WEBVTT 1 00:00:03.439 --> 00:00:08.039 Welcome to the five o'clock show. It's time for common sense. 2 00:00:08.960 --> 00:00:13.359 Now it's Kats and Gosby with John Kassimatids and Rita 3 00:00:13.400 --> 00:00:19.480 Gosby standing for truth, justice and the American Way bringing 4 00:00:19.559 --> 00:00:24.359 common sense to the world. Now here's John Katsimatidis and 5 00:00:24.480 --> 00:00:27.719 Rita Gosby breaking news w ABC. 6 00:00:28.719 --> 00:00:32.920 Well, what's going on with the Pierre de Care text 7 00:00:33.759 --> 00:00:34.719 and the renfreeze. 8 00:00:35.039 --> 00:00:37.399 There's some interesting stuff with the renfreeze case? 9 00:00:38.399 --> 00:00:41.960 Right and uh, right now they're trying to shake it up. 10 00:00:42.079 --> 00:00:44.000 And who's winning, who's losing? 11 00:00:44.039 --> 00:00:48.119 Rita, Well, I think, uh, Staten Island, it's getting moved. 12 00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:53.000 I think, bottom line, yes, because I hate to say it. 13 00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:55.560 The whole process has become so political and that's not 14 00:00:55.679 --> 00:00:58.039 the way it should go. And we've got two very 15 00:00:58.119 --> 00:01:00.439 smart attorneys and well dressed ones by the way, in 16 00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:01.240 the studio with. 17 00:01:02.799 --> 00:01:06.159 Yeah, very well dressed Judge Richard Weinberg, very well dressed 18 00:01:06.159 --> 00:01:10.640 on the phone, have another attorney and an accountant and 19 00:01:10.760 --> 00:01:11.760 the borough president. 20 00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:15.439 We love him, Vito Facella, of course of Staten Island. Vito, 21 00:01:15.480 --> 00:01:19.000 will you fill us in on this big decision? Essentially 22 00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:21.560 what being moved suggested you should be moved out of 23 00:01:21.560 --> 00:01:22.359 Staten Island. 24 00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:24.920 First off, I'm not well dressed. 25 00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:28.200 Well, then we gotta go. I only talk to well 26 00:01:28.879 --> 00:01:31.599 on the radio. I only talk to well dressed men. 27 00:01:31.799 --> 00:01:34.519 Veto I'll take you across the street, I'll got you suited. 28 00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:35.000 Up, no problem. 29 00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:40.079 I can never compete with these judge. So yeah, this 30 00:01:40.239 --> 00:01:42.799 is one of those just it's you know, there's a 31 00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:47.120 challenge as a problem. Uh you know, free groceries, free this, 32 00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:52.760 free that, And unfortunately, long term you're right, Rita, people 33 00:01:52.760 --> 00:01:57.040 are going to lose because the socialist approach to rising 34 00:01:57.079 --> 00:02:00.319 rents is to freeze them. And that's what with the 35 00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:03.719 rent Guidelines Board that froze for the first time ever, 36 00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:08.639 if I'm not mistaken, two year leases as in addition 37 00:02:08.680 --> 00:02:11.400 to one yearlyase, so zero and zero rent increases. And 38 00:02:11.439 --> 00:02:13.360 I know that sounds great if you're paying rent, you 39 00:02:13.360 --> 00:02:16.240 don't want to increases. But long term, if you want 40 00:02:16.280 --> 00:02:18.520 of those owners and need to make improvements to the 41 00:02:18.560 --> 00:02:21.800 house or the apartment, the chance of you doing it 42 00:02:21.840 --> 00:02:25.280 gets less and less over time, and therefore people are 43 00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:28.560 not going to make the investments that they should. And 44 00:02:28.759 --> 00:02:32.000 what happened was a bunch of owners of people who 45 00:02:32.039 --> 00:02:35.520 are going to get part of my expression screwed over 46 00:02:35.599 --> 00:02:36.560 the long haul by. 47 00:02:36.439 --> 00:02:40.240 This we understand that by the way, we understand that, yes, 48 00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:41.400 very important go ahead. 49 00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:44.360 So a case is brought in Staten Island, which I 50 00:02:44.360 --> 00:02:46.840 think has about eight thousand rent stabilized and this only 51 00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:50.240 applies to rent stabilized apartments, is about a million throughout 52 00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:54.080 the city to sizeable represent maybe a two billion people. 