Speaker 1 (00:00):
Okay, my friends, A couple lines are open if you
want to jump on. Six one seven two six six
sixty eight sixty eight is the number. This is from
six one seven. You can text the coooner Man seven
zero four seven zero seven zero four seven zero Jeff.
No doubt in my mind, the Democrat media is the

(00:24):
number one influencer for Democrat ideology and it's incredibly powerful.
The platforms may be diminishing, but the ideology is pervasive
and persistent. Weak minds fall into the trap. Just because

(00:45):
something is called the news doesn't mean it's the truth. Bingo.
And I gotta say, I think the most powerful asset
that the Democrats still have is the met because it's
still all pervasive. You can see many many moonbats. Democrats

(01:09):
liberals fall for their lies, hook line and sinker. And
that's why we have to smash the fake news media.
I think there's no question. And look, let me just
give you an example. President Trump now is saying we
have to have law and order in the United States,

(01:31):
and right away the media saying fashism. He's a dictator,
that says Hitler. No, no country in the world can
survive without law and order. It's the basis of freedom,
it's the basis of prosperity, it's the basis of civilization.

(01:53):
No law in order, nothing else works. And so President
Trump is now is saying, look, you won't allow me
to deport these illegal aliens and criminals. Remember these are
people convicted of rape and murder to a supermax prison
in El Salvador. Well, I'll tell you what I'm gonna

(02:17):
then start to either build new massive jails and prisons
here or renovate and upgrade some of the old, outdated ones.
And one of the most infamous is, of course Alcatraz
just outside of San Francisco, as you know, the famous

(02:38):
prison surrounded by water. You know, made into a movie
where it was almost impossible to escape from Alcatraz because
even if you got out of the prison, nobody could
survive the currents the cold water there. I guess there's
some sharks. Even so, the few that made it out
either died as they fell all the way to the

(03:01):
or if they managed to go into the water, they
couldn't last more than twenty minutes before they died of hypothermia. Well,
President Trump now says he wants to reopen Alcatraz, but
obviously it. You know, it was falling apart. Its infrastructure

(03:21):
was decaying, and that's one of the major reasons why
they closed it down. It was getting too old. Trump says, no, no, no, no,
We're gonna modernize it. We're gonna renovate it, We're gonna
upgrade and revamp it. But we're gonna bring it back,
and we're gonna send some of the most hardened criminals,

(03:44):
both American and illegals. If you don't want me to
send them to El Salvador, you don't want me to
send them to Gitmo, I'll send them to places like Alcatraz.
And if these animals want to try to escape, let
the sharks in the water eat them up. Let them
eat them alive. In other words, it's time to bring

(04:08):
back some of those prisons where when you went to jail,
it was hard time that you were serving. These were
uncomfortable prisons with uncomfortable conditions, surrounded by menacing circumstances, in

(04:29):
this case, an ocean cold, very cold, by the way,
and who knows what's in that water, So the prisoners
knew they were on an island, and if they tried
to even bother to escape, they were definitely falling to
their doom. So my question to you is this. In fact,

(04:52):
it's the Cooner Country Pole Question of the Day sponsored
by Marios Marios Roofing and Windows. Should Trump reopen Alcatraz?
He now says he wants to reopen it? Is it
a good idea? Do you support it? A? Yes, B no.

(05:18):
I want to hear from you, Kooner Country. You can
vote on our web page wrko dot com slash Cooner
wrko dot com slash Cooner. Kuh And is in national Er.
You can also vote via x. I'm very active again,
like last night my handle on x all one word

(05:40):
at the Cooner report. Kuh And is in national Er.
Is it time to reopen Alcatraz? Now? Many people are
against it, many liberals, many democrats, many soft on crime advocates,
saying that Alcatraz had a notorious reputation there. The prison guards,

(06:04):
the wardens, the corrections officers were known to be very
brutal on prisoners, that the conditions are almost dungeon like.
People don't know this about San Francisco. It's cold, I
know you, guya, said Jeff. It's southern California. How the
hell can it be cold. I remember, it's what I'm

(06:26):
sorry forgive me, forgive me in northern California. But it's California.
How can it be cold? Jeff? And you know, I
remember I was in a second year of my PhD
program and I had a professor from San Francisco, and
he said, hey, Jeff, you want to take a couple
of days off in the summer, go to San Francisco.

