Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Yew it is no Mark Simon Show on sevent ten, lor.
- 0:10Speaker 2: Hey, welcome to the Big Show. We got a lot
- 0:12Speaker 2: to get to today. We'll get to Don Lemon and
- 0:15Speaker 2: Kimmel last night. We'll get to the super Bowl, Bad Bunny,
- 0:19Speaker 2: Steve Tish, We'll get to Mom Donnie. The complaints are
- 0:23Speaker 2: growing and growing and growing. We'll get to the Kennedy Center,
- 0:27Speaker 2: the Clintons, and a whole lot more. President Trump making
- 0:30Speaker 2: some big changes in ice procedures. He's for the body cameras.
- 0:35Speaker 2: They'll now be wearing body cameras. I guess they'll start
- 0:38Speaker 2: with Minnesota. This is not going to be good for
- 0:41Speaker 2: the protesters. Now you'll see right up close how crazy
- 0:47Speaker 2: they get. Because when you watch it on the news,
- 0:50Speaker 2: all you see is the incident where the shot is fired.
- 0:53Speaker 2: You don't see the half hour lead up of the
- 0:55Speaker 2: protesters acting like craze lunatic. So the body came will
- 0:59Speaker 2: record all of that. You'll get to see that pretty soon. Hey.
- 1:01Speaker 2: By the way, speaking of all that, I'm looking at
- 1:05Speaker 2: what Apple is working on, what they're gonna come out
- 1:08Speaker 2: with next year. One thing is the ring. There's gonna
- 1:11Speaker 2: be an Apple ring. You know you wear your watch
- 1:13Speaker 2: and it records your sleep and tells you all kinds
- 1:15Speaker 2: of health things. Some people like that Aura ring. Forget that.
- 1:19Speaker 2: Apple's gonna come out with their own ring. But here's
- 1:21Speaker 2: the other thing they're coming out with Apple and this.
- 1:25Speaker 2: Everybody thinks this will be like the big, big, big
- 1:28Speaker 2: product for next year. Apple is coming out with body cameras.
- 1:32Speaker 2: I mean real, super high quality. It's called an aipin.
- 1:36Speaker 2: It's about I don't know, two three inches by two
- 1:39Speaker 2: three inches, a little square thing with a clip, so
- 1:42Speaker 2: you clip it on to the front of your body,
- 1:45Speaker 2: onto your jacket or whatever, and it's got a camera microphone.
- 1:48Speaker 2: It will record everything you see just as you see it.
- 1:52Speaker 2: So you'll have your own body cameras. So let's say
- 1:54Speaker 2: you're going to some event or something you want to
- 1:57Speaker 2: you want to take pictures, video record some of the moments.
- 2:01Speaker 2: Let's say you're going to look at the tree in
- 2:03Speaker 2: Rockefeller Center and you want to take this. You just
- 2:06Speaker 2: wear this thing. It'll be on continuously. Then later you
- 2:09Speaker 2: can go over the video. You'll have the whole experience
- 2:12Speaker 2: on video. This is expected to be a huge product,
- 2:15Speaker 2: but we got sidetracked for a moment. So Body cameras
- 2:18Speaker 2: would be good on ICE agents. ICE agents getting all
- 2:23Speaker 2: kinds of flak from left wing cooks all over America.
- 2:26Speaker 2: In a couple of places, they went into a gas
- 2:28Speaker 2: station and the gas station refused to serve them, refused
- 2:32Speaker 2: to give them gas because they were ICE agents. In
- 2:36Speaker 2: one case at a speedway, even the manager yelling at
- 2:38Speaker 2: them to get out. Speedway is owned by seven eleven.
- 2:44Speaker 2: Calls are made to seven eleven. We'll see what they do.
- 2:47Speaker 2: This happened with the Hilton in a hotel or two,
- 2:49Speaker 2: and Hilton fired everybody involved. We'll see if that, if
- 2:52Speaker 2: that happens here. So more and more is coming out
- 2:57Speaker 2: now about the funding of these protests. You know, ICE
- 3:00Speaker 2: is running much bigger operations in thirty five other cities.
- 3:04Speaker 2: No problem, peaceful, orderly. Why in this one place of
- 3:08Speaker 2: these crazy lunatic protesters all over the ICE agents, Well,
- 3:13Speaker 2: I mean some of it could be organic, but most
- 3:15Speaker 2: of it is paid for. And as we've been telling
- 3:18Speaker 2: you for about a week now, it's Neville Roy Singham.
- 3:21Speaker 2: This is a guy. He's like George Soros on steroids.
- 3:25Speaker 2: And he doesn't live in America. He lives in Singapore.
- 3:28Speaker 2: He's partnering with the Chinese communist government funding all of this,
- 3:33Speaker 2: and it's hard to touch him since he lives in Singapore,
- 3:36Speaker 2: but he's now been identified. They're tracing a lot of
- 3:39Speaker 2: the money coming from him, and like Soros does, he
- 3:42Speaker 2: funnels it through twenty different organizations, but it gets to
- 3:45Speaker 2: the protesters. He's funding that. He's also funding social media
- 3:50Speaker 2: messaging and all of that. You know, they get these
- 3:52Speaker 2: messages out. It's usually two level messages. One is for
- 3:56Speaker 2: the left wing kooks, and that's the message Trump is hitler,
- 4:00Speaker 2: Trump's a Nazi, it's the end of democracy, all that
- 4:03Speaker 2: kind of stuff. But then they also message out to
- 4:07Speaker 2: the Trump supporters just to unnerve them. They've been they're
- 4:11Speaker 2: the ones messaging out this is going to ruin them
- 4:14Speaker 2: in the midterms. They're going to get clabbered in the
- 4:16Speaker 2: midterms because of immigration. Trump is finally behind an immigrant.
