your support. So yesterday I did intend to talk about

10
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:38,840
the New York City victory of the Socialist, but we

11
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:42,039
didn't get to it because we were wallowing in our

12
00:00:42,679 --> 00:00:45,799
mourning of the city of Charlotte and the election results

13
00:00:45,799 --> 00:00:50,119
we had here. So today we shall mourn the loss

14
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:55,560
of the capital of capitalism, New York City with the

15
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:59,320
election of the Gihati adjacent socialist, but totally not of

16
00:00:59,359 --> 00:01:08,439
Comi Zoron Mamdani Mamdanni, the Kami mom Kami. Anyway, we've

17
00:01:08,439 --> 00:01:11,319
got some of the exit polling. We see some of

18
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:18,480
the data now about how he actually won, namely timing.

19
00:01:19,799 --> 00:01:25,319
He is a very uh lucky candidate. That is not

20
00:01:25,439 --> 00:01:31,280
to take away from his perpetual smile, his handsome, good

21
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:38,959
looks his TikTok video capabilities, his man of the people

22
00:01:39,079 --> 00:01:45,799
scooping of rice into his face with his hands, because

23
00:01:45,799 --> 00:01:47,840
he's a man of the Peo police from the Third world.

24
00:01:47,879 --> 00:01:51,840
You see, that's how he that's how his people eat.

25
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,920
They his people being third world people that he is

26
00:01:55,959 --> 00:01:59,879
totally one of. Despite the fact that, uh, you know,

27
00:01:59,879 --> 00:02:06,560
he grew up in privilege, went to very expensive schools,

28
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,599
never had a real job in his life, never had

29
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:13,120
to work. Mommy and daddy are very wealthy and they

30
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,759
have supported him. So a true you know, like a

31
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:26,240
stereotypical socialist. Also apparently he ate what was it a

32
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:32,159
burrito with a knife and fork, as people in the

33
00:02:32,199 --> 00:02:37,520
third world do, obviously, right, that's the thing. Is like

34
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:43,560
from his ancestral homeland of Uganda, that's how they eat.

35
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,360
They take a knife and a fork and they eat

36
00:02:46,439 --> 00:02:51,360
the burrito. But when it comes to rice, well they

37
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,360
just scoop it up with their hands and shovel it

38
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:59,719
down their throat. That's obviously the preferred way to eat

39
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:04,800
or something, isn't it? Burrito specifically designed to be eaten

40
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:10,039
with your hands, so you don't need any utensils to

41
00:03:10,039 --> 00:03:14,199
eat a burrito. I might be overthinking this a little bit,

42
00:03:14,479 --> 00:03:19,280
but anyway, he lucked out. He lucked out in the

43
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:25,800
timing because you end up in a race with the

44
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:31,280
abomination that is ranked choice voting instituted now in New

45
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,439
York City in the primary. That's how you get a

46
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:39,639
radical candidate like him that gets through. And you have

47
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:46,879
somebody that is as loathsome as Andrew Cuomo, also a

48
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:53,000
NEPO baby, right, son of Mario Cuomo, brother of Chris

49
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:59,199
Mario Cuomo. As Curtis Leewood dubbed him killing granny's and

50
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:04,000
slapping fans. Right. The guy was run out of office

51
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:08,319
in scandal. And this is who the Democrat quote unquote

52
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:12,560
establishment thought would be the guy to take down Mom

53
00:04:12,599 --> 00:04:15,719
Donnie or the guy to win the mayor's race against

54
00:04:15,879 --> 00:04:22,360
Eric Adams, also not a great mayor, right. That's part

55
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,360
of the reason why you had all of these people

56
00:04:24,439 --> 00:04:29,319
challenging Eric Adams. He you know, was criminally indicted. It

57
00:04:29,519 --> 00:04:36,279
was dropped by the Trump administration. But scandal like that,

58
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,759
and you know Eric Adams had not done himself any favors.

