More Mark. On 710WOR.
17:30
Speaker 3: Well, hey, now, sometimes you go out of your way
17:34
Speaker 3: if you want to get fancy. You go somewhere better
17:38
Speaker 3: and you pay more for something. Now, for instance, one,
17:43
Speaker 3: I was, There was a Marriott hotel and it was
17:47
Speaker 3: a Ritz-Carlton hotel. And I'm talking to this snooty woman
17:50
Speaker 3: who was trying to get an appointment. She wants to
17:52
Speaker 3: go to the spa for a massage at the Ritz-Carlton.
17:57
Speaker 3: But they were booked. I said, well, why don't you
17:59
Speaker 3: go to the Marriott? They got a great spa. I
18:00
Speaker 3: wouldn't go to a Marriott. I go to the Ritz-Carlton.
18:05
Speaker 3: And she paid a lot more. So one day I'm
18:07
Speaker 3: talking to this, some woman at the Marriott. I'm talking
18:10
Speaker 3: to her. Turns out she's the masseuse. And it's like
18:14
Speaker 3: noon and she's leaving. I go, what, you leave at noon?
18:16
Speaker 3: That's an easy day. And she said, oh, well, in
18:19
Speaker 3: the afternoon, I work at the Ritz-Carlton. It's the same
18:22
Speaker 3: masseuse in both places. At the other place, you're going
18:26
Speaker 3: to pay 100% more, but it's the same exact masseuse. Now,
18:31
Speaker 3: here's the point of this. If you are one of
18:34
Speaker 3: these people, let's say you want chicken. You could go
18:38
Speaker 3: into just a regular supermarket and get some chicken. What
18:41
Speaker 3: do they have there? Purdue. You get some Purdue chicken. Now,
18:44
Speaker 3: some people, I don't get that. I go to Whole Foods.
18:48
Speaker 3: I get their special house brand at Whole Foods. They
18:52
Speaker 3: call it 365. People love to tell you that. They
18:55
Speaker 3: love to tell you. I go to Whole Foods. I
18:57
Speaker 3: get the 365 brand chicken. Well, now it turns out,
19:02
Speaker 3: who makes that? Do they make it at Whole Foods? No,
19:05
Speaker 3: it turns out they don't. They buy it. that Whole
19:07
Speaker 3: Foods 365 private label chicken is Purdue. It's the same
19:15
Speaker 3: Purdue you get in the supermarket. Purdue supplies the chicken
19:19
Speaker 3: for the private label Whole Foods brand. It's the same chicken, Purdue,
19:25
Speaker 3: by the way, you can get the same exact chicken
19:27
Speaker 3: made by Purdue, the same chicken is at Walmart, it's
19:30
Speaker 3: at Target, it's at Kroger. The difference is, If you
19:35
Speaker 3: buy it at Whole Foods, they charge 45% more for
19:38
Speaker 3: the same exact chicken. And that happens with a lot
19:43
Speaker 3: of stuff. So when you go think you're getting a
19:45
Speaker 3: special private label, it's made by uh, the people you
19:50
Speaker 3: don't want to get it from in the super, but it's,
19:52
Speaker 3: it's Purdue. It's very good chicken. There's nothing, nothing wrong
19:56
Speaker 3: with it. Uh, Jay Clayton has been appointed the AI
20:00
Speaker 3: czar by president Trump. He's actually perfect for this because
20:04
Speaker 3: a couple of reasons. One, he's got a lot of experience.
20:07
Speaker 3: He's the, uh, Director of National Intelligence. You need a
20:10
Speaker 3: guy with intelligence experience to figure out this AI battle
20:14
Speaker 3: between us and China. Keep an eye on that. Also,
20:18
Speaker 3: he was the U.S. attorney here. But he's not just
20:20
Speaker 3: a prosecutor. He was the head of the SEC in
20:24
Speaker 3: the first Trump administration. Longtime corporate lawyer. He's a very
20:28
Speaker 3: experienced guy with a lot of business knowledge. Perfect. Perfect
20:34
Speaker 3: for AI czar. The other thing is you're going to
20:38
Speaker 3: go into an era now of total AI hysteria with
20:42
Speaker 3: Bernie Sanders yelling and screaming. There's a couple of things
20:46
Speaker 3: going on here. Climate change doesn't work anymore as an issue.
20:51
Speaker 3: It's not fooling voters. You can yell and scream, we're
20:54
Speaker 3: all going to die. Climate change, we're going to be underwater.
20:57
Speaker 3: The glacier is going to melt. Well, they've been yelling
20:59
Speaker 3: this now 40 years. None of it ever happened. So
21:01
Speaker 3: it's not working on voters. So and this is all
21:05
Speaker 3: very carefully plotted. Obama has been working on this. They
21:10
Speaker 3: have these daily briefings from the Bonner group on K
21:13
Speaker 3: street and they lay out all this. So they, they
21:16
Speaker 3: came up with this AI scare to replace climate change
21:20
Speaker 3: that AI could kill us all. It's an old democratic thing.
21:23
Speaker 3: You come up with this boogeyman that's going to kill
21:25
Speaker 3: you and only the Democrats can stop it. Only the
21:28
Speaker 3: Republicans won't stop it. Only the Democrats could stop it.
21:31
Speaker 3: It's a, Fear tactic to get you to vote for them.
21:33
Speaker 3: That's one aspect of it. And the other one is
21:35
Speaker 3: the reason the AI companies want to play along. They
21:38
Speaker 3: would love to have a ton of government regulation. They
21:41
Speaker 3: would love to have a ton of red tape because
21:44
Speaker 3: then it keeps out any newcomers. These four or five
21:48
Speaker 3: AI companies control the whole thing now. It's a cartel.
21:52
Speaker 3: But there's new young companies rising up that could take over.
21:56
Speaker 3: And this is how the tech world works. You know, Facebook.
21:59
Speaker 3: was just a crazy college kid. MySpace was the social media.
22:05
Speaker 3: But then this little Facebook came and took it over.
22:08
Speaker 3: There were four big search engines. I'm trying to remember.
22:11
Speaker 3: Yahoo was the big search engine. There was AltaVista. Remember
22:14
Speaker 3: all this? Netscape. And then this little unknown company, Google,
22:18
Speaker 3: came and took it all over. So the AI guys
22:20
Speaker 3: don't want this to happen to them. They want a
22:22
Speaker 3: ton of regulation to keep any newcomers away, scare them away.
22:27
Speaker 3: In other words, Right now, the four companies control AI.
22:30
Speaker 3: They want to moat around them, keep everybody else out.
22:33
Speaker 3: So they're going to create this hysteria. And that's another
22:36
Speaker 3: reason Clayton is good. He's a very calm, level-headed guy
22:40
Speaker 3: who won't get caught up in any of this hysteria.
22:44
Speaker 3: That's good news. Hey, colleges are having a little trouble
22:48
Speaker 3: because of a couple of reasons. One, they've become these crazy, woke,
22:52
Speaker 3: left-wing indoctrination camps. You always hear these stories about these
22:57
Speaker 3: kids come back as crazed extremist left-wing kooks. And you
23:01
Speaker 3: hear these stories about an immigrant who fled socialism in Cuba,
23:07
Speaker 3: risked his life to get here, worked hard, made something
23:10
Speaker 3: of himself, became a success, sends his kid to college.
23:13
Speaker 3: The kid comes back a socialist. Everything the guy tried
23:17
Speaker 3: to get away from. You got that. Plus you got
23:19
Speaker 3: the tuitions are out of control. Absolutely ridiculous tuitions. And
23:26
Speaker 3: a lot of people are starting to realize you don't
23:29
Speaker 3: need a college education. It doesn't mean much of anything.
23:31
Speaker 3: I mean, if you're going to be a doctor or
23:33
Speaker 3: a lawyer, you need that education. But for everything else,
23:37
Speaker 3: they don't really teach you much. And, you know, if
23:38
Speaker 3: you're going to go into the business world, they don't
23:40
Speaker 3: really know that much in college. One of the smartest
23:43
Speaker 3: guys I've ever heard was doing interviews. He's one of
23:45
Speaker 3: the most successful executives in the world. And in the interview,
23:50
Speaker 3: he said, yeah, I went to college. I tried not
23:52
Speaker 3: to get too educated because I could see they didn't
23:54
Speaker 3: know what they were talking about. So that's the problem.
23:57
Speaker 3: And for a lot of people, the best thing is
23:59
Speaker 3: a tech school. You know, you get out of college
24:02
Speaker 3: with your liberal arts degree. All that entitles you to
24:05
Speaker 3: is to move back into your parents' house for 10 years.
24:08
Speaker 3: But you go to a tech school, Lincoln Tech, one
24:10
Speaker 3: of those great schools. You come out with a career.
24:12
Speaker 3: You're an electrician. You're HVAC. You're a plumber. And day one,
24:17
Speaker 3: you get out of college. You're making $ 150, 000 a year.
24:20
Speaker 3: Then $ 250, 000. It's a great alternative. So U.S. colleges now
24:25
Speaker 3: apparently slashing their prices. They realize they're in trouble. Some
24:29
Speaker 3: cutting prices, tuitions by 40% to 50%. They are losing
24:35
Speaker 3: a lot of applications. They're losing a lot of business.
24:39
Speaker 3: And colleges are a business. So they're slashing prices right now.
24:42
Speaker 3: That's good news. Hey, we've got a lot more to
24:44
Speaker 3: get to. We'll take some calls. It's Mark Simone here,
24:47
Speaker 3: 9 to noon, three hours every day, 9 to noon
24:50
Speaker 3: on 710WOR.
24:53
Speaker 9: Live from the WOR LifeVac studios.
24:59
Speaker 3: Hey, so we'll get to Jim Baker. Remember Jim Baker?
25:02
Speaker 3: Did you know he was still alive? He just died.
25:05
Speaker 3: We'll get to him. Remember this Tammy Faye Baker? Who
25:07
Speaker 3: was the woman he got caught with? Jessica Hahn? I
25:11
Speaker 3: think that was it. Yeah, we'll get to all of
25:12
Speaker 3: this coming up. We'll get to that silly Gavin Newsom
25:15
Speaker 3: and more. We'll take some calls. 800-321-0710 is the number.
25:18
Speaker 15: 800-321-0710.
25:18
Speaker 3: Let's go to Bill in Idaho. Bill, how are you doing? Hey,
25:21
Speaker 3: good morning, Mark. What do you think of this? On Amazon,
25:24
Speaker 3: it says customers who read.
25:38
Speaker 3: I can't really understand what you're saying, but I have
25:40
Speaker 3: a feeling I'm not missing anything. What time is it
25:43
Speaker 3: in Idaho? It's pretty early there, isn't it?
25:45
Speaker 16: It's 6.30 if you go east about a mile.
25:49
Speaker 3: 6.30? That's fascinating because it's 9.45 here.
25:54
Speaker 16: Anyway, on Amazon, it says customers who bought Chuck Schumer's
26:02
Speaker 16: anti-savagism in America also bought arsenic and razor blades.
26:09
Speaker 7: Oh, I see.
26:09
Speaker 3: That's supposed to be a joke.
26:10
Speaker 16: All right.
26:11
Speaker 3: Thanks for calling.
26:12
Speaker 7: Yeah.
26:12
Speaker 3: So Amazon, they recommend other things. It's always interesting. So
26:16
Speaker 3: his joke was whoever bought Chuck Schumer's book also ordered
26:21
Speaker 3: arsenic and razor blades. Well, it's a sick joke. Sick joke.
26:24
Speaker 3: But we know what you mean. That Chuck Schumer, he's finished.
26:30
Speaker 3: Absolutely finished. It's great watching his career just fizzle out
26:34
Speaker 3: and die. Let's go to Margie in the Hudson Valley. Margie,
26:39
Speaker 3: how you doing?
26:41
Speaker 17: Hi, Mark. This is Margie, the college professor. I call
26:43
Speaker 17: every once in a while.
26:44
Speaker 3: Oh, I remember you. This is a very, very, very
26:48
Speaker 3: smart woman. She's a college professor. And you told us
26:51
Speaker 3: once that sometimes you look out there at the class
26:54
Speaker 3: and you think, you know, 30% of these people shouldn't
26:56
Speaker 3: be here.
26:59
Speaker 17: No, that's incorrect. I would say 40%. 40% shouldn't be there.
27:01
Speaker 3: 40%.
27:04
Speaker 17: And Bill O'Reilly made a great point a couple of
27:06
Speaker 17: weeks ago, and you just made a comment a few
27:08
Speaker 17: minutes ago that I want to expand on. You're absolutely right.
27:14
Speaker 17: Everything you say about the teachers' unions and the way
27:17
Speaker 17: they defend ridiculousness in the classroom, and for anybody who's
27:22
Speaker 17: never heard me before, I've been teaching in colleges for
27:25
Speaker 17: a year. The dirty little secret, Mark, is that the
27:29
Speaker 17: administrators who've escaped from the front lines are the ones
27:34
Speaker 17: who handpick these socialist teachers, the ones who are going
27:39
Speaker 17: to pass everybody and won't.
27:41
Speaker 15: Say a word.
27:42
Speaker 17: And so that's where the problem lies. I've heard somebody
27:46
Speaker 17: else on the radio say, well, they should hire more
27:48
Speaker 17: conservative teachers. Well, they should. We could have a balanced curriculum,
27:56
Speaker 17: but they don't. And the reason is because the administrators
27:59
Speaker 17: don't want to be bothered, and this way all the
28:02
Speaker 17: kids pass. And it's really sad. And for anybody who
28:07
Speaker 17: thinks that it doesn't affect them going to college, well,
28:11
Speaker 17: guess what? Suppose you are a real student. You're sitting
28:14
Speaker 17: in a classroom next to students who don't want to
28:17
Speaker 17: be there, who are troublemakers, who are disinterested.
