The Democrats are using the recent drug boat strike as an opportunity to portray Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth as part of a broader issue, criticizing the Trump Administration for decisions that conflict with their views. This comes on the heels of President Trump’s controversial comments referring to Somali immigrants as “garbage,” which prompted a strong response from Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, who condemned the remarks as racially motivated and deeply hurtful.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Fly from Midtown Manhattan.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Here comes the Mark Simone Show on seven tr.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Hey, we got a lot to get to today. The
war crimes hoax, it's almost over, so mahya, unbelievable fraud.
We'll get to the Christmas tree lighting. We'll get to
the New York Times. We'll get to Luigi Mangeon. You
know it's a year ago. It's the one year anniversary
of that horrible shooting. We'll get to Mom, Donnie and
Net and Yahoo, and we'll get to Trumps arrangement syndrome,
(00:32):
new research coming out about it. We'll get to Christmas
parties and a whole lot more so. The the Democrats
trying everything. You notice they abandoned Epstein. You haven't heard
them mentioned Epstein in two three weeks. They gave up
on that. It didn't test well, it didn't focus group well,
it wasn't working. They think the war crimes hoax, this
(00:54):
will take down the entire Trump administration, or at least
get rid of Pete Hexath. It will do neither of
those things. Hexaf is fine. He's not going anywhere, obviously.
If you're gonna blow up a drug boat, a coke boat,
a narco boat, as they call him. If you're going
after the car, tell to blow up the boat. You
drop a lot of bombs, not one. This new ridiculous,
(01:17):
preposterous Democrat rule that you're only allowed to one bomb,
one bomb. If you don't get him with the one bomb,
that's it doesn't make any sense. Anybody in the history
of warfare, any general, any leader, will tell you you
drop a lot of bombs and try to wipe them out.
President Trump is just kind of laughing at this. He
(01:38):
kind of enjoys this. He likes when the Democrats come
up with a hoax where he knows it's not going
to work, and in the end it'll fizzle out. What's
today Thursday, They'll try it one last time. They'll try
it for another couple of days. They'll do it on
the Sunday shows, and then that's it. That'll be the
end of the war crimes hoax. They'll see it's going nowhere,
doesn't work. Signal Chat. They're trying to bring that back
(02:02):
with the Inspector General's report that Pete Hagzeff did actually
violate used classified information on the signal Chat. What a
violation now, actually, if you look down on the fine print,
it says it's not actually anything wrong, And the Secretary
(02:22):
of Defense had the power at any time to declassify anything,
so it's up to him what he puts up there.
And as far as using the signal gate app, the
signal app that was standard operating procedure in the Pentagon,
it was in the Pentagon Manual to use it. It
was just fine. So this Inspector General's report means absolutely nothing.
It's coming way too late. Nobody even remembers this signal thing.
(02:47):
These things mean absolutely nothing. But if you're the democratic
echo chamber, the media democratic echo chamber, MSNBC, CNN, you
need these kind of things. It's like doing a drama
on TV. You create these little subplots and you create
these little things to talk about. So it's MSNBC. They
(03:08):
got to fill twenty four hours a day. Ms now,
it's now ms NOW. So they create this nonsense and
they just keep talking about it. And all the old
ladies who are the big Trump Arrangement syndrome people, and
all the crazy left wingers can run around and talk
about this war crimes, signal Gate and yell and screaming
about this. Normal people don't know what the hell they're
talking about normal people are going to work, living their lives,
(03:33):
watching the football game. I didn't know anything about signal gate,
war crime, solks. What are you talking about? So it'll
go away now, you know, starting what's today, Yeah, next
week it starts where it gets into the really heavy
Christmas party season. And every day, if you're in Washington,
there's a million Christmas parties these people have to go to.
(03:55):
In Congress, in government, there's a million Christmas parties for
all the lobby the suppliers, the vendors, the contractors, that
all the people that they deal with. So they'll be
all snarled up and tied up for the next couple
of weeks with Christmas, and it's Congress, they take a
you know, like a million vacation days. They'll be gone
very early for Christmas, so you got another few days
(04:18):
and then they're all busy and gone and that's the
end of it. Nobody will be concentrating on anything. Even
the White House. There's a White House Christmas party every
night for the next couple of weeks, sometimes two or
three at night. They just do these NonStop Christmas parties.
