Trump's White House Chief of Staff, Susie Wiles, has been diagnosed with breast cancer and will be spending the next few months in treatment at the White House. President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump express their support for her and say they are looking forward to working with her in the future.
00:00:00.000this is the stone zone with roger stone people love him and respect him roger stone now
00:00:17.320it's the stone zone here's roger stone you are now entering the stone zone of course
00:00:27.100the big news. White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, the first woman chief of staff in history
00:00:33.900who very ably helmed Donald Trump's combat bid for the presidency in 2024, has been diagnosed
00:00:42.660early, thank God, with breast cancer. The president putting out a statement saying that Susie Wiles,
00:00:50.540an incredible chief of staff, a great person, and one of the strongest people I know, but
00:00:55.200unfortunately has been diagnosed with early breast cancer and has decided to take this challenge
00:01:01.100immediately as opposed to waiting. She has a fantastic medical team and her prognosis is
00:01:07.260excellent. During the treatment period, she will be spending virtually full time at the White House,
00:01:13.220which makes me, as president, very happy. Her strength and her commitment to continue
00:01:19.760doing the job she loves and does so well while undergoing these treatments tells you everything
00:01:25.820you need to know about Susie Wiles. Susie, as one of my closest and most important advisors,
00:01:32.320is tough and deeply committed to serving the American people. She will soon be better than
00:01:38.220ever. Melania and I are with her in every way and we look forward to working with Susie on the many
00:01:44.200big and wonderful things that are happening for the benefit our country, signed President Donald
00:01:49.980Trump. Now, Susie Wiles has a long and fabled political history. She's, of course, the daughter
00:01:55.820of the famous sportscaster Pat Summerall. But she really first came to political prominence when she
00:02:03.360successfully elected outsider Rick Scott to the governorship of Florida. Rick Scott
00:02:09.520was a hospital executive who wanted to serve. The party favorite was Attorney General Bill
00:02:16.060McCollum. But Rick Scott, with the able help of Susie Wiles, came out of nowhere to win not only
00:02:25.220the nomination, but then to elect Rick Scott, who went on to become both a great conservative
00:02:30.720governor of Florida and later on a U.S. senator. That brought Susie Wiles to the attention of1.00
00:02:37.760Donald Trump. 2016, Suzy Wiles could have worked for Marco Rubio, could have worked for Governor1.00
00:02:43.880Jeb Bush of her homestead of Florida. Instead, she went to work for Donald Trump. And frankly,
00:02:49.900if she had not been parachuted into Florida in the closing days of the 2016 race, I doubt that
00:02:56.580Trump would have carried the state. Then, of course, the president asked Suzy Wiles to go0.99
00:03:03.020into the campaign of Ron DeSantis because it was a fiasco. DeSantis had been endorsed by Donald
00:03:12.580Trump in 2018. Now, what Donald Trump never knew was that in 2016, when they were both on the
00:03:19.020ballot, Ron DeSantis refused to endorse Donald Trump, fearing that Trump would somehow pull the
00:03:24.520ticket down. In fact, in the end, Trump won bigger in DeSantis' district than DeSantis won. But once
00:03:32.460Trump became president, DeSantis decided to reinvent himself as a stout defender of Donald
00:03:38.460Trump in the Russian collusion hoax. And a last minute endorsement by Donald Trump
00:03:45.200actually catapulted Ron DeSantis to the governor's nomination. Virtually every Republican county
00:03:53.540chairman, every Republican state senator, every member of the House, all the members of Congress,
00:04:00.340other than my friend Matt Gaetz, had endorsed Adam Putnam, who was the favorite. But Putnam
00:04:08.240himself said the endorsement by Trump of Ron DeSantis was like a seismic nuclear explosion.
00:04:16.540And of course, then President Trump had to come to Florida to drag Ron DeSantis over the finish
00:04:22.340line by a mere 15,000 votes out of, I think it was five and a half million cast. But it was
00:04:31.000at the request of Donald Trump that Susie Wiles joined the DeSantis entourage, and she was really
00:04:38.440the one who engineered DeSantis' narrow victory. Only several months later, to be thrown to the
00:04:47.420curbs. Susie Wiles was working quite ably as an advisor to the State Republican Committee, to0.97
00:04:54.740Ron DeSantis' super PAC, to President Trump's re-election campaign, and holding down a full-time
00:05:00.820job as a public affairs consultant and lobbyist, when, for reasons no one has really understood,
00:05:11.580Casey DeSantis went on a rampage, and Susie Wiles was dismissed from all of those jobs on the same day.
