- 0:00Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Mark Simone Show Live from ther
- 0:04Speaker 1: Life Back Studios. Welcome back, I just got here. I
- 0:11Speaker 1: guess they mean yesterday. Well, welcome back. But hey, we've
- 0:14Speaker 1: got a lot to get to. We'll get to Iran,
- 0:16Speaker 1: We'll get to Lindsey Graham, We'll get to the President's
- 0:19Speaker 1: speech Thursday night, We'll get to FIFA, the latest on
- 0:22Speaker 1: Legionnaire's disease, and a whole lot more coming up. Lindsey
- 0:26Speaker 1: Graham Nation mourning his very sudden, surprising passing and the
- 0:34Speaker 1: governor appointing his sister Darlene to take over for him.
- 0:40Speaker 1: And this is just for a few months. It'll be
- 0:44Speaker 1: for about seven months until January. They'll have a special
- 0:47Speaker 1: election and I'm not sure yet who's going to run. Well,
- 0:52Speaker 1: a bunch of candidates are possible. His sister Darlene spoke
- 0:57Speaker 1: yesterday after the governor nomine actorly, you gave her the seat.
- 1:02Speaker 1: She'll now be a Senator for about seven months.
- 1:05Speaker 2: I don't want to thank the governor for selecting me
- 1:07Speaker 2: to serve the remainder of Lindsay's term, and is such
- 1:11Speaker 2: an honor. Lindsay has always been there for me and
- 1:16Speaker 2: now I will be there for him.
- 1:19Speaker 1: Wow, it's a big loss, a big, big loss for
- 1:23Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Lindsay Graham an important advisor, confidant. He's also
- 1:26Speaker 1: a guy who could go all over the place in
- 1:28Speaker 1: the Capitol and get things done. Whether you needed to
- 1:31Speaker 1: win over a Republican or a Democrat, Lindsay Graham would
- 1:34Speaker 1: do that. So she'll be great as far as voting,
- 1:36Speaker 1: but she won't be able to do all that other stuff.
- 1:39Speaker 2: My brother was the most amazing person, outstanding leader, and
- 1:45Speaker 2: just a genuinely good man.
- 1:47Speaker 1: He really was a good guy. I mean those that knew,
- 1:51Speaker 1: nobody could. I've never heard anybody not like Lindsay Graham personally.
- 1:55Speaker 1: Some people didn't like some of the voting Iraq war amnesty.
- 2:01Speaker 1: I mean, he was like McCain. I mean, everybody loved
- 2:05Speaker 1: the guy, but sometimes he'd crossed the aisle when you
- 2:08Speaker 1: didn't want him to. But here's the governor of Tennessee, McMaster,
- 2:14Speaker 1: good friend and ally of Donald Trump. He's the one
- 2:16Speaker 1: that picked her to be the acting senator for seven months.
- 2:20Speaker 3: Lindsay took care of his little sister in years long departed.
- 2:26Speaker 3: It's my honor to ask his little sister, Darlene Graham
- 2:30Speaker 3: to finish his work for him.
- 2:32Speaker 1: Now, so it looks like a burst a order. Now,
- 2:41Speaker 1: he should have taken better care of himself. He should
- 2:43Speaker 1: have gotten checked out a little more, had that looked
- 2:45Speaker 1: at more. It runs in the family. It's genetic. His
- 2:48Speaker 1: father died at just about the same age, same thing.
- 2:53Speaker 1: He neglected that. And you know the problem is that,
- 2:57Speaker 1: you know, when you got that kind of heart stuff
- 3:00Speaker 1: in your family, in your genes, you really got to
- 3:02Speaker 1: get it looked at all the time. Now, doctor Oz,
- 3:05Speaker 1: who's a great heart specialist, explains this.
- 3:08Speaker 4: And one of the things with aortic dissection I bought
- 3:10Speaker 4: a simple model of demonstrated is you don't have much warning.
- 3:13Speaker 4: And the pro cautionary tale is keep your blood pressure
- 3:16Speaker 4: low because that is the one risk factor that seems
- 3:18Speaker 4: to be recurrent. The second is if you have the
- 3:19Speaker 4: worst pain you've ever had, you should go see a doctor. Unfortunately,
- 3:22Speaker 4: with aortic dissection, even then it's sometimes too late. About
- 3:26Speaker 4: thirty percent of people die within the first day, more
- 3:29Speaker 4: than half a day, within two days.
- 3:30Speaker 1: Yeah. The other problem it was a pretty big drinker.
- 3:34Speaker 1: I mean, he loved to drink. That doesn't help that
- 3:38Speaker 1: at all. So again, everybody loved the guy that worked
- 3:41Speaker 1: with him, Democrats, Republicans. He was like from the good
- 3:44Speaker 1: old days, you know where the tip O'Neil days, where
- 3:47Speaker 1: after work they'd all go to a bar together, the Republicans,
- 3:50Speaker 1: the Democrats, they'd have lunch together. That doesn't exist anymore.
- 3:54Speaker 1: But in the case of Lindsay Graham, a lot of
- 3:56Speaker 1: senators speaking out about him.
- 3:58Speaker 5: Senator Graham was a very forceful and quick witted presence
- 4:04Speaker 5: in every room that he entered. His warm nature made
- 4:10Speaker 5: everyone his friend, and I feel blessed to be one
- 4:15Speaker 5: of them.
- 4:16Speaker 1: From every senator, great tribute.
- 4:18Speaker 6: It's difficult to believe that Lindsey Graham is no longer
- 4:21Speaker 6: here with us, that we won't run into him at
- 4:24Speaker 6: a minia day or share a joke with him at
- 4:27Speaker 6: this afternoon's vote. The halls of the Senate already feel empty.
- 4:32Speaker 1: Without him again, touching tributes from everybody. However, there was
- 4:37Speaker 1: one senator who's a cheap, hustling, pandering, just a cheap politician.
- 4:45Speaker 1: Who am I talking to? Everybody says they're all saying
- 4:48Speaker 1: right now, Schumer, Chuck Schumer. Chuck Schumer with the big glasses,
- 4:53Speaker 1: pretends he's doing a tribute to Lindsey Graham, but it's
- 4:56Speaker 1: actually a paid political announcement.
- 4:58Speaker 7: I urged Senator Thoun in honor of Lindsey to put
- 5:02Speaker 7: the sanctions, the Russian sanctions bill on.
- 5:05Speaker 1: The floor immediately.
- 5:07Speaker 7: It will pass overwhelmingly and help our allies in Ukraine.
- 5:10Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's a very touching tribute in honor of Lindsay.
- 5:14Speaker 1: Could you pass this bill that I've been pushing for
- 5:16Speaker 1: a while in honor of Lindsay, maybe you could make
- 5:20Speaker 1: a donation to my campaign. What a cheap little politician.
- 5:24Speaker 1: Schumer is always out of touch, always inappropriate. So we
- 5:30Speaker 1: hit Iran very very hard last night. In fact, we
- 5:34Speaker 1: killed a major leader of the IRGC, major Iranian Republic
- 5:39Speaker 1: Guard leader, Revolutionary Guard leader was killed last night. So
- 5:45Speaker 1: this is going to go on, night after night. We're
- 5:46Speaker 1: going to keep hitting them very very hard. The peace
- 5:50Speaker 1: socks are continuing. At the same time.
- 5:53Speaker 8: We had a deal yesterday or the day before yesterday,
- 5:55Speaker 8: was all done and then they broke up that deal
- 5:57Speaker 8: immediately because they found out there was something the deal
- 6:00Speaker 8: they didn't like, and they're wired differently and we're not
- 6:03Speaker 8: going to put.
- 6:04Speaker 1: Up with it. Yeah, So they're a little crazy. They're
- 6:08Speaker 1: negotiating while they don't have the capacity to hit us
- 6:12Speaker 1: back in anyway, so they're firing into other countries. They've
- 6:15Speaker 1: hit like four or five neighboring countries with a rocket
- 6:18Speaker 1: with a drone. So the Straight of hor Moose, we
- 6:21Speaker 1: have closed it down. We can reopen it whenever we want.
- 6:24Speaker 1: We've done it before. In fact, there was stopped about
- 6:28Speaker 1: a week ago. But there was a six week period
- 6:30Speaker 1: where we had the straight open the southern route, but
- 6:33Speaker 1: we got eight hundred and twenty tankers through. Three hundred
- 6:37Speaker 1: and eighty million barrels of oil came through. It's still
- 6:42Speaker 1: open to some extent, just lower traffic than usual. On Sunday,
- 6:49Speaker 1: fourteen ships came to. That's a lot lower, and only
- 6:52Speaker 1: five hundred thousand barrels of crewed came through. But it
- 6:56Speaker 1: is technically open. We're going to the president negoti like
- 7:00Speaker 1: a business guy, like a tough New York City business negotiator.
- 7:04Speaker 1: So they want a toll on all the ships, or
- 7:08Speaker 1: Ran wants to collect a toll, So then we are
- 7:10Speaker 1: announcing we're tolling them, and actually the money will be
- 7:14Speaker 1: to reimburse us for protecting the Straight.
- 7:17Speaker 9: I want to be reimbursed because we're protecting a very
- 7:20Speaker 9: rich portion of the world. We're spending money, and so
- 7:23Speaker 9: what we've done is we are going to be reimbursed
- 7:25Speaker 9: for protection we're protecting by the countries that we're helping.
- 7:31Speaker 1: Yeah, you'll reimburse us. It's kind of a soprano ish
- 7:35Speaker 1: kind of thing there. You got to pay us everywhere.
- 7:39Speaker 1: But this is all just negotiating. Remember Trump just loves
- 7:46Speaker 1: to switch tactics, change, I mean just he's all over
- 7:51Speaker 1: the place, but he knows what he's doing. In the end,
- 7:53Speaker 1: it always works out.
- 7:54Speaker 9: So we're knocking out all of their offensive capability, and
- 7:58Speaker 9: we're control the Straits who're putting the blockade back. And
- 8:02Speaker 9: it's a blockade not for anybody but I ran. In
- 8:04Speaker 9: other words, anybody doing business with Iran can't go through.
- 8:07Speaker 9: Everyone else we'll be able.
- 8:08Speaker 10: To go through.
- 8:09Speaker 1: Yeah, so we're letting other ships go through. Also, remember
- 8:11Speaker 1: we don't use any oil from the Straight of Horn Mooose.
- 8:14Speaker 1: We don't need a drop of oil from there. We've
- 8:16Speaker 1: never used it. We use all our own oil. In fact,
- 8:18Speaker 1: we have more oil than we need. We are now
- 8:20Speaker 1: the biggest exporter of oil in the world.
- 8:24Speaker 11: We're taking on all of their capability for anything having
- 8:28Speaker 11: to do with a straight with a hormone straight and
- 8:30Speaker 11: I think in the end we will end up discontrolling
- 8:34Speaker 11: the whole thing.
