Speaker 1 (00:00):
This hour of programming on seven to ten doubr He's
sponsored by Toyota City and Mamaranac and Nissan City of
port Chester, proud members of the Integrity Automotive Group. Now
former Westchester County Executive Rob Astrio on seven ten.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Yeah, I love it. I love it Massapequa the Chiefs,
I love it. I love the fact that Donald Trump
early on when he first started, basically ordered his Education
Secretary Linda McMahon to not put up with this kind
(00:46):
of crap from states like New York, which passed. It
wasn't even a law. It was through the Education Department
that told schools in New York you cannot have certain
anything basically related to Indians. So Indians has to go,
(01:07):
The chiefs have to go. Those kind of names, and
you know, these are schools that have had these nicknames forever.
Nobody ever complained about them except white liberals who have
nothing else to do in New York.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
So this is the fight that they pick.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
And you know, I'm glad there's a school like Massapequa
where they're the chiefs and the community totally rallied around
their their mascot, which is not denigrating, it's actually they're
they're paying homage to the Native Americans. So I mean,
all these schools and communities in New York that have
(01:51):
honored Native American Indians, they're being pushed aside by these
stupid liberals who are just they're like busybodies. They don't
know what to do with themselves. So I'm glad they
picked the fight with a good old Massapequo and they
ain't putting up with nutting out there, which is great.
(02:13):
So Linda McMahon shows up the other day yesterday, I
think it was, and basically said, screw you, New York.
We're gonna sit here and defend the Massapequas of the
world and other schools to choose, you know, by their
local community, the mascot of their choice. And there's nothing
inherently wrong with chiefs, you know.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
As somebody else said in I forget who it was.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
It might have been Joe Saladino, my friend who is
a town supervisor in Long Island. He said, if I'm
not mistaken, like there's a chief of staff for the
governor and we have you know, the word chief is
used all over the place, but it's not being allowed
to use as a mascot. So anyway, I you know,
(03:02):
I'm so glad they're pushing back, and maybe it seems
like a little thing to people, but it's it's that hole.
Stop shoving us around, like stay in your lane. We've
got such big issues to deal with in a country
that is teetering, you know. I mean, thank god Trump
won because he's able to pick these fights and put
(03:25):
his back on the right track. And these fights are
worth it, by the way, because little by little they
take the inch, and they take the foot, and they
take the yard, they take the mile, and you don't.
By the time it's over with, we're done. So finally
we're pushing back, and I'm glad. I'm glad Massapequa the
school District is not laying down. I'm glad that Linda
(03:48):
McMahon showed up. And it's it's funny because these Native
American groups, they're not the ones complaining about this. They're
not they feel honored. It's these freaking liberals that have
nothing else to do. So anyway, I'm glad you put
a spotlight on this. I'm happy, and I hope they
(04:11):
prevail because the federal government under Trump right now might
file a civil rights lawsuit. Now I don't exactly get
where the civil rights comes in, but if it works,
it works, and they're going to go to the federal
district courts, which would probably give you a better shot
than these state courts, all of whom these judges have
been appointed by Cuomo and Hogel.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
So forget it anyway.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
I just I wanted to start with that because that
just happened yesterday, and it happened in an area of ours,
and it's important. So a couple things, and then I
want to tell you about you know, I've been spending
time in airports the last couple of months. I just
got back from DC the other day. I was down.
I was in the White House in the West Wing,
(04:58):
which is very cool, and I'll expec what most people
don't really see because you see the Oval Office and
you think the White House it's a great place, but
it's kind of like a museum, and the West Wing
is where the work actually gets done.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
That's where the offices are.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
But spending a lot of time flying, you know, when
I was in Rome and going back and in Spain
and just all this stuff and the differences between their
airports and hours.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
It's just NonStop.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
But before I get into that, I just want to
talk about this case yesterday that the Supreme Court ruled,
thankfully seven to two. So Alena Kagan, one of the liberals,
joined with the other six conservatives because she finally, at
least on this one, was brave enough to show common sense.
