00:00:00.000 On the biggest stage in the world, FanDuel is changing the game

00:00:04.120 because sometimes your player gets subbed off and your bet goes with them.

00:00:07.520 Not anymore.

00:00:08.480 With FanDuel's Super Sub, if your player's subbed out, your bet stays in.

00:00:12.820 That's right.

00:00:13.380 If your player leaves the match, your bet continues on with the substitute,

00:00:17.560 so you're still in it until the final whistle.

00:01:01.820 on the Red Apple Podcast

00:01:04.180 Network.

00:01:06.080 The Anthony Cumia Show.

00:01:08.120 Welcome back. Hope you had a great week

00:01:10.320 in the interim

00:01:11.840 betwixt

00:01:13.760 last Sunday and tonight

00:01:15.820 I certainly hope you had

00:01:17.900 a good week.

00:01:19.780 I did, but that's kind of

00:01:21.620 inconsequential. 0.99

00:01:23.840 Um, played a little of that, uh, top golf yesterday and, uh, oh, age is a bitch. 1.00

00:01:34.260 You just, uh, you know, your body ain't made to swing around like that. 1.00

00:01:40.260 And, uh, it was fun.

00:01:41.920 The weather was great, but, uh, I'm feeling it.

00:01:44.820 I'm feeling it a bit.

00:01:46.340 I hope, uh, you had a great weekend and, uh, yeah, we'll, we'll get going here.

00:01:52.200 800-848-9222 is the number if you want to join in, converse with me about what the hell is going on.

00:02:04.760 And hell it is in some places, that is for sure.

00:02:10.380 Hollywood, you all know, if you've listened to this show once or twice, maybe,

00:02:17.000 you would understand my disdain for Hollywood. 1.00

00:02:22.200 It is just a pit of garbage people. 1.00

00:02:28.640 They truly believe they are better than you. 1.00

00:02:32.060 They know what's best for you.

00:02:35.740 That's some real...

00:02:38.300 That'll get you pissed off when you hear them speak.

00:02:44.220 Whatever.

00:02:45.020 You feel that way.

00:02:46.380 Keep it to yourself.

00:02:47.720 Pop in front of a camera.

00:02:49.040 have some writer pour some words into your empty head and we'll love it we'll go to the movies

00:02:56.200 we'll keep you uh wealthy in your gated home with your security guards and everything the second you

00:03:02.820 started telling us how we should live our lives what we should believe in uh that really started

00:03:10.600 the snowball rolling downhill and um we don't like you anymore we don't consider you the beautiful 0.99

00:03:18.700 people um tinsel town which hollywood used to be called is now a tarnished crap hole 0.61

00:03:27.660 uh and and no one really no one cares about it anymore i really don't there's not this mystique

00:03:35.940 it's just gone the shine has gone away and um i would be remiss in my duties here

00:03:45.780 as a radio talk show host

00:03:48.420 to not discuss some of the people

00:03:50.840 who have recently spouted off

00:03:52.660 some of these celebrities.

00:03:57.240 Celebrity means to celebrate.

00:03:59.820 That alone is like, really?

00:04:02.120 You're kidding me, right?

00:04:03.620 We should celebrate you?

00:04:05.980 You're a celebrity?

00:04:08.740 So Rob Reiner,

00:04:10.900 oh, the lovable meathead.

00:04:13.420 I have to assume people that listen to this program on these various stations and whatnot probably were around during All in the Family back in the early to mid-70s, when it was at its peak, I think.

00:04:29.660 and Rob Reiner played Meathead

00:04:32.540 and boy did we never think

00:04:35.660 in real life 1.00

00:04:37.480 he could be more moronic 1.00

00:04:40.460 than Michael Stivick 1.00

00:04:43.640 Archie's liberal

00:04:45.900 son-in-law

00:04:48.660 and then we found out

00:04:51.660 oh no

00:04:52.460 oh my god

00:04:53.960 he really is Meathead

00:04:56.460 he's more of a liberal

00:05:00.080 Even Meathead, back in the day, watching All in the Family,

00:05:04.280 even he was caught sometimes where Archie would kind of give him a look

00:05:08.320 and go, ah, see there, Meathead? 0.94

00:05:10.600 And Meathead's kind of caught in this hypocritical situation 0.89

00:05:13.520 where he does see certain things about crime or women. 0.59

00:05:18.420 And it was refreshing.

00:05:21.480 Meathead doesn't have any of those qualities.

00:05:23.300 Or the real Meathead, Rob Reiner, doesn't have any of those qualities. 1.00

00:05:26.920 He is an imbecile. 1.00

00:05:29.140 And this panic, they all are panicked about every single thing. 1.00

00:05:36.580 We've seen them with climate change.

00:05:38.900 They love talking about that.

00:05:40.540 How many times have we seen these liberals talk about, well, another three years, another five years, another ten years, and what happens?

00:05:52.060 What happened? My favorite meme that gets posted every so often is the picture of of Plymouth Rock.

00:06:00.800 And you see. That it's still there.

00:06:06.040 The water is no deeper around Plymouth Rock than it was when the pilgrims stepped off of the Mayflower.

00:06:15.560 and apparently you listen to these liberals climate change panicky peats the water levels

00:06:26.540 are rising oh the atmosphere is getting hotter the ice caps are melting and then you look around and

00:06:33.800 go i don't know i remember going to this beach uh on long island since i was a kid and it's still

00:06:39.480 here it's still here so they just want to panic everyone and rob reiner um he was just speaking

00:06:48.000 to someone one of these liberal newscasters i can't imagine i'm actually going on a

00:06:53.000 a news show where someone might ask him tough questions or might call out what he's saying

00:06:58.380 and question it and say hey meathead i would only call him meathead and uh here he is talking about

00:07:06.880 we have a year

00:07:08.880 left. A year. Now you might

00:07:10.960 go, Anthony, what does Meathead say

00:07:12.880 we have one year of?

00:07:15.340 Well, hold on to your hats.

00:07:16.920 It's democracy.

00:07:18.720 There's just a year left.

00:07:21.260 Trump hasn't even been president

00:07:22.620 for a year.

00:07:24.760 And we, by

00:07:25.880 this time next year,

00:07:29.280 you'll be

00:07:30.760 gearing up maybe for Halloween

00:07:32.140 and we

00:07:34.840 will not have a democracy. 1.00

00:07:36.880 Just like the ice caps were going to melt and New York and Florida will be underwater and all the other nonsensical things these morons spout on a daily basis. 0.99

00:07:51.800 So let's listen to a little of Rob Reiner here. I'll let you know when to cut it off, because believe me, I know it's like torture. Here's Rob. 0.99

00:07:59.700 This is just the beginning, and people have to understand, our democracy is being taken away from us, and we only have about a year.

00:08:10.080 Just to be clear about this, and people, you know, you're doing a great job, and a lot of other people are doing a good job.

00:08:16.580 Thank you, Rob. Oh, not me.

00:08:17.420 what is actually happening in this country, but make no mistake, we have a year before this country

00:08:25.240 becomes a full on autocracy and democracy completely leaves us. And we're looking at the

00:08:33.740 election in 2026. And Donald Trump knows, he knows that in a free and fair election,

00:08:43.940 he will lose he will lose the house the house will flip and will become into democratic hands

00:08:50.780 there'll be committee chairs that'll be able to hold hearings and this is the last thing he wants 0.54

00:08:56.120 so this little uh you know these ice agents and the national guard and now he's called the

00:09:04.300 military in from all over the world to talk to them about don't be surprised when polling booths

00:09:12.680 are surrounded by American military

00:09:15.060 in the guise of making sure

00:09:17.540 that the elections are fair

00:09:20.580 and that nobody's tampering with it.

00:09:23.000 Tampering.

00:09:23.480 And when you see violence breaking out,

00:09:26.460 which there'll be protests,

00:09:27.760 there'll be inciting violence,

00:09:29.420 there'll be some violence,

00:09:30.480 and they'll keep back.

00:09:31.180 Then you'll see the commandeering

00:09:32.900 of voting machines, ballot boxes,

00:09:35.360 to make sure that that election is secure.

00:09:38.920 Well, what that means is that

00:09:40.820 he will then commandeer the election so we have to make the public all right i i think i think uh

00:09:47.000 that's enough of rob right now thank you do you hear it do you hear him describing something we

00:09:55.040 saw in 2020 talk about commandeering an election i mean we saw videos of of strange uh people with

00:10:08.360 gloves on, stuffing ballot boxes, boxes, bags, luggage with mysterious ballots being wheeled

00:10:17.340 into counting centers where they boarded up the windows so you couldn't look in.

00:10:25.760 Donald Trump has done nothing in his first term and so far in his second term to even

00:10:31.680 make anyone even think he would try to affect an election illegally or do anything inappropriate

00:10:42.400 when it comes to the sanctity of our election? Who has? Who has? Let's think. Oh, Russia, Russia,

00:10:52.940 Russiagate, Donald Trump is this, that. He's a criminal. Let's try him right before an election 1.00

00:11:00.420 when he's the number one candidate on the opposition of the Democrats, Joe Biden,

00:11:08.580 if anyone has proven that they have tried to illegally influence an election,

00:11:16.360 not even influence, literally do stuff that changes the election,

00:11:22.120 it's the Democrats.

00:11:24.380 They've shown it over and over again.

00:11:26.280 Yet they try to make you believe and make you afraid that Trump is going to do this.

00:11:32.880 Why? Because he sent ICE and the Border Patrol into cities that are known to harbor illegals, illegal aliens that Joe Biden let in. 0.69

00:11:45.180 He's cleaning up Biden's mess.

00:11:48.440 That's all we're seeing is cleaning up the last guy's mess, the invasion he allowed to happen.

00:11:55.260 when he let people just cross over our borders.

00:11:59.940 And because he's sending in the National Guard

00:12:02.360 to protect ICE and the Border Patrol

00:12:06.200 because of the protesters,

00:12:09.900 these are agitators, 0.89

00:12:12.100 these are treasonous agitators

00:12:16.100 that are assaulting law enforcement,

00:12:19.620 preventing them from doing their job,

00:12:21.780 the job we want them to do.

00:12:23.660 We voted in Donald Trump to do this.

00:12:29.160 It's not protesting.

00:12:31.740 And when they start assaulting ICE officers and preventing them from doing the job they're supposed to do,

00:12:40.380 yeah, then you've got to bring in the National Guard.

00:12:42.660 And as an aside, it cuts down on the crime going on.

00:12:46.960 If you have the National Guard whipping around Chicago, there's going to be less shootings.

00:12:54.860 I don't think some of these young gangbangers, as they call them, want to step out and start unloading a Glock with a switch if a soldier is next to him.

00:13:07.580 So that's a good little side effect.

00:13:09.860 And there are certain cities he sent the Guard to just for that purpose.

00:13:14.280 Memphis, for one.

00:13:17.100 Portland is another one with their protesters.

00:13:20.600 And the governors and mayors in these cities and states,

00:13:23.800 they speak out about it like it's this terrible thing.

00:13:27.920 Because there's less of a body count of your citizenry.

00:13:33.140 Less of your constituents are being murdered on every weekend.

00:13:38.840 And that's a problem.

00:13:40.700 You see that as a problem.

00:13:41.580 And then you escalate it to think that these troops, which are saving the lives of your citizens, are now going to swoop in and do something to keep Trump in office or keep the House and Senate from flipping when he's made no indications.

00:14:00.400 And again, who has made indications that they have affected the election through illegal means?

00:14:06.140 The Democrats.

00:14:08.000 More projection.

00:14:09.560 Ugh.

00:14:10.560 So much to talk about.

00:14:12.180 I see some calls up there.

00:15:09.620 Yes, Scott.

00:15:11.160 Anyway, you were talking about the celebrities and, you know,

00:15:15.400 they're spouting off their liberal beliefs.

00:15:17.380 It's funny how they constantly want to call conservatives Nazis.

00:15:22.320 Always.

00:15:22.640 But yet they act very Nazi-like with, if you don't think like they do, 0.68

00:15:28.940 they shun you. 0.61

00:15:30.320 Yeah, shun.

00:15:31.180 how many there's got shunning shunning would be awesome scott they go well beyond just shunning

00:15:43.640 your face they assault people they prevent them from letting their point be heard to a bunch of

00:15:49.620 other people that might want to hear it but they know better they know better right well and exactly

00:15:55.600 I mean, like and I don't understand how when they want to protest, but these eyes wherever they want to protest, I don't care what they're protesting.

00:16:03.020 And I don't understand how they they conceive that a protest should be where they can assault a police officer or a federal agent.

00:16:12.120 And that's part of protesting. Yeah, they think it's free speech.

00:16:15.620 They think it's it's protected speech to be able to go up, get in people's faces, police officers, block them from doing their job. 0.52

00:16:24.280 A big thing they're doing at these ICE facilities, these dumb liberal kids with their nose rings and they pull their vehicles up, a crowd of them will stand right in front of the exit where these ICE vehicles have to be able to go in and out to do their job. 0.99

00:16:42.560 And then when ICE grabs one of them, spins them around and drops them on their ass, they're beside themselves. 0.99

00:16:50.040 They can't figure out how this is allowed. 0.99

00:16:52.760 they start yelling police brutality you're assaulting that person no they're so used to

00:16:59.360 being able to get away with anything when a special man it comes to law enforcement and it

00:17:04.560 isn't happening now we're seeing a lot of these law enforcement agencies putting them on their 0.93

00:17:08.540 asses and it's wonderful glorious i love how like you said they they hate the constitution they hate 0.96

00:17:16.060 this country but the minute they get touched they want to scream you can't do this i'm an american

00:17:20.340 I've got right every right whenever you hear one of these dolts say I know my rights you can

00:17:26.760 guarantee they don't know a single one of their rights absolutely absolutely love it Scott thanks

00:17:34.040 for the call bro sir yeah yeah there uh there's a story a little later on in the show I'm going

00:17:40.760 to get to where once again these people that profess to know and and have such passion for

00:17:48.840 the subjects or the events or the people they're protesting about know absolutely nothing about it 0.97

00:17:57.300 they are completely ignorant and i bring up the um the gun control people all the time about this 0.85

00:18:03.560 i've never seen a group of people that want to infringe upon your second amendment right 0.99

00:18:10.080 with every breath they take and know nothing about the laws, the Constitution, the Second Amendment,

00:18:20.420 the basic mechanics of a gun, what makes an automatic and a semi-automatic,

00:18:27.200 what is an automatic pistol?

00:18:29.620 It's not the same as an automatic rifle.

00:18:31.880 They just hear things.

00:18:33.500 They know nothing about them.

00:18:35.080 And the second they're called on it, they get violent.

00:18:38.360 they don't want to hear from you anymore they'll smack the camera or phone or mic out of your hand

00:18:43.960 this is what we're dealing with they're like children worse yet they're like emotionally

00:18:51.900 disturbed children kids that you can't really get to by by sitting them down and talking to them

00:18:58.940 they need a timeout maybe shackles i don't know uh let's see we we got a little jane fonda here too

00:19:07.200 since we're doing Hollywood and Rob Reiner's take on the democracy.

00:19:11.740 We've got a year left, Rob says, of democracy.

00:19:14.220 Here's Jane Fonda. 1.00

00:19:16.420 She's spouting her entire life history has been just this liberal crap pouring out of her. 1.00

00:19:25.140 And here she is, not missing a beat. 0.99

00:19:28.820 She's got problems, of course, with Trump and MAGA.

00:19:31.300 Here's Jane.