- 8:35Speaker 1: Yeah, probably the strongest military in the world.
- 8:39Speaker 12: Energy.
- 8:40Speaker 1: The President's going to make a speech Thursday night, primetime address.
- 8:43Speaker 1: This is a thing of the past, you know, to
- 8:44Speaker 1: make these primetime address network TV, and nobody watches network
- 8:49Speaker 1: TV anymore. If if you're the biggest show on primetime
- 8:54Speaker 1: on a Thursday night, maybe you got two or three
- 8:57Speaker 1: million viewers, it's not much. I mean he has more viewers.
- 9:01Speaker 1: The five has like four million viewers. Sean Hannity Radio
- 9:05Speaker 1: show is almost seventeen million listeners. So at night, where
- 9:11Speaker 1: it used to be everybody watching primetime TV, everybody is streaming.
- 9:15Speaker 1: It's Netflix, it's Cable News, it's Peacock, it's HBO Max,
- 9:20Speaker 1: it's Apple TV. So you can do a primetime address
- 9:23Speaker 1: on television. It doesn't reach a lot of people now.
- 9:28Speaker 1: The President last night on Greg Kelly Reports, great show
- 9:32Speaker 1: on Newsmax. Every night at nine you should be watching
- 9:35Speaker 1: Greg Kelly. The President calling in to talk about all
- 9:39Speaker 1: of this the deal.
- 9:41Speaker 13: We hit him very hard last night.
- 9:42Speaker 14: Every time they send a drone, we hit him very hard.
- 9:45Speaker 14: But we had a deal.
- 9:46Speaker 13: But nobody knows we had a deal.
- 9:48Speaker 7: It was a done deal and then they broke it.
- 9:50Speaker 1: Yeah. So, and he will talk Thursday night, but it is.
- 9:54Speaker 15: More now we're going to guard it, and we're going
- 9:56Speaker 15: to get paid for guarding it a lot of money.
- 9:59Speaker 8: But we just want to be reimbursed for doing all
- 10:02Speaker 8: of this, for putting our people in danger.
- 10:04Speaker 1: Now. Apparently Thursday night speech will not just be a rant.
- 10:08Speaker 1: It'll be a whole bunch of topics. He'll cover a
- 10:11Speaker 1: little everything. He will talk about election, you know, safety,
- 10:16Speaker 1: securing our elections, to Save America Act. He'll talk about,
- 10:21Speaker 1: you know, elections in Georgia that didn't seem legitimate. You
- 10:24Speaker 1: got to do this just to rile up the left.
- 10:26Speaker 1: They'll go Absolutelyn's MSNBC will cut out of the speech
- 10:29Speaker 1: right then and there. He will talk about Los Angeles.
- 10:34Speaker 1: It is a very strange situation in Los Angeles where
- 10:38Speaker 1: this guy Pratt is in the lead. Everybody goes to vote,
- 10:41Speaker 1: he seems to be the winner, and then all of
- 10:43Speaker 1: a sudden, these male in votes come in from somewhere
- 10:47Speaker 1: and there are one hundred percent against Pratt. It's just
- 10:50Speaker 1: statistically impossible. I mean, it just doesn't make any sense.
- 10:54Speaker 1: So he's going to bring that up. That will drive
- 10:56Speaker 1: the left absolutely crazy. But it hasn't really exploded yet
- 11:02Speaker 1: as a big story. But in Maine, Ice killed somebody.
- 11:05Speaker 1: They shot somebody. They were looking for an illegal criminal alien.
- 11:10Speaker 1: This wasn't the guy they were looking for. But this guy,
- 11:13Speaker 1: and I don't know what it was all about, took
- 11:15Speaker 1: his car and tried to run down ICE agents. They
- 11:18Speaker 1: had to fire. Witnesses back this up. There are a
- 11:22Speaker 1: couple of witnesses that were just in the streets that
- 11:24Speaker 1: the guy tried to run them over with his car,
- 11:28Speaker 1: So it was a justified firing. But you can have
- 11:31Speaker 1: all these Democrats try to make this a big issue.
- 11:34Speaker 1: They think it'll help Democrats win the Senate seat in Maine.
- 11:38Speaker 1: Here's Markey.
- 11:39Speaker 16: This morning, Ice murdered a man in Maine. I am
- 11:42Speaker 16: horrified by this attack and devastated that it happened here
- 11:46Speaker 16: in New England. Another life taken and another family left
- 11:51Speaker 16: grieving because of Trump's thugs. We cannot be silent in
- 11:56Speaker 16: the face of this corrupt, criminal organization.
- 12:00Speaker 1: So you're going to hear a lot of that Trump's
- 12:02Speaker 1: thugs and the Nazi stormtroopers. They murdered a guy, they
- 12:06Speaker 1: shot somebody and cold it. Well, they'll forget to mention
- 12:08Speaker 1: the guy was in his car and trying to run
- 12:10Speaker 1: them over, who was trying to ram them with his car.
- 12:13Speaker 1: He was ordered to stop, ordered to get out, and
- 12:15Speaker 1: instead tried to ram his car into them. So that's
- 12:19Speaker 1: ald that's a big thing to leave out, and you'll
- 12:22Speaker 1: hear democrats leave that out of every description. Hey, this
- 12:26Speaker 1: Legionnaire's disease is scaring a lot of people. It's all
- 12:30Speaker 1: over the Upper east Side. Two cases have now been
- 12:32Speaker 1: discovered on the Upper west Side. It happens on the
- 12:35Speaker 1: top of the apartment building in that water tank, the
- 12:38Speaker 1: water cooler tower there, and it's a Legionella virus and
- 12:43Speaker 1: the bacteria and it can just suddenly naturally form in
- 12:47Speaker 1: the water. And the thing that really makes it happen
- 12:52Speaker 1: is heat, a lot of heat still water that gets very,
- 12:55Speaker 1: very very warm. And this Legionnaire's outbreak, we think as
- 13:00Speaker 1: a result in large part because of the heat wave
- 13:03Speaker 1: fourth of July week, and remember the three days of
- 13:05Speaker 1: one hundred degree heat that may have caused a lot
- 13:08Speaker 1: of that to spread. Now tomorrow we've got another heat wave.
- 13:12Speaker 1: It's gonna be one day. It's going to be ninety eight.
- 13:15Speaker 1: Won't quite feel as bad as that Fourth of July
- 13:18Speaker 1: stuff because it's a little less humid. But it's another
- 13:22Speaker 1: heat wave for one day, and they're worried that could
- 13:26Speaker 1: start some more legionnaires spreading into those water towers the
- 13:29Speaker 1: heat the still water. And they're supposed to the solution
- 13:34Speaker 1: of this, you got to inspect every tower, test every
- 13:37Speaker 1: tower and clean it up if there's any legionnaires in there.
- 13:41Speaker 1: City's supposed to do that. Apparently they're not doing it
- 13:43Speaker 1: at the speed they should be doing. It's going slowly,
- 13:47Speaker 1: and Mayor Mom Danni is busy with TikTok and speeches
- 13:50Speaker 1: and all that, and he's not a manager. This is
- 13:53Speaker 1: the first job he's ever had. This is where you
- 13:54Speaker 1: need some real management guys who can increase the effort.
- 13:59Speaker 1: Make sure you get all these towers checked as fast
- 14:01Speaker 1: as possible. But we'll get back to mom Donnie. It's
- 14:05Speaker 1: a FIFA FIFA week. It's over Sunday. Sunday's the final
- 14:09Speaker 1: FIFA game, thank goodness. And then they get the hell
- 14:12Speaker 1: out of here? And is the All Star game tonight
- 14:16Speaker 1: or tomorrow? The home run derby was last night. Tonight's
- 14:19Speaker 1: the All Star game National League versus American League. It's
- 14:23Speaker 1: one of the silliest things in the world. I like
- 14:27Speaker 1: that home run derby. That's pretty good. But this All
- 14:30Speaker 1: Star game, so that's tonight, and then I'm sure Thursday
- 14:35Speaker 1: night it's a big FIFA game. So the President not
- 14:38Speaker 1: taking that into consideration. If you do a primetime speech
- 14:42Speaker 1: against that, Hey, we'll take some calls. Next. Eight hundred
- 14:45Speaker 1: three to two one zero seven ten is the number.
- 14:49Speaker 1: Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten. Give wr
- 14:55Speaker 1: Bri said on the iHeartRadio app to.
- 14:57Speaker 4: Hear Mark Simone and all the hosts in an instance.
- 15:02Speaker 14: Now back to the Mark Simo show on wor.
- 15:08Speaker 1: Well, Let's take some calls. Eight hundred three two one
- 15:12Speaker 1: zero seven ten is the number. Eight hundred three to
- 15:15Speaker 1: two one zero seven ten. Let's go to Bob in Montvale,
- 15:20Speaker 1: New Jersey. Bob, how you doing, Bob?
- 15:25Speaker 7: Oh?
- 15:26Speaker 15: I'm sorry?
- 15:26Speaker 1: Hello, let's go Bob.
- 15:29Speaker 15: I'm sorry takes for taking my call. You know, you
- 15:34Speaker 15: keep broadcasting that. The two governors and Mandani were at
- 15:38Speaker 15: the soccer game. But contractually, does that mean they got
- 15:43Speaker 15: paid No, Now, why would they be at the soccer
- 15:50Speaker 15: games from the contract?
- 15:52Speaker 1: Yeah, it's supposed to help promote the soccer. It's good
- 15:54Speaker 1: for business, it's good for tourism, brings in a lot
- 15:57Speaker 1: of revenue, a lot of money. Tell you're bussed to
- 15:59Speaker 1: go there and you pretend that you're interested and you're
- 16:02Speaker 1: watching it. It's a all right, just wondering when you're
- 16:05Speaker 1: a governor or mayor, I mean there's a lot of
- 16:07Speaker 1: great parts of the job, but then you got to
- 16:09Speaker 1: sit through a lot of stuff. Now, Mom, Donnie might
- 16:11Speaker 1: be a soccer fan growing up where he did, But
- 16:15Speaker 1: I'm a feeling that Kathy Hockel is not a soccer fan,
- 16:18Speaker 1: and she has the attention span of like a mosquito.
- 16:21Speaker 1: So I really don't think she wants to sit there
- 16:23Speaker 1: for a couple of hours. But usually there's a lot
- 16:25Speaker 1: of people that you can mingle with. You know, people
- 16:29Speaker 1: think it's you could be the mayor of New York. Wow,
- 16:32Speaker 1: you can be the governor. Sounds pretty powerful, glamorous, But
- 16:36Speaker 1: half the day you're meeting with the water Commission, you're
- 16:39Speaker 1: meeting with you got to go do some town hall
- 16:41Speaker 1: in the Bronx. It's it's got a lot of stuff
- 16:44Speaker 1: in that job you really wouldn't want to do. Let's
- 16:46Speaker 1: go to Mike in Saint James. Mike, how you doing fine?