(06:47):
I said, oh, I don't want to roast, you know.
I said, it's going to be so hot. It's gonna
be sweltering heat. You know, it's California. He said, boy,
you don't know San Francisco. He goes, I grew up
in the Bay Area. He goes, Oh, it's actually quite cool. Really,
he goes, yeah, especially in the winter time, but even
in the summer. Six one seven two six six sixty eight.

(07:07):
Sixty eight is the number. Okay. A lot of you
expressing mixed opinions on reopening Alcatraz, which is where Trump
wants to send really two classes of criminals one uh, murderers,
rapists American citizens. They're not I'm not talking illegals yet,

(07:29):
but the worst of the worst. Send them to a dark, damp,
cold menacing prison surrounded by you know, ocean in the
Bay Area, surrounded by water, and it's very isolating. A
prisoners say, it's very difficult to be at Alcatraz. So

(07:50):
Trump says, to the worst of the worst, we need
to send them to a notorious prison, so a they
pay for their punished, they get punished for their crime properly,
there's real justice, meet it out, and to act as
a deterrent. He also wants to open up Alcatraz in
order to send some of the worst of the illegals

(08:12):
MS thirteen trender Aragua. If I can't send them to
El Salvador and I can't send him to getm then
let me send them to Alcatraz. So many of you
are expressing mixed views on this. This is from Mark
on messenger Jeff, I'm all for reopening Alcatraz. In fact,

(08:37):
it should be designated as the official prison for all
corrupt politicians, judges, and das only, although Fauci should be
the first resident and let them all rot together on
the rock. So Mark says, you know what, No, Jeff,

(09:02):
I want it for politicians. I wanted for the corrupt das.
I want it for judges and people like Fauci, corrupt bureaucrats.
Send them all together and you can suffer an Alcatraz.
Dolores disagrees. Good morning, Jeff, No for Alcatraz. Send all

(09:24):
of these criminal, illegal aliens back to their own country.
I don't want our tax dollars taking care of them.
Six one seven two sixty six sixty eight sixty eight. Okay?
Should Trump be building these menacing supermax prisons here in

(09:47):
the United States? And in particular, he says Alcatraz. We're
gonna upgrade it, We're gonna renovate it, We're gonna make
all the improvements that need to you know that need
to be made. But I want it reopened. Are you
four or against? Six one seven two six six sixty

(10:08):
eight sixty eight. Kathy in Denvers, Thanks for holding Kathy,
and welcome.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
Well you sound much better.

Speaker 1 (10:18):
Oh, thank you, Kathy. Slowly but surely. Yes, the antibiotics,
the medication is kicking in.

Speaker 2 (10:26):
You sound great.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
Thank you, Tom.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
I think Trump is doing a wonderful job, and as
far as Alcatraz it goes, Yes, open it up. But
I want to see them do one thing. I want
to see them find out if there were actually three
hundred thousand children missing under Biden's watch. I want to
find out who took them, where they took them, how
much money they made, and then throw whoever it is,

(10:52):
whether it Bengos, charities, throw them in Alcatraz. And as
far as the Democrat partty goes and the me they
have one question. Do they want to be cremated or buried?

Speaker 1 (11:06):
Kathy? I'm just curious. Fauci, are you disappointed? I know
Biden did this ridiculous preemptive pardon. It now looks like
it was done by auto pen, which means it was
an illegitimate, invalid pardon. I'm just amazed at how Republicans
are refusing to go after Fauci. They're even afraid to

(11:29):
put them under oath where he can lie commit perjury.
In other words, there's many ways to go after Fauci,
but they're almost taking the attitude while he's gone, so
let them retire into the sunset. Is that the attitude
that you think Republicans and the Trump administration should have.

Speaker 2 (11:50):
Well, I think the Republicans in the Senate have a
different ideals than the President does.

Speaker 3 (11:57):
They're not working with them.

