Speaker 1 (00:00):
I was a wet one today. If you're driving in
or you're about to drive in, realize there may be
some leftover showers this morning, even a storm this morning,
and then there's gonna be another thunderstorm tonight at five o'clock.
The nice thing is, so we have to get through this.
We have to get through this. Tomorrow there's gonna be
(00:20):
showers and thunderstorms as well. So we got a couple
of days of this. But the fourth of July weekend
looks pretty good. Thursday and Friday especially sunny, nice in
the eighties. So just make it through these couple of days.
But really be careful driving in this morning. In the
Big Three, well, believe it or not, voter drama, voter rama.
(00:45):
I like voter drama better. I actually like voter drama.
Voter rama in the US said, it is still going on.
It's been going on all night on amendment after amendment
in the big beautiful bill. Well that in the end
is expected to pass and go to the House. Well,
by the way, that's not a sure thing.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
I don't think any of us can anticipate that it
will just flow through smoothly. So I am personally not
optimistic we'll have this fi.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
July for Yeah, we have the Senate proceedings up live
and we're watching it and we'll keep you updated and
if something big happens, we'll play it for you. Well,
the Rent Guidelines Board has approved a rent increase in
the city of three percent for one year leases four
and a half percent for two year leases. And nobody
is happy. Let's a waste of time.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
This is done every year for no good.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
People are making money, but we're not making more money.
Speaker 4 (01:43):
I look at six hundred dollars a year more on
a one year lease, or nine hundred dollars more a.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Year, and that means what are we going to cut
back on? Right there are the tenants, the landlords, the
building owners. They're not happy either. They wanted six percent.
Oh and by the way, today Jersey transit fairs go
up three percent. Oh, it's going to be a burden
my belts.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Tite as it is right now, and I can't even
go another notch. And got really have to decide if
I'm going to take transit again.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Everybody's still talking about Zora and Mom Donnie, and now
Democrats are saying he may show a path forward for
a lost Democratic Party. This is the identity crisis that
they have. I think it's just a collection of people
that don't like Trump right now. Citizen journalist Jason Goodman,
founder of crowd Source the News, will be with us
(02:39):
at eight oh five this morning. We haven't talked with
him since Mom Donnie's henchman tried to intimidate him after
he asked a couple of questions. Uh, he've asked a
couple of questions to the candidate for mayor. Back well,
I guess it was like six weeks ago, a couple
of months ago.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Been back in March.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Yeah, we have to have him on more. He's really
good and he's he he will talk about all. I
went to his site and I saw he's reposting the
mom Donnie stuff. When the henchman went over to him
and he was great though, back off, back off. In
the Diddy trial, the jury is complaining to the judge
about Jurer number twenty five. Jury number twenty five happens
(03:16):
to be a scientist from Manhattan.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
This is someone who speaking sticking to the guns and
not agreeing with a lot of what the other jurors
are saying. That's the kind of person the defense wants,
so that's the last person they would want thrown off
a jury.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Peter Haralambus will have the latest on deliberations at seven
five and on Long Island, the drones will be out
in full force this fourth of July weekend after a
shark attack and several shark sightings.
Speaker 5 (03:47):
As soon as someone sees anything even questionable will have
it called into park operations utilizing lifeguards. Swimmers will be
removed from the water at that location.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
Right, good idea. There have been ten shark attacks on
Long Island beaches in the last three years. Well, let's
get to the big beautiful bill. Look, I'm watching a
live feet of it, and there's Bernie Sanders all packed
up and going for a nap. They're all just the
senators are all just milling around right now. This is
(04:20):
such a baby fit by the Democrats. They're going to
keep putting up amendment after amendment after amendment to vote for,
just like they insisted that the whole bill be read.
That was Chucky Schumer who didn't stay for it. By
the way he left. He wasn't there when the bill
was being read. He just did it because he wants
to delay the bill they know it's going to happen.
(04:44):
Instead of just getting out of the way and letting
it happen, they're not going to They're gonna have this
little fit. They're gonna it's like a kid in a mall,
just laying on his back, kicking and screaming and yelling
because they know they can't stop this, so they just
want to slow it down. And you know why because
Donald Trump said he wants it on his desk by
(05:06):
July fourth. Now there's a couple important deadlines after the
July fourth weekend, including a huge tax hike that was
left like a bomb by the Democrats in one of
their huge expense of trillion dollar bills, and so they
put it. They didn't want to do it during the
(05:27):
Biden administration, and if he did win reelection, they wanted
to do it after his reelection and early in his term.
So they did it in July of twenty twenty five.
The biggest tax hike in American history is going to
happen unless this bill is passed and signed in time.
(05:48):
And the deadline that Donald Trump has set is July fourth,
and so the Democrats are doing everything. Remember it, remember it.
If this tax Sike goes through. Remember it was the
Democrats not only passed it with a majority, but then
they delayed and delayed and delayed to make sure it happened.
I don't know what they're going Maybe they're getting the
(06:09):
money personally, I don't know. I don't know why they're
so into this. But the Republicans are doing all they can.
It's going to pass fifty one to forty nine. That's
what's going to happen. Everybody knows that's what's going to happen.
At the very end of this, it's going to pass
without two votes. Tom till was from North Carolina Republican
(06:30):
who I don't know what he's doing, but he just
ended his career and then ran Paul. Then everybody kind
of forgives and then funny heat he gets no incoming
because it's like, oh, he's Rand Paul. He always does this.
He's very true to what he believes, and even the
Republicans are giving a break on that. But Eric Schmidt,
(06:52):
the Senator is excited about this because he knows it's
going to happen, and it'll probably try at least Bill
attempt to rush through through the House.
Speaker 6 (07:02):
I'm excited to move forward with this bill. I mean
it delivers on President Trump's campaign promises. I spend a
lot of time with them on the campaign trail. No
tax on tips, no tax on overtime, extending the largest
tax cut in American history for working families, securing the border.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Right, there's a lot of great things in this bill.
Is it a perfect bill?
Speaker 7 (07:18):
No?
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Is there such a thing as a perfect bill. No,
But it's a really good bill. And they keep saying, oh,
there's tax hikes for the billionaires. Now everybody's going to
get a tax hike. And as you heard, there's going
to be no more taxes on Social Security. That's a
huge thing. And there's gonna be no more taxes on overtime,
and there's gonna be no more taxes on tips. For
(07:40):
the working class. That's enormous for guys that really just
work for overtime and then have a tax and sometimes
you jump into a higher tax bracket because of it.