- 4:20Speaker 2: None of this is true, it's just the messaging they
- 4:22Speaker 2: put out. So midterms are like nine months away, and
- 4:27Speaker 2: if you look at the real Poles, not the fake Poles.
- 4:29Speaker 2: The real Poles, most of the country still supports the present,
- 4:34Speaker 2: strongly supports them on immigration and all of that. Hey,
- 4:38Speaker 2: so Don Lemon was arrested as one of the protesters
- 4:41Speaker 2: who went into the church and caused all kinds of
- 4:43Speaker 2: havoc disrupting the service. So he's on with Jimmy Kimmel
- 4:49Speaker 2: last night, which is big because you go on that
- 4:51Speaker 2: Jimmy Kimmel show, you could be seen by eight nine
- 4:53Speaker 2: hundred thousand people just like that in one shot. So
- 4:57Speaker 2: here's part of Lemon, and he was talking about being
- 4:59Speaker 2: a arrested. Apparently he tried to surrender through his attorney,
- 5:05Speaker 2: but you know, you can't always do that. That's usually
- 5:10Speaker 2: for a white collar crime, you know, some white collar criminal,
- 5:14Speaker 2: financial crime. You know, then usually you can surrender. It's
- 5:18Speaker 2: not for you know, intimidating and disrupting a church service.
- 5:22Speaker 2: That's real criminal stuff. You can't usually surrender on that.
- 5:26Speaker 2: Here's Don Lemon on Kimmel last night.
- 5:27Speaker 3: They want to embarrass you, they want to intimidate you,
- 5:30Speaker 3: they want to instill fear, and so that's why they
- 5:32Speaker 3: did it that way.
- 5:33Speaker 2: Well, I think they also wanted to arrest you and
- 5:34Speaker 2: take you into custody, and that's generally how you do it.
- 5:37Speaker 2: You put the person in the handcuffs. Watch an episode
- 5:39Speaker 2: of Blue bloods. That's how they do it. They want
- 5:44Speaker 2: to intimidate you. Well, he said, they want to embarrass him.
- 5:48Speaker 2: It's very hard to embarrass a guy like Don Lemon.
- 5:50Speaker 2: I mean, with his ridiculous behavior. He's getting fired, being
- 5:54Speaker 2: out of work for four years. It's very tough to
- 5:56Speaker 2: embarrass that guy anymore. I'm not a protester. I went
- 5:59Speaker 2: there to be a journalists.
- 6:00Speaker 3: I went there to chronicle and document and record.
- 6:05Speaker 2: Well, you see, that's gonna get litigated in court. I'm
- 6:08Speaker 2: a journalist.
- 6:09Speaker 4: You know.
- 6:09Speaker 2: Let's say you're a cop and you're something bad and
- 6:13Speaker 2: they fire you. You're thrown off the police force, they
- 6:15Speaker 2: take your gun, they take your badge. You can't get
- 6:18Speaker 2: a job for four years. Now, four years later, if
- 6:21Speaker 2: you go grab somebody, can you say, I'm a cop.
- 6:23Speaker 2: That's why I'm grabbing. You're not a cop anymore. It's
- 6:26Speaker 2: the same thing with Don Lemon. He was throwing the
- 6:28Speaker 2: hell out of Sea on end. He got fired. Nobody
- 6:30Speaker 2: would hire him, nobody couldn't get a job, so he
- 6:33Speaker 2: starts doing an amateur podcast out of his bedroom. Are
- 6:37Speaker 2: you still a journalist? I don't know this again, this
- 6:42Speaker 2: will get this will get litigated in court, Who did
- 6:44Speaker 2: you make your one phone call? He said. They took
- 6:47Speaker 2: him into a holding room and left him there for
- 6:49Speaker 2: twelve hours, which I guess he's saying is torture. And
- 6:53Speaker 2: he wasn't allowed to make a phone call for the
- 6:55Speaker 2: twelve hours. And actually that is torture, you know, to
- 6:58Speaker 2: a guy like Don Lemon, this is like a crazy
- 7:01Speaker 2: ego maniac. For him to not be able to talk
- 7:04Speaker 2: to anybody, look at anybody, h this is torture for
- 7:08Speaker 2: a guy like this, nobody to talk to, nobody, to
- 7:09Speaker 2: look at just being alone. He's uh, he can be
- 7:15Speaker 2: nice in person, but he's a real ego maniac. I
- 7:17Speaker 2: mean a number of times I've been somewhere where he
- 7:20Speaker 2: comes in the room and if you don't say hello
- 7:23Speaker 2: to him, you know, you don't want to say load
- 7:25Speaker 2: to him. You're at another table. He's one of those
- 7:28Speaker 2: guys that'll wait and then then they'll charge over you.
- 7:31Speaker 2: You're not going to say a load to me. That
- 7:33Speaker 2: kind of ego he has to confront everybody. So finally
- 7:37Speaker 2: they gave him a phone call, who did you make
- 7:39Speaker 2: your one phone call to?
- 7:40Speaker 3: Here's the interesting thing, I didn't have a one phone call.
- 7:44Speaker 2: Wait, a minute. I watch a lot of TV, I know.
- 7:47Speaker 3: I asked him, do I get my one phone call Jimmy?
- 7:49Speaker 3: They said, no, you don't. You get to talk to
- 7:51Speaker 3: your attorney when whenever the court says that you can.
- 7:55Speaker 2: Okay, well that's the law. But it was pretty calm.
- 7:58Speaker 2: It was not very newswek the disappearance. That is customary
- 8:01Speaker 2: in a situation like this, that someone would be allowed
- 8:04Speaker 2: to turn themselves in.
