Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is seven or boy, the Mark Simoon Show starts now.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Well, first, the snow of the year. Not here Manhattan,
wouldn't dare snow here looks very nice out actually cloudy
but dry. But around the Tri State area you'll see
some snow here and there, and upstate, you know those
crazy people that live way up there. Way. I shouldn't
say that. We have people listening up there, but if
you live in Buffalo, I don't know how the hell
you do it with that two feet of snow every
(00:29):
two seconds. A lot to get to today. We'll get
to Kombi and Tis James, We'll get to Matt Lower,
We'll get to we'll get to the casinos. We'll get
to a plenty to talk about today. You're in a
very strange era. We've never seen anything like this before.
Been going on for ten years. It gets worse and
(00:51):
worse and worse. And it all started with Donald Trump
coming down that escalator, and for whatever reason, the fake
news decided they could just just take the gloves off
and really go after him. You know, the media was
always a little slanted. You go back and you watch
Dan rather years ago. It was slanted. Even our old
friend Walter Cronkite. But slanted meant you use a rougher
(01:16):
adjective when you were talking about the Republican than the Democrat.
It didn't mean you'd out and out just run fake news.
That started with well, actually, give Dan Rather credit. It
actually started with Bush. They made up that whole fake
thing about him going a wall and the National Guard
wasn't true. They made up that whole fake Haliburton scandal
with Dick Cheney. So that was the real beginning of
(01:38):
real fake news. But it was only done then when
they had it to it. You know, once or twice
every year they would come up with a fake news
story and push it. Now it's every day. They've decided,
in their crazy minds spit their trumped arrangement syndrome, that
they're justified in breaking all the rules, throwing away all rules,
(02:00):
all standards. There's no standards anymore. You know, once in
a while you'd get an anonymous source, a deep throat,
but the deep throat was like the number two guy
at the FBI who had access to all the information.
But now the anonymous sources anybody, So you get all
this fake news. You've been reading stories in the New
(02:20):
York Times for the last week about how Trump's health
is in real question. He is showing signs of fatigue,
He's unable to stay awake, he's unable to work, and
none of this is true. It's just total fake nonsense.
So instead of a deep throat source where it's the
number two guy at the FBI, who's right there in
the job, see and everything, what they do is they'll
(02:43):
talk to the New York Times reporter will call somebody
not at the White House, but somebody that was in
the Obama White House or the Biden White House and
obviously hates Trump, and they'll say, are you hearing what
I'm hearing about the fatigue the president not able to
do is job? And then they'll say, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I've heard that. Now it's somebody who has absolutely no
(03:04):
direct knowledge of anything, but it's enough for the New
York Times reporter to put sources. I talk to, my
sources tell me that. So it's total nonsense. They're even
using the worst people in the world, the lowest people
on earth, Michael Wolf, people like that who've been printing
the most fake, false nonsense for years, but in their
(03:31):
crazy hatred of Trump, this deranged hatred of Trump. They
feel they're justified whatever they have to do to get
this guy. So you've seen all the New York Times
stories about how the fatigue is unbelievable. Trump is just
unable to work. It can't work very much. He's just
(03:52):
barely coming into the office. Well, they finally released the
actual White House logs, believe it or not, their logs,
Secret Service logs, white House logs that keep track of
where the president is and what he's doing. Twenty four
to seven. Well, the log show he's been working twelve
hour days in the Oval office, twelve hour days in
the Oval Office, and then when he's out of the
Oval office, if he's in the dining room of the residents,
(04:14):
he's making phone calls, texting. So he's just working NonStop,
day and night. Nobody's no president's ever kept up this
kind of schedule. So the New York Times stuff was
total nonsense. Even this media Heite, which everybody gets a
kick out of reading media Heite, but mediaite is the
most left wing slanted thing in the world. So they've
(04:38):
been started all week. Media It's been talking about how
how fatigued the president is. He can barely show up.
He can barely stay awake. Now, look at the media
Media Height headline from last night. Trump fires off over
one hundred and sixty truth social posts in frenetic late
night blitz. I thought he couldn't stay awake. I thought
(04:58):
he was dozing off. I mean sometimes I start posting
a lot. You know, one night, you have nothing to do,
you're posting tweeting. But have you ever done one hundred
and sixty in one night? From seven pm to nearly midnight?
