Bye, Bye Kathy Hochul! Republican Blakeman SURGES — New York Gov Race Turns RED HOT | Trish Regan
55m 16s
The host analyzes New York’s gubernatorial race, arguing that a recent poll showing Kathy Hochul leading Bruce Blakeman by 10 points is actually bad news for her, since Blakeman is relatively unknown. The host aligns with the New York Post’s interpretation that this is a close race, especially with three months to go, and criticizes Hochul’s stance on sanctuary policies and affordability, noting rising rents despite Democratic claims. Blakeman is praised for pledging to end sanctuary status on day one, which the host believes resonates with upstate voters. The host also attacks Hochul, Mayor Adams, and AG James for threatening ICE agents over new electric shock gloves, asserting federal jurisdiction trumps state objections. Tom Homan is quoted debunking claims about migrant children, citing over 14,000 denied detainers involving criminals. The host then pivots to broader critiques of the left, including AOC’s attempts to distance herself from “woke” ideology and Kamala Harris’s proposals to abolish the Electoral College, calling them extreme. The segment ends with market commentary, suggesting Iran’s threats are overblown given oil price drops and record S&P highs, and promotes sponsor products before closing. Overall, the host frames New York as ripe for a Republican shift, driven by crime, immigration, and fiscal concerns.
Hey, how are you? Boy, I'll tell you, I'm pretty good. I'm doing better than Kathy is right now. And it's funny because you know, different people play this a little bit differently when I was looking at the readouts of these and I had talked a little bit about this with you just yesterday. But this story is gaining steam because it's all how you look at it, right? I mean, some folks over in the liberal media are trying to say, whoa, whoa, whoa, she's gonna win. You know, she's 10 points ahead. And I'm looking at this going, whoa, Kathy, this is not a good showing. In other words, he is chomping at the bit and nobody even knows his name. Yet, all right, and he's within 10 points again. So I think that that's really indicative of a whole lot of things. And when you see what they just did last night and today to try and combat this and by day, I mean, you get all the forces out. Yeah, you got Mamdami, you got Kathy Hocal, you got Latisha, baby. Yeah, she's making a run for it too because they get a coalesce around their girl. Kathy Hocal, Kathy Hocal, maybe getting voted out in New York, New York State. And it may be because of her affiliation with New York City. So this poll just coming in, and again, I think it's fascinating how different people are interpreting this. I'm with the New York Post on this one. Take a look at this. Bruce Blakeman could unseat Hocal and turn New York red. Stunning poll reveals. I mean, this is pretty darn stunning. And thank you to all of us joining us right now. Don't forget to subscribe, make a comment. I do see all of them. If you look at what some of the media was suggesting, things are looking all like roses for Little Kathy here. Let me go to what we saw over in Politico. They're saying, hey, this is terrific, right? She's got a 10 point lead over Blakeman in the first poll of likely voters. I don't see it that way. I really don't. I see it much more like the New York Post is seeing it because if you're only within 10 points with a guy that nobody has heard of, I mean, really no, then that's a pretty close race. And we've got three months to go. And I don't think she's doing herself any favors, especially vis-a-vis these sanctuary city concerns, which are a big deal in New York state. If you look at the Seattle poll right through right here, which I was reading today, they play it fairly straight. But some of the points that they're making is that on things like character, okay? Character voters say Hocal is better on increasing and affordable housing by 16 points. I'm not so sure about that, guys. Did you see the rents in New York City? You know, after Comrade Mam Dami said he was going to have the rent freeze, and what do you know? We're looking at the highest rents. I mean, they went up by like 10% just in the last year. Highest rents ever. So I would not trust the Democrats. Just some good wholesome advice from media. Do not trust the Democrats when it comes to affordability because nothing's going to be affordable at all. But they, for some reason, are giving her higher points there of the four character traits. Blakeman's net score beats Hocal's net score. They say he's tough. They say he's in touch with average New Yorkers. He's honest and he gets things done. Wow, wow, whoopie, okay. So that's looking pretty good. Oh, by the way, Latisha James is in there. This is too bad on Latisha. I actually thought that, you know, there might be some wiggle room there because I think people have gotten pretty fed up with Latisha James and her political circus that she runs. And there's news today that she's out there giving millions of millions of millions of dollars, 54 million dollars to be exact to these rather liberal but also sort of in bed with criminals groups, right? Like all these legal groups that are on the sides of criminals. I mean, kind of awkward for the AG to suddenly be on the side of criminals. But James is at 54% versus Comte Reddy, who's at 36%. Now, part of Comte Reddy's disastrous poll number is the fact that nobody really knows who she is at all. So she's got to hope and pray that, you know, really some of this bad stuff comes back to haunt Latisha James because I don't think she's done enough in terms of getting her name out there in terms of name recognition. But Blakeman also, he's trying. He's trying and he's been on Fox a few times. I'm going to show you some of his appearances. And this might be the guy that takes it. This might be the guy that actually turns New York rep the first time in 20 years. Wouldn't that be great to see? Really, really great to see. Now, I think part of this reason, when you think about, why is it that New York, after 20 years of having democratic governors, of having pretty consistently very liberal mayors in the city of New York? And you