- 16:50Speaker 13: Mark?
- 16:51Speaker 14: Thank you? Is this an important question for the Iran situation.
- 16:56Speaker 14: Is Lloyd's of London ensuring the ships?
- 16:59Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the problem. We can open the straight or
- 17:03Speaker 1: declare it open and say that the US Navy will
- 17:06Speaker 1: escort you through the Strait. You'll have nothing to worry about,
- 17:09Speaker 1: but they still can't go unless the insurance company says okay,
- 17:12Speaker 1: and that's Lloyd's of London for most of these tankers,
- 17:15Speaker 1: and the tanker the tanker the actual ship costs a
- 17:19Speaker 1: couple of million and there's millions of dollars worth of
- 17:22Speaker 1: oil on the ship. So Lloyd's of London has been
- 17:25Speaker 1: saying no. That's part of the problem because they'd be
- 17:28Speaker 1: on the hook for five, six, seven million dollars if
- 17:30Speaker 1: anything happens to the ship, So they're not given the
- 17:33Speaker 1: okay that fast. We've gotten some ships to go through,
- 17:36Speaker 1: and we have been pushing Lloyd's of London to allow
- 17:40Speaker 1: some ships to go through. So it's not the usual
- 17:43Speaker 1: traffic flow, but there are ships going through the strait
- 17:46Speaker 1: of hornm moose. Let's go to Jay in New Jersey. Jay,
- 17:48Speaker 1: how you doing?
- 17:50Speaker 14: Yeah, Mark, good morning.
- 17:52Speaker 17: You know, we don't even report anymore about the fellows
- 17:55Speaker 17: trying to kill the president. You know, yesterday this guy
- 17:57Speaker 17: comes to the White House with a gun and that's
- 18:00Speaker 17: it's not even news anymore. Isn't that crazy?
- 18:04Speaker 1: Yeah? Well, how did you find out if it wasn't
- 18:06Speaker 1: a bigger deal? It was reported, that's how you knew
- 18:08Speaker 1: about it.
- 18:10Speaker 17: Yeah, but it would have been a much bigger deal
- 18:13Speaker 17: if it was a different president. Trump gets shot out
- 18:15Speaker 17: every day.
- 18:16Speaker 1: Well, the guy didn't come close to actually doing anything,
- 18:19Speaker 1: but uh, yeah, it happens too frequently. There's all kinds
- 18:23Speaker 1: of nuts roaming around there around the White House. Let's
- 18:26Speaker 1: go to Randall in Maryland. Randall, how you doing, Mark?
- 18:31Speaker 12: Yes, d it's something that's bothered me about the Butler
- 18:36Speaker 12: assassination attempt.
- 18:39Speaker 1: Yeah, when the.
- 18:41Speaker 12: Shots rang out, the shots that hit Trump was what's
- 18:46Speaker 12: a matter of seconds before the shot that killed the assassin.
- 18:52Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, let me ask you a better question. This
- 18:55Speaker 1: is a good question. And I see you're watching the
- 18:57Speaker 1: assassin and you you're wondering about this, So what did
- 19:00Speaker 1: you say to yourself? You know what I really want
- 19:02Speaker 1: to know, But I'll wait two years before I call
- 19:04Speaker 1: and ask. Aren't you a little late to be?
- 19:07Speaker 12: Well? Yes, a lot late, but yeah, I still don't
- 19:14Speaker 12: have an answer.
- 19:14Speaker 1: Well, who do you have an asking?
- 19:17Speaker 13: Well?
- 19:17Speaker 12: Well, why is the timeline between those two shots? The
- 19:20Speaker 12: shots that killed the assassin and the one that said Trump?
- 19:23Speaker 12: But it's only a matter of seconds. How did they
- 19:25Speaker 12: draw bead on the guy?
- 19:27Speaker 14: Uh?
- 19:28Speaker 1: Well, that's a good question. Now I'm trying to remember
- 19:31Speaker 1: it was you got to call like the next week,
- 19:34Speaker 1: not two years later. I'm trying to remember. There was
- 19:37Speaker 1: a local police on the ground coordinating with the Secret Service.
- 19:41Speaker 1: There were snipers on other rooftops. Apparently after the shots
- 19:46Speaker 1: were fired, there was chaos, but a couple of local
- 19:49Speaker 1: cops realized what rooftop it was, radioed those snipers. They
- 19:53Speaker 1: took their scopes, looked at the rooftops, saw the assassin,
- 19:57Speaker 1: and then killed them. Now you're supposed to check out
- 19:59Speaker 1: the room top before this even starts. It was a
- 20:03Speaker 1: tremendous error by the Secret Service because.
- 20:07Speaker 12: But it was bang bang. It was just bang bang.
- 20:09Speaker 12: It was like a choice player.
- 20:10Speaker 18: First.
- 20:12Speaker 1: Yeah, well, these guys are good, they're pretty quick, but
- 20:15Speaker 1: you're supposed to That was pretty good. Yeah, but you're
- 20:18Speaker 1: supposed to check out all the rooftops ahead of time.
- 20:21Speaker 1: The rule is for the Secret Service's supposed to scope
- 20:24Speaker 1: out a thousand yards in every direction, and this building
- 20:28Speaker 1: was like two hundred yards out. So they obviously didn't
- 20:30Speaker 1: do their job. This was the Biden Secret Service. Not
- 20:33Speaker 1: to blame it, not him, but you can put some
- 20:38Speaker 1: blame in that area because he when he was vice president,
- 20:41Speaker 1: there was a Secret Service agent that he liked a lot,
- 20:45Speaker 1: just she became like part of the family. So when
- 20:47Speaker 1: he became president, he made her the director of the
- 20:49Speaker 1: Secret Service. She was not really qualified. And if you
- 20:52Speaker 1: were watching Butler, you saw those those young agents. Remember
- 20:57Speaker 1: those two females who were They seemed going to panic.
- 21:01Speaker 1: They were just flailing around the president. And then remember
- 21:05Speaker 1: they couldn't holster their weapon. They looked awful. It took
- 21:09Speaker 1: too long to get him in the car. It took
- 21:11Speaker 1: too long for the car to speed away. Took at
- 21:13Speaker 1: Reagan getting shot outside the Hilton in Washington. He was
- 21:17Speaker 1: in the car and gone within three seconds. In the
- 21:20Speaker 1: case of trumpet was like a minute and a half
- 21:21Speaker 1: way too long there. Hey, when we come back the
- 21:24Speaker 1: brilliant columnist Liz Peak. We'll talk to her next on
- 21:29Speaker 1: seven to ten wor.
- 21:31Speaker 4: Mark Simosa on.
- 21:33Speaker 1: Sevent ten WR.
- 21:35Speaker 19: Well listen, brilliant column list Liz Peak. You see here
- 21:39Speaker 19: all over television, but most importantly is read her column.
- 21:42Speaker 19: You can get it at Foxnews dot com. You can
- 21:45Speaker 19: get it at The Hill dot com, or check out
- 21:48Speaker 19: her website lizpeak dot com. Lizpeak, how you doing.
- 21:52Speaker 20: I'm terrific. Thanks for having me on, Mark.
- 21:55Speaker 1: Hey, I love your column about affordability. Now in New York,
- 21:58Speaker 1: for instance, for twenty years, Democrats have controlled everything in
- 22:02Speaker 1: New York state legislature, city council, mayor governor, everything controlled
- 22:06Speaker 1: by Democrats. If there's an affordability crisis, wasn't it their fault?
- 22:12Speaker 21: Yes?
- 22:13Speaker 10: Yes, I mean, you know, sometimes I write a column
- 22:17Speaker 10: I think, surely everybody knows this, this is so obvious,
- 22:21Speaker 10: But then you put something out there with actually facts
- 22:24Speaker 10: the support a premise, the premise being that Democrats are
- 22:29Speaker 10: absolutely the last people that should be talking about affordability
- 22:34Speaker 10: because all the most expensive places to live in America
- 22:38Speaker 10: are run by Democrats. It's not like they just have
- 22:41Speaker 10: a Democrat mayor a Democrat governor. Generally speaking, the most
- 22:45Speaker 10: expensive cities and states have been under Democrats and toll
- 22:48Speaker 10: for decades. And why then are prices so high? Why
- 22:53Speaker 10: is the cost of living so exorbited? Why are rents
- 22:56Speaker 10: We got a new report today in New York out
- 22:58Speaker 10: of control York. Well, it isn't Republicans fault, folks, It's
- 23:03Speaker 10: because Democrats embrace number one excessive spending on all kinds
- 23:10Speaker 10: of benefits and so forth. That mean they have to
- 23:13Speaker 10: raise taxes repeatedly. Where does that tax money come from?
- 23:17Speaker 10: When it comes from you and me, But believe me,
- 23:20Speaker 10: it also comes from businesses operating in New York who
- 23:23Speaker 10: then passed along to consumers, so that jacks up prices.
- 23:27Speaker 10: Environmentalists also have a huge say in the governments of
- 23:31Speaker 10: New York City, New York State, California, Illinois, Maryland, whatever,
- 23:35Speaker 10: and environmentalists stand in the way of permitting. It takes
- 23:38Speaker 10: two to three times as long to get approval for
- 23:42Speaker 10: a building project in New York as it does.
- 23:44Speaker 20: Almost any place in the world.
- 23:46Speaker 10: So time is money in construction free month that goes
- 23:50Speaker 10: by the cost of raw materials goes up, the cost
- 23:53Speaker 10: of brick and cement and whatever else you glass and windows,
- 23:58Speaker 10: everything goes up. In I was involved with a university
- 24:03Speaker 10: in New York. We wanted to build a building. By
- 24:06Speaker 10: the time we got all the approvals him ten years on,
- 24:09Speaker 10: the price had almost tripled.
- 24:10Speaker 20: I mean, so it is so frustrated.
- 24:13Speaker 10: And then the other thing, of course, there are two
- 24:15Speaker 10: other legs of this really solid Democrat run stool. One
- 24:21Speaker 10: is energy policies that jack up electricity and gasoline prices,
- 24:26Speaker 10: which you know in New York you're paying an enormous
- 24:29Speaker 10: premium over the rest of the country on that. And
- 24:32Speaker 10: then are pro union rules meaning you can't, as the
- 24:36Speaker 10: city or the state many states, you can't do business
- 24:40Speaker 10: with outfits that are using non union labor. So already
- 24:44Speaker 10: you're talking about a thirty to fifty percent premium over
- 24:47Speaker 10: what you have to what you might be able to
- 24:50Speaker 10: save in constructing highways and schools and everything.