So it's just about over Hey. The other big thing
is the Somalia story. The Somalia community in Minnesota, led
(04:40):
by Ilan Omar, committed massive fraud. It appears to be
a massive, massive fraud. A billion dollars went missing, and
all kinds of screen schemes, left wing schemes, pandemic schemes,
but all run by the crazy left wing of the
Minnesota demic. A lot of Somalians in there. They set
(05:02):
a billion dollars. But Mike Johnson, Congress is going to
look into this. It's staggering. Tom Emmer, of course, is
from Minnesota, and he tells us that it may be
as much as two billion dollars in broader Minnesota. And
Tim Wallas has a lot to answer for. Congress has
a lot.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Of interest in this, and we're going to track it down.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
And I think I think the authorities will as well. Yeah,
so Congress will get to it. They'll be criminal charges.
Looks like it's going to be two billion, two billion.
He got the Somalian Democrats, Elon Omar and all these
people that did it. Now, of course they're Democrats. The
media will pay no attention to this, they'll bury the story,
never mentioned it. But you wonder when you watch Donald
(05:41):
Trump sometimes why does he say these things? Well, why
does he have to talk like that? Well, sometimes it's
very strategic. So he started talking about Omar, Somalia, all
of this stuff, and he crossed the line. She should
be allowed to be a congresswoman. And I'm sure people
are looking at that, and she should be on the
hell out of our country.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
And most of those people they have destroyed Minnesota.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Okay, that's okay, now that parts see you stop right there. Yeah,
if you're that big of a crook you're involved in that
bigger fraud, of course you should be thrown out of Congress.
And if it's that big of fraud in you defrauded
your community, of course you should be thrown out. Okay, there,
he's fine, But then he keeps going, We're going to
go the wrong way if we keep taking in garbage
into our country. Elan Omar is garbage. She's garbage, Her
(06:27):
friends are garbage. These are people that work. These are
people that say, let's go, come on, let's make this
place great.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
These are people that do nothing but complain. They complain
and from where they came from, they got nothing.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
You know, if they came from Paradise and they said,
this isn't paradise. But when they come from hell and
they complain and do nothing, but bitch, we don't want
them in our country. Okay, you're not supposed to talk
like that if you're the president. But it's brilliant what
he's done there. Brilliant. He's put the media, the left
(07:03):
wing in a real bine. Now to them, that's racist,
ethnic slur, really over the top, wrong, disgusting. You can't
talk like it. So they want to go after him
on this. They want to really go after him on
that stuff. But to do that, they got to publicize
the Somalia scandal, the two billion fraud. They wanted to
(07:26):
bury the story and hide it now because they want
to use this stuff again, so they're going to have
to go after it. So he's put them in a
real trap where now they have to cover this story.
So now it will get attention. Now it will go
before Congress, and now they'll be hearing so brilliant on
the part of Donald Trump. Now people will always complain
they were doing this before you got into politics. I
(07:48):
remember for the twenty years before he was in politicy,
same thing. He'd say things that were over the top,
that were outrageous, and lets supposed to talk like that.
Why does he have to say these things? But I
was thinking about this yesterday. If you go back, you
know how, you're on Twitter or you're somewhere online, and
they show you these clips. Look at what Obama said
fifteen years ago, and he's talking about we must close
(08:10):
the border. We got to get rid of these illegals.
They'll always find these clips. God, check out my Twitter
right now. There's a clip of Bernie Sanders twenty years
ago sounding like Trump. But we got to get rid
of these illegals. We can't let them in. They're taking
jobs from America. So you see all these clips of
these Democrats, they try to show you how hypocritical they are.
That look what they said back then. They said the
(08:31):
same things Trump said. They said. But you have to
remember this is the real difference between the Democrats and Trump.
Democrats when they're running will always say the right things.
You watch Hillary when she was running, you can see
all this campaign video, and Bill Clinton and Obama they
said all the right stuff when they were running. They
said exactly what you want them to say, exactly what
(08:54):
they agree with you can plead. Then they get elected,
and they don't do any of it. They don't do nothing.
