President Trump launched his nationwide campaign rally focused on affordability and his economic agenda last night in the Pennsylvania Poconos. According to his administration’s finance team, Trump’s proposed tax cuts are designed to put more money in Americans’ pockets. Meanwhile, Democrats continue to use the term “affordability” as a way to dismiss the President’s economic plan.

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Now on the Voice of New York he so Mark
Simone show on sevent ten Wolr May we got a
lot to get to today. Well, and it's another cold date.
It's a little better today, you know, I think everybody's
complaining some cold yesterday to day so cold. I think
(00:22):
I'm gonna take up smoking because I've noticed that if
if you smoke, they don't even feel the cold. It
could be ten below zero. As you can walk towards
this building, the smokers are all up front smoking. You know,
they all sneak out they have a cigarette. Could be
fifty below zero, ten feet they're still out there on
the sidewalk smoking. So what's today Wednesday? When we're almost
(00:44):
through this week, we got a lot to get to.
We'll get to the Somali community and the billions missing
in Minnesota. We'll get to affordability, We'll get to that
crazy brad Lander, and we'll get to you know, congestion
Pricing is now celebrating it's one year anniversary. It's coming
up on one year. The yelling and screaming about it
(01:07):
has died down a bit. I guess people just starting
to accept it. It's probably going to be here forever.
It doesn't go away. You know. It's like when they
raised the symptoms. They don't raise your maintenance or your
property text. It's what they call an assessment to fund something,
a little assessment while we need it. It never goes away.
These things never ever go away. President Trump went to
(01:31):
Pennsylvania last night for the rally. He's been in the
White House now for about eleven months, and a lot
of times they start to do these things for two reasons. One,
you're not getting your message across because the media is
so corrupt, and they've focus grouped prices, and that's how
(01:52):
they came up with the word affordability. It tested the
best in focus groups, so Democrats used it successfully in
elections in November, and the media just goes crazy attacking
Trump on affordability. It's all a bit of a hoax
because the fact is in the eleven months that he's
been there, prices have come down quite a bit. Inflation
(02:14):
has been cut in half, which is pretty good in
ten months. He always said it would take a year,
year and a half to get it down. Now, remember
the big beautiful bill that he passed with all the
tax cuts, all that stuff has not taken effect yet.
Although they got it passed this year, it doesn't kick
in until January, so you'll see a huge change in January.
(02:36):
Everybody will be getting more money in their paychecks in
January because the bill will begin January first. The tax cuts. Again,
prices are already down. Inflation hit nine percent at one
time under Biden. The average under Biden was five percent.
It's now two and a half, so he's cut inflation
in half already. Food prices are down. They'll point to
(02:59):
a couple of things, like beef prices. What about beef,
that's the reason for the beef prices being way up.
You can thank Joe Biden and the Democrats for that.
I don't know if you remember about about two years
ago they started this war on cows, claiming that cows
caused climate change. I forget how they came up with
that or how they explained it, but they went after
(03:21):
the cattle industry in the Green scheme, and as a result,
the cattle industry had to cut back the size of
herds and all that stuff. So they are less cattle,
less cows, less beef. Now they have to get that back.
It's just like with oil where they cut back drilling.
There was less oil out there and made the price
go up. And the same thing with cattle. We had
(03:42):
a lot less cattle than we usually have. So Trump
administration has changed all that. It'll take again, it takes
more than a few months. It's going to take a
year to get the cattle herds back up to where
they were, and that brings down the price. So it
was in Pennsylvania to do the rally to get the
message out about it for the ability. But wages are
up since he took office. Wages are up, prices are down.
(04:04):
You got to get that across, although it's tough because
fake news will just keep yelling that there's a terrible
affordability crisis. It really isn't. It's a lot better. I mean,
if you call this an affordability crisis, what did you
call two years ago when it was five times worse.
So now the other reason you do the rallies is
(04:28):
a president who's a great speaker, great performer. When he
gets elected. Now he goes into the White House and
he's in the White House and that's it, and he speaks,
it's in a room with a podium to people he knows.
And after a while, you start to get well, it's
your caged animal. You need to get out there. They
(04:50):
saw this with Reagan, and they realized they had to
get him out there. Let him give him a big audience,
give him thousands of people out there, Let him do rallies,
let him do speeches. It's like a great actor, performer, comedian, singer.