59
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,759
And then anyway, so you have a terrible mayor candidate

60
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:47,480
gets indicted, then you've got the primary, and you've got

61
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,399
the rank choice voting, and you've got Andrew Cuomo as

62
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:54,839
some sort of you know, self anointed savior. So Mom

63
00:04:54,879 --> 00:04:59,519
Donnie definitely benefited from the circumstances. And again that's not

64
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,480
to take a way from his man of the people

65
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:09,319
campaigned stick right, because he did knock on doors. He

66
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:13,759
had he got the entire New York City Democratic Socialists

67
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:18,199
of America, the DSA had all of them backing him

68
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:24,680
because he had been part of the DSA for years.

69
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:33,319
But per the NBC exit polls, he lost people. So

70
00:05:33,519 --> 00:05:36,680
when people showed up to vote, what they were asked like,

71
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:41,639
what are their big issues? And Mom Donnie lost immigration

72
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:47,120
voters by twenty six points. Okay, if that was your

73
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:53,680
top issue, you were not voting for Mom Donnie. If

74
00:05:53,759 --> 00:05:57,240
crime was your number one issue, he lost those by

75
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:01,920
forty one points, Which is weird because like I would

76
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,199
have thought a campaign message of, you know, defunding the police,

77
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,240
but I totally don't believe that anymore because I just

78
00:06:07,319 --> 00:06:11,000
changed my mind like five minutes ago. Also, I want

79
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,560
to disband certain police units. Oh and I want to

80
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:19,800
close down Rikers Island Prison for some reason. People who

81
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,560
you know were concerned about crime in New York City.

82
00:06:22,879 --> 00:06:28,240
They were not comfortable with those campaign messages. But here's

83
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,480
the thing. The issue that he won on was cost

84
00:06:31,519 --> 00:06:35,240
of living, right. That was the big thing. You probably

85
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:41,240
heard everybody talking about affordability, right, And his answer on

86
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:45,040
affordability is, well, I'm going to give it to you

87
00:06:45,079 --> 00:06:47,240
for free, and don't worry how it's going to get

88
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,079
paid for. We're going to tax a bunch of rich

89
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:52,759
people who are totally not going to move away. For

90
00:06:53,319 --> 00:06:55,480
reasons unknown to me at this point if he's even

91
00:06:55,519 --> 00:06:58,199
allowed to do it, because he would need state approval

92
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:02,600
to do that, and the state lawmakers have not expressed

93
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,920
any interest in doing so. Now maybe they do. Maybe

94
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:09,279
they eventually cave. They see the way the wind is

95
00:07:09,319 --> 00:07:11,680
blowing and they're like, okay, you know what, We're gonna

96
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:16,920
go ahead, and you know, give New York City communism

97
00:07:16,959 --> 00:07:20,279
good and hard like they're asking for. So the people

98
00:07:20,319 --> 00:07:23,199
who voted on cost of living, you know, free stuff,

99
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,439
give me more free stuff. He won those voters by

100
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:33,360
thirty six points, and that was the largest group they represented,

101
00:07:33,399 --> 00:07:37,439
fifty five percent of those who turned out to vote.

102
00:07:37,519 --> 00:07:39,959
People answered cost of living was what brought them out

103
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:41,839
to vote. They made up more than half of the

104
00:07:41,839 --> 00:07:51,079
people voting. So Mom, Donnie has been playing this game

105
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,800
where he pretends he didn't say the things he said,

106
00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:01,000
or says you're misinterpreting the things he said. The globalize

107
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:05,839
the Intifada, he chanted and tweeted and led protests for

108
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,360
and all this, but somehow another no, no, no, it

109
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,480
just means something else. It was just more of like

110
00:08:10,519 --> 00:08:14,319
a global opposition to what's happening in Palestine. No, it

111
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,839
doesn't mean the thing that it has always meant, And

112
00:08:16,879 --> 00:08:20,000
any honest observer of the situation knows the meaning of

113
00:08:20,079 --> 00:08:22,279
the term globalized the ante fada, which is why it