00:05:20.000Not many Republicans wanted to defend Susie Wiles then, but if you look it up in Politico, I said, and I quote,
00:05:25.560Ron DeSantis will rue the day he did this, and indeed it was so.
00:05:31.560When Donald Trump decided that he was going to run for the White House again, the first person he called was Susie Wiles.
00:05:38.480Susie Wiles eagerly signed on what on paper I think should have looked like a near impossible task.0.84
00:05:45.640But then teaming with the extraordinarily capable Chris LaCivita and with the help of, in my opinion, the best pollster today in the Republican Party, the best survey researcher, among the best strategists, New York's own Tony Fabrizio.
00:06:02.120They ran a near-perfect campaign, and during the campaign, Susie Wiles was also much maligned.1.00
00:06:13.000People kept insisting we weren't prepared for election integrity when we were.
00:06:16.900People kept insisting that the party, that the campaign didn't know what they were doing.
00:06:23.440Corey Lewandowski launched at least one failed attempt, coup attempt, to take over the campaign.
00:06:29.480That was slapped down relatively quickly, and of course, Suzy Wiles emerged a winner.1.00
00:06:35.840Now, I must tell you, as someone who has known Donald Trump for over 50 years, Suzy Wiles has that elusive quality in that she knows her client.
00:06:46.300You see, Donald Trump is not handled, he's not managed, he's not scripted, he's not cajoled, he's not led anyplace.
00:06:54.760He asks for information, but he's very much his own man.
00:06:59.480The only thing that you can say, the only thing I like to say, the only thing predictable about Donald Trump is he's completely unpredictable.
00:07:08.620And Susie Wiles has brought order into what in the 2016 and the 2020 campaign was chaos.
00:07:17.480So there's a system in place for information to be synthesized, for the president to be given options.
00:07:25.140Susie Wiles, I think, like every presidential chief of staff, she takes the heat for things she had nothing to do with.1.00
00:07:30.720No one ever wants to say, oh, the president made a stupid mistake here.
00:07:34.440So instead they say, well, the president must be getting bad advice.
00:07:41.620But people need to understand if there had been no Susie Wiles, there would never have been the great alliance with RFK and the Maha movement.
00:07:50.720And Susie Wiles was one of the earliest advocates, told me all about the books of Casey and Callie Means and how your diet can change your life.
00:08:00.740And indeed, in my case, it has. Susie Wiles has been a major supporter of the Maha agenda.
00:08:06.980But most specifically, it was Susie Wiles who negotiated the alliance in which Donald Trump and at that point, Robert F. Kennedy, who had qualified on many ballots to run as independent, teamed up.
00:08:20.720post-Butler. It was Susie Wiles who negotiated that deal. Now, as someone who is very early
00:08:28.460into the health choice movement, my family and I are praying for Susie Wiles. What the president
00:08:34.420said is true. She's the toughest person I know. When Susie Wiles looks at you, you don't know
00:08:39.620whether she's about to break your kneecaps or bake you a casserole. She's been a friend of mine for
00:08:46.04030 years. We worked together in Ronald Reagan's campaign for president in 1980. We worked together
00:08:51.040in Jack Kemp's campaign in 1988. She is an incredibly capable and organized woman. And I
00:09:00.320hope that she will avail herself of some of the alternative treatments. My wife is a cancer
00:09:05.160survivor. I've talked about it here in the Stone Zone. I'm convinced that her life was saved by a
00:09:10.100combination of both Eastern and Western medicines. I also think that there are, and I'm not a doctor
00:09:16.580and I'm not giving any medical advice to anyone, but there are drugs like menbendazole, which is
00:09:22.460a derivative of fenbendazole, which is an FDA approved drug. I think it is, this would be an
00:09:28.880off-label use. It's approved for use with animals. So it was with ivermectin. Ivermectin, of course,
00:09:35.100won a Nobel Peace Prize. It saved so many lives. Also, I believe studies show it quite effective
00:09:41.060against cancer. So I pray for Susie Wiles. I know she will beat this. She's the most effective
00:09:48.160White House chief of staff in history because she understands Donald Trump and she understands how0.76
00:09:54.640he wants the flow of information to go. She has the hardest job in the world because, as I say,1.00
00:10:00.360Trump is not some marionette. He is very, very much his own man.
00:10:07.680She ran, in my opinion, probably the best Republican campaign for the presidency in American history.1.00
00:10:13.740And we here at the Stone Zone wish her a speedy recovery, although it sounds like she's going to stay on the job.