Trump is the opposite. He'll say all the wrong things,
but then he gets in office and he actually gets
everything done. He says all the things you shouldn't say,
but he gets it done. He gets the job done,
He does the right stuff. Democrats are the opposite. When
they're running, they'll say all the right stuff, tell you
(09:15):
all the right things. Then when they get office, don't
do a damn thing. It's like Mom Donnie with his affordability,
and you got a few of these. Mom Donnie's the
one that ran in Nashville. They'll run on affordability, affordability, affordability.
They watch when they get in office, they'll not only
do nothing about affordability, everything ends up costing more. They'll
do more damage to the problem. So that's just a
(09:36):
democratic thing. The same thing with Newsom. Look at Newsom.
He looks good, sounds good. He's out there saying all
the right stuff. Meantime he's completely screwing up the state.
You know, gas is three dollars an hour, three dollars
a gallon. That's the average in America right now, three
dollars a gallon in twenty five states, it's below three dollars.
In California it's six fifty seven dollars. This is newsome
(10:00):
say all the right things, but completely screw up. He's
got the worst numbers, the worst statistics, the worst affordability,
the worst job lost. But he says all the right things.
And for some reason that's fine with Democrats. They like that.
Now there's this new breed of Democrats, themom Donni's, and
that's all these young they look good, sound good, their
(10:20):
social media influencers. They're great, they're charming, and all the
new Democratic voters are voting for this. They have no
interest in the old dinosaurs, these old you know, they
look at Chuck Schumer like he's a mummy, like he's
an old fossil, Like he's a like a corpse. They
dug up. He just looks a thousand years old. To them.
He looks ridiculously outdated, even when he agrees with him,
(10:42):
even if he's talking about the bombing of the ships.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
If Trump were to order an attack on land, that
would be an act of war, and Congress would invoke
the War Powers Act. It's Congress's prerogative to go to war.
And I hope Republicans will defend that role.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
This is everything the new Democrats hate the voters now,
they hate this, oh, this old fossil. They want the
new breed, the Mom Donni's you know, Mom Donnie gets
on that social media and he talks a mile a minute,
and he sounds brilliant. He talks really fast, he's got
a great smile, he looks charming, good looking. And then
you got this old shumer with the rumpled up old suit,
(11:24):
the old man glasses that are all fogged up, and
reading it off index cards. You know, to younger voters,
they've never even seen an index card. They don't know
what the hell these things he's holding. They don't write
anything down. Everything's digital to them. They've never seen an
index card. They don't know what it is. Where you
would get such a thing. Hey, last night was the
Christmas tree lighting. I don't know what the fuss is
(11:47):
about a Christmas tree lighting. It's beautiful to see the tree.
You could walk over there right now, it's right over there,
Rockefeller Center. You see the tree. Magnificent, it's beautiful. But
the idea of watching the lighting of it, if you
went to someplace where they had beautiful lighting at a
restaurant and you walked he said, wow, that's beautiful lighting.
Look at that. That's all you want to see? You
(12:08):
could you turn it off? I don't like to see
you turn it on, the idea of turning a light
on it. You want to see it on, you don't
want to see it oft and then it's on. If
this is that fascinating to you to watch a tree lighting,
and you couldn't go to Rockefeller Center because you said
there's ten thousand people there, you can't get anywhere near
there at a myths, you can watch the tree lighting
of the Rockefeller Centered tree in person every morning at
(12:30):
five am. You know, they turn the lights off at midnight,
then they turn them back on at five am. So
if you want to see the tree lighting in Rockefeller
Center seven days a week, any morning, just go at
five am. I'll get there at ten of five or whatever,
and then you can see him turn the lights on.