That's enormous. For waitresses trying to feed a family, that's immense.
And the Democrats kicking and kicking and screen mean kicking
and screaming and keeping and screaming, say what about Medicaid?
(08:02):
What about Medicare you know who's getting kicked off Medicaid illegals?
When they keep throwing out this million, it's gonna be
a couple of million people. Yeah, they're all illegals. And
you know what else, If you're young and you can
work and you're taking Medicaid and you have no disability,
(08:23):
they want you to get a job. So you have
to prove that you work at least twenty hours a
week to get Medicaid. Does any of that doesn't that
sound reasonable? Does any of that sound insane to you?
Does any of that sound like we're they're ripping medicaid
from Americans? No, that's what's in the bill. But here's
(08:44):
the other part. There are some Republican House members that
have to get the bill next and they have to
pass it that aren't happy that Republicans in the Senate
added more money. These are budget hawks like Russ Fulcher
from Idaho.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
For me and for a lot of others, this does
not keep the trajectory bent downward in terms of the spending,
then we're going to have a problem in passing that
through the House. This is not a simple process, and
the House version only passed by one vote.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Yeah, yeah, so it may have a problem. There's going
to be a lot of Donald Trump phone calls pressuring
people to get in line because they can't. They cannot
lose a vote. And Fulture was a yes, and he
sounds like he's disappointed in what's coming his way. So
we'll keep watching it all day long. It's still on
(09:42):
right now with some very time. By this way, the
Senators look wide awake because they keep sleeping. They give
back to their cozy offices and sleeping. Those poor aids
and the Senate workers. Go to the iHeartRadio app now
and leave us a talk back. You could win a
limited edition Minty in the Morning t shirt if you're
a fan of its. Always Sonny in Philadelphia. May be surprised,
even disappointed that the actor and co creator wants to
(10:05):
change his name. We'll talk about that next. So you
know who Rob mclhenney is. Rob McIlhenny is the guy.
If you watch it, it's Always Sonny in Philadelphia. It's
going into its seventeenth season now, by the way, extremely
successful show. It has a cult following, but a large
cult following. People love the show. I've never watched it,
(10:29):
not one time.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
And I've never watched it once or twice.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
I really want to watch it me too, now I do.
I've heard nothing but good things about it. I mean,
really seriously, it's it's supposed to be this great show.
And I'm from Philadelphia. You know, you'd think i'd at
least watch it. But the guy Rob mclhenney grew up
down the street from me in Lansdown, Pennsylvania. The mclhenny
(10:53):
is there's like eleven kids in the family.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
That name just flows right out of.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
His It's a nice name, it's a good name. And
I was friend with his older brother, Jed, and I
don't know him. I never met him, don't know him,
but you know, he went on the Saint Jo's Prepp
and the University of Pennsylvania and then became this big writer.
But apparently, like everybody in town knew the macalone's, everybody
(11:17):
knew the mcaloneys. He doesn't like his last name.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Hmmm, it's terrible. It's a great name.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
I think so too, But apparently, and I don't know
why people would have a hard time saying it, he's
now talking about changing his name. Now. I'm as the
kids say, I think this is sus because his wife
is against changing the name, his kids are against changing
(11:44):
the name. So I don't think it's really going to happen.
But it is true that people have such a hard
time with his name because his good friend that he
does the show Welcome to Wexham with about the soccer
team they own. They yeah, they own it. Yeah, they
own the team. They said, well, they've done a docu
series on it, so they made that money up a
thousand times over that they used to buy it. They're
(12:04):
very smart business people. But Ryan Reynolds did a song
about his name just so people could learn his name,
and now he's going to change it.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Can't change it that song.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
See. I think here's the reason I think it's all suspect.
It's because the new season of It's Always Sonny and
Philadelphia starts July ninth, this weekend, and so I think
this is just a way to get publicity. And they're
brilliant at getting publicity for Welcome to Wexham. They got
huge publicity for doing that and that promoted the show.
(12:39):
So I think this is all very suspect. I don't
I don't think he's going to change his name, and
I'll tell you what. I know. His older brothers they'll
beat him up, they'll kick his butt, right because they're
living off that name now too.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Oh that's right, that's true, so Rob Mack.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
So the whole family have to change their names. Oh.
I can just hear them too, this large Catholic family saying,
you're disrespecting our father. You are disrespecting our father who
works so hard. Yeah. No, I cannot believe that he
is going to be able to change his name and
live and go to any family for you.
Speaker 8 (13:18):
And that just remind me because my grandfather changed our
last name, but his brothers didn't change their name.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
I wonder what they felt about that. Never never never
discussed that with anyone that'd be interesting to know. It
was Batadakis, nice long Greek name. Yeah, and went to Beatos.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
That turned out to be a good move.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
I think he thought so too. I was very appreciative
of it. But I know you can keep it.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Yeah, exactly. Does that sound like an odd name to you?
That's how that's a I like it. It's an actual
cool name. I understand the people he wants to change it.
By the way, I didn't tell you what he wants
to change it to He wants to change it to Mac.
His last name is Jess Mac. But it's not going
to happen. It's this is a bogus story because the
(14:07):
kids don't want it, and there's no way he's going
to do it if his kids don't want it. As
a father, I can attest to that, right exactly. All right,
let's get the news at six point thirty with Jacqueline Carl. Jacqueline.
Unless you're going to change your name.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
Jacqueline macklhoney, Jack, what else would it be? Good morning?
Speaker 8 (14:26):
The Senate has been working through the night in an
effort to advance President Trump's Big Beautiful Bill. Majority Leader
John Thune told reporters before a break for dinner that
Republicans are trying to find a way to stick the landing.
The legislation is projected to add over three trillion dollars
to the national debt over the next decade, and New
York City's school speed cameras will remain on through at
(14:48):
least twenty thirty.
Speaker 9 (14:50):
Governor Kathy Hochel signed legislation extending the program, saying speed
cameras have been proven to save lives by discouraging reckless
driving across the city. According to data, speeding violations have
dropped by ninety four percent where cameras are installed, and
there are fourteen percent fewer fatalities and injuries in these locations.
There are currently more than twenty four hundred speed cameras
(15:12):
in place across the five boroughs. Natalie Migliori WOOR News.
