WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.280 --> 00:00:05.480 Uh, Sid and Friends in the Morning, entertaining and informative 2 00:00:05.599 --> 00:00:07.679 on the Red Apple podcast Network. 3 00:00:09.679 --> 00:00:12.560 In the case of Sid, you know, Sid is an 4 00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:16.199 entertainer first and foremost, but he's developed such a massive 5 00:00:16.239 --> 00:00:20.960 audience that he's been able to become this political power broker, 6 00:00:21.679 --> 00:00:24.160 the likes of which I don't think anyone ever anticipated. 7 00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:27.399 And because there's not really a morning show at least 8 00:00:27.399 --> 00:00:30.879 on AM that has his kind of listenership and his 9 00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:34.320 kind of depth, he has the kind of influence politically 10 00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:37.359 that I don't even know if Bob Grant had. 11 00:00:37.479 --> 00:00:40.159 Believe the NYPD when they put forward their numbers, what 12 00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:42.799 we're seeing are some of the lowest numbers that New 13 00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:44.960 York City has seen in recorded history, especially when it 14 00:00:44.960 --> 00:00:47.399 comes to murders and shootings. He's the lowest we've ever seen. 15 00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:49.920 And what I think is important to know is a 16 00:00:49.960 --> 00:00:52.359 lot of the increase in rape also comes from an 17 00:00:52.359 --> 00:00:55.439 expanded definition of what counts as rape, as well as 18 00:00:55.679 --> 00:00:59.920 survivors coming forward for acts that took place years prior. 19 00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:02.759 Oh my god, he's the host of Life Liberty Levin. 20 00:01:02.920 --> 00:01:04.560 I call him the great one, Mark Levin. 21 00:01:05.680 --> 00:01:07.760 I just want to add one thing to what Lucas 22 00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:10.680 was saying, you know what, I do believe there is 23 00:01:10.719 --> 00:01:14.200 a group that Steve Wikoff and Jared and others are 24 00:01:14.280 --> 00:01:17.640 talking to. The problem is is you got the hardliners 25 00:01:18.079 --> 00:01:23.359 and the former loyalists to the old regime. I think 26 00:01:23.400 --> 00:01:26.400 it might be time for them to say goodbye. Now, 27 00:01:26.599 --> 00:01:28.719 I know we're not allowed to do that, but you 28 00:01:28.760 --> 00:01:31.400 know what other countries are, and I think that it 29 00:01:31.480 --> 00:01:32.359 might be time for that. 30 00:01:32.640 --> 00:01:33.920 But I'd love your thoughts, Mark. 31 00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:36.560 My thoughts haven't changed for months. Pound the hell out 32 00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:41.920 of them until you pound them into submission. No more negotiations. 33 00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:45.680 It's our way or the highway. That's the way it works. 34 00:01:46.359 --> 00:01:50.760 Use all available options, including arming the Iranian people. That's 35 00:01:50.799 --> 00:01:56.480 my view. And as for Lindsay Graham, Lindsay Graham was 36 00:01:56.519 --> 00:02:01.239 a remarkable statesman, a remarkable leader. He had one hundred senators. 37 00:02:01.280 --> 00:02:04.400 He was a standout among a hundred. And why was 38 00:02:04.439 --> 00:02:08.120 he a standout? He was funny, he had a great personality, 39 00:02:08.120 --> 00:02:12.360 and all that is true. He was a character. But 40 00:02:12.439 --> 00:02:16.159 he was a principled man. And I resent when people 41 00:02:16.240 --> 00:02:20.000 call him a warmonger. What's a warmonger? This is a 42 00:02:20.039 --> 00:02:22.599 man who saw our allies under attack, and he came 43 00:02:22.639 --> 00:02:26.199 to the defense of our allies. He saw innocent people 44 00:02:26.280 --> 00:02:29.000 who wanted liberation, and he came to the defense of 45 00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:33.039 innocent people who wanted liberation. That's why he is loved 46 00:02:33.080 --> 00:02:35.960 by the Persian people. He is loved by the Israeli people, 47 00:02:36.039 --> 00:02:39.000 he is loved by the Ukrainian people, and he's loved 48 00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:43.680 by the Taiwanese people. Because all those countries have had 49 00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:49.120 to deal with tyrants, fascist, communists, Islamists, one evil after another, 50 00:02:49.919 --> 00:02:52.400 and Lindsay wasn't afraid to speak out on their behalf. 51 00:02:52.479 --> 00:02:54.879 He wasn't afraid to travel all over the world, over 52 00:02:54.919 --> 00:02:58.319 and over and over again to meet their leaders. And 53 00:02:58.400 --> 00:03:00.840 so he was a unique man. And he and I 54 00:03:00.879 --> 00:03:04.520 agreed on a lot, not everything, but almost everything. 55 00:03:05.680 --> 00:03:08.560 For three days, I've been talking to Palestinians in their 56 00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:13.240 homes and villages about the daily injustices they face under occupation. 57 00:03:14.240 --> 00:03:16.479 The blood you see, the bloods do that? 58 00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:19.960 Oh my gosh. As a congressman, I never expected to 59 00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:23.719 be the target of settler violence. Ly, when we visited 60 00:03:23.759 --> 00:03:27.080 a school in Zenudah village that settlers had burned down, 61 00:03:27.520 --> 00:03:31.639 we were detained by settlers wielding M four guns who 62 00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:34.960 blocked our van from leaving the site. Lion, they called 63 00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:38.759 additional settlers for support. Lyon held us captive for seventy 64 00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:43.520 five minutes, recording videos laughing at us, Lion, mocking me 65 00:03:43.639 --> 00:03:44.360 and my staff. 66 00:03:44.439 --> 00:03:46.560 I would never forget their faces, Lion. 67 00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:50.280 What angered me most is that the IDF soldiers who 68 00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:55.520 came to the scene supported the violent settlersly for American citizens, Liar, 69 00:03:56.080 --> 00:03:59.800 here's the question. If the settlers and IDF could do 70 00:03:59.840 --> 00:04:04.360 this to an American congressman, imagine what life is like 71 00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:09.919 for an ordinary Palestinian under Israel's occupation. Sure, I've never 72 00:04:10.039 --> 00:04:11.520 felt more powerless in my. 73 00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:12.520 Whole life, Lion. 74 00:04:12.919 --> 00:04:16.399 For decades, American politicians have made the track to Tel 75 00:04:16.439 --> 00:04:18.920 Aviv while not taking the time. 76 00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:20.480 To cross over and hear from. 77 00:04:20.399 --> 00:04:23.560 Palestinians about the actual facts on the ground. 78 00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:27.839 Lion, speak that word for Palestinian and it's like. 79 00:04:29.319 --> 00:04:31.079 She was a sleeper and animal. 80 00:04:31.160 --> 00:04:33.560 You are most killed. The Palastinian animals. 81 00:04:33.480 --> 00:04:37.439 Are keep We never forgot him, We keep thinking about him. 82 00:04:37.639 --> 00:04:45.839 His room still still, his room is still likely he left. 83 00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:49.639 Many Palestinians are desperate to be seen, to be heard, 84 00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:51.839 and to live with dignantity. 85 00:04:51.959 --> 00:04:54.680 Sometime in the social media say that's not that's violence 86 00:04:54.839 --> 00:04:58.639 because what happened from October. No, my ankle helps to 87 00:04:58.720 --> 00:05:00.360 remain father of it killed. 88 00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:03.639 I have met many of European Parliament members, but this 89 00:05:03.759 --> 00:05:05.600 is the first time that I do it for an 90 00:05:05.639 --> 00:05:06.439 American member. 91 00:05:06.639 --> 00:05:10.720 It's really the first time Congressman that comes to Witsaho. 92 00:05:10.959 --> 00:05:14.360 I'll be posting their stories throughout the next few weeks. Sure, 93 00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:18.480 because it is time that Palestinians have full equal rights 94 00:05:18.959 --> 00:05:19.399 in their. 95 00:05:19.240 --> 00:05:25.319 Own without without since the Congressman should come and see 96 00:05:25.439 --> 00:05:28.360 the basic free stuff that we want. 97 00:05:28.439 --> 00:05:31.759 We want our land, we want water, and we want 98 00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:32.879 the freedom of movement. 99 00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:34.879 They want to kill you in the land. 100 00:05:35.120 --> 00:05:40.959 Water, freedom of movement is as simple as thank you, 101 00:05:41.000 --> 00:05:41.319 thank you. 102 00:05:41.920 --> 00:05:44.920 I kind of said, the only reason our lives were 103 00:05:45.120 --> 00:05:48.560 saved is because of the excellent work of the American embassy. 104 00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:51.600 You think Rocana was going to be killed by the 105 00:05:51.639 --> 00:05:52.120 id F. 106 00:05:52.600 --> 00:05:57.279 That's that's absurd, it's ridiculous. And here are some facts 107 00:05:57.319 --> 00:06:00.519 that maybe Rocanna doesn't want us to tell you. First 108 00:06:00.519 --> 00:06:03.040 of all, he did not let us know he was coming. 109 00:06:03.399 --> 00:06:05.480 Most of the time a member of Congress, if they're 110 00:06:05.519 --> 00:06:08.920 coming to the country, they coordinate with us. They let 111 00:06:09.040 --> 00:06:11.879 us know they're coming, we make sure that there is security. 112 00:06:12.199 --> 00:06:15.639 He didn't want our assistance because he came at the 113 00:06:15.680 --> 00:06:20.759 invitation and under the guide of this very pro Palestinian 114 00:06:20.879 --> 00:06:24.920 activist who is known for regularly trying to take people 115 00:06:25.040 --> 00:06:30.800 into provocative situations in Judea and Samaria, in this case 116 00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:33.480 an area see which is Israeli controlled. A lot of 117 00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:36.800 people don't understand that. So he goes to a place 118 00:06:36.800 --> 00:06:41.879 that is a CMZ, which means a civilian military zone. 119 00:06:42.639 --> 00:06:46.000 It is forbidden for people to just show up. It's 120 00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:49.000 like I can't go to a US air base just 121 00:06:49.079 --> 00:06:51.519 walk in and say, hey, I'd like to look around. 122 00:06:51.920 --> 00:06:55.199 I can't go to Rocana's office in Washington and just 123 00:06:55.279 --> 00:06:57.720 pop in and say I'd like to just, you know, 124 00:06:57.879 --> 00:06:59.600 nose around. 125 00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:03.480 Is foullowing a lawsuit ledging a conspiracy to suppress critics 126 00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:07.160 of Israel. Khalil's civil rights lawsuits against the federal government 127 00:07:07.160 --> 00:07:10.839 and several private groups. He gained attention as a spokesperson 128 00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:14.199 and leader for student activists protesting against Israel and its 129 00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:17.959 actions in Gaza.

Not only is 173 00:09:42.240 --> 00:09:45.519 this decision inhumane and inconsiderate to the families who have 174 00:09:45.559 --> 00:09:49.519 already integrated into the Sheeps of Bay community. This decision 175 00:09:49.679 --> 00:09:54.559 will have devastating and profound impacts on our neighborhood. The 176 00:09:54.759 --> 00:09:58.159 males moving in are not going to be vetted, which 177 00:09:58.279 --> 00:10:02.360 means we could have We could have sex offenders across 178 00:10:02.440 --> 00:10:06.240 the street from lou Fiddler Park, where children often visit 179 00:10:06.559 --> 00:10:11.039 a playground. Further, the provider for the shelter is Brags Brags. 180 00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:14.799 Senior executives are under a federal indictment for fraud and bribery, 181 00:10:14.879 --> 00:10:17.360 and yet Mam Donnie still gave them a two hundred 182 00:10:17.480 --> 00:10:22.200 million dollar contract including this location. I'm Donnie could not 183 00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:24.799 care less about these families. Mam Donnie could not care 184 00:10:24.879 --> 00:10:27.960 less about our neighborhoods and our quality of life. And 185 00:10:28.080 --> 00:10:30.639 I have to wonder if this is a deliberate attempt 186 00:10:30.960 --> 00:10:34.399 to punish those neighborhoods who did not vote for him 187 00:10:34.440 --> 00:10:38.039 and who do not support this administration. I am currently 188 00:10:38.120 --> 00:10:40.080 working around the clock to do everything. 189 00:10:39.799 --> 00:10:42.080 I can to try and prevent this from happening. 190 00:10:42.399 --> 00:10:45.000 I'm in touch with the local elected official, the Assemblyman, 191 00:10:45.039 --> 00:10:48.120 Common Yeger, the Senator Samsa, and we're working together.

We are 195 00:10:53.840 --> 00:10:57.120 working different angles. We're thinking of legal avenues to stop it, 196 00:10:57.559 --> 00:11:00.279 and I will keep you posted on every single step 197 00:11:00.399 --> 00:11:01.759 of away. Thank you so much. 198 00:11:01.960 --> 00:11:05.639 That was Ina Wernikov, and she wasn't crying. She's actually 199 00:11:06.240 --> 00:11:09.360 one thousand percent right. I love Na I do. She's 200 00:11:09.440 --> 00:11:14.200 one of the five Republican city council members, five out 201 00:11:14.240 --> 00:11:17.320 of fifty one. We've been over this a million times. 202 00:11:17.720 --> 00:11:21.759 We did have another Republican council member, Vicki Palladino, on 203 00:11:21.879 --> 00:11:24.399 the show yesterday, and we're all going to have Frank 204 00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:26.559 Marno back on the show today. The other two happened 205 00:11:26.600 --> 00:11:30.600 to be David Carr out of Staten Island and Joanne 206 00:11:30.720 --> 00:11:34.639 Ariola out of my neighborhood. She's my counsel lady. In fact, 207 00:11:34.960 --> 00:11:38.559 the girl, the lady that is the campaign. I guess 208 00:11:38.679 --> 00:11:42.279 cheap of staff is what she is for. Joanne Ariola 209 00:11:42.720 --> 00:11:46.120 Phyllis in Sorillo. She's going to be on the show today. 210 00:11:46.120 --> 00:11:50.360 You remember knowing you played yesterday the lady. The quotes 211 00:11:50.399 --> 00:11:53.559 from the lady who was very upset about people stealing 212 00:11:54.039 --> 00:11:57.559 religious statues off the lawn in Howard Beach that happened 213 00:11:57.559 --> 00:12:00.080 to be Phyllis. Remember I thought it was Joanne. I 214 00:12:00.120 --> 00:12:02.960 asked you that question, right, that was Phyllis. She'll join 215 00:12:03.080 --> 00:12:07.360 us today, so Ino one of just five Republican Council members, 216 00:12:07.919 --> 00:12:12.200 and she's fantastic. She's got a huge future. Maybe Ena 217 00:12:12.360 --> 00:12:16.879 runs against AOC for that Senate seat that I believe 218 00:12:16.960 --> 00:12:19.519 Chuck Schuml will a Kate, you ain't gonna run again. 219 00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:21.360 Maybe she run for something else. 220 00:12:21.399 --> 00:12:21.840 I don't know. 221 00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:25.799 I do think that our Republican people in the Council, 222 00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:29.919 all of them have so much talent. Acts out of Joanne. 223 00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:35.440 Joanne's actually leaving, she's timed out. But the other four Morono, Carr, Palladino, 224 00:12:36.159 --> 00:12:39.879 and Vernikov, I see big things for them, big things 225 00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:42.679 in the political futures. And I do think Ena is 226 00:12:42.759 --> 00:12:46.080 one of them. And she was complaining in that video, 227 00:12:46.159 --> 00:12:51.759 and she's right about this shelter that I guess they're 228 00:12:51.840 --> 00:12:55.519 building or about to use in my old neighborhood. She said, 229 00:12:55.559 --> 00:12:59.200 Baby Brooklyn Emmons Avenue, the home of Captain Walters and 230 00:13:00.399 --> 00:13:03.120 all those great places, and sheep said bay, and they're 231 00:13:03.159 --> 00:13:08.159 about to store all these unvetted single mails, many of 232 00:13:08.240 --> 00:13:13.720 which may have who knows what sex offenses, murder, rape, 233 00:13:13.720 --> 00:13:16.639 who knows they're not going to be vetted? And Ina, 234 00:13:17.200 --> 00:13:20.519 as the counsel lady for that district, standing up with 235 00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:23.879 the great people of Sheep said, Bay is upset and furious, 236 00:13:24.519 --> 00:13:27.360 and she's right, and she goes out to point out 237 00:13:27.440 --> 00:13:30.200 that I guess the company that's in charge of this 238 00:13:31.320 --> 00:13:35.639 somehow got a couple one hundred million from the mayor Mamdani, 239 00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:41.279 even though that specific company is being investigated. So you 240 00:13:41.440 --> 00:13:44.759 explained to me, noaem, how the mayor is okay giving 241 00:13:45.399 --> 00:13:48.679 hundreds of millions of dollars to a company I guess 242 00:13:48.759 --> 00:13:53.320 that's under fraud investigation. Who's going to make possibly make 243 00:13:53.440 --> 00:13:57.480 I should say this shelter in Sheep said, Bay actually happen. 244 00:13:57.799 --> 00:13:58.639 How does the mayor do that? 245 00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:01.120 Well, there's a lot of questions here with this shelter. 246 00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:03.720 I mean, initially they had told people in the neighborhood 247 00:14:03.759 --> 00:14:06.000 that might be families and it's not even clear who 248 00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:07.759 one hundred percent who's in there now, but they'd have 249 00:14:07.840 --> 00:14:10.799 to move them out for these men. And like you said, yeah, 250 00:14:11.039 --> 00:14:13.799 we don't even know what these crimes are, what crimes 251 00:14:13.840 --> 00:14:15.960 they may have committed, these unvetted men. We don't know 252 00:14:16.000 --> 00:14:17.679 anything about them, and you're going to move them into 253 00:14:17.679 --> 00:14:21.039 a neighborhood where they'd be right across the street from 254 00:14:21.240 --> 00:14:23.799 a park. So none of it makes sense. 255 00:14:24.720 --> 00:14:27.240 It really doesn't. Lou Fittler Park, I think is a 256 00:14:27.799 --> 00:14:30.480 park that's right, and little kids play in that park 257 00:14:30.559 --> 00:14:32.759 all the time. So I'm think, you know, verner Kov 258 00:14:32.879 --> 00:14:34.519 is doing a very very good job there. But the 259 00:14:34.639 --> 00:14:36.759 mayor he's going to come on the fire again on 260 00:14:36.879 --> 00:14:40.399 this show today. So obviously, if you think Mayor Mom 261 00:14:40.480 --> 00:14:42.360 Donnie is doing a good job and you like him, 262 00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:45.120 you should be put in prison. But if you do, 263 00:14:45.399 --> 00:14:47.960 you're not going to like this show on any day, 264 00:14:48.720 --> 00:14:52.480 but specifically this day, you ain't gonna like it because 265 00:14:52.960 --> 00:14:55.399 you got werner Kov out there pushing back against the 266 00:14:55.480 --> 00:14:59.919 mayor who wants to put potential criminals in Sheep said, Bay, 267 00:15:00.679 --> 00:15:04.799 you've got both Julie Menin and Frank Morano pushing back 268 00:15:04.879 --> 00:15:08.519 against the mayor with his definition of rape. You heard that, 269 00:15:08.600 --> 00:15:13.000 gnome right, that was and that's nuts. That is nuts. 270 00:15:14.279 --> 00:15:20.759 How my god, how insensitive is this mayor that he 271 00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:26.519 has redefined rape to make it okay for him? Clearly 272 00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:29.799 not caring even a little about the victims, just so 273 00:15:29.960 --> 00:15:33.679 as crime numbers could be good. How to hear time 274 00:15:33.759 --> 00:15:36.960 and time again that shootings or at an all time low, 275 00:15:37.720 --> 00:15:40.600 murderers at an all time low. The city has never 276 00:15:40.720 --> 00:15:43.840 been safer. If you really believe, and this is no 277 00:15:44.000 --> 00:15:47.559 shot at my dear friend, Jessica Tish. If you really 278 00:15:47.679 --> 00:15:52.720 believe that this city has never been safer, you're somewhere 279 00:15:52.799 --> 00:15:56.360 between naive and stupid and closer to the ladder. This 280 00:15:56.480 --> 00:16:01.399 city's not safe. Shootings aren't down, murders are down, but 281 00:16:01.679 --> 00:16:05.000 every other major crime is up. And last I checked, 282 00:16:05.639 --> 00:16:08.240 married to a beautiful woman and the father of a 283 00:16:08.320 --> 00:16:12.440 beautiful young daughter. Rape is kind of a serious crime, 284 00:16:12.559 --> 00:16:14.200 wouldn't you agree on Yeah? 285 00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:17.720 And then with the mayor trying to redefine what constitutes 286 00:16:17.799 --> 00:16:20.799 a sexual assault was really hard to watch. 287 00:16:20.919 --> 00:16:22.440 I was like, you gotta be kidding me. 288 00:16:22.639 --> 00:16:25.559 He wasn't kidding you. And that's how he feels. He 289 00:16:25.639 --> 00:16:28.799 doesn't care about the victims. All he cares about is 290 00:16:29.120 --> 00:16:32.240 the numbers. The numbers point to the mayor doing an 291 00:16:32.320 --> 00:16:35.799 unbelievable job. So Lewis, let's play this again. This was 292 00:16:36.399 --> 00:16:39.519 Mam Donnie a couple days ago, and I'm very happy 293 00:16:39.639 --> 00:16:42.799 that Julie Menin, who is gaining more points with me 294 00:16:43.039 --> 00:16:46.120 by the week. She really is. She fired back at 295 00:16:46.159 --> 00:16:50.120 the Mayor over his redefining of the word rape. But 296 00:16:50.200 --> 00:16:54.879 this is Mam Donnie addressing Julie Mennin's concerns. Two days ago. 297 00:16:55.039 --> 00:16:57.120 Lewis cut number one. 298 00:16:57.440 --> 00:17:00.039 Believe the NYPD when they put forward their numbers, what 299 00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:02.679 we're seeing are some of the lowest numbers that New 300 00:17:02.759 --> 00:17:04.839 York City has seen in recorded history, especially when it 301 00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:07.279 comes to murders and shootings. He's the lowest we've ever seen. 302 00:17:07.559 --> 00:17:09.759 And what I think is important to know is a 303 00:17:09.880 --> 00:17:12.240 lot of the increase in rape also comes from an 304 00:17:12.279 --> 00:17:15.279 expanded definition of what counts as rape, as well as 305 00:17:15.599 --> 00:17:19.960 survivors coming forward for acts that took place years prior. 306 00:17:20.160 --> 00:17:22.359 And we are thankful for them coming forward, the courage 307 00:17:22.400 --> 00:17:24.279 and the bravery it takes. But just to provide New 308 00:17:24.359 --> 00:17:27.680 Yorkers with that context. And I'm proud that in working 309 00:17:27.720 --> 00:17:30.160 with Commissioner tissue is. 310 00:17:30.240 --> 00:17:35.000 So According to him, it's the word rape has to 311 00:17:35.079 --> 00:17:39.720 be redefined because people come out from years prior and 312 00:17:39.799 --> 00:17:42.640 it's not as bad because their cases are old. What 313 00:17:43.599 --> 00:17:44.759 what exactly did he say. 314 00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:49.480 I don't know, but an unwanted attack is an unwanted attack. 