- 24:53Speaker 20: You know, Mark, it's so obvious to me.
- 24:56Speaker 10: Why is it that young voters they don't know anything.
- 25:02Speaker 10: But I mean a lot of a lot of Americans,
- 25:04Speaker 10: a lot of people in this town.
- 25:06Speaker 20: And stay blindly.
- 25:08Speaker 10: Go and vote Democrat over and over again, hoping it'll
- 25:11Speaker 10: turn out differently.
- 25:12Speaker 20: But guess what it never does.
- 25:13Speaker 1: Yeah. But a big factor is the media went totally
- 25:16Speaker 1: corrupt about ten years ago and never ever ever reports
- 25:20Speaker 1: this that when they interview a Democrat, they never asked
- 25:22Speaker 1: him about that. Yeah, So how do you fix that?
- 25:26Speaker 10: I don't know, and we just there are just repeated
- 25:31Speaker 10: examples of where the media is putting their thumb on
- 25:35Speaker 10: the scale. You know what, I think there has been
- 25:38Speaker 10: too little talk about.
- 25:40Speaker 20: What went on in Maine.
- 25:41Speaker 10: I mean, there's been plenty of talk about Graham platter
- 25:44Speaker 10: and all the bad things he did, bad guy and
- 25:46Speaker 10: a bad character. But the New York Times it's one
- 25:49Speaker 10: of the main villains of that story because, as you
- 25:52Speaker 10: well know, they did a catch and kill effort to
- 25:57Speaker 10: kind of put out there that there might be sexual
- 25:59Speaker 10: assault up revelations, but that it couldn't be corroborated. And
- 26:04Speaker 10: by the way, they completely squashed the story being told
- 26:08Speaker 10: by the Democrat woman who came forward and finally killed
- 26:13Speaker 10: off Graham Plattner's political hopes in this cycle. I say
- 26:17Speaker 10: this cycle because it's completely clear to.
- 26:19Speaker 20: Me that he might run again.
- 26:21Speaker 10: That people are just going to say, well, that was
- 26:24Speaker 10: just an unfortunate incident. But the New York Times absolutely
- 26:29Speaker 10: craft in a story. They could kind of get that
- 26:32Speaker 10: story out there of sexual assault, but do it in
- 26:35Speaker 10: such a way that most voters would say, well, you
- 26:38Speaker 10: know it was the reports were from a Republican who
- 26:41Speaker 10: didn't like his politics.
- 26:43Speaker 20: So it's a little bit like the woman.
- 26:45Speaker 10: Who accused Joe Biden of assaulting her, remember, and she
- 26:49Speaker 10: was completely dismissed because presumably she might have had a
- 26:54Speaker 10: political angle, although she was a pidon aid, so it
- 26:57Speaker 10: tells you she.
- 26:58Speaker 20: Wasn't politically motivated.
- 27:00Speaker 10: The media has a great deal to account for, to
- 27:03Speaker 10: be accountable for, and guess what it never will be.
- 27:06Speaker 20: But there you are.
- 27:08Speaker 1: Yeah, well it went totally corrupting an effort to stop
- 27:10Speaker 1: Trump in twenty sixteen, and then yeah, you know, they
- 27:14Speaker 1: had to continue throughout his term. And then I guess
- 27:16Speaker 1: they've decided, you know what, we like this model better
- 27:18Speaker 1: and we'll stick with it and it'll never change.
- 27:21Speaker 10: Well, it saved them, Mark the New York Times, I
- 27:24Speaker 10: think honestly would have been extinct if they had not
- 27:27Speaker 10: basically made their entire Remember they even the publisher even
- 27:33Speaker 10: put out a note about how basically anything was valid
- 27:37Speaker 10: in the effort to stop Trump.
- 27:39Speaker 20: That's kind of their mantra. Pretty horrifying.
- 27:42Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, you wrote a column, I think it was
- 27:45Speaker 1: a week ago, but mom Donnie's preening arrogance will ultimately
- 27:50Speaker 1: prove his downfall. What did you mean by to explain that?
- 27:52Speaker 14: That's interesting?
- 27:52Speaker 10: Well, I keep a running log of offensive things mom
- 27:58Speaker 10: Donnie has done, and it does and you know, all
- 28:01Speaker 10: I did really was kind of go back to that.
- 28:03Speaker 10: I'll say, Okay, he offended the Puerto Ricans by not
- 28:06Speaker 10: doing the traditional Puerto Rican Day event at the Racy mansion.
- 28:10Speaker 10: He offended Catholics, of which there are more than a
- 28:14Speaker 10: million in New York City by not attending, as every
- 28:17Speaker 10: mayor has done, the investiture of the new archbishop. They
- 28:21Speaker 10: have offended, of course, Jews by daily on day one,
- 28:25Speaker 10: literally day one, removing the definition of anti Semitism that
- 28:30Speaker 10: Eric Adams had.
- 28:30Speaker 20: Put in place.
- 28:32Speaker 10: And then you know fourteen other things that they've done
- 28:34Speaker 10: to offend Jews. But if you kind of go through,
- 28:37Speaker 10: the most recent thing that sort of tipped me to
- 28:40Speaker 10: write that was this map. And I have to say
- 28:42Speaker 10: I buried the map story. I was and bury it.
- 28:45Speaker 10: But it was like at the lead and then I caught,
- 28:48Speaker 10: you know, two days later. Everyone thinks it's this big
- 28:50Speaker 10: new breaking news. No, it happened in May that they
- 28:52Speaker 10: brought out this map of historic neighborhoods, ethnic neighborhoods of importance.
- 28:58Speaker 20: No Little Italy. I mean to you, I don't know
- 29:00Speaker 20: about you, but when I first came to New.
- 29:02Speaker 10: York, Little Italy was a big deal and you went
- 29:05Speaker 10: down there kind of yeah, because it was sort of
- 29:08Speaker 10: racy and the food was great, and there's been this
- 29:10Speaker 10: there was this rubout at Onbardo's Clamhouse and you know,
- 29:14Speaker 10: I mean, it was all kind of I don't know,
- 29:17Speaker 10: it was like stuff from TV Land and we all
- 29:20Speaker 10: thought that was really cool and to not include that,
- 29:23Speaker 10: and of course they didn't include Jewish neighborhoods, Irish neighborhoods.
- 29:26Speaker 10: It's just like this, you know, this drip drip drip
- 29:32Speaker 10: of offensive things that Mamdanie's done, which seems to me
- 29:36Speaker 10: a pretty weird track for a politician to follow. Mostly
- 29:39Speaker 10: politicians try to broaden his base. He's done everything he
- 29:43Speaker 10: can to narrow it, and that speaks to me not
- 29:46Speaker 10: of some intensely weird political calculus that speaks to me
- 29:51Speaker 10: of arrogance, and I think he is an incredibly arrogant guy.
- 29:54Speaker 1: Oh yeah, but when you say it'll bring his downfall,
- 29:57Speaker 1: how's that going to happen with the media totally backing
- 30:00Speaker 1: them up?
- 30:01Speaker 10: Well, because I think eventually, you know, we had dinner
- 30:05Speaker 10: with some friends last night who were Jewish, and I
- 30:07Speaker 10: think they didn't I don't know who they voted for
- 30:10Speaker 10: in the last election, but by gosh, they are so
- 30:13Speaker 10: critical of the thirty percent of Jews who voted for him.
- 30:16Speaker 10: I think Jews, you know, that group is sort of
- 30:18Speaker 10: going away from him. I think if there's a decent
- 30:21Speaker 10: alternative to Mom Donnie next time around, a Democrat that
- 30:27Speaker 10: is not a lunatic and who actually appeals to Catholics
- 30:31Speaker 10: and to Italians and Jews and so forth, I think
- 30:35Speaker 10: that's how that's how it happens. I mean, yes, he's
- 30:38Speaker 10: a great TikTok mayor, but meanwhile, you know, we have
- 30:42Speaker 10: rents at the highest ever and he was supposed to
- 30:45Speaker 10: be the guy that was going to change that. You know,
- 30:47Speaker 10: we'll see, right. I just think I just think eventually,
- 30:50Speaker 10: you lose too many people that you have offended.
- 30:54Speaker 14: I sure hope.
- 30:54Speaker 1: So. Yeah, Well, Democrats are losing territory. They lost the
- 30:59Speaker 1: working people, that lost Jewish vote. Gradually, they're losing every
- 31:05Speaker 1: little bit of that base. So well, I hope you're right.
- 31:08Speaker 1: I hope it continue to all right. Well, Liz Peak,
- 31:11Speaker 1: everybody read her columns at go to Foxnews dot com,
- 31:14Speaker 1: The Hill dot com, lizpeak dot com, and you read
- 31:18Speaker 1: her brilliant columns. Liz Peak, thanks for being with us.
- 31:22Speaker 20: Thank you so much for having me. Mark have a
- 31:23Speaker 20: terrific hot day.
- 31:25Speaker 1: Thanks. Take care. Yeah, it's going to be ninety today,
- 31:30Speaker 1: but the real feel makes it feel like one hundred.
- 31:33Speaker 1: I still don't understand that. If it feels like one hundred,
- 31:35Speaker 1: why isn't it one hundred? I don't know, but let
- 31:38Speaker 1: me just check you. Actually, ninety two will be the
- 31:40Speaker 1: high today, ninety eight Tomorrow. Tomorrow's the big heat wave day.
- 31:47Speaker 1: It'll drop back to ninety two on Thursday, then down
- 31:50Speaker 1: into the eighties on the weekend. But it looks like
- 31:53Speaker 1: rain Saturday and Sunday. Forecast could change. But that's the
- 31:57Speaker 1: way it is right now, So be careful if you're
- 31:59Speaker 1: out today for too long, it is going to be
- 32:01Speaker 1: a hot day. Real Feel again will be yeah, Real
- 32:06Speaker 1: feel well, actually not so bad, it says Real Feel
- 32:08Speaker 1: eighty nine now, but it's gonna be a lot of
- 32:12Speaker 1: heat today. Buck and Clay will be here at noon today.
- 32:16Speaker 1: They do a great show every day twelve noon. They
- 32:18Speaker 1: got the most listened to radio show in America, Sean
- 32:21Speaker 1: Hannity at three o'clock and Jimmy Fayla what a great
- 32:25Speaker 1: show every night nine to midnight on seven to ten.
- 32:28Speaker 10: Wo the Mark Simone Show on sevenor well, hey, that
- 32:36Speaker 10: home run Derby.
- 32:37Speaker 1: That's a big thing. A lot of people love to
- 32:39Speaker 1: watch that. It's always on the night before the All
- 32:41Speaker 1: Star Game, big network TV thing. Well, last night it
- 32:43Speaker 1: was on Netflix. It was not on network TV. It
- 32:47Speaker 1: was on Netflix. And apparently the numbers don't look so great.