Speaker 8 (15:17):
So, I want to know what you guys think. I've
always understood a prenup. We all get that you get
it all set before you get married. But now post
nuptial agreements are more of a thing than ever. According
to WTOP, a survey found that fifteen percent of Americans
who are married or engaged have a prenup. But what
you might not know is a post nuptial agreement and
(15:39):
its legal document that's catching on is not just for
the mega rich. A postnup is essentially an amendment to
a prenup and can address issues surrounding a new business,
a financial windfall, new debt, and other issues. It can
also be used when there's infidelity in the marriage as
a kind of a warning shot before a divorce. I
don't see based whether you're the person that's being asked
(16:03):
to sign a posting up with you the husband or
your wife?
Speaker 3 (16:06):
What is your incentive to do this? It's a done deal.
You're married. Oh, you just came into a windfall of
a load of money.
Speaker 8 (16:13):
You want me to make sure I don't get any Yes,
send the paper in the pen over, I'll get back
to you.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
You're absolutely right, because it's gonna be one party that's
gonna want it. Yeah, and then immediately you have to
start and ask questions, why do you want this now?
What happened? What change? What exactly changed? That's going to
be a series of not only uncomfortable questions, but a
lot of uncomfortable nights.
Speaker 10 (16:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (16:39):
Yes, I just never understood a posting up. I never
understood it. Maybe there's something to it that I've just
because I haven't been involved in one. But I just
can't see myself signing one, or getting someone to sign
one because it's not in their best interest.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
It doesn't sound to me like I know Rab mclinnry,
he's not gonna do that with you. Don't worry, Thank god,
thank god, it's gonna be all good. Oh he's married already.
That wouldn't work, sister. Watch we'll lead all that money
to support us all.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
Have you seen him? You know what we're talking about?
Speaker 11 (17:11):
No?
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Here? Is he handsome? Is he cute? All right?
Speaker 1 (17:19):
So that moneys, no post nups, Thank you very much,
Jacqueline Carlo Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanya, who has announced
he's headed to Washington to meet with President Trump's they're
like Batman and Robin. Now. ABC correspondent Giordana Miller will
preview the trip next and don't forget. You can leave
(17:40):
us a talk back all morning long ago to seven
ten WR on the iHeartRadio app and you just click
the microphone and when you're there, put seven to ten
WOOR on your presets. Plus you could win a limited
edition Minti in the Morning t shirt that everybody wants.
But the only way you can get one is by
winning Talkback of the Morning. It's going to be awarded
(18:03):
today and every day to our favorite talkback of the
morning to Minty in the Morning on WOOR. Well, it's
been announced that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahoo from Israel is
going to have talks at the White House with President
Trump after the holiday weekend. So what are they expected
to talk about and will there be a big announcement.
(18:26):
Let's talk to Jordana Miller, ABC News correspondent in Jerusalem.
She'll be there one in just one second. Every once
in a while we have a problem with the connection
in Israel. But I would think since they've been talking
so much about the Abraham Accords and Benjamin Netanyaho's not
(18:46):
just going to come here unless they're going to take
a victory lap over what happened in Iran, that the
Abraham Accords may come up. So let's now talk to
Jordana Miller, ABC News corresponded in Jerusalem. Your Dana, ahead
of this meeting, what are the expectations do we know?
Is there going to be an announcement?
Speaker 12 (19:06):
Well, the Israeli Prime Minister has not made a detailed
public statement, but he sure seems to be strongly hinting
that when he meets with the President next week, and
he said he's going next week. We've confirmed the meeting
is Monday with President Trump, but the Prime Minister hasn't
said that. He said he's heading to Washington next week
(19:30):
and that he's going to try to capitalize on what
he calls the victory against Iran, and that is likely
to take the form of advancing the Abraham Accords, that
regional peace, that circle of peace, as the Prime Minister
likes to call it, trying to bring in new countries,
(19:53):
and the one that we're hearing a lot about through
sources is Syria. Right, this wouldn't be a peace deal
with Syria, but it would be a non belligerent packed,
a treaty where Israel and Syria would agree not to
attack each other and they would lay out certain parameters,
(20:17):
and that would be a predecessor to a peace deal, right,
because there's still the issue of the Golan Heights, which
is contested, and I don't think the sides are going
to be able to come to an agreement on that
in the coming weeks. It's just not enough time, right,
And this government in Syria is trying to establish itself,
(20:37):
It has a lot of work to do. But even
a non belligerency pack would be really a step forward.
And then of course the issue of Gaza. We know
that the President wants to end the war in Gaza.
The Israeli Prime Minister appears to be indicating he too
wants to get a deal that will bring the hostages
(20:59):
home and end the war. And the only question Is.
You know, how are they going to make that happen
when Hamas wants to definitively end the war, right and
until now, Joel's been unwilling to agree to that and
a full withdrawal of every Israeli true from gods and soil,
(21:20):
and the Israelis have refused to do that too. So
there's going to have to be some pressure put on
both sides by President Trump to get a deal. But
Natanya is no dummy. He's looking forward. He knows that
the Israeli election cycle is coming up, right, he may
even go to it a bit early. He wants to
(21:41):
ride the wave of this victory over Iran, and he
doesn't want to get bogged down and all the bad
news and piling up of deaths of soldiers and the
deteriorating condition of the hostages. Remember there's fifty there, twenty
presumed to be alive, thirty bodies N'tagnelle doesn't want to
lose his political bump, if you will, from the war,
(22:05):
and so that's a very strong motivating factor for him
to move towards ending the Gaza war. And I think
that's why we're headed in for the first time a
really good direction, which I think will yield something on
the Gaza front.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
Yeah, it's interesting. I've talked to you in the past
about the poll numbers in Israel for Donald Trump and
the poll numbers in Israel for Benjamin Netan Yahoo, and
you always told me Trump is much more popular in
Israel than Netan Yahoo. Has that changed since the strikes
on Iran?
Speaker 12 (22:42):
Yes, it has changed, Larry N'thaannelle. In recent polls, the
Could party was back up to thirty two to thirty
three seats. I mean, that's almost a full recovery from
before October seventh, his party fell as low is twenty four,
twenty five, twenty six seats. So there's no doubt that
(23:04):
Nataille has recovered somewhat in the public eye since the
Twelve Day War right against Iran whereas well, really, you know,
they really pummeled Iran in several areas, and Natagnie was
able to bring in the help of President Trump and
(23:27):
that bombing campaign on the fordw Isfahan and the Toms facilities.