(05:46):
The other two, I mean just completely showed how blindly
leftists and progressive they are. I mean they're Soda Mayor
and Katanji Jackson. They see one thing. They see the
Democratic Party and what they have to do. They don't
(06:09):
see the Constitution. They don't answer to the Constitution. They
don't feel like the Constitution is above what the policy
of the progressive left is. This was such an easy one,
that could have been nine to nothing, and yet you
had the two holdouts.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
This was the temporary legal status.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
So Biden waves in over a half a million folks
from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela under this temporary Let's
start with that first word, temporary legal status. So it's basically, okay,
you're in an area of the world where it's unsafe,
(06:49):
So under a temporary period of time, we're gonna let
you come into the United States. As sort of a
safe harbor. Okay, we're gonna take you out of the storm.
We're gonna protect you for a little while, but you're
going back home. Okay, this is not permanent, Otherwise it
would be the permanent legal status program. So unfortunately, we've
(07:11):
got two justices that don't know the difference or definition
of the word temporary. So when Joe Biden waved his
hand and said, Okay, half a million people under this
particular program, we're not even talking about the parole program,
which is another scam, or the asylum program, which is
another scam in how they got everyone to come in
(07:33):
here that they wanted literally literally over ten million people.
But this temporary legal status is just that. And so
as Biden signs an executive order and allows them to
come in under this program, Trump gets in and says,
you know what, by the authority vested in me as
(07:53):
the executive, I am undoing the policy of the previous
executive and I'm sending them back. So there is a
very easy thing to remember about government and law and policy.
Basically it boils out of this what's done by legislation
(08:16):
must be undone by legislation, which is why Trump in
some of these cuts to government, or some of these
like the Education Department, He unilaterally can't abolish it because
it was created in seventy nine by Congress, So Congress
must abolish it, and he acknowledges that. But there's things
(08:38):
within the Education Department, how it functions, policies within that
the executive controls, and he's getting stopped on that. But
getting to what is done by legislation can be undone
by legislation, it is the exact same that what is
done by executive order can be undone by executive order.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
Period.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
No president can bind the next president, No Congress can
bind the next president. It could be undone, unbound by
either legislation or the pen, which is what Biden used.
So these two buffoons, these two progressive buffoons, Katanji Jackson
(09:28):
and Soda Mayor, they had the ridiculous opinion that since
Joe Biden permitted five hundred and thirty thousand foreigners non
citizens to come in under this temporary maximum eighteen months day,
(09:48):
by the way, temporary program, that Donald Trump has no
authority to undo it unless get this, unless each and
every single person has a right to challenge the deportation order.
So five hundred and thirty thousand separate cases of deportation
(10:13):
must be done in the courts, which of course will
take much longer than eighteen months, must be done in
order for Donald Trump to reverse what Joe Biden, Well, actually,
what not Joe Biden, he didn't even know he did it,
what somebody with the auto pen did for him. Okay,
that is the idiocy that is being used and used
(10:35):
all over the judiciary right now, by these lower courts,
but two Supreme Court justices who should know better, who
should be above politics, and who is here to fix
what is broken on the lower level. And is the
job of a judge, by the way, these black Robe resistance,
it is the job of the judge to determine whether
(10:59):
it is within the law or not, not to make policy,
not to set policy, not to order certain appropriations, not
to have consent degrees that they the judiciary, now take over.
Like what's happening in Rikers. By the way, you could
say Rikers as a hellhole, and it probably is, but
(11:21):
that is the mayor of New York, whoever the hell
it is. It started under de Blasio and now Adams
has this. It's going to be the next one, probably Cuomo,
but whomever. It is the authority of the executive branch
to run that department, not the judge. And this is
what's happening everywhere. So you had these two idiots on
(11:43):
the Supreme Court blindly go with the left and not
allow the president of the United States to undo with
the previous president. I mean, this is what he's up against. Unfortunately,
but hopefully and thankfully the Supreme Court at least on
this one said stop, no, no, no, no no. The
president has the absolute authority to undo what the previous
(12:05):
president did by an executive order. This is not an
act of Congress. I mean, it's like the base, most
basic thing in the world. And this is what the
left on the judges on the bench did. Oh, it's
it's not right, it's not it's so mean what they
just did to the to five hundred and thirty thousand
people's aff fricking mean, it's the law. You're not supposed
(12:30):
to be going by emotion. You're supposed to be going
by the law. And we've got Supreme Court justices that
they don't understand that anyway. That that was a big
win for Trump yesterday, and maybe that sets the tone
on the rest of this stuff that will hopefully prevail.