114
00:08:22,319 --> 00:08:26,480
is so offensive, because it's literally calling for people's murder,

115
00:08:27,279 --> 00:08:31,040
namely Jews murdering Jewish people, which, in case you're not aware,

116
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,919
New York City has the highest population of Jewish people

117
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:39,000
outside of Israel. I'm not sure everybody knows this, but

118
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,879
New York City has a lot of Jewish people. Okay,

119
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,480
millions a couple it's like one and a half million,

120
00:08:46,519 --> 00:08:49,039
I want to say, it's something like that. There are

121
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,120
a lot of Jewish people. I don't know if they

122
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,440
all own bagel shops, I'm just kidding, but they have

123
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,799
great bagels. I can say that because, like I grew

124
00:08:59,879 --> 00:09:03,360
up in New York and we ate a lot of bagels,

125
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:08,879
so we love the bagels. You've got him trying to

126
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,639
pretend that he didn't say the things that he has said,

127
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:17,840
or that somehow it's misinterpreted, or that the DSA platform

128
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,559
is not his platform, and so things that they say

129
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,879
aren't really things that he believes. Yet he doesn't really

130
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:28,960
ever say what things he disagrees with the DSA on. Also,

131
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,360
he's not a communist, even though he calls all of

132
00:09:32,399 --> 00:09:37,960
these communists comrades in all of his posts and speeches

133
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:42,080
prior to his run for mayor. It's almost as if

134
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:46,919
he is lying. I know, almost. But the thing to

135
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:53,000
remember is that rule number one of communists they lie,

136
00:09:53,799 --> 00:09:59,240
commis lie. They promise you free stuff, and then they

137
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:03,519
enslave you. That's kind of the trajectory, you know. Stories

138

157
00:11:07,159 --> 00:11:12,399
from the text line driven by Liberty Buick. GMC John says, mom,

158
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,559
Donnie probably cuts the crust off of his Peb and Jay. Also,

159
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:19,919
oh no, he actually yeah, he probably has the crust

160
00:11:19,919 --> 00:11:22,000
cut off. He probably doesn't cut it off himself. He

161
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:27,799
probably has his mom or his his family's chef or

162
00:11:27,799 --> 00:11:30,639
something to do that for him, Pete, I sense a

163
00:11:30,639 --> 00:11:34,639
little sarcasm in your voice. Really well, I am fluent

164
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:38,679
in sarcasm, so that does track. Michael says eating a

165
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,919
burrito with a knife and fork is just as big

166
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:46,159
a sin as eating fried chicken with a knife and fork.

167
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:48,879
All right, well, now see, I don't know about that.

168
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,600
If you're in like a fancy restaurant and they do

169
00:11:52,639 --> 00:11:54,960
it all frufruey, you know, and they got like some

170
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:58,440
sort of like glaze on it or something, or they

171
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,320
put some sort of a sauce on it, you know.

172
00:12:00,399 --> 00:12:05,200
But yeah, generally speaking guests. But then again, they elected

173
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,799
some guy mayor I think it was Deblasio who ate

174
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:13,320
pizza with a knife and fork Like that should have

175
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:19,360
been disqualifying. That's what I knew New York was done.

176
00:12:19,639 --> 00:12:22,840
One of the musically inspiring things about communism is the

177
00:12:22,919 --> 00:12:27,279
dramatic old national anthem from the People's Republic singing about

178
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,840
the unity we achieved because of our great leader who

179
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:35,120
led us to freedom Mamdani's party and will cry if

180
00:12:35,159 --> 00:12:40,240
they let you. It is an underappreciated thing. The uh,

181
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:47,600
the great communist odes yes. So moments after being declared

182
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,240
the winner of the New York City mayoral race Democrats.

183
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,639
Socialist Zoram Mamdani opened his victory speech with a nod

184
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,679
to one of the most infamous radicals in American history.

