1
00:00:04.040 --> 00:00:09.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm around. This is the seventy seven w ABC Mini.

2
00:00:09.439 --> 00:00:14.240
<v Speaker 2>Cast, my great buddy John Katsmatitis. John Good Monday morning.

3
00:00:14.359 --> 00:00:18.199
<v Speaker 2>Let me start with this most importantly, how is Margot.

4
00:00:19.440 --> 00:00:23.120
<v Speaker 1>Margot is getting better. She had an incident yesterday where

5
00:00:23.160 --> 00:00:27.000
<v Speaker 1>she threw up some blood and we rushed into the hospital.

6
00:00:27.480 --> 00:00:32.320
<v Speaker 1>But she's okay. She had a bleeding ulsa also and

7
00:00:32.759 --> 00:00:37.880
<v Speaker 1>they sealed it and and she hopefully she'll be up

8
00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:38.759
<v Speaker 1>by this afternoon.

9
00:00:39.200 --> 00:00:41.880
<v Speaker 2>Well, there were any other signs before she started throwing

10
00:00:41.960 --> 00:00:44.240
<v Speaker 2>up blood. She felt badly for a couple of days

11
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:45.399
<v Speaker 2>or really nothing.

12
00:00:46.200 --> 00:00:52.200
<v Speaker 1>Nothing really, I mean they did an endoscopy endoscopy yesterday. Yeah,

13
00:00:52.280 --> 00:00:58.399
<v Speaker 1>and they found some old blood. But everything the good

14
00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:01.920
<v Speaker 1>users her stoppage, this was clear. The rest of his

15
00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:04.519
<v Speaker 1>stomach is clear. They sealed up the place where there

16
00:01:04.599 --> 00:01:12.760
<v Speaker 1>was that that tumor not tooman also right and and

17
00:01:12.799 --> 00:01:15.079
<v Speaker 1>everything else is good. So she doesn't have to do

18
00:01:15.159 --> 00:01:17.280
<v Speaker 1>another And this could be for another five years.

19
00:01:17.599 --> 00:01:19.519
<v Speaker 2>That is good. I know, let's try it. It's every

20
00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:21.640
<v Speaker 2>five to ten years. We'll give her all love and

21
00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:23.799
<v Speaker 2>tell her. Let everybody here on sitting friends in the

22
00:01:23.840 --> 00:01:25.439
<v Speaker 2>morning and all over New York love so and we

23
00:01:25.480 --> 00:01:28.000
<v Speaker 2>hope that she's gonna be okay. Obviously we love Margo.

24
00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:30.400
<v Speaker 2>You know the question I got to answer the most

25
00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:33.519
<v Speaker 2>on Friday night when I went to see Steve Whitcombe

26
00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:35.959
<v Speaker 2>and what with Bruce Blakeman so we can speak at

27
00:01:35.959 --> 00:01:39.040
<v Speaker 2>the home of Bob and Loreyna Dave Roberts in Southampton.

28
00:01:39.280 --> 00:01:43.120
<v Speaker 2>The question I got answered the most by Barr was, now, now,

29
00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:46.079
<v Speaker 2>how was Trump this afternoon? How was the shot out

30
00:01:46.120 --> 00:01:49.400
<v Speaker 2>with Blakeman? No, it was is John Tatum Titi's coming

31
00:01:49.560 --> 00:01:50.040
<v Speaker 2>Friday night.

32
00:01:50.120 --> 00:01:52.560
<v Speaker 1>I swear to you, well, you know I don't leave

33
00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:57.200
<v Speaker 1>the studio just six fifteen, right, and if this then

34
00:01:57.280 --> 00:02:00.920
<v Speaker 1>you had an escort to the Hampton. I did so.

35
00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:04.000
<v Speaker 1>I didn't get to the Hittils from nine o'clock and

36
00:02:04.040 --> 00:02:06.519
<v Speaker 1>the you know, everything's over by nine o'clock on Friday night.