53 00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:56.719 It was brought in Staten isl and the judge today 54 00:02:56.960 --> 00:02:59.960 ruled that the venue was not to be Richmond County 55 00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:03.520 but Manhattan because that's where the process and the decision 56 00:03:03.599 --> 00:03:07.960 was made, and the Article seventy eighth that was brought 57 00:03:08.919 --> 00:03:13.360 was still advance. I think the facts still very strong 58 00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:16.840 for the people bringing this case and the law. But 59 00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:20.439 most importantly this folks should get the impression what's happening 60 00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:24.080 once again with the city instead of doing more of 61 00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:27.879 the free market approach to solving problems, is embracing a 62 00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:33.039 socialist model that sounds perhaps attractive on its face, but 63 00:03:33.120 --> 00:03:34.400 long term is a disaster. 64 00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:39.360 So Judge Weinberg, essentially the judge is saying, right, it 65 00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:42.000 should be moved to Manhattan. Now here's I'm just speaking 66 00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:44.879 as a layman I'm not speaking as an attorney. It 67 00:03:44.919 --> 00:03:47.400 sounds to me like that's good news for the Mundani 68 00:03:47.439 --> 00:03:50.360 administration because they'll get a more favorable judge than if 69 00:03:50.360 --> 00:03:52.240 they were in Staten Island. 70 00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:55.840 The assumption on the Mayor's office and Corporation Council is 71 00:03:55.879 --> 00:03:58.919 exactly that they'll have a more favorable judge who will 72 00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:02.400 lean more ideal logically in their direction than in State NA. 73 00:04:02.560 --> 00:04:05.120 That's why they did it, and of the factor of matter, 74 00:04:05.159 --> 00:04:07.960 that's very regrettable that you have to worry about where 75 00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:10.800 case is brought and worry about the disposition of the 76 00:04:10.840 --> 00:04:15.319 case based on a concern about the bias of a judge. 77 00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:18.399 That's a terrible thing to people's faith in judicial system. 78 00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:19.680 I think it's outrageous. 79 00:04:19.959 --> 00:04:20.519 The fact of the. 80 00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:24.319 Matter is Veto is right. Economically, this is a disaster. 81 00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:26.879 You're gonna have less housing, people are going to abandon 82 00:04:26.879 --> 00:04:29.920 their properties. Rent's going to go up, rent controls, rent 83 00:04:29.920 --> 00:04:34.360 regulations never work. A freeze will be a disaster. Buildings 84 00:04:34.399 --> 00:04:37.560 won't be maintained, people will lose housing opportunities. It was 85 00:04:37.560 --> 00:04:39.839 a stupid thing to do, but they did it because 86 00:04:39.839 --> 00:04:44.079 of ideology. Hopefully the judge's assigned to in Manhattan will 87 00:04:44.079 --> 00:04:47.160 have enough frames to understand the economics and the unfairness 88 00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:49.600 and the bias of the decision of the so called 89 00:04:49.600 --> 00:04:53.079 rent Guidelines Board, which was packed by this mayor. It 90 00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:56.360 was a packed decision where they ignored the economic data. 91 00:04:57.560 --> 00:05:00.680 Way, judge, the Guidelines Board is supposed to be independual. 