00:19:32.080 Authoritarians, I'm learning, take about 18 to 22 months to consolidate power

00:19:37.940 This administration is moving fast, which means we have to move fast

00:19:42.960 We have to do everything we can to stop what's happening before it becomes the norm

00:19:50.360 Before it becomes institutionalized

00:19:52.980 And, you know, a lot of sectors of our society are being attacked

00:19:58.880 But as my father and Judy Garland and scores of other major stars in the 50s knew, freedom is in our bones.

00:20:09.120 Freedom of speech is essential to the storytellers as we are.

00:20:15.800 And we're going to fight.

00:20:17.220 And we're going to show we have the capacity because we're so creative to help with CNN, creative, nonviolent, non-cooperation.

00:20:28.880 against resistance and model that for the rest of the country.

00:20:33.020 This is a time, you know, when I accepted my Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award,

00:20:39.200 you know, I said, we'll watch documentaries of, you know, like the lunch counter sit-ins

00:20:45.240 in Mississippi and Tennessee and people being beaten, dogs attacking them, et cetera, and

00:20:53.040 wondered, would I have been as brave?

00:20:55.720 This is our documentary moment right now.

00:20:58.100 We don't need to ask ourselves anymore.

00:20:59.860 Are we going to be brave enough to stand up?

00:21:02.320 Because the only thing that can stop this is this massive movement of people, nonviolent and unified.

00:21:12.580 And that's what we're trying to encourage and inspire.

00:21:15.920 And we're starting with a well.

00:21:17.840 Thank you.

00:21:19.400 Nonviolent.

00:21:20.200 You've not shown nonviolence.

00:21:22.620 The left are the most violent people out there.

00:21:24.700 and just the whole how amazing they are.

00:21:28.640 We're the talented ones.

00:21:30.840 We're the ones that are creative.

00:21:33.600 And the dogs and the fire hoses, really?

00:21:37.120 Where were you, Jane?

00:21:38.860 Where were you when that was happening?

00:21:40.520 I don't remember seeing any old black and white videos of Jane Fonda

00:21:44.240 being pushed across the road with a fire hose, 0.99

00:21:48.560 with a German shepherd hanging off of that hot ass she had back then. 0.99

00:21:53.480 I don't remember that. 0.99

00:21:54.700 Barbarella, where you been? 0.99

00:21:58.340 Oh, they're just so entitled and the back patting.

00:22:03.320 They've been coddled and told how amazing they are for so long

00:22:09.840 for being able to get in front of a camera.

00:22:13.820 And again, like I said, they pop their head open,

00:22:17.080 dump a bunch of words that a talented writer perhaps came up with,

00:22:22.500 and then they spout their lines in front of a camera

00:22:26.540 and they actually believe they're brilliant

00:22:29.300 and that any topic they could come up with something much more profound

00:22:36.280 and interesting than any of you subhuman, regular, working people. 0.80

00:22:46.100 I'm Jane Fonda.

00:22:47.760 I'm Jane Fonda.

00:22:48.840 Go sit on another anti-aircraft gun at the enemy.

00:22:54.360 Oh, God.

00:22:55.940 Oh, if this was the Internet, not radio.

00:23:00.040 All right.

00:23:00.780 I'm angry already.

00:23:02.880 Back in seconds with more of the Anthony Cumia Show.

00:23:06.040 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

00:23:12.340 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

00:23:18.840 We continue with the Anthony Cumia Show on this wonderful Sunday evening.

00:23:23.660 And we got Norman.

00:23:25.380 Norman in Brooklyn.

00:23:27.300 What's up, Norman?

00:23:28.380 Yes, Anthony.

00:23:29.580 Okay, Rob Reiner.

00:23:31.300 Okay, Rob Reiner, Beverly Hills, spoiled son of Carl Reiner.

00:23:35.340 You know, here's the situation.

00:23:39.940 What I often say about Rob Reiner is he is what he is.

00:23:45.380 I mean, he's been a commie lib for his whole life.

00:23:50.780 I mean, he was fostered by Norman Lear, which I liked all in the family at the time.

00:23:58.780 But that show was basically designed to humiliate if you were a conservative.

00:24:05.440 Yeah, it really backfired.

00:24:08.140 It backfired on them because they thought it was going to be like people laughing at Archie.

00:24:13.280 and most of the people watching it, especially at the time,

00:24:17.180 they kind of liked it.

00:24:18.900 Archie would say certain things.

00:24:20.140 He'd be like, eh, he's got a point.

00:24:23.520 Right.

00:24:24.180 But, you know, every single one of them on that show was an absolute communist.

00:24:28.200 I mean, Sally Struthers, I don't think she doesn't, she won't comment

00:24:34.520 about what went on on that show.

00:24:37.540 I think politically she was different than my feeling.

00:24:42.680 different than Rob and different than

00:24:44.940 Carol O'Connor was a bleeding

00:24:46.980 heart liberal. I mean, there was definitely 1.00

00:24:49.100 like a communist.

00:24:51.340 So, you know, I look,

00:24:52.760 I don't, you know,

00:24:54.700 I'm seeing a severe

00:24:56.740 inferiority complex coming

00:24:59.040 from Rob Reiner

00:25:00.540 for the rest of

00:25:03.060 his life. I mean, you know, Carl

00:25:04.940 was superb and didn't

00:25:07.100 put it in your face, his politics,

00:25:09.140 which I'm sure were lefty. I'm sure.

00:25:10.600 You know, he didn't bang you over the head with it.

00:25:15.020 No, they knew back then that was a bad thing to do.

00:25:17.560 It was going to you were going to alienate way too much of your audience. 0.90

00:25:20.600 So they kept the yap shut, you know. 1.00

00:25:23.660 Yep. 0.94

00:25:24.500 Thank you, Norman.

00:25:26.300 Yeah, that's you know, now they they something happened.

00:25:31.100 I don't know when this was, who, whatever it was, but something happened and they really

00:25:36.740 thought people cared about what they had to say about politics and that's fine if you have an

00:25:42.560 opinion but the the horrible thing the terrible thing about hollywood is they want to tell you

00:25:51.140 how to live your life and tell you what your politics should be it's not just oh these are

00:25:57.860 my politics these are the candidates i support it's you're dangerous democracy's over in a year

00:26:05.940 And then hearing Jane Fonda talk about the waxing fantastic about the old days. 0.91

00:26:12.240 Judy Garland, she was a raging alcoholic drug addict. 0.86

00:26:18.580 We were supposed to listen to her?

00:26:20.900 And what were they protesting back then?

00:26:23.780 I don't remember hearing about it.

00:26:26.380 You'd see them maybe occasionally backing a candidate.

00:26:30.760 But nothing like we see now. 0.77

00:26:33.000 The entitlement, that they have an entitlement now to tell you how to live your life from behind some of the most secure, gated houses you'll ever see, treated like royalty, and you poor lowly serfs that work for a living, they're going to tell you how to live your life.

00:26:59.440 Thank you, no Jane Fonda and Rob Reiner and all the rest of them.

00:27:05.920 Here's another one, actually.

00:27:08.920 I think early on she probably was Clown of the Week a couple of times,

00:27:15.400 maybe, maybe once, maybe twice.

00:27:18.080 But she's got her own show online. 0.92

00:27:21.100 She was part of the MSNBC Cluster F for quite some time.

00:27:27.660 Your Clown of the Week this week. 1.00

00:27:30.440 Let's hear some horns and squeaky shoes. 0.74

00:27:35.680 Clown of the Week.

00:27:36.140 The Anthony Cumia Show presents the Clown of the Week.

00:27:41.600 Oh, yeah.

00:27:43.600 Joy Reid.

00:27:45.180 That's right.

00:27:46.740 Even when they throw them off of their propaganda networks,

00:27:53.320 like Don Lemon and Joy Reid, 0.99

00:27:56.920 They they're like cockroaches. 0.99

00:27:59.860 They're like the legendary cockroach. 0.99

00:28:03.480 If there's an atomic war, we've always heard the planet will still have these disgusting little creatures clickety clacking around when the lights are off. 0.65

00:28:15.160 And Joy Reid has gotten herself a little show.

00:28:17.840 She still does interviews with people.

00:28:19.960 And I found this funny.

00:28:22.320 It's not a long clip, but it says a lot about Joy Reid and her ilk.

00:28:28.200 This is what the horrible thing that Donald Trump and MAGA want America to be.

00:28:36.500 And listen to the hate she has for the idea of what she's talking about here. 0.58

00:28:43.720 Joy said, if you go back before the 20th century, there were no income taxes.

00:28:48.200 There were no regulations on business.

00:28:49.960 You could earn as much money as you want, leave 100% of it to your children with no taxes.

00:28:54.580 That's the world they want back.

00:28:56.100 And to get it back, they need society to change.

00:28:58.820 They need people to be less modern.

00:29:00.620 They need people to want fewer things.

00:29:04.200 Did you catch that?

00:29:06.140 I certainly hope you caught that.

00:29:10.080 Wow.

00:29:10.600 It really sounds like Trump and MAGA and the supporters want something called freedom?

00:29:19.960 autonomy the right to to pursue uh life liberty and happiness without the government

00:29:32.620 uh in your pocket you know there was a time there wasn't income taxes

00:29:38.360 oh people want to make a lot of money and leave it to their kids oh the gall joy the nerve

00:29:46.940 we should be shelling it out to you and your people perhaps paying reparations health care 0.68

00:29:56.260 for illegals how dare we want to go back to a time where we weren't being shaken down by the 0.68

00:30:04.640 united states government that if we didn't pay up like a store owner where the mafia came in and

00:30:13.420 said that's a nice picture window it'd be a shame if anything happened to it if we don't uh capitulate

00:30:20.420 to the shakedown we go to jail that's how income tax works i think everyone knows that

00:30:26.940 but joy reed her take on it is this is a terrible terrible thing to want to pursue

00:30:35.600 the old days what does he want yeah joy freedom freedom and and listen to how she's talking about

00:30:47.700 it with such disdain imagine wanting to make something of yourself to start a business

00:30:58.020 especially back then when so many

00:31:01.520 things were open

00:31:02.840 you could do

00:31:05.520 a lot more

00:31:07.500 because there wasn't government

00:31:09.340 restrictions and regulations

00:31:11.180 you could make something

00:31:13.440 of yourself and yes

00:31:15.540 you have family

00:31:17.120 and

00:31:18.540 you're at the tail end

00:31:21.600 of your life you look around

00:31:23.660 and go yeah I want to

00:31:25.620 leave the

00:31:27.300 the rewards of my hard work to my family so that they then could pursue their

00:31:36.240 dreams.

00:31:37.820 But no joy read and believe me,

00:31:41.700 she's not alone.

00:31:42.660 Oh, 1.00

00:31:43.120 she's an idiot, 1.00

00:31:44.340 but she is not a lonely idiot. 1.00

00:31:46.960 There are plenty of them that have this same take. 1.00

00:31:51.240 They want your money.

00:31:53.540 they want everything you worked hard for to go to them and the idea of passing it down

00:32:02.760 you know they always talk about generational wealth and how that's another uh dog whistle

00:32:08.740 for white supremacy and uh superiority and all this nonsense why because someone many years ago

00:32:17.760 a family's ancestor, decided to work hard, be innovative,

00:32:26.320 maybe you sprinkle a little luck on top of it,

00:32:29.580 taking risks, taking chances, especially in a new nation,

00:32:35.380 and against all odds become successful. 1.00

00:32:40.600 And all this moron sees is a payday, 1.00

00:32:45.540 is someone to milk 1.00

00:32:48.060 and to just carve their pound of flesh off of. 1.00

00:32:54.040 She's talking about keeping your wealth 1.00

00:32:57.900 and letting your family run the rest of your family history's relay race 0.99

00:33:08.220 with what you're handing them.

00:33:11.700 And that's awful.

00:33:13.600 That's a terrible thing. 1.00

00:33:15.540 the death tax that these idiots want is obscene your entire life you're paying these people taxes 1.00

00:33:25.840 and the tax money is not going to make your life better a lot of it especially under democrats are 1.00

00:33:31.600 going to these programs that do nothing for working people you are just an atm machine to them

00:33:38.040 and it's giving health care to illegals and all these other ridiculous programs that are wastes 0.86

00:33:44.980 of money, lining their pockets, kickbacks, whatever you want to call it, shipping it 0.78

00:33:50.260 overseas to God knows what.

00:33:53.780 And then, again, against all odds, you're able to pile up a little war chest.

00:34:01.260 You've done well.

00:34:02.860 You've utilized tax laws and done all these things to protect your money.

00:34:09.620 And you're looking forward.

00:34:11.440 You could leave this mortal coil with the thought that you've set your family up

00:34:16.980 just a little better because of your hard work and what you did in your life.

00:34:23.320 And Joy Reid and her ilk, the politicians, they come with a giant hand

00:34:31.200 and take half of it at least, half of it.

00:34:37.120 And your family's like, why?

00:34:38.580 That is so unjustified.

00:34:41.440 But you might, some mental patient might be able to justify it by saying,

00:34:46.720 well, it's an arrangement where you don't pay any taxes your whole life.

00:34:52.040 And then when you pass away, whatever you've accumulated,

00:34:56.240 you've got to give a portion of the government.

00:34:59.380 You might even be able to debate that somewhere.

00:35:02.720 But truth be told, you're paying taxes your entire life.

00:35:06.800 And they're always going up.

00:35:08.760 and then you die and you're not done yet joy and the regulations so you you're incapable

00:35:20.260 of starting that business 2025 is not like 1905 you're not just going well i got this great idea

00:35:30.640 Let me start up a factory and hire some people, whatever it is, and hit or miss.

00:35:39.060 Maybe it works, maybe it doesn't, but you gave it a try.

00:35:42.020 And if it does work, you pursue it, and it's successful.

00:35:47.980 You know what you would have to go through these days?

00:35:50.680 Do you know the roadblocks that the government puts in place through the restrictions to keep you from starting any type of business that might lead to not even wealth, just a little autonomy, being self-sufficient, not depending on the government?

00:36:15.560 And that's really the ticket, ain't it, folks?

00:36:20.160 That they do not want you to be self-sufficient.

00:36:23.800 This is another thing that's been proven time and time again.

00:36:27.940 The more restrictions that are put in place,

00:36:31.100 the harder it is for you to live your own life without needing the government.

00:36:37.100 And that is their biggest nightmare.

00:36:40.380 Ooh, their biggest nightmare.

00:36:41.600 You need to be shackled to them.

00:36:45.560 with an obligation to somehow hand them a stack of money every year,

00:36:50.540 or you lose your supposed freedom that you have.

00:36:56.200 You're shackled to the government, but that's your freedom.

00:36:59.120 Go ahead, run, do what you want.

00:37:00.660 Oh, that chain's a little short, isn't it?

00:37:04.460 Yeah.

00:37:05.820 And don't pay them their cut.

00:37:09.940 You go to jail.

00:37:11.620 That's how you're rewarded for success.

00:37:15.560 for hard work, for trying to set the table

00:37:19.300 for your kids and their kids.

00:37:22.500 And Joy Reid could not be happier about it.

00:37:27.200 And the prospect of somebody wanting more autonomy in this country,

00:37:31.740 more freedom, more of the concept that the government is the people.

00:37:40.400 We run them.