It's not that exciting, but you can watch it. So
this stuff is getting bigger and bigger. More people watch
(12:50):
this this. You know they used to do the tree
lighting and then they would you know, videotape it and
chop it up and it would be this little special
on Channel four one o'clock to seven thirty. Then it
got bigger, went to the network. All of a sudden,
it was a network show, not just Channel four, and
it became like an hour. Now it's like two hours,
three hours. It's like the Grammy Awards, twelve famous singers
(13:12):
and roquettes and dancers. It's a massive primetime special and
it gets big ratings. We didn't get the rating shit
for last night, but it'll be huge, you know. The
Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade set a record this year. The
Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade got unbelievable ratings. I think it
was twenty six million people, which is like the most
(13:34):
viewers for anything on television, like in seven years. I
think the last thing was an Oscar show that did
twenty six million. I mean outside of a sports event,
but unbelievable how popular the parade is. Hey, speaking of TV,
Boston Blue just got renewed for season two. That's the
spinoff from the Great show Blue Blood. So it's only
(13:56):
been on. It was the seventh show this week, eighth show.
But it's got big ratings. They've already renewed it for
season two pretty good. Hey, The New York Times had
this big summit yesterday at Lincoln Center, the big conference
with the huge audience, and they had that wormy weasel
Andrew Sorkin moderated, and they had all kinds of big
(14:19):
guest speakers. But we give a lot of credit to
Scott Bessant, the great Scott Bessnt, who told them off
right to their face right at the New York Times summit.
He said, I don't even read the New York Times anymore.
And he called Andrew Sorkin a pop historian, which is
really an insulting to him. Let me see if I
(14:40):
have the clip here, this is this is uh, this
is bessn't At the New York Times summit, you.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Had what was the great, one of the greatest scandals
of all time, that the coverage of the Biden administration,
Joe Biden's diminished capacity and the cover up, and there
to raise these questions were in New York Times. We
just had a three hour cabinet meeting yesterday, Andrew, for
ten months the Biden administration did not have a cabinet meeting.
(15:09):
How are you going to invote the twenty fifth Amendment?
If the cabinet secretaries never see the president, which they didn't.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Now you actually go to my Twitter. You got to
actually watch the clips because Andrew ross Serkin is squirming,
absolutely squirming. He's all upset and everything Best in this
saying it's driving him nuts. And at one point he says,
I just don't even read the New York Times anymore.
It's no longer the paper or record. This is right
at their Summit's a good for best and good job
(15:37):
on his part. Hey, Luigi, Man's you own trial. As
I said, it's taking place there trying to get the
evidence tossed. He's got some pretty good lawyers and some
legal experts watch and say, these guys have I don't
know who knows if they'll win these arguments, but they
got some pretty good arguments to get evidence tossed out
of there. It's going to be. It's an interesting case
already because it's been one year that's shooting. I remember
(15:59):
we all watched that video. Remember the day had unfolded.
It was one year ago. But he's you know, it's
Democrats that love him, So he's got fans and supporters
cheering him every time he comes in and out of
the court. This is a murderer, an executioner, an assassin.
Democrats cheering him, young democrats, you know, the whole nosering crowd. Women,
(16:19):
they love this guy. But it's a shooting. You know,
if you're in New York City, on the streets of
New York you're on a surveillance camera. No matter where
you are, all of Manhattan, every inch is covered by
surveillance cameras. So he shoots the guy in the street
and sidewalk and it's all recorded. You can see him
do it right. So I don't know how he thinks
(16:40):
he's going to win this case. I mean, we saw
him do it right on camera. But it's crazy New
York City, crazy New York judges, so who knows what
could happen? Hey, well, take some calls in just a minute.
Eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten is
the number. Eight hundred three to two, one zero seven
to ten.
Fly from Midtown Manhattan.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Here comes the Mark Simone Show on seven tr.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Hey, we got a lot to get to today. The
war crimes hoax, it's almost over, so mahya, unbelievable fraud.
We'll get to the Christmas tree lighting. We'll get to
the New York Times. We'll get to Luigi Mangeon. You
know it's a year ago. It's the one year anniversary

them mentioned Epstein in two three weeks. They gave up

it wasn't working. They think the war crimes hoax, this
(00:54):
will take down the entire Trump administration, or at least
get rid of Pete Hexath. It will do neither of
those things. Hexaf is fine. He's not going anywhere, obviously.
