Speaker 1 (00:00):
Six one seven two, six, six, sixty eight sixty eight
is the number. Okay, I'm gonna hold off on the calls.
We've got a guest on that I planned for eight
o'clock and I'm finally happy we made contact with him.
He is a whistleblower. He is an incredibly courageous man

(00:22):
who is blowing the whistle on the state of the
migrant shelters here in Massachusetts. Please, you've got to listen
to what he's saying. John Featherstone gave an interview recently
to The Daily Wire. He used to be a director
of a migrant shelter here in Massachusetts from the summer

(00:44):
of twenty twenty three to basically, I believe the summer
or fall of twenty twenty four. He saw firsthand what
Mora Heey's hotels and motels for these migrants are. You're
not gonna believe what he has this covered and what
he is now revealing and joining me now is John
Featherstone himself. John, how are you?

Speaker 2 (01:09):
Good morning, Jeff, and good morning Cooner country. I'm happy
to be here. But before we start talking, everybody, find
out where your spouse is and where your kids are,
because more Healy is not protecting your kids and your
loved ones in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts this morning.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
Now, John, why of course I agree with you, But
why would you say that. I know you were the
director of a migrant shelter at the Holiday Inn in Marlborough,
and you say what you saw and witnessed firsthand will
shock not just every citizen and taxpayer in Massachusetts, but

(01:50):
every citizen and taxpayer across the country. Please elaborate.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
Well, Jeff, I personally was aware of multiple raps inside
the Heally Hotels so much that so much that DCF
removed a teenage girl from the shelter when the father
admitted that he was having sex with his daughter and

(02:17):
she was she was pregnant. Ah, And rather than that
gentleman being arrested, they had me transfer him via an
uber from Middlesex County to Worcester County. And I've been
a longtime local politician, you know, I was the chairman
of the Board of Selection, and I've held you know,

(02:40):
multiple positions and governments. I'm not an expert, but I'm
pretty wise about how laws work in Conowell. So I
literally say, if we transfer him from Middlesex to Worcester.
No DA will ever touch this this, you know crime.
Just do it. Why isn't he being arrested. Just put
him in a cab. We'll figure it all out. Okay,

(03:01):
I don't think we figured it all out, so that
man is still walking the streets. And I literally said,
at that time, you're going to transfer a known rapist,
a man who admitted that he had sex with his
own daughter, to another shelter and give him an opportunity
to rape people.

Speaker 3 (03:15):
Again.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
There was another incident where.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
John, sorry, just before you this is wow, wow, wow wow.
Apparently this girl was what fourteen years old? Correct?

Speaker 2 (03:29):
I think she's fourteen now, if I'm not mistaken, she
was thirteen, fourteen at you know, thirteen, maybe close to
being fourteen at the time that time.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
So she was thirteen at the time. She's being raped
repeatedly by her own father. And John my understanding, and again,
you tell me if this is correct. She it wasn't
just some accusation. She admitted that she was raped by
her father so much so then I believe what DCF
stepped in and took her away from the father.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
Correct, correct, hundred processions.

Speaker 1 (04:01):
And you're saying, and you're saying, Jeff, that's not the
only one. There's more. Please continue, John.

Speaker 3 (04:08):
There's more.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
There was another girl who, when first question about it
by me and the schools, said that she was having
consensual sex with a twenty nine year old man. She
was sixteen at the time. And then, you know, after
the parents kind of you know, talked to the daughter.
You know, you know, teenage girls not going to admit
to her parents that you know, she's doing stuff like that. Uh.

(04:31):
The father reached out to me and said, hey, no,
she's now admitted it was not consensual. Uh, I want
you to call the police. I want to get the
police involved. So we got the police involved again. They
came out, they took statements, they took a report. I
ended up driving the girl personally to the police station
so she could give a statement as well, and then

(04:53):
I drove her to the Westborough Court to get a
restraining order against him. And to the best of my
knowledge today, that man is still walking the streets as well.

Speaker 1 (05:07):
This is this is obscene. I mean, honestly, this is
beyond disgusting. Why won't they Why John, why won't the
police arrest these these are rapists? Why won't they arrest
these men and put them behind bars. What are they
so afraid of? John Well?

