00:00:00.000 Stone Zone, with legendary Republican strategist and political icon and pundit, Roger Stone.
00:00:06.780 Stone has served as a senior campaign aide to three Republican presidents.
00:00:10.820 He is a New York Times bestselling author and a longtime friend and advisor of President Donald Trump.
00:00:16.440 As an outspoken libertarian, Stone has appeared on thousands of broadcasts,
00:00:20.420 spoken at countless venues, and lectured before the prestigious Oxford Political Union and the Cambridge Union Society.
00:00:26.860 Due to his four-plus decades in the political and cultural arena, Stone has become a pop culture icon.
00:00:32.820 And now, here's your host, Roger Stone.
00:00:41.020 Welcome, I'm Roger Stone, and yes, you are back in the Stone Zone.
00:00:46.260 Well, today brings the shocking news that New York City Democrat Mayor Eric Adams
00:00:52.100 and a number of his inner circle have been indicted by the Federal Department of Justice.
00:00:58.260 Here to help us break this sequence of events down that brought us to this moment,
00:01:03.840 first, my co-host, the editor-in-chief of Slingshot.News, Troy Smith.
00:01:09.600 Roger, it's always an honor to join you in the Stone Zone.
00:01:12.700 Joining us now, a former New York City police officer, Salvatore Sal Greco.
00:01:20.180 He is a 14- or perhaps 15-year veteran of the New York City Police Department,
00:01:27.240 having served the people of New York in some of the most dangerous graveyard shift neighborhoods in the city.
00:01:35.260 He was terminated by the NYPD on an entirely baseless basis, really a political hit job.
00:01:49.100 He is fighting that in court quite successfully.
00:01:52.020 He and his attorneys have defeated two motions to dismiss by the city of New York.
00:01:57.300 And he knows more about this issue and the level of crime that brought us to this moment.
00:02:06.100 Sal Greco joins us now in the Stone Zone.
00:02:10.820 Roger and Troy, it's an honor to be here.
00:02:14.040 Well, Sal, I got to give you credit.
00:02:16.600 You have for well over two years, almost three years now, predicted this day would come
00:02:23.060 because you are a law enforcement officer and have great detective skills.
00:02:30.800 Most of the corruption issues surrounding the indictment of not just Adams, but Adams' entire inner circle
00:02:39.200 and some of his top political aides are due to dogged reporting on your part
00:02:45.520 and an indefatigable effort to get the truth to the people of New York and the country.
00:02:53.620 It's a long and winding story, but it begins in a restaurant in the Bronx called Con Sofrito.
00:03:02.560 Why don't we start the narrative there?
00:03:06.040 Yeah, so Roger, what you're mentioning here is kind of like the hub, we'll say,
00:03:10.100 for the Eric Adams administration and the upper echelon New York City Police Department,
00:03:14.200 along with numerous politicians, including the State Attorney General Letitia James
00:03:18.520 and the head of the assembly, the speaker, Carl Hastie.
00:03:23.020 It was a restaurant in the Bronx in the industrial section called Con Sofrito.
00:03:27.860 It is owned by the police commissioner's brother, Richard Caban,
00:03:31.660 and the creator and manager of the place is a guy by the name of Jimmy Rodriguez,
00:03:35.400 a self-admitted criminal and mob associate who used to own Jimmy's Bronx Cafe,
00:03:40.460 a place that was infamous, so infamous that Major League Baseball banned its players.
00:03:44.120 It's the site of where Fidel Castro came when he did come to New York City that one time.
00:03:49.800 And also, Jimmy is associated to numerous politicians, such as Bill Clinton.
00:03:54.580 Hillary Clinton, when she announced her run for Senate, did it in front of his laundromat.
00:03:58.760 It's now long forgotten, but that laundromat did have a sticker that said,
00:04:03.540 Jimmy's Bronx Cafe is going out of business, come here to get the bills that he owes.
00:04:07.540 So this is a little-known fact.
00:04:09.840 So it's a place where a lot of politicos and police officers and so on and so on go there,
00:04:16.080 especially now convicted criminals.
00:04:18.840 There's a lot of felons that go to this place.
00:04:20.780 We call it, nicknamed the Hall of Felons, which you can see on the walls and who walks in.
00:04:24.880 Fat Joe, Peter Guns, all these guys walk in, so famous rappers.
00:04:28.280 So this place, though, was under a mire of controversy from the beginning,
00:04:33.420 going all the way back to 2021.
00:04:35.800 The original owner, the owner of the place was an Albanian guy that owned it.
00:04:40.680 It was called Acre Cafe.
00:04:42.120 Once again, Jimmy Rodriguez was in the background.
00:04:44.520 And then as the place became from Acre Cafe to Consafrito,
00:04:50.300 they then shifted everything over to Richard Caban to be the owner.
00:04:54.000 As this transition is happening, the Albanian guy seems to slowly weed out. 1.00
00:05:00.060 And this Albanian guy, though, what happens is as he's giving away the place, 1.00
00:05:05.460 he's still on the SLA license.
00:05:07.960 That's the liquor license.
00:05:09.220 Yet Caban owned the place, which was already one red flag.
00:05:12.320 So then when Richard Caban takes over later on in August of 2021,
00:05:17.660 there's an incident that occurred, and we see that I legally obtained this document.
00:05:21.840 It was the NYPD sent a criminal referral to the State Liquor Authority,
00:05:26.880 and it comes from the Vice Human Trafficking Unit.
00:05:31.380 A human trafficking unit from the NYPD wrote this letter to the SLA
00:05:36.880 in regards to this incident that occurred.
00:05:39.060 And then the trail runs cold.
00:05:41.200 The SLA starts an investigation.
00:05:43.680 They all of a sudden shut it down in December.
00:05:46.200 We don't know why.
00:05:47.000 It never states why.
00:05:47.860 Just withdrew it.
00:05:49.060 And the party goes on.
00:05:50.680 Next thing you know, in 2022, the Department of Buildings,
00:05:55.620 which at the time was headed by Eric Ulrich.
00:05:58.040 Remember him?
00:05:58.520 He was indicted long ago.
00:06:00.820 So Eric Ulrich is the head of the buildings.
00:06:03.620 They went over there, and they summoned Consafrito and said,
00:06:07.420 you have an illegal party shed.
00:06:09.140 There's this 50-by-100-foot shed that's on the corner of the restaurant,
00:06:13.480 and they use it for a party room.
00:06:15.600 And it was deemed illegal.
00:06:17.980 It was a public safety hazard.
00:06:20.060 They were ordered to tear it down.
00:06:21.860 They didn't tear this down for approximately two years, by the way.
00:06:24.780 Then the fire department shows up.
00:06:26.680 Same fire department that you're hearing about that gave favors to Turkey
00:06:30.480 through Eric Adams.
00:06:31.600 That fire department went there, handed them 20 violations,
00:06:35.320 said there's no fire suppression system, makes it a fire trap.
