Speaker 1 (00:00):
Now he's seventeen woars. Beat on the Street with Natalie Migliore.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
Well, what else would be the topic of Natalie Migliori's
Beat on the Street except the reaction to the American
airstrike in Iran. Natalie, good morning, Good.

Speaker 3 (00:20):
Morning, Larry. Well, forget about reaction on New York City streets.
It's really just been a reaction every weekend, throughout the
weekend from people all over, elected officials and everything. After
President Trump announced the US bombed three nuclear sites in Iran, Ansi,
war protests had broken out across the country on Sunday,
including right here in New York City. So, of course,

(00:42):
what do everyday people think.

Speaker 4 (00:44):
I really wish we would stay out of it, to
be honest with you. You know, the President had stated
that he was not going to get involved in any wars,
and here he is getting involved. So I wish we
would focus more on the issues that are going on
in this country.

Speaker 5 (01:00):
Gonna sound crazy, but somebody have to do what I
have to do, you know. And Donald Trump, you know,
is he's been doing what he's been promised. Bottom line,
whatever he have to do, we have to do to
put this nature on on on track.

Speaker 6 (01:12):
At the end of the day, it's going to be
what it's going to be. So you have to find
a common ground with everything and then just stay you know,
try to stay focused.

Speaker 7 (01:21):
Well.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
Governor Hochel says law enforcement across the state is focused
and on high alert, with security being increased as synagogues, mosts,
and other high risk locations. The NYPD echoed that sentiment,
and in the department is coordinating with federal partners. So
are people worried about retaliation?

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Even if I was, there's nothing I could do about it.
Everybody else is the ones that are dealing with it
and the ones is going to end up in the fallout.

Speaker 4 (01:48):
Is us unfortunately, always worried a little bit, you know,
after nine to eleven especially, So yeah, I yeah, a
little bit, a little.

Speaker 1 (01:56):
Bit of concern for sure.

Speaker 5 (01:58):
It is what it is. You know, everything is a
riginal life. You get up in the morning, you don't
know if you know you're gonna make it. It's like
that simple like that.

Speaker 7 (02:05):
I truly really hope not, because you know, our president
he's a bully, well.

Speaker 3 (02:11):
You know, Larry. Retaliation may not come in the form
we think. Experts say AARAN is considering closing a key
shipping route for oil and gas. But if something were
to happen, do New Yorkers think our law enforcement will
be able to intercept a thrive?

Speaker 4 (02:27):
You know? So yeah, I do trust in our NYPD
and intelligence, but you never know, there's always sleeper cells.
And let's just hope that we're saved.

Speaker 5 (02:38):
You know what.

Speaker 6 (02:39):
They're gonna do the best that they can, because remember,
their lives are at stake too, because you have radicals,
you have fanatics that just latch you into things. From
my perspective, they have a job to do as well,
because trust me, they would rather be home safe with
their families as well.

Speaker 7 (02:53):
They will definitely attempt to, but I don't know if
they'll be able to. We are very short staff, so
you know, and yp the fingers crossed hopefully now.

Speaker 3 (03:03):
The actor has drawn reaction from world leaders and local officials.
While Democrat Congresswoman Alexandria Ocazio Cortez is calling for the
president's impeachment, another Democrat, New Jersey Congressman Josh Gottheimer, says
the destruction of Iran's nuclear program is essential to ultimate
peace in the Middle East. Both again Democrats, New Yorker say,

(03:25):
this was a chance for lawmakers on both sides of
the isle, Larry, to come together.

Speaker 4 (03:30):
I would have hoped, you know, when something major like
this happens, that we're able to come together and you know,
work as a team as opposed to two separate parties.
You know, it's definitely a bipartisan issue.

Speaker 7 (03:44):
This would have been the right time for Democrats and
Republicans come together. Absolutely.

Speaker 1 (03:50):
See that's the problem. They like to shuffle the cards.
If they shuffle the cards, you don't know what's going on.
Like everybody says, they just tried to get all of
us against each other and then we don't give a
hand to the neighbor.

Speaker 3 (04:03):
Yeah, and you know, Larry, not much reaction in terms
of anything on x or formerly Twitter from Chuck Schumer.
Senator Chuck Schumer. People just sort of surprised by his
silence in that matter.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
Yeah, he's being attacked by Democrats right now, Chuck Schumer
is because of his silence on this. Obviously he supports it,
but it is such a weird place that we're in
that the Democratic Party. This was obviously the right thing
to do. The Democratic Party is so lost right now

(04:36):
with the American public. They can't come out and say, hey,
nice job, you made the world a safer place. Even
Chuck Schumer, who agrees with that, can't say because they
silence him.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
Right, and former Obama aide Dan Turnentine actually went on
accents that it has been a principle of our party
for forty years to make sure that Aron did not
have nuclear energy. So these are people who are coming
out from the party really saying exactly what you're saying.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
Last Yeah, good for him, good for him, Thank you
so much. Natalie me Gliori Natalie mink Gleiori will be
back tomorrow morning at eight point fifty with her Beat
on the Street.