You gotta let him go out on stage. You gotta
let him get out there. So they started to do
these rallies for Reagan for no reason, just because he
needed it. He needed the energy from the crowds, needed
(05:11):
to get out of the White House, get back in
touch with the people. So every couple of weeks they
set up something for Reagan, usually close by so he
could get there fast and get home fast, and not California, nearby, Maryland, Pennsylvania.
So they need to do this with Trump. He needs
to get out there, get back on stage, get back
to performing for audiences. So you'll see more of these.
(05:34):
He did an hour and a half last night. I
know the fake news will tell you he's got no energy,
can't stay awake. He did an hour and a half,
a lot longer than he's supposed to do. He was
kind of all over the map, so he didn't. You know,
they say you gotta stay on message, and well, Trump's
not going to do that. The coverage of it, of course,
is bad because that's the way they do things. They
(05:56):
talked about affordability. He talked in great detail about what
he would do about it, and a couple of times
he made some jokes. So if you're watching the fake news,
all they would say is he ridiculed affordability. He made
fun of the problem of affordability. Was totally inaccurate portrayal
of what happened. So you'll see more of these rallies. Hey,
(06:17):
yesterday had some special elections. The interesting one was Miami
mayoral election, special election that had run off. The Democrat won.
Now that's unusual. Usually it's a Republican in Miami. It's
the first time a Democrat has won in thirty years
in Miami. So if you're watching the fake news, they'll
tell you this is a bad sign for the midterms.
(06:39):
This is a bad barometer what's going to happen in
the midterms. The fact that the Democrat won in Miami,
of all places where Democrats never win, this is a
bad sign for a well I think you got to
look at more detail at this race. Nobody showed up
to vote. There was no turnout. The total votes thirty
(06:59):
six thousand, which is unheard of. That's incredibly low. So
nobody showed up to vote. That's how the Democrat got in. Now,
as we've talked about here in New York, they got
the same problem in Miami. There really is not much
of a Republican party machine. One thing about the Democrats.
They have a strong party with infrastructure, lots of bodies,
(07:22):
and what they call the ground game, which is crucial.
Boots on the ground that get turnout, get people out
to the polls. You know, door knockers, people working phone banks,
people you know, knocking on doors. You need this kind
of stuff. Democrats have that same thing we have in
New York. Same problem in Miami. Republicans nothing public party
(07:44):
is there, three people, part time, nothing. Democrats have a
massive amount of people on the ground to get turnout.
So it was a tiny little turnout and Democrats want
so don't take it as much of a sign of anything.
Heymmy Kimmel. Last Night special guest David Letterman Is returned
to late night TV, and he looked like the old
(08:07):
Letterman with the suits and the tie and those shiny
socks and the loafers, and but still with the white beard.
You know, if you're a kid watching Jimmy Kimmel, you know,
you wouldn't know who Letterman is. And with that beard,
you must have thought, this is Santa Claus or something
coming up. Although if you're a kid, you're not going
to be watching Jimmy Kimmel. These late night shows. Average
(08:28):
age of the viewers is sixty three years old on
the late night shows now most of them just talk
about politics these late night shows. Instead of fun stuff.
It's all political and when you do that, you get
a much older audience. Average age of msnbcviewer I think
is sixty seven now. But Letterman on Kimmel, you know,
(08:49):
he was very big in late night TV on CBS,
in fact, beating Jane Leno at times. But then about
halfway through his run on CBS, Letterman started to get
political and it was pretty obvious he was a very
left wing guy, so he lost half his audience. If
you remember, he was doing very well on CBS against
the Tonight Show, and then as he got political and
(09:11):
went far to the left, he started to lose audience
and it went way down and started dropping and dropped
almost in half after a couple of years. So that
was the end, and that's when New it was time
to go, and CBS started looking around. But they made
the mistake of going with another left wing guy. You
want a guy in the middle. You know, if you
kind of make fun of everybody, you can do very well,
(09:32):
as Greg Guttfeld proved by getting bit. He has more
viewers than Kimmel, Fallon and Colbert combined every night. He's
the king of late night now. So but the point is,
Letterman came out and he went really crazy with the
Trump derangement syndrome. I mean really going after Trump with
the hysterical, hyperbolic, vicious attacks on him. Now, the other
(09:57):
thing he did, he came on and he congrat Jimmy Kimmel.
He says, you have just been re signed. You know,
they tried to throw you off the air, they tried
to get rid of you. They're pushing together get you fired.