185
00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:00,759
Mamdani thirty four years old. I never had a real job,

186
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:07,200
quoted Eugene Debs, a far left activist from the early

187
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:11,799
twentieth century who was stripped of his American citizenship after

188
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:17,879
being convicted of sedition in nineteen eighteen. Like Debs, Mam

189
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,519
Donnie has embraced radical policies, including broad promises to provide

190
00:13:21,519 --> 00:13:24,720
a range of free services to New Yorkers. He said,

191
00:13:24,799 --> 00:13:29,480
quote I can see actually says, I can't see the

192
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:35,399
dawn of a better day for humanity. Mamdannie quoted Debs

193
00:13:35,399 --> 00:13:40,240
as saying, yeah, he was a little screamy during his

194
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,639
victory speech. I don't know if you caught any of

195
00:13:42,639 --> 00:13:45,399
the sound bites, but yeah, he got a little shouty,

196
00:13:45,919 --> 00:13:51,080
as communists tend to do once they secure power. Anyway,

197
00:13:51,279 --> 00:13:57,639
Debs actually supported the Communist revolution in Russia in nineteen seventeen.

198
00:13:59,639 --> 00:14:06,919
Deeply influenced by Karl Marx, Debs had his citizenship restored,

199
00:14:07,039 --> 00:14:10,840
actually by a joint resolution of Congress in the nineteen seventies,

200
00:14:11,879 --> 00:14:14,720
he ran for president five times. I believe the trivia

201
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:19,039
on him that's taught in all of the the K

202
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:22,480
twelve lesson plans. I mean nothing about him being a

203
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:27,159
radical COMI, but that he ran for president from prison, right,

204
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:30,039
wasn't that one of his claims to fame, the thing

205
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:31,919
that all the kids learn that you can run for

206
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:37,879
president even when you're in prison. So he ran five

207
00:14:37,919 --> 00:14:41,759
times between nineteen hundred and nineteen twenty. And he described

208
00:14:41,799 --> 00:14:46,080
capitalism as a quote monstrous system, and said that his

209
00:14:46,159 --> 00:14:50,240
social and said his Socialist party was defined by a

210
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:55,039
militant spirit and revolutionary goals. This is a piece over

211
00:14:55,080 --> 00:15:02,039
at the Daily Wire by laife Lemaheue. And then Mamdani

212
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:06,399
said one of the most terrifying sentences I've heard from

213
00:15:06,759 --> 00:15:10,159
an elected official, although to be fair, he has not

214
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,519
been sworn in yet, but he did win the election.

215
00:15:14,399 --> 00:15:17,799
Here's what he said, quote, we will prove that there

216
00:15:17,879 --> 00:15:22,120
is no problem too large for government to solve, and

217
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:27,639
no concern too small for it to care about, No

218
00:15:27,759 --> 00:15:32,919
problem too large for gov CO and no concern too

219
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:41,480
small for GOVC to care about. That should terrify the

220
00:15:41,559 --> 00:15:45,679
residents and business owners of New York City, no concern

221
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:55,600
too small for him and his agents to care about. Like,

222
00:15:55,639 --> 00:15:58,039
I think I'm just gonna I don't think I can

223
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:01,159
drive back to see the family on Long Island because

224
00:16:01,159 --> 00:16:03,039
I got to go through New York and I don't

225
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,279
think I can do that. I'm like, I'd be terrified

226
00:16:05,799 --> 00:16:08,279
driving through the city. I mean, what happens if I

227
00:16:08,279 --> 00:16:11,320
break down? And then that's like it's a big concern

228
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:13,320
for me, but it might be a small concern for

229
00:16:13,559 --> 00:16:17,879
zoron Mamdani and then he and his commie pals they

230
00:16:18,039 --> 00:16:19,440
pay me a visit on the side of the road.

231
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,879
That's probably not going to end well. So direct flights

232
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,679
to just yeah, take direct flights out to the island.

233
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,840
Here's a great idea. How about making an escape to

234
00:16:28,879 --> 00:16:32,360
a really special and secluded getaway in western North Carolina.