00:06:38.860 Party goes on.
00:06:40.240 We then have the health board.
00:06:42.200 The health department shows up.
00:06:44.600 They gave them an A rating despite the fact that they cited them multiple times.
00:06:49.740 They said there were mice in the food.
00:06:51.540 There's mice droppings.
00:06:52.620 I mean, it's just disgusting what you're reading.
00:06:54.480 Fruit flies.
00:06:55.540 Yet the party goes on.
00:06:57.140 And we see that we have fraternal organizations from the police department.
00:07:01.020 We have Eric Adams.
00:07:02.000 We have Carl Hastie, Letitia James, numerous state senate people,
00:07:08.100 city councilmen, Ralph Salamanca.
00:07:10.420 They're all there all the time having numerous fundraiser party, you name it.
00:07:14.360 So then we go to January 6th.
00:07:17.100 They have a party there that's sponsored by Internal Affairs
00:07:20.260 who ultimately should have been investigating the place for all these NYPD fraternal parties
00:07:25.480 they had that should have never got approved because just by what I'm telling you,
00:07:29.640 knowing this history, they should never be in there.
00:07:32.300 Oh, and by the way, the former owner that I mentioned, this Albanian guy,
00:07:35.680 in early 2023 was actually picked up by the feds for human trafficking.
00:07:42.000 He was trafficking people from Canada into America and was picked up,
00:07:46.380 and he's on a three-year probation, I think, right now.
00:07:49.200 So there is something there to look at, the former owner.
00:07:52.640 So then as this goes on, January 6th, they have this party,
00:07:56.300 and the landlord had a court order against them because it was a violation of their lease.
00:08:01.240 They're supposed to tear down the shed. 1.00
00:08:02.600 They didn't.
00:08:03.420 They waited five extra months.
00:08:05.920 They owed $14,000 in back rent.
00:08:08.460 They didn't pay a water bill.
00:08:09.720 I mean, it was just a mess.
00:08:11.020 They clearly just did whatever they felt like doing.
00:08:13.720 They finally tear the shed down to have another party.
00:08:16.780 This time it was in the parking lot.
00:08:18.500 They violated the court order again, and there's the New York City sheriff,
00:08:22.480 Anthony Miranda, smiling with Jimmy Rodriguez drinking while the police department's out front,
00:08:27.740 and the allegations and rumors were that they were also drinking in uniform.
00:08:31.220 It was one big party for them.
00:08:32.840 They finally got a court order, a judge to shut them down, okay?
00:08:37.140 The judge put the order.
00:08:38.500 That was it.
00:08:39.060 Concer Frito finally closed.
00:08:40.600 But during this whole time, you're now hearing about who?
00:08:44.400 Eddie Caban's brother's running an extortion ring, his twin brother James.
00:08:48.600 James was seen there numerous times.
00:08:50.720 Eddie, it was like he lived in a place, and Richie did own the place.
00:08:54.080 But the common trend here is the names that you're hearing over and over again were seen in this place.
00:08:59.980 So as you know, and I was a cop, Roger and Troy, when you hear about crime families,
00:09:05.620 they always have to have a hub where they all locate.
00:09:08.240 This seems to be the center of the epicenter of where they were hanging out all the time
00:09:13.900 and the base of their operations.
00:09:15.760 And then from there, the tree grows.
00:09:17.720 It goes all over the place, and it becomes a big operation.
00:09:20.960 And you're about to hear other people that are wrong, Roger.
00:09:26.280 All right.
00:09:26.940 So just to clarify things for our viewers, when he refers to Ed Caban,
00:09:31.180 Ed Caban was the New York City police commissioner.
00:09:33.880 His brother was running an extortion racket, essentially offering protection to nightclubs
00:09:40.380 and restaurants against code enforcement and other problems.
00:09:45.160 He has now been forced to step down.
00:09:48.920 The most serious allegations revealed today in an indictment that was just released a few moments ago,
00:09:55.760 so we haven't really had time to study it.
00:09:57.720 But there's a lot of threads to this.
00:10:00.540 But I think the most serious one is the allegation that Mayor Eric Adams was getting laundered campaign contributions
00:10:10.980 from foreign sources, specifically Turkish forces, Turkish entities.
00:10:18.440 And, of course, the city of New York has a 10-to-1 matching formula.
00:10:22.620 In other words, for every dollar you raise, the New York City taxpayers end up subsidizing you with an additional $10.
00:10:34.460 And that's really the beginning.
00:10:37.560 There are raids on a number of the mayor's associates who are involved in fundraising.
00:10:44.620 The mayor himself is ambushed by the FBI, which actually takes his phones.
00:10:51.640 What do we know about that, Sal, about that entire money laundering operation?
00:10:55.900 It seems that he took about $10 million in donations, and he was doing lavish luxury suites, trips.
00:11:03.980 And actually, Roger, that goes back to 2015.
00:11:06.180 And I just want to state, because I see there's a lot of these so-called MAGA Republicans or MAGA politicians out there
00:11:13.840 that are saying this is a political hit job.
00:11:16.100 Let's be clear.
00:11:17.200 What Eric Adams did and what he's being accused of is nothing short of what just happened to Bob Menendez
00:11:23.080 and recently with Brooklyn Democrats.
00:11:24.980 It's actually something that's common amongst local politicians.
00:11:29.080 What Donald Trump, President Trump, was charged with, they used that statute from the 1800s, which is ridiculous, to charge him.
00:11:38.060 That is a politically motivated, which they basically picked him out of a hat and said,
00:11:44.120 we're going to use this to charge him.
00:11:46.060 They are selectively enforcing that.
00:11:48.340 They haven't done that since the 1800s.
00:11:50.820 There's a difference between the two.
00:11:52.300 So when we hear, Roger, Vicky Palladino, councilwoman, other people that are in New York City, Joe Borelli,
00:12:01.580 then we're going to go even further.
00:12:03.900 We'll have people like a Steve Bannon out there.
00:12:07.200 Where were they when I was being persecuted?
00:12:10.680 My father dies in front of me.
00:12:12.420 I have internal affairs outside.
00:12:13.720 I was treated like a criminal because what?
00:12:15.920 I'm a Trump supporter.
00:12:17.280 And I'm your friend, Roger.
00:12:19.020 Where were the voices then?
00:12:20.260 But now Eric Adams is a politically targeted person.
00:12:24.320 What about Sal Greco?
00:12:25.360 Where were the voices then? 0.68
00:12:26.780 I don't really want to make it about myself, but I find it ridiculous.
00:12:30.360 You can't even compare the two.
00:12:32.060 What Eric Adams did is egregious.
00:12:35.040 And guess what?
00:12:35.740 It doesn't end with Eric Adams.
00:12:37.640 It's going to be more people, Roger.
00:12:39.540 You're going to hear about this.
00:12:40.580 There's allegedly 300 more indictments coming with numerous people involved.
00:12:44.460 And it's, you know, he's a highly conflicted individual who surrounds himself with corruptible people.
