Speaker 1 (00:00):
Okay, let's go right back to Tony in Florida. Tony,
you wanted to talk about a major abortion bill that
was just signed into law by hol Did Healey, Governor
Mora Healey here in Massachusetts. Please pick up where you
left off.

Speaker 2 (00:18):
Yes, Jeff, it was just so nauseating, Like I don't
even know if like the word evil is enough. I mean,
I don't know, like I can look up more words
that maybe go beyond, but it's just absolutely so sickening
in demonic. And it was unbelievable, Jeff, Like all her
sheep was standing up behind her, like literally applauding that.

(00:41):
And we're talking about the life of a human being.
I mean, I'm pro life anyway, so I believe it
starts an inception, but I mean now you're taking it
to the point where you want to murder, literally kill
these babies at birth. And I mean, there are so
many other options if a mother doesn't want to keep
a child. I mean, every life is precious, and you know,

(01:03):
and it just it was just so bad and so evil,
and I wanted to bring that op, Jeff, and I'm well, Tony.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
Look, Tony, let me just tell you this. It was sickening.
And what people don't realize about the Democratic Socialists of
America is that's that's one of their central planks. What
Mora Healy signed into law is exactly what the DSA
wants for the entire country. They want no limits on abortion,

(01:33):
abortion right up until birth, so no limits at four months,
five months, six months. Again, most you know, most liberal
Americans have no idea that. For example, take Europe. Most
European countries have limits on abortion four and a half months,
five months on the outlier six months. Why because the Europeans,

(01:58):
even the liberal, permissive Europeans, the secular Europeans, say well,
in the third trimester, clearly the baby in the womb
is a viable baby. It's got a head, it's got lungs,
a heart, two legs, two arms. Now you're killing a life,
an actual life. You're killing a life. And so what

(02:21):
we had in Massachusetts up until her signing that law
just a few days ago, was we had it was abortion.
We had legalized abortion all the way up to six months.
So in other words, we were up there with Sweden.
We had one of the most permissive liberal abortion laws

(02:45):
in the entire world. But that's not enough for the
radical left. That's not enough for the Democratic Socialists of America.
It wasn't enough for the Marxist here in Massachusetts. And
so what the State House and then the state Senate
has the bill signed by Healy now allows listen to
this abortion all the way up until birth. That means

(03:13):
the baby can be nine months in the womb, nine months,
thirty six weeks. I mean, in other words, if it
comes out, it's alive, it'll breathe, it's a fully functioning,
viable baby, and you can terminate it. That was the
term that they use in the bill. You can terminate

(03:35):
it all the way up until the baby is born,
even if it's a full thirty six weeks. It's a fanticide.
It's as I said on X last night, it's legalized murder.
We're not talking first trimester, second trimes. And I'm pro

(03:59):
life from you know, conception all the way to natural death.
But okay, you can, you know, make an argument whatever
it's not, you know, fully human after two months, three months,
four months, five months, even six months.

Speaker 3 (04:11):
But this.

Speaker 1 (04:14):
Nine freaking months, it's murder. It's legalized murder. When I
saw not just the language of the bill, but the
actual signing ceremony with Maria Heally and the bill on

(04:34):
her desk, surrounded again by radical white women, almost all
of them liberal white women, smiling, many of them saying
thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, patting each

(05:01):
other on the back, laughing. I said, my god, this
is demonic. This is truly demonic. You mean to tell
me you want to kill the baby right up until
the moment it's born.

Speaker 4 (05:20):
Are you that evil? Are you that satanic? And you're
thanking her for legalizing and fantaside And just so that
you know why this is so personal to me, when
we adopted my beautiful Ava, my second child, okay, my

(05:41):
little Ava bear as I call her, even though she's
thirteen now, she was technically she was premature. She was
eight weeks, sorry, eight months, two weeks. In fact, she
had to stay in the hospital for a couple of weeks,
you know, until she got a little bit bigger and
they were able to get some food into her, and

(06:01):
she she you know, she was born just five pounds,
just four pounds and three quarters. I held her in
my hand when she was born prematurely. All right, I
want to ask you the Cooner Country Pole Question of
the Day sponsored by Marios Marios quality, roofing, sighting and windows.