If you're gonna blow up a drug boat, a coke boat,
a narco boat, as they call him. If you're going
after the car, tell to blow up the boat. You
drop a lot of bombs, not one. This new ridiculous,
(01:17):
preposterous Democrat rule that you're only allowed to one bomb,
one bomb. If you don't get him with the one bomb,
that's it doesn't make any sense. Anybody in the history
of warfare, any general, any leader, will tell you you

President Trump is just kind of laughing at this. He

talking about normal people are going to work, living their lives,
(03:33):
watching the football game. I didn't know anything about signal gate,
war crime, solks. What are you talking about? So it'll
go away now, you know, starting what's today, Yeah, next
week it starts where it gets into the really heavy
Christmas party season. And every day, if you're in Washington,
there's a million Christmas parties these people have to go to.
(03:55):
In Congress, in government, there's a million Christmas parties for
all the lobby the suppliers, the vendors, the contractors, that

(04:18):
and then they're all busy and gone and that's the
end of it. Nobody will be concentrating on anything. Even
the White House. There's a White House Christmas party every
night for the next couple of weeks, sometimes two or
three at night. They just do these NonStop Christmas parties.
So it's just about over Hey. The other big thing
is the Somalia story. The Somalia community in Minnesota, led
(04:40):
by Ilan Omar, committed massive fraud. It appears to be
a massive, massive fraud. A billion dollars went missing, and
all kinds of screen schemes, left wing schemes, pandemic schemes,
but all run by the crazy left wing of the
Minnesota demic. A lot of Somalians in there. They set
(05:02):
a billion dollars. But Mike Johnson, Congress is going to

Speaker 1 (05:18):
And I think I think the authorities will as well. Yeah,
so Congress will get to it. They'll be criminal charges.
Looks like it's going to be two billion, two billion.
He got the Somalian Democrats, Elon Omar and all these
people that did it. Now, of course they're Democrats. The
media will pay no attention to this, they'll bury the story,
never mentioned it. But you wonder when you watch Donald
(05:41):
Trump sometimes why does he say these things? Well, why
does he have to talk like that? Well, sometimes it's
very strategic. So he started talking about Omar, Somalia, all
of this stuff, and he crossed the line. She should
be allowed to be a congresswoman. And I'm sure people
are looking at that, and she should be on the
hell out of our country.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
And most of those people they have destroyed Minnesota.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Okay, that's okay, now that parts see you stop right there. Yeah,
if you're that big of a crook you're involved in that
bigger fraud, of course you should be thrown out of Congress.
And if it's that big of fraud in you defrauded
your community, of course you should be thrown out. Okay, there,
he's fine, But then he keeps going, We're going to
go the wrong way if we keep taking in garbage
into our country. Elan Omar is garbage. She's garbage, Her
(06:27):
friends are garbage. These are people that work. These are
people that say, let's go, come on, let's make this
place great.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
These are people that do nothing but complain. They complain
and from where they came from, they got nothing.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
You know, if they came from Paradise and they said,
this isn't paradise. But when they come from hell and
they complain and do nothing, but bitch, we don't want
them in our country. Okay, you're not supposed to talk
like that if you're the president. But it's brilliant what
he's done there. Brilliant. He's put the media, the left
(07:03):
wing in a real bine. Now to them, that's racist,
ethnic slur, really over the top, wrong, disgusting. You can't
talk like it. So they want to go after him
on this. They want to really go after him on
that stuff. But to do that, they got to publicize
the Somalia scandal, the two billion fraud. They wanted to
(07:26):
bury the story and hide it now because they want
to use this stuff again, so they're going to have
to go after it. So he's put them in a
real trap where now they have to cover this story.
So now it will get attention. Now it will go
before Congress, and now they'll be hearing so brilliant on
the part of Donald Trump. Now people will always complain
they were doing this before you got into politics. I
(07:48):
remember for the twenty years before he was in politicy,
same thing. He'd say things that were over the top,
that were outrageous, and lets supposed to talk like that.
Why does he have to say these things? But I
was thinking about this yesterday. If you go back, you
know how, you're on Twitter or you're somewhere online, and
they show you these clips. Look at what Obama said
fifteen years ago, and he's talking about we must close
(08:10):
the border. We got to get rid of these illegals.