28:20
Speaker 3: No, that was me.
28:22
Speaker 17: I had an 18-year-old girl in my class once, September semester,
28:27
Speaker 17: and I was talking to her, and she told me
28:29
Speaker 17: she had two children already. I said, when did you
28:32
Speaker 17: have the last one? She said, last week. So this
28:35
Speaker 17: girl who already had two baby daddies and one child
28:39
Speaker 17: was one week old was in my classroom. Her head
28:41
Speaker 17: wasn't around learning. She wanted to be out of there.
28:45
Speaker 17: So even if you go to college and you say, well,
28:49
Speaker 17: I'm going to sit there and study, look who you're
28:51
Speaker 17: sitting next to. That's why I completely support Lincoln Tech
28:56
Speaker 17: and all the other trade schools because they're taught through
28:59
Speaker 17: the apprentice method. which is really what happens in the
29:03
Speaker 17: workforce and everybody gets right down to business.
29:06
Speaker 9: Yeah.
29:06
Speaker 16: All right.
29:07
Speaker 3: Margie, you're a great caller. We always love hearing from you.
29:10
Speaker 3: Thanks for calling.
29:11
Speaker 7: Uh, yeah.
29:12
Speaker 3: You know, the other thing is you get a college
29:14
Speaker 3: degree and what are you going to need this? I
29:17
Speaker 3: gotta be honest. It's been like, uh, 40 years and, uh,
29:21
Speaker 3: I've gotten a number of jobs. I got a job here.
29:23
Speaker 3: I got a job at WABC. I got a job
29:26
Speaker 3: at WNEW. I worked at the NBC radio network, the
29:29
Speaker 3: CBS radio, you know, and all these times where I
29:31
Speaker 3: got hired for every job. Nobody ever once asked me
29:36
Speaker 3: if I went to college. Nobody ever even brought it up.
29:38
Speaker 3: It never came up once. I, have a degree. I
29:40
Speaker 3: don't know where the hell it is. I haven't seen
29:43
Speaker 3: it in years. There are a lot of professions where
29:45
Speaker 3: you're really not going to need that degree. Let's go
29:47
Speaker 3: to Mike in Florida. Mike, how are you doing?
29:49
Speaker 18: Good morning, Mark.
29:51
Speaker 3: Yes, Mike.
29:53
Speaker 18: I always get a kick out of the newest fake outrage,
29:57
Speaker 18: this time about the president making a joke about L.A.
30:01
Speaker 18: And it'll be Republicans and their experts who will be
30:05
Speaker 18: the most outraged, but none of them have contempt for
30:09
Speaker 18: the Chuck Lorreys of the world. who recently said he'd
30:12
Speaker 18: like to see Trump dead, or Springsteen headlining a concert
30:16
Speaker 18: that basically every song is about seeing Trump dead, you know,
30:20
Speaker 18: the Foo Fighters included, or Phil Collins saying that the
30:24
Speaker 18: president isn't eloquent and elegant enough for his taste. Here's
30:28
Speaker 18: a guy who was in a rock band where they're,
30:30
Speaker 18: you know what, to underage groupies and doing drugs. But
30:34
Speaker 18: there he's outraged that the president isn't classy enough for it.
30:37
Speaker 3: Well, let's not forget Robert De Niro, who two days ago,
30:39
Speaker 3: it's up on my Twitter if you want to take
30:41
Speaker 3: a look at it, went into an unbelievable tirade calling
30:45
Speaker 3: for the death of Donald Trump. I can't play it
30:48
Speaker 3: on the air because it's all F-words. I can't play
30:50
Speaker 3: it on the air.
30:50
Speaker 18: That's right.
30:52
Speaker 7: Yeah.
30:54
Speaker 18: And again, our side, the Republicans are going to be
30:57
Speaker 18: the most outraged. They'll be the most vociferous about Trump
30:59
Speaker 18: shouldn't say these things. Meanwhile, they won't say anything about
31:02
Speaker 18: De Niro, who, by the way, has daddy issues, if
31:04
Speaker 18: you know what I mean, knowing his background. That's why
31:07
Speaker 18: he's so outraged at a tough guy like Trump.
31:11
Speaker 5: Yeah.
31:12
Speaker 3: He also yells in this tirade that Trump is a,
31:15
Speaker 3: that's the P word, it refers slang for a woman's
31:19
Speaker 3: body part.
31:19
Speaker 15: Yes.
31:21
Speaker 3: Is that kind of sexist, he's saying, if you're like
31:23
Speaker 3: a woman, that it means you're weak? Is that what
31:25
Speaker 3: De Niro was saying? Yeah, yeah.
31:29
Speaker 7: He thinks he's a street guy.
31:30
Speaker 18: That's what street guys do. You're a fake tough guy
31:34
Speaker 18: in a bar, and that's what you call each other. So,
31:36
Speaker 18: you know, a derogation.
31:39
Speaker 3: All right, Mike, thanks for calling. Let's go to Blauvelt,
31:43
Speaker 3: also in Florida. Blauvelt, how are you doing?
31:46
Speaker 5: Mark Simone, good morning, sir.
31:47
Speaker 19: How are you?
31:48
Speaker 5: Good.
31:49
Speaker 16: I think this weekend you should go out with a
31:52
Speaker 16: wicker basket and a pair of overalls and do a
31:54
Speaker 16: photo shoot in a strawberry patch.
31:57
Speaker 3: Yeah, these people go strawberry picking. They go apple picking. Oh,
32:01
Speaker 3: you know what? I am going to do that. I
32:02
Speaker 3: did that last year. I had a picture on Instagram.
32:06
Speaker 3: I put up a picture of me apple picking. Yeah,
32:08
Speaker 3: it was at the Whole Foods right over there in
32:09
Speaker 3: the Columbus Circle. You go in right in the front.
32:12
Speaker 3: They got 27 varieties of apples. Enormous selection.
32:16
Speaker 15: And you don't have to drive too far.
32:18
Speaker 3: No, you go over there. You know, they even give
32:19
Speaker 3: you a basket when you come in. You got a
32:21
Speaker 3: little basket. You walk over there. There's every kind of
32:25
Speaker 3: apple from all over the world. You pick whatever apples
32:27
Speaker 3: you want. You put them in the basket. They put
32:29
Speaker 3: it in a bag for you. You go home. You
32:31
Speaker 3: don't have to drive eight hours out to the end
32:33
Speaker 3: of Long Island.
32:34
Speaker 5: Exactly. One more thing, sir, if you don't mind. Instead
32:37
Speaker 5: of mailing out checks to everybody with this tariff money,
32:41
Speaker 5: why don't we pay down the debt?
32:44
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, we can do that, but we never pay
32:47
Speaker 3: down the debt. The debt's always going.
32:48
Speaker 11: To be there.
32:50
Speaker 3: The debt's always going to have this debt. Anyway, thanks
32:52
Speaker 3: for calling. Yeah, this apple picking. You got to, I
32:55
Speaker 3: don't know. Well, it's great. You get out in the country.
32:58
Speaker 3: You drive for four hours. Hey, I don't even have
33:01
Speaker 3: to go to that Whole Foods. Right next door, there's
33:04
Speaker 3: a Morton Williams. Open 24 hours. You go in there. Again,
33:08
Speaker 3: same thing. They give you a basket. There's 50 kinds
33:11
Speaker 3: of apples. Pick whatever you want. You know, when you
33:13
Speaker 3: go out to that.
33:15
Speaker 3: Orchard to pick the apples. They got like wormholes in them.
33:19
Speaker 3: They're dirty. They've got bugs. You know, you go into
33:22
Speaker 3: that supermarket, they shine it, they polish it, they put
33:25
Speaker 3: some wax.
33:25
Speaker 7: It looks beautiful.
33:27
Speaker 3: Much better apple picking there. You don't have to drive
33:29
Speaker 3: all the way out there. Same thing with strawberries. Just
33:32
Speaker 3: go to any great supermarket. They got all the strawberries
33:35
Speaker 3: you'll want there. Anyway, I'm here nine to noon every day.
33:38
Speaker 3: It's three hours every day, 9 a.m. till noon. Then
33:42
Speaker 3: at noon, you got Buck Saxton and Clay Travis, two
33:44
Speaker 3: great hosts together. You get twice as much. Then Sean
33:47
Speaker 3: Hannity at 3 o'clock, the most listened to radio show
33:51
Speaker 3: in America. You got Jesse Kelly, 6 o'clock every night.
33:54
Speaker 3: And you got the very funny Jimmy Fallon, who was
33:57
Speaker 3: talking about something this morning. Remind me to get to that.
34:01
Speaker 3: In the next hour, we'll do that. Coming up on 710WOR.
34:05
Speaker 1: The Mark Simone Show. Now 9 till noon weekdays. On 710WOR.
34:13
Speaker 3: Well, hey, it's actually fall. If you weren't sure, just
34:17
Speaker 3: go outside today. It's going to be cool today. The
34:19
Speaker 3: high will be low 60s. You'll actually need a jacket today. Now,
34:22
Speaker 3: it's going to be beautiful, bright sunshine for the whole week.
34:26
Speaker 3: I think Thursday gets back up to about 75. But
34:29
Speaker 3: most of the time in the 60s, no rain in
34:32
Speaker 3: the forecast for the whole week. That's good news. We've
34:36
Speaker 3: got a lot to get to in the next hour.
34:37
Speaker 3: We'll get to this evil, dirty Jack Smith. We'll get
34:39
Speaker 3: to Jim Baker. We'll get to Cornell again and a
34:44
Speaker 3: whole lot more. Mark Simone here, 9 to noon, three
34:47
Speaker 3: hours now every day, 9 to noon on 710WOR.
34:52
Speaker 7: Welcome back to the Mark Simone Show.
34:54
Speaker 9: Live from the WOR LifeVac studios.
35:03
Speaker 3: Well, hey, we got a lot to get to this hour.
35:06
Speaker 3: We got to get to Iran and we got to
35:08
Speaker 3: get to Jim Baker, Jack Smith and all that. Hey,
35:12
Speaker 3: we just got a huge memo about the ratings. Not
35:15
Speaker 3: just this station, this floor on this floor. We got
35:18
Speaker 3: like the six biggest radio stations in the world. And
35:22
Speaker 3: I just look at the morning numbers when I'm on and,
35:25
Speaker 3: you know, but they got memos about all the shows.
35:30
Speaker 3: And I heart totally, totally, totally dominant. You know, if
35:34
Speaker 3: you're listening in the morning, the most listened to radio
35:38
Speaker 3: shows in New York are all here. You got, uh,
35:41
Speaker 3: Elvis Duran down the hall. You got, uh, light FM,
35:45
Speaker 3: which is like the most single, most listened to radio
35:47
Speaker 3: station in America. You got the Q one Oh four
35:51
Speaker 3: Jim curves, like the biggest morning show right over there is, uh, uh,
35:55
Speaker 3: Charlemagne's over there. Power one Oh five, the breakfast club,
35:58
Speaker 3: huge numbers. And WOR, huge numbers in the morning. Curtis
36:04
Speaker 3: and Larry doing very well, beating their competitors where you
36:08
Speaker 3: want to beat them, which is the demo. That's the key.
36:13
Speaker 3: And 9 to noon, we're beating everybody and everything. It's
36:17
Speaker 3: very good. I got all the numbers here. Not allowed
36:19
Speaker 3: to read the actual numbers. You got to be a
36:21
Speaker 3: Nielsen subscriber to see all this. But we didn't win
36:24
Speaker 3: by 10%. by a lot. It's a huge percent, huge, huge,
36:30
Speaker 3: huge percentage. Thanks to you, the audience. Actually, I deserve
36:35
Speaker 3: a little credit too, but if you, if you weren't listening,
36:42
Speaker 3: if I got an Oscar, you know, they always get up.
36:44
Speaker 3: I want to thank this person. I want to thank
36:45
Speaker 3: that person. And, uh, you know, somebody should just get
36:49
Speaker 3: up there once and say, you know, it was mostly me. Uh,
36:51
Speaker 3: I got an agent, but, uh, I don't trust the guy. And, uh,
36:55
Speaker 3: We had a producer and a director. I've got to
36:57
Speaker 3: be honest. They were always getting in the way. They
36:59
Speaker 3: didn't know what they were talking about. No, but thanks
37:01
Speaker 3: to everybody for incredible ratings. This is for the month
37:05
Speaker 3: of September. And it just came out. That's why we're
37:08
Speaker 3: getting all these memos about everything. So, well, actually, the
37:14
Speaker 3: bad part of this, now we're going to have even
37:17
Speaker 3: more commercials. When you listen to this show, you say,
37:21
Speaker 3: why is the break so long? How come they have
37:23
Speaker 3: so many commercials? That's the problem when you get these ratings.
37:26
Speaker 3: That's why when you hear some shows, oh, it's much better.
37:29
Speaker 3: They only have two minutes of commercials. If you want
37:32
Speaker 3: to know what somebody's ratings are, just count the commercials.
37:35
Speaker 3: That'll tell you the whole story. Jack Smith. This guy.
37:43
Speaker 3: I didn't say this before, but this guy should go
37:45
Speaker 3: to jail. This guy really is a dirty... dirty, dirty cop.
