00:01:15.000 It's the Anthony Cumia Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

00:01:21.340 Hey, how is everyone this Sunday evening?

00:01:26.320 It is the Anthony Cumia Show.

00:01:28.180 i would be anthony cumia that would make perfect sense and i'm glad it works out that way thanks

00:01:34.780 for tuning in because uh you know what the hell else you're gonna do sundays roll around man i

00:01:41.820 don't even know why they're considered part of the weekend quite frankly you got your friday right

00:01:47.980 you're done with work you oh man you're out carousing having fun because you're like

00:01:54.940 And it's the beginning of the weekend.

00:01:57.940 I just got off of work.

00:01:59.820 I don't have to be to work until Monday.

00:02:02.960 And then you hang out, you party, you have a great time.

00:02:06.320 And Saturday, oh, maybe the old lady has some chores for me, but it's Saturday.

00:02:15.340 And then Sunday, Sunday morning you wake up and, I don't know, it's got that vibe.

00:02:21.520 It's just got that vibe.

00:02:23.560 And then by the afternoon, mid-afternoon, I'd say, it just sinks in.

00:02:30.720 From mid-afternoon until you get up to go to work Monday, it's not a fun day.

00:02:37.480 I don't know.

00:02:39.480 That's how I feel about it, and I've seen a lot of other people with their various posts and memes on social media.

00:02:45.420 because that's really the only way I see how people feel about anything on a given day

00:02:51.520 through the intranets.

00:02:55.000 But, yeah, Sunday, oh, it's just a drag.

00:02:57.780 But at 8 o'clock, it becomes a great time until 11,

00:03:02.680 and then you go, ah, Anthony's show is done.

00:03:07.280 Now all I can think of is work.

00:03:10.320 Well, I'm glad you tuned in.

00:03:12.360 if uh if uh you're you're watching football you could turn the sound down and turn this up

00:03:21.560 and you could still catch your football games but i guess if you're a big thing this sunday is the

00:03:29.100 mtv video music awards well then i guess i lost you i guess i lost you to that although i don't

00:03:37.540 really see a crossover in demographic from the 2026 vmas to uh the uh anthony cumia show

00:03:48.340 i don't know you know for years years literally years and years and years we've been saying

00:03:56.300 as uh your your whatever your generation is gets older uh and you can remember mtv

00:04:03.460 you just think like i don't even know what that is anymore i've i don't think i've turned on

00:04:10.400 the channel uh in decades and uh any clips i see or any events that they do like the vmas or

00:04:19.800 the uh uh what else do they have there's the video music awards and then like the movie

00:04:28.200 awards or something i don't know but uh no one no one above a certain age cares but i don't even see

00:04:36.800 anyone talking about it online it doesn't seem to be that mtv is a big influence on uh any

00:04:44.920 generation at this point uh it was huge my god was it a huge thing in the early 80s right up

00:04:55.340 into the 90s but the entire 80s i would say was just devoted to mtv mtv had uh you talk about the

00:05:05.920 finger on the pulse of uh culture of youth culture music culture it was huge uh everyone watched mtv

00:05:17.440 it was really aside from radio the only way uh well obviously your own collection of albums

00:05:23.680 and tapes but uh it was uh you got to see your your favorite bands and and whatnot performing

00:05:33.360 and some of the ridiculous videos that they used to have it was so funny they man did they put

00:05:39.840 money behind videos back then the early ones uh like of course the first one the buggles with

00:05:47.500 The video killed the radio star.

00:05:49.160 Not a big budget video.

00:05:51.120 A lot of them. 1.00

00:05:51.780 Flock of Seagulls, Iran. 1.00

00:05:53.940 Remember that one? 1.00

00:05:54.580 Not Iran or Iran, but Iran.

00:05:59.320 And it was the band standing on a turntable or something with a camera in the middle, 0.57

00:06:06.480 and they were all covered in tinfoil.

00:06:09.220 And the guy had the, well, Flock of Seagulls hairdo.

00:06:13.100 And those were cheap videos.

00:06:14.820 No one cared.

00:06:15.940 It was like, oh, you made a video.

00:06:17.020 put it out on mtv and then when they realized how important the visual aspect of music was in the

00:06:24.680 80s uh the money just poured in and you started getting these long form videos of course michael

00:06:32.280 jackson thriller was just a movie uh but there were still bands you know that just had it was

00:06:41.120 like you had to have your uh yahoo is you had to have yahoo women and then you had to have maybe

00:06:47.360 some midgets sometimes you have midgets running around and then uh the the bands had to be 0.97

00:06:54.140 maybe sometimes they were dressed like knights like uh war warriors with swords really ridiculous 0.97

00:07:03.260 nothing that had anything to do with the songs themselves but it was fun you know it was a very 0.70

00:07:10.300 interesting and entertaining there of course with the live performances you'd get uh black

00:07:16.140 sabbath ozzy osbourne just uh doing a live performance those are always great uh and then

00:07:23.760 i don't know what did it mtv raps is that is that what finally did it is that the video that killed

00:07:34.760 the video star because uh throughout the 90s was the decline obviously grunge that really

00:07:43.800 reinvigorated uh mtv you still wanted to see the bands pearl jam had some great videos

00:07:51.440 sound garden black hole sun was a weird creepy uh video it was fantastic and uh you know that

00:07:59.640 continued nirvana uh and then it just i think the internet and especially in the early to mid

00:08:12.020 2000s uh people just didn't care anymore they could see what they wanted on their phones once

00:08:20.480 the iphone came out uh they had access to their own music with itunes and things like that so you

00:08:26.840 didn't have to with an iPod so you didn't have to depend on MTV playing songs you wanted to see

00:08:34.400 or if you wanted to see a video or your favorite band perform live you could do that on your phone

00:08:39.660 and that really destroyed MTV I don't think it was any one thing culture changed to you know for

00:08:49.400 whatever that's worth worth so uh that they're still doing this is amazing to me i do not know

00:08:57.540 anyone who watches probably a good thing if i knew anyone who watched mtv uh i'd probably have

00:09:04.460 chris hansen coming over anthony why don't you have a seat right there now i saw your texts

00:09:10.740 and you talked about sacks did you want to have sacks with the yes chris i'm fine thank you you

00:09:17.900 You want a Zima and some hot nachos?

00:09:22.500 Zima.

00:09:23.180 What did you bring to the house, Anthony? 1.00

00:09:25.640 Well, I have a Boone's Farm Strawberry Hill wine for the gal

00:09:31.320 and some Cool Ranch Doritos.

00:09:36.360 Cool Ranch Doritos.

00:09:38.120 I like how we always reiterate.

00:09:40.580 Did you bring condoms?

00:09:42.640 Yes, I brought condoms.

00:09:44.200 You brought condoms.

00:09:45.680 i've not seen the new movie yet prime time i've not seen that chris hansen's a great guy 0.78

00:09:53.300 i i like him a lot still trying to get him on the damn show i gotta uh sync it up for when i'm in

00:10:00.240 new york but uh i got off track a little bit mtv yeah so they're doing the vmas and uh i talk about

00:10:09.680 how the young people have been watching mtv but they're really not and i think mtv realizes that

00:10:16.060 because uh a couple of the big names at this year's vmas you might have heard of this young

00:10:22.880 upstart uh gal madonna anyone heard about this new artist madonna yes madonna is up for awards

00:10:34.760 for the Video Music Award.

00:10:37.600 Does anyone remember seeing a Madonna video

00:10:43.880 in the past at least 20 years?

00:10:48.140 I really don't.

00:10:50.040 Got to be honest.

00:10:51.960 She has a new video out 0.80

00:10:54.240 that is up for a Video Music Award?

00:10:58.500 Is that what I'm being led to believe?

00:11:01.000 I saw the little red carpet deal

00:11:03.840 And Paris Hilton, you know, that youngster, that gal that is so popular with the kids these days, Paris Hilton.

00:11:16.600 And, of course, Taylor Swift, she's up for a bunch of awards because it's Taylor Swift.

00:11:21.840 And the young girls still do like her.

00:11:24.460 But I don't think it's as big for the youngsters as it was even a few years ago.

00:11:30.980 You know, these artists get a little older.

00:11:32.920 The kids, they find someone else to enjoy.

00:11:38.860 But I get the Taylor Swift thing.

00:11:40.740 But Madonna, Paris Hilton, and Nirvana, the surviving members of Nirvana.

00:11:47.600 They were up there.

00:11:48.480 I saw a clip of them in a photo shoot.

00:11:52.520 They were taking their picture.

00:11:54.800 It looked like a law firm.

00:11:57.520 They looked like a law firm.

00:11:59.520 it was just

00:12:01.900 you know

00:12:03.580 I understand

00:12:05.160 time moves on

00:12:07.540 people get older

00:12:09.160 we've all gotten older

00:12:10.840 but it's

00:12:12.400 odd that it seems MTV

00:12:15.160 is embracing the heyday

00:12:17.760 I mean when you talk

00:12:19.260 Madonna and Nirvana

00:12:21.840 that is the heyday

00:12:25.620 of MTV

00:12:27.180 in the 80's and the 90's

00:12:28.660 And the fact that they're embracing that, trying to get them on board here for the VMAs, kind of tells me it's over, Johnny.

00:12:37.940 Nothing's over.

00:12:39.160 It's not over.

00:12:39.960 Nothing's over.

00:12:40.880 Thank you, Mr. Rambo.

00:12:44.580 All right.

00:12:45.900 That and, boy, plenty more. 1.00

00:12:49.080 We have Kamala Harris sounding like the idiot she is. 1.00

00:12:52.200 Congresswoman Presley 1.00

00:12:56.900 she apparently thinks lynchings

00:12:59.000 are still going on

00:12:59.940 and perhaps a ban on

00:13:02.880 Glocks

00:13:03.580 that and so much more

00:13:06.680 when we continue

00:14:53.340 It is indeed the Anthony Cumia Show.

00:14:55.540 And, hey, is anyone else getting e-mails from these jilted chicks, Trump, Vance, and Don Jr.?

00:15:04.540 I am just, every time I open my e-mail, you know, I donated during the presidential elections, all of them.

00:15:15.560 And once you do that, I guess you get on a list.

00:15:18.540 And it's the Vance, Trump, and Don Jr. emails do not stop. 0.97

00:15:26.920 They're like jilted chicks.

00:15:29.700 That's what it's like getting these.

00:15:31.300 It's like, have you forgotten me?

00:15:35.320 Why haven't you replied?

00:15:38.880 Look, I like you, Don Jr., but I'm over it.

00:15:43.800 They seem to think, and I know it's, you know,

00:15:47.440 Obviously, I know it's not them, but I know it's not even their re-election committee or their war chest or whatever it is.

00:15:56.860 I know it's these other fundraising and scams, too.

00:16:04.720 A lot of them are scams that get in there.

00:16:07.300 But it's so funny how they word the subjects in the email.

00:16:11.500 It's like, oh, this is from Donald Jr. Trump.

00:16:14.880 oh my god i best look into this maybe it's important maybe they need me at the white house

00:16:21.860 and then you look and it's like did i do something to hurt you

00:16:26.360 look we had a good time i sent you flowers yeah for some reason uh it won't stop i still find it

00:16:37.480 kind of funny but i'm just wondering if i'm alone in that whole thing so uh yeah we were just talking

00:16:43.040 about mtv and the of course the big changes over the course of the years they're doing the

00:16:47.780 video music awards tonight and it's kind of an they're embracing uh madonna paris hilton

00:16:55.920 nirvana uh a lot of artists that i think young people don't even know who the hell they are

00:17:03.060 and the fact that madonna has a music video out that's up for an award who's who has seen this

00:17:08.720 i know i could walk out on the streets and ask people of all ages have you seen the new madonna

00:17:15.600 video and 100 percent would say get away from me and put some pants on for god's sake i'm teasing

00:17:23.160 of course they would say no i have not seen a madonna video in eons let's go to joaquin there

00:17:32.200 in pennsylvania joaquin uh what's up my friend hey good evening anthony hey you know do you

00:17:39.280 remember when mtv first came out back in the 70s they had 81 81 was the first year joaquin

00:17:47.180 it was 81 yeah there was a there were those sex exercising videos do you remember those uh yeah

00:17:55.740 that was uh hold on joaquin joaquin you're you're mistaken you're confusing a couple of things i

00:18:03.220 understand because it was very erotic you're thinking of showtime showtime late at night

00:18:09.140 used to have uh in between their their movies or programming they would have those girls on a

00:18:15.560 turntable uh doing aerobics and they were very scantily clad and if you don't remember that 0.97

00:18:22.220 I might have to say you're gay. 0.99

00:18:25.760 Maybe my teenage friends would sit down and watch that. 1.00

00:18:30.420 Oh, it was fantastic.