As these all these cases, whether it's Harvard, whatever, immigration,
(12:55):
that are the auspices of the executive branch. Hopefully the
courts will be told by the Supreme Court to stay
in your damn lane. And the executive whether you like
it or not, is judged by the people who voted
him or her in or out.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
It is he is responsible to the people, not to you.
We'll see.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
So I was in the West Wing the other day
on Wednesday and Thursday, visiting a bunch of friends in
the in the administration, and I was hoping to see
our PRESIDENTE. But he was in the building, but he
was in national security meetings, so I didn't get a
chance to see him this time. And you know, it
(13:42):
was interesting. I always thought, and I was told that
when the President is in the building in the White House,
that the flag on top of the White House is
on display. When he's not, it's not. And I'm like,
that doesn't seem to make sense to me. That's the
U flag on top of that building should always be up.
(14:03):
So I actually asked somebody in the White House, one
of these Secret Service agents. They said no, people think that,
but that's not true.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
He goes.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
The one way that people can tell whether the President
of the United States is actually in the White House,
and most people don't know this is if the Marines
are posted at the North Portico, then the President of
the United States is inside the building. If they're not,
then he's not in the building. I thought that was
pretty interesting. So the thing about the White House is
(14:32):
the West Wing. It's not what you would imagine. I
mean the Oval Office, which I've thankfully have been very
fortunate to be able to be in several times, but
the actual West Wing where they work. When you come
in off State Street, that's the street between the Executive
Office Building, the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, and the White House.
(14:55):
That street is obviously all blocked off. It's where the
motorcade is when he's there. The beast right outside the door,
and there's an awning that you go into if you
have the badge and you've gone through the security and
you go in and you're in the West Wing. But
it's pretty low. I mean, it's it's kind of cramped,
it's low ceilings, it's narrow, and just when you get
(15:18):
in there, just to the right is the door.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
For the UH what you'll call it the UH? What's
the building? What's the room called? I'm drawing it quickly. No,
not the oval office. It's the UH where they all
gather the security.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
No not got oh, I can't believe I'm drawing a
blank And I will get to it anyway. You keep
going and when you walk through, you you go up
and downstairs, and you actually go upstairs to go to
the Oval office.
Speaker 3 (15:50):
But there's there's these little rooms.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
A lot of these rooms are very kind of cramped
because there's not a lot of space there. And I
so I was meeting with a friend of mine and
I said, all right, this is crazy, But somebody gave
me a letter, an elected official that wanted to get
something to Elon Musk. I said, is there any way
that I could get this to somebody that could get
(16:14):
it to him? So he laughed, He goes his office
is right there across the hall, and he's here all
the time, and he sits there at his desk.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
Why don't you just put it on his desk?
Speaker 2 (16:27):
So I literally walked in where Elon Musk sits and
I just plopped it on his desk. Now, the next
day it was announced he wasn't gonna be there anymore.
So I don't know if you picked it up when
he was there yesterday or not, but you would imagine
Musk would have this like Grant. No, it's got like
a closet. It's like ten by ten, a dark black
desk and chair. It was kind of empty, but I
(16:48):
was like, the most literally the richest man on earth
has like a ten by ten closet, which is the
most valuable office space in the world.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
Anyone that works in the West Wing knows that.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
And this is what Elon Musk gets.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
Before I take a break, and we're gonna take a break.
I so the TSA.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
I want to talk about the TSA when I come back,
because I've been flying a lot, and I mean, are
these the most useless federal government employees we have? I mean,
there's plenty of useless federal workers. But when you go
into the airport, do you feel safe when you see
these guys in these light blue shirts with a badge
(17:32):
on and their TSA agents, you really think that they're
gonna stop? And by the way, there's been plenty of
surveys and undercover security checks done by the government itself
and security companies over ninety percent of what would be
considered dangerous in other words, a potential bomb or a weapon,
(17:57):
drugs over ninety percent. Get ninety percent, You think about
that ninety percent? So are they doing their jobs? Why
are they even there? I don't even know. And we've
got this whole thing about TSA with a pre check.