37:50
Speaker 3: He had to testify about a week ago. He goes
37:52
Speaker 3: before Congress. He testifies under oath that there's nothing partisan
37:56
Speaker 3: about him, that whatever he did had nothing to do
37:59
Speaker 3: with politics. He's not partisan. He's not political. He doesn't
38:03
Speaker 3: take a side. He sat there all day testifying to that.
38:10
Speaker 3: Then this weekend, we see him at a No Kings
38:13
Speaker 3: rally in There's some big protest festival, protest festival. Not
38:17
Speaker 3: only is it the No Kings protest festival, he's wearing
38:21
Speaker 3: a No Kings T-shirt. And by the way, nobody has
38:25
Speaker 3: ever looked worse in a T-shirt than this Jack Smith.
38:28
Speaker 3: Put a jacket on. You don't look good in a T-shirt.
38:31
Speaker 3: And now stuff is coming out. And you're going to
38:34
Speaker 3: see this guy, the Senate committee will have to reexamine this.
38:38
Speaker 3: And most likely there'll be criminal referrals on this. Now,
38:42
Speaker 3: we know that he targeted President Trump. He has a
38:45
Speaker 3: history of being a hitman, Democratic hitman against Republicans. They've
38:50
Speaker 3: used him before for this. For instance, McDonald, the governor
38:53
Speaker 3: of Virginia, they got Jack Smith to come in, indict
38:56
Speaker 3: him and convict him on 10 charges. But like most
39:00
Speaker 3: Jack Smith cases, it went to higher courts, finally went
39:02
Speaker 3: to the Supreme Court, and they tossed it out. They
39:05
Speaker 3: said it was obviously just cheap political lawfare. Well, With Trump,
39:11
Speaker 3: we know it was the same thing. Every president leaves
39:14
Speaker 3: with classified documents. The difference with Trump, he left with
39:18
Speaker 3: fewer classified documents than anybody in history. Biden, in his house,
39:24
Speaker 3: in his office, in his garage, they found 8,000 classified documents. Trump, Mar-a-Lago,
39:32
Speaker 3: after searching every inch of it, they found 35 classified documents.
39:37
Speaker 3: And if you put them in a folder, the folder's
39:39
Speaker 3: one inch thick. You remember the pictures Jack Smith put out,
39:43
Speaker 3: these pictures of thousands of boxes, hundreds and hundreds of boxes? Well,
39:48
Speaker 3: only one inch of one box had any classified documents.
39:52
Speaker 3: This is all bad enough. Even worse, he didn't just
39:55
Speaker 3: raid Mar-a-Lago. He got authorization to use deadly force. This
40:02
Speaker 3: is in Mar-a-Lago with a bunch of old ladies. You
40:06
Speaker 3: go to Mar-a-Lago, it's just a bunch of old ladies
40:07
Speaker 3: in there. How are you? It's just, that's all that's there.
40:11
Speaker 3: Why would you need authorization to use deadly force? But
40:14
Speaker 3: at the time, it was the Biden administration. It was
40:17
Speaker 3: the dirty Attorney General Merrick Garland. They authorized all this. Well,
40:22
Speaker 3: now more is coming out. It turns out that besides
40:24
Speaker 3: all of this, Jack Smith was tracking Melania Trump, Barron Trump,
40:32
Speaker 3: Trump's chief of staff, Susie Wiles. And remember the time
40:36
Speaker 3: of this, Trump is just a private citizen. But he
40:39
Speaker 3: and the FBI, this is Christopher Wray, who's as dirty
40:42
Speaker 3: as can be. started tracking these people. They started seizing
40:47
Speaker 3: their phone records, looking at all their data, following them,
40:51
Speaker 3: literally following them. They want to know where they were
40:54
Speaker 3: every second. They tap their phones to see who they called.
40:59
Speaker 3: The phone logs are coming out. I'm looking at the
41:02
Speaker 3: Susie Wiles phone log. Every call she made, the length
41:05
Speaker 3: of the call, who she called. They tracked Melania. They
41:09
Speaker 3: tracked Barron Trump. Now, one of the things they used
41:12
Speaker 3: all this information for is they wanted to make sure
41:14
Speaker 3: to raid the place when Trump was not there, when
41:18
Speaker 3: Susie Wiles wasn't there. That's even dirtier. You want to
41:20
Speaker 3: raid their house when they're gone. It's like, remember The Sopranos?
41:25
Speaker 3: Remember that episode where the FBI is watching them and
41:30
Speaker 3: they wait for the moment when they're all out of
41:32
Speaker 3: the house. Nobody's in the house. Then they break in.
41:34
Speaker 3: This is dirty Jack Smith. So all the family trips
41:39
Speaker 3: were traced. Everywhere they went, they were followed. This is
41:43
Speaker 3: really dirty stuff. This whole surveillance was called, it was
41:47
Speaker 3: the Biden administration. It was a secret probe. It was
41:49
Speaker 3: titled Plasmic Echo. All right, now I keep telling you
41:55
Speaker 3: this Jack Smith is one weird, creepy guy. That's the
41:59
Speaker 3: proof right there. Who would name something Plasmic Echo? except
42:04
Speaker 3: some deranged lunatic who plays video games all deplasmic. Echo,
42:08
Speaker 3: what the hell does that even mean? Then Attorney General
42:10
Speaker 3: Merrick Garland signed off on all this dirty stuff. FBI
42:15
Speaker 3: Director Christopher Wray not only signed off on it, they
42:19
Speaker 3: found a handwritten note. Christopher Wray wrote a handwritten note
42:23
Speaker 3: to Garland encouraging to do this, encouraging to do this illegal, dirty,
42:32
Speaker 3: awful surveillance. on Trump, so a month ahead of the raid,
42:38
Speaker 3: unnamed special agent, an unnamed special agent, they found this
42:42
Speaker 3: in the files, within the FBI, within the Justice Department,
42:45
Speaker 3: were raising concerns that the Bureau had no legal authority
42:50
Speaker 3: to do this. They had no legal authority to raid
42:52
Speaker 3: the president's house, no legal authority to go in his
42:56
Speaker 3: bedroom or his office. The FBI carried out the raid,
43:01
Speaker 3: and it was the dirtiest raid imaginable. They came in
43:03
Speaker 3: with machine guns. They went through everything. They went through
43:06
Speaker 3: Melania's underwear. Can you imagine? This is like Polly Walnut's
43:10
Speaker 3: kind of stuff. They monitored everybody's calls. As soon as
43:14
Speaker 3: the raid was over, they were carefully monitoring everybody's calls
43:18
Speaker 3: to see who they called. They mostly called lawyers and
43:21
Speaker 3: stuff like that. Trump had a private cell phone. They
43:25
Speaker 3: were monitoring that. I mean, You could argue it's illegal,
43:31
Speaker 3: but it's the Justice Department doing it. So the fact
43:35
Speaker 3: that they're doing it, they can declare it legal, I guess.
43:39
Speaker 3: But it's certainly the most disgraceful abuse of government power.
43:43
Speaker 3: Even the White House said that. Spying on political opponents,
43:46
Speaker 3: the worst weaponization. This is Jack Smith, the White House saying,
43:52
Speaker 3: everybody responsible has to be held accountable. That's Jack Smith.
43:56
Speaker 3: And how the hell does Merrick Garland get away with
43:59
Speaker 3: all this? Because he stays hidden. You'll notice him. You've
44:02
Speaker 3: never heard from this guy. He's hiding under a rock
44:05
Speaker 3: ever since he left. But it's time now to have
44:09
Speaker 3: some criminal referrals on Jack Smith. He's been doing this.
44:13
Speaker 3: He's done this in the past. He's a hitman who's
44:16
Speaker 3: targeted Republicans in the past. He's got to finally pay
44:19
Speaker 3: for all of this. You know, there's a teacher in
44:22
Speaker 3: New York, in these New York City schools. This is
44:24
Speaker 3: a Brooklyn teacher. He got these left-wing kook teachers, these
44:28
Speaker 3: woke left-wing extremist teaching. But this one, this one has
44:34
Speaker 3: been praising Hamas for the October 7th attack. The October
44:40
Speaker 3: 7th attack on Israel was the ugliest thing since the Holocaust.
44:45
Speaker 3: It was a Holocaust on October 7th. It was the
44:48
Speaker 3: most awful genocide Holocaust where they took Israeli women and children.
44:54
Speaker 3: They raped the women, killed the babies. I mean, Just
44:57
Speaker 3: the most horrendous thing you can imagine. So this teacher
45:02
Speaker 3: in a New York City high school, PS77, is praising
45:08
Speaker 3: the guy who masterminded this attack. The Hamas leader, Yahya El-Sinwar,
45:15
Speaker 3: this teacher is praising him. There's a group chat, social media.
45:19
Speaker 3: This guy is saying, long live El-Sinwar. He's praising him.
45:23
Speaker 3: I mean, this is the most evil terrorist on the
45:25
Speaker 3: earth right now. who led the terrorist holocaust in Gaza.
45:29
Speaker 3: This teacher is praising him, but the parents are going nuts,
45:35
Speaker 3: absolutely nuts. They want this guy removed. It's almost impossible.
45:39
Speaker 3: You know, you can't remove these teachers because New York
45:42
Speaker 3: City won't do it. There's a union that won't do it.
45:45
Speaker 3: Jewish parents have yanked their kids out of not only
45:48
Speaker 3: this school, but other schools that have similar kind of teachers.
45:52
Speaker 3: Since the awful October 7th, they just are afraid to
45:55
Speaker 3: have their kids And a lot of parents demanding this
45:59
Speaker 3: guy be fired, this teacher. He's still there. Who would
46:03
Speaker 3: want this guy teaching their children? Who would want this
46:07
Speaker 3: guy in the same room with their children? This is
46:09
Speaker 3: absolutely awful. The city council yesterday having hearings on AI.
46:15
Speaker 3: You ever see these people on the city council? I mean,
46:20
Speaker 3: these city council members, these are a bunch of low caliber,
46:25
Speaker 3: not so bright. Not so savvy. So what do they
46:30
Speaker 3: know about AI? Well, they make some AI executives come testify.
46:34
Speaker 3: This is not like the White House or Congress where
46:36
Speaker 3: they have Zuckerberg and all the top AI CEOs. No,
46:39
Speaker 3: this is a bunch of low-end junior AI executives who
46:43
Speaker 3: come and testify. They're getting questioned and grilled.
46:48
Speaker 13: We do not know how to control any AI system yet.
46:51
Speaker 15: So....
46:53
Speaker 13: Any AI system that we build or perhaps more accurately
46:56
Speaker 13: that we grow, we don't fully control it. We don't
47:00
Speaker 13: understand its drives or why it does the things it does.
47:05
Speaker 13: That was the first thing that became apparent. The second
47:09
Speaker 13: thing is that.
47:10
Speaker 3: Now, remember, these are not the top CEOs of AI companies.
47:13
Speaker 3: These are like junior vice presidents. And there's Julie Menon.
47:17
Speaker 3: She's not bad. She's kind of common sense. She's the
47:20
Speaker 3: city council speaker.
47:21
Speaker 10: As you all four are under oath, we want to
47:24
Speaker 10: hear how each of you quantify the risk imposed by
47:29
Speaker 10: AI in the worst case catastrophic scenario.
47:33
Speaker 13: Yeah.
47:34
Speaker 3: And then there, but again, this is not high level hearings.
47:37
Speaker 3: These city council people don't know anything and they got
47:39
Speaker 3: like junior executives. It's not like the white house, you know,
47:45
Speaker 3: summit where they were, getting into the details of AI.
47:48
Speaker 3: The dangerous part of AI is the recursive self-improving part.
47:52
Speaker 3: That's where it could go out of control. That's going
47:54
Speaker 3: to break out of the sandbox, as they say. But
47:57
Speaker 3: they weren't getting into that level of detail. I don't know.
47:59
Speaker 21: I also don't think it matters.
48:03
Speaker 3: Yeah, now this is AI executive. What way to watch
48:06
Speaker 3: her when they're going to pounce on her? I don't know.
48:08
Speaker 21: I also don't think it matters whether it's 1% or 10%
48:13
Speaker 21: or a 20% chance that something catastrophic will go wrong.
48:19
Speaker 21: None of these levels is remotely acceptable. We should not
48:23
Speaker 21: train models that we cannot make an extremely strong case
48:28
Speaker 21: that we can keep under human control.
48:31
Speaker 3: All right, not a bad answer. I'm sorry.
48:33
Speaker 10: I'm sorry, but to say you don't know and it
48:36
Speaker 10: doesn't matter is flippant at best.
48:40
Speaker 3: It doesn't sound flippant to me. Now, what's really going
48:42
Speaker 3: on here? These AI companies have a lot of money,
48:48
Speaker 3: not millions. not billions. They've got trillions, trillions. In Washington,
48:55
Speaker 3: when the senators were giving them a hard time, they
48:57
Speaker 3: set up a super PAC right away with 30 million
49:00
Speaker 3: in it and immediately started passing it around to senators.
49:04
Speaker 3: And that's 30 million is nothing. It's $ 1. 50 for them.
49:08
Speaker 3: So they'll be setting up more PACs in Washington, 30 million,
49:11
Speaker 3: 40 million, 80 million, giving out the money real fast.
49:14
Speaker 3: That's why the city council is all over this. They
49:17
Speaker 3: want to harass the AI companies so that the AI
49:21
Speaker 3: companies set up some PACs here in New York and
49:23
Speaker 3: start passing out tons of money to the city council.
