Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome back to the Mark Simone Show, seven tenor well
freezing cold today. So we're just talking about this a
moment ago, Marjorie Taylor Green. You remember that looney woman,
Marjorie Taylor Green. So she turned on Trump when on
(00:21):
Trump started attacking them, attacking him, attacking him. Trump attacked
her back, called her a trader. So she left politics. Now,
the reason she left politics is all the polling show
she couldn't win, She would not win reelection, so it
looks better just to resign, drop out, so you're not
going to run again. And you know, sixty Minutes would
(00:44):
never put a woman like that on the air, crazy
conspiracy theory, nutty. They would never put her on sixty minutes. Ever,
unless she starts attacking Trump. Then all of a sudden,
she's the big interview last night, the big superstar interview
of sixty Minutes. She's the main feature, an interview with
Marjorie Taylor Green. She's attacking Trump. They love her, they
(01:06):
put her on the ear. She did have one great
moment though, where Leslie Stall said to her, you know
our awful toxic politics, all the crazy partisan She said,
you She looked at Marjorie Taylor Green. You know, you
were a big part of the toxic politics. And good
(01:26):
for Marjorie Taylor Green. She is and you weren't. She said, Leslie,
you were as toxic as anybody politically, which is true.
I mean, Leslie Stall got caught in more lying fake news.
Remember the famous Trump interview where he talked about the
surveillance on his campaign and Leslie Stall said there's no
truth to that. Well, of course it turned out to
(01:47):
be absolutely true, and she looked ridiculous. But President Trump
went on truth social last night, really went after sixty minutes,
Paramount attacking them like crazy. He really unleashed on them.
He said, under Paramont's sixty minutes even got worse. It's
actually even worse now than before. Well, give them time
(02:10):
to cleaning house there. It's going to take a while.
It's gonna be done very slowly. They're going to get
rid of people one by one. Leslie Stall will be gone.
Gail King has already gone. I mean she's still on,
but she's leaving. All these people will be leaving. They'll
slowly clean up this mess. It's going to take a while.
Now Paramount is in the good graces of the Trump administration.
(02:32):
They don't want to lose that because they still want
to get Warner Brothers Discovery. Looks like Netflix won the
bidding war to take over Warner Brothers, which includes a
lot of stuff. It includes HBO, it includes all kinds.
One of the reasons people want this company is the
Warner Brothers Studio is actually the biggest movie studio in Hollywood,
(02:55):
and it's a very important major production facility. And if
your Netflix making a lot of movies and TV shows
and all that kind of stuff, so you could use
that big studio. Also, you could use HBO, HBO Max,
all that stuff as a platform. There's a lot of
other stuff. CNN means absolutely nothing in this It doesn't
(03:15):
make much money, it doesn't have any viewers. It's a
little tiny nothing thing in there. In fact, if they
could get rid of that and the deal, they would
Netflix doesn't want it. But part of the deal Warner
Brothers Discovery, if you buy the company, you got to
take CNN off our hands too. We don't want it either.
So although somebody buying this could maybe use it for something,
(03:39):
you get rid of all the CNN stuff, and it's
still a cable network that's on all the cable systems,
but even that's not of much value nowadays. So Netflix
has won the bidding ward. Now they may still not
get it. They may not get the deal because the
Trump administration would have to approve all this and they
could block it. There's all sorts of reasons to block
(03:59):
the Netflix deal. I mean good business reasons. It's too
much of a monopoly and it would create too big
of one streaming service, so it could be held up.
And that means Paramount, who was the second place bidder,
could just raise their numbers a little and get it.
So they're still in the running. But if Trump's mad
(04:21):
at them over sixty minutes, that's not going to help.
The price now is like thirty dollars a year. This
will go to thirty five dollars a year because you
can spin off a lot of these cable assets and
probably get another three four dollars a year. So don't
be so sure Netflix gets it, and don't be so
sure the price doesn't go up in the in the end. Hey,
(04:44):
the New York Jets, there are a lot of Jets
fans out there, die hard Jets fans, been going on
their whole life. They love the Jets. You could try
to reason with them. It's like people with Trump arrangement syndrome.
You can't reason with them. You know, it's the same
thing with the Mets. Mets fans, but every so often,
(05:08):
the Mets get pretty good every so often. The Mets
are in the playoffs in the World Series every so often.