315 00:17:49.319 --> 00:17:52.160 Anyway you look at it, right, anyway you look at it. 316 00:17:52.799 --> 00:17:56.519 So this creep, he's such a creep. This mom Donnie 317 00:17:56.839 --> 00:18:01.960 has now redefine rape. Also, I know that Julie menin 318 00:18:02.119 --> 00:18:05.440 the city council speaker has talked about this. How do 319 00:18:05.559 --> 00:18:09.559 you say this? Romansh this new law about the horse 320 00:18:09.680 --> 00:18:10.480 drawn carriages. 321 00:18:10.559 --> 00:18:14.079 Yeah, it's named after the teenage victim from India, the 322 00:18:14.200 --> 00:18:16.519 tourist who was on that horse and buggy last month 323 00:18:16.640 --> 00:18:20.160 that the horse just went crazy and the carriage overturning 324 00:18:20.240 --> 00:18:20.599 killed him. 325 00:18:20.599 --> 00:18:22.799 He was eighteen years old. So they've named this bill 326 00:18:22.920 --> 00:18:24.839 rock Rokman, I think is how he says his name. 327 00:18:24.920 --> 00:18:25.480 How do you say it? 328 00:18:25.640 --> 00:18:26.480 I think it's Roman. 329 00:18:27.359 --> 00:18:30.319 Yeah, Okay, here's Julie Men and Lewis. This is yesterday 330 00:18:30.759 --> 00:18:34.559 announcing her support now for Ropeman's law, which is not 331 00:18:34.640 --> 00:18:36.559 going to make the unions happy. You're not going to 332 00:18:36.599 --> 00:18:39.359 make the people in Central Park happy because they make 333 00:18:39.400 --> 00:18:41.680 a lot of money, a lot of money on these 334 00:18:41.759 --> 00:18:46.160 horse drawn carriages. But I guess seeing dead horses laying 335 00:18:46.200 --> 00:18:49.119 in the middle of the street and this kid getting killed. 336 00:18:49.559 --> 00:18:52.559 I guess some of these local officials have seen enough. 337 00:18:52.759 --> 00:18:55.400 This is Julie menin cut number two. Look, when I. 338 00:18:55.480 --> 00:18:58.960 First became speaker, I knew I would have to make 339 00:18:59.200 --> 00:19:03.279 some difficult decisions, that doing the right thing would sometimes 340 00:19:03.440 --> 00:19:07.559 mean taking a stand when it wasn't always straightforward. I'm 341 00:19:07.559 --> 00:19:11.119 addressing you today from one of the most iconic locations 342 00:19:11.200 --> 00:19:14.839 in the world, New York's Central Park, during exactly one 343 00:19:15.000 --> 00:19:18.359 of those moments. Earlier this year, eighteen year old Romans 344 00:19:18.559 --> 00:19:22.440 Mahajan was killed after he was thrown from a horse 345 00:19:22.519 --> 00:19:26.759 drawn carriage. He was visiting New York from India to 346 00:19:26.920 --> 00:19:33.599 celebrate his high school graduation. Romanch's death was heartbreaking and infuriating, 347 00:19:34.000 --> 00:19:37.920 and sadly it was preventable. The day has come for 348 00:19:38.079 --> 00:19:41.640 our city to begin the transition away from horse drawn 349 00:19:41.759 --> 00:19:45.519 carriages as a tourist attraction in Central Park, for the 350 00:19:45.640 --> 00:19:49.200 safety of our residents, the safety of visitors from all 351 00:19:49.319 --> 00:19:53.039 across the globe, and the safety of the animals here 352 00:19:53.480 --> 00:19:56.839 at home. That is why I'm announcing my support today 353 00:19:56.920 --> 00:20:00.799 for the legislation currently before the New York City Council 354 00:20:01.160 --> 00:20:04.200 to ban or strong carriages. At the same time, the 355 00:20:04.319 --> 00:20:09.880 path forward must involve and protect workers who operate these carriages, 356 00:20:10.079 --> 00:20:13.359 and I'm actively working on a plan to guarantee them 357 00:20:13.799 --> 00:20:18.079 quality employment opportunities in the hospitality industry. 358 00:20:18.160 --> 00:20:19.559 It is also vital that we. 359 00:20:19.759 --> 00:20:24.000 Ensure a safe and humane transition for the beloved horses 360 00:20:24.319 --> 00:20:27.960 that made this industry possible in the first place. I 361 00:20:28.039 --> 00:20:31.000 have no doubt that I'm working closely with the advocates 362 00:20:31.119 --> 00:20:34.759 that we can do just that. Today, I really wanted 363 00:20:34.839 --> 00:20:38.240 to make my position clear. It's time to usher Central 364 00:20:38.319 --> 00:20:41.720 Park into a new, safer chapter in its long story. 365 00:20:42.039 --> 00:20:44.680 That is a work the City Council is committed to, 366 00:20:45.319 --> 00:20:48.160 and that is what I'm committed to as Speaker of 367 00:20:48.319 --> 00:20:49.440 the New York City Council. 368 00:20:50.039 --> 00:20:53.000 All Right, I disagree. I think the horse drawn carriages 369 00:20:53.599 --> 00:20:56.559 are fine. I'm out out there, of course, every day, 370 00:20:56.720 --> 00:21:00.240 trying to save federal cats on the street. I'm not 371 00:21:00.319 --> 00:21:02.839 out there with Jill Vitally yelling and screaming about the 372 00:21:02.920 --> 00:21:05.240 turtles dying from straws in the water. I get all 373 00:21:05.319 --> 00:21:08.119 that I love animals, about dogs my whole life. I 374 00:21:08.160 --> 00:21:11.200 don't love all animals. I hate cats, hate them. But 375 00:21:11.400 --> 00:21:14.759 I'm not that guy. So I think the horse drawn 376 00:21:14.799 --> 00:21:17.839 carriages are great. I think people enjoy them. I think 377 00:21:17.880 --> 00:21:20.440 it's a lot of revenue for our city, a city 378 00:21:20.519 --> 00:21:23.200 that is broke with a mayor that's making it worse 379 00:21:23.279 --> 00:21:25.599 and a governor making it worse as well. So I 380 00:21:25.680 --> 00:21:28.000 don't have a big issue with it. You might, though, 381 00:21:28.079 --> 00:21:30.640 know them because you're one of those liberal pussies. 382 00:21:32.119 --> 00:21:33.759 You know these workers. 383 00:21:33.839 --> 00:21:36.680 I don't believe the city council will find these workers 384 00:21:36.799 --> 00:21:39.279 new jobs there You imagine they you rip a ray 385 00:21:39.359 --> 00:21:41.680 their livelihood. This is all some of these people, This 386 00:21:41.799 --> 00:21:43.200 is all they've done their entire career. 387 00:21:43.240 --> 00:21:45.720 Now they're one hundred percent right. I know Julie Mennon 388 00:21:45.839 --> 00:21:49.519 means well, and maybe she intends to do what she says. 389 00:21:50.039 --> 00:21:52.240 It's never gonna happen. No, a lot of these people 390 00:21:52.240 --> 00:21:55.519 are going to be out of work, bottom line, And. 391 00:21:55.559 --> 00:21:56.240 It's a lot of people. 392 00:21:56.319 --> 00:21:58.720 It's not just the people who drive the horses, it's 393 00:21:58.759 --> 00:22:00.599 the people who take care of the horse is overnight 394 00:22:01.039 --> 00:22:03.599 and where you know, when they're brought back to the 395 00:22:03.680 --> 00:22:06.000 West Side. There's a fair amount of people involved in 396 00:22:06.079 --> 00:22:08.680 this industry. All those people will lose, the people who 397 00:22:08.720 --> 00:22:11.880 own the horse and carriages, the people own the horses 398 00:22:11.960 --> 00:22:14.039 all those people are gonna lose their livelihood. You're gonna 399 00:22:14.039 --> 00:22:16.119 find those people jobs that pay them just as well 400 00:22:16.160 --> 00:22:18.960 as their money they're making. Now, I don't buy it. 401 00:22:19.000 --> 00:22:21.000 And by the way, neither there's the union. Union says 402 00:22:21.000 --> 00:22:23.119 they don't believe that the city they want. They want 403 00:22:23.279 --> 00:22:25.640 details like what jobs you're gonna find them, how much? 404 00:22:25.680 --> 00:22:27.319 Just gonna put the name of that guy. He's in 405 00:22:27.440 --> 00:22:30.480 charge of that union. He came in here when Ma'm 406 00:22:30.559 --> 00:22:33.599 donald was running god and I scared the hell out 407 00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:35.519 of them. Actually I don't remember was head of a 408 00:22:35.559 --> 00:22:36.119 popular guy. 409 00:22:37.880 --> 00:22:39.920 Yeah, I don't know. But at any rate, you know, 410 00:22:40.039 --> 00:22:44.400 yesterday Vicky Palladino's on the show and she's talking about 411 00:22:44.559 --> 00:22:50.640 no more fish as awards at the carnival. Come on, 412 00:22:51.200 --> 00:22:53.720 even she lamped, there's got to be more important stuff 413 00:22:53.759 --> 00:22:57.519 than this getting carn up in nonsense like this, no 414 00:22:57.799 --> 00:23:02.599 fish as gifts at the carnival. I mean, that's a 415 00:23:02.640 --> 00:23:03.480 big deal for you know. 416 00:23:04.160 --> 00:23:05.079 No goldfish. 417 00:23:05.279 --> 00:23:07.319 But you know, remember that game where you try to 418 00:23:07.319 --> 00:23:08.960 take the ping pong ball and you try to get 419 00:23:08.960 --> 00:23:10.720 it into one of those lettle fish balls, and you 420 00:23:10.799 --> 00:23:12.000 do you never take it home? 421 00:23:12.799 --> 00:23:16.000 Yeah, yeah, but of course they would die like two days. 422 00:23:16.599 --> 00:23:17.720 They always died right away. 423 00:23:17.920 --> 00:23:21.079 Just the trauma being hit by ping pong balls was 424 00:23:21.240 --> 00:23:24.000 enough to kill the goldfish. Look, she's an animal lover, 425 00:23:24.319 --> 00:23:26.519 so she wants to protect animals. I got nothing against that. 426 00:23:27.000 --> 00:23:29.640 Is she really or she just doing upper constituents. I 427 00:23:29.680 --> 00:23:29.920 don't know. 428 00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:32.920 Pick wi animal may I guess she's an animal lover. 429 00:23:33.000 --> 00:23:35.240 If you think if you're worried about goldfish, here animal. 430 00:23:35.240 --> 00:23:36.759 I don't think she's worried about it. I think it 431 00:23:37.119 --> 00:23:38.799 just may work out well for her with her people. 432 00:23:38.880 --> 00:23:41.519 I don't know. I mean, I don't know. Best of 433 00:23:41.599 --> 00:23:44.720 luck with all. That is all I can say. Sully Sullenberger. 434 00:23:45.039 --> 00:23:49.640 We all remember the brave and courageous pilot Sully Sullenberger 435 00:23:49.720 --> 00:23:53.480 who landed that plane on the Hudson River. Have no 436 00:23:53.559 --> 00:23:56.240 idea how we did it, and nobody died that day. 437 00:23:56.880 --> 00:24:00.920 And now it turns out that Sully has almost much 438 00:24:01.039 --> 00:24:04.240 like Bill Ritter, who's going to be inducted into the 439 00:24:04.319 --> 00:24:07.160 Broadcasting Hall of Fame the same day. I am, that's 440 00:24:07.240 --> 00:24:10.000 right me. Bill Ritterer goes at of Scatto and four 441 00:24:10.079 --> 00:24:13.160 other people. There's other names that have come up recently 442 00:24:13.279 --> 00:24:16.039 that are suffering from the same thing, but this one 443 00:24:16.240 --> 00:24:19.079 with Sully Sullenberger. Nome looks to be very sad. 444 00:24:19.319 --> 00:24:22.519 Yeah, well, he said just over the last months and 445 00:24:22.640 --> 00:24:25.240 maybe a year, maybe more, he started to realize he 446 00:24:25.359 --> 00:24:27.839 was forgetting things in a way that wasn't right, not 447 00:24:28.000 --> 00:24:30.759 just getting older. And so we went in and he 448 00:24:30.920 --> 00:24:33.359 was diagnosed, and he said he's coming forward in the 449 00:24:33.400 --> 00:24:36.000 same way that Bill Ridder and then Danny Glover. Right, 450 00:24:36.000 --> 00:24:39.319 he had the time same Alzheimer's diagnosis, because he hopes 451 00:24:39.480 --> 00:24:42.079 it will inspire people to do more research to figure 452 00:24:42.119 --> 00:24:45.039 out what brings on Alzheimer's and find a cure for it, 453 00:24:45.079 --> 00:24:46.119 because there's no cure for it. 454 00:24:46.440 --> 00:24:48.799 Paulk Levin will join us today, the great one. I 455 00:24:48.880 --> 00:24:52.000 get as excited as I did with Trump, well, like 456 00:24:52.079 --> 00:24:53.759 I did with Boebe a couple of days ago, when 457 00:24:53.839 --> 00:24:56.960 Mark Levin is on this show. That's how much respect 458 00:24:57.000 --> 00:24:59.519 I've got. But Mark, look well, very very close. We 459 00:24:59.640 --> 00:25:03.119 talked every day every day. Levin and I text each other, 460 00:25:03.680 --> 00:25:06.839 and he is a great fighter and a brilliant guy. 461 00:25:07.200 --> 00:25:09.519 And you heard him with Seawan Hannity in the open 462 00:25:10.160 --> 00:25:13.359 doing a piece on Hannity's TV show about who he 463 00:25:13.480 --> 00:25:17.200 gets angry when people referred to Lindsay Graham, the late 464 00:25:17.240 --> 00:25:20.839 great Lindsay Graham, as a warmonger, And I agree with Levin, 465 00:25:20.880 --> 00:25:24.640 what do you mean warmonger? If somebody bombs Israel, they're 466 00:25:24.640 --> 00:25:28.920 gonna fight back. If somebody bombs Ukraine, they're gonna fight back. 467 00:25:29.440 --> 00:25:32.400 That makes you a warmonger. I've never heard Lindsay Graham 468 00:25:32.480 --> 00:25:36.200 say go into some place where there's no conflict and 469 00:25:36.440 --> 00:25:39.039 just bomb him. I never heard him say that. So 470 00:25:39.240 --> 00:25:42.279 my friend Aaron Mollin, who I love and respect, young 471 00:25:42.359 --> 00:25:46.559 lady out of Australia, who's got a huge following here 472 00:25:46.599 --> 00:25:48.920 in the United States. She really does. We did an 473 00:25:48.920 --> 00:25:51.480 event together for the MJE a couple of months ago, 474 00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:55.160 me her and James Maslow and Bruce Pearl and a 475 00:25:55.240 --> 00:25:57.960 host of brothers. Emily Austin, my daughter was there too. 476 00:25:58.359 --> 00:26:02.279 Turns out that Aaron mulan agrees with me and Mark Levin. 477 00:26:02.359 --> 00:26:06.039 Excuse me, Aaron Moulin, Lewis this is Aaron Moulin cut 478 00:26:06.200 --> 00:26:06.920 number eight. 479 00:26:07.480 --> 00:26:09.880 The other point I wanted to touch on Lindsey Graham, 480 00:26:09.920 --> 00:26:14.759 and of course we've seen the most vile, disgusting celebrations 481 00:26:14.920 --> 00:26:20.839 of his death from those particularly in America, who hate 482 00:26:21.119 --> 00:26:25.720 America because you cannot celebrate the death of someone who 483 00:26:25.759 --> 00:26:28.279 has dedicated their life to serving that country. Whether you 484 00:26:28.359 --> 00:26:31.079 agree with everything they say or do or not, you 485 00:26:31.200 --> 00:26:34.319 cannot celebrate it. If you love your country, it's impossible. 486 00:26:35.039 --> 00:26:36.079 They hate their country. 487 00:26:36.680 --> 00:26:37.160 They hate it. 488 00:26:37.599 --> 00:26:39.039 And the other point I want to make is this 489 00:26:39.279 --> 00:26:43.519 kind of it's lazy where people say Lindsay Graham he 490 00:26:43.680 --> 00:26:47.319 was a war maker, such a warmonger, he loved war. 491 00:26:48.839 --> 00:26:51.640 He was or this or that, or always desperate for 492 00:26:51.759 --> 00:26:55.279 conflict b s. That is not true on any level. 493 00:26:56.079 --> 00:26:57.720 He was not a warmonger. 494 00:26:58.559 --> 00:27:06.759 He just understood the enemy. That's it. He understands that 495 00:27:06.960 --> 00:27:14.240 with some regimes, diplomacy does not work completely ineffective. Weakness 496 00:27:14.640 --> 00:27:21.480 will be your downfall. That's what he understood. He didn't 497 00:27:21.680 --> 00:27:26.599 crave war. He wasn't out there championing conflict just for 498 00:27:26.720 --> 00:27:32.279 the sake of it. He stood behind armed conflict when 499 00:27:32.359 --> 00:27:37.720 it was necessary, when it mattered, when the enemy was 500 00:27:37.920 --> 00:27:45.079 incapable of diplomacy. That's it. That doesn't make him a warmonger. 501 00:27:46.559 --> 00:27:47.680 That stuff is crazy. 502 00:27:48.240 --> 00:27:49.720 I don't even know what he said. In this level 503 00:27:49.720 --> 00:27:53.200 of action. They gotta be honest. I did love that 504 00:27:53.559 --> 00:27:57.240 Australian accent. But she's right about the late great Lindsey Graham. 505 00:27:57.319 --> 00:28:00.799 That was well, it's all over the internet still. Every 506 00:28:00.920 --> 00:28:04.799 couple of seconds, somebody else pops up talks about Lindsey 507 00:28:04.880 --> 00:28:07.359 Graham as if they knew him. They don't. So it 508 00:28:07.480 --> 00:28:10.720 is sad the way the media and the politicians have 509 00:28:10.880 --> 00:28:13.240 treated him. And there seems to be a really good 510 00:28:13.319 --> 00:28:15.200 war brewing right now. And tried to get him both 511 00:28:15.240 --> 00:28:19.519 on today but neither responded. Between our guy, the King 512 00:28:19.559 --> 00:28:22.720 of Rock and County, mister Salt, the Great Mike Lawler, 513 00:28:23.160 --> 00:28:26.599 and Nancy Mace. Well, Nancy Mace was supposed to be 514 00:28:26.680 --> 00:28:28.480 on two days ago, but I ran out of time. 515 00:28:28.960 --> 00:28:31.519 Then she said you would come on yesterday, but she 516 00:28:31.640 --> 00:28:34.880 never called. She texted me about four hours later yesterday 517 00:28:34.880 --> 00:28:39.519 afternoon to apologize. But I guess after Lindsey Graham died, 518 00:28:40.359 --> 00:28:44.559 Nancy Mace puts on Twitter, you know the scene from 519 00:28:44.599 --> 00:28:47.759 God Fathered, iie when al Pacino's like, just when I 520 00:28:47.799 --> 00:28:49.880 thought I was out, they dragged me back in, you 521 00:28:49.920 --> 00:28:53.920 know that scene blew and no, So I guess she 522 00:28:54.039 --> 00:28:58.680 was trying to imply that Trump was somebody else was 523 00:28:58.759 --> 00:29:02.000 gonna drag her back in because she just got her 524 00:29:02.119 --> 00:29:06.359 ass kicked in the gubernatorial primary. Trump actually endorsed somebody else. 525 00:29:06.640 --> 00:29:10.160 I guess she was trying to imply that Trump or 526 00:29:10.279 --> 00:29:13.759 somebody wanted her to come back in and maybe take 527 00:29:13.839 --> 00:29:18.440 over that Graham seat. But no one said that. Nobody, 528 00:29:18.640 --> 00:29:22.640 And Lawler said, how pathetic is it that you're actually 529 00:29:22.799 --> 00:29:27.279 kind of celebrating the death of Lindsey Graham because you're 530 00:29:27.319 --> 00:29:32.599 looking at as a possible opportunity. And it got really 531 00:29:32.880 --> 00:29:38.160 nasty between Mike Lawler and Nancy Mace. But again, neither one, 532 00:29:38.279 --> 00:29:41.359 at least at this point, has agreed to come out 533 00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:45.200 and talk about it. They will eventually, and I mean eventually, 534 00:29:45.240 --> 00:29:47.799 I mean this week. But have you seen the ugliness? 535 00:29:47.880 --> 00:29:47.920 No? 536 00:29:48.400 --> 00:29:48.880 Yeah, I did. 537 00:29:49.079 --> 00:29:51.000 I feel like there was another dust up between the 538 00:29:51.039 --> 00:29:53.079 two of them, right, this may not be the first time. 539 00:29:53.279 --> 00:29:55.920 Probably not. I mean Nancy, And you know, I said, 540 00:29:55.920 --> 00:29:58.559 I get along with Nancy. All you hear about is 541 00:29:58.599 --> 00:30:01.920 how crazy she is. She's nuts. And I've always got 542 00:30:02.119 --> 00:30:05.119 a good relationship with Nancy, I really have. But with 543 00:30:05.279 --> 00:30:09.240 that said, she seems to have these dust ups with 544 00:30:09.480 --> 00:30:13.519 other members of Congress and politicians in general and media 545 00:30:13.680 --> 00:30:18.000 all those types of people relatively often, I would say 546 00:30:18.000 --> 00:30:20.839 about Nancy Mays, so I'm not surprised to see this. 547 00:30:21.079 --> 00:30:25.480 But you know, Lawler, he ain't gonna back down. Mike's 548 00:30:25.640 --> 00:30:28.960 very very tough. Nancy, she's kno going to back down. 549 00:30:29.359 --> 00:30:32.920 So this one Lawler and Mace could turn out to 550 00:30:33.000 --> 00:30:36.599 be a battle royale better than the Connor McGregor fight. 551 00:30:36.640 --> 00:30:37.200 I'll tell you not. 552 00:30:38.079 --> 00:30:38.559 What was that? 553 00:30:39.359 --> 00:30:40.920 What did he last five seconds? 554 00:30:41.079 --> 00:30:42.559 It was about forty seconds. 555 00:30:42.640 --> 00:30:45.920 Oh, it's like me on a Saturday night. Come on, Connor. 556 00:30:46.319 --> 00:30:46.960 What happened? 557 00:30:47.119 --> 00:30:49.519 Well, it looked like I was watching the fight. 558 00:30:49.599 --> 00:30:52.599 It looked like he went to do this kick and 559 00:30:52.759 --> 00:30:55.039 the way he fell on his he's the right or 560 00:30:55.119 --> 00:30:57.960 left leg, you could see right away that something had happened. 561 00:30:57.960 --> 00:31:00.960 And then he fell like two more or three more times, 562 00:31:01.359 --> 00:31:02.960 and his opponent final he said, I don't want to 563 00:31:02.960 --> 00:31:04.240 beat the living day lights side of this guy. 564 00:31:04.240 --> 00:31:06.319 He's clearly injured. So they called the fight right then 565 00:31:06.359 --> 00:31:06.640 and there. 566 00:31:06.799 --> 00:31:09.720 I mean the guy he was fighting actually felt bad. 567 00:31:10.079 --> 00:31:12.200 Yes, well, initially he just pounded him and then he 568 00:31:12.240 --> 00:31:15.559 could see that he he was he couldn't stand, and 569 00:31:15.720 --> 00:31:17.799 so he kind of looked at the ref and the 570 00:31:17.880 --> 00:31:19.759 ref is like, oh, yeah, I better call this thing, 571 00:31:19.839 --> 00:31:23.200 and then you know something happened where he either pulled 572 00:31:23.279 --> 00:31:25.119 something on his way into the ring. 573 00:31:28.039 --> 00:31:29.640 Well, I guess essentially you do pay for it. 574 00:31:29.720 --> 00:31:32.000 All the UFC fights have now moved to paramount, so 575 00:31:32.079 --> 00:31:34.480 you pay whatever it is a month for paramount. 576 00:31:34.480 --> 00:31:37.960 I don't say poaramount also had nobody watches it anymore. 577 00:31:38.000 --> 00:31:40.920 But the Kevin Costner show out there in the in Montana, 578 00:31:41.000 --> 00:31:45.079 what do you call that a yellowstone? Yes, yes, but 579 00:31:45.160 --> 00:31:47.119 I don't know what else is on paramount now that 580 00:31:47.279 --> 00:31:50.480 would attract people. But they get all the UFC fights, 581 00:31:50.559 --> 00:31:53.079 so you do have to pay for that, right, Well, 582 00:31:53.440 --> 00:31:55.039 what's money did Connor McGregor make. 583 00:31:55.440 --> 00:31:56.960 I'm sure he got a good payday. I don't know 584 00:31:57.039 --> 00:31:57.400 how much. 585 00:31:57.559 --> 00:32:00.680 Probably a ton, Yeah, you would think, so, what a 586 00:32:00.759 --> 00:32:04.400 disappointment though they don't pay Dana White does not pay 587 00:32:04.480 --> 00:32:05.640 those UFC fighters much. 588 00:32:05.759 --> 00:32:07.079 No, some of those guys make nothing. 589 00:32:07.279 --> 00:32:12.079 Yeah they got I mean yeah, I mean it's not boxing. 590 00:32:12.119 --> 00:32:15.119 These guys are getting read No, they're like half for 591 00:32:15.240 --> 00:32:17.319 tarded by the age of twenty five. Some of them 592 00:32:17.319 --> 00:32:19.839 are even more than a half for tarded. And yeah, 593 00:32:19.880 --> 00:32:20.720 they barely pay him. 594 00:32:20.720 --> 00:32:24.480 I know Dana doesn't. Dana's like Howard Stern. Did you 595 00:32:24.519 --> 00:32:26.759 see the Howard Stern story that we laid off like 596 00:32:26.799 --> 00:32:29.079 almost all of his stamp I know Sal and Richard 597 00:32:29.079 --> 00:32:33.160 are safe, but Stern laid off a whole bunch of 598 00:32:33.319 --> 00:32:38.680 his employees yesterday the day before. And now this is unreal. 599 00:32:38.799 --> 00:32:41.000 Now he's announced because he's on vacation. I know he 600 00:32:41.119 --> 00:32:44.000 goes then the Hampton's with his lovely white Beth and 601 00:32:44.079 --> 00:32:47.599 they have dinner with horrible people like George Stepanopolis. So 602 00:32:47.720 --> 00:32:51.440 when he gets back Howard Stern media announcement yesterday, that 603 00:32:51.599 --> 00:32:54.119 is gonna do us all a big favor.

Seven figures. He's going to 608 00:33:10.279 --> 00:33:14.079 work one day a week, the unbelievable. 609 00:33:14.200 --> 00:33:16.039 Yeah, oh, I guess he looked at John Stewart over 610 00:33:16.119 --> 00:33:17.960 on Comedy Central and he's like, look, that's a good 611 00:33:17.960 --> 00:33:20.200 gigib Well, John does the same thing right, Yeah, Monday, 612 00:33:20.839 --> 00:33:23.160 Monday nights. That's it and it probably makes an enormous 613 00:33:23.160 --> 00:33:23.640 sum to do that. 614 00:33:23.720 --> 00:33:25.279 Oh he's also a seven figure guy. 615 00:33:25.400 --> 00:33:25.559 Yeah. 616 00:33:25.599 --> 00:33:29.759 Could you imagine we pay people in this country in 617 00:33:30.000 --> 00:33:34.960 entertainment seven figure salaries to work once a week. Once 618 00:33:34.960 --> 00:33:37.519 a week. I mean, we're your five days a week, 619 00:33:37.640 --> 00:33:40.640 and you know you're here at the ungodly hour. Me 620 00:33:40.759 --> 00:33:45.240 and lewis ungodly hour. Justin ungodly hour.