Speaker 2 (05:29):
You know, Jeff, here's the thing, and thank you for
having me on this morning to discuss this personal topic.
What is the local media afraid of? This is a
national news story that even the local media other than
you and a few others won't even touch.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
And here's the interesting thing, because I've talked to a
lot of reporters in the last you know, a couple
of months about this. Nobody from the state denies what
I'm saying. Nobody denies what I'm saying. Nobody returns phone
calls to the police for comment on this situation. It's
just a total lockdown because it's true, and nobody wants

(06:05):
to discuss it because they know the situation is so horrible.
They just pray that it'll go away. It's not going
to go away, Jess.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
Why do you think the Boston Globe, the Boston Herald,
Channel four, Channel five seven, ten twenty five WGBH. I
could go on, why is there a conspiracy of silence
among the media in this city and in this state.
What's your theory, John Well?

Speaker 2 (06:35):
I have to be fair. I have to give kudos.
I think Boston Herald's worked real hard to get this
story out, but nobody's cooperating with them. That being said,
no other media outlet is working the story is hard
working a story hard. I would have to think they're
under orders from the governor, right, I mean, whatn't common
sense tell you that?

Speaker 1 (06:56):
That's incredible? That's incredible, John. We've got about a minute left.
I can I hold you over for another segment?

Speaker 2 (07:05):
Absolutely?

Speaker 1 (07:05):
Okay, John, what did you besides these rapes? Apparently I read?
Is this true that some migrant took a car and
literally drove it into your office and smashed your office
and almost hit you or did hit you? Is that true?

Speaker 2 (07:27):
That is one hundred percent true. Unforseately, the only reason
I'm alive and talking to you this morning is because
the air conditioning heating unit stopped his car, because not
only did he hit them my office once he backed
up and tried to come through the wall again. Why,
you know, at the time, when I pulled myself up

(07:47):
off the floor and was picking strays out of my
head and you know, trying to figure out what was
going on, I was just you know, I assume this
guy was just a knucklehead and didn't have a driver's
license and didn't know how to drive. After all the
dust settled, you know, people would come up to me
in the hall. You know he did that on purpose.

Speaker 1 (08:05):
Please, you've got to continue to listen to this multo
importante interview, Very important interview now Newsmaker interview where with
John Featherstone F E T h E r st N.
He was the director of a migrant shelter for about

(08:25):
a year in Marlborough and he dealt directly with these migrants.
He talked about how there were rapes that took place
in the migrant shelter fourteenth child rapes, child sexual assaults.
No one was arrested, even though the children were taken

(08:46):
away from the custody in one case of a father
who was repeatedly raping a thirteen fourteen year old girl,
another one victimizing a high school student. Near the holiday inn,
there was a high school twenty nine year old man
raping a sixteen year old girl and the authorities refuse
to arrest the migrants. Then one day John is sitting

(09:10):
in his office minding his own business. One of the
migrants literally takes his car and slams it drives it
right into the office. And as John said, if it
wasn't for the air conditioning and the heating system, he
would be dead today. He thought it was just a
migrant who couldn't drive. He says, that's not the case.

(09:32):
They told him inside the shelter that person wanted to
kill you. John. Please pick up where you left off.

Speaker 2 (09:40):
Thank you, Jeff. Yeah, I mean you laid it out
perfectly there, you know.

Speaker 4 (09:45):
And when one.

Speaker 2 (09:46):
Person told me, I was like, okay, you know that's crazy.
But then another person, you know totally you know, not
associated with him, said, you know, they're mad at you
because you're taking away diapers and formula from them. And
let me be perfectly clear. First, I wasn't taking diapers
or a formula away from anybody because when people check
into the shelter because the rights of Shelter law said,

(10:07):
you know, you have to have children to be in
the right to shelter system. And we can talk about
how more heally's misinterpreted that. But the shelter was required
to provide diapers and formula to people who had just
arrived in country, didn't have any you know, didn't have
a job, didn't have any benefits. But as we got
more and more residents then, and we got people signed

(10:29):
up for mass health and you know, EBT cards and such,
my bosses said, hey, start cutting back on providing diapers
to formula to residents that are on benefits. So I
told the residents that in a weekly shelter meeting, and

(10:49):
you would have thought, you know that, you know, I
committed a murder. People were offended. People were calling me
a racist, saying that you know, how dare I take
away these benefits? And I tried to explain it using
some common sense to keep in mind, I don't see
pacing creole. So this is all through a third party
interpreter that you guys are double dipping. You can't, you know,

(11:09):
you can't be double dippling if you're getting benefits, then
you know those benefits are supposed to pay for you
to take care of your family. You can't get free
stuff plus benefits. And that went over, you know, very poorly.
So you just can't make it up.