00:18:33.160 Look, these days, of course, you have your phone in your hand, 0.73

00:18:36.720 which is a gateway to some of the most debaucherous, degenerate pornography you'll ever see.

00:18:42.780 But back in those days, Joaquin, I'm sure you recall, we didn't have that.

00:18:47.580 We had to find forage for any type of erotica we could find.

00:18:54.180 If you're walking through the woods one day and a pile of leaves and you kick it and a playboy was in there.

00:19:00.680 Someone else had stashed a playboy in there.

00:19:03.160 That was how you saw your erotica as a kid. 0.62

00:19:07.960 And then to see those girls doing aerobics on Showtime and Skinemax, as they used to call Cinemax, it was amazing.

00:19:15.960 It was an amazing time.

00:19:18.980 MTV did have their spring break thing where they would show wet T-shirt contests and bikini contests and stuff.

00:19:27.160 But, yeah, that's all irrelevant these days, man.

00:19:32.300 Yeah, you know, also, too, as far as music goes, I mean, I've done a lot of karaoke.

00:19:38.140 I'm actually very good at singing country music.

00:19:40.320 and you would be surprised

00:19:42.620 that people in their 20s

00:19:44.480 they love the old music

00:19:46.360 like Ronnie Millsop, Johnny Cash

00:19:48.500 Yeah

00:19:49.500 The list actually is endless

00:19:52.620 as far as that goes

00:19:54.080 Yeah, you bring up a good point

00:19:56.480 I do get jaded

00:19:58.420 and I try to

00:19:59.680 I try to imagine

00:20:02.520 a world where that's a thing

00:20:04.400 where younger generations do

00:20:06.460 kind of appreciate some of the older stuff

00:20:08.800 and it is true

00:20:10.100 Because I have seen videos where these kids who are amazing these days in bands, you see these kids that are 10, 12 years old, and they're playing their instruments as good as people in their 20s and 30s did many years ago.

00:20:27.400 And they're playing classic rock songs.

00:20:31.100 So, yeah, while I sound very jaded, you bring up a good point there, Joaquin.

00:20:36.200 you know there was one night i had this guy in his 20s hanging out with me when i was doing

00:20:42.880 karaoke and he goes you see those girls over there he goes sing ronnie milsap no getting over

00:20:48.780 me he goes they'll go nuts over it and he was right and they were uh they were younger uh women

00:20:56.600 they were in their 20s joaquin why don't you take a seat over here what did you bring 0.99

00:21:02.580 thank you Joaquin uh well you're talking about slags yeah so that's um you know MTV it was it 0.99

00:21:14.520 was an institution as they call it an institution oh I want my MTV remember that people didn't know 1.00

00:21:23.380 that was staying singing I want my MTV in the background it was a big thing when you went over

00:21:30.260 your friend's house you pretty much sat around with mtv on and you talked about stuff you know

00:21:36.960 you packed a bowl or rolled some doobes let me tell you kids what we used to do back in the old

00:21:45.260 days we'd put on that mtv and roll some doobies oh when a seed would pop in a doobie it was like

00:21:54.400 a cartoon exploding cigar forget about it now i couldn't imagine smoking the weed or going to a

00:22:04.620 dispensary and getting the edibles and things that people have now i would smoke homegrown and when i

00:22:13.000 say homegrown literally it was out your window box attached to your house hopefully your mom

00:22:19.800 didn't see it the plants got maybe two feet high and you ripped the uh plant out you'd put it in

00:22:26.600 the oven to dry it just leaves you weren't there wasn't even seeds and don't talk about buds there

00:22:35.060 was it was literally leaves uh and then you'd roll it up smoke like three of them to try to get any

00:22:42.880 type of feeling of a buzz and then you'd feel like you were having a cerebral hemorrhage

00:22:48.060 with the headache you'd get that's what it was like in the good old days kids how could you not

00:22:55.620 look back and remember fondly uh lewis what's up man jersey hey what's up hey i'm italian now listen

00:23:06.960 we just got to understand that times are changing i know i'm going to give you a perfect example

00:23:13.420 I saw it on Fox News like five years ago, and I'd laugh myself to sleep every time.

00:23:19.660 You remember when we used to sit around Italian family and we'd say, 0.97

00:23:23.420 remember the Brazilian nuts?

00:23:25.900 Now, you can't, I haven't heard that.

00:23:30.460 We haven't done that in 40 years.

00:23:33.480 Well, of course not.

00:23:35.080 Times change.

00:23:36.100 I, as an Italian, grew up in an Italian family.

00:23:40.040 I've been going over to relatives' houses for holidays for many, many years.

00:23:45.440 Yep.

00:23:45.900 And there was a term that some people used for a Brazilian nut that is so, so insensitive and offensive these days.

00:23:58.700 But it was ballyed around the table like it was past the turkey.

00:24:03.560 It was like nothing.

00:24:05.120 That's just what it was.

00:24:06.620 That's what we just got to figure.

00:24:09.040 The times have changed, man.

00:24:10.880 They have.

00:24:11.600 I know.

00:24:11.960 I know, Lewis.

00:25:57.400 world online looks completely different from yours. I'm Patricia Kosim, Ontario's Information

00:26:18.120 or wherever you get your podcasts.

00:26:20.740 program indeed he do can you tell i'm doing something i'm like cutting pasting and printing

00:26:29.360 something that i have here because i need it if we want to talk about the great kamala harris

00:26:37.200 kamala kamala kamala she wants to be called kamala i love when trump was doing that with her

00:26:43.600 let me reach over the printer there it is and uh yeah kamala kamala i call it kamala i can't say

00:26:54.340 the kamala it was always kamala i shouldn't have to i shouldn't have to know how to pronounce

00:26:59.360 a wacky name like that i've never said like oh suzanne no it's susan anthony oh i thought it

00:27:06.000 with suzanne oh katharin no it's katherine oh i see why would i just say katharin it's um 0.98

00:27:14.740 it's a stupid name for a stupid person if i may be so bold so uh kamala she's been making the rounds 0.80

00:27:24.460 she's been hanging out with abdul al-sayid abdul al-sayid another name that i should not know i 1.00

00:27:32.740 should not even know that name unless it's a newscast saying abdul al-said the terrorist has

00:27:40.260 been uh taken out by the israeli defense force something like that but i have to know that abdul

00:27:48.220 al-said is a candidate for the senate in this country in this country yeah so he made the

00:27:57.180 glaring error of, uh, latching himself to Kamala Harris, uh, during his campaign. This was funny

00:28:06.660 last week. He was just flabbergasted. She was sitting next to him at some event and, uh,

00:28:18.160 Kamala just kept rambling on about things. She has not changed a bit. She has not taken

00:28:26.280 what everyone says about her that she's an idiot that it's word salad she's a rambling babbling 1.00

00:28:33.840 buffoon she has not taken any of that to heart and gone maybe maybe i should do something to 1.00

00:28:40.480 change people's attitude on she just plows ahead with the same moronic nonsense pouring out of her 0.98

00:28:49.220 maw at every turn and uh there were a couple of times abdul al-sayid was uh sitting there 0.97

00:28:58.000 looking horrified so uh here she is this she wants to uh of course portray herself 0.71

00:29:07.080 as a black woman now we know she's really not she's indian jamaican i i don't even know but 1.00

00:29:16.220 But I don't think you can consider her African-American, maybe in some circles. 0.93

00:29:25.880 But she's whatever she needs to be. 1.00

00:29:29.900 She's a retarded chameleon. 1.00

00:29:32.740 And when she speaks, it's whatever she needs to be at that moment. 1.00

00:29:37.860 When she's addressing the NAACP, she puts a little jive in her talk.

00:29:44.280 right people am i right it's really embarrassing to watch her but uh here she is this clip is ac1

00:29:54.060 this is the one where she's saying and this is a new thing to say everyone says this on the left

00:30:00.120 this is a big one that chuck schumer's been saying that we are in the new jim crow era jim crow 2.0

00:30:08.660 We're back to the Jim Crow era. 0.91

00:30:13.400 Very ridiculous, insulting thing to say, quite frankly. 0.92

00:30:18.860 So let's listen to Carmela. 0.97

00:30:20.580 Carmela, Jesus Christ. 0.78

00:30:23.440 Let's listen to Kamala say that we're back in the Jim Crow era. 1.00

00:30:27.660 That's just politics.

00:30:30.740 OK.

00:30:32.080 OK.

00:30:32.400 I want us to couple that with the work that's been happening for over a decade now 0.98

00:30:39.920 to erase black history in America. 0.95

00:30:43.480 What?

00:30:44.920 Including the history of racism in America.

00:30:48.500 So they say, the court, most recently, that's not, that's politics, that's okay.

00:30:56.200 Basically, whatever happens in politics is okay.

00:30:58.460 What they have done is they have backdoored racism through the door of politics.

00:31:07.080 What they have done is return us to a Jim Crow era, and we have seen the consequence of that in real time.

00:31:16.420 Because, again, these folks have an agenda, and they are quick to implement it. 0.63

00:31:21.660 So immediately thereafter, states started redrawing their lines.

00:31:27.200 Oh, I was in Louisiana recently. It's ground zero. It was Louisiana Calais was the name of the case.

00:31:34.640 It is predicted that because of that decision, we will lose up to one third of the members of the Congressional Black Caucus.

00:31:45.200 Congressional Black Caucus. Return to Jim Crow. Really? Really, Kamala? 0.90

00:31:53.060 When was the last time you went into a Woolworths, sat at the malt counter, and someone dumped 0.99

00:32:02.700 a shake over your head because you're a black woman? 1.00

00:32:06.820 That's Jim Crow. 1.00

00:32:08.940 That's Jim Crow.

00:32:11.340 There's plenty of instances of unbelievable bigotry, prejudice, racism, oppression, all

00:32:20.140 of that in the Jim Crow era.

00:32:23.060 To to say that what we are living in now in the United States of America, as far as black people are concerned, is a resurgence of Jim Crow. 0.99

00:32:35.620 You're out of your mind. It is such a cheap, ham handed way to try to race bait. 0.99

00:32:44.420 It's exactly what she's doing right here. Jim Crow era trying to backdoor racism. 1.00

00:32:53.060 Is it one or the other? 0.97

00:32:55.420 Jim Crow America wasn't backdooring racism. 1.00

00:33:00.020 That was right at your front door. 0.96

00:33:02.800 Hello, racist here. 0.99

00:33:06.220 It's either backdooring racism or it's Jim Crow. 0.98

00:33:09.540 Can't be bold, but she's throwing anything against the wall 1.00

00:33:14.600 to see if it'll stick, and just disgusting. 1.00

00:33:19.540 This always happens around election time, presidential or midterm election. 0.91

00:33:26.960 You will see this type of nonsense run rampant right after the election.

00:33:33.180 We won't hear about this. 0.88

00:33:34.820 We won't hear about Jim Crow racism, not from the likes of Kamala Harris.

00:33:39.220 Anyway, we won't hear that.

00:33:41.020 A.I. is an existential threat that will murder everyone in 10 years.

00:33:45.980 all this will disappear immediately following the election results on election day in november

00:33:55.140 you got to understand why they're doing this so uh here's another one and this one's very odd 0.94

00:34:02.720 well if it was anyone else it would be odd but it's camilla harris and she's a blithering buffoon

00:34:07.640 uh she's talking about voter registration roles and uh she's actually saying what trump and what

00:34:20.560 republicans have been saying about the voter roles being full of people that are not uh legal voters

00:34:30.780 They are not allowed to vote in our elections.

00:34:35.180 Listen to how she tries to put this.

00:34:37.960 AC2 would be the clip.

00:34:47.060 AC2 is the clip.

00:34:49.400 They are cheating by purging voter rolls.

00:34:52.920 So we say as leaders then to folks, not only must you register to vote,

00:34:57.240 Check your voter registration status to make sure you haven't been purged from the rolls.

00:35:05.120 They're trying to take our tools, but we are a creative people.

00:35:09.860 People?

00:35:10.880 And we know how to fight.

00:35:13.760 And we have always been fighting against the odds, and that has never deterred us.

00:35:21.240 This was at an NAACP event.

00:35:24.960 You could tell, can't you?

00:35:27.240 We are the people that will make this world.

00:35:32.980 She turns into Martin Luther King.

00:35:37.640 Kamala Harris says voter registration rolls are being purged.

00:35:40.860 Of what? Of who?

00:35:43.160 Can she point out one instance where somebody that is absolutely legitimately on those voter rolls being removed?

00:35:54.680 They're citizens. They're not convicted felons. They are registered in good standing in the district that they're voting and all those things that we all do to legally vote.