- 8:05Speaker 3: Yeah, people who are who are accused of much worse
- 8:08Speaker 3: things than I am accused of doing, is they are
- 8:11Speaker 3: allowed the courtesy. I mean Donald Trump was allowed the
- 8:13Speaker 3: courtesy to turn himself in what he was, that's right,
- 8:16Speaker 3: he did.
- 8:16Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I see, that's a different case. It's an
- 8:19Speaker 2: ex president. The difference there, and this is a big
- 8:22Speaker 2: major difference. You can't just go arrest him because he's
- 8:26Speaker 2: being guarded by the Secret Service. He's under the protection
- 8:29Speaker 2: of the Secret Service. Secret Service cannot just turn him
- 8:32Speaker 2: over to local police. So he's under the protection of
- 8:36Speaker 2: Secret Service. You can't go rest that guy. So that
- 8:38Speaker 2: makes sense. Lemon is just a private citizen and an
- 8:41Speaker 2: out of work private citizen. You can arrest him, and
- 8:44Speaker 2: I don't know, remember Roger Stone's arrest Roger Stone, I'm
- 8:50Speaker 2: trying to remember what he did. It was nothing. It
- 8:52Speaker 2: turned out it was false. The whole charge was false.
- 8:55Speaker 2: But what was he accused of? It was emailing with
- 9:01Speaker 2: that Wiki leaks thing or something. It was absolutely nothing.
- 9:05Speaker 2: The silliest non crime crime in the world. Do you
- 9:08Speaker 2: remember what they did to him? This is the Biden administration.
- 9:11Speaker 2: They had like one hundred and fifty FBI agents on
- 9:14Speaker 2: his front lawn. He lives in a nice, peaceful neighborhood
- 9:17Speaker 2: and nice house in Florida. They ran a normandy invasion
- 9:20Speaker 2: up his front lawn. They had helicopters flying over, they
- 9:23Speaker 2: had tanks, bazookas. They even literally had boats in the
- 9:27Speaker 2: water on the inner coastal behind his house. This is
- 9:30Speaker 2: at four in the morning, busted through the door. I mean,
- 9:33Speaker 2: it was absolutely ridiculous. And remember they invited a CNN
- 9:37Speaker 2: to come with them and in bed with them and cover.
- 9:40Speaker 2: It was absolutely ridiculous. And do you remember the other
- 9:44Speaker 2: Trump got Peter Navarro and this was he refused to
- 9:49Speaker 2: testify in Congress. It wasn't a criminal act out in
- 9:51Speaker 2: the street. It was just contempt of Congress. Do you
- 9:54Speaker 2: remember they grabbed him a million agents at the airport
- 9:56Speaker 2: he was getting on a plane. They grabbed him and
- 9:58Speaker 2: put him in a leg iron I mean, it was
- 10:00Speaker 2: absolutely ridiculous. So what happened to Don Lemon is on
- 10:04Speaker 2: a scale of one to one hundred about less than one.
- 10:08Speaker 2: So it was nothing as far as comparing it to
- 10:10Speaker 2: Peter Navarro or Roger Stone. So he'll have a hearing
- 10:16Speaker 2: pretty soon. He could have a real legal problem here
- 10:19Speaker 2: because there's all kinds of video. It's against the law
- 10:22Speaker 2: to deliberately disrupt and try to interfere with a church
- 10:26Speaker 2: service or try to intimidate anybody in there. And the
- 10:29Speaker 2: protesters clearly are guilty by the way they've arrested dozens
- 10:32Speaker 2: of these protesters there, one hundred percent guilty, will be convicted.
- 10:35Speaker 2: Now the problem Lemon faces. There's video that they've discovered
- 10:39Speaker 2: of him plotting with these protesters, not like they were
- 10:44Speaker 2: doing this and he just happened to follow along. He
- 10:46Speaker 2: was in on the planning and the plotting. That's a problem.
- 10:49Speaker 2: And also in the indictment of states, they've got evidence
- 10:51Speaker 2: that he was in the door blocking people, disrupting the service.
- 10:55Speaker 2: The pastor told him to get out, he didn't so
- 10:58Speaker 2: he's got a real, a real problem. Hey, super Bowl
- 11:02Speaker 2: this Sunday. Roger Goodell, who is a strange guy. Roger Goodell.
- 11:09Speaker 2: The owners love Roger Goodell. I mean he is like
- 11:13Speaker 2: the most high school principal looking stern somber, unpleasant looking guy,
- 11:20Speaker 2: but the owners love him. He's got absolutely no sense
- 11:25Speaker 2: of humor, almost no personality, but the white of the
- 11:28Speaker 2: owners love him so much. He's unbelievable in negotiations, negotat
- 11:32Speaker 2: negotiating with the unions, with the TV networks, He's phenomenal.
- 11:36Speaker 2: He's unbelievable in the courtroom. He's really good for the owners.
- 11:41Speaker 2: But not a lot of fun. Not a lot of fun.
- 11:43Speaker 2: But he did a press conference yesterday and it turns
- 11:45Speaker 2: out one of the owners, Steve Tish, co owner of
- 11:49Speaker 2: the Giants, is all through those Epstein files, emailing back
- 11:53Speaker 2: and forth with Epstein. Nothing to do with underage women.
- 11:57Speaker 2: These are age appropriate women. But he's going back and
- 12:02Speaker 2: forth with Epstein. Tell me about this one, tell me
- 12:04Speaker 2: about that one of me. Is she a pro or civilian?
- 12:07Speaker 2: Is she a working girl?
- 12:08Speaker 3: Is?
- 12:08Speaker 2: So he's comparing notes on women with Epstein. It's not good.
- 12:14Speaker 2: Goodell was asked about it.