We focus so much on fordew, but we forget that
President Trump bombed to other nuclear sites as well, which
were also key to Iran's nuclear program. So Natanielle has
recovered and he's clearly wants to make the most of that,
(23:51):
you know, to lengthen, right his his stay in office.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Right, it makes so much sense that there'll be an
announcement on Monday, and I know that right now. It's
a speculation, but speculation based on your expertise and the
expertise of ABC News that there would be an announcement
about the Abraham Accords. And Syria does make a lot
of sense as well, because they just normalized the United
States just normalize relations with Syria. That to me, and
(24:22):
you can tell me if I'm wrong about this, that's
a big step forward for the area. The fact that
Syria first of all normalize relations but then is going
to be a part of the Abraham Accords. That's big
for not only Donald Trump. That'll be big for net
and Yahoo. Will it not? It will?
Speaker 12 (24:41):
And I think there might be other countries like Oman Indonesia, right,
who have been kind of silent partners with Israel over
the years, which is often the case with the regional
Arab countries that end up going into peace deals with Israel.
It's often preceded by a decade or more of secret
(25:05):
relationships right, secret ties. That was the case for the Egyptians,
that was the case with the Jordanians, with the Amortis,
with Baharain, with Morocco. You know, sometimes Israeli officials talk
about these connections, these ties really just going public for
the first time, but ones that have been built over
(25:26):
many years. So it will be a coup for Natoniel.
But I think we should temper our expectations. Monday, we
could hear some joint talk about jump starting the Gaza
cease fire talks, some breakthrough with the talks, some breakthrough
(25:48):
with the Abraham Accords. I don't know if we're going
to actually hear an announcement, you know, of a deal
that's already been sealed on Monday. That may be too soon,
but nonetheless, even progress towards this and concrete steps and
a framework that would finally allow Nitanyell to come down
(26:11):
from the tree and the war in Gaza. Even though
Hamas has not been totally destroyed, which is what he
always vowed to do, right, he needs an exit ramp
as well, So we'll have to wait and see that.
I think, you know, all the indicators are pointing towards
some progress on these two fronts.
Speaker 1 (26:32):
Yeah, thank you so much, Jordanah Miller, ABC News correspondent,
She's coming to us from Jerusalem. That would be a
major step forward if Syria became part of the Abraham Accords,
which he by the way, Trump never got enough credit for.
CNN promotes an app that WARN's illegals about ice officers
(26:52):
in the area, and the developer now may be in
some really deep trouble. We'll talk about that next. I
think one of the small artist things that Trump administration
did when it came to the media was open up
the White House briefings to alternative media and for some
some outlets that never get to ask questions, that never
(27:15):
get to be up close to the podium, that never
get to represent their viewers, their listeners, their readers in
a way that they should be able to. And because
the media landscape has changed so much now, some people
(27:35):
don't watch the networks at all. They go to podcasts,
they go online, they go to other sources. That's why
some of the people, and it was Donald Trump, on
the advice of his son Baron of all people that
went to the podcast that went to alternative media, and
it was one of the reasons he didn't have to
spend a whole lot of money, and he still won
(27:57):
the election because he was the first one, the first
presidential candidate certainly to tap into it. Now everybody's doing it,
and so you get some fascinating questions at the White
House briefings because of this. And yesterday, I don't know
if you were watching, a tech reporter got up and
asked Caroline Levitt if she had heard about this app
(28:20):
that's been developed and used that warns people about ice
being in the area, And of course Caroline Levitt said no,
I haven't, but thanks, We're going to check that out,
and then she.
Speaker 13 (28:32):
Went on, it's unacceptable that a major network would promote
such an app that is encouraging violence against law enforcement
officers who are trying to keep our country safe.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
That major network is CNN. They did a whole, big
special on it. The apps called ice block and the
developer is Joshua Aaron.
Speaker 7 (28:54):
So imagine if you're walking down the street and a
notification comes up on your device it says ice four
blocks ahead. Instead of continuing down that path, you can
turn left or turn around and avoid the situation.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Altogether, right, And it's become extremely popular overnight.
Speaker 7 (29:12):
As of today, we have twenty thousand users.
Speaker 10 (29:15):
We're hoping to grow that ten or one hundred times,
of course, but there is no sign up process, there
is no user data collected, there's no user data even
captured by our app.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
That digital sound in the background, that was a special
effect put in by CNN. They did a big piece
on it. They did an enormous peace on this and
promoted it. But now that they got the attention of
the White House and they got the attention of the
Department of Homeland Security, the developer, Joshua Aaron, may be
in some trouble now.
Speaker 14 (29:48):
Examples like these apps are absolutely obstructing justice. What our
ice enforcement officers are doing is enforcing.
Speaker 3 (29:56):
The rule of law.
Speaker 14 (29:57):
If these rioters, these activists, and these politicians don't like
the law, they should change it. Don't go after ice
law enforcement. It's disgusting, it's wrong, and it is noun American.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
Yeah, listen to what Trichy McLaughlin just said. If these
activists and these protesters don't like the law, they have
to try to change it. But what if they don't
like ICE officers. We've seen ICE officers attacked, We've seen
rubber bullets shot at them. We've seen their cars set
on fire. What if somebody attacks one of these ice
(30:32):
officers because they learn about it on this ice block app.
I'm sure the developer, Joshua Aaron didn't think that far ahead.
But not only is he obstructing justice, but he's putting
federal officers' lives in danger. They've already been attacked, they've
already been docks, there've already been threats on their lives,
(30:53):
and this moron decides to let people know exactly where
they are. And that's why law Profess Sir John Yu
thinks there could be charges.
Speaker 11 (31:03):
So I think this person should be investigated. I think
the app should be brought down by the government, and
I think people who are using it should be investigated
for trying to obstruct federal law enforcement. That is a crime.
This is not just playing around with apps. This is
a federal crime.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
What is wrong with people? There becomes this obsession with
anything that is anti Trump, And don't people realize every
time they do something like this, it backfires every single time.
I hope they go after this kid. I hope they
go after him. I'm calling him a kid, but he's
(31:39):
not that young. He's probably in his early thirties, but
he looks like a kid. But I hope they go
after him because they got to send a message that
this stuff has to stop and we got to protect
federal officers. I'll keep covering the story in the days
to come. The jury in the Sean Cohembs trial is
complaining to the judge about your number twenty five. What
(32:01):
does this mean for the trial. We'll talk about that
after the seven o'clock News
I was a wet one today. If you're driving in
or you're about to drive in, realize there may be
some leftover showers this morning, even a storm this morning,
and then there's gonna be another thunderstorm tonight at five o'clock.
