00:01:37.380 Hello, everybody.

00:01:39.800 How are we doing on a beautiful Sunday?

00:01:42.880 Early evening, especially with the sun still out for most of us.

00:01:48.340 And that's always nice.

00:01:49.920 Hope you had a great weekend.

00:01:51.700 I hope we're finishing up a great weekend for everybody out there.

00:01:55.740 A lot of fun.

00:01:56.760 Summer, you know, you've got to take advantage of it.

00:02:00.220 Even if it's raining out or what have you, you don't get those days back.

00:02:05.720 That's for sure.

00:02:07.060 And you all know what happens right after Labor Day.

00:02:11.260 It's Labor Day.

00:02:13.260 You've got Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's.

00:02:19.980 you know what the hell i'm talking about people i know you do it just goes right on by

00:02:27.900 and uh you don't know what the hell to do with yourself so relax take it easy enjoy

00:02:35.460 your summer weekends they're very limited but uh a lot of things happening and i feel i should

00:02:42.800 speak about them because that's my job and uh i did get oh my god i'm not going to go into it

00:02:51.360 like i did last time but once again i was stuck in new york when i was there uh visiting doing a

00:02:57.220 show uh at the studios up in new york city and then i was going to leave tuesday morning i wound

00:03:04.060 up leaving wednesday evening i had to get a hotel and then i had to stay in the uh the delta lounge

00:03:11.100 at LaGuardia there are worse places you can be airports have gotten better over the course of

00:03:17.260 the years the flight scheduling doesn't seem to have gotten better the cancellations and the

00:03:23.120 delays and whatnot but if you had to spend 12 hours in an airport which I did I got to the

00:03:32.260 airport at noon thinking I had a flight out uh that afternoon and my flight was delayed until

00:03:40.180 8 30 p.m and back in what i like to call the day that was a death sentence just sitting in an

00:03:50.580 airport first of all there was nothing to do you just kind of sat at the gate in the very uncomfortable

00:03:57.000 seats but uh with of course the the various airlines having their lounges but even if you

00:04:03.940 can't get in even if you're so low on the social totem pole that you can't get into one of the

00:04:12.800 lounges uh the bars and restaurants in airports now are it's like a mall you're at the mall you

00:04:20.380 ever have to sit down at the mall get something to eat at the food court whatever that's kind of

00:04:26.100 what it's like uh now in the airport doesn't make it any better that they're delaying flights

00:04:33.120 something is amiss something is dreadfully wrong because i have never had flights delayed and

00:04:42.940 canceled as much as i have uh this summer then i've flown during summers hot summers whatever

00:04:49.420 you want to say oh it's the weather it's this it's uh no no something else is up i think uh

00:04:58.480 My best guess is somehow incompetence plays a giant part.

00:05:04.560 I think that's playing a huge part in every aspect of our lives these days

00:05:10.320 and why nothing gets done.

00:05:13.840 If it gets done, it's not done right.

00:05:16.900 The delays, it just seems like there's incompetence everywhere,

00:05:22.160 and you certainly didn't want to see it in the airline industry,

00:05:25.120 especially when it comes to the actual flying of the planes and maintaining them.

00:05:31.060 But even as far as scheduling goes, the baggage people, the counter people,

00:05:37.500 the people at the gate doing the announcements that I swear to you,

00:05:41.400 I have not gotten one of those in years that has actually spoken English.

00:05:46.460 You cannot understand what they're trying to tell you.

00:05:49.440 And I would gather it's pretty important.

00:05:51.640 I would gather the information that they're trying to convey to the people

00:05:55.620 taking that flight, eh, probably important.

00:05:59.460 And you just cannot understand what they're saying.

00:06:03.100 And I put that right in with incompetence.

00:06:07.800 So delays and everything, it's got to be.

00:06:11.900 I think it's staff shortages.

00:06:14.360 I think it's the DEI hiring that we saw in record numbers under the Biden puppet regime, whoever was running that.

00:06:25.920 Of course, it really kicked off during Obama.

00:06:29.540 And there are people in positions that are not competent to do their job.

00:06:36.400 And it goes right down the line.

00:06:39.700 It's the domino effect.

00:06:41.120 You know, one person doesn't do their job.

00:06:45.060 It affects the next person.

00:06:47.420 And before you know it, there you go.

00:06:50.560 You're two hours late, your flight, three hours late, canceled.

00:06:54.920 Now you're getting a hotel somewhere. 1.00

00:06:56.780 Oh, pain in the ass. 0.99

00:06:59.300 But that seems to be where we're at right now. 1.00

00:07:03.420 And, you know, people go through it.

00:07:05.920 I'm not special.

00:07:07.860 I know some people tell me I am.

00:07:10.080 But I don't think I'm very special.

00:07:13.220 800-848-9222.

00:07:16.960 800-848-9222.

00:07:19.760 If you want to give a call and contribute to this very program this Sunday evening.

00:07:27.100 I'm going to start off with a story that's pretty new.

00:07:30.280 I think this just kicked off a couple hours before the show started.

00:07:35.840 It seems Donald Trump has posted something on his social media, and it's gone to all of the various social medias.

00:07:46.760 And some people, it's amazing, some people love it, some people hate it.

00:07:52.580 Wow, so unique for a Donald Trump post.

00:07:56.560 but uh he's posting about korea both of them the north and the south of the koreas

00:08:05.420 and uh here's what he says based on my very good relationship with kim jong-un of north korea

00:08:12.960 i am not happy with the fact that the united states has long ago agreed to participate in

00:08:19.180 joint military exercises with south korea and uh of course we've done these these forever

00:08:25.420 forever so uh another one's coming up and trump's got a little problem with it i continue with

00:08:34.100 donald trump's post these exercises are not only costly which much of the cost paid for by the

00:08:41.040 united states of america as usual he puts that in there but send a signal that is totally

00:08:47.500 inappropriate and hostile to a country that as long as donald j trump has been president

00:08:53.480 has been unthreatening and respectful.

00:08:59.060 Therefore, and based on the fact that it is too late to cancel,

00:09:03.980 I have instructed Secretary of War Peter Hegseth

00:09:07.060 to substantially reduce the joint military exercises.

00:09:11.120 While somewhat unrelated, I recently asked the President of South Korea

00:09:16.720 if they would like to join us in the denuclearization of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

00:09:22.700 they said no thanks thank you for your attention to this matter president donald j trump all right

00:09:32.180 all right a couple of things going on here a couple of obvious things going on here

00:09:39.420 trump's pissed trump's pissed that uh south korea did not want to join in

00:09:47.360 uh with anything funding uh material goods uh whatever it was to support

00:09:56.360 donald trump's uh war on iran trying to denuclearize iran so uh he's looking at a way

00:10:05.940 to stick it to him they're sticking it jerry looking for a way to stick it to him and this

00:10:12.040 seems to be it uh the thing is it gets people a little shaky when donald trump is extolling his

00:10:21.900 his accolades to kim jong-un the north korean tyrant the little baby huey chubby chubby bunny 0.96

00:10:35.480 guy that runs um that crazy horrible tyrannical nation of of a population that is petrified 1.00

00:10:46.820 uh does not have some of the most basic of needs and uh can't speak their mind

00:10:53.320 right now liberals are going isn't that trump's you america you just described yeah exactly sure

00:11:00.740 but we look at it and uh yeah it's trump kind of turning the screws on south korea

00:11:08.600 and talking up kim jong-un is a little a little wacky he did go over there we remember during

00:11:17.200 his first term he went over there and they had chit chats and they looked adorable uh walking

00:11:23.560 through the uh no man's land the the 38th parallel but uh it's it's kind of a weird look

00:11:35.280 i understand because like i said he just wants to get back at uh at south korea for not supporting

00:11:42.260 his iranian uh denuclearization as he says but there is something here a little more than just

00:11:54.800 trump trying to get at somebody and pay back kind of a thing my name is shannon maldonado i'm the

00:13:29.640 This has been 76 years.

00:13:34.600 76 years.

00:13:36.400 America has had to stand there 0.84

00:13:40.000 and face North Korea 0.89

00:13:44.440 as the protector of South Korea 0.91

00:13:49.560 I can understand this for a while

00:13:53.960 maybe a decade or two

00:13:56.920 76 years though

00:14:01.140 it's really time

00:14:03.780 to start cutting off this support that America gave nations

00:14:10.000 during the peak of the Cold War.

00:14:14.220 The big fear that communism was going to, the domino theory,

00:14:19.200 one falls, they all fall.

00:14:20.920 We're going to lose all of Indochina.

00:14:23.640 And you could understand them feeling that way back then. 0.91

00:14:29.820 But we live in a totally different world. 0.98

00:14:32.380 there are more damn commies here in america than there are overseas that are threatening us 0.97

00:14:38.400 the threat of communism is right here with the democrats more so than north korea uh getting 0.99

00:14:46.340 into south korea at any time but uh let me take a quick break and we'll come back and uh talk about

00:14:52.980 this because uh as i see it it's time to let the uh little brother uh defend himself uh here and

00:15:00.600 other places back in a moment it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple podcast network

00:15:08.440 hey it is the anthony cumia show and we're starting off this evening talking about

00:15:15.800 trump telling south korea uh we don't want to really play with you we got these military

00:15:21.680 exercises coming up and trump said yeah you know what well we we can't cancel totally but we're

00:15:28.960 really going to scale this thing back uh it's not going to be one of those things that shows north

00:15:35.000 korea like don't f with us look at what we can do uh i predict uh i don't know a couple of jet

00:15:41.780 skis and a couple of soldiers with the ar-15s on them something like that but nothing that we've

00:15:48.840 seen in the past and uh the people are angry some people are very angry but these are the usual

00:15:53.800 suspects they don't like anything donald trump does one of them captain mark kelly you know

00:16:01.140 the astronaut guy and uh he doesn't like anything donald trump does that's for sure

00:16:08.020 so of course trump put out this statement and uh captain kelly says north and south korea are

00:16:17.140 still technically at war which is insane to me he didn't write that part i'm just commenting

00:16:23.000 The fact that these two countries are still in a state of war, technically, is mental.

00:16:31.340 But he says, North and South Korea are technically at war.

00:16:34.780 Our ability to defend our ally against North Korea is because our forces are well-trained

00:16:42.080 and able to coordinate with the South Koreans, hollowing out these joint exercises is short-sighted and a mistake.

00:16:50.680 really captain kelly uh what what it's every year every year for 76 years this has gone on

00:17:05.340 uh and what is it doing is it helping south korea to become more independent as far as

00:17:14.920 their uh protection goes i don't think so he they've had the big bully uh united states behind

00:17:24.260 them forever do you understand how long ago that is 76 years look at uh footage from the korean war

00:17:32.180 it's in black and white for god's sake the tv show mash if we were supporting south korea

00:17:40.540 militarily since the show mash ended it would still be too long that's still too too many years

00:17:50.400 and uh 76 years so uh i'm of the school of thought that we've given them quite enough

00:17:59.480 and here's another thing that people might not like hearing but uh let's say south korea

00:18:08.040 fell to the north somehow they invade somehow they win uh and and i'm hearing this online

00:18:17.200 because i i put a couple of these comments up uh on social media and uh they're like well russia

00:18:22.860 and china are the ones you got to worry about they're the ones that'll join up with north 0.59

00:18:28.020 korea and take over south korea it's like shut up shut up what is this the 50s the 60s 0.60

00:18:36.680 first of all china is so dedicated to capitalism right now they're barely communists they like 0.91

00:18:49.840 you know telling their people they can't do what they want to do and restricting people they love

00:18:54.960 that part of communism but as far as making money in the world market they're the biggest

00:19:01.340 capitalist deal you'll ever see and war is a dirty expensive business especially when you're

00:19:09.060 waging it against a western ally uh they would never they would never do that they've wanted

00:19:17.440 to go into taiwan for how long they won't even do that and technically you know could be theirs

00:19:22.840 they're going to just storm uh into uh south korea and take over ain't gonna happen and russia stop

00:19:31.000 stop they stopped caring a long time ago and i think their their dance card is a little full

00:19:37.380 right now with ukraine ukraine just sent a hell of a lot of drones and just blew up a bunch of

00:19:44.700 stuff and a bunch of people that's all we really know about what's going on on over there you just

00:19:49.960 cover the whole war by saying yeah drones went and blew up a bunch of stuff i don't even know

00:19:55.100 whose side drones but uh i digress so even if that happened yes there are plenty of companies

00:20:04.200 business-wise we do with uh with south korea uh it would be devastating economically in some ways

00:20:13.380 but the the only reason we protect south korea or protected them in the first place

00:20:22.900 was this fear of the communist takeover of Indochina

00:20:29.060 and the Far East.

00:20:35.160 You know, we were petrified of that. 0.96

00:20:38.240 That's why we were in Vietnam.

00:20:41.100 And I'd like to bring up that point.

00:20:43.320 Look at Vietnam.

00:20:45.060 Almost 60,000 American soldiers dead, 0.91

00:20:48.920 and they wound up taking it anyway.

00:20:52.900 The North took South Vietnam, and it was over. 0.50

00:20:56.500 Now they're Vietnam. 0.91

00:20:59.240 And you could take a flight over there, and you could buy things,

00:21:03.740 and they do business, import-export business with everyone on the face of the earth.

00:21:11.000 You could go there and take a tour of battlefields from the Vietnam War,

00:21:17.800 a tour of some of the tunnels that the tunnel rats would have to go in that's vietnam now

00:21:24.580 and you know why because we didn't decide that we were going to stick around for 76 years

00:21:32.380 and make sure north vietnam didn't get into south vietnam and and take over

00:21:38.680 and early on you know they could have done that but it just got to be too much we're leaving

00:21:47.740 we bugged out and in no time

00:21:50.760 the North streamed over into South Vietnam

00:21:52.980 and it was over Johnny

00:21:54.480 it's over Johnny

00:21:56.080 and

00:21:58.000 instead of doing that in Korea

00:22:01.240 we stayed there 0.97

00:22:03.300 and protected them 0.78

00:22:05.020 from being taken by the North

00:22:06.860 what does it matter right now

00:22:08.980 what does it matter

00:22:10.600 South Korea

00:22:13.100 got overrun 1.00

00:22:13.780 let's get their people

00:22:16.120 They're tech people, scientists, things like that. 0.86

00:22:19.360 We'll bring them over here and we'll just set up shop of whatever they were doing over there.