There are 623 00:33:49.480 --> 00:33:52.160 days I'm here doing interviews and stuff even later than that. 624 00:33:53.319 --> 00:33:56.920 And there are guys making seven figures working one day 625 00:33:57.039 --> 00:33:57.359 a week. 626 00:33:57.519 --> 00:33:59.759 Right, Well, they're not working for nonprofits, so clearly they 627 00:33:59.839 --> 00:34:02.319 can command that money because the networks are making that 628 00:34:02.400 --> 00:34:02.880 kind of money. 629 00:34:02.880 --> 00:34:04.599 I don't think so, I don't think why would we 630 00:34:04.680 --> 00:34:06.880 keep them on? I don't know. Maybe they just feel 631 00:34:07.000 --> 00:34:08.119 indebted to Howard. 632 00:34:09.440 --> 00:34:11.599 Business model doesn't say, hey, we get I think it's 633 00:34:11.719 --> 00:34:13.159 the subscriber bases there. 634 00:34:13.280 --> 00:34:14.639 The commercial spots are still there. 635 00:34:15.199 --> 00:34:16.960 But I've read I've read that he's lost so many 636 00:34:17.000 --> 00:34:17.239 of those. 637 00:34:17.480 --> 00:34:19.760 He may have, he may have, but he still clearly 638 00:34:19.800 --> 00:34:21.119 has enough that they want to pay him to do 639 00:34:21.199 --> 00:34:21.800 one day a week. 640 00:34:21.920 --> 00:34:24.159 Not yes, I mean I remember the Knicks did a 641 00:34:24.199 --> 00:34:26.239 really nice contract for Patrick Ewing at the end it 642 00:34:26.360 --> 00:34:29.679 was basically thank you before they traded him to Orlando. 643 00:34:30.320 --> 00:34:33.320 Maybe melt Carmomel is out of there anyway, right, yeah, long, 644 00:34:33.840 --> 00:34:36.079 long gone. All right, So the the second half of 645 00:34:36.119 --> 00:34:40.599 the baseball season starts tomorrow. The Mets, believe it or not, 646 00:34:40.760 --> 00:34:44.519 are the only team in Major League Baseball to play tomorrow. 647 00:34:44.960 --> 00:34:47.440 They start off the second half against the Philadelphia Phillies. 648 00:34:47.719 --> 00:34:51.119 The Yankees, who won their last four games before the break. 649 00:34:51.519 --> 00:34:55.840 They start their second half on Friday. So yesterday a 650 00:34:56.119 --> 00:34:59.880 Rod caught up with New York Mets Superstar one Soda 651 00:35:00.559 --> 00:35:03.519 before the All Star Game, which the al One Ford 652 00:35:03.559 --> 00:35:07.320 and nothing nobody cares but local Cody Bellinger from the 653 00:35:07.400 --> 00:35:10.760 Yankees did win the All Star Game MVP, so the 654 00:35:10.880 --> 00:35:14.400 Yankees one of their players gets the All Star Game hardware. 655 00:35:14.880 --> 00:35:19.039 But it was Soto with a Rod talking about the 656 00:35:19.199 --> 00:35:22.559 Mets in the second half and why Met bands like 657 00:35:22.719 --> 00:35:25.079 Lisa Gangi and Joe Bningo and the rest of us 658 00:35:25.639 --> 00:35:28.760 should be confident that the Mets will actually make a 659 00:35:28.960 --> 00:35:32.039 second half run. So I watched the video with a 660 00:35:32.199 --> 00:35:35.079 Rod and Juan Soto and I couldn't figure it out. 661 00:35:35.199 --> 00:35:38.360 Maybe you guys can. This is a cut number fourteen 662 00:35:38.519 --> 00:35:42.320 Lewis Juan Soto on what's going to be a resurgent 663 00:35:42.760 --> 00:35:45.079 New York Met team in the second half. 664 00:35:45.360 --> 00:35:47.079 What is it that you need to do for New 665 00:35:47.159 --> 00:35:50.960 York for the Mets to implement your leadership skills and 666 00:35:51.039 --> 00:35:51.760 get this team going? 667 00:35:51.880 --> 00:35:52.559 Like I know you will. 668 00:35:53.199 --> 00:35:56.079 I mean for me, I will say, I've been trying 669 00:35:56.480 --> 00:35:59.199 everything that I can, you know, to help my guys 670 00:35:59.280 --> 00:36:00.639 to get them going. 671 00:36:00.719 --> 00:36:03.039 Definitely, you know I'm a different guy. 672 00:36:03.079 --> 00:36:05.199 I won't be bocal, I won't be pushing, I won't 673 00:36:05.239 --> 00:36:07.559 be yelling and everybody but I I'll be the guy 674 00:36:07.719 --> 00:36:10.599 that whenever you need me, whenever you need an advice 675 00:36:10.719 --> 00:36:12.880 or something that I've been going through, or if I 676 00:36:13.000 --> 00:36:15.960 need to step in, I will do it. And that's 677 00:36:15.960 --> 00:36:17.599 one of the things I've been trying to do. You know, 678 00:36:17.760 --> 00:36:20.519 whenever my guys need me, I'll be there for them. 679 00:36:20.880 --> 00:36:22.920 I always put my shirts in front of them, you know, 680 00:36:23.079 --> 00:36:26.119 to help them, you know, to get back to what 681 00:36:26.239 --> 00:36:28.440 they what they are, what they could be. 682 00:36:29.519 --> 00:36:31.800 And definitely, I know how hard it is New York 683 00:36:31.880 --> 00:36:32.039 you know. 684 00:36:32.280 --> 00:36:35.599 And I have teams that have been that came in 685 00:36:35.960 --> 00:36:38.519 for the first time and they've been feeling the same way, 686 00:36:38.559 --> 00:36:40.039 you know, and we've been trying to help them to 687 00:36:40.079 --> 00:36:41.000 get back to what they are. 688 00:36:41.559 --> 00:36:45.679 Matt's are seventeen games under five hundred. They start the 689 00:36:45.800 --> 00:36:49.199 second half, and again they've already played ninety seven baseball games. 690 00:36:49.320 --> 00:36:52.079 It's not the halfway point, it's further. There's only for 691 00:36:52.159 --> 00:36:55.000 the match sixty five games to go. But they're forty 692 00:36:55.159 --> 00:36:59.239 and fifty seven dead last, almost twenty back inside the 693 00:36:59.440 --> 00:37:03.519 NL East. But Juan Soto trying to provide hope for 694 00:37:03.679 --> 00:37:07.039 the metfan. You know, I saw Adam Shine. He used 695 00:37:07.079 --> 00:37:08.880 to work with me and Louis. We know Adam very 696 00:37:09.000 --> 00:37:11.760 very well over at W Bayn. He has worked many 697 00:37:11.840 --> 00:37:15.400 years now for Christopher mad Dog Russo on Dog's channel, 698 00:37:15.519 --> 00:37:19.159 mad Dog Unleashed on Serious Exam. Nice kid, nice young 699 00:37:19.239 --> 00:37:22.599 Jewish kid from Rocklin County, and he loves his sports, 700 00:37:22.639 --> 00:37:26.360 and he's done CBS television and again W BAYN and 701 00:37:26.679 --> 00:37:29.280 Dog's channels. So he's got a pretty good resume for 702 00:37:29.360 --> 00:37:32.960 a young guy. And somehow Adam Shine was able to 703 00:37:33.039 --> 00:37:36.159 catch up with Derek Jeter, so we did a met 704 00:37:36.519 --> 00:37:40.760 second half preview with Juan Soto. Shine asked the great 705 00:37:40.840 --> 00:37:44.880 Yankee shortstop, specifically about the young shortstop of the Yankees 706 00:37:45.360 --> 00:37:49.119 right now, Anthony Volpi. So this is Adam Shine with 707 00:37:49.320 --> 00:37:53.119 Derek Jeter on Volpie, who Brian Cashman seems to think 708 00:37:53.480 --> 00:37:56.000 is the shortstop of the future for the Yanks. This 709 00:37:56.239 --> 00:37:57.880 Lewis is cutting number thirteen. 710 00:37:57.960 --> 00:38:00.280 What do the Yankees do with Anthony Volpi? I mean, 711 00:38:00.440 --> 00:38:02.559 it's been a couple of years now where he has 712 00:38:02.639 --> 00:38:05.199 not played well. Look, there is pressure I'll be in 713 00:38:05.280 --> 00:38:09.079 the Yankee shortstop, but we've now seen a body of work. 714 00:38:09.559 --> 00:38:11.920 If you were running the Yankees, how would you handle 715 00:38:11.960 --> 00:38:12.679 Anthony Volpi? 716 00:38:12.760 --> 00:38:17.800 Well, I'm not running the Yankees right, fair enough, that's 717 00:38:17.840 --> 00:38:22.280 the first thing. Look, I think as a as a 718 00:38:22.360 --> 00:38:24.400 young player. Look, it's obvious the Yankees have made a 719 00:38:24.440 --> 00:38:28.159 commitment to Anthony, right They're committed to but they're they're 720 00:38:28.159 --> 00:38:30.920 also not only committed to him being the shortstop, but 721 00:38:30.960 --> 00:38:33.639 they're committed to allowing him to further. 722 00:38:33.559 --> 00:38:35.000 Develop at the major league level. 723 00:38:35.639 --> 00:38:39.280 And you know at times when fans are watching that 724 00:38:39.840 --> 00:38:42.960 they get frustrated. But every player has gone through it. 725 00:38:43.039 --> 00:38:45.239 Every player has gone through bumps in the road, you 726 00:38:45.280 --> 00:38:47.239 know what I mean. But most of the time those 727 00:38:47.320 --> 00:38:49.400 bumps in the road are in the minor leagues, so 728 00:38:49.480 --> 00:38:51.599 it's not something that you see on a daily basis. 729 00:38:51.719 --> 00:38:55.920 But the Yankees are very high on Anthony. I don't personally. 730 00:38:55.960 --> 00:38:57.199 I don't know him that well. 731 00:38:57.239 --> 00:38:58.519 We've had a couple of conversations. 732 00:38:58.559 --> 00:38:59.360 I don't know him well. 733 00:39:00.920 --> 00:39:03.280 But yeah, I think they're they're banking on a big 734 00:39:03.400 --> 00:39:06.320 upside and you know, hopefully he can put it together here. 735 00:39:06.360 --> 00:39:08.519 They can put it together soon. You know, you go 736 00:39:08.639 --> 00:39:10.800 back to the World Series a few years ago.

I mean, we've all 742 00:39:21.639 --> 00:39:24.000 been there, you know what I mean, And every mistake 743 00:39:24.199 --> 00:39:26.880 is magnified and well, hopefully he can turn. 744 00:39:26.719 --> 00:39:28.880 It around, all right.

He worked with 764 00:40:16.199 --> 00:40:19.679 Stern for years, also worked for Mark Levin.

Marty Seinman, 790 00:41:49.400 --> 00:41:53.599 who's in charge of the baseball I guess all the 791 00:41:53.679 --> 00:41:56.400 meetings that they'll be having to try to save baseball 792 00:41:56.519 --> 00:41:59.599 next year, which does not seem likely if you're a 793 00:41:59.639 --> 00:42:02.559 big bag spat man just see you know, I'm about 794 00:42:02.719 --> 00:42:05.440 ninety nine point nine nine percent sure there's not going 795 00:42:05.480 --> 00:42:09.440 to be baseball next year. They have huge issues. And 796 00:42:09.679 --> 00:42:12.280 Marty Shiman at dinner last night is going to be 797 00:42:12.320 --> 00:42:15.159 the guy working on all these meetings? 798 00:42:15.800 --> 00:42:15.920 Was he? 799 00:42:16.639 --> 00:42:19.079 He's come on, look what was his name? He's in 800 00:42:19.159 --> 00:42:22.199 the Hall of Fame who was very famous doing all 801 00:42:22.239 --> 00:42:28.199 the negotiating the arbitrator. Yeah, was a Marmon Miller. Remember 802 00:42:28.239 --> 00:42:28.559 that name. 803 00:42:28.639 --> 00:42:31.239 Lewis is in the same time frame as mar Miller. 804 00:42:31.400 --> 00:42:31.559 Yeah. 805 00:42:31.639 --> 00:42:34.159 So this guy, Marty Shimon, I think has that job now. 806 00:42:34.840 --> 00:42:37.800 And he was at dinner last night and Matta Doll 807 00:42:37.920 --> 00:42:40.880 and your boy Lewis, He's gonna call you today, Doctor 808 00:42:40.920 --> 00:42:44.800 Brad Wasserman.

I'm hosting an event 813 00:43:01.239 --> 00:43:04.719 for Joseph in the city next Tuesday. Leslie Dixon who 814 00:43:04.800 --> 00:43:07.840 works with Ryan Sirhan good friends with USU and Eb 815 00:43:08.000 --> 00:43:12.480 Sanchez and of course Lewis sour guy, Mark Oranger. We 816 00:43:12.599 --> 00:43:14.079 love big Mark, Love Oranger. 817 00:43:14.519 --> 00:43:14.719 Mark. 818 00:43:14.960 --> 00:43:18.440 He is great. It looks like Miller is Yeah, Marvin Miller, 819 00:43:18.679 --> 00:43:20.920 but I think, uh Lou the guy that has that 820 00:43:21.119 --> 00:43:24.159 job now, this guy Marty Sinman. He was at dinner 821 00:43:24.239 --> 00:43:27.280 last night. So it was a really pretty impressive bunch. 822 00:43:27.800 --> 00:43:30.400 Stevie does a great job with el Manelo. You know 823 00:43:30.519 --> 00:43:34.039 he was Loo He was a busboy at that place. 824 00:43:34.239 --> 00:43:35.159 Yeah, I talk with that guy. 825 00:43:35.400 --> 00:43:38.559 Oh you did okay, great, great looking guy out of Kosovo. 826 00:43:39.039 --> 00:43:41.360 And now he owns the place. And he's got this 827 00:43:41.599 --> 00:43:44.599 one wall where he's got all these pictures of him 828 00:43:44.679 --> 00:43:47.920 with famous people like cats hats upstairs on the fifth floor. 829 00:43:48.000 --> 00:43:50.440 No one has taken more pictures with famous people than 830 00:43:50.480 --> 00:43:53.679 John Katzmatiti's. But he's got a nice wall. It's him 831 00:43:53.719 --> 00:43:57.559 and Mike Johnson, him and Bill Clinton, him and bo Didle. 832 00:43:57.880 --> 00:43:59.559 It turns out that Tack of Pena is a regular 833 00:43:59.559 --> 00:44:01.760 that don't even know that. So he's got a picture 834 00:44:01.800 --> 00:44:04.320 with me that he's gonna put on the wall coming 835 00:44:04.400 --> 00:44:06.719 up this week. He took one with me and one 836 00:44:06.800 --> 00:44:09.800 with the former mayor Eric Adams. So Stevie does a 837 00:44:09.840 --> 00:44:12.760 great job there. It's a terrific restaurant, Il Manello on 838 00:44:13.000 --> 00:44:15.920 forty ninth between First and Second Avenue. 839 00:44:16.199 --> 00:44:17.960 What did Marty say about what's gonna happen? 840 00:44:18.079 --> 00:44:20.880 He, you know, he can't get too much into it. 841 00:44:20.920 --> 00:44:22.920 But when I said there'll be no baseball next year, 842 00:44:23.000 --> 00:44:25.920 he agreed. He didn't disagree at least. And then I said, 843 00:44:26.119 --> 00:44:29.480 it's so bad, lou we met out of baseball for 844 00:44:29.519 --> 00:44:31.320 two years. He said, that's ever gonna happen. That's hover 845 00:44:31.360 --> 00:44:34.320 gonna happen. Right, He shot that down, but he certainly 846 00:44:34.440 --> 00:44:40.239 didn't seem optimistic about any type of agreement before next season. 847 00:44:40.679 --> 00:44:42.920 And to answer your question, knowing that you asked justin 848 00:44:43.000 --> 00:44:47.840 this morning about what happened to him Pope yesterday, Spain's 849 00:44:47.880 --> 00:44:50.400 not good. Nothing happened to him. He's a great player. 850 00:44:50.880 --> 00:44:55.920 Spain is far and away, it's not even close, far 851 00:44:56.199 --> 00:45:00.480 and away the best defensive team in this tournament. And 852 00:45:00.880 --> 00:45:04.079 even when Argentina beats England today, which they will because 853 00:45:04.119 --> 00:45:07.840 Messi will outscore Kine, Argentina will move on. They're not 854 00:45:08.000 --> 00:45:11.280 beating Spain either. They may also get shut out even 855 00:45:11.320 --> 00:45:15.559 with Lionel Messi. That's how good Spain is that defense. 856 00:45:16.000 --> 00:45:19.159 They're gonna shut down every great player in the world 857 00:45:19.239 --> 00:45:21.880 today and they're going to win this World Cup, which 858 00:45:21.880 --> 00:45:24.440 annoys the hell out of me because they've proven to 859 00:45:24.519 --> 00:45:28.239 be not a friend of the United States. I'm America first, 860 00:45:28.719 --> 00:45:32.199 certainly not a friend of Israel. So I'm not excited 861 00:45:32.280 --> 00:45:35.199 for Spain. I wasn't excited for France either, but I'm 862 00:45:35.239 --> 00:45:37.920 not excited for Spain. But they're gonna win. The whole thing. 863 00:45:38.039 --> 00:45:40.519 Doesn't matter who wins today. I do like Argentina today, 864 00:45:40.559 --> 00:45:43.079 but regardless, nobody's beating Spain. 865 00:45:43.320 --> 00:45:46.599 Nobody know I wanted him Bope against Messi. 866 00:45:46.880 --> 00:45:50.519 Of course they did. But Spain is too good. They 867 00:45:50.559 --> 00:45:52.880 are too good. And look, if England beats Messi today, 868 00:45:52.960 --> 00:45:55.159 then you don't get either one of the finals. We 869 00:45:55.320 --> 00:45:58.719 will talk to Andrew Giuliani coming up on Friday before 870 00:45:58.800 --> 00:46:01.679 the big one, the finals, which comes your way this 871 00:46:02.599 --> 00:46:07.119 Sunday from Giant Stadium, which they now cole MetLife Stadium. 872 00:46:07.239 --> 00:46:09.440 Will take a break when we get back. He's a 873 00:46:09.679 --> 00:46:13.840 tremendous He's not good, He's a tremendous city council member, 874 00:46:13.880 --> 00:46:16.559 one of the five Republicans, one of the two out 875 00:46:16.599 --> 00:46:19.360 of Staten Island, former colleague of ours. He's also a 876 00:46:19.519 --> 00:46:22.599 great radio guy, and he's got a lot to say about, 877 00:46:22.719 --> 00:46:26.800 specifically the mayor's definition of rape. 878 00:46:27.599 --> 00:46:31.159 Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple 879 00:46:31.360 --> 00:46:32.440 podcast network. 880 00:46:33.199 --> 00:46:35.880 I believe the NYPD when they put forward their numbers, 881 00:46:35.920 --> 00:46:38.480 what we're seeing are some of the lowest numbers that 882 00:46:38.480 --> 00:46:40.679 New York City has seen in recorded history, especially when 883 00:46:40.719 --> 00:46:42.800 it comes to murders and shootings. He's the lowest we've 884 00:46:42.800 --> 00:46:44.880 ever seen. And what I think is important to know 885 00:46:45.440 --> 00:46:47.880 is a lot of the increase in rape also comes 886 00:46:47.920 --> 00:46:50.599 from an expanded definition of what counts as rape, as 887 00:46:50.679 --> 00:46:55.039 well as survivors coming forward for acts that took place 888 00:46:55.199 --> 00:46:55.880 years prior. 889 00:46:56.079 --> 00:47:01.679 Rape is up exponentially, and they says, well, it really 890 00:47:01.760 --> 00:47:05.280 depends on how you define rape. Maybe he should ask 891 00:47:05.320 --> 00:47:07.800 his wife. She seems to enjoy it when Israeli girls 892 00:47:07.840 --> 00:47:11.039 get raped, maybe five at a time, gang bang by 893 00:47:11.239 --> 00:47:14.559 a bunch of terrorists and Hamas guys. Maybe he should 894 00:47:14.559 --> 00:47:18.559 ask his wife what constitutes rape. I don't know. He 895 00:47:18.800 --> 00:47:23.239 is the most disgusting person God ever created. I don't 896 00:47:23.280 --> 00:47:26.119 know how any of these media members get angry with me, 897 00:47:26.360 --> 00:47:29.320 but over this a million times, Errol Lewis, Katie Honan, 898 00:47:29.800 --> 00:47:32.880 even some of the real mainstays people I respect, the 899 00:47:32.960 --> 00:47:37.159 Marshall Kramer's, the Morgan McKay's. They never ask this guy 900 00:47:37.239 --> 00:47:40.199 a real question. Melissa Russo. Maybe every now and then, 901 00:47:40.320 --> 00:47:43.559 not often. You know, Michael Rappaport was very funny on 902 00:47:43.599 --> 00:47:46.360 this show yesterday. Let me go down there. I want 903 00:47:46.400 --> 00:47:48.960 to go down there. I want one of these stations 904 00:47:49.320 --> 00:47:52.880 to employ Sid Rosenberg for one day. One day. Let 905 00:47:53.000 --> 00:47:57.840 that communist run New York one Spectrum instead of Errol Lewis, 906 00:47:57.960 --> 00:48:01.320 that fat, stupid black racist sitting there with Mam Donnie 907 00:48:01.320 --> 00:48:05.320 every Thursday. Let me do it once. Your business is 908 00:48:05.360 --> 00:48:08.039 all about ratings. You do realize that, right you done? Bastards? 909 00:48:08.639 --> 00:48:11.039 Don't you think that Sid Rosenberg and Mam Donni would 910 00:48:11.039 --> 00:48:14.000 generate bigger ratings than Lewis and Mam Donnie. Now, look, 911 00:48:14.920 --> 00:48:16.760 I don't think I would even do it, because I'm 912 00:48:16.800 --> 00:48:18.239 not sure I could sit in the same room with 913 00:48:18.320 --> 00:48:22.320 that guy without beating him to a pulp. And yes 914 00:48:22.960 --> 00:48:26.079 that was just a physical, violent statement. I don't care. 915 00:48:26.679 --> 00:48:28.719 I don't think I can do it. I really don't. 916 00:48:29.199 --> 00:48:32.719 Frank Morano is one of our five Republican City Council members, 917 00:48:32.760 --> 00:48:34.679 you know the story, one of the two along with 918 00:48:34.760 --> 00:48:38.000 the great David Carr out of Staten Island and a 919 00:48:38.079 --> 00:48:41.559 tremendous radio guy as well. A former colleague, he joins 920 00:48:41.639 --> 00:48:45.119 us this morning, he's outraged about the mayor trying to 921 00:48:45.239 --> 00:48:47.920 redefine rape as well. So with that set prank, just 922 00:48:48.079 --> 00:48:51.719 take it away, Mam. Donnie's latest person. 923 00:48:51.639 --> 00:48:55.840 Said, I watched that answer three times because I genuinely 924 00:48:55.920 --> 00:48:58.119 couldn't believe that that was the answer the mayor of 925 00:48:58.199 --> 00:49:01.239 New York City chose to give, not on a subject 926 00:49:01.440 --> 00:49:05.880 like city steps or you know, welfare reform or something 927 00:49:05.960 --> 00:49:09.360 that maybe requires a little nuance or or some depth. 928 00:49:09.880 --> 00:49:12.239 It was a pretty cut and dry issue of rape 929 00:49:12.360 --> 00:49:15.960 in a post Me Too era. And he's ostensibly the 930 00:49:16.039 --> 00:49:17.920 leader of a political movement. 931 00:49:17.639 --> 00:49:21.039 That is very down with being woke and women's rights. 932 00:49:20.840 --> 00:49:24.079 And everything like that, not a movement that necessarily sees 933 00:49:24.119 --> 00:49:26.960 a lot of gray area when it comes to rape. 934 00:49:27.079 --> 00:49:28.800 I mean, this was eusy. 935 00:49:29.360 --> 00:49:32.199 If this was a Republican mayor or a politician of 936 00:49:32.280 --> 00:49:35.559 any type that gave this answer, forget about it. If 937 00:49:35.599 --> 00:49:39.159 that was Rudy Giuliani or Mike Bloomberg, they would have 938 00:49:39.480 --> 00:49:40.159 fulleyed him. 939 00:49:41.119 --> 00:49:43.320 This was about a politician. I got to tell you 940 00:49:43.559 --> 00:49:46.239 by went on the air and said that I'd be 941 00:49:46.320 --> 00:49:46.760 in trouble. 942 00:49:47.280 --> 00:49:49.960 Yeah, you've said a lot less severe things and gotten 943 00:49:50.039 --> 00:49:53.920 fulleyed for that. But I'll tell you, if more survivors 944 00:49:53.920 --> 00:49:55.280 are coming forward. 945 00:49:55.199 --> 00:49:56.199 That's a good thing. 946 00:49:57.039 --> 00:49:59.000 But the current that happened to them is not a 947 00:49:59.079 --> 00:50:04.320 good thing. And that's what the mayor totally failed to highlight. 948 00:50:04.400 --> 00:50:08.000 You don't spin rape statistics, you don't misoden them, you 949 00:50:08.559 --> 00:50:11.199 don't look for the sunny side. A survivor coming forward 950 00:50:11.280 --> 00:50:13.920 years later doesn't mean the rape didn't happen. It means 951 00:50:13.960 --> 00:50:17.480 we learned the predit later. The proper answer is, and 952 00:50:17.639 --> 00:50:19.440 this is not an answer that puts him in a 953 00:50:19.480 --> 00:50:20.880 bad light at all. If he would have given it 954 00:50:21.000 --> 00:50:23.760 is I'm deeply concerned. We're examining the numbers. We're going 955 00:50:23.840 --> 00:50:27.440 to protect women and bring predators to justice. Period's done, 956 00:50:27.880 --> 00:50:33.079 end of story. Instead, we got a sociology seminar this administration, 957 00:50:33.840 --> 00:50:36.599 and I think you know me, and I said this. 958 00:50:36.679 --> 00:50:39.199 Even before he was elected. I'm not looking to. 959 00:50:39.199 --> 00:50:41.599 Beat the guy up just to beat the guy up, right. 960 00:50:42.440 --> 00:50:46.039 I have no problem working with someone that I disagree 961 00:50:46.079 --> 00:50:48.280 with ninety nine percent of the time on the one 962 00:50:48.679 --> 00:50:51.800 issue that maybe we agree on. But this administration has 963 00:50:51.880 --> 00:50:59.119 this strange instinct Whenever New Yorkers identify disorder or crime, 964 00:50:59.480 --> 00:51:05.199 the first response is to explain why we're interpreting it incorrectly. 965 00:51:06.199 --> 00:51:09.920 Well, really, the first response really is to beat their 966 00:51:10.039 --> 00:51:13.880 chest and give out a couple of really favorable numbers. 967 00:51:14.280 --> 00:51:16.800 Which also I can go into those numbers like he 968 00:51:16.920 --> 00:51:18.239 did with the rape and do the same thing, but 969 00:51:18.320 --> 00:51:21.199 I choose not to. When it comes to shootings and murderers, 970 00:51:21.440 --> 00:51:28.079 that's their first response. We're doing great, except transit crime, right, 971 00:51:28.320 --> 00:51:30.920 except when somebody gets punched in the face on the subway, 972 00:51:31.239 --> 00:51:33.880 except when a Jewish person gets punched across the face, 973 00:51:34.159 --> 00:51:36.679 except when a young girl gets raped in a stairwell. 974 00:51:36.920 --> 00:51:38.360 Otherwise we're doing great. 975 00:51:39.079 --> 00:51:39.280 Yeah. 976 00:51:39.559 --> 00:51:42.559 The reporter there asked a very simple, very fair question, 977 00:51:42.800 --> 00:51:45.440 and the mayor gave what can only be described as 978 00:51:45.519 --> 00:51:46.519 a bizarre answer. 979 00:51:46.639 --> 00:51:47.679 So I don't need the mayor. 980 00:51:47.800 --> 00:51:49.599 I think bizarre is the wrong word. I would go. 981 00:51:49.920 --> 00:51:53.280 I would even say insensitive and downright grotesque. 