49:27
Speaker 3: So that's why they have all these guys testify.
49:28
Speaker 13: I think it is more likely than not that humanity
49:32
Speaker 13: loses control to these AIs and it could end in
49:35
Speaker 13: human extinction. From my experience, the companies are being extremely
49:39
Speaker 13: reckless given the stakes.
49:42
Speaker 3: Well, it sounds a little hysterical, but the guy has
49:44
Speaker 3: a British accent. If you have a British accent, you
49:48
Speaker 3: sound smart. A British accent is the best substitute for
49:53
Speaker 3: not knowing what you're talking about. Julie Menon, of course,
49:56
Speaker 3: all over this.
49:57
Speaker 10: If one of your frontier AI models goes rogue and
50:00
Speaker 10: causes serious financial harm, compromises sensitive data, causes physical injury,
50:06
Speaker 10: or contributes to a death or deaths, do you each
50:10
Speaker 10: believe your company bears legal responsibility?
50:13
Speaker 21: I believe that OpenAI takes its responsibility for safety very seriously,
50:20
Speaker 21: and we are responsible for developing and evaluating.
50:23
Speaker 3: So you can tell these are not the top AI executives.
50:27
Speaker 3: First of all, if AI is going to wipe us
50:31
Speaker 3: all out, kill everybody, I don't think they're worried about
50:33
Speaker 3: who bears legal responsibility. I think we're going to have
50:35
Speaker 3: bigger problems than that. We'll get back to this. We'll
50:41
Speaker 3: get back to these AI hearings. I don't know. We'll
50:43
Speaker 3: get to Cornell coming up. Hey, we'll take some calls next.
50:46
Speaker 3: 800-321-0710 is the number.
50:46
Speaker 15: 800-321-0710.
50:47
Speaker 3: Now, 9 till noon weekday. Smart. Simple. Only on 710WOR. Hey,
50:51
Speaker 3: let's take some calls. Let's go to Roberto in New York.
50:57
Speaker 1: Roberto, how you doing?
51:09
Speaker 5: I'm doing fine.
51:09
Speaker 19: How are you doing, Mark?
51:10
Speaker 3: I'm good. I'm good. What do you want to say, Roberto?
51:14
Speaker 22: Much of all, we got a great president. As much
51:17
Speaker 22: as all, he's going to stop Israel from getting tortured
51:22
Speaker 22: in a way in the near future and forever, possibly.
51:26
Speaker 22: As much as all, I'm not sure if Pakistan is
51:28
Speaker 22: going to get involved in this war, and then China
51:31
Speaker 22: is going to come in and try to get involved also.
51:35
Speaker 3: Very good, Roberto. You conflated like 11 things, but you
51:37
Speaker 3: sound like a great guy. Thanks for calling. Let's go
51:40
Speaker 3: to John in Norwalk, Connecticut. John, how are you doing?
51:44
Speaker 22: I'm good, Mark.
51:45
Speaker 19: How are you?
51:45
Speaker 3: I'm very good.
51:48
Speaker 5: Good. You were talking before.
51:50
Speaker 15: About apple picking and going to Whole Foods or Trader Joe's.
51:55
Speaker 3: Well, you're in Norwalk. You've got the best apple picking
51:57
Speaker 3: in Norwalk. Just go to Stu Leonard's. It's got a
52:00
Speaker 3: million apples in there.
52:03
Speaker 15: That would be fine, and I'd rush with the crowds
52:05
Speaker 15: and all that stuff.
52:06
Speaker 5: But you know what?
52:06
Speaker 15: Every year we make a trip out to Blue Jay
52:09
Speaker 15: Orchards up in Bethel, Connecticut, and I take– stop it. And,
52:15
Speaker 15: you know, I go with my best, my girlfriend, and
52:20
Speaker 15: my two children and my grandchildren, and we make a
52:23
Speaker 15: day of it. And it's just a great thing to
52:25
Speaker 15: get out there in the fresh air and the sunshine.
52:28
Speaker 15: and sometimes the rain, and then make ourselves sick eating
52:32
Speaker 15: their cinnamon donuts.
52:33
Speaker 3: Bethel's like an hour away from you.
52:37
Speaker 15: No, it's about, yeah, it's about maybe a half hour,
52:39
Speaker 15: 45 minutes.
52:40
Speaker 3: No, please. You'd have to go 95 miles an hour
52:43
Speaker 3: the whole way on those little roads. It's an hour
52:45
Speaker 3: away from you. Now, listen, I want you to take
52:48
Speaker 3: a five-minute drive, go to Stu Leonard's. He's got a
52:51
Speaker 3: million different apples there. They got sunshine. You've been there, right?
52:56
Speaker 3: Out in the parking lot, they got clowns, they got
52:59
Speaker 3: a circus, they got rides. Yeah, I was there yesterday.
53:02
Speaker 5: Okay.
53:02
Speaker 3: When did you just get your apples there?
53:05
Speaker 15: You are such a lazy person.
53:07
Speaker 3: No, I'm not a lazy person. Norwalk, you got... First
53:11
Speaker 3: of all, to get to Basel, you got to drive
53:14
Speaker 3: by Stu Leonard's. Then you got to drive by a
53:15
Speaker 3: Wegmans where they got a million apples. You got to
53:17
Speaker 3: drive through Westboro by Balducci's. They got 5,000 kinds of
53:20
Speaker 3: apples there.
53:20
Speaker 18: No, we.
53:21
Speaker 15: You go north of Westport, and it's a beautiful drive.
53:25
Speaker 15: You pass by the Saugatuck Reservoir. It's a fantastic ride.
53:30
Speaker 5: It's beautiful.
53:31
Speaker 15: It's country. It's New England. It's a great day to
53:35
Speaker 15: go out there and pick the apples with your friends
53:38
Speaker 15: and kids and whatever.
53:40
Speaker 3: Forget the apples. Are there any other days you go
53:41
Speaker 3: to Bethel? No.
53:45
Speaker 21: No.
53:48
Speaker 3: Forget the apples.
53:49
Speaker 5: I do.
53:49
Speaker 15: It's so beautiful. I actually go through Bethel when I
53:53
Speaker 15: go to see my children up in New Milford.
53:55
Speaker 7: Exactly.
53:55
Speaker 3: You're in Bethel, and you've got to speed right through.
53:57
Speaker 3: You don't even stop. Bethel's very nice, but forget the apples.
54:01
Speaker 15: You're impossible sometimes, Mark.
54:02
Speaker 3: No, I'm not. Well, thanks for calling, John. Good call.
54:05
Speaker 3: I'm just saying. I'm not saying don't go to Bethel.
54:08
Speaker 3: Don't go to Ridgefield, New Canaan.
54:11
Speaker 7: It's beautiful.
54:12
Speaker 3: But forget the apples. Get the apples at a supermarket
54:15
Speaker 3: and then just drive up there. You don't have to
54:16
Speaker 3: go pick apples. Just go to Bethel. There's a million
54:20
Speaker 3: other things to do. It's right next to Danbury. There's
54:22
Speaker 3: a million things to do in Danbury. There's millions of
54:25
Speaker 3: things to do in this. But you don't have to
54:26
Speaker 3: pick apples. What are you, a sharecropper? You don't have
54:29
Speaker 3: to go pick apples. Let's go to Tom in Queens. Tom,
54:32
Speaker 3: how are you doing?
54:34
Speaker 16: Hi, Mark.
54:35
Speaker 18: Good morning. I've got two questions for you.
54:37
Speaker 5: First thing.
54:38
Speaker 18: How would you compare AOS AI Coppola with Y2K? And
54:44
Speaker 18: the second question is, how would it affect Apple iPhones
54:47
Speaker 18: in the future?
54:49
Speaker 3: Very good question. Excellent question. Yes, you remember in 1999,
54:52
Speaker 3: there was a thing called Y2K because it was going
54:55
Speaker 3: to be the year 2000. It was going to be
54:58
Speaker 3: a new century. I can't remember exactly why, but they
55:02
Speaker 3: had convinced everybody. that because the year was going to
55:06
Speaker 3: go to zeros, that it was going to confuse every
55:09
Speaker 3: digital thing, every computer. Remember, you think I'm kidding. They
55:14
Speaker 3: were convinced that planes would drop out of the sky,
55:16
Speaker 3: that the whole electric grid would shut down, all this
55:20
Speaker 3: kind of stuff, Y2K. And it was hysteria for about
55:23
Speaker 3: a year or two or three. I used to be
55:25
Speaker 3: on the air saying, don't worry, nothing's going to happen.
55:28
Speaker 3: I used to get all kinds of people yelling and screaming.
55:30
Speaker 3: How could you say that? It's going to be the worst. Y2K,
55:33
Speaker 3: this happens all the time. As we always point out,
55:36
Speaker 3: this happened when electricity was invented. Everybody was hysteria. They
55:41
Speaker 3: thought it would kill us all. Electricity would be the
55:44
Speaker 3: most dangerous thing to humanity. And that's what caused the
55:47
Speaker 3: woman Mary Shelley to write the book Frankenstein about how
55:51
Speaker 3: electricity would create monsters that would kill us. So calm down,
55:56
Speaker 3: calm down. There may be some problems with AI, but
55:58
Speaker 3: you will be fine. Hey, when we come back, Howie
56:01
Speaker 3: Carr will be with us next. Lots to talk to
56:04
Speaker 3: him about. On 710WOR.

Speaker 3: it's not uh bumper to bumper yet right it gets
56:46
Speaker 3: crazy in a month no but.
56:48
Speaker 6: It's it's it's it's steamy for october but still that's
56:51
Speaker 6: uh that's better it's getting nippy in uh new england
56:54
Speaker 6: so i'd rather be down here any day of the
56:56
Speaker 6: week plus it's just once it stays late uh light
57:00
Speaker 6: an hour longer it's it's It's a better place to be, Mark.
57:04
Speaker 6: Someday you will realize that.
57:05
Speaker 3: No. With New England, you've got the leaves changing. It's
57:08
Speaker 3: the most beautiful time of the year in New England,
57:11
Speaker 3: isn't it?
57:12
Speaker 7: No. Yeah, but it's what comes after it, you know?
57:17
Speaker 3: Okay. Hey, I think Republicans are actually in a pretty
57:23
Speaker 3: good position for the midterms. You want to be a
57:24
Speaker 3: little behind right now with momentum. You surge at the end.
57:29
Speaker 3: That's how President Trump won both times. And I, don't
57:32
Speaker 3: you think he'll, he'll pull it off this time?
57:36
Speaker 15: Yeah.
57:36
Speaker 6: I mean, I, I don't, I mean, traditionally you lose,
57:40
Speaker 6: you lose some seats, right. Uh, the, the party that's
57:42
Speaker 6: in power in a midterm, but you know, I'm just,
57:45
Speaker 6: I was wondering about, uh, if you've seen, you've seen
57:48
Speaker 6: though that map of South America since the USA ID,
57:52
Speaker 6: they stopped, uh, you know, promoting, uh, transgender, uh, operas
57:56
Speaker 6: in Peru and all these, uh, you know, they were,
57:58
Speaker 6: they were basically using all these slush funds for left-wing
58:01
Speaker 6: groups to and the lefties have lost basically the entire
58:04
Speaker 6: continent of South America. I'm just wondering if the same
58:06
Speaker 6: thing is going to happen here to a lesser degree.
58:09
Speaker 3: Yeah.
58:10
Speaker 6: You know, I mean like the way they're going after
58:12
Speaker 6: act blue, I mean, act blue is just a kind
58:14
Speaker 6: of a domestic version of USA ID.
58:17
Speaker 7: Is it, you know, it's only, it's foreigners that are.
58:20
Speaker 6: Subsidizing leftists rather than American subsidizing foreign leftists in South America.
58:25
Speaker 6: It's a, I think they've put an end to a
58:28
Speaker 6: lot of this crap that's been going on. And the
58:33
Speaker 6: fact that we have hundreds of thousands fewer federal.
58:38
Speaker 7: Workers now, they now have to get real jobs.
58:42
Speaker 6: They have to go out and produce goods and services
58:45
Speaker 6: that people want rather than just trying to hassle people
58:48
Speaker 6: with small businesses and drown.
58:50
Speaker 7: Them in red tape.
58:52
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, I don't think it might be okay.
58:55
Speaker 6: You know, it might be okay. I hope the Republicans
58:59
Speaker 6: make a big deal out of these utility rates. I mean,
59:01
Speaker 6: we're in Massachusetts. You know, Mara Healy's trying to blame
59:07
Speaker 6: Trump for the fact that, you know, our … our
59:10
Speaker 6: kilowatt hour rate is 30 cents per kilowatt hour compared
59:15
Speaker 6: to 15 for florida and by the way new york
59:19
Speaker 6: is 29.9 cents compared again twice twice what florida is
59:24
Speaker 6: and they're trying to blame trump for all this stuff
59:26
Speaker 6: but trump is also the president of florida and And
59:29
Speaker 6: Utah and Tennessee, where it's even less than Florida. I mean,
59:33
Speaker 6: how do they get away with this? Blaming Trump for
59:36
Speaker 6: the utility rates.
59:37
Speaker 7: It's insanity.
59:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, here in New York, it was Andrew Cuomo who
59:40
Speaker 3: closed Indian Point. That was 25% of our electricity, which
59:44
Speaker 3: drove the cost up for everybody. So you can blame
59:48
Speaker 3: him for that.