- 12:15Speaker 4: We are going to look at all the facts, We're
- 12:19Speaker 4: going to look at the context of those, We're going
- 12:20Speaker 4: to try to understand that, and we'll look at how
- 12:24Speaker 4: that falls under the policy. But I think we take
- 12:27Speaker 4: one step at a time. Let's get the facts first.
- 12:29Speaker 2: Yeah, and the facts are I don't think he did
- 12:30Speaker 2: anything wrong NFL rule wise, if you're the owner of
- 12:33Speaker 2: a team, you're certainly allowed to go out and meet women.
- 12:37Speaker 2: You're certainly allowed to go pick up women. You're certainly
- 12:39Speaker 2: allowed for a guy to fix you up with a woman.
- 12:42Speaker 2: You're certainly allowed to ask the guy hate tell me
- 12:44Speaker 2: about her, even if it's a sleeves ball like Epstein.
- 12:46Speaker 2: So it's within the rules. Hey, Robert Kraft, Remember Robert
- 12:50Speaker 2: Kraft going to the that Florida massage parlor with the
- 12:56Speaker 2: sixty year old Asian women, that little tug and rub
- 13:00Speaker 2: whatever that place was. Remember that. I mean, that was
- 13:02Speaker 2: out that prostitution he was involved in. But if that's
- 13:06Speaker 2: not a problem, I don't think. I don't think this
- 13:08Speaker 2: is a problem. A good thing for Robert Kraft. That
- 13:12Speaker 2: saved him. If they had been like nineteen year old women,
- 13:16Speaker 2: twenty three year olds, it would have looked so sleazy.
- 13:19Speaker 2: But the fact that the women were like sixty years
- 13:21Speaker 2: old that helped a little. That made it a little easier. Now,
- 13:25Speaker 2: what about Bad Bunny? Is he going to screw up
- 13:28Speaker 2: the entire Super Bowl by getting political? You know, he's
- 13:31Speaker 2: not the brightest guy in the world. He's not the
- 13:33Speaker 2: most normal. He's a strange looking, weird guy trying to
- 13:36Speaker 2: be political. And the idea of him trying to discuss
- 13:43Speaker 2: politics or analyze issues is so preposterous. It would be
- 13:47Speaker 2: like Victor Davis Hansen singing hip hop. I mean, just
- 13:50Speaker 2: it doesn't work. Stay in your lane. So Goodell was
- 13:53Speaker 2: asked about keeping Bad Bunny under control.
- 13:55Speaker 4: This platform is used to unite people and to be
- 13:58Speaker 4: able to bring people together with their creativity, with their talents,
- 14:02Speaker 4: and to be able to use this moment to do that.
- 14:04Speaker 4: And I think artists in the past have done that.
- 14:07Speaker 4: I think Bad Bunny understands it, and I think he'll
- 14:10Speaker 4: have a great performance.
- 14:13Speaker 2: We hope. So, you know, traditionally, when they started this
- 14:16Speaker 2: whole NFL halftime with an entertainer singing, it was always
- 14:20Speaker 2: somebody totally mild, somebody totally harmless. It was never somebody edgy,
- 14:26Speaker 2: it was never somebody who could get political. I mean
- 14:29Speaker 2: you go back to like the sixties, the first halftime shows,
- 14:31Speaker 2: it was like Andy Williams would be the halftime show,
- 14:35Speaker 2: or you know, like a Billy Joel or Nelton John
- 14:38Speaker 2: or somebody like that. Just somebody you know's going to
- 14:39Speaker 2: come out sing, perform. That's it. Then when did all
- 14:44Speaker 2: this start. Was it George Floyd or something. They started
- 14:46Speaker 2: to go totally woke, cave in, you know, go for
- 14:52Speaker 2: the most edgy, edgy, edgy halftime shows, trying to appease
- 14:56Speaker 2: the left wing mob. So I think that's how we
- 14:59Speaker 2: end up with with bad Bunny. Hey, the Clintons have
- 15:02Speaker 2: caved in. They refuse to testify on the in front
- 15:06Speaker 2: of Congress and the Epstein hearings because they are the
- 15:10Speaker 2: most tangled up with Epstein people on Earth. I mean
- 15:13Speaker 2: it's not just Bill Clinton and Epstein Island and women.
- 15:17Speaker 2: They are very tangled up with Epstein in business deals.
- 15:20Speaker 2: It was Epstein who helped found the Clinton Foundation, the
- 15:23Speaker 2: Clinton Global Initiative. Epstein was a big, big part of that.
- 15:28Speaker 2: Sad they don't want to talk about all this. They
- 15:30Speaker 2: refuse to testify, but they were held in contempt to
- 15:34Speaker 2: Congress and it was going to go to the Justice
- 15:36Speaker 2: Department for indictment. Congress had to vote on whether to
- 15:40Speaker 2: send it there and do that. And it turned out,
- 15:43Speaker 2: obviously the Republicans vote against Clinton, but it turned out
- 15:46Speaker 2: a lot of Democrats voted against Clinton because younger Democrats
- 15:50Speaker 2: they don't know who the hell Bill Clinton is or
- 15:51Speaker 2: Hillary Clinton, and they don't care, and they don't like them.
- 15:54Speaker 2: They're like old fossils from another era. They remember the
- 15:57Speaker 2: Clintons by Bill Clinton. Bill Clinton was moderate as common sense,
- 16:02Speaker 2: can you know, kind of conservative Democrats. So today's Democrats
- 16:05Speaker 2: hate him for that. They hate that, So they were
- 16:07Speaker 2: all going to vote against them. So the Clinton's had
- 16:09Speaker 2: to cave in. And this is gonna be tricky for them,
- 16:13Speaker 2: very tricky for them because it's not just Epstein. Anything
- 16:16Speaker 2: can come up, emails, servers, anything can come up in
- 16:20Speaker 2: these hearings. So it's a very dangerous situation for them. Now,
- 16:24Speaker 2: the good news is Hillary Clinton is not great in hearings.