(06:25):
And I got to say it's it's a multiple choice,
not an easy question today. It really isn't Which is
the most lowesome tenant? So let me repeat that, which
is the most lowesome tenant of the Democratic Socialists of America?

(06:47):
A Anti Semitism, B economic ignorance, CE hypocrisy, D.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
Racism? In particular, obviously they're anti white racism. A anti semitism,
B economic ignorance, C hypocrisy, D anti white racism. Which
of these four do you think is their most loathsome
policy or tenant? You can vote on our web page

(07:27):
WRKO dot com slash cooner wrko dot com slash cooner.
Kuh And is in national Er. You can also vote
via x. As you saw last night, I was really
firing on all cylinders on X. Anyway, my handle there
all one word at the Kooner Report. At the Kooner Report.

(07:52):
Kuh And is in national Er. Just very quick as
the lines are blazing, I want to go right back
to the phones. But to me, there's no question that
you look at the Democratic Socialists of America and really
now the radical the communist left that has now taken
over the Democratic Party. They now want abortion all the

(08:18):
way up until birth for the entire country. In blue states, yes,
but they want it all over the entire country. And
that's why Massachusetts went ahead and passed to me a
bill that will go down in infamy, signed by Healey.

(08:38):
And I know what's gotten a lot of reaction As
much as the bill itself and the contents of the bill,
it's the women around Healey, the smiles dejroy, the glee,
the happiness, the celebrations. People are just shocked that when

(09:00):
talking about something so heinous, so depraved, sorry, but so demonic.
I mean, I'm sorry, just on a practical level, why
do you need to abort a nine month old baby?

Speaker 4 (09:16):
Like, what is wrong with you?

Speaker 1 (09:19):
Look again, you know me on' pro life from conception
until natural birth. But you know, I don't know after
two months, three months, four months, five months, you know,
do you want the baby or do you not want
the baby? Remember, Massachusetts had a six month limit. Abortion
was legal up until six months. We already had one

(09:43):
of the most permissive liberal abortion laws in the world.
So all the way up until your second trimester, I
mean by then, you know, the stomach is bulging. And okay,
you want to abort it. You were allowed to abort it.
What do you need the last three months for It's murder.

(10:08):
It's pure murder. There's no day if the baby is born,
the baby survives and lives, it's murder. And again, let
me just say one final final point, and I want
to go obviously to the phones. I mentioned my beautiful Ava. Okay,
she was slightly premature, eight months, two weeks something like that. Anyway,

(10:31):
she was about two weeks ten days premature. Under this,
under this demonic law, Ava could have been murdered legally.
Had the birth mom decided, nah, what the hell. They
inject something into the heart of the baby, through the

(10:51):
through the the through the womb, and it dismembers the baby.
The baby is dismembered, or they they suck the back
of the skull and they crushed the brain. That's how
these abortions are performed, especially at this late stage. Hey,
that's what we're dealing with. I picked her up in

(11:16):
my hand the night that she was born. I held
her in my hand. She was so beautiful, so angelic,
so innocent. She was sleeping. You could feel her heart beat,
you could see her little toes or little hands, or
beautiful cheeks, her beautiful forehead. I was caressing it. I

(11:41):
kept kissing her over and over again. And to think
that that baby could have been murdered, could have been killed.
Don't ever tell me that liberalism is moral, that liberalism

(12:02):
is virtuous, that liberalism is based on noble intentions, because
it isn't. And for those women to be cheering and
celebrating open infanticide, it's beyond sickening. It's truly evil. Where's

(12:26):
our conscience, Where's our morality? And all of it's so unnecessary.
You already had six months? Why did you need to
do this? What's the What I mean? Is there an
epidemic of women and their eighth or nine month of
pregnancy and selling?