The nice thing is, so we have to get through this.
We have to get through this. Tomorrow there's gonna be
(00:20):
showers and thunderstorms as well. So we got a couple
of days of this. But the fourth of July weekend
looks pretty good. Thursday and Friday especially sunny, nice in
the eighties. So just make it through these couple of days.
But really be careful driving in this morning. In the
Big Three, well, believe it or not, voter drama, voter rama.
(00:45):
I like voter drama better. I actually like voter drama.
Voter rama in the US said, it is still going on.
It's been going on all night on amendment after amendment
in the big beautiful bill. Well that in the end
is expected to pass and go to the House. Well,
by the way, that's not a sure thing.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
I don't think any of us can anticipate that it
will just flow through smoothly. So I am personally not
optimistic we'll have this fi.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
July for Yeah, we have the Senate proceedings up live
and we're watching it and we'll keep you updated and
if something big happens, we'll play it for you. Well,
the Rent Guidelines Board has approved a rent increase in
the city of three percent for one year leases four
and a half percent for two year leases. And nobody
is happy. Let's a waste of time.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
This is done every year for no good.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
People are making money, but we're not making more money.
Speaker 4 (01:43):
I look at six hundred dollars a year more on
a one year lease, or nine hundred dollars more a.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Year, and that means what are we going to cut
back on? Right there are the tenants, the landlords, the
building owners. They're not happy either. They wanted six percent.
Oh and by the way, today Jersey transit fairs go
up three percent. Oh, it's going to be a burden
my belts.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Tite as it is right now, and I can't even
go another notch. And got really have to decide if
I'm going to take transit again.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Everybody's still talking about Zora and Mom Donnie, and now
Democrats are saying he may show a path forward for
a lost Democratic Party. This is the identity crisis that
they have. I think it's just a collection of people
that don't like Trump right now. Citizen journalist Jason Goodman,
founder of crowd Source the News, will be with us
(02:39):
at eight oh five this morning. We haven't talked with
him since Mom Donnie's henchman tried to intimidate him after
he asked a couple of questions. Uh, he've asked a
couple of questions to the candidate for mayor. Back well,
I guess it was like six weeks ago, a couple
of months ago.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Been back in March.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Yeah, we have to have him on more. He's really
good and he's he he will talk about all. I
went to his site and I saw he's reposting the
mom Donnie stuff. When the henchman went over to him
and he was great though, back off, back off. In
the Diddy trial, the jury is complaining to the judge
about Jurer number twenty five. Jury number twenty five happens
(03:16):
to be a scientist from Manhattan.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
This is someone who speaking sticking to the guns and
not agreeing with a lot of what the other jurors
are saying. That's the kind of person the defense wants,
so that's the last person they would want thrown off
a jury.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Peter Haralambus will have the latest on deliberations at seven
five and on Long Island, the drones will be out
in full force this fourth of July weekend after a
shark attack and several shark sightings.
Speaker 5 (03:47):
As soon as someone sees anything even questionable will have
it called into park operations utilizing lifeguards. Swimmers will be
removed from the water at that location.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
Right, good idea. There have been ten shark attacks on
Long Island beaches in the last three years. Well, let's
get to the big beautiful bill. Look, I'm watching a
live feet of it, and there's Bernie Sanders all packed
up and going for a nap. They're all just the
senators are all just milling around right now. This is
(04:20):
such a baby fit by the Democrats. They're going to
keep putting up amendment after amendment after amendment to vote for,
just like they insisted that the whole bill be read.
That was Chucky Schumer who didn't stay for it. By
the way he left. He wasn't there when the bill
was being read. He just did it because he wants
to delay the bill they know it's going to happen.
(04:44):
Instead of just getting out of the way and letting
it happen, they're not going to They're gonna have this
little fit. They're gonna it's like a kid in a mall,
just laying on his back, kicking and screaming and yelling
because they know they can't stop this, so they just
want to slow it down. And you know why because
Donald Trump said he wants it on his desk by
(05:06):
July fourth. Now there's a couple important deadlines after the
July fourth weekend, including a huge tax hike that was
left like a bomb by the Democrats in one of
their huge expense of trillion dollar bills, and so they
put it. They didn't want to do it during the
(05:27):
Biden administration, and if he did win reelection, they wanted
to do it after his reelection and early in his term.
So they did it in July of twenty twenty five.
The biggest tax hike in American history is going to
happen unless this bill is passed and signed in time.
(05:48):
And the deadline that Donald Trump has set is July fourth,
and so the Democrats are doing everything. Remember it, remember it.
If this tax Sike goes through. Remember it was the
Democrats not only passed it with a majority, but then
they delayed and delayed and delayed to make sure it happened.
I don't know what they're going Maybe they're getting the
(06:09):
money personally, I don't know. I don't know why they're
so into this. But the Republicans are doing all they can.
It's going to pass fifty one to forty nine. That's
what's going to happen. Everybody knows that's what's going to happen.
At the very end of this, it's going to pass
without two votes. Tom till was from North Carolina Republican
(06:30):
who I don't know what he's doing, but he just
ended his career and then ran Paul. Then everybody kind
of forgives and then funny heat he gets no incoming
because it's like, oh, he's Rand Paul. He always does this.
He's very true to what he believes, and even the
Republicans are giving a break on that. But Eric Schmidt,
(06:52):
the Senator is excited about this because he knows it's
going to happen, and it'll probably try at least Bill
attempt to rush through through the House.
Speaker 6 (07:02):
I'm excited to move forward with this bill. I mean
it delivers on President Trump's campaign promises. I spend a
lot of time with them on the campaign trail. No
tax on tips, no tax on overtime, extending the largest
tax cut in American history for working families, securing the border.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Right, there's a lot of great things in this bill.
Is it a perfect bill?
Speaker 7 (07:18):
No?
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Is there such a thing as a perfect bill. No,
But it's a really good bill. And they keep saying, oh,
there's tax hikes for the billionaires. Now everybody's going to
get a tax hike. And as you heard, there's going
to be no more taxes on Social Security. That's a
huge thing. And there's gonna be no more taxes on overtime,
and there's gonna be no more taxes on tips. For
(07:40):
the working class. That's enormous for guys that really just
work for overtime and then have a tax and sometimes
you jump into a higher tax bracket because of it.