982 00:51:54.159 --> 00:51:57.599 So I don't need a mayor or any politician to 983 00:51:57.719 --> 00:52:00.920 find the silver lining in rapes to t I need 984 00:52:01.039 --> 00:52:04.079 him to find the rapist fight. This is crazy, is 985 00:52:04.119 --> 00:52:08.119 an absolutely crazy situation. And I was glad the speaker 986 00:52:08.599 --> 00:52:12.239 called him out on her. You could tell that, you 987 00:52:12.320 --> 00:52:14.440 know she is getting she is getting his goat to 988 00:52:14.559 --> 00:52:15.039 some extent. 989 00:52:15.159 --> 00:52:17.639 No, there's no question about it. You know, when Hard 990 00:52:17.639 --> 00:52:20.519 and I had art difficulties, she was really and i'll 991 00:52:20.519 --> 00:52:24.559 say this, bending over backwards to appease him. She has 992 00:52:24.760 --> 00:52:26.920 not been doing that as of late. Whether it was 993 00:52:27.000 --> 00:52:29.800 me Vicky, she has not been doing that as of late. 994 00:52:29.960 --> 00:52:32.159 I mean it seems like and you too, You know, 995 00:52:32.280 --> 00:52:35.519 you guys are constantly from the budget to the lack 996 00:52:35.599 --> 00:52:38.199 of cops, no cops on the budget, no fifth by 997 00:52:38.239 --> 00:52:40.800 a fighter, to this thing with the rape to the horses. 998 00:52:41.079 --> 00:52:44.320 It seems like almost every day. Now Julie Mennon has 999 00:52:44.360 --> 00:52:46.920 an issue with the mayor. Now I didn't play her response, 1000 00:52:47.320 --> 00:52:49.519 but he can give me the monarch note version. What 1001 00:52:49.719 --> 00:52:54.199 exactly did she say in response to that awful, awful 1002 00:52:54.639 --> 00:52:56.320 description of rape by the mayor. 1003 00:52:56.920 --> 00:52:59.960 Well, first of all, that question came about and Dan Mannery. 1004 00:53:00.039 --> 00:53:02.840 You know from Picks asked it because she was making 1005 00:53:02.920 --> 00:53:06.199 such a big deal over the uptick in rape crimes 1006 00:53:06.519 --> 00:53:09.280 as a reason we need more cops, and then. 1007 00:53:09.440 --> 00:53:11.840 He asked the question. She gave that a bizarre response. 1008 00:53:12.480 --> 00:53:15.679 Not only did she, and by the way, not just her, 1009 00:53:15.800 --> 00:53:19.719 but many of our colleagues you have I know you 1010 00:53:20.320 --> 00:53:22.639 you and not without reason have said there's really not 1011 00:53:22.800 --> 00:53:25.880 much not no such thing as a conservative Democrat these days, 1012 00:53:25.960 --> 00:53:28.400 one at least as one in the city. Phil Wong, 1013 00:53:28.599 --> 00:53:32.000 who represents Bob Holden's old district, he certainly is a conservative. 1014 00:53:31.599 --> 00:53:34.280 Democrat and Bob Holden, but that matter. Bob Holden who 1015 00:53:34.280 --> 00:53:36.440 I talked to when I watched his tweets every day, 1016 00:53:36.440 --> 00:53:38.119 because I think he's a brilliant guy. He had our 1017 00:53:38.159 --> 00:53:40.639 issues during the Curtis run, but I really loved the guy. 1018 00:53:40.920 --> 00:53:43.039 Bob Holden was that guy. So it looks like Bill 1019 00:53:43.119 --> 00:53:45.639 Wane has continued Holden's legacy. 1020 00:53:45.360 --> 00:53:45.920 Is the mantle. 1021 00:53:46.559 --> 00:53:49.960 But he decried the mayor's response, and so did more 1022 00:53:50.079 --> 00:53:53.239 conventional establishment Democrats like Lynn Shulman and even some of 1023 00:53:53.280 --> 00:53:56.000 the liberal Democrats. There is nobody standing up for what 1024 00:53:56.079 --> 00:54:00.000 the mayor said. But basically, Julie said that in word 1025 00:54:00.239 --> 00:54:02.880 or substance, in not quoting hereat, but that it defies 1026 00:54:03.159 --> 00:54:06.400 any reasonable logic that the mayor. 1027 00:54:06.159 --> 00:54:08.199 Would choose to characterize Rapes that way. 1028 00:54:08.320 --> 00:54:12.079 And like you could almost give him a gimme if 1029 00:54:12.360 --> 00:54:16.280 he was handling every other aspect of his job well, 1030 00:54:16.719 --> 00:54:20.159 but honestly, everything that he is handling in this city 1031 00:54:20.440 --> 00:54:23.639 is turning to pot And you know, I heard you, 1032 00:54:23.840 --> 00:54:26.079 and maybe it was with Joe Bignigno the other day, 1033 00:54:26.119 --> 00:54:28.159 or maybe it was one of your monologues, talk about 1034 00:54:28.239 --> 00:54:31.039 how it takes time for the city to turn around 1035 00:54:31.360 --> 00:54:33.960 in both directions, on a positive level and in a 1036 00:54:34.199 --> 00:54:38.000 negative direction. We are setting this city up for failure 1037 00:54:38.239 --> 00:54:42.199 in so many different areas. I heard you know, you know, 1038 00:54:42.480 --> 00:54:45.840 your terrific interview with Vicky yesterday and they talked about 1039 00:54:45.880 --> 00:54:48.679 the you guys talked about the little Litaly debacle. I mean, 1040 00:54:48.760 --> 00:54:52.519 that's just one, one minor example, which ultimately doesn't affect 1041 00:54:52.840 --> 00:54:55.119 many people's lives, but it says a lot about the 1042 00:54:55.199 --> 00:54:58.320 mayor's character. He doesn't view himself as a cheerleader for 1043 00:54:58.440 --> 00:55:00.840 New York City. He doesn't view himself as a mayor 1044 00:55:00.880 --> 00:55:03.119 that represents all New Yorkers and if you look at 1045 00:55:03.159 --> 00:55:07.000 how he's handling homelessness, the way that he's handling homelessness, 1046 00:55:07.039 --> 00:55:10.000 whether it's in Manhattan, Brooklyn or Staten Island, that has 1047 00:55:10.119 --> 00:55:13.519 the opportunity to set us back to the pre Giuliani 1048 00:55:13.639 --> 00:55:17.679 era more than almost anything any mayor's ever done. Take 1049 00:55:17.719 --> 00:55:20.000 a look at what's going on at the Intrepid. If 1050 00:55:20.039 --> 00:55:23.400 you walk outside of the Intrepid, there's this homeless encampment. 1051 00:55:23.480 --> 00:55:27.280 The Post has been covering it. It stretches twelve blocks. 1052 00:55:27.000 --> 00:55:28.559 On the west side, twelve blocks. 1053 00:55:29.519 --> 00:55:31.679 There's tense, there's open drug that's. 1054 00:55:31.639 --> 00:55:35.079 Like Los Angeles. That's like Los Angeles, Frank, Yeah. 1055 00:55:35.320 --> 00:55:36.440 And police. 1056 00:55:37.599 --> 00:55:42.039 Had to intervene yesterday over an illegal electricity hookup. The 1057 00:55:42.119 --> 00:55:47.400 homeless are setting up tamps and with electricity. And this 1058 00:55:47.599 --> 00:55:51.280 is what happens when compassion gets divorced from common. 1059 00:55:51.679 --> 00:55:54.480 Listen enough with the Compassion. I'm sorry, not on this show, 1060 00:55:54.599 --> 00:55:56.519 save it for all the shows on this station. They 1061 00:55:56.599 --> 00:55:59.440 talk about that I put my son on a subway. 1062 00:55:59.480 --> 00:56:02.039 We have just back from Boca Raton, Florida, and New 1063 00:56:02.119 --> 00:56:04.559 York is scary enough, and we had to take Gabriel 1064 00:56:04.599 --> 00:56:06.400 to school one day on the subway. He was about 1065 00:56:06.440 --> 00:56:09.760 seven years old and some guy pushed him, tried to 1066 00:56:09.800 --> 00:56:13.320 physically harm him. Some other guy was naked, and you know, 1067 00:56:13.559 --> 00:56:17.239 he didn't get he didn't. There wasn't a crime committed necessarily, 1068 00:56:17.840 --> 00:56:20.760 but it scored that kid for life. And when you 1069 00:56:20.840 --> 00:56:23.639 walk past some crazy homeless guy in New York City 1070 00:56:24.039 --> 00:56:26.440 and he starts yelling and screaming or cursing, and he 1071 00:56:26.599 --> 00:56:30.119 smells and looks terrible, that is not just some you know, 1072 00:56:30.239 --> 00:56:32.320 some innocent guy. I know some of them were with 1073 00:56:32.480 --> 00:56:35.079 service people and Vietnam and all that stuff. I get it. 1074 00:56:35.559 --> 00:56:37.920 But it has gotten to the point where these people 1075 00:56:38.239 --> 00:56:41.559 on the streets of New York City absolutely play a 1076 00:56:41.719 --> 00:56:46.159 role in lessening the quality of life. It's enough, with compassion, 1077 00:56:46.440 --> 00:56:48.519 get these people off the goddamn streets. 1078 00:56:48.679 --> 00:56:51.760 Well, and you know what, it's also for that former 1079 00:56:51.840 --> 00:56:54.800 serviceman that's now homeless because he's dealing with drug issues 1080 00:56:55.119 --> 00:56:58.159 or mental illness. It's not compassionate to the homeless person 1081 00:56:58.280 --> 00:57:01.480 living in a tent surrounded by rugs and filth. It's 1082 00:57:01.519 --> 00:57:03.480 also to your point about quality of life. 1083 00:57:03.320 --> 00:57:03.840 For everybody else. 1084 00:57:03.880 --> 00:57:06.280 It's not compassionate to the bus driver who's got to 1085 00:57:06.360 --> 00:57:09.519 work there, or the family taking their kid to the intrepid. 1086 00:57:10.079 --> 00:57:14.239 And it's especially absurd to the taxpayers who are spending billions, 1087 00:57:14.360 --> 00:57:15.679 billions with a b of. 1088 00:57:15.800 --> 00:57:19.000 Dollars on a shelter and social servicesm. 1089 00:57:18.639 --> 00:57:21.599 Only to be told that a twelve block encampment is 1090 00:57:21.679 --> 00:57:22.719 somehow inevitable. 1091 00:57:22.840 --> 00:57:26.599 Right, but that's Manhattan. So that's the twelve block in Manhattan. 1092 00:57:26.639 --> 00:57:28.199 I know you listen to the very beginning of the 1093 00:57:28.239 --> 00:57:30.239 show because you love that. You said that all these 1094 00:57:30.719 --> 00:57:33.320 and all the big video confess lady, thank you, thank you. 1095 00:57:33.599 --> 00:57:36.159 So I did play the video of Ena Vernakov out 1096 00:57:36.199 --> 00:57:38.559 of Brooklyn and hook Car talking about what's going on, 1097 00:57:38.679 --> 00:57:41.360 and she said, Bay in this company, I guess that's 1098 00:57:41.440 --> 00:57:46.400 behind this potential shelter. They're being investigated. And mamdannie still 1099 00:57:46.440 --> 00:57:49.079 gave a couple one hundred million dollars. Is that right? 1100 00:57:50.039 --> 00:57:52.960 Well more or less? Yeah, I mean Inan is totally right. 1101 00:57:53.119 --> 00:57:55.719 And this story ort to terrify every neighborhood in New 1102 00:57:55.760 --> 00:57:58.440 York City because the issue isn't whether homeless people deserve help. 1103 00:57:58.519 --> 00:58:01.079 Of course they do, right where a compassionate city, even 1104 00:58:01.159 --> 00:58:03.199 if even if we won't be when you're mayor. But 1105 00:58:03.320 --> 00:58:07.039 the issue is whether city hall can fundamentally transform a 1106 00:58:07.280 --> 00:58:10.159 residential neighborhood, which is what Sheep said, Bay is with 1107 00:58:10.360 --> 00:58:14.679 virtually no meaningful community input. They're taking out families and 1108 00:58:14.880 --> 00:58:19.039 bringing in one hundred and ten single adult men. The 1109 00:58:19.159 --> 00:58:23.320 city says it's not even conducting criminal background vetting. 1110 00:58:23.719 --> 00:58:25.039 Across the street from. 1111 00:58:24.960 --> 00:58:26.559 Where that the shelter is going to be, where the 1112 00:58:26.639 --> 00:58:29.119 gold Star in or the yeah, the gold Star in 1113 00:58:30.239 --> 00:58:32.559 the city. Across the street is a park that's used 1114 00:58:32.559 --> 00:58:35.800 by children. How does a government look parents in the 1115 00:58:35.920 --> 00:58:39.039 eye and say, don't worry, we deliberately chose not to 1116 00:58:39.159 --> 00:58:43.400 find out who we're placing here. Vetting isn't demonizing the 1117 00:58:43.480 --> 00:58:46.320 homeless or anybody. Vetting is just basic competence. And I 1118 00:58:46.440 --> 00:58:49.280 keep saying this because in our district in Staten Island, 1119 00:58:49.280 --> 00:58:52.599 they're doing the same thing. We're living version of it 1120 00:58:52.719 --> 00:58:56.719 on arthur Kill Road. Communities learn about these decisions after 1121 00:58:56.880 --> 00:59:00.519 this bureaucracy has already is the side I did what. 1122 00:59:00.599 --> 00:59:01.280 It's going to do. 1123 00:59:01.880 --> 00:59:04.000 You know what I would do. I would not only 1124 00:59:04.119 --> 00:59:08.159 not close Rikers Island, I'd build new housing on Rikers Island, 1125 00:59:08.480 --> 00:59:11.559 and I'd put three groups of people on Rikers Island. 1126 00:59:11.599 --> 00:59:14.880 I mean this Obviously, the criminals, they need to be there, Okay, 1127 00:59:14.960 --> 00:59:19.000 not in my neighborhood. Secondly, I would put illegals somewhere 1128 00:59:19.039 --> 00:59:22.920 else on Rikers Island, and the homeless. You got acres 1129 00:59:23.000 --> 00:59:26.519 and acres and acres and acres of land. Take all 1130 00:59:26.599 --> 00:59:30.639 three of those groups, the criminals, the illegals, and the homeless, 1131 00:59:31.239 --> 00:59:34.280 and build more housing and put them on Rikers Island. 1132 00:59:34.440 --> 00:59:38.280 Keep all those people away from law abiding citizens like USh. 1133 00:59:38.400 --> 00:59:41.280 Let me get to the minorities. This battle over specialty 1134 00:59:41.360 --> 00:59:45.000 programs in schools. Both of my kids went through the 1135 00:59:45.199 --> 00:59:48.280 public school system in New York and it nearly ruined 1136 00:59:48.320 --> 00:59:50.519 both of them. Thank God, even Gabriel are smart kids. 1137 00:59:50.559 --> 00:59:53.079 I've got great parents. But it really did nearly ruin 1138 00:59:53.159 --> 00:59:56.679 both of them. Here's another issue with this mayor education. 1139 00:59:57.079 --> 00:59:58.719 What's going on with that brank. 1140 00:59:59.480 --> 01:00:02.760 Well, So yesterday and numbers came out. So New York 1141 01:00:02.840 --> 01:00:06.320 City has a few of the very best public schools, 1142 01:00:06.400 --> 01:00:09.880 not just in the country, but the world. Stuyvesant Bronx 1143 01:00:09.960 --> 01:00:13.199 High School of Science, Brooklyn Tech right in the world, right, 1144 01:00:13.400 --> 01:00:16.639 And I think John Katsintitis went to Brooklyn Tech. So 1145 01:00:16.800 --> 01:00:21.800 my dad said, my brother, great school. No, I think 1146 01:00:21.880 --> 01:00:26.519 he went to Fordham Prepp. Sure he didn't make it 1147 01:00:26.559 --> 01:00:31.440 to Brooklyn Tech. I mean, okay, but so now you 1148 01:00:31.559 --> 01:00:33.360 have to take a test to get in there. And 1149 01:00:34.280 --> 01:00:38.239 the numbers came out yesterday that there's a very small 1150 01:00:38.360 --> 01:00:42.800 portion of black New Yorkers that that were admitted. Right, 1151 01:00:43.800 --> 01:00:47.000 And instead of saying, all right, how do we get 1152 01:00:47.119 --> 01:00:49.719 more black and Hispanic students to get to a point 1153 01:00:49.760 --> 01:00:52.880 where they can pass the test? Now Mom, Donnie and 1154 01:00:53.239 --> 01:00:57.400 all of the social justice advocates are talking about how 1155 01:00:57.440 --> 01:01:01.159 can we again dismantle this tests? 1156 01:01:01.239 --> 01:01:04.239 So this is crazy. 1157 01:01:04.360 --> 01:01:07.599 The most interesting person in the time story on this 1158 01:01:07.719 --> 01:01:11.199 today wasn't Mamdani, but it was a retired black math 1159 01:01:11.239 --> 01:01:15.079 and engineering teacher from Brooklyn Tech named sam Atawomi. He 1160 01:01:15.159 --> 01:01:17.199 went to Brooklyn Tech himself in the eighties. He grew 1161 01:01:17.320 --> 01:01:18.880 up in the South Bronx, and he said his middle 1162 01:01:18.920 --> 01:01:21.760 school teachers told him about the specialized high schools. They 1163 01:01:21.840 --> 01:01:24.320 prepared him for the test, and three other kids from 1164 01:01:24.360 --> 01:01:26.280 his eighth grade class went to Brooklyn Tech with him. 1165 01:01:26.519 --> 01:01:29.880 His explanation today in the papers is that middle schools 1166 01:01:29.960 --> 01:01:33.079 don't make that a priority anymore because many of them 1167 01:01:33.119 --> 01:01:36.079 are struggling just to get kids to pass the state test. 1168 01:01:36.639 --> 01:01:39.440 That's the whole debate. So the New York City school 1169 01:01:39.480 --> 01:01:42.679 system is failing to prepare black and Hispanic kids for 1170 01:01:42.719 --> 01:01:46.159 a rigorous exam, and the solution is to get rid 1171 01:01:46.199 --> 01:01:49.440 of the exam. That's what the mayor in these advocates 1172 01:01:49.639 --> 01:01:53.199 want the sahsat, which is what they call that test, 1173 01:01:53.280 --> 01:01:55.760 the specialized high school you know exam. They may be 1174 01:01:56.079 --> 01:01:59.519 revealing inequality, but that doesn't mean the test created the 1175 01:01:59.679 --> 01:02:04.960 equal No Markidani says, one test doesn't measure apptitude. Okay, 1176 01:02:05.000 --> 01:02:08.280 I agree, but no test measures the totality of a 1177 01:02:08.360 --> 01:02:11.480 human being. The question is whether this test measures the 1178 01:02:11.599 --> 01:02:14.400 academic skills necessary to succeed in some of the most 1179 01:02:14.480 --> 01:02:18.159 rigorous high schools in America. These schools are able to 1180 01:02:18.320 --> 01:02:22.800 take one generation of immigrants who come here impoverished and 1181 01:02:23.000 --> 01:02:28.199 turn them into wealthy lawyers, doctors, generals, radio station owners 1182 01:02:28.320 --> 01:02:31.800 like John Katzimatid's health insurance executives like my dad. 1183 01:02:31.840 --> 01:02:33.360 These were people that who are poor. 1184 01:02:33.280 --> 01:02:36.480 In working class and because of the education that they 1185 01:02:36.559 --> 01:02:39.199 got at these specialized high schools, they're able to be 1186 01:02:39.400 --> 01:02:42.559 really successful people. And to the mayor to say, we 1187 01:02:42.679 --> 01:02:45.840 want to destroy these schools by destroying the test. Why 1188 01:02:45.920 --> 01:02:50.119 because too many Chinese people get in. Sorry, help these kids, 1189 01:02:50.159 --> 01:02:52.320 Help these blacknesspanic kids pass the test. 1190 01:02:52.719 --> 01:02:55.719 Yeah, how about competing with the Asian kids who are 1191 01:02:55.960 --> 01:02:59.360 homedoing math and science while our kids are doing half 1192 01:02:59.480 --> 01:03:01.960 naked dan is on TikTok is that the Asians? Paul, 1193 01:03:02.239 --> 01:03:04.519 let's dump down all of our tests and make sure 1194 01:03:04.559 --> 01:03:07.800 that i'm Aronic kids can compete. M Donnie's an asshole. 1195 01:03:07.960 --> 01:03:09.679 That's the bottom line. I can't say it any better 1196 01:03:09.719 --> 01:03:11.480 than that. But you, I'm going to say to you 1197 01:03:11.639 --> 01:03:14.360 the same thing I said to Vicki Patadino yesterday. You 1198 01:03:14.519 --> 01:03:18.719 are too smart and too good. You've already you've already 1199 01:03:19.119 --> 01:03:21.559 outlived the city council. I need you to want with 1200 01:03:21.679 --> 01:03:23.920 something bigger. What do you mean that, Frank? I think 1201 01:03:23.960 --> 01:03:26.159 I think you're brilliant. I think you're brilliant. I really do. 1202 01:03:26.360 --> 01:03:28.559 On Staten Island, we're very blessed to have a lot 1203 01:03:28.639 --> 01:03:32.519 of very good elected officials Queen's you know, Vicky would 1204 01:03:32.519 --> 01:03:35.199 be much more a greater improvement over John lou the 1205 01:03:35.239 --> 01:03:38.760 state senator there, and obviously she and the borough president 1206 01:03:38.800 --> 01:03:41.400 the term limited there. She'd be great there, But you know, 1207 01:03:42.679 --> 01:03:44.719 we're very lucky to have a great congress person, and 1208 01:03:44.800 --> 01:03:48.280 Nicole Maya talks a great stanator in Andy Lanza. But honestly, 1209 01:03:48.960 --> 01:03:51.239 if you could see the crazy bills that some of 1210 01:03:51.320 --> 01:03:54.239 my colleagues in the city council, you know, bring up 1211 01:03:54.280 --> 01:03:56.239 on a regular basis, and some of the things that 1212 01:03:56.400 --> 01:03:58.280 the mayor's officer are doing. 1213 01:03:58.159 --> 01:03:59.800 We didn't even get into. Maybe we do it next time. 1214 01:03:59.840 --> 01:04:04.559 The the Department of Education contracting scandal where this school's chancellor, 1215 01:04:04.639 --> 01:04:07.880 Kamarael Samuels he may turn out to be the shortest 1216 01:04:07.920 --> 01:04:12.159 tenured schools chancellor since Mike Bloomberg picked Kathy Black because 1217 01:04:13.239 --> 01:04:17.880 the amount of stone walling and lack of transparency about 1218 01:04:18.199 --> 01:04:20.679 how these contracts are given out. I'm sure you saw 1219 01:04:20.760 --> 01:04:22.400 the story, but maybe you already might have missed it. 1220 01:04:22.679 --> 01:04:25.639 They had a vendor that they had in schools that 1221 01:04:25.800 --> 01:04:31.480 basically they encouraged the vendor to break the rules or 1222 01:04:31.519 --> 01:04:33.880 at least bend the rules about how they were billing 1223 01:04:33.960 --> 01:04:36.840 the city so that they could get paid. And on 1224 01:04:37.000 --> 01:04:40.039 top of that, they found that a school that was 1225 01:04:40.239 --> 01:04:43.960 a teacher that was dismissed for doing all sorts of 1226 01:04:44.039 --> 01:04:47.119 wacky things with students was back in a school through 1227 01:04:47.199 --> 01:04:50.320 the vendor, no vetting and anything at all. And we've 1228 01:04:50.360 --> 01:04:52.960 asked Julie Mennon and the council have asked repeatedly about 1229 01:04:53.280 --> 01:04:56.360 how these contracts are awarded, how the procurement process has 1230 01:04:56.800 --> 01:04:59.760 been given out, and we've gotten no answers at all. 1231 01:05:00.559 --> 01:05:03.320 And only yesterday, when the mayor was threatened with a 1232 01:05:03.360 --> 01:05:04.960 subpoena did he say that they're going. 1233 01:05:04.960 --> 01:05:05.760 To be looking into it. 1234 01:05:05.920 --> 01:05:08.280 So there's a lot going wrong with the city. And 1235 01:05:08.320 --> 01:05:11.119 I think it may sound silly to people that think 1236 01:05:11.159 --> 01:05:14.400 that the city Council is just a silly place to be, 1237 01:05:14.519 --> 01:05:17.159 but there's a lot of need for oversight and there's 1238 01:05:17.199 --> 01:05:19.440 a lot of need for fighting the good fight on 1239 01:05:19.559 --> 01:05:21.119 the city council. You know, you were kind of enough 1240 01:05:21.159 --> 01:05:23.480 to mention my radio career, and I miss being on 1241 01:05:23.519 --> 01:05:25.480 the radio very much, and that's why I'm so grateful 1242 01:05:25.519 --> 01:05:28.280 when you give me these opportunities. But you know, it 1243 01:05:28.440 --> 01:05:31.119 was a very difficult decision to walk away from a 1244 01:05:31.199 --> 01:05:33.679 show that I really enjoyed doing number one, but was 1245 01:05:34.159 --> 01:05:37.119 really growing in the ratings and affiliates and revenue and 1246 01:05:37.280 --> 01:05:39.440 all the ways that we measure radio success. And I 1247 01:05:39.480 --> 01:05:42.760 wouldn't be doing this and working eighteen hours a day, 1248 01:05:42.880 --> 01:05:45.559 literally maybe more if I didn't think that I could 1249 01:05:46.000 --> 01:05:48.199 move the needle forward and move the ball forward in 1250 01:05:48.280 --> 01:05:51.039 a positive way. And we're trying to deliver for veterans. 1251 01:05:51.039 --> 01:05:52.679 I'm doing that as the chair of the Veterans Committee 1252 01:05:52.679 --> 01:05:53.960 and trying to do a lot of other good things. 1253 01:05:54.039 --> 01:05:57.239 So I appreciate the endorsement for a future office, but 1254 01:05:57.440 --> 01:06:01.639 I'm very content to stay here and battle the battle 1255 01:06:01.719 --> 01:06:03.400 the crazies as best as we can. 1256 01:06:03.719 --> 01:06:06.480 Well, God bless you, and no disrespect anybody on the 1257 01:06:06.559 --> 01:06:09.000 air now or prior, but we've never really replaced you. 1258 01:06:09.559 --> 01:06:12.559 No one can we.

I don't know that there's 1275 01:06:52.760 --> 01:06:57.079 another local radio show that to talk about the biggest 1276 01:06:57.199 --> 01:07:00.679 story in the country, the Lindsey Graham situation, and could 1277 01:07:00.719 --> 01:07:04.559 get the second most newsworthy person on the planet, which 1278 01:07:04.639 --> 01:07:08.599 is Benjamin nettan Yahoo, to come on that show and 1279 01:07:08.760 --> 01:07:11.239 talk about it and do so with a level of 1280 01:07:11.360 --> 01:07:13.840 candor that I haven't really heard him express anywhere else. 1281 01:07:13.920 --> 01:07:16.599 You know, this is the only show where on any 1282 01:07:16.679 --> 01:07:21.800 given day you could hear the President or Ertawan or 1283 01:07:21.920 --> 01:07:26.639 Joe Benigno or you know, or like Daryl Strawberry. Like, 1284 01:07:26.719 --> 01:07:29.800 there's just no telling what will happen on this show 1285 01:07:29.880 --> 01:07:31.559 any given in the day. And it's one of the 1286 01:07:31.599 --> 01:07:33.679 reasons that I think people are afraid to tune out. 1287 01:07:33.880 --> 01:07:36.119 Thank you, Buddy, Strawberry will be on this show, fatties, 1288 01:07:36.159 --> 01:07:39.960 see enough, Yeah, Strawberry one is going to be a 1289 01:07:40.000 --> 01:07:41.719 tough one, but we'll see what we can do.