Speaker 1 (11:23):
So one of the migrants tried to kill you.

Speaker 2 (11:28):
I think he certainly tried to send a message. I
think he certainly tried to send a message, and then
he got mad at me, because, believe it or not,
they actually cited him for it for driving without a
driver's license. And when he got the letter from the
RMB saying that he hadn't paid his five hundred dollars
fine and that he couldn't get a temporary driver's license

(11:51):
or a permit because he hadn't paid the fine, he
flipped out on me again, saying this was all my
fault that I did this, and I was I was like,
I don't run the R and V because if I did,
I would do things a lot differently. But this is
your fault. You did this. No, no, no, you did
this because you don't like me. And so the biggest

(12:12):
problem in the Heey hotel is the governor never had
a plan. It was always crisis management. And you put
people into a you know, taxpayer funded hotel and it
sounds like, oh, it's wonderful. It's not, Jeff, It's hell
on earth. You know, You've got all of your belongings

(12:32):
in a small hotel room with probably two or three kids.
The rooms are dirty, they've got problems in them. There's
a huge mental health crisis in these shelters because people
are you know, the Trump I'm traumatized. Jeff, I haven't
been the same in the last couple of months, you know, emotionally, physically, mentally,
So imagine how these individuals are. Governor Healely has no plan. No,

(12:56):
I many times had said to her, and I personally
said to her personally face to face at Jelut Stadium,
on the field at a Julut Stadium for the Army
Navy game, there's no plan for this. There's a mental
health crisis going on here. We need to develop tassports.
We need to start putting plans in place, orientations, having
local police come in and say that it's not okay

(13:18):
for you to sit in your car in the parking
lot and drink. You know, there's there's laws in the
United States for exact words. Ark to me, call my
office on Monday, we'll talk. I called it half a
dozen times. She never called me back.

Speaker 1 (13:32):
John. If I'm getting too personal, please tell me. And
we've got about a minute left, John, did you when
you met her at the Army Navy game at Gillette Stadium,
did you tell her there are rapes that are being committed,
There are children being molested and assaulted, there are crimes
being committed left, right and center, drugs being you know,

(13:53):
the drug dealing, sex trafficking, I'm being physically attacked. It's
out of content. Did you specifically say.

Speaker 2 (14:02):
That to her? Well, Jeff, fortunately the rapes had not
happened yet or I wasn't aware of them yet at
that time. So no, that conversation didn't come up. But
my conversation to her about sanitation and the mental health
crisis certainly did come up. Yes, it was a very
brief conversation. I mean, I'm not friendly with the governor,

(14:25):
but the governor knows who I am, you know, So
I mean, now, what about.

Speaker 1 (14:29):
I mean, we got about thirty seconds left, Elizabeth Warren
ed Markey. People at the state legislature? Are they aware
of this? Are they doing anything?

Speaker 2 (14:41):
Like I said, Jeff, this story's gone national. The Main
Wire broke the story over the summer. The Daily Wire
picked it up a couple of weeks ago and did
an excellent job with it. It's all over national media,
and I haven't heard from a single person.

Speaker 1 (14:59):
Disgraceful, Absolutely disgraceful. John. Listen, you are a courageous whistleblower.
I want to have you back on the show again.
I want to dig deeper. I want to drive this story.
This is a story that needs to be told and
reported on. John, Where can people find your stuff? I
know you're active on social media? Where can they find

(15:19):
your stuff?

Speaker 2 (15:21):
I'm pretty active on X. Local politics is All politics
is local with John Featherston. You can find me there.
And I'm not going to stop talking about this, Jeff,
because more Healey doubling down say that she's going to
protect these rapists over you and me and our kids. No,
it's wrong, Jeff. It's got to stop.