235
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,639
Just a quick drive up the mountain and Cabins of

255
00:17:41,079 --> 00:17:46,359
So from the WBT text line from TK Pete, I

256
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,839
always enjoy your show. I'm an independent voter. It seems

257
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:54,240
that anytime a liberal or Democrat bends the truth, you

258
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,519
find a way to spend hours on it. You never

259
00:17:57,559 --> 00:18:01,000
seem to comment on the world. Oh I think he

260
00:18:01,079 --> 00:18:06,880
meant say world's biggest liar Donald J. Trump. Okay, so

261
00:18:07,079 --> 00:18:15,559
just a couple of points to make. T K. Anytime

262
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,359
a liberal or Democrat bends the truth, I knowe you

263
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:24,440
did not say lie. It's just simply bending the truth, right,

264
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:29,519
And it's also not any time if I were to

265
00:18:29,559 --> 00:18:34,240
spend hours as you claim, which is another kind of

266
00:18:34,559 --> 00:18:40,640
problem with the assertion, I don't spend hours on any

267
00:18:40,759 --> 00:18:45,400
time a liberal or Democrat bends the truth or lies.

268
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:50,200
You have no problem calling Donald Trump the world's biggest liar,

269
00:18:50,319 --> 00:18:52,720
but when it comes to a liberal or Democrat, it's

270
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:57,119
simply bending the truth. I guess. But no, I don't

271
00:18:57,119 --> 00:19:01,839
spend hours on every single liberal and Democrat who bends

272
00:19:01,839 --> 00:19:07,480
the truth. That's silly. I actually use them as examples

273
00:19:08,079 --> 00:19:13,960
to highlight double standards in that the fact that everybody

274
00:19:14,039 --> 00:19:18,680
knows that Donald Trump bends the truth, that Donald Trump

275
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:23,240
says things that are just like unsupported, and all of

276
00:19:23,279 --> 00:19:26,279
the fact checking industry that has grown up simply to

277
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:30,599
monitor every utterance and tweet of the man. Yet when

278
00:19:30,799 --> 00:19:37,640
people use wise about him or about Republicans and such.

279
00:19:38,079 --> 00:19:42,000
There's never this kind of fact checking effort, so that's

280
00:19:42,039 --> 00:19:46,319
what I provide. Also, I know I wasn't on the

281
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:53,200
air here when Donald Trump ran for office in twenty fifteen.

282
00:19:53,279 --> 00:19:56,759
I was up in Asheville. But yeah, I covered all

283
00:19:56,799 --> 00:20:01,519
of that. That's like ten years ago, made the case,

284
00:20:01,839 --> 00:20:04,240
laid it all out. You know, the lies that he

285
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,160
told on all sorts of stuff, and people don't care.

286
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:11,480
And just like you don't care about the lies that

287
00:20:11,559 --> 00:20:16,200
Democrats tell, people didn't mind. So that's why I use

288
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:20,240
the lies in order to highlight of the larger issues.

289
00:20:21,599 --> 00:20:23,839
And in fact, if you stay tuned in the third hour,

290
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,160
I intend to get to the Supreme Court oral arguments

291
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:34,319
from yesterday regarding the tariffs, where the administration lawyer was

292
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:40,240
making a case that I think is completely unsupported by law.

293
00:20:41,079 --> 00:20:44,039
So you'll get your fix if that's what you are

294
00:20:44,079 --> 00:20:49,039
demanding of me. This person just says, Pete, you are

295
00:20:49,039 --> 00:20:52,559
the best. Thank you. I appreciate that. The Hellia says

296
00:20:52,759 --> 00:20:55,400
Trump is a bs er, and I mean that in

297
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,400
a nice way. He will quote lie about a golf game,

298
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,519
but you can't take him literally. But seriously, yeah, I look,

299
00:21:02,599 --> 00:21:05,799
I rejected that hole. You got to take him seriously,

300
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:10,920
not literally, like I rejected that whole argument as well.