That's enormous. For waitresses trying to feed a family, that's immense.
And the Democrats kicking and kicking and screen mean kicking
and screaming and keeping and screaming, say what about Medicaid?
(08:02):
What about Medicare you know who's getting kicked off Medicaid illegals?
When they keep throwing out this million, it's gonna be
a couple of million people. Yeah, they're all illegals. And
you know what else, If you're young and you can
work and you're taking Medicaid and you have no disability,
(08:23):
they want you to get a job. So you have
to prove that you work at least twenty hours a
week to get Medicaid. Does any of that doesn't that
sound reasonable? Does any of that sound insane to you?
Does any of that sound like we're they're ripping medicaid
from Americans? No, that's what's in the bill. But here's
(08:44):
the other part. There are some Republican House members that
have to get the bill next and they have to
pass it that aren't happy that Republicans in the Senate
added more money. These are budget hawks like Russ Fulcher
from Idaho.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
For me and for a lot of others, this does
not keep the trajectory bent downward in terms of the spending,
then we're going to have a problem in passing that
through the House. This is not a simple process, and
the House version only passed by one vote.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Yeah, yeah, so it may have a problem. There's going
to be a lot of Donald Trump phone calls pressuring
people to get in line because they can't. They cannot
lose a vote. And Fulture was a yes, and he
sounds like he's disappointed in what's coming his way. So
we'll keep watching it all day long. It's still on
(09:42):
right now with some very time. By this way, the
Senators look wide awake because they keep sleeping. They give
back to their cozy offices and sleeping. Those poor aids
and the Senate workers. Go to the iHeartRadio app now
and leave us a talk back. You could win a
limited edition Minty in the Morning t shirt if you're
a fan of its. Always Sonny in Philadelphia. May be surprised,
even disappointed that the actor and co creator wants to
(10:05):
change his name. We'll talk about that next. So you
know who Rob mclhenney is. Rob McIlhenny is the guy.
If you watch it, it's Always Sonny in Philadelphia. It's
going into its seventeenth season now, by the way, extremely
successful show. It has a cult following, but a large
cult following. People love the show. I've never watched it,
(10:29):
not one time.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
And I've never watched it once or twice.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
I really want to watch it me too, now I do.
I've heard nothing but good things about it. I mean,
really seriously, it's it's supposed to be this great show.
And I'm from Philadelphia. You know, you'd think i'd at
least watch it. But the guy Rob mclhenney grew up
down the street from me in Lansdown, Pennsylvania. The mclhenny
(10:53):
is there's like eleven kids in the family.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
That name just flows right out of.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
His It's a nice name, it's a good name. And
I was friend with his older brother, Jed, and I
don't know him. I never met him, don't know him,
but you know, he went on the Saint Jo's Prepp
and the University of Pennsylvania and then became this big writer.
But apparently, like everybody in town knew the macalone's, everybody
(11:17):
knew the mcaloneys. He doesn't like his last name.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Hmmm, it's terrible. It's a great name.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
I think so too, But apparently, and I don't know
why people would have a hard time saying it, he's
now talking about changing his name. Now. I'm as the
kids say, I think this is sus because his wife
is against changing the name, his kids are against changing
(11:44):
the name. So I don't think it's really going to happen.
But it is true that people have such a hard
time with his name because his good friend that he
does the show Welcome to Wexham with about the soccer
team they own. They yeah, they own it. Yeah, they
own the team. They said, well, they've done a docu
series on it, so they made that money up a
thousand times over that they used to buy it. They're
(12:04):
very smart business people. But Ryan Reynolds did a song
about his name just so people could learn his name,
and now he's going to change it.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Can't change it that song.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
See. I think here's the reason I think it's all suspect.
It's because the new season of It's Always Sonny and
Philadelphia starts July ninth, this weekend, and so I think
this is just a way to get publicity. And they're
brilliant at getting publicity for Welcome to Wexham. They got
huge publicity for doing that and that promoted the show.
(12:39):
So I think this is all very suspect. I don't
I don't think he's going to change his name, and
I'll tell you what. I know. His older brothers they'll
beat him up, they'll kick his butt, right because they're
living off that name now too.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Oh that's right, that's true, so Rob Mack.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
So the whole family have to change their names. Oh.
I can just hear them too, this large Catholic family saying,
you're disrespecting our father. You are disrespecting our father who
works so hard. Yeah. No, I cannot believe that he
is going to be able to change his name and
live and go to any family for you.
Speaker 8 (13:18):
And that just remind me because my grandfather changed our
last name, but his brothers didn't change their name.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
I wonder what they felt about that. Never never never
discussed that with anyone that'd be interesting to know. It
was Batadakis, nice long Greek name. Yeah, and went to Beatos.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
That turned out to be a good move.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
I think he thought so too. I was very appreciative
of it. But I know you can keep it.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Yeah, exactly. Does that sound like an odd name to you?
That's how that's a I like it. It's an actual
cool name. I understand the people he wants to change it.
By the way, I didn't tell you what he wants
to change it to He wants to change it to Mac.
His last name is Jess Mac. But it's not going
to happen. It's this is a bogus story because the
(14:07):
kids don't want it, and there's no way he's going
to do it if his kids don't want it. As
a father, I can attest to that, right exactly. All right,
let's get the news at six point thirty with Jacqueline Carl. Jacqueline.
Unless you're going to change your name.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
Jacqueline macklhoney, Jack, what else would it be? Good morning?
Speaker 8 (14:26):
The Senate has been working through the night in an
effort to advance President Trump's Big Beautiful Bill. Majority Leader
John Thune told reporters before a break for dinner that
Republicans are trying to find a way to stick the landing.
The legislation is projected to add over three trillion dollars
to the national debt over the next decade, and New
York City's school speed cameras will remain on through at
(14:48):
least twenty thirty.
Speaker 9 (14:50):
Governor Kathy Hochel signed legislation extending the program, saying speed
cameras have been proven to save lives by discouraging reckless
driving across the city. According to data, speeding violations have
dropped by ninety four percent where cameras are installed, and
there are fourteen percent fewer fatalities and injuries in these locations.
There are currently more than twenty four hundred speed cameras
(15:12):
in place across the five boroughs. Natalie Migliori WOOR News.