Yet you just signed. You signed a big new contract.
And the audience cheered and went crazy for this big
new contract. Well, they're totally conning the audience Kimmel did
(10:19):
not get a big new contract, and he fact, he
got the most insulting contract literally in the history of
late night TV. Every contract to re sign your late
night host, it's always five years, always five years. In
case of a big, big name like a Carson or
in Oprah, it'd be a ten year contract. Kimmel was
(10:42):
re signed to a one year extension, which is the
worst insult. That's when you really don't like somebody or
you really don't think you're gonna keep a one year extension.
They tried to do that to Carson in ninety one,
and that's the reason he left. That's where he made
the decision it was time to go and quit because
he realized what an insult that is. So Kimmel has
(11:02):
not been resigned to a big new contract. The reason
they'll only do a one year extension. This is the
way they're not stuck with you, and if they have
to fire you tomorrow, they don't have to pay out
very much. They do only have to pay out for
eleven months or ten months, which they would do anyway.
So it's basically not even really a renewal, huge insult
to Kimmel. Letterman knows that and was just totally conning
(11:25):
the audience with his nonsense. So, hey, Brad Lander, you
know that is he was the controller, a real left
wing cook. He's no longer the controller. His term is
up and he's going to run for Congress. He's trying
to win Dan Goldman's seat. Now, this doesn't make any
(11:48):
difference to anybody. Dan Goldman also a far left kok
So if it's Lander Goldman, who cares. But Lander is
trying to run on something. Accomplishments. He tries to in
this commercial list his accomplishments. He doesn't have any, So
what could he possibly come up with? Well, he mentioned
the fact that he got arrested fighting ice. That's the accomplishment.
(12:12):
You remember, there was an ice proceeding going on in
a courtroom and Lander tried to burst in and they
told him he can't come in right now, and he
didn't listen, and he came in and they had to
arrest him and take him out. He was being disorderly.
He was totally guilty of disorderly conduct. Governor Hokeel was
called and ran right down to the courthouse and got
him released in her custody. But he's just a clown.
(12:35):
Just a silly guy, far left guy. He is one
of the reasons we have Mom Donnie as mayor. He
worked hard to get Mom Donnie elected. You remember, there
was a primary and Lander was running against Mom Donnie.
But then at some point he decided to join the
Mom Donnie team. They got together, they pulled their voters,
he endorsed Mom donn He got him through that primary,
(12:57):
and so they were very close. There were teammates on
this whole thing. And then something went wrong there and
Mom Donnie cut off Lander. After all this happened, you
figured Brad Lander bei a big part of the administration.
They had some kind of break up, some kind of fight,
and Mom Donnie cut Lander off completely. So apparently Lander
(13:21):
too represhensible even for Mom Donnie, so he was cut off.
Now he's running for this seat. He's a big blowhard showboat.
He's like a George Santos, kind of one stunt after another,
trying to get publicity. Problem with Dan Goldman. Besides being
a far left kook, he's kind of a quiet guy.
(13:41):
I don't think he can compete with all the stunts.
So who knows. Lander may have a shot against him.
You know, the most fascinating thing is Minnesota, the Somali
community where this fraud took place. Whenever, whenever Democratic leaders
start yelling about programs for the homeless, money seems to disappear.
(14:04):
You know, the great thing about the Green scheme, the
climate change, it was billions in contracts to hand out billions.
So that's why Democrats love that climate change green scheme stuff.
That's what it's called the Green steam scheme. You'd give
out massive contracts to companies in exchange for huge donations
and whatever you needed. Well, a lot of Democrats, especially
(14:27):
locally mayors and those sorts, I've realized the homeless scheme
is much better. The problem with the Green scheme when
you give out a contract, it's to a company in
Colorado that makes windmills or something, and they found with
the homeless, the money doesn't leave the community. You're still
giving out massive contracts, but you're giving them out right
(14:51):
in your neighborhood to people you know. So the money
comes back to you in a lot more ways and
a lot faster. So you remember, Bill de Blasio and
his wife set up this crazy program when he was
mayor called Thrive NYC. And it was helped the homeless.