00:10:22.720I'm glad I was able to clear up some of the false attacks on her, this idea that she was a lobbyist for Pfizer.
00:10:29.060That's another one of my favorite ones. She worked for a short time as a partner, not a stakeholder or an equity holder. In a 346-person firm, she did not represent Pfizer. Someone else in the firm did. That was for a brief period.
00:10:42.980So this idea that she's a big pharma agent, that's a slur, and it's a falsehood.
00:10:50.820I don't think Trump would have won this election without her and her excellent judgment.
00:10:57.560So I'm enjoying watching what's happening in Cuba as Donald Trump puts on the economic pressure.
00:11:05.600The communist government there is now preparing for a major economic shift that would allow Cuban Americans to invest in private businesses on the island.
00:11:15.580This is an apparent response to mounting pressure from the United States, an apparent response to the fact that they have lost about 80 percent of their oil with Trump taking control of Venezuela.
00:11:29.760So short on food, short on oil, short on everyday necessities, a pair of tires for a car non-existent in Cuba.
00:11:39.100Socialism is failing, and the Cubans are very clearly cognizant of what just happened in Venezuela.
00:11:46.480There are reports that officials could soon announce these reforms, which would allow Cubans living abroad, including many who live in South Florida, own and invest in small companies.
00:11:57.220In other words, they need a dose of capitalism to save the communist utopia.
00:12:02.740The embargo works because, you see, if you're, say, a Spanish company and you partnered with somebody in Cuba to do business, you had to partner with the government.
00:12:12.400You paid the government dollars, they paid the workers pesos, and they used the overage to pay for the police state and the authoritarian state that spies on and oppresses the Cuban people.
00:12:23.800This is a much, much better idea in terms of opening Cuba up.1.00
00:12:29.040Donald Trump, very consistent on this.
00:12:31.100They begged him to build hotels and casinos there in the 80s.
00:12:34.740And he said that he would love to do so, but not until the Cuban people were free.
00:12:39.640It looks to me like that's going to be sooner rather than later.
00:12:43.240There will be great celebration in the Stone household because my wife, Nidia Bertrand de Espinosa Stone,
00:14:21.900We're watching events unfold in communist Cuba, just 90 miles from our shores.
00:14:27.420The Cuban leader, Miguel Diaz-Canel, actually confirmed Friday that officials of his government in Havana are holding formal talks with Washington
00:14:36.940and suggested that the government is looking for ways to involve Cubans living abroad in rebuilding the struggling economy.
00:14:47.240After decades of social mismanagement, Cuba's economy is a basket case.
00:14:53.140Infrastructure is crumbling, shortages are widespread, there are rolling blackouts of power.
00:14:59.260Nearly two million Cubans, both young and educated, have fled the country for lack of opportunity.
00:15:06.060Supporters of reform say Cuban Americans could provide the investment, the skill and expertise needed to revive the island's private sector.
00:15:13.980Now, Havana has a very long history of renouncing reforms only to reverse themselves.
00:15:21.860That's Donald J. Trump and his able deputy secretary of state, Marco Rubio.
00:15:28.360And if they know that if they back off, the Maduro treatment is entirely possible.
00:15:35.340This is an incredible success of President Trump's peace through strength foreign policy that is quickly remaking Latin America.
00:15:42.520If you look across the region, whether it is in Argentina, whether it is in Chile, or whether it is in Honduras, or whether it is any place in this hemisphere, freedom is on the march.
00:16:00.460And the Lula regime seems to me to be teetering, the last large Marxist regime in the region.
00:16:11.940Much of this can be given, I think, can be attributed to the strong leadership of President Trump in this hemisphere.
00:16:20.080At the same time, he is warning our American allies that the future of NATO could be at stake if they refuse to help secure the vital Straits of Hormuz.
00:16:30.240You know, the Straits of Hormuz up there by Iran, about 40 percent of the nation's oil passes through there on any given day.
00:16:40.720And the president says it's only fair that nations who benefit from that sea lane of trade also pay to defend it.
00:16:48.100He called on China, France, Japan, South Korea, and the United Kingdom.
00:16:52.500Well, the Chinese support the Iraqis, so I don't think they'll be coming to play.1.00
00:16:57.760Pardon me, the Iranians, but I don't think they'll be coming to play.1.00
00:17:00.600But the president's calling on others to deploy their naval forces to the region to help guarantee free passage.
00:17:10.860John Katsimatidis of United Refining gave a great interview the other day, which he said he thinks it is temporary and a small price to pay.
00:17:18.680General Michael Flynn also told us right here in the Stone Zone, he thought the U.S. Navy would ultimately prevail and keep the waterways open.
00:18:26.720So far, President Donald Trump's foreign policy has not been recycled neoconservatism.
00:18:33.260He has used American power in a very limited, very focused, but very lethal way.
00:18:40.560First in Iran, then of course in Venezuela, now once again in Iran.
00:18:47.360No boots on the ground, no heavy American casualties, no multi-billion dollar contracts for defense contractors like Halliburton and General Dynamics and others.
00:19:03.360He and his generals insist this war will be short.
00:19:07.720We pray that they are correct about that, in which case I think the American people will continue to support it.
00:19:16.480And despite the fact that Donald Trump was elected as a non-interventionist, on the issue of action specifically against Iran, he has been consistent since as early as 1988.
00:19:30.820So those who think this is some new gene really doesn't understand him.
00:19:37.500The Iranians have killed thousands of Americans.1.00
00:19:41.120There was those murdered at the Marine barracks in Beirut in 1981.
00:19:46.480One, there was, of course, the attack on the USS Cole, the attack on the World Trade Center.
00:19:58.880And the treatment of their own people, the brutality of the way they held power, I think, hastened these attacks.
00:20:08.740On the other hand, they continue to have the capacity to fire both drones and rockets.
00:20:17.700So while we may have wounded them, perhaps fatally, as the velocity of their attacks are down substantially,
00:20:28.700they are still capable of launching both drone and missile attacks at their Arab nations and specifically at the Straits of Hormuz.
00:20:38.600I think the straits are crucial here. The president knew that they would move immediately as they promised to try to close the straits.
00:20:47.700Right here on this show, General Michael Flynn assured us that he believed the U.S. Navy had the capacity to keep the straits clear.
00:20:56.060President Donald Trump, as I said earlier, called on other nations who have the same interest that we have on the free flow of commerce, particularly energy, through the straits.
00:21:08.660Before long, the Iranian Navy, I think, will be so degraded that they'll no longer be able to cause us problems there.1.00
00:21:21.400I was happy to see John Katsimatidis, who owns United Refining, knows a great deal about energy.
00:21:28.420He's one of the businesses he's in, say that he thought that this increase in oil prices was temporary
00:21:34.240and it would be a blip and worth paying for for the larger benefit of liberating the people of Iran.
00:21:44.440New intelligence suggests there's deep turmoil at the top of the current ruling regime
00:21:49.640following the death of the longtime Supreme Leader,
00:21:53.560ala Khomeini, who was essentially vaporized by a drone
00:22:11.900where they could decapitate the head of the snake,
00:22:16.220but it appears that's exactly what they've done.
00:22:19.640It is now reported that the late Ayatollah Khomeini, not to be confused with the Ayatollah Khomeini, that's the guy who seized and held 254 American hostages in 1979.
00:22:35.780That's not to be confused with the current Khomeini, who is Mojit Bah Khomeini, the Supreme Leader's son, who's now the top man.
00:22:48.320And there's a lot of questions about his inexperience, whether he's prepared to leave.
00:22:53.680There are even some rumors, unfounded or I should say unverified, that he is a closeted homosexual, which, of course, in that culture would mean death.
00:23:05.340Despite the aforementioned problems, Ali's ruling clerical council moved very quickly after Trump zapped Ali Khamenei's death to name the sun as the country's new leader.
00:23:18.660That decision marks a controversial moment in Iran's political history since 1979, led by the Ruhala Khomeini, was supposed to end heredity-style rule.
00:23:32.160That was part of the argument of the Mullers, that the Pavlavis was a monarchy and the monarchy was bad.
00:23:41.400U.S. officials believed that the son now in charge may have survived the initial attacks by the U.S.
00:23:50.260U.S. officials believe that he was, however, severely injured in the Israeli missile strike that killed his father.
00:23:57.860He's believed to be essentially a figurehead with real authority now resting in Iran's super hardline Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, which is directing the regime responses as the conflict continues.
00:24:13.460President Trump has publicly dismissed a young Khomeini who has supposedly injured one of his legs.
00:24:21.880The reports are that he has been hospitalized and suggested that Iran's leadership structure is collapsing under pressure from the United States.
00:24:31.580The U.S. government has now offered a reward of up to $10 million for information leading to the location of the current leader, Khomeini, and other senior Iranian officials.
00:24:46.920My guess, of course, is that our intelligence officers and the Israelis know exactly where they are.0.99
00:24:53.220This is a pressure tactic on the regime.