So I want to tell you about this for a
second when I come back, because it is a scam.
(18:18):
It is a total and absolute scam. It's a money maker.
It is ridiculous, and I would love to get your
thoughts on that in a minute, because the whole thing
should be scrapped. And I hope Trump or somebody has
the balls to do it, because when you fly in Europe,
you don't go, you don't take off your belt and
your shoes. You don't do that. Nobody does it because
(18:39):
they're like, it's stupid, and we've been doing it for
twenty five years here because one in Bacil had a
little bit of C four in his shoe which never
went off and everything but that because of that, we
go through all this other rigm roll one in hundred
three two one zero seven ten one in hundred three
(18:59):
to two one one zero seven ten.

(23:03):
Benjamin Steakhouse a cut above the rest. I'll get to
your calls in just a second. One eight hundred three
two one zero seven ten. One eight hundred three two
one zero seven ten Rob Astreno here on the Rob
ast Reno Show. I got to see Tom Holman at
the White House when actually I was I was leaving
(23:26):
and he was coming in, so we had a chance
to talk. I mean, this guy is like no nonsense,
no nonsense.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
And I told him that.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
You know, when I was County Executive, I actually we
were ahead of the curve and I vetoed in twenty
seventeen where the Democrats on the County Board at the
time passed a sanctuary bill making Westchester a sanctuary county,
and I vetoed it and it was upheld. The veto
so stopped it. Of course, once I left office in
twenty eighteen, my successor, George Latimer, immediately it became a
(24:00):
sanctuary community. And Homean and Homeland Security. They're going after
now all these jurisdictions, and they've labeled specifically in you know,
across the country, but here in New York and New Jersey.
They called out the counties and cities and the state
if they've self identified or they have policies that shield
(24:21):
illegal immigrants, and they're gonna threaten to take away money.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
I'm glad.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
I mean Westchester unfortunately still is. But they erroneously listed
Putnam County. I know, County Executive Kevin Byrne like called
me like whoa, whoa, Well, how do you help me
get get rid of this? So Putnam is not Orange
Counties listed? I don't know if that is too. Steve Newhouse,
the county executive, I can't imagine they becoming a sanctuary,
but who knows. Anyway, Let me get back to TSA
(24:50):
for second. So these these pre checks, you can get right,
it's seventy eight bucks for five years for tsa pre check,
which now everyone is getting, so the lines a PreCheck
are getting longer. But this allows you to not have
to take off your belt, your jacket, or your shoes.
So you're telling me, somebody who does a pre check,
(25:10):
spends seventy eight bucks, passes a background check, will never
ever ever do anything bad. Well, it could never possibly
be a terrorist. And so if it were so important
that these shoes had to be said because such a
security risk, why would we have TSA PreCheck that allows
(25:34):
you to skip the line and not have to take
your shoes off or anything else.
Speaker 3 (25:38):
Because it's a joke. It's a total joke.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
And this is something that they know. I've talked to them.
They know what the study show. They know it's ridiculous.
They admit that because if you're over sixty five, you
don't have to take off your shoes. If you're under twelve,
you don't have to. So there's no sixty five year
old ever or a seventy year old that could possibly
want to blow something up with a shoe.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
It's ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
So the other day I'm in Washington and Reagan National
coming home, and I had just a backpack and I
got a gift from the ambassador from iSER By Jehan.
Believe it or not, I've become friends with I actually
went to the embassy, had tea with him and iSER
By Johnny pastries which were delicious. But he was so
(26:25):
nice to me that he gave me a tie which
I'll wear one day on the air. And he gave
me tea which was really good. But it was a canister.
So I take this and I put it in my backpack.
It was by an iHeart backpack, by the way, and
I put it through TSA, you know, into.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
The conveyor belt thing.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
And I get there and I walked right through because
I have the pre check, and so the TSA agent.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
Puts it aside.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
So now I'm waiting and I'm waiting and my backpack
is sitting there, and I see five lazy ass TSA
agents just walking around, sitting there, bsing with each other.