00:22:23.640 We'll do it over here now. 0.87

00:22:25.200 Like the end of World War II with the German scientists. 0.81

00:22:31.000 The fact that 76 years later we are still over there spending unbelievable amounts of tax money, 0.87

00:22:39.540 protecting them from what?

00:22:41.460 From what?

00:22:43.340 Kim Jong-un?

00:22:44.380 holy jeepers let's talk to a tom tom in pennsylvania what's up tom 0.80

00:22:51.460 ed man oh how you doing pert good all right there so uh yeah uh so the korean war my uh

00:22:59.720 my uncle was in battle with chosin are you familiar yes i watch a lot of those documentaries

00:23:05.620 pretty brutal yeah he never spoke about it and you know very very quiet man you know he's dead now

00:23:12.780 But, you know, my other uncle died in Vietnam.

00:23:17.640 So, hence, my mom said she would never speak to me if I – I was 18 when 9-11 happened, and I wanted to join up.

00:23:24.240 And she said, don't you ever dare do that.

00:23:26.500 Yeah.

00:23:28.520 Yeah, I'm sure she was pretty sensitive at the time.

00:23:29.920 So, yeah, now the software fails, you know, so it is where it is.

00:23:33.700 A little safer.

00:23:34.820 Yeah, no, it's – I agree with everything you're saying.

00:23:38.220 You know, we've got to babysit what?

00:23:39.960 They make Samsungs?

00:23:41.340 Well, whatever.

00:23:42.220 I mean, I'm talking to you on Samsung right now.

00:23:44.260 Yeah.

00:23:44.880 Let him go.

00:23:46.260 You know what?

00:23:46.640 You fight your own battles. 1.00

00:23:48.100 Enough is shit. 1.00

00:23:49.060 Yeah. 1.00

00:23:49.560 And, uh-oh, you're cursed. 0.93

00:23:50.780 You said a bad word.

00:23:51.680 Don't use that naughty language, Tom, because we are on FCC regulated.

00:23:57.160 It's like North Korea on the radio still.

00:23:59.660 It's like Kim Jong-un is keeping us from saying what we want to say, like the dreaded S-word.

00:24:04.760 I apologize.

00:24:05.160 Oh, I beg for mercy.

00:24:07.280 To the camp with you, my friend.

00:24:10.280 Yeah.

00:24:12.000 Yeah, but anyway, one of my good friends, she actually went to North Korea.

00:24:18.540 You can go to North Korea.

00:24:19.860 Yeah, yeah, I've seen some films.

00:24:22.300 And she just said, you know, they told her, just don't take pictures of anything.

00:24:26.620 Right.

00:24:26.960 And that was that. 1.00

00:24:28.320 I mean, she's crazy. 0.99

00:24:29.060 I told her, don't do that. 0.87

00:24:31.300 But she's like, yeah, let me do it anyway.

00:24:33.340 It's not going to happen.

00:24:35.160 You know, there's not going to be a North Korean invasion of South Korea.

00:24:40.620 it just isn't gonna it's not that time it's not that mood of this country or of the world

00:24:48.640 never mind this country that they would do something like that even communist nations

00:24:53.600 would look at that and go what are you doing don't even know we're not going to go along

00:24:59.000 with this nonsense you're screwing up our business oh i lost it oh okay oh good oh no no i got you

00:25:07.620 i can hear you now um yeah i mean it makes no sense because what are they going to do you use 0.65

00:25:12.900 their communist logic to try to run capitalism from north korea then they're just going to ruin

00:25:18.160 samsung and then it's just gonna okay well then just short samsung then yeah i mean and and the

00:25:25.420 south koreans might actually have some gumption and have to defend their own homeland without

00:25:31.100 knowing about the big bad United States.

00:25:34.520 What a thought.

00:25:35.200 Meaning, like, defend your own homeland like we did?

00:25:38.400 I mean, come on.

00:25:39.600 I went over time, didn't I?

00:27:21.000 It is the Anthony Cumia Show.

00:27:24.360 Talking about Korea, north and south.

00:27:27.940 Donald Trump a little peeved at the South Koreans for not jumping right into this Iranian conflict.

00:27:36.540 And since we've been the South Korean ally, number one, with a bullet, with a bomb, with everything.

00:27:43.700 We have been their defender for 76 years since the Korean War.

00:27:51.240 And what do we get in return?

00:27:54.060 What, honestly, do we get in return from Korea?

00:27:57.340 Are we getting deals on graphics cards that they're making over there, electronics?

00:28:06.360 I don't think so.

00:28:07.780 I don't think we're getting good deals on that.

00:28:10.320 We have to look at it like, what advantage do we have?

00:28:17.160 Now, many years ago, there was an advantage.

00:28:20.000 We were fighting the commies. 0.99

00:28:22.280 those damn commies and we were fighting them and we did not want them taking another inch 1.00

00:28:30.060 of real estate from a free nation and uh for some reason we felt we had to stand guard 0.99

00:28:38.240 for 76 years for that when everything else the whole world changed there's no reason

00:28:45.000 for us to protect south korea anymore and like uh the caller just before the break was saying

00:28:51.840 uh yeah my uncle was in the korean war he fought it was this and it's like yeah and he goes and

00:28:57.960 he's dead now yeah they're all dead now for the most part most korean war veterans aren't around 0.99

00:29:05.340 anymore uh so you don't have to worry it's not like vietnam was even worse those poor bastards 0.97

00:29:12.200 had to come home and watch saigon fall because they left like 10 minutes before uh so it's not

00:29:20.320 like i have to degrade the the work and sacrifice that the soldiers put in for korea we understand 0.92

00:29:28.780 that and uh it was very appreciated and again it was necessary back then trying to fight off those 0.85

00:29:35.820 commies on every corner of the earth but now you honestly think south korea is in any danger 0.74

00:29:45.960 of being taken over by anybody.

00:29:49.280 North Korea, China, whatever it may be.

00:29:51.800 Cuba.

00:29:53.300 The commies are done.

00:29:55.680 Except for here.

00:29:57.920 There's the biggest resurgence of communism

00:30:00.260 is in the United States of America.

00:30:03.000 And it's not militant rabble-rousers with guns. 1.00

00:30:06.340 It's politicians that moronic liberals 1.00

00:30:10.140 are actually voting into office. 1.00

00:30:13.600 That's your fear of communism.

00:30:15.960 That's your domino theory, that if one city gets taken by a commie,

00:30:22.920 then all the cities will fall. 0.75

00:30:25.140 Well, there's something to be said about that.

00:30:27.780 Because Memdani becomes a rock star in New York,

00:30:31.020 and all these other commies pop out of the woodwork

00:30:34.100 and want to take seats of power in cities and states and federal seats of power.

00:30:42.800 So that's what you've got to worry about.

00:30:44.660 I wouldn't worry that much about South Korea. 0.52

00:30:47.060 I'd worry about us and the commies in our own country. 1.00

00:30:52.160 Could you click that continue thing on my phone bank, please?

00:30:56.580 Mission control up there.

00:30:58.720 Mission control.

00:31:00.440 Houston.

00:31:01.920 We have a continue button that needs to be pushed.

00:31:04.380 No?

00:31:05.180 Is anyone listening to one?

00:31:06.420 There we go.

00:31:08.080 Because I want to go to Tony.

00:31:11.160 Tony in Jersey.

00:31:12.560 Tony, what's up?

00:31:13.380 hi anthony it's good to catch up with you listen south korea has given us one goodie

00:31:21.220 for our communist regime that's running and that's francesca maoze hung who just lost a bit

00:31:27.940 she was from her parents came from south korea in the 80s and here she is now trying to wreak havoc

00:31:34.720 in america so i don't know what she's learning there what a great example that's right hung 0.99

00:31:41.040 She's South Korean, and then they come here, and they want to treat it like North Korea here in America.

00:31:48.480 Just disgraziata, as they say in Italian. 0.77

00:31:50.940 But the second part of it is South Korea's defense budget for 2025 was $52 billion,

00:31:56.580 which represents about 8.75 of its total government expenditures.

00:32:01.600 So they're focusing on modernizing their military and enhancing their defense against threats

00:32:07.380 against primarily, particularly North Korea.

00:32:11.360 That's what it says online.

00:32:12.400 But you know what?

00:32:13.160 What about the rest of the world? 0.97

00:32:14.680 What about Iran?

00:32:17.940 What about America?

00:32:19.480 Hello?

00:32:20.220 Hello?

00:32:20.860 Anybody home?

00:32:22.540 Yeah, well, you hear about stories,

00:32:24.660 and I'll get into this in a minute,

00:32:25.880 the stories coming out of the USS Abraham Lincoln,

00:32:29.360 the carrier, the conditions that the sailors have to be under.

00:32:33.240 And it's like, why doesn't our military have the best of the best of everything before we spend a dime on protecting some other country or doing their bidding or whatever you want to call it?

00:32:48.480 I love the idea of being isolationist at this point.

00:32:53.480 I have one more thing, Anthony, if I could tell you.

00:32:56.300 Sure.

00:32:56.600 Their industries are Samsung, Hyundai.

00:32:59.680 You know, after the Korean conflict, the Forgotten War, they started to really build up.

00:33:04.680 I read a great book about them.

00:33:06.980 And they really, like, you know, emerged as, like, this industry, Samsung and all this other stuff.

00:33:12.720 Now they're getting into things like, you know, AI and other things and trying to figure out how they could weasel into all these other things, like semiconductors and telecommunications.

00:33:26.680 communication so what about putting some of your efforts into protecting the world you see no one

00:33:31.760 wants to protect the world that's america's job right no that's america's job that's our job the

00:33:36.400 taxpayers job is to foot the bill for it and we sit there for 76 years like we're protecting a

00:33:43.100 an old oak tree while the rest of the world doesn't even think about uh the the situation 0.80

00:33:50.640 as it was back 76 years ago with communists and North Korea and China. 0.75

00:33:57.380 That world is over. It's gone. 0.89

00:33:59.660 There's no need for us to do that anymore.

00:34:02.320 It's like NATO.

00:34:03.660 There's no need for us to have military in Germany

00:34:08.260 to protect against the Soviet Union.

00:34:11.460 I mean, Russia isn't going to go pouring into Germany or into Europe

00:34:17.000 if there isn't a NATO led by the United States of America.

00:34:21.480 These are things that were necessary a long time ago.

00:34:25.440 They haven't been in quite some time.

00:34:28.640 And we, as taxpayers, are still paying the bill.

00:34:31.420 Tony, thanks for the call.

00:34:33.240 I was expecting, like, Tony from Jersey.

00:34:35.640 Hey, Anthony, what the f...

00:34:38.600 You know, something like that.

00:34:40.580 But that was nice.

00:34:42.840 And we do.

00:34:43.820 We spend so much money.

00:34:45.480 we spent our everything everything we do here in this country could be just that much better

00:34:54.540 if we weren't doling money out to be the world police all right are we are we uh really doing a

00:35:03.440 lot to keep cuba from invading the united states i know that was a big thing way back when big

00:35:12.240 thing caused some big trouble back in the 60s but imagine having uh anti-missile batteries

00:35:22.340 on the southern tip of florida and having uh destroyers and and aircraft carriers that circle

00:35:32.560 cuba to make sure no shenanigans are going on they're commies they're commies they were big

00:35:39.420 when the Soviet Union was around,

00:35:41.920 and the Soviet Union's not around anymore,

00:35:43.840 and they're just kind of, we feel bad for them now. 0.84

00:35:46.820 Driving in 57 Chevys that put together with bubble gum and bailing wire,

00:35:51.640 and their power goes out every other day,

00:35:54.260 and we don't look at them like the threat of communism is right at our door

00:36:00.500 90 miles off the shore of Florida,

00:36:02.980 because the times are different.

00:36:06.100 Everything has changed.

00:36:07.440 and and the idea that we need to protect europe from the soviet union or that we have to protect

00:36:16.220 south korea from north korea north korea is ridiculous it's a waste of time money resources

00:36:23.840 and money that could so much better be spent here in our own country and i'm not trying to

00:36:31.160 demean what the the the fighting men did in korea it was amazing it was necessary it was

00:36:41.020 one of the things that were uh needed to be done back then but then in hindsight people looked

00:36:47.180 around and went yeah i guess yeah we probably we probably shouldn't have done that in hindsight

00:36:55.020 you know hindsight's 20 20 i hear that's what they say all right we can move on to uh

00:37:03.420 to the uh abe lincoln uh this this story again uh some things that i agree with

00:37:13.300 other things i don't and i have to preface it by saying i'm not trying to crap all over our

00:37:21.140 our military men are fighting soldiers and sailors that uh have been on it you know this

00:37:29.640 this ship has been at sea for quite some time almost a year 200 and some odd days

00:37:35.940 uh the aid lincoln has been at sea um i think it's the longest deployment without

00:37:44.020 having shore leave ever ever for an aircraft carrier uh but they're complaining and they

00:37:55.060 aren't complaining i haven't really heard any sailors complaining i've seen a few videos but

00:38:00.380 even the news uh frames this as the families of the sailors are saying that they aren't getting

00:38:10.180 good food the the toilet facilities are all broken and backed up and it's dirty and all these

00:38:19.160 complaints that are being uh transferred through the families so you know what my old uh man used

00:38:27.200 to say my old man he used to say uh believe half of what you see and none of what you hear

00:38:33.140 really kind of uh not a not a good not a trusting guy believe half of what you see and none of what

00:38:43.720 you hear so you're hearing this stuff from the families maybe they got an axe to grind with

00:38:48.920 things i don't know maybe their helicopter mothers that get a little letter from the son that says

00:38:55.180 the toilet was backed up today oh my goodness my poor baby boy

00:38:59.820 they gotta fix these things and fires off some letter calls the uh the press to talk about how

00:39:09.420 awful the conditions are so um here's my take on this and i've never been in the military

00:39:17.340 my brother was i haven't been he was airborne not a sailor i know the sailors it's a whole

00:39:23.640 different thing you're on some kind of a boat so uh they've uh i've seen a few videos from some

00:39:32.420 sailors going around and saying well here's the bathroom and look at this it's all filthy i'm

00:39:37.980 supposed to use this it's disgusting and my take is uh like i said i haven't been in the military 0.52

00:39:44.120 but aren't you supposed to clean that isn't that your job ozoon gives you a better way to play in

00:40:57.620 and isn't it the job of whoever's above you to tell you to clean that?