And if you actually asked him, well, what exactly show
me the prom Well, it's yoga for homeless, Yoga for homeless. Literally,
(15:16):
that was one of the programs. So a billion dollars
was handed out. After it was all over, everybody looked
for the money or what happened, and they couldn't They
couldn't find it. Even a missus Deblasio and the husband
admitted they don't know where the money went. They can't
find it, they can't keep track of it. Well, you
got Minneapolis, you got the Somali leaders as elon Omars,
(15:40):
these types they set up the same thing. Programs are
the homeless. And if you were running a homeless type program,
they would give you money out of all these funds,
government funds, taxpayer funds, federal funds. And they started passing
out money and it's all gone. Nobody can find it.
And it looks like first a billion and they said
(16:00):
it's probably two billion. Now they think it might be
as much as eight billion has been stolen from taxpayers
has disappeared into this homeless scheme. And this is one
of the great great scandals of the news media. Fake news.
You'll notice you're not seeing any coverage of this. If
we had legitimate, actual media, if CBSABC, NBC were legitimate,
(16:23):
they'd be all over this. They would dispatch a whole
team of reporters, go to Minneapolis, don't leave until you
found out what happened, get to the bottom of this.
The New York Times, the Washington Post. They'd be sending reporters.
There's no coverage, no mention of it. They don't want
you to know about it. So this is what democrats do. Now,
they've got these homeless schemes where you get to hand
(16:46):
out money left and right. Now, Mom Donnie gets elected,
what's he talking about setting up a homeless program, setting
up a massive program to hand out massive contracts on
the So we had imagine it's the same exact scheme,
and that's what will happen here. And we've already got
some good homeless programs. He's canceling them because they basically
(17:08):
don't hand out massive contracts to anybody. So it's going
to be interesting to see what happens now, Mom Donnie
takes over. I know you're hearing everybody's fleeing. Everybody's leaving
New York with this not true. I'm sure you can
find somebody that's leaving New York. But the best thing
to do is look at real estate sales. As far
as apartments condos, sales are up up dramatically in the
(17:30):
last month. Now, sometimes that always happens year end, but
you had eight hundred and seventy six contracts signed the
last month. It'll take the super high end, very expensive,
multi zillion dollar apartment. You had nine contracts signed last week.
That's a lot. And the better things check the rental market.
That's people coming in. Rentals in New York City are
(17:54):
through the roof. In fact, right now it's very tough
to rent an apartment because rentals are going crazy, so
people are moving in despite Mom, Donnie. Anyway, we've got
a lot to get to. Well, we'll take some calls
in a moment. Eight hundred three two one zero seven
ten is the number. Eight hundred three two one zero
seven ten
Now on the Voice of New York he so Mark
Simone show on sevent ten Wolr May we got a
lot to get to today. Well, and it's another cold date.
It's a little better today, you know, I think everybody's
complaining some cold yesterday to day so cold. I think
(00:22):
I'm gonna take up smoking because I've noticed that if
if you smoke, they don't even feel the cold. It
could be ten below zero. As you can walk towards
this building, the smokers are all up front smoking. You know,
they all sneak out they have a cigarette. Could be
fifty below zero, ten feet they're still out there on
the sidewalk smoking. So what's today Wednesday? When we're almost
(00:44):
through this week, we got a lot to get to.
We'll get to the Somali community and the billions missing
in Minnesota. We'll get to affordability, We'll get to that
crazy brad Lander, and we'll get to you know, congestion
Pricing is now celebrating it's one year anniversary. It's coming
up on one year. The yelling and screaming about it
(01:07):
has died down a bit. I guess people just starting
to accept it. It's probably going to be here forever.
It doesn't go away. You know. It's like when they
raised the symptoms. They don't raise your maintenance or your
property text. It's what they call an assessment to fund something,
a little assessment while we need it. It never goes away.
These things never ever go away. President Trump went to
(01:31):
Pennsylvania last night for the rally. He's been in the
White House now for about eleven months, and a lot
of times they start to do these things for two reasons. One,
you're not getting your message across because the media is
so corrupt, and they've focus grouped prices, and that's how
(01:52):
they came up with the word affordability. It tested the
best in focus groups, so Democrats used it successfully in
elections in November, and the media just goes crazy attacking
Trump on affordability. It's all a bit of a hoax
because the fact is in the eleven months that he's
been there, prices have come down quite a bit. Inflation
(02:14):
has been cut in half, which is pretty good in
ten months. He always said it would take a year,
year and a half to get it down. Now, remember
the big beautiful bill that he passed with all the
tax cuts, all that stuff has not taken effect yet.
Although they got it passed this year, it doesn't kick
in until January, so you'll see a huge change in January.