00:37:42.020 we tell them what we want

00:37:45.560 and they take the appropriate actions 1.00

00:37:48.500 that's gone it sounds stupid 1.00

00:37:51.440 it sounds naive 0.89

00:37:53.120 to say stuff like this in 2025

00:37:57.320 you know the government works for you

00:38:00.380 really can we take a look at that

00:38:04.640 they work for me I'm going to tell them I'm not giving them their yearly cut

00:38:08.800 of my money because they work for me

00:38:11.700 hey what are you doing you're cuffing no no i didn't do nothing why are you doing so much

00:38:17.720 that's where you end up this illusion of freedom uh it's still i guess better than anywhere else 0.55

00:38:29.260 in the world i don't want to black pill people on our american way and i understand taxes are

00:38:35.880 necessary to a point to keep infrastructure going and i think a lot more money is wasted 0.94

00:38:41.460 and thrown away and given to crap programs 0.92

00:38:44.560 that none of us want to be part of 0.94

00:38:46.440 instead in lieu of infrastructure

00:38:51.440 and things we all really want our money to go to.

00:38:56.580 You know, I was talking earlier about the essential workers

00:38:59.860 that still have to show up for work

00:39:01.920 even though there's a government shutdown.

00:39:04.520 Why are there any other people in the government

00:39:07.020 besides essential workers?

00:39:08.560 i don't want to pay non-essential workers the government shutdown is a great time to look

00:39:15.880 around and go okay essential workers have to go to work even if there's a shutdown and the rest

00:39:21.520 of the people are furloughed and even the people working might have to wait for their check until

00:39:25.680 the bill is signed that says government's back open but if things are working why do we have

00:39:32.560 these non-essential people working for the government oh because it's a big bloated money

00:39:38.740 grab and uh the second trump or anyone else really tries to do anything about it and say something to

00:39:47.960 the effect of hey we can cut a lot of jobs then he's the worst person in the world worst person 1.00

00:39:53.920 in the world i heard he's racist also because uh a lot of black women apparently work for the 0.86

00:40:00.620 government and they've been laying off a lot of uh people that work in the government apparently

00:40:06.220 black women took up a lot of jobs that were redundant not very necessary and when doge and

00:40:12.440 trump looked around they said maybe we can do without these uh i'm sorry that especially the 0.62

00:40:21.940 previous administration to make it look like they were doing so well that their jobs reports uh went

00:40:28.560 up every every month or every quarter sorry that those were useless government jobs again it works

00:40:37.460 the same as the border open the border up a bunch of illegals come in now trump has to figure out 0.59

00:40:43.120 a way to get them out of here well you hire a bunch of people for jobs that aren't needed

00:40:47.920 for the government the taxpayers are paying their pay so you're robbing peter to pay paul they're

00:40:53.880 not real productive private sector jobs.

00:40:57.060 And then when someone looks around and says,

00:40:58.720 hey, these are worthless, redundant jobs.

00:41:02.420 They aren't doing anything, and taxpayer money is going to it.

00:41:06.220 And you cut the jobs, and what are you? 0.91

00:41:08.440 Racist!

00:41:12.920 And again, Joy Reid. 1.00

00:41:17.020 There she is.

00:41:18.520 That clip, I loved it.

00:41:19.960 18 seconds, I believe that clip was,

00:41:22.080 and it said so much.

00:41:25.940 She, politicians that she supports,

00:41:31.020 they don't want you to keep your wealth.

00:41:35.800 They don't want you to have a position

00:41:37.520 where you can make wealth like that.

00:41:40.220 So they restrict you.

00:41:42.220 And then when you drop dead, they want your money.

00:41:46.700 They don't want it going to your family,

00:41:50.280 your kids their kids and whatnot and joy was ecstatic to get this word out to people she

00:41:59.900 believes it this isn't something i i would be embarrassed if i believed in that you know here's 0.99

00:42:06.820 what i believe but please don't let it out it's a real stupid um uh a stupid idea that i have 0.99

00:43:01.240 Bad Bunny

00:43:02.740 he said that we got four months or so

00:43:05.920 I don't know the Super Bowl I guess January

00:43:07.760 or February maybe and

00:43:09.660 he was on SNL and he said

00:43:12.320 you know you might not

00:43:14.280 understand what I just said he was speaking Spanish

00:43:16.120 but you have to learn 0.81

00:43:18.260 before the

00:43:20.260 Super Bowl halftime show because that's

00:43:22.240 what language is going to be speaking

00:43:23.600 so I'm just brushing up

00:43:25.160 I wouldn't want to upset the likes of

00:43:28.460 Bad Bunny

00:43:30.700 anyone supporting

00:43:34.000 the NFL at this point 0.99

00:43:57.780 I keep popping up.

00:43:59.100 I have no idea.

00:44:01.500 Let's go to Kevin.

00:44:04.760 Plunk down Kevin in Long Beach.

00:44:07.160 Long Beach, New York.

00:44:08.840 Kevin, what's up, my friend?

00:44:11.080 Hey, how are you, Ann?

00:44:12.100 That was a great rant before.

00:44:13.380 That was well done.

00:44:14.940 Thank you.

00:44:15.680 Thank you.

00:44:17.160 Appreciate it, my friend.

00:44:18.220 Getting back to Hollywood.

00:44:20.820 You know, in the old studio days, you know, the golden age of Hollywood.

00:44:25.100 Oh, yeah.

00:44:25.440 These guys, you know, these guys, their whole credo was, you know, Spencer, Tracy, Cagney, Bogart, all the bigs.

00:44:31.440 All they said was be on time, hit the set on time, hit your mark, learn your lines, and that's it, you know.

00:44:38.940 It wasn't a craft to these guys, you know.

00:44:42.680 And then they would go to, you know, and then during the war, you know, they'd sell war bonds and sell stuff for the country or even go and listen to the Army.

00:44:52.820 Enlist, yeah.

00:44:53.620 And look how far we've come, right?

00:44:55.080 Look how far now they're contributing to the fall of the country now, you know.

00:44:59.580 And it all happened during the 60s. 0.92

00:45:01.080 That was the big transition with the Vietnam War and everything else.

00:45:05.140 All those guys, Coppola and all of them, that's where it all changed, you know.

00:45:10.420 Yeah, the arts, the artsy people, the directors and whatnot,

00:45:16.180 going through the tumultuous 60s and then pumping out, you know, propaganda.

00:45:22.420 Hey, I like their movies.

00:45:23.800 I watch them.

00:45:25.080 But truth be told, you're right.

00:45:27.340 It's they started really pumping out this propaganda.

00:45:31.680 And look, the government was always pumping out propaganda.

00:45:34.900 Even those old films for war bonds and stuff are like, hey, we need the American people to contribute money for the war effort.

00:45:41.600 And the celebrities would get up there and talk about it.

00:45:44.140 But it was very American thing.

00:45:45.600 And it would might have been a little naive, but we were, you know, it was early in the 20th century. 0.98

00:45:52.180 now it's there's this you suck we're awesome you better listen to what we have to say 0.98

00:46:01.020 and uh regardless of what your life tells you and what your experiences tell you 1.00

00:46:06.180 uh forget about that you're not smart enough to make your own decisions uh jane fonda needs to

00:46:13.140 tell you or rob reiner is the expert to tell you how to live your life hanoi jane hanoi jane man

00:46:20.960 And Ryan has been at it a long time.

00:46:23.480 When he was a meathead, he was a liberal.

00:46:26.020 And then you ever see a movie, Wes Popper, when he was in court with the general

00:46:29.720 because he cut his foot off or cut his toe off?

00:46:32.500 I didn't see that one.

00:46:33.140 He had a small roll of that. 0.99

00:46:34.300 And he cut his toe off so he can't kill Vietnamese people anymore. 1.00

00:46:37.920 Oh, God. 0.99

00:46:38.720 And the guys on the stand going, I don't need a big toe to kill.

00:46:44.720 Kevin, thanks for the call, brother.

00:46:47.600 Appreciate it, man.

00:46:49.200 Yeah.

00:46:49.400 Oh, my God.

00:46:51.440 All right, let's see how much time we got.

00:46:53.300 Yeah, we might be able to fit this in. 0.93

00:46:55.820 Hillary Clinton, Hillary Rodham, sometimes they blurt it out.

00:47:03.540 Sometimes they just blurt it out, and it's plain to say they're not ashamed of it.

00:47:09.740 They don't know any better. 1.00

00:47:10.580 Let's listen to Hillary talk about social media and the need for regulation lest they lose control. 1.00

00:47:17.940 If the platforms, whether it's Facebook or Twitter X or Instagram or TikTok, whatever they are, if they don't moderate and monitor the content, we lose total control. 0.98

00:47:33.140 And it's not just the social and psychological effects.

00:47:36.640 It's real harm.

00:47:38.220 Who's we, windbag?

00:47:41.660 Who's this we?

00:47:42.900 We lose total control.

00:47:44.640 She said it.

00:47:46.160 She let it slip out, didn't she?

00:47:48.280 If we don't moderate these social media platforms, we lose control.

00:47:57.500 Well, I think she's right.

00:47:59.940 I'll be honest.

00:48:01.540 She is right.

00:48:03.440 But boy, that's not something that's good.

00:48:07.160 We don't want moderation to the point where they can control us.

00:48:13.340 Since Elon took over X, I've seen so many more people come back that were banned from the platform than have been getting thrown off of the platform.

00:48:25.140 There are a few, you know, they really go off and say some things that are against the terms of service.

00:48:32.240 A lot of it entails doxing people, making threats, terroristic threats.

00:48:38.120 But you could throw around some pretty offensive language, but, you know, there's no right.

00:48:44.960 You don't have a right to not be offended.

00:48:47.400 And I think it's fantastic.

00:48:49.300 And the last thing it needs is any type of censorship, moderation, because it always gets moderated to their end.

00:48:58.860 They're offended by what you're saying and not offensive language, just offended by what the ideology you're posting.

00:49:05.820 And Hillary Rodham, right there, we need to moderate this lest we lose control.

00:49:15.120 Who's we? 1.00

00:49:16.620 Who's the we that has control and doesn't want to lose it?

00:49:20.300 Back in moments.

00:49:21.780 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

00:49:28.060 A safer Ontario means more police and prosecutors making sure my car doesn't get stolen.

00:49:33.100 It means building new jails to keep criminals behind bars.

00:49:37.280 And it means there's no need to worry when I play at the park.

00:49:40.620 We're making every corner of Ontario safer to make all of Ontario safer.

00:49:45.260 That's how we protect Ontario.

00:49:47.280 For all of us.

00:49:49.360 Learn how at Ontario.ca slash Safer Ontario.

00:49:52.460 Paid for by the Government of Ontario.

00:49:58.000 It's the Anthony Cumia Show.

00:50:00.200 On the Red Apple Podcast Network.

00:50:03.100 Indeed it is the Anthony Cumia Show

00:50:06.360 Thank you so much for tuning in

00:50:08.380 And

00:50:09.720 Boy I am really liking

00:50:12.780 Pete Hedgeseth

00:50:14.060 And you can tell

00:50:15.600 By how much

00:50:17.140 The Democrats hate him

00:50:19.720 And are trying to downplay

00:50:22.420 Him being

00:50:24.800 The Secretary of War

00:50:26.560 Good god y'all

00:50:28.800 And I think it's great

00:50:30.920 They don't like him

00:50:33.700 He's not, what do they call it, like cordial, nice.

00:50:41.820 He's a nice guy, but as far as things go, like the military, that's his job.

00:50:48.640 Let's make the United States military the supreme fighting force.

00:50:54.200 Because, look, we haven't been.

00:50:55.740 I think there's such a drop-off to number two in the world that we've always been number one.

00:51:04.380 There isn't really a country, even China, and I'm not talking nukes or anything,

00:51:09.500 but even China looks and goes, eh, they're pretty formidable.

00:51:13.440 You know, United States military, pretty formidable.

00:51:17.440 But we look at what's happened over the past few years,

00:51:21.960 And especially under the four years of the Biden administration, we have seen an influx of just empty the the old Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey circus tent into the recruiting office.

00:51:38.320 That's what they've done.

00:51:39.960 Ladies and gentlemen, step right up. 1.00

00:51:43.860 See the bearded woman soldier. 1.00

00:51:46.320 That's what's happening or was happening. 0.57

00:51:50.140 And like everything else I've talked about, the border, Biden's mess,

00:51:55.400 Trump has to fix it.

00:51:56.580 Trump's the bad guy for fixing it.

00:51:58.820 And this is another thing, the United States military, they have screwed with it. 0.99

00:52:04.460 They've tried the social experiment of transgender and gay people 0.51

00:52:10.500 and women in combat roles and all this stuff, this feel-good experiment. 0.72

00:52:19.140 You know, like women in law enforcement. 0.71

00:52:21.120 That's great. 1.00

00:52:22.700 Sit in the precinct. 1.00

00:52:25.100 Put your ass in a seat. 1.00

00:52:26.360 Type up some stuff so a guy can be out on the street doing the job to the best of their ability. 1.00

00:52:35.000 And we've seen a military where, you know, who wouldn't be disgusted seeing what was put in leadership positions?

00:52:45.120 Leadership positions in the military.

00:52:49.140 freak show

00:52:50.540 incompetence

00:52:52.440 diversity equity and inclusion

00:52:54.500 I've seen

00:52:57.380 videos of

00:52:58.160 sailors on submarines or

00:53:00.960 aircraft carriers

00:53:01.920 and it's a guy

00:53:04.000 supposedly with

00:53:06.400 rouge and lipstick and eyeliner

00:53:08.740 sashaying around

00:53:12.420 a ship

00:53:13.400 talking about how awesome they are

00:53:16.840 there's no place for that

00:53:19.140 The military isn't an experiment. It's been battle-tested over time. And I think the people in charge, the real people in charge, not the mental institution we had, they understand what makes a strong military.

00:53:36.060 And this diversity for the sake of diversity nonsense ain't it.

00:53:44.840 If something ends up being diverse because you looked for the best people involved,

00:53:50.200 the best people you could possibly get for that job,

00:53:53.760 and then when you find the best people, get them all in one place and look around and go,

00:53:57.800 wow, that is a diverse group of people.

00:54:01.440 I'm glad we picked the best people that we could. 0.99

00:54:06.060 that's one thing, and that's rare.

00:54:09.900 But if you're just saying we need a room full of diverse-looking people,

00:54:15.200 regardless of how well or not well they perform their duties,

00:54:21.160 that's diversity just for diversity's sake, and it doesn't work.

00:54:26.800 And throwing in things that are bad for morale,

00:54:29.940 that prevent the military from being battle-ready, that's a crime.

00:54:35.760 That is a crime.

00:54:38.600 So Hedgeseth has been speaking of late, and I love it.

00:54:42.420 Secretary of War.

00:54:45.480 Here he is.

00:54:46.460 This clip is him talking.

00:54:47.780 He got a bunch of generals and admirals together in a room,

00:54:51.600 called them from wherever they were so there would be no mistake.

00:54:56.180 Oh, you didn't get the memo?

00:54:57.960 Oh, you weren't on the Zoom meeting?