Speaker 8 (15:17):
So, I want to know what you guys think. I've
always understood a prenup. We all get that you get
it all set before you get married. But now post
nuptial agreements are more of a thing than ever. According
to WTOP, a survey found that fifteen percent of Americans
who are married or engaged have a prenup. But what
you might not know is a post nuptial agreement and
(15:39):
its legal document that's catching on is not just for
the mega rich. A postnup is essentially an amendment to
a prenup and can address issues surrounding a new business,
a financial windfall, new debt, and other issues. It can
also be used when there's infidelity in the marriage as
a kind of a warning shot before a divorce. I
don't see based whether you're the person that's being asked
(16:03):
to sign a posting up with you the husband or
your wife?
Speaker 3 (16:06):
What is your incentive to do this? It's a done deal.
You're married. Oh, you just came into a windfall of
a load of money.
Speaker 8 (16:13):
You want me to make sure I don't get any Yes,
send the paper in the pen over, I'll get back
to you.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
You're absolutely right, because it's gonna be one party that's
gonna want it. Yeah, and then immediately you have to
start and ask questions, why do you want this now?
What happened? What change? What exactly changed? That's going to
be a series of not only uncomfortable questions, but a
lot of uncomfortable nights.
Speaker 10 (16:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (16:39):
Yes, I just never understood a posting up. I never
understood it. Maybe there's something to it that I've just
because I haven't been involved in one. But I just
can't see myself signing one, or getting someone to sign
one because it's not in their best interest.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
It doesn't sound to me like I know Rab mclinnry,
he's not gonna do that with you. Don't worry, Thank god,
thank god, it's gonna be all good. Oh he's married already.
That wouldn't work, sister. Watch we'll lead all that money
to support us all.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
Have you seen him? You know what we're talking about?
Speaker 11 (17:11):
No?
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Here? Is he handsome? Is he cute? All right?
Speaker 1 (17:19):
So that moneys, no post nups, Thank you very much,
Jacqueline Carlo Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanya, who has announced
he's headed to Washington to meet with President Trump's they're
like Batman and Robin. Now. ABC correspondent Giordana Miller will
preview the trip next and don't forget. You can leave
(17:40):
us a talk back all morning long ago to seven
ten WR on the iHeartRadio app and you just click
the microphone and when you're there, put seven to ten
WOOR on your presets. Plus you could win a limited
edition Minti in the Morning t shirt that everybody wants.
But the only way you can get one is by
winning Talkback of the Morning. It's going to be awarded
(18:03):
today and every day to our favorite talkback of the
morning to Minty in the Morning on WOOR. Well, it's
been announced that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahoo from Israel is
going to have talks at the White House with President
Trump after the holiday weekend. So what are they expected
to talk about and will there be a big announcement.
(18:26):
Let's talk to Jordana Miller, ABC News correspondent in Jerusalem.
She'll be there one in just one second. Every once
in a while we have a problem with the connection
in Israel. But I would think since they've been talking
so much about the Abraham Accords and Benjamin Netanyaho's not
(18:46):
just going to come here unless they're going to take
a victory lap over what happened in Iran, that the
Abraham Accords may come up. So let's now talk to
Jordana Miller, ABC News corresponded in Jerusalem. Your Dana, ahead
of this meeting, what are the expectations do we know?
Is there going to be an announcement?
Speaker 12 (19:06):
Well, the Israeli Prime Minister has not made a detailed
public statement, but he sure seems to be strongly hinting
that when he meets with the President next week, and
he said he's going next week. We've confirmed the meeting
is Monday with President Trump, but the Prime Minister hasn't
said that. He said he's heading to Washington next week
(19:30):
and that he's going to try to capitalize on what
he calls the victory against Iran, and that is likely
to take the form of advancing the Abraham Accords, that
regional peace, that circle of peace, as the Prime Minister
likes to call it, trying to bring in new countries,
(19:53):
and the one that we're hearing a lot about through
sources is Syria. Right, this wouldn't be a peace deal
with Syria, but it would be a non belligerent packed,
a treaty where Israel and Syria would agree not to
attack each other and they would lay out certain parameters,
(20:17):
and that would be a predecessor to a peace deal, right,
because there's still the issue of the Golan Heights, which
is contested, and I don't think the sides are going
to be able to come to an agreement on that
in the coming weeks. It's just not enough time, right,
And this government in Syria is trying to establish itself,
(20:37):
It has a lot of work to do. But even
a non belligerency pack would be really a step forward.
And then of course the issue of Gaza. We know
that the President wants to end the war in Gaza.
The Israeli Prime Minister appears to be indicating he too
wants to get a deal that will bring the hostages
(20:59):
home and end the war. And the only question Is.
You know, how are they going to make that happen
when Hamas wants to definitively end the war, right and
until now, Joel's been unwilling to agree to that and
a full withdrawal of every Israeli true from gods and soil,
(21:20):
and the Israelis have refused to do that too. So
there's going to have to be some pressure put on
both sides by President Trump to get a deal. But
Natanya is no dummy. He's looking forward. He knows that
the Israeli election cycle is coming up, right, he may
even go to it a bit early. He wants to
(21:41):
ride the wave of this victory over Iran, and he
doesn't want to get bogged down and all the bad
news and piling up of deaths of soldiers and the
deteriorating condition of the hostages. Remember there's fifty there, twenty
presumed to be alive, thirty bodies N'tagnelle doesn't want to
lose his political bump, if you will, from the war,
(22:05):
and so that's a very strong motivating factor for him
to move towards ending the Gaza war. And I think
that's why we're headed in for the first time a
really good direction, which I think will yield something on
the Gaza front.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
Yeah, it's interesting. I've talked to you in the past
about the poll numbers in Israel for Donald Trump and
the poll numbers in Israel for Benjamin Netan Yahoo, and
you always told me Trump is much more popular in
Israel than Netan Yahoo. Has that changed since the strikes
on Iran?
Speaker 12 (22:42):
Yes, it has changed, Larry N'thaannelle. In recent polls, the
Could party was back up to thirty two to thirty
three seats. I mean, that's almost a full recovery from
before October seventh, his party fell as low is twenty four,
twenty five, twenty six seats. So there's no doubt that
(23:04):
Nataille has recovered somewhat in the public eye since the
Twelve Day War right against Iran whereas well, really, you know,
they really pummeled Iran in several areas, and Natagnie was
able to bring in the help of President Trump and
(23:27):
that bombing campaign on the fordw Isfahan and the Toms facilities.