00:24:56.820They're constantly looking skyward, as you might imagine.
00:25:00.680The chaos inside Iran shows the regime is increasingly unstable.
00:25:05.200It appears to be on the verge of breaking.
00:25:07.780The Iranian people may be fully liberated before long, but this is very far from over, those who believe it is over.
00:25:16.060Politically, it has to be a short engagement, but Donald Trump has demonstrated his skillful use of overwhelming force.
00:25:24.380On the other hand, he says there are no more targets to hit.
00:25:27.060I don't know if that's entirely accurate, but he has remade our military into a lethal fighting force.
00:25:34.580They proved that in Venezuela, and we have to see how this plays out.
00:25:41.020I think that the American people have no appetite for a long-drawn-out war,
00:25:46.260but I think Donald Trump, of all people, understands that.
00:25:49.440The platform on which he was elected has been a watchword of his political career.
00:25:57.060particularly those wars that he criticized as being about regime change.
00:26:02.000He's explained why Venezuela is not about regime change,
00:26:18.500I think it is absolutely accurate that they were building nuclear weapons.
00:26:21.940I think we set them back with our earlier attacks,
00:26:24.560But they're now confirmation they had enough enriched uranium to build 11 devices, and their Chinese friends most likely would provide them the ability to propel that to most American cities.0.94
00:26:39.460It is a threat that is very, very real.
00:26:43.880You know, I used to really enjoy watching the Oscars.
00:26:46.560Oscars. I'm not a giant movie fan, but I like to see what people wore when they show up,
00:26:53.420particularly the gentlemen. There was a day when every movie star went to the Oscars wearing a
00:27:00.880resplendent dinner jacket, what plebeians call a tuxedo, and of course a black tie.
00:27:08.020And you saw all your favorite stars completely decked out, the women wearing, of course,1.00
00:27:12.820long gowns. Hollywood gathered for the 2026 Oscars this week, but the ceremony served mostly as a
00:27:21.060reminder that the entertainment industry is increasingly out of control and out of touch
00:27:26.460with the American people and really functions as a propaganda arm for the deep state. Since 2019,
00:27:34.520inflation-adjusted box office revenues have reportedly dropped by almost 40 percent,
00:27:40.040while theater attendance has been cut in half.
00:27:42.980That's because people are rejecting the godless, pornographic, woke fare
00:27:51.520being served up by the big studios in Hollywood.
00:27:55.520I think the decline reflects the growing frustration with an industry
00:27:59.420that prioritizes political messaging over storytelling,
00:28:06.200Go woke, go broke, as others before me have said.
00:28:11.160Comedian Conan O'Brien, of course, hosted the ceremony and quickly took shots at conservatives.
00:28:17.480His monologue, including jokes aimed at alternative entertainment events, promoted by Turning Point USA.
00:28:24.980Thanks for the free advertising, Conan.
00:28:28.360He also, throughout the night, took many, many pot shots at Donald Trump and U.S. foreign policy.
00:28:35.460Several winners, of course, took their 15 minutes to criticize military action involving Iran while conveniently glossing over the Iranian government's violent crackdown on its own citizens that did not seem to bother them.
00:28:50.240Among the night's biggest awards, Beck's picture went to one battle after another, a film lionizing far-left Antifa domestic terrorism.
00:29:02.320Despite receiving the fawning praise from Hollywood insiders,
00:29:06.100the movie has reportedly lost about $100 million at the box office.
00:29:11.880Yes, that's the film that got Best Picture.
00:30:26.100According to a federal lawsuit, Dylan Parker,
00:30:30.200a student at Palisades Charter High School,
00:30:33.320told staff during the 2019-2020 school year
00:30:37.520that he wanted to be called Aria and use female pronouns
00:30:42.120as he began identifying as transgender.
00:30:45.120His parents, Kathleen Mulligan and Andrew Park,
00:30:48.780say school staff deliberately kept that information from them.
00:30:52.600The parents say their son had already been diagnosed with depression and was especially vulnerable to outside influence.
00:31:00.320In an email to the school, Mulligan expressed concerns that their son, Dylan, might be struggling with deeper mental health issues and could be easily influenced by peers.
00:31:12.700She stressed that she was not opposed to transgender individually, but believed her son needed careful support and permanent involvement.
00:31:19.680According to the lawsuit filed against the school district, the school district ignored the parents and instead affirmed the transition without notifying either parent or including them in any of the decisions about their minor child's treatment.