But with the Jets, nothing good ever happens. If you're
going to be a Jets fan, you're just asking for
heartbreak and heartache. And so they just got eliminated from
the playoffs yesterday, eliminated from a playoffs every year for
(05:33):
fifteen years.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Now.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
If you look back at the history of the Jets,
you got Joe Namath, You've got great Jets teams, you
got some great So what's the problem. It's one guy.
It's Woody Johnson, who's a very nice guy. He's a
friend of mine. I like the guy, but he's the
worst owner in the history of sports. He is a
(05:58):
great guy in real life. He's a generous guy. He's
done a lot of public service. He's a good guy.
Woody Johnson, he has no business owning a football team.
He's not just a bad owner. Everybody agrees. I'm not
an expert. But you talk to all the greatest football
expert sports experts, they all agree he's the single worst
(06:19):
owner in the history of sports. This is the worst
franchise in the history of sports. There are people in
the professional sports football world saying that they should come
up with something in the NFL world where an owner
can be eliminated if he's that bad. In other words,
you know they're very careful who they give the team to.
(06:41):
To become an NFL owner is like the ultimate club
of the world to be accepted there. But there should
be some mechanism if a guy turns out to be
the worst owner on earth and it's hopeless, total disaster,
that the NFL can make him sell the team. There
should be something like that for a case like this.
This guy is so unbeloe believably horrendously bad as an owner. Now,
(07:03):
he bought the team for this is years ago for
about six hundred million. It's now worth I think it's
eight billion, but some are saying it's worth ten billion.
So if he's forced to sell, he would make like
a nine and a half million a billion nine and
a half billion dollar profit. So I mean, if you
(07:25):
forced him to sell it. It's a great thing for
him too. I mean you should be very happy. What's
the point of owning a team. Well, some people have
just really loved football in sports and they want to
they're really into it. Now this guy's that came. I
think it's more of a social thing. To be an
NFL team owner is quite an honor. It's the highest
(07:46):
honor there is for a billionaire. But also it's a
great thing. Every Sunday, you host everybody in your big,
huge suite, You invite fifty one hundred friends. It's quite
a thing. So now you might be saying, well, wait
a minute, maybe he really is a great, great lover
of football. I don't think so. I mean, if he
was that into football, he'd know what he was doing.
(08:08):
I mean, nobody is worse at running, so it's pretty
obvious he doesn't know anything about football. And he spent money.
He goes out and gets these great players, sometimes Aaron
Rodgers and others. But you'll notice whenever they get a
great player and bring them in, they ruin the guy.
I don't care how good a quarterback you are, you
are ruined when you come to the Jets. It's the
(08:31):
worst team in the history of sports. Just for the
good of New York, for the good of football. He's
got to sell the team. You gotta sell. I know,
it's maybe make some kind of deal. You can still
have the luxury suite every week and invite all your
friends or something, but you gotta sell the team. It
(08:55):
would be the only decent thing to do for Jets fans.
Put them out of there. Anyway, he's speaking of sports.
Don Mattingly did not make the Hall of Fame again
this year. That's like seven years in a row. He
doesn't get voted in or the Hall of Fame. That's
not right. So, mom, Donnie, his new plan now is
(09:17):
no more sweeps. Homeless sweeps. You know, under Eric Adams,
especially in the last year, you'll notice you don't see
a lot of homeless peeple all. You'll see one here
and there, but you don't see homeless camps. You don't
see any of that. They've been cleaning it up. It's
a great, great plan, mom, Donnie is going to eliminate that.
He's going to allow the homeless encampments. Being a crazy
(09:38):
left wing socialist.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
The issue with the encampment sweeps is that they are
simply pushing New Yorkers who are living in the cold
to another place where they will live in the cold.
In three hundred and sixty five days of twenty twenty four,
this administration did not connect a single New Yorker affected
by these sweeps with permanent housing. That is a failure.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Yeah, so that could be, but of course that's not.
There's two problems. One, you want to do something about
the homeless, get them some place to live. But the
other problem is you want to protect the area where
the camp is. If it's a Union Square or if
it's a wherever it is, if it's thirty fourth and fifth,
you don't want a homeless camp, but you want to
(10:21):
protect the neighborhood, the block, the buildings. You get rid
of the homeless encampment. You've got to get rid of it.
Otherwise you ruin the neighborhood. You do tremendous damage to businesses, apartments,
economic damage. It creates chaos. It's pretty obvious. And he
says that the homeless were never connected to permanent house.