00:41:04.920 and it isn't isn't it the job of the person above that person to call out the person that's supposed

00:41:13.700 to tell the low life uh poor little seaman that uh he's got to clean the toilets it's called a

00:41:22.080 chain of command and discipline and and work responsibility because when they say the toilet's

00:41:31.860 dirty and they show video i'm just stuck here thinking who does he think is supposed to come

00:41:38.700 in and clean it you're you're taking video of a filthy bathroom head and you're saying how dirty

00:41:48.720 it is who in your mind are you going i wish so-and-so would come in and clean it a cleaning

00:41:57.520 service a maid or other guys like you that have stuff to do you're not the cool guy in the ready

00:42:08.220 room you're not getting briefed you're not tom cruise you're the guy that's supposed to clean

00:42:16.580 the toilet so tom cruise can take a dump in there after he's uh had a hard day in the sky

00:42:24.740 so i don't know it seems to me like the responsibility falls upon everyone on that ship

00:42:32.980 and if there's a problem then the higher ups really and that means

00:42:38.280 hegseth too needs to look into that and remedy that that problem uh over the course of the years

00:42:47.460 I've read stories where it looks like the chain of command and discipline has really taken a backseat.

00:42:57.120 And that's dangerous for a fighting force on social media.

00:43:03.300 I'm seeing a lot of videos of rust bucket ships, ships that are just rusting and filthy.

00:43:10.700 and people that were in the Navy are responding to it,

00:43:17.000 going, this would never rust on the outside of the ship.

00:43:21.100 There were people that had to clean that.

00:43:24.580 And it just doesn't seem like that is being done.

00:43:29.340 And again, I don't know, was it the Joe Biden, DEI military?

00:43:36.640 Remember, we saw a lot of that.

00:43:38.420 I saw a lot of sailors that were a little more preoccupied with their mascara and lipstick and rouge

00:43:49.420 than they were with making sure things got done around the ship

00:43:53.560 or making sure that the Navy was going to pay for their transgender reassignment surgery.

00:44:02.180 That seemed to be very important to some of the sailors I remember seeing.

00:44:08.420 on the uh on videos that were coming right from these these ships so something's got to be done

00:44:16.600 something real and substantial heads have to roll how do you you know i don't know who's in command

00:44:24.280 of the uss abraham lincoln it's an aircraft carrier i don't think you get to attain the

00:44:30.360 level of a commander for an aircraft carrier unless you're good or unless they want to show

00:44:38.520 that they're diverse and open-minded and they'll put someone in there just so they can check a box

00:44:46.640 that look at us we have a woman commander or a minority commander or whatever it is and

00:44:55.620 And for some reason, there hasn't been the level of discipline and the chain of command and listening to the orders of people that are above you.

00:45:11.700 So maybe they've got to look into that.

00:45:14.080 I remember a story a couple of years ago.

00:45:17.820 Some woman was commanding a ship, and it crashed into something.

00:45:22.580 And she had, like, no experience as an actual captain of a vessel at any point.

00:45:33.240 She was clerical, and she had studied.

00:45:38.500 She worked underneath people that were doing this,

00:45:40.900 and they promoted her to check a box. 0.82

00:45:45.660 Look at us. 1.00

00:45:46.720 We put women in charge of ships. 0.94

00:45:48.980 they think it's like the movies where they go to the battleship or the destroyer and it's a woman

00:45:55.540 in charge and she goes we'll take care of this don't worry and she's literally a man you know

00:46:02.040 she's acting and sounding like a man i don't know i don't think that's the case maybe it's me

00:46:08.120 like i said i've never been so i don't know but i'm hearing from people that have been

00:46:13.220 and they don't sound none too happy about what's going on all right don't you go anywhere

00:46:18.100 800-848-9222 if you want to give us a call back with more of the anthony cumia show in moments

00:46:23.980 it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple podcast network

00:46:29.060 it's the anthony cumia show and let's go right to ken in jersey what's up ken

00:46:35.920 hi uh you know i i don't think we ever really understood uh communism because communism

00:46:46.960 was for masses of people who were starving and and and supporting a nobility a monarchy that was

00:46:59.100 living in wealth and that's the situation you had in russia in 1917 and that's the situation

00:47:08.080 you had in vietnam in the in the 50s and uh you can't stop it you you know we we were trying to

00:47:17.120 stop it and the french the french understood that it was unstoppable and they got out well after 0.59

00:47:26.780 they got their ass handed to him a couple of times but uh yeah they had to leave they realized that 0.95

00:47:33.400 that their plantations and the government was being taken over by the masses of starving people 0.98

00:47:41.540 and kicking out the monarchy, which was trying to hold on, and they got out. 0.97

00:47:49.920 So we stupidly walked in, thinking that we could, you know, save the monarchy and the, you know,

00:48:01.380 the dictatorship and of course we couldn't because the masses of people were not on our side

00:48:09.420 yeah eventually they just they just won yeah i'm not too sure that was the only reason you know

00:48:16.640 there's so much so much politically that was going on at the time and uh you know people

00:48:23.120 didn't kind of they didn't like the restrictions kennedy was putting on the uh the vietnam conflict

00:48:29.260 They would have rather have had people go in there sooner and in greater numbers,

00:48:33.900 so then he disappears, and Johnson's able to do whatever the hell he wants as far as Vietnam goes.

00:48:40.640 Yeah, well, Kennedy, I think Kennedy realized that, you know,

00:48:45.680 we were not going to get involved any more than being advisors and, you know, supplying them with arms.

00:48:56.840 But if he had lived, we would have never sent over, you know, armies and armies and and and more and more military.

00:49:08.400 He would have realized that it was a hopeless. Yeah, I think he knew.

00:49:11.680 I think he knew that and and knew that if he could get the South to fight for themselves using advisers,

00:49:20.080 even using our military equipment that's totally different than getting uh just about 60 000

00:49:26.800 americans killed over there but uh i think that's what it wanted and again you got to look into that

00:49:32.600 old that old uh military industrial complex thing and uh there was so much going on then but i think

00:49:39.800 part of it actually was that we had to beat the commies we couldn't let the commies take over

00:49:46.620 that they scared everyone with we never understood why yeah we never understood why they could take

00:49:53.760 over countries but those countries were uh masses of people that were that were serfs they were

00:50:03.060 starving they were you know in vietnam and then then they were being uh uh you know dictated to

00:50:11.140 by a small nobility that was living in wealth.

00:50:16.120 And, you know, we couldn't understand that. 0.91

00:50:20.700 And, you know, we just got into it because, oh, we have to stop the commies.

00:50:27.460 You know, it was like in the 1950s.

00:50:29.700 Right.

00:50:30.080 And, you know, it just was, it was just unstoppable.

00:50:36.580 But you're right, because once a country like Vietnam, once the people are not starving anymore with communism, then it becomes capitalism.

00:50:55.760 Yeah, then they start selling their goods and services to the world, and that's what it is.

00:51:00.000 it vietnam is that right now they're a huge import of rice or export of rice and textiles

00:51:07.120 i gotta move on ken but thanks uh thanks for the call yeah vietnam you know anybody back in the

00:51:13.640 60s and early 70s before the end of the vietnam war if you would have asked what vietnam would

00:51:19.840 look like today based on if we won the war and then based on if we lost the war uh the image

00:51:28.520 that they're given probably would have been completely backwards thinking that you know

00:51:33.220 well the commies if they win it's just going to be a dark horrible place like winter in moscow 0.99

00:51:40.580 in the soviet union and it wasn't the case a lot of these little commie countries

00:51:46.220 didn't like the big uh like the soviet union and china as much as they didn't like america 0.59

00:51:53.000 wanted to be left to their own commie devices

00:51:55.920 in their little commie circle of power.

00:51:59.080 They would use all the help they could 0.99

00:52:02.120 from the big commie nations 1.00

00:52:04.660 to fight the Americans and the French 0.56

00:52:07.740 when that was going on.

00:52:09.660 But when all's said and done,

00:52:12.560 they didn't want to be some satellite nation

00:52:15.300 of the Soviet Union either.

00:52:17.980 And that was the misconception

00:52:19.540 that was going around a lot back then.

00:52:21.540 but it all boils down to what the hell are we doing 76 years later still defending

00:52:28.560 um uh south korea and still having military presence in in a lot of countries in europe

00:52:36.340 it makes no sense i don't think um i don't think it's it's financially viable for us anymore

00:52:44.860 everyone says that you know we got our own problems here why are we trying to go to

00:52:49.300 to the moon there's a private company in with that too spacex and other companies

00:52:55.520 and yeah nasa we do have tax dollars go to the moon we we learn a lot of things through the

00:53:00.740 technology that it takes to do things like that so it helps the country out but what about our

00:53:07.500 military presence all over the world get out pull it back put all those guys on our own border

00:53:13.920 Wouldn't that be great? 1.00

00:53:15.280 Just put them all on our own border, have them help boot out the illegals that have been brought in here 0.99

00:53:21.320 over the course of years and years, and have them actually defending the United States of America 0.98

00:53:27.240 instead of South Korea and Germany and whoever the hell else we're doling money and resources out to.

00:53:34.920 All right, don't go anywhere.

00:55:30.140 ideas that are so insanely stupid but uh they're dedicated dedicated to the cause activists 0.97

00:55:40.160 well there's a an activist who is asking mem danny to scale back on these quality of life 0.99

00:55:50.720 arrests have we even seen these quality of life arrests going on uh i think we would like that

00:56:00.500 as uh new yorkers whether you live there or are visiting if they start nipping it in the bud

00:56:07.580 at the level of uh quality of life crimes being dealt with then maybe the big crimes the ones

00:56:18.860 where people are getting pushed in front of trains

00:56:21.100 or clocked over their head with a lead pipe.

00:56:24.480 Maybe some of those would go away

00:56:26.260 because you're getting these people

00:56:29.060 before they can perpetrate these terrible, awful, deadly crimes.

00:56:36.920 And I think they're trying to get Mamdani to scale it back.

00:56:42.080 Has Zoran Mamdani, is he known for letting the police just run out there

00:56:48.960 and grab people up for public urination or drinking in public, things like that?

00:56:55.320 I don't think that's even going on.

00:56:59.680 But, you know, got to listen to the activists.

00:57:03.040 They know everything.

00:57:04.700 Clip AC5, here is an activist.

00:57:08.500 I guess after he's done yapping, you could cut it off.

00:57:10.820 I'll let you know when. 1.00

00:57:12.080 Let her rip. 1.00

00:57:13.480 We are calling what it is, broken windows policing.

00:57:17.260 Critics say it's a betrayal that the NYPD is still enforcing so-called low-level offenses,

00:57:23.440 despite Mayor Mamdani's promise to shift the department's focus.

00:57:27.720 Mayor Mamdani was elected on a promise of making New York a liberal city for all,

00:57:34.760 ending the criminalization of poverty, mental health, substance use, and homelessness.

00:57:39.720 Criminal justice advocates with Court Watch NYC monitored 360 arraignments over four days

00:57:46.720 and claimed that more than half were for misdemeanor offenses.

00:57:50.820 Most of what we saw were crimes of poverty, people who were stealing things like toothpaste,

00:57:55.780 people who were stealing things like, you know, soap.

00:57:59.500 And that means if you're stealing those things, you need them.

00:58:02.700 Advocates believe that shoplifting or bringing bags of trash onto the trains

00:58:06.720 or sleeping in the subway should not be criminally prosecuted.

00:58:11.020 Neither should graffiti vandalism and public urination, even fair evasion.

00:58:16.340 Former NYPD chief of detectives Robert Boyce disagreed.

00:58:18.940 You can end it there. 1.00

00:58:24.440 Sometimes I just don't know what to say because I've just heard something so incredibly stupid. 0.99

00:58:31.260 Both of these people, the first guy, the guy that was talking about 0.99

00:58:35.000 this is broken windows policing yes yes it is do you know who had great success with that

00:58:43.220 rudy giuliani mayor giuliani he told his cops to go after everything if they see something

00:58:53.260 happening doesn't matter graffiti breaking a window fair evaders arrest them and run them

00:59:02.580 through the system and lo and behold crime went down violent crime went down but you know you got

00:59:12.280 people that think if you're homeless or on drugs or poor or mentally disturbed that it it gives you

00:59:23.300 the right to do whatever you want look it's sad of course we would love to be able to help so many 0.67

00:59:30.580 of the downtrodden uh but using that as an excuse like hey hey don't arrest them he's mentally ill

00:59:40.060 uh well until you could come up with something better than arresting them we're going to arrest

00:59:47.680 them you want to figure out how to fund a mental hospital you want to figure out uh some place to

00:59:55.360 put these people so they're under constant supervision that they take their medication

01:00:01.460 so they're almost normal and not pushing old ladies down the subway stairs huh but these

01:00:08.980 activists i don't know what what reality they live in it's definitely not ours where they think you

01:00:20.020 could just have these people running around committing crimes and it's not even a problem

01:00:26.500 it's actually awesome and anyone trying to stop that or arrest them or come up with some answer

01:00:35.040 they are the problem no you just need to let them do this because as you heard that woman

01:00:42.220 i use the term loosely i saw the video what you heard her talk about is another thing that's just

01:00:49.720 insane we you know shouldn't arrest people if they're stealing toothpaste or soap it's because

01:00:58.080 they need it now first of all any homeless person i've had any contact with in new york city

01:01:05.780 is certainly not using stolen soap or toothpaste or bought soap and toothpaste they're just not

01:01:12.600 using it at all i think we can all agree with that if we spent any time in new york city

01:01:18.440 the other thing is nobody is going into a cvs and grabbing a tube of toothpaste then some soap

01:01:27.000 and and you know dirty they got their head down because they're ashamed they don't want to steal

01:01:34.480 they have to like this tub of garbage was saying they have to steal and they they avert their eyes 0.88

01:01:43.880 from anyone please i'm so sorry i'm so oh this is so degrading that i have to steal this and then 0.81

01:01:50.180 they go somewhere and brush their teeth and slather up and make sure they're presentable

01:01:55.880 for the rest of the bums that are uh that are roaming the night uh that's not what's happening 0.82

01:02:05.160 and when people get arrested for shoplifting toothpaste or soap or anything else they are

01:02:13.320 leaving with bags full bags full of soap and toothpaste and deodorant and shampoo and

01:02:24.380 everything else if the store hasn't locked it up already you know why because they're

01:02:30.720 not using it they're selling it they're fencing it they get something in return drugs money 0.98

01:02:38.700 whatever it is and they dump it off to some nigerians that are running the operation 0.96

01:02:44.020 and then they put a tarp out on the street and they sell the stuff that was stolen that's what's 0.95

01:02:52.760 going on this woman thinks it's it's a movie she thinks it's one of those movies with the poor

01:03:00.500 homeless guy who was that will smith and his son remember that movie he was smart but he was somehow

01:03:07.140 fell through the cracks and he'd get dressed in a gas station bathroom he'd wash off in the sink

01:03:16.540 and wash his clothes and dry him on the hand dryer in the bathroom and and he'd have to take his kid

01:03:23.920 on the interviews with him and he'd go in and get a try to get a job this is it's fantasy at a lord

01:03:34.360 of the rings level lord of the rings is less of a fantasy than the fact that there'd be a homeless

01:03:42.280 person stealing some soap and toothpaste to get ready for his job interview in a gas station

01:03:50.940 bathroom find me one find me one what a load hollywood's idea you know i saw a video today 1.00

01:04:02.900 it was outstanding it was some woman uh just desheveled and emaciated and drugged out 1.00

01:04:11.020 um and some a black dude was a pistol whipping her by a dumpster and there were a couple of 1.00

01:04:19.060 other scantily clad women looking on and yelling at the girl apparently she had not fessed up with 0.96

01:04:27.240 all the cash from her rounds of prostitution he was what is known as a pimp yo pimping ain't easy

01:04:36.080 from what i've heard from certain lyrics of uh songs and uh i'm watching this and it's horrific

01:04:43.260 and i'm watching going like oh you know what you know hollywood portrays

01:04:49.920 hookers and pimps and relationships and watch pretty woman and see old gerbil loving richard 0.97

01:04:58.540 gear uh going uh to get his uh his hooker girlfriend julia roberts 0.99

01:05:07.480 julia roberts and richard gear that's who you get not some hose monster getting beaten behind 0.99

01:05:15.860 a dumpster and the pimps they're not nice like uh like huggy bear on starsky and hutch

01:05:26.500 he was nice he had his hose but he treated him nicely and then he'd give starsky and hutch some

01:05:33.160 info when was this ever happening i love the hollywood version of real life stuff

01:05:42.740 and and what rick makes it even more amazing is these days you see the real stuff we have access

01:05:50.420 to it online years ago we didn't i don't think anyone was naive enough to think the pimps were

01:05:55.740 huggy bear and hookers were julia roberts i think we all knew we watched a few heralda

01:06:01.800 rivera documentaries about prostitution and whatnot but uh i don't think we really understood 0.94

01:06:08.380 how tragic it is.

01:06:12.640 And now we see it.

01:06:15.000 Do you find a fun night out

01:08:11.580 in a little bit a couple of minutes if that seconds don't go anywhere it's the anthony

01:08:17.740 cumia show on the red apple podcast network it is the anthony cumia show and uh you know talking

01:08:27.500 about the internet and social media and our ability to see everything and anything that's

01:08:33.700 going on in the world uh it has made it so difficult for the general public to be lied to

01:08:41.660 about so much or not even maybe not even lied to but information kept from you about how bad

01:08:51.520 things are or even how good things are in some cases people that like to conjure up fear

01:08:57.180 would like you to believe certain things and then it's just not so and vice versa but that's why

01:09:05.320 when when twitter was twitter uh years ago before elon took it over it was you you would be censored

01:09:14.060 if you were putting up stuff that the agenda the liberal left-wing democrat agenda did not want

01:09:24.240 people to see they had the man in the palm of their hand and accounts would be uh canceled

01:09:32.600 you'd be suspended permanently suspended i titled my first book permanently suspended

01:09:41.980 because that's exactly what they did uh they threw me off of twitter i was off of twitter for

01:09:48.000 i think seven years maybe nine i don't even know it was like um exiled and then once elon musk took

01:09:58.220 over i got my account back same name same everything but uh there were people in power

01:10:05.480 in the government because you know i had so many people say well twitter's a private company man

01:10:12.940 you just they could do what they want it's like a restaurant kicking you out they have the right

01:10:18.020 to kick anyone out it's like okay it's not a first amendment issue it is a censorship issue

01:10:24.160 Whenever you'd say censorship, they'd go, no, no, the First Amendment applies to the government not being able to die. 0.98

01:10:29.400 All right, shut up. 0.95

01:10:31.000 They're censoring you, whether they can or not is what you're talking about. 0.99

01:10:34.940 But there was censorship going on, and it wasn't the companies.

01:10:40.200 We found out.

01:10:42.020 We saw.

01:10:42.900 We saw the documentation.

01:10:45.300 We heard from the people. 0.93

01:10:46.540 the government people in the government were in contact with the the the giant wigs the big wigs

01:10:57.560 over at twitter and uh facebook and they were doing some damage because they saw how effective

01:11:09.000 social media was in 2016 with donald trump and uh they did not want that happening again

01:11:15.300 so they just started blowing out everybody and now we're in a much better place as far as social

01:11:22.420 media goes maybe not for the content there is a lot of garbage out there and as far as lying to

01:11:28.500 people or or keeping the truth from them ai is another one of these things that just have people 0.88

01:11:34.040 bamboozled everyone says it's only boomers oh boomers they fall for that ai stuff all the time

01:11:42.780 I read plenty of comments on AI videos and whatnot on social media.

01:11:51.560 And there are people of all ages that have no idea they're looking at something conjured up

01:11:58.160 in a graphics processor, in a data center, somewhere in a giant building somewhere.

01:12:07.020 And that's what's happening.

01:12:08.860 So just when we got to the point where they, the they, the government, the powers that be, the people at the top of the pyramid, weren't able to pull the wool over your eyes because you had access to the truth through your phone, social media.

01:12:31.540 you could see the videos, you could hear the sound clips,

01:12:35.360 you could hear what people said just a few years ago

01:12:38.500 in contrast to what they're saying now,

01:12:41.200 proving that they either lied then or they're lying now, all this stuff.

01:12:46.360 And we had that for 10 minutes, 10 minutes of clarity.

01:12:52.520 And now with AI, which is only getting more and more ingrained into social media,

01:13:00.580 and it's getting so good at this point that it is very difficult to tell uh now we can be lied to

01:13:09.900 again we could have the truth kept from us we could have the fake truth given to us and uh you

01:13:18.760 know every weapon has an anti-weapon over time you know for the most part i mean add a bomb

01:13:26.420 Not really a good anti-weapon for that.

01:13:29.660 But usually people try their hardest to figure out some way to cancel out a weapon.

01:13:34.940 So maybe, maybe they'll come up with something.

01:13:39.360 And I'm a fan of AI.

01:13:41.400 I like it.

01:13:43.580 I think it's a very cool technology.

01:13:46.560 I like the idea that it's looking more and more lifelike.

01:13:52.060 And they're able to, people are putting out these amazing short movies,

01:13:58.700 if you want to call it a movie, that are done very well, written well.

01:14:02.720 It sounds good.

01:14:03.520 It looks amazing.

01:14:04.820 And it's pretty much the beginning of this whole thing.

01:14:07.180 It's just at that point where you know it's AI.

01:14:12.120 In another year, it's going to look even more amazing.

01:14:16.820 and, you know, this could be good

01:14:19.600 and it'll probably be bad.

01:14:22.200 Could be good, probably, probably bad.

01:14:26.280 Do you find a fun night out

01:14:27.880 can quickly become inconvenient

01:14:29.360 when you forget your reading glasses at home?

01:15:41.880 Anyway, this is Zoran Mamdani.

01:15:46.400 The importance of the pied-a-terre tax.

01:15:49.180 Am I saying it right now?

01:15:50.760 Pied-a-terre.

01:15:51.600 I hate the idea that I've got to speak that frog language in order to do this story,

01:15:56.640 if it even is that frog language.

01:16:00.780 But there's just a lack of understanding as to what people do

01:16:06.960 when they buy a second property for an investment.

01:16:12.840 It benefits the area.

01:16:16.980 You're still paying sales tax.

01:16:19.100 You're still paying property tax.

01:16:22.300 You're paying taxes on your utilities,

01:16:24.840 and you're paying your utilities.

01:16:27.000 There is so much that goes into owning a building

01:16:33.100 that isn't occupied.

01:16:34.660 It's an investment like anything else.

01:16:36.960 and uh oh look at me i don't think i have time to discuss this maybe i do we'll get to the clip

01:16:43.780 after uh after the break because if you listen to zoran and these uh commies no they're the

01:16:51.560 democrats socialists of america yeah communists if you listen to them this is the greatest thing

01:16:59.420 they can take someone's money someone that lives a lifestyle and has achieved things that most

01:17:06.920 people will never see and for some reason that makes them you're able to villainize them they're

01:17:16.020 the bad guy because they've achieved something in their lives that most people would dream to

01:17:22.920 achieve that's kind of interesting about the mindset of uh people that love the idea of a

01:17:31.140 pita terre tax just the insane taxes that are paid by people that make a good living is that

01:17:38.920 any one of them if they were making that living they'd love it they'd be so happy with what

01:17:46.040 they've achieved in life and they wouldn't want to just give it away to some guy named Zoran

01:17:52.100 Mamdani so he can dole it out to people that might not have worked as hard as you to achieve

01:17:58.760 these things. Oh, maybe they just fell through the cracks and they're doing a job interview

01:18:02.960 tomorrow after they shower in a gas station bathroom. But for the most part, I'm going

01:18:07.820 to say they probably haven't achieved as much as you because maybe not as bright, maybe

01:18:13.760 not as motivated. These things happen. This is the world we live in. So he wants to tax

01:18:23.380 people that have invested in property in New York City.

01:18:29.540 You don't just get to put a building there like Monopoly.

01:18:33.500 You got to pay.

01:18:35.860 And then they want to take their money

01:18:38.820 and give it to these various free programs

01:18:42.820 that Zoram Abdani comes up with.

01:18:44.700 Free child care, free health care,

01:18:46.760 free or discount grocery stores and all that nonsense.

01:18:50.760 uh and then that isn't enough that isn't enough for how many times they say fair share like when

01:18:59.940 when is it fair it's been unfair for years according to you guys so uh they're putting

01:19:07.660 this tax on top of it which again seems completely unconstitutional it seems like something uh you

01:19:16.320 would throw a bunch of tea off of a ship into a harbor about we really don't get all that testy

01:19:22.960 over taxes like we used to do we we bitch and complain about them but are we going to start

01:19:27.760 throwing uh some stuff off of ships and in harbors i don't know anyway i'll come back we'll talk about 0.57

01:19:35.800 that i also want to uh talk about the um curtis lewa comments on memdani attending the 9-11

01:19:42.940 memorial, and more when we return.

01:19:47.300 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:19:53.500 The Anthony Cumia Show.

01:19:55.520 Let's take a peek here at the lovely Susan from Corning, New York.

01:20:00.660 Susan, how are you, darling?

01:20:03.120 Oh, I'm just fabulous.

01:20:04.840 But I want to just say, this Emily Gallagher, she's an assemblywoman in New York State,

01:20:12.780 saying people you know they they were stealing because of poverty well you know what and no one

01:20:21.480 gets arrested in new york state because of the laws here that you can steal up to 999 dollars

01:20:29.140 and it's a petty crime slap on the wrist no one gets arrested for stealing soap first of all

01:20:36.040 in new york city you couldn't even steal soap because it's all locked up for god's sake yeah

01:20:41.580 yeah they locked up they locked up everything and like you said they they don't arrest them

01:20:48.820 they'll they'll give them a desk appearance ticket which technically they they treat it like it you

01:20:56.240 were arrested you were brought down to the precinct given a date to go to court they don't

01:21:00.780 fingerprint you and take your uh picture you just get a an appearance ticket and they don't show up

01:21:06.660 for those so eventually they get a warrant put out for them but they don't even look for them

01:21:11.900 when there's a warrant on some petty crime so you're right susan nobody gets arrested

01:21:16.820 or faces any real consequence for uh these crimes yeah exactly and you know they're working out

01:21:24.400 lows with tv sets and everything else because and the employees get fired if they even try to like

01:21:32.840 confront them i mean and so why do you think so many business new york state we got to get

01:21:39.140 blakeman in there you know by the way i'm moving to the commonwealth of pennsylvania but i'm still

01:21:45.500 going to try to work with blakeman yeah i can't stand this with and i think that when i hear i

01:21:53.420 think new york state upstate if we can get the boat out they can actually counteract uh you know

01:22:00.260 the crazy jobs and maybe they just will just stay home i i don't know i have no faith i've lost all

01:22:07.340 faith in new york to elect anybody with any common sense they had a chance of having lee zeldin and

01:22:15.200 getting uh hokal out of there after she took over for cuomo and they voted her into office and now

01:22:22.840 you have another chance in november and let's see them screw this up susan do you find yourself

01:23:14.540 All right, we've got to get some fairness in the elections,

01:23:17.360 and that is on the way too with, yeah, there's good lawsuits out there

01:23:22.800 that are going to really hamper down.

01:23:25.740 I'm very confident.

01:23:28.700 I want to email you.

01:23:30.680 How can I, like, send something to you?

01:23:32.420 Oh, right through the WABC radio.

01:23:35.020 You could do it that way.

01:23:36.800 I'm going to do that.

01:23:38.580 You do that.

01:23:39.040 They'll send it to me.

01:23:40.500 Thank you, Susan.

01:23:41.380 Take care. 1.00

01:23:43.000 Oh, there she goes.

01:23:46.320 You know, I used to give out my email address when I was a shock jock at WNEW Radio New York City

01:23:54.300 back in the late 90s, early 2000s.

01:23:58.540 You know why? 1.00

01:24:01.680 Women fans of the show would send naked pictures. 1.00

01:24:05.160 Oh, yeah. 1.00

01:24:06.320 Oh, yeah.

01:24:08.400 Now, Susan, I mean, she sounds lovely,

01:24:15.040 and I like her take.

01:24:19.840 There we go.

01:24:21.240 Hey, Susan, how about a drink? 1.00

01:24:22.680 and uh you know the the time time just time's a bitch isn't it oh anyway thank you susan she's 0.99

01:24:34.860 always lovely i have no faith why would i why would i give the benefit of the doubt to the 0.94

01:24:40.380 people of new york when they already screwed up so badly by and i'm not even just talking about

01:24:47.280 the city of new york with memdani of course but you think the whole state there are some very

01:24:53.420 red parts of new york new york state people when i was living out in california when i was a little

01:24:59.560 wee tater tot uh people would say where are you from i'd say new york oh god how do you live with

01:25:06.760 the buildings and the traffic it i live in a place that's more rural than where we are right now

01:25:13.680 And people don't understand that, but there are.

01:25:17.460 But for some reason, when election time rolls around

01:25:21.400 and you want somebody to be the head muckety-muck of your state

01:25:25.220 and you have the choice of Lee Zeldin or Kathy Hochul 0.66

01:25:30.360 and you go with Hochul, I've lost all faith.

01:25:35.080 And then, of course, New York City is just an abomination unto itself.

01:25:39.700 But state-wise, how long are you guys going to keep just voting Chuck Schumer in?

01:25:46.360 You voted in AOC.

01:25:49.160 What are you doing?

01:25:51.300 No faith.

01:25:52.520 None whatsoever.

01:25:53.580 All right, let me get back to Zorn and Danny talking about the Piotr tax.

01:26:01.180 Here's his words as to why this is necessary, and it's great, and he's amazing.

01:26:07.660 Let's listen.

01:26:08.920 AC6.

01:26:12.740 I think I'll leave it to the president to share his own opinions on it.

01:26:18.320 I continue to believe in the importance of a surcharge on secondary homes worth more than $5 million,

01:26:23.800 as well as our ability to implement that surcharge.

01:26:27.680 And just to go back to the importance of it, we're here today talking in some ways about art,

01:26:33.120 but in other ways also about affordability.

01:26:34.540 and the importance of a tax on a secondary home worth more than five million dollars

01:26:39.780 is that it raises half a billion dollars and that is money that makes our streets safer it makes our

01:26:48.020 schools stronger it makes the city the world-class city that we all love and know is our home and i'm

01:26:54.100 looking forward to all of the improvements that we can deliver with with that revenue

01:26:59.220 so reallocation of wealth which no surprise there he's a communist that's what they do

01:27:10.340 they reallocate wealth not their own that's for sure but uh they love taking other people's wealth

01:27:18.860 and giving it to people that are uh you know less less well off not a lot of it

01:27:28.880 they don't give a bunch of wealth to a few people they want to whittle down the wealthy guy's wealth

01:27:36.140 so he's broke and then give it to the people in just enough of a distribution where everyone's

01:27:43.440 still kind of broke that way they are the only people that have any wealth and they can dictate

01:27:51.600 what happens that's how communism works but it's democrat social don't come at me with that

01:27:59.160 d a dsa stuff do not come at me with that i don't play well when people say

01:28:06.580 democrat socialist is different than it isn't it isn't it's more covert they're trying to hide

01:28:16.880 communism under this umbrella of socialism democrat socialism you notice if anyone has to

01:28:25.280 put the word democrat into it freedom republic any any word like that that goes into it it's

01:28:35.320 it's a sham it's the uh sheep's clothing for the wolf because we all know damn well

01:28:44.600 what they have in store if they get any real numbers which it looks like they will

01:28:51.080 everyone all these young dummies that have been voting liberal and democrat uh this is their new

01:29:00.220 thing how do you how are you so impressionable how do you change your opinion on things 1.00

01:29:08.920 unless of course your opinion is stupid and and you really don't believe in anything 0.99

01:29:14.720 easily manipulated that's what it is because a couple of years ago it was all about about 1.00

01:29:20.660 liberalism and democrats and uh now it's it's socialism communism that's what it is

01:29:30.660 that is what it is and then he talks about affordability i'll tell you who can afford it

01:29:37.900 the guy with the five million dollar building in new york and why does that make him a bad guy

01:29:45.180 look i can't just go and buy a five million dollar building in new york city i've done very well my

01:29:52.160 career i thank god it's uh and and a good share of luck but i'm not one of these people that is

01:30:00.820 pissed off because i wanted to buy a five million dollar building in new york city

01:30:05.360 But if you can, and it's legal, and it's an investment, why is it on your back to cough up money so that a very expensive city to live in becomes affordable to everybody?

01:30:23.640 Nothing is affordable to everybody.

01:30:27.080 There's always going to be people that can't afford things.

01:30:31.040 Unfortunately, sometimes that's food.

01:30:33.220 But in this country, we have a great system of charity and of welfare that takes care of it.

01:30:42.740 We don't have literally starving people.

01:30:46.800 Go to some countries in Africa, India, cities in India, countries in Africa,

01:30:53.240 and you will see people quite literally starve to death.

01:30:58.520 They did not have anything to eat.

01:31:01.380 they cannot find anything to eat, and they starve to death.

01:31:06.020 This doesn't happen.

01:31:08.800 In a country of 350-odd million people, no one in this country starves to death.

01:31:16.560 That's amazing.

01:31:18.960 It's quite amazing.

01:31:21.880 Do you know what supplies starving, or not starving, but hungry, even malnutrition,

01:31:28.460 that that is a problem here in this country i'm not saying everyone's uh fat you you would think

01:31:35.220 that watching social media but there's a bunch of people here in this country that yeah they don't

01:31:42.360 have as much food as they would like they don't have as much healthy food as they would like

01:31:48.160 but no one's dying of starvation and the reason is charities it's not even government subsidized

01:31:57.860 food and money and the ebt and all that it's churches and communities that get together and

01:32:06.560 feed their own people in their close-knit communities those feed more people that are

01:32:13.080 hungry than any government-run thing entity that always seems to be a waste of money yeah people

01:32:21.200 are getting food uh there's also it's rife with fraud the people that are getting food uh for

01:32:27.380 some reason they're 300 pounds and have their nails and hair done maher's did the latest iphone

01:32:34.920 so it's ripe with corruption and fraud but we have a very charitable country it's an amazing

01:32:42.500 place when when you can look through the fog of disgust that we look through every day uh people

01:32:51.380 do really seem to care about each other in this country and don't allow children to starve to

01:32:57.140 death but as a far as everything being affordable to people because we're a charitable nation that

01:33:07.000 won't allow people to starve to death doesn't mean we're a charitable nation which means oh

01:33:11.960 i have a bmw so this person needs one too or that i'm going to subsidize the hair and nails and phone

01:33:20.240 for this woman and her unbelievably huge brood of children from various fathers.

01:33:29.200 That isn't what making things affordable to people is about, important things.

01:33:39.820 That is redistribution of wealth, penalizing people that have done well for themselves,

01:33:45.740 and telling them that because you've done well

01:35:34.460 Um, Curtis Sliwa, he was somebody that we kind of tied a thin strand of hope to during the mayoral campaign and election for New York City mayor.

01:35:52.680 and uh you know i was a a supporter i was a support of curtis liwa uh most of my reasoning

01:36:03.140 was he's the republican candidate i am voting for the republican candidate i am not going to

01:36:10.680 meanwhile i down here i couldn't vote anyway but uh in another world in another life uh

01:36:17.380 He was nominated by the Republicans as their candidate, and I was of the school of thought that you vote for your party candidate.

01:36:27.480 And the Democrat candidate being Zoran Mamdani, I certainly wasn't backing him.

01:36:34.220 And then you throw the Cuomo wrench, the Cuomo monkey wrench into the works.

01:36:42.160 now you have people going well i don't want to vote for memdani and i know curtis doesn't have

01:36:49.620 a snowball's chance in hell a little snowball wearing a beret uh chance in hell so i guess

01:36:57.560 i'll vote for cuomo and then everyone started getting really pissy about it what sliwa a vote

01:37:07.140 for Sliwa is a vote for Mamdani.

01:37:09.220 You better vote for Cuomo.

01:37:10.580 I've never seen so many Republicans loving Cuomo.

01:37:16.040 But they saw it as a better chance than Curtis Sliwa.

01:37:23.600 And we all know how it turned out.

01:37:25.840 All right?

01:37:26.560 It didn't work.

01:37:28.340 The votes were split.

01:37:29.480 I think it didn't work.

01:37:32.180 I don't even think that if everyone that voted for Sliwa voted for Cuomo,

01:37:37.780 I still don't think he would have had enough votes to beat Memdani.

01:37:41.940 But you were never going to get everybody that was voting for Curtis to vote for Cuomo.

01:37:46.060 Republicans hate Cuomo.

01:37:48.020 They were never going to vote for him.

01:37:49.980 So now you got Memdani in there, and that's that.

01:37:54.000 But Sliwa, he's still got some stuff to say.

01:37:56.700 And I am now of the same school of thought as Sid Rosenberg is. 0.96

01:38:04.940 You know, screw this guy. 0.94

01:38:08.280 What does he stand for? 0.99

01:38:10.160 Does he stand for anything?

01:38:12.340 He seems to wishy-wash, vacillate back and forth.

01:38:17.720 He doesn't seem to be very passionate about his more conservative Republican ideology.

01:38:25.740 He's willing to go whichever way the wind blows.

01:38:31.340 And, you know, there's been controversy about whether Zoran Mamdani should attend the 9-11-25th anniversary memorial.

01:38:42.940 And some people say, why not?

01:38:46.560 He had nothing to do with it, you know.

01:38:51.080 Maybe.

01:38:51.640 maybe uh uh but he he has some close people in his circles that have quite literally blamed

01:39:02.800 america they have their own theories on what happened and uh they have said that the united

01:39:10.340 state deserved what happened to them on 9-11 um guilt by association yeah it's a thing

01:39:19.580 Unfortunately, it's a thing.

01:39:21.760 That's why a lot of comics left my side over the course of the years.

01:39:27.800 But, yeah, guilt by association.

01:39:29.540 They don't want that.

01:39:32.940 So, yeah, Curtis is saying, yeah, he should be.

01:39:38.100 Danny should be down there.

01:39:39.520 He's the mayor.

01:39:40.720 He won the election.

01:39:42.400 He should be there.

01:39:43.120 Just because he won the election and because he's the mayor

01:39:46.740 doesn't mean it's appropriate that he be down there,

01:39:50.460 especially when there are so many family members of the victims of 9-11

01:39:56.340 that don't want him to be there.

01:40:00.880 It's a sticky problem.

01:40:03.100 It's not something that has an easy answer to it.

01:40:06.400 But if you were running against Zoram Mdani on the Republican ticket,

01:40:11.040 I would think you would be of the mindset that,

01:40:14.460 no, screw this guy.

01:40:16.740 his ideology, things he says, things he believes in, 0.98

01:40:20.040 the people he surrounds himself with.

01:40:22.720 Tell me that this is somebody that the real victims of 9-11

01:40:29.260 and their families shouldn't have to have this guy milling about.

01:40:34.960 So we'll see what happens.

01:40:38.040 I'll play Curtis's clip after this break.

01:40:40.200 We'll be back in a minute.

01:40:42.140 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:40:46.740 the anthony cumia show get to uh curtis's clip in one second right after this because i just i

01:40:55.960 was scrolling through uh x during the break anthony cumia on x if you want to uh follow me and and see

01:41:03.820 what kind of nonsense i'm spewing when i'm not here on this very program but um big john cogs

01:41:13.500 Big John Coggs.

01:41:14.980 He's got a comment about the USS John F. Kennedy.

01:41:18.000 He says, I served on the USS John Kennedy.

01:41:20.980 Oh, yeah, the carrier.

01:41:22.480 Not the Abe Lincoln, but on the John Kennedy.

01:41:25.180 An aircraft carrier from 1981 to 1983.

01:41:29.100 The food was great.

01:41:30.040 The crew maintained the cleanliness of the ship.

01:41:33.000 The ship is not the problem.

01:41:34.980 It's the DEI crew.

01:41:37.500 These are guys that were out there years ago on these ships.

01:41:44.020 And, you know, I think people even know if they weren't in the military, have seen enough documentaries, heard from people, family members, friends that had been there.

01:41:57.600 This is what was done.

01:41:59.960 You were in charge of taking care of the ship.

01:42:03.360 You can't complain that the toilets are dirty.