Speaker 1 (15:41):
All politics is local. You can find him on X.
John Featherston F E T H E R S T
O N. John, You're a warrior, my friend. Keep it up.
God bless you and stay in touch. Okay, John, all right,
take care my friend. Six months sixty eight. Sixty eight

(16:02):
is the number. Quote here, it is the parasites had
it coming unquote. That apparently is now what appears in
the two and a half page handwritten manifesto that they
discovered on Luigi Mangiani, sorry Mangioni in altoon Pennsylvania. The

(16:24):
is he's the alleged assassin, the murderer of United Healthcare
CEO Brian Thompson when they found him at the McDonald's,
he was arrested. He went apparently very quietly, very meekly,
without incident, but he had the gun on him, the
suppressor on him, and this two and a half page
manifesto where he confesses to the crime, saying that capitalists

(16:50):
are parasites and they deserve to all be murdered and exterminated.
Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight
is the number. So let me ask you. It is
the Cooner Country Pole Question of the Day sponsored by
Marios Mario's Quality Roofing, Siding and Windows. Do you think

(17:16):
Luigi Mangioni Mangione as the police call him, do you
think Luigi Mangioni will make bail. Remember, he's going to
be arraigned, or has been arraigned, and he's being charged
in New York. They caught him in Pennsylvania and the

(17:38):
local police did a phenomenal job. But he's now going
to be brought back across state lines to New York
where the crime was committed in Manhattan. He's facing a
murder charge, gun charges, forgery charges, a document forging, I
think identity papers as well, a slave, a battery of charges.

(18:02):
But it's going to be not in Pennsylvania. It's going
to be in New York and it's going to be
in Manhattan. Will Mangione make bail.

Speaker 4 (18:16):
A yes?

Speaker 1 (18:17):
B no? Now in a normal state, in a red state,
even in a purple state. Oh, I think it's clearly no.
This is a cool blooded killer who comes from a
very wealthy family. So if there's you know me, and
by the way, has shown his proclivity to you know,
cross state lines and try to be on the run,

(18:39):
so you know, and a terrorist, he's an avowed left
wing terrorist and political self proclaimed political revolutionary, a Marxist
communist revolutionary. You think you don't let a guy like
that out. I don't care if it's a million dollars bond,
a too million dollars, five million dollar bail, it doesn't matter.

(19:03):
You don't put a guy like that out. But this
is New York and this is Manhattan, so I think
it's a very good possibility it's going to be a yes.
But that's that's me. I want to hear from you.
You can vote on our web page WRKO dot com.

I was very active last night. My handle there at
the Kooner Report all one word kuh N is in

(19:45):
out to Lisa in Medford. The cookies are incredible. That's Lisa.
You know exactly what I mean. I love them, Mike
loves them, Sandy loves them. You missed your true calling.
You should have opened up a bakery because they are delicious.

(20:06):
Robert in Maine, thanks for holding Robert, and welcome.

Speaker 3 (20:12):
All right, Jeff, thanks for all thanks for all that
you're doing for us. Listen, there's been a lot of
academic historians and political scientists on the air and writing
books about how, you know, we're probably not going to
have another civil war, certainly not like we did in
the eighteen sixties, but that there might be another one.

(20:34):
And they said, the only thing now is instead of
thousands of men facing each other to murder each other,
there's going to be people going in the middle of
the night and getting their enemies. And you know, these
are academicians who study this stuff know a lot more
about it than I do. And my god, you know,
I think everything I've heard this morning on this show
tells me. I used to think they were just nuts

(20:56):
saying all this stuff, but now I'm not so sure.
You know, there's enough on both sides and enough weapons
in this country for people to do that sort of thing.
So anyway, I'll let you go, Jeff, and thank you Robert.

Speaker 1 (21:08):
Before you go, I want to ask you because you're
you're raising a fascinating point. You know, it triggered something
in my brain. I'm thinking out loud, you tell me
if you agree or disagree, wouldn't you say objectively? Last
four or five years, Black lives Matter, all that rioting
in the so called Summer of Love after the death

(21:30):
of George Floyd, what is it now? Thirty six innocent
people were slaughtered, hundreds of cops maimed, wounded, several of
them killed in cold blood. Parts of entire cities raised,
burned to the ground. The rioting, the burning, the looting,

(21:51):
Antifa going around openly assaulting, murdering people, nothing happening to them.
And now the rise of this left wing political revolutionary movement,
whether it's pro Hamas on campuses again, people being attacked,
Jews being attacked, some of them being murdered. Now you

(22:13):
have this execution assassination of a CEO by this self
proclaimed you know, communist revolutionary. Hasn't this civil war in
some sense begun? Could you not make that argument? It
may be a slow boil civil war, a low level
civil war, but that there are now elements on the

(22:35):
left that are basically now not just embracing violence, but
saying the only solution is to kill, to slowly murder
and kill our enemies one by one. And they have
a huge cheering section on x on social media and

(22:55):
within the Democratic Party. In other words, we're already in
a one sided civil war. What would you say to that?
I'm just curious, Robert, does that you agree with that?
Or or disagree? What do you what are your thoughts?