00:36:10.020 can she come up with one single instance in a country of 350 odd million people

00:36:18.700 of a citizen who was absolutely legitimate legal registered voter that could not vote

00:36:25.700 because voter rolls were purged of their name i'll answer that no she can't none of them can

00:36:35.160 so what what is she talking about he wants to purr the voter roll 0.97

00:36:41.680 uh of what kamala of illegals of people that aren't allowed to vote yeah we want that 1.00

00:36:56.040 americans all americans should want that the ridiculous brainwashed idiots on the left of 1.00

00:37:03.960 of course, are easily manipulated into thinking there's something wrong 1.00

00:37:08.300 with wanting only qualified, legitimate, legal voters to vote. 0.99

00:37:15.320 You want illegal aliens to vote. 0.89

00:37:18.640 And if they're getting kicked off voter rolls,

00:37:21.620 and dead people are getting kicked off,

00:37:24.040 and convicted felons are getting kicked off,

00:37:27.160 and anyone else that should not be voting in our elections is getting kicked off,

00:37:31.700 that's what we want.

00:37:33.660 That's what we voted for.

00:37:36.060 It's one of the platforms that Trump ran on that I like to see that at least they're trying to do something.

00:37:42.620 The roadblocks are being thrown in the way at every turn.

00:37:46.600 judges and uh letitia james in new york and her struggle to allow people that should not be 1.00

00:37:59.140 allowed to vote to vote is uh abominable but there she is kamala harris saying that the voter 0.99

00:38:08.160 registration rolls are being purged but she doesn't say of who and she doesn't bring up

00:38:13.600 one single example of a person that was legally allowed to vote that was purged from those voter

00:38:21.960 rolls that's what you get with the left that's this is kamala she's she's stumping for uh for 0.99

00:38:30.960 the left for the democrats the midterm elections and this is the type of bs that she's throwing 0.94

00:38:38.140 out there how about dei diversity equity and inclusion one of the worst things to ever happen

00:38:47.520 to this country we are so so seeing the effects of the dei policies uh from a few years ago

00:39:00.000 So encroaching on every industry, some of which it's downright dangerous to have DEI people running things in the aviation industry, the medical industry, engineering.

00:39:21.680 all of these things if you let people in that are not qualified and the only reason they have 0.92

00:39:27.840 been let in is because of some skin color religion sexual orientation uh you are putting 0.94

00:39:35.340 the entire nation in danger no one's going to sell me any different on that one i think you 1.00

00:39:40.580 have to be an idiot to not realize that that is what happens when you allow unqualified people 1.00

00:39:47.980 to be put in positions of power based on anything but their merits. 1.00

00:39:55.760 If you want to make merit the most important thing

00:40:02.100 in putting people in seats of power,

00:40:04.840 putting people in positions of responsibility in businesses,

00:40:08.600 fine, that is the best thing we can do as a nation. 0.90

00:40:11.840 If it turns out that they are of any color, race, religion, sexual orientation, that should not matter.

00:40:23.320 And the left are the people that are saying it shouldn't matter.

00:40:26.580 But if you have a group of people based on merit that were put in a position where they are responsible for whatever it may be, as far as political position goes, a job, CEO, whatever it is, and they happen to be a very diverse group, that's fine.

00:40:48.880 at least you know they're qualified if they happen to be all one racial group that's fine too

00:40:58.020 because they're the most qualified it worked out that way race was not being considered

00:41:04.740 as it shouldn't be but for some reason when you talk about dei in that way you are a piece of 0.99

00:41:12.960 crap bigoted racist and again anyone with common sense would see that all we're doing 0.99

00:41:22.060 is is asking for the most qualified people to be put in positions where their job is critical 0.99

00:41:30.980 to the safety of other people airline mechanics supervisors pilots surgeons nurses techs

00:41:41.080 Those are people I want, the best qualified people in those jobs. 1.00

00:41:46.740 Don't care what color they are. 0.99

00:41:49.600 Just make them the best.

00:41:51.320 Make them the best they could possibly be.

00:41:54.780 Well, Kamala Harris, speaking on DEI, goes into such a different direction,

00:42:03.540 I don't even know what the hell she's talking about.

00:42:06.620 See if you can figure it out.

00:42:08.360 Call us, 800-848-9222. 0.99

00:42:11.080 If you could figure out how the hell she's equating DEI with black women and their maternal health and AC3.

00:42:23.700 Here's another fact. 1.00

00:42:25.960 The attack on DEI is an attack on maternal care.

00:42:30.460 An attack on DEI to recognize diversity, equity, and inclusion is an attack by definition on maternal care.

00:42:43.560 By definition on maternal care.

00:42:44.340 Including the need to protect black women in connection with their pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum care.

00:42:56.100 Who? How? What? How?

00:43:00.460 What is she talking about? 1.00

00:43:05.420 Girls about as sharp as a sack of wet mice. 1.00

00:43:09.040 Girls about as sharp as a bowling ball. 1.00

00:43:12.100 I'll say bowling ball. 1.00

00:43:15.000 By definition, an attack on DEI is an attack on black women's maternal health.

00:43:26.320 by me by me i pass i can't fathom how she's making that connection is she talking about

00:43:36.420 dei medical staff nurses doctors obstetricians prenatal care that dei people should be in those

00:43:47.620 positions to give better care to pregnant women or pregnant black women i i that's all i could

00:43:55.760 come up with i apologize for being so short-sighted and not being able to speak 0.99

00:44:02.460 absolute moron i'm not fluent in idiot so i don't know what the hell camelo was talking about there 0.98

00:44:12.180 so you got a pregnant woman and dei how do you link them together it's like six degrees of kevin 1.00

00:44:20.280 bacon i i just can't i can't connect those but that's her that's her helping helping her people

00:44:30.580 helping the democrats get elected by going out there they must be up there on their big

00:44:37.700 democratic national committee hilltop going can someone put her away until november someone put 0.99

00:45:23.220 for decades and my job is to describe things so that people listening can get a mental image

00:45:31.700 maybe i don't want to harm you my faithful listeners with a mental image of madonna

00:45:37.280 on the vmas but she is wearing uh some type of red panties black boots up to her knees 0.97

00:45:58.920 60 something years old, but her, her, her like panties that she's wearing, 0.99

00:46:06.280 I swear to you, they look like a used depend undergarment. You know, when they do the commercial 0.99

00:46:15.640 and, and you, they pour a liquid into the depend undergarment and then they lift it up and there's

00:46:22.760 no water but it got kind of bulky it got kind of fat and bloated like a ballpark frank uh that is

00:46:31.680 what madonna looks like it looks like she's wearing a used a used red depend undergarment

00:46:38.560 as she dances around to dance a tyria i guess her song whatever it might be holy smoke

00:47:57.900 Of course, I love it.

00:48:00.800 What was, Connie, can I ask you a question, Connie?

00:48:04.660 Yes, you may.

00:48:05.720 What was your favorite brand back in the day?

00:48:10.600 Oh, Newport.

00:48:14.960 Newports.

00:48:15.600 Uh-oh. 1.00

00:48:16.460 You're scaring me.

00:48:17.860 Menthol, huh?

00:48:19.000 Well, back in the day, it didn't mean what it means now.

00:48:21.820 All right.

00:48:23.540 Sounds like maybe two, three packs a day, Connie.

00:48:27.780 Oh, God, never.

00:48:29.460 Oh, okay.

00:48:30.280 Never.

00:48:30.960 Always kept it under control.

00:48:32.600 Oh, you did?

00:48:33.280 Okay.

00:48:33.620 Just say, you know, you got that certain Lucille Ball tone to your voice.

00:48:38.620 Ricky.

00:48:39.660 I mean, after I Love Lucy.

00:48:41.120 I'm talking the Lucy show.

00:48:49.020 I'm not goofing on you.

00:48:50.240 Well, maybe I'll goof in a little bit, but I love you.

00:48:52.720 What do you have to say this evening from storm-torn Long Island?

00:49:01.200 Kamala Harris.

00:49:02.860 Yes. 1.00

00:49:03.340 If she is not drinking, she's drugging.

00:49:07.340 The stuff she says, that can't be somebody under a normal frame of mind

00:49:12.360 coming out with stuff like this.

00:49:14.100 no and you could hear her slurring the guy sitting next to her he's like oh my god what

00:49:27.540 yeah i know i know connie i hear you it's uh yes she sounded she was slurring her words

00:49:41.980 they say i i have to cut you off you've had enough i've seen it happen before she's uh on

00:49:48.360 something i think you you got something either that or she takes something to calm herself down

00:49:53.920 and it has a reverse effect i don't know but that's not normal that she was not protecting

00:49:59.820 herself in a normal way it's not very scary to think if she was ever the president of the united

00:50:05.560 the states did we dodge a bullet there connie or not big time yeah big time i hear you all right

00:50:40.140 there newports that's when they used to have the newport commercials that were uh

00:50:46.840 the newport commercials uh and ads on the back of magazines and it showed like a guy and a girl

00:50:54.060 you know wholesome american guy and girl by a lake with a chevy pulled up next to it and they

00:51:00.580 were just sitting on a blanket smoking newports i was like oh that's that seems nice and then

00:51:07.340 cool and newport just became like oh you don't want to be in a place where you look down and

00:51:12.980 see a lot of cool or newport butts on the ground just saying that not making any insinuations here

00:51:20.760 actually i am but uh yeah newport back then you could smoke in newport

00:51:27.540 i hated bumming cigarettes from my aunt or somebody uh uh your friend's mom and it was

00:51:34.860 a cigarette you hated like newport or cool or virginia slim remember because we called them 0.98

00:51:41.940 vagina slims because you know if you smoked them god knows what would happen all right 0.98

00:51:47.700 don't you go anywhere plenty more to come it is the anthony cumia show thanks for tuning in 0.99

00:51:53.160 appreciate that if you're up there in the uh northeast oh boy you got that nor'easter thing

00:52:01.680 that whole thing everyone loves to panic everyone loves to panic the news gets you panicky

00:52:08.640 all your buddies and pals on social media what's going on and now with ai it's just uh i've seen

00:52:15.520 so many videos now i have a very discerning eye i can identify ai in uh oh lickety split

00:52:24.920 uh i've seen some videos of new york city where it looked like a whirlpool circling a subway

00:52:33.620 station stairwell on the street and it was uh sucking in all kinds of stuff newspaper machines

00:52:41.780 and garbage cans and people, and you read the comments,

00:52:47.800 and it's, oh, my God, I can't believe what's happening up there.

00:52:52.340 Be safe, everyone.

00:52:54.340 Oh, my God, they should put police tape around that

00:52:58.340 so people can't get so close.

00:53:02.900 Maybe AI is a problem.

00:53:04.900 You know, I've been a proponent of artificial intelligence

00:53:09.000 for quite some time here.

00:53:11.780 Because I see it as something that will be very useful to humanity, to average IQ and above humanity.

00:53:21.240 And now that I see some of the comments coming in on social media when an obvious AI video is posted, I go, oh, boy.

00:53:31.340 See, I wasn't considering that. 1.00

00:53:32.720 I wasn't considering that people are dumb, that there are some stupid people out there 1.00

00:53:41.540 that are going to see this and think it's real or at least not double check it. 1.00

00:53:46.380 I've seen some social media posts and I've gone, whoa, that that doesn't look good.

00:53:53.600 But I don't immediately comment on it until I check.

00:53:57.940 There are ways to check.

00:53:59.440 You could use AI to let you know if what you're looking at is AI.

00:54:04.760 Seems counterproductive.

00:54:06.160 Seems like maybe, you know, AI might go, yeah, yeah, that's not AI.

00:54:11.260 Go ahead, post it.

00:54:12.940 Yeah, that's the ticket.

00:54:15.300 But you could usually, there's some giveaway.

00:54:19.860 Maybe in the future it'll get harder to be able to tell,

00:54:23.040 but there are just a lot of people out there that don't know.

00:54:26.880 They don't know.

00:54:27.580 and that could could get a little dodgy in time anywho uh let's look at what's been going on

00:54:38.340 with the uh so sad the lynchings that have been happening around this country i see a lot of

00:54:46.620 people commenting on those it's so sad uh like camilla harris said it's uh jim crow making a

00:54:54.160 come back and um just a shame you know the congressional black caucus had a meeting

00:55:02.240 recently dedicated to the problem the issue of lynchings going on in this country modern day

00:55:10.860 lynchings that are happening they all got together decided that was how they would best spend their

00:55:16.240 time and resources resources resources instead of other things that might be important and of 0.70

00:55:28.080 paramount importance to the black communities of which they represent their constituency 0.58

00:55:34.160 but uh lynchings i mean that's your existential threat for the uh community and the congressional

00:55:43.000 black caucus and congresswoman presley of course old chrome dome bronze dome what would you call

00:55:50.500 her copper dome uh she's out there and she's saying that these lynchings have to stop 0.99

00:55:59.540 and uh you know i want to help i want to be an ally so i look for lynchings i look for them 0.94

00:56:08.940 I research and try to find out where they are, when they happened, and how I can best prevent any new ones from happening. 0.99

00:56:18.940 And gosh, golly, gee willikers, I haven't found a one. 1.00

00:56:24.540 Oh, Congresswoman Presley and company over at the Congressional Black Caucus, 0.98

00:56:30.180 they would lead you to believe that it's happening at an alarming rate.