00:12:50.900 We just saw his own new police commissioner, another corruptible guy, who was raided by the feds one week after he was named as a NYPD police commissioner.
00:13:01.840 And, Roger, you saw the document that I found, that he wrote a letter of leniency to that treasonous FBI agent, Charles McGonigal, who was taking bribes from the Russians.
00:13:13.640 And meanwhile, he was part of Russian collusion.
00:13:16.340 And if it's true what Tom Donilon did, where they were looking for documents, Roger, where have we had that before?
00:13:22.640 Taking classified documents.
00:13:24.200 I believe the only person that could even touch that would have been the president, which they tried to bamboozle Donald Trump with.
00:13:31.180 But guess what?
00:13:32.100 If Tom Donilon's doing it, that's treasonous. 0.62
00:13:34.620 And we already know he's good friends with a treasonous traitor of the country already.
00:13:38.480 So what is Eric Adams doing but surrounding himself with corruptible people?
00:13:43.420 It is no surprise to hear this.
00:13:45.040 There's been rumors for years.
00:13:46.520 And, Roger, you go back to your days in New York City.
00:13:48.480 Remember when he was in the state senate with the race casino scandal?
00:13:51.660 So, Maserat, his buddy, got charged.
00:13:55.000 Malcolm Smith got charged.
00:13:56.840 But Eric Adams, who was guilty, they left off the hook.
00:14:00.300 And I have his old testimony, and you could read it, and it's pretty damning.
00:14:03.860 And the only good thing Andrew Cuomo did for the state of New York was, in that deal, the profits from the casino, 70% go to the states.
00:14:11.560 Probably the one good thing this guy actually did in his entire tenure.
00:14:14.300 So, Eric Adams' behavior has never been corrected.
00:14:18.020 And now you're seeing everything come to light because he just continued.
00:14:21.660 Really sad day for New York City.
00:14:24.100 But really, if you really think about it, it's not unexpected.
00:14:27.420 Well, the defense that he's offering today, and it's important that many in MAGA world understand this.
00:14:33.560 No, he was not targeted because he is a critic of the Biden migrant policies.
00:14:39.040 First of all, he campaigned for mayor of New York City on a platform of making New York City a sanctuary city.
00:14:46.760 Secondarily, he has purposely cited migrant shelters in middle-class Republican neighborhoods in Staten Island and Queens, and they have become magnets for crime. 0.57
00:14:59.160 So, this defense that, oh, he's just being targeted because he's a critic of the Biden administration migrant policies is 100% false.
00:15:12.920 So, Sal, the one thing I have to urge you to do here is not everybody in our audience knows who all these characters are.
00:15:19.520 So, when you say Tom Donilon, you have to tell them who Tom Donilon is.
00:15:23.320 When you say Ed Caban, Ed Caban was the police commissioner.
00:15:28.540 His brother was, as I say, shaking down establishments for protection.
00:15:33.600 He was forced to resign.
00:15:35.440 Now, this actually includes the school chancellor was forced to resign.
00:15:40.880 His brother, another high-level aide to Mayor Adams, also forced to resign.
00:15:48.340 It appears there may be as many as 300 indictments of the people in Eric Adams' circle.
00:15:56.600 So, when you see this defense today, that this is politically motivated, no, I think it's because the level of crime became so egregious, so obvious.
00:16:07.800 It's not just Eric Adams, it is his entire internal circle.
00:16:13.540 And just to be clear, Sal Greco was terminated by the NYPD because it is alleged that he violated a regulation of the department that said that he could not associate with an individual who in the past may have or in the future may be involved in criminal activity.
00:16:32.640 Yet, the police commissioner is consorting with Jimmy Rodriguez, a convicted felon.
00:16:40.080 In fact, we know that when Eric Adams himself was a New York City police captain, he consorted with Reverend Al Sharpton, a convicted felon.
00:16:52.020 The Reverend Louis Farrakhan, a convicted felon.
00:16:55.880 Mike Tyson, a convicted felon.
00:16:58.640 He was brought up on the same charges as Sal Greco in a departmental trial, but he didn't get his entire career destroyed.
00:17:08.940 He wasn't terminated.
00:17:10.440 He wasn't refused a letter of good conduct.
00:17:13.680 He wasn't stripped of his pension.
00:17:16.440 No, they docked his vacation time five days.
00:17:20.780 Now, compare that to the case of Salvatore Greco.
00:17:25.020 Sal is suing in the federal courts.
00:17:27.100 The city of New York has moved twice to dismiss that suit.
00:17:31.040 The judge has denied that motion.
00:17:33.700 Yet, the city is dragging its feet when it comes to discovery.
00:17:39.120 I'm sorry, but it is not believable that there were no communications between the police department and Mayor Eric Adams regarding this high-profile case.
00:17:48.360 Sal Greco was terminated simply because he is a friend of mine.
00:17:53.240 Yes, he was in Washington on January 5th and 6th, but he was not at the Capitol, and there is no evidence whatsoever that either he or I had advanced knowledge of, was involved in, or condoned any illegal activity on January 6th.
00:18:10.600 That is a fantasy of the left, although they certainly investigated in violation in many cases of their own rules, and yet they found nothing.
00:18:21.580 I say they, I refer to the city of New York.
00:18:24.180 So, this is a shocking development.
00:18:28.000 You can already see Adams trying to use a political defense.
00:18:32.320 My sources tell me that he is arguing strenuously for a pardon on the part of outgoing President Joe Biden.
00:18:41.380 But Biden is not particularly close to Eric Adams.
00:18:45.540 Perhaps he thinks he can get a pardon from a President Kamala Harris, but I don't think there's going to be a President Kamala Harris.
00:18:55.300 And he is looking at hard time here.
00:18:59.800 The taking foreign campaign contributions and then submitting them for a city match is both a federal and a state crime and a serious felony.
00:19:10.480 And that's just the tip of the iceberg here.
00:19:14.700 You have so many levels of crime, it's really quite extraordinary.
00:19:20.240 You're right.
00:19:20.660 This is a crime family, and it all begins with an examination of that restaurant in the Bronx, Conso Frito, which was essentially the headquarters for the Eric Adams crime family.
00:19:34.800 Troy, a question for Sal Greco.
00:19:38.220 Absolutely, Sal.
00:19:39.140 Well, I want to ask you, because I know it's been a long fight for you just since you were persecuted by Eric Adams in the police department and these individuals that have been taken over in New York City.
00:19:51.760 And I just want to ask you, what kind of emotions ran through your mind when you saw the news that he had actually been indicted?
00:19:57.980 Because I know you've predicted it on this show.
00:20:00.100 You've predicted it on your Twitter feed for a long time now.
00:20:03.020 And it just had to feel like justice.
00:20:05.840 And secondly, how do you think this is going to end up?
00:20:09.040 Do you think we'll actually see a day where Eric Adams is behind bars?
