00:01:05.800 How are you

00:01:07.080 doing this Sunday evening,

00:01:09.480 my friends? The Anthony

00:01:11.000 Cumia Show and

00:01:13.020 a great weekend? I

00:01:15.120 certainly hope so.

00:01:17.280 Out and about, you know,

00:01:19.580 doing what I do on the weekends

00:01:21.220 going out into greenville which uh oh boy had a little news story that uh came in yesterday i

00:01:30.600 think it was our uh little mall we have a mall here in greenville south carolina and uh a shooting

00:01:38.320 yawn a shooting why wouldn't there be why wouldn't there be a shooting

00:01:47.800 you'd think greenville south carolina great place i moved here a couple of years ago

00:01:56.500 i searched i i i really did a lot of uh legwork about a year with realtors oh god realtors 0.99

00:02:08.860 driving around with blonde, bubble-headed blonde women 1.00

00:02:14.780 that are a little too old to be as flirty as they are. 1.00

00:02:20.200 Those are realtors.

00:02:21.080 In giant caddies or Lincolns like the old days.

00:02:26.680 You want to ride with me or follow?

00:02:29.200 I'll follow you.

00:02:30.960 A thousand miles an hour down every side street.

00:02:34.360 then they got to tell you about everybody that bought a house from her and i had to go through

00:02:41.180 all that i i took a little tangent there but i had to go through all that because i

00:02:48.520 could not take being in new york anymore just couldn't do it the the crime the uh you know

00:02:57.740 But you pay taxes where you think the streets should be paved with gold.

00:03:03.220 And they're not even paved.

00:03:07.760 And I decided Greenville, South Carolina, that's the place for me.

00:03:15.100 Peaceful, neighborly, southern, still on the East Coast.

00:03:20.220 So it's not that hard.

00:03:21.780 I still have friends and family in New York.

00:03:23.760 So I fly up there.

00:03:25.820 It doesn't take long at all.

00:03:27.740 and uh the past i don't know year or so uh downtown greenville there was a stabbing and

00:03:38.480 fights and then uh just yesterday i guess it was uh a shooting at the mall and uh yes someone was

00:03:50.740 arrested someone that was compelled to to uh look at the the weather i guess that morning

00:04:00.120 when the afternoon excuse me when they woke up and uh seeing that it was 93 degrees out

00:04:09.040 we're in a bit of a heat wave on the east coast uh decided to put a wool long sleeve wool hoodie on

00:04:17.700 and shoot up the mall in Greenville, South Carolina.

00:04:26.560 That's what's going on down here.

00:04:29.900 Look, I understand.

00:04:31.980 It isn't happening on a daily basis like it is in some of the large cities around the country.

00:04:38.500 New York City, of course, Chicago, L.A., Detroit, Baltimore, Atlanta, D.C.

00:04:48.420 I could go on and on and on and on.

00:04:52.780 But when you move somewhere to get away from that, literally to get away from it,

00:05:00.820 I was taking the Long Island Railroad in to Manhattan every day,

00:05:05.200 and the second that train pulls into Penn Station,

00:05:09.960 you're on red alert.

00:05:12.100 Red alert.

00:05:12.820 There was just a stabbing in Penn Station.

00:05:16.300 I spoke about that on this very program last week.

00:05:19.920 The second you get off that train,

00:05:22.100 if you don't have your head on a swivel

00:05:24.120 and your legs and feet ready to move,

00:05:27.900 you're not doing what you need to do.

00:05:30.040 your survival instincts

00:05:33.200 are gravely lacking

00:05:35.240 and

00:05:37.200 don't let anyone tell you I'm being

00:05:39.420 paranoid and this isn't happening

00:05:41.460 it is

00:05:42.740 it is

00:05:43.920 so

00:05:46.220 a lot of people would like to move away

00:05:49.580 from some of the places they're in

00:05:51.520 these cities and they can't

00:05:53.540 they can't move away

00:05:55.020 kids are in school they have a job

00:05:57.620 that they cannot relocate

00:05:59.260 that makes them good money.

00:06:02.740 There's just a litany of reasons that people have for not being able to leave.

00:06:08.100 God bless.

00:06:09.960 I was able to leave, and I did.

00:06:14.460 And I did my homework, and I wanted to find a peaceful place that's nice, nice people.

00:06:20.880 and I look at my ex-account

00:06:28.860 and people are just sending me the link.

00:06:31.780 Hey, Anthony, what happened?

00:06:33.820 What happened to your wonderful Greenville, South Carolina?

00:06:38.340 I see on Main Street on the weekends there's fights

00:06:41.340 and there was a shooting at the mall.

00:06:43.760 And I go, I don't know what to tell you.

00:06:46.400 I would love if there was a single place in this country to move to where we do not have to deal with that, with the non-stop crime and violent crime.

00:07:06.940 you know years ago when i was a kid i i always got the impression i guess through cartoons

00:07:14.500 that crime was uh a guy he he had a mask on over his eyes and a hat and he was dressed in black

00:07:23.200 and uh he'd go through your window or he'd go into a bank vent and he'd come out with a black

00:07:31.400 bag with a dollar sign on it yeah i don't know why a criminal in hindsight would put a money sign

00:07:41.240 on his his bag that he's putting the goods into but that's what i thought it was and it seemed

00:07:48.680 like uh you know we're all asleep cat burglars we heard about that they'd sneak into people's

00:07:55.800 houses while they slept and they were so quiet that people never even woke up they just walked

00:08:03.680 around like a cat and they took your valuables i'm looking for your valuables sir and uh again

00:08:14.280 that was that was years ago and when i was a kid that was my impression of of crime and people

00:08:20.780 getting stuff stolen from them the truth of the matter is the crime we have in 2026 is violent

00:08:31.820 crime deadly violent crime and there is a segment of society perpetrating a lot of it

00:08:41.700 a whole lot of it and and it does not seem like the people in power the people that are

00:08:50.200 responsible for the protection of the citizens from Donald Trump as president 0.99

00:08:56.440 right down to a damn dog catcher in your town. 0.99

00:09:02.240 They have been given the job of keeping you relatively safe. 1.00

00:09:09.860 No one could do that 100%, but that's their job.

00:09:14.580 and no one no one wants to say what needs to be said no one wants to do what needs to be done

00:09:24.040 i bring up uh mayor brandon johnson in chicago constantly there are murders every single week

00:09:34.940 going on the weekends are uh double jeopardy where you can kill twice as many people

00:09:40.480 uh that's chicago this guy's the mayor it's his job as the boss of the chicago police department

00:09:51.500 to do whatever needs to be done to protect the people and every week like so much cordwood

00:10:01.700 bodies get stacked up and innocent people look they're a gang on gang violence happens all the

00:10:09.480 time people get shot and then you hear the usual stuff well there's no suspects yet they don't have

00:10:15.820 a lead on anybody no one's really talking you know what that means a gang member shot another

00:10:22.800 gang member and don't worry we'll take care of it we don't need the police we don't need you

00:10:28.600 we'll deal with it and then the next couple of days or a week you read about someone else that

00:10:33.880 got blasted in the head and uh you go oh okay they're taking care of their own business

00:10:38.680 The only problem with that is that sometimes through a lack of the ability to fire a weapon accurately, grandma gets hit, or God forbid, children are constantly being hit.

00:10:56.220 Innocent bystanders, they say, and they say a stray bullet.

00:11:00.880 A stray bullet would be one that jumped out of an ammo box and flew into somebody.

00:11:06.360 When someone is purposely firing a gun to kill someone, that's not a stray bullet.

00:11:12.760 Whoever it hits that is injured or killed, that is the direct responsibility of the person firing the weapon, not the stray bullet.

00:11:23.860 But, you know, we've been told that that's how we have to talk about this.

00:11:31.720 and when you have someone like Brandon Johnson

00:11:34.440 and he's not the only one

00:11:35.620 they're New York mayors

00:11:36.700 believe me

00:11:37.700 I'm going to get on Mamdani

00:11:39.240 about his taking care of the riots

00:11:43.520 that went on last night

00:11:45.200 because of the Knicks victory

00:11:46.480 but these mayors

00:11:48.760 liberal, communist, minority mayors

00:11:53.240 whatever you want to call them

00:11:54.120 they are not doing what needs to be done

00:11:56.560 to protect the citizens

00:11:58.680 that pay the taxes

00:12:00.300 go to work

00:12:01.300 live their lives, try to live their lives

00:12:03.920 and raise their families in a peaceful place

00:12:07.320 like Greenville, South Carolina

00:12:10.660 where now I have to

00:12:13.560 what, head on a swivel here

00:12:16.260 when I go to the mall

00:12:19.060 first of all, you wouldn't get me in a mall

00:12:21.260 if there were signs on the outside that said

00:12:23.860 everything here is free

00:12:25.760 I'd go, you know what, it isn't worth it anyway

00:12:29.460 all right look we are just getting started there is so much to talk about and i cherish

00:12:37.260 your thoughts so give us a call 800-848-9222 that would be 800-848-9222 lots to talk about

00:13:45.920 is this ufc thing kicking off or uh i think there's a weather delay there have been some

00:13:52.680 insane storms uh up and down the east coast today uh they pass by fast but man they are brutal

00:14:02.380 so i i hope uh that gets underway i know a lot of uh democrats of course liberals oh boy do they

00:14:10.740 not like this whole thing we've been seeing it on social media reading about it all week

00:14:16.360 uh for longer than a week the second it was announced um that this was going down that

00:14:23.320 they were going to have a ufc about uh a whole card as a matter of fact at the white house on

00:14:31.800 the white house lawn uh the democrats and liberals oh my god this is the the worst thing ever how

00:14:40.760 how are they letting him do this to the white house and uh all i can say is did did they look

00:14:50.380 at the pride month activities that were going on at the white house during the biden administration 0.99

00:14:58.020 this debaucherous degenerate sex show now look i don't mind a debaucherous degenerate sex show 0.96

00:15:09.060 every so often but that's the kind of thing that does not belong at the white house they were 0.99

00:15:16.140 bitching and moaning about uh a motorcycle stunt show there were motorcycles doing some extreme

00:15:22.780 stunts and flips on ramps um uh at the white house and and yeah that's great oh how what a

00:15:34.400 disgrace it is this is what he's turned the white house into they want to make it seem like he is

00:15:41.520 treading on the sanctity of the White House. 1.00

00:15:49.300 And they were the ones that had transgender people flashing, 1.00

00:15:58.940 walking around half naked, flashing their chests on the White House lawn 1.00

00:16:06.380 as they decked the entire White House out in the rainbow colors 1.00

00:16:12.340 of the LGBTQA1 plus community. 1.00

00:16:20.700 I don't know how Steak Sauce got in there, 1.00

00:16:22.680 but I just noticed the other day A1's in there. 1.00

00:16:26.180 How is Steak Sauce gay? 1.00

00:16:28.660 I don't want to hear anyone's take on why Steak Sauce would be gay 0.93

00:16:34.300 because just thinking about what you people would say disgusts me.

00:16:39.520 But, yeah, that was going on at the White House under the Biden administration.

00:16:47.500 Yet motorcycles and UFC and people enjoying themselves,

00:16:54.500 that's a terrible, terrible thing.

00:16:57.740 I don't think they understand.

00:16:59.380 that type of entertainment is the majority of what americans like it might not be like oh

00:17:07.400 that's my favorite thing but i think a lot of americans especially men real men not the ones

00:17:15.620 you see uh in front of uh ice facilities protesting men they like that stuff if you're

00:17:24.640 scrolling on social media and you see uh motorcycle jumps if you're a guy you're stopping

00:17:33.000 you're watching it oh man look at that that's what guys american men in this country like and

00:17:42.640 i would love to believe that they are still the majority of men in this country you you weed out

00:17:49.320 the big cities the pride events you got a bunch of guys left that enjoy watching that stuff 0.93

00:17:57.140 so to say that uh the country is disgusted with the events that have been going on at the white

00:18:04.720 house is uh again well this is what they do it's dishonest they lie about stuff like that 0.97

00:18:12.660 And I, quite frankly, do not give the slightest bit of crap about what they find appropriate or inappropriate. 0.85

00:18:23.840 Because for the past how many years now have we had to listen to them try to justify putting quite literally pornography in the classrooms, 1.00

00:18:35.780 bringing children to their transgender drag show events 1.00

00:18:43.920 where little kids are watching hairy man ass hanging out of chaps 0.99

00:18:49.580 and they're dancing around shaking it in front of children's faces 0.99

00:18:55.160 as the parents tell their kids to shove money down their G-strings

00:19:01.260 or chaps or whatever.

00:19:03.160 and i'm supposed to give them any any attention or credence in what they're saying when they say 0.74

00:19:10.800 that trump is being inappropriate get out of here knock it off please we're all disgusted

00:19:22.920 believe me joaquin from uh well yeah of course uh pennsylvania how are you sir

00:19:30.560 I almost said Phoenix.

00:19:45.620 By the way, it would really be defending myself.