37
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:08.759
<v Speaker 2>It really was. It was over, I think about eight thirty.

38
00:02:08.800 --> 00:02:11.199
<v Speaker 2>But it's a great showing. Bo Ditles showed up, Susanne

39
00:02:11.199 --> 00:02:13.560
<v Speaker 2>Miller was there too, and they did a great job.

40
00:02:13.639 --> 00:02:17.000
<v Speaker 2>Listen all day between President and Trump in Nassau County,

41
00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:20.199
<v Speaker 2>York County, doing a reactionally on something, but doing a

42
00:02:20.199 --> 00:02:23.000
<v Speaker 2>great job with Bruce Blakeman all the Long Island leaders,

43
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:27.439
<v Speaker 2>John all the police that was so special, and some

44
00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:29.599
<v Speaker 2>of these victims, and when I have a lady on

45
00:02:29.639 --> 00:02:32.560
<v Speaker 2>Weddy after you mcdalia Martinez, whose twelve year old son

46
00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:36.039
<v Speaker 2>was murdered in the Bronx just three weeks ago. It

47
00:02:36.080 --> 00:02:39.400
<v Speaker 2>was just an emotional, great afternoon. And then the again

48
00:02:39.479 --> 00:02:42.759
<v Speaker 2>the fundraiser that night with witcomp and Bruce. It seems

49
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:45.400
<v Speaker 2>to me, John Canton matitieuz I got friend Bruce Blakeman

50
00:02:45.680 --> 00:02:46.960
<v Speaker 2>has a lot of momentum.

51
00:02:48.039 --> 00:02:51.680
<v Speaker 1>I think he he has a good chance and he

52
00:02:51.719 --> 00:02:54.560
<v Speaker 1>has a lot of momentum. You know, Lee Sheldon came

53
00:02:54.599 --> 00:02:59.120
<v Speaker 1>within a few points. And the big mistake with Lee

54
00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:01.280
<v Speaker 1>it turns out to be young. But it can't be

55
00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:07.159
<v Speaker 1>a Monday Morning quarterback. Is the abortion issue. Even Republican

56
00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:10.039
<v Speaker 1>women have a big problem with the abortion issue. They

57
00:03:10.360 --> 00:03:12.520
<v Speaker 1>they feel that women are should be free to do

58
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:15.520
<v Speaker 1>whatever they want with their bodies. And when I ran

59
00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:18.360
<v Speaker 1>from mayor in twenty thirteen, I said, it's up to

60
00:03:18.680 --> 00:03:21.879
<v Speaker 1>the woman, it's up to her doctor and up to

61
00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:25.719
<v Speaker 1>her family, and that's it. I mean, you can't force her.

62
00:03:26.159 --> 00:03:28.319
<v Speaker 1>You can't force women to do not with something they

63
00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:28.960
<v Speaker 1>don't want to do.

64
00:03:29.240 --> 00:03:32.960
<v Speaker 2>Couldn't agree more. It's funny because they categorize me and

65
00:03:33.000 --> 00:03:35.199
<v Speaker 2>describe me and every article, and they what about me

66
00:03:35.240 --> 00:03:37.400
<v Speaker 2>every day? You know that's true, John, every day as

67
00:03:37.439 --> 00:03:41.120
<v Speaker 2>this staunch conservative. In the meantime, I'm like you, I'm

68
00:03:41.159 --> 00:03:43.879
<v Speaker 2>pro choice. How could I be a staunch yes when

69
00:03:43.879 --> 00:03:46.439
<v Speaker 2>it comes to money, when it comes to war, you bet.

70
00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:49.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm a stornch conservative, but I'm pro choice on four

71
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:53.879
<v Speaker 2>gay marriage. How does that make me or you staunch conservatives?