00:20:13.140 Or do you think he's going to pull some strings like Rodgers kind of talking about here and able to get out of this?
00:20:18.980 Well, I, you know, the initial emotions were, yeah, you know, it's almost a surreal moment.
00:20:26.160 You know, I'm thinking back of what actually happened to me.
00:20:29.100 You know, we had the problems, my father passing away.
00:20:33.020 We had what happened to me personally being persecuted and everything that even Roger went through.
00:20:38.040 I think of political persecution.
00:20:40.320 I think of no one else short of Roger.
00:20:42.860 I was there for Roger's trial.
00:20:44.160 I went through everything with his family.
00:20:45.680 It's like Roger is my family.
00:20:47.260 And, you know, to try to compare this guy to that is laughable.
00:20:50.580 It really is.
00:20:51.520 When really, Eric has criminal tendencies.
00:20:54.380 And, you know, I did predict it, but it's a somber day for New York City to have your mayor, as he's sitting right now, an indicted mayor.
00:21:04.460 The first time ever.
00:21:05.600 Not even Jimmy Walker got this treatment.
00:21:07.980 Or William O'Dwyer, who were both corrupt, but not as corrupt as Eric Adams, apparently.
00:21:12.660 So, it's a somber day, and you see everybody saying, well, Jermani Williams, he's going to be the mayor.
00:21:19.740 He's a placeholder.
00:21:20.900 He doesn't have time to set up an administration because it'll be a special election.
00:21:25.240 And there's no doubt that's going to happen because whether Kathy Hochul removes him or this independent, this committee that they have that the city charter has in his rule book, he's going to have to be removed.
00:21:35.280 There are people flocking off the ship right now, Troy.
00:21:37.760 You're going to have resignations.
00:21:39.420 Who's going to even want to listen to this guy?
00:21:41.300 He calls himself the mayor.
00:21:42.840 I mean, we know what's going on here, and nobody wants to be a part of it.
00:21:46.620 So, it's a somber day for New York City, but for all those people that say, Jermani Williams, well, you guys in New York City elected him.
00:21:54.500 Some of the New York City residents don't even go and vote.
00:21:57.500 And when you look at the, what was it, 8 million people in a city, how many of them really vote?
00:22:02.120 And you look at those numbers and go, well, those are putrid numbers in the mayoral election.
00:22:06.220 And that's part of the problem.
00:22:08.500 You have to have a stake in the game to have a say.
00:22:11.120 So, if you're now worried about Jermani Williams, well, you elected him as public advocate.
00:22:16.680 You should have thought about that.
00:22:17.880 What if, what if scenarios?
00:22:19.780 That's how people do that in a national level?
00:22:21.960 Or do they?
00:22:22.760 See, elections have consequences, Troy, and New York City is learning the hard way that now, starting today, in the future, you really have to do research on your candidates that you're going to put in and you're looking to elect to office.
00:22:37.400 Because we can't do this identity politics.
00:22:40.720 Oh, I'm the swagger man. 1.00
00:22:41.980 All this garbage. 1.00
00:22:43.240 Vote for me. 1.00
00:22:43.860 We're the same skin color.
00:22:45.080 We're the same gender.
00:22:46.040 I'm the first of this or that.
00:22:47.340 Because now look at the scenario you're stuck in.
00:22:49.900 And now everyone's pointing fingers.
00:22:51.240 Oh, we have Jermani Williams.
00:22:52.700 But you voted for Jermani Williams.
00:22:54.860 So, now you have to eat what you sow.
00:22:57.440 You know, you have to eat your own crow.
00:22:59.140 You should have voted.
00:23:00.000 If you didn't vote, well, now you've got to blame yourselves.
00:23:03.820 Let's address what happens going forward.
00:23:06.620 I agree with Sal's analysis.
00:23:08.520 The mayor may be vowing to stay on, but he won't be able to do so.
00:23:13.240 The city now moves to a special election, which will be completely nonpartisan.
00:23:17.760 So, there'll be no primaries.
00:23:19.200 Everybody will run in one election, and it will involve rank choice voting, which is a system in which you vote for more than one candidate.
00:23:31.100 I disagree with those who say that the public advocate, again, Sal, we have to tell people who these folks are.
00:23:38.120 Public advocate Jermaine Williams is the front runner.
00:23:40.660 I think this is going to be a huge race with multiple candidates.
00:23:44.640 By the way, there is no runoff.
00:23:46.100 So, any candidate could win this with, you know, 20, 25, 23 percent of the vote, depending on how large the field gets.
00:23:55.620 AOC yesterday afternoon called for Eric Adams, her fellow Democrat, to step down because she said the corruption rumors around his administration had got to be so great.
00:24:08.120 So, in other words, AOC was tipped off, and she knew this was coming.
00:24:14.500 The irony here, of course, is that within the milieu of New York Democrats, Eric Adams, who's an extreme liberal, is not progressive enough for people like AOC,
00:24:26.120 despite the fact that he has located migrant shelters in stable, largely working class neighborhoods throughout the city of New York, causing a massive upsurge in crime. 0.92
00:24:40.080 Let's go to that now.
00:24:41.740 The mayor, the police chief, and the commissioner, and this guy, Kaz Daudry, you can tell us who he is, they continued until recently to allege that crime in New York City is down.
00:24:57.860 It looks to me like it's because they have manipulated, just like the FBI did, they have manipulated the statistics.
00:25:04.820 Sal, tell us about that.
00:25:05.840 So, it's a common practice here.
00:25:08.520 So, what goes on is it's called CompStat.
00:25:11.100 They have a meeting at the end of each week.
00:25:13.980 They all get together, and they release these numbers.
00:25:17.240 And the numbers are the seven major felonies, misdemeanor crimes, violations, all the seven majors, which is murder, rape, robbery, assault, grand larceny auto, and also, I think, regular larceny.
00:25:32.100 So, here's the thing with that, though.
00:25:33.920 When you release the seven majors, these are manipulated, and I could tell you how this works.
00:25:38.440 So, Roger, let's say you're walking down the street.
00:25:40.740 You have your, let's say, your laptop in your hand.
00:25:44.580 Somebody walks over in New York City, punches you in the face, rips the laptop away, and they're gone.
00:25:49.880 Technically, Roger, that is a robbery.
00:25:52.080 But what they'll do is they could downgrade this crime and say, well, it's actually not a robbery.
00:25:59.080 We could say it's a petty larceny or a larceny and then make it an assault or vice versa, and you stay away from the felony.
00:26:08.740 Meanwhile, when they report this to the FBI, they're going to say it's assault three, which is a misdemeanor, or even a petty larceny, saying that the laptop's not worth over $1,000.
00:26:18.220 And meanwhile, when the FBI then reports it, because they have to announce their official report, I believe, in February or March of each year, then the NYPD goes back and manipulates that and goes, oh, we're going to change that back to what it is, a felony.
00:26:32.340 So, you actually saw this this year.
00:26:34.460 So, they inflate numbers and then deflate them at the same time.