01:42:05.980 you're the one that's supposed to be cleaning it this is the same uh thinking that a lot of these 0.98

01:42:13.540 dimwits these days have they live at home with mom and dad perhaps they're out protesting some 0.95

01:42:22.080 cause du jour they're yelling and screaming but they could always go home and get uh dinner mom

01:42:29.720 will cook them dinner and they won't clean their room mommy cleans their room and it's the same

01:42:36.200 mindset they go into the military and they're like why is the toilet dirty well you're supposed

01:42:41.660 to be cleaning it and the guy in charge is the one that's supposed to be telling you to clean it

01:42:48.160 so i don't know where this goes i guess we got to see but you got democrats after headset and trump

01:42:55.400 saying that this is disgraceful, these are soldiers,

01:42:58.760 and they should be treated in a way that can keep them combat ready and respect.

01:43:06.540 And then you've got the other people saying they're the ones

01:43:09.880 that are supposed to be doing the work.

01:43:12.880 There's an element of work here.

01:43:15.300 So I don't know, but that's a guy that was on a carrier back in the day,

01:43:19.820 and he goes, he used to run very well

01:43:22.860 when the people were doing what they were supposed to be doing.

01:43:26.800 All right, back to Curtis Lewa.

01:43:28.760 He says, Ma'am, Danny, no problem.

01:43:31.820 He should be at the 9-11-25th anniversary memorial,

01:43:35.860 and I just don't know what this guy stands for, if anything.

01:43:39.940 Let's listen to a little AC7's The Clip, a little Curtis Lewa.

01:43:46.000 What is your thoughts on the criticism of him,

01:43:48.580 Especially because in a lot of the cases, it's not anything he said.

01:43:51.940 It's an idea of who he is. 0.98

01:43:55.060 Ridiculous. 0.99

01:43:55.840 He's the mayor. 1.00

01:43:57.020 Stop being sore losers. 0.99

01:43:59.180 You knew this is Zoran Mandami. 1.00

01:44:01.520 He was never a fake, phony, fraudulent fugazi like a lot of politicians. 0.63

01:44:06.360 He told you who he was.

01:44:08.400 Once he got elected, you should have known he was going to be there at 9-11.

01:44:11.560 Now, if you choose to turn your back on him,

01:44:15.040 I don't want to ever tell family members what they should be doing on this highway.

01:44:18.580 That's your not holiday, but this solemn occasion. That's your choice. But I believe you respect the office. He's the mayor. He's representing the city.

01:44:29.120 And unlike what my former friend, Sid Rosenberg, did with Cuomo, that I think stopped him dead in his tracks,

01:44:39.000 I think it was 10 days before the election when they were joking around about what would happen in Mondami with the mayor on the occasion of 9-11.

01:44:49.940 You know, do you think that there'd be another 9-11?

01:44:53.360 Cuomo ended up laughing along with that shock shot.

01:44:56.760 But I think when he did internal polls, as we did, that really hurt him.

01:45:01.360 Because he was gaining momentum. 0.99

01:45:02.640 Remember, don't vote for Sliwa. 1.00

01:45:04.680 Vote for Sliwa. 0.86

01:45:05.640 Vote for Mondami.

01:45:06.660 He was gaining traction. 1.00

01:45:07.860 And then he made that stupid remark. 1.00

01:45:09.740 And then didn't handle it well. 1.00

01:45:11.560 And then Zorhan exploited the hell out of it, as he should. 0.70

01:45:14.900 That was Islamophobic.

01:45:16.440 He's the mayor.

01:45:17.080 Get used to it.

01:45:19.460 You could end the clip, yeah.

01:45:20.740 Yeah, he thinks Cuomo had a shot.

01:45:26.020 if, what, he didn't say that Zoran Mamdani might cause another 9-11,

01:45:33.280 which is a ridiculous thing to say, but obviously they were joking.

01:45:39.460 And what do you think, Curtis?

01:45:41.740 People that were going to vote for Zoran anyway

01:45:46.300 were thinking about maybe voting for Cuomo,

01:45:49.360 and then they heard that and went, oh, no.

01:45:50.960 everyone that was voting for who they were going to vote for was locked in locked in

01:45:57.800 the numbers were there and that was it it's over so uh i don't know and i love how he calls uh

01:46:07.280 sid a shock jock i was a shock jock damn it but that's uh that's kind of funny yeah there you go

01:46:18.420 Well, Curtis, I don't know what he's doing now, 0.99

01:46:22.340 marching in the gay parade. 0.97

01:46:24.040 Wasn't he marching in the gay parade? 0.95

01:46:25.740 It's not that he had it.

01:46:26.640 He was up on a float.

01:46:27.940 Yeah, I'm wearing my rainbow beret today

01:46:31.360 just in case any of you, you know,

01:46:35.160 lighten the loafers, get out of hand.

01:46:37.960 I could batches over the head.

01:50:10.400 they're not putting them on and going so you degenerate piece of garbage uh when you were uh 1.00

01:50:19.540 having sex with your brother's wife after your brother died uh were you did you know 1.00

01:50:26.720 what a piece of crap you were did you have that was that in your head at all or you're so 1.00

01:50:32.180 cracked out those should be the interviews but people are sitting him down and with good lighting 1.00

01:50:40.160 and and good equipment and multiple cameras so hunter um what do you think of the trump family 0.99

01:50:49.520 and he's like oh they're terrible awful oh he's garbage compared to my wonderful dad 0.95

01:50:56.380 and what he did for the country and who who's entertaining this guy 0.75

01:51:03.040 this hunter biden's a pariah but there he is doing the interview circuit he's on the podcasts and

01:51:14.060 news shows and uh no one wants to ask him you know the the the hard questions although when

01:51:23.640 it even gets a little tough he just falls back on well i was you know the terrible drug abuse

01:51:31.180 oh i'm so sorry the things i did just terrible i was out of control i understand that

01:51:38.280 And now through my sobriety.

01:51:40.980 And it excuses everything.

01:51:43.720 I'm not from that school of thought.

01:51:47.260 If you had a few drinks and you got yourself in a bit of a jam,

01:51:53.020 all right, I'm not without any forgiveness.

01:51:58.640 But this guy was out of control, completely out of control,

01:52:05.960 to the point where no one should even give him the time of day.

01:52:10.580 And he's still doing stuff.

01:52:13.420 He has a daughter that he had with a stripper

01:52:17.240 that has been disowned, completely disowned.

01:52:23.680 Does that little girl get to have her grandparents?

01:52:27.180 Maybe that's a good thing.

01:52:29.140 Maybe having her around Joe Biden,

01:52:32.640 maybe Hunter knew better.

01:52:34.560 but financially let's just say uh shouldn't the father have some be in that kid's life in some 1.00

01:52:42.980 respect i don't know but uh the guy is a complete piece of crap and they're putting him on and 0.99

01:52:52.100 having him talk they're they're loving it laughing along with hunter bide here's uh hunter i think 0.99

01:53:00.460 this is him talking about aoc look i had a bunch of clips about him talking about the trumps and

01:53:08.860 politics and the fact that the laptops were all fake he really wants us to believe that 1.00

01:53:16.760 it was some kind of ruse by the republicans now you tripped up you were an idiot you documented 1.00

01:53:25.720 what a piece of crap you were and some of the stuff is even worse than just being a piece of 1.00

01:53:31.220 crap i think uh his connections got him out of a lot more trouble than that we know about 1.00

01:53:40.700 but uh there it is so we have hunter biden here talking about aoc this proves what uh an imbecile 1.00

01:53:51.240 besides being a drug addict 1.00

01:53:53.940 and a piece of crap 1.00

01:53:54.740 what an imbecile this guy is 1.00

01:53:56.520 he's talking up AOC 1.00

01:53:58.100 like she's the face and voice

01:54:00.520 and the person of the future

01:54:03.080 of the Democrat Party

01:54:05.240 let's listen to this one

01:54:06.440 but that other person

01:54:09.040 that I think is in it for that reason

01:54:10.720 is AOC

01:54:14.060 I look at her

01:54:16.480 and I think that

01:54:17.940 and I see the future of the Democratic Party

01:54:21.820 in every way.

01:54:24.520 I think that AOC not only as a communicator

01:54:26.820 but as someone that can

01:54:27.980 that has an instinct

01:54:30.680 to find

01:54:32.100 common ground.

01:54:33.860 What?

01:54:34.500 That believes that

01:54:37.080 we do have to

01:54:40.100 have some kind of radical change

01:54:43.020 and that's not a radical thing to say.

01:54:44.900 It's not a radical thing to say that the system

01:54:46.700 is completely broken.

01:54:47.940 It doesn't work. The idea that 80 percent of Americans could believe that, you know, the health care is a fundamental right, but we still don't have a universal health care.

01:54:57.880 80% believe we should have ID to vote also.

01:55:01.740 It's crazy.

01:55:03.100 The idea that 80% of Americans believe that there should be some accountability for the corporations that are poisoning our children's mind,

01:55:15.720 literally leading to suicide in the form of social media companies.

01:55:21.000 He doesn't like when pictures of him turn up on X.

01:55:24.320 That's what that means.

01:55:27.160 That's what that means.

01:55:28.760 Hunter's like, oh, kids, they're offing themselves because of social media.

01:55:34.020 It's like, nah, you just don't like that X had every single thing you did

01:55:39.760 that was on your laptop, was splayed out for the world to see.

01:55:46.900 That's your problem with X, isn't it?

01:55:50.240 Social media, isn't it?

01:55:53.160 And, you know, he won't bring up that it's crazy that 80% of the people want voter ID.

01:56:01.940 Well, why'd you leave that out?

01:56:03.140 You kept going with the 80% thing.

01:56:05.780 Hmm.

01:56:06.560 I wonder why.

01:56:08.700 But just thinking AOC is the, she's the common voice or the moderate.

01:56:17.660 Are you out of your mind?

01:56:19.980 You know why he's saying this? 0.80

01:56:21.680 because there are these commies now, these Democrats, socialists of America,

01:56:27.600 and they're now the extreme extremists.

01:56:33.240 You know, they could be looked at like, whoa, and AOC could come in and go,

01:56:36.840 well, you know, I'm not into that. 0.97

01:56:40.840 And then she can look like the moderate because she's not literally a communist.

01:56:46.340 That's a moderate in the Democrat Party.

01:56:49.340 if you're not a communist you're a moderate uh but really aoc hunter that's that's who you see

01:56:57.380 is he just trying to get laid maybe he's just trying to get an in hey did you hear what i 0.77

01:57:02.620 said about you yeah you know where i could get some blow uh aoc by the way she just she's putting 1.00

01:57:12.840 We have video clips of her preparing, hormonally preparing, taking injections and whatnot, to freeze her eggs. 0.99

01:57:22.360 This is attention whoring at levels that are unprecedented. 0.99

01:57:28.960 But there she is, injecting her belly with hormones. 1.00

01:57:35.400 I guess that's part of the process of harvesting your eggs to freeze them. 1.00

01:57:41.180 so you could be an old bat mom so you could go to a parent-teacher conference and they go oh 1.00

01:57:47.500 you brought your grandma today that's so sad for a kid nothing worse than the old parents 0.94

01:57:54.840 uh when when the kid is in school elementary school for god's sake and a parent-teacher 1.00

01:58:33.560 high chair because you're so selfish you can't have it both ways you can't then uh freeze your

01:58:44.820 eggs thaw them out have a kid and now you put the burden on that kid to have to grow up with a

01:58:54.300 parent that they are going to lose very young in their lives and everything they do with a parent

01:59:02.520 when they see their friends interacting with their parents they're young and vital and vibrant and

01:59:10.500 another v word vivacious and uh what happens there's your grandma mom sitting down i can't

01:59:21.380 my sciatica is acting up and the poor kid's like what did i do to deserve this

02:00:55.300 and you buy a house close enough to the beach that your cook could drown

02:01:00.420 you know how hard it is to have a house close enough to the water that your cook can drown

02:01:08.520 in that very water oh my god if you're inland the cook has to go to the get an uber drive to the

02:01:19.220 beach whatever it is he took a lazy little stroll out in a drown or so they say but uh yeah all these

02:01:28.980 people talking about how climate change was going to destroy the world they're doing things that

02:01:34.880 indicate they have complete faith that we will just keep rolling on but they tell you that you

02:01:41.960 have to change everything you do and you have to pay extra taxes and you can't have a car that

02:01:46.540 goes fast because the emissions and all that nonsense oh god i can't stand them all right

02:01:53.500 plenty more don't go anywhere back in a flash it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple podcast

02:02:01.040 network the anthony comia show thanks for sticking in there with us uh for this sunday evening it's

02:02:11.180 greatly appreciated let's see if anyone's on the phone that wants to uh there you go mike

02:02:15.980 mike in the bronx what's up good evening i'm just wondering why we were wasn't primary

02:02:25.140 It's like the Republicans just give up on New York.

02:02:28.560 They have nobody opposing the Democrats.

02:02:31.240 When I went to vote, there was a whole line of Democrat candidates for judges, for this and that.

02:02:38.540 And if you look at the Republican line, there was nobody there to oppose them.

02:02:43.440 And it just gets me pissed off.

02:02:46.000 You know, I've been doing this for three years.

02:02:47.640 And then, you know, I voted for Trump.

02:02:49.960 I'm a Democrat, but I've been voting Republican since Trump in 2016.

02:02:56.860 And it's just that the Republicans aren't backing me. 0.99

02:03:00.080 It's like, oh, Slewa was not the choice.

02:03:03.080 None of them were choices.

02:03:04.740 And then Cuomo, now Cuomo and Adams lost to Monami.

02:03:09.000 So why did they run again? 0.99

02:03:10.520 They were losers in the beginning.

02:03:12.560 They're going to lose to him again.

02:03:13.940 So it's not that I don't believe that Curtis was the wrong person here,

02:03:21.120 but you can't blame Curtis for the Republicans not doing anything about this.