The President reposted an endless stream of clips. Well, you
got to have a lot of energy to post one
(05:21):
hundred and sixty posts in a few hours. That's pretty
good on his part. So then remember the MRI, this
very suspicious MRI. The President went to Walter Reed for
the annual physical. You know, when you go to Walter
Reed and you're the president, you don't go to the
regular Walter Read hospital. They have a special presidential wing
(05:42):
just for the president. You got like four thousand doctors
standing there waiting to take care of you. So when
you get a physical, if a doctor wants to really
be thorough, I'll send you for a cat scan. He'll
send you for this test just to be sure, just
to be sure. But when it's Walter reed and you
got one hundred doctors standing there with nothing to do
but wait on you, I'll send you for everything. And
a cat scan ye all. At times, if you're older
(06:04):
and they want to check your heart, they'll do that
what do you call it? Echo cardiogram and then check
your arteries to see how your circulation is. You know
they do. You could do a cat scan, but if
you want to really be detailed, see even deeper, you
use an MRI. And that's what they did with the president. Apparently,
Well for two weeks now, the fake news is this MRI.
(06:25):
Why won't he release this MRI? What was in that MRI?
What did it show that he can't release it? Absolutely nothing?
They released it yesterday. Doctors explained that at his age,
he's seventy nine. Hey, also it's the president the United States.
You don't want to make a mistake. This could be
blockage or something that wouldn't show in the cat scan
but would show in the MRI. So they just just
(06:48):
to be safe, just preventative, just to be overly cautious.
They did an MRI. It showed absolutely nothing. They released
it every network has had their doctors look at it.
They said, he's fine, there's absolutely nothing in there. So again,
you're just going to be bombarded every day with fake scandals.
Now what they do is they launch a whole fake
attack on the president. They try it, they push it,
(07:10):
they push it, they push it. Then they democrats, poll it,
focus group it. If it's not working, they drop it.
You will notice that for the last week you have
never heard the name Jeffrey Epstein. You notice for a
week you haven't heard about Jeffrey Epstein. This is all
you heard about day and night from the fake news
for one week, they haven't mentioned them. Why is that, Well,
(07:32):
they focused scripted. It wasn't working, it wasn't registering. Nobody
cared about Jeffrey Epstein. Nobody thought that Donald Trump had
anything to do with Jeffrey Epstein. So you notice had
been no mention of it. They'll try it again, you know,
they always bring these things back and try them again.
So they've been trying this Mark Kelly thing, This awful
guy Mark Kelly, who uh is the one that came out.
(07:53):
If you get an illegal order, you can refuse it.
We'll have your back. If you get an illegal order.
There's no such thing as any illegal orders in the
Trump administration. There's never been a hint of this. Nobody's
ever even suggested there's illegal orders. But if you put
out these videos, it creates this atmosphere there's illegal orders.
It's as if it's as if you put out a
(08:17):
video all over the internet thing. If you've been sexually
assaulted by Mark Kelly, call the police immediately. Now there's
no hint that he's ever done such a thing. I
don't think he's ever done such a thing. Nobody suspects
he's done this. But if all of a sudden, you've
seen videos everywhere, if you've been sexually assaulted by Mark Kelly,
well you'd start to think, maybe there's something wrong with this.
(08:38):
So it's just a whole fake thing, and the fake
news is backing it up. Now they'll do it for
another couple of days, then they'll focus group, are tested.
If it's not registering, they'll get rid of it. And
this Mark Kelly, he's not a great looking guy. He
looks kind of annoying. He's not a very pleasant looking guy.
(08:59):
There was Talkahim as a vice presidential candidate for Kamala
Harris he was on that list, but he doesn't look
the part. Tim Waltz is not exactly George Clooney, but
he's a happy looking guy. He's a fun looking guy.
You look at him, you kind of smile until you
get to know him. But Mark Kelly just looks like
a nasty high school principal type of a guy. He
(09:21):
was an astronaut and he was in the military. Believe
or not, he was on our side, but he was
in the military, so that's good. He was in combat.
That's impressive. And astronaut, that's impressive. Although he doesn't look
like Major Nelson on idriam Ajinie. He doesn't have any
charm to him. Even John Glenn was kind of a
(09:42):
it was a charming nice guy. Not Mark Kelly. But
he loves to bring up that military experience. He goes
after the illegal orders Venezuela Pete Hegzeth. They blew up
a drug cartel boat filled with drugs and then they
fired a second shot that killed VORs who were getting
off the boat. This is Kelly's big thing.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
And you know somebody who has sunk two ships myself
that folks in the military.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
That's that's like John Kerry used to do that. You know,
when all these people are on the panel debating a
military thing, what do they know. They're TV anchors, they're
talking heads. But when you can say, hey, when I
shot down a plane, when I did so, it's supposed
to impress you.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
You know, somebody who has sunk two ships?
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Myself that uh, okay, it's good. I never sunk a ship,
but so that's pretty impressive. But it's somebody who has
sunk two ships. You know, if you were in the
war for all that time, it's not You're not exactly
General Patton. You're not exactly one of the great heroes
of our military who sunk two hundred ships. I sunk
(10:50):
two ships. It's more that's more like kind of Michael's
Navy kind of stuff.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
But okay, folks in the military need to understand, you know,
the law to see the Geneva Conventions. If there were,
in fact, as reported, you know, survivors clinging to a
damaged vessel, that that could be you know, over a line.