00:26:39.380 Whatever it takes to manipulate the whole crime is down, jobs are up, the city's not surviving, it's thriving, Eric Adams lingo.
00:26:46.340 So, that's what's going on.
00:26:48.520 And then we also have the FBI was underreporting crimes and overreporting crimes and sometimes not underreporting crimes.
00:26:57.500 So, you have a little bit of between the police department and the FBI, the right hand's not telling the left hand what to do.
00:27:04.620 So, they're manipulating the crime stats.
00:27:06.680 Every week, a good friend of mine, Sam Antar, he puts this out on his XFeed.
00:27:10.840 He's always reviewing the numbers and he finds all the misdeeds.
00:27:15.300 Under Eric Adams, Roger, violent crime is up 30% in his tenure.
00:27:22.760 30%.
00:27:23.280 He's telling you crime is down.
00:27:25.180 How is that possible?
00:27:26.660 Violent crimes are up 30%.
00:27:28.460 And the misdemeanor crimes, Roger, those are the assault threes and the petty lawsuits I'm talking about.
00:27:35.060 Those are through the roof.
00:27:36.200 If that tells you people what they're telling you, they don't feel safe, and he says it's a perception and not a reality, the perception is the reality.
00:27:44.960 They are seeing it.
00:27:46.100 They don't feel safe.
00:27:47.200 They see it in the street.
00:27:48.540 And Eric is going to tell you the opposite because he's doing whatever it takes to politically survive at this point, Roger.
00:27:53.800 There's another going on here, just yet another of this sequence of crimes.
00:28:00.860 I'm looking at the clips here, which are really overwhelming.
00:28:04.560 Frank Caron, a key advisor to Eric Adams, recently subpoenaed by an investigation regarding his dealings with a Brooklyn church.
00:28:16.440 Yet another tentacle of this same web of corruption.
00:28:21.280 Tell us about that, Sal.
00:28:22.220 So Frank Caron, who is up to his eyeballs with Eric Adams and a lot of his dealings, in fact, last night, you did see him leaving Gracie Manchin, and he had his shirt unbuttoned.
00:28:34.560 And I said, oh, I guess they were patting him down for the wire because there's all sorts of rumors with him.
00:28:39.880 And I could tell you through the grapevine, through a back channel, what I heard, and it's just a rumor, but I'll put it out there.
00:28:45.140 I heard that I heard that he's selling his house because his indictment is imminent.
00:28:50.320 They've been looking into him for quite a while.
00:28:52.940 These trips, you heard about the foreign trips.
00:28:55.240 Remember, Frank Caron went to Azerbaijan.
00:28:58.060 I think that's one of the countries, or Uzbekistan.
00:29:00.580 And he was meeting with these foreign nationals.
00:29:03.440 And remember, he was the chief of staff to Eric Adams.
00:29:06.480 He's also a very big frequenter of zero bond.
00:29:09.220 They were throwing fundraisers over there.
00:29:11.080 There's all kinds of questions.
00:29:12.800 Now you have the church, so the Monsignor's involved, and he's another guy who's a shady guy in the background.
00:29:18.600 Frank Caron, he's a well-known lobbyist in the city.
00:29:21.780 Everybody knows what you're dealing with him.
00:29:23.940 This comes as no surprise because, once again, he's another corruptible individual that Eric Adams surrounds himself with.
00:29:30.500 So this is no surprise.
00:29:31.640 And like I said, I would expect, from what I understand and what I believe, he will be joining Eric Adams in a future indictment.
00:29:41.580 Okay, we're going to take a quick commercial break here.
00:29:45.200 And then when we come back, we'll have a bit more with Sal Greco.
00:29:49.400 And then Troy Smith and I are going to get into some of the politics of the day.
00:29:53.860 This is Roger Stone.
00:29:55.660 Remember when AT&T's cell phone outage left millions, including me, stranded without a means to communicate with loved ones, business associates, or even for emergency services?
00:30:07.000 You see, cellular networks are particularly vulnerable, big targets for hackers and terrorists, as well as vulnerable to hurricanes and other natural disasters.
00:30:17.240 So if your cell phone goes down, how will you communicate?
00:30:21.280 That's why I got the Iridium 9555 satellite phone and service.
00:30:27.880 I'm using the proprietary Iridium satellite service.
00:30:32.000 Cell networks only cover about 7% of the Earth, while the Iridium system covers 100% of the Earth.
00:30:39.060 You can call or text from any place you can see the sky.
00:30:42.860 These are trusted by U.S. military and government officials everywhere.
00:30:46.440 All calls are encrypted, safe and secure.
00:30:50.100 No eavesdropping, no hacking.
00:30:52.260 It's the reason the U.S. military uses Iridium phones and the U.S. Senate uses satellite phones for their secure phone calls.
00:31:00.320 You, too, can ensure your privacy by using our Iridium proprietary satellite network.
00:31:06.600 Just go to sat123.com slash roger.
00:31:11.300 No tracking and no one can listen to your calls.
00:31:13.820 No one will ever read your text but the person you're sending them to.
00:31:17.800 And more importantly, big tech cannot steal and then sell your data.
00:31:22.640 You can get the Iridium 9555 phone at no cost if you sign up for a plan with a 24-month agreement.
00:31:30.940 A monthly plan is only $95.95 and you get the phone for free.
00:31:37.260 You can get a plan with us for as little as $85.95.
00:31:41.260 And then there are discounted family share plans with up to three free phones.
00:31:46.540 Those are also available.
00:31:48.260 The Iridium 9555 satellite phone will work from anywhere on Earth with no exceptions.
00:31:54.860 Oh, and how do you keep your satellite phone charged in the event of an electrical grid shutdown?
00:32:00.280 You're going to want our solar-powered satellite phone recharger.
00:32:04.020 You can get it all by going to sat123.com slash roger.
00:32:10.200 You need to have secure communications.
00:32:12.940 Get your Iridium 9555 phone now.
00:32:16.440 Okay, folks, that is sat123.com slash roger.
00:32:26.040 Check out the Iridium 9555 phone, but just as importantly, and more importantly, actually, the proprietary Iridium satellite phone system.
00:32:37.260 That way, in the event of an entire electrical power grid shutdown, as Kash Patel spoke about on this show only about a week ago, you'll always have communications capability because you won't be relying on cell phone towers or the cell phone system,
00:32:55.360 which is particularly vulnerable to terrorists, or maybe just inclement weather, like the hurricane that we're having in Florida, even as we speak.
00:33:05.640 Folks, I hope you will check it out.
00:33:07.340 Now, Sal, as you know, in order for a woman named E. Jean Carroll to file a civil case against Donald Trump, claiming that many years ago Trump sexually assaulted her, a trial in which he was held liable for that sexual assault.
00:33:28.620 No, he was not convicted of rape, despite the fact that many of the elements of E. Jean Carroll's story seem highly questionable.