- 32:51Speaker 1: It didn't attract the usual numbers being on Netflix. And
- 32:57Speaker 1: you know, this is a live broadcast. Netflix been trying
- 33:01Speaker 1: with football and baseball to do these live broadcasts, but
- 33:03Speaker 1: they have problems even last night, the audio, the video
- 33:07Speaker 1: crashing at different points during the broadcast. Now, you know, Networks,
- 33:14Speaker 1: all they got left is live TV. They're live. They
- 33:16Speaker 1: can do news, they can do football, They can do sports,
- 33:20Speaker 1: but when it comes to dramas and comedies and sitcoms
- 33:24Speaker 1: and movies, nobody can do it better than the streaming
- 33:26Speaker 1: companies Netflix, all of them, HBO. They can outspend the
- 33:31Speaker 1: networks like crazy on every show. They get the best writers, directors, everything.
- 33:36Speaker 1: But once they figure out live. They haven't quite figured
- 33:39Speaker 1: it out yet, but once they figure out how to
- 33:40Speaker 1: make live work, that's the end of network TV. They'll
- 33:44Speaker 1: be gone. They'll have nothing left without sports, without anything else,
- 33:48Speaker 1: they'll be gone. But you can end up back to
- 33:52Speaker 1: the same situation. It'll be live on Netflix and on
- 33:55Speaker 1: a few streaming services, and then basically it'll be back
- 33:58Speaker 1: to what it was before. You know, there's something kind
- 34:00Speaker 1: of nice about TV. It's always on. You know, it
- 34:04Speaker 1: doesn't go out very much, unlike Netflix. Nobody has a
- 34:07Speaker 1: better delivery system than radio. You just turn on the radio.
- 34:11Speaker 1: Wherever you are, there's the signal, even where there's no
- 34:14Speaker 1: cell service, no Wi Fi. Hey, we'll be back after
- 34:17Speaker 1: the news. We got another hour to go and a
- 34:19Speaker 1: lot to get to in the next hour. Here on
- 34:21Speaker 1: seven to ten, wor.
- 34:24Speaker 14: Mark Simoni's back on seventeen, WORLL.
- 34:34Speaker 1: Lot going on lot going on. So we were talking
- 34:37Speaker 1: about this incident in Maine. Ice killed someone. It looked
- 34:44Speaker 1: pretty justified. Even witnesses said the guy was in his
- 34:46Speaker 1: car trying to run in to run over the ICE agents.
- 34:49Speaker 1: They ordered him to stop, get out of his car. Instead,
- 34:52Speaker 1: he took his car and tried to basically kill them.
- 34:55Speaker 1: So and again, witnesses say that there's no body cam
- 34:59Speaker 1: footage yet revealed. But again you've got multiple witnesses. It'll
- 35:04Speaker 1: become they're trying to make this. Democrats trying to make
- 35:07Speaker 1: this a big story. It's all over CNN and MSNBC,
- 35:10Speaker 1: but they can't seem to get it to really catch on.
- 35:14Speaker 1: It's not big, big news everywhere, but they're trying to
- 35:17Speaker 1: make it so. And in Maine they're especially trying to
- 35:20Speaker 1: make it big news because they think it'll help them
- 35:22Speaker 1: in the election to defeat Susan Collins, the main, longtime
- 35:28Speaker 1: main senator. Now, she's not a big Trump supporter, she's
- 35:32Speaker 1: not a Trumpie, she's not a MAGA, she's not a
- 35:35Speaker 1: big Ice support. It's actually probably going to help her
- 35:38Speaker 1: in the long run. Now, I don't think they realize it.
- 35:40Speaker 1: They're going to play this up, not realizing in the end,
- 35:43Speaker 1: she'll benefit fit from it. I mean, they've got to
- 35:45Speaker 1: find themselves a candidate, and Susan Collins always in the
- 35:50Speaker 1: end seems to get re elected, so things look pretty
- 35:54Speaker 1: good for her. You know, you got all these main
- 35:58Speaker 1: people yelling and screaming about it.
- 36:00Speaker 22: The question is what did he do with his vehicle?
- 36:04Speaker 22: Were officers threatened? Were the threats rising to the level
- 36:09Speaker 22: that justified deadly force?
- 36:11Speaker 1: Yeah, it looks like they did, and there's witnesses. So
- 36:13Speaker 1: I don't see how they're going to make much out
- 36:16Speaker 1: of that. Governor hokel one year ban on data centers
- 36:21Speaker 1: in New York. All right, these data centers. We need
- 36:25Speaker 1: this for AI. You know, as much as people love AI,
- 36:28Speaker 1: I don't think they realize it uses like a million
- 36:31Speaker 1: times more electricity than regular Internet Google searches. It uses
- 36:35Speaker 1: a ton of electricity, and it takes massive data centers.
- 36:39Speaker 1: And you think, well, that'd be great to have a
- 36:41Speaker 1: big data center in art. No, because the problem is
- 36:43Speaker 1: the data center uses up all the electricity in the town,
- 36:46Speaker 1: uses up all the water supply. They're trying to figure
- 36:50Speaker 1: this all out, how how they can power these things
- 36:53Speaker 1: and what they can do for water but in the meantime,
- 36:56Speaker 1: Kathy hockle one year ban on data centers may be
- 37:00Speaker 1: a bad thing. To take a pause for a year
- 37:03Speaker 1: and figure out if we really want these or not.
- 37:05Speaker 1: Let's say it works out elsewhere, so it's possible Kathy
- 37:10Speaker 1: Hokeel actually did a smart thing here. As they say,
- 37:13Speaker 1: even a broken clock is right twice a day, so
- 37:17Speaker 1: it could have happened. There's a new study out that
- 37:19Speaker 1: shows there are a lot of millionaires leaving New York.
- 37:22Speaker 1: In fact, so many left New York that we lost
- 37:26Speaker 1: eleven billion dollars in tax revenue in the past year.
- 37:31Speaker 1: Eleven billion lost because of all these millionaires leaving. Now,
- 37:35Speaker 1: you remember the millionaires and zillionaires, they pay all the tax.
- 37:38Speaker 1: The top one percent pays like a forty nine percent
- 37:41Speaker 1: of the tax, the top ten percent pays like ninety
- 37:45Speaker 1: nine percent of it. So you really don't want to
- 37:48Speaker 1: lose them. You're losing tons and tons and tons of revenue.
- 37:52Speaker 1: New York has lost more population to every state than
- 37:56Speaker 1: it has gained from them. When New York loses population,
- 38:00Speaker 1: who benefits the most. Florida and Texas biggest recipients of
- 38:04Speaker 1: ex New Yorkers. Many of them very wealthy, so they
- 38:07Speaker 1: provide a lot of tax revenue. Number of millionaires in
- 38:11Speaker 1: New York, where it used to be almost thirteen percent,
- 38:13Speaker 1: now it's eight percent. That's a big drop millionaires. It
- 38:21Speaker 1: keeps dropping off. We don't course correct and get laser
- 38:26Speaker 1: focused on keeping these people here. It's not good. You're
- 38:30Speaker 1: going to lose a lot of tax revenue. Also as
- 38:33Speaker 1: a result, you're losing a lot of businesses. The number
- 38:35Speaker 1: of small businesses actually decreased in New York. That's a
- 38:38Speaker 1: very bad thing. The city council speaker, who's pretty good,
- 38:41Speaker 1: Julie Menin, she's pretty common sense, a Democrat, but a
- 38:45Speaker 1: common sense one, has been really really trying to talk
- 38:48Speaker 1: about this the last couple of days. We can't have
- 38:51Speaker 1: less small business now than before. It's just not going
- 38:54Speaker 1: to be a good thing. Top ex Iranian commander Iranian
- 39:01Speaker 1: military leaders says that Iran can assassinate Trump any time
- 39:05Speaker 1: they want. They can do it inside the White House
- 39:09Speaker 1: if they want. We are capable, he says. Now this
- 39:12Speaker 1: is tradition in that part of the world where they
- 39:15Speaker 1: just make these ridiculous claims. Remember Sodom Hussein made all
- 39:19Speaker 1: those kind of claims when we went to war in
- 39:22Speaker 1: the claiming he was going to wipe us out in
- 39:24Speaker 1: two seconds, he could destroy the whole country. They've able
- 39:27Speaker 1: to make these kind of ridiculous claims. But the Iranians,
- 39:31Speaker 1: this is a former general, he said, the country is
- 39:34Speaker 1: not actually aiming for peace. That's not their aim. We
- 39:39Speaker 1: are not negotiating for peace with Trump and his criminal
- 39:43Speaker 1: aids and the negotiations. We are only seeking to restore
- 39:46Speaker 1: our rights and clarify the accusations made against us by
- 39:51Speaker 1: the United States. As for revenge and retaliation, it's on
- 39:55Speaker 1: the table. Well, and of course the accusations are true.
- 39:58Speaker 1: It's Iran that was funding and financing and backing hesbeal
- 40:04Speaker 1: Hamas hoodies. They're the biggest sponsor of terrorism all over
- 40:08Speaker 1: the world, no doubt about that from anybody. Hey, some
- 40:13Speaker 1: suburban news. Now you could argue, where's it better to
- 40:18Speaker 1: live right in the middle of a big city or
- 40:20Speaker 1: out in the nice, beautiful mucolic suburbs. Well, I don't know.
- 40:25Speaker 1: I look it right here in the big city, although
- 40:26Speaker 1: I spend a lot of time out in the suburbs.
- 40:28Speaker 1: But some people think I would never live in that city.
- 40:32Speaker 1: It's dangerous. I want to be in the suburbs. Now,
- 40:35Speaker 1: let's take Connecticut for instance. You're living in beautiful Connecticut,
- 40:39Speaker 1: grass and trees and so scenic. Look and listen to
- 40:42Speaker 1: this story. Number of bears entering homes increasing at an
- 40:49Speaker 1: alarming rate in Connecticut. That's one thing to be out
- 40:52Speaker 1: in your yard and there's a bear, or you're having
- 40:54Speaker 1: a barbecue and a bear shows up, but they're now
- 40:58Speaker 1: entering homes at an alarming rate Connecticut in just this
- 41:02Speaker 1: year is confirmed thirty one home entries by bears. Now.
- 41:08Speaker 1: As frightening as it might be to look out and
- 41:10Speaker 1: see a bear in your yard, are you imagine seeing
- 41:14Speaker 1: a bear in your living room? I don't even know
- 41:17Speaker 1: what are you supposed to do? Just leave your house run.
- 41:20Speaker 1: It's the most frightening thing I've ever heard of. It's
- 41:24Speaker 1: increasing dramatically. Officials say it's because bears are getting more
- 41:31Speaker 1: and more used to people. They're getting more comfortable around people,
- 41:34Speaker 1: they're not afraid of them. They've also come to realize
- 41:37Speaker 1: that where there's people, there's food. There's always food around people.