Speaker 3 (12:46):
Oh? Who?

Speaker 5 (12:47):
You know what? I know.

Speaker 1 (12:49):
I wanted to have it and now it's just about
to come out, and you know what to kill it.
I'm telling you, and you can hold me to this,
and Mike, please don't dump this, okay, because I want
to stick by every word of this. After passing that draconian,

(13:13):
evil abortion law, this anti human, anti baby, anti life
abortion law, to me, the Massachusetts state government right now
of Moriheli is an illegitimate government. It's an illegitimate government

(13:34):
when you have a government that openly sponsors the mass
murder of innocent children. And that's what they are, innocent babies.
You know, when I held Ava in my hand, regardless
of the birth mom, the birth dad, whatever they did,

(13:54):
that baby's innocent. That baby hurt nobody. That baby was
a miracle, a gift from God. And you now say
we should murder it. Six one seven two six, six
sixty eight sixty eight is the number Andy in Halifax.

(14:16):
Thanks for holding Andy, and welcome.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
Good morning. I call.

Speaker 3 (14:23):
My family on my dad's side grew up in UH,
grew up and raised in Europe, Hungary specifically, and UH
post Second World War.

Speaker 2 (14:32):
Unfortunately for Hungary, they wound up on.

Speaker 3 (14:35):
The wrong side of the wall. My grandfather was a
affluent he was the mayor in the town that they
lived in. And my uncles. I had seven uncles. They
were all mid to older teams and UH, little by little,

(14:57):
the Soviets u already on the family farm, so they
would They had teams of horses and pigs and cows
and chickens and all that, so they took everything but
the house that they lived in and a small garden
out back, two horses and one cart. Everything else the
state took. It became part of the state. So one day,

(15:19):
one night, their elderly neighbor next door instead of there
was a shortage of everything, so and they had no fertilizer.
So this elderly man, instead of going to the bathroom
in his outhouse, would go out in his garden and
go to the bathroom in his garden because it was
the only fertilizer he had.

Speaker 2 (15:40):
Well, in Soviet.

Speaker 3 (15:43):
Russia, not even your your house belongs to you, So
they had someone that would come around once a week
and collect the bucket in your outhouse. Well, this old
man had an empty bucket at the end of the
and someone, probably the guy that collected his bucket, dropped

(16:05):
a dime and in the middle of the night the
AVO the dreaded secret police came Hungarian secret police and
they took him away and they never saw him again.
And a week later one of the comrade buddies took
over his house. And so I have lots of stories

(16:28):
like this that my uncles gave me first hand of
what the Soviets did and what communism actually does. That night,
my uncle Chris, who I think was seventeen or eighteen
at the time, said, that's it. I've had enough to
do something. And long before the Soviets had collected all

(16:49):
of the firearms, so there were no firearms really in
anyone's possession. Well, my uncles had squirreled away a couple
of things. So he took his pistol and he went
to the local lamp factory and I say lamp factory
and quotation marks because the Soviets weren't making lamps, they
were making weapons in this lamp factory. So a bunch

(17:11):
of his teenage friends to the lampry and they banged
on the gate, and the night watchman came out in
like a night coat with a lamp, and he said,
what do you boys want? Get out of here, you
hoodlums they called them. And he reached he reached through
the gate and grabbed him by the scruff of his

(17:31):
shirt and put the pistol to his head and said,
how would you let first for the revolution? And that
was the start of the October nineteen fifty six revolution
in Hungary.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
Yeah, which the Russians crushed. Are the Soviets crushed, Yeah,
brutally crushed.