We have a lot more great 1296 01:07:51.840 --> 01:07:52.719 guys to come today. 1297 01:07:53.519 --> 01:07:57.039 Sid and Friends in the morning on the Red Apple 1298 01:07:57.199 --> 01:07:58.320 Podcast Network. 1299 01:07:59.239 --> 01:08:02.280 Another issue in this city is happening in a neighborhood 1300 01:08:02.400 --> 01:08:05.079 very close to where me and luwar You go from 1301 01:08:05.119 --> 01:08:08.119 our neighborhood to broad Channel. We love Marty Penny and 1302 01:08:08.159 --> 01:08:11.840 Adrians to Howard Beach, I love Joe, Lenny's love them. 1303 01:08:12.280 --> 01:08:14.519 I love Benny and Joe at the Vino's a bunch 1304 01:08:14.559 --> 01:08:17.560 of restaurants there. And it turns out in Howard Beach, 1305 01:08:17.680 --> 01:08:21.119 Jen Dolanzo best Botox in New York City, turns out 1306 01:08:21.119 --> 01:08:26.840 they're stealing statues, religious statues off the lawns. How is 1307 01:08:26.880 --> 01:08:30.920 that possible? So we played a cut yesterday from Phyllis 1308 01:08:31.039 --> 01:08:33.960 in Sirillo. She happens to be the chief of staff 1309 01:08:34.239 --> 01:08:38.159 for our councilwoman Joanne Ariola. Maybe she'll be next, that's 1310 01:08:38.199 --> 01:08:42.000 the rumor. I don't know but Phyllis reached out and 1311 01:08:42.199 --> 01:08:45.960 she's on right now from Howard Beach. Our friend Phyllis Phyllis, 1312 01:08:46.000 --> 01:08:46.800 good morning, how are you? 1313 01:08:47.600 --> 01:08:48.119 Good morning? 1314 01:08:48.159 --> 01:08:49.319 Said thanks so much for having me. 1315 01:08:49.640 --> 01:08:51.840 Nice to have you. We did play your cut yesterday. 1316 01:08:51.880 --> 01:08:53.880 At first I thought it was Joanne Ariola, then I 1317 01:08:54.000 --> 01:08:57.279 realized it was you. But it seems like that's a 1318 01:08:57.319 --> 01:09:02.399 big issue in Howard Beach. People's stealing religious statues off 1319 01:09:02.479 --> 01:09:06.000 the lawns. Have you made any progress in finding these scumbags? 1320 01:09:07.000 --> 01:09:09.399 So there is a person of interest for these statues 1321 01:09:09.439 --> 01:09:11.640 in Herod Beach as well as in our neighboring community 1322 01:09:11.640 --> 01:09:15.359 of Ozone Park. The police are seeking out this person, 1323 01:09:15.520 --> 01:09:18.000 so we're hopefully going to have an arrest on that soon. 1324 01:09:18.399 --> 01:09:21.159 But more importantly, I think is the fact that people 1325 01:09:21.239 --> 01:09:24.520 have no problems stealing, you know, Catholic statues and symbols 1326 01:09:24.600 --> 01:09:27.560 of Christianity. Throughout New York City. We're seeing an uptick 1327 01:09:27.920 --> 01:09:30.840 in attacks on churches. We just had an attack on 1328 01:09:30.960 --> 01:09:34.359 a church, a molotov cocktail bombing on a church at 1329 01:09:34.399 --> 01:09:37.039 Ozone Park, and then a Jehovah Witness church and what Haven. 1330 01:09:37.960 --> 01:09:40.720 And we're seeing statues being stolen from churches in Rockaway 1331 01:09:41.079 --> 01:09:43.000 and now right in front of our own homes. So 1332 01:09:43.560 --> 01:09:46.039 you know, we'd like to see a bigger voice coming 1333 01:09:46.119 --> 01:09:48.920 from the diocese on this. We haven't seen any you know, 1334 01:09:49.640 --> 01:09:52.960 show of force within the communities where it's happening from 1335 01:09:53.000 --> 01:09:54.880 the bishop. And I'm just wondering where he is. 1336 01:09:55.520 --> 01:09:57.520 I mean, I guess and I don't know this, but 1337 01:09:57.760 --> 01:10:00.600 Cardinal Dolan he would have been all over this. But 1338 01:10:00.720 --> 01:10:03.199 the new guy, Ronald Hicks, he's given you nothing. 1339 01:10:03.119 --> 01:10:06.159 Right, nothing Nothing from the arch diocese, nothing from the 1340 01:10:06.199 --> 01:10:09.279 Brooklyn Diocese. And you know, it's concerning when you have, 1341 01:10:09.600 --> 01:10:11.359 especially in the community like Howard Beach. I am the 1342 01:10:11.399 --> 01:10:14.199 Howard Beach and the Wood Civic President here in Howard Beach, 1343 01:10:14.279 --> 01:10:17.439 and you know, we are a large Catholic community here 1344 01:10:17.960 --> 01:10:21.319 and we're not seeing anything from our leadership of the church. 1345 01:10:21.479 --> 01:10:23.359 Terrible. See in the good old days, and I know 1346 01:10:23.399 --> 01:10:26.000 you're gonna be uncomfortable with this, but tough. In the 1347 01:10:26.079 --> 01:10:28.079 good old days, we wouldn't leave it up to the church. 1348 01:10:28.680 --> 01:10:31.000 There was a guy named Gotti. There's still guys there 1349 01:10:31.039 --> 01:10:34.279 who live there right now. I know some that they 1350 01:10:34.319 --> 01:10:36.720 would do the job we need to be done. I 1351 01:10:36.840 --> 01:10:38.960 know that we all try to sell the mob doesn't 1352 01:10:38.960 --> 01:10:40.119 exist anymore. Nonsense. 1353 01:10:40.159 --> 01:10:40.439 It does. 1354 01:10:40.960 --> 01:10:42.760 But in the good old days in Howard Beach, you know, 1355 01:10:42.920 --> 01:10:45.319 this would have been over already, right, The statues would 1356 01:10:45.319 --> 01:10:48.279 be right back on the lawn and somebody would be home, Dad. 1357 01:10:48.640 --> 01:10:50.840 That's a fact, you know that, right fellas well. 1358 01:10:50.960 --> 01:10:52.960 The thing is that we do have great leadership here, 1359 01:10:53.039 --> 01:10:55.760 Thank god, we have Council memor Aiola. Our civic is 1360 01:10:55.920 --> 01:10:58.119 very strong in the area and when you come through 1361 01:10:58.159 --> 01:11:00.159 Howard Beach you know that it's a strong peacher out 1362 01:11:00.199 --> 01:11:02.439 of community. We have people like Eddie Earle, who's our 1363 01:11:02.520 --> 01:11:05.600 neighborhood flagman, you know, hanging hundreds of flags. He's in 1364 01:11:05.640 --> 01:11:08.880 the seventies, climbing up on a ladder, you know, every 1365 01:11:08.960 --> 01:11:11.279 spring to make sure the community is full of flags. 1366 01:11:11.640 --> 01:11:14.960 And our civic does so many events to promote patriotism. 1367 01:11:15.039 --> 01:11:17.479 We actually have a Columbus Day festival as well, right 1368 01:11:17.520 --> 01:11:20.399 by Saint Helen's Church. We host the local feast here 1369 01:11:20.479 --> 01:11:22.960 in Howard Beach at Saint Helens. So there are people 1370 01:11:23.000 --> 01:11:25.920 that are pushing back. We have advocates here and we're 1371 01:11:25.960 --> 01:11:29.000 going to make sure that we hold them accountable. And 1372 01:11:29.159 --> 01:11:32.479 we have a great captain at the one oh six Priestinct, 1373 01:11:32.520 --> 01:11:36.520 Captain Derris, and our community affairs officers Detective Jaffe and 1374 01:11:36.680 --> 01:11:39.760 Officer Carr, who are in constant contact with us about 1375 01:11:39.800 --> 01:11:42.880 this and making sure that they are going to hold 1376 01:11:43.119 --> 01:11:44.960 this guy accountable when they find him. 1377 01:11:45.119 --> 01:11:48.560 Now, this guy, white guy, black eye, it matters what 1378 01:11:48.640 --> 01:11:49.239 does he look like. 1379 01:11:50.600 --> 01:11:52.800 So from the images that I saw from cameras, it 1380 01:11:52.840 --> 01:11:54.439 seems like it's a white guy. But I have no 1381 01:11:54.560 --> 01:11:56.880 idea of his background or you know, what he's about. 1382 01:11:57.079 --> 01:12:00.479 Let me get into our neighborhoods because when I growing 1383 01:12:00.560 --> 01:12:04.359 up bay Ridge strong Italian, I guess it kind of 1384 01:12:04.439 --> 01:12:06.199 still is. You know, I don't know. There's a lot 1385 01:12:06.239 --> 01:12:09.399 of Muslims there, I'm being honest. Benson Hurst, same thing. 1386 01:12:09.439 --> 01:12:12.600 A lot of Koreans and Asians there now O Zone Park, 1387 01:12:13.279 --> 01:12:15.520 Arthur Revenue and the Bronx and Howard Beach. I mean, 1388 01:12:15.600 --> 01:12:19.279 you guys an Italian stronghold. And I've got restaurant owners 1389 01:12:19.319 --> 01:12:22.039 who say to me, SID they're about to build mosques 1390 01:12:22.319 --> 01:12:24.039 in Howard Beach. Are going come on, I know, O 1391 01:12:24.239 --> 01:12:27.039 Zone Park, but Howard Beach. Is there any truth to that? 1392 01:12:28.199 --> 01:12:29.880 No? I mean I know that you and I discussed 1393 01:12:29.880 --> 01:12:32.760 that yesterday. There's no moss being built on Cross Si 1394 01:12:32.920 --> 01:12:35.760 Bouvard and Howard Beach. But what I can tell you 1395 01:12:35.920 --> 01:12:38.159 is that we are still a strong Italian community. We 1396 01:12:38.239 --> 01:12:41.039 have lots of neighbors from all different facets of life, 1397 01:12:41.119 --> 01:12:44.000 and we all live together in harmony here. There are 1398 01:12:44.039 --> 01:12:48.000 no issues throughout our community. And this particular person doesn't 1399 01:12:48.000 --> 01:12:50.520 even live in Howard Beach that came to fight to. 1400 01:12:50.560 --> 01:12:51.279 Steal the statues. 1401 01:12:51.279 --> 01:12:53.399 That's hugely the case. Yeah, that's hugely the case. So 1402 01:12:53.439 --> 01:12:55.720 I would imagine, you, guys, if there're still a very 1403 01:12:55.800 --> 01:12:58.840 strong Italian community and a lot of Italians that live there, 1404 01:12:58.880 --> 01:13:01.960 from Gendlanzo TOI Marino to you to join, I would 1405 01:13:02.000 --> 01:13:06.399 imagine that when this mayor, this repulsive, disgusting racist mayor 1406 01:13:07.000 --> 01:13:10.760 left little Italy and author revenue in the bronx of 1407 01:13:10.920 --> 01:13:13.880 the immigration on played map, I would hope at least 1408 01:13:13.920 --> 01:13:15.399 and Howard Beats was furious. 1409 01:13:16.399 --> 01:13:19.079 Everybody here was furious, you know, everybody was posting online 1410 01:13:19.079 --> 01:13:21.279 about it. And what we did was we took action 1411 01:13:21.439 --> 01:13:25.159 right away with the council Member's office and Council Member Morano, 1412 01:13:25.199 --> 01:13:27.680 who we love. They are the two chairs of the 1413 01:13:27.960 --> 01:13:32.079 Italian Caucus. They put up a post. Immediately we contacted 1414 01:13:32.119 --> 01:13:35.760 the Mayor's office and immediately he backtracked and said, oh wait, wait, wait, 1415 01:13:35.840 --> 01:13:38.600 this is from the prior administration. We're going to put 1416 01:13:38.600 --> 01:13:40.880 Little Italy back on the map. But more so than that, 1417 01:13:41.039 --> 01:13:43.079 we are going to be pending a letter to the 1418 01:13:43.159 --> 01:13:46.159 mayor adding other communities besides just a little ly. I 1419 01:13:46.239 --> 01:13:48.840 understand that there is in you know, a large group 1420 01:13:48.880 --> 01:13:51.640 of Italian immigrants living in Little Italy at the time, 1421 01:13:51.720 --> 01:13:54.079 but we can't erase the fact that it was a 1422 01:13:54.199 --> 01:13:57.439 backbone of the city in its time, and now we 1423 01:13:57.560 --> 01:14:00.000 do have areas where there are large groups of Italian 1424 01:14:00.279 --> 01:14:02.960 still living together. And we want to make sure that 1425 01:14:03.319 --> 01:14:05.239 our history is not a race and our culture is 1426 01:14:05.319 --> 01:14:07.560 not a race. And with the Italian Caucus, we're doing 1427 01:14:07.600 --> 01:14:10.840 a lot of different events and different things that you'll 1428 01:14:10.880 --> 01:14:13.119 say that you haven't seen before. With this caucus, we've 1429 01:14:13.319 --> 01:14:16.319 included all of the Italian organizations throughout New York City 1430 01:14:16.720 --> 01:14:19.079 to be included, so that we are one strong voice 1431 01:14:19.119 --> 01:14:20.439 together working towards. 1432 01:14:20.159 --> 01:14:20.840 The same goals. 1433 01:14:21.319 --> 01:14:23.319 Somebody put on Twitter yesterday they said, you know what 1434 01:14:23.439 --> 01:14:25.680 we love. You said, no one's ever going to argue 1435 01:14:25.720 --> 01:14:27.840 your love for Israel, and the Jewish people can't argue that. 1436 01:14:27.880 --> 01:14:29.560 I'm going back to Israel again in October will be 1437 01:14:29.600 --> 01:14:32.239 the sixth time since the war. They said, But man, 1438 01:14:32.399 --> 01:14:37.319 you show such respect to Christ, to Christians, and I do. 1439 01:14:37.880 --> 01:14:40.239 I put on Twitter yesterday I said, listen, I'm a 1440 01:14:41.039 --> 01:14:43.960 proud Jew. That's never going to change. But I have 1441 01:14:44.079 --> 01:14:47.760 a healthy love and respect for Christ and my brothers 1442 01:14:47.840 --> 01:14:51.880 and sisters in the Christian community because I realize that 1443 01:14:52.000 --> 01:14:54.359 if we're going to get rid of hate, anti Semitism, 1444 01:14:54.640 --> 01:14:57.640 but hate in this world, it can only happen if 1445 01:14:57.800 --> 01:15:01.319 Christians and Jews come together. That's why we're so disappointed 1446 01:15:01.640 --> 01:15:04.520 when Christians turn out to be anti Semitic. It really 1447 01:15:04.560 --> 01:15:07.159 bothers me because the truth is, we're built this country 1448 01:15:07.319 --> 01:15:10.600 was built on Judeo Christian values. We should be brothers 1449 01:15:10.640 --> 01:15:13.560 and sisters in this fight against hate. So I'm glad 1450 01:15:13.600 --> 01:15:16.560 you brought up the church buyer bombings, what's going on 1451 01:15:16.720 --> 01:15:19.239 in Howard Beach. Course, I'm not just about the Jews. 1452 01:15:19.439 --> 01:15:21.880 I'm not just about Israel. I know what's going on 1453 01:15:22.000 --> 01:15:24.720 with Christians in this country. I know Christians are being 1454 01:15:24.920 --> 01:15:27.760 murdered by Muslims in Africa and all over the world. 1455 01:15:28.079 --> 01:15:31.199 So it's time for people to pay attention to all 1456 01:15:31.279 --> 01:15:33.640 the atrocities going on with Christians. 1457 01:15:34.760 --> 01:15:37.439 Absolutely, and thank you for that night. And I know 1458 01:15:37.560 --> 01:15:40.159 you are supportive of the Catholic faith and the Christian faith, 1459 01:15:40.399 --> 01:15:41.880 and we want to see more of that, right. I 1460 01:15:41.960 --> 01:15:44.760 want to see the leaders the rabbis coming out and 1461 01:15:45.640 --> 01:15:48.119 talking out against this. I want to see the Emams 1462 01:15:48.159 --> 01:15:51.039 coming out and talking out against this, because Catholics are 1463 01:15:51.399 --> 01:15:53.600 very bad at advocating for themselves, but they're the first 1464 01:15:53.640 --> 01:15:56.239 ones out there to say when something anti Semitic or 1465 01:15:56.319 --> 01:15:59.199 something that's you know, considered anti Muslim happened. They're the 1466 01:15:59.239 --> 01:16:01.199 first ones out there to say something. And then something 1467 01:16:01.279 --> 01:16:04.079 happens to us and we do not see any of 1468 01:16:04.119 --> 01:16:05.239 their leadership of the church. 1469 01:16:06.319 --> 01:16:09.159 It really is sad. Anything else that we should know 1470 01:16:09.239 --> 01:16:12.239 about with this story, or because you autorific by the way, Fellas, 1471 01:16:12.399 --> 01:16:15.159 anything else with that community and Howard Beach we should 1472 01:16:15.199 --> 01:16:15.520 know about. 1473 01:16:16.439 --> 01:16:18.359 Well, just know that we're here. We're a great community. 1474 01:16:18.439 --> 01:16:20.920 We have great restaurants. You mentioned Joe. I'm very close 1475 01:16:20.960 --> 01:16:23.760 with Joe and during the Candya from Lenny's Clambar they're 1476 01:16:23.880 --> 01:16:27.119 dear friends of mine. They are very giving towards the community. 1477 01:16:27.159 --> 01:16:30.560 We did a street renaming for Lenny's two years ago 1478 01:16:30.680 --> 01:16:34.239 for the fiftieth anniversary. But come to Howard Beach. You'll 1479 01:16:34.279 --> 01:16:37.319 see a strong Italian community with lots of faith here, 1480 01:16:37.520 --> 01:16:40.960 and we're happy to have you. And said, definitely, I'll 1481 01:16:40.960 --> 01:16:42.439 meet you with Lenny's for a drink one day. 1482 01:16:42.479 --> 01:16:44.439 No, I love Joe, he's great back. One day. I 1483 01:16:44.560 --> 01:16:47.840 was at Lenny's one night, i should say, and he 1484 01:16:48.000 --> 01:16:51.079 wasn't there. Joe and I finished dinner with Danielle and Gabe, 1485 01:16:51.119 --> 01:16:53.560 my family, and we walked out and I got a 1486 01:16:53.640 --> 01:16:56.399 text from Joe and I said, how do you know 1487 01:16:56.439 --> 01:16:59.000 I just left?

You gotta love her. 1517 01:18:16.359 --> 01:18:18.640 No, Yeah, well I like the fact that they have 1518 01:18:18.800 --> 01:18:20.800 somebody at least they know who this person is. They 1519 01:18:20.880 --> 01:18:23.039 just got to find them. The person's stealing the statues. 1520 01:18:23.079 --> 01:18:23.800 Yeah, creep. 1521 01:18:24.079 --> 01:18:24.279 Yeah. 1522 01:18:25.199 --> 01:18:27.000 Like I said, in the good old days, I would 1523 01:18:27.159 --> 01:18:30.319 just put them outside at about midnight and have John 1524 01:18:30.479 --> 01:18:31.399 or somebody else. 1525 01:18:31.520 --> 01:18:32.439 And I loved her response. 1526 01:18:32.520 --> 01:18:34.399 She just is like, I'm not even gonna pretend like 1527 01:18:34.479 --> 01:18:36.479 he even said that, I'm just gonna talk about others. 1528 01:18:36.560 --> 01:18:39.039 We had an off air of conversation yesterday and I said, 1529 01:18:39.039 --> 01:18:41.079 why can't we just handle this guy to the old passion? 1530 01:18:41.159 --> 01:18:41.359 Wait? 1531 01:18:42.000 --> 01:18:45.239 So she laughed at that point, but not today. She 1532 01:18:45.319 --> 01:18:48.239 just her professional deal. Well, take a short break. We're 1533 01:18:48.239 --> 01:18:51.720 going to talk to the amazing Congressman Peter King. He 1534 01:18:51.800 --> 01:18:54.079 said every Wednesday, he'll come up next. Before it's said 1535 01:18:54.079 --> 01:18:57.000 and done, you guys remember Jay Deeley, you NFL fans, 1536 01:18:57.039 --> 01:18:59.920 big time kicker, big time for the Giants, the Jet, 1537 01:19:00.319 --> 01:19:04.000 the Dolphins, the Cardinals. He's running for Congress in Arizona 1538 01:19:04.279 --> 01:19:08.680 and he got a huge video endorsement from President Trump yesterday. 1539 01:19:08.800 --> 01:19:11.039 Former NFL kicker j Beely will join me in the 1540 01:19:11.159 --> 01:19:14.119 nine o'clock hour and later on this hour. Yep, the 1541 01:19:14.319 --> 01:19:16.279 great one Mark Levin. 1542 01:19:16.880 --> 01:19:20.439 Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple 1543 01:19:20.600 --> 01:19:21.680 podcast network. 1544 01:19:22.560 --> 01:19:25.079 Frankie's been a friend for many years, and I guess 1545 01:19:25.119 --> 01:19:27.640 Frankie was with Bowl last night at Kassa Chipriani and 1546 01:19:27.680 --> 01:19:30.800 the mayor was there. So the mayor told Keith Cantwrizho 1547 01:19:30.880 --> 01:19:33.319 was out of town. That's why he didn't meet us 1548 01:19:33.479 --> 01:19:37.680 for our monthly dinner, which he usually comes to at Ilmonello. 1549 01:19:38.600 --> 01:19:40.800 They love Bow there too on forty nine between first 1550 01:19:40.880 --> 01:19:43.279 and second. But I don't think Eric Adams wants to 1551 01:19:43.359 --> 01:19:44.880 be at dinner with me, That's the bottom line. I 1552 01:19:44.920 --> 01:19:48.359 really believe that he was there a couple of months ago. 1553 01:19:48.439 --> 01:19:51.279 It was fine, you know, Hi, Hi, not much and 1554 01:19:52.640 --> 01:19:54.359 how's it come back? Since I was told he was 1555 01:19:54.399 --> 01:19:56.800 out of town. So I know, Orange and you're listening 1556 01:19:56.840 --> 01:19:59.000 and the rest of you not out of town at 1557 01:19:59.079 --> 01:20:01.840 Cassa Chipriani. Just didn't want to come with us, which 1558 01:20:01.960 --> 01:20:04.880 is fine with me because again I'm not buying into 1559 01:20:05.000 --> 01:20:07.680 Eric was great because the Blasio was so bad before 1560 01:20:07.760 --> 01:20:12.319 him and Mamdani is the worst ever after him. That 1561 01:20:12.439 --> 01:20:14.800 doesn't mean that Eric was great. In fact, for the 1562 01:20:14.840 --> 01:20:18.920 better part of three years, Eric was terrible. I mean 1563 01:20:19.199 --> 01:20:25.359 terrible corruption everywhere, indictments everywhere, Pohamas running up and down 1564 01:20:25.399 --> 01:20:28.359 this city like you never saw before, Americans sleeping on 1565 01:20:28.520 --> 01:20:33.399 park benches, but illegals getting five star hotels, subways a mess. 1566 01:20:34.119 --> 01:20:37.159 That was the real Eric Adams deal. Okay, and I 1567 01:20:37.279 --> 01:20:39.439 work with a lot of people here who are up 1568 01:20:39.640 --> 01:20:43.600 Eric Adams ass. They still are, They still are. I'm 1569 01:20:43.640 --> 01:20:45.159 not going to name names because I happened to love 1570 01:20:45.239 --> 01:20:47.680 those people, but I told them early on he had 1571 01:20:47.720 --> 01:20:49.920 no chance of winning, and I think they embarrassed themselves 1572 01:20:50.159 --> 01:20:52.880 when they went all in with Eric. Early on. I said, 1573 01:20:52.880 --> 01:20:55.560 he ain't gonna make it. He's lost every Republican in 1574 01:20:55.640 --> 01:20:58.960 this city because he's not really a Republican. That was me, 1575 01:20:59.399 --> 01:21:01.479 the Democrat. They don't want any part of this guy. 1576 01:21:02.079 --> 01:21:04.399 Now they sucked up to Trump. The blacks don't want them. 1577 01:21:04.840 --> 01:21:07.800 And I was right. He couldn't even make it through 1578 01:21:07.880 --> 01:21:10.760 the damn race. He had to quit before in a 1579 01:21:10.880 --> 01:21:13.840 race where Curtis got seven percent. That's all you need 1580 01:21:13.880 --> 01:21:17.239 to know here. He is the former amazing congressman. Homeland 1581 01:21:17.279 --> 01:21:22.199 Security our staple on Wednesday Mornings, my guy Peter King Pete, 1582 01:21:23.039 --> 01:21:25.560 First of all, thank you for that lovely message.

Now down by just five or six points, 1589 01:21:44.800 --> 01:21:47.039 things are looking good, Pete King for Bruce Blakeman. 1590 01:21:48.039 --> 01:21:49.920 Now Bruce is really on the move. And I would 1591 01:21:49.920 --> 01:21:52.199 just say as far as your family, I've met all 1592 01:21:52.319 --> 01:21:54.600 four of you and there's no doubt who the bottom 1593 01:21:54.640 --> 01:21:57.119 person is. That's you. And it's a tieph number one 1594 01:21:57.159 --> 01:22:01.920 with Danny hell Gave and it really is. Talk about it. 1595 01:22:02.319 --> 01:22:03.720 I get on the top of the league, in the 1596 01:22:03.720 --> 01:22:06.000 bottom of the league. Got he got great.

