  Speaker 1: The Mark Simon Show, delivering the news before it is
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: on seven to ten wr.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Well, it's today, Thursday, it's one week until Christmas is
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: a week from today. Unbelievable. It's almost time for New
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Year's resolutions. It's almost time for a look back of
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: best of twenty twenty five? Can you believe it? The
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: year just flown by? So Nick Reiner was in court
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: with what tell that was he had on? It's they
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: call it a suicide vest. It's a weird blue thing
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: covering up. He had shackles on, and obviously a very
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: very dangerous, troubled guy. He's being held in isolation. He's
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: on suicide watch. They brought him into court basically only
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: said one thing. He only spoke once when the judge
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: said they agreed to delay until January, agent and all
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: that stuff, and then she said are you okay with
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: giving up your right to swift try? And he said, yes,
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: you're on it. It's the only thing he said in
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: court that day. This attorney has Jackson is one of
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: the top top top Los Angeles criminal attorneys. Handled a
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: lot of big, big cases. It said, if you want
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: to hire this guy on a murder charge and get
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: defended by him. It's about a million bucks, so I
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: would assume the family is paying for it. Here's the attorney. Afterwards,
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: You're set.
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: For January seventh, foreign arraignments. That's the next court date.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: And that's all I have to say at this point.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: Well, so the kid will be locked up until then, dangerous,
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: dangerous kid.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: We asked that during this process you allow the system
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: to move forward in the way that it was designed
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: to move forward, not with a rush to judgment, not
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: with jumping to conclusions, but with restraint and with dignity
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: and with the respect that this system and this process
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: and that the family deserves.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Very well said, but I got to be honest, I'm
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: going to rush the judgment on this one. I am
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: going to definitely jump the conclusions with this deranged psycho kid.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: I will rush the judgment on this one. But that's
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: what you do for a million dollars. You sound good
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: and you make these speeches, but I really don't know
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: how they I mean, you know what, I would assume
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: in the end, they're going to have DNA evidence that
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: will absolutely convict this kid through a hard DNA evidence.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Although it is Los Angeles where they have screwed up
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: more cases. You remember the OJ case was lost because
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: they didn't properly secure the evidence. Remember they had the
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: blood all over them. Do you remember OJ. He had
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: blood on his golf hand glove, He had blood on
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: his socks, He had blood in his bedroom, he had
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: blood in his washing machine. The blood was every place,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: but they collected it and then they didn't remember. They
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: didn't secure the evidence properly. Remember that detective was his name,
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: Van Adder. How's that for a memory? Had to admit
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: under oath that he put it the test tube with
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: the blood, He had it in his sport coat pocket
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: for a week before he vouchered or something like that.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: They just screwed it up. So anything can happen in
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Los Angeles. Now, in the Brown University shooting, it turns
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: out this Brown University has got one really bumbling, stupid president.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: Her name is I forget what her name is. But
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: in fact there's talking now of hauling her in front
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: of Congress and making you testify about how badly run
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: Brown University was. You know, I kept pointing out the
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: security director. I don't like his resume. He's got twenty
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: thirty years of school safety but you know, somewhere else
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: he was a director of security at a school. Somewhere else,
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: he was a patrolman. But on a school a security force.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: You know, you'd like to get a guy from real
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: law enforcement, a real ex. I would hire an ex
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: NYPD captain or something like that, or somebody with some
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: real law enforcement experience, because if you look at Brown University,
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: they have no clue to what happened here. They can't
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: give you a video of the guy. All they got
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: that one video you see is somebody's ring doorbell thing
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: from three blocks away. What the hell kind of campus
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: does not have surveillance cameras everywhere? The restaurants have them everywhere.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: We have, we got them all over the hallway. Look
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: around here, go down the hall, turn the corner. That's
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: like you got to pass twelve security cameras. How does
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: the university with a bunch of crazy kids, how do
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: they not have surveillance cameras? They just don't. This Brown
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: president and Brown University, her name, I forget her name,
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: and then she's blaming the gun violence, gun violence. We have.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: The gun didn't cause the problem. The shooter did. And
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: you don't have surveillance cameras, so we can't get a
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: picture of the guy.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: The shooter is responsible. Horrific gun violence, took the lives
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: of these students and hospitalized others. And it's deeply sad