Well that doesn't you know, just get them off the street,
(10:42):
find them someplace. It doesn't have to be permanent. You
can work on that later.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
If you are not connecting homeless New Yorkers to the
housing that they so desperately need, then you cannot deem
anything you're doing to be a success. We are going
to take an approach that understands its mission is connecting
those New Yorkers to housing, whether it's supportive housing, whether
it's rental housing, whatever kind of housing it is.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Well, see, no, not really. Job number one is clean
up the street, clean up the chaos. That was part
of the plan. At some point you could find them
permanent housing. You know, you could say, well what about
the shelters. First of all, clean up the shelters. You know,
remember Deblasio would inspect the shelter and he'd say, well,
people can't go here. It's got rodents, it's got crime. Well,
(11:27):
as Juliani showed, you can fix that. You come in
the next day with an army of exterminators, get rid
of the rodents, You come in with a bunch of security,
and get rid of the You can do that. Now
they find. The other thing is the homeless will not
go into the shelters. They won't stay in the shelters.
Why because you're not allowed to use drugs. You're not
(11:48):
allowed to drink in there. Now, most of the homeless,
they're vast majority. It's not about economics, it's about addiction.
They're addicts drugs, alcohol, crack whatever. That's why they're out there. So,
but Adams is pretty good with his sweep the streets.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
If he's stating he's no longer going to implement a
smart policy on our part, New Yorkers are about to see
the repercussions of that.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Yeah, now again, why Democrats are incapable of learning anything.
They've done this in other cities where they don't do
the homelessweeps, they leave the encampments. About twenty other cities
have tried this every single time. It's absolute disaster. So
you've tested it twenty times. It's a total disaster. How
(12:34):
could you not learn anything from the tests? But that's
Democrats left wing. They don't learn. You know, even germs learn.
Germs actually, you know, they learn. They changed. They you know,
you get a virus that mutates, they know how to
mutate change. Democrats forget it. They can't do it.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
We stated it was inhumane for people to live on
the streets, human waste, drug path finalia, a schizophrenic bipolar
living on our subways, living in our streets, we say no,
you deserve to be inside with care. Now, if he's
stating he's no longer going to implement a smart policy
on our pad, New Yorkers are going to see the
(13:18):
repercussions of that.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Yeah, but you can't tell Mam Donnie anything. It's impossible.
But Adams has actually done a good job. Now, Randy Mastro,
he's the deputy first deputy mayor, which means he really
runs everything. He runs city, all top guy, Randy Mastro.
He was first deputy mayor under Rudy Giuliani. So he's
That's one reason you saw everything change a year ago
(13:42):
when Randy Mastro came in. That's how everything got better
and better and better. But he's put in his resident
resignation for New Year's Eve. He leaves because the next day,
New Year's Day, Mam Donnie takes over the next day.
How bad will it get? I don't know. You know
(14:04):
one thing about Mom Donnie. Like a lot of these guys,
and I remember, he's very, very very Deblasio. Like Deblasio.
You don't remember this, but he ran as a socialist.
He ran with all the same crazy, kooky socialism, left
wing stuff. But as soon as he got elected, he
started cozying up to every billionaire in the city. Deblasio's
(14:25):
campaign was anti billionaire about it. Remember it was about
there's two New York's, one for the zillionaires, one for
everybody else. We got to go after these billionaires. And
as soon as he got elected, Deblasio did go after
the billionaires, but in a different way. It's all in
my own eyes. Anytime he saw one of these billionaires,
he'd go right up to them, Hey, how are you
(14:46):
you have my cell number? No, let me give you
my cell number. They knew what that meant. They meant
it means you can call him anytime you need anything.
He'll take care of you. And they know what it means.
It means also, a guy's going to call you every
couple of weeks and want some money donation. That's normal.
The bzillionaire will get a call. Can you do fifty? Yeah,
(15:08):
I can do fifty. It means fifty thousand, All right,
We'll tell you where to send it, and they'd give
you the name of a pack they want you to
donate it too. And every couple of months you do
that and then whatever you needed, something you could call. Well,
Mom Donnie has already started down this road. Now he
claims it's for his transition team, but he went around
(15:31):
Mom Donnie and company, coosing up to all the billionaires.
He wanted to raise some money for the transition team.
And believe it or not, in the last couple of
weeks he raised four million from these billionaires. He's been
all over them and he's continued to do it there.
He's been doing these private fundraisers with billionaires. There was
one in Michael I can't pronounce this guy's name, billionaire
(15:56):
ceo crypto guy held a fundraiser and his village home.