02:03:25.940 Now, how do they not put a viable candidate up in the primary,

02:03:30.900 and we end up with, yeah, Curtis Lewa.

02:03:33.420 Look, whatever he is, it's Curtis.

02:03:36.400 We've known him forever in New York City.

02:03:39.380 So it's not like it was a surprise.

02:03:41.480 How do you not primary Curtis Lewa with a Republican candidate that could have had a better chance?

02:03:50.000 They dropped the ball.

02:03:51.820 They don't even care about New York City.

02:03:55.240 They don't even care about having a candidate for New York City.

02:03:58.160 They've given it up.

02:03:59.480 They've cast it off.

02:04:02.060 And, you know, we are not going to see another Republican as the mayor of New York City in quite some time.

02:04:09.580 i'm going i'm going through hell over here i just got my med i was on medicaid medicare

02:04:16.920 because i couldn't recertify quick enough they took away my medical but i'm sure when an illegal

02:04:24.520 and i know an illegal doesn't have to go recertify they get medical for free i go to the

02:04:30.740 foods i go to the stores and i see them come out with two thousand dollar food stamp cards

02:04:36.380 you know and i i they deny me i'm an american citizen for 70 years and they deny me food my

02:04:43.540 wife died in 2024 so i'm sorry to hear that michael they take away her social security

02:04:51.080 so now we were living on two incomes and now i'm living on one income well are you supposed to get

02:04:58.660 that aren't you supposed to get like the social security after a spouse passes away no sir what

02:05:05.780 you get is uh if you're both on social security they tell you you can take the the uh the biggest

02:05:12.980 one the more money yeah take the big one take the big one right up the keister there michael

02:05:25.460 denying me food stamps they're denying me medicaid medicare they're denying me her social

02:05:31.460 security if it was a pension i would social security supposed to be a pension and i should

02:05:37.660 have been entitled to a pension it shouldn't have ended when she died well if it's any consolation

02:05:43.640 michael if it's any consolation you could just know that at least an illegal is getting everything

02:05:49.880 you need and more from the government that should be giving you that so you could go to you sleep

02:05:55.960 Keep easy knowing that that's going on. 0.90

02:05:58.340 And Huckle gives $8 billion to house illegals who aren't even citizens. 0.78

02:06:05.580 She's spending $8 billion on non-citizens, and I'm over here starving, looking for food.

02:06:12.300 And that $8 billion could have given money to senior citizens and homeless and veterans.

02:06:17.840 Michael, do you see the other thing she did? 0.92

02:06:19.540 She's using New York taxpayer money to make sure that the illegals have lawyers so that they could fill out all the paperwork and everything they need to get all of the stuff that they won't give you an American citizen.

02:06:33.720 Isn't that so great of her?

02:06:36.200 Can I ask you one question, please?

02:06:40.100 I voted for Trump three years, all three times.

02:06:44.440 Me and Alicia voted for Trump when in November 9th of 2024.

02:06:48.820 At least she had died because she took the pneumococcal vaccine.

02:06:52.700 Oh, my God.

02:06:53.020 And it gave her interstitial lung disease, fibrosis of the lungs.

02:06:57.880 She had a three-to-five-year death sentence.

02:07:01.880 There was no cure for that.

02:07:03.340 We got no hope from anybody.

02:07:05.820 The doctors say it's an idiopathic disease.

02:07:08.720 I go, wait a minute.

02:07:09.520 She takes the drug in 2019.

02:07:10.400 My old radio partner was idiopathic.

02:07:13.340 Anyway, what's that, Michael? 0.99

02:07:15.380 She takes the drug. 0.97

02:07:16.580 She takes the vaccine in 2019.

02:07:19.380 She dies in 24.

02:07:21.280 Oh, that's a little coincidental.

02:07:23.340 It wasn't that.

02:07:24.880 And now what's the term? 0.97

02:07:25.980 We were gaslighting instead of saying, you just lied to me that that drug killed my white wife. 0.97

02:07:31.540 Oh, boy. 0.82

02:07:32.520 You'll never win that battle.

02:07:34.480 You'll never win that battle, Michael.

02:07:36.240 Sorry to say.

02:07:38.960 Okay.

02:07:39.780 The main question I want to ask you.

02:07:41.520 Yes, sir.

02:07:42.040 I'm sorry to get off on a tangent.

02:07:44.380 uh we voted for trump three years when november came of 24 ali was crying she said oh it's over

02:07:54.220 it's over we won this nonsense is over i'm afraid i can't tell her but then then trump goes away

02:08:01.140 when it came to the gas now this is why everybody can yell at me and all this and disagree with me

02:08:06.520 but mr trump you don't tell people in regard to the high gas you don't tell people to suck it up

02:08:14.120 He said that, yeah, he said, look, it's going to be more expensive.

02:08:19.660 If you want to support the denuclearization of Iran, you've got to pay a little more for gas.

02:08:27.220 And no, no, we didn't.

02:08:29.560 That's not what we voted for.

02:08:31.880 I love Trump.

02:08:33.020 I support Trump.

02:08:34.080 I voted for him.

02:08:35.180 If he could run another term, I'd probably vote for him again.

02:08:38.120 All I'm saying is I disagree with a few things that are going on in that White House right now, as I'm sure you are, Michael. 0.94

02:08:47.080 And the fact that we've got to suck up gas prices because of Iran. 0.85

02:08:52.160 What happened to drill, baby, drill? 0.99

02:08:54.240 What happened to refine, refine, refine?

02:08:56.420 What happened to our emergency fuel supplies and the fact that we are the number one fuel producer?

02:09:03.380 What happened to we now have carte blanche over the oil from Venezuela? 1.00

02:09:08.120 All this shit. 1.00

02:09:09.440 Oh, my God, I cursed. 1.00

02:09:10.840 I think I cursed.

02:09:12.200 Oh, my God, dump out of me.

02:09:14.220 You got it?

02:09:15.580 I'm having such a good moment here, conversation with Michael.

02:09:19.600 I actually dropped an S-bomb.

02:09:21.940 I apologize.

02:09:23.000 How unprofessional of me.

02:09:24.780 But, yeah, all of this stuff that's been going on,

02:09:27.780 we shouldn't be paying any more than we were paying before this war.

02:09:35.680 but it sounds like an excuse michael i believe that one statement cost us the midterm elections

02:09:43.060 really i think so i think this whole well the whole iran thing is not good oh here's another

02:09:50.380 that statement when he went to china okay remember when he went to china and they were kissing his 0.90

02:09:57.300 butt yep all of a sudden when he came back from china he stopped bombing right i don't know i 0.96

02:10:04.480 I guess maybe they said something to him. 0.57

02:10:08.700 Yeah, I hear you.

02:10:10.720 Michael, I got to move along. 0.65

02:10:14.560 I'm a potty mouth on the phone with you.

02:10:16.680 Thank you, Michael.

02:10:18.180 Michael gets me to where I'm a potty mouth.

02:10:20.740 What am I doing?

02:10:21.460 I thought I was on satellite radio or the Internet or something.

02:10:27.080 All right, got like a minute or two here.

02:10:30.360 I want to get talking about Al Sharpton.

02:10:34.480 After the break, Reverend Al Sharpton, you know, he kind of took a back seat to Benjamin Crump for a while.

02:10:41.500 And I think it was upsetting him that Ben was getting all the heat, all the press and the money, of course, backing all these poor black families that have lost kids to violence and some of them that lost kids to drowning, that they want it to be violence.

02:11:01.260 But Reverend Al said, I'm not letting this Benjamin Crump take all the credit and the money.

02:11:08.320 I'm getting in there.

02:11:09.940 So Reverend Al, I have a clip from him.

02:11:14.000 We'll play it after the break.

02:11:15.560 But he's talking about he wants a full investigation.

02:11:21.680 And I don't even know what that entails anymore.

02:11:24.820 There are unanswered questions.

02:11:28.260 Yeah, because you don't want to look at the fact that he drowned,

02:11:33.200 an accidental drowning,

02:11:34.700 because there's no questions if you go with that.

02:11:38.320 There's only questions if you try to make up a murder.

02:11:41.340 Anyway, we'll play that next.

02:11:43.700 Be right back.

02:11:44.820 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

02:11:51.320 The Anthony Cumia Show. 0.80

02:11:52.980 Just talking with the guys in the booth about slipping the S-bomb out there during that last phone call.

02:12:00.040 It just feels so natural to talk.

02:12:02.700 We were kind of talking about how the FCC, it's like, you've got to kind of, I don't know.

02:12:10.700 Doesn't it seem a little archaic?

02:12:12.700 Doesn't it seem like something that the Internet shows, podcasts, they say whatever they want.

02:12:18.060 They get advertisers.

02:12:19.080 So it's not like the advertisers are shying away from language anymore.

02:12:24.380 And the president drops F-bombs on television during his speeches and things.

02:12:32.740 Aren't we kind of at the point where some crazy DJ on some radio station,

02:12:39.540 it's not all that big a deal if he says the dreaded S word?

02:12:45.060 I don't know.

02:12:45.560 that has been a long time uh with no change whatsoever so we'll see maybe maybe uh so

02:12:54.060 reverend al reverend al wants a full investigation of the nolan wells death he uh of course was off

02:13:01.080 of uh the mississippi coast on horn island on the fourth of july with his friends who happen to be

02:13:08.720 white kids and uh the white kids made it back and he was found nolan wells was found on the beach

02:13:15.420 a few days later, a couple of days later, drowned.

02:13:19.080 So it's what we have so far with the evidence, the autopsy,

02:13:24.980 limited information has come out about it.

02:13:27.680 But it's tragic.

02:13:30.160 Young people, guys especially, 4th of July on a boat, you're drinking.

02:13:37.860 I mean, it happens a lot.

02:13:40.280 But there is a certain segment of society and people like Reverend Al Sharpton and Benjamin Crump that want so badly for this to be some type of racially based murder. 0.88

02:13:54.760 They need it. 0.77

02:13:56.560 Their lives, their careers depend on racially based assaults, murders, deaths, whatever it is.

02:14:07.380 so uh reverend al has been i'm proud of al he's not letting ben just take the lead on this one

02:14:14.600 he's popping in and and doing what he used to do best it's like watching an old fighter

02:14:19.580 get up there and get a few shots in you go al so here's reverend al and he's got

02:14:26.480 some ideas if the democrats happen to win in the midterms and um he might uh be able to have some 0.73

02:14:35.080 friendly faces in the administration to investigate this heinous racial crime. 0.88

02:14:46.460 Reverend Al? 0.95

02:14:48.400 I don't know what happened, but I've got your history in Mississippi. 0.84

02:14:53.120 And the history tells me black boys go out with three white kids,

02:14:58.040 three white kids come back.

02:14:59.780 There's a blurred story of what happened.

02:15:01.520 Now you're all hostile.

02:15:03.100 Could you pause this for a second, please?

02:15:04.520 i know your history this is so funny mississippi obviously going back to the jim crow days and

02:15:15.820 the the civil rights uh protests and the violence in the 60s mississippi was hardcore yes reverend

02:15:26.280 yes uh in 2026 he's trying to use mississippi's past

02:15:37.100 for some example of what could happen now or what did happen you take the 60s the 50s and 60s

02:15:47.540 mississippi and the violence and and the crimes perpetrated against black people and and then

02:15:55.420 you try to equate it to a bunch of kids that get along great in a boat on the 4th of july in 2025

02:16:01.780 oh reverend al this is a tough one for me to jump on board with no pun intended but uh let's listen

02:16:10.300 to the rest maybe he he says something smart but then you had the keys some about this don't make

02:16:18.060 sense given your history and i'm gonna stay on this until we find out what happened it may be

02:16:25.400 nothing but we're not gonna leave that up to chance with people that are distorted we gonna

02:16:30.780 stay on this case and lastly lastly since they want to talk about losses one of the things tying

02:16:40.440 your morning together tiffany they may come back as you suggested playing right-wing politics with

02:16:49.000 this with the local prosecutor, maybe even with the federal people. But if we have a change in

02:16:57.200 January and there is a Democratic House, I said that if Hakeem becomes the speaker, he needs to

02:17:07.340 have the chair of judiciary, subpoena them to the Judiciary Department, testify. No, that's what this

02:17:14.220 vote means we need to have a check and balance of government so that we got somewhere to go

02:17:20.440 we can't depend to go to trump's justice department so we need to really mobilize

02:17:25.740 so people like these two parents can protect their children yeah absolutely yeah yeah reverend

02:17:33.180 now i'm outraged i am outraged reverend al sharpton uh he wants hakeem jeffries

02:17:42.920 first he's he's making all these scenarios where the democrats went god please no hakeem jeffries

02:17:50.380 becomes the speaker of the house and then some type of what congressional investigation is done

02:17:58.140 on the the uh nolan wells case where i mean every ounce of evidence points to a tragic drowning of

02:18:09.760 a young man that was drunk with his buddies on a boat this isn't some you don't have to reach

02:18:16.620 to some crazy places to come to that conclusion if there was a true inkling of any misdeeds

02:18:26.120 wrongdoing foul play uh believe me they'd have been all over it but it's all of this rumor and

02:18:34.060 innuendo and outright lies that are going on with this um investigation and it makes me laugh when

02:18:42.800 they say so many unanswered questions doesn't the family deserve answers to their questions

02:18:51.260 like yeah they do the answer is that he died when he drowned from drinking and stumbling on a beach

02:19:03.400 whatever it was that's the answer now that's not the answer you want it's very hard to get the

02:19:12.980 answers to the questions that don't jibe with what happened they want answers okay what to what

02:19:22.180 questions well how did these white boys kill uh nolan wells oh well they didn't now answers

02:19:30.500 i want answers yeah you're you're not getting the answers you want is the problem there are plenty

02:19:38.600 answers out there but that's reverend al good to see him poking his beak in there and not letting 0.79

02:19:44.140 ben crump take all the uh glory and money that uh is to be made uh you know black uh young black

02:19:54.240 men aren't the only ones that are uh in danger from white people especially uh margaret cho 0.81

02:20:02.520 says that the transgender community is in grave danger grave danger and i'm thinking like from

02:20:12.580 what you know they walk down the street and somebody just sees them and hurts them they go

02:20:20.340 on a date they don't tell the person right away there's some animosity there oh these things

02:20:26.480 happen all the time so what what is that what margaret chose talking about no no no you know

02:20:31.800 what's killing trans people comedy that's right comedy here's uh ac8 is the clip here's margaret

02:20:42.920 cho talking about uh the dangers of comedy when it comes to trans people or even like talking 0.61

02:20:50.020 about trans people yes i think trans lives has become a very big thing in comedy because they

02:20:56.900 want to contest it they want they don't understand that when you take trans lives lightly in a comedy

02:21:04.240 routine trans people die and they don't have that understanding that like this is you there are real

02:21:10.200 consequences to your actions just because they don't affect you personally but this will affect

02:21:14.520 a trans person's life oh that'll affect so when a comic goes up on stage and makes jokes uh and

02:21:23.300 does a bit or a scenario whatever sketch if it's a tv or a podcast show uh you are directly

02:21:32.380 responsible for the murder of transgender people uh there's no place in comedy for

02:21:43.240 making light of transgender people uh that's what margaret cho thinks i think that a lot of comics 0.86

02:21:52.200 use transgender people in their various acts

02:21:55.680 for one reason, because it's hilarious. 0.89

02:22:00.260 It's always been funny 0.95

02:22:02.280 to see a guy dressed like a woman. 1.00

02:22:06.860 I'm not talking about passable transgender people 1.00

02:22:10.500 who most likely have some biological anomaly. 0.85

02:22:15.720 One in a billion.