- 16:27Speaker 2: Bill Clinton is dazzling in hearings. He may have lost
- 16:31Speaker 2: a step or two, but he's still pretty good. The
- 16:33Speaker 2: good news for them also, Comber James Comer, we love
- 16:35Speaker 2: James Comer, but he's not the best at these hearings.
- 16:38Speaker 2: We love the guy and he tries hard, but he's
- 16:41Speaker 2: he over promises and underdelivers. Usually. Republicans are not good
- 16:45Speaker 2: at these hearings. Democrats are great at hearings. January sixth, Halliburton.
- 16:49Speaker 2: They can fake anything in these hearings. They can. They're
- 16:53Speaker 2: deadly with these hearings. They know how to do this stuff.
- 16:55Speaker 2: Republicans they're not good at setting up these hearings to
- 16:59Speaker 2: be trapped and catchpree. They're not great at it. Hey,
- 17:02Speaker 2: we'll take some calls. Next eight hundred three to two
- 17:04Speaker 2: one zero seven ten is the number eight hundred three
- 17:08Speaker 2: two one zero seven ten. If you're listening to Mark
- 17:12Speaker 2: on the iHeartRadio app, save time and tap the breset button.
- 17:15Speaker 3: Now now back to the Mark Simone show on woor.
- 17:22Speaker 2: Hey, let's take some calls. Let's go to uh Rich
- 17:25Speaker 2: in Myrtle Beach.
- 17:26Speaker 5: Rich.
- 17:26Speaker 2: How you doing pretty good?
- 17:29Speaker 5: I might actually get to fifty degrees down here today.
- 17:31Speaker 5: We had a couple inches of snow, and we had
- 17:33Speaker 5: areas just north we said fifteen inches of snow over
- 17:36Speaker 5: the weekend. It's been like, you know, fifteen degrees every day.
- 17:39Speaker 2: Well I thought you moved down there to get away
- 17:40Speaker 2: from that kind of stuff.
- 17:42Speaker 5: Well that's what I thought, But it happens every once
- 17:44Speaker 5: in a while, and I'm getting a kick out of
- 17:45Speaker 5: watching the news. We get piles and piles of snow
- 17:48Speaker 5: and trash in the streets of New York City and
- 17:50Speaker 5: man Dommy can't get any of it removed, and it
- 17:53Speaker 5: looks like third world country. Ready have to watch.
- 17:55Speaker 2: It doesn't look like a third world country. We use stuff,
- 18:00Speaker 2: you know, looked at, look looked at that lowis, Look
- 18:03Speaker 2: down that way, Look down fifty seven street. There is
- 18:05Speaker 2: trash pile that What else do I see? There's Trump Tower,
- 18:09Speaker 2: there's Louis Vacan, There's Bergdorf Goodman, there's Bulgary. It doesn't
- 18:14Speaker 2: look like a third world country.
- 18:17Speaker 5: Democrats have all but admitted that they've been cheating in
- 18:19Speaker 5: elections for decades. Representative of Jordians trying to get an
- 18:23Speaker 5: amendment to stop Trump and everybody from looking at ballot
- 18:27Speaker 5: machines suant the government because they came and took all
- 18:30Speaker 5: the voter rolls out of Georgia and they won't support
- 18:34Speaker 5: a voter id law. Every single Democrat without coming out
- 18:38Speaker 5: and saying, yes, we've cheated their reelection. They're doing everything
- 18:40Speaker 5: they can. Let the public know its exactly what they've
- 18:42Speaker 5: been doing.
- 18:43Speaker 2: That's a good point. Yeah, that's true, But who can
- 18:45Speaker 2: blame them? Listen, they very important to them not to
- 18:48Speaker 2: have voter ID. That way, legals can vote, people can vote.
- 18:52Speaker 2: Multiple times that the President talking about nationalizing elections. What
- 18:56Speaker 2: he's saying is, you've got to have the same standard
- 18:59Speaker 2: for federal elections local to whatever you want. Federal elections,
- 19:03Speaker 2: you got to have voter ID. Now you know how
- 19:05Speaker 2: many countries have voter ID, all of them, every single
- 19:09Speaker 2: one except this one. Let's go to Bill in Pennsylvania.
- 19:13Speaker 6: Bill, how you doing, Hi, Mark, I've done the telephone
- 19:18Speaker 6: bill three times higher than normal. And so they say,
- 19:23Speaker 6: and I won't mention the telephone company unless you want
- 19:26Speaker 6: to hear it.
- 19:27Speaker 2: Go ahead, Google five?
- 19:32Speaker 6: Who Google PI has a phone service?
- 19:36Speaker 2: Oh, get a real phone company, Get AT and T
- 19:39Speaker 2: get for Horizon. Stop with that, Google.
- 19:42Speaker 6: Okay, this is true with all these things. So I
- 19:45Speaker 6: had to pay or call, and they're always available twenty
- 19:49Speaker 6: four to seven to listen to your complaint. And then
- 19:52Speaker 6: you're gonna call. You're going to talk to some woman
- 19:54Speaker 6: in Columbia or New Delhi or Saigon or Mandela for
- 19:58Speaker 6: the next three hours.
- 19:59Speaker 2: Yeah, but get a real phone company. Forget that Google Fi.
- 20:03Speaker 5: Okay, but listen to me.
- 20:05Speaker 6: Then they sit there and read every single thing that
- 20:08Speaker 6: you signed on a sixteen page contract. You know, in
- 20:14Speaker 6: two thousand.