00:56:33.860 And they point out that they have found a few people, African-Americans, that have been found hanging from trees.

00:56:44.240 And the local officials, you know, local yokels, say it was a suicide.

00:56:53.120 Hey, what do we got over there?

00:56:56.080 Let's take a look there, shall we?

00:56:58.740 Well, it looked like a suicide to me, boys, doesn't it?

00:57:02.400 yeah yeah yeah and they all laugh and and they write suicide they don't even know how to spell

00:57:07.720 it on the death certificate that's the impression i think that congresswoman presley and the

00:57:15.620 congressional black caucus have that's the impression they get that's who they think

00:57:20.800 is in charge of all these investigations uh of uh black suicides by hanging 0.62

00:57:27.700 that are going on in this country, 0.82

00:57:31.940 so they must be lynchings. 1.00

00:57:35.900 Ah, damn it. 0.99

00:57:37.440 You guys forgot to click the phone thing 0.99

00:57:39.360 at the main studio up there in New York.

00:57:43.080 I was going to say something,

00:57:44.520 but then I go,

00:57:45.120 oh, I don't want to be annoying.

00:57:46.580 And then it's not clicked,

00:57:48.080 and now I don't have phones.

00:57:51.300 Ah, Christ almighty.

00:57:54.780 You need a phone code watcher guy.

00:57:57.700 up there in new york anyway could you try to get my phones back i'd appreciate it 0.71

00:58:02.220 um so let's go to congresswoman presley where is she oh my god i got my sheet look at me i

00:58:11.740 got all flustered i got all flustered here it is blah blah blah blah where is it uh there it is ac7

00:58:20.420 the terror of lynching was meant to be a tool of intimidation uh of of example to to keep black

00:58:31.340 folk in their place even as we were gaining rights for our full citizenship and in fact

00:58:38.620 that was the point it was a backlash so these are people who traffic in um the great replacement

00:58:47.160 theory um who fear a black planet who fear a super majority of the most marginalized and so

00:58:57.140 that's why i cannot rest and um just accept at face value that these deaths are just suspicious

00:59:06.820 we have to investigate them and we have to know because it all feels like a very eerily painfully 0.51

00:59:16.240 reminiscent period in this country of the strange fruit of black men hanging from trees we had more 0.99

00:59:24.960 than 60 lawmakers that joined us you know in that demand for a federal investigation uh from the 1.00

00:59:30.440 department of justice and the fbi um also there is a federal law in the books um the uh and the

00:59:37.000 emmett till anti-lynching act and so uh it speaks specifically to lynching uh so this is our

00:59:45.120 suspicious cases and so we're just calling for not only a thorough investigation but for the law

00:59:50.980 to be enforced yeah very very suspicious suspicious it hearkens back she says it reminds us you know

01:00:02.620 why because it was a while ago like like a hundred years ago while ago maybe some that happened

01:00:12.200 a little in the mid, early to mid-20th century.

01:00:19.060 But truth be told, this hasn't been a thing for quite some time.

01:00:23.680 And as a matter of fact, they have been pushing something.

01:00:26.760 A woman in Mississippi was found hanging from a tree.

01:00:34.800 And every one of these left wing news agencies decided to present the story in a way that, as they said, hearkened back, hearkened back to lynchings and Jim Crow and all the other stuff from many years ago.

01:01:01.020 that was of course terrible and isn't happening now in 2026 it's not happening so instead of

01:01:13.840 presenting the story with facts and saying well uh this woman was found hanging she was killed

01:01:24.860 beforehand by three black guys over some drug kerfuffle uh and that was the story they still

01:01:34.420 tried to present it like well she was found hanging from a tree and what it does is it's 0.63

01:01:42.080 so painful because it it brings up feelings from the uh racist oppressive jim crow days instead

01:01:52.820 of presenting the story for what it was a drug problem gone sideways and three people that put

01:02:00.920 her in a tree for no racial reasons whatsoever obviously trying to cover their tracks maybe

01:02:07.180 maybe they were smart enough to know that the media and left-wing politicians would uh run 0.96

01:02:15.200 with the story like it was some kind of racially motivated hanging so they hung her in a tree

01:02:21.460 and uh everyone the usual suspects ran with it oh this has to be a lynching and all the other

01:02:31.620 suicides that they found over the course of uh the past few years have been investigated

01:02:39.100 and it was determined they were suicides there's many ways to tell they don't just go

01:02:44.760 well boy look what we got here why don't we just say it was a suicide there's evidence that people

01:02:53.820 can look at there's the person himself there's his family or her family saying oh my god yeah

01:03:02.520 he had uh problems mental issues he was depressed there are witnesses there are you know where did

01:03:10.720 you get the rope kind of stuff video surveillance of the areas it's not just one hillbilly sheriff

01:03:19.100 saying case closed there boys let's go get us a beer but that's what they'd like you to believe

01:03:26.860 that's the america they'd like you to believe we still live in because victimhood means

01:03:32.380 you could get some power and get some money out of it i'm not kidding back in a flash the anthony

01:03:39.120 kumi a show thank you for tuning in uh the daily mail they're they're big headline here madonna

01:03:48.340 68 gyrates on stage and sensational mtv vmas 2026 comeback 23 years after that steamy britney kiss

01:04:01.420 no one cares god no one really cares about this i'm talking about it because i want to let people

01:04:14.660 know how much no one cares is that weird is that a paradox uh type of situation that we're in there

01:04:24.560 holy moly

01:04:26.680 let's see what we got here

01:04:30.620 hey there it is

01:04:33.180 Matt New Hampshire

01:04:34.920 what's up

01:04:36.400 New Hampshire

01:04:37.820 you know

01:04:38.960 Anthony I gotta say

01:04:41.280 since you brought her up

01:04:42.460 after Kamala

01:04:43.620 old Kidney Bean

01:04:45.000 Presley there

01:04:47.360 the representative in Massachusetts

01:04:49.420 you just played

01:04:50.180 and Kamala as well

01:04:51.760 boy if they're not busy

01:04:53.520 pandering to the friendlies they wouldn't open their mouths and we would hear nothing from them

01:05:00.220 unless of course they were just outright lying it's all pandering it's all this racially motivated

01:05:06.840 race baiting pandering around election time uh to get uh votes that's that's it they don't care

01:05:15.520 they know it's all bs they know that they're lying when they open their yaps maybe not kamala 0.81

01:05:22.660 because she's really stupid but uh yeah yeah yes so well i it they i appreciate it man and if you 0.99

01:05:31.700 close your eyes and listen to kamala don't you feel her channeling of the great og barack obama 0.99

01:05:38.840 the pander and chiefs have a good night anthony thank you thank you matt uh well she she wishes

01:05:46.880 She had the ability to speak like Obama did. 0.78

01:05:54.180 Obama, you know, a lot of nonsense and BS came out of that yap of his.

01:06:00.820 But people were captivated by him. 0.90

01:06:04.140 They listened.

01:06:05.080 They thought he was a great orator.

01:06:07.040 uh and you know if you take a few seconds to listen to what he's actually saying

01:06:14.700 uh it's not all that profound it's not all that amazing it actually doesn't say much

01:06:23.600 a lot of these politicians aren't saying a lot when they're talking they they speak a lot about

01:06:31.720 hope that's a big thing especially with the democrats we can never lose hope hope is what

01:06:39.080 we have and everyone goes yeah hope hope screw hope hope is sitting there hoping something

01:06:46.060 happens do something actually do something besides just sitting there and hoping some politician 0.51

01:06:55.700 gives you a free ride or helps you out or throws you a bone or whatever.

01:07:02.280 We need to don't ever lose hope.

01:07:06.560 Oh, no, of course not.

01:07:08.580 Some communities have based their entire existence on hope for 100 years.

01:07:14.880 And where has it gotten them? 1.00

01:07:17.400 Hope, my ass. 1.00

01:07:19.520 That's what I say. 0.99

01:07:20.780 speaking of saint obama we do have uh something from him and this is one of those things that uh

01:07:30.300 a lot of people say on both sides but obviously obama's gonna say it's that uh living in a bubble

01:07:38.480 you know they're not like the boy in a bubble bubble boy the moops not bubble boy it's uh

01:07:48.080 So living in a bubble of people that think like you, they speak like you, they believe things like you do, and it just reinforces your own ideology, your own take on things that you must be right because everyone I'm talking to and listening to is saying exactly what I'm saying.

01:08:09.740 And yes, social media can do that. It all depends on what social media platforms you're going to, who you follow or block on your accounts. I follow a bevy of lefty dimwits, and I'm listening to what they're talking about, what they're saying, what they're doing.

01:08:32.020 I make a point of not insulating myself from what people are saying, 0.53

01:08:39.480 people that I don't agree with.

01:08:42.520 And Obama, he wants to say that that's a big problem,

01:08:46.820 but he kind of twists it around to where it's only a problem for people that don't agree with him.

01:08:54.300 So if you're in a bubble, he thinks if you disagree with him or his cronies,

01:09:01.180 his take his party uh that you must be in a bubble because all you need do is listen to obama

01:09:10.180 or or any of the other lefties and if you weren't in a bubble you would agree in a second you must

01:09:17.340 be in a bubble that's how they think so that's how they utilize the bubble um in a way that

01:09:24.460 makes you seem like you're not trying to see their side of it so let's hear obama obama here

01:09:33.960 let me see what number that is do you got it over there obama ac6 right and so the task we now have

01:09:42.000 is finding ways to capture what i think is the goodness of people the

01:09:48.300 and translating that into a politics that's operative, a system that is adapted to the times.

01:10:00.920 We can go into what are the ingredients of that.

01:10:04.360 I will say that the rise of social media and the siloing, the information bubbles that we all occupy

01:10:15.860 so that the reality of somebody who's reading the New York Times

01:10:20.280 is entirely foreign to somebody who's watching Fox News,

01:10:25.480 we're going to have to find ways to bridge that.

01:10:28.600 And we're going to have to create new town squares, essentially,

01:10:33.200 where everybody is having a common dialogue with certain rules.

01:10:37.640 And that becomes even more important as technology accelerates

01:10:41.160 and AI and deep fakes and all kinds of nonsense is coming.

01:10:45.860 Rules. Red alert. Red flag. Red alert. Warning. Warning, Will Robinson. Rules. No. No.

01:10:57.120 Did you see what rules did after Trump's 2016 victory to anyone that even leaned right on social media?

01:11:07.620 Oh, we don't like that there's bubbles. And all the social media owners at the time were lefties.

01:11:13.620 So let's pop any of the right wing bubbles so that they can't even have a platform anymore.

01:11:20.660 I hope people don't forget and haven't forgotten the wasteland of liberalism that social media became after Trump won.

01:11:35.500 They saw the power of social media and wiped out every right-wing, Republican, conservative voice that pushed Trump forward on that 2016 election.

01:11:55.360 They said, oh, my God, we didn't know what to do.

01:11:59.340 We were still doing TV spots. 0.99

01:12:01.560 oh my god we were doing tv interviews on the news and we got our asses handed to us 1.00

01:12:08.460 hillary was supposed to win that she's on stage with beyonce and jay-z 0.97

01:12:13.700 trump is on what a twitter and then they went oh crap what did we do we we didn't think that was

01:12:24.640 that big all right get on the horn get to facebook and twitter and instagram and tiktok

01:12:32.720 and every other platform and make sure they throw off every single right-wing guy but how do we do 0.81

01:12:39.300 that just whatever they say say that it's racist sexist homophobic islamophobic against terms of

01:12:46.900 service and throw them off and that's what they did i know i was one of them and we were gone

01:12:55.920 we were gone no voice on social media no way to refute what the liberal mainstream media was

01:13:05.100 throwing at the weak-minded and then you add in a little election fraud and uh lo and behold we

01:13:13.640 have joe biden for four uh demented years but the fact that obama is trying to say we need a dialogue

01:13:24.900 we need a a town hall type of social media where we can all you know be nice and discuss things

01:13:34.460 you know with some rules the word rules means regulation and means people getting thrown off

01:13:42.100 for saying things they don't agree with no rules that i say no rules all right where the hell do

01:13:51.880 you think you're going stick around and we will be right back with more of the anthony cumia show

01:13:56.460 it's the anthony cumia show and uh boy this there are some twisted stories uh out there

01:14:04.180 uh i guess there was a hazing at a frat house near the university of wisconsin

01:14:09.580 And police said 30 men were found partially clothed and covered in food and other liquids in the hot basement, which was filled with trash and debris.