59:48
Speaker 6: Yeah, in Massachusetts, I know, because I get electric. People
59:52
Speaker 6: show me the electric bills. I have a different municipal company.
59:55
Speaker 6: But they have 10 separate surcharges. And, you know, the
59:59
Speaker 6: transmission fee, the transition fee, the electric vehicle fee, you know,
1:00:05
Speaker 6: the meter fee. And, you know, so now Mara Healy
1:00:09
Speaker 6: is starting to feel the heat, the incumbent governor.
1:00:11
Speaker 7: So she kills one of the fees. So she kills
1:00:14
Speaker 7: it for two months. Wait a second.
1:00:16
Speaker 6: Wait a second, Mara. I thought we were saving the planet.
1:00:19
Speaker 6: I thought these were existential fees to prevent this.
1:00:24
Speaker 7: To prevent the.
1:00:25
Speaker 6: Polar bears from becoming extinct and, you know, to prevent
1:00:28
Speaker 6: the flooding of, of, of, uh, you know, Cape Cod.
1:00:32
Speaker 6: And now she just says, Oh, we're coming up on
1:00:33
Speaker 6: an election. I'm going to cut it. I'm going to
1:00:35
Speaker 6: cut the, uh.
1:00:36
Speaker 7: Solar renewable fee for two months. Wait a second.
1:00:41
Speaker 6: If two months, why don't we cut it for two
1:00:44
Speaker 6: centuries and see how we go?
1:00:47
Speaker 3: Uh, Hey, how we car, I have not talked to
1:00:48
Speaker 3: you about the Cornell, uh, the handling of it by
1:00:51
Speaker 3: the university. Uh, this, uh, governor here putting this goofy
1:00:57
Speaker 3: Letitia James in, who's never been a criminal prosecutor, never
1:01:00
Speaker 3: prosecuted a criminal case in her life. What do you think?
1:01:05
Speaker 7: I don't know.
1:01:06
Speaker 6: I mean, I remember well the Duke Lacrosse case, you know,
1:01:09
Speaker 6: that was fraudulent from day one. The woman who made
1:01:12
Speaker 6: the accusations now in prison for murder, the district attorney
1:01:16
Speaker 6: went to prison for a day or two.
1:01:18
Speaker 7: I mean, look at the UVA case. I mean, just
1:01:20
Speaker 7: totally fabricated.
1:01:22
Speaker 6: The story was too good for Rolling Stone to check
1:01:25
Speaker 6: I mean, there's more to it, more to this one.
1:01:27
Speaker 7: Than, than either Duke or UVA.
1:01:29
Speaker 6: But I mean, how do you, how do you get a,
1:01:32
Speaker 6: how are they going to get a conviction when they have,
1:01:35
Speaker 6: when they have her saying it was consensual? You know,
1:01:38
Speaker 6: I mean, doesn't that, aren't they going to get at
1:01:41
Speaker 6: least one or two jurors to, to say, you know,
1:01:44
Speaker 6: wait a second, how can you, how can you convict
1:01:46
Speaker 6: these people beyond a reasonable doubt if she said it
1:01:48
Speaker 6: was consensual? And, and the whole thing with Letitia James,
1:01:51
Speaker 6: I mean, That woman should be in prison. I'm with
1:01:54
Speaker 6: Trump on that one. I mean, this woman was elected
1:01:59
Speaker 6: that she was going to have a bill of attainder,
1:02:04
Speaker 6: a law that would only be enforced against Trump. I mean,
1:02:10
Speaker 6: maybe not technically a bill of attainder, but that's what
1:02:12
Speaker 6: it was. And that's how she got elected. And then
1:02:15
Speaker 6: she puts this Zimbabwean woman in charge of just going
1:02:19
Speaker 6: after Trump. And in the meantime, she's committed all kinds...
1:02:22
Speaker 6: kinds of mortgage fraud i can't believe how many of
1:02:24
Speaker 6: these democrats get away with mortgage fraud you know you
1:02:27
Speaker 6: got adam schiff you got uh eric swalwell you got
1:02:31
Speaker 6: letitia james you got the woman on the federal reserve
1:02:34
Speaker 6: lisa cook they're they're all claiming that you know they
1:02:37
Speaker 6: have two two primary residences i mean you know i
1:02:42
Speaker 6: i i know i couldn't get away with that i
1:02:43
Speaker 6: don't think you could either you know normal people can't
1:02:46
Speaker 6: but we're not democrats.
1:02:48
Speaker 3: Yeah Hey, also, she's never been a prosecutor, ever. She's
1:02:52
Speaker 3: never prosecuted a criminal case. Before this job, she was
1:02:56
Speaker 3: a city council person for years. She was a public advocate.
1:02:58
Speaker 6: That's a feature of these Democratic prosecutors, especially females. That's
1:03:02
Speaker 6: not a bug. None of them have ever prosecuted anything.
1:03:07
Speaker 6: And they're there, they check the box, and then they
1:03:10
Speaker 6: just come up. I mean, every press release you've ever
1:03:14
Speaker 6: seen from basically any prosecutor, local or federal, I know
1:03:18
Speaker 6: federal for sure, it's always been this way, Democrat or
1:03:21
Speaker 6: Republican administration, the last line is, all these charges are
1:03:25
Speaker 6: allegations and the defendant should be considered innocent until proven guilty.
1:03:30
Speaker 6: That's a standard feature, whatever the administration is. And she
1:03:36
Speaker 6: goes out there and just says they're guilty.
1:03:38
Speaker 3: I mean, what.
1:03:39
Speaker 7: you know, I think, I think first year law students
1:03:43
Speaker 7: would know better than to do that.
1:03:45
Speaker 3: Wow. Hey, uh, Howie Carr, your protege, Caroline Leavitt goes
1:03:49
Speaker 3: on to be white house press secretary. Now she just
1:03:51
Speaker 3: made a deal with the Fox. She'll be a contributor.
1:03:54
Speaker 3: Pretty good. Isn't it?
1:03:56
Speaker 6: Yeah, no, I think it's a good deal for her.
1:03:57
Speaker 6: You know, I, I mean, uh, what, you know, she's,
1:03:59
Speaker 6: she's still not even 30 years old. I don't, I
1:04:02
Speaker 6: don't know. You know, Fox news is going to make
1:04:04
Speaker 6: it to her retirement. You know, I think they're going
1:04:06
Speaker 6: down the tubes, like, like all the rest of, uh,
1:04:09
Speaker 6: you know, broadcast or cable media, but you know, it's
1:04:12
Speaker 6: a good move for her for right now. I mean,
1:04:14
Speaker 6: I think it'll, it'll, it'll really work out well. They'll
1:04:17
Speaker 6: probably build a studio for her down. She's got a
1:04:20
Speaker 6: place here in Florida and she's got a place in
1:04:21
Speaker 6: New Hampshire and she goes back and forth.
1:04:24
Speaker 7: And I think, I think she'll be really good. Yeah.
1:04:27
Speaker 14: Yeah.
1:04:27
Speaker 3: Oh yeah. And this is a very, very, very part-time job.
1:04:30
Speaker 3: When you're a contributor, you do it from home. You're
1:04:33
Speaker 3: on eight minutes, you know, three times a day. It's
1:04:36
Speaker 3: an easy job for her. She can still be with
1:04:37
Speaker 3: her kids.
1:04:38
Speaker 11: Yeah.
1:04:39
Speaker 7: Yeah.
1:04:40
Speaker 3: So, yeah. Fox News, by the way, 30th anniversary tomorrow.
1:04:44
Speaker 3: Pretty good. Pretty amazing.
1:04:45
Speaker 7: Yeah, I saw that. I saw that. But, you know, again,
1:04:49
Speaker 7: I think their glory days are behind them, though, Mark,
1:04:51
Speaker 7: don't you?
1:04:52
Speaker 16: Really?
1:04:52
Speaker 7: I mean, cable news is shedding subscribers so fast.
1:04:57
Speaker 3: Yeah, although Fox News holds up pretty well. You know,
1:05:00
Speaker 3: The Five is still doing $ 3. 5 million every day, and
1:05:03
Speaker 3: Prime Time's $ 3 million. CNN is down to like $ 400, 000, $ 500, 000.
1:05:07
Speaker 3: By the way, Paramount, Skydance, whatever the hell that is,
1:05:10
Speaker 3: that merger closed officially now. So what would you do
1:05:14
Speaker 3: with CNN? Would you change it? Would you switch it
1:05:17
Speaker 3: to some other format?
1:05:20
Speaker 7: I think you'd just let it slowly wither and die,
1:05:22
Speaker 7: don't you?
1:05:23
Speaker 5: Yeah.
1:05:24
Speaker 6: You know, you know, you don't, I don't think you
1:05:26
Speaker 6: need to, you know, I think part of the deal
1:05:28
Speaker 6: was the, uh, Ellison said they won't, they won't bring
1:05:31
Speaker 6: in the weed killer.
1:05:32
Speaker 7: They just won't forget to.
1:05:33
Speaker 6: Irrigate it every, every now and again. And it'll, it'll,
1:05:38
Speaker 6: it'll shrink, shrink and die of its own, own account.
1:05:43
Speaker 7: Don't you think?
1:05:45
Speaker 3: I like that. That's a good strategy.
1:05:47
Speaker 15: Yeah.
1:05:47
Speaker 3: Let it just be in last place forever just to
1:05:49
Speaker 3: embarrass itself out of business. That's, Good idea.
1:05:52
Speaker 6: Whenever the contracts come up, Anderson Cooper, we finished last
1:05:59
Speaker 6: paying you $ 10 million.
1:06:00
Speaker 7: We can finish last paying you $ 10, 000. Take it or
1:06:04
Speaker 7: leave it.
1:06:05
Speaker 3: I like that. Hey, everybody get Howie Carr's books. Is
1:06:10
Speaker 3: Mass Corruption 2 out yet?
1:06:12
Speaker 18: Right, it is.
1:06:13
Speaker 7: I sent you a copy. Oh, of course.
1:06:15
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have it. But it's released now.
1:06:18
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's released.
1:06:19
Speaker 6: Uh, you can get it on amazon.com or you can, uh,
1:06:21
Speaker 6: or you can get it at how we car show.com.
1:06:24
Speaker 6: You get an autograph copy. If you go to how
1:06:25
Speaker 6: we car show.com, click on store, but it's the same
1:06:28
Speaker 6: price either way. So check it out. It's, it's, uh,
1:06:32
Speaker 6: it's pretty, uh, a lot of rude stuff in there
1:06:35
Speaker 6: from the police. I just took, I just took the
1:06:37
Speaker 6: documents right out of the court files and, uh, But
1:06:41
Speaker 6: there's also some of my old columns in there, too,
1:06:43
Speaker 6: about the corruption.
1:06:44

1:07:33
Speaker 3: Hey, it's going to be a nice day today. Bright sunshine.
1:07:36
Speaker 3: In fact, bright sunshine all week long. But it's going
1:07:38

1:07:42
Speaker 3: low 60s today. So it's going to be cool. You're
1:07:44
Speaker 3: going to actually need a jacket today. But no rain
1:07:48
Speaker 3: in the forecast for the entire week.
1:07:49
Speaker 7: That's the good news.
1:07:50
Speaker 3: We'll be back after the news. Got a lot of
1:07:52

Speaker 1: The Marc Simone Show. Now nine till noon weekdays.
1:08:06
Speaker 16: 710WOR.
1:08:08
Speaker 3: Well, third and final hour. Don't forget, it's three hours
1:08:12
Speaker 3: every day. We now start at 9 a.m. The show's
1:08:14
Speaker 3: now nine to noon, three hours every day. You know,
1:08:19
Speaker 3: this crazy El Sayad is running in Michigan. What's his name?
1:08:24
Speaker 3: Omar Mohammed Abdul, whatever his name is. Al-Sayed, this crazy
1:08:28
Speaker 3: left-wing socialist. He's running in Michigan. But the big guns,
1:08:32
Speaker 3: the big names are coming out. Kamala Harris was there
1:08:36
Speaker 3: this weekend to campaign for him. Yesterday, AOC, believe it
1:08:42
Speaker 3: or not, that's a big respected name in the democratic world,
1:08:46
Speaker 3: out there campaigning for him. And now it's Obama. Obama
1:08:51
Speaker 3: will go out there and campaign. for El-Sayed. This guy
1:08:56
Speaker 3: was an extreme anti-Semitic disgusting candidate. Nobody thought he could
1:09:02
Speaker 3: even get the nomination, but he did. And the Democrats,
1:09:07
Speaker 3: I guess they're holding their nose, I think, and running
1:09:10
Speaker 3: out there to campaign for him. Obama looking for a
1:09:13
Speaker 3: little cover. So he's bringing a lot of other people
1:09:16
Speaker 3: for the same campaign. And he's making the other candidates
1:09:20
Speaker 3: show up, like the candidate for governor. They're making other
1:09:24
Speaker 3: candidates show up so it doesn't look like it's just
1:09:28
Speaker 3: an al-Sayyad.
1:09:30
Speaker 7: Rally.