00:19:48.740 I've been in situations where I had the tools on my person to defend myself,

00:19:55.420 and I've been in situations where I walked away with some damage.

00:19:59.800 but it wasn't a situation where i could have used uh those tools and you know we're looking at a

00:20:07.500 situation now i'll get into the uh carmelo anthony story in a little bit also but uh it's preposterous

00:20:14.040 and the people supporting this murderer uh based on nothing but the color of their skin

00:20:19.560 i i was going to say should be ashamed of their themselves but we've seen there's no shame there

00:20:25.820 no shame whatsoever in anything that goes on so uh what do you got joaquin okay you know what let's

00:20:34.580 go back to to president theodore roosevelt okay bully yes roosevelt had all kinds of pugilistic

00:20:41.520 events at the white house as a matter of fact i'm not sure if it's a west wing i think it's

00:20:46.520 a west wing that donald trump has been rebuilding to make it you know a thing where he could take

00:20:52.760 uh you know people in yeah the ballroom and make it look good whatever else teddy roosevelt actually

00:20:58.480 originally built that for that specific purpose yeah he would have people come in uh boxers of

00:21:05.380 the day would come in and box and spar with him he was a man's man you know a lot of people called

00:21:12.780 him kind of a socialist but um it was nothing like what they call socialism these days this guy

00:21:19.900 uh teddy roosevelt i've watched so many documentaries on this guy just an amazing man

00:21:25.980 an american man um the national parks he's directly responsible for how we look at and 0.92

00:21:32.960 preserve our national parks and uh you know he he was in some serious crap he went to war

00:21:39.960 he uh went into the wilderness and this is a real guy and that's what he decided his personality

00:21:48.020 to bring to the White House, some boxing.

00:21:51.480 And how could anyone say that a president shouldn't bring some of their personality,

00:21:56.700 what they enjoy, and share it with the people at the White House?

00:22:01.080 Exactly.

00:22:01.840 You know, Teddy Roosevelt, quite frankly, I got all my grandsons a book on Teddy Roosevelt

00:22:07.460 as a Christmas present.

00:22:09.860 Yeah.

00:22:10.200 That is one of the most amazing men.

00:22:12.220 He was friends with Batten Astersen and all these guys.

00:22:14.980 Yeah, old West guys, and a tragic life also.

00:22:19.860 Some horrific deaths that fell upon his loved ones,

00:22:25.680 and he pulled himself up and did what he needed to do.

00:22:30.740 Just an amazing guy.

00:22:32.980 Joaquin, I got a bail.

00:22:34.460 I got a break coming up, but always appreciate your phone call.

00:22:39.840 Yeah, I want to talk about the Knicks celebration.

00:22:43.700 we'll get into that uh you know it always starts off yeah look the people are in the streets

00:22:49.260 celebrating and then it turns into a catastrophe uh so we'll talk about that and a lot more when

00:23:13.100 ufc event at the white house a lot of people there and security very tight one of the um

00:23:20.100 people that were involved with the ufc uh a fighter sean strickland very controversial character

00:23:26.980 has his opinions on things and uh he has um had the finger wagged at him many times for what he

00:23:34.120 has to say uh he was told he would not be able to attend the ufc event at the white house well

00:23:41.460 Well, he got in wearing a disguise, and he was summarily mobbed by security and Secret Service, tossed into a police van, and removed from the event.

00:23:59.120 Holy jeez.

00:24:01.280 Yeah, that's, you know.

00:24:03.380 hey if you want to make yourself um an online celebrity get a little viral heat going i guess

00:26:16.760 you're standing up most of the time it's action-packed basketball bad

00:26:23.780 you know obviously if you come back from a giant deficit and win in the championship one of the

00:26:35.740 championship games uh with one second left on the clock all right i'll give you that that was

00:26:43.520 pretty impressive um but basketball as a sport i mean all right up and down the court

00:26:53.840 two points two points three points it the the most exciting

00:27:05.720 part of any sport is scoring a home run crack amazing a touchdown guys run he's just shedding

00:27:21.620 blockers right there just makes it in hockey oh my god the passing back and forth there he goes

00:27:31.680 Oh, he shoots, he scores.

00:27:34.320 Horn goes off.

00:27:36.680 Basketball.

00:27:37.620 Do, do, do, do, do, do.

00:27:38.620 Two points.

00:27:40.140 Do, do, do, do, do, do.

00:27:41.280 Two points.

00:27:42.420 Hey, we're at 30 to a 35.

00:27:47.100 Do, do, do, do, do, do.

00:27:48.540 I cannot find any excitement when they are constantly scoring

00:27:56.800 when scoring is the big part of the game.

00:28:00.920 that's what makes it exciting and then i get told oh anthony the last minute

00:28:09.980 of a basketball get the last 30 seconds oh then we get dunk dunk dunk foul foul shot foul shot

00:28:20.040 throw it in dunk dunk dunk dunk two points it's i can't i cannot i don't find it exciting

00:28:29.060 I know a lot of people are very excited about the Knicks.

00:28:34.400 They did win over the Spurs in five.

00:28:39.100 And when the game was finished, New Yorkers took to the streets of Manhattan

00:28:45.160 and they went absolutely bullcrap.

00:28:51.360 It's all nice at first. 0.92

00:28:53.200 I was watching a lot of live streams of people that had their phones going.

00:28:59.480 They were streaming on various social media platforms.

00:29:03.680 Nick Shirley, who, of course, he's the guy that uncovered a bunch of the fraud in Minneapolis 1.00

00:29:10.640 being perpetrated by Somalis with their daycare centers. 0.98

00:29:13.760 He was in Manhattan last night, so I was watching his stream.

00:29:18.380 And a lot of people were coming up to him.

00:29:21.500 nick i love your work great job and it it seemed like it was just a bunch of people

00:29:27.920 raising a fist in the air and going yeah nicks in five go nicks this is great

00:29:34.060 and i'm watching this going this just turns though it this stops because certain people 0.97

00:29:44.020 will get bored of just going yeah nicks in five whoo kick ass we did it and then they walk around 0.95

00:29:51.300 and they're like, hey, Nixon 5, let's burn something. 0.97

00:29:57.700 How about we just burn stuff?

00:30:00.640 Because, you know, Nixon 5, and then a bunch of people,

00:30:04.380 because it's a mob mentality at that point.

00:30:07.980 Mob mentality is just an amazing phenomenon. 1.00

00:30:11.300 It takes a couple of imbeciles to turn everyone around them into imbeciles. 1.00

00:30:21.300 I think the people that are susceptible to turning into those imbeciles 1.00

00:30:27.800 have some imbecilic thoughts and behaviors anyway, 1.00

00:30:34.580 but they aren't the ones ready to jump in and light a school bus on fire, 1.00

00:30:39.160 as we saw last night, a few school buses on fire.

00:30:43.700 But they're just looking, and if they see someone else do it,

00:30:48.300 they're the guy that goes, all right, I'll do it.

00:30:51.300 And we've known people like this our whole lives, haven't we?

00:30:55.680 Remember in high school, there'd be people that would bring an M-80 into the school

00:31:03.820 and you'd seek out the guy you knew was crazy enough to light it

00:31:10.560 and put it in one of the bathroom toilets.

00:31:13.860 And everyone knew who that guy was too.

00:31:16.080 and uh when they did something that was crazy it emboldened other people like oh he did it

00:31:24.820 that went well how about i just throw the m80 down the toilet now myself this is how mob mentality

00:31:31.720 works and we saw it in full play last night with this uh nick's um pandemonium that went on

00:31:38.620 um after after the the win last night so they're walking around they're having a good time and

00:31:45.440 And then before you know it, I'm checking out more live sites,

00:31:48.620 and I'm just seeing vandalism, arson, assaults, shooting.

00:31:55.680 How about that, New York?

00:31:57.480 A shooting.

00:31:58.380 I have a little list here.

00:31:59.440 Let's see.

00:32:01.000 Here's the latest update per the NYPD.

00:32:04.400 Midtown Manhattan descended into chaos after Game 5 of the Knicks-Spurs game.

00:32:10.700 Ten officers injured.

00:32:12.780 One punched in the face.

00:32:14.220 another struck with a glass bottle a shooting at 43rd and broadway wounded a 17 year old crowds

00:32:21.100 took over 43rd street so completely that no ambulance could reach the scene so mypd drove

00:32:28.160 the victim to the hospital officers recovered a firearm and took three people of interest into

00:32:34.540 custody you're interesting could i put some handcuffs on you what an interesting fellow

00:32:39.460 come with me four slashings and a partridge four slashings and stabbings crowds torched five

00:32:51.160 school buses five school buses that were uh shuttling fans from manhattan to metlife stadium

00:32:59.580 for the world cup so uh i i saw a lot of people wondering why the hell there were buses parked

00:33:07.040 in times square this is a logistical f-up of of just epic proportions how do you decide you're

00:33:18.760 going to store or uh have these buses there as shuttle buses for the world cup 0.98

00:33:25.180 during the knicks game when if they win you know damn well the crap's gonna hit the fan 0.98

00:33:36.080 and those buses are toast, no pun, toast. 0.99

00:33:42.880 Who thought?

00:33:44.160 Because we saw what happened.

00:33:46.800 Didn't we get a preview of this after the win at Madison Square Garden?

00:33:54.420 Didn't we get a preview?

00:33:57.840 But what are you going to do?

00:33:59.460 And the loss.

00:34:00.240 It was just any time the Knicks were playing, whether it was here

00:34:04.000 or in San Antonio, the fans went wild and started destroying stuff.

00:34:13.040 How do you then decide you're going to put five buses in Times Square

00:34:19.020 not thinking anything's going to happen?

00:34:23.000 And that's directly on Zoran Mamdani.

00:34:27.280 That's Zoran Mamdani.

00:34:30.640 They torched those buses.

00:34:32.480 five nypd vehicles were wrecked we saw a lot of video of people swinging baseball bats at the

00:34:38.960 cars jumping on roofs uh smashing all the the windows and and uh windshields of the vehicles

00:34:47.020 crowds destroyed multiple personal vehicles too people set off fireworks inside uh packed crowds

00:34:56.740 Of course, the usual climbing of light poles, destroying signs, traffic signals, scaffolding, brawling in the street.

00:35:07.500 They blocked the avenues for hours and refused to disperse.

00:35:11.840 Sixty-three arrests.

00:35:14.200 Charges include assault, a police officer, criminal possession of firearms, criminal mischief,

00:35:19.600 mischief, disorderly conduct, resisting arrest, and obstruction of governmental administration.

00:35:26.740 this is how New York celebrates their basketball team winning.

00:35:36.340 They get so worked up from two points

00:35:40.740 that they have to destroy everything in their wake.

00:35:46.400 But it is great to see that Zoram M. Danny,

00:35:49.540 the mayor of New York City,

00:35:52.160 he's taking this very seriously

00:35:54.600 by having a Knicks victory parade on Thursday in New York

00:36:02.760 down the Canyon of Heroes, a victory parade.

00:36:09.820 How do you do this?

00:36:13.780 How do you look at what has transpired over the course of this series,

00:36:18.320 these games, and what happened last night,

00:36:22.060 and decide we need to bring these people back into the city

00:36:27.580 and get them riled up, drunk, and destroy even more of the city.

00:36:36.260 Downtown, where Canyon of Heroes is, for a ticker tape parade.

00:36:42.420 They're going to allow this to happen.

00:36:44.380 And I don't see any, any capability of the mayor's office or the NYPD at this point.

00:36:55.440 I know some of the rank and file probably want to do their job.

00:36:59.720 They're not being allowed to do their job.

00:37:02.180 But the brass, the people that have to answer to Zoran Mamdani, do not have the ability to keep these crowds in check.

00:37:15.340 They are incapable of putting the police out on the streets where they need to be to do what they need to do and prevent the destruction we saw last night.

00:37:29.480 Nothing's perfect.

00:37:30.880 Nothing is 100%.

00:37:32.060 I know I've seen many New York City, some New York championships,

00:37:37.200 and things get out of hand, a car gets rolled over, it happens.

00:37:42.600 It's not good.

00:37:43.700 It shouldn't happen, but it does.

00:37:45.980 Nothing like what happened last night should happen.

00:37:50.560 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

00:37:56.500 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

00:38:02.060 It's the Anthony Comey Show.

00:38:04.380 Let's go to Matt in the Bronx.

00:38:06.040 He wants to talk about the violence at the Knicks celebration.

00:38:09.460 Matt, what's up, man?

00:38:11.700 Hey, Anthony.

00:38:13.580 Well, one thing I was keeping my fingers crossed,

00:38:16.660 that the Knicks violence didn't cross over into Sunday's, quote,

00:38:22.420 Puerto Rican Day Parade, unquote.

00:38:25.600 For people that don't live in New York City,

00:38:28.040 I'm going to talk about that very briefly.

