00:00:30.120 Mothers, if you're watching this, this story is kind of dedicated to you,
00:00:32.820 and I would encourage you to get a little bit upset and annoyed
00:00:35.220 and talk about it with your friends.
00:00:36.660 Imagine living in the financial capital of the world called New York City,
00:00:41.080 New York State, ran by a mayor, Mamdani, right,
00:00:45.400 who, socialist, communist, he said some stuff that's socialist and communist,
00:00:49.900 Islamist, this is a guy that becomes a mayor.
00:00:52.140 By the way, he wins fairly.
00:00:53.440 Like, it's not like he cheated to win.
00:00:55.280 He ends up winning.
00:00:56.120 He beats all the other guys.
00:00:57.880 New York City votes for him.
00:00:59.100 Hochul becomes the governor, and now they're talking about two words that they don't want you to be using.
00:01:05.200 Democrats replace mother with gestating parent in latest woke rewrite of New York law.
00:01:14.320 And when I first read this, it wasn't a story for me because I thought it was fake.
00:01:18.420 Like, there's no way in the world this is real.
00:01:20.360 Okay?
00:01:20.820 Rob, is this the story that you have there?
00:01:22.720 Yes, this is Kathy Hochul asking if she's going to sign this into law.
00:01:25.660 Go for it.
00:01:26.380 Not familiar with what was introduced late last night.
00:01:29.100 So I'll take a look at it.
00:01:30.380 I have until the end of the year to review them and make a decision.
00:01:32.820 So I won't be commenting on pending legislation.
00:01:34.880 Okay, so let me read this here.
00:01:35.940 New bill would replace the word mother and father in New York State,
00:01:39.000 child custody and parental laws with gender-neutral language.
00:01:42.300 Mother would be replaced with gestating parent,
00:01:44.940 while father would become non-gestating parent or simply parent in family court,
00:01:49.660 as well as in domestic and educational law under legislation passed by state Democrats.
00:01:54.180 Paternity proceedings to determine a child's biological father would become percentage,
00:01:58.020 cases under the bill a putative father would be referred to as an alleged parent in official 0.95
00:02:05.120 records what a freaking shitshow the legislation was sponsored by senator luis sepoveda you know 0.85
00:02:11.180 it's a great street in la but i don't know about this bill an assemblyman amy paulin will be sent 0.98
00:02:16.640 to governor cathyoko for consideration it's woke culture run amok it's one upmanship says state
00:02:23.740 conservative chairman gerard kassar he argued the legislation was unnecessary and predicted it could
00:02:28.980 lead to additional efforts to replace traditional terminology in state law so imagine people who
00:02:34.880 are considering moving to new york seeing this and saying do i need this silliness this is really a
00:02:39.860 weird group of elected officials it comes out of the left field tom your thoughts on the story
00:02:44.340 well i'm confused because the way most people in new york when i'm visiting there you know you go
00:02:50.460 to get a cab or whatever out in front.
00:02:52.120 Vinny, you used to live in New York.
00:02:53.980 The guy comes up to me and says, what's up, mother effer?
00:02:56.620 So he has to change it.
00:02:58.980 Now he has to say, what's up, non-gestating effer?
00:03:03.040 It takes the sting out of it.
00:03:04.540 It takes the sting out of it.
00:03:05.220 It's going to make New York a zoo, don't you think?
00:03:10.160 A hundred percent. 0.99
00:03:11.240 No, I think this is ridiculous. 0.60
00:03:12.520 So when you go to politically correct, 0.97
00:03:17.020 you go straight to politically confusing and ridiculous.
00:03:22.060 When is politically correct where we try not to offend somebody? 0.88
00:03:27.020 The whole point of political correctness is not to offend somebody.
00:03:31.980 The Native Americans were known that way as a group, and there were tribes of Native Americans.
00:03:38.760 So then they go and attack the Washington Redskins.
00:03:41.840 I could see how people potentially were offended by that.
00:03:44.980 But the Cleveland Indians? Really? You made the Cleveland Indians, which is a generic term, change their name?
00:03:53.020 This is where the snowball goes down on political correctness. 0.92
00:03:58.420 And we end at the bottom of ridiculous. And I agree with the Republicans about one-upmanship of ridiculous. 0.97
00:04:05.140 Maybe let's find out, Rob, if you want to pull up this guy's face so we know. Maybe he's a good guy. 0.89
00:04:09.400 Maybe Luis Sepulveda is, like, right there.
00:04:11.900 So Luis Sepulveda, American attorney politician who currently serves as New York State Senator in 32nd Senate District, which includes the Bronx.
00:04:17.640 Okay, can we go a little bit?
00:04:19.040 Sepulveda is a close ally of Bill de Blasio.
00:04:20.780 Remember Bill de Blasio as a mayor.
00:04:23.240 Go a little bit lower on his past victories and stuff that he's done to protect mothers and fathers.
00:04:28.980 So in 2015, his wife requested an order of protection against him after she alleged that an argument between them turned violent.
00:04:35.940 A restraining order was never issued.
00:04:37.400 In 2021, police responded to a 911 call from Sepulveda's wife.
00:04:40.960 When the police arrived, both Sepulveda and his wife claimed the other had assaulted them.
00:04:45.840 Later, Sepulveda turned in and was arrested allegedly, assaulting his wife,
00:04:49.540 and was charged with assault and third-degree criminal obstruction of breathing and arrest.
00:04:53.320 This can't be the same guy, Rob.
00:04:55.040 It's the same guy.
00:04:55.760 It's the same guy.
00:04:57.120 And by the way—
00:04:57.760 Prosecutors dropped charges in August that are following these incidents.
00:04:59.900 Why did they drop them?
00:05:01.680 Andrea Stewart-Cousins removed Sepulveda from his committee chairmanship for Crime Victims Committee 0.99
00:05:06.180 and Crime and Correction Committee and elected officials like Nathalia,
00:05:11.780 Fernandez, and Robert called on him to resign if the alleged were true.
00:05:15.540 He no-showed to court, did not appear in court to represent at least four clients
00:05:21.140 in 2026.
00:05:22.320 So this guy's obviously a phenomenal guy when you're looking at something like that.
00:05:25.840 By the way, are we positive this is him?
00:05:27.340 I don't want to get a call and say this isn't the same guy.
00:05:29.740 This is from the New York Post.
00:05:31.400 This is who they said was the author behind the list.
00:05:33.880 And this is the guy that wants to change it from mother and father to gestating and non-gestating?
00:05:38.840 Yeah, because he's been kicked off his crime committees where he was trying to fix crime.
00:05:42.640 So now he has to find something to do, and he goes politically correct, and this is what it is.
00:05:47.440 Wow. Wow.
00:05:48.960 Now, what's his purpose?
00:05:52.080 Is he trying to improve Americans' vocabulary so people know what gestating and non-gestating means?
00:05:57.100 What is his purpose?
00:05:58.140 Is he doing this because he literally believes it's offensive to say mother and father?
00:06:02.580 Can I read something to mothers real quick?
00:06:05.140 Mothers, let me just read something to you real quick on how amazing and special you are
00:06:09.600 and the impact you have in kids' lives.
00:06:11.680 I watched this, and I shared it with my wife,
00:06:14.220 and I thought it was a beautiful story of mothers and daughters.
00:06:19.660 When I was 17 years old, this girl says,
00:06:21.820 I called my mom at 1.47 a.m. from a party I wasn't supposed to be at,
00:06:27.140 surrounded by people she didn't even know.
00:06:30.060 I said only, I need you to come and pick me up, Mom.
00:06:34.140 She replied, I'm on my way.
00:06:36.480 No question, not then, not during the drive, never.
00:06:41.140 I thought she was angry.
00:06:42.480 She wasn't.
00:06:43.840 She arrived in 12 minutes.
00:06:45.840 That meant she had left the house immediately.
00:06:48.400 She got into the car wearing the same clothes she had been sleeping in
00:06:52.240 and drove across the city at 2 a.m. to pick me up from a party she didn't even know existed.
00:06:58.120 I got into the car. She looked at me just once. Then she drove on in silence. The drive home was
00:07:06.200 silent, not tense, just silent. I kept waiting for the questions. Where were you? Who were all
00:07:12.340 those people? Why did you lie to me? But they never came. She simply turned the radio down low
00:07:18.240 and drove the way she always did. And if I wasn't in trouble, as if it were just an ordinary night.
00:07:25.160 When we got home, she opened the door and said,
00:07:27.520 drink some water before you go to bed.
00:07:29.460 Then she went to her room, and that was it.
00:07:32.180 That was the end of it.
00:07:33.720 I stayed awake all night, waited for morning,
00:07:36.500 waiting for the lecture, but morning came,
00:07:38.740 she made X for breakfast, and simply asked
00:07:41.400 what I wanted to do that day.
00:07:43.820 Ever since I became a mother myself,
00:07:45.920 I've often thought back to that night,
00:07:47.780 and I think about what my mom understood then
00:07:50.440 that I didn't.
00:07:52.120 She knew only one thing.
00:07:53.740 I had called her.
00:07:54.660 And that was enough.
00:07:56.140 I was somewhere I wasn't supposed to be.
00:07:58.240 But in that moment, I chose her.
00:08:00.040 I called her my mom.
00:08:01.440 And to her, that meant everything.
00:08:04.020 Nothing else mattered.
00:08:05.400 She would never have punished me for making that call.
00:08:08.880 Now I have a daughter of my own.
00:08:10.960 And there's one thing I tell her more than almost anything else.
00:08:14.460 I will always come and get you.
00:08:17.120 No questions asked, no matter where you are.
00:08:19.600 No matter what you told me before, just call me and I'll come.
00:08:23.880 That's what my mom taught me.
00:08:25.840 She never said it with words.
00:08:27.960 She simply showed up for me at 1.47 a.m.
00:08:31.580 That's how she taught me.
00:08:33.260 Several years later, I called her.
00:08:34.760 I told her I still remember that night.
00:08:37.100 She was quiet for a moment and then said,
00:08:39.620 I was just happy that you called me, sweetheart.
00:08:42.100 That was all.
00:08:42.820 And even today, more than 20 years later,
00:08:46.080 those words still bring tears to my eyes.
00:08:49.280 Call her.
00:08:50.060 She'll come for you.
00:08:50.920 And she'll always be glad that you called her,
00:08:53.140 no matter the hour we no matter the hour you know why i love this story this is can you imagine like
00:08:58.940 the word mother the word mom okay when i see my kids mommy mom the other day tico was asking a
00:09:06.160 question what do you think is more appropriate you think it's mother mommy or mom i said you tell me
00:09:11.160 which one do you think and they're kind of going through it says i guess if i get older i don't
00:09:14.880 know if it's it's mommy i guess it's mom i don't want to call mother and then go to father daddy
00:09:19.720 There's something special by calling your mom for help.
00:09:23.340 There's something special for that woman to be there.
00:09:25.160 When you tell me stories about your mother, Vinny,
00:09:26.920 and by the way, just so everybody knows,
00:09:29.080 Vinny's relationship with his mom, his mom calls him every day.
00:09:32.860 They talk to each other every day.
00:09:35.100 It's all love.
00:09:36.460 It's all how much she believes, how much she encourages,
00:09:39.140 how much she just wants to serve this guy, right?
00:09:40.860 There's something special about mothers out there.
00:09:43.580 And the great state of New York is thinking about us not being able to use
00:09:47.900 the most magical word in the world, which is what?
00:09:52.140 Mother.
00:09:52.980 And the second most magical word in the world, which is what?
00:09:56.560 Father.
00:09:57.660 Can't say it, Vinny.
00:09:58.900 Moving forward, you call your mom today?
00:10:01.300 Gestating.
00:10:02.480 You call your pops.
00:10:05.180 Rob, you call your pops.
00:10:07.120 How you doing, Mr. Non-Gestating?
00:10:09.860 I'm sorry, what?
00:10:10.800 By the way, I'm going to call my dad today when I call him.
00:10:12.700 I'm going to be like, hey, how are you doing as a non-gestating person? 0.61
00:10:16.060 My dad's going to be like, who the hell?
00:10:17.260 What do you think about this story, Vinny? 0.95
00:10:21.880 The madness.
00:10:23.400 We're talking about New York.
00:10:25.480 Nothing that comes out of this place surprised me, Pat.
00:10:28.340 And again, they're constantly trying to remove the family, the bond, the oneness.
00:10:33.900 And it's like with everything that's happening in New York,
00:10:36.500 with the taxes, the garbage in the street, everything.
00:10:40.020 The people coming out of the sewers, this is what your tax dollars is going to.
00:10:44.540 This is in court, right, Tom?
00:10:46.020 they're they're they're fighting this in court lawyers your tax dollars new yorkers are going
00:10:51.700 for this and i absolutely love that story pat and it's my mom i call her every single day if i'm not
00:10:56.220 calling her she's calling me you're not i'll be damned if you're going to take away that thing
00:11:00.280 from us and new yorkers i mean how much more do you have to freaking put up with to understand
00:11:05.560 that they don't care these people are just trying to change what the number one thing for them i
00:11:09.580 think is getting rid of the nuclear family that's it that's it get rid of it and this is just one 0.80
00:11:13.880 more step pat chopping that down just stating whatever it's like give me a freaking break
00:11:17.980 adam it's a joke well vinnie uh i gotta thank vinnie for helping me to remind me to call my
00:11:24.480 mother the the relationship that vinnie has with his mother is like no other um and it's making me
00:11:29.720 appreciate my mother even more i don't know if you could show this picture this is the double
00:11:33.580 date i went on oh wow about a month ago great great dinner vinnie brought his mom yeah i brought
00:11:40.100 my mom yeah and at the end of the dinner we switched mom and i love you mom so and i love
00:11:46.040 you uh sweet lana but uh look one of the things they say about the the republican party in our
00:11:51.780 mag is they say you know they kind of lost their way but my response to the democratic party is
00:11:57.200 well you guys have lost your minds and in politics they you know especially when trump won in 2024
00:12:02.740 we said at the beginning of the election listen the least crazy party is going to win and then
00:12:09.860 what happened with the help of our friend charlie kirk trump released that ad kamala is for they
00:12:15.700 them and trump is for you and what happened that ad worked i think they spent on millions millions
00:12:22.460 of dollars on that it was incredible i remember it but here's what's going to happen all these
00:12:28.080 terms that are used to feel inclusive like i remember the first time someone guys like you're
00:12:33.020 you're a cis male right i said what cis male i said i don't even know what this means they go
00:12:38.980 What's your pronoun that you like to be described by?