1:09:31
Speaker 3: So Obama realizes he's got to try to put a
1:09:34
Speaker 3: little distance there. This al-Sayyad is becoming more and more
1:09:39
Speaker 3: mainstream to these Democrats, despite the deep anti-Semitism, despite the
1:09:44
Speaker 3: crazy socialist nonsense. There's only one guy that will, well,
1:09:48
Speaker 3: it's Rahm Emanuel. You know, remember that? He's a tired
1:09:53
Speaker 3: old guy from Clinton world. Rahm Emanuel. And all of
1:09:58
Speaker 3: a sudden he's emerged as a presidential candidate. I don't
1:10:01
Speaker 3: think he has any chance at all. First of all,
1:10:03
Speaker 3: he's too much from the past. He's way too from
1:10:07
Speaker 3: the past. The Democratic Party's moved on from him. But
1:10:10
Speaker 3: he got himself on the Sunday show. And when they
1:10:13
Speaker 3: asked him about Al-Sayed, listen to him, ham and haw.
1:10:16
Speaker 8: Will you endorse Abdul Al-Sayed?
1:10:18
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a complex issue.
1:10:19
Speaker 8: Will you endorse Abdul Al-Sayed? Do you support him, given
1:10:23
Speaker 8: that position? We have massive disagreements. I support the Democratic Party.
1:10:29
Speaker 8: I support the Democratic candidate. I'll be going to Michigan again.
1:10:32
Speaker 8: I've been there repeatedly to help the gubernatorial candidate.
1:10:35
Speaker 3: Yeah, but he won't say he supports Al-Sayed. Hey, you know,
1:10:38
Speaker 3: it's interesting. El Sayed needs help. He's bringing all the
1:10:42
Speaker 3: big guns in, as they say, Kamala Harris, AOC. And
1:10:45
Speaker 3: the big, big one is they're bringing in Obama. You'll
1:10:50
Speaker 3: notice they're not bringing in Bill Clinton. You'll notice there's
1:10:53
Speaker 3: no Hillary Clinton here. And if you're Bill Clinton up
1:10:58
Speaker 3: there in Chappaqua, you're getting pretty steamed because, you know,
1:11:02
Speaker 3: he still thinks he's the great figurehead of the Democratic Party.
1:11:06
Speaker 3: He still thinks he's relevant, that he's The ultimate Democrat.
1:11:10
Speaker 5: It's not.
1:11:11
Speaker 3: They've all forgotten about him. They've all moved on from him.
1:11:13
Speaker 3: He means nothing to them anymore. It's Obama. They want
1:11:16
Speaker 3: Obama there. They haven't asked Bill Clinton to record anything.
1:11:20
Speaker 3: They just think he's way in the past. I saw
1:11:25
Speaker 3: him the other day. He is not looking so good.
1:11:28
Speaker 3: I mean, he's a little frail. I mean, trouble walking.
1:11:31
Speaker 3: He had a couple of guys right next to him
1:11:33
Speaker 3: to make sure he didn't fall. Not in such great
1:11:36
Speaker 3: shape anymore. But, you know, he's got to be really
1:11:39
Speaker 3: up to it. Why haven't they called me? They haven't
1:11:42
Speaker 3: called me about the campaign. Anyway, hey, if you're the
1:11:48
Speaker 3: news media, if you're Democrats and Trump says something crazy, outrageous,
1:11:54
Speaker 3: you got to stop trying to make it a campaign issue.
1:11:57
Speaker 3: It doesn't work anymore. People are used to this now.
1:12:00
Speaker 3: This guy's been around in presidential politics for 10 years.
1:12:05
Speaker 3: Once in a while, he goes Howard Stern and says
1:12:07
Speaker 3: something outrageous. It happens. He was making a joke about it.
1:12:11
Speaker 3: Iran's going to bomb a city. Why don't you bomb LA?
1:12:13
Speaker 3: It's a terrible joke. You can't say that if you're president.
1:12:17
Speaker 3: But he says things like that. But don't try to
1:12:19
Speaker 3: blow it out of it. It's not going to mean
1:12:20
Speaker 3: anything to anybody. People are numb to it now. So
1:12:25
Speaker 3: believe it or not, in South Carolina, where Lindsey Graham's sister,
1:12:29
Speaker 3: Darlene Graham, is running for Senate. And she's a little
1:12:32
Speaker 3: behind right now. Listen, she's not the best candidate. I mean,
1:12:36
Speaker 3: as a campaigner. But she's running against Annie Andrews, and
1:12:41
Speaker 3: Annie Andrews is transgender. So Trump is there campaigning, and
1:12:47
Speaker 3: he's calling Annie Andrews the transgender. He's calling her Tranny Annie.
1:12:52
Speaker 3: All right, here's the Democrats, the fake news, going nuts,
1:12:55
Speaker 3: trying to stir this up into a huge issue. Listen
1:12:58
Speaker 3: to this big headline. Trump repeatedly used an anti-trans slur.
1:13:04
Speaker 3: repeatedly used an anti-trans, I guess you're not supposed to
1:13:07
Speaker 3: say tranny, I don't know, I have no idea, but
1:13:10
Speaker 3: I guess that's, you don't say that anymore, but if
1:13:13
Speaker 3: your name is Annie, and you're transgender, you know Trump's
1:13:17
Speaker 3: going to do that, you're tranny Annie, tranny Annie, tranny Annie,
1:13:20
Speaker 3: it's a technique he uses, where he just repeats something,
1:13:23
Speaker 3: gives you a nickname that labels you, repeats it a
1:13:27
Speaker 3: billion times, so that's all you think about when you
1:13:29
Speaker 3: think of the guy, it's brilliant actually, like, Sleepy Joe,
1:13:32
Speaker 3: Sleepy Joe, Sleepy Joe. I said that so many times.
1:13:35
Speaker 3: Whenever you see Biden, you think Sleepy Joe. The most
1:13:38
Speaker 3: brilliant one was Jeb Bush, who was so boring. You
1:13:42
Speaker 3: couldn't even make fun of the guy. There wasn't even
1:13:44
Speaker 3: a characteristic to make fun of. The guy was so drab.
1:13:48
Speaker 3: I don't know where he came up with it. He
1:13:50
Speaker 3: called him Low Energy Jeb, Low Energy Jeb, Low Energy Jeb.
1:13:53
Speaker 3: So whenever you looked at him, that's all you thought.
1:13:55
Speaker 3: Low Energy Jeb. And You start to think, it's subconsciously,
1:14:00
Speaker 3: you think, well, he's low energy. He's not going to
1:14:02
Speaker 3: get a lot done. So Tranny Annie, it just drills
1:14:05
Speaker 3: into everybody's head that she's transgender, which I would think
1:14:09
Speaker 3: to some South Carolina voters is going to turn them off.
1:14:12
Speaker 3: I mean, let's just be realistic. For some voters in
1:14:15
Speaker 3: South Carolina, it will bother them. So let's see here. Oh, Democrats,
1:14:22
Speaker 3: cover your ears for a moment. Yeah, oil is dropping
1:14:24
Speaker 3: even more. Oil down to $ 87 a barrel. Big, big
1:14:29
Speaker 3: drop from where it was. It's coming down. One of
1:14:31
Speaker 3: the reasons is we've got tons of oil moving through
1:14:34
Speaker 3: the Strait of Hormuz. We do, not Iran. Between the
1:14:38
Speaker 3: Strait of Hormuz, and we're now using some pipelines, we're
1:14:41
Speaker 3: getting about 17 million barrels out of there some days.
1:14:45
Speaker 3: That's pretty much pre-war levels. Here's Scott Besson.
1:14:48
Speaker 14: Right now, the score, in terms of barrels out of
1:14:51
Speaker 14: the Strait, U.S., about 1.1 billion, Iran, zero. For the
1:14:57
Speaker 14: first time in history, since they started pumping oil, they
1:15:01
Speaker 14: will have no oil on the water this week. They
1:15:05
Speaker 14: will have no revenues.
1:15:07
Speaker 3: Yeah. So during this period of the Iran conflict, we've gotten,
1:15:13
Speaker 3: what did he say? Was it $ 1 billion?
1:15:16
Speaker 14: Right now, the score, in terms of barrels out of
1:15:19
Speaker 14: the street, U.S., About 1.1 billion.
1:15:23
Speaker 3: 1.1 billion barrels. We've gotten a billion barrels of oil
1:15:27
Speaker 3: through the Strait. Iran, zero. That's a pretty lopsided score.
1:15:32
Speaker 3: That's worse than the Yankees in Tampa Bay. Next Yankee
1:15:36
Speaker 3: game is tomorrow night at Yankee Stadium. Ooh, they'll have
1:15:39
Speaker 3: the home field advantage, but I hate to break it
1:15:41
Speaker 3: to you. Tampa Bay, best team in baseball right now.
1:15:46
Speaker 3: The pitching is unbelievable. They're not going to beat Tampa
1:15:51
Speaker 3: Bay three games in a row, which they would have
1:15:53
Speaker 3: to to win. It's not going to happen. Yankees, a
1:15:57
Speaker 3: little better offensively last night, but endless errors. Just error
1:16:02
Speaker 3: after error after error. You can't win like that. It's
1:16:06
Speaker 3: not going to work. Hey, Fox News is celebrating its
1:16:09
Speaker 3: 30th anniversary tomorrow. The 30th anniversary of Fox News. Now,
1:16:14
Speaker 3: you've got to remember, this was 1996. And I'm trying
1:16:19
Speaker 3: to remember, when did CNN start? Was it the late 80s? Yeah,
1:16:25
Speaker 3: I don't know, late 80s. There was CNN. Ted Turner
1:16:31
Speaker 3: decided to start a cable network, and he came up
1:16:35
Speaker 3: with an idea of doing all news. Like 24 hours
1:16:38
Speaker 3: a day, you would do the news. Just one network
1:16:41
Speaker 3: that does news 24 hours a day. Well, everybody thought
1:16:44
Speaker 3: he was insane. They wanted to have him committed to
1:16:48
Speaker 3: never heard of such a thing. The only news on
1:16:51
Speaker 3: television was at the, you know, the 6.30 news. There
1:16:54
Speaker 3: was a six o'clock local news. Then at 6.30, there
1:16:57
Speaker 3: was the network news for half an hour. And then,
1:17:02
Speaker 3: you know, if you're watching NBC or one of those
1:17:04
Speaker 3: networks during the day with the game shows and every,
1:17:09
Speaker 3: so often there'd be like a little five minute or
1:17:11
Speaker 3: was it one minute news summary, little update with Edwin
1:17:14
Speaker 3: Newman or something like that. But that was it. You
1:17:18
Speaker 3: had the Sunday shows. But TV news was 6 o'clock news,
1:17:22
Speaker 3: 6.30 network news, and that was it. Oh, actually, there
1:17:26
Speaker 3: was Nightline, but that was more of a news talk show.
1:17:29
Speaker 3: But 24 hours a day of news was insane. And
1:17:33
Speaker 3: Ted Turner said, tried to explain this to people. He said,
1:17:37
Speaker 3: you know, they have these all-news radio stations. There was
1:17:41
Speaker 3: WINS in New York, WCBS in New York. There was KNX,
1:17:45
Speaker 3: Los Angeles. And he said these These 24-hour-a-day all-news radio
1:17:49
Speaker 3: stations do very, very well. They're often in the top
1:17:54
Speaker 3: three radio stations in their cities. So that's where he
1:17:58
Speaker 3: got the idea. And he wanted to do all-news, and
1:18:01
Speaker 3: he launched CNN. And it did okay. Not great. It
1:18:08
Speaker 3: wasn't dominating anything, but it did okay. Then the Gulf War.
1:18:14
Speaker 3: Remember Iraq invaded Kuwait. The Iraq War. And it was
1:18:21
Speaker 3: a big deal. And CNN was like 24-7 on the
1:18:26
Speaker 3: Iraq War. That's where it really took off and became
1:18:29
Speaker 3: really big. Everybody got to know everybody at CNN. They
1:18:32
Speaker 3: started to know who Wolf Blitzer was. Remember Peter Arnett,
1:18:36
Speaker 3: the war correspondent. And who was that great anchorman? Bernard Shaw.
1:18:41
Speaker 3: Remember Bernard Shaw? And there were a bunch of original
1:18:44
Speaker 3: CNN anchors. So they became really big and CNN started
1:18:47
Speaker 3: to do pretty well. Now, what do you do at night?
1:18:49
Speaker 3: You know, prime time, eight, nine o'clock at night. It's
1:18:52
Speaker 3: not a big time for news. So they, they put
1:18:55
Speaker 3: on a talk show. What was her name? Dr. Sonia,
1:18:59
Speaker 3: whatever the hell her name was. So it's a big
1:19:02
Speaker 3: talk show every night at nine o'clock. And, uh, she, she,
1:19:07
Speaker 3: Her agent was her husband. Now, whenever this happens, whenever
1:19:11
Speaker 3: the star lets her husband be the agent, it always
1:19:14
Speaker 3: ends in disaster because the husband has no business being
1:19:17
Speaker 3: the agent. And he doesn't know, you know, an agent
1:19:20
Speaker 3: has to know how to fight, negotiate with the network executive,
1:19:25
Speaker 3: but in a very nice business-like way. When it's the husband,
1:19:28
Speaker 3: they get carried away. Remember Suzanne Somers? Let her husband
1:19:32
Speaker 3: be the agent. Got her thrown off Three's company. It
1:19:35
Speaker 3: didn't work. Same thing happened with this Dr. Sonja. The
1:19:40
Speaker 3: husband has given Ted Turner a hard time. Ted Turner
1:19:43
Speaker 3: couldn't stand this guy. And Ted Turner had been friends
1:19:47
Speaker 3: with a guy named Larry King, a radio host who
1:19:49
Speaker 3: had done some TV shows. So he called Larry King.