00:38:29.620 Some people that live in New York and have to deal with that ethnic group. 1.00

00:38:33.700 I don't know what your image of Puerto Ricans is, but in sum and substance, they're basically the ghastly result of crossbreeding three things. 1.00

00:38:42.680 Caribbean Indians, blacks, and an especially low-grade of white trash. 1.00

00:38:47.480 And if you recall, 25 years ago in the city, you had the Puerto Rican Day parade where about 50 women were sexually assaulted. 1.00

00:38:56.500 It used to be called wilding, Matt.

00:38:58.700 Remember, Wilding?

00:39:00.800 Yeah, in Central Park.

00:39:03.200 Yes.

00:39:03.700 And the point I'm trying to make, the larger point I'm trying to make,

00:39:06.940 it's always the usual suspects, just like with the Knicks violence.

00:39:11.400 It's the usual suspects.

00:39:12.820 You're talking about, you know, I'm not going to be politically correct.

00:39:15.740 I'm going to come right on and say it. 1.00

00:39:17.200 Mainly blacks and Hispanics who cause most of the crime in big cities across this country. 1.00

00:39:22.580 They're only 13% and 19% respectively. 1.00

00:39:26.000 But again, they commit most of the murders, most of the shootings, most of the robberies, most of the assaults, most of the violent crime, the type of crime in which you're likely to lose your life.

00:39:37.800 Those are the people who are likely going to be pulling the trigger or stabbing the knife into your chest.

00:39:43.180 And again, nobody says anything.

00:39:46.200 It's directly correlated to our immigration policy.

00:39:49.700 Prior to 1965, mostly Europeans came to the United States.

00:39:54.900 Why is that important?

00:39:56.500 It's important because they're more likely to assimilate.

00:39:59.400 They're less likely to commit crime.

00:40:01.180 They're more likely to be employed, pay taxes, raise their own families, and earn their own keep.

00:40:07.620 And they're not likely to be dregs of society with intergenerational dysfunction costing the taxpayers an arm and a leg. 0.92

00:40:15.900 And, you know, so if you keep importing third-world people into the United States, you're going to bring third-world behavior into the United States. 0.90

00:40:24.600 because the nation is its people if the united states acquires a third world population it will 0.99

00:40:30.300 become a third world country and then no one will want to live here least of all the people from the

00:40:35.420 third world you know what matt uh many many times you'll hear uh these liberals and and democrats

00:40:41.320 and hollywood and whatnot and they'll be talking about how immigrants have contributed so much to

00:40:47.400 this country those immigrants are the ones you were just talking about the europeans the people

00:40:53.840 that came here many years ago when immigration was something that was a good thing for this

00:41:00.000 country it brought over some amazing people um and and they brought parts of their culture here

00:41:07.140 that actually contributed to the united states of america wasn't a detriment wasn't a burden

00:41:14.100 to the country it was their cultures you know i'm italian and i know italian people that came here

00:41:21.020 brought amazing architecture to this country and many other things, science.

00:41:27.880 There are some amazing Italian scientists, Enrico Fermi, that did amazing things.

00:41:35.460 That's what they're talking about, but they want to put that in the time frame of now,

00:41:40.200 that, oh, those amazing immigrants, well, what about the amazing immigrants we're getting today? 0.89

00:41:45.160 we're not we're getting third world immigrants that are nothing but a burden on every scale 0.99

00:41:52.640 financially the criminal justice system the public safety that's not the same thing they 0.72

00:41:59.980 always want to equate it with the success of immigration from many many years ago and

00:42:06.560 uh it's just not like that anymore matt of course not and it will continue to be the 0.76

00:42:14.720 the same cesspool that it is today unless we do something active and tangible and that is

00:42:21.960 overturning the 1965 immigration reform and control act otherwise otherwise known as the

00:42:29.040 hard seller act you have to tear down that legislation you had to build something else

00:42:34.020 that again encourages european immigration they're the people who are still the majority

00:42:39.340 a slim majority but still the majority of the population yeah and they're the ones who are most

00:42:45.800 likely to assimilate and contribute not become parasites right and criminals rioting in the

00:42:52.620 streets when a bad basketball team wins a championship or some of the nonsense remember

00:42:58.660 matt you remember the the the outrage when donald trump wanted to bring over those south african 0.96

00:43:05.680 farmers as actual refugees because they're being murdered in south africa they're a bunch of white

00:43:12.180 south africaners and they wanted to bring him uh he wants to bring him here less than 100 and there

00:43:17.940 was outrage oh these people he'll allow to come here but what about the people from somalia and

00:43:26.240 what about the people from pakistan and they're they're not allowed yeah how about just yeah

00:43:32.740 that's exactly what we're saying

00:43:35.940 unbelievable

00:43:38.940 Matt thanks I gotta move on

00:43:41.060 we're coming up on a

00:43:43.100 quick break

00:43:45.300 and we'll be back with

00:43:47.220 your calls of course

00:43:48.700 800-848-9222

00:43:51.180 and let's see what we got

00:43:53.460 Elon that's

00:43:54.600 I really want to talk about this

00:43:56.320 Elon Musk became a trillionaire

00:43:58.560 and the left

00:44:01.180 is losing their minds like he is the worst guy he's sleeping with a trillion dollars tucked

00:44:09.680 into his mattress holding it back from everyone else that's what elon musk is doing we'll try to

00:44:17.640 straighten it out when we return so don't go anywhere we'll be right back it's the anthony

00:44:23.540 A lot of sports, a lot of big championships, the World Cup now.

00:44:32.140 Of course, the Knicks winning last night.

00:44:34.900 You want to make that game a little more interesting for yourself, don't you?

00:44:40.240 Well, FanDuel predicts.

00:44:42.300 That's going to help you out.

00:44:44.000 I know it helped me out.

00:44:44.920 I was watching the Germany-Curisau game today, World Cup game.

00:44:50.980 Germany just trounced.

00:44:52.280 They goose-stepped all over Curaçao, 7-1.

00:44:56.500 And look, if you add a little money on Germany, you're feeling pretty good right now.

00:45:02.660 And you watched that game and just had a blast.

00:45:07.320 Yeah, you were in it.

00:45:09.260 You had a stake in the game.

00:45:11.340 I didn't even know Curaçao did anything except make that blue liqueur, but I digress.

00:45:18.140 Yeah, we're talking about FanDuel Predicts.

00:45:20.620 It's a prediction market.

00:45:22.280 and that means you bet on anything whatever's going on that's the beauty of it the price moves

00:45:27.600 based on what everyone else is thinking if a bunch of people think something's going to happen

00:45:31.960 then you might not make as much money off of it if you do win if a few people think it's going to

00:45:37.880 happen and you jump in there and it does happen there you go economics what the price of gold

00:45:42.840 you can bet on that and then with the world cup you could bet on that or you could just bet on

00:45:47.320 how many goals are scored who scored him how many penalties uh that's what's great about

00:45:54.080 FanDuel predicts it's not just betting on the game and it gives you like I said a stake in the game

00:46:00.820 you're uh much more interested like I couldn't care about the Knicks game but if I would have

00:46:08.240 had a little wager on it of course I'm watching I'm jumping up and down I'm burning school buses

00:46:14.400 maybe how many school buses were going to be burned in times square i said four if i would

00:46:20.560 have picked five i would have won i don't think you could have done that i don't want to get

00:46:25.840 anybody in trouble but uh fando predicts uh it's one of those uh it's one of those feelings you get

00:46:35.720 when you're watching a game and you have a little money on it or anything like i said the price of

00:46:41.620 gold and you actually win yay for me money in my account gotta love it fandle predicts offered by

00:49:06.960 them apart for it this has been a bone of contention with those idiots since it was announced 1.00

00:49:12.920 and what is the problem and like i said earlier in the show especially when they have degraded 1.00

00:49:20.760 the white house with their uh uh sexual degeneracy that they had every pride month 0.68

00:49:28.700 and then for christmas they had the same thing it's that's disgusting this is something america 0.97

00:49:35.340 enjoys and wants to see uh yeah yeah that's right i was thinking about biden's little gatherings

00:49:57.420 No, no.

00:49:58.240 And we got the 250th anniversary of this country, the 250th birthday on the 4th of July is coming up.

00:50:07.560 All these things that are very patriotic, very pro-America, and the left cannot crap on it enough. 0.78

00:50:15.420 They hate it. 0.98

00:50:16.620 They hate America.

00:50:17.600 They hate all our traditions, everything that made us great, everything that brought us together so we could say we were Americans.

00:50:25.620 And that wasn't just a line on a map, a border on a map.

00:50:29.040 And they they hate it.

00:50:31.180 They don't like us being united as America, as Americans enjoying being Americans.

00:50:38.960 They hate it.

00:50:40.320 Yeah, I feel like tonight is a continuation of history being written by the citizens.

00:50:46.840 you know you're right and they're hating every minute of it well too bad for them and i love

00:50:52.460 what i'm watching and i think you'll watch it when you go home or you know when you can yeah

00:50:57.140 you'll enjoy it i know you will i'll check it out thank you sondra i appreciate uh your call

00:51:03.820 there you go see these are things people enjoy there's a crowd of people there it's not a few

00:51:11.080 transgender people and gays and they're waving their flag around this is packed people enjoy

00:51:18.840 this stuff uh and believe me mainstream media will try to lead you to believe that they don't 0.99

00:51:25.600 and this is something that's terrible and it degrades uh the sanctity of the white house

00:51:31.280 and all that stuff it's not true mainstream media lies that's all they do and uh you know

00:51:39.020 sometimes it's discouraging to uh to listen to it and you might think oh am i wrong am i the one

00:51:46.320 that's not seeing things for what they are nope if you hear it from mainstream media it is bs

00:51:53.680 absolutely uh i was talking uh earlier in the show also i brought up elon elon musk trillionaire

00:52:03.420 that is insane

00:52:05.500 I used to think Jed Clampett

00:52:07.560 was very very wealthy

00:52:09.500 Elon puts Jed Clampett

00:52:12.120 from the Beverly Hillbillies

00:52:14.000 to shame

00:52:14.960 oh my god he had like a hundred million dollars

00:52:18.340 something like that

00:52:19.900 1960s money

00:52:22.020 but apparently

00:52:23.600 some oil

00:52:25.500 was in his ground

00:52:27.600 but I go off

00:52:29.460 so Elon Musk

00:52:31.580 trillionaire

00:52:32.740 he uh opened up spacex which is now a publicly traded company from a private company that

00:52:42.300 he uh built he's done this with a couple of companies that's how he made his initial fortune

00:52:50.660 a lot of people don't know the history behind elon he he's been um a tech entrepreneur for

00:52:58.200 many years and he's built companies sold them use the profit to build more companies sell them off

00:53:05.960 use the profit to make the companies he has now and um he has now a a worth of uh a little over

00:53:16.660 one trillion dollars the first trillionaire on earth is elon musk and uh i think it's amazing

00:53:27.260 the usual suspects on the left will tell you this is the worst thing to ever happen

00:53:35.120 they will tell you uh you shouldn't be excited or psyched for this i'm not excited or psyched

00:53:42.340 that elon musk has a trillion dollars this is what they don't seem to understand i'm excited

00:53:49.040 and psyched that there is somebody who is willing to look at some of these industries

00:54:00.200 like space travel and electric vehicles and high-speed Internet and do something a little

00:54:09.860 different and have big dreams and make them happen.

00:54:15.760 Steve Jobs was a guy like this, too.

00:54:19.040 He did things that people say, well, no, that could never happen.

00:54:23.000 And he said, how about you go screw off and I'm going to make this happen.

00:54:28.660 And it's exciting to have somebody like that alive and doing what he does during your life.

00:54:38.100 Nikola Tesla always comes to mind when I think of people like that, how exciting it is to to be alive during a time when somebody who

00:54:48.360 influences the world and changes the world and you were there to see it as it happened you could

00:54:57.360 read it in history books like nikola tesla you know you read that in history books but you were

00:55:03.060 around for steve jobs you were around for elon musk and that's an amazing thing watching history

00:55:09.900 happen history that will be in the books these people will be remembered forever for their 0.99

00:55:16.260 contributions to humanity and that is something these bastards cannot get through their heads 0.99

00:55:25.080 either that or they are so good at lying they have an agenda that they want to get across 0.99

00:55:32.660 and they will lie about every single thing that isn't part of that agenda so if they know Elon

00:55:40.480 musk is amazing and everything he's done is amazing they cannot admit it they have to go

00:55:47.220 into a a quiet soundproof room and talk about it so no one hears them saying uh the truth that this

00:55:56.160 guy is astounding has done has done so much for the entire world we'll get into that um when we

00:56:04.440 come back and of course liz warren we'll hear from liz warren because she's a little upset

00:56:09.680 with Elon for hoarding so much money 0.89

00:56:13.140 like Darkwing Duck or what was his name?

00:56:16.860 The guy with all the money in that whole duck thing.

00:56:22.980 Scrooge McDuck?

00:56:24.520 Is that his name?

00:56:25.560 I don't know.

00:56:26.400 All right, back in moments.

00:56:27.680 Don't go anywhere.