00:55:00.560 He wanted them all there looking at him on a stage as he said,

00:55:04.740 we are done with that this is what we're doing now and if you're not aboard goodbye and there's

00:55:14.180 no saying i missed the memo that's why he brought them all together one place to go here's our

00:55:21.640 mission now so here's pete talking about how they are done with the woke military and i couldn't be

00:55:29.360 happier no more identity months dei offices dudes in dresses i love that one no more climate change

00:55:39.060 worship no more division distraction or gender delusions no more debris as i said before and

00:55:47.120 we'll say again we are done with that yep you dropped a little s bomb there done with it

00:55:54.460 And that's great. It's such plain English. I don't understand how any American of right mind doesn't get that and go, yeah, I like that. I understood every word he said. This wasn't some political jargon. He wasn't trying to pad it so as not to offend anybody. 0.97

00:56:17.380 this is what was happening

00:56:19.720 this is what's happening now

00:56:21.940 under my leadership

00:56:23.280 and we're done with all that

00:56:25.660 here's another clip

00:56:27.860 talking about physical fitness

00:56:29.620 we've seen the military

00:56:32.020 just go down the tubes

00:56:33.960 and we see this again on a lot of

00:56:35.920 police departments

00:56:36.760 you got these obese

00:56:39.320 people

00:56:40.900 sometimes again more times than not 1.00

00:56:43.580 women and they can't do 1.00

00:56:45.720 their job. They're too fat to do the job. Sorry. And physical fitness should always be part of 1.00

00:56:51.600 the military. You look at some of the other armies, big armies around the world. You don't

00:56:57.900 see this. You just don't see this amount of of unfit soldiers. So he had something to say about

00:57:05.680 that, too. Listen, with physical fitness and appearance, if the secretary of war can do

00:57:12.760 regular hard PT, so can every member of our joint force. Frankly, it's tiring to look out at combat

00:57:21.260 formations or really any formation and see fat troops. Likewise, it's completely unacceptable

00:57:27.780 to see fat generals and admirals in the halls of the Pentagon and leading commands around the

00:57:32.540 country and the world. It's a bad look. It is bad and it's not who we are. So whether you're 0.75

00:57:38.260 airborne ranger or a chairborne ranger a brand new private or a four-star general you need to

00:57:44.300 meet the height and weight standards and pass your pt test and as the chairman said yes there

00:57:49.320 is no pt test but today at my direction every member of the joint force at every rank is

00:57:55.900 required to take a pt test twice a year awesome as well as meet height and weight requirements

00:58:01.660 twice a year every year of service beautiful also today at my direction every warrior across

00:58:10.480 our joint force is required to do pt every duty day should be common sense i mean most units do

00:58:17.000 that already yeah this is a guy who isn't all talk no action do as i say not as i do when he

00:58:26.640 meets with the troops he does pt with them and uh earlier uh he was at the um because trump was at

00:58:36.680 the 250th birthday for the navy i believe that was and they were having a football game and

00:58:42.500 uh hedge seth got down there and set some kind of a record for the most people doing push-ups at

00:58:49.720 one time and he's right down there on his face this guy isn't all talk but uh they just don't

00:58:56.400 understand it they don't understand this type of thinking they don't see the military it's not a

00:59:02.040 democracy the military it isn't this isn't a you know what do you think what do you think

00:59:07.460 this is an organization that needs to be run um through through strength and disciplined

00:59:14.560 a lot of discipline in there people look at old clips of what it used to be like for

00:59:21.960 new recruits to come in

00:59:23.900 in front of drill instructors

00:59:25.560 and they're horrified. They can't imagine

00:59:28.040 that they were treated that

00:59:29.900 way and they change

00:59:32.140 things and you look around and go

00:59:33.960 oh God, it's just

00:59:35.380 it's

00:59:36.620 not the way it's supposed to be.

00:59:40.560 Well, Sunny, Sunny

00:59:41.780 from The View, she, being the 0.99

00:59:43.960 military expert she is, she couldn't

00:59:45.920 understand what

00:59:47.360 Pete Hedgeseth was just saying in the clips

00:59:50.060 We just heard. So listen to us, Sonny, and we'll try to figure out what this idiot was thinking. 1.00

00:59:57.120 I'm actually really befuddled by why he did that. 0.99

01:00:00.840 The optics were terrible, meaning all of our top military brass are all in one place,

01:00:06.340 and we spent $6 million to get them there.

01:00:08.880 Money well spent.

01:00:09.500 That didn't make a lot of sense to me.

01:00:10.800 It also didn't make a lot of sense to me that he was saying that he was going to toughen physical standards

01:00:16.340 and review the anti-hazing policy by sort of implementing a hazing policy.

01:00:22.860 And then also he said he was going to return to the highest male standard

01:00:29.360 for combat positions because the troops were fat.

01:00:33.560 I don't understand how that was supposed to be an uplifting message for our military.

01:00:38.500 He was referring to Colonel Sanders.

01:00:40.880 Good one.

01:00:42.020 It was really a bizarre thing.

01:00:44.260 He started talking about woke DEI policies. By the way, there are no gender quotas in the military.

01:00:50.280 By the way, he fired more than a dozen military leaders, many of them people of color and women.

01:00:55.880 He fired the chairman of the Joint Chief of Staff, General Charles Brown Jr., who is African-American.

01:01:00.900 He fired the first woman to command the Navy, Admiral Lisa Franchetti.

01:01:04.980 I just I don't understand the sort of hypocrisy of firing these people, having all these people meet together and then denigrating that.

01:01:14.760 Did you look at it? 0.94

01:01:15.700 They look like they're looking at him like he has two heads.

01:01:18.560 No, they weren't.

01:01:20.240 See, they actually believe these these hens, these cackling hens believe that his speech needs to be uplifting.

01:01:30.800 Does everyone need to be uplifted?

01:01:33.020 If you've looked at an organization like the United States military over the past few years and said, my God, what has happened to this fighting mechanism?

01:01:44.220 We need to change things.

01:01:47.000 Why should that be uplifting?

01:01:49.940 No, he got him in one room and said, this, this is what we're doing now.

01:01:55.600 Forget about that.

01:01:57.200 Now we're doing this.

01:01:59.500 They got a problem with physical fitness and physical training?

01:02:04.380 That's a bad thing?

01:02:06.760 Oh, he talks about hazing and then talks about bringing back hazing.

01:02:11.060 The hazing she was talking about was him saying,

01:02:14.680 hey, how about they do physical training every day?

01:02:16.700 How about they have to get down and do physical fitness training

01:02:22.660 and pass tests every six months?

01:02:25.740 And they look at it like that's a bad thing.

01:02:28.820 And that the generals and admirals are looking at him going,

01:02:31.240 I don't understand what this guy's talking about.

01:02:35.000 How that show goes on and on is beyond me.

01:02:38.960 All right, don't go anywhere.

01:02:40.080 Back in seconds more of the Anthony Cumia Show.

01:02:49.340 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:02:53.920 it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple podcast network the anthony cumia show thank

01:03:04.960 you for your support uh sandra sandra wants to talk about standards in the military from jersey

01:03:12.580 of course sandra how are you uh dear i'm doing okay i have a little stomach ache my daughter

01:03:18.420 have cooked in it right now i don't feel good but i don't think it's from her cooking it's okay

01:03:23.260 but you know two things i wanted to comment it on anthony one i remember in high school when you

01:03:29.220 tried out for the twirlers or the cheerleaders they had a very strict i did here no if you

01:03:35.160 try oh i thought you said you i didn't think that secret got out no i became a twirler but that's

01:03:41.760 not the point but if you went home for the summer and you came came back in the fall and you gained

01:03:46.400 a lot of weight you weren't on the team anymore right there are certain standards that you have

01:03:51.800 to keep and the same with pete he's correct you don't want heavyweight people in the in in the

01:03:57.560 in the thing you know because they're not going to perform effectively sandra you're absolutely

01:04:01.420 right when those twirlers take the front lines against the chinese army i think we'd be in a 0.62

01:04:06.540 lot of trouble if they were a little rotund so continue dear but okay and then the other thought 0.96

01:04:12.220 that i had was um donald trump is a businessman we all know it he's brilliant and and i think

01:04:18.540 he's secretly happy that we have this shutdown because this is a chance for him to eliminate a

01:04:24.020 lot of jobs that we really don't need and i think that's great and i think it's almost like

01:04:29.160 continuation of elon musk in in the white house this is great and then i want i want to ask one

01:04:35.740 thing sure i would like to see the senators that are so quick to have this shutdown let their

01:04:41.940 salaries suffer as well i don't see why they no i know never happened never happened sandra

01:04:48.660 they protect their own asses we know this we've seen it and uh they care nothing about the real 0.61

01:04:55.760 issues wants and needs of the american people thank you dear calling in from all the way over 0.99

01:05:01.280 They're in New Jersey.

01:05:04.820 There was another one of these Senate here.

01:05:06.540 I don't even know when these things happen anymore.

01:05:09.020 There's so many of them.

01:05:10.100 Most of them don't amount to anything.

01:05:12.100 But this is Senator Hawley.

01:05:14.660 And this is something I was talking about earlier.

01:05:16.500 These people that profess to know everything about what they're so passionate about, yet they don't.

01:05:23.200 They don't know anything.

01:05:25.060 And here's Senator Hawley destroying.

01:05:27.820 I didn't even know this was a thing.

01:05:28.960 Joe Biden had a director of gun violence prevention. 0.99

01:05:34.780 Can you imagine these damn cities before Trump is trying what he's doing? 0.97

01:05:41.020 He's trying his damnedest to get whatever law enforcement into these cities to prevent the carnage that happens every week. 0.99

01:05:48.960 And they're fighting him tooth and nail.

01:05:51.060 But under Biden, there was this director of gun violence prevention.

01:05:55.100 Must have been doing a bang up job.

01:05:57.000 like there was no gun violence going on and uh he was sitting there in front of senator holly

01:06:02.360 who brought up this guy's own report to him and he doesn't even know what's in his own report

01:06:10.500 this is how uh they they don't know what they're being paid to know it's astounding listen to this

01:06:20.260 ...recognize that law enforcement is a part of the ecosystem the entire time.

01:06:24.620 This is so typical of what the Democrats do now.

01:06:27.080 After your policies have transparently failed and led to the deaths of millions of Americans,

01:06:32.200 now you say you've never heard of defunding the police.

01:06:33.800 Your own report recommends it on page after page after page.

01:06:38.720 Let me ask about something else you say.

01:06:40.360 Here's what you say we ought to invest in.

01:06:41.940 Instead of funding the police, here's what we ought to invest in.

01:06:45.640 We need to invest in programs that acknowledge the need for safe space initiatives led by lesbian, gay, bisexual, two-spirit, trans, and gender non-conforming people.

01:06:58.160 What's two-spirit?

01:07:00.340 Well, look, I don't know.

01:07:02.000 You guys are pulling some interesting quotes here.

01:07:04.460 This is from your report.

01:07:05.700 It's your report.

01:07:06.680 If you look at the report, the focus is on investing in violence intervention, outreach workers, victim services.

01:07:11.300 You say that you shouldn't invest in the police, but we ought to invest in two-spirit community programs that acknowledge two-spirit.

01:07:19.100 Look, we are not going to discriminate against any nonprofit that wants to help us prevent violence in our community.

01:07:24.340 What is a two-spirit?

01:07:25.280 You say don't fund the police, but do fund programs that create safe spaces for two-spirit people.

01:07:31.060 I just want to know.

01:07:32.120 I don't know what that is.

01:07:32.880 I have no idea what that is.

01:07:34.020 Well, honestly, I'm not completely aware of the language or the spirit of how that was written.

01:07:39.600 but what I'm telling you is that what we what is a two-spirit individual I mean really I'm

01:07:44.300 saying this is your policy this is your policymaker's playbook you are the witness called

01:07:49.700 by the democrats on this committee so I assume you reflect their views well you don't want to 0.94

01:07:53.460 fund the police you want to fund safe spaces for two-spirit individuals what is a two-spirit

01:07:58.660 person I feel like I'm looking at a two-faced individual because oh no sir you're looking at

01:08:03.680 somebody who's reading your own words and I'd like to hear an answer here's the answer the answer is

01:08:08.520 you don't have any solutions you want to invest in gobbledygook and take away money from police

01:08:13.200 officers who actually keep our community safe and when you're called on the record you deny it

01:08:17.160 oh oh i could watch those clips over and over again the times they are a changing this is you

01:08:29.800 know they've gotten away with this crap for how long this guy supposedly wrote this report 0.98

01:08:38.000 You know damn well he didn't even look at it. 0.97

01:08:41.920 Some staffer wrote this up, and it was submitted as this guy's report.

01:08:48.620 He didn't even look at it.

01:08:50.660 And it's probably a young intern with piercings all over the place.

01:08:54.720 And then goes, hey, two-spirit.

01:08:59.480 They give the speech to a friend maybe.

01:09:02.660 Here's my speech for the guy that's going to be the head of director of gun violence protection under Biden.

01:09:11.560 Do you think this is good?

01:09:13.200 Well, why did you just put LGBTQ and this and marginalized?

01:09:16.780 You should put like two spirit in there.

01:09:18.540 Oh, yeah.

01:09:19.880 And then it gets out.

01:09:21.740 And Senator Hawley's like, what the hell does that even mean?

01:09:25.680 And he's like, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not Ed Norton.

01:09:28.680 He didn't know what he's doing, what it's in his own report.

01:09:32.740 And to see him getting called out like this is great.

01:09:36.260 And look, I know we fast forward, nothing happens to these people.

01:09:41.120 They're able to just lie, make stuff up, not do their jobs. 1.00

01:09:47.940 And nothing's going to happen to this idiot. 1.00

01:09:50.480 He'll go on to something else. 1.00

01:09:51.900 But it is fun to watch them squirm.

01:09:55.200 And then he got all defensive at the end.

01:09:57.600 What is two-spirit?

01:09:58.580 I don't know, but I'm looking at a two-faced mother. 0.94

01:10:02.240 He got all flustered. 0.97

01:10:05.620 Got to keep your cool, brah.

01:10:07.580 Keep your cool.

01:10:09.100 That was awesome.

01:10:11.000 Senator Hawley, he's great.

01:10:13.960 Director of gun violence prevention and all we're seeing is continued gun violence.

01:10:21.180 Unless, of course, Trump directs ICE, the Border Patrol, and the National Guard to back them up into these cities.

01:10:30.620 And then we see a drastic decrease in violent crime and murders.

01:10:36.280 And then you'll hear Governor Pritzker and Mayor Johnson screaming like they're coming in there to kill people

01:10:46.120 instead of preventing the murder of these citizens in these states and cities run by the likes of Pritzker and Johnson.

01:10:58.160 Pritzker and Johnson.

01:10:59.540 It's like a diaper company.

01:11:01.720 But when we come back, we'll play a little bit of Pritzker.

01:11:05.600 He's bitching about the National Guard in Chicago.

01:11:08.360 And then something else, what Chicago's doing, they may stop doing traffic stops, the Chicago PD.

01:11:18.920 This is beyond any reason, but they're doing it.

01:11:25.800 All right, stick around.

01:11:26.820 Don't go anywhere.

01:11:27.480 More of the show.

01:11:29.240 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:11:35.040 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:11:41.380 How are we doing?

01:11:42.200 Good?

01:11:43.140 I certainly hope so.

01:11:45.500 Anthony Cumia Show.

01:11:47.020 And as promised, let me go to Pritzker here talking about the National Guard in Chicago.

01:11:52.720 This wouldn't make sense to anybody in any other time period besides right now.

01:12:01.840 Anyone would look at this and go, why the hell is the governor of Illinois so adamant, so dead set against helping his state?

01:12:14.480 And when it comes to the city of Chicago, which has an incredible rate of violent crime, why wouldn't you want federal help to curtail some of this violent crime going on in in your state?

01:12:31.240 Anyone looking at this from years and years ago would go, yeah, that makes sense.

01:12:36.900 No, they want federal funding.

01:12:40.000 See, that's what they want.