72
00:03:54.319 --> 00:03:59.240
<v Speaker 1>We're New York conservatives, right, we are pro people. We

73
00:03:59.400 --> 00:04:04.719
<v Speaker 1>listened when Iran as a liberal, a Republican liberal in

74
00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:07.840
<v Speaker 1>twenty thirteen and I was in Staten Island. People say,

75
00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:09.960
<v Speaker 1>how are you a liberal? I say, you know how,

76
00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:12.919
<v Speaker 1>I'm a liberal. I take care of the poor kids

77
00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:15.599
<v Speaker 1>of the inner city because now I'm chairman of Powell.

78
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:17.720
<v Speaker 1>At that time I was only I don't know what,

79
00:04:17.839 --> 00:04:22.160
<v Speaker 1>I was vice chairman of a board member. And we

80
00:04:22.360 --> 00:04:24.240
<v Speaker 1>take care of the kids of the inner city because

81
00:04:24.279 --> 00:04:27.759
<v Speaker 1>we have a heart. We want to have the people

82
00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:31.319
<v Speaker 1>that are sick in hospitals, not in the subways in

83
00:04:31.399 --> 00:04:34.319
<v Speaker 1>New York. So I'm more liberal than some of the

84
00:04:34.399 --> 00:04:37.839
<v Speaker 1>people in Aubany because that we used to have twenty

85
00:04:38.000 --> 00:04:43.279
<v Speaker 1>eight thousand people in Bellevue type institutions and guess what

86
00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:46.680
<v Speaker 1>not as five thousand and eight thousand and seven thousand.

87
00:04:47.079 --> 00:04:49.240
<v Speaker 1>You know where the rest of them are in the

88
00:04:49.399 --> 00:04:52.240
<v Speaker 1>subways and the streets in New York. And those people

89
00:04:52.439 --> 00:04:55.319
<v Speaker 1>deserve to be cared for, opened up. You know, take

90
00:04:55.480 --> 00:04:59.720
<v Speaker 1>Rikers Island for a biggion dollars instead of spending fourteen

91
00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:03.920
<v Speaker 1>big million dollars a new jails. For a billion dollars,

92
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:07.240
<v Speaker 1>you can make Riker's Island a beautiful place for for

93
00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:12.120
<v Speaker 1>for a Bellevue type institution where people need help. They

94
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:14.720
<v Speaker 1>need to logs every day, not to be in the

95
00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:18.519
<v Speaker 1>streets of New York, not to be in in the

96
00:05:18.839 --> 00:05:23.120
<v Speaker 1>uh uh subways. Uh, you need to take take the

97
00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:26.920
<v Speaker 1>vets off streets, give him a home, take the take

98
00:05:26.959 --> 00:05:31.439
<v Speaker 1>the Bellevue type people and need institution, put them there

99
00:05:31.879 --> 00:05:37.319
<v Speaker 1>and and improve the facility of Riker's Island. Uh. Instead

100
00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:40.560
<v Speaker 1>of building jails in the neighborhood near you, I mean,

101
00:05:40.879 --> 00:05:43.879
<v Speaker 1>who wants it to jail in in Manhattan or in

102
00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:47.560
<v Speaker 1>Queens or or in Brooklyn or or even the Bronx

103
00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:51.839
<v Speaker 1>and Staten Island definitely doesn't want it. I mean, we

104
00:05:52.000 --> 00:05:53.600
<v Speaker 1>got to do the right thing for the people in

105
00:05:53.680 --> 00:05:55.079
<v Speaker 1>New York. And I think that's what it is. And

106
00:05:55.439 --> 00:05:59.439
<v Speaker 1>I think, look, uh, Kathy Hoko, I know her very well.

107
00:05:59.519 --> 00:06:03.000
<v Speaker 1>She's a very nice lady. But I think that she

108
00:06:03.279 --> 00:06:06.839
<v Speaker 1>is being pushed by the mayor of the City of

109
00:06:06.920 --> 00:06:09.759
<v Speaker 1>New York, which is going in the wrong direction. And

110
00:06:09.879 --> 00:06:11.439
<v Speaker 1>I said that to him, But.