00:31:35.640The complaint alleges staff even provided information about housing resources for LGBT youth, further distancing the teenager from his family.
00:31:46.400Dylan Park sadly died by suicide on March 2024 at the age of 19.
00:31:52.680His parents say the secrecy created division at their home, and that is why they brought the lawsuit.
00:32:10.180The lawsuit comes as the courts continue to scrutinize California's policies that actually restrict schools from informing parents about children's gender identity activities.
00:32:22.440These seem to me to risk sideline families, but put vulnerable children at greatest risk to predators.
00:32:28.520School administrators have drunk their Kool-Aid and they're putting the health of our children in jeopardy.
00:32:33.820I think it is outrageous, but then it is, after all, Gavin Newsom's California.
00:32:38.720Just remember, Gavin Newsom, he would do for America what he's done for California, which is to say, drive it into the toilet.
00:32:48.500I don't know how this guy thinks he's running for president on his record of failure, but coming up soon, massive revelations about missing money.
00:32:57.020Millions and millions and millions of state funding disappearing into thin air, disappearing into Gavin Newsom's political machine.
00:33:05.320I'm Roger Stone, you're listening to The Stone Zone, and we'll be right back.
00:33:09.940This is The Stone Zone with Roger Stone.
00:33:13.700He likes politics and he's a professional at the highest level.
00:33:35.320this is the stone zone with roger stone roger stone who's a very very one of the smartest
00:33:44.540political minds roger stone was persecuted people forget he's actually a brilliant brilliant
00:33:49.320political analyst now get him a zone it's the stone zone here's roger stone and we're back
00:33:57.940in the stone zone a new government report reveals just how costly new york city's
00:34:03.240homelessness crisis has become, and taxpayers are footing the bill. According to a report by the
00:34:08.820office of Thomas P. DiNopoli, the state controller, the city spent roughly $81,000 per homeless person
00:34:18.340last year through the programs run by New York City's Department of Homeless Services. So in total,
00:34:23.580the city spent around $368 million on services aimed at people living on the streets. More than
00:34:32.700tripled the $102 million spent in 2019. Despite the massive increases in spending, the number of
00:34:40.820unsheltered homeless individuals actually rose by about 26% during the same period,
00:34:47.140climbing from roughly $3,600 in 2019 to more than $4,500 in 2025. The report highlights the
00:34:57.240troubling reality. New York taxpayers are now spending nearly twice as much per homeless person
00:35:03.860as the city spends educating a public school student. Much of the new spending is going
00:35:09.320towards so-called low-barrier shelters and drop-in centers. Programs allow individuals to come in
00:35:15.820and eat and go freely, get a shower, sometimes providing temporary sleeping space. Critics argue
00:35:22.960The system offers services without addressing the root causes of homelessness.
00:35:28.380Former city controller Scott Stringer said the numbers raise serious questions about accountability.
00:35:35.000With this level of spending, even Stringer, a liberal Democrat, argued the city should be seeing far better results.
00:35:42.840Meanwhile, New York's overall homeless population has surged during 80 percent during 2019,
00:35:48.840Driven in part, of course, by migration and the ongoing housing crisis, with costs expecting to climb to $456 million by 2026, thanks to Socialist Mayor Zoran Mandami, the homeless situation will only be getting drastically worse in the years to come.
00:36:11.020This is what the people of New York have voted for, and it is very clear that we are going to experience both a crime crisis and a homeless crisis under this administration.
00:36:26.580We're also going to have a massive housing crisis because of the legislation that prohibits a landlord from selling his property without first offering it to the city.
00:36:36.880And then even when the city allows him to put it on the market after taking a pass, he has to give the city, the landlord has to give the city like last look.
00:36:52.680It is an unconstitutional control of private property rights.
00:36:59.260But then property rights don't really matter much to this mayor.
00:37:03.840I think you've just seen the beginnings of these problems as they attempt to drive a woke agenda in New York City.
00:37:14.600And it remains to be seen how much Mayor Mandami is going to step up for Kathy Hochul.
00:37:20.400They seem to have a mutual non-aggression or I should say mutual endorsement pact that will make any Republicans' success in the governor's race far, far more difficult.
00:37:32.980But we'll be covering all of it right here at the Stone Zone at the Red Apple Audio Networks, whether it's New York politics or national politics or New Jersey politics or California politics.
00:37:46.160You get it all right here in the Stone Zone.
00:37:48.560We talk politics, news, history, culture, say that advisedly, and style.
00:37:56.620Thanks for joining us today until tomorrow.