They all see the bag. Nobody does a thing Like
I don't have a flight to freaking catch. I just
got all day to stand there waiting for somebody to
(27:21):
go search my bag when I know there's nothing in it.
Speaker 3 (27:24):
So anyway.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
You can't go crazy on them because if you do,
they control everything. They could sit there, they could arrest you.
They could say, okay, I'm going to take out everything,
take out your dirty underwear, show everybody. I could pat
you down and grope you. I could say. They could
do whatever the hell they want.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
So you got to.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Put on a face, just be nice and hope that
they get to their sweet ass time to get to
do their job. And they sat there for fifteen minutes
waiting for somebody, and finally, finally, I guess they done
bsing about whatever they were watching on Netflix to finally
they took my bag and they went through it and
(28:07):
they took out the tea and I'm like, that's tea.
And she did a little swab and that was that.
But it's like, do you really feel said, I mean, seriously,
come on, this is one of those things where government
doesn't budge because it just is what it is. They
do what they do. But there's got to be a
better way. There's got to be a better way. Some
(28:28):
of these CSA agents, by the way, are hourly. I
don't know if you know that, but they're making like twenty
dollars an hour, and those that are on salary are
making like fifty or sixty. I mean, so you're not
dealing with like high level security guys. You're dealing with
like school security.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Guards or something. And that's not the way.
Speaker 6 (28:48):
You know.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
I'm not taking away from people who do that. I'm
just saying if this was so important, and school security guards,
by the way, should be important. But you know what
I'm talking Oh, you're talking about the guys in like
these yellow jackets. It's at these events, Okay, what are
they going to do? Or in a building that are
half asleep when you go there. One one hundred and
three two, one zero seven ten. Let me get to
(29:10):
some callers, like you know what, I'm going to start
with an out of state here, Walter from Wisconsin.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
How are you? Walter? Walter? Is he gone?
Speaker 2 (29:24):
I would love to talk to somebody from Milwaukee. All right,
Kevin in Long Beach, how are you?
Speaker 3 (29:29):
Kevin?
Speaker 7 (29:32):
I was unfortunately homeless for a couple of years, and
I was in a shelter at Master Peak Weak and
I got to tell you to get out of that
hell hole. I'd go to the local games, you know,
hot baseball, football. Then the team spirit in that town
is unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
Yes it is.
Speaker 7 (29:48):
I've never seen anything like it. And the whole town
is bestcooned with team colors and everything. You know, it's
just a shame that New York has to plunge your
heart in their team spirit.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
Yep, hey, Kevin, I'm glad you're I'll hope you're back
on your feet, and thank you for calling.
Speaker 3 (30:03):
I appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
One hundred three two one zero seventy ten. One hundred
and three two one zero seven ten.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
Are you know what? It's George from Milwaukee?
Speaker 2 (30:12):
Sorry George, how are you?
Speaker 5 (30:16):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (30:16):
Hi?
Speaker 6 (30:17):
Rob? Great show. They're right about the TSA. It's almost
as if they just hire them right off the street.
It's ridiculous. They really have no security background. They just
hire them and they're just they're based only the security guards,
and they don't do their job. They are lazy. They
linger around, they're on their cell phone. They'll go out
(30:38):
in the terminal to have a cigarette. They couldn't care less.
And I've heard some of them as i've been in there.
Oh I'm the boss here, I'm the boy, talks like
that's the customers, you know, And it's more just a
hiring system, not a merriage system where people should be
really trained at that, but you would need as many
if they were really trained. And it's just more quota
(31:00):
system that we use in this country over the merit system,
and it's really now kicking in full and you're going
to feel the full effects of it. Everywhere you go.
There are people in human resources who run their own
affirmative action quota system. So even if the courts get
rid of it bingo, like in Texas they run a scam,
they still have quotas there for colleges. What they do
(31:21):
is they just take individual high schools and the top
people in the high school get into the Texas college system.
Speaker 5 (31:26):
No, no, no, it's.
Speaker 6 (31:27):
Supposed to be the top kids in the state. So
there's all scams ran on it. It's not going to
go away because the left wing is taken over. And
you know something, Chris from Bell bet Pages is.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
Really all right, George, thank you? Who Bruce did you
want me to go to?