We focus so much on fordew, but we forget that
President Trump bombed to other nuclear sites as well, which
were also key to Iran's nuclear program. So Natanielle has
recovered and he's clearly wants to make the most of that,
(23:51):
you know, to lengthen, right his his stay in office.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Right, it makes so much sense that there'll be an
announcement on Monday, and I know that right now. It's
a speculation, but speculation based on your expertise and the
expertise of ABC News that there would be an announcement
about the Abraham Accords. And Syria does make a lot
of sense as well, because they just normalized the United
States just normalize relations with Syria. That to me, and
(24:22):
you can tell me if I'm wrong about this, that's
a big step forward for the area. The fact that
Syria first of all normalize relations but then is going
to be a part of the Abraham Accords. That's big
for not only Donald Trump. That'll be big for net
and Yahoo. Will it not? It will?
Speaker 12 (24:41):
And I think there might be other countries like Oman Indonesia, right,
who have been kind of silent partners with Israel over
the years, which is often the case with the regional
Arab countries that end up going into peace deals with Israel.
It's often preceded by a decade or more of secret
(25:05):
relationships right, secret ties. That was the case for the Egyptians,
that was the case with the Jordanians, with the Amortis,
with Baharain, with Morocco. You know, sometimes Israeli officials talk
about these connections, these ties really just going public for
the first time, but ones that have been built over
(25:26):
many years. So it will be a coup for Natoniel.
But I think we should temper our expectations. Monday, we
could hear some joint talk about jump starting the Gaza
cease fire talks, some breakthrough with the talks, some breakthrough
(25:48):
with the Abraham Accords. I don't know if we're going
to actually hear an announcement, you know, of a deal
that's already been sealed on Monday. That may be too soon,
but nonetheless, even progress towards this and concrete steps and
a framework that would finally allow Nitanyell to come down
(26:11):
from the tree and the war in Gaza. Even though
Hamas has not been totally destroyed, which is what he
always vowed to do, right, he needs an exit ramp
as well, So we'll have to wait and see that.
I think, you know, all the indicators are pointing towards
some progress on these two fronts.
Speaker 1 (26:32):
Yeah, thank you so much, Jordanah Miller, ABC News correspondent,
She's coming to us from Jerusalem. That would be a
major step forward if Syria became part of the Abraham Accords,
which he by the way, Trump never got enough credit for.
CNN promotes an app that WARN's illegals about ice officers
(26:52):
in the area, and the developer now may be in
some really deep trouble. We'll talk about that next. I
think one of the small artist things that Trump administration
did when it came to the media was open up
the White House briefings to alternative media and for some
some outlets that never get to ask questions, that never
(27:15):
get to be up close to the podium, that never
get to represent their viewers, their listeners, their readers in
a way that they should be able to. And because
the media landscape has changed so much now, some people
(27:35):
don't watch the networks at all. They go to podcasts,
they go online, they go to other sources. That's why
some of the people, and it was Donald Trump, on
the advice of his son Baron of all people that
went to the podcast that went to alternative media, and
it was one of the reasons he didn't have to
spend a whole lot of money, and he still won
(27:57):
the election because he was the first one, the first
presidential candidate certainly to tap into it. Now everybody's doing it,
and so you get some fascinating questions at the White
House briefings because of this. And yesterday, I don't know
if you were watching, a tech reporter got up and
asked Caroline Levitt if she had heard about this app
(28:20):
that's been developed and used that warns people about ice
being in the area, And of course Caroline Levitt said no,
I haven't, but thanks, We're going to check that out,
and then she.
Speaker 13 (28:32):
Went on, it's unacceptable that a major network would promote
such an app that is encouraging violence against law enforcement
officers who are trying to keep our country safe.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
That major network is CNN. They did a whole, big
special on it. The apps called ice block and the
developer is Joshua Aaron.
Speaker 7 (28:54):
So imagine if you're walking down the street and a
notification comes up on your device it says ice four
blocks ahead. Instead of continuing down that path, you can
turn left or turn around and avoid the situation.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Altogether, right, And it's become extremely popular overnight.
Speaker 7 (29:12):
As of today, we have twenty thousand users.
Speaker 10 (29:15):
We're hoping to grow that ten or one hundred times,
of course, but there is no sign up process, there
is no user data collected, there's no user data even
captured by our app.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
That digital sound in the background, that was a special
effect put in by CNN. They did a big piece
on it. They did an enormous peace on this and
promoted it. But now that they got the attention of
the White House and they got the attention of the
Department of Homeland Security, the developer, Joshua Aaron, may be
in some trouble now.
Speaker 14 (29:48):
Examples like these apps are absolutely obstructing justice. What our
ice enforcement officers are doing is enforcing.
Speaker 3 (29:56):
The rule of law.
Speaker 14 (29:57):
If these rioters, these activists, and these politicians don't like
the law, they should change it. Don't go after ice
law enforcement. It's disgusting, it's wrong, and it is noun American.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
Yeah, listen to what Trichy McLaughlin just said. If these
activists and these protesters don't like the law, they have
to try to change it. But what if they don't
like ICE officers. We've seen ICE officers attacked, We've seen
rubber bullets shot at them. We've seen their cars set
on fire. What if somebody attacks one of these ice
(30:32):
officers because they learn about it on this ice block app.
I'm sure the developer, Joshua Aaron didn't think that far ahead.
But not only is he obstructing justice, but he's putting
federal officers' lives in danger. They've already been attacked, they've
already been docks, there've already been threats on their lives,
(30:53):
and this moron decides to let people know exactly where
they are. And that's why law Profess Sir John Yu
thinks there could be charges.
Speaker 11 (31:03):
So I think this person should be investigated. I think
the app should be brought down by the government, and
I think people who are using it should be investigated
for trying to obstruct federal law enforcement. That is a crime.
This is not just playing around with apps. This is
a federal crime.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
What is wrong with people? There becomes this obsession with
anything that is anti Trump, And don't people realize every
time they do something like this, it backfires every single time.
I hope they go after this kid. I hope they
go after him. I'm calling him a kid, but he's
(31:39):
not that young. He's probably in his early thirties, but
he looks like a kid. But I hope they go
after him because they got to send a message that
this stuff has to stop and we got to protect
federal officers. I'll keep covering the story in the days
to come. The jury in the Sean Cohembs trial is
complaining to the judge about your number twenty five. What
(32:01):
does this mean for the trial. We'll talk about that
after the seven o'clock News