We sat in John Gotti's table. 1603 01:22:23.359 --> 01:22:26.159 That's terrific right now, we did. That was the after 1604 01:22:26.319 --> 01:22:30.479 Gott he and Sammy had Paul Castelano rubbed out at 1605 01:22:30.520 --> 01:22:34.199 Sparks Steakhouse. People don't know this, but God, he called 1606 01:22:34.239 --> 01:22:36.840 an emergency meeting of the five families, like like one 1607 01:22:36.840 --> 01:22:39.159 o'clock in the morning, and they had it at Guard 1608 01:22:39.239 --> 01:22:42.600 Julos in Cony Island, and we sat at that exact table. 1609 01:22:42.720 --> 01:22:44.079 You still remember that, you love that. 1610 01:22:44.199 --> 01:22:46.960 Pete, Right, that was a great time and really was 1611 01:22:47.199 --> 01:22:47.520 it was. 1612 01:22:47.920 --> 01:22:50.840 And look, Bruce is up in the northern part of 1613 01:22:50.880 --> 01:22:52.840 the state today. You know. I called him last night. 1614 01:22:53.199 --> 01:22:55.960 I'm gonna be honest with you. I called him to say, 1615 01:22:56.119 --> 01:22:59.760 maybe we should consider reaching out to at least a 1616 01:22:59.800 --> 01:23:03.079 fire and getting her endorsement. Now. I've reached out to 1617 01:23:03.119 --> 01:23:04.880 a Lease a couple of times over the last couple 1618 01:23:04.880 --> 01:23:06.680 of weeks. He had a new book out and I 1619 01:23:06.720 --> 01:23:09.239 wanted to help her promote her book. She did not 1620 01:23:09.359 --> 01:23:12.399 answer any of my requests. Anie she hates me, and 1621 01:23:12.800 --> 01:23:15.039 truth be told, I think Bruce also reached out to 1622 01:23:15.119 --> 01:23:18.479 her and he got nothing. So even though I thought 1623 01:23:18.520 --> 01:23:20.239 it may have been a good idea, it looks like 1624 01:23:21.000 --> 01:23:23.800 she's angry, she's resentful, and I don't know why she 1625 01:23:23.840 --> 01:23:26.039 should have stayed in the race. She had plenty of money, 1626 01:23:26.319 --> 01:23:29.159 upwards of fifteen million dollars, plenty of support in the 1627 01:23:29.199 --> 01:23:31.920 northern part of the state, but like a coward, she 1628 01:23:32.159 --> 01:23:35.439 jumped out. And Bruce Blakeman is fighting the good fight. 1629 01:23:36.000 --> 01:23:37.479 So in the end he's the hero. 1630 01:23:37.880 --> 01:23:41.239 No, he really is. And Bruce is doing a great job. 1631 01:23:41.359 --> 01:23:43.159 And you know you and I have a comments done 1632 01:23:43.199 --> 01:23:46.560 before about some of the Republicans who said Bruce can't win. Bruce, 1633 01:23:46.680 --> 01:23:49.239 Bruce's doing a great job. He's going everywhere. Yeah, he 1634 01:23:49.319 --> 01:23:52.479 started off twenty points behind. That makes sense. She's the 1635 01:23:52.520 --> 01:23:54.800 in company, he's not. The fact is, when he ran 1636 01:23:54.840 --> 01:23:58.039 against lower Current, who was much more popular than Kathy Hooker, 1637 01:23:58.199 --> 01:24:00.640 was Bruce's twenty four points behind, and that was the 1638 01:24:00.680 --> 01:24:03.359 same thing over the summer. It's a long, hot slog 1639 01:24:03.479 --> 01:24:06.159 doing that. But when he's out there every day, every day, 1640 01:24:06.600 --> 01:24:09.439 Bruce is just picking up votes everywhere he goes. She's 1641 01:24:09.560 --> 01:24:11.880 losing votes every time people see her. Here from her 1642 01:24:12.159 --> 01:24:13.920 So no, this is going to be to me a 1643 01:24:14.000 --> 01:24:17.199 big victory for Bruce in November. But Republicans have to 1644 01:24:17.239 --> 01:24:19.560 stay united. As far as the Lease, I don't know 1645 01:24:19.600 --> 01:24:21.880 what happened there. I mean, he was always friendly with 1646 01:24:22.039 --> 01:24:24.640 Lease in the House. She was good to work with. 1647 01:24:25.119 --> 01:24:28.000 We run the Intelligence Committee together. And then all of 1648 01:24:28.039 --> 01:24:29.319 a sudden she was out of the race. I mean, 1649 01:24:29.359 --> 01:24:33.279 Bruce was actually that said party that there's where police 1650 01:24:33.319 --> 01:24:34.439 have SA said. 1651 01:24:34.560 --> 01:24:37.000 That I know that girl. You'll buy me dinner every 1652 01:24:37.079 --> 01:24:38.039 year with those guys. 1653 01:24:38.359 --> 01:24:41.760 Right, So I was out there this year, Bruce was there, 1654 01:24:42.199 --> 01:24:44.560 was there, and he was going to go upstate the 1655 01:24:44.640 --> 01:24:47.439 next day on his campaign, but we knew at that 1656 01:24:47.560 --> 01:24:49.760 moment Elise was still in the race. Then Bruce says, 1657 01:24:50.079 --> 01:24:51.800 I don't know, I'm hearing if she made back out 1658 01:24:51.840 --> 01:24:53.800 as what and come on, but you know, I just 1659 01:24:53.840 --> 01:24:57.199 thought he's being overly confident. And the next thing, I know, 1660 01:24:57.479 --> 01:24:59.439 next day, she dropped out. So I don't know what 1661 01:24:59.600 --> 01:25:02.199 that was a I don't know, and I don't want 1662 01:25:02.239 --> 01:25:02.720 to say. 1663 01:25:03.119 --> 01:25:05.079 I mean, and I think she got mad at Trump 1664 01:25:05.159 --> 01:25:07.479 because Trump was not going to endorse her over Bruce, 1665 01:25:07.560 --> 01:25:10.000 no way, but the man some other things too. I 1666 01:25:10.039 --> 01:25:11.880 don't know. I don't care at this point. All I 1667 01:25:12.000 --> 01:25:14.079 know is, you know, Mike Laula was going to run, 1668 01:25:14.159 --> 01:25:16.439 but he backed out because Trump wanted him in Congress, 1669 01:25:17.000 --> 01:25:19.760 and you know, Bruce is our guy, and I think 1670 01:25:19.800 --> 01:25:22.960 he's a tremendous candidate, and I think he's gonna beat her. 1671 01:25:23.039 --> 01:25:25.359 But of course we're going to see got a lot 1672 01:25:25.399 --> 01:25:27.039 of months ahead of us. I do want to get 1673 01:25:27.079 --> 01:25:29.279 to Israel because I did have bb on this show 1674 01:25:29.279 --> 01:25:31.720 a couple of days ago. When you're a staunch pro 1675 01:25:32.079 --> 01:25:35.840 Israel advocate. I know you heard the conversation with me 1676 01:25:35.960 --> 01:25:38.039 and Bibie and he said, look, me and President Trump, 1677 01:25:38.119 --> 01:25:41.439 we've never been better. Two days that friends, even family 1678 01:25:41.520 --> 01:25:44.439 members tend to argue whether it was Turkey or Iran, 1679 01:25:44.520 --> 01:25:47.399 it doesn't matter. We've never been better. So my question 1680 01:25:47.600 --> 01:25:49.359 is pe because you've been in these rooms before with 1681 01:25:49.439 --> 01:25:51.720 the biggest leaders in the world, do you believe them? 1682 01:25:53.680 --> 01:25:56.880 I believe that, Uh, they still are closed, probably not 1683 01:25:56.960 --> 01:25:59.399 as close as they should be. And I don't want 1684 01:25:59.399 --> 01:26:01.840 to be critical President Trump, hey, but I think sometimes 1685 01:26:02.439 --> 01:26:05.840 he overreacts to you. Life is not as he looks 1686 01:26:05.920 --> 01:26:07.720 upon things as the real estate deal. So he can 1687 01:26:07.800 --> 01:26:10.840 work out something involving Iran and Israel has happens to 1688 01:26:10.880 --> 01:26:13.840 be in the way. It annoys him when that Yahoo 1689 01:26:14.000 --> 01:26:15.880 says no, he can't do that. I mean, we can't 1690 01:26:15.960 --> 01:26:20.560 just say that Israel us to stop attacking Hesbellah. I mean, 1691 01:26:20.600 --> 01:26:24.600 the fact is that that they are a main They 1692 01:26:24.680 --> 01:26:28.039 are a direct threat to Israel and Iran is somehow 1693 01:26:28.079 --> 01:26:29.840 by trying to work out a deal between Iran and 1694 01:26:29.880 --> 01:26:33.680 the United States and excluding Israel and Hesbela that tremendously 1695 01:26:33.800 --> 01:26:36.720 weakens Israel. Israel has to have the right to go 1696 01:26:36.800 --> 01:26:40.640 into Lebanon after Hesbella. That what is Israel care about Lebanon. 1697 01:26:40.640 --> 01:26:42.359 They don't care at all. They're don't trying to pick 1698 01:26:42.439 --> 01:26:45.600 up more property or more territory. But that's where the 1699 01:26:45.760 --> 01:26:48.760 enemy is. Hesbelas as a sanctuary in Lebanon and they 1700 01:26:48.800 --> 01:26:53.159 attack Israel. So I can understand President Trump looks at 1701 01:26:53.239 --> 01:26:55.399 things much more for a deal. Let's make the deal 1702 01:26:55.760 --> 01:26:59.600 and we can worry about Hezbela later on. Well Bb 1703 01:26:59.720 --> 01:27:02.560 does have that luxury because he is where we every 1704 01:27:02.640 --> 01:27:06.640 day about rockets coming in from whether I'm because of Hezbela. 1705 01:27:06.800 --> 01:27:09.920 So listen, they get along as well as Tenny two 1706 01:27:09.960 --> 01:27:12.560 world leaders can. But I think when it comes crunch time, 1707 01:27:12.880 --> 01:27:15.560 you have to stay together. Even if there are individual differences, 1708 01:27:15.600 --> 01:27:17.439 you got to resolve that. And I think it's going 1709 01:27:17.479 --> 01:27:19.600 to be resolved in the big picture when this is 1710 01:27:19.800 --> 01:27:22.119 finally written. I think you're going to see the Israel 1711 01:27:22.199 --> 01:27:26.119 and United States and Trump and then Yahoo stood together. 1712 01:27:26.439 --> 01:27:29.880 Me too. But my fear is JD. Vans. I'm sorry, 1713 01:27:30.199 --> 01:27:34.199 s halving this conversation with a person yesterday opens to work. 1714 01:27:35.039 --> 01:27:37.079 I'm not going to say where in the Trump administration 1715 01:27:37.800 --> 01:27:41.640 loves Vance. I go why, And after my ten minute conversation, 1716 01:27:41.800 --> 01:27:45.000 they were like, yeah, yeah, so we'll see. 1717 01:27:45.079 --> 01:27:48.399 I don't trust JD. Vans, I mean either to me, 1718 01:27:48.840 --> 01:27:52.800 he was against this from the start. He's one of 1719 01:27:52.800 --> 01:27:55.920 those isolationists and the at Tucker cars in the wing 1720 01:27:56.279 --> 01:27:59.159 that somehow looks upon Israel as being an impediment to 1721 01:27:59.239 --> 01:28:01.800 peace rather than and our main ally in the Middle East. 1722 01:28:01.800 --> 01:28:03.600 And then you have I keep going back to this, 1723 01:28:03.840 --> 01:28:07.600 what does Steve Whitcock do in negotiating with Iran? I mean, 1724 01:28:07.640 --> 01:28:10.520 you're talking about one of the most sophisticated diplomatic people 1725 01:28:10.560 --> 01:28:12.520 in the world of the Iranians. They've been doing this 1726 01:28:12.840 --> 01:28:15.760 for forty seven years. They've been stringing people along. They 1727 01:28:15.800 --> 01:28:18.600 are experts at negotiations, and we have a guy in 1728 01:28:18.640 --> 01:28:20.520 there who just wants to close the deal. And when 1729 01:28:20.560 --> 01:28:22.399 you close a deal, you do it fifty to fifty 1730 01:28:22.640 --> 01:28:25.159 sixty forty. You can't do that. In the release, is 1731 01:28:25.199 --> 01:28:28.039 no such thing as having a deal with Iran because 1732 01:28:28.359 --> 01:28:31.760 their goal is to destroy us and Israel. Israel's first, 1733 01:28:31.960 --> 01:28:35.520 We are second, and it's we need somebody who understands that. 1734 01:28:35.640 --> 01:28:37.560 Now somebody looks upon it as a real estate deal. 1735 01:28:37.640 --> 01:28:39.680 Well, there's no deal here anyway. I mean, I said 1736 01:28:39.680 --> 01:28:41.359 this on Box News a couple of weeks ago. I 1737 01:28:41.479 --> 01:28:43.199 say it on the air every day. I think President 1738 01:28:43.239 --> 01:28:45.239 Trump may be upset with me. I'll find out when 1739 01:28:45.279 --> 01:28:47.479 I see him on Saturday. There was never a deal 1740 01:28:47.560 --> 01:28:49.199 to be made here. There was no way in a 1741 01:28:49.279 --> 01:28:51.600 million years, in a million years, and people should know 1742 01:28:51.720 --> 01:28:53.720 better that Iran was going to do a deal, and 1743 01:28:53.760 --> 01:28:55.760 if they did a deal, they were not going to comply. 1744 01:28:56.159 --> 01:28:58.600 So what President Trump is doing right now is what 1745 01:28:58.720 --> 01:29:00.520 he should have done two months to go on that 1746 01:29:00.680 --> 01:29:03.520 Tuesday night when he made that very very first promise, 1747 01:29:03.720 --> 01:29:06.439 and that is blow the doors off these bastards. I'm 1748 01:29:06.520 --> 01:29:09.800 sorry we did it. World War two, innocent Germans died, 1749 01:29:10.000 --> 01:29:13.560 innocent Japanese died. This idea now that, oh my god, 1750 01:29:13.600 --> 01:29:16.560 if somebody dies, what a horrible thing this is. 1751 01:29:16.720 --> 01:29:16.920 War. 1752 01:29:17.199 --> 01:29:20.479 We didn't start it. Those bastards did forty seven years ago. 1753 01:29:20.760 --> 01:29:22.359 Let's finish them. Bottom line. 1754 01:29:23.479 --> 01:29:27.079 Also, to me, doesn't make sense to say that were 1755 01:29:27.079 --> 01:29:29.880 the most powerful military in the world and we can't 1756 01:29:29.920 --> 01:29:31.880 open the straights of her moves if at the end 1757 01:29:31.920 --> 01:29:33.720 of all this the straits of a moves are not 1758 01:29:33.880 --> 01:29:37.920 controlled by us, And if I ran as anything say 1759 01:29:37.920 --> 01:29:40.079 about it at all, we have lost the war because 1760 01:29:40.079 --> 01:29:42.439 they can bring the world economy to a halt anytime 1761 01:29:42.479 --> 01:29:45.159 they want to shut down the Straight of hor Moos. 1762 01:29:45.239 --> 01:29:48.760 So we have to guarantee that they have no control 1763 01:29:48.800 --> 01:29:50.920 with it all, that they are totally under control of 1764 01:29:50.920 --> 01:29:54.359 the United States or Israel or Gulf countries. It cannot 1765 01:29:54.399 --> 01:29:57.560 be Iran. So that isn't just a technicality. And that's 1766 01:29:57.560 --> 01:30:00.359 why when you go back to that memory of unders standing, 1767 01:30:00.720 --> 01:30:04.479 I mean basically, it does give Iran power over the strangers. 1768 01:30:04.479 --> 01:30:06.520 Says they'll work it out. They won't do this sixty 1769 01:30:06.920 --> 01:30:08.960 they shid nothing to say about it, and they never 1770 01:30:09.000 --> 01:30:11.520 did and they never should. Now we yield at it all, 1771 01:30:11.800 --> 01:30:13.079 that's me is like losing the war. 1772 01:30:13.359 --> 01:30:16.119 Agreed in the final couple of seconds. Pete as an 1773 01:30:16.399 --> 01:30:20.119 amazing member of Congress all these years I know that 1774 01:30:20.359 --> 01:30:23.279 you knew the man very well, very well. I saw 1775 01:30:23.319 --> 01:30:26.359 your posts after he tragically passed away the death of 1776 01:30:26.439 --> 01:30:30.640 Lindsay Graham. Real Americans, patriots, great Americans. They're upset the 1777 01:30:30.720 --> 01:30:34.319 morons out there who hate American, hate Israel, and hate 1778 01:30:34.359 --> 01:30:37.039 anything that you know that has to do with, you know, 1779 01:30:37.119 --> 01:30:39.680 stetting up for our country. They hated his guts. Are 1780 01:30:39.680 --> 01:30:42.880 happy he's dead, But the great Americans know what Lindsey 1781 01:30:42.920 --> 01:30:45.399 Graham meant to this country. You're one of them. What 1782 01:30:45.520 --> 01:30:48.600 are your thoughts two days after his tragic passing. 1783 01:30:49.359 --> 01:30:51.359 Yeah, maybe it's an overused term, but he was a 1784 01:30:51.399 --> 01:30:53.560 true patriot. I know Lindsey when he was in the House. 1785 01:30:53.600 --> 01:30:55.720 He served in the House for eight years. Actually, he 1786 01:30:55.800 --> 01:31:01.439 and I joined forces back in two thousand support John McKennon, 1787 01:31:01.600 --> 01:31:03.600 which got Karl rogat for me for a couple of years. 1788 01:31:03.840 --> 01:31:06.680 But now, I mean Lindsay was there. He was just 1789 01:31:06.760 --> 01:31:09.199 a true American. He loved the country. I never saw 1790 01:31:09.279 --> 01:31:11.680 him having a dark moment, unlike you and me. I 1791 01:31:11.760 --> 01:31:14.800 never saw Lindsay lose his temper. He could, really, I mean, 1792 01:31:14.800 --> 01:31:16.159 he could disagree, but he was just. 1793 01:31:16.159 --> 01:31:19.560 A wonderful He did lose his temper and he was right. 1794 01:31:20.039 --> 01:31:25.279 Thank God for him. Yes, right right, that was great. 1795 01:31:25.319 --> 01:31:28.560 That was That was Lindsay at his best. But many 1796 01:31:28.600 --> 01:31:31.359 of us have seen Lindsay before, we saw other versions 1797 01:31:31.439 --> 01:31:33.399 of that. He is a fighter. That's why he said 1798 01:31:33.399 --> 01:31:35.520 he would never ever back down for a guy who 1799 01:31:35.520 --> 01:31:38.520 had an easy going personality, he never ever backed down 1800 01:31:38.560 --> 01:31:40.479 what he did with Brett Kavanaugh because you know, so 1801 01:31:40.520 --> 01:31:43.279 many Republicans hat there looking at the Democrats were going 1802 01:31:43.319 --> 01:31:46.319 out of the way to smear this guy, and the 1803 01:31:46.359 --> 01:31:48.800 Republicans like hoping for the best, sitting back, and then 1804 01:31:48.920 --> 01:31:52.399 Lindsay jumped in. That turned that all around completely. That 1805 01:31:52.560 --> 01:31:56.279 made it impossible for Republicans not to fully support Brett Kavanaugh. 1806 01:31:56.640 --> 01:31:58.560 But that was I mean, I was not surprised that 1807 01:31:58.720 --> 01:32:00.279 night to see that. I mean I was, I I 1808 01:32:00.439 --> 01:32:03.359 was pleased, met a lot. But having said that, that 1809 01:32:03.560 --> 01:32:07.640 to me was the Lindsay Grahame that we knew and 1810 01:32:07.800 --> 01:32:10.920 really appreciated so much. I couldn't ask for a better guy. 1811 01:32:11.319 --> 01:32:13.520 I was proud to call him a friend, and he 1812 01:32:13.720 --> 01:32:17.640 was just a wonderful human being. Again, say it enough. 1813 01:32:18.079 --> 01:32:19.760 Sometimes you say it too much. It sounds like you're 1814 01:32:19.760 --> 01:32:22.399 overdoing it. You can't. That's you overdo it when it 1815 01:32:22.439 --> 01:32:24.399 comes to Lindsay Graham, couldn't agree more. 1816 01:32:24.600 --> 01:32:27.600 And you too. You're a great guy, wonderful guy, great politician, 1817 01:32:27.640 --> 01:32:31.359 but even a better man. Peter King has always exceptional job. 1818 01:32:31.479 --> 01:32:34.560 We love you on Wednesdays. Thank you for this this morning. 1819 01:32:34.600 --> 01:32:36.359 We'll do it again very soon. God bless you. 1820 01:32:36.760 --> 01:32:37.239 You goutsh it. 1821 01:32:37.399 --> 01:32:40.159 Okay, take care buddy, Peter King right there, the former 1822 01:32:40.239 --> 01:32:44.000 amazing congressman homeland secruiting. Don't forget. I have now mentioned 1823 01:32:44.079 --> 01:32:46.720 nine to eleven every day, like I promised, I promise 1824 01:32:46.760 --> 01:32:49.000 we play a cut every day. We'll still do that today. 1825 01:32:49.600 --> 01:32:53.079 Since we celebrated our two hundred and fiftieth birthday last Saturday, 1826 01:32:53.199 --> 01:32:57.399 July the fourth, a lot of these families that have 1827 01:32:57.600 --> 01:33:01.800 lost loved ones since nine to eleven. That was not 1828 01:33:01.960 --> 01:33:05.199 a one day event. We're coming on twenty five years. 1829 01:33:05.479 --> 01:33:09.800 People are still sick, they're still dying still. It's so tragic. 1830 01:33:10.680 --> 01:33:15.880 And Peter King worked tatter than anybody anybody in Congress. 1831 01:33:16.359 --> 01:33:18.079 You got to help them. People like believe it or not, 1832 01:33:18.279 --> 01:33:20.920 that idiotic comedian John Stewart. 1833 01:33:21.279 --> 01:33:24.800 Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple 1834 01:33:24.960 --> 01:33:26.079 podcast network. 1835 01:33:27.119 --> 01:33:30.119 I know that elections are coming up, and look, I 1836 01:33:30.840 --> 01:33:33.039 look pray to God. I love you like I love Trump. 1837 01:33:33.039 --> 01:33:34.640 I really do. I adore both of you guys. You 1838 01:33:34.720 --> 01:33:36.760 know that I love you, I love Sarah, I love 1839 01:33:36.800 --> 01:33:39.600 all you guys. But you know there is a group 1840 01:33:39.640 --> 01:33:41.920 of people in Israel and here in America that are 1841 01:33:42.520 --> 01:33:45.319 rooting for your defeat. I know you've won five of 1842 01:33:45.399 --> 01:33:47.840 the last six elections. Are you pretty confident? Because I 1843 01:33:47.880 --> 01:33:50.159 love what you said to Monk Levin at jay Ands. 1844 01:33:50.239 --> 01:33:51.840 I was sitting in the front row looking right at 1845 01:33:51.880 --> 01:33:54.359 your BB when you said I plan on being here 1846 01:33:54.439 --> 01:33:56.479 for a long time. I think you meant that. 1847 01:33:56.640 --> 01:33:57.760 Yes, yes I did. 1848 01:33:57.840 --> 01:34:00.199 But let me tell you, I run in every him 1849 01:34:00.279 --> 01:34:03.239 is this I'm going to lose, and you know it's 1850 01:34:03.359 --> 01:34:06.279 up to me and and my colleagues to make sure 1851 01:34:06.359 --> 01:34:09.239 we don't so. I you know, I never make these 1852 01:34:10.600 --> 01:34:14.640 gung hole predictions. I said to my followers. In fact, 1853 01:34:14.680 --> 01:34:16.439 I will lose unless you guys show up in the 1854 01:34:17.439 --> 01:34:20.720 You know I'm voting there. That's that's really my approach, 1855 01:34:20.720 --> 01:34:23.079 and I think it's the right one. Yeah, I'm indeviewer. 1856 01:34:23.399 --> 01:34:25.000 I have a lot of big people on this show. 1857 01:34:25.079 --> 01:34:28.640 Trump bybe all of them, there's nobody bigger than Mark Levin. 1858 01:34:29.079 --> 01:34:32.199 I think he's the most important voice in the world. 1859 01:34:32.439 --> 01:34:33.960 I actually want to Hattie on the show a couple 1860 01:34:34.000 --> 01:34:36.640 of days ago Monday, when Graham died. I think Mark 1861 01:34:36.760 --> 01:34:39.279 is the most important and smartest voice in the world. 1862 01:34:39.319 --> 01:34:41.920 I legitimately love the man. I had the opportunity to 1863 01:34:41.960 --> 01:34:44.920 spend time with Mark and his lovely wife, Julian Israel 1864 01:34:44.960 --> 01:34:47.199 a couple of weeks ago. It was an honor. In fact, 1865 01:34:47.199 --> 01:34:50.239 Byebe was late for that first Sunday Night speech and 1866 01:34:50.359 --> 01:34:52.800 they had me and Mark till the time. Mark must 1867 01:34:52.840 --> 01:34:54.399 have spoken for an hour and a half, and he 1868 01:34:54.520 --> 01:34:57.359 was brilliant. He does a radio show all over America. 1869 01:34:57.399 --> 01:34:59.760 He's on this station every night. We're lucky to have 1870 01:34:59.840 --> 01:35:03.279 him two great shows on Fox News every Saturday and 1871 01:35:03.479 --> 01:35:07.279 Sunday night. Most importantly, like I said, a dear friend 1872 01:35:07.880 --> 01:35:10.880 and the most powerful voice in the world today, my friend, 1873 01:35:10.920 --> 01:35:13.439 the great one, Mark Levin. Good morning, Mark, how are you? 1874 01:35:15.319 --> 01:35:17.439 Oh sid, I'm doing a lot better now. That was 1875 01:35:17.600 --> 01:35:21.119 very incredible of you, Not true, but thank you. And 1876 01:35:21.239 --> 01:35:23.880 I do want people to know that you and I 1877 01:35:24.039 --> 01:35:26.840 are very very tight and we text all the time 1878 01:35:27.000 --> 01:35:29.000 and We bump in each other all the time, give 1879 01:35:29.039 --> 01:35:32.079 each other a big hug, and we genuinely do love 1880 01:35:32.159 --> 01:35:36.239 each other because Sid and I really we have the 1881 01:35:36.319 --> 01:35:41.079 same views about America, Israel, the Islamists, the Marxists, and 1882 01:35:41.119 --> 01:35:44.920 all the rest of it. And Sid, you're number one 1883 01:35:44.960 --> 01:35:47.159 in New York for a reason, in the toughest slot, 1884 01:35:47.239 --> 01:35:50.279 the morning slot, and people love you and for a 1885 01:35:50.399 --> 01:35:51.039 very good reason. 1886 01:35:51.119 --> 01:35:53.600 Brother, Thank you, what I said was true, and thank you. 1887 01:35:53.680 --> 01:35:55.560 I know you're humble, and that is Mark. By the way, 1888 01:35:55.600 --> 01:35:57.880 he's not a He's not just saying up for the air. 1889 01:35:57.960 --> 01:36:01.000 He's a humble guy, but just brilliant. Know we I 1890 01:36:01.039 --> 01:36:03.560 will often text you, I'm gonna make it there's a 1891 01:36:03.600 --> 01:36:06.439 big admission on air. I'm gonna see the President. I 1892 01:36:06.479 --> 01:36:09.520 think this Saturday in Bedminster, New Jersey, the summer White House, 1893 01:36:09.800 --> 01:36:11.319 and I'll up in text Mark, I'll go I think 1894 01:36:11.319 --> 01:36:13.760 I pissed off the President. I don't know. And then 1895 01:36:13.800 --> 01:36:17.520 we'll talk about some subject, maybe Iran, maybe Turkey, something 1896 01:36:17.560 --> 01:36:20.560 out there that is certainly a hot topic, and you'll 1897 01:36:20.640 --> 01:36:23.479 kind of talk me off the ledge. But it does 1898 01:36:23.600 --> 01:36:26.600 seem like recently, as much as I adore and loved Trump, 1899 01:36:26.640 --> 01:36:28.920 and I think he's the best president ever. That I've 1900 01:36:28.960 --> 01:36:32.199 been a bit critical about a whole variety of topics, 1901 01:36:32.720 --> 01:36:34.439 and people tend to get crazy, Oh, you don't love 1902 01:36:34.479 --> 01:36:38.119 Trump anymore. That's not true. I can be critical of 1903 01:36:38.159 --> 01:36:39.800 a few things and still love the president. 1904 01:36:39.920 --> 01:36:44.359 Yes, of course, I mean I am as well. And 1905 01:36:45.800 --> 01:36:49.279 he loves you. He's very, very busy. He's a big 1906 01:36:49.399 --> 01:36:52.119 fan of mine, and we're big fans of his. I 1907 01:36:52.239 --> 01:36:54.239 know how important he is to this country. We know 1908 01:36:54.399 --> 01:36:58.000 he is standing between us and the mob, standing between 1909 01:36:58.159 --> 01:37:01.199 us and the hard left. I mean, people seem to 1910 01:37:01.239 --> 01:37:04.960 forget what other Republican presidents have been like, certainly post Reagan, 1911 01:37:06.399 --> 01:37:09.800 they've been very milktoast. They've been very average. It's hard 1912 01:37:09.840 --> 01:37:12.359 to remember anything profound that they've done. Not to put 1913 01:37:12.399 --> 01:37:16.720 them down, it's hard to remember everything profound Donald Trump 1914 01:37:16.840 --> 01:37:21.199 has done. And so you know, you have to accept 1915 01:37:21.239 --> 01:37:25.600 the fact that this man's under constant attack, under constant pressure, 1916 01:37:26.600 --> 01:37:29.640 and I think he's performing brilliantly. Where I think you 1917 01:37:29.760 --> 01:37:33.159 and I disagree with him is we want to see 1918 01:37:33.199 --> 01:37:36.000 the Iranian regime destroyed. We want to see them pulled 1919 01:37:36.039 --> 01:37:39.319 out from the roots up arm the people there and 1920 01:37:41.199 --> 01:37:43.960 some of the leaks against Netanyahu, which I don't think 1921 01:37:43.960 --> 01:37:46.359 there him, might be some of the envoys and so forth. 