The next day, Mom Donnie was in a private tribee
to a Tribeca home where the Hunt oil eras Lee
Hunt Hendricks, hosted another big fundraiser for him. Two uptown events,
one Lower east Side. These are all zillionaires, billionaires, thousand
(16:19):
dollars a ticket, millions raised from these donors. Now, what
does the transition team need so much money for? Well,
as they said, most of the funds will go toward
office operations, which is fine, but that's more like forty
thousand to operate the office. You don't need four million
to do that, you really don't. So they were raising
(16:42):
millions and millions. That's a good sign. That's a good sign.
It means he's even more Deblasio like than we thought. Hey,
once again, here's the real estate report. Sales are booming
in New York. Don't think everybody's leaving. In the last month,
eight hundred and sixty nine contracts have been signed in
the real high end. The super luxury four million dollar
(17:04):
plus apartment sales were very strong. Just last week, forty
one contracts were signed. That's a lot shows buyer confidence.
This is all since the election. Many skyscrapers are now
being going to be built. As I mentioned, JP Morgan
Chase just opened this four billion dollar unbelievable, unbelievable skyscraper
(17:25):
where ten thousand work. They're now looking for at least one,
maybe two new skyscrapers. They're going to build nearby on
the corner of fifty second and Park. They're tearing down
like four buildings there to build a ninety story skyscraper.
So these big real estate guys, they got a lot
of faith in New York City and these are that's
(17:46):
how they got to be billionaires. They're always right about
this stuff. Hey, well, take some calls. Next eight hundred
three to two one zero seven ten is the number
eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten
Welcome back to the Mark Simone Show, seven tenor well
freezing cold today. So we're just talking about this a
moment ago, Marjorie Taylor Green. You remember that looney woman,
Marjorie Taylor Green. So she turned on Trump when on
(00:21):
Trump started attacking them, attacking him, attacking him. Trump attacked
her back, called her a trader. So she left politics. Now,
the reason she left politics is all the polling show
she couldn't win, She would not win reelection, so it
looks better just to resign, drop out, so you're not
going to run again. And you know, sixty Minutes would
(00:44):
never put a woman like that on the air, crazy
conspiracy theory, nutty. They would never put her on sixty minutes. Ever,
unless she starts attacking Trump. Then all of a sudden,
she's the big interview last night, the big superstar interview
of sixty Minutes. She's the main feature, an interview with
Marjorie Taylor Green. She's attacking Trump. They love her, they
(01:06):
put her on the ear. She did have one great
moment though, where Leslie Stall said to her, you know
our awful toxic politics, all the crazy partisan She said,
you She looked at Marjorie Taylor Green. You know, you
were a big part of the toxic politics. And good
(01:26):
for Marjorie Taylor Green. She is and you weren't. She said, Leslie,
you were as toxic as anybody politically, which is true.
I mean, Leslie Stall got caught in more lying fake news.
Remember the famous Trump interview where he talked about the

Paramount attacking them like crazy. He really unleashed on them.
He said, under Paramont's sixty minutes even got worse. It's
actually even worse now than before. Well, give them time
(02:10):
to cleaning house there. It's going to take a while.
It's gonna be done very slowly. They're going to get
rid of people one by one. Leslie Stall will be gone.
Gail King has already gone. I mean she's still on,
but she's leaving. All these people will be leaving. They'll
slowly clean up this mess. It's going to take a while.
Now Paramount is in the good graces of the Trump administration.
(02:32):
They don't want to lose that because they still want
to get Warner Brothers Discovery. Looks like Netflix won the
bidding war to take over Warner Brothers, which includes a
lot of stuff. It includes HBO, it includes all kinds.
One of the reasons people want this company is the
Warner Brothers Studio is actually the biggest movie studio in Hollywood,
(02:55):
and it's a very important major production facility. And if
your Netflix making a lot of movies and TV shows
and all that kind of stuff, so you could use
that big studio. Also, you could use HBO, HBO Max,
all that stuff as a platform. There's a lot of

So although somebody buying this could maybe use it for something,
(03:39):
you get rid of all the CNN stuff, and it's
still a cable network that's on all the cable systems,
but even that's not of much value nowadays. So Netflix
has won the bidding ward. Now they may still not

the Netflix deal. I mean good business reasons. It's too
much of a monopoly and it would create too big
of one streaming service, so it could be held up.
And that means Paramount, who was the second place bidder,
could just raise their numbers a little and get it.