They'll always find these clips. God, check out my Twitter
right now. There's a clip of Bernie Sanders twenty years
ago sounding like Trump. But we got to get rid
of these illegals. We can't let them in. They're taking
jobs from America. So you see all these clips of
these Democrats, they try to show you how hypocritical they are.
That look what they said back then. They said the
(08:31):
same things Trump said. They said. But you have to
remember this is the real difference between the Democrats and Trump.
Democrats when they're running will always say the right things.
You watch Hillary when she was running, you can see
all this campaign video, and Bill Clinton and Obama they
said all the right stuff when they were running. They
said exactly what you want them to say, exactly what
(08:54):
they agree with you can plead. Then they get elected,
and they don't do any of it. They don't do nothing.
Trump is the opposite. He'll say all the wrong things,
but then he gets in office and he actually gets
everything done. He says all the things you shouldn't say,
but he gets it done. He gets the job done,
He does the right stuff. Democrats are the opposite. When
they're running, they'll say all the right stuff, tell you
(09:15):
all the right things. Then when they get office, don't
do a damn thing. It's like Mom Donnie with his affordability,
and you got a few of these. Mom Donnie's the
one that ran in Nashville. They'll run on affordability, affordability, affordability.
They watch when they get in office, they'll not only
do nothing about affordability, everything ends up costing more. They'll
do more damage to the problem. So that's just a
(09:36):
democratic thing. The same thing with Newsom. Look at Newsom.
He looks good, sounds good. He's out there saying all
the right stuff. Meantime he's completely screwing up the state.
You know, gas is three dollars an hour, three dollars
a gallon. That's the average in America right now, three
dollars a gallon in twenty five states, it's below three dollars.
In California it's six fifty seven dollars. This is newsome
(10:00):
say all the right things, but completely screw up. He's
got the worst numbers, the worst statistics, the worst affordability,
the worst job lost. But he says all the right things.
And for some reason that's fine with Democrats. They like that.
Now there's this new breed of Democrats, themom Donni's, and
that's all these young they look good, sound good, their
(10:20):
social media influencers. They're great, they're charming, and all the
new Democratic voters are voting for this. They have no
interest in the old dinosaurs, these old you know, they
look at Chuck Schumer like he's a mummy, like he's
an old fossil, Like he's a like a corpse. They
dug up. He just looks a thousand years old. To them.
He looks ridiculously outdated, even when he agrees with him,
(10:42):
even if he's talking about the bombing of the ships.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
If Trump were to order an attack on land, that
would be an act of war, and Congress would invoke
the War Powers Act. It's Congress's prerogative to go to war.
And I hope Republicans will defend that role.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
This is everything the new Democrats hate the voters now,
they hate this, oh, this old fossil. They want the
new breed, the Mom Donni's you know, Mom Donnie gets
on that social media and he talks a mile a minute,
and he sounds brilliant. He talks really fast, he's got
a great smile, he looks charming, good looking. And then
you got this old shumer with the rumpled up old suit,
(11:24):
the old man glasses that are all fogged up, and
reading it off index cards. You know, to younger voters,
they've never even seen an index card. They don't know
what the hell these things he's holding. They don't write
anything down. Everything's digital to them. They've never seen an
index card. They don't know what it is. Where you
would get such a thing. Hey, last night was the
Christmas tree lighting. I don't know what the fuss is
(11:47):
about a Christmas tree lighting. It's beautiful to see the tree.
You could walk over there right now, it's right over there,
Rockefeller Center. You see the tree. Magnificent, it's beautiful. But
the idea of watching the lighting of it, if you
went to someplace where they had beautiful lighting at a
restaurant and you walked he said, wow, that's beautiful lighting.
Look at that. That's all you want to see? You
(12:08):
could you turn it off? I don't like to see
you turn it on, the idea of turning a light
on it. You want to see it on, you don't
want to see it oft and then it's on. If
this is that fascinating to you to watch a tree lighting,
and you couldn't go to Rockefeller Center because you said
there's ten thousand people there, you can't get anywhere near
there at a myths, you can watch the tree lighting
of the Rockefeller Centered tree in person every morning at
(12:30):
five am. You know, they turn the lights off at midnight,
then they turn them back on at five am. So
if you want to see the tree lighting in Rockefeller
Center seven days a week, any morning, just go at
five am. I'll get there at ten of five or whatever,
and then you can see him turn the lights on.
It's not that exciting, but you can watch it. So
this stuff is getting bigger and bigger. More people watch
(12:50):
this this. You know they used to do the tree
lighting and then they would you know, videotape it and
chop it up and it would be this little special
on Channel four one o'clock to seven thirty. Then it
got bigger, went to the network. All of a sudden,
it was a network show, not just Channel four, and
it became like an hour. Now it's like two hours,
three hours. It's like the Grammy Awards, twelve famous singers
(13:12):
and roquettes and dancers. It's a massive primetime special and
it gets big ratings. We didn't get the rating shit
for last night, but it'll be huge, you know. The
Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade set a record this year. The
Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade got unbelievable ratings. I think it
was twenty six million people, which is like the most
(13:34):
viewers for anything on television, like in seven years. I
think the last thing was an Oscar show that did
twenty six million. I mean outside of a sports event,
but unbelievable how popular the parade is. Hey, speaking of TV,
Boston Blue just got renewed for season two. That's the
spinoff from the Great show Blue Blood. So it's only
(13:56):
been on. It was the seventh show this week, eighth show.
But it's got big ratings. They've already renewed it for
season two pretty good. Hey, The New York Times had
this big summit yesterday at Lincoln Center, the big conference
with the huge audience, and they had that wormy weasel
Andrew Sorkin moderated, and they had all kinds of big
(14:19):
guest speakers. But we give a lot of credit to
Scott Bessant, the great Scott Bessnt, who told them off
right to their face right at the New York Times summit.
He said, I don't even read the New York Times anymore.
And he called Andrew Sorkin a pop historian, which is
really an insulting to him. Let me see if I
(14:40):
have the clip here, this is this is uh, this
is bessn't At the New York Times summit, you.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Had what was the great, one of the greatest scandals
of all time, that the coverage of the Biden administration,
Joe Biden's diminished capacity and the cover up, and there
to raise these questions were in New York Times. We
just had a three hour cabinet meeting yesterday, Andrew, for
ten months the Biden administration did not have a cabinet meeting.
(15:09):
How are you going to invote the twenty fifth Amendment?
If the cabinet secretaries never see the president, which they didn't.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Now you actually go to my Twitter. You got to
actually watch the clips because Andrew ross Serkin is squirming,
absolutely squirming. He's all upset and everything Best in this
saying it's driving him nuts. And at one point he says,
I just don't even read the New York Times anymore.
It's no longer the paper or record. This is right
at their Summit's a good for best and good job
(15:37):
on his part. Hey, Luigi, Man's you own trial. As
I said, it's taking place there trying to get the
evidence tossed. He's got some pretty good lawyers and some
legal experts watch and say, these guys have I don't
know who knows if they'll win these arguments, but they
got some pretty good arguments to get evidence tossed out
of there. It's going to be. It's an interesting case
already because it's been one year that's shooting. I remember
(15:59):
we all watched that video. Remember the day had unfolded.
It was one year ago. But he's you know, it's
Democrats that love him, So he's got fans and supporters
cheering him every time he comes in and out of
the court. This is a murderer, an executioner, an assassin.
Democrats cheering him, young democrats, you know, the whole nosering crowd. Women,
(16:19):
they love this guy. But it's a shooting. You know,
if you're in New York City, on the streets of
New York you're on a surveillance camera. No matter where
you are, all of Manhattan, every inch is covered by
surveillance cameras. So he shoots the guy in the street
and sidewalk and it's all recorded. You can see him
do it right. So I don't know how he thinks
(16:40):
he's going to win this case. I mean, we saw
him do it right on camera. But it's crazy New
York City, crazy New York judges, so who knows what
could happen? Hey, well, take some calls in just a minute.
Eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten is
the number. Eight hundred three to two, one zero seven
to 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.