(02:36):
Everybody will be getting more money in their paychecks in
January because the bill will begin January first. The tax cuts. Again,
prices are already down. Inflation hit nine percent at one
time under Biden. The average under Biden was five percent.
It's now two and a half, so he's cut inflation
in half already. Food prices are down. They'll point to
(02:59):
a couple of things, like beef prices. What about beef,
that's the reason for the beef prices being way up.
You can thank Joe Biden and the Democrats for that.
I don't know if you remember about about two years
ago they started this war on cows, claiming that cows
caused climate change. I forget how they came up with
that or how they explained it, but they went after
(03:21):
the cattle industry in the Green scheme, and as a result,
the cattle industry had to cut back the size of
herds and all that stuff. So they are less cattle,
less cows, less beef. Now they have to get that back.
It's just like with oil where they cut back drilling.
There was less oil out there and made the price
go up. And the same thing with cattle. We had
(03:42):
a lot less cattle than we usually have. So Trump
administration has changed all that. It'll take again, it takes
more than a few months. It's going to take a
year to get the cattle herds back up to where
they were, and that brings down the price. So it
was in Pennsylvania to do the rally to get the
message out about it for the ability. But wages are
up since he took office. Wages are up, prices are down.
(04:04):
You got to get that across, although it's tough because
fake news will just keep yelling that there's a terrible
affordability crisis. It really isn't. It's a lot better. I mean,
if you call this an affordability crisis, what did you
call two years ago when it was five times worse.
So now the other reason you do the rallies is
(04:28):
a president who's a great speaker, great performer. When he
gets elected. Now he goes into the White House and
he's in the White House and that's it, and he speaks,
it's in a room with a podium to people he knows.
And after a while, you start to get well, it's
your caged animal. You need to get out there. They
(04:50):
saw this with Reagan, and they realized they had to
get him out there. Let him give him a big audience,
give him thousands of people out there, Let him do rallies,
let him do speeches. It's like a great actor, performer, comedian, singer.
You gotta let him go out on stage. You gotta
let him get out there. So they started to do
these rallies for Reagan for no reason, just because he
needed it. He needed the energy from the crowds, needed
(05:11):
to get out of the White House, get back in
touch with the people. So every couple of weeks they
set up something for Reagan, usually close by so he
could get there fast and get home fast, and not California, nearby, Maryland, Pennsylvania.
So they need to do this with Trump. He needs
to get out there, get back on stage, get back
to performing for audiences. So you'll see more of these.
(05:34):
He did an hour and a half last night. I
know the fake news will tell you he's got no energy,
can't stay awake. He did an hour and a half,
a lot longer than he's supposed to do. He was
kind of all over the map, so he didn't. You know,
they say you gotta stay on message, and well, Trump's
not going to do that. The coverage of it, of course,
is bad because that's the way they do things. They
(05:56):
talked about affordability. He talked in great detail about what
he would do about it, and a couple of times
he made some jokes. So if you're watching the fake news,
all they would say is he ridiculed affordability. He made
fun of the problem of affordability. Was totally inaccurate portrayal
of what happened. So you'll see more of these rallies. Hey,
(06:17):
yesterday had some special elections. The interesting one was Miami
mayoral election, special election that had run off. The Democrat won.
Now that's unusual. Usually it's a Republican in Miami. It's
the first time a Democrat has won in thirty years
in Miami. So if you're watching the fake news, they'll
tell you this is a bad sign for the midterms.
(06:39):
This is a bad barometer what's going to happen in
the midterms. The fact that the Democrat won in Miami,
of all places where Democrats never win, this is a
bad sign for a well I think you got to
look at more detail at this race. Nobody showed up
to vote. There was no turnout. The total votes thirty
(06:59):
six thousand, which is unheard of. That's incredibly low. So
nobody showed up to vote. That's how the Democrat got in. Now,
as we've talked about here in New York, they got
the same problem in Miami. There really is not much
of a Republican party machine. One thing about the Democrats.
They have a strong party with infrastructure, lots of bodies,
(07:22):
and what they call the ground game, which is crucial.
Boots on the ground that get turnout, get people out
to the polls. You know, door knockers, people working phone banks,
people you know, knocking on doors. You need this kind
of stuff. Democrats have that same thing we have in
New York. Same problem in Miami. Republicans nothing public party
(07:44):
is there, three people, part time, nothing. Democrats have a
massive amount of people on the ground to get turnout.