01:12:41.460 Oh, the feds want to help you with your crime. 0.97

01:12:44.480 oh yeah but we just want their money and then we're going to spend it on incredibly useless 0.99

01:12:50.360 stupid programs that won't do anything for crime illinois i mean it came out a couple of weeks ago 0.99

01:12:57.800 they have this um program where they take violent gang members i swear they pay them money and then 1.00

01:13:10.220 And if something pops off with a gang, they send the gang member over there to, you know, talk it out.

01:13:18.200 Let's rap, man.

01:13:21.220 And we've already had a couple of these people on this program, these gang members, involved in murder and other violence.

01:13:31.620 And they think this is the solution.

01:13:34.880 Hey, feds, keep sending us taxpayer money.

01:13:37.640 We'll use it as we please.

01:13:39.020 We'll hand it out.

01:13:39.840 We'll get a kick back to us. 0.87

01:13:41.220 We'll do favors for cronies.

01:13:43.860 But we don't want your actual help.

01:13:46.980 It's like when you pass a homeless person on the street and they're asking for money and you have a sandwich.

01:13:53.100 It's all wrapped up nice.

01:13:54.400 And you go, here, you hungry?

01:13:56.220 And they go, get out of here.

01:13:57.080 I want money.

01:13:58.120 Oh, OK.

01:13:59.240 That's exactly what they're doing in Illinois and some of these other states and cities like Chicago.

01:14:05.940 So Pritzker's all P.O.'d about the National Guard and ICE and the Border Patrol coming into his state.

01:14:15.720 So let's hear what his major malfunction is.

01:14:19.900 For Donald Trump and the MAGAs in Congress, this is not about fighting crime or about public safety.

01:14:27.280 This is about sowing fear and intimidation and division among Americans.

01:14:31.400 It was about creating a pretext to send armed military troops into our communities.

01:14:40.300 This is about consolidating power in Donald Trump's hands.

01:14:44.680 Listen to how they speak.

01:14:45.920 What he plans to do with that power now or during the 2026 elections should worry all of us.

01:14:53.760 When you add to that the Trump administration's effort to label as dangerous free speech critical of him, White House senior staff calling the Democratic Party fascist, the Trump appointed FCC chair threatening to revoke broadcast licenses and the approval of a merger in order to silence late night comedians, Trump's threats to jail political opponents.

01:15:23.760 You cannot call this anything except an attack on the Constitution of the United States.

01:15:31.080 Attack.

01:15:31.860 They always call it attack, a threat, imminent threat, existential threat.

01:15:38.500 He's talking about Trump doing things that they've already done.

01:15:46.220 Political opponents trying to jail them.

01:15:48.540 You try to put Trump in prison.

01:15:50.100 the number one leading at the time he was the number one leading opposition candidate for

01:15:57.300 president of the united states the only thing standing in the way of uh senile joe biden and

01:16:04.320 camilla uh harris the only thing and they knew that he had the support and was going to win the

01:16:13.720 election he knew they all they all knew so what did they do they tried to imprison him

01:16:19.000 on some ridiculous charge that mar-a-lago was worth a lot less than he had submitted to a bank

01:16:27.180 for a loan that he paid in a timely fashion with interest the bank had no problem with it

01:16:33.280 it was just a kangaroo court where the the one political party tried to jail

01:16:41.220 the guy they knew was going to win.

01:16:44.180 This is all old news.

01:16:45.140 I know this.

01:16:46.560 It's not that I don't respect the listeners of these stations.

01:16:51.240 I just reiterate, because that's exactly what happened.

01:16:55.800 And Pritzker talking about, you know,

01:16:58.140 this isn't about keeping people safe.

01:17:01.580 It's political, is it?

01:17:04.340 What did he do in D.C.?

01:17:06.440 Has D.C. been taken over by the military?

01:17:09.920 is it some dystopian future uh dictatorship or did trump go in there with some uh national

01:17:19.320 guardsmen ice border patrol and working in conjunction with dc police and make sure

01:17:25.880 that those streets weren't littered with bodies at night especially on the weekends and it worked

01:17:33.440 and they don't want that these people you could argue want bloody dead young bodies

01:17:44.260 littering their streets that to them is more palatable than to say wow Donald Trump did

01:17:52.380 something that actually worked it was good for our city they'd rather pile up the bodies

01:17:59.380 and go, yeah, this is much better than having to admit

01:18:04.660 that what Trump suggested and enacted actually worked.

01:18:10.100 They're animals. 0.96

01:18:12.420 These politicians are animals. 0.99

01:18:15.760 They do not care about you. 0.99

01:18:19.380 And I'm not even saying Trump cares about you.

01:18:21.680 I'm not the naive guy that, first of all, I don't need that.

01:18:25.140 They don't seem to understand that MAGA, Trump supporters, Republicans, conservatives, we don't put such importance on our politicians caring about us.

01:18:41.620 We just want them to do their job, what they were elected to do so that we could live our lives with the least involvement and interference from the government.

01:18:56.380 That's it.

01:18:57.500 I don't need a hug from Donald J. Trump.

01:19:02.020 They need their politicians to talk about it because you look at the Thames, look at their speeches.

01:19:07.920 They're just packed with we care.

01:19:10.720 Let me tell you a little story about a woman that, and it's because we care.

01:19:18.120 We want people to, no, they don't. 1.00

01:19:21.840 It's a lie.

01:19:22.880 They don't really care.

01:19:24.060 Let's be honest here.

01:19:26.120 But it's the constituents, the supporters that need them to care.

01:19:32.720 They need hugs, a little pat on the head. 1.00

01:19:36.660 It's pathetic. 1.00

01:19:38.460 Do your jobs. 0.97

01:19:39.960 Set the table for Americans that are motivated, that have some intelligence, maybe a few new ideas, and they just want to pursue that without you chasing them with your hands in their pocket, tripping them up, putting an obstacle course in front of them with government regulations.

01:20:05.800 That's all we want.

01:20:08.020 I don't need a hug.

01:20:09.960 that's fine we don't need to be uh cared for by our politicians oh god so then this brings me to

01:20:20.560 this other story which is uh chicago under the great mayor johnson boy you people in chicago

01:20:30.800 almost almost as disappointing as my fellow uh or previously fellow new yorkers

01:20:38.780 ready to vote in a communist Muslim as your mayor. 0.99

01:20:42.980 Good luck. 1.00

01:20:44.180 It's going to happen.

01:20:45.060 I hate the thought of it.

01:20:46.440 I love Curtis.

01:20:47.660 I'll back him till election night when it's all over and go,

01:20:52.500 and I'll still have his back.

01:20:54.260 But truth be told, you dummies are going to vote in this Mandani,

01:20:58.080 and he's going to further destroy what Adams and de Blasio had already destroyed.

01:21:05.440 But Chicago's got Mayor Johnson. 1.00

01:21:08.780 I thought Lori Lightfoot was bad. 0.99

01:21:10.720 Ah, people.

01:21:13.180 The civilian panel that oversees the Chicago Police Department is pressing ahead with plans to limit the kinds of traffic stops officers can make,

01:21:21.240 even though its own polling found that most Chicagoans do not want these restrictions.

01:21:28.180 So every time a Chicago Police Department officer pulls over someone in Chicago, it must be racist.

01:21:38.780 It must be illegal.

01:21:41.340 What, you got a blinker out?

01:21:42.920 Doesn't matter.

01:21:43.700 It's illegal.

01:21:44.720 They don't think anyone should be pulled over by the Chicago Police Department for anything.

01:21:51.540 I don't know.

01:21:53.160 I remember getting pulled over a lot, especially when I was a kid.

01:21:57.300 I didn't have enough money to replace that headlight or the taillight or get an inspection.

01:22:03.700 And I didn't complain.

01:22:05.280 I didn't like it, but I knew damn well I was the one that was wrong.

01:22:09.680 And now it's going to cost me a little more than it would have to just get the headlight replaced or get my car inspected.

01:22:16.420 Well, they look into it and have to figure out that it must be racist.

01:22:22.100 And they don't want Chicago PD pulling people over anymore.

01:22:26.720 The Community Commission for Public Safety and Accountability, which develops CPD policies,

01:22:33.280 He says, weighing proposals to scale back pretextual stops, pretextual stops.

01:22:40.100 When officers pull drivers over for minor infractions as a way to investigate more serious crimes.

01:22:47.240 It's called driving dirty.

01:22:50.140 It's called driving dirty.

01:22:53.320 It's when we when we watch a video of some guy hauling a few kilos of coke in his trunk and he's going from Florida up to New York.

01:23:03.280 on route, on 95, Interstate 95,

01:23:07.300 and he's doing 90 miles an hour.

01:23:11.560 What do we say? 1.00

01:23:13.360 What an idiot. 1.00

01:23:15.280 I would be circling my car 80 times 1.00

01:23:19.040 with every light on.

01:23:21.320 I would look if my car's blowing smoke.

01:23:24.240 I would make sure my license,

01:23:26.580 everything is in order.

01:23:29.100 Because that pretextual stop

01:23:33.180 they happen

01:23:35.420 and you got coke in the trunk 0.98

01:23:38.600 you dummy 0.97

01:23:39.200 let's see 0.95

01:23:44.140 the US Supreme Court has said for decades

01:23:46.600 that such stops are legal

01:23:48.740 but commissioners have made

01:23:50.500 clear they want to curb the use

01:23:52.280 in Chicago

01:23:53.920 because Chicago is known for its

01:23:56.360 peaceful non-violent

01:23:57.760 non-criminal

01:24:00.120 behavior

01:24:01.280 whatever the commission decides the rules will not touch other agencies so cook county sheriffs

01:24:07.840 out there can still pull people over um here's an example on september 14th deputies stopped a man

01:24:15.060 in river north for driving with an expired registration they ended up arresting the driver

01:24:21.280 40 year old terrell washington who served a 16 year sentence for murder in 2024

01:24:28.440 why because according to sheriff's office he had a loaded handgun in the car judge and tara

01:24:37.460 rivera ordered him detained five days later deputies stopped the chevy impala with expired

01:24:44.900 tags the driver jason harden alleged allegedly had a loaded gun in the car too but judge

01:24:51.100 Denied prosecutors' request to keep them locked up.

01:24:58.040 Harding was released pending trial.

01:25:00.480 So it all depends on the judge.

01:25:03.380 And now they want to stop these preemptive stops.

01:25:07.720 It's not like, here's the issue with this.

01:25:11.180 They're not just randomly pulling cars over.

01:25:15.360 They're not looking through.

01:25:16.780 First of all, you can't look through the black paint they put on windows and call it tint.

01:25:23.680 But when they pull someone over for expired tags or equipment violations or whatever it might be,

01:25:32.480 that gives them carte blanche to proceed with some type of traffic stop,

01:25:41.860 asking the people to step out of the vehicle if they smell weed, whatever it is.

01:25:46.780 i'm all for it if it's getting violent criminals off the street everyone should be for it this

01:25:53.060 isn't a a rights issue you're not dragging people out of the car randomly searching people

01:26:00.440 this this helps the citizens they want this

01:26:06.880 for now chicago police department is still conducting traffic stops and they've been

01:26:13.800 fruitful, too. Here's another

01:26:15.760 one. September 20th, officers spotted a car

01:26:17.620 parked in a fire lane

01:26:18.860 when they tried to pull the driver over.

01:26:21.840 He sped off, running red lights. Out of

01:26:23.740 safety concern, cops called off the

01:26:25.720 chase. They do this a lot now.

01:26:27.600 But tracked him through the city's surveillance cameras

01:26:29.860 until the car turned up,

01:26:32.380 returned to the same block.

01:26:33.920 Oh, smart move.

01:26:36.120 Officers arrested 39-year-old

01:26:37.760 Walter Diggs as he

01:26:39.820 walked away from the vehicle. They found a handgun

01:26:41.720 with a machine gun conversion a switch come on man get your lingo right that's a glock with a

01:26:48.940 switch and a drum magazine outside the car i love these things they think they're going to be so

01:26:55.000 badass turning a glock into full automatic with a hundred round drum mag sticking out of the bottom

01:27:01.080 it it jams after two rounds there you go stovepipe good luck good luck clearing that

01:27:09.420 before one of your cronies ices you on the street.

01:27:12.900 Look at me.

01:27:13.280 I know my street lingo.

01:27:14.580 Don't pull a rod on the heat.

01:27:18.620 A stolen car charge, whatever.

01:27:22.880 Yeah, there you go.

01:27:25.320 That's what's going on in Chicago

01:27:27.280 as far as them having a problem with law enforcement.

01:27:34.160 If it was some town in Maine and the local Andy Griffith sheriff was shaking people down or something, maybe, maybe then.

01:27:49.960 But you are looking at a major metropolitan city here.

01:27:54.540 This is a major city that is rife with violent crime.

01:27:58.680 And the leadership, term used very loosely, of Chicago has a problem with anyone outside of their little political paradise that they have going for themselves, anyone that wants to actually do something, actually look for a solution to the problem.

01:28:23.520 They chase them out, and then they change the rules and the laws to make it even more dangerous.

01:28:33.040 They have a police department, Chicago PD.

01:28:36.660 I don't need the National Guard.

01:28:38.260 We don't need your ICE agents and stuff.

01:28:40.900 Oh, so you're going to give the Chicago Police Department more latitude to do what they need to do to cut down on gang violence?

01:28:48.260 No.

01:28:48.820 No, no, we're actually going to make them stop performing traffic stops and finding these violent felons that are driving these cars dirty.

01:29:01.880 And it gives us a great excuse to pull them over and see what they're up to and talk to them and look around the car inside from outside with a flashlight.

01:29:11.580 and perhaps see something that would make it possible

01:29:16.060 to take this violent person off the street.

01:29:19.440 Yeah, no, we can't have that.

01:29:21.260 We can't have that.

01:29:22.200 And we don't want Trump helping.

01:29:24.340 Stack them up.

01:29:26.080 Stack up the bodies.

01:29:28.160 That's what they want.

01:29:31.440 The caring Democrats, that's what they want.

01:29:36.060 Unbelievable.

01:29:38.800 Unfriggin' believable.

01:29:39.860 But that's, you know, and then he's got, again, again, I would be hiding.

01:29:48.080 If I was Governor Pritzker, I would be hiding because I'd have to imagine my policies are so pissing off the residents of Illinois that I can't show my face.

01:30:03.800 This is embarrassing.

01:30:04.900 I'm doing the exact opposite of what they voted me into office to do.

01:30:12.580 But they're so full of themselves.

01:30:16.200 They have such a lack of ability for self-evaluation and to read the room

01:30:23.540 that he thinks he could get up in front of a podium and say what we just heard him say.

01:30:29.280 And all the citizens, all the citizens are going to go, yeah, yes, that guy's awesome.

01:30:37.540 Instead of going, wait, wait, we just want to stop the murder.

01:30:42.880 What are you doing about it?

01:30:44.440 Well, stopping police from pulling people over.

01:30:46.420 All right, that sounds reasonable.

01:30:52.340 Don't laugh, New York.

01:30:54.180 One New Yorker out there laughing.

01:30:56.000 I don't want to hear it.

01:30:56.960 Mayor Zoran Mamdani.

01:30:59.640 That's all I got to say about that.

01:31:48.960 The Anthony Cumia Show.

01:31:51.740 Thank you tons for supporting this very program.

01:31:57.820 You know, we're talking about hypocrisy.

01:32:02.860 A lot of that going on in the world, especially in the political world.

01:32:10.140 But this one, boy, this one has swung both ways.

01:32:14.880 And I've commented on it on other programs and in my personal life.

01:32:19.260 Of course, I'm speaking about the Riyadh Comedy Festival in Saudi Arabia.

01:32:28.260 And during my time with the Opie and Anthony show, whether on regular radio, we were on WNEW in New York,

01:32:37.480 and then Sirius XM Satellite Radio, my various podcasts over the course of the years,

01:32:42.720 being guests on people's shows.

01:32:45.600 I have interacted with a lot of comics.

01:32:50.660 And some of them, to this day, remain very good friends of mine.

01:32:54.100 Others, not so much.

01:32:56.620 And it's astounding that these comics,

01:33:04.680 and especially the ones that were invited to do this comedy festival

01:33:09.120 in Saudi Arabia most of them are liberals most comics are liberals I've seen some conservative

01:33:18.100 comics and they're very funny but most comics are liberal it's like any other show business

01:33:27.160 platform even though it's stand-up comedy let's be real how high up the showbiz ladder are they

01:33:33.760 There's three or four of them over the course of history that have made bank-packed arenas.

01:33:40.540 There's some of them doing it right now.

01:33:43.620 But, you know, most of them, they travel around like some vagabond across the country.

01:33:52.900 Discount planes, discount hotels, playing two or three nights in East Alabama.

01:33:59.440 And, you know, they get up on stage.

01:34:02.480 hopefully they're very funny many of them are i've especially the ones i've hung out with over

01:34:07.240 the years but there's this liberal lefty lilt that they have over the course of time i've also

01:34:14.780 noticed that they are very open to people goofing on their ideology they like to play down when they 0.99

01:34:25.000 uh have some idea about politics they go i'm just an idiot i'm a dummy what do i know i was 0.95

01:34:32.340 just talking about this it's political i don't get much politics i and then they goof on it make

01:34:37.360 jokes which is great great i have many comic friends they're very funny uh very cool to hang

01:34:42.720 out with this is something completely different and now for something completely different uh

01:34:50.440 this comedy festival festival is in saudi arabia not really known to be the most humanitarian

01:34:58.700 people in country so we we kind of have to look and go you really want to do this

01:35:08.800 you really now want to take everything you've said on stage all this liberal stuff and

01:35:14.280 Over the past four years during the cancel culture where conservatives were being called racist and Nazis and homophobic and gay phobic and canceled.

01:35:26.540 A lot of comedy clubs would not book a conservative comic.

01:35:29.140 I was canceled over that period of time for doing a radio show and a podcast and I address things like race, sexuality, and I was summarily bounced.

01:35:40.380 a lot of these comics that uh call themselves free thinkers they shunned me to this day there

01:35:47.020 are some comics that will not talk to me i will not talk to them and that's just the way it is

01:35:51.580 uh but then when you turn around and go to a country like saudi arabia whose humanitarian

01:35:57.720 record ain't that good just ain't that good and you uh you kind of go that's hypocritical of you 0.96

01:36:08.660 that is unbelievably hypocritical of you 0.98

01:36:12.220 to take that bag full of money 0.99

01:36:15.160 and that's really what it's all about

01:36:17.720 if Saudi Arabia was offering Bill Burr

01:36:21.720 what he could make doing a comedy club

01:36:24.880 or even an arena, not an arena

01:36:27.180 a theater or what have you

01:36:29.620 in the United States, he wouldn't take it

01:36:33.020 they offered these guys a boatload of money

01:36:37.300 and then you got to ask yourself why why would they offer so much money just give me a nice

01:36:43.640 first class ticket on emirates get a little sweet across the atlantic why did they offer

01:36:49.980 so much money because they knew they'd have to they were buying something now these comics sell

01:36:57.720 their act they go to various places they do their set and they get paid they get paid at a rate

01:37:05.800 that they feel is worth what they're giving.

01:37:09.460 Here's my act.

01:37:11.340 I get up, I'll make people laugh.

01:37:14.900 But they're giving them a lot more

01:37:16.880 because they're selling a lot more than just their act.

01:37:21.380 I'm not going to get too crazy by saying they're selling their soul,

01:37:24.860 but they're selling their ability

01:37:28.180 to ever again get up on a stage 1.00

01:37:32.160 and pontificate about women's rights. 0.56

01:37:35.800 slavery homophobia transphobia you forfeited that they bought that from you

01:37:44.560 they put money in your hand and you gave them your ability to speak out and

01:37:52.620 criticize people that you deem racist homophobic and and whatnot that's what

01:37:59.720 they paid for your act is part of that sure the lovely people of Saudi Arabia

01:38:05.560 I wanted to hear your jokes about airplanes and whatnot.

01:38:09.660 But you sold something a lot more than just your act.

01:38:14.560 You gave them a piece of you, a piece of you that had the ability

01:38:20.080 to get up in front of people or in your private life,

01:38:24.680 call out certain people for being an ist or a phobe in some way, shape, or form. 0.74

01:38:33.580 Enjoy. Enjoy your money. 0.67

01:38:35.460 Hope you're happy about that.

01:38:37.360 We'll do a little more of this.

01:38:38.580 I know David Cross had said something about it.

01:38:40.580 Back in moments.

01:38:41.440 Stick around.

01:38:42.520 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:38:48.520 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

01:38:54.560 Oh, yeah.

01:38:55.400 We've stuck up our 10 to 11 o'clock hour.

01:38:59.800 Thanks for hanging in there, people.

01:39:01.800 800-848-9222

01:39:05.900 if you want to contribute

01:39:07.160 talk, have a little conversation

01:39:09.800 about what's going on. We were just

01:39:11.080 before the break talking about the

01:39:13.800 Riyadh Comedy Festival

01:39:15.800 in Saudi Arabia

01:39:17.820 and the comics

01:39:19.780 you know, a bunch of these comics

01:39:21.580 taking a bag full of

01:39:23.900 money for

01:39:25.520 going over there and

01:39:27.060 plying their wares

01:39:29.360 getting up on a stage and

01:39:31.800 Just sharing a laugh with a country that is actually on the top ten list of worst countries as far as modern-day slavery goes.

01:39:46.180 Yeah, sure.

01:39:47.740 They signed a law.

01:39:51.920 I don't even know if it's a law, a policy.

01:39:54.660 Even I am not above the policy.

01:39:56.460 A policy about slavery back in 69, and then there have been other things over the course of the years

01:40:03.900 where they said they've abolished slavery. 0.65

01:40:06.440 Saudi Arabia is still a country that has an incredible amount of modern-day slavery. 0.99

01:40:17.640 Top 10. Top 10 in the world. 1.00

01:40:20.520 So these comics that want a virtue signal, whether on stage or off, they've sold that.

01:40:32.620 They've sold their ability.

01:40:34.840 It's the only reason they were giving more money than they've ever gotten for just one set.

01:40:40.500 All of them.

01:40:41.460 The lowest comedians, the most unknown ones on this list, got at least $375,000.

01:40:50.520 The big names, Bill Burr, Louis C.K., Dave Chappelle,

01:40:55.780 $1.5 million.

01:40:57.980 And believe me, they're not standing on a line

01:41:02.380 waiting for boarding of a Southwest flight.

01:41:06.200 There's an Airbus A380 decked out with suites, bedrooms.

01:41:14.100 That's how they're getting over to Saudi Arabia.

01:41:17.200 And then they get a bag full of money.

01:41:19.380 they come back here and bill burr for one he's on his uh podcast just talking about how

01:41:26.440 hey they're all like us not i it's we're all the same dude we just i get up there they're

01:41:33.900 all laughing it's great oh is it is it all great you got your little clown shoes on

01:41:41.480 you got your little jester hat on and you're you're dancing around telling your jokes 1.00

01:41:47.040 making these Saudi sheikhs and oil people laugh? 1.00

01:41:53.500 Good for you. Good for you. 1.00

01:41:56.700 And look, I don't want this to turn into a who-did-9-11 conversation.

01:42:02.540 I do that on my internet show, podcast, conversations with people, social media.

01:42:10.740 This isn't about that.

01:42:12.720 Let's just go with the original story. 0.73

01:42:15.900 Osama bin Laden, we got some Saudis, came over here, learned how to fly planes.

01:42:22.660 Who knows how involved the Saudis were?

01:42:25.840 But that's the official story that the majority of people believe.

01:42:31.340 And I would have to assume that Pete Davidson, comic Pete Davidson, who was on SNL for many years,

01:42:38.360 known more for banging incredibly attractive starlets

01:42:43.760 over the course of the years.

01:42:46.100 But his father, God rest his soul,

01:42:51.420 was killed on 9-11, a firefighter.

01:42:56.320 And he was responding, of course,

01:42:59.040 as so many other firefighters did,

01:43:01.100 and lost his life on 9-11.

01:43:03.960 and um pete has talked about this many times he's used it in his act which is you know great i guess

01:43:14.660 it's therapeutic but to take money from the country that you're not sure even if you you're

01:43:24.060 still just like well maybe i think it was this i think it was the massad and the cia it's israel

01:43:31.940 it's Saudi it's this one

01:43:34.500 it's that one

01:43:35.100 even if you add an inkling

01:43:38.880 that

01:43:40.440 Saudi Arabia in some way was

01:43:42.540 involved I mean the vast

01:43:44.400 majority of the hijackers were

01:43:46.340 Saudi citizens

01:43:47.280 and

01:43:49.740 and then you go over there

01:43:52.500 to tell a few jokes

01:43:54.480 and look at these

01:43:56.440 people

01:43:56.920 in the eye and make them

01:44:00.580 you know laugh

01:44:01.520 that's what pete davidson does because they handed you a sack of cash does pete davidson really need

01:44:11.800 i don't know i haven't checked his net worth recently but uh i gotta imagine he's doing

01:44:18.160 pretty good i would think if you got 10 kids and they're living in a little shack and you're 1.00

01:44:24.240 starving and Saudis

01:44:26.240 offer you some money, you go, ah, a kid's gotta eat. 0.99

01:44:29.960 But

01:44:30.240 Bill Burr,

01:44:32.860 Dave Chappelle, well, Dave Chappelle 0.96

01:44:34.200 is Muslim, right? 0.97

01:44:38.800 Chappelle, Louis C.K.

01:44:41.380 I've known Louis

01:44:42.200 over the course of the years. I like Louis. I think he's very

01:44:44.260 funny. He's

01:44:46.240 not like one of these crazy staunch 0.98

01:44:48.220 liberals. He does have some ideology 0.98

01:44:50.000 that I look at and I read and I go,

01:44:52.040 hmm. He

01:44:53.940 laughed uh during the first trump election uh i had received a check because i was uh on an episode

01:45:01.760 of louis and i got a royalty check and it was like i don't know 30 bucks something like that

01:45:08.580 and i took pictures of it and then contributed 30 bucks to the trump campaign because louis was all

01:45:16.660 over social media saying how we shouldn't vote for trump and and he laughed he sent a text that

01:45:22.300 He thought it was hilariously funny that I contributed the royalties from Louis to the Trump campaign.

01:45:27.960 So I would assume he has got a sense of humor about that.

01:45:31.200 But Louis doesn't need money.

01:45:33.980 Oh, sure, he did that thing in front of a couple of gals, a couple of young ladies in a hotel room.

01:45:40.720 But it didn't cancel him to the point where he's broke.

01:45:43.540 The guy's made plenty of money with his career over the course of the years.

01:45:47.980 What was this allure?

01:45:49.900 What was this necessity for comics that are set to go over there and perform for a bag of money, much more than you get paid for doing a gig, at the cost of some type of reputation?

01:46:08.400 Or like I said, your ability to speak out about certain social issues.

01:46:12.980 That's gone.

01:46:14.720 You want to hear Bill Burr mouth off about racism?

01:46:17.620 or homophobia

01:46:20.980 when you know what 1.00

01:46:23.940 Saudi Arabians do to 1.00

01:46:26.340 women and gays 1.00

01:46:29.040 oh my god, don't be kidding me 1.00

01:46:32.360 anyway, there are a couple of good eggs

01:46:34.840 David Cross, look

01:46:37.600 I do not agree with a lot of what David Cross says

01:46:41.560 he is a bleeding heart liberal

01:46:43.600 he's disavowed some of my best friends

01:46:47.340 who worked with him in the past,

01:46:49.720 Gavin McInnes being one of them.

01:46:52.260 And, you know, he's not one of these guys

01:46:54.880 that can listen to reason

01:46:58.360 when it comes to a lot of social issues,

01:47:01.060 especially if they're conservative.

01:47:03.800 So, David Cross slams Bill Burr

01:47:07.420 and more comedians performing

01:47:08.680 at the Riyadh Comedy Festival.

01:47:10.540 I am disgusted, he says.

01:47:12.400 How can any of us take you seriously again?

01:47:15.860 There's the ticket.

01:47:18.940 It's exactly what I was saying.

01:47:20.840 Comedian David Cross released a fiery statement on his website Monday

01:47:24.620 condemning the comedians who agreed to perform at Saudi Arabia's Riyadh Comedy Festival.

01:47:29.980 Quote, I am disgusted and deeply disappointed in this whole gross thing, Cross wrote,

01:47:35.320 that people I admire with unarguable talent would condone this totalitarian fiefdom for what?

01:47:43.560 a fourth house a boat more sneakers this is good stuff he continued we can never again take

01:47:54.800 seriously anything these comedians complain about unless it's complaining that we don't support

01:47:59.860 enough torture mass execution of journalists and lgbtq peace activists here in the states

01:48:06.600 or that we don't terrorize enough americans by flying planes into our buildings a little wordy

01:48:12.880 But I get it, David.

01:48:14.460 I get it.

01:48:17.020 Cross went on to call out specific names from the lineup, including comedy giants like Dave Chappelle, Louis C.K., and Bill Burr.

01:48:24.000 Clearly, you guys don't give a, and then he uses the dreaded S-word for excrement, about the rest of us and what we think.

01:48:34.240 But how can any of us take any of you seriously ever again, Cross added? 0.59

01:48:38.180 All of your bitching about cancel culture and freedom of speech and all that.

01:48:42.880 done you don't get to talk about it ever again by now we've all seen the contracts you have to sign

01:48:50.740 had to sign yeah that got leaked and we saw how much money they were making and what they could

01:48:55.420 or couldn't talk about these are your you know your first amendment guys right yeah these are

01:49:03.280 your comics the first line of defense man against totalitarian dictatorship man we're the

01:49:12.700 comics the mr show star isn't the first comedian to take issue with the riyadh comedy festival

01:49:20.180 mark maron another guy i must say i do not agree with but he makes a valid point here

01:49:27.280 um he recently took to his wtf podcast to slam those participating in the event i mean

01:49:33.880 how do you even promote that from the folks that brought you 9-11 two weeks of laughter in the

01:49:39.760 desert don't miss it he said i mean the same guys that are going to pay them are the same guys that

01:49:46.080 paid the guy to bone saw jamal khashoggi and put him in an effing suitcase but don't let that stop

01:49:53.460 the yucks it's going to be a good time so mark maron had an issue and um you know i've had great

01:50:01.380 respect for what shane gillis does very funny he was canceled by snl for making some asian jokes

01:50:10.480 impersonating an asian accent i believe that was his huge crime against humanity shane gillis also

01:50:17.280 disavowed the festival saying on his secret podcast that he turned down an invitation and a 0.87

01:50:22.340 significant bag for an appearance fee he said i took a principal stand you don't 9-11 your friends

01:50:29.580 And other U.S. comedians set to appear at the Riyadh Comedy Festival include Kevin Hart, Pete Davidson, Russell Peters, Gabriel Iglesias, Wayne Brady, Jeff Ross, Tom Segura, and Hannibal Buress.

01:50:45.940 So there you go.

01:50:48.520 Everyone has their price, people.

01:50:50.800 Don't let anyone fool you.

01:50:52.920 literally a guy whose father died on 9-11 going to entertain the very people

01:51:02.280 the very country where the hijackers that flew those planes into the trade center that collapsed

01:51:09.080 and killed his dad uh big enough bag of money pete's there back in a few stick around

01:51:16.220 it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple podcast network

01:51:21.240 it's the anthony cumia show on the red apple podcast network

01:51:28.100 the anthony cumia show let's go to a larry here in staten island larry larry what's up man

01:51:35.660 i'm the boss i'm the boss i'm the boss

01:51:39.600 defeating its own purpose these are the jewels from the belt 0.95

01:51:44.100 how you doing my brother great great listen uh i want to comment about this clown 0.97

01:51:53.700 um on domi oh yeah 32 years old useless uh i just want to touch on some i just want your

01:52:02.660 your thoughts about this here's a man who said uh the greatest mayor of the city of new york

01:52:10.800 was Brother Blasio.

01:52:13.040 Now, I'm going to make a point in there, Brother Anthony.

01:52:17.060 This guy is going to pick this guy to be the first deputy mayor of the city of New York

01:52:23.120 or another high-level spot.

01:52:26.040 Oh, I didn't even think of that.

01:52:27.620 You think de Blasio is going to be part of his administration?

01:52:31.860 Absolutely.

01:52:32.800 Somebody's got to do more.

01:52:35.000 So your comments on that, my thoughts.

01:52:38.740 Thank you, Larry.

01:52:39.580 Wow. I didn't even see that coming.

01:52:43.740 I didn't think you could get a two-fisted holding, your two-fisted version of the worst mayors New York could possibly get.

01:52:55.180 You get Mimdani, who I believe is going to make de Blasio look like a great mayor in history.

01:53:03.320 but both of them working together oh i don't think we can do that new york will elect

01:53:12.180 zora and memdani they will i i have no faith i we've seen what new york state is capable of

01:53:20.960 and the city is a microcosm of new york it's the war it's worse than new york state

01:53:26.960 And you've got Hochul as your governor, Chuck Schumer as your senator who won't leave.

01:53:33.660 You keep voting him back in, irregardless of what he's doing to the state.

01:53:38.820 Oh, Jesus Christ.

01:53:40.240 But, yeah, I was going to talk about Madani.

01:53:43.680 You're not getting off the hook, New York, so easily. 0.92

01:53:46.420 I wasn't just going to crap on Chicago.

01:53:50.840 Madani, he wants to raise $10 billion.

01:53:55.980 Yes, you heard right, people, the big B word, billion, from increasing taxes.

01:54:01.960 He needs $10 billion in his war chest in New York City so that he won't have to listen to anything Donald Trump says.

01:54:12.140 He doesn't like the idea that the federal government can stop him from doing things,

01:54:18.840 say that if you proceed with that, we will cut off federal funding to this.

01:54:24.140 So he wants to get $10 billion just raising people's taxes.

01:54:34.080 They didn't even go that far with me, and I left. 0.99

01:54:37.220 I left the damn state. 0.99

01:54:40.140 Now the New York City residents have to deal with a mayor who wants to squeeze you for $10 billion. 0.99

01:54:49.080 Listen to this reasoning by the great Mr. Zoran Mamdani.

01:54:54.140 What I've proposed is that we raise $10 billion to pay for our entire economic agenda and

01:55:02.220 start to Trump-proof our city because we know he'll use federal funding as leverage over

01:55:06.200 this city.

01:55:07.200 Yeah.

01:55:08.200 And we will do so in two key ways.

01:55:09.200 The first is to match the state's top corporate tax rate to that of New Jersey.

01:55:13.400 We are at 7.25%, they're at 11.5%.

01:55:17.040 Corporations can pay it over there, they can pay it over here.

01:55:19.080 And the beauty of it is that it doesn't just apply to corporations headquartered in New

01:55:22.960 York City. Because when you say this, people will say, well, they're going to go to Florida.

01:55:26.300 Wherever you are headquartered, as long as you do business in the state of New York,

01:55:29.820 you are taxable for that corporate tax. We're talking about corporations that are making

01:55:33.120 millions of dollars, not in revenue, but in profit. And the second is taxing the top 1%

01:55:38.200 of New Yorkers. We're talking about people who make a million dollars a year or more,

01:55:41.760 taxing them just by a flat 2% tax increase. And I know if 50 Cent is listening, he's not

01:55:45.460 going to be happy about this. He tends to not like this tax policy, but I want to be very clear.

01:55:49.340 This is about $20,000 a year.

01:55:50.960 It's a rounding error.

01:55:52.240 And all of these things together, they make every New Yorker's life better,

01:55:55.340 including those who are actually getting taxed.

01:55:58.420 Can you even?

01:56:00.860 So they're going to tax corporations what they tax them in Jersey,

01:56:06.340 because if you could pay it in Jersey, you could pay it here in Manhattan.

01:56:09.940 No.

01:56:11.220 No. 0.99

01:56:12.260 They could jack their taxes up in Jersey because everything else is dirt cheap.

01:56:17.900 Companies running a business out of Jersey,

01:56:22.060 what do you think they're paying for rent?

01:56:25.300 What do you think they're paying for materials?

01:56:28.280 New York, they have to balance the tax burden

01:56:32.960 with the other financial burdens.

01:56:36.340 So now you're taking that, you're like,

01:56:37.940 well, we're a business, we're in New York City.

01:56:40.700 Everything costs an astronomical amount of money more

01:56:44.480 than in any other tri-state area.

01:56:49.680 And now you're just going to jack the taxes up.

01:56:54.280 There's no benefit.

01:56:57.220 There's got to be a compromise, some kind of a balance.

01:56:59.880 It's like, well, I am paying more in taxes, but I'm in Jersey.

01:57:07.260 Everything else is cheaper.

01:57:08.580 I did the math, and even paying more taxes, I still make out because it's not New York City.

01:57:15.580 Now he wants to go, hey, it's the same, right?

01:57:18.960 You're paying three times, four times in some cases,

01:57:22.840 what you're paying to rent office space in New York City than you would in Jersey.

01:57:29.280 But who cares? Just jack the taxes up anyway.

01:57:32.160 And then when him or anyone else starts talking about individual income of a million dollars, one million dollars, it's New York City.

01:57:48.220 And look, I'm not trying to make it sound like a million dollars isn't a lot of money.

01:57:53.440 There are people that will never see that, never make that.

01:57:56.760 It's an astounding sounding amount of money, but everything's relative.

01:58:02.160 In New York City, a million dollars a year, it's not that much.

01:58:09.460 It really isn't that much money for New York.

01:58:14.440 And you blow through a lot of that million before they start coming with their handout,

01:58:20.420 looking for your tax money.

01:58:24.880 So to call that the wealthy in New York, sure, if you're in Oklahoma, I'm living large.

01:58:32.160 New York City, not so much.

01:58:35.360 And he wants to fleece you to the tune of $10 billion

01:58:38.740 to make him impervious to any restrictions

01:58:42.660 Trump, the federal government,

01:58:45.400 might put on his Democrat, liberal, communist policies

01:58:50.520 that he wants to spend this $10 billion on.

01:58:58.920 Let me see.

01:58:59.860 Yeah, I'd probably wait on the next clip.

01:59:03.740 He does another thing where it's a couple of clips, actually.

01:59:07.280 He talks about violence being a social construct, which I don't even know what that means.

01:59:13.240 And then he blatantly gets racist by saying he'll tax white neighborhoods.

01:59:18.740 New York, New York City, I don't know what to tell you.

01:59:22.820 I don't know what to tell you.

01:59:24.000 I'm so gravely disappointed in New Yorkers.

01:59:27.560 And I hear from a lot of people that go, hey, me.

01:59:29.860 I'm voting, I did the, how did it get to this point?

01:59:35.400 Someone's responded, it wasn't just the left, it's not just liberals, you're there too,

01:59:41.540 I know a lot of Republicans, a lot of conservatives, independents, I know a lot of them in New

01:59:46.960 York City, why haven't they been active in the electoral process over the course of the

01:59:53.600 years why has it become a republicans don't even have to leave the house on election day we know

02:00:00.400 what's going to happen they're going to elect the democrat so you don't go out you don't talk to

02:00:07.840 your buddies you don't do anything you just go well i guess we're stuck with this guy and then

02:00:12.540 when i say i'm disappointed in new york you go hey it ain't me i don't vote for the guy well you don't 0.99

02:00:17.440 vote for anyone i've said it before if every republican got off their ass on election day 0.97

02:00:30.700 sliwa you would have mayor curtis sliwa but you won't get off your ass so it is your fault 1.00

02:00:38.160 it is that's why we don't have governor lee zeldin governor hochel because you didn't get 1.00

02:01:51.880 Podcast Network. The Anthony Cumia Show. And we're talking about Zoran Mamdani because

02:02:00.520 I'm stunned. I'm stunned. This is a thing in New York. You know, we see what happens

02:02:10.280 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. 0.96

02:02:13.780 They ship a bunch of people from Somalia in.

02:02:19.020 The politicians know they have to really cater to Somalis.

02:02:24.780 So you watch them speak, like Jacob Frey, the mayor of Minneapolis, 0.97

02:02:30.340 and, of course, Ilhan Omar, and all the nonsense we get out of that state.

02:02:37.780 but new york you know i know it's a very diverse city but i know a lot of people there that

02:02:48.380 shouldn't have let this happen should not have let this happen you slacked off you weren't

02:02:55.980 paying attention the blasio wasn't bad enough then adams and no one was trying to build something 0.78

02:03:05.060 build a movement, and go, what are we doing, New York City? 0.99

02:03:10.300 And now you have a communist Muslim that is, aside from a miracle happening, 0.99

02:03:22.160 is going to be the mayor in New York City. 1.00

02:03:26.360 So we were talking about the $10 billion in taxes he wants to raise.

02:03:30.560 And then you hear the other little part of that?

02:03:32.400 Oh, what happens, Zoran, if the people leave your taxpaying base,

02:03:41.700 the companies that operate in New York, what if they go to Florida?

02:03:46.720 Well, we'll just tax them anyway.

02:03:49.500 He's going to chase you down.

02:03:52.720 I don't know.

02:03:53.860 How does that bode for me?

02:03:55.760 I do a radio show here.

02:03:57.740 It's based in New York City, but I'm in South Carolina.

02:04:00.560 i get paid am i gonna have to kick up to the mob boss zoran mandani up in new york

02:04:11.160 because i left the state i'm still gonna have to kick up and this thing of oz goes round and round

02:04:20.180 there's no getting out of this you gotta kick upstairs i don't want to but that's his thing

02:04:29.380 He's actually saying, well, I've thought about it.

02:04:32.340 If they leave, we'll just tax them anyway, no matter where they go.

02:04:36.640 They'll hunt you down.

02:04:39.080 It's the mafia.

02:04:40.980 It's the mob.

02:04:43.600 So he says he's going to tax people.

02:04:46.100 Now, will this be across the board?

02:04:50.380 Are we looking at tax as being something more diversity, equity, and inclusive?

02:04:56.920 Or is he looking to tax one group of people just a little more than another?

02:05:04.440 Well, thank God he actually answered this.

02:05:08.380 Here's Zoran Mamdani saying where he's going to really start poking around and sniffing to try to figure out who he wants to tax.

02:05:18.240 Zoran.

02:05:18.920 And realize there's a policy proposal that says your plan, and I'm going to quote it for folks, is to shift the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners in the outer boroughs to more expensive homes in richer and whiter neighborhoods.

02:05:33.060 Explain why you are bringing race into your tax proposal.

02:05:37.440 That is just a description of what we see right now.

02:05:40.600 It's not driven by race.

02:05:41.740 It's more of an assessment of what neighborhoods are being undertaxed versus overtaxed.

02:05:45.100 So no plans to change that language on your website.

02:05:48.260 The focus here is to actually ensure a fair property tax system.

02:05:52.800 The use of that language is just an assessment of the neighborhood.

02:05:55.700 Oh, it's just an assessment of the neighborhood saying white. 0.97

02:06:00.960 You know, I've heard them bitch and complain when people say, well, why are there more policemen? 0.99

02:06:09.160 Why is there more police activity in black neighborhoods? 0.99

02:06:13.380 And then you try to say, well, they're going where the crime is. 0.98

02:06:16.700 and oh my goodness gracious will you be called out as a horrible ku klux klan racist 0.70

02:06:24.960 and then something like this they go well it's the language we're just saying the white 0.61

02:06:31.820 neighborhoods are the more wealthy and the ones we should tax why how do you say that

02:06:37.480 why isn't he being called out for being racist why did he have to bring skin color into this

02:06:46.340 He said wealthier neighborhoods, more prosperous, I guess you could say that, a greater tax burden.

02:06:55.420 But he had to say white neighborhoods.

02:06:57.760 It's on his website. 0.84

02:06:58.720 And I'll tell you why. 0.52

02:07:00.100 Because he wants people that he knows will vote for him to read that, to let them know, yeah, I'm not a fan of white people either. 0.84

02:07:14.720 Vote for me. 0.58

02:07:15.820 I'm not a fan of white people.

02:07:18.220 That's pretty much what Zorhan's running with here. 1.00

02:07:21.520 Why else would that be part of the language?

02:07:26.280 Why? 0.67

02:07:27.820 White politicians, white police brass, 0.99

02:07:34.060 they're walking on eggshells to try their damnedest 0.99

02:07:38.100 not to bring skin color into statistics

02:07:41.540 or anything they're saying about where they're patrolling.

02:07:44.360 They go, well, there's more crime in this area.

02:07:47.860 They don't go, well, we're going to make sure we send more cars into the black areas.

02:07:52.980 They don't say it like that.

02:07:54.820 We know what they're saying.

02:07:56.320 But they don't say the actual thing.

02:08:00.200 Well, Zoran feels he's got no issues with saying white neighborhoods. 0.96

02:08:05.860 Hey, we're going to tax these white people. 0.99

02:08:07.520 Don't you worry about it. 1.00

02:08:09.140 Then we'll pass everything on to the people of color in New York. 0.93

02:08:14.360 And again, what are you doing, New York? 0.95

02:08:18.680 What have you done?

02:08:19.660 What have you wrought?

02:08:21.180 What have you wrought?

02:08:24.040 Well, look, financially, I think we can all agree

02:08:28.060 perhaps Zoran Mamdani will not be the best thing for New York City.