- 20:15Speaker 2: And eight, Right where do you live in Pennsylvania. There's
- 20:18Speaker 2: a Verizon store near you. There's an AT and T
- 20:20Speaker 2: store near you. Don't you been here, No, but I
- 20:24Speaker 2: mean sit there everywhere. Go in there and say, take
- 20:27Speaker 2: this phone, put AT and T on it, and then
- 20:30Speaker 2: make sure you talk to them, because you can get
- 20:31Speaker 2: all kinds of plans, you know. And also if your
- 20:33Speaker 2: phone bill is too high, call up the company or
- 20:36Speaker 2: going to one of those stores. They can give you
- 20:37Speaker 2: a better plan, they can change your plan. But get
- 20:41Speaker 2: a real phone coming. And the same thing with your
- 20:43Speaker 2: cable company. The bills too high, call them up. You
- 20:46Speaker 2: can negotiate with them. You know. The best one is serious.
- 20:50Speaker 2: That's serious satellite service.
- 20:52Speaker 5: You know.
- 20:52Speaker 2: Nineteen a month, I'm leaving, it's ridiculous. Nineteen a month.
- 20:55Speaker 2: They'll say, well, well, we'll make it twelve dollars a month.
- 20:58Speaker 2: Twelve is too high. I'm leaving. We'll give you nine dollars.
- 21:01Speaker 2: If they're very negotiable, you'd be surprised. Let's go to Tony
- 21:04Speaker 2: and White Plaines.
- 21:05Speaker 7: Tony, how you doing, Yeah, good morning, Mark, Mark. Two
- 21:09Speaker 7: quick things. I don't know if you caught it last week.
- 21:12Speaker 7: Trump he was doing like a bait and switch. I
- 21:16Speaker 7: don't know if you picked it up. He was saying, Oh,
- 21:19Speaker 7: the signs that these people make at the protest, they
- 21:21Speaker 7: are so beautiful. They're great. He goes, I could use
- 21:26Speaker 7: a sign company like that. I wish to contact me,
- 21:29Speaker 7: you know, so I could use them on my campaign
- 21:31Speaker 7: and different signs for different things. So it's like a
- 21:35Speaker 7: bait and switch.
- 21:35Speaker 2: But yeah, it's not a bait and switch. You know,
- 21:38Speaker 2: you totally misunderstood the whole thing. He was pointing out
- 21:41Speaker 2: that a lot of this protesting is organized, paid for.
- 21:45Speaker 2: It's not organic protesters showing up. One of the things
- 21:49Speaker 2: that shows this is a truck pulls up. We've got
- 21:52Speaker 2: video of this. A truck will pull up and start
- 21:55Speaker 2: passing out the signs and they're not homemade. They're beautifully
- 21:58Speaker 2: professionally printed signs. And from the truck they'll hand out
- 22:02Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty of them that are all identical.
- 22:05Speaker 2: So and it's a very expensive thing to do that,
- 22:08Speaker 2: to print up one hundred and fifty really nice signs.
- 22:10Speaker 2: So somebody paid for it. Somebody paid for the truck,
- 22:13Speaker 2: the driver, the people to come pass them out, more
- 22:17Speaker 2: and more evidence that it's all paid for. And he
- 22:19Speaker 2: was being cute, being funny, saying, those are really nice signs.
- 22:23Speaker 2: I think I need to hire that sign company. Let's
- 22:26Speaker 2: go to Barbara in Long Island. Barbara, how you doing?
- 22:29Speaker 1: Hi? I love the show, but living Queen's Woodside and
- 22:34Speaker 1: didn't come to Woodside And maybe you should see the
- 22:36Speaker 1: ice that's up to three fty piles.
- 22:39Speaker 2: You can't cost.
- 22:40Speaker 1: It's not good out here.
- 22:42Speaker 2: Well, you know, you're absolutely right. They're a little slower
- 22:45Speaker 2: when it comes to queens and uh, but it's it's
- 22:50Speaker 2: I can't say because I don't know who's a fault here, Mom,
- 22:53Speaker 2: Donnie looks bad here. It's got people more and more angry.
- 22:56Speaker 2: The snow is piled up now today supposed to go
- 23:00Speaker 2: up to about thirty five. That'll start melting some of
- 23:02Speaker 2: the snow. The garbage piled up that I still don't understand.
- 23:06Speaker 2: Now they claim. I guess the claim is that sanitation
- 23:09Speaker 2: is so busy with snow removal they haven't had time
- 23:11Speaker 2: to pick up the garbage. But we haven't seen a
- 23:13Speaker 2: lot of snow removals. So and let me also point
- 23:16Speaker 2: out the people doing this in sanitation and emergency management
- 23:20Speaker 2: are the leftover Adams people. So it's not like it's
- 23:23Speaker 2: new Mom Donnie people. Oh yeah, Adams people are leaving
- 23:26Speaker 2: in a week. Hey, when we come back, Liz Peak
- 23:29Speaker 2: will be with us, the brilliant columnists. We'll talk to
- 23:32Speaker 2: Liz Peak next on seven to ten woor.
- 23:36Speaker 7: Maximon on sevent ten wor.

- 23:58Speaker 1: I'm terrific. Thanks for having me.
- 24:00Speaker 2: Hey, where do we even start? The Clinton's bill and
- 24:04Speaker 2: Hillary have caved in. They will testify before Congress. I
- 24:08Speaker 2: think that's going to go well for them.
- 24:11Speaker 1: Well, it depends, I mean to the extent that they
- 24:14Speaker 1: stray into areas where Bill in particular might be challenged
- 24:20Speaker 1: on things that he did with Jeffrey Epstein that are
- 24:22Speaker 1: not above board. I'm assuming they take a fitth Amendment option,
- 24:27Speaker 1: probably that they won't get to that point because I
- 24:30Speaker 1: don't know that they have anything specific to charge them with.