00:56:28.880 It's the Anthony Cumia Show

00:56:30.860 on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

00:56:34.260 It's the Anthony Cumia Show

00:56:36.580 on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

00:56:39.680 The Anthony Cumia Show and talking about Elon Musk becoming the first trillionaire on the planet and what he's done and the guff, if I may use such harsh language, the guff that the Democrats and the left, the usual suspects, Hollywood, are giving him for having acquired so much wealth.

00:57:04.540 First of all, I don't think they understand what that means, or again, they're lying, but when they lie, they influence the dummies in this country, the left-wing followers, the cult members, and they get them to believe it.

00:57:23.400 And I honestly think that people believe Elon Musk has $1 trillion, all printed up, all stacked up like a movie, in warehouses, and every so often he goes there and he lifts the big garage door and he goes, mwah, and looks at it.

00:57:47.620 That isn't how it works.

00:57:50.560 Elon has many very successful companies.

00:57:55.740 Elon made SpaceX public, a publicly traded company.

00:58:01.800 He had an initial public offering for stock.

00:58:06.540 And that's what put him over the trillion dollar mark because he is a majority shareholder in SpaceX.

00:58:14.740 So the stock price goes up.

00:58:18.200 It's brand new.

00:58:18.880 it's a brand new stock and they just don't understand that it's equity in the company

00:58:27.420 this is a company that did the impossible when i was growing up nasa was the only thing the only

00:58:41.140 entity that could put things and people in space and it was fascinating i loved everything to do

00:58:50.180 with the space programs of yesteryear i still love what's going on especially with the elon

00:58:57.180 at the helm of spacex and uh it's fascinating the the technology for um autonomous vehicles

00:59:06.920 there doesn't have to be a person in there and and the ships pretty much fly themselves now

00:59:12.960 they'll put astronauts in one of these uh dragon capsules to go up to the space station but they're

00:59:19.620 really passengers it's like one of those cabs down in austin that um what is it the waymo cabs that

00:59:27.500 just drive themselves that's pretty much what he has made space travel now they get in everything

00:59:35.100 from the launch to the docking at the space station is all autonomous.

00:59:40.780 And that in and of itself is fascinating.

00:59:43.180 And then when you think it's happening in space, Tesla, you look at Tesla,

00:59:50.400 this is what the left was screaming about for decade upon decade.

00:59:58.420 Fossil fuel is poison.

01:00:01.240 Climate change, global warming, global cooling.

01:00:05.100 and this guy comes up with the first really viable consumer electric vehicle,

01:00:13.540 and that went through the same growing pains as any other company,

01:00:17.560 as any other product.

01:00:18.960 I hate those first few Teslas.

01:00:21.900 There are still some Uber drivers that insist on using them.

01:00:26.000 You sit in the back seat of that thing.

01:00:27.680 You are being rattled.

01:00:28.700 Your teeth are falling out.

01:00:30.880 No suspension.

01:00:31.800 The back seat was like sitting on plywood.

01:00:33.960 But now, these things are genuine, good vehicles that people seem to enjoy having.

01:00:43.560 The technology in them is not just that they're electric-powered, but reclaiming energy through braking.

01:00:53.040 There's so many amazing scientific breakthroughs that have come from Tesla.

01:01:00.580 breakthroughs that are being used in other industries helping mankind absolutely making

01:01:09.500 life better for earth the planet um starlink this is amazing starlink internet high speed

01:01:23.060 internet access for the earth a little let me fill you in on what other people what the competition

01:01:32.140 was trying to do when we talk about something like elon musk and uh starlink um under the

01:01:40.700 biden administration they came up with a plan to get high-speed internet access to the rural

01:01:48.580 areas of the country you get there some places in the midwest and the rocky mountains that they

01:01:54.060 just don't have high-speed internet and uh the biden administration was given the task of of

01:02:01.200 doing that and joe biden gave the mission to one of his best soldiers camilla harris was given that

01:02:11.480 task and uh not only given the task but given billions of dollars to give internet access

01:02:20.160 high-speed internet access to rural areas of the united states do you know when they left office

01:02:28.100 not one home was wired with high-speed internet from this program not one business

01:02:39.120 not one house

01:02:41.640 billions of dollars 0.95

01:02:45.060 Kamala Harris at the helm

01:02:47.340 not one

01:02:49.040 Elon Musk and Starlink

01:02:52.820 if you drop out of a plane

01:02:56.700 in the middle of the Sahara Desert

01:02:59.740 you can have high speed internet access

01:03:03.100 with Starlink

01:03:05.140 it sounds like a commercial

01:03:06.420 it's not

01:03:07.100 It's just the fact that it's so amazing, and billions of our tax dollars were wasted with the government trying to do this same thing, trying to do the same exact thing, and they couldn't do it.

01:03:22.980 We're seeing, I love watching these.

01:03:25.720 There's people, young people that are deciding they are going to row a boat across the Atlantic

01:03:32.240 or take a sailboat, a little one-person sailboat, and sail from California to Hawaii.

01:03:39.780 And you see every day they let people know what's going on from the middle of the ocean

01:03:47.360 because they have Starlink on their boat.

01:03:49.760 they have uh elon also has um these neural links that he's working on it sounds a little dystopian

01:04:00.560 and a little scary because no one wants a a computer chip or any kind of thing put in their

01:04:06.760 head but these things that they're working on to give blind people the ability to see

01:04:13.940 through Neuralinks, deaf people the ability to hear.

01:04:19.940 This is a guy that is taking some of the most outrageous concepts 0.95

01:04:25.560 that were science fiction a few years ago

01:04:29.880 and actually bringing them to life.

01:04:33.800 These things are coming to fruition.

01:04:36.700 And what does the left say?

01:04:39.780 What do the Democrats say?

01:04:41.040 What does Liz Warren have to say?

01:04:44.600 We'll listen to Liz's take on the guy that I just briefly, barely scratched the surface describing some of the things he's done for the world.

01:04:57.140 Because they cannot face that this guy doesn't agree with them.

01:05:03.760 He does not have the same agenda as the left.

01:05:11.040 and they crucify him about taxes.

01:05:16.980 That's the big thing.

01:05:19.160 Hey, the rich, he's a trillionaire.

01:05:21.740 Do you know if he gave 5% of his money to this, that, or the other thing,

01:05:27.380 we could stop hunger.

01:05:29.180 We could educate everybody.

01:05:30.940 We could do this.

01:05:32.540 No, you can't.

01:05:34.200 You know why?

01:05:35.940 You would throw the money away,

01:05:38.140 like the billions of dollars that was supposed to get high-speed Internet access to rural America.

01:05:44.500 If only he gave this much money to what?

01:05:47.840 The government as taxes to be wasted and stuffed in pockets

01:05:53.880 and thrown away where no one even knows where it went.

01:05:58.800 That's what the likes of Liz Warren and Bernie Sanders wants to happen to his money

01:06:05.480 instead of it staying within his companies and under his power

01:06:10.940 so if he gets another idea, he can make that happen?

01:06:17.080 You're telling a brilliant man who has amazing ways of seeing the future

01:06:25.780 and he can make these things happen and you're saying he needs to give his money away

01:06:31.860 because he's not doing enough?

01:06:33.320 this pisses me off when we come back we'll listen to liz warren talk about uh elon musk stick around

01:06:42.480 it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple podcast network

01:06:47.880 it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple podcast network

01:06:53.780 i was out earlier in greenville watching the uh germany curacao match of the world cup

01:07:02.660 soccer i'm not a big soccer fan but you know this time of year the world cup you gotta you gotta

01:07:08.720 check out a couple of games and um it was uh 7-1 7-1 germany and eric from orlando has a take on it

01:07:19.640 i gather eric what's up man hey anthony well i was in my living room with all my german flags

01:07:25.560 surrounding me because germany has always been my team and it was pretty much like a repeat of

01:07:31.240 2014 when they were whooping 0.99

01:07:33.500 Brazil's ass and their own 1.00

01:07:35.420 turf. Right. The only problem 1.00

01:07:37.300 was Germany actually got

01:07:39.120 five goals in 28 minutes.

01:07:41.480 It was crazy. They just kept scoring.

01:07:43.600 Yeah, and soccer's not like that.

01:07:45.440 You sit around a lot of times and you don't

01:07:47.320 watch anything being scored until the end of the game.

01:07:49.520 It's crazy.

01:07:51.020 That and I actually won 500 bucks

01:07:53.000 and then I called one of my Brazilian friends

01:07:55.200 and every time a goal came on

01:07:57.240 or when Germany scored a goal, I played

01:07:59.160 that clip from uh denaro from king of comedy with the when he's laughing saying that's terrific

01:08:04.040 over and over that's terrific yeah yeah yeah it was uh an interesting game and then uh i was

01:08:11.480 watching uh it was japan and the netherlands and uh i don't know the netherlands didn't look like

01:08:17.600 netherlanders uh japan looked like japanese people but uh netherlands i don't know i don't

01:08:25.760 Unless they're getting a lot of sun in the Netherlands these days.

01:08:29.800 All right, thanks, Eric.

01:08:31.340 Thanks for the call.

01:08:32.480 A little soccer talk.

01:08:35.460 I'm not a big soccer fan, but like I said, it's World Cup.

01:08:40.420 You've got to check out a few games.

01:08:42.900 We were talking about Elon Musk becoming a trillionaire,

01:08:46.320 and the left just can't stop bashing this guy.

01:08:50.400 I need to let you people know what Elon Musk, not only what he does as far as innovating

01:09:01.680 and these companies that he's been doing things that were impossible just a few years ago

01:09:09.440 and now it's commonplace.

01:09:11.340 uh i wanted to know what elon musk all the companies that he has tesla and spacex and

01:09:21.040 starlink and boring company out there in vegas and uh noralink and there's so many companies

01:09:27.980 that this guy has and he employs a lot of people and the left is constantly bitching that he has

01:09:36.700 to pay his fair share what's your fair share elon musk do you know elon last year paid less taxes

01:09:44.640 than a teacher or a police officer do you understand how that works too i don't think they do

01:09:54.080 when you have companies multi-gazillion dollar companies a trillion dollars worth of companies

01:10:02.860 Now, you don't fill out your H&R Block tax form and go, I made $1 trillion.

01:10:15.080 Taxable income, $1 trillion.

01:10:19.860 I think they believe this.

01:10:21.840 And at the end, you're supposed to pay, you know, 50% of $1 trillion.

01:10:28.300 I wrote out my check for $500 billion to U.S. Treasury.

01:10:36.320 It doesn't work that way.

01:10:39.500 Elon Musk's personal taxes that he pays is based on how much he pays himself.

01:10:50.700 from what we know of elon musk does it look like he's a guy that lives a lavish lifestyle

01:10:58.460 does he look like a guy that's out with hollywood celebrities and driving uh uh bentley's and and

01:11:08.460 no private jets everywhere where's elon this week oh he's in uh uh pali oh he's in montenegro at a

01:11:18.920 casino it he lives the the most normal guy lifestyle he likes staying home and playing

01:11:28.700 video games i could appreciate that and when you do that you pay yourself a salary he could

01:11:36.980 literally i don't know what it is but he could quite literally say i make two hundred thousand

01:11:43.240 dollars a year that's how much i make he just needs to pay taxes on that and then he's got

01:11:49.840 his deductions you know his t-shirts his sneakers his blue jeans that's it so when they say he pays

01:12:02.000 less taxes than a nurse yeah on his personal income tax now the corporate taxes

01:12:11.640 those pay more than anyone in history has ever paid in taxes

01:12:20.500 elon musk his companies more taxes than anyone in history has ever paid

01:12:29.200 in taxes in this country and they just want more blood

01:12:34.980 they want more blood and not only that here's a very interesting thing that

01:12:40.340 a lot of people especially on the left don't ever consider um with all the companies

01:12:49.220 that elon has what's the approximate tax revenue generated by all of his employees

01:12:56.680 they're paying taxes he pays them they pay taxes so not only his taxes his corporate taxes

01:13:07.100 But every one of his employees, the number is roughly, and it's a pretty big gap here, but $10 to $20 billion a year.

01:13:25.540 That is his employees paying their taxes.

01:13:30.360 If there wasn't SpaceX, Tesla, Starlink, these people would have jobs, I guess, but maybe, maybe they wouldn't.

01:13:46.120 His company's employees are generating $10 to $20 billion for the government. 1.00

01:13:53.820 And he's just, what a piece of garbage he is. 0.99

01:13:57.380 Where's his fair share? 1.00

01:13:58.920 share they always talk about the fair share here's liz warren this is a ac2 here she is of course

01:14:08.900 she's got to open her yap about this she's got to have her hand in everyone's pocket she's got to 0.99

01:14:16.280 know what everyone's making and how they're making it uh how did she make multi-million uh dollars on

01:14:24.560 a uh on on her salary huh what's she been doing but elon he's the problem so here's liz warren

01:14:35.640 talking about uh elon becoming a trillionaire elon musk is officially the world's first

01:14:43.100 trillionaire think about that we're living in a time when more and more people are just hanging

01:14:48.360 on by their fingernails to survive in this economy. And Elon Musk has more money and more

01:14:55.000 wealth than anyone in human history. I want to be clear. This is not just some fluke. It is a feature

01:15:03.560 of a rigged economy. Donald Trump's big, beautiful bill cut health care for millions of Americans

01:15:09.980 to give guys like Elon bigger tax breaks. The tax code rewards CEOs for firing workers

01:15:18.000 and replacing them with AI.

01:15:20.660 Loopholes have allowed Jeff Bezos to pay an effective tax rate

01:15:24.520 lower than a Boston public school teacher.

01:15:27.780 And we are left with a country where a handful of billionaires at the top

01:15:32.000 pop champagne in their $300 million yachts

01:15:36.600 while working people take on even more shifts

01:15:39.320 to try to pay off their student loan debt.

01:15:41.960 The top 1% of U.S. earners now have more wealth

01:15:46.160 than the entire middle class.

01:15:48.900 How much are they paying the top 1%? 1.00

01:15:51.420 We need a wealth tax.

01:15:52.800 And it's about time that corporations paid their fair share.

01:15:57.660 Fair share.

01:15:58.380 Today's marker should be a wake-up call that enough is enough.

01:16:03.520 Time to make change.

01:16:06.120 Ugh. 1.00

01:16:07.320 Shut up. 1.00

01:16:08.840 That's all I have to say to her. 1.00

01:16:10.580 Shut up. 1.00

01:16:12.720 Ugh. 1.00

01:16:14.680 Imagine.

01:16:16.160 If you tax wealthy business owners, successful even, like Elon,

01:16:25.560 and you want to tax him more,

01:16:28.340 they will take whatever you taxed and fire some of their employees.

01:16:35.580 How about that?

01:16:36.520 How about those people that are giving $20 to $30 billion a year

01:16:41.060 into the tax revenue.

01:16:46.620 How about they're gone now?

01:16:50.240 And Elon is still paying what he paid.

01:16:53.140 But now those people are out of work

01:16:55.520 because that's how it works.

01:16:58.320 That's how it has to work

01:16:59.780 in order to keep the business running

01:17:01.620 at the level it's running.

01:17:03.960 You can't tax companies

01:17:07.360 without them offsetting the cost of the tax

01:17:10.680 by firing people, cutting down on benefits, whatever it may be,

01:17:15.860 putting out a more inferior product that the people now have to pay more money for

01:17:24.720 and deal with a product that isn't as good as it was.

01:17:28.900 That's what they think the good thing to do is.

01:17:32.880 Instead of not being mad at Elon Musk for being a trillionaire,

01:17:37.900 and why do you think he's a trillionaire?

01:17:39.520 loopholes tricks pulling uh something behind everyone's back or is he running companies

01:17:48.240 that people are are very happy with and the company's very successful tesla it's a very

01:17:57.940 successful car company i believe it's the most successful car company in the country right now

01:18:03.820 more than Ford, Chevy, Dodge, all of them.

01:18:09.580 And the amount of people that are employed,

01:18:13.440 the amount of people that are happy with the product,

01:18:16.480 the innovation, again, the kind of peripheral things

01:18:21.340 that the world gets from having successful tech companies like this.

01:18:28.840 There's no money amount.

01:18:32.600 There's no price you could put on that.

01:18:37.160 But, you know, it must be what you call them, loopholes.

01:18:42.960 You make the laws. 1.00

01:18:47.340 Does this idiot and her cronies understand you're the ones that make the tax laws? 1.00

01:18:55.240 if if Elon Musk was doing anything illegal with his taxes you know damn well these people would 1.00

01:19:05.860 have thrown him in prison they never say he's doing something illegal they say he should pay

01:19:13.800 his fair share they make the laws they've made the laws forever they've been talking about this

01:19:20.680 for years they've been in control of the presidency the house and the senate why haven't

01:19:28.620 they changed the laws to eliminate these tax loopholes for the rich huh wow that's some

01:19:36.260 question could it be that their donors and their cronies and everyone else doesn't want them to

01:19:45.040 change the tax system and how it works and how the loopholes are available to hold as much money

01:19:53.080 as they can and i'm not saying that like it's a bad thing like i said rich companies do amazing

01:20:00.580 things for people sure there's greed and uh you know people that should have uh more money should

01:20:10.240 be getting paid more money and the uh management is greedy and they take them i know that happens

01:20:17.700 of course but for the most part these companies are making a lot of money and they're putting

01:20:23.660 their money back into the companies you think it's cheap to launch a rocket to to a space station

01:20:31.520 and bring stuff up there people supplies you think it's cheap to design a spaceship

01:20:38.860 to go to mars that costs money oh we don't need to go to mars there are people starving here 1.00

01:20:48.920 oh we don't need to go to the space station we don't need to do this again short-sighted idiots 1.00

01:20:55.540 that don't understand how much technology comes out of the these uh programs like the 0.99

01:21:04.800 musk's uh space program and helps us right down here on earth so many things we use and have used

01:21:14.820 for years decades were directly because of the space program and nasa at first and then with

01:21:25.540 private companies jumping on that whole thing and elon musk with the spacex

01:21:31.980 all this technology that's being used to put rockets in space

01:21:36.780 is being used in so many aspects of our lives down here,

01:21:41.740 but tax them, tax them to death.

01:21:46.800 Why?

01:21:48.060 So we could shell more money out to people that don't deserve it, 0.95

01:21:51.920 so we could send more of it overseas to countries that can't stand us, 1.00

01:21:56.980 so we could import third-worlders to commit fraud in our cities. 1.00

01:22:04.880 For that, I don't trust them with a dime, 1.00

01:22:10.020 never mind billions of Elon Musk's dollars.

01:22:13.620 I'd rather have him keep the money and do what he's doing

01:22:17.600 because it seems to be helping Americans and the world indirectly.

01:22:23.060 uh so i i i don't know what the likes of liz warren and bernie sanders and company want out

01:22:33.100 of someone like elon musk they don't understand how much of an asset he's been to uh to this

01:22:40.940 country unbelievable richie bronx what's up man richie good evening anthony what's happening

01:22:49.880 A few weeks ago, you described the Tesla as being a viable electronic vehicle.

01:22:58.700 Yeah.

01:22:59.440 I would like to ask how long it takes to recharge a Tesla from empty to full.

01:23:07.820 It depends on what type of charger you're using.

01:23:10.680 A household charger on 110 isn't going to be as good as one of the chargers that are specifically meant for a Tesla.

01:23:18.580 and 220 uh it's just it's part of the electric vehicle what are you laughing at i'm not laughing

01:23:27.460 if i oh you sound like you were laughing at me um the batteries are obviously the big sticky

01:23:33.980 wicket in electric vehicles always have it in electric everything and the batteries just in

01:23:39.620 the time that tesla's been around have gotten so much better than they used to be and they'll

01:23:45.700 continue to get better it's not perfect but as far as electric vehicles go tesla's number one by

01:23:52.520 far over any other car company well i would say that until it takes only a few minutes like as

01:24:04.240 like as long as it takes a gasoline car to fill up until it takes that amount of time to

01:24:10.960 recharge an electric vehicle from empty to full yeah no electric vehicle and no electric vehicle

01:24:19.140 will be viable well it's viable to people that can take time to charge their vehicle some people

01:24:26.100 it doesn't matter to them they could drive around within the limits of the charge get back home

01:24:32.160 plug it back in and they're good to drive to work drive to the store again so in those cases yes

01:24:38.080 If you're driving cross country, if it's a truck having to haul heavy stuff over great distances, yeah, then they have to still work on that.

01:24:49.160 But they are working on it.

01:24:50.980 Every car they sell is another car out there to help them learn what needs to be done to make it better.

01:24:59.800 That's because it's such new innovation.

01:25:03.220 Hey, airplanes were the same thing.

01:25:05.040 When airplanes were first around, you had to stop five, six times before you could cross the country to refuel.

01:25:13.920 You couldn't fly through weather.

01:25:17.900 It's the more you use these things, the more they're built and incorporated into our daily lives, the better they get.

01:25:27.560 And I think Elon has done a great job with technology like Steve Jobs had done with the iPhone.

01:25:35.040 thank you richie he goes richie did i sound paranoid i thought he was laughing at me are

01:25:41.380 you laughing you're laughing at me they'll all laugh at you don't go anywhere we'll be right

01:25:48.100 back it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple podcast network it's the anthony cumia show on the

01:25:57.180 red apple podcast network hey love him or hate him i know there are people that can't stand this guy

01:26:03.040 There are people that say he didn't do anything.

01:26:05.240 He fell into that.

01:26:06.680 You don't fall into a trillion dollars.

01:26:08.860 I'll tell you that right now.

01:26:10.540 There are some BS artists that can work up a few million dollars, even hundred millions of dollars.

01:26:20.400 You don't you don't make a trillion dollars by BSing and go, oh, boy, I hope hope they don't catch on to me that I'm just kind of walking around.

01:26:31.640 I don't know what I'm doing.

01:26:32.380 I'm not this guy is the genuine article let's be real CNN had a bit of an issue thank God for

01:26:41.620 Scott Jennings I love Scott Jennings over there at CNN the one voice of reason they put him in 1.00

01:26:47.220 the snake pit with these imbeciles idiots morons and he's the only one that speaks back to them 1.00

01:26:56.220 out of their bubble and uh gives them a little common sense a little knowledge so cnn was melting 1.00

01:27:04.780 down of course over elon's trillion dollars um and scott jennings uh set him straight it's a pretty

01:27:12.200 fun clip ac3 there'd be some checks and balances in this society people should not be allowed to

01:27:17.960 we have a trillion dollars allowed me that these ultra wealthy people i'm not talking about people

01:27:27.860 with 10 15 20 even 100 million dollars i'm talking about people who are approaching a trillion

01:27:34.120 dollars do you think that there's more that they should be doing to give back to the societies

01:27:39.600 that helped them get rich elon musk and spacex benefited from tens of millions of dollars in

01:27:47.240 government contracts and deals that allowed them to become the company that they are today?

01:27:51.380 Should they be doing?

01:27:52.280 Bakari, can I?

01:27:53.160 Yeah, go ahead.

01:27:53.580 I'm sorry.

01:27:54.580 Scott, do you think that they should be doing more?

01:27:57.080 I think it's up to them.

01:27:58.300 I think that many of them, and Arthur mentioned one, they do a lot.

01:28:01.520 But it's not for me or you or any of us here to tell someone else what to do with what they

01:28:07.420 earned and what they killed.

01:28:08.740 Yep.

01:28:08.860 And it's called taxes.

01:28:10.460 Yeah, I know.

01:28:10.940 And the rich people in this country pay the vast majority of taxes.

01:28:14.360 And I hear people today saying, oh, it's time that we tax the rich.

01:28:17.240 Folks, I got news for you. We already taxed the rich. They paid the vast majority. And I think Elon Musk is the single largest taxpayer in America. And he'll be even bigger now. But is it for us to sit around and say there's a limit on what you can build? There's a limit on what you can earn. And it's now my job to tell you what to do with your money. Hell no.

01:28:34.420 hell no exactly and and the the government subsidies that elon has gotten for his companies

01:28:45.420 what do they think that the government's a bank we're not a bank jerry uh they're not a bank it's

01:28:54.740 what do you think they're getting out of it they give elon subsidies for these companies because

01:29:02.320 They're betting that Elon can build a company that can make money

01:29:08.900 and hire people to pay taxes.

01:29:12.780 They're not just doing that out of the kindness of their heart,

01:29:17.720 the United States government.

01:29:20.140 Oh, let's give him some money so he could build this up.

01:29:23.240 Oh, let's give him a tax break so he could build this.

01:29:26.460 Why? Well, he seems nice.

01:29:27.900 they're betting on him being successful which he has been and they make that money back

01:29:36.860 in taxes and other things like i said that elon has given to the world but they just don't seem

01:29:45.740 to understand that no one how do we allow someone to make a trillion dollars no one needs a trillion

01:29:54.340 dollars how about you go screw who are they to say what anyone needs and what they should be

01:30:03.020 allowed to have and what uh the other thing they said what he should be doing with that money

01:30:10.320 what who the hell are you to tell him or anyone else what they should be doing with that money

01:30:19.160 He has done, I've said it before, he's done amazing things with his companies.

01:30:24.400 They don't ever take that into consideration.

01:30:27.820 They look at it like he's a cash cow.

01:30:31.100 What he should be doing, do you know how many people have internet access,

01:30:37.360 which is life or death in a lot of countries in Africa,

01:30:41.620 which have no internet over there?

01:30:44.460 I mean, unless you're in the city in Nigeria, perhaps.

01:30:49.160 But there are a lot of places that don't have Internet access,

01:30:52.200 so they don't have any communication with the outside world.

01:30:57.280 And because he's not giving money, he's not giving back.

01:31:02.760 The question, don't you think he should give back?

01:31:06.860 He's not.

01:31:08.720 He's giving people amazing innovation, amazing things.

01:31:14.200 But the only thing they see is money.

01:31:17.220 where's your cash fork it over give me your wallet they're robbing you this is what they do

01:31:25.060 run your pockets elon run your pockets and that's where we are with these people 1.00

01:31:32.540 like i said before they're either lying or they're morons there isn't another choice there 1.00

01:31:41.080 They are one or both of those two things. 1.00

01:31:46.400 Liars that they don't want to say the truth about Elon or morons and they can't see this guy has done more for the world in this century than I believe anyone else. 1.00

01:31:57.280 Back in a minute. 0.99

01:31:58.720 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:32:04.320 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:32:08.920 the anthony cumia show thanks for popping in with us on this sunday evening hope you're having a

01:32:16.680 great tail end of your weekend and uh you know gotta bring up uh jimmy kimmel also in this

01:32:24.860 elon musk thing because he uh he got on his show no one would know this from watching the show

01:32:32.400 all these late night shows it's just clips people find the clips they play the clips

01:32:38.400 and that's the only way anyone sees what they're doing i guarantee you no one is watching

01:32:46.520 no one is watching these shows maybe a few old you know hoarders they're in a house full of

01:32:55.360 newspaper and garbage and dead cats and they're watching an old black and white zenith television

01:33:01.120 somehow even in the digital age it's getting snow it's all fuzzy uh that's the only people i can

01:33:09.240 imagine watching maybe they're dead maybe it's a skeleton they died decades ago and they're just

01:33:14.140 sitting there watching jimmy kimmel uh he had a problem of course with elon and the liberal

01:33:20.900 d-bag that he is and and catering to his liberal d-bag audience um in in the studio i mean not the 0.67

01:33:29.700 dead guy sitting on his couch uh he's got a problem with musk he calls him the wealthy weirdo 0.92

01:33:37.000 get it and says that the newly minted trillionaire is stealing from us so he's a weirdo who's stealing

01:33:46.820 uh from the people he said what makes it even more unsettling is that this man our first

01:33:53.520 trillionaire the richest man in the world is also one of the weirdest people we've ever seen

01:33:59.080 on this planet really hmm one of the weirdest you know i do understand some geniuses tend to

01:34:07.840 be a little eclectic i think uh nikola tesla who by the way i think the single most influential

01:34:18.740 person as far as what we use on a daily basis nikola tesla was the inventor he came up with

01:34:28.560 those ideas out of his head and and brought them forth for us to use you think uh the world was

01:34:36.780 going to work on that stupid edison direct current oh please uh it's tesla's alternating current that 0.99

01:34:47.480 is the future people watch us electrocute an elephant on a side tangent do you know they 0.99

01:34:56.940 actually did that edison thomas edison who uh wanted to be the guy that supplied electricity

01:35:05.100 to the people of america and starting out in in the big cities of course in menlo park

01:35:11.380 um he he wanted to be the guy and he wanted his direct current to be the current that was used

01:35:22.280 uh tesla was all about alternating current which is what we use to this day in our houses and

01:35:29.960 businesses and um edison and his ilk said that alternating current is far too dangerous

01:35:39.580 far too dangerous so in order to make a point of how dangerous alternating current was they

01:35:47.860 He took an elephant and wired him up with alternating current and electrocuted him in public, the poor elephant, and just watched him die in smoke and said,

01:36:01.140 See? This is what alternating current does to you people.

01:36:06.380 This is not the future.

01:36:09.200 And now here we are with alternating current.

01:36:11.620 A little history lesson from Anthony Cumia.

01:36:14.380 Thank you very much.

01:36:15.240 uh he says uh what makes it even more unsettling is this man is our first trillionaire the richest

01:36:23.980 man on the planet is also uh the weirdest guy this obscenely wealthy weirdo has the ability

01:36:29.100 and means to blow up the moon if he chooses and also to put a lot of other people's money in his

01:36:35.580 pockets what how why what so uh then the story says he went from the uh initial ipo price of

01:36:48.460 135 dollars a share it escalated to 175 dollars a share and made the company worth over two trillion

01:36:58.400 dollars and uh here's what jimmy kimmel has to say about that kimmel said musk paid almost no

01:37:05.480 federal income tax over the past three years yeah elon musk personally himself um and referencing

01:37:13.900 his move from the u.s uh to the u.s from south africa in 1995 this is the just the funniest

01:37:20.480 you know for a guy who has been openly cheering immigrants getting kicked out of the country for 0.98

01:37:26.300 stealing from us sure seems like an immigrant who's been stealing from us to me 0.99

01:37:31.580 hilarious right so obviously talking about uh illegals coming to this country and the fraud 0.98

01:37:44.960 that was perpetrated by the somalis up in minnesota and all that stuff when elon was 0.52

01:37:52.580 part of doge with the government cutting back on redundant jobs and all that saving uh the

01:38:00.320 taxpayers money and uh he has to equate the fact that elon's an immigrant he came here from south

01:38:09.180 africa as a legal immigrant and he's trying to make a connection between illegals that come here

01:38:15.460 or legal immigrants from somalia who are nothing but a burden on the country and when they do open

01:38:22.220 of business. It's just to perpetrate fraud against the American taxpayers. That's the same as a guy 1.00

01:38:28.900 who built amazing, innovative tech companies and has helped mankind and employs people to the tune

01:38:40.200 of billions of dollars in tax revenue. I don't know why I let myself get worked up like this.

01:38:47.740 i really don't kevin from the beach of long in new york what's up how you doing that good yeah

01:38:55.740 you know people don't talk about the 4400 instant millionaires that are in his employee

01:39:01.240 right didn't get paid when spacex first started so he gave them stop options and now they're

01:39:06.960 multi-millionaires all 40 what a great point what an american success story that is there are

01:39:15.020 employees of spacex that because spacex was on such a shoestring budget back uh when they were

01:39:23.380 starting up a lot of failures a lot of crashed rockets um there were employees that elon needed

01:39:30.160 and said look can't pay you a lot now but when we go public and even when they were private they

01:39:37.520 did divide up some some uh stock options for these people and when they went public with the ipo

01:39:44.200 these people over 4 000 people became millionaires these are people that working

01:39:50.840 americans these weren't upper echelon management these are maintenance guys technicians

01:39:58.040 mechanics that because they believed in this guy and what he was doing made millions of dollars

01:40:08.200 in 2026 now they're millionaires because uh of what elon musk did so you know kevin these people

01:40:16.220 like uh uh liz warren and bernie sanders and and chuck schumer they could all go screw that's right 0.96

01:40:25.660 go screw as you go screw yeah thank you kevin awesome man yeah i forgot that part damn imagine 0.93

01:40:36.280 that you go to work for someone you're working there for years you're doing all right the company 0.98

01:40:40.560 starts taking off and then one day you wake up and you're a millionaire because of that guy and

01:40:47.660 that company and everything that all the employees did together just amazing just amazing uh there

01:40:56.640 was i think from last sunday to now a few things have transpired of course the carmelo anthony

01:41:05.980 case came to a conclusion with a conviction of carmelo anthony for murder and a 35 year prison

01:41:12.220 sentence and um it's so good to see the country come together as one and agree that our judicial

01:41:19.640 system did the right thing and what hold it i'm hearing something about oh i'm hearing i don't

01:41:26.220 know what the f i'm talking about uh it's incredibly divided on racial lines and uh 0.79

01:41:32.240 Some people are, what's the word, retarded? 0.95

01:41:35.720 Oh, my God, you shouldn't use that word. 0.93

01:41:37.920 It's very offensive.

01:41:39.540 Yeah, so we saw what happened.

01:41:42.660 We saw as much of the trial as we could because it wasn't being broadcast

01:41:46.560 through independent reporters, mostly.

01:41:51.820 And we got to hear what the testimony was, what the evidence was.

01:41:57.720 And anyone of right mind, anyone with any ability for reasonable deduction, understood that that was not a self-defense case.

01:42:11.980 There was not one witness that got up there that convinced the jury that if they were sitting there in that seat that Carmelo Anthony was sitting in, that they would have to kill Austin Metcalf to walk away from that situation.

01:42:30.600 Because that's really what the defense had to do.

01:42:33.640 They had to convince that jury that in order for them in that same situation to stand up and walk away from that alive, Austin Metcalf had to die.

01:42:48.520 And the jury was like, you have not given me anything to even consider killing someone in that situation because my life depended on him being dispatched before I was.

01:43:03.640 That's why it was the lousiest self-defense case I've ever seen.

01:43:10.740 And people are losing their mind because they just can't get a grip on this kid killed another kid for no reason.

01:43:20.340 Pride, maybe.

01:43:21.580 He didn't like that he was being disrespected.

01:43:24.500 It certainly wasn't because any reasonable thinking person would believe in the same circumstance that their life was in imminent danger of being taken.

01:43:35.660 That's why the verdict was guilty.

01:43:39.080 And the fact that it was guilty of murder and not manslaughter is because he meant to do grave bodily harm to Austin Metcalf.

01:43:48.860 You don't stab someone in the chest and think,

01:43:52.940 well, I'm just going to give him a little cut. 0.99

01:43:55.520 If he would have cut him on the cheek 0.94

01:43:56.840 or even if he would have cut him on the neck 0.98

01:43:59.740 and said, oh, I meant to just put a scar on his cheek, 0.85

01:44:04.920 he thrust the knife dead center into Austin Metcalf's chest. 0.99

01:44:10.640 I think you mean to kill someone when you do that.

01:44:15.020 We'll get back to this because I have a few other things

01:44:18.360 that have come up over the course of the week since the verdict.

01:44:21.660 And your calls when we return.

01:44:25.640 This is the Anthony Cumia Show.

01:44:40.000 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:44:44.900 it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple podcast network you know people were complaining

01:44:53.080 obviously people that are supporting carmelo um the murderer uh are saying that uh the trial

01:45:00.940 went too fast so it must have been some kind of a setup it must have been some kind of everyone's

01:45:06.880 in on it the judge and this one uh i would love if trials went that fast do you know how we'd

01:45:14.660 Free up the court system if trials went that way.

01:45:17.760 If you could run a murder trial in a week,

01:45:21.060 what are we doing with taking forever for assault trials

01:45:26.300 and this one and that one?

01:45:28.640 Let's get them in and out, in and out.

01:45:31.460 Get them done.

01:45:33.840 So the conviction and the sentencing of Carmelo Anthony came down,

01:45:42.060 and uh he's he's in prison as we speak and some people are none too happy about it

01:45:48.940 uh i've been going through social media and seeing people threatening you know white people

01:45:57.240 need to be singled out and beaten uh this was a miscarriage of justice it's just more

01:46:03.740 of the same systemic racism just it runs the gamut and uh then there's the outright lies 0.73

01:46:12.400 that never happened in the courtroom there are people trying to say that uh the judge

01:46:19.420 the prosecutor and austin metcalf's father knew each other there's a picture of the three of them

01:46:27.820 playing golf it you know do you know what ai is we used to uh have to photoshop things

01:46:38.340 it took some talent to make it look good it's very difficult to photoshop something and really

01:46:44.920 make it look authentic but nowadays with ai do you honestly think the judge the prosecutor

01:46:53.360 and uh jeffrey medcalf were were golfing together uh no a lot of people are falling for a lot of

01:47:07.420 lies backed up by ai they don't um they don't do their own research to try to find out they do

01:47:16.280 enough research until something matches exactly what they want it to match and then they go online

01:47:23.800 and talk about it like an expert and uh carmelo anthony murdered austin metcalf a court uh a jury

01:47:34.140 found him guilty oh it was an all-white jury no it wasn't it was a jury of white hispanic

01:47:42.140 and asian men and women well there weren't 80 black people on the jury yeah they all

01:47:50.620 were excluded because they could not say they wouldn't be unbiased they were going to have

01:47:59.640 a bias if they sat on that jury because of i don't know maybe an experience that they had

01:48:08.780 that was similar maybe based on nothing but skin color one of the prospective black jurors had

01:48:16.400 said something to the effect of i couldn't put a brother behind bars uh and another one said he

01:48:23.460 looked so young they said you you legally the prosecution is able to go yeah i don't want that

01:48:31.820 person on the jury there wasn't a trick this is legal protocol when a jury is being chosen

01:48:40.800 the defense and the prosecution have exemptions that they can make based on a number of things

01:48:48.800 one thing you can't make an exception of is race you also can't include someone just because of

01:48:58.280 their race but you know you hear from some people on social media and it's all all about race uh

01:49:09.320 he he got railroaded he's innocent it was self-defense he was jumped by four people

01:49:16.780 uh i would i would i have never seen such consistent testimony from so many different

01:49:26.100 witnesses in this trial every defense uh or prosecution witness that was called up had the

01:49:34.820 same story and not the same story like it was written down and recited they were all around

01:49:41.340 the area under the tent next to the tent where this happened and they all had the same story