00:12:43.200 What's your identity?
00:12:44.840 I'm like, I have no clue what you're talking about.
00:12:46.020 Cis male means like you have a sister?
00:12:47.860 No.
00:12:48.120 No. 1.00
00:12:48.440 It means that you're a naturally born male with a penis. 0.99
00:12:50.900 I think if somebody says cis male like you have a sister, I would be like, you know what? 0.99
00:12:54.680 That's cool. 0.99
00:12:55.140 I said, you just offended me, sir. 1.00
00:12:56.420 But cis is C-I-S. 1.00
00:12:57.080 C-I-S. 1.00
00:12:57.860 I said, you just offended me.
00:12:59.120 But then I started realizing these terms.
00:13:01.440 Do you remember when Josh Hawley, I think, got in an argument?
00:13:04.100 He said, did you say birthing person?
00:13:06.640 What's a birthing person?
00:13:07.640 what's a menstruating person who are pregnant people i mean do you just mean women yeah no no
00:13:14.660 there's some some women don't breastfeed they chest feed i'm like that's a dude like what are
00:13:20.100 we doing right here or instead of men or cis men they say people who have sperm so all these 0.99
00:13:26.860 stupid ass terms you're like what is happening here and the reality is this is the pinpoint thing 0.99
00:13:33.420 that makes people say maybe there's things i agree with the democratic party on but they've 1.00
00:13:39.680 completely gone insane on this and then here's my final point just because trump won in 2024
00:13:44.920 this is not going away this is going to reverberate and be back in 2028 this woke trans agenda
00:13:53.040 birthing person mentoring person if they don't get rid of it this will ruin their party and you 0.68
00:13:58.460 know what good room their party mean democratic democratic party by the way did you see the the
00:14:04.140 harry enton article a video that came out about the democratic party on how people feel
00:14:08.020 the democratic party it's lower than ever it's the lowest ever i don't know if you have that
00:14:13.400 congressional democrats congressional democrat to be specific thank you tom congressional democrats
00:14:17.880 uh harry enton came up with this chart and he showed it i don't know if that's the one or not
00:14:22.580 yeah so watch this go ahead rob house democrats in fact lose their primary in 2026
00:14:28.080 Look at this, 68%, 68%.
00:14:30.780 I look back at every single cycle that I could find
00:14:34.840 that was not a post-census redistricting cycle,
00:14:37.820 and the highest I could find in terms of Democrats losing,
00:14:40.860 get this, was only three.
00:14:42.740 So this would actually beat it. 0.88
00:14:44.720 Democratic angst against the establishment
00:14:46.560 and an all-time high, I think in large part driven
00:14:49.200 by the fact that Joe Biden is so unpopular
00:14:51.520 and therefore you have just this great distrust
00:14:53.560 of the Dem establishment.

00:15:29.340 My hair is going to be messed up, is the new Faith Over Fear, black and gold.
00:15:33.000 We have our shield here.
00:15:34.300 And I'm talking about gold stitching, like not real gold.

00:15:49.580 And an older, late 80 years old, her name was Amy.
00:15:52.640 She grabs me. 0.78
00:15:53.160 She's like, I want that hat.
00:15:54.620 And I felt so bad because I couldn't give it.
00:15:56.300 I couldn't.
00:15:56.720 I'm like, I got a pitch for the podcast.
00:15:59.140 And Pat, she went on the story for 20 minutes.
00:16:01.900 Ask him.
00:16:02.300 He's my witness.
00:16:03.140 About cancer and beating it and having faith in her.
00:16:06.420 She was so calm, Tom, saying that.
00:16:08.440 She's like, even if I didn't, I still have faith that God would take care of me.
00:16:11.660 It was an emotional.
00:16:12.500 I forgot that we're even eating breakfast.
00:16:14.940 But this, I'm telling you, besides just a hat, it's a conversation starter.
00:16:18.940 It's letting people know.
00:16:19.720 I can't tell you how many times in that same diner, Pat, I'm sitting there at the counter.
00:16:23.440 And there's a congregation.

00:16:26.100 So this hat is out right now.