01:14:24.560 Jesus, what is going on?

01:14:30.920 This is really twisted.

01:14:34.800 Alpha Epsilon Pi.

01:14:37.760 I'll have some of that Alpha Epsilon Pi.

01:14:41.600 The house's basement, they found 30 partially clothed men covered in food and waste and other things.

01:14:53.380 It really is quite disgusting.

01:14:58.460 My point on this whole thing, the vast majority of the men were 18 years old, police said.

01:15:04.120 uh several had visible injuries oh god this hazing thing look i didn't go to college

01:15:15.000 i never went to college uh obviously isn't it obvious people right there right out there

01:15:22.020 listening going i tell you didn't go to college uh so i don't know about hazing and

01:15:28.980 fraternities and whatnot but every fraternity hazing story i've ever heard

01:15:37.720 sounds really gay it sounds really gay two 20 year old men were arrested for hazing and disorderly 0.69

01:15:48.560 conduct police said the university issued a statement acknowledging the alleged hazing 0.79

01:17:53.180 who put

01:17:55.760 fizzies in the pool during the

01:17:57.840 alumni swim meet

01:17:58.960 they're fully committed

01:18:02.840 to addressing this hazing thing

01:18:05.660 you know

01:18:06.400 yeah I don't even need to 1.00

01:18:09.860 read any more of the gay 1.00

01:18:11.560 shenanigans going on 1.00

01:18:14.080 in that frat house

01:18:15.540 to know that, yeah, something they've tried.

01:18:21.320 I mean, there are rules in place, I assume.

01:18:24.260 These hazing disasters have gone on for years.

01:18:27.940 And some of them, unfortunately, they result in death 0.92

01:18:31.220 because some of these jackasses don't understand that alcohol is a poison.

01:18:39.320 It's fun for a while. 0.97

01:18:41.140 You know, you do a shot, fun.

01:18:42.840 you know you pass the bottle around with your buddies fun fun do another shot fun fun fun fun

01:18:51.040 fun dead what how do you go from fun to dead that's alcohol it's crazy like that uh and they

01:18:59.100 do that they haze uh and i can understand you know you're at that age the fraternity is this old

01:19:07.080 traditional thing and it demands that you torture the newbies that come in it was very funny

01:19:14.840 when flounder and pinto were woken up with the fire extinguisher and um and then the the omega

01:19:23.700 house where they spanked each other's underwear bottoms with a paddle thank you sir may have

01:19:32.660 another it is one of the greatest movies ever made uh so i understand there are some traditions

01:19:41.140 but uh it's 2026 can we move on and the fact that it's greek based you know the whole tradition

01:19:51.640 of the fraternity and the the names of the houses delta tau chi and all these things it's

01:19:59.720 It's all very Greek-based, and, well, you know what they were doing, right?

01:20:10.780 There's a reason that some of those sex dolls from years ago in the back of the magazine

01:20:17.880 said authentic Greek features, authentic Greek features.

01:20:26.200 it didn't mean it had you know a picture of the parthenon on its back

01:20:32.620 is that in greece i have no idea i never went to college anyway knock it off can i say that

01:20:43.160 as a gentleman of a certain age in this country hey knock it off there you go mount olympus how

01:20:52.060 about that that's in greece italy greece what's the difference anyway uh other things going on

01:21:00.600 that uh caught my eye over the course of the week was uh marjorie taylor green this is

01:21:10.560 she says that hondurans there's a honduran caravan oh yeah you could look it up yourself

01:21:19.680 a honduran caravan is making its way up from i gather honduras and uh going through mexico and

01:21:30.440 they're headed right toward the american mexican border and uh we saw this before but we saw it

01:21:37.980 during the biden puppet regime administration and it was a lot more than 400 people they're

01:21:45.940 reporting 400 Hondurans are making their way up and they're determined to come across the border

01:21:52.560 like they did in the Biden years and just go about their business as illegal aliens here in this

01:22:01.940 country. And I looked at this story and went, well, why would they do this knowing that Donald

01:22:11.620 trump has shut the border down closed it down to these illegals and it stopped the caravans

01:22:19.360 because there were people uh coming here in the thousands from central and uh from central

01:22:28.240 america and mexico trying to get up to the american border and uh that stopped but why

01:22:35.180 would it all of a sudden start again well maggie maggie taylor green has uh has an idea as to

01:22:44.380 what's going on let's see what uh she says here uh there it is we have not seen a caravan headed

01:22:55.280 to the u.s southern border in several years why now oh yeah there's an election coming and the

01:23:02.840 The GOP needs to scare you into voting because nothing else is working.

01:23:10.060 And then it says over 400 aliens, predominantly Hondurans,

01:23:13.220 entered Mexico on Thursday, ready to make their way to the U.S. border.

01:23:20.140 Something is incentivizing this movement.

01:23:23.340 This is not organic.

01:23:25.680 Yes, it is not.

01:23:26.980 And Marjorie Taylor Greene seems to think it's a GOP plot.

01:23:34.480 Now, all right, I'm not even going to going to sit here and say that that wouldn't be possible,

01:23:43.460 that that politicians, Republicans or Democrats, wouldn't pull something so ridiculous and underhanded as trying to scare people into voting.

01:23:55.920 but let's dissect this a little bit marjorie why would the republicans have to scare

01:24:07.020 their voters who already know and don't want illegals coming into this country

01:24:14.560 that's not a thing that we have to look at and go oh right i forgot i forgot the democrats

01:24:21.920 let in illegal aliens the republicans are the one that don't want illegals in oh i almost forgot i

01:24:30.340 was going to vote for the democrats uh but oh right right there's illegals on the way

01:24:36.620 so you're trying to what preach to the converted we all know that the second democrats get into

01:24:46.240 power that those caravans of illegals will start right back up 10 times what they were

01:24:54.420 because you got to replace every single illegal that was thrown out by ice this past two years

01:25:01.020 that's something that they want to have done uh as quickly as possible stop any of the deportations

01:25:11.100 reopen the border and replace all of the illegals that have been thrown out by ice

01:25:17.800 that is what happens the second they the democrats get power and i understand uh there are plenty of

01:25:28.220 people pissed off at trump i'm pissed off at trump for a few things for uh quite a few things

01:25:35.380 one of them i'm not pissed off about is the handling of the border it was closed immediately

01:25:42.140 that was a a campaign promise and it came to fruition very quickly quickly and uh that that

01:25:52.900 those caravans of of illegals coming over the border stopped and federal law enforcement was

01:26:00.080 given the job uh given the job to throw out illegals and i love how some of these people say

01:26:07.520 well only the bad ones only the ones that are criminals only the ones committing crime no 1.00

01:26:13.520 no we have to at this point we we are so screwed as a nation that we have to get rid of anyone here 0.99

01:26:24.180 illegally if you want to try to get in legally that's who we are as a country isn't it isn't it 1.00

01:26:33.400 i don't like it i think if we're going to be even if we're going to bring uh legal immigrants in 1.00

01:26:39.540 they should be vetted and they should come from countries that are at least on par with modern

01:26:48.400 first world countries oh there could be some tiffs going on in there where people go yeah we 0.74

01:26:55.020 got to get out of here it's not quite the safest place to live uh but i'm an engineer i'm a farmer

01:27:02.920 i'm a teacher i'm whatever it is do they have skills our immigration system wasn't supposed to

01:27:12.860 be come here to learn how to be uh an actual civilized human being that's not what it was

01:27:21.960 supposed to be it's supposed to be you have skills you have talents you live in a country

01:27:30.120 that is either dangerous or for some reason they don't want to take advantage of your skills and

01:27:38.560 talents and you can best use them elsewhere and then you come here to the wonder of america

01:27:46.640 and it it helps both sides you are helped because you are now able to make something of yourself

01:27:54.920 you have skills and talents they're recognized uh they're needed and people go wow this guy is

01:28:04.240 a great addition to our country and the country benefits because they now have somebody that can

01:28:10.280 do something to better their community they pay taxes that's how it's supposed to work 0.82

01:28:18.680 we're not some dump where you can dump off your third world uh savages and have them 0.98

01:28:27.300 run rampant oh we're going to teach them math and english and they're going to become that 1.00

01:28:33.920 no they're not failed experiment it's failed so illegals have to go and as far as legal immigration 0.98

01:28:46.900 goes only people that would benefit the nation and by that yeah they have to already have some 0.93

01:28:54.980 type of skill education at least be able to assimilate in a first world country i don't 0.97

01:29:03.420 see that happening i see the vast majority of immigrants illegals or legal immigrants nowadays

01:29:10.780 coming into the united states without any want need or ambition to assimilate to america well

01:29:19.780 what is america it's it's a melting pot of that no nah nah america is a country of amazing skilled

01:29:32.560 talented innovative people that have come from many different lands but it doesn't mean you

01:29:41.480 could take someone from any land and turn them into a great talented innovative person this is

01:29:50.180 the misconception that the left has been tossing out there and that's why you can't order a hamburger

01:29:58.000 at a fast food place.

01:30:01.040 That the person taking the order

01:30:03.140 has to look at hieroglyphics on the cash register

01:30:06.340 because they don't know what the number three means.

01:30:10.180 Change? Stop.

01:30:12.520 Just stop.

01:30:14.100 No one knows what it is.

01:30:16.380 These are some of the simplest, most basic things

01:30:19.620 that should be a prerequisite

01:30:25.720 to coming to this country to even pursue citizenship. 0.98

01:30:31.920 But no, Somalia, that's what we get, Somalia.

01:30:39.020 We build an amazing Mall of America up in Minneapolis.

01:30:43.540 You can look online, look at the grand opening

01:30:46.600 of the Mall of America in Minneapolis.

01:30:50.000 It was a spectacle, it was amazing.

01:30:52.480 It was such an American thing.

01:30:55.720 now you might as well be in the Moog.

01:31:00.300 You might as well.

01:31:01.580 They should just start burning tires and shooting at Blackhawk helicopters. 0.98

01:31:07.120 Do they have that?

01:31:08.120 Did they replace the rides with the games where you could try to shoot down a Blackhawk helicopter? 0.88

01:31:15.060 Because that's what the Mall of America is now in Minneapolis, Mogadishu, Minnesota. 0.95

01:31:21.760 So when you hear people talking about illegal or legal immigration, it's the same thing unless the legal immigrants are going to help this country. 0.51

01:31:36.600 And I've seen nothing of the sort. 0.60

01:31:38.020 And when Marguerite Taylor Greene says that the Republicans are trying to scare voters into voting against the Democrats by hiring, what, 400 Hondurans?

01:31:53.140 Do the Republicans have 400 Hondurans on call?

01:31:57.480 That's some Rolodex. 1.00

01:31:59.880 in order to get them to start marching toward America

01:32:05.200 on a 1,000-mile march so they can just, what, get here and go,

01:32:10.480 ah, you scared yet?

01:32:12.320 Vote Republican.

01:32:16.000 The lies we are being told are second to none.

01:32:20.640 And around election time, everything is a lie.

01:32:25.520 99% of it is a lie every other time.

01:32:28.520 And around any election, 100% of what you hear out of anyone that has any personal interest in the election, it is all a lie.

01:32:41.040 Back in a moment.

01:32:44.920 You want to hit that phone?

01:32:46.820 The Anthony Cumia Show.

01:32:49.300 All right.

01:32:51.140 I want a couple of bucks on one of these sites where you're able to bet on anything.

01:32:58.520 you know, Kalshi, Polymarket, those kind of sites,

01:33:03.120 I bet that Madonna would win the VMA Artist of the Year Award.

01:33:09.700 Now, I don't know now that you've heard the beginning of the show.

01:33:12.240 I have no clue what Madonna has been up to.

01:33:15.920 And I didn't say, oh, that video looks great and looks like it would be the best. 1.00

01:33:19.640 I just knew that MTV needing to get the nostalgia from the old people back 0.99

01:33:26.940 because no one is watching MTV. 0.99

01:33:29.040 Young people don't care about MTV.

01:33:31.060 They have every other electronic device they need 0.68

01:33:33.760 to get their music and videos and everything else from.

01:33:36.160 So this year, having brought on board Madonna

01:33:39.700 and Paris Hilton and Nirvana and everybody,

01:33:42.760 it's all about nostalgia.

01:33:44.420 So they were going to give Madonna the artist of the year.

01:33:48.960 And I knew this.

01:33:49.760 So I bet a few bucks on the prediction market site.

01:33:53.820 I won.

01:33:55.260 There you go.