92 00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:04.480 They're supposed to analyze the economic data. And part of 93 00:05:04.519 --> 00:05:08.680 my favorite expression that John has expressed repeatedly and all 94 00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:10.879 of you do is common sense. If you own a 95 00:05:10.879 --> 00:05:14.600 piece of property and you're making ten dollars, but over 96 00:05:14.720 --> 00:05:17.959 time you're losing nine to eight, seven, six, down to one, 97 00:05:18.199 --> 00:05:20.600 at what point do you just walk away. We're saying 98 00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:22.160 I'm going to sell this and get out of town 99 00:05:22.199 --> 00:05:25.319 because I'm actually losing money on the property that I own, 100 00:05:25.720 --> 00:05:27.759 And common sense has a back and forth, and the 101 00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:30.879 Guidelines Board is supposed to assess it independently. But to 102 00:05:30.959 --> 00:05:34.279 your point, Judge, it was a political ram job that 103 00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:38.519 basically said you're out with freezing the rents, and I'm 104 00:05:38.519 --> 00:05:39.920 the messiah. 105 00:05:39.959 --> 00:05:42.480 I think somehow they have to get it into federal court, 106 00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:45.240 and I don't know how because I'm the only non 107 00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:47.560 lawyer here. I'm me and rita ed. 108 00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:50.959 Is there any federal issue that I think the change 109 00:05:51.000 --> 00:05:55.040 to Manhattan and to a more liberal judge is very 110 00:05:55.079 --> 00:05:58.360 important because they'll turn on the facts. Was the rent 111 00:05:58.399 --> 00:06:02.839 board fixed or not? And did they actually consider the 112 00:06:02.879 --> 00:06:04.959 facts of the case or did they just do what. 113 00:06:05.879 --> 00:06:08.879 Then I'll tell you the truth. I think I would 114 00:06:08.920 --> 00:06:13.040 go to the US Attorney and say, you decide if 115 00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:15.759 this this is fixed or not. I think this is 116 00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:21.240 You know, the fact that New York creates their own 117 00:06:21.319 --> 00:06:25.319 law is all a bunch of crap. And I think 118 00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:27.839 that the US Attorney is going to be tough enough. 119 00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:31.079 President Trump he called me this morning. I was on 120 00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:34.360 the phone with him this morning, and he loves New York. 121 00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:38.120 He specifically said that, and he wants a couple of 122 00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:39.959 US New Yorkers to go and have dinner with him 123 00:06:40.240 --> 00:06:42.560 and talk about New York and how we fix it. 124 00:06:43.879 --> 00:06:46.240 The way you fix it is through at this point 125 00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:48.759 in November, elect a Republican. 126 00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:53.199 Yes, but he wants to do what he can do 127 00:06:53.839 --> 00:06:56.560 to make sure that things are good for New York. 128 00:06:57.279 --> 00:07:00.160 Well understood, he loves New York, he loves the or 129 00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:02.360 here right, go ahead, veto Well. 130 00:07:02.360 --> 00:07:05.360 If anybody understands the dynamics and economics of real estate. 131 00:07:05.399 --> 00:07:09.399 It's President Trump as well as John, and you cannot 132 00:07:09.519 --> 00:07:13.000 it's unsustainable to be able to do this. And don't 133 00:07:13.000 --> 00:07:15.240 forget as a part of it is you're a alluding 134 00:07:15.279 --> 00:07:18.199 to this was a campaign promise made last year. We 135 00:07:18.240 --> 00:07:21.399 will freeze your rents. But reality is it's supposed to 136 00:07:21.439 --> 00:07:24.199 be an independent decision by the board. But when you 137 00:07:24.279 --> 00:07:27.160 stack the board with your own appointees and either wink 138 00:07:27.240 --> 00:07:30.079 wink or tell them you see who you've been raised 139 00:07:30.079 --> 00:07:32.079 the rest at all. That's not right. 140 00:07:32.120 --> 00:07:35.519 Okay, last point on this street, Veto. The problem is 141 00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:39.720 you have an administration that's dedicated that personal property, real 142 00:07:39.759 --> 00:07:43.879 property is onerous, it's awful, it's a bad thing. They 143 00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:47.879 want to seize property. They're against private property. If you 144 00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:51.480 understand that, you understand the people who are around Mondami, 145 00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:54.040 that's what they want to do. They want to grab it, 146 00:07:54.120 --> 00:07:55.720 and this is their excuse to grab property. 