301
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:15,599
And here's the thing. What you've just engaged in TK

302
00:21:16,079 --> 00:21:21,680
is what about ism? Like I'm focusing the attention. This

303
00:21:21,799 --> 00:21:23,799
is why I build the show. The way I build

304
00:21:23,799 --> 00:21:27,359
the show is I focus on a particular topic in

305
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:31,400
each hour, and so I focus on this topic. And

306
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:36,880
this topic is the Jihati adjacent socialist but totally not

307
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,839
a Kami mayor elect of New York City, the financial

308
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:46,039
capital of planet Earth, or as Hassan Piker, that Kami

309
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:50,759
Stalin lover USSR lover twitch streamer who was at mom

310
00:21:50,839 --> 00:21:55,799
Donnie's party. He also shocks his dog with a shock

311
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,240
collar when it moves off of its bed during his

312
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:00,920
live streams. That's how he keeps it still for eight

313
00:22:01,039 --> 00:22:06,759
hours at a time. No, I forgot what I was

314
00:22:07,079 --> 00:22:10,839
forgot what I was saying. Dang it, mm I went

315
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,559
down that rabbit hole and uh oh, the take him

316
00:22:13,599 --> 00:22:17,519
literally but seriously In your your response to me pointing

317
00:22:17,599 --> 00:22:22,680
out that mom Donnie is this type of candidate and

318
00:22:23,039 --> 00:22:25,240
how he will govern and the things that he has said,

319
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:32,880
your response is, well, what about Donald Trump? Why does

320
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:38,519
that make mum Donnie not a liar. It's possible to

321
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,920
accept that they are both liars. You can believe that

322
00:22:42,599 --> 00:22:46,000
you can make that assessment. I am not required to

323
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,920
any time I point out a lie by somebody to

324
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,400
say well, and also remember these other people in this

325
00:22:51,519 --> 00:22:55,839
long list of lied to. So I hope that sufficiently

326
00:22:55,880 --> 00:23:04,599
addresses your text TK Andy claims he was the eighth caller,

327
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:12,359
but nobody answered. How would you even prove that, Andy, Well,

328
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,960
you'll have another chance to uh not have your call

329
00:23:15,079 --> 00:23:19,519
answered next hour, Andy, to win those tickets, all right.

330
00:23:19,599 --> 00:23:25,400
So this is from Jerry Dunlevy at Justthnews dot com,

331
00:23:26,079 --> 00:23:34,279
who made his way into a DSA zoom call. The

332
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:38,680
Democrat Socialists of America held a zoom meeting the New

333
00:23:38,759 --> 00:23:44,480
York City branch that'soron Mamdani belongs to, and they helped

334
00:23:44,559 --> 00:23:47,640
him win the Democrat primary back in June and the

335
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:51,119
mayor's race on Tuesday. But Mam Donnie has sought to

336
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,920
distance himself from the DSA's socialist and revolutionary platform during

337
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,960
the mayor's race, something according to Politico that the New

338
00:23:58,039 --> 00:24:00,839
York City branch of the socialist group gave him public

339
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,880
cover to do Okay, so they said, you can lie.

340
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:09,079
You can lie about your proximity to these ideas and

341
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:13,400
your support of our platform planks, you can totally distance yourself.

342
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,400
You got to do that to win. We totally understand,

343
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:21,519
wink wink, We know where your loyalties lie. Right. So,

344
00:24:21,799 --> 00:24:25,039
Just the News obtained an internal planning document from the

345
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:30,599
dssay's Anti War Working Group, the AWWG, or as I

346
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:34,000
call it, the OGG, which shows the group has spent

347
00:24:34,079 --> 00:24:37,559
weeks plotting how to pressure the new Mamdani administration to

348
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:41,319
carry out their socialist quote unquote demands, including demands to

349
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,759
push an anti Israel agenda at New York City Hall.