- 41:42Speaker 1: They've been coming into yards because they go through the garbage,
- 41:45Speaker 1: or if you have a barbecue, you know that thing
- 41:47Speaker 1: just sends out the smell of food in every direction
- 41:50Speaker 1: and attracts bears. And if you have garbage and it's
- 41:53Speaker 1: not all sealed and everything, it attracts unsecured trash and
- 41:59Speaker 1: bird feeders are the two biggest reasons bears will come
- 42:02Speaker 1: to your house. There's other reasons, but now more and
- 42:05Speaker 1: more they're entering homes. They're going through windows, through screen doors.
- 42:10Speaker 1: They will not stop a bear if they smell food
- 42:14Speaker 1: and you know it's in your kitchen, or they'll smell food.
- 42:18Speaker 1: More and more bears entering homes. There's another reason to
- 42:22Speaker 1: live here in the city, not out in the suburbs.
- 42:28Speaker 1: There are I'll tell you one thing the suburbs have
- 42:30Speaker 1: that's better than anything in the city. Supermarkets. We don't
- 42:34Speaker 1: have the greatest supermarkets. You know, they're mostly just kind
- 42:38Speaker 1: of regular old supermarkets. They're small, they're cramped. It's right
- 42:41Speaker 1: in the middle of the New York City. You got Butterfields,
- 42:45Speaker 1: there's two of them in Manhattan. They're much more, you know,
- 42:48Speaker 1: higher end, but even they're not that big. You go
- 42:51Speaker 1: to the suburbs, they got supermarkets that go for miles.
- 42:55Speaker 1: There's Stu Leonards, it's ten miles long. You ever been
- 42:58Speaker 1: in a Wegman's in the suburbs, You couldn't go up
- 43:01Speaker 1: and down. There's like one hundred and fifty aisles. You know,
- 43:03Speaker 1: when you ask somebody where something is, they don't say, oh,
- 43:05Speaker 1: it's Ale three, it's Aisle one, one hundred and twenty seven.
- 43:09Speaker 1: You need a golf cart this shop there. So that's
- 43:12Speaker 1: an advantage of the suburbs. Hey, the best one is
- 43:15Speaker 1: my favorite is Uncle Giuseppes. They're all over Long Island.
- 43:18Speaker 1: There's a couple in New Jersey Uncle Giseppes. It's like
- 43:22Speaker 1: the Italian Wegmans. It's unbelievable. If you're ever out in
- 43:27Speaker 1: Long Island, wherever there is, just going to Uncle Giuseppes,
- 43:30Speaker 1: you will be stunned at how great it is. It's
- 43:33Speaker 1: absolutely incredible. They're opening a new one Wheatley Plaza. Was
- 43:38Speaker 1: that Greenvale? This is how big they are. They're opening
- 43:41Speaker 1: this new supermarket. Company wants to hire two hundred and
- 43:44Speaker 1: fifty people for the supermarket. They're actually looking for a
- 43:48Speaker 1: thousand team members in the next year. They're opening. Oh,
- 43:50Speaker 1: they're opening a couple more in New Jersey, Pennsylvania. There
- 43:54Speaker 1: should be a law passed that Uncle Giuseppes has to
- 43:56Speaker 1: open in Manhattan and that's it and Connecticut. But really
- 44:02Speaker 1: it's an amazing place. You've ever been to Italy? You
- 44:04Speaker 1: know that looks pretty cool. Uncle Giuseppes is that times
- 44:08Speaker 1: like twenty thousand, as long as you travel Long Island. Also,
- 44:12Speaker 1: congratulations London Jewelers, one of the great great Long Island stores.
- 44:16Speaker 1: London Jewelers celebrating their hundredth anniversary. Great people that run.
- 44:22Speaker 1: That's Mark you Dell and his wife Candy, and it's
- 44:25Speaker 1: like third generation London Jewelers. They're opened to Short Hills
- 44:30Speaker 1: Mall and they're all over the place and they're great
- 44:32Speaker 1: friends of iHeart, and they're doing just wonderful work. Congratulations
- 44:37Speaker 1: on one hundred years. John Stewart, this guy is crazier
- 44:43Speaker 1: and crazier. So he has Jack Smith on the show.
- 44:47Speaker 1: You know, the bug eyed weirdo with the cape that
- 44:50Speaker 1: went after Trump, the thirty prosecutor who's whenever they need
- 44:55Speaker 1: a hit man to go after some political enemy, they
- 44:57Speaker 1: always bring in Jack Smith. So when it was time
- 45:00Speaker 1: to get Trump, they flew him in from like halfway
- 45:02Speaker 1: around the world, right in Washington, d C. Twenty five
- 45:06Speaker 1: hundred guys who would have been perfect for special counsel.
- 45:09Speaker 1: But they went halfway around the world to get this
- 45:11Speaker 1: hitman to come in. So I don't know why, because
- 45:15Speaker 1: that case is long gone, the document's case at mar
- 45:18Speaker 1: A Lago. And it turned out Jack Smith was lying
- 45:21Speaker 1: about everything. Turned out there weren't boxes of classified documents.
- 45:25Speaker 1: In the end, all he found were thirty five If
- 45:28Speaker 1: you put him in a folder, that folder is one
- 45:31Speaker 1: inch thick, so it's one inch of one box. He
- 45:34Speaker 1: never made clear that all the boxes in those pictures
- 45:36Speaker 1: were not classified documents. But John Stewart has the guy
- 45:40Speaker 1: on and is drooling all over him, fawning all over him.
- 45:44Speaker 1: I mean Jacksmith had to wear a bib for this interview.
- 45:47Speaker 1: John Stewart is drooling all over this guy. And then
- 45:49Speaker 1: he talked about He said he was overwhelmed by his
- 45:54Speaker 1: manly manness. I mean, if you're looking for a if
- 46:00Speaker 1: you were casting a movie, I knew a manly man look.
- 46:04Speaker 1: Would you bring in Jack Smith, this scrawny, bug eyed
- 46:07Speaker 1: weirdo with the cape. I don't think So he's John
- 46:11Speaker 1: Stewart fawning all of them, saying, oh, I see a
- 46:13Speaker 1: guy like you I just literally want to do shots
- 46:16Speaker 1: with you. You look so manly. Now, this will give
- 46:19Speaker 1: you an idea how warped, how out of touch John
- 46:22Speaker 1: Stewart is with reality. He said, you see this guy
- 46:25Speaker 1: and you just want to go to a Giants game
- 46:27Speaker 1: with him? Can you picture Jack Smith at a Giants game?
- 46:31Speaker 1: I don't think so. I mean, he looks like he's
- 46:34Speaker 1: not a football fan, looks more like the birdwatcher, a
- 46:37Speaker 1: stamp collector type of guy. Hey, Alec Baldwin, the always,
- 46:45Speaker 1: always obnoxious, unpleasant Alec Baldwin. He and his wife Hilaria.
- 46:51Speaker 1: You know, they've had this Hampton's mansion for years, this
- 46:55Speaker 1: mansion that they've been living in. They live in Manhattan,
- 46:58Speaker 1: but they've got this mansion in the ham selling for
- 47:01Speaker 1: about thirty million dollars, but nobody wants it, so they
- 47:05Speaker 1: keep lowering the price. It was thirty million, it was
- 47:07Speaker 1: twenty five million, and then they brought it down to
- 47:10Speaker 1: nineteen million. That's a big drop from thirty million. And
- 47:13Speaker 1: it's been on the market for three years. Nobody wants it,
- 47:19Speaker 1: and they just delisted it. They finally took it off
- 47:23Speaker 1: the market. That's it. It's off the market. I think
- 47:29Speaker 1: it's because of Alec baldmen. You know how sometimes the
- 47:31Speaker 1: house is great, but it's people know it's a haunted house.
- 47:34Speaker 1: Nobody wants it. It's known to be haunted. I think
- 47:36Speaker 1: this has kind of this Alec Baldwin stink all over
- 47:39Speaker 1: this house, because if you look at the pictures, there's
- 47:41Speaker 1: even a video tour online, it looks like one of
- 47:44Speaker 1: those big Hampton's mansions. But nobody wants this thing. It's
- 47:48Speaker 1: an amagansett. It's ten thousand square feet, seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms.
- 47:53Speaker 1: It has a wood paneled library, it has a movie theater,
- 47:58Speaker 1: a wine room, a pool, and a spa. And nobody
- 48:02Speaker 1: wants it. And things are sounding like crazy in the Hamptons.
- 48:06Speaker 1: It's a big, big sellers market right now. So it
- 48:09Speaker 1: sound three point two acres, it has a lot of land.
- 48:13Speaker 1: I mean, it's got to be Alec Baldwin. It looks
- 48:15Speaker 1: pretty nice. Houses are sounding like crazy. This is like
- 48:19Speaker 1: four years. Nobody will buy this house. Nobody even looks
- 48:22Speaker 1: at it. They just delisted. It tells you what even
- 48:24Speaker 1: people in the Hamptons think of Alec Baldwin. Anyway, we'll
- 48:29Speaker 1: take some calls next. Hey, we're always uh this week.
- 48:32Speaker 1: We want a lot of new callers, a lot of
- 48:34Speaker 1: new people that haven't called before. We'll take some calls next.
- 48:37Speaker 1: The number is eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.
- 48:41Speaker 1: Is the number eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.
- 48:46Speaker 3: It's the Mark Simon Shell live from the DOBR Lifeback studios.
- 48:54Speaker 1: Well, let's take some calls. Eight hundred three to two
- 48:56Speaker 1: one zero seven to ten is the number, eight hundred
- 49:01Speaker 1: zero seven ten. Let's go to fay in Ramapo. Faye,
- 49:04Speaker 1: how you doing?
- 49:06Speaker 23: Okay okay. I just want to respond to Mandami saying
- 49:11Speaker 23: that Reagan, we are from the government and we are
- 49:13Speaker 23: here to help you. He mocked it. And my family
- 49:18Speaker 23: has a background in Russia and the under communism. The
- 49:22Speaker 23: problem with that, which no one pointed out, and I
- 49:24Speaker 23: think it's very important to point out, is when the
- 49:27Speaker 23: government comes, the government is not an abstract entity, it's people.
- 49:32Speaker 23: When people come from the government and they want to
- 49:35Speaker 23: help you, more than they want to help you, they
- 49:37Speaker 23: want to keep their job. And so anyone who comes
- 49:40Speaker 23: from the government, their aim and goal is always to
- 49:44Speaker 23: have to help you. So whenever there was a war
- 49:46Speaker 23: of poverty, the war on drugs, education.
- 49:49Speaker 20: You name it.