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: and tragic that schools across the country or targets of isolence.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Brown is no exception.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: She's gonna get hauled in front of Congress. And I've
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: testified on her oath. She's get three million a year,
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: three million a year and doesn't have a proper head
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: of security, does not have surveillance cameras, all the necessary equipment.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: Her background, well, she's an economist. Well there you go.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: An economist, not the good kind, not the Steve More kind.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: This is like the academic economists. You know, they're just
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: sitting in a university somewhere and never make contact with
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: the real world. Oh, actually she did. Look she was
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: at Princeton, an economist at Princeton. Okay. New York Times
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: is this New York Times is the most incoonfident, bumbling
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: partisan disturbing details from the New York Times stunning Trump investigation,
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: Trump Epstein investigation. This is the New York Times published
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: its most comprehensive investigation yet to President Trump's relationship with
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Jeffrey Epstein. Now, there's not much of a relationship. They
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: knew each other for a couple of years when he
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: was a first a zillionaire and he came to Pond
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Beach and was throwing money around. He joined mar A Lago.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: And whenever you run a resort, a hotel, a club,
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: if a new guy in town's got zillions of dollars,
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: then he's spending like crazy at Coortia, and he becomes
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: a memory of club, of coursing over. You say hello,
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: you go to his parties, you invite him to stuff.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: Perfectly normal happens all the time. Times they had to
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: admit in the little fine print, all the Times found
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: no evidence implicating Trump in Epstein's sex trafficking crimes. But
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: but they did it so with their investigation reveals a
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: social and personal relationship far beyond what has been acknowledged. Now,
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: what are they based that, Well, they based this on
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: they were going through Epstein's stuff, and he had a
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: copy of Trump's book, The Art of the Comeback, very
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: good book, by the way, one of his best. It's
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: out of print, but it's a great book. But in
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: the book, which was nineteen ninety seven. That's how long
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: ago Trump knew Epstein. He broke up with him right away.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: He found that the guy was creepy and got rid of him.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: But in nineteen ninety seven he gave Trump a book
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: and he inscribed the book. He autographed it to him.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: And this is the what their New York Times is
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: basing this on, that he was much closer than we think,
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: because he wrote in the book. Guess what he wrote
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: to Jeff, you are the greatest? Donald, ha ha. They
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: got him you are the great Well, I hate to
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: break it to you. I got a copy of the
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: Art of the Comeback from nineteen ninety seven, and guess
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: what he wrote in my book, the same thing, you
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: are the greatest. I hate to break it to your
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: New York Times. I could show you twenty letters I
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: have from him through the years where that's what he
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: writes at the end. I got a million notes from
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: him that he always writes you are great or you
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: are the greatest. It's just standard for him. It doesn't
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: mean anything. It shows you absolutely nothing about their relationship.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: I mean, I could go back to the nineties where
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: you know, i'd m see a dinner forum or and
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: he'd send you a note you were a great MC,
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: thank you so much, and then underneath it would be type,
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: but underneath you would write with the big sharpie you
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: are the greatest Donald. It's just standard. He does that
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: for everybody. So of course the New York Times never
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: really investigates, or they would have checked that out and
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: gotten to the bottom of that and realized they had
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: nothing there. You remember the kiss cam at the Patriots Stadium,
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: the kiss cam scandal. It was Coldplay the concert and
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: the big CEO is out with an employee. They've gone
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: to a concert and that kiss cam. You know how
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: many people are in that stadium, fifty thousand, It just
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: zooms around and picks out somebody. What are the odds
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: that it would land on these two who are having
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: an affair, cheating, not supposed to be out there and
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: are holding each other arm in arm and she had
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: to resign. I guess he had to resign. Well, she's
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: finally speaking out for the first time ever. She's finally
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: speaking out, and she spoke out and gave an interview.
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: I'm reading the interview. I don't really know what how
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: she's saying. It's kind of vague, She said the sixteen
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: second public display of affection with her then boss left her.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: She says it left me as a meme and unemployable.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: She had not been able to get another job. She says,
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: what does this mean? I made a bad decision. I
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: had a couple of high noons and danced and acted
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: inappropriately with my boss while admitting he was her big
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: happy crush. What does that mean I made a bad
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: decision and had a couple of high noons. Does that
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: mean she was like Gary Cooper getting in a gunfight?
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: Or what does it mean? Does it mean high noons?