350
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:46,799
All right, if you're listening to this show, you know

351
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:48,880
I try to keep up with all sorts of current events,

352
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:50,960
and I know you do too, And you've probably heard

353
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:55,039
me say get your news from multiple sources. Why well,

354
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,759
because it's how you detect media bias, which is why

355
00:24:57,839 --> 00:25:01,000
I've been so impressed with Ground News. It's an app

356
00:25:01,279 --> 00:25:04,440
and it's a website, and it combines news from around

357
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,880
the world in one place, so you can compare coverage

358
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,839

371
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:53,119
Just thenews dot com piece by Jerry Dunlevy. He got

372
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:57,480
documents from the New York City Democratic Socialists of America.

373
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:05,359
He obtained it. It's called the Palestine Policy Meeting Agenda

374
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,519
and Notes, and it contains the internal plans of the

375
00:26:08,599 --> 00:26:13,240
DSA working group. The document was obtained when he used

376
00:26:13,279 --> 00:26:17,720
his real name to RSVP to the meeting, which was

377
00:26:17,799 --> 00:26:20,839
listed as open to the public, and so then they

378
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,039
sent him a link and he joined and he got

379
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:27,400
the document, which has since been scrubbed. They have taken

380
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:31,039
the document down. The link no longer works. Mamdani is

381
00:26:31,079 --> 00:26:33,079
a member of the DSA, but he denies he is

382
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:38,079
a Communist. The apparent anti Israel demands for a Mamdani

383
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:43,119
administration from the DSA working Group include Divest City pension

384
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:47,559
funds from Israeli bonds and securities. With Draw City funds

385
00:26:47,599 --> 00:26:51,920
from banks that lend money to Israel or do business

386
00:26:52,759 --> 00:26:59,200
in Israel. End City contracts with companies that do business

387
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:05,839
with it. Operate city run grocery stores free from Israeli products.

388
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:13,079
Investigate real estate agents hosting illegal sales of stolen lands

389
00:27:13,319 --> 00:27:19,839
in the West Bank. Evict weapons manufacturers and transporters from

390
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:24,680
the New York City metro area. That's not about the Jews,

391
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:29,480
that's just any weapons manufacturer and transporter. Okay, Divest City,

392
00:27:29,599 --> 00:27:34,079
University of New York Endowment and reinstate wrongly fired professors.

393
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:35,680
They were not wrongly fired. These are the ones that

394
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:39,319
were celebrating October seventh, led the student protests and revolt

395
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,920
and the tent to Fada and all that stuff. Oh

396
00:27:42,079 --> 00:27:45,960
remember that guy that was that was deported to El

397
00:27:46,079 --> 00:27:51,359
Salvador Khalid Mackmood or Mackmood Khalid. Remember that guy leader

398
00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:54,039
of the student protest even though he wasn't a student,

399
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,400
and he and they picked him up and they sent

400
00:27:56,519 --> 00:27:58,240
him to El Salvador and they're like bring him back,

401
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:00,279
bring him back, And then they went to court and

402
00:28:00,319 --> 00:28:03,200
they had to bring him back. He was at Mamdani's

403
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:08,160
victory party with Hassan Piker and Mehdi Hassan and Jamal Bowman,

404
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,279
the fire marshal guy, the one that pulled the fire

405
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:14,680
alarm to stop the voting from occurring in Congress and

406
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:18,640
then he lost his seat. Democrat Socialist of America like that, Yeah,

407
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,960
and they were all together in some video clip just

408
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:29,160
like giddy super masculine vibes. Anyway, end repression of demonstrators

409
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:33,599
and the SRG that is the New York Police Department's

410
00:28:33,599 --> 00:28:37,480
Strategic Response Group, the SRG, which has been used to

411
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:42,000
break up the protests, these violent protests that have locked

412
00:28:42,039 --> 00:28:46,160
people in their buildings and such. But they see that

413
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:50,319
as repression of demonstrators. When you don't allow us to

414
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:54,559
break stuff and harass and intimidate Jews in broad daylight,

415
00:28:55,279 --> 00:29:00,400
you are repressing us. Removed nonprofit status from cherry that