So it was a tiny little turnout and Democrats want
so don't take it as much of a sign of anything.
Heymmy Kimmel. Last Night special guest David Letterman Is returned
to late night TV, and he looked like the old
(08:07):
Letterman with the suits and the tie and those shiny
socks and the loafers, and but still with the white beard.
You know, if you're a kid watching Jimmy Kimmel, you know,
you wouldn't know who Letterman is. And with that beard,
you must have thought, this is Santa Claus or something
coming up. Although if you're a kid, you're not going
to be watching Jimmy Kimmel. These late night shows. Average
(08:28):
age of the viewers is sixty three years old on
the late night shows now most of them just talk
about politics these late night shows. Instead of fun stuff.
It's all political and when you do that, you get
a much older audience. Average age of msnbcviewer I think
is sixty seven now. But Letterman on Kimmel, you know,
(08:49):
he was very big in late night TV on CBS,
in fact, beating Jane Leno at times. But then about
halfway through his run on CBS, Letterman started to get
political and it was pretty obvious he was a very
left wing guy, so he lost half his audience. If
you remember, he was doing very well on CBS against
the Tonight Show, and then as he got political and
(09:11):
went far to the left, he started to lose audience
and it went way down and started dropping and dropped
almost in half after a couple of years. So that
was the end, and that's when New it was time
to go, and CBS started looking around. But they made
the mistake of going with another left wing guy. You
want a guy in the middle. You know, if you
kind of make fun of everybody, you can do very well,
(09:32):
as Greg Guttfeld proved by getting bit. He has more
viewers than Kimmel, Fallon and Colbert combined every night. He's
the king of late night now. So but the point is,
Letterman came out and he went really crazy with the
Trump derangement syndrome. I mean really going after Trump with
the hysterical, hyperbolic, vicious attacks on him. Now, the other
(09:57):
thing he did, he came on and he congrat Jimmy Kimmel.
He says, you have just been re signed. You know,
they tried to throw you off the air, they tried
to get rid of you. They're pushing together get you fired.
Yet you just signed. You signed a big new contract.
And the audience cheered and went crazy for this big
new contract. Well, they're totally conning the audience Kimmel did
(10:19):
not get a big new contract, and he fact, he
got the most insulting contract literally in the history of
late night TV. Every contract to re sign your late
night host, it's always five years, always five years. In
case of a big, big name like a Carson or
in Oprah, it'd be a ten year contract. Kimmel was
(10:42):
re signed to a one year extension, which is the
worst insult. That's when you really don't like somebody or
you really don't think you're gonna keep a one year extension.
They tried to do that to Carson in ninety one,
and that's the reason he left. That's where he made
the decision it was time to go and quit because
he realized what an insult that is. So Kimmel has
(11:02):
not been resigned to a big new contract. The reason
they'll only do a one year extension. This is the
way they're not stuck with you, and if they have
to fire you tomorrow, they don't have to pay out
very much. They do only have to pay out for
eleven months or ten months, which they would do anyway.
So it's basically not even really a renewal, huge insult
to Kimmel. Letterman knows that and was just totally conning
(11:25):
the audience with his nonsense. So, hey, Brad Lander, you
know that is he was the controller, a real left
wing cook. He's no longer the controller. His term is
up and he's going to run for Congress. He's trying
to win Dan Goldman's seat. Now, this doesn't make any
(11:48):
difference to anybody. Dan Goldman also a far left kok
So if it's Lander Goldman, who cares. But Lander is
trying to run on something. Accomplishments. He tries to in
this commercial list his accomplishments. He doesn't have any, So
what could he possibly come up with? Well, he mentioned
the fact that he got arrested fighting ice. That's the accomplishment.
(12:12):
You remember, there was an ice proceeding going on in
a courtroom and Lander tried to burst in and they
told him he can't come in right now, and he
didn't listen, and he came in and they had to
arrest him and take him out. He was being disorderly.
He was totally guilty of disorderly conduct. Governor Hokeel was
called and ran right down to the courthouse and got
him released in her custody. But he's just a clown.
(12:35):
Just a silly guy, far left guy. He is one
of the reasons we have Mom Donnie as mayor. He
worked hard to get Mom Donnie elected. You remember, there
was a primary and Lander was running against Mom Donnie.