Speaker 2 (17:52):
No.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
Andy, Look, you're triggering a lot of memories within me
because your story is very eerily similar to my famili's
was in Hungary. It was Croatia, I mean then Yugoslavia,
but today Yugoslavia no longer exists, so Croatia. And they
took everything from my grandfather, the horses, the chickens, the pigs,

(18:13):
the cows. They took the house. You know, as I
was listening to your story, I'm like, wow, they let
you keep the house and a small garden. No, they
took his home, and they took his garden, and they
took his vineyard, and they harassed him and harassed him.
In fact, they put him in a concentration camp, a
slave labor camp for three years. But I remember my

(18:34):
grandfather telling me that before they seized his land and
his animals, the first thing they did was they went
and got all the guns. They captured and seized the guns.
And my grandfather had a hunting rifle. He was very
proud of it. And it was above the fireplace or whatever,

(18:56):
the woodstove, whatever you want to call it. And they
went there and they took it, and my grandfather almost
never cried, but he said I that night, I just
I drank and I cried and I said, Granddad, why,
And he said, because by taking away my gun, they

(19:17):
took away our dignity. Because now I couldn't defend our
family without that gun. I could not defend your you know,
my grandmother, my grandmother, his wife, and he said, my children.
And then I knew they were going to come for everything,
and that's what they did. And by the end they
just got so bad. My grandfather had no choice but

(19:39):
to leave. He said. We stayed much longer, we would
all been dead. He goes, there'd be no Cooners left.
And to this day, I'll be very honest with you, Andy,
I have a soft spot for Germany because the West
German government only because of our last name. It's a
German last name, even though we had been in Croatia

(19:59):
for at least half a millennium, okay, I'm talking five
hundred years bare minimum, to fight off the Autumn Turks.
So a lot of Germans resettled into that part of
Europe to fight off the Autumn Turks, and the Kooners
were one of them. And so we had, you know,
we hadn't seen Germany, and my family hadn't seen Germany

(20:20):
in you know, five six, seven hundred years, but only
because we had a German last name. They allowed my
father to immigrate, my grandfather and my father, my family
to emigrate, and they stayed in West Germany for a
couple of years, and then of course the East Germans
were there and they were starting to build, or on
the verge of building their Berlin Wall, and my grandfather said, no, no, no, no,

(20:45):
they're never going to stop pushing. They're going to keep
going westward. We got to get out of here. And
so the only two places that were taking in immigrants
at the time was Australia and Canada. And Australia by
this time, China had fallen into communism, and my grandfather said,
that's Australia is too close to Red China, and so

(21:07):
we relocated. He wanted to go to the United States.
That was the place he really wanted to go, but
at that time the Americans weren't taken any more from
Eastern Europe, so that's why he went to the forty
ninth parallel. He went to Montreal, which is practically on
the border with the United States, and my grandfather said,
it's as close to America as we can get. If

(21:28):
the Russians or the Soviets ever try to take over Canada,
the United States will protect us. And that's how we
ended up being in the New World. So, and they
murdered half my family before my grandfather could get out.
They slaughtered half my family. So I know what communism is.

(21:50):
I was reared, you know, on tales of it from
my grandfather, my father, my mother, on both sides of
my family. And I think that that's why the Democrats
and the left don't understand Andy, there are millions of
people like you and me from Eastern Europe whose parents
came from our family, or ancestors came from Eastern Europe

(22:12):
or Russia or Ukraine or Cuba or Venezuela or China
or North Korea or Vietnam, whose family suffered immensely under communism.
And if these idiots think that we're just gonna sit
by and let it happen here, they have another thing coming.

(22:37):
Because I'm telling you, I don't make threats. I'm just
telling you over my dead body, over my dead body,
and I'm telling you They're not gonna win because we're
not gonna let them win, because I will never allow
this country to endure what my ancestors did. Andy, powerful stuff.

(22:58):
God bless you and your family. By the way, I'm
a big fan of Hungary and the Hungarians. I know
you're an American obviously, but believe me, I understand Hungarians
like I understand myself. So anyway, God bless you and
thank you for that story. Andy. Six one seven two six, six,
sixty eight, sixty eight is the number. Okay, we got her,

(23:21):
doctor Grace, putting liberals in their place. Grace Vuoto full disclosure.
I married up my wonderful wife, Grace. The Democratic Socialists
of America wrecked up a few more wins again last night.
They lost the marquee race, though barely by the skin

(23:42):
of their teeth. Francesca Hong lost by three thousand votes
to a Democrat machine candidate, David Crowley. He had the
backing of the Democrat outgoing Governor Tony Evers. Why do
you think Francesca Hong failed where a mom Donnie and
Abdul l Sayed succeeded. What say you?