Speaker 3 (23:10):
No, Jeff, I think you're right on target. And one
other thing. Uh, this young fellow that that shot that executive,
killed him and ruined his family for the rest of
their lives. By the way, this fellow, uh, he's his
age straddles gen z and and millennials. And you've got
to remember something, you know, Tony and Bruce and people

(23:32):
have brought this up. What's gonna happen? What these people
have an understanding of the world, not just super liberal
because of the schools, but also you know, anybody that
shows up for a game gets a trophy. And so
if if, if they if they think that something offends them,
that automatically turns in the right to do violence against

(23:54):
whatever it is that's offending them. In other words, offense
or emotional stress goals responding with violence. So I'll just
say that as a second point. Just keep up the
good work, buddy, Robert.

Speaker 1 (24:07):
Thank you very very much. No, look, this is what
I mean. I mean, I can replay Josh Shapiro, the
governor of Pennsylvania again, but even he's raising the issue
and he's talking. Look, it's not conservatives, it's not Maga,
it's not Trump people. We're not going around offering people
or you know, yelling pro terrorist slogans about from the
river to the sea, Palestine shall be free. We're not

(24:29):
the ones burning and looting and raising cities to the ground.
And you know what do we want you know, you know,
dead cops? When do we want it?

Speaker 2 (24:38):
Now?

Speaker 1 (24:39):
Pigs in a blanket, fry h like bacon. That's all
blm Antifa and the and the left and Josh Shapiro
was saying, since when did murdering somebody in cold blood
make you a hero? Six one seven two six six
sixty eight sixty eight. You know, by the way, a
couple lines are open if you want to jump on
six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight.

(25:02):
Many of you on Messenger are making a very very perceptive,
important point saying, Jeff, his age is twenty six years old.
Now they go, you know, that's an important age. Why
is it an important age because on Obamacare that's as
long it's up to twenty six that you can be
on your parents's health insurance. So again it's speculation obviously,

(25:28):
but was you know, was it one of the things
that sent them off the edge? Luigi Mangioni was, He's
got this chronic, debilitating, traumatic back pain that apparently now
has really been haunting him and bedeviling him for three
or four years now, to the point that you have

(25:50):
friends and people who knew him saying, no, he changed
his personality. You can he just he wasn't the same guy,
and it just got worse and worse and worse and worse. Verse. Well,
now is he staring at the possibility that he's being
told you're no longer going to be on mommy and
daddy's health insurance a junior, You're on your own now.

(26:12):
And he's angry, he feels betrayed, he lashes out. I'm
just throwing it up there. Six one seven, two, sixty six,
sixty eight, sixty eight. And let me just ask all
of you this, what would drive someone I just stand
back for a second. Objectively. You come from a very wealthy, entitled, educated,

(26:39):
privileged family. Grandfather self made, multi millionaire, a real estate empire,
highly respected, large Italian American family. Your mother and father
successful business, your sister very successful doctor has out got
a residence in Dallas. Uncles and aunts or lawmakers, engineers,

(27:03):
really just it is one of the most by the way,
the grandfather owns a big conservative talk show media station
and a radio station in Maryland. You come from one
of the most recognizable families in the Baltimore area and
in Maryland. And you go to a very exclusive forty

(27:25):
thousand dollars a year private high school, all boys prep school,
where you're the valedictorian, high grades, studious, athletic, by all accounts, popular,
well liked. You end up going to the Ivy League
University of Pennsylvania. You get a bachelor's degree, you get

(27:48):
a master's degree in engineering and in technology. You get
a very good job out on the West Coast in
California at a software company. You end up going to Hawaii, Honolulu,
where he also got a very good job there, got
into surfing. I think that's where he got the back injury.

(28:08):
Don't quote me on that, but that's it's at that
time where he starts to struggle with chronic back pain
and they say everything about his personality then began to change.
How do you go from that to within a couple
of years writing a manifesto caught with a gun and

(28:31):
a silencer and saying the parasites had it coming A
ya yai, I mean really, a ya yai. And I
think that's what's chilling about this is that if it
can happen to him, this kind of evil transformation, it

(28:51):
could happen to anybody. And are things getting so extreme
and so dangerous on car college campuses and you see
it with all these pro Hamas students and pro g hottist,
pro terrorist students, the anti semitism, the the radical woke ideology.