147 00:07:55.800 --> 00:07:58.279 Yeah, this is it, Veto, thank you so much. Keep 148 00:07:58.360 --> 00:08:00.680 us posted because I'm sure this is far from the 149 00:08:00.720 --> 00:08:05.920 last word on it. Bedo, thank you so much. And John, 150 00:08:05.920 --> 00:08:08.600 I understand we have somebody calling in right now, laras 151 00:08:08.639 --> 00:08:09.959 in why you started. 152 00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:12.959 And joining us now here on Kats and Cosby is 153 00:08:13.240 --> 00:08:16.959 Lara Trump, of course, the great host of My View 154 00:08:16.959 --> 00:08:21.120 with Laura Trump on Saturdays at nine pm on Fox. 155 00:08:21.240 --> 00:08:24.079 John watches the rerun at three o'clock. It still counts 156 00:08:24.120 --> 00:08:27.920 towards the ratings, which we love Laura and Lara. So 157 00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:30.959 this week, I know you haven't nas canter freedom. We're 158 00:08:30.959 --> 00:08:33.639 going to get to that in a moment, But first 159 00:08:34.039 --> 00:08:37.840 in Florida. I can't believe that a DSA, a full 160 00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:42.320 blown DSA radical, is now running for US Senate in 161 00:08:42.399 --> 00:08:44.240 Florida against Ashley Moody. 162 00:08:44.559 --> 00:08:46.840 Yeah, well that tell you really how seriously I think 163 00:08:46.919 --> 00:08:49.799 people need to be taking these midterms, because at one 164 00:08:49.840 --> 00:08:52.080 time we kind of joked about these people. We didn't 165 00:08:52.120 --> 00:08:54.440 take them seriously. We kind of said, well, no one 166 00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:56.840 will ultimately vote for them. And to your point, Hrita, 167 00:08:56.919 --> 00:09:00.840 she is actually running as a Democrat Senate candidate in Florida. 168 00:09:00.879 --> 00:09:02.919 People think of Florida, they think bright red, they think 169 00:09:02.919 --> 00:09:05.399 there's no way this can happen here. But it shows 170 00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:08.320 you that all across the country, these people are picking 171 00:09:08.360 --> 00:09:11.559 up steam and gaining momentum. And it's up to us 172 00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:14.080 as Republicans to shine a light on not only what 173 00:09:14.120 --> 00:09:16.000 they want to do for our country, but I think 174 00:09:16.039 --> 00:09:18.840 we need to be cheerleaders for the accomplishments Republicans have 175 00:09:19.000 --> 00:09:22.279 had in the past several years, especially with Donald Trump 176 00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:24.840 back in the White House. You turn on the TV 177 00:09:24.960 --> 00:09:27.440 every day and you don't get a sense of exactly 178 00:09:27.480 --> 00:09:30.240 what has happened, but whether it's the largest tax cuts 179 00:09:30.240 --> 00:09:33.480 in American history, no tax on tips, overtime social security, 180 00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:37.519 securing our border, bringing manufacturing back, leveling the playing field 181 00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:39.679 when it comes to trade, all of these great things 182 00:09:39.679 --> 00:09:42.679 that have happened for America. We've got to talk about 183 00:09:42.720 --> 00:09:46.399 them because we cannot allow these lunatics to actually make 184 00:09:46.440 --> 00:09:49.360 it to Capitol Hill. Imagine they get a foothold, they 185 00:09:49.360 --> 00:09:52.080 get a majority. It is just going to spell disaster 186 00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:55.360 for the United States. On my show this weekend, as 187 00:09:55.399 --> 00:09:58.679 well as ans cancer freedom, I have who I believe 188 00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:01.240 will be our next governor here the great state of Florida. 189 00:10:01.320 --> 00:10:03.919 I have Byron donald On and he obviously just won 190 00:10:04.639 --> 00:10:07.639 and he will be on the ticket this November for Floridians. 