111
00:06:11.519 --> 00:06:13.399
<v Speaker 2>You can't do that. You're the governor. You've got more

112
00:06:13.480 --> 00:06:15.920
<v Speaker 2>power than the mayor. And you're right, Mayor, Mom, Donnie

113
00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:18.639
<v Speaker 2>runs the city, runs the state right now. Is becoming

114
00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:22.319
<v Speaker 2>the base of the Democrat Party, which is another issue

115
00:06:22.399 --> 00:06:24.560
<v Speaker 2>for them as we get ready for the midterms. But

116
00:06:24.680 --> 00:06:28.079
<v Speaker 2>that shouldn't be the case. And a strong leader would

117
00:06:28.120 --> 00:06:29.120
<v Speaker 2>never let that happen.

118
00:06:29.240 --> 00:06:29.720
<v Speaker 1>But she's not.

119
00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:32.279
<v Speaker 2>She's not strong, she's weak. She may be nice.

120
00:06:32.279 --> 00:06:32.839
<v Speaker 1>I don't know her.

121
00:06:33.040 --> 00:06:33.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to know.

122
00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:38.680
<v Speaker 1>Look, Lee's Elden Caterberry close. I think Bruce Blakebrin if

123
00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:42.360
<v Speaker 1>if he promises quality of life, if you promise him,

124
00:06:42.680 --> 00:06:46.399
<v Speaker 1>you know, Nasau County is the safest county in the

125
00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:49.920
<v Speaker 1>United States. At twenty five hundred and thirty eight counties

126
00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:54.000
<v Speaker 1>in the United States, Nassau County is the safest. So

127
00:06:54.519 --> 00:06:59.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean he believes in law enforcement. Nasau County is safe.

128
00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:01.680
<v Speaker 1>Suffocate out to you is safe. You know that's fine.

129
00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:03.639
<v Speaker 1>A lot of people come to NASA and Supper County.

130
00:07:04.160 --> 00:07:11.160
<v Speaker 1>And I had my guy who's one of my advertisers, Spiro,

131
00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:14.959
<v Speaker 1>the moving guy from Florida, on the Sunday Show, and

132
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:17.920
<v Speaker 1>he says more people are starting to move down from

133
00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:22.000
<v Speaker 1>New York. And don't forget JP Morgan has opened up

134
00:07:22.879 --> 00:07:26.920
<v Speaker 1>the bigger facility in Texas than in New York, Frank America,

135
00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:30.680
<v Speaker 1>bigger facility in Texas than in New York. So we're

136
00:07:30.720 --> 00:07:34.560
<v Speaker 1>going to slowly bleed to death. And New York City,

137
00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:37.959
<v Speaker 1>New York State. All the politicians. I love New York.

138
00:07:38.160 --> 00:07:40.959
<v Speaker 1>I want to save New York. All the politicians should

139
00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:44.759
<v Speaker 1>realize that we're in trouble if it keeps going like that.

140
00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:45.560
<v Speaker 1>No question.

141
00:07:45.959 --> 00:07:48.560
<v Speaker 2>Last one, I was honor John because you know I

142
00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:50.519
<v Speaker 2>was in the Hamptons on Friday night. If I want

143
00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:53.000
<v Speaker 2>to stay there, I was going to take you off

144
00:07:53.040 --> 00:07:55.720
<v Speaker 2>on your amazing offer. And I mean that to speak

145
00:07:55.800 --> 00:07:58.279
<v Speaker 2>at your Saturday morning breakfast, which I'd love to do,

146
00:07:58.480 --> 00:08:00.480
<v Speaker 2>it would be a huge hore for me. You John,

147
00:08:00.600 --> 00:08:03.120
<v Speaker 2>But we did go back on Friday night. Blakeman provide

148
00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:06.839
<v Speaker 2>the detail and they drove us back. But those Saturday

149
00:08:06.879 --> 00:08:09.120
<v Speaker 2>morning breakfast I know they do great. You got big

150
00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:11.399
<v Speaker 2>time people there who was there today so.