(29:14):
But is it getting now to such an extent that
they're starting to turn out now, you know, self proclaimed
revolutionary terrorists a ya yai hi ya yai six one
seven two six x sixty eight sixty eight. Bruce and Woburn,

(29:36):
you've been very patient, Bruce, thanks for holding and welcome
Oh this guy was a moonbat, Bruce. This he was
a he was a moon howler. I'll tell you that one,
a full mooner.

Speaker 4 (29:53):
Well before I get to him. Welcome back, Sandy, Jeff.
This guy was a burning brow ANTIFA Black Lives Matter
kind of dude. They're the terrorists, not us. They're the
ones that are I mean, look at look at what
he did. Why why wasn't he he should have been

(30:18):
on Obamacare for crisis. I mean, this is crazy. I mean,
this is this kid. Say what you want about his injuries.
We've all had injuries. I've had many injuries, and I
don't complain. I just march on, I keep on going.

(30:39):
This kid decided what was what was his motive? I mean,
look look at the guy that shot the president, look
at the guy that tried to shoot the president. What
did they all have in common? They were mental They
had mental issues that should have been addressed, and no
one addressed them. I mean when he started said, you know,

(31:02):
separating himself from his friends and his family. Yeah, that's
a little bit of a time. But he hunted this guy.
And you gotta watch you off back, Jeff. I'm telling
you right now, there are people out there that don't
like you or I or anybody in Kuna Country because
of our beliefs and our I mean, we're true Americans.

(31:28):
These are terrorists. And like Mara heely, oh, you got
to burn the forest down, so what new things can grow?
This is what she said. She's an insider of these
kind of people. And and like you said about the
guy that shot the people playing softball in DC, he

(31:50):
was the same Bernie bro Psycho. I mean, these universities
are turning these people out, Jeff. And they're supposed to
be learning, not burning. I mean, come on, Bruce.

Speaker 1 (32:05):
I couldn't have said it better myself. They're supposed to
be learning, not burning. And you know, I was just
as I was listening to you, Bruce. You know in Butler, Pennsylvania,
that assassin er would be assassin leftist, the one at
the golf club in Florida. He you know, the one
that tried to assassinate Trump and luckily they got him

(32:26):
before he could, you know, before he could get him. Leftist,
this guy, Luigi Mangioni. Leftist. I mean, you just start
running down the list, it's obvious who's committing most of
the violence. And you know you mentioned Black Lives Matter
and Antifa and you're completely right. I just want to
play this cut, okay, Bruce, And this reinforces your point.

(32:48):
And I didn't get a chance yet to talk about
Daniel Penny, and if we don't, we'll talk about it tomorrow,
I promise. But just stand back here. You have a
former marine, okay, just for a second. He's a former marine,
similar to age to this guy, Luigi Mangioni. He's riding
the subway in New York and the violence on these

(33:10):
subways now, women assaulted, people beaten up and mugged, some
people literally murdered, pushed off onto the tracks and the
subway runs them over and kills them. And this homeless
drug addict with forty two previous arrests and convictions forty

(33:33):
two forty two career criminal Jordan Neely comes on the subway,
the f train and starts telling everybody someone's going to
die today. Someone is going to die today, and he's
threatening people who are riding the subway. The women testified
they were petrified he was going to kill him. There

(33:55):
was a woman with a stroller saying he was going
to hurt my baby. He's yelling. He's a homeless guy,
mentally ill, as you pointed out, yelling, screaming, shouting, menacing, threatening,
and the one good samaritan is and to me he's
a hero is Daniel Penny. And Penny grabs him in

(34:16):
a troll hold as he's yelling, menacing and threatening to
kill people, and military style troke hold. Didn't use excessive force,
not at all, didn't break a single bone in his neck,
and he holds him until the police comes. And then,
by the way, when the police arrive, Jordan Neely was alive.