Speaker 2 (31:45):
I'm sorry, all right, yeah, Sondra Okay, Sondra from New Jersey.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
Hi, Sondra, I'm good answer.
Speaker 9 (31:55):
In that, brub I want to answer your question about
being say on a plane, I lost my cousin Jerry
on the panance light. O, my god, and yeah, it
was very sad and I and as I learned about
another family member he lost his daughter. He was a
doctor and he lost his daughter. And about a year
(32:16):
or so later, he decided to test to see how
careful they are checking things. So he made some kind
of radio. Of course he was stable because he was
a good man, but he was able to put that
thing through and it went through, and he was able
to go on the plane with this thing, which proves
that they're not really careful. So I feel that, you know,
(32:42):
go up with the drugs because I think if someone's
going to be bad somehow, someway, they're going to get
away with it.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
I hate to say it, but question yeah, no question
about it. Sundra, thank you for the call.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
You know. I look the whole liquid thing too. I mean, honestly,
I have taken big bottles of listerine in my bag
and I can't tell you almost nine out of ten times.
Speaker 3 (33:08):
It gets through.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
Yeah, it's not a three ounce thing in it wrapped
in a zip block, and I try to be good
about that, but it's just it is kind of the
luck of the draw or who's paying attention, and it's
just like it's random. It's totally random, and maybe they're
just like, all right, forget led it through one three, two,
(33:31):
one zero seven ten, Rob Estarino Here, let's go to
Ted in Paramester, Jersey.
Speaker 5 (33:37):
Hi, Ted, Hey, Rob, how you doing?
Speaker 10 (33:41):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (33:43):
You're a guy that knows something about the New York
area airports. The port Authority at Noyork we have reduced
flight volume due to the you know, due to the
strain on the traffic system. Yeah, well, support authority owns
(34:05):
the airport in Newburgh, Right, Why can't ups, sed X
and DHL be sent up there?
Speaker 3 (34:17):
Good question?
Speaker 2 (34:17):
Probably because I mean they have slots right now at
Newark and they've paid for those slots. I don't know
what their contracts are for that period of time, but yeah,
I mean a Newark would be what would benefit if
they sent them up to Stuart and help alleviate the
traffic it's opposed to. I mean, that's what Stuart was
(34:37):
always trying to do. Add some international flights. They've got
a few even Westchester too. You know, you can fly
to many places. But I just saw today, I just
saw now there was a two year old on a
conveyor belt at Newark. The police just were able to
rescue this kid went through the conveyor belt, through everything
(34:59):
in the back and lucky this kid is okay. God,
But honestly, I'm telling you, when when I fly through Europe,
it's just totally different experience.
Speaker 3 (35:11):
I mean, you don't take.
Speaker 2 (35:12):
Off your jackets, you do not take off your shoes,
you do not take off your belts.
Speaker 6 (35:17):
It is.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
It does seem a lot more professional, like actual law
enforcement or actual security than what we have here. One
eight hundred and three two one zero seven to ten.
Jim in Manhattan, Hey.
Speaker 10 (35:31):
Jim, Hello, how you doing today?
Speaker 3 (35:34):
Good?
Speaker 10 (35:36):
Can you hear me?
Speaker 3 (35:37):
I can hear you? I said, Hi, Jim, go ahead, Okay.
Speaker 10 (35:40):
You know, in many public opinion polls of American Indians,
the Indians say they're not offended by the name Washington Redskins.
A couple of years ago, the liberal Washington posted a
poll of Indians. Eighty percent say they're not offended. Eighty
percent eight zero not offended by the name Redskins. I
agree with you. This is an issue and only stick
(36:00):
white man's burden Liberals, not for the American Indian.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
Yeah, totally. There's no there's no question about that. I'm
telling you. It's all the jentas they're sitting around saying.
Speaker 2 (36:10):
Oh my god, what can we do? What can what
do you want to do today?
Speaker 3 (36:13):
What should we do today?
Speaker 2 (36:15):
It's it's all these rich people, these rich white people
that have literally I don't think they have anything better
to do.
Speaker 3 (36:21):
Who can be offended this week? What you know?