1:19:53
Speaker 3: He said, could you take over? I want you to
1:19:56
Speaker 3: do this talk show every night at 9 o'clock on CNN.
1:20:00
Speaker 3: And Larry King said, well, maybe. I don't know. When
1:20:03
Speaker 3: do you want to start? He goes, like, tomorrow. He goes,
1:20:06
Speaker 3: I hate this Dr. Sonia. I want to just screw
1:20:08
Speaker 3: her husband and throw her the hell off. Anyway, he
1:20:12
Speaker 3: offered a lot of money. Larry King did it. And
1:20:14
Speaker 3: it became the single biggest thing in cable news. Larry King,
1:20:18
Speaker 3: every night at 9 o'clock, everybody watched it. It launched
1:20:22
Speaker 3: presidential campaigns. It's where people first got to know Bill Clinton.
1:20:27
Speaker 3: And Ross Perot launched his presidential campaign there. But remember,
1:20:32
Speaker 3: it wasn't just news on Larry King. It would be
1:20:35
Speaker 3: 20 minutes with Newt Gingrich. Then the next segment might
1:20:40
Speaker 3: be Tony Danza. It would be a comedian. It would
1:20:44
Speaker 3: be a politician. And then all the world leaders came on.
1:20:48
Speaker 3: The leader of every, because this is the biggest deal
1:20:50
Speaker 3: in the world, Larry King, every night at 9 o'clock.
1:20:53
Speaker 3: But then about 1996, they launched the Fox News Channel.
1:20:57
Speaker 3: A guy named Roger Ailes figured this all out. He
1:21:00
Speaker 3: hired a bunch of unknowns like Sean Hannity. and Alan
1:21:04
Speaker 3: Combs and Bill O'Reilly was pretty well known, but for
1:21:10
Speaker 3: other things, he's, it was on the CBS evening news.
1:21:13
Speaker 3: He was a correspondent. He did inside edition. That was
1:21:16
Speaker 3: a big show, but, and I, you know, the genius
1:21:21
Speaker 3: of ales, he just knew that O'Reilly would be perfect
1:21:24
Speaker 3: at this. And it turned out to be the number
1:21:27
Speaker 3: one show ever in cable news. And then Hannity totally,
1:21:31
Speaker 3: I know it turned out Hannity became, big star. Originally
1:21:34
Speaker 3: it was Hannity and Combs. And then they figured out
1:21:37
Speaker 3: somewhere along the line, we don't really don't need Combs.
1:21:38
Speaker 3: It could just be Hannity. Uh, and Fox, it was slow,
1:21:42
Speaker 3: but eventually it caught on, became the biggest thing ever.
1:21:45
Speaker 3: 30th anniversary tomorrow. Hey, you know who died? Actually, the
1:21:51
Speaker 3: big news is that he was still alive. Who had
1:21:53
Speaker 3: any idea he was still alive? Remember Jim Baker, the evangelist,
1:21:57
Speaker 3: the whatever he was with the, uh, you know, TV
1:22:01
Speaker 3: preacher and, uh, Turned out he made hundreds and hundreds
1:22:04
Speaker 3: and hundreds of millions of dollars. He was married to
1:22:06
Speaker 3: that crazy Tammy Faye Baker with the tons and tons.
1:22:11
Speaker 3: Remember all the makeup she wore? There was so much makeup.
1:22:14
Speaker 3: They made her join the painter's union. I mean, it
1:22:16
Speaker 3: was crazy. And then the guy gets caught in a
1:22:20
Speaker 3: hotel room with this floozy Jessica Hahn having an affair
1:22:24
Speaker 3: with her. The whole thing was devastating. Here's Jim Baker.
1:22:27
Speaker 23: Tammy and I have gone through a devastating time. Tammy
1:22:30
Speaker 23: started first with pneumonia, and then we went through the
1:22:34
Speaker 23: Betty Ford's program, and then this thing came and just
1:22:39
Speaker 23: crushed us so deeply, and we didn't want.
1:22:42
Speaker 1: To get in the fight.
1:22:43
Speaker 3: It was like a circus.
1:22:44
Speaker 1: We couldn't believe it.
1:22:45
Speaker 3: Well, it's his own circus, though, and he made a fortune,
1:22:48
Speaker 3: this guy Baker.
1:22:49
Speaker 23: In one week, I raised $ 30 million at one time
1:22:52
Speaker 23: last year, and Tammy's records and our books and all
1:22:56
Speaker 23: have brought in literally millions of dollars. And instead of royalties,
1:23:00
Speaker 23: we took a salary controlled by the board of directors. And, uh,
1:23:05
Speaker 23: I feel that, uh, we, we should have said, no,
1:23:08
Speaker 23: we just, we will not receive that.
1:23:11
Speaker 15: Yeah.
1:23:12
Speaker 3: I mean, a lot of places, a lot of the
1:23:13
Speaker 3: times I only take a salary of 50,000 a year.
1:23:16
Speaker 3: That's it. Uh, meantime, they charge everything in the world
1:23:20
Speaker 3: to the company. So their whole life is paid for
1:23:23
Speaker 3: millions and millions, but they only take a small salary. Uh, Hey,
1:23:26
Speaker 3: we'll take some calls next. 800-321-0710 is the number.
1:23:28
Speaker 15: 800-321-0710.
1:23:28
Speaker 3: It's the Mark Simone Show. Live from the WOR LifeVac studios. Hey,
1:23:33
Speaker 3: let's take some calls. 800-321-0710 is the number.
1:23:35
Speaker 18: 800-321-0710.
1:23:36
Speaker 1: Let's go to Bob in New Rochelle. Bob, how are
1:23:38
Speaker 1: you doing?
1:23:55
Speaker 15: I'm good.
1:23:56
Speaker 3: Mark yourself. Let me check. Let me check. Very good.
1:23:59
Speaker 15: I just want to check in and see how you're
1:24:01
Speaker 15: doing on that grueling 15-hour work week.
1:24:06
Speaker 3: It's the getting up early. I got used to doing
1:24:08
Speaker 3: three hours of talking. It's the getting up early that's
1:24:10
Speaker 3: killing me. It's more than a 15-hour work week.
1:24:14
Speaker 18: I know.
1:24:14
Speaker 5: I know.
1:24:14
Speaker 3: It's a lot of prep.
1:24:15
Speaker 15: I call for another reason. I might need you to
1:24:18
Speaker 15: talk me off the ledge here.
1:24:19
Speaker 5: August 1st.
1:24:21
Speaker 15: Socialism, communist crap. It seems like it's gaining some traction.
1:24:25
Speaker 15: Where do you think we're going to be? If Trump
1:24:27
Speaker 15: loses the midterms, he'll be a lame duck, and whoever
1:24:31
Speaker 15: the Republican candidate doesn't win after that, I think we're
1:24:34
Speaker 15: in a lot of trouble.
1:24:37
Speaker 3: Yeah, but remember, Trump is a lame duck. He's not
1:24:40
Speaker 3: a lame duck. You know him. He's always finding a
1:24:43
Speaker 3: fight back there.
1:24:44
Speaker 15: But when he's gone and out of office, I don't know.
1:24:46
Speaker 15: He's one of a kind.
1:24:48
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, that's the biggest problem. That is a big problem.
1:24:51
Speaker 3: Excellent point, Bob. Thanks for calling. It's a big problem
1:24:54
Speaker 3: for us. When Trump leaves, what the hell do we
1:24:59
Speaker 3: do all day on the air? What do we talk about?
1:25:02
Speaker 3: I'm trying to remember before Trump. It was June of 2015.
1:25:06
Speaker 3: He came down that escalator. Before that, what were we
1:25:10
Speaker 3: talking about? I don't remember. Did we talk about some
1:25:14
Speaker 3: bill in Congress? What did we talk about? It's going
1:25:19
Speaker 3: to be tough. You know, talk radio has boomed in
1:25:22
Speaker 3: the last 10 years. I mean, our ratings are bigger
1:25:25
Speaker 3: than ever. We've got more listeners. That's because of Trump.
1:25:28
Speaker 3: I don't know what we're going to do without this guy.
1:25:31
Speaker 3: Let's go to Michael on the east side. Michael, how
1:25:33
Speaker 3: are you doing?
1:25:36
Speaker 5: Good.
1:25:37
Speaker 3: Michael.
1:25:37
Speaker 18: Call us back.
1:25:41
Speaker 3: It's not you. It's the phone. It's always that line six.
1:25:45
Speaker 3: That's always the one that does that. Let's go to
1:25:48
Speaker 3: John in Westchester. John, how are you doing?
1:25:52
Speaker 11: I'm doing fine, Mark. It's great to talk to you.
1:25:54
Speaker 11: I have two things. If Trump wants us to win,
1:25:57
Speaker 11: what we have to do is annihilate Iraq. And I'll
1:26:01
Speaker 11: tell you, after seeing a picture of on the post
1:26:04
Speaker 11: of a man with what looks like his grandson on
1:26:07
Speaker 11: his shoulder, Americans have to worry about their grandchildren because
1:26:11
Speaker 11: this child will grow up hating Americans. That's number one.
1:26:15
Speaker 3: Well, you're not wrong, but try to fit that on
1:26:17
Speaker 3: a bumper sticker. It doesn't work. Anyway, what's number two?
1:26:20
Speaker 11: Number two is James is a white hater. To put
1:26:24
Speaker 11: her up there is a perfect move because she will
1:26:27
Speaker 11: do everything she can to help herself and everything that
1:26:32
Speaker 11: she does. She's a miserable person, and New Yorkers have
1:26:36
Speaker 11: to wake up and get rid of this beast.
1:26:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can vote Letitia James out of office in November.
1:26:42
Speaker 3: Vote for, oh, my God, what's her name? It's a
1:26:45
Speaker 3: hard name to remember. The Republican candidate for attorney general
1:26:49
Speaker 3: is very good, Camarita. Saritha Camarita, something like that. But
1:26:53
Speaker 3: vote for her. Letitia James is just a political, partisan person.
1:27:00
Speaker 3: Just an awful person, the last person in the world
1:27:02
Speaker 3: you want with any legal power. In fact, one of
1:27:05
Speaker 3: her prosecutors, somebody in her office, is now going public
1:27:09
Speaker 3: saying that the ridiculous lawfare against Donald Trump, the fake
1:27:14
Speaker 3: case they drummed up, there's confidential files that lay out
1:27:18
Speaker 3: this fake, ridiculous scheme they had to go after Donald Trump.
1:27:22
Speaker 3: And apparently, this guy is alleging, saying, but he worked
1:27:25
Speaker 3: in her office. He's a former prosecutor. said that Letitia
1:27:28
Speaker 3: James wanted him to destroy those confidential files and that
1:27:32
Speaker 3: he refused to. And he's saying that she then threatened
1:27:36
Speaker 3: him and kept threatening and menacing him, sending her investigators
1:27:40
Speaker 3: to his house to bang on his door to demand
1:27:43
Speaker 3: those files. But he is going public. So we'll see
1:27:47
Speaker 3: where this story goes. Let's go to Pat in Scarsdale. Pat,
1:27:51
Speaker 3: how are you doing?
1:27:52
Speaker 20: Very well, Mark. I know you're an expert on many things,
1:27:54
Speaker 20: particularly rock and roll. And Netflix now has this Eagles
1:27:58
Speaker 20: documentary out. It's a two-part documentary. In your opinion, do
1:28:02
Speaker 20: you think Don Felder was treated fairly by them?
1:28:05
Speaker 3: I've got to be honest. I know this is, I'm
1:28:07
Speaker 3: not supposed to say it. I've never been a big
1:28:09
Speaker 3: Eagles fan. I mean, I know they got more hits.
1:28:14
Speaker 3: Their Best Of album was like the number one bestseller.
1:28:17
Speaker 3: More weeks at number one than any album in the
1:28:19
Speaker 3: history of the world. I've never been that big. I
1:28:22
Speaker 3: can't even tell them apart. They all look the same.
1:28:25
Speaker 20: But this guy, he actually orchestrated Hotel California, their biggest song,
1:28:30
Speaker 20: and then a few months later, they kick him out
1:28:32
Speaker 20: of the band just because he wanted his fair share
1:28:34
Speaker 20: of the receipts.
1:28:36
Speaker 3: Who knows what goes on with these guys, but is
1:28:38
Speaker 3: it just me? There was something about that Hotel California.
1:28:42
Speaker 3: I don't know. I just couldn't. As a DJ, I
1:28:44
Speaker 3: loved it because it was six and a half minutes.
1:28:46
Speaker 3: It gave you a time to go to the little
1:28:48
Speaker 3: boys room. But I don't know. Witchy woman. Take it easy.
1:28:56
Speaker 3: Take it. I don't know. It just wasn't an Eagles fan.
1:29:00
Speaker 3: One of these nights. That was the only song I
1:29:02
Speaker 3: could actually listen to. You're not supposed to say this.
1:29:06
Speaker 3: And if I went down the hall to Q104, oh,
1:29:08
Speaker 3: my God, they'd go crazy if I said it. Not
1:29:11
Speaker 3: an Eagles fan. Just never was. Let's go to John
1:29:14
Speaker 3: in Ronkakamo. John, how you doing?
1:29:18
Speaker 5: Hey, Mark.
1:29:18
Speaker 16: Good.
1:29:19
Speaker 19: Turned 63 today.
1:29:21
Speaker 3: Oh, hang on. Let me see if the gift shop
1:29:23
Speaker 3: is open. It's your birthday. Well, all right.
1:29:27
Speaker 11: Yeah.