I hope it's not the case.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
He hopes, He really hopes it's not the case. This
guy is praying every night it's the case. He would
do anything for it to be. Now, the problem is
they're going to keep pushing this story about they blew up. Now,
first of all, everybody, normal people, like if there's a
drug cartel ship filled with fentanyl that it got blown up.
You ever watched Breaking Bad, the awful cartel people, those
(11:38):
disgusting people. You just wish a bomb would hit them
and kill them all, get rid of this cartel. But
that's what the president is doing, blowing up the cartel,
their ships, their drugs, the people in the cartel, just
blowing them up one by one. Remember, every time you
hit the ship, it's not just that you killed these people.
That ship probably had enough drugs on it, fentanyl, you know,
(11:59):
all that stuff probably worth fifty sixty seventy million dollars.
You're doing incredible economic damage every time you blow up
the ship. Now, when you blow up the ship, I
would assume if you got the okay to fly over
the ship, drop bombs and blow it up, it's assumed
you're killing everybody on the ship. If that's a little
(12:22):
ship and you've got these big aircraft dropping massive bombs.
You've seen the video right where they just blow the
whole thing out of the water. You could pretty much
assume you're gonna kill everybody on that ship. So I
think this is the problem they're going to have as
they try to push this story on people. Most people
like me are gonna say, well, the reason they were
there is to blow up the ship and kill everybody.
(12:43):
What's the difference if they fired a second shot. I
mean when they hit those Iran nuclear reactors, if you watch,
it wasn't one shot. They just kept bombing them for
like twenty minutes, just kept dropping bombs. You want to
make sure you got everything. So if you're there to
blow up the ship and kill everybody, I don't know,
what's the horrible thing that you fired a second shot?
(13:05):
Well you might have killed survivors. Well, they're not the
it's not the professor in Marianne that you're blowing up.
It's I mean, these are drug cartel guys. You're there
to kill them all. You're there to blow up the
ship and kill them all. If you got to fire
a second shot. All right. So they'll push this for
another week, they'll focus group a tested. If it's not
working out, they'll they'll drop it real fast. Hey, the
(13:28):
casinos got approved yesterday. There were three final casino bids,
and the casino board surprised people. They approved all three casinos.
Now when you hear casino, it sounds okay, but hey,
when you go look go online and look at the plans,
the drawings, the computer generated renderings, what they're going to
(13:49):
look like. They're quite spectacular. I mean really spectacular, like
Las Vegas quality facilities. Look at the one across from
City Field. It's pretty impressive. In fact, you know, people
are going to be look at it. What the hell
is this? How did this get in Queens? It looks
really amazing. The one in the Bronx where the Trump
(14:10):
golf course, that looks pretty impressive. The one at Aqueduct
Bear so it looks pretty good. Now here's the thing.
If you get approved to get a license, you have
to buy the license. You have to put up a fee.
So the fee for a casino license is five hundred million.
So they approved three of them. That's one point five
(14:32):
billion right there. That comes into the city one point
five billion in revenue first day. And then they go
ahead and they build these casinos, and the three casinos
will employ twenty three thousand people. That's a lot of jobs,
and one of the things is that right over the
throgs Neck Bridge and throgs Neck it's the golf course
(14:53):
that was a Trump golf course and now Bally's runs it.
Somewhere in the Trump contract. If they get rid of
it and make it a casino, Trump organization gets one
hundred and fifteen million. So they made one hundred and
fifteen million on the deal. But it's a pretty good deal.
And then these casinos are expected to generate over a
(15:15):
billion dollars in revenue every year, and maybe more than that,
maybe a lot more. So it's a good reason to
get rid of the congestion, pricing all that stuff. You'll notice, mom,
Donnie has not said a word about these three casinos
coming into his city. That's a good sign. That's a
good sign. You'd think a democratic socialist communist would hate
the idea of these big, splashy, flashy Steve Winn kind
(15:38):
of casinos all over the place. But he hasn't said
a word. So maybe, you know, sometimes these democratic socialists
like money, and they're a little more corrupt than anybody else.
They're a little more bribable, biable. So the fact that
he's kept quiet, that's a good sign. Yeah, that's one
thing about the Blasio bad as. The guy was if
(16:00):
you threw a lot of money around, he respected that.
You know, the business guys threw a lot of money
all over the place in his direction and he enjoyed
that and kept quiet about a lot of things. So
a good sign with mom, Donnie, and we've got a
lot to get to. We'll take some calls next. Eight
hundred three two one zero seven ten is the number.
Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.
This is seven or boy, the Mark Simoon Show starts now.