01:33:55.980 you might as well let this cluster f work for you the world is coming apart at the seams

01:34:05.020 and i'm making bank on it that's what you need to do people see it for what it is

01:34:13.800 but then take advantage of it i made 20 bucks

01:34:18.900 it was only 20 bucks i'm talking here like uh my life savings was in that i bet it all on madonna

01:34:30.120 uh eric from orlando florida eric what's up man hey what's up man today i was just on a

01:34:38.300 three-week vacation and got back from germany a few hours ago oh how was it well i went to go

01:34:44.400 see my sister because she moved there and you know i saw my family and i'll tell you what it 1.00

01:34:48.320 really gets out of hand with immigrants over there i bet i mean frankfurt's always pretty 1.00

01:34:53.540 crazy but hamburg actually was a little more nuts i was staying over at this hotel like right by the 1.00

01:34:58.980 train station and i swear five city blocks i thought i was like in the west west part of africa

01:35:04.800 i was like i didn't recognize and then i saw this guy from my hotel room five floors up looking down 0.99

01:35:12.040 this old old man on crutch like walking crutches and these two like african immigrants just attack

01:35:18.940 him and like like stole his wallet and ran off oh jesus and then what was great though within about 0.86

01:35:25.040 within about a minute there there was a van that had six cops come right out of it and throw them

01:35:29.560 against the wall and then another van came out with another six cops and they just pretty much

01:35:34.660 held them down they're kind of doing their i didn't do nothing kind of speech because i could

01:35:38.620 understand yeah yeah did the poor old did the poor old guy have a little mustache and a sweeping

01:35:44.000 hairline no he had gray hair he probably looked like he was in his 70s oh he'd have to be 100

01:35:50.920 and something if it was who i'm just glad he was a i'm just glad the old man was okay though

01:35:56.140 ah it's crazy europe is uh right now we need right now i think we need the painter back

01:36:01.700 you know what europe is worse than the united states because these countries are so much smaller 0.95

01:36:08.920 and they can't take the influx of garbage that we can now we can only take it for so long but we can 1.00

01:36:16.020 take it for longer than they can they're being inundated with this uh third world garbage and 1.00

01:36:22.900 it is ruining every aspect of these countries the culture the economy the safety everything is being 1.00

01:36:30.720 destroyed and no one wants to really do anything about it but i see so many people complaining

01:36:36.060 about it and not wanting this to happen and they seem to be the majority why is it still happening

01:36:42.940 then i even have a muslim friend over there my friend from albania and he even he's for the afd

01:36:48.860 and i asked him just curious why which i am he goes i came here when i was a child i can i work

01:36:54.400 i pay taxes and i get sick of people freeloading it and it makes me mad he says yeah yeah it should

01:37:00.480 You know, there are a lot of people that are considered minorities in a lot of countries, and they're pissed about what's going on with immigration, illegal immigration, because they have to work hard to get what they have and where they want to end up, whatever jobs they want, if they want to buy houses. 1.00

01:37:21.400 Illegals make everything more expensive. 1.00

01:37:23.780 I don't care what they say about, well, they can work for cheaper and this. 1.00

01:37:28.200 They need to be housed. 0.67

01:37:29.460 they need to be clothed and fed by the welfare system a lot of times they're not making enough

01:37:34.880 especially for the size of families that they have and then we're supposed to be told that

01:37:40.500 they're a great benefit to our nation while you're paying a million dollars for a house

01:37:45.920 a few years ago went for a 300 000 and another thing that happens over there not as much now

01:37:53.160 is there'd be people that lived in their apartments like 30 years and they would kick 0.99

01:37:57.080 them out even though they paid their rent just to let you know refugees take the take the place

01:38:01.520 yeah hotels do that in new york city they uh let the government the state pay them to house

01:38:08.900 illegals so they're making uh money regardless and then there's less hotels for tourists

01:38:16.260 so supply and demand means that those hotels jack their prices up it's affecting everyone 0.95

01:38:23.460 that they're putting up illegals in the hotels in New York

01:38:27.420 because you're now paying $500 for a $300 hotel room 0.82

01:38:31.980 because there just aren't enough rooms

01:38:34.380 because the state's paying for illegals to stay in them.

01:38:37.480 It happens. 0.70

01:38:38.140 I got to go.

01:38:38.880 Thank you so much for the call, Eric,

01:38:48.100 I certainly wouldn't watch MTV.

01:38:50.700 Back in a moment.

01:38:53.460 it is the anthony cummia show thanks for tuning in and uh right away i think i gotta go to michael

01:39:00.320 in jersey he's got a little issue with what i said last break impossible michael what's up

01:39:08.580 yeah no what you said is fantastic i totally absolutely agree but it's not realistic and i'll

01:39:16.180 tell you why all right educated people from europe aren't coming there is only one country

01:39:22.240 One, where really, really educated people are leaving to come to America, and they have a reason.

01:39:30.040 You know what that country is?

01:39:31.500 South Africa?

01:39:32.740 No, no, no. It's Israel. 0.91

01:39:34.500 I go to NYU because I have cancer. 0.96

01:39:38.200 Two of the surgeons here are Israeli. 1.00

01:39:40.660 You know why they came here?

01:39:42.120 I asked them.

01:39:43.060 Because they're at war in their country.

01:39:45.540 If they were at war, the country is being bombarded.

01:39:48.500 They said, I came here after October 7th.

01:39:53.340 That's why they're leaving, because their country is at war, and it's dangerous to live there.

01:39:57.760 But the other European countries, there's no war going on.

01:40:01.520 So the educated people from whatever, England, Ireland, Scotland, whatever, they're not coming.

01:40:09.960 Europeans are no longer coming to this country. 0.99

01:40:13.660 The only time the people, the very few coming from Israel,

01:40:18.060 is because they don't want to be in a country that's constantly being bombed,

01:40:21.780 that's at war, where they can get killed.

01:40:24.400 The guy told me, I had a very good life in my country.

01:40:27.580 I wouldn't have come, but you get tired of being bombed,

01:40:30.640 and your life is constantly threatened, so I decided to come to the United States.

01:40:35.760 Yeah, both of them are surgeons.

01:40:38.760 You bring up a good point there, Michael, because, yeah,

01:40:41.760 why would you leave if you were a talented educated person why would you leave your country

01:40:49.100 uh i would think though maybe some of them might want to leave because they're being uh uh made to 1.00

01:40:57.020 live uh in a country where they're inviting in these third world people but they're not they're 1.00

01:41:04.760 not coming i haven't met anybody with swedish accents or or norwegian accents or or scottish

01:41:12.260 accents there's no people yeah you can tell you can tell if they're from europe they still have

01:41:17.360 they learn english but they always keep their accent i haven't met anybody with european

01:41:22.280 accents like i said the only ones i met and i said to him where are you from i said i'm from

01:41:26.820 israel i said oh he said i was a surgeon in israel i mean he says i was a top surgeon i came here

01:41:33.040 and of course the united states gladly accepted him i mean you can't get more educated than that

01:41:38.400 but he said i i would have stayed there i decided to be because of october 7th i had some russian

01:41:45.260 guy when i needed uh some uh medical uh issues taken care of with the old ticker uh i had a

01:41:53.800 russian guy he was awesome awesome loved him but but even if there's no more russians coming here

01:42:02.080 I know, no one seems to be coming over here.

01:42:04.380 I don't know, Michael.

01:42:05.960 Most of those Russians were Jews, for some reason. 0.98

01:42:09.560 They figured it's a better life in the United States than it is in Russia.

01:42:14.020 In the town I live in, we have a Russian community. 0.97

01:42:17.240 They're all Jewish.

01:42:19.400 Yeah, yeah, the Russians and the Jews, they were at loggerheads for quite a while. 0.99

01:42:24.280 Russians wouldn't let them leave. 0.99

01:42:25.740 I remember that years ago, the Russian Jewry. 0.99

01:42:28.940 Oh, the Russians won't let, the Soviet Union won't let the Jews leave. 1.00

01:42:33.440 Just let them go. 1.00

01:42:34.700 Who cares?

01:42:35.460 They'd rather come here.

01:42:36.900 I guess they have a better, of course they have a better life here. 0.75

01:42:39.640 Yeah, everyone from the old Soviet Union especially had a better life.

01:42:44.940 You're Irish.

01:42:46.380 Are Irish people coming here?

01:42:48.180 No. 0.99

01:42:49.100 Are Italians coming here? 1.00

01:42:50.520 No. 1.00

01:42:51.000 There's nobody coming. 0.89

01:42:52.540 It's not like it was in the early 1920s and that time period where the European,

01:42:57.760 it was all europeans coming they're not coming good point michael valid valid argument good

01:43:03.940 point and i hope uh i i hope uh you you uh get better uh from your medical turmoil that you're

01:43:10.740 going through sir but uh thanks for the call uh yeah yeah you know what maybe i'm delusional

01:43:16.620 i think michael's right though i think all these countries that we want the immigrants to come from

01:43:22.620 they're not just not coming they don't want to come over here there isn't some kind of a refugee

01:43:28.800 problem not yet anyway where they're saying oh my god we got to get out of uh germany to uh get to

01:43:36.200 america or we got to get out of france because we're being persecuted as uh educated intelligent

01:43:43.440 innovative white people i guess that isn't happening yet but um and then you got to look 0.96

01:43:51.660 and go, well, if I'm going to pick my ass up and move, is America even the move I want to make? 0.98

01:43:57.940 Because they're going through the same thing. Like I said earlier, we have a lot more real estate 0.70

01:44:02.820 to absorb a lot more garbage than these European nations, but that doesn't mean that you'd look 1.00

01:44:09.200 here and go, well, what am I leaving for? For the same thing in a couple of years?

01:44:13.860 uh i tell you we've been way way too charitable in the western world

01:44:22.720 um and we've listened to too many delusional people who think you could pick people up

01:44:30.100 from an uncivilized nation dump them into a civilized nation and they're just going to

01:44:36.440 magically become civilized, useful, productive people.

01:44:43.480 I really don't understand how that delusion is something.

01:44:49.220 I don't think they believe it.

01:44:50.440 I think it all, again, goes to power, votes, and money.

01:44:55.840 Power, votes, and money.

01:44:59.020 Hey, there's a new Netflix show.

01:45:02.440 uh you know i scroll through so many movie and tv show platforms uh every night and and your your

01:45:13.960 thumb can go numb a numb thumb uh from scrolling so much and all i'm looking for is something that

01:45:22.920 seems interesting compelling exciting entertaining and what do you get nonsense and then people say

01:45:34.400 why do you watch the same movies over and over again well if they put something out that was

01:45:41.720 good uh maybe i'd watch it so then here's something that i thought was an interesting

01:45:50.400 topic i go oh they're making another movie about the unabomber this ought to be good

01:45:58.220 i've watched documentaries on the unabomber it seems um like an interesting topic this guy of

01:46:07.100 course he was uh a guy that was upset with the way corporations were taking over there wasn't

01:46:18.140 a way to live a simple life anymore as a an american and he was very upset so upset that

01:46:25.760 he took his expertise and built bombs and started sending them off to various ceos of companies and

01:46:32.400 other people that had some you know power that he felt was unfair uh with these businesses and how

01:46:40.300 the corporate world had kind of taken over uh he lived in a little shack in the middle of the woods

01:46:47.160 and the way he was caught is fascinating he wrote a manifesto and sent it to the media

01:46:56.040 to be printed and the media put it out and people were reading this thing and his brother's wife 1.00

01:47:05.500 was the one not even his own brother his brother's wife knew oh your brother that friggin lunatic 0.99

01:47:12.580 and his brother's wife read this manifesto not thinking for a second it was her brother-in-law 0.99

01:47:19.520 the unabomber and read this thing and went this is your brother she she recognized phrases the

01:47:28.520 way he worded things his ideology because god knows if this guy ever sat down at a thanksgiving

01:47:33.960 table he wasn't going to shut up and you were going to remember everything he said but you know

01:47:39.680 watch when he passes the explosive mashed potatoes.

01:47:44.160 But the wife told the husband, the brother, like, this is your brother.

01:47:50.900 And that led to the quick investigation and apprehension of the Unabomber in the woods.

01:47:59.600 And now they're making a movie, a dramatization about the story

01:48:05.220 and the investigation that went into the apprehension of the Unabomber.

01:48:10.180 And what do they got to do?

01:48:12.480 What do they got to do?

01:48:14.320 Can they present it like it happened?

01:48:18.560 Can they just cast the characters as the people who were actually involved

01:48:27.060 and do the story?

01:48:29.980 Why?

01:48:30.560 Why, of course not.

01:48:34.100 Here we go.

01:48:35.220 Netflix Unabomber movie releases today, and immediately noticed the second cast listing is Shalane Woodley as FBI agent Joanne Miller.

01:48:48.480 So, of course, my woke alarm went off, and I asked Google AI, did they make up another female FBI agent character for this?