Speaker 2 (36:23):
It's just that's a whole like the LATINX thing, latin
X whatever that I don't even no, no Hispanic or
Latino calls themselves LATINX. Nobody does that except these stupid
professors and the elites, and the media feels like they
(36:44):
have to do it. This is like a it's so silly, uh,
Jerry and knew Brunswick, How are you, Jerry?
Speaker 3 (36:54):
A lot of Jersey today? Go ahead, Jerry?
Speaker 8 (36:56):
Yes, Rob. You know, I think Conservatives and republic because
they're doing a really terrible job in attacking this climate
cult because there's not enough money on the face of
the earth to support the programs these people would want
to do. So we have to start coming out and
saying the obvious to me, the obvious. There is no
(37:20):
climate emergency. There is no climate crisis. Global warming is.
This is global warming we have now is perfectly natural.
We should be telling them that no one can change
the climate. Nobody on the face of the Earth can
change the climate. It's not in the humid you know, wheelhouse.
(37:42):
We just can't do it one way or the other.
But we don't do that. You know, we talk about pipelines,
which is great, don't get me wrong. But then the
next idiot comes in and goes back to these crazy programs,
and they are crazy.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
You know.
Speaker 8 (37:57):
CO two does not control climate change. It does not
control the temperature of the Earth. I mean to somewhat
because it's a greenhouse. Gass and pollution has nothing to
do with climate change.
Speaker 2 (38:14):
Yeah, I mean, I gotta get them off. No, you
got to ask them what they want to talk about.
Stephen Orchelle.
Speaker 3 (38:25):
You're on the Rob Astarino Show. Hey, Steve, Yeah, Rob,
thank you.
Speaker 11 (38:29):
For taking the call. I'd like to talk about global
warming and our borders, but I think it's more important
to try to save New York Rochester County. And I've
worked with you. I worked when you were in office,
and I went to some of those town hall meetings
that I think you bravely sponsored or participated in, only
(38:50):
to be drowned out by the crazies from the other side.
We're seeing the same thing with poor Congressman Waller. What
can we do to muster the troops? What good office holders?
And possibly went back a little part of the state.
Speaker 3 (39:04):
Well, thank you, Steve.
Speaker 2 (39:05):
Yeah, I mean, look, yeah, I went through all these
town hall meetings where the nuts just come out and
they just go crazy on anything and everything. Nothing has
to do with you know, local or what the actual
issues are. But I mean, if Republicans don't get off
the couch and fight back, if you stay silent, we're
gonna we're gonna lose. You gotta we have to expose
these people for what they are. And that's part of
(39:27):
what this show is. And I always appreciate when people
call in because I want your voice to be heard.
You know, this is an outlet for other people. I
can't tell you how many people listen to this show
and tell me all the time. And when I do
tell them, you know, call in or you know, feel free,
and they're like, and I know people don't like to
talk on the radio or whatever, and they just prefer
(39:48):
to listen and that's fine, and it's kind of what
we're doing. But you can always call in and I
want your voice to be heard kind of like you
stay on topic. But that's okay, uh okay, I gotta
I got a couple plenty of other things to get to,
but I want to mention my friends at Premiere Comfort

Speaker 3 (42:49):
Go ahead, Ursula. Where are you from Westchester? Yes, we're
uh okay, go ahead, Rob.
Speaker 12 (43:01):
I have a question and I thought you might have
the answer to it. Uh CBO score And I know
this is off topic, and I apologize.
Speaker 3 (43:10):
Congressional Budget Office, go ahead.
Speaker 12 (43:12):
Yes, are those who make up that score just looking
at the numbers and not perceiving what will happen in
the future.
Speaker 2 (43:23):
They're trying to project and they're always wrong, and they
are always uh to the left. I mean, it's tough
with with progressive so they always miscalculate for Republicans and
of course underestimate issues for Democrats. It's just that that's
the se They shouldn't even use the CBO. I don't
even know why Congress or the White House why they
(43:45):
even use that's it's phony phony group.
Speaker 3 (43:47):
Peter and staten Island real quick? How are you hey?
Speaker 10 (43:51):
How are you doing wrong?
Speaker 3 (43:52):
Good?
Speaker 6 (43:53):
Rob?