of our military who sunk two hundred ships. I sunk
(10:50):
two ships. It's more that's more like kind of Michael's
Navy kind of stuff.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
But okay, folks in the military need to understand, you know,
the law to see the Geneva Conventions. If there were,
in fact, as reported, you know, survivors clinging to a
damaged vessel, that that could be you know, over a line.
I hope it's not the case.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
He hopes, He really hopes it's not the case. This
guy is praying every night it's the case. He would
do anything for it to be. Now, the problem is
they're going to keep pushing this story about they blew up. Now,
first of all, everybody, normal people, like if there's a
drug cartel ship filled with fentanyl that it got blown up.
You ever watched Breaking Bad, the awful cartel people, those
(11:38):
disgusting people. You just wish a bomb would hit them
and kill them all, get rid of this cartel. But
that's what the president is doing, blowing up the cartel,
their ships, their drugs, the people in the cartel, just
blowing them up one by one. Remember, every time you
hit the ship, it's not just that you killed these people.
That ship probably had enough drugs on it, fentanyl, you know,
(11:59):
all that stuff probably worth fifty sixty seventy million dollars.
You're doing incredible economic damage every time you blow up
the ship. Now, when you blow up the ship, I
would assume if you got the okay to fly over
the ship, drop bombs and blow it up, it's assumed
you're killing everybody on the ship. If that's a little
(12:22):
ship and you've got these big aircraft dropping massive bombs.
You've seen the video right where they just blow the
whole thing out of the water. You could pretty much
assume you're gonna kill everybody on that ship. So I
think this is the problem they're going to have as
they try to push this story on people. Most people
like me are gonna say, well, the reason they were
there is to blow up the ship and kill everybody.
(12:43):
What's the difference if they fired a second shot. I
mean when they hit those Iran nuclear reactors, if you watch,
it wasn't one shot. They just kept bombing them for
like twenty minutes, just kept dropping bombs. You want to
make sure you got everything. So if you're there to
blow up the ship and kill everybody, I don't know,
what's the horrible thing that you fired a second shot?
(13:05):
Well you might have killed survivors. Well, they're not the
it's not the professor in Marianne that you're blowing up.
It's I mean, these are drug cartel guys. You're there
to kill them all. You're there to blow up the
ship and kill them all. If you got to fire
a second shot. All right. So they'll push this for
another week, they'll focus group a tested. If it's not
working out, they'll they'll drop it real fast. Hey, the
(13:28):
casinos got approved yesterday. There were three final casino bids,
and the casino board surprised people. They approved all three casinos.
Now when you hear casino, it sounds okay, but hey,
when you go look go online and look at the plans,
the drawings, the computer generated renderings, what they're going to
(13:49):
look like. They're quite spectacular. I mean really spectacular, like
Las Vegas quality facilities. Look at the one across from
City Field. It's pretty impressive. In fact, you know, people
are going to be look at it. What the hell
is this? How did this get in Queens? It looks
really amazing. The one in the Bronx where the Trump
(14:10):
golf course, that looks pretty impressive. The one at Aqueduct
Bear so it looks pretty good. Now here's the thing.
If you get approved to get a license, you have
to buy the license. You have to put up a fee.
So the fee for a casino license is five hundred million.
So they approved three of them. That's one point five
(14:32):
billion right there. That comes into the city one point
five billion in revenue first day. And then they go
ahead and they build these casinos, and the three casinos
will employ twenty three thousand people. That's a lot of jobs,
and one of the things is that right over the
throgs Neck Bridge and throgs Neck it's the golf course
(14:53):
that was a Trump golf course and now Bally's runs it.
Somewhere in the Trump contract. If they get rid of
it and make it a casino, Trump organization gets one
hundred and fifteen million. So they made one hundred and
fifteen million on the deal. But it's a pretty good deal.
And then these casinos are expected to generate over a
(15:15):
billion dollars in revenue every year, and maybe more than that,
maybe a lot more. So it's a good reason to
get rid of the congestion, pricing all that stuff. You'll notice, mom,
Donnie has not said a word about these three casinos
coming into his city. That's a good sign. That's a
good sign. You'd think a democratic socialist communist would hate
the idea of these big, splashy, flashy Steve Winn kind
(15:38):
of casinos all over the place. But he hasn't said
a word. So maybe, you know, sometimes these democratic socialists
like money, and they're a little more corrupt than anybody else.
They're a little more bribable, biable. So the fact that
he's kept quiet, that's a good sign. Yeah, that's one
thing about the Blasio bad as. The guy was if
(16:00):
you threw a lot of money around, he respected that.
You know, the business guys threw a lot of money
all over the place in his direction and he enjoyed
that and kept quiet about a lot of things. So
a good sign with mom, Donnie, and we've got a
lot to get to. We'll take some calls next. Eight
hundred three two one zero seven ten is the number.
Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