00:33:39.660 They had to actually change the New York state law to open a window to essentially suspend the statute of limitations so that they could indict Trump.
00:33:50.600 This was the brainchild of George Conway, the former husband of Kelly Ann Conway, and one of the principals in the Lincoln Project, a Trump hater.
00:34:03.540 To their surprise, when they used their contacts in the Democrat-controlled legislature and with the signature by the Democrat governor in this setup to try to charge Donald Trump,
00:34:19.180 well, two other individuals got charged.
00:34:21.720 A woman came forward to accuse Eric Adams of sexual assault, and a woman came forward to charge Andrew Cuomo with sexual assault.
00:34:33.540 We'll put the Cuomo issue aside for another day, but today you have learned, Sal, that the taxpayers of New York are paying for Eric Adams' legal defense in this sexual assault matter.
00:34:49.060 Is that legal?
00:34:50.880 Actually, Roger, that is official misconduct, and I'll tell you why.
00:34:55.500 In New York City, there's a law.
00:34:57.280 It's under General Municipal Law 50K2.
00:34:59.800 Under this law, what happens is corporation counsel, who any employee in New York City, especially in the police department, which is where Eric Adams used to be employed, which is when this supposedly allegedly happened, would have to determine what happened and give a letter to the public.
00:35:16.960 It's public, this letter, because the public would be paying for your defense.
00:35:20.100 And just not giving your legal defense away, but explain why they're defending you.
00:35:25.160 Now, remember, they must defend an action that you took while doing your duties, meaning it's got to fall in the scope of your duties or it had something to do in your job.
00:35:36.140 And, Roger, sexual misconduct, especially assault or rape, does not fall under the scope of anyone's duties in New York City, let alone the New York City Police Department.
00:35:45.040 So, they're representing him illegally.
00:35:48.560 We don't understand why.
00:35:49.840 There was no reason given.
00:35:51.380 We, as the taxpayers, have the right to see the letter.
00:35:54.740 They gave me a letter that said there was no letter.
00:35:57.280 That was my fall request.
00:35:58.440 There's nothing.
00:35:59.260 So, what happened is the head of the corporation counsel, Sylvia Hins Raddix, she ended up stepping down because Eric had a hissy fit behind the scenes when she said, we can't represent you, Eric.
00:36:10.820 And then seven, six city lawyers are on this case, plus another lawyer named Alex Spiro.
00:36:18.340 Remember him?
00:36:18.960 He's a big-shot attorney.
00:36:20.540 He's on this case, and he's also representing Eric in a criminal case.
00:36:24.720 But the taxpayers are on the hook for this particular case, which is a sexual assault that took place over 30 years ago when Eric Adams was a sergeant in the Transit Guardians Fraternity, which she was a part of,
00:36:36.060 and the Transit Division of the time, New York City Transit Police, which then merged in the NYPD.
00:36:41.900 But the problem here is it's official misconduct by whoever decided to represent Eric because it is illegal.
00:36:49.160 It does not fall under the scope of the duties.
00:36:51.360 And, Roger, we see this with numerous people in his administration, actually.
00:36:55.880 We've seen this with Ed Caban, this civilian named Brian Adams, who's in the police department, the chief of department of the NYPD, Jeffrey Madry, the chief of patrol, John Schell, and the NYPD, also the deputy commissioner of operations, Kaz Daudry.
00:37:10.800 They're all named in a lawsuit with a woman named Damon Arachlan, who just so happened to now end up in front of my judge in Brooklyn last week in a case of another sexual harassment case, which includes Eric Adams yet again.
00:37:23.860 So the city is illegally representing these people.
00:37:28.040 They are fleecing the taxpayers.
00:37:30.200 They're running up the tab.
00:37:31.820 And when is anyone going to step in with that?
00:37:34.340 Is there going to be a hearing on city council?
00:37:37.020 Does it take, I don't know, maybe Letitia James could wake up and actually realize she's a state attorney general again? 1.00
00:37:44.420 Someone needs to step in with that because, Roger, they are fleecing the taxpayers. 0.93
00:37:48.900 This man is highly corrupt.
00:37:51.040 Troy, you have another question for Sal Greco. 0.95
00:37:56.680 Absolutely, Roger.
00:37:58.000 As we're getting to the end of this segment here, we have a video that I wanted to play and ask Sal about directly.
00:38:05.060 And that relates to the relationship between now-indicted rapper P. Diddy and Eric Adams and asking him if he has anything to do.
00:38:13.600 You know, the P. Diddy indictment comes just a week or two before this Eric Adams indictment, which I find very interesting.
00:38:19.240 We've actually pulled a video of Eric Adams giving the key to the city to P. Diddy.
00:38:26.280 And if you watch The Stone Zone, you would have seen this already.
00:38:29.080 And him celebrating him and now knowing what we know, pretty troubling stuff.
00:38:33.620 So let's roll that and then get Sal's opinion on if this P. Diddy indictment had anything to do with the unraveling of Eric Adams.
00:38:41.860 Let's roll that.
00:38:42.340 Thank you.
00:38:44.340 Thank you.
00:38:45.340 Thank you.
00:38:46.340 Thank you.
00:38:47.340 I want to thank you all for this honor and just recognizing me, being from New York, giving me the key to the city.
00:39:14.280 Diddy finally has the key to the city.
00:39:20.620 Today's event coincides with the release of his new album, The Love Album, Off the Grid.
00:39:27.740 Quite incredible.
00:39:29.200 A lot of speculation today that Eric Adams is now a man in tough shape.
00:39:36.520 Because, you see, normally the underlings roll on the big fish.
00:39:41.960 Right now, who knows, the Caban brothers, Caron, all of these other city officials seeking to make a deal for themselves, they're probably rolling on Eric.
00:39:54.540 But Eric doesn't have anybody to roll on because he is, as we Italians say, the head of the snake.
00:40:02.620 The only thing here that occurs to me is there's two people he may have information on that would be problematic.
00:40:10.300 One of them potentially is P. Diddy.
00:40:12.380 The other one is Attorney General Leticia James. 0.75
00:40:17.220 Now, we know that she was among those who frequented Consofrito.
00:40:21.820 And we also know, by analyzing the funding of her campaign, that she's among those who took thousands and thousands and thousands of dollars in repeat small contributions from donors who either don't really exist or when they're contacted, say they have no memory or record of having given any money to Leticia James.
00:40:46.260 Leticia James has a lot of power as New York Attorney General, but she's someone that Eric Adams could try to feed to federal prosecutors to get them to go easier on him. 1.00
00:41:00.560 Thoughts on this, Sal?
00:41:03.220 She is the true, I would believe, the true head of this entire operation.
00:41:08.760 Just by when you look at it from the outside in, she's the head law enforcement agent in the entire state.
00:41:15.580 And she was associating with criminals. 0.64
00:41:18.820 And meanwhile, Roger, she has the power to make you a convicted criminal.
00:41:22.660 That is completely a contradiction.
00:41:26.000 And she should be called in and sanctioned for this.