So they're still in the running. But if Trump's mad
(04:21):
at them over sixty minutes, that's not going to help.
The price now is like thirty dollars a year. This
will go to thirty five dollars a year because you
can spin off a lot of these cable assets and
probably get another three four dollars a year. So don't
be so sure Netflix gets it, and don't be so
sure the price doesn't go up in the in the end. Hey,
(04:44):
the New York Jets, there are a lot of Jets
fans out there, die hard Jets fans, been going on
their whole life. They love the Jets. You could try
to reason with them. It's like people with Trump arrangement syndrome.
You can't reason with them. You know, it's the same
thing with the Mets. Mets fans, but every so often,
(05:08):
the Mets get pretty good every so often. The Mets
are in the playoffs in the World Series every so often.
But with the Jets, nothing good ever happens. If you're
going to be a Jets fan, you're just asking for
heartbreak and heartache. And so they just got eliminated from
the playoffs yesterday, eliminated from a playoffs every year for
(05:33):
fifteen years.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Now.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
If you look back at the history of the Jets,
you got Joe Namath, You've got great Jets teams, you
got some great So what's the problem. It's one guy.
It's Woody Johnson, who's a very nice guy. He's a
friend of mine. I like the guy, but he's the
worst owner in the history of sports. He is a
(05:58):
great guy in real life. He's a generous guy. He's
done a lot of public service. He's a good guy.
Woody Johnson, he has no business owning a football team.

just really loved football in sports and they want to
they're really into it. Now this guy's that came. I
think it's more of a social thing. To be an
NFL team owner is quite an honor. It's the highest
(07:46):
honor there is for a billionaire. But also it's a
great thing. Every Sunday, you host everybody in your big,

I don't care how good a quarterback you are, you
are ruined when you come to the Jets. It's the
(08:31):
worst team in the history of sports. Just for the
good of New York, for the good of football. He's
got to sell the team. You gotta sell. I know,
it's maybe make some kind of deal. You can still
have the luxury suite every week and invite all your
friends or something, but you gotta sell the team. It
(08:55):
would be the only decent thing to do for Jets fans.
Put them out of there. Anyway, he's speaking of sports.
Don Mattingly did not make the Hall of Fame again
this year. That's like seven years in a row. He
doesn't get voted in or the Hall of Fame. That's
not right. So, mom, Donnie, his new plan now is
(09:17):
no more sweeps. Homeless sweeps. You know, under Eric Adams,
especially in the last year, you'll notice you don't see
a lot of homeless peeple all. You'll see one here

a great, great plan, mom, Donnie is going to eliminate that.
He's going to allow the homeless encampments. Being a crazy

Speaker 2 (09:40):
The issue with the encampment sweeps is that they are

In three hundred and sixty five days of twenty twenty four,

Well that doesn't you know, just get them off the street,
(10:42):
find them someplace. It doesn't have to be permanent. You
can work on that later.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
If you are not connecting homeless New Yorkers to the
housing that they so desperately need, then you cannot deem
anything you're doing to be a success. We are going
to take an approach that understands its mission is connecting
those New Yorkers to housing, whether it's supportive housing, whether
it's rental housing, whatever kind of housing it is.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Well, see, no, not really. Job number one is clean
up the street, clean up the chaos. That was part
of the plan. At some point you could find them
permanent housing. You know, you could say, well what about
the shelters. First of all, clean up the shelters. You know,
remember Deblasio would inspect the shelter and he'd say, well,
people can't go here. It's got rodents, it's got crime. Well,
(11:27):
as Juliani showed, you can fix that. You come in
the next day with an army of exterminators, get rid
of the rodents, You come in with a bunch of security,
and get rid of the You can do that. Now
they find. The other thing is the homeless will not
go into the shelters. They won't stay in the shelters.
Why because you're not allowed to use drugs. You're not
(11:48):
allowed to drink in there. Now, most of the homeless,
they're vast majority. It's not about economics, it's about addiction.
They're addicts drugs, alcohol, crack whatever. That's why they're out there. So,
but Adams is pretty good with his sweep the streets.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
If he's stating he's no longer going to implement a
smart policy on our part, New Yorkers are about to see
the repercussions of that.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Yeah, now again, why Democrats are incapable of learning anything.
They've done this in other cities where they don't do
the homelessweeps, they leave the encampments. About twenty other cities
have tried this every single time. It's absolute disaster. So
you've tested it twenty times. It's a total disaster. How
(12:34):
could you not learn anything from the tests? But that's
Democrats left wing. They don't learn. You know, even germs learn.