Speaker 2 (11:58):
We know that, and something I mean that's the only
positive or that's the only thing I can figure out
is why they aren't working with him, why they aren't
working for the American people, you know. I mean, we
still have Obamacare, they're not on it, but I know

(12:21):
my child has a family of four with a four
thousand dollars deductible before insurance kicks in. But Senate and
Congress they don't have Affordable Care Act, so you have
no you know what, they're complicit in making money and
not for the American people where Trump is and I'll
say Marco Rubio is too. Wow, that's it, you know.

(12:45):
But I'd like to find out where the three hundred
thousand children went, because.

Speaker 1 (12:51):
Oh, you're right, no, come on, look, I mean, niece,
these children were sold into slavery, they were trafficked, they've
been molested, they've been rape, they've been abused. Word, did
you know? I want to know, and I want to
know who bottom. I want to know if they're still alive.
I want to rescue as many of them as possible.
And I agree with you, throw every single one of

(13:13):
those people that engage in this human trafficking, this sex
trafficking of children, throw the book at him. Right into Alcatraz,
right into Alcatraz life, no parole none, Kathy, thank you
very much for that call. And let me just add
one other thing, the Epstein files, because it all ties together.

(13:37):
What's happened to the Epstein files? Okay, you don't want
to arrest anybody, Well, how about release the Epstein files?
What are you afraid of? Release the files? And again,
Bondi's been sitting on it and sitting on it and
sitting on it, and now it begs the question, what
is she afraid of? Six one seven two, six sixty

(14:01):
eight sixty eight and people that were involved with Epstein
and what they did to underage children, they also should
be sent to Alcatraz. Agree, disagree? John in New Hampshire,
thanks for holding John, and welcome.

Speaker 3 (14:21):
Good morning, Jeff. Hi, try to hear about your Sorry
about your dad. I wanted to just call him because
we're talking about funding the old prison and I'm wondering, like,
who's going to work there. We can't even fill local
jails with people. Nobody wants to work there, and who's
going to want to take a boat over to work
every day. It's going to cost us a fortune to

(14:42):
run that place. Probably just like who's.

Speaker 1 (14:45):
A ferry to write the ferry to go back and forth? Right?

Speaker 3 (14:49):
I mean, we can't get people to work at the
local Middlesex County and some of the other jails around here,
especially in Rockingham, they're having a hot time recruiting people.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
Well, look, John, I got a I'm very happy you called.
I really am, because look, I love corrections officers. Please.
I don't want anybody to think that I have any
dis you know, I'm disrespecting them. Quite the contrary. I
say the same thing about corrections officers that I say
about police officers. I don't know who'd want to do
the job today. It's a very noble job, it's a

(15:22):
very necessary job. It's a dangerous job, but under today's circumstances,
I don't know who'd want to do it here. Just
to give you an example, and I'm sure you know
this story better than I do. A couple days ago
in Virginia, in Virginia, Okay, at a state prison, five

(15:43):
not one, not two, not even three, five ms thirteen
gang bangers, in a deliberate, premeditated attack, viciously stabbed three
three corrections officers, some of them, by the way, very

(16:04):
I mean, they're never going to be able to function again.
I'm talking. You know, they're getting stabbed in the eye,
they're getting their throat slit, and even if they recover,
they're like they wake up, you know whatever, crippled or
with neurological disorders because they've lost so much air or
blood flow. What I'm saying is, and you know, three

(16:26):
of them were viciously attacked by MS thirteen. These are
the kinds of animals that we have in our prison system.
Mike was just asking me off air, well, Jeff, what
if AOC wins the election in twenty twenty eight, or
you know, Gavin Newsome or whatever some crazy moonbat. Did

(16:47):
you ever think that, if you know they reopen Alcatraz,
that the Democrats may send you to Alcatraz, you know,
under the guise of I don't know, you're you're a
political terror. Now you know, you're a threat to the Republic.
I'm like, Mike, I didn't think of that. He goes,

(17:10):
I'm just saying, you could be doing the show. You know,
it's no longer Jeff Cooner's Boston Bulldozer could be Jeff
Cooner from Alcatraz, the rock Breaker. He goes. I'm just
saying I said, you know, Mike, when you phrase it
like that, maybe I am against the reopening of Alcatraz. Hey,
I couldn't do a week in I'm telling you I

(17:31):
couldn't do a week in any prison. What week? I
couldn't do twenty four hours in any prison? And I
mean the most minimum security prison imaginable. As I told Mike,
I go, Mike, Hey, whoa, whoa, Mike, I'm no tough guy.
I'm no tough guy in prison with those guys. Did
they eat me alive? What are you crazy? Never mind Alcatraz.