00:41:29.020 And, you know, I saw the video that I want to make one point there was P. Diddy.
00:41:32.660 Standing to Eric's left and to the right of the screen was Ingrid Lewis Martin. 0.81
00:41:37.080 She's his chief advisor.
00:41:39.160 She's been absent for over 10 days now.
00:41:42.440 She was not at two consecutive press conferences.
00:41:45.300 They say she's on vacation.
00:41:46.920 I think she's in a witness protection program because she knows where all Eric Adams' bones are buried.
00:41:53.000 She was with him all the way back from 2015.
00:41:56.920 She also frequented Consofrito.
00:41:59.440 And she looked to be all happy when she saw P. Diddy.
00:42:03.080 And I'll tell you what, these freak-off parties where you have a lot of celebrities now scrubbing the Internet, you're hearing the rumors of the cops involved.
00:42:11.880 You're hearing rumors of the hip-hop police, which was a squad in the NYPD back in the day.
00:42:16.440 And I'd like to also reiterate, P. Diddy was given a key to the city.
00:42:20.500 And then very recently, who else?
00:42:22.460 Fat Joe.
00:42:23.380 Fat Joe, very, very calm.
00:42:25.740 I mean, he must have lived at a Consofrito. 1.00
00:42:28.360 He was there so much.
00:42:29.220 And he also is very close friends with P. Diddy.
00:42:32.180 So this is an intricate web.
00:42:34.500 The more you dig, it's going down a rabbit hole.
00:42:36.780 You have all these different associations.
00:42:38.620 And we're going to wait and see here, Roger, because right now this is the indictment you're reading.
00:42:43.680 But with 300 people on deck, who knows if there are any superseding indictments coming in.
00:42:49.080 Is P. Diddy talking from jail?
00:42:50.780 That is yet to be determined.
00:42:54.020 Final point here.
00:42:55.740 This is one you will certainly remember.
00:42:57.860 Again, this is about a double standard.
00:43:00.380 So, again, they terminated Sal Greco as a New York City police officer.
00:43:06.140 They destroyed his life.
00:43:09.360 But they don't hold themselves to the same standards.
00:43:12.740 Cardi B, a rapper with a criminal record, was actually invited to speak at the New York City Police Academy.
00:43:20.780 And therefore, she came into contact with all of the top brass of the New York City Police Department.
00:43:26.780 Why weren't they terminated for their association with her?
00:43:29.940 It violates the same regulation that they say you violated, the regulation that Eric Adams violated when he was a police captain, for which he got a slap on the wrist.
00:43:40.980 Just another egregious example of the two-tiered justice system. 0.92
00:43:47.200 No place more prevalent than in New York City.
00:43:51.800 All right.
00:43:52.100 We're going to have to move on.
00:43:53.480 I want to thank our guest, Sal Greco.
00:43:56.600 Sal, you have a new show, the Sal Greco Show.
00:44:00.120 Tell us where folks can see that.
00:44:02.500 Sure, Roger.

00:44:38.300 But I show the articles and read, and there's a lot of good information there from these journalists, these beat writers in New York City who are, you know, up and coming.
00:44:46.040 And, you know, check out the show.
00:44:47.760 I discuss sports, politics, NYPD, and many other things.
00:44:52.380 So, the Sal Greco Show, and, of course, on Twitter, our ex at the Sal Greco.
00:44:58.360 All right.
00:44:59.060 Many thanks to our friend Sal Greco.
00:45:00.900 Sal, I know you're going to be very, very busy today.
00:45:03.240 You've got a lot of requests for shows.
00:45:05.520 This is a day of vindication for you.
00:45:07.640 You've said for over three years that this day would come.
00:45:11.480 In the beginning, people didn't believe you.
00:45:13.180 But, well, a lot of people believe you today.
00:45:15.840 You're a hero for bringing the truth forward.
00:45:18.960 And I really hope that the city won't settle your lawsuit because you did nothing wrong.
00:45:27.600 And I have a Sal Greco did nothing wrong t-shirt.
00:45:30.480 I might wear it this weekend.
00:45:32.220 All right, Sal, thanks for joining us here in the Stone Zone.
00:45:35.760 Thank you, Roger.
00:45:36.800 God bless.
00:45:37.400 God bless, Troy.
00:45:38.000 All right, Troy, we've got a few minutes left here for politics.
00:45:43.200 Why don't you lead the way?
00:45:45.680 Well, Roger, we've got a lot of stuff to get to but a little time to do it, so we're going to have to just pick the best of it here.
00:45:51.760 And I think a good place to start would probably be Kamala Harris, an interview she recently did, just a couple of clips, just amazing stuff.
00:46:00.660 Because as we kind of see Kamala Harris go out into the media more, she's having, you know, being forced really to do more interviews because she's doing, she's done so few of them that she's actually falling out of favor with the media. 0.85
00:46:12.480 And though they are very still, you know, they're still very sycophantic, they really are mad, I think, angry at the fact that she has done so few interviews.
00:46:21.220 So here's a clip from an interview that she did just yesterday with MSNBC, probably the most favorable ground she could have possibly done the interview on, MSNBC.
00:46:32.160 And they asked her pretty directly about the tariffs.
00:46:35.800 And tariffs that Trump put on, people at home understand this, were left on by the Biden administration.
00:46:42.280 So while they criticized Trump for his foreign policy, the things that he left in place, they actually kept in place.
00:46:48.380 And Kamala Harris is asked directly about this.
00:46:50.740 And when she gives her answer, you kind of hear the fact that she doesn't know what a tariff is.
00:46:55.140 She doesn't have any idea what it is.
00:46:56.960 And she's really just, like you said yesterday, Roger, giving a canned response.
00:47:00.860 So let's roll this clip of Kamala Harris struggling to figure out what a tariff is. 1.00
00:47:04.620 And they get Roger's reactions to the unraveling of Kamala Harris, the more media she actually does.
00:47:11.100 Tariffs aren't unique to President Trump.
00:47:13.380 President Biden has tariffs in place.
00:47:15.140 He's actually looking to potentially implement more.
00:47:18.380 Where do you come out on?
00:47:19.580 Is there a good tariff, a bad tariff?
00:47:21.300 Well, part of it is you don't just throw around the idea of just tariffs across the board.
00:47:27.140 And that's part of the problem with Donald Trump.
00:47:29.200 Frankly, and I say this in all sincerity, he's just not very serious about how he thinks about some of these issues.
00:47:37.920 And one must be serious and have a plan.
00:47:41.940 Does she know what a tariff is?
00:47:47.160 I mean, I actually think that the reason she's beginning in most of the polling that I'm studying to lose ground is people are beginning to focus on the fact that she cannot answer a simple question.
00:47:57.860 That she seems to go to this default position of something she memorized for the ABC ambush debate.
00:48:06.000 Or she takes what was and has historically been her position and pretends that she was that was never her position.