1922 01:37:47.119 --> 01:37:50.319 Because we need Nedan Yahoo in Israel. We need Donald 1923 01:37:50.359 --> 01:37:53.199 Trump in the White House. This is a strong duo. 1924 01:37:53.439 --> 01:37:58.279 Like FDR and Churchill, like Reagan and Thatcher. These are 1925 01:37:58.319 --> 01:38:02.159 two of the greatest leaders of all time. And again, 1926 01:38:02.920 --> 01:38:06.199 nobody's perfect. Shit and I are perfect. We have our 1927 01:38:06.319 --> 01:38:09.760 views and we express them, and you know said, that's 1928 01:38:09.960 --> 01:38:13.119 very very important that we do so he hears from 1929 01:38:13.159 --> 01:38:16.680 a different perspective, not just some of these individuals, and 1930 01:38:16.800 --> 01:38:19.640 we do it very, very respectfully. In other words, we 1931 01:38:19.960 --> 01:38:23.079 raised the question about the issue. We never try to 1932 01:38:23.159 --> 01:38:24.119 sabotage him. 1933 01:38:24.279 --> 01:38:24.640 That's right. 1934 01:38:24.960 --> 01:38:27.039 We never tried to stab him in the back. And 1935 01:38:27.159 --> 01:38:30.880 that's the difference between us and so many people who 1936 01:38:30.920 --> 01:38:32.960 are just nasty as hell. 1937 01:38:33.800 --> 01:38:36.399 You nailed it, That's exactly right. That's the way I 1938 01:38:36.560 --> 01:38:38.079 do it, That's the way you do it, and that's 1939 01:38:38.119 --> 01:38:40.520 why at the end of the day he still respects us. 1940 01:38:40.560 --> 01:38:42.640 The one thing I do get about this Iran stuff, 1941 01:38:42.680 --> 01:38:44.880 and I'm right with you, I've been adamant about it. 1942 01:38:45.199 --> 01:38:47.840 Just blow their doors off, that's it. And you know 1943 01:38:47.920 --> 01:38:50.399 I heard you bring up World War two with Trumany 1944 01:38:50.479 --> 01:38:52.560 and Japan with showing handy a couple of nights ago. 1945 01:38:52.920 --> 01:38:55.520 Nobody wanted those people to die. But that's war. But 1946 01:38:56.079 --> 01:38:58.680 the boots on the ground issue, Rachel Campo stuff. He 1947 01:38:58.760 --> 01:39:01.560 keeps playing up with me. I said, listen, I don't 1948 01:39:01.560 --> 01:39:04.479 want him there. Trump doesn't want him there. Listen, President 1949 01:39:04.520 --> 01:39:06.960 Trump doesn't want anybody to die. You got to know 1950 01:39:07.079 --> 01:39:11.079 this guy. He is a good hearted, nice man. He 1951 01:39:11.159 --> 01:39:14.399 doesn't want anybody to die. But if they're call for 1952 01:39:14.520 --> 01:39:16.920 a situation, whether it's getting to a place where you 1953 01:39:16.920 --> 01:39:19.239 got to get the dust, well who knows what. And 1954 01:39:19.359 --> 01:39:21.800 we need some boots on the ground. If it means 1955 01:39:21.920 --> 01:39:24.640 a victory, you gotta do it. And when I say that, 1956 01:39:24.760 --> 01:39:27.479 for some reason, Mark Levin, I become a bad person. 1957 01:39:29.079 --> 01:39:31.640 Well you're not. I think we have something called the marines. 1958 01:39:31.720 --> 01:39:34.760 Do we not think we have something called the army? 1959 01:39:34.920 --> 01:39:35.319 Do we not? 1960 01:39:36.239 --> 01:39:38.800 Should we retire them? Should we shut it down? Those 1961 01:39:38.800 --> 01:39:40.840 are boots on the ground. I don't even like that phrase. 1962 01:39:40.920 --> 01:39:45.239 These are our men, infantry, Marines and so forth and 1963 01:39:45.359 --> 01:39:48.439 so on. And if you're going to announce in advance 1964 01:39:48.880 --> 01:39:50.880 that we're never going to use them, the enemy will 1965 01:39:50.920 --> 01:39:53.760 attack us, they have a lot of boots on the ground. 1966 01:39:53.840 --> 01:39:58.720 It's just so absurd. And these isolationists, most of them 1967 01:39:59.359 --> 01:40:02.079 are very ignorant in most of them are not aware 1968 01:40:02.199 --> 01:40:05.279 of our history. Most of them are very sympathetic to 1969 01:40:05.359 --> 01:40:08.680 our enemies, to be quite frank about it. And they've 1970 01:40:08.760 --> 01:40:10.760 undermined the president every step of the way. But this 1971 01:40:10.960 --> 01:40:14.760 idea that we should number one, never have quote unquote 1972 01:40:14.760 --> 01:40:16.880 boots on the ground, and number two convey that to 1973 01:40:16.960 --> 01:40:19.560 the enemy, and then we're going in for a one 1974 01:40:19.600 --> 01:40:22.399 point five trillion dollar defense budget. None of that makes 1975 01:40:22.479 --> 01:40:26.119 sense because they don't make sense. We don't send in 1976 01:40:26.239 --> 01:40:29.159 troops just to send in troops. We send in troops 1977 01:40:29.199 --> 01:40:31.199 that we have to. And these are men and women 1978 01:40:31.239 --> 01:40:35.680 who are trained. They are volunteers, none of them are drafted. 1979 01:40:36.279 --> 01:40:41.000 They understand their duty. They are incredibly patriotic, more patriotic 1980 01:40:41.079 --> 01:40:43.920 than most. And these people who keep saying no boots 1981 01:40:43.960 --> 01:40:45.560 on the ground, no boots on the ground, they're the 1982 01:40:45.640 --> 01:40:48.279 ones we're going to get us into World War III. 1983 01:40:48.880 --> 01:40:51.640 They're the ones who are going to wait until geographically, 1984 01:40:51.840 --> 01:40:58.520 militarily and psychologically we're not prepared to defend ourselves they're wrong, one. 1985 01:40:58.479 --> 01:41:00.560 Hundred percent wrong. Couldn't agree with you more, Mark, I 1986 01:41:00.680 --> 01:41:05.439 want to move to Turkey. You like me very adamant 1987 01:41:05.479 --> 01:41:10.319 about not providing F thirty fives to Urtawan and Turkey. 1988 01:41:10.439 --> 01:41:13.199 BB came out right away. He said, Look, I love Trump, 1989 01:41:13.279 --> 01:41:15.840 I love him, but he can't do this. He can't 1990 01:41:15.880 --> 01:41:20.000 provide Turkey with any military machinery. 1991 01:41:20.239 --> 01:41:20.359 Now. 1992 01:41:20.399 --> 01:41:22.479 I had a guy in studio yesterday, our dear friend, 1993 01:41:22.560 --> 01:41:25.680 John Katchmatitis, who loves us both, and he is of 1994 01:41:25.840 --> 01:41:29.119 Greek descent, so he knows just how dangerous Turkey is. 1995 01:41:29.439 --> 01:41:32.000 And he said, don't worry. Not going to happen, not 1996 01:41:32.199 --> 01:41:34.760 in a million years. And I tend to believe that. 1997 01:41:34.840 --> 01:41:37.760 I think President Trump knows that F thirty fives in 1998 01:41:37.800 --> 01:41:41.039 the hands of Turkey would be a huge problem for 1999 01:41:41.239 --> 01:41:43.239 Israel and quite frankly a lot of the Middle East. 2000 01:41:43.359 --> 01:41:46.840 But but until he says no, that is still kind 2001 01:41:46.880 --> 01:41:49.279 of dangling out there. Are you worried about that? 2002 01:41:52.159 --> 01:41:55.159 Look, if the President proposes something and he's pushing it hard, 2003 01:41:55.239 --> 01:41:57.840 I worry about it. If I disagree with it. Thirty 2004 01:41:57.920 --> 01:42:02.920 fives for Turkey me is something to be opposed strongly. 2005 01:42:03.640 --> 01:42:05.600 And if it doesn't happen. It's going to be because 2006 01:42:05.680 --> 01:42:08.520 Republicans and Democrats in Congress don't want it to happen. 2007 01:42:09.159 --> 01:42:12.079 There is a resolution in place. It can't be ignored 2008 01:42:12.920 --> 01:42:17.600 that says no. And the reason is Erdawana is friendly 2009 01:42:17.640 --> 01:42:20.760 with Putin. He bought S four hundreds ground the air 2010 01:42:20.840 --> 01:42:25.399 missile systems and violation of our rules and violation of NATO. 2011 01:42:25.960 --> 01:42:28.359 He didn't care. And then he wants F thirty five. 2012 01:42:28.439 --> 01:42:32.960 So what he wants is Russian defense batteries against jets, 2013 01:42:33.239 --> 01:42:36.239 and then he wants our top jets. And of course 2014 01:42:36.720 --> 01:42:40.119 we have hundreds of millions of technology that went into 2015 01:42:40.199 --> 01:42:44.439 these jets. They're stealth fighters, they're cutting edge, and it 2016 01:42:44.479 --> 01:42:48.239 would change the balance of power there. It would potentially 2017 01:42:48.319 --> 01:42:51.479 give this incredibly important technology to the enemy. 2018 01:42:52.279 --> 01:42:52.760 Why do it? 2019 01:42:52.840 --> 01:42:55.279 Why give him one hundred thirty five? This guy is 2020 01:42:55.399 --> 01:43:04.199 a nationalist, socialist, unfamiliar Islamist. He's constantly threading Israel, Greece, Cyprus, 2021 01:43:04.760 --> 01:43:08.600 He's constantly kissing up the Putin. He doesn't get F 2022 01:43:08.720 --> 01:43:12.840 thirty five regardless period, he doesn't get F thirty five. 2023 01:43:13.520 --> 01:43:16.359 It took us twenty five years to develop that technology 2024 01:43:16.399 --> 01:43:18.760 in those jets, and we don't give it to one 2025 01:43:18.760 --> 01:43:23.119 of the most heinous dictators on the planet period. And 2026 01:43:24.039 --> 01:43:25.960 I'm not one of these guys. Just to be honest, 2027 01:43:26.000 --> 01:43:27.920 it will never happen this out of there. It takes 2028 01:43:28.000 --> 01:43:30.680 voices like yours and mine. You know a lot of 2029 01:43:30.800 --> 01:43:33.399 behind the scenes work people don't realize I do and 2030 01:43:33.520 --> 01:43:39.319 you do to advance good things and prevent what I 2031 01:43:39.479 --> 01:43:40.720 consider bad things. 2032 01:43:41.920 --> 01:43:45.399 That's why your voice is so important. Mark Levin joining 2033 01:43:45.479 --> 01:43:47.800 us right here, the great one, the amazing Mark Levin. 2034 01:43:48.199 --> 01:43:50.600 You know I saw you retweet. Good friend of mine. 2035 01:43:50.640 --> 01:43:52.199 We did an event together in the city a couple 2036 01:43:52.239 --> 01:43:55.600 of weeks ago. Erin Mollin from Australia. She's great, she 2037 01:43:55.720 --> 01:43:59.399 really is great. And she was talking about Lindsey Graham, 2038 01:43:59.760 --> 01:44:03.039 so said when he passed away on Sunday. And look, 2039 01:44:03.119 --> 01:44:05.239 if you're a really, if you're a great American and 2040 01:44:05.359 --> 01:44:08.119 a patriot, you have to be destroyed over this. I 2041 01:44:08.239 --> 01:44:11.399 know the people that are celebrating, they're horrible people. And 2042 01:44:11.600 --> 01:44:15.319 this idea that Lindsey Graham was a warmonger. I gotta 2043 01:44:15.359 --> 01:44:18.199 tell you, Levin, he's a terrible guy. What kind of 2044 01:44:18.319 --> 01:44:22.159 decent person would stand up with the Ukrainians or the Israelis. 2045 01:44:22.359 --> 01:44:24.000 He must have been a terrible guy, right. 2046 01:44:24.000 --> 01:44:29.720 Mark, it's the same damnable woke right neo fascist isolationists 2047 01:44:30.439 --> 01:44:34.039 to really opposed the United States, to pose our military 2048 01:44:34.159 --> 01:44:39.359 and poss being a superpower, the number one superpower. Lindsey 2049 01:44:39.479 --> 01:44:45.359 Graham stood with our allies Israel, Taiwan, Ukraine. Lindsay Gram 2050 01:44:45.640 --> 01:44:52.840 stood against these vicious Marxist fascist Islamist dictators. He sees 2051 01:44:53.199 --> 01:44:56.439 ninety million people in Iran, he sees the Jews in 2052 01:44:56.720 --> 01:45:00.279 Israeli sees Ukrainians under attack, and he wants to help 2053 01:45:00.319 --> 01:45:02.600 and support them. How is that a warmonger when you're 2054 01:45:02.600 --> 01:45:07.720 supporting liberation movements, when you're supporting democracies against communists and 2055 01:45:07.800 --> 01:45:10.640 fascists and Islams. That's not We have to take the 2056 01:45:10.760 --> 01:45:14.239 language back, we have to take the arguments back. That's 2057 01:45:14.359 --> 01:45:18.199 not a warmonger. That is a humanitarian. The warmongers are 2058 01:45:18.239 --> 01:45:21.680 the enemy. The warmongers build up the military to attack us, 2059 01:45:21.800 --> 01:45:26.920 to attack our allies. They're the warmongers. Lindsey was a humanitarian, 2060 01:45:27.479 --> 01:45:29.319 and he spoke up for these people, and he met 2061 01:45:29.359 --> 01:45:31.479 their leaders and he gave them hope and so forth. 2062 01:45:31.560 --> 01:45:35.880 That's why his passing is mourned by the people of Iran. 2063 01:45:36.199 --> 01:45:38.439 His passing is mourned by the people of Israel, the 2064 01:45:38.560 --> 01:45:42.880 people of Ukraine, the people of Taiwan. These are our allies, 2065 01:45:43.479 --> 01:45:46.720 these are our supporters, and you can see the work right. 2066 01:45:47.079 --> 01:45:50.479 They're friendly with Katar, They're friendly with Saudi Arabia, They're 2067 01:45:50.520 --> 01:45:54.439 friendly with Putin. These are bad, stupid people. 2068 01:45:54.479 --> 01:45:58.600 They're not conservatives, well said, bad stupid people. I love 2069 01:45:58.680 --> 01:46:01.560 that they are, and they are growing in numbers, which 2070 01:46:01.640 --> 01:46:04.399 makes me nervous, kind of like the DSA and the Democrats. 2071 01:46:04.720 --> 01:46:06.760 But I gotta tell you again, you and I were 2072 01:46:06.760 --> 01:46:09.279 in Israel together not that long ago, and we know 2073 01:46:09.479 --> 01:46:12.880 that country well, so we know when people are lying 2074 01:46:13.039 --> 01:46:16.159 and all the genocidal nonsense and all the horrible things 2075 01:46:16.199 --> 01:46:19.840 said about Israel. And another guy that I mind just 2076 01:46:20.000 --> 01:46:23.960 completely detestable right there with maybe the worst politician like 2077 01:46:24.039 --> 01:46:29.079 Mamdani in this country is this ass Rocanna from California 2078 01:46:29.399 --> 01:46:31.880 who goes to Judea and Samaria, which of course he 2079 01:46:32.039 --> 01:46:35.159 calls the West Bank, and he goes there without telling anybody, 2080 01:46:35.439 --> 01:46:37.640 and then he makes up this whole ridiculous story like 2081 01:46:37.760 --> 01:46:40.760 Tucker Calson did about being detained when none of that 2082 01:46:41.000 --> 01:46:44.800 was true. I loved Mike Huckabee's response to what Rocanna 2083 01:46:44.920 --> 01:46:48.159 actually did a couple of days ago. But here it 2084 01:46:48.319 --> 01:46:53.880 is mark another example of a Democrat politician lying about 2085 01:46:54.119 --> 01:46:57.840 Israel and furthering all these horrible untruths. 2086 01:47:00.000 --> 01:47:03.199 So kind of a few years ago contacted Rich my 2087 01:47:03.319 --> 01:47:05.920 producer you know well, and said, look, I'm a moderate, 2088 01:47:06.000 --> 01:47:09.279 love him. He comes out of Silicon Valley. I want 2089 01:47:09.319 --> 01:47:11.039 to show you I can do both sides. And I 2090 01:47:11.079 --> 01:47:13.680 said to Rich, he's not coming on. This guy's a fraud. 2091 01:47:14.039 --> 01:47:16.960 I just sim he's a fraud, and he's a fraud. 2092 01:47:17.199 --> 01:47:23.199 So he's gone hardcore anti semi anti Israel, anti America. 2093 01:47:23.800 --> 01:47:27.439 He was a big supporter of this guy, and so forth. 2094 01:47:28.840 --> 01:47:32.239 Ro kind of there's three zones A, B and C. 2095 01:47:32.640 --> 01:47:36.760 The Jewish zone, the Israel Zona, C, Palestinian zone is 2096 01:47:37.159 --> 01:47:39.760 is A and then he is really no man's land. 2097 01:47:40.359 --> 01:47:43.439 And so what happened was he goes to Juday and Samaria, 2098 01:47:44.000 --> 01:47:47.039 but he's really hard working men and women are its 2099 01:47:47.039 --> 01:47:51.000 sparsely populated, uh, and right next door they could have 2100 01:47:51.439 --> 01:47:54.359 Palestinian terrorist because that's all they do with the terrorism, 2101 01:47:54.439 --> 01:47:58.760 and so forth, and he goes in he's got Palestinian guides, 2102 01:47:58.800 --> 01:48:03.319 he's got a very hostile guy. The photographer is anti Israel. 2103 01:48:03.920 --> 01:48:06.880 These are really pro Haamoque people. I would argue. He 2104 01:48:07.039 --> 01:48:11.640 goes into this militarily protected zone where he's not allowed 2105 01:48:11.680 --> 01:48:15.399 to go. He stopped first by some of the people 2106 01:48:15.439 --> 01:48:19.880 who are there, some of the Israelis. The police come, 2107 01:48:20.000 --> 01:48:22.840 they talk to him, The IDF comes, talks to him, 2108 01:48:22.920 --> 01:48:25.039 tells him he's in the wrong place at the wrong time. 2109 01:48:25.800 --> 01:48:29.279 We have a video thanks to him that that slug 2110 01:48:29.359 --> 01:48:32.680 he has was with and releases he was not detained, 2111 01:48:32.920 --> 01:48:35.880 he was not mistreated, he was not abused, he was 2112 01:48:35.960 --> 01:48:40.800 turned away. And he's lied about this ever since. These 2113 01:48:41.000 --> 01:48:44.680 Jew haters, these Israel haters, every damn one of them, 2114 01:48:44.800 --> 01:48:48.720 keep in mind, hates America too. They trash America, they 2115 01:48:48.840 --> 01:48:51.960 trash our military. They don't want to fund our military, 2116 01:48:52.039 --> 01:48:56.399 they just voted against it. They trash Israel, they trash Ukraine. 2117 01:48:56.920 --> 01:48:59.920 These are very very bad people, and the Democrat part. 2118 01:49:00.800 --> 01:49:03.920 Once it stood for slavery, once it stood for eugenics 2119 01:49:03.960 --> 01:49:09.279 and segregation. Now it stands for jew hatred and anti Americanism. 2120 01:49:09.720 --> 01:49:12.359 If you're a blue collar worker, if you're a union guy, 2121 01:49:12.800 --> 01:49:14.840 and you're a Democrat, you need to get the hell 2122 01:49:14.880 --> 01:49:18.119 out of that party. They hate your guts, They want 2123 01:49:18.159 --> 01:49:21.039 to destroy this country. If you're a patriarch, you need 2124 01:49:21.119 --> 01:49:23.199 to get the hell out of that party because that 2125 01:49:23.439 --> 01:49:24.760 party is now the enemy. 2126 01:49:25.439 --> 01:49:27.159 Phoebe was on a couple of days ago. We were 2127 01:49:27.159 --> 01:49:29.359 talking about Mom Donnie, and we all know, of course 2128 01:49:29.439 --> 01:49:33.479 that he's a raging anti Semite. Mark Levan him is vile, wretched, 2129 01:49:33.560 --> 01:49:37.159 disgusting wife, his father, his mother, they all hate the Jews. 2130 01:49:37.479 --> 01:49:39.439 But BB made the point for the polks that go 2131 01:49:39.640 --> 01:49:41.640 sit and up with Israel, I thought you were America purst, 2132 01:49:41.640 --> 01:49:44.399 which I am. BB made the point what you just made, 2133 01:49:44.479 --> 01:49:48.319 which is usually these anti Semites they try to hide it, 2134 01:49:48.840 --> 01:49:51.960 but they hate America too. And that brings me to BB. 2135 01:49:52.439 --> 01:49:55.039 Now he's won five of the last six elections. I 2136 01:49:55.119 --> 01:49:57.000 got to here all the time when people in New 2137 01:49:57.119 --> 01:49:59.600 York he he's done. It's all over. Everybody hates him 2138 01:49:59.600 --> 01:50:02.199 in New York, they hate him in Israel. He keeps winning. 2139 01:50:02.399 --> 01:50:04.560 I don't think that's true. But I did see a 2140 01:50:04.640 --> 01:50:06.720 poll a couple of days ago where he is in 2141 01:50:06.920 --> 01:50:09.000 second place. Some guy moved out of him. I don't care. 2142 01:50:09.279 --> 01:50:12.159 But that's happened before, and bb still finds a way 2143 01:50:12.199 --> 01:50:12.479 to win. 2144 01:50:12.600 --> 01:50:12.720 Now. 2145 01:50:12.760 --> 01:50:15.319 I saw your Twitter this morning and you talked about 2146 01:50:15.359 --> 01:50:19.039 the Arabs already trying to make sure that Bibi does 2147 01:50:19.199 --> 01:50:21.399 not win again. How serious is that? 2148 01:50:23.039 --> 01:50:29.640 The Arabs are actually running ads in Israel against Nedinyanrut Sodirabia, 2149 01:50:29.840 --> 01:50:33.920 Egypt and one of the other ones. So they want 2150 01:50:34.000 --> 01:50:39.039 bb out, The woke right wants bb out, the Hamas 2151 01:50:39.119 --> 01:50:41.880 supporting Islamis, Marxists want bb out. 2152 01:50:42.640 --> 01:50:43.600 Why do they want them out? 2153 01:50:44.359 --> 01:50:46.319 Because it's the strongest leader in the history of the 2154 01:50:46.399 --> 01:50:50.359 state of Israel. That's why. Because, as the President says, 2155 01:50:50.680 --> 01:50:54.600 unbelievable wartime prime Minister. The problem in Israel is it's 2156 01:50:54.640 --> 01:50:57.600 a constant state of war, not because of Israel, but 2157 01:50:57.640 --> 01:51:00.840 because the surrounding enemies they have there with is so horrific. 2158 01:51:01.680 --> 01:51:04.079 The fact of the matter is there is a Channel 2159 01:51:04.199 --> 01:51:07.520 fourteen poll from a poster who's more accric than the 2160 01:51:07.640 --> 01:51:09.880 others that shows him in the league good. But it's 2161 01:51:10.000 --> 01:51:14.000 very complicated there. It's like the Italian system, which is stupid. 2162 01:51:14.199 --> 01:51:14.399 Yep. 2163 01:51:15.159 --> 01:51:17.840 And so you got to put these coalitions together. You 2164 01:51:17.960 --> 01:51:21.039 need to get Ernie Robotsky over here and the Frank 2165 01:51:21.079 --> 01:51:23.119 Goldberg over there, and you got to get them together 2166 01:51:23.239 --> 01:51:25.520 and put your team together. So it's hard to know, 2167 01:51:25.640 --> 01:51:27.960 but he is not hated in Israel. There's some people 2168 01:51:28.119 --> 01:51:32.680 who hate him, but he's still the most popular public 2169 01:51:32.800 --> 01:51:34.880 figure in Israel period. 2170 01:51:35.199 --> 01:51:37.199 That's it. And I know you and I both agree 2171 01:51:37.319 --> 01:51:41.439 that what a special time to have President Trump running 2172 01:51:41.479 --> 01:51:44.159 our country and a lot of people call him the 2173 01:51:44.159 --> 01:51:47.399 Winston Churchill bbe Monning is. I know you got to run, 2174 01:51:47.479 --> 01:51:49.760 but one more for you. You mentioned the Democrat Party, 2175 01:51:50.119 --> 01:51:52.760 And here I am on forty ninth Street and third Avenue, 2176 01:51:52.840 --> 01:51:54.439 Mark in a city you know very well, in New 2177 01:51:54.520 --> 01:51:58.119 York City, which is being run by this Jieh hottist, 2178 01:51:58.880 --> 01:52:05.199 terrorist artist, socialist, communist mayor of this Mam Donnie, this lowlife. 2179 01:52:05.880 --> 01:52:08.039 But he's not the only one. And we're starting to 2180 01:52:08.079 --> 01:52:10.720 see there's nine different DSA people that have won in 2181 01:52:10.760 --> 01:52:13.600 New York, mark nine. New Jersey's got a bunch of 2182 01:52:13.680 --> 01:52:17.680 people winning. They're all over Michigan. They are spreading like 2183 01:52:17.800 --> 01:52:20.600 a cancer. I know they're not huge in numbers yet, 2184 01:52:20.760 --> 01:52:24.840 but they will multiply. And I'm a bit scared. I'm 2185 01:52:25.000 --> 01:52:27.159 told not to be because the numbers are not very 2186 01:52:27.199 --> 01:52:30.760 big right now, but they are multiplying. Shouldn't people be 2187 01:52:30.960 --> 01:52:33.359 more afraid of what may be ahead of us. 2188 01:52:35.239 --> 01:52:36.079 One percent? 2189 01:52:36.239 --> 01:52:40.920 People don't understand these big communist revolutions were started by 2190 01:52:40.960 --> 01:52:45.199 a minority. Lennon, about thirty percent of the population sported 2191 01:52:45.239 --> 01:52:48.479 to me took over a country. Now about twenty five 2192 01:52:48.560 --> 01:52:51.079 percent of the population supported him. He took over the 2193 01:52:51.199 --> 01:52:56.159 country in Cuba. It was Castro and about fifty eight euroas. 2194 01:52:56.319 --> 01:52:56.720 That was it. 2195 01:52:57.359 --> 01:52:59.159 With the help of the New York Times, and he 2196 01:52:59.279 --> 01:53:03.560 took over country. Revolutions don't occur from a majority. The 2197 01:53:03.680 --> 01:53:07.520 vast majority of Americans are patriotic. They're middle class. They 2198 01:53:07.640 --> 01:53:10.399 fight for this country, they argue for this country. But 2199 01:53:10.640 --> 01:53:14.920 things are swirling around. This minority is aggressive. They wake 2200 01:53:15.000 --> 01:53:17.000 up every morning trying to figure out how to overthrow 2201 01:53:17.079 --> 01:53:21.359 the country. And remember we're representative republic. So it's not 2202 01:53:21.720 --> 01:53:26.760 majoritarianism and democracy, it's republicanism. And if they take over 2203 01:53:26.840 --> 01:53:30.399 the levers of power like a communist grim Ski, an 2204 01:53:30.479 --> 01:53:33.840 Italian told them top down, not bottom up, you can 2205 01:53:33.960 --> 01:53:36.720 take over a country, and that is they've taken over 2206 01:53:36.840 --> 01:53:39.720 our biggest city. How much more do people need to see. 2207 01:53:40.119 --> 01:53:43.640 They've taken over Patterson, New Jersey, They've taken over Dearborn, Michigan. 2208 01:53:43.960 --> 01:53:46.399 It's one set at a time. They build these fortresses, 2209 01:53:46.960 --> 01:53:50.399 they teach you real law. They vote ninety seven percent. 2210 01:53:50.520 --> 01:53:53.520 The eboms get them out in the Democrat primaries where 2211 01:53:53.520 --> 01:53:56.079 you get twenty eight percent vote turn out, and they 2212 01:53:56.119 --> 01:53:59.159 come out ninety seven percent and they win these primaries. 2213 01:54:00.079 --> 01:54:01.119 I'm elected. 2214 01:54:01.279 --> 01:54:01.640 Is enough. 2215 01:54:02.039 --> 01:54:05.239 Our biggest city in the country has been taken over, 2216 01:54:05.800 --> 01:54:10.520 and they're depopulating it of Italians and Poles and Germans 2217 01:54:10.760 --> 01:54:13.960 and Irish and Jews and you name it, because he 2218 01:54:14.039 --> 01:54:15.560 wants to remake the city. 2219 01:54:16.880 --> 01:54:17.920 This is ground zero. 2220 01:54:18.319 --> 01:54:21.720 Literally, on the twenty fifth anniversary of nine to eleven. 2221 01:54:21.840 --> 01:54:23.680 It makes me sick to my stomach. 2222 01:54:25.000 --> 01:54:27.840 Seriously. I mean, just imagine we're going to see Rudy 2223 01:54:27.880 --> 01:54:31.520 Giuliani there, our friend Mark who was so heroic and 2224 01:54:32.119 --> 01:54:35.720 just amazing, and this guy's going to be standing next 2225 01:54:35.760 --> 01:54:39.600 to him, Mark Levin, Mam Donnie standing next to Rudy Giuliani. 2226 01:54:39.880 --> 01:54:41.840 That's gotta be enough to make your vomit right there. 2227 01:54:44.680 --> 01:54:46.960 It is shocking and it's appalling, and as New York 2228 01:54:47.079 --> 01:54:50.880 is depopulated of people who don't support Mandamie, and this 2229 01:54:51.000 --> 01:54:53.159 is what he hopes. It's going to be harder and 2230 01:54:53.239 --> 01:54:56.520 harder to feed him because he is literally changing the 2231 01:54:56.640 --> 01:55:00.920 demographics and the population in New York, aiming at the Jews, 2232 01:55:01.039 --> 01:55:03.680 He's aiming at the Italians, He's aiming at the Irish 2233 01:55:03.720 --> 01:55:07.359 and the Germans and the post He's doing these things purposely, 2234 01:55:08.199 --> 01:55:12.039 and people are not going to stay. And so what happens. 2235 01:55:12.399 --> 01:55:15.880 The replace for more islamis the replace with illegal aliens, 2236 01:55:15.920 --> 01:55:21.479 the replace with Democrats, and these Marxist Islamis are going 2237 01:55:21.520 --> 01:55:23.399 to run the city. I worry about it a lot. 2238 01:55:24.359 --> 01:55:26.199 Good that I'm not alone because I do too. And 2239 01:55:26.239 --> 01:55:28.560 I'm told those sid stop the numbers. And if Mark 2240 01:55:28.640 --> 01:55:30.960 Levan is what I said, you're wrong, thank you. I'm 2241 01:55:30.960 --> 01:55:32.960 gonna end this when I started this.