01:49:49.360 this guy came in sat down some people say someone greeted him when he was uh coming to the tent said

01:49:57.460 oh this guy other people didn't know him from a hole in the wall the Metcalf brothers hadn't even

01:50:02.620 come into the tent yet and he sits down and you know the Metcalfs get there and they say who's

01:50:10.320 this guy they look probably looked around the tent they recognize people from their school 0.98

01:50:13.880 and go who's this guy sitting over there yeah he's got to go oh it's raining oh well kill kill 0.99

01:50:20.800 him then i guess you can murder someone if it's raining and they tell you to get out and go into 0.99

01:50:25.540 the rain all these things that kept coming up all the distractions the smoke and mirrors was he

01:50:33.220 invited did austin metcalf have authority to tell him to leave was he allowed in the tent was all

01:50:41.820 that meant nothing nothing it went in one ear of the jury and out the other because the important

01:50:50.640 part was did Carmelo Anthony feel like his life was an immediate threat of being taken away

01:51:00.760 did he have to kill Austin Metcalf or he himself would have been killed that's it

01:51:09.080 oh a knife was it allowed on school grounds how big was the tent did he know someone in there

01:51:18.420 was it nothing mattered that was inconsequential static noise but it's of galactic import to

01:51:29.180 supporters of carmelo anthony oh he was allowed to have that knife oh good was he allowed to

01:51:37.080 thrust it into his chest i say no oh he was invited into the tent oh so when you're invited

01:51:46.280 somewhere you can stab someone in the chest i guess that's a new lie i wasn't aware of 0.82

01:51:53.160 all of it is such smoke and mirrors and and distraction from the major point that carmelo 0.66

01:52:02.720 anthony murdered austin metcalf and now we're getting people from the black community saying 0.55

01:52:08.320 that white people need to be taught a lesson for this that they uh want to go around we've seen a 0.78

01:52:15.000 couple of instances of black people going around punching white people and saying were you on the 0.94

01:52:20.180 jury uh weren't you on the uh the carmelo anthony jury so these things go on and nothing's done 0.75

01:52:31.120 about it nothing said about it why why can't we talk about this why can't we say no that's wrong

01:52:40.200 you're wrong and if you threaten violence against white people because a murderer was convicted

01:52:47.340 uh you deserve some type of consequence repercussions legal you know um or if you're

01:52:55.920 out there on the streets trying to dispatch somebody because you support carmelo anthony

01:53:01.540 maybe things won't work out so well for you this is just life this is how it happens but i i was

01:53:08.600 surprised by the number of people that uh just based on skin color alone supported carmelo

01:53:17.920 Anthony when all the evidence pointed to he murdered Austin Metcalf this wasn't self-defense

01:53:26.020 this wasn't an accident the gall when they said that he may have uh impaled himself

01:53:33.780 on Carmelo Anthony's knife I heard the the jury audibly gasped when the lawyer put that scenario

01:53:43.780 forward because it was so out there and so insulting to to the family no he murdered him

01:53:53.920 and now he's going to pay in prison and if you think there's going to be some kind of um an

01:54:01.100 appeal process i think you're sadly mistaken you're going to be as disappointed as you were

01:54:06.640 with the outcome of the trial.

01:54:10.720 There were no problems with this case.

01:54:15.380 It went through like it was supposed to.

01:54:18.520 And, you know, you could keep wishing and hoping it ain't going to happen.

01:54:23.680 He's a murderer, 35 years. 0.60

01:54:25.760 We'll be back. 0.95

01:54:26.300 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:54:31.000 it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple podcast network uh the ufc event at the white

01:54:40.960 house and i haven't listened to it but i just see bob de niro there uh uh uh he goes good evening

01:55:22.300 Beth Page, Chris.

01:55:25.220 Hey, Anthony.

01:55:26.320 Before I get to the Carmelo Anthony thing, I got to say, 30 years ago, by far,

01:55:30.900 my favorite rock and roll performer was Bruce Springsteen,

01:55:34.340 and my favorite actor was Robert De Niro.

01:55:38.720 What has happened to those two demented people, I mean, they literally,

01:55:42.760 there's something really wrong with both those guys.

01:55:45.160 I mean, really wrong. 1.00

01:55:45.940 Yeah, well, I believe every liberal has some type of mental illness. 1.00

01:55:53.040 Some of them have it worse than others. 0.99

01:55:55.920 I think these liberals that go in front of the ICE facilities that are holding facilities for illegals, 0.97

01:56:03.480 I think they're all severely mentally and emotionally damaged. 1.00

01:56:08.280 But Bruce, yeah, De Niro, they have some kind of mental illness. 0.96

01:56:13.540 Yeah, and I'll tell you this, too, Anthony.

01:56:15.900 I went to high school.

01:56:16.660 I'm a really good friend still to this day with Rosie O'Donnell's cousin.

01:56:20.480 Okay?

01:56:21.080 Great guy.

01:56:22.460 Really? 0.59

01:56:22.760 I used to see her when she did stand-up when she was, like, 21, 22 at Chuckles in Mineola, if you remember that club.

01:56:31.160 Yeah, Chuckles in Mineola, Eastside Comedy Club in Huntington.

01:56:34.560 Yep.

01:56:35.180 Yeah, but anyhow, she, and I met her a couple times.

01:56:38.980 She was a normal person. 1.00

01:56:40.180 Now she's completely demented.

01:56:42.260 But anyhow, I'm sorry.

01:56:45.320 The reason I called, though, was about the Carmelo Anthony.

01:56:48.540 So have you ever had the pleasure to go on TikTok?

01:56:51.300 They have these, like, panels where you can go up, you request to get up,

01:56:54.480 and you discuss whatever topic that there you have.

01:56:57.080 Oh, yeah, yeah.

01:56:57.940 It's like X has spaces.

01:57:00.340 It's kind of the same thing.

01:57:01.500 I get what you mean.

01:57:03.100 Yeah.

01:57:03.440 So anyhow, I had the pleasure of going on there yesterday, okay?

01:57:07.240 They were talking about the Carmelo Anthony case.

01:57:09.440 Now, you cannot for the life you believe what they believe.

01:57:13.640 And most of them, you know, no, no. 1.00

01:57:15.540 And most of them are black. 1.00

01:57:17.220 So I'm trying to have a discussion with them. 1.00

01:57:18.860 I go, can we just have a logical discussion about this whole thing?

01:57:21.620 And they go, fine.

01:57:22.800 So the second I start bringing up facts, this is what they believe.

01:57:26.640 They believe that Carmelo Anthony was invited by a friend of his into the tent.

01:57:32.960 He was invited in.

01:57:34.000 This is what they believe.

01:57:35.260 And he went and sat down and was talking to the guy.

01:57:38.980 And then, okay, if you can believe this,

01:57:42.120 practically half the football team came over.

01:57:45.940 Like, you see?

01:57:46.480 Right, right.

01:57:46.840 No, really, this is what they're saying.

01:57:49.000 Came over, and they're like, what are you doing here?

01:57:50.860 Get out of here. 0.93

01:57:51.840 And immediately, like, because they're all racist. 0.88

01:57:54.920 So then I tried to make the point.

01:57:56.520 I go, wait, wait, wait. 0.96

01:57:58.100 Those guys are racist, but was his friend white or black that invited him in? 0.94

01:58:01.640 And they said, oh, we believe he was white. 0.98

01:58:03.180 I go, okay, so at least there wasn't one racist in there.

01:58:05.760 At least he had a friend.

01:58:07.240 Right, he invited him in. 0.83

01:58:09.060 They invited him in, and then they said, and then the woman was yelling at me. 0.82

01:58:14.500 She's like, have you ever been pushed?

01:58:16.540 You know, if you get pushed, what happens?

01:58:18.300 I swear to God, this is what goes on with me.

01:58:19.720 Yeah, I've been pushed, and I didn't return with a knife

01:58:22.700 and stab someone after I was pushed.

01:58:25.340 They don't understand.

01:58:26.820 That's not self-defense.

01:58:30.120 Anthony, you know what I said?

01:58:31.160 I go, I've taken the subway for 40 years, and I'm not getting around.

01:58:35.060 Not just pushed.

01:58:35.960 I've gotten, like, really, like, getting on the train,

01:58:38.380 like someone would come from behind and just get PO'd at you

01:58:41.380 and just, like, push in the back because you'd, like, cut him off.

01:58:44.040 Like, really bad. 0.99

01:58:45.060 Did I take out a knife and turn around and stab the guy? 0.98

01:58:47.500 You know what I'm saying? 0.73

01:58:48.040 Like, yeah, I've been pushed many times.

01:58:50.160 So, and then they go, oh, another thing they said is he didn't have really,

01:58:53.740 he wasn't a knife.

01:58:54.460 It was, like, a multi-faceted thing.

01:58:56.120 No, it was a knife.

01:58:58.500 No, no, no.

01:58:59.040 But listen, this is what they're telling you.

01:59:00.820 This is what they say, right.

01:59:02.700 This is what they say. 0.99

01:59:03.620 This is how demented they are. 0.98

01:59:04.760 And they all agree with it. 0.89

01:59:05.860 on the panel and i'm the only one going against them like eight of them i'm telling you so they're

01:59:09.960 telling me that no he goes do you ever have like a corkscrew when you have to like you know it's

01:59:15.380 like a multi-purpose thing so he carried a multi-purpose thing on him okay and then when

01:59:22.020 he felt threatened by the whole football team i'm telling you this is what they all believe

01:59:25.700 the whole football team was pushing him and he got up and he was afraid and he just pulled out

01:59:31.760 the multi-purpose thing that he happened to have with him and he just stabbed him right in the

01:59:36.220 heart so then i said okay you know it's weird where was the friend like defending the friend

01:59:41.100 that invited him in in other words wouldn't the friend say to these put the whole football team

01:59:45.580 hey guys guys i invited him in that's why right right chill out he's my friend you know yeah he

01:59:50.700 could stay no none of that yeah i just the only reason i said is because so what they do anthony

01:59:56.780 and they're very effective and i'm never going on it again they mute you so when you try to

02:00:01.800 respond to something they immediately mute you and then they start telling you that you're a

02:00:07.660 white racist of course it's the same tactic that the entire left uses democrats use it the left 0.87

02:00:14.680 uses it the mental patients that protest use it and black lives matter use it and anyone 0.98

02:00:20.620 of limited intelligence they don't want to hear you speak you might come up with something that

02:00:28.440 convinces someone else of what you're saying and they can't have that because they can't debate

02:00:34.980 people they can't engage in lively debate they need to silence anyone that's saying something

02:00:41.360 they don't agree with or any point they want to get across i've seen it a thousand times man

02:00:47.940 I know.

02:00:48.760 And the only thing I was saying, and they kept muting me,

02:00:51.500 was I was going down the whole friend angle.

02:00:54.580 That was their big thing, that the friend invited him in.

02:00:57.440 So he didn't just wander in there.

02:00:59.120 The friend invited him.

02:01:00.140 And even that doesn't matter.

02:01:01.660 It doesn't even matter who invited him in.

02:01:04.340 He was sitting there, and Austin Metcalf wanted him to leave.

02:01:10.840 Everyone else could have loved Carmelo Anthony

02:01:13.400 and wanted him to stay.

02:01:14.860 It doesn't matter.

02:01:16.480 Austin Metcalf wanted him to leave.

02:01:18.180 He says, can you leave?

02:01:19.920 Get up and leave 15 times.

02:01:21.820 Then he puts his hand on his shoulder, gives him a little push.

02:01:25.080 It's been called a gentle push, a shove. 0.67

02:01:28.360 He does that and says, leave, and then gets stabbed in the chest, and he dies. 0.93

02:01:33.060 That's it. 0.98

02:01:33.960 That's all you need to frigging know about this case. 0.94

02:01:39.760 I know.

02:01:40.480 And then before they cut me off, they said, because my point was very simply this, is I wanted to explore the friend angle.

02:01:47.900 I go, you keep talking about this friend that was invited him in.

02:01:51.000 I go, first of all, Carmelo Anthony went to a different school.

02:01:54.740 He and Zapposy, they had a tent over there.

02:01:57.100 He could have gone to that tent.

02:01:58.400 And that's what these kids were telling him.

02:02:00.040 They were like, hey, why don't you go to your opposing.

02:02:02.640 Yeah, they didn't have a tent is what happened.

02:02:05.660 His school didn't have a tent, didn't bring one.

02:02:08.040 but again static doesn't matter he had a tent he didn't have a tent he was in their tent he sat

02:02:15.220 down he felt disrespected and killed a boy that's it and they don't want to hear that part chris i

02:02:21.980 gotta move on but uh thanks for the call uh yeah it there there is facts there are are facts that

02:02:32.100 But they don't want to hear because they rip apart the scenario that they want to put in place.

02:02:44.460 Because that's exactly what happened.

02:02:47.020 He went into the tent.

02:02:49.140 He was told to leave.

02:02:50.180 He didn't leave.