01:49:01.120 Google, yes, the character of Joanne Miller is entirely fictional.

01:49:07.760 Shalane Woodley's character was created as a composite fictional FBI agent

01:49:13.480 and written into the classic true crime trope of the lone brilliant investigator

01:49:18.940 battling institutional complacency and sexism.

01:49:23.200 in the film female agent 1.00

01:49:25.740 Miller is the one who zeroes 0.98

01:49:27.740 in on the linguistics

01:49:29.720 of the manifesto

01:49:31.240 in real life

01:49:33.420 it was the male FBI

01:49:35.720 profiler James R. Fitzgerald

01:49:38.320 who heavily pioneered

01:49:40.000 forensic

01:49:40.520 linguistics in analyzing

01:49:43.460 Ted Kaczynski's writing

01:49:44.940 in other words more stolen

01:49:47.380 valor disguised as 1.00

01:49:49.340 female empowerment

01:49:50.520 And if they're willing to make this change, what other lies will their movie tell? 1.00

01:49:58.200 This has been a problem for a while.

01:50:02.780 And I've spoken to my buddy Gavin McInnes about this a few times.

01:50:08.800 A lot of the ideas and pre-production, you know, the first footsteps into making these productions and these movies,

01:50:19.840 are made years before they actually come out.

01:50:23.900 And this is another example of the industry 1.00

01:50:28.020 thinking Kamala Harris was going to be the president.

01:50:31.680 So we're still seeing, it's kind of the tail end two years later, 0.56

01:50:36.020 but we're still seeing this female empowerment. 1.00

01:50:41.400 There's a female president, 1.00

01:50:43.020 so we got to put out all these female empowerment movies, 1.00

01:50:46.560 even if we have to change the facts, you want to have a female linguist investigator 1.00

01:50:54.400 that solves a crime? Make up a story. You're doing the actual investigators a great disservice 1.00

01:51:04.200 by casting people that never existed to portray the actions of real heroes and real people that

01:51:14.780 did the investigation and came up with their conclusions and finally took a guy that was

01:51:22.080 killing people and put him into prison where he belongs. 0.52

01:51:26.960 But it's more important to be like, yay, girl power, isn't it? 0.99

01:51:33.020 Yeah.

01:51:34.200 Back in a minute.

01:51:38.420 It's the Anthony Cumia show.

01:51:41.200 Thanks for tuning in.

01:51:42.960 We got, oh, could you hit the phone button?

01:51:44.780 I'd hate to watch it disappear before my eyes again without saying anything.

01:51:50.240 Thank you, home base out there.

01:51:53.500 Home base.

01:51:57.980 Let's take a couple of calls here.

01:51:59.800 This is good.

01:52:00.360 I might want to talk about this.

01:52:02.080 Mike.

01:52:02.700 Mike in St. James.

01:52:04.900 Is that St. James, Long Island?

01:52:07.080 Yes, 60 miles east of Manhattan.

01:52:10.460 I got you.

01:52:11.560 I've been to St. James a few times, kind of near, what, Smithtown, around there?

01:52:16.400 Yeah, well, we're part of Smithtown, actually.

01:52:18.300 Part of Smithtown.

01:52:19.560 It's the hamlet of Smithtown.

01:52:21.940 Were you there your whole life?

01:52:23.300 Did you go to high school there?

01:52:25.160 Oh, no, I'm a native of St. Albans, Queens.

01:52:27.760 Okay, because I know a lot of the people that were young and went to high school there,

01:52:32.760 what they would do is they would go to, on 25 in Smithtown,

01:52:38.280 and there's a big statue of a bull.

01:52:40.360 and uh they'd paint the bull's balls red yes i remember that yes yes yes so how you doing mike

01:52:51.020 what's up good anthony is this an appropriate question if the republicans lose one or both

01:52:57.780 houses in november what will donald trump's strategy be for two years all right now i'm

01:53:05.320 trying to find some lemonade in these lemons but here's what i i don't think this is a purposeful

01:53:14.080 strategic thing that the republicans are doing but if it works out this way the end justifies

01:53:21.160 the means all right here's here's what i'm gonna say let's say we lose everything in these midterms

01:53:28.120 uh trump can just veto everything just veto anything the house and the senate come up with

01:53:36.460 if uh they're uh democrat majorities now after two more years of lame duck trump and seeing what 0.91

01:53:45.020 these democrats are trying to do maybe even let them get one or two horrible uh laws through or

01:53:51.820 policies through or what have you and then in 2028 when the president uh presidential election 1.00

01:53:58.360 comes about maybe then the people will go oh my god two years of these democrat idiots with the 0.99

01:54:04.560 house and the senate i'm not voting for them you know fickle the american people could be when it 1.00

01:54:09.600 comes to voting they don't like something a couple of years they're going to vote for the other side

01:54:15.640 Maybe it's a way to get the Democrats in some form of power where they could remind America how effed up they are and how they screw things up so that in 2028, when it's really important, when you get a House, Senate and presidential election, people will go, oh, God, thanks for the reminder. 0.99

01:54:35.900 We had two years of what pieces of crap the Democrats are. 0.99

01:54:39.500 Say you, Mike. 1.00

01:54:40.500 uh sounds pretty good but uh will trump still have full control of the military

01:54:46.820 oh you think they might impeach him and uh you know try to uh uh finagle power away from maybe

01:54:55.000 even a coup d'etat is that what you're saying mike no impeachment is not removal from office

01:55:02.020 and i don't think oh you're talking 25th 25th amendment right all right well i think the

01:55:09.800 american people are at least the sane ones obviously the left will be cheering but the

01:55:16.200 sane american people they wouldn't like seeing that i think they'd see it very politically 0.53

01:55:21.120 motivated why didn't you do this to demented alzheimer riddled joe biden and he was uh obviously

01:55:29.060 uh in the throes of dementia during his administration so uh i don't know again the

01:55:34.700 american people can be very fickle when it comes to the the voting booth um i don't know mike

01:55:39.660 okay we'll have to see what happens uh we will could donald use his uh executive orders to uh

01:55:47.320 get things accomplished or would they all be challenged well he still can they'll all be

01:55:52.980 they're being challenged now they don't even have the house in the senate and they're being

01:55:56.840 challenged at every point by these uh democrat activist uh soros bought judges and whatnot so

01:56:04.100 i don't know we're in a a really strange place mike i don't remember anything like this in my

01:56:10.300 entire life looking back on uh politics and the presidents uh over the course of history and

01:56:16.020 how they worked with the senate and uh and uh congress but it's crazy these days i don't know

01:56:23.200 what's next okay we'll have to wait and see i guess yep thank you mike have fun out there

01:56:29.360 St. James, it's nice.

02:01:29.900 and she will continue to ravage the state of New York. 1.00

02:01:35.780 Here's what she's up to now. 0.97

02:01:38.940 She and, of course, the great Attorney General Letitia James,

02:01:45.380 uh they thought it would be prudent to sue polymarket and uh these prediction market sites

02:01:56.380 i had just talked about the fact that i won i won my prediction market bet when i said that

02:02:05.400 madonna would win um video of the year video artist of the year whatever it is who really

02:02:15.140 cares. But Governor Hochul has said, let me read it from her post. She goes, calling it a

02:02:25.340 prediction market doesn't change the facts. If you're taking bets in New York, our gambling

02:02:32.600 laws apply. Today, New York State Attorney General Letitia James and I sued Polymarket

02:02:41.000 for running an illegal gambling operation, and this is the best part,

02:02:46.440 and preying on vulnerable New Yorkers.

02:02:53.140 You want a little shorthand on what that means?

02:02:58.240 Where's our cut?

02:03:00.420 Hey, we want our taste. 0.89

02:03:02.700 This is mob tactics. 0.77

02:03:06.040 This is the mafia.

02:03:07.680 you're running a bookie operation you're running a book and how dare you not give us our cut

02:03:18.540 this is what if if you know let's say the genovese family on their turf you decide

02:03:29.300 to run a gambling operation you're taking money for bets you're betting on whatever horse racing 0.60

02:03:36.080 uh sports betting you think you're just going to be able to do that without a

02:03:43.080 representative of the genovese family oh so you're taking a few bets are you that's nice

02:03:51.360 you got a nice little operation here how about i put your foot in your back pocket

02:03:56.880 that's what would happen and this is the government way to use mob tactics and get the

02:04:07.960 same result governor kathy hochel and attorney general letitia jane have decided uh that you

02:04:17.040 cannot run a bookie operation anywhere in the country but especially in new york without

02:04:25.260 having to give them their taste.

02:04:27.880 Now, you might think, well, Anthony, why wouldn't Governor Hochul and Attorney General

02:04:36.560 Letitia James demand they pay their taxes?

02:04:41.120 If you make money, well, you damn well better pay taxes to New York State. 1.00

02:04:48.280 And that would be a great argument.

02:04:50.140 if prediction markets were not paying New York State their taxes.

02:04:56.480 They are.

02:04:57.980 They absolutely are.

02:05:00.360 That isn't the case.

02:05:01.740 That's the law.

02:05:03.980 What Governor Hochul and Attorney General Letitia James wants 0.69

02:05:11.260 is above and beyond the taxes. 0.94

02:05:15.480 This is gambling.

02:05:16.640 Of course, we should just be able to take more money than just taxes.

02:05:24.340 Why?

02:05:25.820 Why is that?

02:05:28.240 Well, I took a closer look.

02:05:32.420 I wanted to see if these betting sites, especially the ones that are already accepted,

02:05:43.000 They've already been blessed by Kathy Hochul and Attorney General, Latisha Jane.

02:05:56.440 But the prediction market sites have not been.

02:06:01.360 So what's the difference?

02:06:03.520 What is the difference between a mobile sports betting site and a prediction market?

02:06:09.540 well uh here we go uh this is the clearest case case of above and beyond ordinary tax

02:06:23.600 so this is an example what is happening in new york with sports betting so if you have draft

02:06:30.580 kings or something like that new york gets they they tax them but then they get a cut of the action

02:06:38.280 Because you're the boss.

02:06:40.180 You're the mob boss.

02:06:41.700 You've got to get a cut.

02:06:45.440 Operators of sports betting sites that New York accepts, 51% of their gross revenue, 51%.

02:06:58.820 They take over half of it.

02:07:02.220 it's the largest cut of any state in the country for sports betting mobile sites

02:07:10.040 so how dare how dare polymarket uh try to uh work around the mob boss and uh and run a business

02:07:25.400 Now, I don't think it's good.

02:07:27.920 I don't think this is a healthy thing.

02:07:30.500 But they sell soda.

02:07:33.060 That's not healthy.

02:07:34.600 They sell pineapple slices and Kool-Aid.

02:07:37.860 That's not very healthy either.

02:07:39.960 So it's not about healthy or, as Kathy Hochul said, preying on vulnerable New Yorkers.

02:07:48.520 Why, then, are the other sites okay?

02:07:52.620 Why isn't Kathy Hochul saying, no, even if you pay us 51% of your gross revenue, it's still not okay.

02:08:01.720 I refuse because you're preying on vulnerable New Yorkers.

02:08:06.200 There's no difference except that they're taking a 51% cut of the action.

02:08:16.260 So for that, all of a sudden the New Yorkers don't become very vulnerable, do they?

02:08:22.620 uh collections from mobile sports betting in new york for fiscal year 2026 you want to

02:08:35.400 mull that around in your head a little try to take take a guess take a little guess all right

02:08:40.060 you got it here's what it was 1.3 billion dollars in one year that's one year 1.3 billion dollars

02:08:52.260 they got from mobile sports betting and enrolls polymarket and calci and these other prediction

02:08:59.720 markets going what this isn't gambling we're just you know it's a prediction market you bet on

02:09:07.020 anything and you can cash out before your bets over and we you know anything please we're just

02:09:14.860 trying to run a business here nope because Don Hochul and her consigliere attorney general

02:09:24.880 have determined that they need their cut or we go to war you want to go to war I need to get

02:09:34.300 organized and that's what's going on that's the only reason the only reason in-person sports

02:09:43.240 betting at casinos is taxed at a much lower 10 percent table game rate which is why the mobile

02:09:49.100 market produces far more cash for the state so if you're gambling and you're losing money in a

02:09:56.620 casino 10 of that is going to the state of new york uh whereas 51 on mobile betting

02:10:05.260 is going. And like I said, all they want

02:10:09.420 is the money. Whenever Governor

02:10:13.380 Hogle talks about safety,

02:10:17.500 protecting vulnerable

02:10:21.180 New Yorkers, it's all about money.

02:10:25.100 This is the same thing I was talking about last week with the AI industry.