191 00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:10.039 He's got big shoots to fill. Ron De Santis has 192 00:10:10.039 --> 00:10:13.639 done an incredible job as our Florida governor, and he's 193 00:10:13.679 --> 00:10:16.279 got a lot of thoughts about exactly that and why 194 00:10:16.320 --> 00:10:19.320 people in Florida cannot take our great state being read 195 00:10:19.360 --> 00:10:19.879 for granted. 196 00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:23.200 Tell us, you know, we saw what happened in Florida, 197 00:10:23.200 --> 00:10:27.679 and I was told we had a Democrat on and 198 00:10:27.720 --> 00:10:30.120 I asked him what happened in Florida and he says 199 00:10:30.159 --> 00:10:35.480 that the opponent that Nixon had at thirteen million dollars 200 00:10:35.480 --> 00:10:37.440 in the bank and I only spent three or four 201 00:10:37.960 --> 00:10:40.799 looking forward to keeping the rest of the money, and 202 00:10:41.600 --> 00:10:45.480 they screwed up. And that's the reason that the Nixon won. 203 00:10:46.279 --> 00:10:48.519 What do you think, Yeah. 204 00:10:48.279 --> 00:10:50.240 I mean that could be part of it. Look, I 205 00:10:50.279 --> 00:10:53.639 think money really does play a big factor in these races, 206 00:10:53.679 --> 00:10:56.159 and that's why I think. You look at what the 207 00:10:56.279 --> 00:10:58.600 RNC has under their belt right now, what the DNC 208 00:10:58.840 --> 00:11:02.000 has in the bank, and it's completely different. You have 209 00:11:02.080 --> 00:11:04.279 the RNC with about one hundred and thirty million dollars 210 00:11:04.320 --> 00:11:07.759 cash on hand, that's going to be huge. You contrast that, John, 211 00:11:08.080 --> 00:11:10.360 with what the DNC has going on. They just had 212 00:11:10.399 --> 00:11:15.519 to leverage their building in Washington, DC to take out 213 00:11:15.559 --> 00:11:18.639 a fifteen million dollars long there's still three million dollars 214 00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:21.879 in debt right now, they're in dire straits, they're in shambles. 215 00:11:21.879 --> 00:11:25.000 It kind of shows you how the American people feel 216 00:11:25.000 --> 00:11:27.240 when you look at the money that's been donated to 217 00:11:27.320 --> 00:11:30.480 these two different entities. But money does make a difference, 218 00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:33.480 and that's why the audience listening right now. From now 219 00:11:33.559 --> 00:11:35.840 until November, guys, you're going to see all of these 220 00:11:35.879 --> 00:11:40.360 advertisements out there for these candidates locally, you know, in 221 00:11:40.399 --> 00:11:43.600 your state, in your district. Make sure you're supporting the 222 00:11:43.639 --> 00:11:45.799 people you want to see in that way, in the 223 00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:48.440 in the capital, supporting the president in the White House, 224 00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:52.399 because honestly, these things will really matter two years. Donald 225 00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:55.639 Trump has left after this mid term election, and if 226 00:11:55.679 --> 00:11:58.039 you allow these radicals to take over, if you allow 227 00:11:58.080 --> 00:12:01.080 the Democrats to become them, we know they're just going 228 00:12:01.120 --> 00:12:03.080 to go after the president. It's going to be impeachment 229 00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:04.360 nonsense and all of it. 230 00:12:04.879 --> 00:12:08.240 So, Laura, the most important thing you said that the 231 00:12:08.320 --> 00:12:13.759 American people are starting to get the pulse that the 232 00:12:13.840 --> 00:12:15.200 Democrats have lost their mind. 233 00:12:15.639 --> 00:12:18.440 Well, that's exactly right. I mean, you can't spend it 234 00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:19.039 any other way. 235 00:12:19.080 --> 00:12:20.639 That's the reality of the situation. 236 00:12:21.080 --> 00:12:23.159 And I think we need to be sure we highlight 237 00:12:23.240 --> 00:12:25.600 that I think, you know the problem is that it's 238 00:12:25.639 --> 00:12:28.639 easy to write these people off as just being totally crazy. 239 00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:31.480 But then when they start winning these primaries and they 240 00:12:31.480 --> 00:12:34.080 are actually on the ticket this November, this is when 241 00:12:34.120 --> 00:12:37.440 we have to take it seriously. But the Democrats really 242 00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:41.600 backed themselves in this corner because they allowed the momentum 243 00:12:41.639 --> 00:12:44.200 to completely slip away from themselves. They put all their 244 00:12:44.240 --> 00:12:47.000 eggs and they hate Donald Trump and anti Donald Trump basket. 