- 49:49Speaker 23: When the government comes, they want to help you, they
- 49:52Speaker 23: want to help themselves, and they want to stay in
- 49:54Speaker 23: all bus as long as possible, and they keep this
- 49:57Speaker 23: thing going on.
- 49:59Speaker 1: Now, I agree the government. Reagan was absolutely right. The
- 50:02Speaker 1: government most of the time is there to collect money
- 50:04Speaker 1: from you, and a few times they're just there to
- 50:07Speaker 1: help you. Whatever help they give you will cost the
- 50:10Speaker 1: taxpayers about ten thousand times as much as if the
- 50:13Speaker 1: private sector did it. Let's go to Nick and Mount Vernon. Nick,
- 50:17Speaker 1: how you doing, hey?
- 50:19Speaker 13: Mark Mayor Koch always referred to himself as the Liberwood Saturday.
- 50:24Speaker 10: Where do you think he would make of Mandami?
- 50:27Speaker 1: Well, I'm kind of glad he didn't lift to see
- 50:29Speaker 1: Mom Donnie. You know, I'm glad Kach isn't around to
- 50:34Speaker 1: see Mom Donnie sitting in his chair. I'm glad Bob
- 50:36Speaker 1: morganhaw isn't around to see Alvin Bragg sitting in his chair.
- 50:40Speaker 1: They wouldn't believe it. You know, that's the problem when
- 50:43Speaker 1: you get let's say you got the greatest mayor ever.
- 50:46Speaker 1: Let's see, you got a Rudy Giuliani and he's the
- 50:47Speaker 1: greatest mayor ever. You know the problem is he can
- 50:51Speaker 1: clean up the crime and fix the city and do
- 50:53Speaker 1: a great job for eight years, and then a few
- 50:56Speaker 1: years later the Blasio comes along and puts it right
- 50:59Speaker 1: back to where it was. And then you get a
- 51:01Speaker 1: although it's not as bad as it was before Juliani,
- 51:03Speaker 1: but these Democrats they can undo a lot of that stuff.
- 51:08Speaker 1: Let's go to Stuart, South Carolina. Stuart, how you doing.
- 51:12Speaker 24: Hey, Mark, carry you. I just want to mention with
- 51:15Speaker 24: the Trump shooting. I was on Reagan security team twice.
- 51:19Speaker 24: I was a swat team, my son's swat team sniper
- 51:22Speaker 24: and there's only about two thousand in the country. The
- 51:24Speaker 24: fact they didn't chet that roof is absolutely unconscionable. I
- 51:28Speaker 24: could not believe that.
- 51:29Speaker 12: The Secret Service that.
- 51:30Speaker 24: I worked with was wonderful. They were very professional and thorough.
- 51:35Speaker 24: Plus you were talking about those two women who couldn't
- 51:38Speaker 24: put their firearms back in their hole serve. They weren't
- 51:41Speaker 24: even tall enough to protect Trump, and they left him there.
- 51:45Speaker 24: If there was a second shooter, he was gone. They
- 51:48Speaker 24: did nothing. I was watching this and I was apoplectic.
- 51:51Speaker 24: I could not believe how incompetent they were.
- 51:55Speaker 1: Yeah, so you're a local cops when the Secret Service
- 51:59Speaker 1: there you have to coordinate with them. And was that
- 52:01Speaker 1: pretty smooth the coordination?
- 52:03Speaker 24: Oh yeah, yeah, it was absolutely wonderful, It really was.
- 52:06Speaker 24: Reagan was was absolutely protected. You know, I loved him
- 52:10Speaker 24: and we would have taken a ballet for him in
- 52:13Speaker 24: a heartbeat to save him.
- 52:14Speaker 12: No, coordination was fantastic.
- 52:16Speaker 1: Apparently in Butler it wasn't so fantastic between the sixth
- 52:19Speaker 1: Services and the locals. They weren't even on the same
- 52:21Speaker 1: radio frequency. All kinds of problems like that.
- 52:24Speaker 24: So yeah, like I said, it was unconstable that the
- 52:27Speaker 24: fact that the Secret Service has had delved into a
- 52:30Speaker 24: complete inadequacy. I could not believe how incompetent they were.
- 52:34Speaker 24: Like I said, you've got to be tall enough to
- 52:36Speaker 24: protect the person you were protecting, and those women were not.
- 52:40Speaker 1: That's a good point, all right, Stuart, great call, Thanks
- 52:42Speaker 1: for calling. Let's go to John in Rockland County. John,
- 52:45Speaker 1: how you doing all right?
- 52:48Speaker 21: Mark?
- 52:48Speaker 14: How you doing that?
- 52:49Speaker 21: I heard you talking about the Hey I sent this.
- 52:52Speaker 21: I was under the impression that you could build them,
- 52:55Speaker 21: but you had topt of your own power. Weren't they
- 52:58Speaker 21: talking about the degenerating stations, the nuclear ones that they have,
- 53:03Speaker 21: like in the aircraft carriers. There weren't a whole city.
- 53:05Speaker 1: Yeah, no, apparently the problem is the people pushing these
- 53:09Speaker 1: data centers. We're putting out all kinds of stories. You know.
- 53:12Speaker 1: The opposition to them is financed by China, who are
- 53:15Speaker 1: trying to stop us in AI. Well that didn't exactly
- 53:18Speaker 1: pan out to be totally true. Then the other stories
- 53:21Speaker 1: they start spreading around is the AI data centers will
- 53:24Speaker 1: provide all of their own electricity. Well it turned out
- 53:27Speaker 1: not to be so true. There is ways with the
- 53:31Speaker 1: latest in nuclear technology where you could power it easily
- 53:34Speaker 1: with some nuclear power, but that technology it's not really
- 53:38Speaker 1: ready to go, and these data centers haven't really got
- 53:41Speaker 1: that to the point where they can actually use it.
- 53:44Speaker 1: So it's a ways off. So Hokle actually did the
- 53:46Speaker 1: right thing, just a ban on data centers for a year,
- 53:50Speaker 1: and then we'll see. Let's go to Rich in New Jersey,
- 53:53Speaker 1: Rich how you doing.
- 53:57Speaker 13: Too quick?
- 53:58Speaker 18: One comment on food and the second a political question.
- 54:02Speaker 1: The food one.
- 54:03Speaker 18: All right, I'm always at Patsy's in Harlem on First Avenue,
- 54:08Speaker 18: the original location since nineteen thirty three. What they told
- 54:12Speaker 18: me there is that the other locations just pay for
- 54:14Speaker 18: the name.
- 54:15Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Now the real Patsy's, the original we're talking about,
- 54:17Speaker 1: not the great restaurant. Were taling about the pizza place.
- 54:20Speaker 18: It's in Harbley, Pizza and the rect they have pizza,
- 54:23Speaker 18: a pizza walk up window on the right.
- 54:25Speaker 12: Yeah, but Patsy's in Harlem, then they have to sit
- 54:28Speaker 12: down Italian next to it.
- 54:29Speaker 1: Yeah, I understand, but most people will go to Patsy's
- 54:31Speaker 1: in Harlem. You're going for the pizza if that's really
- 54:34Speaker 1: what they're known for, and very good.
- 54:36Speaker 18: And my question.
- 54:38Speaker 1: There is a chain that brought the rights to the
- 54:41Speaker 1: name Patsy. So if you look all over the place,
- 54:45Speaker 1: even in the suburbs, you'll see a Patsy's and they're
- 54:47Speaker 1: using the name, it's not the one in Harlem. And
- 54:49Speaker 1: then of course there's the Patsy's restaurant on West fifty
- 54:54Speaker 1: sixth Street. Now that's totally different. It has nothing to
- 54:55Speaker 1: do with this stuff. The Patsy's restaurant, that's the restaurant
- 54:58Speaker 1: where Frank's and went all the time, Rush Limbaugh, a
- 55:02Speaker 1: million celebrities. That's the landmark, legendary Patsies. No connection to
- 55:06Speaker 1: the other place. Let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn, Vincent.
- 55:10Speaker 1: You've been to Patsy's, Oh yeah, I love it.
- 55:12Speaker 13: I love it. And last year UK Marra came. It
- 55:16Speaker 13: was Marriag's daughter. We had a great time. Stuart from
- 55:19Speaker 13: South Carolina is one hundred percent on the money because
- 55:22Speaker 13: under Mayor of the Blasio, we changed the police physical standards.
- 55:28Speaker 13: Now you have women who were five foot four and
- 55:31Speaker 13: a roly police and I don't know how these women
- 55:35Speaker 13: are even on the force, Whereas in Italy, men and
- 55:38Speaker 13: women you have to be a certain minimum height and
- 55:42Speaker 13: weight and if you get fat, they tell you to
- 55:44Speaker 13: go on a diet. Liz Peak is one hundred percent.
- 55:47Speaker 13: When she talks about why the rents are out of control,
- 55:51Speaker 13: no joke here in New York City. But what she
- 55:55Speaker 13: didn't mention is every time, especially a town now it's
- 56:00Speaker 13: a small three to four family walk up is flipped,
- 56:04Speaker 13: the city sees what it's previous successed value, and then
- 56:09Speaker 13: they look at what you sold the foot. They go, oh,
- 56:13Speaker 13: you sold the foot double the price that it was
- 56:15Speaker 13: sold the last time. Well, my friend, we're gonna have
- 56:18Speaker 13: to raise your taxes. And that goes quotes. Proof is
- 56:22Speaker 13: true for business.
- 56:23Speaker 1: That's passed along to the tenants and the races.
- 56:26Speaker 14: MO.
- 56:26Speaker 1: Yeah, well, Vincent, we gotta we gotta go do the news.
- 56:28Speaker 1: But great call. Thanks for calling. When we come back,
- 56:30Speaker 1: Bill O'Reilly, he's going to be with us next on

- 56:52Speaker 1: I think he's in the Hamptons. You know they got
- 56:55Speaker 1: one thing about that is Hamptons. There's no cell service
- 56:58Speaker 1: out there. It is the worst. It's because nobody allows
- 57:03Speaker 1: cell tower out there. Hey, he's with us now. Bill O'Reilly,

- 57:33Speaker 14: Cindy Adams give me a nice review on Confronting America.
- 57:37Speaker 14: Would have to change. The woman is an amazing I
- 57:42Speaker 14: think she's ninety five, isn't she ninety five?
- 57:45Speaker 1: Still goes out every night, still running around town at
- 57:49Speaker 1: ninety five. Pretty good.
- 57:51Speaker 14: That's probably why she's ninety five. So but anyway, where
- 57:56Speaker 14: you know, I have to write her a note. It
- 57:58Speaker 14: was a very nice review of Confronting America out September fifteenth,
- 58:03Speaker 14: in three order around Bill O'Reilly dot com. It's gonna
- 58:05Speaker 14: be a big book because it's surprising, you know, and
- 58:08Speaker 14: I give solutions, Unlike most politicians and pundits. I say
- 58:14Speaker 14: here's a problem, here's what we have to do to
- 58:17Speaker 14: solve it. And that you don't see that very much anymore.