(17:54):
I confess whatever. What do you want me to confess to.
I'll confess. I'll sign anything, just don't send me six
one seven through six six sixty eight sixty eight. So
you know, I'm not so sure now that I want
to reopen Alcatraz. Kathy in Rochester, thanks for holding Kathy,

(18:15):
and welcome.

Speaker 4 (18:16):
Good morning, Jeff Jess. I tried to go on your poll,
but I'm not on X so I wasn't able to vote.
But I you know he can open Alcatraz. But you know,
I think putting politicians and putting foci there is a
great idea but as far as the illegals, I say,
no way in those illegals that stabbed got prison guards,

(18:37):
they should get the death penalty. Well, we need to
bring back is the death penalty because I for one,
do not want to be paying for these creatures to
be in any facility whatsoever. It's too costly. We don't
have the manpower. We shouldn't have to subject prison guards
to you know, to these animals. And I hate to
say animals because I love animals. Animals are so intelligent.

(18:59):
To these scumbags, I guess there's a good word for them.
But the death penalty, you know, the death penalty really
will curb any kind of crime criminals because they think
about WHOA, I could get killed if I get caught
doing this, and they'll come to a complete halt. So,
I mean, we've voted for the death penalty in this state,
and again our politicians did not instate it. So once

(19:22):
again they go against the wishes of the voters in
this state. I don't know, did you see Stephen Lynch
a rally that he had in Quincy for like American workers.
You know, these democrats they are just like insane. They
do nothing at all, is Donald Trump wanting to bring
back jobs to the United States, and it's like, Stephen Lynch,

(19:44):
what are you talking about? Where's your mind?

Speaker 1 (19:49):
Well, I mean Lynch, look, Lynch sold his soul a
long time ago. I mean, I'm being very frank. Lynch
is someone who took the money, claimed to be a
pro life democrat, abandoned every principle he had. He was
supposed to be a blue dog Democrat, a moderate pro
life democrat, and he went where the wind blew, and

(20:11):
the wind blew to the radical left. And so that's
Stephen Lynch in a nutshell. But no, Cathy, I think
your larger point is a thousand percent spot on. I
think mass murderers, gang bangers, and terrorists deserve the death penalty,
and I think illegal aliens, in particular MS thirteen trender Aragua.

(20:34):
If you won't let us deport him, fine, we'll hang them.
Like I'm sorry, this is getting ridiculous, and well why
not incarcerate him. We'll ask those prison guards in Virginia.
And again I want to stress this, this wasn't even
like some kind of a jail brawl, you know, some
kind of a crazy prison fight. And then the guards

(20:55):
tried to break it up and they accidentally got hurt. No,
it was a pre meditated attack, and they targeted three
of these guards at that state prison. And I mean they,
I mean they were viciously, repeatedly brutally stabbed. These people
are savages. They're savages. They're not reformable. That's what the

(21:21):
bouquet from El Salvador keeps saying, what do you mean
rehabilitate them? Have you ever met one of them? If
they could eat you, they would eat you. He goes, No,
one hundred years, no parole in jail. That's our sentence
in El Salvador. And they hate the conditions and that's
why they've cleaned up crime. Well, okay, we don't want

(21:41):
to do that. I agree with you. The electric chair
and it's going to be a deterrent and we're gonna
save a lot of money in the process. And you
know my dog Rocky, Oh really, I was just playing
with the rockster all weekend. Wouldn't hurt a fly? Like
You're right, Comparing them to animals is an insult. Animals