Speaker 8 (43:54):
I got two questions.
Speaker 13 (43:55):
Is anybody ever going to investigate the billion dollars that
the Blase air on his game?
Speaker 3 (44:01):
Not anymore?
Speaker 6 (44:02):
No, they won't, never will, Okay?
Speaker 13 (44:05):
And does anybody know that Como who's running for maya
he's one of the first guys that got the license
upstate for grow operation marijuana when he was totally against it,
which was you know, he was against it for the
last twenty years, but then I guess he found it
lucrative in his own pocket.
Speaker 2 (44:24):
Well, I mean he I don't know if he has that,
but I can tell you he's he's for something and
against something usually at the same time, and whatever is
convenient for him. I mean, he's flipped on everything. He's
doing it again now to run for mayor. He's completely
bending over for the unions and everybody else. I mean,
he's just he's such a chameleon and and he's getting
(44:46):
a run for his money. By this guy Zamdami, who
is frightening. This guy should scare the crap out of
every normal person, Democrat, Republican, business person. This guy's catching
fire at the right time, which is scare Cuomo, I
know for a fact, because the safe incumbent like Cuomo
(45:06):
basically is even though he's not the mayor, but you know,
people think he is. This guy Zamdami is he's got
momentum and money and with like three weeks to go,
that's scary. Speaking of like, so the New York City
Campaign Finance Board, you can't make this up.
Speaker 3 (45:27):
Such typical workers right in the government.
Speaker 2 (45:30):
They sent out these voter information guides, three and a
half million of them this month. The problem is they
were full of errors everywhere. They had all the wrong
candidates listed for the primary. They put Eric Adams as
a Democrat twice running in the primary.
Speaker 3 (45:45):
He's not.
Speaker 2 (45:46):
He's an independent, so he's going to be in the
general election. They they had this in ninety six different editions,
fourteen different languages, and they had these candidates who were
not candidates, and they had the wrong date for the primary.
But other than that, they were really spot on. They
really did their job well and They also took out
(46:08):
an ad at City Field for four days saying make
sure you vote in the primary on June twenty third.
Primary is June twenty fourth. Good job, good job by
the nice good bureaucrats of the New York City Campaign
Finance Board. Excellent, very scary. This should scare everybody because
this is where the left is. They hate religion, hate it.
(46:32):
And so in the state of Washington, the legislature and
then signed by the Governor Bob Ferguson, who of course
is a Democrat and a Catholic by the way, the
state of Washington now signed legislation that would directly target
Catholic priests label them as superiors. Because they did that,
(46:56):
forcing priests to have to report when they hear in
the confession as a confession in the confessional box, when
they hear somebody or something about child abuse, and they
would have to break the confessional and report that individual
to the authorities. Now that is contrary to basically law,
(47:18):
that clearly is contrary to the Catholic Church. So now
these priests and the Catholic Bishops Association Washington filed the
federal lawsuit and they should win this. In a second
and if they don't, then you know, again the far
left judges should be thrown off the bench for that.
I mean, this is retaliation. It is absolute religious discrimination.
(47:41):
So basically they excluded everybody else, though they excluded nurses
and therapists and everybody else from this specifically targeted priests.
And the priests who don't do this who because if
the priest, it is I mean, this is like sacrosanct. Seriously,
if a priest ever says anything, reveals what they heard
(48:03):
in a confession about somebody, automatically they are excommunicated.
Speaker 3 (48:08):
That's how serious it is. So they never do.
Speaker 2 (48:11):
And so if they if they don't comply with this law,
they will not only be fine, but they'll be thrown
in jail five thousand dollars fine, and they could be
thrown in jail for a year. These sickos, these sicko leftists,
they are a cancer in this country and they have
to be stopped. That's why this Zamdami is a socialist
(48:33):
at very frightening and dangerous. He has to be stopped.
He is outright dangerous.
Speaker 3 (48:42):
All right.
Speaker 2 (48:43):
I didn't even get to saw again, I didn't. I
got it to Bruce remind me to tell me for
next week, remind me to tell you about my bunny
and my squirrel. Yes, okay, seriously, seriously, all right, I
am out of here. Thanks to Lero's Point to Point
