Speaker 1 (00:00):
Now it's seventeen Wars Beat on the Street with Natalie Migliori.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Well, the reports that Donald Trump wants to take over
the Nine to eleven Museum, it's not going over well
among some New Yorkers. Natalie Mgliori gets the Beat on
the Street now, Natalie, good morning.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Yeah, good morning, Larry. Well, it really seems like the
reports aren't going over well with people who maybe aren't
familiar with the situation, which is a lot of people
who are New Yorkers on the street, New Yorkers who
I talked to this morning not on board.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
I think it's crazy. I think a lot of people
lost their lives, and I think there should be some
type of respect left for them. I think he's doing
a lot of erradical, selfish things that have nothing to
do with us as Americans, and wants to.
Speaker 4 (00:55):
Take over everything. It doesn't matter. I can't believe people
even voted.
Speaker 5 (00:59):
For I don't know. He wants to be in control
of every little thing, every He's like, he wants to
micromanage every little part of America.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
Yeah, even though those on the street are not had
to be with the possibilities. The New York Post reports
nine to eleven families have four years push for the
memorial to be taken over by the National Park Service,
with efforts sort of reinvigorated after the outlet revealed the
nonprofit museum was allegedly paying a CEO more than seven
hundred and seventy five thousand dollars last year, putting it
(01:32):
in the red. But New Yorkers say it's hard to
believe the federal government will care for the memorial when
politicians won't even protect the people who were at ground zero.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
I means politicians that lie to all those workers who
that work down town. They had twenty thousand immigrants who
don't get coverage at all. Juliani was the biggest liar.
They told us the air was clean, it was okay.
He put all those people did. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (02:01):
I think a lot of people don't even realize a
lot of people who got sick from it. The Republicans
were trying to, you know, stop them from getting healthcare.
I remember John Stewart went on TV and made a
big rant about how these people are just you know,
disrespecting the responders who helped out and then they became sick.
Speaker 6 (02:19):
Yeah. Fully funding the World Trade Center healthcare program is
still an argument.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Up until today. It's in debate up until today. And
it all comes as President Trump pushes to take over
other museums like the Smithsonian in Washington to New Yorkers.
Kind of surprisingly.
Speaker 6 (02:36):
Actually to me, because you know, you approach everybody at
different times. Larry thinking alike on this one.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
I think he's trying to distract us from something else.
I think he has a different agenda that's going to
serve him. And I think he's doing all these takeovers
in Chicago, La, all these places that didn't need it.
I think he's doing it because he's up to something
and it's distracting us.
Speaker 5 (02:57):
Probably just another Epstein distraction. There's got to be something there, right,
I mean, why is he pushing to hide it? You know?
The whole thing is he kind of said it, you
know when he was running that he was going to
release the files, and then he brought in all these
conspiracy theories who were pushing it, who made names for
himself on it, So you know, he brought it on himself.
Speaker 6 (03:15):
Right, always ties back to Atstein one way, But the
President campaigned on a lot of things like making Ground
Zero and the World Trade Center a national monument.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
He campaigned on that lowry. He stated this plan all along.
Speaker 5 (03:34):
I passed by down there and all the time. So
whenever there, I'm just, you know, stop and just give
a moment.
Speaker 6 (03:40):
Do you think it needs any help being kept up
by the federal.
Speaker 5 (03:43):
Government, No, not at all. I think New York's done
a great job with it.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
It's a distinctly horrible tragedy that happened to hear, and
I think it's something that we as New Yorkers deal with,
not him. I know he's from here, but a long
time ago he betrayed us, so I don't understand Nabor.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Now this week is nine to eleven, and the President
is not expected to attend the memorial in Manhattan, but
will instead go to a service at the Pentagon. He's
actually said to come to New York later that day
to watch a Yankees game. So Larry a lot going on.
I know, I'm sure you were surprised when I gave
some figures about how much the CEO at the nonprofit
(04:22):
museum for nine to eleven makes, But that's what I
write in this in this really bombshell of a report
from the New York Post. I think it came out
a month ago.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
That's obscene. It is absolutely obscene. And the person that
said that it was Rudy Giuliani who claimed the heir
was safe. I worked with the nine to eleven first
responders for a long time, traveling with John Field going
down to Washington. It's not usually Juliani if he gets
the blame for that, it's Christy Todd Whitman, who was
head of the EPA at the time. Do you remember that,
(04:53):
She's the one that came out. And I think that
we haven't heard from her since then because she was
so wrong about that at the time. But that was
the first time I heard Juliani's name. But I mean,
if you talk to John Feel, you talk to the
first responders, they can't stand Christy Todd Whitman because she
came out and said, oh, don't worry about it. They
are as safe to breathe. And of course now we're
(05:13):
still dealing with first responders who are suffering and dying
because of that. You know, I'll tell you what, it's
a great story. It's a great story because it does
show how New Yorkers feel about it, and they should
have the final call and the nine to eleven families
should have the final call on this. Thanks so much,
Natalie Migliorio will be back tomorrow morning at eight point