- 24:34Speaker 1: It'll certainly be an embarrassment. I think it already is. Look,
- 24:37Speaker 1: we know, Mark, we've known for what a couple of years,
- 24:42Speaker 1: four years, five years, that Bill Clinton had a close
- 24:45Speaker 1: relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, that he flew on the Lolita Express,
- 24:50Speaker 1: that other friends of Hiss like Wesner, also had a
- 24:54Speaker 1: close relationship with Epstein. I think he's in it very thick. Frankly,
- 25:00Speaker 1: I've always thought the reasons Joe Biden didn't open the
- 25:04Speaker 1: files a because there wasn't much in there to incriminate
- 25:08Speaker 1: President Trump, which was disappointing I'm sure the Democrats and
- 25:11Speaker 1: still is, but also because Clinton's are so embarrassingly tied
- 25:18Speaker 1: up with Jeffrey Epstein. And it's amazing to me. You know,
- 25:21Speaker 1: remember that portrait of Bill Clinton that hung in Jeffrey
- 25:26Speaker 1: Epstein's townhouse, Bill Clinton in a blue dress, red high heels.
- 25:31Speaker 1: Tell me why that isn't proof positive that these guys
- 25:36Speaker 1: were in very deep with whatever Jeffrey Epstein was into.
- 25:39Speaker 2: Yeah, and not to mention other things will come out,
- 25:41Speaker 2: for instance, Epstein's major role in creating the Clinton Foundation
- 25:45Speaker 2: Clinton Global Initiative. That's not going to look good. But yeah,
- 25:49Speaker 2: I agree, you know I was saying before. But the
- 25:52Speaker 2: only thing is Republicans they're not good at these hearings.
- 25:55Speaker 2: Democrats can do these hatchet job hearings where they destroy somebody.
- 25:59Speaker 2: Republicans aren't doing that well.
- 26:01Speaker 1: They're not as nasty. Honestly, I think that's the problem.
- 26:07Speaker 1: They're not as nasty. But also remember that the liberal
- 26:09Speaker 1: media is going to pick and choose what they show,
- 26:12Speaker 1: so they'll pick and choose kind of milk toast questions
- 26:17Speaker 1: from Republicans all these kinds of investigations, and then it's
- 26:21Speaker 1: sort of hotly denying responses from people like the Clintons,
- 26:26Speaker 1: whereas the you know, if if a Democrat's under siege
- 26:30Speaker 1: and it's being I mean, if a Republican is under
- 26:32Speaker 1: siege by a Democrat panel, you're just going to see
- 26:35Speaker 1: the most horribly sort of undermining content and so you know,
- 26:41Speaker 1: none of it's particularly fair. But look, I think that
- 26:44Speaker 1: the Clintons should tell what they know about Jeffrey Epstein.
- 26:48Speaker 1: I mean, as you say, there were a lot of
- 26:50Speaker 1: avenues which they traveled together, and I think we all
- 26:53Speaker 1: need to know what those were and what the upshot
- 26:57Speaker 1: of those were.
- 26:57Speaker 2: Yeah. Hey, anytime the Clintons avoid a TV camera, you
- 27:00Speaker 2: know something's up, something suspicious.
- 27:03Speaker 5: Yes.
- 27:03Speaker 1: True.
- 27:04Speaker 2: So, hey, the President has made some big changes with
- 27:08Speaker 2: ICE that he wants them now to wear bodycam cameras.
- 27:12Speaker 2: He wants them to maybe not go into cities where
- 27:15Speaker 2: they're not welcome. It's a good move on his part,
- 27:18Speaker 2: isn't it.
- 27:19Speaker 1: I think he's trying to diffuse this situation. I frankly
- 27:22Speaker 1: applaud that. Look, bodycams, as Trump said, if they're not
- 27:29Speaker 1: doing anything wrong, then everybody can stop manufacturing accusations against
- 27:35Speaker 1: ICE agents that are not legitimate. So if you're wearing
- 27:39Speaker 1: a body cam, you pretty much you're going to hear
- 27:41Speaker 1: a lot about what is happening to you, frankly. And
- 27:45Speaker 1: there's an awful lot of these ICE protesters beating up
- 27:49Speaker 1: on these agents, throwing things at them and so forth,
- 27:52Speaker 1: obviously insulting them and calling them Nazis and all that.
- 27:55Speaker 1: Kind of stuff. So let's let let people hear that. Yeah,
- 27:58Speaker 1: I mean, that'll be now we'll have have proof positive
- 28:01Speaker 1: about what they're encountering on a day to day basis.
- 28:04Speaker 1: And I also am about transparency. I think the bigger
- 28:08Speaker 1: issue mark is this whole idea that they're wearing masks,
- 28:11Speaker 1: and frankly, they've been so horribly treated and their families
- 28:15Speaker 1: have been threatening, people go to their homes and harass them.
- 28:19Speaker 5: And so forth.
- 28:20Speaker 1: I understand one hundred percent why they're wearing masks, and
- 28:23Speaker 1: I think it's probably very dangerous for them not to.
- 28:26Speaker 1: On the other hand, it does have a bad look.
- 28:29Speaker 1: I mean the look is that they're again trying to
- 28:31Speaker 1: conceal something do something underhand. And so I really don't
- 28:35Speaker 1: know if we're to come out on this, but I
- 28:37Speaker 1: think the body can thing is completely appropriate.
- 28:39Speaker 2: Yeah, some people on the left, they like to start
- 28:46Speaker 2: these messages and spread them through the conservative world. One
- 28:49Speaker 2: is the president's messaging is terrible. He better fixes messaging
- 28:53Speaker 2: his messaging, and they get people repeating this all the time.