(34:36):
He was breathing, but because he was so dirty that's
the word the police used, and not just physically dirty.
He obviously looked like a chronic drug user and a
drug addict. The police said, I'm not giving this guy
mouth to mouth resuscitation. What are you crazy? I have
no idea what diseases this guy has. So they refuse

(34:58):
to give neely mouth to mouth rescis citation. He eventually dies. Now,
I'm telling you, in my book, and in the book
of most Americans who are normal insane, thank the Lord
for people like Daniel Penny because he's a hero. No no, no, no,
not in Manhattan. No, not with Alvin Bragg and that

(35:22):
crazy da And so he tries to get him on manslaughter.
He can't get him on manslaughter. They then drop that
charge and they tell the jury, okay, can you get
them on negligent homicide? And the jury comes back twelve
to zero unanimous decision, not guilty. Duh, of course he's

(35:43):
not guilty. The guy should be given a medal in
a parade. Frankly, okay, but let that go. This is
the point. Who's there? Black Lives Matter is there, and
the leader of the Manhattan chapter of Black Lives Matter
Matter is a stone cold racist. His name is Hawk Newsome.

(36:06):
Now talk about glorifying violence, talk about preaching hate. Listen, now,
all of you got to hear this. Okay, you tell
me if there's one Trump supporter, one MAGA supporter, one
conservative who has ever said anything coming close to this,
this is Hawk Newsome speaking right after the Daniel Penny

(36:30):
not guilty verdict. Listen, this is the top guy of
Black Lives Matter in Manhattan. Roll cut twelve, Mike.

Speaker 5 (36:40):
It's like everybody else has vigilanites. We need some black vigilites.

Speaker 6 (36:47):
That's right.

Speaker 1 (36:48):
People want to jump up and choke.

Speaker 5 (36:51):
Us and kill us for being loud. How about we
do the same when they attempt to oppress us.

Speaker 1 (37:02):
I'm tired, tired, right.

Speaker 5 (37:04):
I know you're looking for us to be like, oh,
going much going much No this weekend, I want you
to hold a community event everywhere from the Bronx to
Houston to Seattle to Florida, black people, whole community event
and talk about what you need.

Speaker 1 (37:27):
They're calling for retaliation. They're saying, go kill some white people.
And Sandy was in my ear as the cut was playing,
and she's a thousand, not one hundred, one thousand percent correct.
She said, since when, and that's what Jordan Neely did.
Since when is menacing and threatening people to kill him
on a subway. How's that being loud? That's not being loud,

(37:51):
that's posing a threat to people's very lives. And by
the way, just for the record, the fact that Jordan
neely is block is irrelevant, and I'll tell you why
it's irrelevant for many reasons. In twenty fifteen, he was
arrested for kidnapping or attempted kidnapping of a seven year
old girl. That girl was black. This guy was convicted

(38:15):
of assaulting and mugging a young black woman. I believe
this was in what maybe twenty eleven, twenty twelve. Most
of his victims were black. He's just a FuG man,
a drug addicted, homeless, probably mentally ill, thug, and a

(38:37):
career criminal. And by the way, there were blacks on
that train. He was menacing them. I believe the mother
with the stroller correct me if I'm wrong. Was black
actually said I was petrified. I thought he was gonna
kill me and my baby. So what is the fact
that this guy's black have to do with anything? Now, Bruce,

(38:59):
I haven't forgotten you promise. Now, this is the co
founder of BLM in Manhattan. Now it's it's Schavana Newsom.
I don't know if it's his sister or his wife. Okay,
so forgive me. I suspect it's his wife. But if
I'm wrong, forgive me anyway, it's either the wife or
the sister family in some way. Family, listen to this

(39:22):
rold cut twelve A Mike.

Speaker 6 (39:26):
America has no moral cold, America has no soul.

Speaker 1 (39:30):
As we saw.

Speaker 6 (39:31):
Those non white jurists, we knew that this case was over.
These wonderful white people. I hope they celebrate their Christmas
while the Neely family is praying and asking God for comfort.
Got them and got America.

Speaker 1 (39:47):
And you're gonna tell me that they hate the extremism.
The violence is coming from the right. Bull crap. Come on,
it's bull crap. And that's right there on the steps.
So they're openly calling. Now they're saying white people need

(40:07):
to be choked and killed so they know how it's feeling.
What Jordan Neely feels felt like. They now need to
know what it feels like. And you're gonna tell me
there isn't a problem on the left with violence? Are
you serious? Bruce? Final word to you, my friend.

Speaker 7 (40:27):
Oh Luigi there that shot that poor guy, and he
kept the gun and the silencer and the AMO And
where was he going next? Jeff shouldn't he has just
left the.

Speaker 4 (40:42):
Gun and took the Canoli's.