02:08:33.360 I predict a spiral, a downward spiral,

02:08:39.480 reminiscent of my childhood

02:08:42.500 the old field trips I used to take

02:08:45.560 oh we would get on a bus

02:08:47.820 from some elementary school out in Suffolk County

02:08:51.580 Long Island in the 70's

02:08:54.220 and we'd drive west

02:08:58.100 go west young man

02:08:59.660 where were we headed? The American Museum of Natural History

02:09:04.860 and the second we got through that

02:09:07.780 midtown tunnel

02:09:08.660 I was

02:09:11.240 flabbergasted. I might

02:09:14.080 as well be on Mars

02:09:15.880 from my

02:09:17.600 suburban little enclave

02:09:20.200 of Suffolk County. I was

02:09:22.100 now transported into this

02:09:23.920 world of decadence 0.83

02:09:26.180 and sexual deviance

02:09:27.800 crime

02:09:28.800 horrific people walking

02:09:31.980 around like it was a zombie movie 0.95

02:09:33.720 and criminals

02:09:35.740 i'd look out that bus window like i i don't even know what this is this is another planet

02:09:43.200 and hopefully hopefully the youngsters of today can can live that that experience that young

02:09:54.480 little anthony lived doing a little field trip to new york city back in what i call the day

02:10:01.100 so uh at least um if if the finances won't be in order at least we'll be a safe city

02:10:08.260 because zoran mamdani is known for his oh passion about fighting crime and making the city safer

02:10:17.660 for new yorkers here he is talking about violence uh zoran

02:10:24.020 oftentimes we've even found as legislators when we go into these courts the term violent crime

02:10:33.380 is even used when people are stealing packages violent crime is even used when people are accused

02:10:38.440 of burglary and there happens to be a housing unit in that same dwelling so violence is an

02:10:43.660 artificial construction we have to be very clear what's happening here with these district attorneys

02:10:49.820 That is violence. That is violence of the highest degree.

02:10:54.380 So the few district attorneys that are actually prosecuting these crimes, they're the violent ones.

02:11:03.540 You see? Do you get it? They're the violent people.

02:11:08.260 The criminals, why?

02:11:11.280 They're just stealing a package or burglarizing a structure

02:11:17.260 that perhaps is connected to a residence.

02:11:21.040 Just let him off.

02:11:22.300 Give him a lollipop and let him go back home.

02:11:26.400 Why would you call that violence?

02:11:28.220 Well, I'll tell you why.

02:11:30.100 Because he's lying.

02:11:32.000 This is a lie, and this has been used with liberals

02:11:35.560 that want to decriminalize violent crimes.

02:11:39.460 I've seen enough videos

02:11:42.080 I've talked to enough people

02:11:43.500 We've all seen it

02:11:44.820 You get a car, it gets pulled over

02:11:47.340 And thank God, I will tell you

02:11:49.280 Police body cams are the greatest thing 0.99

02:11:52.500 That came out of Black Lives Matter 1.00

02:11:54.440 Black Lives Matter 1.00

02:11:56.240 During the St. George of Floyd case 0.99

02:11:59.940 All of the cases that gave us

02:12:03.560 These riots that had happened

02:12:05.920 Mike Brown

02:12:07.560 uh what we heard were we want all police agencies and officers to to have body cams

02:12:15.400 because then we'll finally see we'll finally see the abuses the oppression

02:12:21.620 the police brutality that happens on a daily basis especially against people of color

02:12:29.540 what we get is some of the most entertaining videos you will ever scroll through in bed

02:12:38.360 at night before you go to sleep i love it i will sit there and chuckle at some dope that will not

02:12:49.240 step out of the vehicle the cops like ah mims versus pennsylvania says you gotta get out of

02:12:57.780 the car i know my rights apparently you don't i'm gonna go out on a limb here and say you don't know

02:13:05.560 anything about your rights and it turns a simple blinker headlight out tint too dark whatever it

02:13:14.220 is a simple citation if not even a warning into a felony arrest of resisting with or without

02:13:22.880 violence not identifying yourself not stepping out of the vehicle not obeying lawful commands

02:13:28.700 whatever it may be and uh a lot of times these are labeled as violence and then someone goes

02:13:38.320 well i was tased i was thrown to the ground by four officers in handcuff for a blinker

02:13:44.500 no no no i think you know this is not about the blinker i think the blinker situation ended

02:13:52.960 the first eight seconds the cop came to the window and said could you roll the window down

02:13:59.840 and give me your license registration and proof of insurance so when memdani talks about someone

02:14:06.320 stealing a package and they get arrested for a violent crime it's a lie no one that stole a

02:14:14.440 package and gets arrested is booked on a violent crime now let's say the homeowner noticed someone

02:14:22.520 stealing the package went out to confront them and are met by either actual violence physical 0.94

02:14:29.400 violence or the threat come near me i'll kill you hey that's my package yeah try to take it from me 1.00

02:14:37.720 i'll beat your ass that's violence that's now it's not just taking a package it's strong-arm 1.00

02:14:45.840 robbery you're robbing someone with the threat of physical violence it's a violent crime so stop 1.00

02:14:54.840 with the semantics that he was just stealing a package a burglary in a building that has a

02:15:03.560 connected dwelling where people live well yeah there are people in there a lot can happen i

02:15:11.500 absolutely see that without anything even happening beyond robbing a place that's connected to a

02:15:18.460 residence the direction that can lead to in too many cases can result in someone getting hurt or

02:15:26.540 killed whether it's the perp or the resident so yeah i'm all for that being considered a violent

02:15:33.460 crime you're encroaching on someone's domicile that's bad that can definitely turn um really 0.98

02:15:43.360 nasty really quickly so stop stop with the violence as a social construct if you dummies

02:15:52.900 think new york is going to be a safer place because of zorhan memdani i see the on the 0.97

02:15:59.940 street things ah so who you're voting for Zoran Mamdani why well he really seems to know what the

02:16:08.680 people of New York need to make it affordable and um you know I just like his vibe you like his vibe

02:16:18.400 do you I hope you like uh Thunderdome watch the road warrior that'll give you a little inkling

02:16:28.080 on what life in New York City is going to be like 0.95

02:16:31.540 under a Zoran Mamdani. 0.90

02:16:35.680 And then I just questioned how it got to this point.

02:16:39.680 You conservatives, you all dropped the ball, didn't you?

02:16:43.020 You all dropped the ball.

02:16:46.780 This is fun, too.

02:16:49.740 This is Maxine Waters.

02:16:53.340 Look, a lot of these alt reporters,

02:16:56.460 I like them

02:16:58.400 they go out there 0.98

02:17:00.020 they question these dummies

02:17:01.920 and when the dummies don't have an answer 0.90

02:17:04.980 they get mad 0.92

02:17:05.700 that's what it is

02:17:06.780 I would love

02:17:10.120 if a liberal

02:17:11.360 alt reporter came up to me

02:17:14.360 and asked me about something I'm passionate about

02:17:16.680 anyone would

02:17:18.320 if you really felt

02:17:20.460 strongly about a topic

02:17:21.880 and had really researched it

02:17:24.380 to the point where

02:17:25.980 you felt so confident that you could defend your point you could enlighten people educate them

02:17:34.000 based on what you've learned you're expecting it you're like please question me they hate

02:17:42.800 when anyone questions them because they don't know what they're talking about 0.93

02:17:47.520 maxine waters is a great example of that that dumb maurice wig on her head from goodfellas 0.99

02:17:55.120 maury's wigs don't come off even in hurricane force winds she got that dumb wig on her head 1.00

02:18:03.540 this girl's questioning her about uh hey we'd like to reopen the government why do you democrats 0.99

02:18:10.100 insist on having this medicare medical care for illegal aliens in there and she starts well we

02:18:16.620 don't talking about i don't what you're doing she gets all upset but pretty much fesses up

02:18:23.640 to illegals being on the health care till on this bill that they're presenting to reopen the 1.00

02:18:33.460 government. So let's give a listen to the great Ms. Maxine Waters. Do Democrats want to prioritize 0.91

02:18:40.060 the health care of illegal aliens over a government shutdown? Because if the government

02:18:43.820 does shut down, Americans... Excuse me. Stop it right there. We're not prioritizing. What we're

02:18:50.600 doing is saying simply we want to keep the government open and we want to work with the

02:18:55.840 republicans and have a bipartisan agreement to keep this government open and health care is at

02:19:02.340 the top of our agenda. Illegal health care. Demanding health care for illegal aliens? Yes. 0.99

02:19:07.180 Democrats are demanding health care for everybody. Oh everybody. We want to save lives. We want to

02:19:14.600 make sure because they care health care is available to those who would die but having

02:19:22.660 the help of their government so you're good with the government shutdown even if it means

02:19:27.760 giving health care to people who aren't america she goes well you keep that's what you're pushing

02:19:33.640 on what you're trying to do is you're standing here and you're trying to make me say that somehow 0.89

02:19:40.240 Now we're going to put non-citizens over America's credit.

02:19:43.100 You said it. 0.99

02:19:43.960 Stop it.

02:19:44.700 This is the kind of journalism we don't need.

02:19:46.900 You are divisive.

02:19:48.120 Oh, honest journalism?

02:19:48.840 No, you're not.

02:19:49.380 You're being divisive.

02:19:50.680 No, please.

02:19:51.900 You don't need to ask that question.

02:19:53.760 You're just trying to get controversy here.

02:19:55.860 You're not going to get it from me.

02:19:57.160 We want to save health care for all people.

02:20:00.940 Thank you.

02:20:01.460 Thank you, Congresswoman.

02:20:02.360 Appreciate it.

02:20:02.880 Thank you, Congresswoman. 0.99

02:20:04.260 She literally flipped her wig at that point. 1.00

02:20:06.220 It came off her head. 0.83

02:20:07.960 It flipped.

02:20:08.980 Nadia Comaneci

02:20:10.820 it just flipped 0.99

02:20:11.700 and landed on her head 1.00

02:20:13.340 upside down

02:20:14.300 and then a man

02:20:15.320 poured soup in it

02:20:16.500 and they all ate

02:20:17.860 soup

02:20:19.020 from Maxine Waters

02:20:21.100 Maxine Waters

02:20:22.180 flipped wig

02:20:23.060 quite a scene

02:20:24.500 man

02:20:24.940 she said it 1.00

02:20:27.640 she said

02:20:29.440 she wants health care

02:20:31.760 for everybody 1.00

02:20:33.020 come here Stu

02:20:35.900 you gotta come

02:20:37.840 to Colorado the boulder

02:20:39.880 stool bring them

02:20:41.200 with you

02:20:42.380 she said it

02:20:45.880 and then she 1.00

02:20:47.760 tries to get on the girl 1.00

02:20:49.480 that's doing the interview

02:20:50.840 for trying to be divisive

02:20:53.620 no she's saying

02:20:55.220 will you sign a bill

02:20:57.660 that doesn't have health care

02:20:59.540 for illegals in it 1.00

02:21:00.720 I can't believe what you're doing 0.85

02:21:03.040 and then the wig popped off it was wonderful to see

02:21:05.360 alright stick around

02:21:07.220 We'll be back in a matter of moments, a little more left of The Anthony Cumia Show.

02:21:11.640 It's The Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

02:21:17.920 It's The Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

02:21:24.180 Yes, it is.

02:21:25.760 Boy, a buzz is right on by, doesn't it?

02:21:28.360 Yes.

02:21:30.160 But mucho apreciado in the words of Bad Bunny.

02:21:35.260 I'm trying to learn Spanish.

02:21:37.520 Why is my dog barking? 1.00

02:21:39.560 Shut that butt up. 1.00

02:21:42.120 My show would not be complete without a clip from the beautiful, gracious, classy Jasmine Crockett. 1.00

02:21:54.560 Oh, yeah. 1.00

02:21:55.980 This one, I call her cannon fodder. 1.00

02:21:58.680 That's not a violent thing because I don't I don't suggest anything fire out of a cannon for her, you know, but she's just cannon fodder. 1.00

02:22:11.140 She's she's one of these Democrats that the upper echelon is allowing to make a fool of herself because I had my theory. 1.00

02:22:19.740 I think I've said it enough times, briefly, it is that they will come up with a viable, seemingly centrist Democrat candidate for president.

02:22:31.180 They will. 0.91

02:22:32.760 But in the interim, they want as many lunatics to still be pumping out this left-wing nonsense that they've been doing for quite some time now.

02:22:43.520 They need it a little longer, right around the midterms, a little after, this guy, whoever it is, will make his debut, and he'll talk about border security, and he'll talk about crime and international topics such as tariffs and the fact that America is the ATM of the world.

02:23:09.140 he'll talk and you'll be like wait this is a democrat this is a liberal because in contrast

02:23:15.500 to maxine waters and aoc and chuck schumer and jasmine crockett he will look like a conservative

02:23:26.540 and even the the independents will look at him and go wow the democrats have really come up with

02:23:35.540 a centrist candidate but it's not it's all forced perspective if you pump out mental patience for

02:23:43.980 years and then you put a guy that's kind of somewhat reasonable he will look like the greatest

02:23:52.920 candidate on the face of the earth and that's what they're doing mark my words at some point

02:23:59.520 they will unveil who this is going to be.

02:24:02.300 It's not Newsome.

02:24:03.840 He's already got the stink on him.

02:24:06.400 This can be someone we don't even know.

02:24:08.140 You have to be a poli-sci major right now

02:24:12.560 to even maybe have an inkling of who this guy might be.

02:24:17.000 It'll be a guy.

02:24:17.760 It'll be a white guy. 0.61

02:24:18.960 Because they just want to win at this point. 0.64

02:24:21.860 And that's what we're going to see.

02:24:24.980 Just wait.

02:24:26.080 Once he comes out, comes out of the woodwork,

02:24:28.740 I'll go, ah, here he is.

02:24:30.800 He's the guy I've been talking about.

02:24:32.600 But in the meantime, enjoy.

02:24:36.020 Enjoy the freak show they're pumping out there in order to make this guy look better when he finally steps out.

02:24:42.400 Because in contrast to the lunatics that we are seeing these days in the Democrat Party, he's going to look great.

02:24:50.060 So Jasmine Crockett, she is more of the fear factor thing.

02:24:58.740 Obviously, Donald Trump trying to clean up Biden's mess of the invasion over our southern border has to mean,

02:25:08.020 it can't just mean that he wants to get rid of illegal aliens in this country.

02:25:11.540 It has to mean that it's just leading to citizens, U.S. citizens, being rounded up, arrested,

02:25:20.920 and then subsequently deported to some faraway land.

02:25:24.380 So let's hear Jasmine talk about this.

02:25:28.180 jazz for me specifically black and brown people who have said immigration is not my issue so

02:25:34.880 everything that is taking place it is going to impact you same thing with immigration whether 1.00

02:25:41.240 you're an immigrant or not especially because they are out of control especially rounding up 0.84

02:25:46.080 u.s citizens but if you allow them to do the illegal things to non-citizens at some point in

02:25:52.400 time they are going to actually round us up to the whole game plan with this administration is

02:25:58.420 othering right and it is it's quite astounding that you do have the president and the vice

02:26:05.040 president both clearly white men um who are married to immigrants like yeah what like you

02:26:14.360 know yeah legal i'm like baron obviously gets a little bit of a pass because of how he appears

02:26:21.160 right but jd vance his his kids got some melanin so i i mean i i don't even understand how you can

02:26:31.140 um convince yourself to do something that ultimately may be harmful to your own family

02:26:39.080 like that is diabolical diabolical how how do you put that together how does this dummy put that 0.83

02:26:47.060 together that just because there is a legal issue getting rid of illegal aliens in this country it's 0.65

02:26:55.240 not new trump didn't come up with the idea of illegal aliens and they're here illegally and 0.57

02:27:01.540 we need to deport them he didn't invent that out of nowhere and how does she make the connection

02:27:07.600 that because that's happening it must mean it's going to lead to american citizens being deported

02:27:14.500 And that J.D. Vance's own wife and kids will be on some boxcar to some faraway camp.

02:27:23.180 It's the fear factor.

02:27:25.440 They try so hard to convince people that because Trump is doing exactly what he should be doing,

02:27:32.840 exactly what he was voted into office to do, legally, constitutionally,

02:27:39.560 that it must mean that he's just gearing up

02:27:44.720 to perform atrocities against American citizens. 1.00

02:27:49.640 Shut up. 1.00

02:27:51.720 Shut up. 1.00