245 00:12:47.200 --> 00:12:49.320 They had Joe Biden as the leader of their party 246 00:12:49.360 --> 00:12:51.679 for four years who was a completely empty suit and 247 00:12:51.720 --> 00:12:56.360 did absolutely nothing, and they allowed for these socialists to 248 00:12:56.480 --> 00:12:59.240 basically slip in the back door and take things over, 249 00:12:59.759 --> 00:13:02.679 and now they're in a situation where it seems like 250 00:13:02.679 --> 00:13:05.679 their party is split to a certain extent. The bottom 251 00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:08.039 line here for the American people is whether we're talking 252 00:13:08.039 --> 00:13:10.919 about the moderate Democrats or whether we're talking about these 253 00:13:10.960 --> 00:13:14.000 socialists that are trying to take over, neither of those 254 00:13:14.000 --> 00:13:16.799 two groups are going to do what the American people want. 255 00:13:17.080 --> 00:13:19.720 The only group that actually will will be the Republicans 256 00:13:19.759 --> 00:13:20.639 come this November. 257 00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:23.440 And Laura, one of the things, as while as we're 258 00:13:23.480 --> 00:13:27.759 talking about this Florida race, this woman Angie Nixon actually 259 00:13:27.840 --> 00:13:29.840 came out and say I played it on my show 260 00:13:30.159 --> 00:13:32.799 where she came out and she said that it's told 261 00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:36.720 some fun to take her kids to drag shows. I 262 00:13:36.720 --> 00:13:39.559 don't know how older her kids are, if they're kindergarten 263 00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:42.440 or high school, but to me to take your kids 264 00:13:42.480 --> 00:13:45.600 and it's okay to take your kids to drag shows. 265 00:13:45.720 --> 00:13:49.320 That leads in perfectly because you I love this A 266 00:13:49.440 --> 00:13:53.480 nas Cantor Freedom, who of course made huge headlines when 267 00:13:53.480 --> 00:13:57.039 he said he's to try out forthy WNBA. He's of 268 00:13:57.080 --> 00:14:01.720 course an NBA star. Talk about this sort of this 269 00:14:01.840 --> 00:14:04.960 whole craziness. If you go to the public, the American 270 00:14:05.039 --> 00:14:10.600 public overwhelmingly says no, there shouldn't be guys in girls' sports. 271 00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:14.559 So talk about this weekend and also this craziness of 272 00:14:14.639 --> 00:14:15.679 the DSA. 273 00:14:15.759 --> 00:14:17.480 Well, first of all, I mean, we have to protect 274 00:14:17.480 --> 00:14:20.440 our kids first and foremost, and kids grow up fast 275 00:14:20.519 --> 00:14:23.120 en us as it is. To infuse all of this 276 00:14:23.240 --> 00:14:27.080 sort of gender theory and all the crazy nonsense in 277 00:14:27.480 --> 00:14:31.440 school curriculums, and then to expose them to drag shows 278 00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:33.639 and all of this stuff. It's just that kids should 279 00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:36.120 never be exposed to these things. It's why you know, 280 00:14:36.200 --> 00:14:38.399 here in Florida, one of the things Byron Donald talks 281 00:14:38.399 --> 00:14:40.919 about is ensuring that the parents are in charge of 282 00:14:40.960 --> 00:14:44.360 their child's education. It couldn't be more important than in 283 00:14:44.399 --> 00:14:47.159 a moment like right now. But to your point about 284 00:14:47.240 --> 00:14:50.240 and that's in what he's doing, we have seen just 285 00:14:50.320 --> 00:14:53.200 how crazy things have gotten. The common sense has completely 286 00:14:53.279 --> 00:14:56.399 left the picture when it comes to the left, because 287 00:14:56.879 --> 00:14:59.879 you have within the rules of the WNBA a very 288 00:15:00.039 --> 00:15:03.200 specific statement that says only women are allowed to participate 289 00:15:03.279 --> 00:15:06.279 and be players in the WNBA. They fail, though, guys, 290 00:15:06.320 --> 00:15:08.600 to define what a woman is. Where have we heard 291 00:15:08.600 --> 00:15:11.320 that before? One of our Supreme Court justices can't even 292 00:15:11.320 --> 00:15:13.879 do it. And so because of that, they left this 293 00:15:14.039 --> 00:15:17.360 window open to allow, as you just said, Rita, men 294 00:15:17.440 --> 00:15:21.720 to compete against women in these