02:22:17.660 And you go, oh my God, that really does look 1.00

02:22:21.440 act like a woman still you know genetically biologically whatever uh but some people are 0.53

02:22:29.800 okay that's one in a million the vast majority are mentally ill gentlemen who crave some type 0.97

02:22:38.860 of attention have some latent homosexual tendencies whatever it may be and when they 0.97

02:22:46.580 go out with that male pattern baldness skullet and the rouge on their whiskers and how are you

02:22:57.060 not laughing and if we think back to relatively speaking not that long ago it was comedy you

02:23:06.200 watched you know uncle milty if i may uh uh date myself on the texaco star theater

02:23:14.920 that's way before my time kids maybe some of the listeners of this very program might have watched

02:23:22.860 those as children but i didn't but i know about it i'm a student of television but uh one of the

02:23:30.600 funniest things these old school guys like milton burrell and they uh uh what's his name benny not

02:23:38.300 Benny Goodman, whatever, Bob Hope, all those guys.

02:23:43.600 What's that?

02:23:45.080 Jack Benny.

02:23:46.000 Thank you, studio.

02:23:47.600 Jack Benny. 1.00

02:23:49.020 One of the funniest things they could do was dress like women. 1.00

02:23:53.660 It got raves. 1.00

02:23:55.020 It got laughs.

02:23:55.980 They all laughed.

02:23:56.900 You know why?

02:23:57.380 Because it's funny. 0.99

02:23:58.880 It's so funny, especially when you see it's a guy dressed like a woman.

02:24:05.380 That's hilarious. 0.95

02:24:07.080 Clinger on M.A.S.H., of course. 1.00

02:24:09.760 Bosom Buddies was another one. 0.77

02:24:13.280 This was a staple of comedy.

02:24:18.120 And now we're being told to throw all that away.

02:24:23.020 That meant nothing.

02:24:24.320 That was never funny.

02:24:26.580 It's hurtful and, more importantly, deadly.

02:24:31.220 Quite deadly.

02:24:32.200 oh he was killed by a bosom buddy reference so uh margaret show she's just another one of these

02:24:40.920 and you know what it is i'll be honest with you it's liberal comics like margaret show

02:24:47.340 there's a load of them and by the way they were very popular just a few years ago they were the

02:24:55.140 ones getting the gigs they were the ones being able to trash talk uh the right-wing people 0.97

02:25:03.360 uh trash talk calling everyone racist and sexist and homophobic transphobic all the 0.98

02:25:10.500 phobes and ists uh and now the pendulum has kind of taken that swing the other way 0.98

02:25:18.520 and you're seeing other comics that are getting very very popular and they're talking about

02:25:26.400 racial stereotypes uh women sexual stereotypes and transgender people and people like margaret

02:25:36.760 cho and these other comics i think they hate it more because they've had to take a back seat to

02:25:42.560 these comics then their real feelings about how it's hurting the transgender community and

02:25:50.260 minorities and they just don't like the fact that the club owners aren't calling them as much

02:25:56.280 and they're not paying them as much and then shane gillis and company big j okerson and

02:26:03.320 and all the other comics that joined Shane Gillis

02:26:08.060 with 73,000 people in a stadium,

02:26:14.380 a football stadium in Philly,

02:26:17.120 they look at that and go,

02:26:18.240 huh, maybe they are funny to joke about.

02:26:24.060 Huh.

02:26:25.140 I've seen Shane make some transgender jokes

02:26:28.000 and racial jokes and whatnot.

02:26:30.260 And there he is in front of over 70,000 people in a football stadium packed.

02:26:39.420 And they loved every second of it.

02:26:42.200 And I think that has Margaret Cho annoyed a little more than transgender people being made light of on stage. 0.99

02:26:52.640 But, yeah, that's how it's going. 0.99

02:26:56.320 Let me see.

02:26:57.620 Who is that?

02:27:01.000 That might be interesting.

02:27:03.040 Joaquin, of course, Joaquin.

02:27:05.240 How could I do a Sunday show without Joaquin from Pennsylvania?

02:27:09.320 How you doing, Joaquin?

02:27:10.800 All right, Anthony.

02:27:11.940 How about you?

02:27:12.820 Good, good.

02:27:13.380 I really want to congratulate you.

02:27:15.720 You joined the same club as my good friend, Sander, the Potty Mouth Club.

02:27:19.420 Ah, it happens.

02:27:21.760 I'm sorry, Sander, just making a joke.

02:27:24.320 But anyway, I got to say, your topics, you know, I thought about talking about things,

02:27:28.620 but they evolved like, you know, man did from Neanderthal to white homocapians.

02:27:32.380 Yes, yes.

02:27:33.100 I don't like sticking any one thing too long.

02:27:35.660 You know that, Joaquin.

02:27:37.420 And then also I was thinking about, can you imagine Hunter Biden doing belly shots

02:27:41.500 off of AOC and then bending her off and snorting lines of coke from the crooks of her back? 0.97

02:27:47.240 You know, that would be a viral video I think a lot of people would probably check out. 0.58

02:27:53.160 And who knows? 1.00

02:27:54.240 She's single now. 1.00

02:27:55.540 She ditched her boyfriend. 0.99

02:27:57.760 She's on the prowl.

02:27:59.700 Hunter's out there.

02:28:00.880 He's laying the foundation.

02:28:03.280 He's trying to, you know, she's great.

02:28:05.160 She's the one.

02:28:05.940 So who knows?

02:28:07.320 Who knows what might happen?

02:28:09.280 Now, also, too, I would really love to welcome my new neighbor, Susan,

02:28:12.740 to the neighborhood.

02:28:13.900 I'm glad to hear that she's coming out to Pennsylvania.

02:28:17.240 Yeah, I thought that, yeah.

02:28:19.320 As a matter of fact, I do a spot on Walter Sterling Trucker stories,

02:28:22.100 and I'm planning on making a stop in Corning tonight.

02:28:25.800 There you go.

02:28:26.480 Maybe you could pick her up, throw in the sleeper, and take her to the Commonwealth.

02:28:31.820 So anyway, you know what?

02:28:33.160 The DSA is not the DSA. 0.89

02:28:34.900 I call it the D-I-S-A, the Democratic Islamic Socialists of America. 1.00

02:28:38.660 Oh, good point. 1.00

02:28:39.880 Yes, they're all linked up with the Islamic community. 1.00

02:28:45.060 They're looking to overthrow this country. 1.00

02:28:47.040 I'm sorry.

02:28:47.540 I can't help it.

02:28:48.260 I'm an Islamophobe. 1.00

02:28:49.620 Every time I watch imams on social media, they tell you exactly what they're doing. 1.00

02:28:53.520 to have an 8, 9, 10 kids, you know, 1.00

02:28:55.300 when they're planning on taking over this country.

02:28:57.240 It's justified.

02:28:58.300 And then you're going to take your faking away, you know?

02:28:59.860 It's justified. 1.00

02:29:00.480 They try to present Islam, people that have come here 1.00

02:29:06.580 directly from these third world Islamic nations,

02:29:09.980 and they try to present it like they were people

02:29:12.920 that came from Ireland back in the 1800s

02:29:16.820 as immigrants looking for a better life. 1.00

02:29:18.860 That ain't it. 1.00

02:29:19.760 They are here specifically to do damage to our institutions and everything that makes America, America. 0.98

02:29:28.880 And the people that are just kissing their butts and inviting them in and drooling over them and patting them on the head are disgusting because they're not seeing that it's completely different. 0.95

02:29:42.680 I'm not saying that there aren't immigrants that have contributed and will contribute to this country. 1.00

02:29:48.680 But Islam is such an alien life form to our way of life that the only reason they could possibly be here is to screw up what we have going and convert us into what they feel is what the entire earth should be, Islam. 1.00

02:30:10.860 Exactly. 1.00

02:30:11.840 Yeah, no, they make that plain. 0.99

02:30:13.520 Either submit to Islam and Sharia law or die.

02:30:15.980 You know, that's exactly what the Koran tells them. 0.90

02:30:18.300 Yeah. And, you know, as far as Iran goes, Trump, I think somebody's controlling him because he should have taken Iran out from the very beginning.

02:30:26.640 Should have never given them a chance. Should have totally decimated them, taking Cargill Island, you know, and all or nothing.

02:30:32.680 All or nothing, Joaquin. Either go in there, balls out and get the job done or don't go in at all.

02:30:39.400 this has gone on and it relatively speaking it hasn't really gone on that long but it's too long

02:30:45.660 for whatever the mission was supposed to be which still i don't even really know what the mission is

02:30:51.080 uh no nukes all right i thought we bombed the centrifuges and the enrichment's plant enrichment

02:30:57.740 plants and whatnot but why are we still there why are we still about what are we waiting for them to

02:31:02.880 capitulate to i'm not i'm not in complete isolationist because i believe that they are

02:31:07.700 responsible for much of the terrorist activities that go on around the world yeah of course now

02:31:12.100 they're causing problems in the space yeah yeah so they should have been totally destroyed from

02:31:16.580 the very beginning you know um that and i just can't help but feel that there are people out

02:31:21.200 there controlling trump you know that that that stopped him from doing what it certainly would

02:31:25.940 seem that way i don't know i'm not going to make any solid accusations but man it's kind of a

02:31:32.120 different trump than 2016 but uh i gotta i gotta uh take off i got a break to do joaquin thanks for

02:31:37.920 the uh call and we'll be right back it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple podcast network

02:32:42.600 that make little pakistan such a special part of new york thank you kate thank you kate hochel

02:32:52.300 uh so i i've been seeing this for quite some time her entire tenure as governor she shows up at these 0.64

02:33:03.100 these cultural ethnic events and uh she marches along with of course her unbelievable security 1.00

02:33:14.400 team because perish the thought she should be around any pakistanis without her new york state

02:33:21.000 troopers in plain clothes ready to blast somebody that looks at her sideways but uh i'm looking at

02:33:28.380 the picture she's marching there's guys wearing those pajamas i'll tell you what though what a

02:33:36.120 comfortable lifestyle being a pakistani gentleman you just wear pajamas and slippers all day

02:33:43.840 all day long and it's accepted like i could do it but i think i'd catch some heat from friends

02:33:53.360 and family if you're not pakistani it's called being a mental patient you could wear pajamas 0.97

02:34:00.100 and slippers all day you're insane but for pakistani guys god that looks comfortable 0.92

02:34:06.440 it's like that sheet material nice so there she is she's uh she's out and about shaking hands i'm 0.90

02:34:15.020 looking at this picture big pakistani flag behind her she's dressed in the white and green colors

02:34:23.120 of the pakistani flag big smile on her face here she is with a tiny little pakistani tyke

02:34:32.380 she's bent over so she can get right a good handshake and a look in the little kid's face 1.00

02:34:38.440 they're all wearing that the women behind her are wrapped up like burritos and there she is

02:34:46.480 so she goes to a lot of these things and so i'm like huh i'm italian anthony comia

02:34:55.960 um uh my father was sicilian my mom and uh i remember the big thing to go to in new york city

02:35:05.980 was the san janeiro feast the feast of san janeiro you'd go to little italy and uh all the food the

02:35:15.840 the games that you couldn't possibly win because the mob ran them all right you got to take the

02:35:21.120 bad with the good how much are they making on the pop the balloons with your darts game do you really

02:35:26.940 have to rig that sal but uh it is what it is it's uh the italian culture big so i i checked i went

02:35:36.940 on grok x's ai uh app and i said has has kathy hochel ever been to a san janeiro festival the

02:35:50.060 answer was no. She's never been to the San Gennaro feast. Everything else, Dominican,

02:36:00.560 Haitian, Hispanic, Puerto Rican, African, Caribbean, all of those. She shows her mug.

02:36:10.900 But this woman hates Italians. She's prejudiced against Italians in this day. Can you believe 0.99

02:36:17.920 it prejudice against italians so um yeah screw her that's what i say as far as her uh her take on 1.00

02:36:28.700 ethnic uh festivals parades things like that i didn't hear her uh hooting and hollering when 0.86

02:36:37.640 they wanted to tear down columbus's statue either so i have to assume she's prejudice

02:36:43.240 against the Italians.