Speaker 5 (24:06):
I don't think that she's as skilled a candidate as
those two, however, you know, Heinus their positions are. They
are much much better at presenting their point of view,
at articulating their point of view, and they avoided some
obvious traps that she fell right into. So I think

(24:27):
in this case it was actually her performance itself that
was lacking. But what you are presenting day in day
out on your show, Jeff, over the course of the
last few months, is so so vital and important. There
is a tremendous amount of ignorance about what all of
these politicians really will do. They guys their Heenus policies

(24:52):
with rhetoric of compassion, and usually it ends up curtailing
individual liberty way as you're describing here in Massachusetts. Look
what's happening in Massachusetts, curtailing individual liberty to the point
that the most vulnerable, the most vulnerable of all, end
up losing their lives, like these late term fetuses killed.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
By abortion grace. Abdul l sayed. You know, Francesca Honks
said it's time to abolish Thanksgiving. Abdul el sayed now
has been caught on tape saying he wants to get
rid of the entire Second Amendment he mocks fireworks for
the Fourth of July and in fact wants to get

(25:36):
rid of fireworks. Now he's been caught saying that football
professional you know, NFL, American football, college football, he says,
suffers from quote toxic masculinity and that we should get
rid of football. He also says, by the way, that
we are a deeply racist, homophobic, and misogyny stick society. Now,

(26:01):
coming from an arch Muslim like him and a defender
of Sharia law, I wouldn't go down that road if
I were him about homophobia and misogyny. Okay, but let
that go. It's clear now that the radical democrats, like
the communists, want to destroy traditions. They want to eradicate

(26:24):
our cultural heritage in order to pave the way for
the revolution. They did it in every country starting from Russia.
They did it in China, they did it in Eastern Europe,
they did it in Cuba, and now they want to
do it here. Do you think their attempts now to
target Thanksgiving, Fourth of July, the Second Amendment are guns

(26:46):
and now football. Is this going to alienate them from
the mainstream of America or is the country's appetite for
a socialist communist revolution so vast and so deep that
they're now willing to get get rid of all of
our traditions. What say you?

Speaker 5 (27:09):
I think, honestly, again, this is woke crazy part two.
You know, Angle See was on this week over the
weekend saying that the first part of the movement that
she was involved with was you know, a little bit extreme,
you know, was woke crazy. This is more woke crazy.
They've learned absolutely nothing. And I think there's a new

(27:30):
phrase that we should introduce into the language. It's not
toxic masculinity that we have to worry about nowadays. It's
toxic femininity that we have to worry about nowadays. You know,
I think that look at what we're talking about. You know,
earlier in your show you discussed late term abortion applauded

(27:52):
by all these women. One of the things I'm seeing
again and again and again is how vicious girls are
becoming from a very young age. So I think it's
phraeze Jack toxic masculinity. We really need to retire it completely.
We've got a problem with a lack of kindness and
selfishness all across the board, and increasingly in young girls.

(28:14):
All the way to teams in adulthood where they are
completely selfish, narcissistic, and self absorbed. But I'm going off
a little bit on a tangent here getting to your
greater point. Though. This is going way too far, and
I think that this is going to be huge blowback.
What they don't understand is the only reason that they're
surging right now is this is a cry for economic help.

(28:38):
And they think that this cry for economic help is
actually a boon to their agenda. But it's not really
their agenda that the voters are embracing. It's just a
cry for help. It's just wanting to get attention and saying,
no one is listening to us, no one is resolving
our economic pain.

Speaker 1 (28:59):
Where does the Muslim like Abdul el Sayed. I know
he's born in the United States, but he's a Buslim,
devout Muslim. You know. Now they're telling us we can't
have Thanksgiving, we can't have Fourth of July, we can't
have our Second Amendment. Now they're even telling us that

(29:19):
our national sport, and football really has become our national sport.
I know baseball used to be considered that, but I
think if you look at viewership how many fans you know,
the following that it has in city after city. Now
they're telling us we have to get rid of football.
Where do they get off coming to our country and

(29:42):
telling us what our traditions, what our heritage, what our
values should be. You know, I'm sorry, but there's got
to be a point where we tell them blank off America,
love it or leave it? Am I wrong?

Speaker 5 (30:00):
If you're one hundred percent right? And listen, this is
part of the communist agenda to decapitate the family. This
is what they want to do. They want to eliminate
male leadership in the family. Across our society. Football really
is part of a celebration of masculinity, and we've relegated

(30:21):
masculinity increasingly to the sidelines. Instead, we have to celebrate
the heroism, the bravery, the strength, the physical prowess of man,
and also their leadership ability. And I think all of
this is an attempt to they want to eliminate men
as head of the family. And then when this attack
on Thanksgiving is eliminate family holidays, eliminate family gatherings, because

(30:47):
ultimately they hate both. They hate men, they hate families,
and they want all that replaced by the state and
by increasingly this tox ex femininity, which it is extremely
destructive and in the guise of compassion, it brings nothing
but tyranny and destruction.

Speaker 1 (31:07):
Grace. Let me you mentioned toxic femininity. Mora heally signs
this shocking abortion bill. It allows abortion all the way
up until birth, so even if the baby is nine
months inside the womb, it can still be terminated. It's infanticide. It's,
as I said, legalized murder. What's shocking to me is

(31:31):
how many feminists, how many white women in particular, We're
at the signing ceremony, crying out of joy, tears of joy, smiling,
high fiving each other, laughing almost demonically. Why do women
and radical feminists feel the need Seriously, why do you

(31:51):
have to kill the baby at eight nine months in
the womb? I mean you already had abortion legal up
until six months the first two trimesters. Why do they
feel the need to be able to kill a baby
like our Ava, who was maybe born a week or
two premature. Can you explain to me the reasoning behind that.

Speaker 5 (32:15):
It's because there might be a medical emergency and they
don't want women traveling out of state. But really, Jeff,
I'm seeing this problem all across the board with women
and also how they're raising their girls. There's an extreme selfishness,
an extreme self absorption. I mean, I can give you

(32:35):
examples where if I've seen a misbehavior by preteen, say
to our daughter, I contact the mother and the mother
defense very bad conduct from their daughter, instead of being
grateful that I'm bringing it to the attention. Now I'm
the problem. My daughter is the problem. Whereas let's say
someone contacts me and says Ava misbehaved, I'm immediately going

(32:58):
to reprimand Ava. I'm seeing is this extreme toxic femininity.
It's in the women, and it's in how women are
raising their daughters. This is really distressing. There is a
phantom patriarchy that they're constantly fighting against. Somehow their freedom
is going to be curtailed. It's a phantom in their head,

(33:20):
and many of them, I'm telling you, Jeff, I think
they need therapy.

Speaker 1 (33:25):
Do you think the Republicans we got about less than
a minute left, should the Republicans run against this very
radical pear and fanticide abortion bill.

Speaker 5 (33:38):
Absolutely they should. This should be a national outcry. This
is going too far. Even previous Democrats who are monstrous
have always been opposed to this kind of extreme monstrosity.
This should not be allowed to stand in this country.
We're supposed to be the city upon the hill, and

(33:58):
the women should be the fenders of life because they
are the givers of life. It is heartbreaking that they're
on the opposite side of this issue in this state,
in many instances.

Speaker 1 (34:08):
Across the nation, doctor Grace, putting liberals in their place,
Grace Vuoto. We'll talk to you again, Grace, same time,
same place, next week.