02:10:30.300 Governor Hogle last week, oh boy,

02:10:33.320 we need to regulate artificial intelligence these data centers it's dangerous some of the

02:10:42.080 very people working in the business are saying that in 10 years ai can kill everyone on earth

02:10:49.280 and we want to keep you safe so we want to regulate it and legislate it and make sure that

02:10:57.220 And that way, above and beyond taxes, they'll have to pay regulation fees.

02:11:07.440 They'll have to pay fines for their climate, carbon footprint.

02:11:13.500 They'll have to pay for licensing.

02:11:17.720 All things that give money to the state.

02:11:20.380 Do you think she cares?

02:11:21.640 Do you think Hochul or Eterna, do you think they care about people?

02:11:31.960 You know, when they say, we care, I care about you.

02:11:36.520 Do you think they really care?

02:11:38.920 Be honest.

02:11:39.980 Of course not. 0.99

02:11:41.280 They care about the revenue coming in for their ridiculous liberal bullcrap programs. 1.00

02:11:50.000 That's what it is. 0.99

02:11:51.640 If they cared about people, they certainly wouldn't release murderers back out on the

02:11:57.820 street, and they're doing that every day, every day.

02:12:04.600 Some criminal with a lengthy, violent criminal record gets released from prison or jail,

02:12:13.340 zero bail, and they're able to walk around, and if they commit another crime, they're

02:12:19.080 able to walk around again right up until they murder someone and then no one says oh that

02:12:26.600 shouldn't happen where's the consequence where's the responsibility yeah maybe we shouldn't have

02:12:33.260 let that person out well if you wanted uh to make your your constituents safe if you wanted to

02:12:43.260 protect vulnerable new yorkers wouldn't that be the the the first thing you did was make sure

02:12:50.760 murderers aren't roaming around the streets but they did that tells me right there if i was 0.85

02:12:58.860 retarded enough to not know it already that would tell me that they really don't care about people 0.93

02:13:07.100 when politicians say they care it makes me i want to crack my own teeth by biting down hard 0.98

02:13:15.900 i i want blood from biting my own cheek because i'm so annoyed with these people we care

02:13:25.320 how many people do you really care about care about my family about my friends other than that

02:13:36.140 I'm more shook up when I see animals being mistreated on social media

02:13:42.840 than I am seeing people being mistreated.

02:13:46.040 Number one, I don't know them.

02:13:50.140 Number two, they're usually involved in something

02:13:53.140 where maybe a little tune-up is in order.

02:13:57.960 Not like poor animals.

02:14:00.360 But whenever politicians get on that whole thing of caring,

02:14:03.400 they care about people.

02:14:06.140 Oh, stop it.

02:14:07.820 If they cared, they'd lock up violent criminals. 0.93

02:14:11.780 They wouldn't sue Polly Market. 1.00

02:14:14.760 So you couldn't place a bet that old Gammy Madonna is going to win a video music award.

02:14:24.140 How dare they try to keep me from making that bet? 0.96

02:14:27.900 Nah.

02:14:29.340 That's right.

02:14:32.760 Silas?

02:14:33.640 Is that your name?

02:14:35.220 Staten Island?

02:14:36.140 what's up yeah silas silas what's up yeah well there's one thing i think it was uh paulie

02:14:45.440 castorano got eliminated because he got a little too greedy yeah well we don't have to uh we don't 0.94

02:14:53.380 have to use violence or guns of course not just just knock her butt out of there and put bruce 1.00

02:14:58.620 blakeman in it would be great and then letitia james there's a woman her i forgot her name she's 1.00

02:15:05.960 running for letitia's old because this girl who's running for her seat is not only intelligent 1.00

02:15:13.540 and actually knows the job letitia is not a very intelligent woman no and she's not good for new 1.00

02:15:20.660 up so let's get rid of the both of them without firing a shot nobody and you know when we talk 0.97

02:15:28.900 about now there are times i have to talk like a black man when i'm talking to mr uh obama and 0.99

02:15:35.660 there's other times you know i gotta talk intelligent when i'm talking to other people 0.99

02:15:38.860 so remember obama wanted black men to be so stupid to vote for kamala harris yeah he actually 1.00

02:15:46.620 thought we were going to do it yep yeah so we can eliminate all of these problems yeah you know 1.00

02:15:54.400 he did not want to say that you know he did not want to say vote for kamala harris i i he's one

02:16:02.700 of those guys that you know he must but he plays the game he knows politics so he's got to stand

02:16:09.300 there and go this is the most qualified person ever to run for president he said that he said

02:16:16.600 She was the most qualified person to ever run for president.

02:16:20.380 Take all the presidents we've had over the history. 0.95

02:16:23.400 She is better than all of them. 0.98

02:16:25.920 Come on, Obama.

02:16:28.280 And you know he doesn't believe it.

02:16:29.720 Of course not. 1.00

02:16:30.500 He wants you to be stupid. 1.00

02:16:31.480 He's a liar. 1.00

02:16:32.880 He affects the easily manipulated and stupid people. 1.00

02:16:38.600 Those are the people that think he's amazing and sincere and wonderful. 1.00

02:16:42.400 And meanwhile, he's a liar, just like most politicians. 0.97

02:16:45.400 And he's not that bright. 0.99

02:16:46.300 I'm not even faulting him. 1.00

02:16:47.580 He's a liar like most politicians. 0.99

02:16:50.560 Yes, he's not that bright when he speaks. 1.00

02:16:52.580 He's got to think about what he's going to say.

02:16:55.020 No, he says things people want to hear, but he's not saying much.

02:17:00.360 I hear you.

02:17:01.320 Silas, thank you, my friend.

02:17:02.760 Thanks for the call, man.

02:17:04.380 There you go.

02:17:05.400 Isn't it crazy?

02:17:06.660 Isn't it crazy this is the place we're at?

02:17:09.680 i think back and think like when i was a kid i i wasn't very interested in politics

02:17:16.700 i kind of got interested in watergate because that was you know and i was a kid at that point

02:17:22.880 what was i like i don't know 12 13 something like that and i was interested in it because

02:17:29.440 it was on the news every day and it was different you know and it was funny to you know do the

02:17:34.860 nixon voice you won't have dick nixon a kick around anymore i hope roger stone doesn't get mad at me

02:17:41.380 but it was funny as a kid you want to do impressions and things like that but i just do

02:17:48.920 not remember the the presidency or or potential candidates for the presidency uh candidates and

02:17:58.080 people that are in the House and the Senate being such complete wastes of space, being 1.00

02:18:04.580 so stupid, so such liars. 1.00

02:18:08.640 I just never and look, I remember watching talk shows and Rowan and Martin's laughing 1.00

02:18:17.260 when I was nine years old or something, and they would make fun of politicians and they

02:18:21.920 would make jokes about how they lie and cheat and scandals and things.

02:18:26.860 so i understand it's it's something that's always been around but never never at uh to this magnitude

02:18:35.940 we we are in a place in this country a time and place where there is no uh no one you can look at

02:18:45.640 and go there's the shining light there's the person or people that can pull us out of this

02:18:53.460 especially when people say they want to unite the nation, reunite the nation,

02:19:01.300 get people back together, talking reasonably to each other,

02:19:08.100 not feeling so much like we're on different teams, on different sides.

02:19:14.620 I cannot fathom that right now.

02:19:18.220 i can't fathom that in the i'll say near future but even mid future we might be at a point where

02:19:28.700 we cannot fix this and become a country where we are speaking to each other again even if you don't

02:19:37.560 agree politically there is a hatred of each other if you are left right republican democrat

02:19:46.900 conservative liberal communist cool person all right maybe the last one was a little

02:19:53.140 biased but uh i don't see it and i don't see a leader that can bring us together again any one 1.00

02:20:02.300 of these idiots that come up to a mic at a debate or at a rally or at a speech and say i will bring 1.00

02:20:09.200 us back together we need to be united shut up ain't happening this needs a much bigger dose 1.00

02:20:19.120 of medicine than some politician is going to uh deal out all right where are you going back in a

02:20:26.340 moment the anthony cumia show i'm you know i'm scrolling through uh social media during the

02:20:34.720 break and uh you know mtv the the vmas the video music awards are going on and madonna's the big

02:20:42.880 get this year i mean really that was necessary to pull her out of her coffin and uh prop her up

02:20:51.840 but uh this guy this guy posted he goes moments ago mtv has madonna on live tv a live tv with

02:21:02.080 laser butt plugs who does this type of behavior appeal to and i'm watching the video and indeed

02:21:09.220 uh madonna on stage with backup dancers and all the rigmarole that goes on in a big

02:21:17.000 award show performance and there are butt plug lasers uh i don't even know what to say

02:21:25.500 i don't even know what to say fascinating just absolutely fascinating

02:21:33.180 holy crap bob pitts boy what's up bob how are you doing i love your show thank you man what i

02:21:43.640 wanted to say was i believe that the day after the uh this coming election what the president 0.93

02:21:49.100 ought to do is pack the court with four more new justices because the democrats have been talking

02:21:57.440 about it and they'll do it uh if they win the presidency in uh 2028 yep i think you're right

02:22:07.640 but i don't think anyone wants to be the first person or party to pull that trigger because that

02:22:15.860 can start an avalanche of other things, you know, as far as, I don't know, term limits

02:22:24.700 on the Supreme Court.

02:22:29.860 Well, I kind of what what has the Supreme Court done over the course of its history

02:22:37.520 that would lead anyone to believe they would operate better with more people or term limits?

02:22:45.180 I think it's worked out pretty well over the course of history.

02:22:48.420 You're going to win and you're going to lose based on your ideology when the Supreme Court makes its decisions.

02:22:55.460 You're going to agree with some of them.

02:22:57.120 You're going to hate some of them.

02:22:58.700 But I think both sides have felt both of those things, which means it's working.

02:23:04.640 If you start juggling that stuff around, you're really going to screw the entire system up even more than it is now, I think, anyway.

02:23:13.580 Well, I personally believe that they should keep it at 9, but if they're going to expand it to 13, I think it's better that the Republicans do it rather than the Democrats.

02:23:28.480 Yeah, well, right now, I wouldn't think that after the midterms, we're going to have a majority enough to even get anything passed, never mind changing the numbers of the Supreme Court and then getting Supreme Court justices approved by a hostile House and Senate.

02:23:52.300 So it's a pipe dream there, as my grandpa used to say.

02:23:56.720 That's a pipe dream there, Bob.

02:23:58.660 But I appreciate the sentiment and the call.

02:24:02.200 Very good.

02:24:04.120 Maryland.

02:24:04.920 Maryland is a state that includes Baltimore.

02:24:10.320 And Baltimore is a state that includes murder, doesn't it?

02:24:15.280 Don't we all know that? 0.51

02:24:16.160 so what has the state of maryland decided to do about its gun crime and i love when it's called

02:24:24.880 gun crime because you mean thug crime it's thug crime they're using guns but they could use

02:24:32.460 anything machete a stick uh so maryland is really grabbing the bull by the horns as they say and

02:24:41.020 they want to ban glocks yes the the the gun the handgun glocks one of the most widely used and

02:24:50.960 owned uh handguns in the country why because glocks can easily easily be made into automatic

02:25:01.020 pistols something called a switch yo you put a switch on your glock and you can empty that clip

02:25:08.300 in a split second and if you have one of those giant clips uh magazines if you're not a thug

02:25:15.500 uh on your gun you could rattle off a hundred rounds in no time oh they're not going to hit

02:25:22.840 your intended target don't get me wrong they're going to fly all over the place because you can't

02:25:29.640 possibly aim a fully automatic clock firing a hundred rounds and you're going to hit grandma

02:25:35.660 and you're going to hit someone's mama 0.98

02:25:38.200 and you're going to hit someone's baby. 0.99

02:25:41.540 But that doesn't matter. 1.00

02:25:43.360 As long as you ban Glocks.

02:25:46.800 Oh, by the way, did I tell everyone that switches are already illegal?

02:25:52.160 That you're not allowed to modify your Glock with a switch

02:25:56.400 to make it fully automatic?

02:25:58.900 These lawmakers seem to think that criminals,

02:26:03.520 People that pay no attention to the law, right up to the crime of murder, will adhere to rules about what guns are and aren't legal.

02:26:15.140 So you're taking those guns, and the Glock is, like I said, a very widely used gun.

02:26:21.020 You're taking those away from legal law abiding citizens because criminals use them to modify them to make fully automatic weapons.

02:26:31.960 Sounds good to me, right?

02:26:34.340 Great bit of lawmaking there, legislation down there in Maryland.

02:26:40.120 Oh, boy.

02:26:41.120 All right, kids.

02:26:41.980 Thanks for tuning in.

02:26:43.220 We love you.

02:26:44.240 We'll be back here next Sunday.

02:26:47.040 Go to 77WABC Radio YouTube to get my clips, download them,

02:26:53.060 and we'll see you back here next week.