But then at some point he decided to join the
Mom Donnie team. They got together, they pulled their voters,
he endorsed Mom donn He got him through that primary,
(12:57):
and so they were very close. There were teammates on
this whole thing. And then something went wrong there and
Mom Donnie cut off Lander. After all this happened, you
figured Brad Lander bei a big part of the administration.
They had some kind of break up, some kind of fight,
and Mom Donnie cut Lander off completely. So apparently Lander
(13:21):
too represhensible even for Mom Donnie, so he was cut off.
Now he's running for this seat. He's a big blowhard showboat.
He's like a George Santos, kind of one stunt after another,
trying to get publicity. Problem with Dan Goldman. Besides being
a far left kook, he's kind of a quiet guy.
(13:41):
I don't think he can compete with all the stunts.
So who knows. Lander may have a shot against him.
You know, the most fascinating thing is Minnesota, the Somali
community where this fraud took place. Whenever, whenever Democratic leaders
start yelling about programs for the homeless, money seems to disappear.
(14:04):
You know, the great thing about the Green scheme, the
climate change, it was billions in contracts to hand out billions.
So that's why Democrats love that climate change green scheme stuff.
That's what it's called the Green steam scheme. You'd give
out massive contracts to companies in exchange for huge donations
and whatever you needed. Well, a lot of Democrats, especially
(14:27):
locally mayors and those sorts, I've realized the homeless scheme
is much better. The problem with the Green scheme when
you give out a contract, it's to a company in
Colorado that makes windmills or something, and they found with
the homeless, the money doesn't leave the community. You're still
giving out massive contracts, but you're giving them out right
(14:51):
in your neighborhood to people you know. So the money
comes back to you in a lot more ways and
a lot faster. So you remember, Bill de Blasio and
his wife set up this crazy program when he was
mayor called Thrive NYC. And it was helped the homeless.
And if you actually asked him, well, what exactly show
me the prom Well, it's yoga for homeless, Yoga for homeless. Literally,
(15:16):
that was one of the programs. So a billion dollars
was handed out. After it was all over, everybody looked
for the money or what happened, and they couldn't They
couldn't find it. Even a missus Deblasio and the husband
admitted they don't know where the money went. They can't
find it, they can't keep track of it. Well, you
got Minneapolis, you got the Somali leaders as elon Omars,
(15:40):
these types they set up the same thing. Programs are
the homeless. And if you were running a homeless type program,
they would give you money out of all these funds,
government funds, taxpayer funds, federal funds. And they started passing
out money and it's all gone. Nobody can find it.
And it looks like first a billion and they said
(16:00):
it's probably two billion. Now they think it might be
as much as eight billion has been stolen from taxpayers
has disappeared into this homeless scheme. And this is one
of the great great scandals of the news media. Fake news.
You'll notice you're not seeing any coverage of this. If
we had legitimate, actual media, if CBSABC, NBC were legitimate,
(16:23):
they'd be all over this. They would dispatch a whole
team of reporters, go to Minneapolis, don't leave until you
found out what happened, get to the bottom of this.
The New York Times, the Washington Post. They'd be sending reporters.
There's no coverage, no mention of it. They don't want
you to know about it. So this is what democrats do. Now,
they've got these homeless schemes where you get to hand
(16:46):
out money left and right. Now, Mom Donnie gets elected,
what's he talking about setting up a homeless program, setting
up a massive program to hand out massive contracts on
the So we had imagine it's the same exact scheme,
and that's what will happen here. And we've already got
some good homeless programs. He's canceling them because they basically
(17:08):
don't hand out massive contracts to anybody. So it's going
to be interesting to see what happens now, Mom Donnie
takes over. I know you're hearing everybody's fleeing. Everybody's leaving
New York with this not true. I'm sure you can
find somebody that's leaving New York. But the best thing
to do is look at real estate sales. As far
as apartments condos, sales are up up dramatically in the
(17:30):
last month. Now, sometimes that always happens year end, but
you had eight hundred and seventy six contracts signed the
last month. It'll take the super high end, very expensive,
multi zillion dollar apartment. You had nine contracts signed last week.
That's a lot. And the better things check the rental market.
That's people coming in. Rentals in New York City are
(17:54):
through the roof. In fact, right now it's very tough
to rent an apartment because rentals are going crazy, so
people are moving in despite Mom, Donnie. Anyway, we've got
a lot to get to. Well, we'll take some calls
in a moment. Eight hundred three two one zero seven
ten is the number. Eight hundred three two one zero
seven ten