416
00:29:00,599 --> 00:29:06,720
raise funds for the IDF and end training that the

417
00:29:06,839 --> 00:29:11,839
NYPD does with the IOF. They call it there it's

418
00:29:11,839 --> 00:29:15,599
a derogatory term. Instead of the Israeli Defense Forces. They

419
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:21,960
call it the Israeli offense or sorry, occupation. The Israeli

420
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:26,039
Occupation Forces is what they called the oh and also

421
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:30,680
arrest the Prime Minister of Israel and any active IDF

422
00:29:30,839 --> 00:29:37,319
soldiers for war crimes. Yeah, the UN is in New

423
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:43,200
York City, So you're basically banning Jews, which, oh, you

424
00:29:43,279 --> 00:29:44,599
know what, I just thought of an idea that he

425
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:48,960
could implement when when telling the Jews to get out

426
00:29:49,039 --> 00:29:51,160
and stay out. You know what you could do is

427
00:29:51,279 --> 00:29:54,720
like maybe give them like a gold Star of David

428
00:29:55,319 --> 00:29:57,200
and they would have to like walk around with that

429
00:29:57,319 --> 00:29:59,920
pin to their lapel, so we could all identify them

430
00:30:00,119 --> 00:30:02,759
so easily. What do you think Just send that along

431
00:30:02,799 --> 00:30:07,519
to Mamdanni, He's probably already on it. Actually. Ideas included

432
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:13,119
track active appointments and to pressure Mom Donnie to staff

433
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,400
people whose values are aligned, so they're going to get

434
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:21,680
as many of these radicals into the administration as possible.

435
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:23,200
As a very lengthy piece, I'm just giving you a

436
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:28,440
couple of the highlights. He has repeatedly tweeted about the

437
00:30:28,559 --> 00:30:31,880
need to defund the police, and he has tried to

438
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:34,279
back away from that position after he won the primary,

439
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:39,799
but he's been tweeting it as recently as twenty twenty one,

440
00:30:40,279 --> 00:30:45,400
and he also called to dissolve the nypds SRG as

441
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:50,160
recently as December, so I don't think he's actually moved

442
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:54,640
off of those positions. He also told former MSNBC host

443
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:58,720
medi Asan in December, as mayor, New York City would

444
00:30:58,799 --> 00:31:03,440
arrest Benjamin Ntonyah, who the DSA tweeted in late October.

445
00:31:03,559 --> 00:31:05,680
We believe in our power as workers to control the

446
00:31:05,759 --> 00:31:10,480
means of production and outnumber the capitalist class. Donnie told

447
00:31:10,519 --> 00:31:13,200
reporters in August, my platform is not the same as

448
00:31:13,279 --> 00:31:17,200
national DSA national. When asked if he wanted to eliminate

449
00:31:17,279 --> 00:31:20,359
misdemeanor criminal offenses, he said, no, you can't find that

450
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:27,519
on my platform because it's not there. Yeah, Donnie told

451
00:31:27,519 --> 00:31:30,759
Meet the Press, no, I'm not a communist. However, when

452
00:31:30,759 --> 00:31:33,160
you read all of his tweets and speeches, he does

453
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:36,799
have a strong affinity for traditional Stalin esque communism. He

454
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:39,759
praised and campaigned with a Marxist States senator in New

455
00:31:39,839 --> 00:31:42,119
York declared New York City needs a mayor, just like

456
00:31:42,559 --> 00:31:46,319
the Indian mayor, who's an explicit Marxist and commed party member.

457
00:31:46,559 --> 00:31:49,359
He praised the Russian Revolution, which led to the establishment

458
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:52,880
of the USSR, and wants to seize the means of production.

459
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:57,640
That's a literal quote in a reference to core Marxist principles,

460
00:31:58,279 --> 00:32:03,480
so totally not a commy. All right, that'll do it

461
00:32:03,599 --> 00:32:06,119
for this episode. Thank you so much for listening. I

462
00:32:06,279 --> 00:32:08,319