WNBA games. And because 295 00:15:21.720 --> 00:15:24.639 it has become such a hot button topic, and that said, 296 00:15:24.679 --> 00:15:27.720 you know what, just to prove what would happen if 297 00:15:27.799 --> 00:15:30.759 men were allowed to compete in this sport, I will 298 00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:34.360 put myself forward as a WNBA draft pick in twenty 299 00:15:34.399 --> 00:15:37.279 twenty seven. So I sat down with him yesterday. It's 300 00:15:37.279 --> 00:15:39.519 going to be on the show Saturday night. We talk 301 00:15:39.559 --> 00:15:41.879 about all of it. The people he's also talked to 302 00:15:41.960 --> 00:15:45.039 who are former professional basketball players who want to join 303 00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:48.519 him in this pursuit. His message to the WNBA, and 304 00:15:48.559 --> 00:15:50.519 then he and I may or may not have played 305 00:15:50.559 --> 00:15:52.600 a little game of one on one, and I'll let 306 00:15:52.679 --> 00:15:56.360 you decide who is the triumphant person on the other side. 307 00:15:56.519 --> 00:16:01.120 Well, thank you so much for calling in, miss Friday. Friday. 308 00:16:01.360 --> 00:16:03.360 But you know what I looked forward to Friday. I 309 00:16:03.399 --> 00:16:05.960 get to listen to you and see you and talk 310 00:16:06.000 --> 00:16:07.360 to you on Saturday too. 311 00:16:07.799 --> 00:16:11.200 All right, welky everybody there Tomorrow night, nine pm. Fox News. 312 00:16:11.200 --> 00:16:12.639 Thank you, guys, thank you. 313 00:16:12.679 --> 00:16:12.960 Thank you. 314 00:16:13.000 --> 00:16:15.080 We're going to check out your dribble, Laura. We're going 315 00:16:15.159 --> 00:16:15.799 to check it out. 316 00:16:16.519 --> 00:16:24.200 Okay, I've news WABC and a big Supreme Court decision 317 00:16:24.440 --> 00:16:28.120 in favor of President Trump about the White House Ballroom. 318 00:16:29.399 --> 00:16:31.879 So let's see where this is going. It sounds like 319 00:16:31.919 --> 00:16:35.159 he can continue construction. I just saw today that it's 320 00:16:35.200 --> 00:16:37.840 about sixty five percent done, and that includes some stuff 321 00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:41.279 on the bottom two of course beneath it. So let's 322 00:16:41.279 --> 00:16:45.360 go who better than Professor Alan Dershwitz. Professor Dershowitz, your 323 00:16:45.360 --> 00:16:48.159 reaction to the Supreme Court decision and what does this 324 00:16:48.240 --> 00:16:49.519 mean good news, right. 325 00:16:50.120 --> 00:16:51.960 Yeah, but before we get there, I want to be 326 00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:54.399 included in that one on one basketball game. 327 00:16:54.679 --> 00:16:54.840 You know. 328 00:16:54.919 --> 00:16:57.879 I played in Madison Square Garden. I guarded a kid 329 00:16:57.960 --> 00:17:02.440 named Ralphy Lipshitz. He changes name to Ralph Lauren, by 330 00:17:02.480 --> 00:17:02.720 the way. 331 00:17:02.759 --> 00:17:04.559 I don't blame him for changing the name. 332 00:17:05.720 --> 00:17:09.839 Well, but I played so I had a pretty good 333 00:17:09.920 --> 00:17:12.480 jump shot from the corner. And when I was eighty 334 00:17:12.480 --> 00:17:14.359 five years old, I'm going to be eighty eight next week. 335 00:17:14.400 --> 00:17:18.359 When I was eighty five, I played against my varsity athlete, 336 00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:19.960 grandson Horse. 337 00:17:20.160 --> 00:17:21.039 And I beat him. 338 00:17:21.839 --> 00:17:24.240 Wait wait, wait, wait, we need an apply. 339 00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:25.559 Beat off the ground. 340 00:17:25.240 --> 00:17:28.240 And professor, professor, hold on. It doesn't matter how many 341 00:17:28.240 --> 00:17:30.799 decades did as ago. Here's here's you, here's to you 342 00:17:31.839 --> 00:17:36.000 years ago. Bravo, bravo. 343 00:17:36.640 --> 00:17:39.039 I wasn't as good as I remember being, but I 344 00:17:39.119 --> 00:17:41.759 was a pretty good basketball player in any event. This 345 00:17:41.839 --> 00:17:44.400 Supreme Court case, of course, when you have the Chief 346 00:17:44.559 --> 00:17:48.000 Justice issuing an order like this, it's most likely that 347 00:17:48.079 --> 00:17:51.880 he circulated it to the justices before he issued it, 348 00:17:52.160 --> 00:17:54.559 and probably he has a majority on his side. Look 349 00:17:54.839 --> 00:17:58.519 of all the dumb things that courts have done, because 350 00:17:58.559 --> 00:18:02.400 so many judges are afflicted with TDS Trump Derangement syndrome. 