00:48:15.040 So now, for example, she says if she's elected, she's going to hire hundreds of new border patrol agents. 0.64
00:48:22.000 She's going to seal the border as if she wasn't responsible for the border over the last three plus years. 0.95
00:48:30.420 It was very interesting.
00:48:31.640 Joe Biden, in a speech that I saw yesterday, really ties her very tightly to his administration, making it clear that everything we did, she was in on it, folks.
00:48:43.240 She she was right there.
00:48:44.560 She was in on it.
00:48:45.960 I think watching that performance on The View that we had yesterday, Joe Biden is very angry when he has lucid moments.
00:48:55.900 And I think he has some.
00:48:57.720 He's very angry.
00:48:59.620 They forced him out.
00:49:01.440 You heard him say yesterday, I didn't think my poll numbers were so bad.
00:49:05.860 My poll numbers showed that I was in range.
00:49:08.860 He actually said I was running about as strong.
00:49:12.360 Well, he said, as she is.
00:49:14.880 So I think that Joe Biden is subtly undermining her at every turn when he put on the Trump hat, when he posed with a whole bunch of kids wearing Trump T-shirts.
00:49:27.960 He said, no, that's not because he's around the bend.
00:49:30.040 He knows exactly what he's doing.
00:49:32.920 They forced him out against his will.
00:49:36.080 I still believe that they may yet try to force him out before the end of his term, only because that would elevate her to the historic position of being our first woman president.
00:49:50.000 I don't rule that out happening at all.
00:49:53.880 Well, the way the 25th Amendment, which I think they've already employed, that's how I believe they ultimately got him to to to drop out of the race. 0.70
00:50:03.820 First, they orchestrated the very, very early pre-convention CNN debate.
00:50:11.020 We've never had a presidential debate before the conventions have actually legally selected their candidates.
00:50:17.020 That's never happened.
00:50:18.460 So you got to wonder why Biden was so hot to do a pre-convention debate.
00:50:25.820 I think because he was being set up for failure and CNN was uncharacteristically fair in their conduct of that debate.
00:50:36.740 That's because they were setting Joe Biden up.
00:50:39.640 So I think they've already employed the 25th Amendment. 0.64
00:50:42.840 Now, the way that works is a majority of the cabinet and the vice president can remove the president under the 25th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
00:50:55.180 However, the president can appeal that decision to both houses of Congress.
00:51:00.740 And if both houses of Congress sustain the president, he would remain in office.
00:51:05.860 That's why Barack Obama lining up Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi, who I think still controls the House, and and Hakeem Jeffries, who is nominally the the Democrat minority leader, was crucial to cutting off any chance Joe Biden had of surviving.
00:51:28.120 But when Donald Trump said in the debate, Joe Biden hates her, pointing at Kamala Harris, you notice that Kamala Harris never refuted that.
00:51:39.740 It's because they're worried about what Joe might might say tomorrow.
00:51:44.260 I've got a few more minutes here, Troy.
00:51:46.100 What else do we have in our political lineup?
00:51:49.340 Well, Roger, you know, the Democrats are launching an all out of front frontal assault before the election.
00:51:55.220 And the key, the centerpiece of this seems to be abortion rights.
00:51:59.060 And the main piece of their abortion rights attack on Donald Trump is attributing the Project 2025 agenda, which he has repeatedly stated he has nothing to do with and saying that that is his.
00:52:12.060 We pulled some screenshots this morning from Agenda 47.
00:52:16.600 Now, this is President Trump's agenda office website.
00:52:19.400 You're going to see them on the screen now.
00:52:21.320 These are 20 points that are posted on the Trump Vance website.
00:52:26.000 This is not Project 2025, but this is Trump's agenda.
00:52:29.340 This is Agenda 47.
00:52:31.100 It's things like seal the border, end inflation, make America dominant in energy. 0.93
00:52:35.820 This is his platform.
00:52:37.500 Notice how it doesn't include a national abortion ban.
00:52:40.680 That's because President Trump doesn't support a national abortion ban.
00:52:44.120 He never has.
00:52:45.520 Yet those in the Democrat Party want to put that on him and say, yes, you do want that.
00:52:50.380 We have a clip yesterday from a committee meeting, a hearing by the steering committee.
00:52:57.020 And I want you to look at this, Roger, because this was an hour and a half of the Democrats saying Trump's 2025 agenda is going to destroy the country.
00:53:07.460 Now, remember this.
00:53:08.760 Project 2025 has nothing to do with Trump.
00:53:11.220 He's denounced it several times.
00:53:13.060 He said he has nothing to do with it.
00:53:14.940 He said he has no intention of following it.
00:53:16.940 Not only that, but he's published his own platform.
00:53:18.980 Yet these people freaked out for an hour and a half yesterday, claiming that his agenda, his agenda that he has nothing to do with, is going to destroy the country.
00:53:27.720 Let's roll a clip of that and get Roger's thoughts on this.
00:53:30.360 Project 2025 hysteria from the Democrats.
00:53:34.620 Buried in Project 2025 is a not-so-secret plan to eliminate overtime pay.
00:53:42.480 It's a generous gift to corporations and an insult to the American worker.
00:53:49.720 Many working families, especially in my state of Michigan, but in many others across the heartland of America and the rest of the country, rely on overtime to make ends meet and to save for their future.
00:54:04.300 In fact, we know that many workers take on jobs specifically because employers offer overtime.
00:54:13.300 But under Trump's Project 2025, employers could force workers to work more than 40 hours a week without paying them time and a half.
00:54:26.760 In other words, you work harder and you earn less.
00:54:32.560 Workers deserve better. 0.78
00:54:34.600 If it's fair for the Democrats to say that Project 2025 is Trump's agenda because some people who support Trump worked on it, well, then it's fair to say that the U.S. Communist Party platform is the platform of Kamala Harris because a number of people who support Kamala Harris worked on compiling that.
00:55:03.300 Now, she would deny that that is her agenda, but then Trump has denied that, correctly, that Project 2025 is his platform.
00:55:14.140 His platform is very clear.
00:55:16.660 It doesn't include a federal abortion bill.
00:55:18.880 It doesn't include this idea that he's going to put a new 20 percent tax on every American.
00:55:24.460 They're talking about his proposal to reduce federal taxes and replace that revenue with stronger tariffs.
00:55:31.600 It doesn't include ending IVF, another one of the biggest smears, this idea that he would outlaw fertility drugs or that he would take away women's contraceptives.
00:55:44.980 They continue to run on what is solely a campaign of lies, a massive, massive campaign of lies.
00:55:55.440 All right.
00:55:55.800 I think we have to wrap it up there.
00:55:58.960 I want to thank my co-host, Troy Smith, for joining us today in the Stone Zone.
00:56:04.280 I also want to thank our guest, Sal Greco, New York City police officer, to help us understand the shocking news out of New York, which was the indictment of Democrat Mayor Eric Adams in 40 days before an election.
00:56:20.240 Really quite extraordinary.