02:02:51.500 When he was approached by Austin, he stabbed Austin Metcalf.

02:02:56.180 There you go.

02:02:57.820 That's the whole case.

02:02:58.940 anyone adding anything to it is just trying to bamboozle you and they've made such a racial

02:03:06.160 thing about this that it had to be racism isn't it amazing that every single thing is racism

02:03:13.700 uh george floyd and derrick chauvin that was racism uh george zimmerman and trayvon martin

02:03:21.980 that was racism even uh what's his name uh uh kyle uh from from uh the protest the black lives 0.60

02:03:32.780 matter protest whatever the hell his last name is he uh he didn't even shoot uh any black people 0.82

02:03:38.740 he shot white guys racism mike brown racism hands up don't shoot that never happened there's never 0.99

02:03:47.680 one instance where there's an altercation between a white person or a hispanic person 0.99

02:03:55.420 and a black person where it isn't racism that the black person may have had some responsibility

02:04:03.880 in how it ended up never it's constant racism you know i've heard oh this is jim crow all over again

02:04:16.020 There was a woman that actually in front of the courthouse after the verdict said, we are watching a modern day lynching, lynching.

02:04:27.440 He's the one that's alive. 0.83

02:04:30.340 The white kid's dead. 1.00

02:04:33.100 The black kid's alive and convicted of murder. 0.91

02:04:37.300 How is that a lynching? 1.00

02:04:40.000 But, you know, they love bringing up and they're dumb white liberal women. 1.00

02:04:46.020 uh they're they're defenders because white liberal women love treating black people like 1.00

02:04:51.640 their pets so they're the ones that jump right in and go this is racist and they hate their 1.00

02:04:58.380 whiteness and they want to be a good ally to black people so they just lie right along with them 0.87

02:05:04.420 and uh it's it's just it's embarrassing more than anything i'm on social media all the time 0.65

02:05:13.220 watching listening to other videos and whatnot and and the the the emotion i get even more so

02:05:21.200 than anger is embarrassment because how do you not see what's happening and how do you blame

02:05:29.000 everything on racism uh systemic racism oppression uh xenophobia 200 years ago 600 years ago

02:05:40.960 So how do you use that as a universal excuse, especially in in this era, 2026 and a few years before, maybe the past decade where we are seeing an increase in horrific behavior?

02:06:02.460 teen uh you know they get like a teen gathering as uh brendan johnson has called it these are

02:06:12.620 gatherings the teen gatherings why are these things still happening how is no one in any of

02:06:21.840 these cities where this is happening all the time doing anything about it well they're petrified to

02:06:27.760 do anything about it because they have to say all right let's look at who's doing this and then when

02:06:34.760 you realize the vast majority are young black kids then you're you're really between a rock

02:06:41.780 and a hard place now you got to go all right why why are these teen riots and fights and everything 0.98

02:06:52.320 else predominantly overwhelmingly young black people well now you've opened up a can of worms 0.71

02:06:59.720 haven't you because now you got to go through quite a few things as to why this might happen

02:07:05.680 and the things might be illegitimacy drug use parents that aren't doing anything if there even

02:07:13.720 are parents uh in the mix the education system that has taken away any form of discipline

02:07:21.500 because they decided discipline was racist.

02:07:27.460 These are all the reasons why no one wants to even discuss these teen takeovers.

02:07:35.740 They're happening everywhere.

02:07:37.340 And then they change the rules of wherever the venue is that they're destroying.

02:07:44.480 And why are they doing that?

02:07:46.100 because they can't single out the group of people

02:07:49.760 that are perpetrating these assaults and vandalism and whatnot.

02:07:55.440 Amusement parks.

02:07:56.580 This summer, everyone wants to go to a water park.

02:08:00.080 Six Flags, Great Adventure in Jersey.

02:08:02.700 They got Six Flags.

02:08:04.320 Amusement parks all over the country.

02:08:06.160 And every single one of them now,

02:08:09.680 everyone under 18 years of age has to have a chaperone,

02:08:13.960 a parent or guardian.

02:08:15.120 And only five at a time can be chaperoned by any one adult. 1.00

02:08:20.140 And it's all because of teen takeovers, which consist of young black men and women, boys and girls, just wreaking havoc on these places. 1.00

02:08:32.780 So now no one gets to go to an amusement park with their friends, without the parents. 1.00

02:08:39.120 You know how important that was growing up to be in your teens

02:08:44.360 and you finally grew up enough to take one of your buddy's vehicles?

02:08:50.180 He's 18.

02:08:51.480 He's got a car.

02:08:52.780 Your friends are 17, 18, and you can drive to the amusement park,

02:08:59.140 great adventure, by yourself with no parents.

02:09:02.380 It was part of growing up.

02:09:04.800 Now you can't do it.

02:09:06.740 Why? 0.99

02:09:07.100 Because one group of people can't keep their crap in order. 0.98

02:09:13.460 There's no authority that could tell them what they cannot do in these places. 0.99

02:09:21.940 Every city, Chicago, every weekend, and sometimes on the weekdays.

02:09:27.760 Teen takeover.

02:09:28.800 And what does Brandon Johnson do?

02:09:30.460 Nothing.

02:09:31.020 Oh, we're going to have the YMCA open up until midnight

02:09:40.060 so these youngsters could go to the YMCA.

02:09:43.600 Do you think any of these thugs want to go to the YMCA?

02:09:51.480 They want to go out on the street.

02:09:54.100 They want to cause trouble. 0.97

02:09:56.300 They want to get their stripes by beating the crap out of someone.

02:10:00.280 or busting up a business.

02:10:04.120 If they wanted to go into the YMCA in the first place,

02:10:07.800 they wouldn't be getting into trouble.

02:10:10.520 They'd be nice kids.

02:10:13.400 No one is going to the YMCA in Chicago, Brandon Johnson.

02:10:18.980 You know what you need to do?

02:10:21.100 Get the cops to go out there

02:10:24.100 and start dealing out some consequence of action

02:10:27.900 to these kids, these teens, these rambunctious youth

02:10:33.500 that are tearing up your city and making it impossible

02:10:38.060 for civil citizens to enjoy the city this summer.

02:10:44.180 It's going to be a hot summer, and man, oh, man, does that mean trouble.

02:10:50.240 But he won't do anything.

02:10:52.400 Open up the doors of the YMCA until midnight.

02:10:56.860 You know what you're going to get? 1.00

02:10:57.900 a bunch of gay guys taking showers together i gotta be honest 0.94

02:11:02.700 the village people wrote a little song about it like to play it for you now here and go 0.99

02:11:22.760 doing buddy good man anthony this whole thing with carmelo anthony goes to prove that blacks 0.97

02:11:30.220 can be very malicious and evil towards whites this whole nonsense we've heard for so many years for 0.98

02:11:36.420 the past 40 50 maybe even 60 years that oh it's impossible for black people to be racist because 1.00

02:11:44.260 black people don't have the economic wherewithal and right whatever the hell else but you need 0.99

02:11:50.640 power and and you have to be part of the economy and everything which is such nonsense you could 0.99

02:11:57.360 be racist believe me i've seen it a lot yeah because i was i remember growing up in jersey 0.71

02:12:52.000 no one's saying pointing out problems in in the black community is saying that it's everybody 0.99

02:12:59.060 you got to be an idiot to say oh it's every single person in the black community but there is a 1.00

02:13:06.080 insane disproportionate number that seem to be incredibly racist and hateful toward white people 1.00

02:13:15.280 and are willing to resort to violence to, you know, get through that, 0.99

02:13:22.400 to satisfy that thirst for hate.

02:13:27.120 And it happens.

02:13:28.660 It's happening a lot.

02:13:29.860 Back in a minute.

02:13:30.860 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

02:13:36.760 A safer Ontario means more police and prosecutors making sure my car doesn't get stolen.

02:13:41.800 It means building new jails to keep criminals behind bars.

02:13:45.960 And it means there's no need to worry when I play at the park.

02:13:49.300 We're making every corner of Ontario safer to make all of Ontario safer.

02:13:53.940 That's how we protect Ontario.

02:13:55.960 For all of us.

02:13:58.040 Learn how at Ontario.ca slash Safer Ontario.

02:14:01.140 Paid for by the Government of Ontario.

02:14:06.940 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

02:14:12.660 It's Bob De Niro at the counter-programming that the liberals put together for the UFC White House brawls.

02:14:23.080 And here is Robert De Niro talking about Trump and the country.

02:14:29.600 He apparently doesn't love the country anymore.

02:14:33.300 How about you leave?

02:14:34.920 Let's listen to Bob De Niro.

02:14:36.660 later the latest uh later the letter stated

02:14:42.980 political affiliation or whether we engage in politics or not we all love our country

02:14:49.660 still with me not so fast the phrase we all love our country stuck in my throat

02:14:59.300 because our country isn't so lovable right now

02:15:03.520 Oh, I hate to say it, but loving our country is starting to sound like an abused spouse saying they love their abuser 1.00

02:15:13.840 All these friggin hands I can't love a country that starts stupid and inhumane wars 1.00

02:15:24.680 Killing thousands of innocents and indirectly causing the deaths and suffering of millions more I 1.00

02:15:30.840 i can't love a country that takes health care away from millions of people and uses

02:15:36.860 oh they can't clap enough money to enrich their pals in the trump epstein class

02:15:43.920 trump epstein class i can't love a country that sends out masked militias to shoot citizens in

02:15:50.520 the streets torture our neighbors and separate families what obviously talking about ice i can't 0.99

02:15:57.600 love a country that's led by a racist misogynist xenophobic tyrant and let me let me just say it 0.97

02:16:10.400 i can't love the country that's led by donald trump wow what a guy oh bob de niro 1.00

02:16:20.020 the same old crap coming out of him massed what marauders mass death squads mass 1.00

02:16:30.220 again zero responsibility you try to run over ice agents you're going to get shot in the face 1.00

02:16:39.520 sorry don't do it and you won't get shot in the face if you're carrying a gun

02:16:47.240 don't get into a physical altercation with the police.

02:16:51.360 How about that? 1.00

02:16:52.420 That's another good rule of thumb, unless you're an idiot. 1.00

02:16:57.060 But they're dividing families. 1.00

02:17:01.500 They're trying to get out illegal invaders that were let in by your buddy Joe Biden,

02:17:08.740 who you're starting to sound like.

02:17:12.400 And then they're just applauding. 1.00

02:17:15.760 We have a collection of jackasses in this country. 1.00

02:17:21.620 Just a giant collection of jackasses. 1.00

02:17:26.360 Hollywood. 1.00

02:17:27.600 Oh, have I had it with Hollywood.

02:17:30.600 That was one of the worst parts of the Knick games, the ones at the Garden.

02:17:35.640 Watching the Hollywood elite courtside like they're part of the team.

02:17:42.840 Oh, God, I can't stand it.

02:17:45.760 self-important. God, I've almost cursed like eight times tonight. I've come so close

02:17:53.600 because I'm just so aggravated. By the way, the, you know, the war, the war, the war, the quote,

02:18:03.080 tonight, a breakthrough peace agreement reached between the United States and Iran, signaling

02:18:07.720 an immediate halt to the highly destructive 2026 Iran War.

02:18:14.520 U.S. President Trump announced that the diplomatic accord is officially complete,

02:18:19.680 ordering the immediate lifting of the devastating U.S. naval blockade,

02:18:24.100 mediated primarily by Pakistan,

02:18:27.940 an immediate and permanent cessation of military operations

02:18:32.560 is now in effect across all regional theaters.

02:18:35.840 and a formal signing ceremony is scheduled for june 19th in switzerland uh the straits of

02:18:44.720 hormuz reopening iran will immediately stop its naval threats and fully open the straits

02:18:48.860 or most of global commercial shipping alleviating a catastrophic global energy and supply crisis

02:18:54.140 all right sanctions and asset relief in exchange for cooperation the u.s began

02:19:00.320 releasing frozen iranian assets including billions previously held in the united arab emirates

02:19:07.760 and waive aggressive sanctions on iranian crude oil exports and then the nuclear status quo that's

02:19:13.920 the biggie isn't it iran has agreed to freeze its nuclear program halt uranium enrichment and

02:19:19.420 pause facility expansions a structured 60-day negotiation period will follow to handle

02:19:24.600 the permanent dismantling of its nuclear stockpiles.

02:19:30.000 Look, there's some good in there. 0.97

02:19:32.200 There's some crap in there. 1.00

02:19:33.940 I don't trust Iran as far as I could throw them, 1.00

02:19:37.160 especially with the nuclear thing.

02:19:38.960 But I think the attacks have really put a damper on their nuclear program,

02:19:44.900 more so than any talks or trusting them with people coming in

02:19:49.780 and taking a little look,

02:19:50.880 making sure they're not pulling shenanigans with uranium enrichment. 0.92

02:19:57.740 Blowing up a lot of their garbage, I think, will help out

02:20:01.000 in at least pushing it down the road a little bit.

02:20:04.300 So we'll see.