351 00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:05.240 Of all the dumb things that they've done, this has 352 00:18:05.279 --> 00:18:08.640 to be the dumbest to try to hold up the building. 353 00:18:09.160 --> 00:18:12.319 To keep a hole the size of you know, half 354 00:18:12.400 --> 00:18:14.960 of our cities, keep a hole in the ground, course 355 00:18:15.039 --> 00:18:19.680 in the taxpayer's money, causing even considerably greater damage, is 356 00:18:19.720 --> 00:18:22.200 the dumbest thing any court has ever done. And I 357 00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:26.720 think the Supreme Court will, I hope, unanimously say to 358 00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:31.480 the judicial, to the judges, you're supposed to be the 359 00:18:31.559 --> 00:18:35.039 leaf dangerous brands, the leaf activist branch. You're not supposed 360 00:18:35.079 --> 00:18:38.359 to interfere with presidents who want to make the White 361 00:18:38.400 --> 00:18:43.319 House the most beautiful capital building for a president in 362 00:18:43.359 --> 00:18:46.480 the world. President Trump is entitled to do that, just 363 00:18:46.519 --> 00:18:50.279 like President Truman was entitled, President Jefferson was entitled. All 364 00:18:50.359 --> 00:18:54.279 these presidents, many presidents, expanded the White House, change the 365 00:18:54.319 --> 00:18:58.119 White House, added things, you know, and the idea that 366 00:18:58.160 --> 00:19:02.039 a court has nothing better to do than to issue 367 00:19:02.039 --> 00:19:04.720 an injunction to keep a hole in the ground. By 368 00:19:04.720 --> 00:19:08.480 the way, the case was brought months after the the 369 00:19:09.039 --> 00:19:12.440 building began, and and and it was far too late. 370 00:19:12.799 --> 00:19:16.160 So of course the Supreme Court will do the right 371 00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:20.160 thing here and not stop the president from doing what 372 00:19:20.240 --> 00:19:24.200 he's perfectly entitled to do under the Constitution. That has 373 00:19:24.559 --> 00:19:29.079 served the executive function by building the executive mansion for 374 00:19:29.279 --> 00:19:31.599 not only himself but for future president. 375 00:19:31.440 --> 00:19:35.559 And making it safer than any of those other hotels. 376 00:19:35.680 --> 00:19:39.480 Yeah, not only that, but having you know, possibly a 377 00:19:39.559 --> 00:19:42.880 helicopter port on the top, and all the things that 378 00:19:43.039 --> 00:19:46.119 presidents have done. You know, I've been in the White House, 379 00:19:46.200 --> 00:19:49.000 I don't know a hundred times since I first went 380 00:19:49.039 --> 00:19:52.519 there as a kid. It's beautiful, but you know, it 381 00:19:52.640 --> 00:19:55.319 reflects the fact that it was built two hundred something 382 00:19:56.000 --> 00:20:00.000 years ago and it can't just keep up without change, 383 00:20:00.319 --> 00:20:04.039 is without additions. So I hope the Supreme Court unanimously 384 00:20:04.200 --> 00:20:07.720 sends a message to the lower courts stay in your lane, 385 00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:11.599 Stay in your lane. Even Justice Ginsburg once through an 386 00:20:11.599 --> 00:20:16.160 opinion saying, we are not just commissioners assigned to do justice. 387 00:20:16.200 --> 00:20:20.839 We have a very limited role to decide cases and controversies. 388 00:20:21.039 --> 00:20:23.960 The government wants to put somebody in jail, the person says, no, 389 00:20:24.039 --> 00:20:26.160 I have a lawyer. That's the kind of case you take. 390 00:20:26.359 --> 00:20:28.759 Two people are sewing each other on a contract. That's 391 00:20:28.799 --> 00:20:30.640 the kind of case you take for you don't take 392 00:20:30.720 --> 00:20:33.839 cases trying to stop the president of the United States 393 00:20:34.000 --> 00:20:36.720 from filling a hole that already exists by the time 394 00:20:36.759 --> 00:20:37.640 you brought the lawsuit. 395 00:20:38.880 --> 00:20:42.880 Professor, you said, just one of the dumbest cases that 396 00:20:43.440 --> 00:20:47.000 was ever held up. What are the similar cases to that? 397 00:20:47.119 --> 00:20:49.640 Are there? How many other dumb cases out there? 398 00:20:50.440 --> 00:20:51.200 There are a lot. 399 00:20:51.400 --> 00:20:54.039 I mean, trying to stop the president from who he 400 00:20:54.079 --> 00:20:57.920 can hire and fire. You know, courts have a limited 401 00:20:57.960 --> 00:21:02.319