I've seen it in newspapers and 2498 02:07:29.600 --> 02:07:32.359 in interviews, and I go, all that means is I'm old, 2499 02:07:32.760 --> 02:07:34.560 Like you know, right, you never here a young guy 2500 02:07:34.640 --> 02:07:37.399 being called a legend, right, that means you're old basically. 2501 02:07:37.680 --> 02:07:37.800 Now. 2502 02:07:37.920 --> 02:07:40.479 Yeah, going back to your days at Michigan, you were 2503 02:07:40.560 --> 02:07:43.000 friendly with Tom Brady, right, Tom and. 2504 02:07:43.039 --> 02:07:44.840 I were there for four years together. Yeah, and then 2505 02:07:44.960 --> 02:07:48.079 in the summers we roomed together at times, and you 2506 02:07:48.119 --> 02:07:50.119 know it was just he was awesome. I mean, back 2507 02:07:50.159 --> 02:07:51.840 then he was just Tommy. You know, there was no 2508 02:07:52.000 --> 02:07:55.279 Tom Brady, you know, and he was just for a while, 2509 02:07:55.359 --> 02:07:57.760 he was our six string quarterback, and then he was 2510 02:07:57.840 --> 02:08:01.159 the backup and and he actually for me at Michigan, 2511 02:08:01.720 --> 02:08:04.079 you know, so for a while his most important job 2512 02:08:04.199 --> 02:08:06.520 was being my holder, not being the quarterback. 2513 02:08:06.600 --> 02:08:09.119 Right because I think Hankson was actually a quarterback at 2514 02:08:09.119 --> 02:08:09.439 the time. 2515 02:08:09.520 --> 02:08:09.640 Right. 2516 02:08:09.920 --> 02:08:12.600 Well, yeah, yeah, Brian Grease he started, and he and 2517 02:08:12.720 --> 02:08:16.399 Drew kind of split time when they were there, you know, 2518 02:08:16.479 --> 02:08:18.800 and Tom Tom would played the first quarter, Drew played 2519 02:08:18.800 --> 02:08:20.640 a second quarter, and then Lloyd Carr, who was our coach, 2520 02:08:20.680 --> 02:08:23.479 would make the change at halftime to whoever he wanted. 2521 02:08:23.520 --> 02:08:26.239 But you know, you could see some of the elements 2522 02:08:26.439 --> 02:08:28.000 of what was going to make Tom great. And the 2523 02:08:28.039 --> 02:08:30.800 biggest thing that you could see was his leadership ability, 2524 02:08:31.159 --> 02:08:33.439 you know, And that's what made him special at New 2525 02:08:33.520 --> 02:08:35.520 England is is one he you know, he was going 2526 02:08:35.600 --> 02:08:38.319 to work harder than everybody else. But two, he had 2527 02:08:38.359 --> 02:08:41.239 the humility to be able to allow, even when he 2528 02:08:41.319 --> 02:08:44.239 won Super Bowls, to allow Bill Belichick to be so 2529 02:08:44.479 --> 02:08:47.399 hard and tough on him, like like Bill was brutal 2530 02:08:47.479 --> 02:08:49.359 to him in those locker rooms, yeah, you know, and 2531 02:08:49.439 --> 02:08:51.119 when they were in the team meeting rooms. But it 2532 02:08:51.239 --> 02:08:53.199 set the tone for everybody else. If he's going to 2533 02:08:53.239 --> 02:08:55.439 talk like that to Tom Brady, to hold him accountable. 2534 02:08:55.720 --> 02:08:58.039 What's he gonna do to me? And you know, and 2535 02:08:58.159 --> 02:08:59.479 that set the tone for everyone else. 2536 02:09:00.159 --> 02:09:02.720 Brian Greasy and of course he won a championship at Michigan. 2537 02:09:03.199 --> 02:09:08.680 But Greasy was a quarterback for the Broncos September tenth, 2538 02:09:09.199 --> 02:09:11.399 two thousand and one, when they beat the hell out 2539 02:09:11.439 --> 02:09:14.159 of my New York Giants. Kerry Collins, he had gone 2540 02:09:14.159 --> 02:09:16.079 to the Super Bowl the year before, got blown out 2541 02:09:16.119 --> 02:09:19.079 by Baltimore. But the NFL rewarded my Giants with the 2542 02:09:19.119 --> 02:09:23.239 opening game Monday Night Football. And Jim Bossel, my late brand, 2543 02:09:23.319 --> 02:09:25.239 the great coach he is, to tell me this story 2544 02:09:25.279 --> 02:09:28.159 I played here every year that when the Giants pulled 2545 02:09:28.199 --> 02:09:30.319 in from Denver when Brian Grecy beat them the night 2546 02:09:30.359 --> 02:09:34.920 before at Newark Airport, that is, they were taxiing towards 2547 02:09:35.560 --> 02:09:40.760 their gate, the plane that would eventually crash in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, 2548 02:09:41.640 --> 02:09:44.359 was making their way towards a runway. How eerie is that? 2549 02:09:44.560 --> 02:09:48.000 J Phelly, Yeah, that was my rookie year. And you know, 2550 02:09:48.279 --> 02:09:50.600 obviously I'll never forget that. I never forget where I 2551 02:09:50.720 --> 02:09:54.439 was standing when we found out when we saw what happened, 2552 02:09:55.000 --> 02:09:57.720 and then they canceled the games that week, and then 2553 02:09:57.840 --> 02:10:00.000 we went out and played the next week. I would 2554 02:10:00.119 --> 02:10:02.159 wearing an Adidas shoe, and you think about the three 2555 02:10:02.279 --> 02:10:05.000 white stripes of Adidas, right, and I painted them red, 2556 02:10:05.039 --> 02:10:07.640 white and blue for that next game. We were actually 2557 02:10:07.640 --> 02:10:09.920 ironically out here in Arizona playing that next game. I 2558 02:10:10.000 --> 02:10:13.479 was playing for the Falcons, and I painted my shoe 2559 02:10:13.560 --> 02:10:15.439 for that game. We played that game. I never I 2560 02:10:15.560 --> 02:10:18.399 never did it again. I have it in my office 2561 02:10:18.479 --> 02:10:20.720 when I do interviews and you see me in the background. 2562 02:10:20.760 --> 02:10:22.760 That shoe is still sitting up there in my office. 2563 02:10:22.960 --> 02:10:25.640 It was the only game I wore it in a red, 2564 02:10:25.680 --> 02:10:27.840 white and blue and special to me, just like you 2565 02:10:27.920 --> 02:10:30.159 always say, like never forget. You're talking about the Tunnel 2566 02:10:30.159 --> 02:10:32.479 for Towers, and I love that organization. I do a 2567 02:10:32.520 --> 02:10:35.000 lot of their events, and we can't we can't ever 2568 02:10:35.079 --> 02:10:37.399 forget what happened. Oh we forgot, fortunate, but we did. 2569 02:10:37.439 --> 02:10:38.439 We forgot in New York. 2570 02:10:38.520 --> 02:10:39.600 You forgot it exactly. 2571 02:10:40.399 --> 02:10:43.680 You're implementing and advocating for exactly the opposite things, the 2572 02:10:43.800 --> 02:10:47.039 things that they that they were fighting for, those people 2573 02:10:47.439 --> 02:10:50.079 that that destroyed nine to eleven, and now you have 2574 02:10:50.199 --> 02:10:52.520 socialist in office there in New York that are advocating 2575 02:10:52.560 --> 02:10:54.960 for those very things, for the destruction of the American empire. 2576 02:10:55.239 --> 02:10:57.840 You just nailed that. Jay, We did forget You can 2577 02:10:57.960 --> 02:11:00.760 never wear those negos anymore because logic won't allow it. 2578 02:11:00.800 --> 02:11:02.439 I'm happy to let you do that. Back in two 2579 02:11:02.479 --> 02:11:04.920 thousand and one, the league has changed quite a bit, 2580 02:11:05.000 --> 02:11:07.000 the woke NFL. I still love the NFL. I watch 2581 02:11:07.039 --> 02:11:09.399 every second of the Giants in every game, but they've 2582 02:11:09.479 --> 02:11:12.479 changed quite a bit. But you're right, we forgot here. 2583 02:11:12.680 --> 02:11:16.880 And that's why you winning in Arizona is so important 2584 02:11:16.920 --> 02:11:21.479 for America, for President Trump, for the future of my party, 2585 02:11:21.520 --> 02:11:27.600 the Republican Party, Young, Strong, Smart, You're the guy, and 2586 02:11:27.680 --> 02:11:29.800 I don't know where you are today in terms of 2587 02:11:30.319 --> 02:11:33.439 what the numbers look like, how positive you all leading 2588 02:11:33.520 --> 02:11:35.800 up to this race in November. Getting endorsement from Trump 2589 02:11:36.159 --> 02:11:39.479 certainly helps, But what does it look like this morning 2590 02:11:39.880 --> 02:11:40.479 in your race? 2591 02:11:40.560 --> 02:11:40.720 Jay? 2592 02:11:41.479 --> 02:11:43.000 Yeah, this is going to be one of the most 2593 02:11:43.039 --> 02:11:45.479 important swing seats in the entire country. There's going to 2594 02:11:45.520 --> 02:11:47.600 be three to five seats that are going to determine 2595 02:11:48.000 --> 02:11:50.199 who wins the House and who controls the House. And 2596 02:11:50.359 --> 02:11:53.159 we know exactly what happens if the Democrats win and 2597 02:11:53.279 --> 02:11:55.720 control the House. They're going to impeach President Trump right away. 2598 02:11:56.600 --> 02:11:58.960 The four people that are running in the primary for 2599 02:11:59.079 --> 02:12:03.039 the Democrat in my race have literally said that that's 2600 02:12:03.079 --> 02:12:04.800 exactly what they're going to do. The first thing they 2601 02:12:04.840 --> 02:12:06.800 want to do is impeach President Trump because they don't 2602 02:12:06.800 --> 02:12:09.159 want him to be able to accomplish anything that he 2603 02:12:09.720 --> 02:12:13.119 that he was doing and that he's been able to 2604 02:12:13.920 --> 02:12:16.279 succeed in doing this first year and a half or 2605 02:12:16.319 --> 02:12:19.239 so in his term, and they're going to try to 2606 02:12:19.319 --> 02:12:22.359 make sure that he's not able to do that going forward, 2607 02:12:22.479 --> 02:12:24.840 and they want to peach him. And you know, for me, 2608 02:12:25.439 --> 02:12:29.159 this seat is so important. It's a Republican seat, it's 2609 02:12:29.199 --> 02:12:32.399 an R plus one seat, and they're going to make 2610 02:12:32.479 --> 02:12:34.800 sure that they spend as much as possible to try 2611 02:12:34.800 --> 02:12:36.399 and buy it. So they're going to spend, say, thirty 2612 02:12:36.439 --> 02:12:38.159 million dollars on this seat alone. It will be the 2613 02:12:38.279 --> 02:12:40.880 most expensive congressional seat in the country. It's one of 2614 02:12:40.880 --> 02:12:42.640 the reasons I wanted to run was to make sure 2615 02:12:42.680 --> 02:12:45.079 that we keep this seat, and we keep the House, 2616 02:12:45.119 --> 02:12:48.039 and we're able to continue to fight against this socialist movement. 2617 02:12:48.039 --> 02:12:50.359 Because that's what now I think the American people are 2618 02:12:50.399 --> 02:12:52.600 going to see that you have two choices. You have 2619 02:12:52.680 --> 02:12:55.760 one choice of the rational that wants America to win, 2620 02:12:55.880 --> 02:12:58.399 and you have one choice of the irrational that is 2621 02:12:58.439 --> 02:13:01.319 embracing socialism and that want America to lose. And you 2622 02:13:01.439 --> 02:13:04.039 can look exactly at your governor. You know Kathy Hochel 2623 02:13:04.159 --> 02:13:06.640 and what she just did. She just did a one 2624 02:13:06.720 --> 02:13:10.560 year moretorium on data storage centers. And even Chuck Schumer 2625 02:13:10.920 --> 02:13:13.000 there in New York in the last year has talked 2626 02:13:13.000 --> 02:13:15.319 about how important it is that we win the AI 2627 02:13:15.479 --> 02:13:19.000 race against China, because either China wins or we win, 2628 02:13:19.399 --> 02:13:22.079 and whoever wins that AI race is going to control 2629 02:13:22.159 --> 02:13:24.439 the world's economy for the next generation, going to control 2630 02:13:24.479 --> 02:13:28.479 the world's security for the next generation. And by doing 2631 02:13:28.600 --> 02:13:31.199 what your governor just did, and if we do that 2632 02:13:31.319 --> 02:13:35.319 across the country and we continue to resist and push 2633 02:13:35.439 --> 02:13:38.560 back and have moratoriums on data storage centers, that is 2634 02:13:38.600 --> 02:13:41.399 where the compute ability is. That's what runs all of 2635 02:13:41.439 --> 02:13:44.279 your AI, all of our phones, all of our Internet searches, 2636 02:13:44.279 --> 02:13:46.479 all the TikTok and the kids like to use. It's 2637 02:13:46.600 --> 02:13:50.359 derived from that data storage centers that computability, and all 2638 02:13:50.439 --> 02:13:52.399 it does is help China, and that's what we need 2639 02:13:52.479 --> 02:13:53.079 to fight against. 2640 02:13:53.239 --> 02:13:55.760 We need Booce Blateman to win. He's running for governor 2641 02:13:55.800 --> 02:13:58.680 in the state against that dreaded Kathy Hokel. My son Gable, 2642 02:13:58.760 --> 02:14:01.880 my only son, is actually working for Bruce. Today's day 2643 02:14:01.960 --> 02:14:04.960 three for Gabriel. So you're right about Kathy and Mom, 2644 02:14:05.079 --> 02:14:07.560 Donnie and all the leaders here, and it is spreading 2645 02:14:07.640 --> 02:14:10.399 like wildfire. People keep telling me, oh, Sid, the numbers 2646 02:14:10.439 --> 02:14:13.000 aren't big enough yet. I asked Mark Levin, the great one. 2647 02:14:13.000 --> 02:14:15.399 He was on this show last hour. I said, am 2648 02:14:15.439 --> 02:14:19.239 I being crazy because I'm actually nervous? He said, no, Sid, 2649 02:14:19.520 --> 02:14:22.880 You're one hundred percent right. Forget about moderate Democrats. They 2650 02:14:22.880 --> 02:14:25.880 don't exist anymore. There's no such thing. There are no 2651 02:14:26.159 --> 02:14:29.439 right that's over. So like, for example, President Trump said 2652 02:14:29.840 --> 02:14:32.640 j Bially, this guy is not going to push the 2653 02:14:32.760 --> 02:14:36.800 Save America Act. He said that what normal person, all 2654 02:14:36.880 --> 02:14:39.680 these Democrats. You couldn't go to Chicago a couple of 2655 02:14:39.800 --> 02:14:42.720 years ago, Jay and walk into that convention to see 2656 02:14:42.800 --> 02:14:46.199 that decrepit cadaver Joe Biden without a piece of ID. 2657 02:14:46.720 --> 02:14:48.760 Chuck Schumer can't go to the library in New York 2658 02:14:48.840 --> 02:14:52.439 City without showing ID. You can't go anywhere without showing ID. 2659 02:14:52.800 --> 02:14:55.239 But they don't want to Save America Act. Can you 2660 02:14:55.319 --> 02:14:56.119 explain that to me? 2661 02:14:57.159 --> 02:14:59.239 No, you can't explain it. And it was amazing when 2662 02:14:59.279 --> 02:15:03.000 I heard up with Democrats say it'll be very clearly said, 2663 02:15:03.359 --> 02:15:05.960 it'll be very hard for any Democrat to win an 2664 02:15:06.000 --> 02:15:09.000 election if they pass the Save America Act. Now, why 2665 02:15:09.199 --> 02:15:11.560 is that? Why is it that that would make it hard? 2666 02:15:11.600 --> 02:15:14.520 All you're trying to do is say that only Americans 2667 02:15:14.520 --> 02:15:18.760 should be voting in our elections, and one person, one vote, 2668 02:15:18.800 --> 02:15:20.720 and the people that are registered just making sure that 2669 02:15:20.800 --> 02:15:23.680 it is that person. Why would that keep Democrats from 2670 02:15:23.760 --> 02:15:27.640 winning elections? It's ridiculous and it's an eighty percent issue. 2671 02:15:27.880 --> 02:15:30.319 It's something I've been really disappointed about the Senate, the 2672 02:15:30.399 --> 02:15:33.399 Republican controlled Senate, that they haven't pushed that forward and 2673 02:15:33.560 --> 02:15:36.199 got it enacted so that we can make sure that 2674 02:15:36.319 --> 02:15:38.760 going into this election in November, that only Americans are 2675 02:15:38.840 --> 02:15:41.279 voting and that's only people who should vote in our elections. 2676 02:15:41.600 --> 02:15:44.199 Bottom line, Jape for people that want to help you out, 2677 02:15:44.279 --> 02:15:48.079 who Giant bans, jet bans, Michigan fans, and even people 2678 02:15:48.199 --> 02:15:51.000 like Kyrie Lake listening from Arizona right now. How can 2679 02:15:51.039 --> 02:15:52.680 they help out the Jbaly campaign? 2680 02:15:53.239 --> 02:15:55.840 Well, the best thing you do go to Jfeeley Forcongress 2681 02:15:55.920 --> 02:15:58.000 dot com. You can go on there, you can donate 2682 02:15:58.039 --> 02:16:00.199 to us. We have to continue to raise as much 2683 02:16:00.279 --> 02:16:01.720 as we can because they're going to try to just 2684 02:16:01.760 --> 02:16:03.880 buy this seat. And then you can get involved. You know, 2685 02:16:04.039 --> 02:16:06.800 people are coming out. We have volunteers every day. Said 2686 02:16:06.840 --> 02:16:09.039 we've done in July alone, We've knocked on like ten 2687 02:16:09.119 --> 02:16:11.920 thousand doors out here and made like eighty thousand calls. Wow, 2688 02:16:12.000 --> 02:16:13.720 you know, And that's what you have to do. You 2689 02:16:13.880 --> 02:16:16.239 have to make sure that the Democrats don't outwork you, 2690 02:16:16.479 --> 02:16:18.920 that they don't outspend you, because we have the right 2691 02:16:19.000 --> 02:16:21.039 ideas and we need to be able to communicate those 2692 02:16:21.079 --> 02:16:23.119 ideas and a lot of times as Republicans we don't 2693 02:16:23.119 --> 02:16:24.960 have the right messengers. Hopefully I can be one of 2694 02:16:25.000 --> 02:16:28.039 those messengers that that cares about people, that wants to 2695 02:16:28.119 --> 02:16:30.520 create eqal opportunity, but that's going to stand up for 2696 02:16:30.600 --> 02:16:32.200 the things that made America great. 2697 02:16:32.399 --> 02:16:35.159 You are that guy.