- 28:56Speaker 8: You think there's any validity to that, Well, it depends
- 28:59Speaker 8: about But I mean I wrote something today that was
- 29:02Speaker 8: about basically how the economy is in very good shape,
- 29:05Speaker 8: and no one's being told that by Bloomberg, CNBC, et cetera.
- 29:10Speaker 1: Those guys really really have a vested interest in presenting
- 29:14Speaker 1: all the economic news in the worst possible light, including
- 29:18Speaker 1: the nomination or the the you know, the nomination of
- 29:21Speaker 1: Kevin Walsh, which honestly was hilarious. Here For months we've
- 29:25Speaker 1: been told, oh my gosh, Trump's trying to undermine the
- 29:28Speaker 1: independence of the Fed. This is a real threat to
- 29:30Speaker 1: our institutional order, and how terrible this is that Trump
- 29:35Speaker 1: wants more of an influence, then he picks a guy
- 29:36Speaker 1: who's the renowned hawk. The metals prices collapsed because that
- 29:41Speaker 1: the market is refuting everything that the liberal media has
- 29:45Speaker 1: been saying for months. And now, you know, it looks
- 29:48Speaker 1: like interest rates aren't going to go straight down because
- 29:50Speaker 1: that really isn't Kevin's normal kind of trajectory worth thinking.
- 29:56Speaker 1: And they still can't let it go. They still are ranked,
- 29:59Speaker 1: you know, warning people about bed independence. I mean, it's
- 30:02Speaker 1: kind of hilarious, but I also say, and I'm sure
- 30:05Speaker 1: people don't like to hear this. President Trump has got
- 30:09Speaker 1: to tell the story straight. He cannot go out and
- 30:11Speaker 1: tell people there's no inflation, prices are going down. That's
- 30:15Speaker 1: what Joe Biden did, and Joe Biden got creamed for it.
- 30:19Speaker 1: So Trump doesn't need to do that. Joe Biden did
- 30:22Speaker 1: need to do that. He did not have a good
- 30:25Speaker 1: story to tell. Real incomes were collapsing, and the Kansas
- 30:30Speaker 1: City Fed called it the worst hit to middle class
- 30:33Speaker 1: American since the Great Depression. So Joe Biden's story was
- 30:37Speaker 1: not there. President Trump has a good story and he
- 30:39Speaker 1: should stick to the facts. And I know he loves
- 30:42Speaker 1: to go off the teleprompter, but these guys writing his
- 30:45Speaker 1: speeches put in a lot of good material about productivity
- 30:49Speaker 1: and investment in the United States and all this. If
- 30:53Speaker 1: he just sticks to that and doesn't undermine his own
- 30:56Speaker 1: story and credibility by these sort of wild flames, I
- 31:01Speaker 1: think he'd be better off. But you know what Trump
- 31:02Speaker 1: is Trump, He's got his own way of doing things.
- 31:06Speaker 1: I just kind of look like everybody. I'm focused on
- 31:09Speaker 1: the midterms. I want this to work. I want there
- 31:12Speaker 1: to be a miracle and the Republicans to maintain control
- 31:15Speaker 1: of the House because I do not want to see
- 31:18Speaker 1: the end of the Trump agenda, and I'm worried that
- 31:21Speaker 1: that's what we're going to be looking at.
- 31:23Speaker 2: Oh, well we'll see. Hey, let's speak. You live in
- 31:25Speaker 2: the New York City. What do you think Garbage piled
- 31:28Speaker 2: up everywhere, snow piled.
- 31:29Speaker 1: Up, growth is gross.
- 31:31Speaker 2: I'm Donnie looking bad, Mom, Donnie looking intent.
- 31:35Speaker 1: Look, this is someone said it very well on X
- 31:39Speaker 1: the other day. This is someone like a lot of
- 31:42Speaker 1: progressive young campaigners. This is someone play acting as mayor.
- 31:48Speaker 1: He thought that all you had to do was make speeches.
- 31:51Speaker 5: Mark.
- 31:51Speaker 1: Imagine someone actually taking over a city of the size
- 31:55Speaker 1: of New York and the importance of New York and
- 31:58Speaker 1: being acting like there's some prize that there's a budget deficit.
- 32:02Speaker 1: This is after you've been on the camp train trail
- 32:04Speaker 1: for a year promising all kinds of big time spending.
- 32:07Speaker 1: What was he thinking that basically all those projections were
- 32:13Speaker 1: wrong or he just was too lazy to do his homework.
- 32:16Speaker 1: I mean, everything about this guy is so insincere and
- 32:20Speaker 1: fake and shallow. You know, does it surprise me he
- 32:23Speaker 1: isn't going to manage the city?
- 32:25Speaker 5: Well not at all.
- 32:27Speaker 2: Well, Hey, there's all kinds of video of Eric Adams
- 32:30Speaker 2: making speeches a year ago saying this is going to
- 32:32Speaker 2: be a twelve billion dollar budget deficit.
- 32:34Speaker 5: Yeah, of course we all knew it, right, Wow, you
- 32:37Speaker 5: knew it.
- 32:38Speaker 1: I knew it. Why didn't mom dot onely know it?
- 32:40Speaker 1: Or is he just lying that this is a big
- 32:42Speaker 1: sort of conspiracy to undermine his mayoral hopes and dreams.
- 32:46Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think he just I actually
- 32:49Speaker 1: think that he's just too lazy to actually do his homework.
- 32:53Speaker 1: For example, talks about rent controls. You can spend thirty
- 32:57Speaker 1: minutes investigating and reading the his of rent controls to
- 33:01Speaker 1: know that it is an absolutely terrible proposition, but he's
- 33:05Speaker 1: too lazy to do that.
- 33:07Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good point. Well, everybody subscribe to a