Germs actually, you know, they learn. They changed. They you know,
you get a virus that mutates, they know how to
mutate change. Democrats forget it. They can't do it.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
We stated it was inhumane for people to live on
the streets, human waste, drug path finalia, a schizophrenic bipolar
living on our subways, living in our streets, we say no,
you deserve to be inside with care. Now, if he's
stating he's no longer going to implement a smart policy
on our pad, New Yorkers are going to see the
(13:18):
repercussions of that.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Yeah, but you can't tell Mam Donnie anything. It's impossible.
But Adams has actually done a good job. Now, Randy Mastro,
he's the deputy first deputy mayor, which means he really
runs everything. He runs city, all top guy, Randy Mastro.
He was first deputy mayor under Rudy Giuliani. So he's
That's one reason you saw everything change a year ago
(13:42):
when Randy Mastro came in. That's how everything got better
and better and better. But he's put in his resident
resignation for New Year's Eve. He leaves because the next day,
New Year's Day, Mam Donnie takes over the next day.
How bad will it get? I don't know. You know
(14:04):
one thing about Mom Donnie. Like a lot of these guys,
and I remember, he's very, very very Deblasio. Like Deblasio.
You don't remember this, but he ran as a socialist.
He ran with all the same crazy, kooky socialism, left
wing stuff. But as soon as he got elected, he
started cozying up to every billionaire in the city. Deblasio's
(14:25):
campaign was anti billionaire about it. Remember it was about
there's two New York's, one for the zillionaires, one for
everybody else. We got to go after these billionaires. And
as soon as he got elected, Deblasio did go after
the billionaires, but in a different way. It's all in
my own eyes. Anytime he saw one of these billionaires,
he'd go right up to them, Hey, how are you
(14:46):
you have my cell number? No, let me give you
my cell number. They knew what that meant. They meant
it means you can call him anytime you need anything.
He'll take care of you. And they know what it means.
It means also, a guy's going to call you every
couple of weeks and want some money donation. That's normal.
The bzillionaire will get a call. Can you do fifty? Yeah,
(15:08):
I can do fifty. It means fifty thousand, All right,
We'll tell you where to send it, and they'd give
you the name of a pack they want you to
donate it too. And every couple of months you do
that and then whatever you needed, something you could call. Well,
Mom Donnie has already started down this road. Now he
claims it's for his transition team, but he went around
(15:31):
Mom Donnie and company, coosing up to all the billionaires.
He wanted to raise some money for the transition team.
And believe it or not, in the last couple of
weeks he raised four million from these billionaires. He's been
all over them and he's continued to do it there.
He's been doing these private fundraisers with billionaires. There was
one in Michael I can't pronounce this guy's name, billionaire
(15:56):
ceo crypto guy held a fundraiser and his village home.
The next day, Mom Donnie was in a private tribee
to a Tribeca home where the Hunt oil eras Lee
Hunt Hendricks, hosted another big fundraiser for him. Two uptown events,
one Lower east Side. These are all zillionaires, billionaires, thousand
(16:19):
dollars a ticket, millions raised from these donors. Now, what
does the transition team need so much money for? Well,
as they said, most of the funds will go toward
office operations, which is fine, but that's more like forty
thousand to operate the office. You don't need four million
to do that, you really don't. So they were raising
(16:42):
millions and millions. That's a good sign. That's a good sign.
It means he's even more Deblasio like than we thought. Hey,
once again, here's the real estate report. Sales are booming
in New York. Don't think everybody's leaving. In the last month,
eight hundred and sixty nine contracts have been signed in
the real high end. The super luxury four million dollar
(17:04):
plus apartment sales were very strong. Just last week, forty
one contracts were signed. That's a lot shows buyer confidence.
This is all since the election. Many skyscrapers are now
being going to be built. As I mentioned, JP Morgan
Chase just opened this four billion dollar unbelievable, unbelievable skyscraper
(17:25):
where ten thousand work. They're now looking for at least one,
maybe two new skyscrapers. They're going to build nearby on
the corner of fifty second and Park. They're tearing down
like four buildings there to build a ninety story skyscraper.
So these big real estate guys, they got a lot
of faith in New York City and these are that's
(17:46):
how they got to be billionaires. They're always right about
this stuff. Hey, well, take some calls. Next eight hundred
three to two one zero seven ten is the number
eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten
