00:02:16.100 Hello.

00:02:17.880 I hope you're having a great weekend.

00:02:20.400 Still got a little bit of it left, a little chunk of it left with a Sunday evening,

00:02:24.780 and I'm glad you've decided to spend some of that with me, Anthony Cumia.

00:02:31.360 Thank you so much.

00:02:33.400 Don't forget, if you want to call any time during this program

00:02:38.380 and discuss what we're talking about, what you want to talk about, anything,

00:02:43.100 800-848-9222, and we'll pop down the phone line

00:02:49.060 and see what you're thinking about a lot of what's going on.

00:02:53.300 It's still so light out.

00:02:56.360 It's just such a great thing.

00:03:00.080 I sure hope Trump goes through with that

00:03:02.080 and we don't have to set the clocks.

00:03:05.400 What is it, fall back again at the end of the summer?

00:03:08.840 I like a good light evening.

00:03:12.800 Yes, indeed.

00:03:14.540 Anyway, boy, a few topics that have the country in, may I use some harsh language,

00:03:22.440 tizzy has our country in a tizzy.

00:03:26.720 First of which, of course, the Carmelo Anthony murder trial.

00:03:32.940 Oh, yeah.

00:03:34.380 I have been going through social media and oof.

00:03:38.040 the second you think you know you might see a a nice scene playing out of people getting along

00:03:47.880 people of diverse races and backgrounds and you know you're walking around you see something

00:03:54.860 that that was nice that was nice to see oh my goodness you wouldn't think that's uh based in

00:04:01.480 any reality by going through social media especially where this Carmelo Anthony trial

00:04:08.340 is concerned the division is firmly firmly divided between the races on this one at least on social

00:04:19.380 media and I'm not saying that that is the be all end all of how of the accuracy of how we get along

00:04:29.140 as a people in this country but you know it's just another thing thrown into the uh already

00:04:36.960 shaky works another uh another wrench thrown into the machine and uh it just seems to be dividing

00:04:45.360 more people and putting even a bigger wedge between uh black people and white people in this

00:04:52.480 country and then there's the division between black people and asian people because of the 0.89

00:04:58.740 chow verdict that came out uh recently a store owner shot and killed a young black man

00:05:07.120 that apparently had a gun was he running away was he pointing the gun at uh mr chow

00:05:15.220 uh apparently apparently so i don't know i really didn't delve into that case as much

00:05:21.700 truthfully i didn't even hear much about that case until the verdict came out and everyone said

00:05:28.740 Well, both sides, again, divided by race and started either celebrating or complaining.

00:05:36.940 But now there's a whole movement where black people don't want to frequent Asian businesses. 0.84

00:05:46.660 They don't want to do any business with Asian people.

00:05:50.400 And it's, like I said, just another division, another line of division.

00:05:54.700 and uh you know if you know anything about asians and black neighborhoods asians are pretty much 1.00

00:06:02.420 running every business in black neighborhoods it's like all the restaurants the hair places

00:06:08.900 the nail places uh so i think their boycott on this is going to be very difficult unless they

00:06:16.260 could find businesses in the community run by people in the community but uh that's

00:06:23.680 That had happened a couple of weeks ago, a week ago or so.

00:06:26.740 And now we have the Carmelo Anthony trial.

00:06:32.360 And from what I'm reading on social media, there are a couple of camps here.

00:06:39.580 There's people that are completely basing every opinion they have on race.

00:06:47.640 That's it.

00:06:48.220 if if they're uh uh carmelo anthony is black i'm black i have to support him

00:06:55.940 regardless of what i'm seeing as far as evidence goes witness testimony anything

00:07:01.540 and um that's just crazy to me especially when a case has this much exposure and we're getting

00:07:11.120 the information i'm a little pissed that we're not getting cameras in the courtroom i think

00:07:17.900 That's really important, especially when you have a case like this that's so incendiary and people are taking sides and threatening that if this happens or if that happens, there's going to be problems.

00:07:36.460 I really think the best way to at least try to remedy that by getting facts out there is to let people see exactly what's happening in the courtroom.

00:07:51.580 Because another thing I'm seeing on social media are, you know, journalists that have taken to putting their opinion out there.

00:08:01.520 They're editorializing, they're lying, they're using rumor, innuendo, complete fallacy,

00:08:10.420 and reporting that as what's going on in the trial.

00:08:14.460 And this has got people so wound up.

00:08:17.480 And then when a decision comes down and it's not to their liking,

00:08:21.360 they just think about all the false testimony that never happened,

00:08:27.680 the evidence that was never put in.

00:08:29.780 they see that and go oh this is just another case of a systemically racist system because you've

00:08:36.560 got nothing but lies the result of the trial was based on evidence facts truth and you feel like

00:08:46.660 you've been slighted so that's a big thing i don't know why they decided not to put cameras in there

00:08:53.380 I don't know if it's a state or a local law, but as far as I know, the Constitution does say that you are allowed access to these trials.

00:09:09.040 And obviously, they can't fit everybody in the courtroom.

00:09:12.820 So in that case, you could put it, you could broadcast it.

00:09:16.700 And especially, it's 2026.

00:09:18.780 it's not like a network channel has to devote hours and hours a day

00:09:25.460 for weeks on end to one thing.

00:09:28.520 It doesn't have to happen that way.

00:09:30.600 I know with the OJ trial, it was Court TV.

00:09:33.280 That kind of made Court TV, put them on the map.

00:09:36.980 And they were willing to do beginning-to-end coverage.

00:09:41.380 Every minute of the trial was covered.

00:09:44.200 A lot of channels now, I don't think they would do that.

00:09:47.800 but the the internet is wide open you have so many platforms like youtube uh rumble that are

00:09:56.520 ready willing and able to broadcast uh every minute of trials like this and that way you

00:10:03.920 don't have to listen to people twist and distort what was said in court uh to try to

00:10:12.000 get an agenda across because i've seen a hell of a lot of that going on um with this trial

00:10:21.100 uh it's it's like i said it's very uh incendiary this is this looks like one of those trials that

00:10:29.380 could have people very up in arms and and we could see some george floyd mike brown kind of reaction

00:10:37.200 when it comes to vandalism and assaults and looting and whatnot.

00:10:44.800 If you've looked at the evidence and did not take the word of any biased reporters,

00:10:54.800 so far, the defense really has its work cut out for it.

00:11:02.460 This is a case, you know, I think most people know.

00:11:07.200 Carmelo Anthony, 19, now, is on trial for first-degree murder

00:11:12.120 and the stabbing death of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf.

00:11:15.960 This happened April 2nd of 2025.

00:11:20.720 And it happened at Frisco Regional Track Meet in Frisco Stadium in Frisco, Texas,

00:11:28.540 during a weather delay.

00:11:31.860 You know the story, I guess.

00:11:33.900 Carmelo Anthony wanted to sit down in the tent that was dedicated to the high school that Austin Metcalf and his buddies and his brother went to.

00:11:45.540 He was asked what he was doing there.

00:11:48.500 He was then asked to leave.

00:11:50.680 He did not leave.

00:11:53.620 Austin Metcalf walked up to him and asked him to leave.

00:12:00.020 Carmelo Anthony said, touch me and see what happens.

00:12:03.900 while he reached into his open backpack.

00:12:09.140 Metcalf then, what I heard, was pushed or shoved,

00:12:13.760 described by some as a gentle push on the shoulder by Austin Metcalf's hand,

00:12:22.920 didn't push him off the seat, didn't throw his balance off or anything like that.

00:12:28.180 And the second he touched him, Carmelo Anthony pulled out a five-inch knife 0.94

00:12:33.920 and stabbed him once in the chest, pierced his heart, killing him in very short time. 0.66

00:12:40.680 He then said, I did it because he put his hands on me. 0.92

00:12:45.560 And that's about that as far as what happened.

00:12:50.940 What we are seeing happening now on social media are people that really,

00:12:56.400 really do not either understand self-defense

00:13:01.780 or are not willing to accept it,

00:13:05.620 even if they see what the criteria is for self-defense

00:13:10.680 in the state of Texas, in this county that they're in.

00:13:15.140 I don't think the county laws are any different than the state laws

00:13:19.580 as far as self-defense goes,

00:13:21.160 so we don't have to worry about making a distinction

00:13:23.960 between those two things.

00:13:26.120 But we are going to take a quick break, and then we're going to come back and delve into the trial,

00:13:33.500 what the witnesses have said so far.

00:13:36.640 The prosecution has rested its case already, 21 witnesses, and the defense started their case.

00:13:43.360 They resumed tomorrow.

00:13:45.340 And, yeah, we'll get into this and your calls, 800-848-9222.

00:13:50.420 I'm sure a lot of people want to comment on this, 800-848-9222.

00:13:55.120 Back in a moment.

00:13:57.440 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

00:14:03.580 It's the Anthony Cumia Show.

00:14:05.620 We are discussing the Carmelo Anthony murder trial going on down there in Frisco, Texas.

00:14:15.060 And it is heated, man.

00:14:18.000 It is heated.

00:14:18.880 The social media platforms are just full of people that are very divided on this.

00:14:26.960 A lot of people know the story.

00:14:28.860 I just, before the break, did a quick summary of what had happened.

00:14:35.080 And from the looks of a lot of people on social media and some of the people even on television, on news programs,

00:14:41.060 They don't seem to understand there is a big difference between being insulted

00:14:48.500 and murdering someone and using a weapon to defend your life

00:14:55.720 because at that moment you feel your life was being threatened.

00:15:02.540 It was in imminent danger of being taken.

00:15:07.600 That is what self-defense is.

00:15:11.060 It isn't about someone telling you to get up.

00:15:15.480 It isn't about someone putting their hand on your shoulder. 0.70

00:15:19.360 It isn't even about someone, if they would have dropped the N-bomb and punched him in the face, it doesn't even cover that.

00:15:31.200 You have to feel that your life is in imminent danger of being taken. 0.99

00:15:36.920 You are ready to be killed.

00:15:39.260 then self-defense is a case and i've seen a lot of people that don't seem to understand that 0.98

00:15:45.880 they're trying to make um they're they're trying to uh compare it to uh cases like george zimmerman

00:15:55.320 and trayvon martin well trayvon was unarmed and uh george zimmerman was an armed man

00:16:04.360 and he shot Trayvon Martin in self-defense.

00:16:08.300 He actually won that case and was acquitted of murder.

00:16:13.280 I see that case coming up now,

00:16:16.260 and a lot of people that want to compare it to this case.

00:16:18.760 They are not comparable.

00:16:22.300 There was some type of verbal altercation

00:16:26.740 between Trayvon and George Zimmerman.

00:16:31.400 Trayvon escalated it to a physical altercation.

00:16:36.100 He was punching George Zimmerman in the face and beating his head against a cement sidewalk.

00:16:42.880 George Zimmerman had pictures of wounds on his head.

00:16:46.020 His nose was broken.

00:16:48.620 George Zimmerman had said that he felt he was ready to go unconscious.

00:16:56.460 Unconscious.

00:16:58.420 He had a gun.

00:17:00.460 he thought, that gun can be used against me. 1.00

00:17:03.360 This guy wants to kill me. 0.99

00:17:05.760 He's beating my head against cement. 0.99

00:17:07.580 That was what that case was.

00:17:09.960 And the jury decided, yeah,

00:17:12.640 George Zimmerman had enough reasonable,

00:17:17.460 he could reasonably assume

00:17:19.200 that if this were to continue,

00:17:21.220 he wouldn't live through it.

00:17:23.860 If you can reasonably assume,

00:17:25.880 convince a jury,

00:17:27.800 all the testimony, the witnesses,

00:17:29.540 the evidence and that jury goes oh yeah if i was in that position i would absolutely feel like my

00:17:37.920 life was being threatened and i would have to do something even to the point of using deadly

00:17:43.440 physical force and the jury agreed in the george zimmerman case would you agree based on the

00:17:51.840 evidence we've seen so far and i know we still have the defense's case coming up but again if

00:17:57.780 they can't come up with something extraordinary this doesn't look like much more than uh carmelo

00:18:04.980 anthony was insulted he did not want to leave the tent when people told him to leave he was

00:18:12.540 felt he was disrespected and when the slightest uh touch was put on him a hand on his shoulder

00:18:23.340 as many witnesses testified he decided to kill the person that was touching him now do you think

00:18:31.680 that defense is going to be able to convince the jury that if they were in that position

00:18:38.640 they would have done the same thing every jury member sitting there would go yeah that sounds 0.77

00:18:45.900 like a situation where i would have to kill somebody i would have to take a life because

00:18:51.000 my life was in imminent danger of being taken i don't think so i don't think any reasonable person

00:18:58.780 would feel that that situation merits killing another person so you know like i said that

00:19:08.240 defense has their work cut out for them really does uh another little uh point of contention

00:19:16.420 is the jury when the jury was chosen last week uh they there was not one black person on the jury

00:19:26.140 and look you you have the right the prosecution and the defense has the right to exempt certain

00:19:35.180 people from the jury they have a certain number of challenges that they can make against certain

00:19:45.260 jurors so if someone comes up and you ask a question have you ever been the victim of

00:19:51.060 this type of crime and it's a crime that's similar to what had happened the case that

00:19:56.280 you're working on i don't think the defense attorney would like to have somebody on the

00:20:02.620 jury that has been through the same thing they might have some bias in their head and go yeah

00:20:10.500 I definitely would vote guilty because I've been through that and screw this guy. 0.87

00:20:16.960 So it seems that a couple of the jurors of color, black and brown people that got up, 0.83

00:20:24.820 had said certain things to the effect of he looks too young.

00:20:28.800 One guy actually said, I couldn't imagine putting a brother behind bars.

00:20:33.580 This is why people were refused from the jury.

00:20:40.500 by the prosecution i'm sure the defense probably wanted as many people of color on the jury as

00:20:48.380 possible but i guess they ran out if the prosecution would have run out of challenges

00:20:54.240 before they ran out of black potential jurors i think they would have seen a black juror on there

00:20:59.660 but uh it didn't happen so how important is this well i tend to believe from what i've seen this

00:21:09.240 is my own opinion that uh black jurors feel more compelled to vote based on race in some way shape

00:21:22.420 or form in the case that they uh might take that into consideration in lieu of evidence testimony

00:21:32.360 it's just what i've seen the oj trial you know if you don't agree with me that's fine call up

00:21:38.020 give me some instances where that did not happen that's fine and dandy i will listen

00:21:44.600 to anything i have to say but from what i've seen over the course of the years

00:21:49.280 and the oj trial we saw witnesses or uh jurors come forward and say oh yeah we voted not guilty

00:21:57.540 because of what had happened with the police and rodney king and the riots that's a racially

00:22:05.440 motivated vote that the jury at least a few members of the jury gave and there is actually

00:22:14.280 a statistic about white jurors on a case that as opposed to black jurors on a case when the

00:22:23.560 defendant is black or white and white jurors have a much more consistent rate of acquittals

00:22:31.140 and convictions over whether the defendant is black or white than black jurors do their uh

00:22:40.580 decisions show that they acquit black people at a higher rate than white people would over

00:22:47.960 um over a number of of cases so hey it happens it happens it's part of the world we live in

00:22:59.140 So that's a point of contention, that there aren't any black jurors on this trial.

00:23:05.860 And I'm sure if he's convicted, they're going to use that as a topic, a reason for an appeal.

00:23:15.460 That they didn't have a fair jury because there were no people of color on the jury. 0.99

00:23:20.680 So, I mean, it could work in his favor. 0.98

00:23:24.260 They will get an appeal. It'll happen.

00:23:26.400 All right, your calls, a lot more.

00:23:29.220 You've got to take another quick break, but this is heating up.

00:23:32.520 We'll talk about this and other stories just starting here right after these words.

00:23:39.760 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

00:23:45.120 The Anthony Cumia Show.

00:23:47.120 Welcome back.

00:23:48.080 Talking about the Carmelo Anthony murder trial going on right now.

00:23:52.340 They'll resume tomorrow.

00:23:53.540 the defense will continue with their case the prosecution has rested this trial just zipping

00:24:01.780 by really quick i was amazed that the prosecution rested so quickly but they put up 21 witnesses

00:24:09.480 and i think they got their point across the witnesses were very consistent in what was said

00:24:15.980 And what the witnesses said really wasn't had not even an inkling that self-defense is is something that the defense could pull off here in this case.

00:24:31.640 It's just nothing that these defense prosecution witnesses said would let you believe that self-defense was the reason he stabbed Austin Metcalf.

00:24:45.320 Breaking news.

00:24:46.480 This just in.

00:25:28.640 Nothing new coming out about that, but I'll keep you posted.

00:25:33.480 I scroll on social media and catch the most recent news.

00:25:39.940 Crazy.

00:25:41.600 I mean, the stabbings that are going on.

00:25:44.780 What are we, London?

00:25:46.620 What is New York City now, London, England?

00:25:49.880 Machetes?

00:25:50.580 What do we have? 0.94

00:25:53.500 Traditional religious knives and daggers?

00:25:57.240 Is that what we're going to have to deal with these days?

00:26:01.220 My God.

00:26:03.420 I was going to take a call, but we got that little pop-up back in the studio.

00:26:07.000 If you could click that off, I will quickly take a call.

00:26:12.760 Let's see.

00:26:14.000 A lot of people want to talk about the Carmelo thing.

00:26:17.100 So, oh, there we go.

00:26:18.320 Okay, let's go to Boink, Matt, Morristown, New Jersey.

00:26:24.580 What's up, Matt?

00:26:25.840 Hey, Anthony, how are you doing?

00:26:27.580 Good.

00:26:29.420 Thanks for taking my call.

00:26:31.000 No problem.

00:26:31.560 You keep saying the word tent, and everybody keeps thinking it's a tent,

00:26:35.300 But when you play track in high school, the tent is the de facto locker room for kids to take off their sneakers, put their sneakers, phone, wallet, everything.

00:26:50.060 So the fact that Carmelo came over there to basically inject himself into another team's locker room is no different than if you went to Madison Square Garden tomorrow night and you tried to get into the Knicks locker room, right?

00:27:04.340 it's crazy yeah these the that's what i've been reading too these tents are kind of you know it's

00:27:11.880 your area for your team your guys this is something you know sports very competitive

00:27:17.560 and uh you like being with your teammates and with your supporters uh and walking into just

00:27:26.600 another tent isn't just like they were set up so that if you're walking around and it's raining

00:27:31.340 you could get shelter underneath it these are like you said they they leave their uh backpacks

00:27:37.360 there they leave any valuables they have they know that their buddies are in there and nothing's

00:27:41.460 going to happen to it so this isn't just like oh can i get under this umbrella while it's raining

00:27:46.720 and uh he just decided to walk up yeah that is an issue uh that they're trying to make more

00:27:53.280 important you totally nailed that you totally nailed that and i'm sorry i'm a little nervous

00:27:57.620 But I also was a volunteer high school track and field coach, which is why Austin Metcalf was there.

00:28:08.440 Like, if you read the testimony, the track and field coach wanted him to be here, be there because he was a pillar of the community.

00:28:16.520 right it was for he was kind of the leader leadership uh qualities and the coach wanted

00:28:22.000 him to uh take the reins and you know make sure um everything went the way it's supposed to yep

00:28:28.360 and speaking of pillars of the community it's a shame that gavin mcginnis can't drink in 2026

00:28:34.760 let's go free gavin free gavin i gotcha

00:28:39.040 uh yeah you know a lot is being made of the tent and did carmelo have permission to go into the

00:28:51.700 tent did uh austin metcalf have authority to tell him to leave the tent these are questions that are

00:29:00.060 coming up but they don't really they're peripheral questions they seem like a distraction to the

00:29:08.400 actual self-defense case this isn't a trespass case it's in a case like oh uh carmelo anthony

00:29:19.960 walked into our tent so we want him arrested for trespassing on our property uh there are some

00:29:26.940 relevant uh there is some relevance to him walking into that tent and whether he was allowed to or

00:29:35.380 not and whether um austin and company were authorized to tell him he couldn't be in there

00:29:41.460 it does but the bottom line here this is the bottom line in a self-defense case you need to

00:29:50.200 prove that at that moment a reasonable person could assume that their life was in imminent

00:29:59.960 danger before they can then return with deadly physical force a knife to the chest like carmelo

00:30:10.500 anthony uh did to um austin metcalf uh how he got there where he was sitting who said what to him

00:30:21.760 did austin put his hands on did he push him did he touch him did he shove him did he okay

00:30:28.260 would a reasonable person believe that was life-threatening i see nothing to indicate that

00:30:38.820 in what has been uh put forth so far in that case nothing so let him argue about the tent and this

00:30:48.160 and that it's a distraction it's to confuse jurors is another thing when you don't have a case you

00:30:54.440 need to muck up the works and get that jury to uh consider something else than the important

00:31:04.320 element of this case self-defense get him to consider oh they shouldn't have told

00:31:10.500 Carmelo to leave the tent if you get a jury that's arguing over oh god they shouldn't know

00:31:18.320 see Austin was wrong there because he had no authority to tell him that's what the defense

00:31:24.200 wants they want that jury yapping uh about that and i just hope there's some sensible people on

00:31:32.880 the jury that'll turn around and go hey hey hey concentrate here's the issue

00:31:38.800 would you have felt your life was being threatened in danger of being taken away

00:31:45.960 to the point where you would have responded with deadly physical force based on

00:31:50.560 what they said happened to carmelo under that tent would you have killed someone

00:31:56.220 answer no no no no okay now you know how to vote guilty guilty guilty that's it but you know

00:32:05.720 these are tricks tricks that the defense does sometimes it's the prosecution that has to do

00:32:12.960 the tricks because they don't have a a strong enough case but um you just can't get distracted

00:32:19.420 And the jury is the only people we really care about that understands this.

00:32:26.040 Because if you look on social media, you are not convincing a lot of people out there as to what the facts of the case are,

00:32:34.960 as to what it means to say that you were defending yourself.

00:32:42.300 Texas laws, you know, every state, their self-defense laws are a little different.

00:32:48.000 and uh that really is important some states and we'll talk about this a little bit too the

00:32:58.440 stand your ground defense because i'm seeing this pop up a lot well texas is a stand your ground

00:33:08.120 state and carmelo had every right to stand his ground when he was told to leave the tent

00:33:16.820 well if you if you are thinking that you are saying that on social media and you believe it

00:33:24.540 you have no idea what stand your ground means and and how it's applicable to a self-defense case

00:33:34.440 it it doesn't mean that if you're somewhere you're not supposed to be

00:33:39.780 and people tell you to leave that you can stand your ground and not leave go ahead try that

00:33:46.160 go go go to texas walk into someone's house and when they go what are you doing here get the f

00:33:54.940 out of my house go nope i'm standing my ground uh you best hope that person has a great sense 0.99

00:34:04.640 of humor before he reaches for uh his pistol because it is so ridiculous to think that stand

00:34:13.580 your ground in this case means that carmelo anthony was allowed legally by the stand your

00:34:19.940 ground statutes that he could stay in the tent it had nothing to do with that stand your ground is

00:34:27.420 a great law it means that when someone approaches you and is threatening you with great bodily harm

00:34:38.540 or death you do not have a legal obligation to try to get out of that situation a lot of states

00:34:48.200 have that someone could have a knife and they're they're standing at your door and you have a gun

00:34:57.980 and they're not moving they're just standing there

00:35:02.480 a lot of states you could shoot that person right then and there and it would be self-defense in a

00:35:10.800 perfect world depending on your jury depending on who and what and what color a religion or this

00:35:17.820 the perpetrator was but in a let's let's say in a perfect world

00:35:21.640 in in a stand your ground state you get to stand your ground it's you being threatened by someone

00:35:33.220 with great bodily harm or death you do not have to look and go is there an open door behind me

00:35:40.740 can i jump out a window can i do anything else but use deadly physical force against this guy

00:35:48.500 the states that don't have stand your ground

00:35:51.200 they want you to wait

00:35:52.500 until the knife wielding maniac 0.65

00:35:54.900 is right there on top of you with the knife

00:35:57.380 but a stand your ground state

00:36:01.040 that's what that means

00:36:02.020 you are not legally obligated

00:36:03.840 to retreat

00:36:04.860 from a threat of great bodily harm

00:36:08.200 or death

00:36:08.940 was that what

00:36:11.240 how did that fit in

00:36:12.640 how does that make

00:36:14.000 Carmelo Anthony

00:36:15.760 the guy that is exercising

00:36:17.960 stand your ground he's in their tent they are politely 15 times from the testimony telling him

00:36:28.940 to leave when he doesn't leave austin metcalf decides to put his hand on his shoulder and give

00:36:38.780 him the old hey get out of here hey come on you know you put your hand on his shoulder go come on

00:36:42.720 Come on, get up. You'll leave it. Wasn't a punch. Wasn't a shove.

00:36:48.060 It was like, hey, I'm serious here. You've got to get up and go.

00:36:53.640 And he stabbed him in the chest.

00:36:57.420 And I read people trying to say this was stand your ground.

00:37:04.440 You have no, no knowledge as to what stand your ground means in a self-defense case. 0.98

00:37:11.340 If you think that's what it means, that he had every right to be in that tent and stood his ground dummies, just dummy. 0.97

00:37:19.700 And I see so much of it. Larry, Brooklyn, how you doing, laugh? 0.87

00:37:26.040 OK, Anthony, listen, you know, I don't know what the prosecutor said in this case, but just as a side, I happen to be a lawyer.

00:37:34.540 So I'm not coming from a layman's perspective, but if he but he could very easily counter all of the arguments of whether he should have all the irrelevant arguments by simply saying there is evidence of premeditation.

00:37:47.920 Right.

00:37:48.440 Because this fellow tempted him with the knife, knowing the knife was in his backpack, knowing he was going to reach for it.

00:37:55.180 He set up the whole encounter.

00:37:57.280 So there's evidence of premeditation, which makes everything else.

00:38:01.840 basically. He had a mindset

00:38:03.400 to kill the guy. Now, I also 0.95

00:38:05.680 want to point out, isn't it

00:38:07.660 interesting how the threats that are emanating

00:38:09.740 from the black community parallel

00:38:11.700 the same threat of the defendant? 1.00

00:38:14.100 If you touch me, look

00:38:15.620 what's going to happen.

00:38:17.640 If he's acquitted, look what's going to happen.

00:38:20.180 Yeah. Yeah.

00:38:21.580 There's a little hypocrisy going

00:38:23.880 on that I'm

00:38:25.960 noticing. Yes, Larry.

00:38:28.200 You know what else, Larry?

00:38:29.880 um the especially with the knife um and first of all let me say this i don't know how familiar

00:38:37.080 you are with texas law but there is no premeditation prerequisite to first degree

00:38:42.420 murder in texas it's just murder they don't you don't have to prove premeditation for first degree

00:38:50.920 first degree is all they have in texas it's crazy i i looked at i looked at this and i was like what

00:38:57.520 they have manslaughter but um you don't have to prove premeditation to get a first degree murder

00:39:04.280 charge because when i first read it i thought they overcharged them uh but you bring up a great

00:39:09.860 point with that also the fact that this was a folding knife and it was opened he didn't get

00:39:15.840 touched and then open his knife and stab him it was opened he had his hand on that handle of the

00:39:23.040 knife in his bag that right there is premeditation 0.94

00:39:27.580 yeah he's done esquire yeah this doesn't look good for the defense uh and you know there's a

00:39:37.020 lot of these uh armchair lawyers out there that uh they're just saying what they hear and it's not

00:39:44.380 at all in in the real world uh some of these things i'm hearing larry thanks man

00:39:50.840 just crazy i i see it all over just just threads and threads of uh of people that don't know what

00:40:00.840 they're talking about now i'm not a lawyer i play one on this show i uh but here's here's what you

00:40:07.960 do if you're not a lawyer because now it's social media you have to be a lawyer remember when we had

00:40:14.820 to be uh doctors with the vaccine and stuff everyone was a doctor and then you have to be

00:40:21.740 a forensic expert uh and then you have to be an astronaut everyone professes to be an expert in

00:40:29.540 everything when they comment on uh social media but here's what you do you don't have to be a

00:40:36.320 lawyer you don't have to be a doctor or a scientist um and if you're not people can't tell you well

00:40:43.960 you have no right to talk about this i understand people are very impassioned about this they want

00:40:48.340 to talk about it hey but i'm not a lawyer so i can't talk about it no that's not what anyone's

00:40:52.960 saying but you better damn well educate yourself be knowledgeable about what you're talking about

00:41:02.280 the information is out there you can punch up things on your phone to find out if this is true

00:41:10.000 if that's true what does self-defense mean what does it mean in texas and you can use that

00:41:17.320 and your powers of deductive reasoning and and pretty much rationalize what's going on

00:41:26.700 and get into the conversation as an informed person i know crazy anthony what are you saying

00:41:35.540 what what fun would social media be if people were informed as to what they were talking about

00:41:44.660 and when big events like this happen where we see a lot of people getting involved they're very 0.99

00:41:51.480 impassioned it's a volatile incendiary topic you will see more idiots per capita than any other 0.99

00:42:01.400 time they want to get involved they want to talk they want to say my team is the right team 1.00

00:42:08.720 we win and in doing so they didn't take a minute to do any real research so they can 1.00

00:42:18.460 talk about the topic without sounding like idiots and imbeciles but that's what we're in and that's 0.99

00:42:27.420 why there would be a problem and uh you know people will feel disappointed they'll feel like 1.00

00:42:32.760 they were slighted they'll feel like the system is against them if they were getting all the

00:42:38.340 disinformation and not paying attention to any of the actual facts of the case and then if he's

00:42:44.140 found guilty they go like oh well what did i what happened what happened i i read what happened on

00:42:52.620 social media and he should have been acquitted well you didn't read anything about um about the

00:42:58.920 actual case okay lots more your calls uh when we return stick around when you travel well your klm

00:43:34.600 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

00:43:40.220 The Anthony Cumia Show and a little more on that story.

00:43:44.660 The five people stabbed at Penn Station in New York City.

00:43:47.180 There's five people stabbed in a mass attack inside Penn Station in New York City Sunday evening.

00:43:53.660 An unidentified, emotionally disturbed suspect is in custody, according to the Post.

00:44:02.200 Five people rushed to Bellevue Hospital, including one person with serious injuries,

00:44:05.800 two people with moderate injuries, and two others with minor injuries.

00:44:09.240 The whole smorgasbord there of injuries.

00:44:12.040 An unidentified suspect is in custody.

00:44:14.700 the individual is believed to be emotionally disturbed according to the sources and here's

00:44:22.020 what we will learn um in the coming hours or days about this guy he was known to the police

00:44:31.980 he has a lengthy criminal record he was released by a judge because he was emotionally disturbed

00:44:40.500 disturbed this is what we're gonna see because they refuse to do anything about that if you're

00:44:47.820 labeled emotionally disturbed it doesn't matter doesn't matter if you're a murderer

00:44:53.920 or someone that just goes on the sidewalk 24 hours a day they look at everyone like that in

00:45:01.320 the same respect and they throw them back out on the street for you to deal with for everyone in

00:45:07.720 new york has to has to deal with that person now i guarantee you right now mark my words

00:45:15.800 this guy was known to the police a hell of a lot of arrests and he was released

00:45:23.460 uh with some from some other assault or uh whatever he was up to

00:45:30.520 because always emotionally disturbed mental institutions they make jobs for doctors

00:45:40.940 construction workers people that carve those gargoyles that go on the corner of the mental

00:45:46.780 hospitals because they make the bars for the windows i mean why why is it now part and parcel

00:45:56.700 It is just, hey, you got to deal with it when you live in a major city in the United States, especially a Democrat-run blue city, which are most of all the big cities.

00:46:09.360 Why is that looked at as something that we just have to deal with?

00:46:13.940 Well, you're in a big city. 1.00

00:46:15.820 Nuts are going to run around one of the main transportation hubs and stab people. 1.00

00:46:21.300 What are you, crazy complaining about it? 1.00

00:46:24.500 You're in New York. 1.00

00:46:25.440 what do you expect of course that's how lulled into stupidity everyone has gotten 1.00

00:46:34.200 where it is accepted that mental patients can run around stabbing people and we just go 1.00

00:46:42.880 ah okay silla silla what are we supposed to do oh well

00:46:48.980 it is out of control out of control sondra jersey what is up dear

00:47:00.480 you're right it is out of control and what pisses me off donald trump offered to help

00:47:08.160 hokul i'm sorry by by bringing the national guard there to help her like he did in washington

00:47:15.860 Everything is good in Washington now because he had the National Guard there, and he offered it here, and she denigrated him.

00:47:24.140 So, you see, I don't know when people are going to find it.

00:47:27.260 Because it's personal, Sandra.

00:47:28.680 It's personal.

00:47:29.740 They don't want Trump's help, not because of the help.

00:47:33.340 That's part of it, though, because they don't want their city or their state to look so bad that the military is necessary because you're not doing your job.

00:47:42.900 That's part of it.

00:47:43.600 The other part is they don't want Donald Trump to look good.

00:47:48.440 They will cut their nose.

00:47:49.880 No, not their own nose.

00:47:51.340 They'll let some nut cut your nose off in spite to just try to make Trump seem like the bad guy in this.

00:48:01.160 Oh, he wants to send his military and his Gestapo.

00:48:04.880 Yeah.

00:48:05.340 How about if we're not getting stabbed in Penn Station?

00:48:08.620 How about if that's the end result?

00:48:12.000 You're so right.

00:48:12.860 You know, I would like to see all these politicians come into the city every day and take a whiff of what we have to deal with every day.

00:48:20.860 Look at all the hot smokers, all the drugs on the ground. 1.00

00:48:26.520 Dirty hippies, Sandra, dirty hippies. 1.00

00:48:29.540 No, I know what you mean. 1.00

00:48:30.940 And by the way, they do, politicians do come in.

00:48:33.380 And that's when they clean up the little area that they're going to be in.

00:48:36.680 They roust all the drug addicts away, and then they walk them through with an armed security detail like a president. 0.98

00:48:45.780 And then once they're gone, it goes right back to being the crap hole that it was the day before. 0.99

00:48:52.160 That's how they work. 1.00

00:48:55.420 Hypocrite, Sandra. 1.00

00:48:56.880 The people have to get fed up and stop voting the way they're voting. 1.00

00:49:02.340 Fed up? Stop voting the way they're voting? Sandra, you are so adorable.

00:49:05.720 how naive you've you've you've been around for a little while and you're still so naive

00:49:10.680 there's no voting our way out of this the the look at who they voted for look who new york city voted

00:49:16.300 for uh zoram and danny look who new york state voted for they had a chance to get lee zeldin

00:49:21.820 who would have done something as governor in new york state and they got kathy hochel in there 0.54

00:49:26.460 there's there's too many idiots that aren't going to vote our way out of this sandra thanks so much 0.99

00:49:33.000 I love taking your call. 1.00

00:49:36.580 It's infuriating, though.

00:49:39.280 It really is infuriating.

00:49:41.660 But this will continue happening.

00:49:44.200 And I hear more and more people saying it's part and parcel with living in a big city.

00:49:50.220 No, it's not.

00:49:52.100 It shouldn't be. 0.99

00:49:53.440 You hear anyone, especially any leader, politician, with that line of crap, they've just given up. 0.98

00:50:02.420 They've just given up, and you can't allow it. 0.99

00:50:06.140 You can't allow it.

00:50:07.220 I wish there was a very obvious option to it.

00:50:10.820 Okay, hey, where are you going?

00:50:12.180 Stick around.

00:50:12.720 We'll be right back.

00:50:13.620 The Anthony Cumia Show, and boy, I hope people feel safe.

00:50:18.400 I hope they feel safe in New York.

00:50:21.500 You know, the Knicks, they lead 2-0, 2-2 Zippo over the Spurs,

00:50:28.720 and they're playing in Madison Square Garden.

00:50:33.160 For those of you around the country that don't know,

00:50:35.440 Madison Square Garden is Penn Station.

00:50:37.980 That's where it is.

00:50:39.480 Everyone that goes to Madison Square Garden,

00:50:41.840 most of them come through Penn Station.

00:50:44.400 Five people stabbed in Penn Station this evening

00:50:47.280 by some emotionally disturbed guy.

00:50:51.820 And like I said before the break, I'm certain they will say,

00:50:55.280 oh, he was known to the police.

00:50:56.580 Oh, he was arrested a thousand times.

00:50:58.160 here's his rap sheet here's the judge that let him out uh happens all the time so be safe be

00:51:05.600 safe out there uh but hey i'd be remiss in my duties if i didn't tell you about fan duel

00:51:12.100 predicts that's right with the game coming up at madison square garden can you bet uh if you'll

00:51:20.420 get stabbed going in i wonder i hope not and i certainly hope that doesn't happen to anybody

00:51:27.260 But, yeah, a lot of people are really, really excited

00:51:32.740 that the Knicks could pull this off.

00:51:35.980 Another couple of wins, and it's theirs.

00:51:37.820 So, Game 3, Monday, tomorrow.

00:51:42.340 And what are you going to do?

00:51:43.780 Watch it and be disinterested?

00:51:46.300 Or are you going to maybe put a little wager with FanDuel Predicts?

00:51:51.180 And you don't even have to bet on the game.

00:51:53.540 Bet on different players.

00:51:54.580 How many points are they going to score?

00:51:57.600 Some of those prop bets that are so popular.

00:52:01.700 Because that's what Fandle predicts is.

00:52:05.520 It's a prediction market.

00:52:07.800 Bet on anything.

00:52:09.820 How about this?

00:52:11.000 Did you get your bet in on Fandle predicts about the L.A. mayor race? 0.94

00:52:17.060 Because if you bet that Rahman, that candidate Rahman, was going to beat Pratt to take over second place for the runoff between Bass in November, well, that would have been a good one.

00:52:33.640 Because it certainly wasn't expected.

00:52:36.780 I don't know what kind of hijinks and shenanigans went on, but you could bet on those kind of things.

00:52:41.280 It's not just sports.

00:52:43.680 Is that still going on in Iran?

00:52:45.880 Is there still some kind of a battle war going on there?

00:52:49.640 Bet on that.

00:52:50.860 Will there be peace treaty?

00:52:53.220 Will the ceasefire blow up?

00:52:57.220 And what about if you're looking at some of these bets and you go,

00:53:00.260 look, I don't even know about this.

00:53:02.480 Will other people have already bet?

00:53:04.260 So you get kind of a line on what might be a little more advantageous for you to bet on.

00:53:12.420 That's how it works.

00:53:14.040 FanDuel predicts whether it's, you know, basically betting on a team.

00:53:17.600 Hey, I think the Knicks will win tomorrow.

00:53:19.800 You could bet on that.

00:53:20.820 Or you could get more in-depth.

00:53:22.420 You could bet on things that have nothing to do with sports.

00:53:25.420 FanDuel predicts.

00:53:27.480 That is it, my friends.

00:54:05.060 And we're going to London, England, the U.K.

00:54:09.520 Nick, what's up, Nick?

00:54:13.040 Anthony.

00:54:14.300 How you doing?

00:54:15.380 Very good evening to you.

00:54:18.420 And first and foremost, may I say, I appreciate you announce or pronounce and announce the English language beautifully.

00:54:30.080 Well, thank you, sir.

00:54:31.120 Thank you, Pastor.

00:54:32.340 No, no, no, no.

00:54:33.040 And I'm not blowing smoke up your bottom, as I say.

00:54:36.820 And we have spoken before.

00:54:39.860 In a previous life, for both of us,

00:54:43.600 when I used to listen to satellite radio,

00:54:47.320 when I was talking about the good US and A,

00:54:51.280 and, of course, you was broadcasting on satellite radio.

00:54:54.640 The old Opie and Anthony radio show on Sirius XM.

00:54:58.540 I recall.

00:54:59.440 And when I exit this conversation, you do know what I'm going to say.

00:55:06.440 But, yeah.

00:55:07.480 And yesterday, of course, was, of course, the D-Day landings, 6th of the 6th.

00:55:15.280 Yeah.

00:55:16.320 Yesterday, of course, were the anniversary of the D-Day landings in Normandy and the invasion, the European invasion.

00:55:26.440 And my God, you got, and I will say, you guys, I mean, you were going up fifths or steep embankments.

00:55:36.340 My God, those beaches that you had to take the bridge.

00:55:41.300 Oh, the hard one. 1.00

00:55:42.180 The Canadians, where are the Canadians out on Sword Beach? 0.93

00:55:44.860 They put blankets out.

00:55:46.040 They were getting suntans.

00:55:47.580 They were getting suntans.

00:55:49.900 Yeah, yeah, exactly.

00:55:51.240 I tease, of course, they were all heroes.

00:55:53.080 Thank you.

00:55:54.300 Nick.

00:55:54.740 Absolutely.

00:55:55.180 Nick, there's a situation going on over there with Hendry Nowak, the Hendry Nowak case. 1.00

00:56:06.120 This kid was stabbed by illegal, I don't know if they were illegal, but they were immigrants, just savage, a savage stabbing. 0.98

00:56:17.820 and they had said to the police when the police arrived that henry had called them names had 1.00

00:56:25.380 had made some racial insults to them so what did they do they took this kid who was bleeding to

00:56:32.640 death handcuffed him wouldn't listen to him when he said he couldn't breathe and he really couldn't

00:56:38.560 he was bleeding to death and arrested him for insulting these banner citizens from the uk

00:56:47.080 Okay, what's the mood?

00:56:49.940 What's the thought going on over there as far as this case goes, Nick?

00:56:55.620 Anthony, let me just say this.

00:56:59.420 Let's just think back.

00:57:01.560 The last words this kid heard was, you're under arrest.

00:57:07.000 Oh, my God.

00:57:07.760 As he's bleeding out.

00:57:10.740 He's bleeding out.

00:57:12.200 Unreal.

00:57:13.460 Unreal.

00:57:13.860 And they go, I'm a bit stabbed.

00:57:17.400 And the kids go, I'm a bit stabbed.

00:57:19.680 And the police officers, I don't think so.

00:57:23.260 And fortunately, we now have the body cam evidence from the police officers that were involved in that arrest.

00:57:33.160 And it's been made public.

00:57:34.640 Do you think these police officers, Nick, do you think these police officers are going to face any retribution for what they did?

00:57:43.040 probably not and also recently it's now been

00:57:51.160 uh um i can say publicized that the playbook that the police go by is that um depending on

00:58:03.840 the nationality of course they always will give the benefit of the doubt to the immigrant that

00:58:12.740 comes there from pakistan or india or north africa or sub-saharan africa anyone but a a white

00:58:22.680 english person they do not get the benefit of the doubt even even if they're laying on the sidewalk

00:58:30.360 bleeding to death they'll be the one that gets handcuffed because of an insult a supposed i

00:58:38.000 I don't know. I don't even know if that's true.

00:58:39.620 And when they cuffed him, that photo, that video, the guy's hand is ghostly white.

00:58:47.500 How do they not know?

00:58:48.840 Aren't they supposed to have some type of knowledge about people's health

00:58:53.920 and whether they look like someone that is in medical distress?

00:59:00.420 And they were so fixated on this horrible guy might have said something to these immigrants

00:59:07.520 that they didn't even take that into consideration. 0.75

00:59:10.660 They cuffed them and let them die there.

00:59:14.340 Yes.

00:59:15.300 Now, Anthony, and I'm sure you're aware,

00:59:19.020 I mean, over here in the U.K., back in the day,

00:59:23.540 what happened in Minneapolis, where everyone was taking the knee.

00:59:28.920 Oh, right, right, George Floyd, St. George Floyd.

00:59:32.300 George Floyd.

00:59:33.120 Sorry, I forgot his name.

00:59:34.700 Apologies.

00:59:35.680 But, yes, George Floyd.

00:59:37.520 Yeah, but could you imagine that, you know, as we say, the footballer on the other side, could we imagine if it was a black guy or somebody of color, shall we say, and not an indigenous white person here in the UK?

00:59:56.080 Right, right.

00:59:58.420 I hope you understand what I'm trying to convey.

01:00:01.520 No, no, no, I do, because when you look at the facts of the George Floyd case, when his medical examiner report came back, it had enough fentanyl in him to kill him.

01:00:12.480 He died of an overdose. And Derek Chauvin, the police officer, was doing everything by the book.

01:00:20.220 He wasn't breaking any rules. The autopsy also showed no damage to George Floyd's neck, no damage to his windpipe, nothing.

01:00:28.420 If you ask me, I'll say it that way, this guy died of a drug overdose.

01:00:33.740 Now you look at this other case with Henry Nowak.

01:00:38.740 This guy was allowed to bleed out on the street in handcuffs,

01:00:44.600 and the cops didn't do anything because they took the word of some immigrants that had stabbed him.

01:00:52.520 You could reverse the situation, and of course there would be riots and mayhem.

01:00:58.220 but how about we don't reverse the situation and people are angry at what we are seeing 0.63

01:01:04.720 cops taking the word of murderous immigrants over the word of a dying brit that is bleeding out on

01:01:14.140 a sidewalk it's disgusting nick correct and um yeah that is exactly you know you succinctly 0.92

01:01:23.900 uh portray that correctly um yeah thank you nick i gotta move on though nick but you be well be

01:01:32.060 well i don't even know what time it is over there it's like what is it wednesday something like that

01:01:36.480 i don't know okay all right well you don't care you don't care i know i got i gotta go i'm running

01:01:41.920 out of time i gotta go to break but nick thank you man i appreciate it my brother he's over there

01:01:47.440 across the pond as they like to call it all right that was good hearing that and that's a huge case

01:01:53.060 everywhere it should be a used case over the entire globe um we'll be back uh more carmelo

01:01:59.520 i want to talk about donald trump unloading on an interviewer and walking off the set

01:02:04.860 also the la election scam that's going on so much going on your calls also when we return

01:02:13.180 in moments it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple podcast network

01:02:19.080 it's the anthony cumia show just keeping an eye on the big story out of new york tonight five

01:02:26.420 people stabbed near penn station last night it says near what i heard in penn station uh

01:02:32.920 this is something amtrak police are leading the investigation i i would love to see that scene

01:02:41.120 the nypd they got the area roped off and some blood on the floor they're writing stuff in their

01:02:48.540 book amtrak police come over who's in charge over here i am nypd not anymore amtrak police

01:02:59.420 why don't you get us some coffee while we work this case this has to be the biggest case amtrak

01:03:06.740 police have had like ever uh i think he's on the train without a ticket that's pretty much what

01:03:15.440 they hear that's what this medal is for i got this one back in uh 93 kicking some guy off the

01:03:23.780 acela up to boston no ticket so uh hey amtrak good good luck with that have fun investigating

01:03:32.920 that the other big story coming up and i was going to talk about this anyway but latest development

01:03:39.240 um decision desk predicts or projects uh nithya raman wins the second of two spots in the california

01:03:52.160 los angeles mayor's non-partisan primary which is hilarious non-partisan this uh wow

01:04:00.320 it it looks like it reeks of fraud that's i i i don't know i don't have anything to

01:04:13.360 to pull up and go here here's your absolute smoking gun proof and i think there is smoking

01:04:23.620 gun proof it just hasn't been uh found yet and exposed because it seems mathematically impossible

01:04:33.580 that this woman could have beaten pratt in this this race first of all the whole

01:04:43.440 la mayor race is run um in a way i like to call silly you you have your candidates

01:04:52.240 and on june 2nd remember june 2nd what was that a few days ago that was that was like

01:05:00.840 it's the seventh that was five days ago they voted but they're still counting ballots

01:05:10.900 they're still counting and back right after the actual election uh pratt was

01:05:19.300 a shoe-in for second place,

01:05:22.620 which would have given him the spot

01:05:24.480 to run against Bass in November.

01:05:28.540 Raman actually started crying

01:05:30.920 when she saw how horrible the turnout was for her,

01:05:35.660 how few votes she had compared to Bass and Pratt.

01:05:42.280 And now she's in.

01:05:45.220 She won.

01:05:45.920 And you got to think, well, how did that happen?

01:05:47.800 mail-in ballots mail-in ballots this is sounding an awful lot like 2020 isn't it

01:05:58.220 and if you look at the graph there's that suspicious uh notch in that very organic curve

01:06:07.380 that goes up people are voting you're you're counting the votes it's a very consistent curve

01:06:15.020 because it's organic and then there's this mechanical digital step up

01:06:21.600 and that step up those votes were going to Nithya Raman

01:06:29.660 who didn't get any of those votes Pratt didn't see any of those they went some of them went to

01:06:40.260 Bass, the vast majority went to Raman.

01:06:45.840 And Pratt just sat there and watched his substantial lead dwindle away to nothing.

01:06:55.020 And now it's over. 0.86

01:06:56.700 She's the projected second candidate that will run against incumbent Mayor Bass in November.

01:07:04.680 and we're not supposed to we're not even supposed to go huh hey did you notice that

01:07:12.660 don't you election denier don't you even say it no no i'm not saying all i'm saying is

01:07:22.320 doesn't it seem a little don't you dare you can't even mention it without them go oh really

01:07:32.440 do you not know how many more democrats than republicans there are it you had the two winners

01:07:43.460 after election day election day not election week not election month not election day for

01:07:52.600 the polls and then election week for for mail-in election month for absentee no

01:07:59.280 this is not the way this works this is supposed to be an election

01:08:07.100 day and everyone goes out and votes and and you count the votes quickly it's the same thing with

01:08:18.880 the uh 2020 election why is it taking so what pipe broke did a pipe break in la where they

01:08:26.740 were counting the votes did they put big poster board up in la where they were counting the votes

01:08:32.600 so no one could peek in and god forbid see fraud happening as they're pulling ballots out of

01:08:39.520 suitcases then you got to think about the um the districts the that they're getting these votes from 0.83

01:08:49.420 And a lot of these mail-in ballots that went predominantly for Nithya Raman were coming from some of the worst areas in Los Angeles, homeless areas, bums, criminals.

01:09:12.060 Where are they getting the ballots? 0.54

01:09:15.520 What are they putting down as their address?

01:09:17.660 the box

01:09:19.760 on Skid Row

01:09:20.960 yeah I live in

01:09:23.460 I reside

01:09:24.060 in the box

01:09:26.300 on East

01:09:29.340 Main Skid Row

01:09:31.460 please

01:09:32.860 and this is what

01:09:35.280 we have to look at and just accept

01:09:37.560 because that's what they

01:09:39.360 told us

01:09:40.000 and this set off

01:09:43.720 old Donald J

01:09:45.600 I guess it was Saturday or Friday night, Saturday.

01:09:50.560 He had taped an interview with Meet the Press, and he walked.

01:09:56.840 He walked on it.

01:09:57.880 We got the clip.

01:09:58.620 We'll play that after the break.

01:10:00.580 But this, like I said, we're not even allowed to say this looks like fraud.

01:10:09.600 Could someone please really look into this because it looks like fraud.

01:10:13.920 You get looks from the left and from Democrats going like, oh, how dare you?

01:10:20.860 How dare you say that?

01:10:24.760 Why?

01:10:25.640 It doesn't look weird that you allow this.

01:10:29.440 And the interviewer that was talking to Trump where he walked out, she said, this is how it's done in Los Angeles.

01:10:37.660 every time he said that there was some type of fraud

01:10:41.560 being perpetrated in Los Angeles during this election,

01:10:45.540 all her answer was, no, this is how the vote is done.

01:10:48.820 What, with fraud?

01:10:50.940 By letting anyone vote any time for weeks on end, 0.98

01:10:55.780 getting ballots to homeless people,

01:10:59.320 slipping them a few bucks for their name,

01:11:02.080 and using that to get your candidate over?

01:11:07.660 And we're not supposed to say anything about it, huh?

01:11:11.480 That's how it works?

01:11:14.960 Well, this really needs to be looked at.

01:11:17.960 I think this really, really needs to be looked at. 0.96

01:11:22.340 Just ridiculous. 0.65

01:11:23.820 Okay, that and a lot more when we return in moments.

01:11:27.540 The Anthony Cumia Show, and I'm scrolling through X,

01:11:31.080 looking at some comments under some of the posts

01:11:33.740 that have let everybody know that Rahman has beaten Pratt

01:11:41.140 for the second place behind Bass,

01:11:45.840 and there's going to be a runoff in November between Bass and Rahman.

01:11:49.880 If you look at the L.A. mayoral race, the votes cast only on Election Day,

01:11:56.760 you know like it's supposed to be done.

01:12:00.000 mail-in votes absentee votes are supposed to be such a small number of votes for people that 1.00

01:12:08.220 couldn't be there they're they're handicapped can't leave the house no one could take them 0.99

01:12:14.280 to the polling places this mail-in voting is completely fraudulent it is being used now for 0.99

01:12:24.260 nothing more than fraud not to help handicapped people not to get people that uh have to uh vote 0.93

01:12:33.100 the next day i it none of it makes sense unless you factor in they want to steal elections 0.90

01:12:42.380 and let's look at it the votes cast only on election day this would have been the vote tally

01:12:50.800 had they stopped voting on Election Day

01:12:54.240 like normal Democratic countries do.

01:13:01.680 Votes cast only on Election Day.

01:13:06.620 Pratt had 34.5%.

01:13:09.100 He was beating Bass at 29.4%

01:13:14.320 and Raman with 26.

01:13:17.280 Latest vote batch,

01:13:18.740 raman has 40 percent of uh the new latest votes coming in she got 19 000 votes 20 000 votes just

01:13:29.440 about how how is this possible and pratt's total in percent went down because the other two

01:13:40.960 Especially Rahman, we're getting so many votes.

01:13:45.000 And Pratt didn't get any?

01:13:47.580 I guess not.

01:13:49.220 That's what happens when you pay homeless people to get their name so you could put their name on a ballot.

01:14:00.460 Why do you think they're not cleaning up the homeless problem?

01:14:04.040 isn't it a great strategy that you keep so many people destitute and poor and broke and hungry

01:14:14.220 and then you can go up to them with a handful of ballots and toss them 20 bucks could you just sign 1.00

01:14:24.300 right here for 20 dollars and they do it why wouldn't you keep as many homeless and illegals 0.64

01:14:32.540 as possible they don't check there's no id needed to vote you don't have to have uh your ballot 0.99

01:14:42.100 uh confirmed by anybody they're self-confirming if you signed it well it's got to be real

01:14:50.840 some guy's got a graph up here going totally normal voting patterns and it's not it's all

01:14:57.580 spiky and ridiculous um here's another one rigged our elections in california are uh rigged we

01:15:06.380 ousted newsom in the recall election he stopped that we need feds to investigate 0.85

01:15:12.880 uh that's what it is congrats to all the homeless mail-in voters on skid row for helping get 0.83

01:15:21.220 nithya over the finish line they might be cracked out of their brain on super meth

01:15:27.240 but our homeless sure are civic-minded yeah i mean the the majority of the comments

01:15:35.080 on every one of these posts saying that nithya raman is now the uh number two candidate the 0.99

01:15:41.680 the the comments are all this is garbage this is fraud this is um a lie unbelievable wow 0.97

01:15:52.020 well um donald trump was doing an interview with uh nbc i believe it was and uh he oh boy he was 0.99

01:16:06.520 not none too happy with the way uh he was being treated in uh in the interview and

01:16:15.460 he was being talked over a lot what's the woman's name let me see kristin walker kristin walker

01:16:24.740 she was doing the interview with trump and uh anytime trump would try to answer her

01:16:31.640 she would just start rambling over him and then when the subject of the election came up

01:16:38.560 the L.A. mayoral election, Trump was saying this just looks terrible.

01:16:46.660 It looks like fraud, and it should be investigated.

01:16:50.660 And she, of course, is towing that company line.

01:16:54.520 Mainstream media cannot allow anyone to go on their stations,

01:17:00.740 their platforms, and say that something is not right.

01:17:07.340 there is a problem with the vote if it involves something that they are pitching their agenda

01:17:16.480 their bosses have told them this is what we put on our channel and if Donald Trump tries to deny

01:17:22.740 it talk over him and he was having none of it let's listen this is a AC 10 the clip and let's

01:17:30.960 listen to trump talking to this woman and then uh leaving just walking off it was a dirty election

01:17:39.340 and it's happening again right now in california it's happening right now in california right now

01:17:46.720 it's looking look at what's happening in california it's four days in california it's no they're not

01:17:53.360 they're dropping fast because it's a rigged let me tell you it's four days and they aren't even

01:17:59.740 close to coming up you know why they're doing that because they're cheating on the election

01:18:03.980 yeah she goes that's the way they vote because it's been four days and they're not even close

01:18:11.320 to finishing counting and she just thinks saying well that's the way they do it what if what how

01:18:17.100 is that a valid excuse for what they're doing as far as accounting votes and how long it takes

01:18:25.100 well that's how it's done in california oh okay all right if taking a shovel and smashing it

01:18:32.320 over the voters heads uh if that's how they do it would you just go oh yeah that's just how it's

01:18:37.040 done that's just how it's done so trump is getting so po'd at uh at her she's she's uh talking over

01:18:47.440 him uh and and he's had it uh continue to support all i have to do is look all i have to do is

01:18:56.480 look and i listen and i listen to people and let's see what happens sir that's not evidence

01:19:01.500 do you think it's appropriate that they have the votes you think it's appropriate that they have

01:19:06.320 an election and five days later they're nowhere close to picking local officials acknowledge they

01:19:11.780 are slow they're urging no they're crooked they're urging the votes to be counted quickly that's how 0.51

01:19:16.220 they're crooked just like you're crooked your press is crooked and meet the press is crooked 0.64

01:19:20.620 to be fair i'm not crooked but let's really well you play right into their hands let's continue 1.00

01:19:25.060 you're either crooked or you're stupid you play right into their hands with this you know that 1.00

01:19:30.840 these elections are rigged your network knows that they're rigged you know that i won an election 1.00

01:19:37.760 in a landslide and i got 94 bad press but mr president you know why i got that because you

01:19:44.160 have no credibility. But you've never presented evidence that it was rigged. Let's keep talking

01:19:47.880 about. I want to talk about Todd. You have more evidence. There's more evidence than ever presented.

01:19:53.600 Let's talk about elections in this country. We're like a third world country. Your elections are

01:19:59.020 crooked and you're crooked. At least the press is crooked. And so is ABC and CBS and CNN. But 0.99

01:20:06.380 Mr. President, you're one sided crooked networks. Let's call it quits because I've had it. Thank

01:20:11.200 you darling have a good time mr president let's please i traveled all the way to wisconsin that

01:20:15.420 crunch was stepping on the mic i know i traveled all the way for an hour on and off in the rain

01:20:21.160 and i've given you enough time you want to straighten out your press because you know what

01:20:25.480 a country can never be great travel with a dishonest listen you traveled all the way to

01:20:30.420 wisconsin for this interview there it is the crunch of the the crunch of the microphone under

01:20:36.460 his foot that's fantastic that is fantastic a country can't be great without a a good press

01:20:45.560 without a press that is honest and truthful um their their their talking point whenever anyone

01:20:53.600 brings up election fraud has been where's the proof where's the proof uh you're never allowed

01:21:01.700 to present it even with the 2020 election and again i i i don't have any magical proof

01:21:10.940 but the courts wouldn't even allow there to be any type of

01:21:18.240 proof to be shown in a court of law they just wrote it off like nope not even gonna look

01:21:27.320 We're not even going to look at anything as far as fraud goes

01:21:30.840 because there's been no fraud.

01:21:33.460 You haven't given us enough.

01:21:34.620 And a lot of these judges, of course, were Obama-appointed judges

01:21:39.520 and Democrat-appointed judges.

01:21:41.940 So it's all politicized. 0.99

01:21:44.820 And now we have this L.A. mayoral election, which looks like garbage. 0.99

01:21:51.820 That's just the way they do it. 0.89

01:21:53.600 But you take days.

01:21:55.000 There are countries that hold elections with populations bigger than California

01:22:01.220 that get the results in before the next day, election day.

01:22:08.440 If you want to spend days counting votes and let people mail in ballots

01:22:15.280 that aren't even confirmed to be the people that are sending them in,

01:22:21.000 then you're just wide open for fraud how could you say no that's not happening no that's been

01:22:29.460 debunked oh stop with your fraud when it's so wide open for fraud leave a bank vault open

01:22:38.220 tell everyone the vault's open don't put any guards there and then when someone goes hey

01:22:45.720 Someone might have taken money out of that vault.

01:22:48.240 Go, stop.

01:22:49.640 Why?

01:22:50.180 Why would you say that?

01:22:51.720 Where's the proof?

01:22:53.540 Well, can we count the money?

01:22:54.880 Nope, not allowed.

01:22:56.500 But if I count it, I could tell if it was, nope, nope.

01:22:59.660 We don't want you because there's been no theft, no thievery from the vault.

01:23:04.640 So we're not even going to count it.

01:23:06.920 But how dare you say there was theft out of the vault?

01:23:10.820 That's what they're doing.

01:23:13.100 Where's the proof?

01:23:13.900 You won't let us prove it. 0.99

01:23:18.360 And even though we hate what they're doing, they're not completely stupid. 0.97

01:23:25.060 There's a lot of what they call plausible deniability in there. 0.98

01:23:30.120 Where you could say, well, what about this?

01:23:32.280 This doesn't look good.

01:23:33.780 Oh, well, they do that because that's the way they do it.

01:23:36.960 Oh, okay, well, I'm sold.

01:23:39.500 Oh, my God.

01:23:40.680 and this this is what we're dealing with even there's even a california sheriff here

01:23:48.780 uh this is clip ac11 a california sheriff is just saying yeah this is just fraud

01:23:56.640 this is rife with fraud uh let's listen to this gentleman the way the voting system is

01:24:03.820 structured uh we see quite a few flaws you're able to register even if and cast a vote if you

01:24:10.200 don't live in uh in the country as evident of his brother in pakistan i think we have some evidence

01:24:15.420 of uh two or three other people out of the country yeah pause pause right there they there's evidence

01:24:21.480 that people that don't even live in this country have voted in this la election and that's not

01:24:29.960 proof oh where's the proof well this guy this is proof yeah we're we're not even going to consider 0.89

01:24:36.020 that or look at it you're you're uh racist and xenophobic for even saying that that a pakistani 0.98

01:24:43.880 man would do something illegal oh you racist and this is this is what we're dealing with 0.95

01:24:50.680 this is their argument to hey something looks off can we please maybe just look at it 0.99

01:24:56.800 oh you're a terrible person go screw all right continue uh yeah approximately two or three other

01:25:02.940 people out of the country as well as people residing outside of the district okay um the 0.99

01:25:08.540 online voter registration system uh it seems to be an honor system um anybody can put information

01:25:15.540 in there to to register to vote um all you have to do is click the box and say that you're not lying

01:25:21.000 and then you'll get an email from the secretary of state or something in the mail saying thank

01:25:26.180 you for registering to vote and there you are once you're on the voter rolls anytime an election

01:25:30.840 comes around guess what you get mailed a ballot right you get mailed something to vote so we

01:25:35.920 found that a little bit problematic a little bit problematic these are these are red flags

01:25:43.280 everything he's mentioned is a red flag can you honestly just go to a website

01:25:49.260 fill it out no proof of who the hell you are is necessary click i'm not lying i love that

01:25:59.320 And then you'll get a ballot in the mail for every election that's going on in that state.

01:26:07.600 Does that seem like a secure system that they got there?

01:26:14.160 Or does it seem like a system that's put in place that can be compromised, that you can commit fraud on and still have enough plausible deniability?

01:26:26.660 the system in and of itself allows fraud to be perpetrated without much proof oh yeah we send

01:26:37.520 the ballots out the person filled out the the website and clicked i'm not lying yeah but

01:26:43.340 does that seem a little uh lax on secure oh stop that's how we do it here that's how we do it what's

01:26:51.780 your problem oh so you do it so fraud could be perpetrated with uh impunity nobody gets

01:26:58.840 caught and then they harvest the ballots there's ballot harvesting where you you fill out a bunch

01:27:07.580 of these online requests for ballots you click i'm not lying on all of them and then you you

01:27:16.940 go around and collect all of these and then you just hand them out you hand them out to the the

01:27:23.540 homeless with 20 bucks and they sign them and you take them back and you mail them in and all the

01:27:30.580 sudden you have a third place by a large margin candidate large marge no large margin candidate

01:27:37.900 that is now in second place

01:27:41.000 and will be on the ballot in November for mayor. 0.82

01:27:45.300 Two, one of them an insane liberal commie 1.00

01:27:49.540 and the other one, the piece of garbage mayor that's been there 1.00

01:27:52.980 and the only time I hear her name 1.00

01:27:55.820 is when something is going horribly bad in Los Angeles.

01:28:02.400 Those are your candidates now.

01:28:04.760 Instead of a guy who was running on,

01:28:07.400 hey let's clean up this homeless problem hey maybe we could do something about the crime and

01:28:12.520 drug abuse how about that can we maybe do that oh that guy oh get rid of him let's get the two 0.53

01:28:24.180 liberals that that want nothing more than to destroy every aspect of how americans have 0.76

01:28:33.120 lived in this country there you go that seems honest doesn't it doesn't that seem like

01:28:40.340 it's all on the up and up and all legitimate what a system they got over there and the more

01:28:49.060 they get away with this nonsense the more emboldened they get it is right in your face 0.98

01:28:55.180 there's a multitude of morons that can't see it but there are so many people that see the fraud 1.00

01:29:02.800 And Trump said it. 1.00

01:29:04.500 Where's the proof?

01:29:05.900 Where's the evidence?

01:29:07.120 And he goes, I can see it.

01:29:10.260 I'm sorry that you guys are so good at fraud

01:29:14.860 that you've presented it in a way that has plausible deniability.

01:29:21.400 But that doesn't mean I don't see it and know it's happening.

01:29:26.300 And there are plenty of us out there that see it.

01:29:29.160 but they got the nuts out there, 0.99

01:29:33.460 the lunatics that believe every single thing 1.00

01:29:36.560 these people do 0.94

01:29:37.420 and they believe these elections are on the up and up

01:29:41.400 when there isn't one indication that it is.

01:29:46.720 The statistics, the graphs that you look at

01:29:50.000 don't look like graphs of an organic

01:29:53.560 count of votes.

01:29:56.000 and we're just supposed to well that's the way they do it that's the way they do it

01:30:02.240 what are we doing people wake up all right back in a minute it's the anthony cumia show

01:30:09.720 entertaining and informative on the red apple podcast network the anthony cumia show and uh

01:30:16.660 talking about the la election a little bit one more thing to add and uh this is i'm seeing this

01:30:21.680 all over social media right now here's the question that doesn't there's no answer to this

01:30:29.000 that makes any sense mathematically uh how did a blue city los angeles only increase votes

01:30:36.380 for nithia by mail without increasing votes for karen bass this is fraud and you look at it

01:30:43.760 all of the mail-in ballots went to nithya raman and and uh karen bass stayed exactly the same

01:30:59.860 percentage wise how does that happen you could say well democrats will vote a lot more as far as uh

01:31:09.900 mail-in ballots go i don't know what that is all about either but they go oh the democrats seem to

01:31:15.300 vote by mail more than republicans do okay then why wasn't it divided between karen bass

01:31:21.700 and nithya rama why did all these votes go to rama i'll tell you why because she needed every single 1.00

01:31:29.340 vote to beat pratt she needed every single one of those if they were able to split the votes and 1.00

01:31:39.180 make it look good and say well no karen bass got some and uh nithya ramen got some but nithya it 1.00

01:31:47.980 was enough to put nithya over uh pratt there wasn't enough they didn't have enough fraudulent

01:31:55.280 votes so they had to give them all to ramen and hope hope that their their their story

01:32:03.540 Their lie, their alibi would hold.

01:32:07.380 And if you look at it, statistically, it is impossible.

01:32:13.680 You might be able to sell that Pratt gets zero mail-in votes.

01:32:20.080 Well, Democrats are the ones that do mail-in.

01:32:22.720 Not a single Republican does it.

01:32:24.480 Okay, all right, I'm willing to even buy that one.

01:32:29.680 but then how do you justify that that ramen got 100 of the mail-in votes and the other democrat

01:32:41.440 bass didn't get any because she needed every single one of them it's the only reason

01:32:48.860 they would have loved it they would have loved if there were enough mail-in ballots 0.82

01:32:54.720 to make it at least look good by giving karen bass some of those votes they couldn't though 0.96

01:33:00.680 god forbid the election actually works and pratt is second place and gets the runoff in november

01:33:09.760 god forbid that happens it's so blatant oh is it so blatant 0.94

01:33:18.380 ah what are we gonna do what are you gonna do there's really nothing we can do we can bitch

01:33:27.400 and moan about it complain point fingers of accusation and they're just too powerful

01:33:34.280 they have too much and they have the media the left has the media in the palm of their hands

01:33:43.420 They work for the left. It's it's the Democrats know they can go to all these news stations and they put the word out. No, this isn't fraud. It's impossible. This is how we do it. This is what we're seeing.

01:34:01.680 remember when they were saying how the 2024 election was fraud because trump won

01:34:08.140 and that there was no way trump could have won that election because kamala was so beloved

01:34:14.920 and beyonce and jay-z performed at uh one of her her rallies and the crowds were huge and this and

01:34:22.980 that you know that that's odd meanwhile every vote could be counted could be looked at if

01:34:31.140 anything it certainly looked like they would have loved to have have uh perpetrated a little fraud

01:34:38.800 on that election but again the margin of victory for trump was way too big so they probably looked

01:34:46.300 at that and went oh boy that would be a tough one this would really expose our white underbelly

01:34:52.400 if we try to fraud our way to a Kamala victory when Trump won every swing state.

01:35:00.460 I still, to this day, believe there was some shenanigans going on in 2024

01:35:04.760 that they couldn't pull off.

01:35:07.260 And this one's marginal. 0.98

01:35:09.360 They had to give every single vote to this woman 1.00

01:35:11.620 and make it look ridiculous that no other votes went to either of the candidates. 0.92

01:35:18.160 And you tell me it's just the way they do it.

01:35:22.400 it's just the way it is

01:35:23.760 it's just the way it happens

01:35:26.480 how do we have faith

01:35:29.880 in the electoral system in this country

01:35:32.280 after the past few years

01:35:33.820 what we've seen over the past few years

01:35:36.900 with the election

01:35:39.600 the actual machinery of the election

01:35:42.800 the voting booths, the ballots

01:35:46.060 and then with the

01:35:48.760 the propaganda that they put against the candidates that they don't want usually

01:35:55.240 republican conservative candidates you have all of these mainstream media news stations thank god

01:36:01.200 for independent media and social media it's the only inkling we get of truth but they use that

01:36:10.040 also they crap all over the candidate they lie about them all it is is bad news you heard trump

01:36:15.920 say that too because i won that last election by a landslide and all it was was negative negative 0.87

01:36:22.360 negative news about donald trump on all these mainstream media news stations yep and what are

01:36:28.940 we supposed to think come november we're supposed to smile and skip to the voting booth and go well

01:36:35.300 i have 100 faith that my vote's going to be counted i matter my vote's just as important

01:36:45.640 as this and that just how are we supposed to hang on to that faith in our system and and once you

01:36:53.940 pull that rug out oofah it's over johnny as far as believing anything that that we have an honest

01:37:03.260 uh truthful government and system in this country that we can believe in and our vote

01:37:11.220 counts and matters they are chiseling away at every belief we have every institution every

01:37:19.140 tradition and we're supposed to smile back in a minute it is the anthony cumia show um if you want

01:37:27.500 to comment uh to me on x it's easy anthony cumia just my name i'm one of those lucky guys that got

01:37:36.240 my name early on on twitter and now it's x so if you want to join any conversation i'm having there

01:37:42.120 or you want to uh send me a little uh comment anthony cumia on x i was just uh going through

01:37:49.560 there and someone was reminding me i'll play this over the mic i think you'll be able to hear it

01:37:54.420 but this is uh nithya raman on election night knowing she lost she she's in tears she's uh

01:38:04.800 apologizing. Listen to this.

01:38:07.300 I hope you know

01:38:08.880 that everything, every person

01:38:10.980 in this room is fighting for

01:38:12.820 in this campaign

01:38:13.780 has been about building a city

01:38:16.660 that's worthy of you

01:38:18.000 and every child in the city.

01:38:23.820 Oh my

01:38:24.820 God. She's crying

01:38:26.680 because she knows

01:38:28.580 she lost.

01:38:30.860 CNN.

01:38:32.340 They posted Nithya Rahman pulled ahead

01:38:34.640 of former reality TV star Spencer Pratt in the race for the second spot

01:38:39.400 in the November election for a Los Angeles mayor after a vote update Sunday evening.

01:38:44.960 But given the narrow margin and the votes still to be counted,

01:38:50.000 CNN is not projecting which of the two will join Karen Bass in the November election.

01:38:56.280 Oh, CNN. Oh, the integrity.

01:39:01.180 CNN is just oozing with journalistic integrity by not calling it.

01:39:09.400 You know damn well that she is going, that Nithya, Nithya Raman is going to be the candidate against Karen Bass.

01:39:24.060 We just, and you know that call went through somewhere.

01:39:28.640 Yes, CNN?

01:39:30.380 Too many people are calling this.

01:39:32.840 There's still votes to be counted.

01:39:34.200 Yeah, no, I know.

01:39:35.200 We know she is the candidate. 0.99

01:39:36.920 We know it.

01:39:37.720 We know it's going to be her in pass.

01:39:39.580 But do us a favor.

01:39:41.500 Don't say that you've called it already.

01:39:44.800 It just looks too bad.

01:39:47.240 Make it seem like, no, there's still votes to be counted.

01:39:49.440 Yeah?

01:39:50.000 Okay.

01:39:50.700 Cool.

01:39:51.160 Great.

01:39:51.440 Thanks.

01:39:51.800 Thanks, man.

01:39:52.960 Click.

01:39:53.700 That's what's going on.

01:39:54.960 You like my acting?

01:39:56.320 My phone acting?

01:39:57.500 I'm like Bob Newhart.

01:39:59.020 Crazy. 0.62

01:40:00.660 All right.

01:40:01.260 Anyone want to chat about this?

01:40:02.980 Let me see.

01:40:04.640 Maybe Joaquin.

01:40:07.080 Joaquin from PA.

01:40:08.760 How you doing, my friend?

01:40:10.780 All right, Anthony.

01:40:11.880 Good Sunday evening to you.

01:40:13.920 You know, I'm going to start off by saying one thing. 1.00

01:40:16.360 You know, we have nothing but weak, pathetic losers, okay, 1.00

01:40:20.740 who just love to cannibalize victory. 1.00

01:40:23.960 And the perfect example is how quickly they want to get rid of George Santos

01:40:28.320 and lose a seat when most callers who were in his district said he was actually

01:40:32.600 doing a good job for them.

01:40:34.400 And, you know, the left will only sacrifice somebody when it's expedient,

01:40:39.240 and they have no value to them anymore.

01:40:41.700 You know, and, you know, you look at everyone with this grand platinum in Maine, right?

01:40:46.300 They keep going after his dalliances and whatever else. 0.98

01:40:49.840 Nobody on the left gives a crap about that stuff. 1.00

01:40:52.100 You know, we have pathetic. 0.99

01:40:55.360 Look, where are we going to get some hardcore people on our side following, 1.00

01:40:59.500 hardcore Republicans that are really going to fight this crap and save this country? 0.94

01:41:04.560 You know, because I follow this guy from Australia, Jason Hode Beast, okay? 0.95

01:41:09.720 He's a veteran, and he puts out, you know, he doesn't have a big following, you know,

01:41:13.940 but he puts out some really good stuff and talks about what's going on down there.

01:41:16.880 And you watch some of these videos on social media about what's going on in Europe, 1.00

01:41:20.700 like recent riots i think in brussels of of third worlders uh who are wilding in the street yeah 0.99

01:41:28.320 putting signs through car windshields you know we what the heck is the matter with with let's face 0.97

01:41:36.060 it it's a white genocide and if white western civilization doesn't wake up and smell the coffee 0.97

01:41:41.120 and i don't necessarily mean just white people but there's many black americans you know we have 0.96

01:41:45.760 a shared history with many black americans uh with many uh hispanic americans you know mexicans

01:41:54.260 fought at the alamo against against santa anna right right but you know when are we going to 0.93

01:42:00.380 have have americans that decide to get together and put all this other crap aside and kick the 0.93

01:42:06.260 rest of the third world out of this country and straighten this crap out who's going to invest 0.82

01:42:10.860 i mean i wish there were some sheriffs out there in california or law enforcement that had the big 0.95

01:42:14.900 cojones to go in there and investigate this election it's uh the fed somehow can't get

01:42:21.020 involved it's it's called uh what do they call it a suicidal empathy or uh it's this

01:42:28.600 this i don't know i don't think it's instinctual it just seems like a lot of americans and a lot

01:42:36.260 of europeans germans french english uh especially geez they are just giving it up over there just

01:42:44.240 They are so fixated on not seeming racist that they will do anything, even to their own demise, to say, look at me, I'm virtuous, I am not racist, I love and include everybody, as they're being hacked to pieces, quite literally in some instances.

01:43:10.700 And I don't get it.

01:43:12.360 I don't get that mindset.

01:43:13.540 i can't accept it and i honestly don't think it's the majority of people that live in america or

01:43:21.100 live in these western um european nations but it sure is discouraging and disheartening to see

01:43:29.140 uh that there doesn't seem to be a light at the end of the tunnel for any of this joaquin and um i 0.99

01:43:36.300 i don't know what to tell anyone that when they go uh because i bitch and complain about it and 0.96

01:43:41.700 they go okay so what do we do what's the solution what is this and i gotta go geez i don't even know 0.92

01:43:47.360 but i certainly don't think we can vote our way out of this so i don't know joaquin i ain't got

01:43:55.380 an answer thanks man it's uh troubling very troubling oh this could be fun let me see he

01:44:05.540 just popped on the phone like kevin cleveland ohio oh i haven't gotten a call from cleveland

01:44:12.300 in quite some time how is uh how is cleveland doing these days we went great i actually just

01:44:19.180 went and seen uh some really funny comics down at hilarities uh on thursday night good club

01:44:25.100 yeah it was a lot of fun uh it was laughing my butt off there uh anyway i called you about um

01:44:30.380 I was just in Pittsburgh.

01:44:32.520 I'm actually on my way back home right now.

01:44:34.660 I was working down at their Pride Festival.

01:44:38.640 Oh, working?

01:44:40.100 Did you bring knee pads?

01:44:41.260 That's very important.

01:44:42.500 And a good brace and bit to drill a hole in the side of the bathroom stall.

01:44:47.060 Did you make out well?

01:44:49.380 Did you make some money?

01:44:51.020 I did pretty good.

01:44:53.080 But I wanted to tell you, I want to just give you a little bit of a rundown of what was going on down there.

01:44:57.500 First of all, I mean, the place was totally packed.

01:44:59.400 I mean, there was tons and tons of people down there.

01:45:02.560 And the first thing, yeah, absolutely. 0.98

01:45:06.600 First thing is, I would say it was probably about 30% like smoking hot girls walking around, pretty scantily clout. 1.00

01:45:17.140 Well, you might not know.

01:45:18.160 It's hard to tell.

01:45:19.420 But and then second of all, the rest of them were like they must have just got out of their parents' basement or something.

01:45:26.840 It was very bizarre.

01:45:27.400 Really?

01:45:28.780 Oh, yeah, go figure.

01:45:30.600 Hey, no, but check this out.

01:45:32.200 This is really my highlight from the weekend.

01:45:35.740 So some of the vendors are starting to pack down, and they're closing up.

01:45:41.020 Well, they had a cooler, and they dumped some ice on the ground,

01:45:44.500 dumped the ice that was left in the cooler on the ground, and they got out of there.

01:45:48.340 Well, I see this furry, and what I mean by that, it was a girl with a tail, 0.86

01:45:53.760 like this big tail.

01:45:54.960 Right.

01:45:55.340 Well, she walks over to the pile of ice, and she's standing on top of it.

01:46:00.580 And I'm like, what is this girl doing? 0.99

01:46:02.360 And she proceeds to use it as a cat box. 0.90

01:46:06.460 And she, number one, number one, doing number one. 1.00

01:46:11.660 And you could see going down her leg.

01:46:14.820 But she was wearing shoes.

01:46:17.580 Wow.

01:46:19.000 So right into the old shoes.

01:46:22.100 I see my dog do that sometimes.

01:46:23.840 is they'll go on their paw when they lift their leg,

01:46:26.380 and it's like, oh, what are you doing?

01:46:27.920 You're going on your paw.

01:46:29.200 But I'll always pat them on the head and say, good boy.

01:46:31.400 Did you pat her on the head and say, good girl?

01:46:33.240 Good girl. 0.84

01:46:34.500 Let's go inside.

01:46:35.460 Let's go inside.

01:46:36.780 Good girl.

01:46:37.680 Did you do that?

01:46:39.680 It was half a freak show is all I wanted to say.

01:46:42.180 Okay, I got to ask you, though. 0.99

01:46:44.520 Was she attractive?

01:46:46.560 No, not at all. 1.00

01:46:47.260 Not that shit. 1.00

01:46:48.360 That makes sense. 1.00

01:46:50.660 Yeah, no, it was mostly bad. 0.97

01:46:53.060 If she was attractive, she'd be on OnlyFans making millions of dollars

01:46:56.740 and not out on a street in Pittsburgh peeing in some ice.

01:47:02.040 I love it, Kevin.

01:47:03.760 Awesome, man.

01:47:05.100 Have a great rest of your weekend, my friend.

01:47:08.380 Just nuts. 0.99

01:47:22.300 because we are, what, the first week, I guess?

01:47:26.580 We're in our first week of Pride Month.

01:47:29.620 Only, what, three more weeks to go.

01:47:35.400 Everything I see that involves Pride Month,

01:47:40.080 it just doesn't seem to be anything to be proud of.

01:47:44.400 I saw a picture today on social media,

01:47:48.220 and it was a Pride parade,

01:47:50.900 And some parents feel compelled to take their young children to these things.

01:47:56.040 I guess, again, they want to go to their friends and families and go,

01:48:01.380 hey, you know what I did today?

01:48:03.760 I took little Johnny to the pride parade because I am so open

01:48:11.620 and I am so tolerant and I want my kid to be like that.

01:48:18.740 i'm making a better world by teaching my kids and you go okay so what did you see what was it like 0.99

01:52:24.300 the perfect example is how quickly they want to get rid of George Santos and lose a seat 0.99

01:52:29.160 when most callers who were in his district said he was actually doing a good job for them.

01:52:33.620 Right.

01:52:34.280 And, you know, the left will only sacrifice somebody when it's expedient,

01:52:39.080 and they have no value to them anymore.

01:52:41.540 Yeah.

01:52:41.740 You know, and, you know, you look at everyone with this grand platinum in Maine, right?

01:52:46.140 They keep going after his dalliances and whatever else. 0.98

01:52:49.680 Nobody on the left gives a crap about that stuff. 0.98

01:52:52.320 No. 0.98

01:52:52.420 You know? 1.00

01:52:53.920 We have pathetic. 0.99

01:52:55.180 Where are we going to get some hardcore people on our side, 1.00

01:52:59.180 hardcore Republicans, that are really going to fight this crap 0.98

01:53:02.540 and save this country? 0.99

01:53:04.640 Because I follow this guy from Australia, Jason Hode Beast.

01:53:09.340 He's a veteran.

01:53:11.340 And he puts out some really good stuff and talks about what's going on down there.

01:53:17.060 And you watch some of these videos on social media about what's going on in Europe, 1.00

01:53:20.520 like recent riots, I think, in Brussels of third worlders 1.00

01:53:25.000 uh who are wilding in the street yeah putting signs through car windshields you know we what 0.97

01:53:33.240 the heck is the matter with with let's face it it's a white genocide and if white western 0.98

01:53:38.500 civilization doesn't wake up and smell the coffee and i don't necessarily mean just white people but 0.98

01:53:43.240 there's many black americans you know we have a shared history with many black americans uh with

01:53:49.360 many uh hispanic americans you know mexicans fought at the alamo against against santa anna

01:53:57.200 right right but you know when are we going to have have americans that decide to get together 0.98

01:54:02.800 and put all this other crap aside and kick the rest of the third world out of this country 0.96

01:54:07.980 and straighten this crap out who's going to investigate i mean i wish there were some 1.00

01:54:11.860 sheriffs out there in california or law enforcement that had the big cojones 0.98

01:54:15.260 to go in there and investigate this election.

01:54:18.840 And I don't see why the Fed somehow can't get involved.

01:54:21.720 It's called, what do they call it, suicidal empathy?

01:54:26.680 Or it's this, I don't think it's instinctual.

01:54:32.120 It just seems like a lot of Americans and a lot of Europeans, Germans, French, English,

01:54:39.940 especially, geez, they are just giving it up over there.

01:54:43.340 They are so fixated on not seeming racist that they will do anything, even to their own demise, to say, look at me, I'm virtuous, I am not racist, I love and include everybody, as they're being hacked to pieces, quite literally in some instances.

01:55:10.640 And I don't get it.

01:55:12.260 I don't get that mindset.

01:55:13.860 I can't accept it.

01:55:15.440 And I honestly don't think it's the majority of people that live in America or live in these Western European nations.

01:55:25.560 But it sure is discouraging and disheartening to see that there doesn't seem to be a light at the end of the tunnel for any of this, Joaquin. 0.92

01:55:35.020 And I don't know what to tell anyone when they go, because I bitch and complain about it.

01:55:41.480 And they go, okay, so what do we do? 0.95

01:55:43.600 What's the solution?

01:55:44.500 What is this?

01:55:44.940 And I got to go, geez, I don't even know.

01:55:47.480 But I certainly don't think we can vote our way out of this.

01:55:51.600 So I don't know, Joaquin.

01:55:54.520 I ain't got an answer.

01:55:56.520 Thanks, man.

01:55:58.320 It's troubling.

01:55:59.880 Very troubling.

01:56:02.900 This could be fun.

01:56:03.980 let me see he just popped on the phone like kevin cleveland ohio oh i haven't gotten a call from

01:58:50.500 Yeah, no, it was mostly bad. 0.97

01:58:53.080 If she was attractive, she'd be on OnlyFans making millions of dollars

01:59:15.080 I forgot.

01:59:15.660 I'm so sorry.

01:59:16.800 I meant to start the show.

01:59:18.680 by wishing everyone a happy Pride Month

01:59:22.140 because we are, what, the first week, I guess?

01:59:26.440 We're in our first week of Pride Month.

01:59:29.360 Only, what, three more weeks to go.

01:59:35.140 Everything I see that involves Pride Month,

01:59:39.920 it just doesn't seem to be anything to be proud of.

01:59:44.240 I saw a picture today on social media

01:59:48.060 and it was a pride parade and some parents feel compelled to take their young children to these

01:59:54.960 things i guess again they want to go to their friends and families and go hey you know what i

02:00:02.420 did today i took little johnny to the pride parade because i am so open and and i i am so uh tolerant

02:00:15.620 and I want my kid to be like that.

02:00:18.680 I'm making a better world by teaching my kids.

02:00:23.360 And you go, okay, so what did you see?

02:00:27.240 What was it like?

02:00:28.600 Because I saw a picture today, and it was a man. 1.00

02:00:33.440 He had cut the ass out of his blue jeans, out of his pants, 0.99

02:00:40.840 uh and sticking out of it was his butt but he was wearing a child's diaper with little cartoon 0.99

02:00:53.320 characters on it that and i i right when i saw the picture i'm like pride how how do you translate 0.99

02:01:03.860 that into being proud how do you look at that leave your house with the ass of your jeans cut 0.92

02:01:12.180 out and cartoon underwear or a diapers sticking out the back and go i am so proud of myself 0.98

02:01:19.520 this is awesome back in a minute the anthony cumia show uh scrolling scrolling on x and uh

02:01:29.820 I got a little update here from the Penn Station stabbing this evening.

02:01:33.800 This seems to be a guy that was an eyewitness right there.

02:01:37.120 He goes, I was right there.

02:01:38.340 The guy was like medium height black guy with gray hair.

02:01:41.880 He came downstairs and was making weird noises and was looking at me and my mom.

02:01:47.680 Right then he pulled a knife and stabbed a black guy in the neck who was standing on the left side.

02:01:54.100 He was about to come hit me, but a few white dudes rushed to protect everyone and we all ran backwards or ran back.

02:02:04.900 It was a very chaotic and a very unsafe situation.

02:02:08.880 I don't know.

02:02:09.580 He hit five people, but I saw him hit one with my eyes right in front of me.

02:02:15.580 Yeah, that's what's going on.

02:02:17.220 So that's the latest on the Penn Station stabbing.

02:02:20.840 my god what the hell is going on just lunacy um oh you know i saw uh a video

02:02:33.140 from the tony awards oh i'm a big tony awards fan

02:02:37.600 uh do you watch the tonys people do you no the academy awards bad enough the grammys

02:02:47.380 the Emmys

02:02:49.140 the Tonys is even worse

02:02:51.960 it's like an awards show which

02:02:53.440 in and of itself is 0.99

02:02:55.280 garbage and then it's 0.99

02:02:57.880 what's the word 1.00

02:02:59.600 oh gay 0.98

02:03:01.320 it's gay 1.00

02:03:03.460 it's all 0.99

02:03:05.080 Broadway

02:03:06.540 and I don't know

02:03:09.480 you see clips the next day because look

02:03:12.020 I do a show

02:03:13.700 I need to know what's going on so sometimes

02:03:15.880 I see clips of the Tonys

02:03:17.060 i couldn't tell you what the hell they were talking about i've never heard of anything

02:03:21.700 they're talking about the plays the oh this one was the best musical drama in a i'm like i i could

02:03:29.780 not tell you anything about that so uh rosie rosie o'donnell has left her exile in ireland

02:03:40.800 to fly back to New York City to attend the Tony Awards.

02:03:47.560 And she had an announcement.

02:03:49.040 I guess she's going to be part of some Broadway show. 0.89

02:03:52.440 So she will be back to being in the United States of America,

02:03:56.820 even though Trump is still president.

02:04:00.100 Huh. 1.00

02:04:01.040 Seems like where, you know, money and her ability to still be a celebrity, 1.00

02:04:07.120 where that's involved, she could just toss this whole, 1.00

02:04:10.140 I'm leaving the country because of Donald Trump thing away.

02:04:13.620 And she got an offer.

02:04:16.260 She got someone offering her money to act and be relevant for a few seconds back on Broadway.

02:04:24.020 Which kind of discounts how passionate she was telling everyone she was about leaving the country because of Donald Trump.

02:04:32.920 She should say, I'm leaving the country because of Donald Trump and because no one's offering me a job 1.00

02:04:38.940 because I'm such a miserable, miserable piece of garbage. 1.00

02:04:43.620 But you're going to be surprised when I say she got a facelift. 1.00

02:04:51.760 She got some plastic surgery, they used to call it my day.

02:04:56.320 Now it's different.

02:04:57.500 It's, you know, it's whatever it is, whatever you want to call it.

02:05:00.660 But back when I was a kid, I heard she got plastic surgery.

02:05:05.840 It doesn't look good.

02:05:07.140 so uh rosie got some plastic surgery i i have a couple of caveats here

02:05:15.060 it couldn't get worse let's put it that way because she she looks better that's what i'm 0.98

02:05:22.560 going to say she looks better than she did before her cosmetic surgery that's what they call it 0.99

02:05:28.860 instead of plastic surgery cosmetic surgery a facelift she looks better than she did but that's

02:05:35.700 with the caveat of it she couldn't look any worse it was getting really bad so uh i guess you know

02:05:44.700 she put a few bucks into it and uh god bless but here she is she was at the tonys she could talk

02:05:51.140 about her show she could talk about um uh uh ireland talk about her kids the one that's still

02:05:59.620 with her and the one that's in jail a drug addict because she's a terrible mother um but

02:06:05.000 what did she choose to talk about donald trump that's right let's listen to rosie 0.65

02:06:14.120 ac-13 up in new york you knew he was a liar from day one and i am 64 years old in my whole life

02:06:22.780 here so i remember when his planes were repossessed off the runways at la guardia

02:06:27.440 I remember when he was broke.

02:06:28.980 I remember when he would call up places and pretend to be his own publicist. 0.97

02:06:33.000 He is a con man. 0.99

02:06:34.560 He is a narcissist. 1.00

02:06:36.080 And he is a psychopath, if you ask me. 0.98

02:06:38.440 How do you think he'll be greeted at MSG tomorrow night? 0.99

02:06:40.400 With a lot of booze, and I'm happy to hear it.

02:06:43.220 A lot of booze?

02:06:45.040 Like people toasting him with their drinks?

02:06:47.000 No, I know what she meant.

02:06:50.060 I'm kind of up in the air.

02:06:52.780 I don't know how Trump will be greeted at the Knicks game tomorrow.

02:06:58.100 He will be attending.

02:07:00.120 The Secret Service put out a tweet saying that there are no bags.

02:07:05.460 You can't come in there with a bag.

02:07:06.740 Everything that you bring in to that arena, Madison Square Garden tomorrow,

02:07:11.920 has to be on your person.

02:07:13.840 You will not be able to take a pocketbook or any kind of bag with you.

02:07:20.100 And I don't know.

02:07:22.780 I, sports people are genuinely, or generally like alphas, they're men, you know, not all

02:07:38.180 of them, but, and I think they tend to like Trump, like he's a dude, he's just a guy,

02:07:44.720 he's a guy, he's a guy, he talks about women, he's a womanizer over his career, and I think

02:07:51.900 he's going to get a good ovation at madison square garden i think people will cheer like they do at

02:07:58.840 ufc you know it's it's different it's obviously a different crowd and people tend to think a lot of

02:08:06.760 uh basketball fans that show up at the the games are predominantly black and people tend to think

02:08:14.540 that black people don't like trump that's not true either i think a lot of black people enjoy 0.92

02:08:21.360 trump he's funny he's kind of you know uh reckless uh he's willing to talk crap about people 0.98

02:08:29.040 and i think uh uh black guys appreciate you know his gangsta attitude early trump 0.97

02:08:35.180 you're fired the the the new york city uh builder trump uh but a lot of white people go to basketball

02:08:44.420 games the only people that could afford the tickets for god's sake so uh i think he's going

02:08:51.120 to get a much better ovation than people think he will we'll see though it could be booze it could

02:08:56.800 be i i i don't know but it's going to be fun to watch and uh rosie uh talking about old trump like

02:09:07.500 we knew he was she said a-hole that's the word that was bleeped out uh like that's why we loved

02:09:16.900 him no one hated trump back in those days you might have been like oh god this guy oh he's so

02:09:25.620 full of himself but no one hated him because he was a personality oh a new york personality

02:09:33.380 when when you would go to the um new york post and read about new york uh the society pages because

02:09:41.840 he was so rich you know he was so much different than all of them and it was it was great he was

02:09:49.740 uh he was part of new york still is and for rosie to be like talking about how uh people didn't like

02:09:59.120 him back then or she didn't like him back then it's phony that's a lie she loved him back then

02:10:04.840 everyone did he was a character he was a new york character so it's all crap but uh hands uh 0.90

02:10:13.240 hats off hats off hands off hats off to rosie though for the uh the uh plastic surgery it does

02:10:22.320 look better she doesn't look uh as old it's amazing how they could stretch that much anger

02:10:28.720 resentment and bitterness out of a miserable miserable person's face like rosie all of those 1.00

02:10:38.780 those tight wrinkles and the lips her lips are stretched so tight just from yelling and being

02:10:45.940 angry and a talented surgeon came in and loosened all that up i guess good good for rosie all right

02:10:55.920 Don't you go anywhere.

02:10:57.160 We're back in moments with a lot more of the Anthony Cumia Show.

02:11:01.280 It certainly is the Anthony Cumia Show.

02:11:03.160 Let's go to Larry in Staten Island.

02:11:05.220 Larry, what's up, my friend?

02:11:08.200 Hey, Ann.

02:11:09.540 How you doing, Larry?

02:11:11.220 I put my bed in with FanDuel.

02:11:12.960 I can guarantee you, at the next game,

02:11:17.700 Charles Manson will get a greater response than Osama,

02:11:23.180 what's his name?

02:11:24.140 but i can't believe it who donald trump you think trump's gonna get booed

02:11:28.540 no no mandami mandami oh mandami's gonna get a terrible uh ovation um and trump is gonna go i

02:11:38.840 think trump's gonna get a good reaction i really think he's gonna get a good reaction

02:11:43.620 yeah mandami would get booed uh yeah we'll see interesting yeah go to fanduel uh predicts

02:11:51.180 And please, you bet.

02:11:53.680 Larry, you want to talk about this Delaney Hall, Newark, New Jersey,

02:11:58.360 ICE facility that these, I will not call them protesters.

02:12:04.680 These are agitators, rioters,

02:12:08.160 and they are breaking the law every second they are standing there.

02:12:13.380 Larry, comment.

02:12:14.200 Absolutely.

02:12:15.980 Last night, 38 arrests were affected.

02:12:18.620 Of the 38 arrests, two, two, Anthony, were from New Jersey.

02:12:25.500 Now, the question is, where are these people coming from?

02:12:31.440 Who's supporting them?

02:12:33.180 I would really consider that they take the advice of what Rudy Giuliani

02:12:39.280 and Bill Bratton did when they got in in 93.

02:12:42.280 aggressively you sit down and you you you turn these people upside down uh you you drill you

02:12:50.840 drill them you drill them and there's no no promises no desk appearance tickets no you go

02:12:59.360 through the system arrest you go through the system you sit in a newark holding cell in jail

02:13:07.180 with other criminals until you see the judge that's what these these people need to go through

02:13:15.200 they aren't cut out for that by the way and they're being treated with kid gloves

02:13:20.000 and uh they really the only way to stop this is to let them see the real consequence of action

02:13:26.560 of uh breaking the law like this exactly exactly this is a condition that's not ending so once

02:13:33.740 you stop putting them in, put them in, let them get locked up, maybe it'll subside a

02:13:40.000 little, but it's got to stop.

02:13:42.380 And by the way, Anthony, I want to let you know, next week is your name day, St. Anthony.

02:13:47.960 St. Anthony, ah, hey.

02:13:51.920 Now, my man there, St. Anthony, is the patron saint of Lost or Found.

02:13:58.700 What I want you to do, Ant, and it works, let me tell you, I've done it a hundred times

02:14:02.860 from my mother, she told me, pray to St. Anthony, if something's lost, like your keys or something,

02:14:09.080 just say, St. Anthony, St. Anthony, I'm glad you're around.

02:14:13.880 If something's lost and it can't be found.

02:14:17.820 How about the whole country?

02:14:19.960 Can St. Anthony get that since we lost that, maybe?

02:14:24.320 So I pray to St. Anthony, he'll bring back the lost United States of America that I remember so dearly.

02:14:30.380 Larry, thank you, man.

02:14:32.060 Appreciate it.

02:14:32.860 uh yeah i was just uh just looking let me see uh this came in about 15 minutes ago from nick

02:16:47.840 and so concerned with what is going on

02:16:53.320 with their little life

02:16:54.820 that they can't even consider anything else.

02:17:00.260 They can't look at this situation and go,

02:17:03.040 I am one of a bunch of people

02:17:07.000 that are getting in the way of these cops doing their job.

02:17:11.920 And I have to completely expect consequences

02:17:15.060 when they decide enough is enough.

02:17:18.680 She just yelled, I'm autistic.

02:17:21.760 Stay home, Grandma.

02:17:23.560 Stay home.

02:17:29.680 And maybe that'll, you'll feel involved without having to cry. 0.87

02:17:37.000 and have your hand touched so you could start screaming that you're autistic. 0.97

02:17:43.920 Holy moly. 0.99

02:17:46.940 That's crazy. 1.00

02:17:49.640 Here's another lunatic. 1.00

02:17:51.320 We might as well talk about some liberal lunatics. 1.00

02:17:53.720 This clip would be AC4. 1.00

02:17:55.580 This is a woman.

02:17:56.860 You know, Donald Trump, he loves the history of this country.

02:18:04.020 uh part of the history of this country has been the pomp and circumstance the the the statues

02:18:12.180 the monuments in dc i'll tell you one thing unless you have business in washington dc

02:18:19.800 there is no reason to go there except for the monuments museums the air and space museums great

02:18:28.340 Smithsonian. But to just walk around Washington, D.C., it's the amazing buildings, the architecture,

02:18:37.420 the monuments that are amazing. They've been iconic in D.C. for so long, and they are amazing

02:18:50.380 to see in person they have fallen into a disgraceful state uh the statues are covered 0.93

02:19:01.220 with crap none of the fountains were working they shut off the water to all of the fountains 0.90

02:19:08.940 from what i'm going to talk about the reflecting pool uh which was had so much algae and gunk in 0.98

02:19:17.520 it it stunk it was disgusting to look at and a lot of the statues didn't have water in them

02:19:25.300 and they were crusty people had put graffiti on them and donald trump said you know the capital 0.97

02:19:33.140 of this country washington dc this amazing place why does it look like garbage

02:19:39.760 and allotted money to fix it.

02:19:45.440 As a taxpayer, I would so much rather money go to that 0.98

02:19:50.940 than go to paying for hotel rooms for illegal aliens in this country. 1.00

02:19:56.880 Call me crazy, but I think there's a hell of a lot more crazy people 1.00

02:20:01.440 that think the same damn thing. 0.96

02:20:03.180 I like the idea that we as a nation are proud enough of what we built, of Washington, D.C., the capital of this country, being the representation of this country. 0.87

02:20:19.820 When a dignitary comes to D.C. and looks around and goes, wow, they really appreciate this country.

02:20:28.140 This place looks good.

02:20:29.340 uh there's not garbage around it and graffiti painted on these amazing monuments

02:20:37.080 so donald trump decides let's drain this swamp no pun intended that is the reflecting pool

02:20:48.040 between the lincoln memorial and the washington monument and let's uh redo the bottom it was

02:20:55.600 leaking i think they said 40 000 gallons a day of water was just leaking out of it let's fix it

02:21:04.740 seal it up put a new uh uh liner type thing that is very reflective when water's on it

02:21:12.280 and uh fix it yeah it costs money that's something i think a lot of taxpayers are fine with

02:21:23.080 fine with it it represents us it's like if you own a business you want your lawn and your front

02:21:32.600 door to your business to look good it's representative of who you are and how you

02:21:38.980 do business that's dc so we did it and it uh they're still filling it up as far as i know

02:21:47.740 But from what I saw already, it looks amazing.

02:21:51.460 It's clean.

02:21:52.980 It doesn't smell like a swamp.

02:21:55.520 And you could already see the reflection of the picture I saw of the Washington Monument in the water.

02:22:01.940 Mission accomplished.

02:22:04.800 But because it's Donald Trump and because they've been told that somehow this has to be bad.

02:22:14.960 no one on the left can look at it and go wow that's great job well done i can't stand this

02:22:22.880 guy i don't like his policies whatever it is but this was a good one cannot happen so uh let's

02:22:30.020 listen to this woman ac4 about trump rebuilding uh the reflecting pool i honestly think it's just

02:22:37.900 about him it's his ego and he's saying well i did this i did this because he has no control

02:22:42.820 the government so at least he can control the grounds because they don't have any answered

02:22:47.180 response seeing all this is it's sad it's really sad it's sad a clean refurbished reflecting pool

02:22:58.780 in the capital of the united states the place that represents us as a nation

02:23:06.980 you have a problem you have a problem with that got a problem with that

02:23:14.280 this is where what they call you know i i don't use the term because it's so hack it's been used

02:23:22.200 so many times trump derangement syndrome but it is it's to the point where you hate this guy so 0.93

02:23:29.940 much based on nothing more than what you've heard from propaganda outlets and your dopey 0.59

02:23:37.040 blue haired friends that even if he does something that right in front of your face is good it looks 0.97

02:23:45.720 good it smells good you have to crap all over it pride in your country is a bad thing making

02:23:57.040 your monuments look good again after years of neglect under these these presidents and 0.52

02:24:05.880 leadership that doesn't care that's a bad thing and he's only doing this because he can't run

02:24:14.440 the country isn't he doing things that you hate isn't he destroying democracy if that's the case

02:24:22.120 then he's at least doing something right how could he be doing nothing in government that he has to

02:24:27.380 refurbish a reflecting pool to make himself look good if he's not doing anything in the government

02:24:34.040 that you complain about every single day and if it's for his ego i've said this many times

02:24:41.920 as far as a politician goes if they take on a project based on their ego and wanting some kind

02:24:50.460 legacy and to look good if that's a good thing that they're doing who cares what their motive was

02:25:00.420 you want to talk about a great example of the end justifies the means

02:25:05.520 if donald trump wants people years from now to look at the reflecting pool in dc and go wow this

02:25:14.280 looks great and then some old guy comes over goes you know donald trump refurbished this and it

02:25:21.300 looks and the person turns around goes anthony from the anthony cumia show yes yes that's me

02:25:28.460 shiny and scene now if he wants people to remember that he did that yeah great who cares

02:25:39.080 what's wrong with wanting to be proud of the job you've done but these are the type of people that

02:25:49.680 have no concept of pride in work pride in who you are and what you do all they want to do

02:26:00.160 is cause problems be contrarian to every single thing that someone's trying to do to improve 0.55

02:26:07.240 something and bitch and complain and moan about everything oh he's just doing that to look good

02:26:15.920 yeah do you understand as the president that's kind of his job to do things where people go wow 0.94

02:26:23.820 that was good the president did something good what's his name let's write that in a history

02:26:32.920 book that's been every president in the history of this country but they just can't let it go

02:26:42.140 if it's good and it's trump it's bad it's gotta be the way it is oh no did i lose my phones

02:26:51.560 i lost my phones did i hit something or was it at your end new york uh

02:27:01.900 I'll have to go on to something else then.

02:27:04.400 I appreciate your calls.

02:27:06.360 Believe that.

02:27:08.680 Okay, this is Sunny Hostin.

02:27:11.720 Sunny Hostin from The View.

02:27:14.220 The girls from The View. 0.99

02:27:16.000 She's going to talk about illegals and how, you know, if you pay your taxes, it doesn't matter. 1.00

02:27:22.960 Go screw. 1.00

02:27:23.840 Because illegals are paying more taxes than you are. 1.00

02:27:27.980 This is AC9. 1.00

02:27:29.140 most undocumented immigrants pay more taxes uh than anyone and anyone mentioned that

02:27:36.300 less than uh they're five times less likely to commit crimes than americans

02:27:42.300 they pay more taxes than anyone anyone first of all i'd like to know how you know

02:27:51.940 if an illegal alien isn't paying taxes how do you know they're not paying taxes

02:27:58.880 If they are paying taxes, how do you know they're illegal? 0.90

02:28:03.940 Do they write down, I am an illegal alien when they pay taxes?

02:28:07.480 How do they get a social security number? 0.89

02:28:11.460 The fact is, most illegal aliens are not paying taxes. 0.96

02:28:17.120 The vast majority are not.

02:28:19.920 What she's really saying is, illegal aliens that pay taxes are paying their taxes.

02:28:26.400 well what about the ones that aren't it is known this is a cash gig the the vast majority of

02:28:35.920 illegals in this country get cash they don't get checks they don't have taxes taken out of their

02:28:43.380 paychecks fica and unemployment and state taxes and medicaid none of that it's did you do your 1.00

02:28:53.100 work see and then you hand them a handful of cash and away they go they're not back where they live

02:29:02.280 trying to figure out how much cash they made during the year and how much old uncle sam ought

02:29:08.180 to get it's a lie it is a lie and as far as the crime thing goes again how do you know how do you

02:29:17.960 know anything about the crime and and one of the concepts uh they're committing more crime than

02:29:24.680 americans what what does that mean and and one thing they never understand it's a little term

02:29:30.980 look it up it's called per capita per capita now if you look at the american population

02:29:40.920 of 350 odd million and you look at the number of crimes they commit per capita based on how 0.62

02:29:51.080 many illegals are here in this country and how much crime do they commit i think you'd be surprised 1.00

02:29:59.100 and by the way technically speaking they're all committing crimes coming across the border in the 1.00

02:30:06.320 first place so once again sunny hostin is bending over grabbing each cheek and speaking her mind

02:30:16.720 right through it uh back in a minute don't go anywhere it's the anthony cumia show

02:30:23.360 entertaining and informative on the red apple podcast network

02:30:27.640 the anthony cumia show i got my phones back and uh hey thanks everybody for tuning in

02:30:34.980 on this uh sunday we do appreciate your support with this very program max max in manhattan what's

02:30:43.580 up max yes anthony thank you for taking my call sure um you didn't you did not keep up to your

02:30:50.360 end of the bargain you said uh we were going to get more jesse ventura and more bob grant

02:30:55.320 uh no yeah i know i've been uh with these serious topics that you know uh i apologize i'm gonna i'm

02:31:05.620 gonna do better i'm gonna do better max i uh can i add something else certainly

02:31:12.140 okay some time ago when michelle bachman was still a congresswoman she wrote a letter to the

02:31:20.880 Inspector General Geisel

02:31:22.960 and it basically said

02:31:25.380 in a nutshell

02:31:25.980 we have to be careful of all the people that 0.98

02:31:29.160 Hillary Clinton 1.00

02:31:30.300 is hiring right now 1.00

02:31:32.560 because a lot of them are ties to the Muslim Brotherhood

02:31:34.980 like Anthony

02:31:36.980 Wiener's ex-wife. Right. 1.00

02:31:39.320 One of our best friends.

02:31:42.400 Best

02:31:42.960 carnal friends, right?

02:31:44.520 Yes.

02:31:45.800 I mean

02:31:48.740 if that's true that's their

02:31:50.800 business but when it comes to politics in the muslim brotherhood then it's our business um

02:31:56.180 you know if this was going on back then how much more now how much more with mandani 0.99

02:32:02.120 with mandani in there yeah exactly and you know as far as hillary goes though i think her motive 0.99

02:32:09.460 is money more than anything money and power but uh what's her what do you think her angle is

02:32:16.740 as far as aligning with the Muslim Brotherhood or Mamdani 1.00

02:32:20.040 to get money in her big, hip pants pockets. 0.71

02:32:26.340 Well, I mean, she, you know, I guess when you're in that level of politics,

02:32:29.500 you have to be able to, like, dance at a ballroom with different people

02:32:32.600 and know what type of dance they're going to do.

02:32:35.300 So this explains, you know, what type of, you know, who's running the show. 0.94

02:32:40.580 She has to be able to dance with who's running the show.

02:32:42.300 If it's Soros, fine. 0.92

02:32:43.740 If it's Mamdani, it's a Muslim Brotherhood. 0.84

02:32:45.620 she has to be able to dance with him yeah so she's not loyal to anyone back then yep yep she's not 0.93

02:32:51.280 loyal to anyone and uh you know it used to be where there was a guy by the name of aaron klein

02:32:56.560 and he used to pull up all this garbage and i'm sure if he was still doing reporting now he'd pull

02:33:01.560 up tons of garbage on mom donnie and his associations i'm sure he has associations

02:33:06.000 with uh plano texas that turned that place has about 330 mosques in there already yeah yeah all 0.98

02:33:11.820 the mosques they built there geez what are we doing as a country why are we allowing this 0.92

02:33:16.380 it's disgusting uh max i'm gonna have to let you go we're a little short on time here i think i 1.00

02:33:23.500 have enough time to uh we'll leave with something a little fun seth rogan i've bashed him for being 0.53

02:33:31.760 um an old guy who's still so into weed and i get it i don't want to sound like somebody that's like

02:33:39.480 oh uh you shouldn't do you shouldn't smoke do you shouldn't smoke weed once you get older no

02:33:45.780 have at it have a blast but his whole life his whole persona is pot and it just seems like

02:33:54.260 enough you know you don't want to if if someone decides to smoke that's fine but i don't think

02:34:01.560 you want to push anyone into it and his his just obsession with weed seems to uh be unhealthy

02:34:10.240 especially to people that might like him as a person young people that might go like oh

02:34:15.040 i want to be like seth rogan but uh here he is talking about weed this is ac7

02:34:21.100 i smoke weed all day every single day since i was 20 years old maybe something like that 20

02:34:27.560 I equate it to shoes or glasses.

02:34:30.840 Like, are shoes like a crutch we use?

02:34:33.660 Or are they a thing that we have culturally decided to make our lives easier and better?

02:34:39.260 You know, that is exactly how weed is to me.

02:34:42.440 Could I not wear shoes?

02:34:43.920 Probably.

02:34:44.920 Could I not smoke weed?

02:34:46.780 Probably.

02:34:47.740 Would I just much rather smoke weed all day?

02:34:49.960 Yes.

02:34:51.180 Now, I don't know if he's trying to be funny there, but I think he's serious.

02:34:55.380 I think he looks at smoking weed every day like wearing shoes, putting on your shirt.

02:35:04.360 That seems like a problem.

02:35:07.900 That seems like you're trying to rationalize something that isn't very good.

02:35:13.680 And look, shoes, yeah, you put shoes on so you don't cut your feet up when you're going out.

02:35:20.220 We live in a civil society. 1.00

02:35:23.320 You're supposed to cover up your ugly, stupid feet. 1.00

02:35:26.980 Trying to equate weed smoking to something everyone does every day, 1.00

02:35:32.300 like putting on their shoes, is a terrible way to try to rationalize

02:35:37.940 that you are smoking a mind-altering drug every single minute of every day.

02:35:44.640 He claims to smoke all the time.

02:35:48.400 The second he wakes up until the second he goes to sleep,

02:35:51.120 he is affected by weed and i know a lot of people that smoke and they uh they say well after a while

02:35:58.960 you don't even notice that you're high it's just a thing well i think that's the point you're not

02:36:05.300 noticing you're high i i don't even know the physical implications to smoke and weed all the

02:36:11.780 time but mentally it cannot be good anything that takes you away from who you really are

02:36:20.720 and how you really think without drugs or alcohol cannot be healthy physically or mentally

02:36:27.840 and uh as a kid it was kind of fun that this guy is such a stoner and he made movies about

02:36:37.440 being a stoner but as you get older uh it's just not cute anymore who do they tell what was that

02:36:43.880 mommy dearest when they said it's just not cute anymore joan uh thanks for tuning in everyone