1:29:28
Speaker 19: Hey, so the point I wanted to make is isn't
1:29:31
Speaker 19: it bad enough that we have MSNOW and CNN making
1:29:35
Speaker 19: all these liberals crazy? Now we have Tucker Carlson turning
1:29:39
Speaker 19: people on our side crazy. I have more people saying
1:29:42
Speaker 19: that Trump is in the Epstein files.
1:29:49
Speaker 3: No, he's ridiculous. But it's nothing new. You always had
1:29:51
Speaker 3: those kind of things. They were always there before it
1:29:54
Speaker 3: was Alex Jones. Tucker's decided he'll be the new Alex Jones.
1:29:57
Speaker 3: He'll be the crazy. And believe it or not, there's
1:29:59
Speaker 3: an audience for that stuff. They got him on both sides,
1:30:02
Speaker 3: like really fringe lunatic characters. That's what Tucker became. It's
1:30:06
Speaker 3: kind of strange that he did that, but okay. Hey,
1:30:09
Speaker 3: when we come back, the biggest guy ever in the
1:30:11
Speaker 3: history of cable news, Bill O'Reilly will be with us next.
1:30:15
Speaker 3: Lots to talk to him about coming up on 710WOR.
1:30:19
Speaker 1: Mark Simone on 710WOR.
1:30:24
Speaker 3: Well, Bill O'Reilly, number one TV anchor for decades, number
1:30:28
Speaker 3: one best-selling nonfiction author on earth. You should get his
1:30:32
Speaker 3: latest book, Confronting America. It's an amazing book that takes
1:30:36
Speaker 3: you through a lot of recent history and a lot
1:30:39
Speaker 3: of great stories. It's Confronting America. You can get it
1:30:42
Speaker 3: right now on Amazon. You can also get it at BillOReilly.com.
1:30:47
Speaker 3: That's where you can get the TV show, the column.
1:30:50
Speaker 3: The podcast, we'll do it live. Some great stuff there.
1:30:53
Speaker 3: Everything's at BillOReilly.com. Bill O'Reilly, how you doing?
1:30:59
Speaker 7: I'm dizzy.
1:31:00
Speaker 5: I have so much work.
1:31:02
Speaker 17: It's unbelievable.
1:31:04
Speaker 5: At my age, I should be in a golf cart
1:31:07
Speaker 5: zipping around the villages.
1:31:08
Speaker 15: Okay.
1:31:09
Speaker 5: But nope. I'm fulfilling my obligations. How are you, Simone?
1:31:16
Speaker 3: I'm good. Hey, now, you were spotted at the White
1:31:19
Speaker 3: House meeting with President Trump. What was that all about?
1:31:23
Speaker 5: Yeah, I got summoned, and it's always good to see
1:31:29
Speaker 5: the White House. Been there under three presidents. You know,
1:31:34
Speaker 5: it's amazing coming from Levittown. I thought I would even
1:31:37
Speaker 5: get to Washington, D.C., much less inside the Oval Office.
1:31:42
Speaker 5: But in a conversation with the president and Secretary of
1:31:46
Speaker 5: State Marco Rubio about Iran, and they asked my opinion.
1:31:51
Speaker 5: I gave it to them, as I always do. No spin.
1:31:56
Speaker 5: And I think something's going to happen there. But I've
1:32:01
Speaker 5: been saying that for a while, so I'm not sure
1:32:03
Speaker 5: how much credibility I have on the issue.
1:32:06
Speaker 3: You mean something... Before the midterms or after the midterms?
1:32:10
Speaker 5: Well, it doesn't do the president any good after the midterms,
1:32:15
Speaker 5: politically speaking. So, you know, you've got this terror nation
1:32:23
Speaker 5: who is basically giving us the finger and saying, we're
1:32:26
Speaker 5: going to do what we want. They just withdrew from
1:32:28
Speaker 5: the U.N. nuclear treaty. I mean, they're doing everything they
1:32:34
Speaker 5: can to disrupt the world. Now, the world doesn't care
1:32:38
Speaker 5: or is too cowardly or whatever it may be, but
1:32:41
Speaker 5: we fell into this because the Trump administration believed they'd
1:32:44
Speaker 5: knock Iran out quickly, and that has not happened. But
1:32:48
Speaker 5: now I think they need to be punished, and I
1:32:52
Speaker 5: suggested knocking out the airport, knocking out all of their
1:32:57
Speaker 5: ability to ship anything anywhere. And that's pretty much all
1:33:02
Speaker 5: we can do unless we want to kill civilians, which
1:33:05
Speaker 5: the president does not want to do. Now, the other party,
1:33:09
Speaker 5: the Democratic Party, wants to surrender to Iran. That's just
1:33:13
Speaker 5: an outrage. We can't surrender to these barbarians. I mean,
1:33:17
Speaker 5: tomorrow is the anniversary of October 7th. You know that.
1:33:21
Speaker 5: And who was behind that Hamas attack in Israel?
1:33:24
Speaker 18: Iran.
1:33:26
Speaker 5: So, which was a surrender to these people? No, that's insane.
1:33:33
Speaker 5: Even though you're paying more for gas and food, we
1:33:36
Speaker 5: just cannot do that and maintain credibility all over the world.
1:33:43
Speaker 5: I mean, if we pulled out of there and didn't
1:33:46
Speaker 5: get anything out of this, Oh boy, would that be
1:33:49
Speaker 5: a disaster?
1:33:50
Speaker 3: Wow. Yeah, that's a good point. Uh, Hey, uh, Bill O'Reilly.
1:33:54
Speaker 3: So you were in the, uh, oval office. You've been
1:33:56
Speaker 3: there many times, different presidents. So, uh, be honest. The, uh,
1:34:00
Speaker 3: Current decor of the Oval Office, the decorating job there,
1:34:03
Speaker 3: it's a little Liberace-ish, isn't it?
1:34:07
Speaker 5: Good line. Good line. I think Liberace would be comfortable,
1:34:13
Speaker 5: but they've slimmed it down a little bit.
1:34:17
Speaker 3: Oh, good.
1:34:18
Speaker 5: Yeah, it got to the point now where they were
1:34:21
Speaker 5: having antique shows. But now they've slimmed it down. And
1:34:29
Speaker 5: it's magnificent. It really is. And, you know, you get there,
1:34:33
Speaker 5: and I've been all over the White House, and President
1:34:37
Speaker 5: Obama took me up to the Lincoln Bedroom and showed
1:34:40
Speaker 5: me the Gettysburg Address. I mean, it's just staggering for
1:34:44
Speaker 5: a person like me who is closely allied with my country,
1:34:48
Speaker 5: not a political party, but with my country itself. It's
1:34:51
Speaker 5: a magnificent building, and it's a privilege for me to
1:34:56
Speaker 5: be invited to go there.
1:34:58
Speaker 3: Now, when it comes to Donald Trump, you know him
1:35:00
Speaker 3: better than anybody. You literally wrote the book on him.
1:35:04
Speaker 3: If you study his career, he keeps getting bigger and
1:35:06
Speaker 3: bigger and bigger. He kept growing and getting bigger and bigger.
1:35:10
Speaker 3: When he leaves the Oval Office, when he leaves the presidency,
1:35:12
Speaker 3: he won't be able to do that anymore. What else
1:35:14
Speaker 3: can he do in life? It's going to be tough
1:35:16
Speaker 3: for him. He can't grow anymore.
1:35:18
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think he's going to launch a television network
1:35:21
Speaker 5: of some kind or media something. That's where I see
1:35:25
Speaker 5: him going. I could be wrong on it, but he's
1:35:28
Speaker 5: not going to be sitting around, uh, going to the
1:35:31
Speaker 5: Poconos every weekend. I mean, that's not going to be happening.
1:35:35
Speaker 5: So he's got, uh, a lot of real estate all
1:35:39
Speaker 5: over the world. You would assume that he will keep
1:35:41
Speaker 5: up with that. Um, but he's enamored with the media. And, uh,
1:35:47
Speaker 5: I think there's a Trump channel now. Nobody knows where
1:35:49
Speaker 5: to find it, but I wouldn't be surprised if he
1:35:52
Speaker 5: expands on that.
1:35:53
Speaker 13: Yeah.
1:35:54
Speaker 3: Um, Hey, a midterm elections, uh, The Republicans are a
1:35:58
Speaker 3: little behind, but that's not bad, as long as you've
1:36:00
Speaker 3: got momentum. Can he pull a rabbit out of his
1:36:03
Speaker 3: hat again this time?
1:36:05
Speaker 11: Yeah.
1:36:06
Speaker 5: It's certainly, if you look at the races individually, the
1:36:11
Speaker 5: Republicans aren't that far behind, as you pointed out. And
1:36:17
Speaker 5: if the president can get some kind of action going
1:36:20
Speaker 5: against Iran and convince the American oil companies... to take
1:36:25
Speaker 5: maybe two hundred percent proper quarter not three hundred percent
1:36:30
Speaker 5: three hundred percent profit on these things come on uh...
1:36:34
Speaker 5: and so if you can get that and people see
1:36:39
Speaker 5: that there is an improvement happening then the republicans will
1:36:44
Speaker 5: surprise because i don't know anybody in my circle who
1:36:49
Speaker 5: wants these radicals power do you know anybody i don't
1:36:53
Speaker 5: know anybody And I know thousands of people. I don't
1:36:58
Speaker 5: know anybody who wants these radicals to take over. That's
1:37:01
Speaker 5: why Hochul's having so much trouble. She's trying to brand
1:37:07
Speaker 5: Blakeman as Trump-lite and all that. But what else does
1:37:12
Speaker 5: Hochul have? What has she done for the state other
1:37:15
Speaker 5: than raise taxes and make it incredibly difficult for working
1:37:21
Speaker 5: people to live here? I mean, I'm waiting for anything, madam.
1:37:27
Speaker 11: Give me anything.
1:37:30
Speaker 5: And so the rational voter, responsible voter goes, oh, I mean,
1:37:34
Speaker 5: I like Trump. I mean, I like Blakeman. I don't
1:37:37
Speaker 5: like this style. I don't know what to do. But
1:37:39
Speaker 5: is this what you want? Is that what you want?
1:37:44
Speaker 5: And the kicker is when I'm doing my debates with
1:37:47
Speaker 5: Cuomo and News Nation or whatever, the people who see
1:37:51
Speaker 5: it another way, I always ask them, well, what is
1:37:54
Speaker 5: the Democratic Party's plan to drop prices? There is no plan.
1:38:02
Speaker 5: There's no plan. They don't have anything. Zero. Now, the
1:38:07
Speaker 5: Republicans don't have anything either. But if the Democratic Party
1:38:14
Speaker 5: gets power, you're going to see a real fierce movement
1:38:19
Speaker 5: towards socialism. You know, I don't know whether you noticed
1:38:23
Speaker 5: the riots in France last week with the students burning
1:38:26
Speaker 5: down all the schools and all that.
1:38:28
Speaker 9: Yeah.
1:38:29
Speaker 5: You see it?
1:38:29
Speaker 7: Yeah.
1:38:31
Speaker 5: It was nasty. That's coming here. That's coming here. Because
1:38:38
Speaker 5: these radical leftists, there's no restraint on them now, particularly
1:38:43
Speaker 5: if the Democratic Party wins and gets power. Who's going
1:38:47
Speaker 5: to restrain them? Chuck Schumer? I mean, I'm saying you
1:38:53
Speaker 5: can't surrender to terrorists in Iran and you can't elect
1:38:57
Speaker 5: a party that is going to give you Abdul Al-Sayed.
1:39:03
Speaker 5: Is that what you want? And most people just walk
1:39:07
Speaker 5: away from that debate. They don't engage because they know
1:39:10
Speaker 5: I'm right.
1:39:12
Speaker 3: If the Democrats lose, are they going to then go
1:39:16
Speaker 3: totally nuts, even crazier, erratic, or are they going to
1:39:19
Speaker 3: smarten up and clean up their party?
1:39:22
Speaker 5: I don't know about, you know, I don't follow either party,
1:39:26
Speaker 5: the internal. There's no leadership in the Democratic Party at all.
1:39:29
Speaker 5: So that's a big vacuum there. So Schumer would be
1:39:34
Speaker 5: maintaining his position as the leader of the Senate. Schumer's
1:39:39
Speaker 5: not going to do jack. Okay, he's going to sit
1:39:42
Speaker 5: there until he retires. And once AOC announces that she's
1:39:45
Speaker 5: going to run for the Senate, that's when Schumer will
1:39:48
Speaker 5: hang it up. So you're not going to get any reform.
1:39:52
Speaker 5: in the Democratic Party, even if they get whacked, because
1:39:55
Speaker 5: there's nobody at the top of it to steer that reform.
1:40:01
Speaker 5: On the Republican side, two years of Donald Trump. When
1:40:04
Speaker 5: he leaves, it's a free-for-all. In the meeting that I
1:40:08
Speaker 5: went to last week in the Oval Office, Secretary of
1:40:12
Speaker 5: State Rubio was in the meeting. It was the President, Rubio,
1:40:16
Speaker 5: and me. And I was impressed by Rubio. I have
1:40:20
Speaker 5: to tell you, He's got a good grasp of the world,
1:40:24
Speaker 5: and he's got a very calm demeanor. I'm not endorsing
1:40:28
Speaker 5: anybody anywhere, but in the past, I know him a
1:40:32
Speaker 5: little bit, but I hadn't spent as much time as
1:40:34
Speaker 5: I did on Wednesday.