Speaker 8 (40:45):
I mean, something's up with this, Jeff there was something
else on his agenda that we don't know about, and
I hope they find out where he was going after that.

Speaker 3 (40:56):
Jeff, this is important.

Speaker 1 (40:58):
That is a great point, Bruce, that is an outstanding point.
And thank you very much for that call. And that's
what the police were saying in Altuona. They were saying
to everybody, a whoa, whoa, whoa whoa. You know, you
on the left are all lionizing and celebrating this guy
and turning him into some kind of a hero, idolizing him.

(41:22):
Where do you think he was going? He was going
to go and kill another CEO. He was going to
kill another human being. This guy was going on a
crime spree, a murder killing spree. And you got you.
You like that, You you laugh at that, you think
that's wonderful, You praise that, you celebrate that. I'm sorry,

(41:44):
you're sick. You're sick. Heather in Maine. Thanks for holding Heather,
and welcome.

Speaker 2 (41:52):
Good morning, Jack, Hither Christmas.

Speaker 1 (41:55):
Merry Christmas. All the best to you and your family.

Speaker 9 (41:57):
Heather, Thank you so much. Yeah, I'm very happy about
Daniel Penny.

Speaker 2 (42:03):
That's awesome.

Speaker 9 (42:04):
So glad to hear that he's free down to have
a good life, I hope so as far as the
insurance companies go, I have unfortunately had a lot of
experience with insurance companies. One of my children had a
lot of mental health issues undiagnosed. We tried to diagnose things,

(42:24):
but the doctors kept missing things and anyway needed residential treatment.
We were covered with our insurance company for residential so
she was approved to go all the way to Utah
to this residential treatment when she was fifteen, and after

(42:45):
six weeks, the insurance company pulled the plug on it.
While the psychiatrists that were dealing with her and treating
her were saying, you know, she still was very dangerous
to herself, and you know it's just if you've seen
you've got to watch this episode on sixty minutes. It

(43:06):
was dated twelve, fourteen, fourteen, and the title of it
is Denied, where it talks about this woman who lost
her daughter, same situation. What happens is the insurance companies
hire psychiatrists and doctors to deny people, and they get
paid more for denials than they do for approvals. They're

(43:28):
denying ninety to one hundred percent of the time. Families
that pay for insurance. So I'm just trying to awaken
a lot of other people. I think this is a
very very corrupt business and it needs to be rained in.
And these CEOs that are making ten million dollars a year,

(43:50):
the money should be going to the people that pay
for the insurance, not to them. And I obviously do
not condone any kind of violence towards anybody. I think
it's horrible what happened to him. He was a dad
and a husband and that's awful. But I'm just trying
to shed light that this is a very complicated issue.
It's not like a black and white thing for me.

Speaker 1 (44:13):
No, Heather, Look, I don't mean to cut you off.
I promise I'll give you all the time in the world.
It's it's a gray issue for everybody. You know when
you say, Jeff, it's not a black and white issue
for me. No, it's not a black and white issue
for anybody. Look, I've had my dealings with insurance companies, Sarah,
just I don't want to get too personal, but you know,
now it's nothing on the level that you're talking about.

(44:35):
But you know, on type two diabetic and there was
this machine, was it called Leebra or whatever it's called.
Where my doctor was saying, you really should get it, Jeff,
somebody like you. You've got a high sugar You know
your your A one C is pretty high. You want
to get that down. You need to be monitoring your
sugar level at all time. And it's one of these gizmos,

(44:56):
er gadgets that you put on you, you know, almost
like a wa and it just tells you what your
sugar level is at all times. And he says, we've
had immense success with this. Okay, So I apply for
it for the insurance company. Denied. Now I could pay
out a pocket. It's very expensive out of pocket. So

(45:17):
I'm just giving you an example. You know they're putting
they're clearly putting profits above giving people the best care possible.
It's disgusting. But what needs then is reform, and I
don't honestly, I don't begrudge a healthcare CEO making millions
of dollars. I don't. But your job is to improve healthcare,

(45:39):
to cut out the waste and fraud and abuse in
your own health insurance company, to free up the money
so you can help people pay and get the mental
health or the drugs or the medication or the surgery
or the procedures that they need. Instead, they see it
as their mission just maximize profit and their own bottom

(46:00):
line at the expense of everybody else and my wrong, Heather, I.

Speaker 9 (46:06):
Totally agree with you. It was a full time job
for me on Heather, please hang on.