- 58:20Speaker 1: Yeah, Hey, we were talking about this earlier. About ten
- 58:24Speaker 1: years ago. The news media went totally corrupt and totally slanted.
- 58:28Speaker 1: I mean it was always out little slanted, but then
- 58:30Speaker 1: it just went totally nuts. They just don't cover anything
- 58:33Speaker 1: bad about any Democrat ever, and if there is something bad,
- 58:36Speaker 1: most people don't get to hear about it. Now, you've
- 58:38Speaker 1: been in that business all your life. How had he
- 58:40Speaker 1: ever fixed that?
- 58:43Speaker 14: You can fix it? It's not gonna be quickly. And
- 58:48Speaker 14: so it happened because of Trump himself. And it's an
- 58:52Speaker 14: interesting evolution. So in the beginning, the media laughed at
- 58:57Speaker 14: Donald Trump, the apprentice and the guy with the hair
- 59:02Speaker 14: and the guy running around. He's got no chance, and
- 59:05Speaker 14: Jeff Bush will kick his bod. And then they had
- 59:08Speaker 14: the debate, and Trump just destroyed the Republican competition, made
- 59:15Speaker 14: them look foolish by running as a populist and saying
- 59:19Speaker 14: to the American people, Look, you want to over these guys,
- 59:23Speaker 14: they're not gonna help you. I will. And the public
- 59:26Speaker 14: bought it once they turned. Once the polls started to
- 59:30Speaker 14: turn in Trump's favor, the news media goes, no, we
- 59:35Speaker 14: can't have that, because he's not in anybody's pocket. See
- 59:41Speaker 14: that's the key thing that wr listener. You step to understand.
- 59:46Speaker 14: The media wants politicians dependent on it. So you've got
- 59:53Speaker 14: to bow down before Fox News or the New York
- 59:57Speaker 14: Times or CNN, and you gotta pretty much do what
- 1:00:01Speaker 14: they want. And Trump had no interest in doing that
- 1:00:05Speaker 14: at all. I don't even think he thought about it.
- 1:00:08Speaker 14: He thought he was gonna get a fair shake. I
- 1:00:11Speaker 14: told him very early on, there's no way a guy
- 1:00:14Speaker 14: like you outside the system. He's coming to shake things up.
- 1:00:18Speaker 14: He's gonna get a fair play. They're gonna try to
- 1:00:21Speaker 14: hurt you and your family. And that's what happened.
- 1:00:24Speaker 1: Yeah, so I guess, and in the minds of most
- 1:00:27Speaker 1: mainstream media they felt Trump was so evil, will do
- 1:00:29Speaker 1: whatever we have to do to stop them. But then that's.
- 1:00:32Speaker 14: Correct, and they even printed that. In the New York Times,
- 1:00:36Speaker 14: there was an article forget the guy's name, but he's
- 1:00:40Speaker 14: been around a long time. I haven't seen him lately,
- 1:00:43Speaker 14: and it said, look the journal rules of journalism, and
- 1:00:47Speaker 14: at one time there were rules. They don't apply to
- 1:00:50Speaker 14: Donald Trump. Okay, so we're gonna just do advocacy and
- 1:00:56Speaker 14: our advocacy. He's bad. You can't vote for him, and
- 1:01:00Speaker 14: we're going to try to hurt him. And they put
- 1:01:03Speaker 14: it Calford. That was a guy's name, Paul Celford, Colford.
- 1:01:09Speaker 14: He wrote it in the paper and all of the
- 1:01:14Speaker 14: others television networks followed that lead, with the exception of Fox,
- 1:01:21Speaker 14: which said, no, we can make money liking Trump, so
- 1:01:27Speaker 14: we can make money liking him, so we're going to
- 1:01:30Speaker 14: like him. The others said we can make money hating him.
- 1:01:35Speaker 14: This is television, So I hate him and that's how
- 1:01:39Speaker 14: it all involved.
- 1:01:39Speaker 8: Now.
- 1:01:40Speaker 14: To unravel all of that need very strong leadership, be
- 1:01:44Speaker 14: king of the government involved, because the government's going to
- 1:01:46Speaker 14: try to use the media for its own purposes, let's
- 1:01:49Speaker 14: be honest. But you need strong leadership at the top
- 1:01:53Speaker 14: of these media companies. And unfortunately, most of these people
- 1:01:58Speaker 14: are moneymen. All they care is profit, profit, profit profit.
- 1:02:02Speaker 14: That's all they care about. They don't care about the country.
- 1:02:05Speaker 14: The one thing that's different now is the social media
- 1:02:10Speaker 14: where I live, okay, because nobody can control me. I
- 1:02:14Speaker 14: run my own corporations and we do put forth an
- 1:02:18Speaker 14: honest presentation.
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: Yeah so, but they kind of got used to this
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: business model of being totally slanted totally and they've they
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: used it on Trump, but now they use it to
- 1:02:28Speaker 1: protect Platner, they use it to protect mom Donnie. It's
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: too widespread now to ever stop, isn't it.
- 1:02:34Speaker 14: Yeah, but I don't know if it if it's hopeless.
- 1:02:39Speaker 14: But the media as it stands, and that's going to
- 1:02:42Speaker 14: change now with the Paramount merger and CNN is gonna
- 1:02:46Speaker 14: they're gonna wipe out all their primetime people. They're gonna
- 1:02:48Speaker 14: be gone CBS is not what it used to be
- 1:02:52Speaker 14: in the sense that they have they have managers going
- 1:02:58Speaker 14: over every world, every word that these correspondents say because
- 1:03:04Speaker 14: they knew it was so far out of control. So
- 1:03:06Speaker 14: I'm not hopeless about it, okay. But the reason the
- 1:03:10Speaker 14: reason that the left wing press wants to pop off
- 1:03:17Speaker 14: a guy like Platner and Maine is because they hate Republicans.
- 1:03:21Speaker 14: The Republicans are now attached to Trump, the MAGA movement,
- 1:03:25Speaker 14: so they want Democrats to win all the races, even
- 1:03:28Speaker 14: if it's ma'am Donnie, they want him to win.
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: No, Hey, let's talk about Lindsay Graham. You do your podcast,
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: will do It Live. A lot of episodes out now,
- 1:03:39Speaker 1: great episodes. The Lindsay Graham one was fascinating, a brilliant guy.
- 1:03:44Speaker 14: Yeah, it was the last extensive interview he did, and
- 1:03:48Speaker 14: I'm you know, it's just lucky that I got it.
- 1:03:52Speaker 14: And it's forty five minutes about Iran and the big
- 1:03:57Speaker 14: picture there, and that's ill has not gone President Trump's
- 1:04:02Speaker 14: way Iran. Now I'm still hoping because it's better for
- 1:04:06Speaker 14: the world if Iran goes down, and I mean goes down.
- 1:04:12Speaker 14: So I'm still hoping that that will happen. But Graham
- 1:04:16Speaker 14: laid out a pretty persuasive case that, look, this country
- 1:04:20Speaker 14: for fifty years has been sanctioning terrorism, and what hundreds
- 1:04:27Speaker 14: of thousands of people have been killed, including US service
- 1:04:30Speaker 14: people in Iran by Iran. I wrote about that and
- 1:04:35Speaker 14: killing the killers. And now in the first administration, Trump
- 1:04:40Speaker 14: tracked down Solimani and they destroyed ices and they being
- 1:04:45Speaker 14: Obama is part of that. He doesn't get any credit
- 1:04:48Speaker 14: for it, but Obama was part of that. Obama made
- 1:04:51Speaker 14: mistakes but rectified and then threw a lot of stuff
- 1:04:55Speaker 14: at these terrorism but always behind the curtain was and
- 1:05:01Speaker 14: so enough's enough, right, you would think that the nuclear
- 1:05:05Speaker 14: weapon thing. And here's a kicker on this saw I
- 1:05:08Speaker 14: was debating on television. A bunch of people left these
- 1:05:14Speaker 14: all of them say, oh, Aron didn't have capacity to
- 1:05:17Speaker 14: build a nuclear weapon, and I go, how do you know?
- 1:05:22Speaker 14: Every intelligence report that the United States and Israel have
- 1:05:29Speaker 14: and NATO as well, says that the Malas are very
- 1:05:34Speaker 14: close to enriching uranium and building a bomb everyone. And
- 1:05:39Speaker 14: now we find out, okay that the Mulla's admit it.
- 1:05:45Speaker 14: They admit it, and there are satellite pictures showing the blue,
- 1:05:50Speaker 14: the uranium mines underground rebuilding. Now then you don't hear anything,
- 1:05:57Speaker 14: then need to hear no silence from the left who
- 1:06:00Speaker 14: made the erroneous claim in the first place, an absurd
- 1:06:03Speaker 14: claim because how would they know. How would you know?
- 1:06:07Speaker 14: There's nobody in Iran. There's no reporting there. That's why
- 1:06:10Speaker 14: it's so hard to get information out of there.
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: Yeah, but you know how Trump works. They like to
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: say he's got no plan, it's chaos, but you know
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: Trump will just jump in course correct constantly until he
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: figures it out. In the end, it should be okay,
- 1:06:25Speaker 1: shouldn't it.
- 1:06:27Speaker 14: I don't know why. You know, he doesn't want to.
- 1:06:30Speaker 14: He doesn't want to kill civilians and it would kill
- 1:06:34Speaker 14: I don't know if we really go after the infrastructure
- 1:06:37Speaker 14: of Iran. I asked me to be fifty thousand civilians
- 1:06:42Speaker 14: laying in the street. Yeah, he doesn't want that on
- 1:06:46Speaker 14: his resume. And that's the only thing that's holding up
- 1:06:50Speaker 14: the mullas that he, the president of the United States,
- 1:06:56Speaker 14: has not gone in to just wreck the Uranian That
- 1:07:01Speaker 14: means you could make a cell phone call. You have
- 1:07:03Speaker 14: a hard time going to the market to get food.
- 1:07:06Speaker 14: I mean you used are devastating that place like the
- 1:07:09Speaker 14: United States did to Japan and the Allies did to Germany.
- 1:07:15Speaker 14: That's how you end the conflicts like this. But Trump
- 1:07:19Speaker 14: does not want to do it. And I'm not criticizing
- 1:07:21Speaker 14: your president. You've been very honest with me about it.
- 1:07:24Speaker 14: He doesn't want fifty thousand dead civilians.
- 1:07:28Speaker 1: Well, I wish we had more time, but we don't.
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: But Bill O'Reilly's you should get his latest book. It's
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: a wonderful book. Great review today from Cindy Adams. The