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: Does that mean in the middle of the day I
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: went to like a motel or something. I don't know.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: I guess that's what it's supposed to mean. And it's
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: not nothing. I took accountability. I gave up my career
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: for that. That's the price I chose to pay. I
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: don't think she chose that. I think that's how it
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: ended up. But coming forward, I don't know why. I
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: guess is she going to have a book deal? Does
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: she want to get on the view? She says, I'm
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: not a celebrity. I'm just a mom from New Hampshire.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: Even if I did have an affair, it's not anybody's business.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: It has been like a scarlet letter. People erased anything
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: and everything I've accomplished in my life and achieved in
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: my career. This can't be the final word. Okay, I
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: guess what it is. She hasn't been able to get
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: a job, so this is she's gonna And she's not wrong.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: You know everything else fails, go public, get a lot
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: of attention, so you can get a job out of it,
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: she said. Instead, I became a meme and unemployable. I
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: was the most recognized. Oh no, I was the most
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: maligned HR manager in HR history. Well yeah, Actually, if
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: you're the HR manager, aren't you supposed to be watching
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: for this kind of thing and stopping it, not doing
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: it yourself? Yeah? Hey, mom, Donnie. Two weeks from today,
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: is that New Year's Day? Yeah? Two weeks from today
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: takes office, the last two weeks of Eric Adams. Two
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: weeks from today, Mam Donnie is sworn in. Now. The
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: biggest thing everybody's worried about, obviously, is crime number two
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: would be these homeless camps all over the place. Uh,
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: here's some good news, some good news. The US attorney
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: Southern District, that's the most powerful US attorney's office. The
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: current US attorney's a guy named Jay Clayton. He's great,
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: really great Jay Clayton. He has quite a career. You know,
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: he was the SEC chairman in Trump's first term. Donald
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: Trump likes him a lot, talks to him constantly. And
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: j Clayton as the US attorney. You know, in the
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: Southern District, they're usually going after some big fraud case,
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: or they're going after some big corporation, some big drug
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: trafficky whatever, big big stuff. But Clayton has said he
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: and his office and this is good news with mom
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: Donney company. He said, he and his office will focus
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: on street crime. And they can do this. They can
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: do this. They can do a great job. And these
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: federal guys are even better. Sometimes they'll go after drugs,
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: they'll go after guns, they'll go after violence, they'll go
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: after all kinds of crime. Reason I say they're better.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: NYPD is great. But problem with the NYPD. They'll do
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: a great job, but then it goes into a New
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: York City court, a New York City judge and New
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: York City jury, and you know, he goes to Alvin Bragg,
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: Local DA, and all these people do is let the
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: criminals back out in the street. Now, in the case
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: of Clayton, it's federal. It goes to a federal prosecutor
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: and they don't let everybody go. They'll actually lock them up.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: And as Clayton said, the one thing we do know
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: is if you keep letting the criminals back out, you're
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: going to have a crime wave. If you'll lock them
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: up and keep them locked up, crime drops dramatically, he says,
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: we know from studies repeat violent offenders, continuous custody is
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: the thing that reduces crime the most. Rudy Giuliani did
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: a little of this when he was mayor. They used
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: to have one day a week would be Federal Day
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: where the cops would go out there and have federal
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: officers with them, so the cops could break the case,
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: find the criminal, and then hand them over to the
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: Feds because they could make sure he got locked up,
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: unlike locals here with the das that we have the
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: crazy ones. So that's very very good news. And apparently
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: Trump is on board with this. So if it does
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: start to have if there is starting to be a
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: crime problem, you'll see the Feds step in on the
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: streets of New York and start arresting criminals and making
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: sure they don't get out. Very good news. And Bongino
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: is going to leave as FBI Deputy director. It's been confirmed.
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: The replacements are a couple of guys. They're just you know,
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: career FBI guys. So, but Bongino has already cleaned out
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: his desk. He will officially stay until January and then
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: he'll leave. President Trump said Dan did a great job.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: I think he wants to go back to his show. Yeah,
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: I don't blame him. You know. The problem is being
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: the deputy director. Basically you're just running day to day operations,
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: which if you're in that business, it's a great job.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: But if you're you know, I gotta be honest with you,
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: it's much more fun doing this, you know, going on
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: TV and being on the radio and doing broadcasting. It's
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: a lot more fun than sitting in an office all
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: day doing FBI business. And for a lot of these
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: guys that leave, I don't know how they do it,
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: you know, I mean, it's fun, you know, it's great.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: All you do is have fun all day in broadcasting.
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: So Bongino wants to get back to that. Hey, you
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: know this assisted suicide thing where you can decide you
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: want to die and get the medical aid and dying.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: You know, it's like doctor suicide. You can do this,
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: And Canada did it. They legalized it in twenty sixteen.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: In fact, within five years, doctor assisted suicide became one
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: of the top five causes of death in Canada. So
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: they're pushing this in New York and Kathy Hochel surprised
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: everybody by getting on board with this. You want to
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: commit suicide, you want to die, you can go to
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: the doctor and have him suicide. You Kavorki in you Now,
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: why would Hochel suddenly get it? Why would she want
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: to be Well, the insurance companies are pushing this like crazy.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: In fact, they've been spending a lot of money, spending
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: a ton of money donating to politicians. They want this
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: because it'll save them a fortune. Now, who would want
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: to go commit suicide? Well, somebody who's got a terrible
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: illness that's going to choir you know, catastrophic medical care. Well,
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: if you don't want to go through that, you'd rather
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: just commit suicide. It's you know, for you, you think
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: it's better for the insurance company. It's a hell of
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: a lot better. You know that your insurance medical bills
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: could be ten million bucks by the time you're done
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: twenty years later. So the insurance company would love to