know, the city of New York has a big, big, not-- it's not the whole game, but a very, very important part of what goes on in New York state politics. Why is it that they would be willing to shift right now? Why? I think it's because they're worried about the direction the whole country is heading in. I mean, not in New York City, but you go out to other parts of New York state. And you've heard me say this before. I'm very familiar with sort of upstate in the western part of the state. My husband is from there. His family is still there. We still go back. There are a lot. And it's a very different climate than you get saying in New York City. It's like two different locations altogether. And I think that the rest of the state feels very strongly that things have gotten a little too out of control. And things are just spiraling in New York City. And they're not really in on this whole sanctuary state thing. They don't really buy it. And yet this is what Cathy Hocal is trying to shove down their throats non-stop here she is last night. We've got this Cathy Hocal. The statue of Liberty stands tall in our harbor. For generations, she's had a simple message. Bring me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to be free. And despite the utter lack of humanity and compassion coming out of Washington, that message still means something here in New York. And it means that in this state, we treat all people with dignity and decency regardless of how they got here. OK, OK, OK, hey, hey, hey, hey. So you know what, listen, it's not a bad line, right? And look at-- I don't know what this news network is. It's running her some local news network. And they're like, oh, ma'am, dummy Hocal and James take stand against ICE overreach in New York City. So tell us how you really feel. You're a news organization, and you're calling it overreach. They're calling it overreach. You should have put that one in quotations. But now the news organization is calling it an overreach. It's not an overreach. You know why it's not an overreach? Because guess who's in charge of the border? Thank you very much. It would happen to be the federal government. And so if you've got a bunch of criminals running around in New York City or New York State, guess who's in charge to making sure that they're supposed to be out-- that, again, would be the federal government. That would be ICE, immigration, customs, and enforcement. OK, that's who it would be. And I'm sorry, that's just the way it is. Unless you want to rewrite the law. Congress has charged the federal government. That's the way it has to be, right? Because don't forget everybody down in Texas. Remember that when you had everybody down in Texas getting all upset because Biden was taken down the wall that the governor had put up. And I was like, that's terrible, right? Like not the governor, actually it was the Trump wall. And then the governor still wanted it up in Texas. But the reality is, guess who had jurisdiction over the border? Not actually Texas. But the federal government. That would have been Joe Biden. So Joe Biden, I mean, granted he's out of there. Couldn't happen fast enough. But he had the right to take the border partition down. I mean, I don't think it was the right thing. And we got rid of him, right? And this entire election was actually decided on the immigration issue in sanctuary states. And sanctuary country that we had somehow become. But you know, Kathy Hocal is trying to pull on everybody's heartstrings. Oh my gosh, I feel so bad. I showed you yesterday she was going on and on about the kids. And what about the kids that actually wind up? I'm sorry, murdered. Because you have illegal criminals doing bad, bad things. For some reason, they don't matter. Oh, and this is good, guys. She's really triggered. I mean, Kathy Hocal, Latisha, James, and the crumman, Dami, they are triggered because ISIS looking at these new devices. They're purchasing $20 million worth of electric shock gloves. I shouldn't laugh. I mean, at least it's not guns, right? I mean, it just tastes people. They're going to grab you. And then you get a little bit of a sensation if you're one of the bad guys. But they're trying to come up with workarounds because they don't want to actually have to be shooting at people. And this is one of the things that might actually work for them. But oh, this is like set her off and Latisha, baby off, and ma'am, Dami, off like they can't sleep at night because of the thought of these electric shock gloves that ISIS getting. So Hocal and Latisha, James, now are warning ICE agents that they are going to face legal consequences if they start wearing these gloves and shocking people with these gloves. Again, I don't think that they actually have a leg to stand on there because I would say legally, the responsibility, once again, hate to be the buzzkill here. But once again, the jurisdiction goes to the federal government and the federal government only. So they are in charge of this border. And that's that. So Kathy Hocal, Latisha, James, saying on Wednesday, yesterday afternoon that they had recently enacted state protections that could expose ICE officers to legal consequences if the devices are used in New York. This is so much of what they want to do, right? They're going to like take down all that. This is such a threatening thing. They're like, okay, we're going to go after you. You're working for the federal government. Federal government tells you to do something. And then you're going to have Latisha and you're going to have Kathy, maybe, out there arresting the ICE officers. That's not how it works, guys. Okay, it's just not because then you've got total bedlam. You don't really have a country at that point. You've got some kind of disastrous mess if the government puts the federal government in charge of making sure that our borders are secure and our federal government decides that they have to go after certain people.
and get them out of the country, I'm not really sure how you can jump in as a state and say, "We're going to take over." I mean, I see Warblade 187 making the point that, "Hocal," well, there's a little adjective before her. "Hocal." Doesn't have jurisdiction, right? Over these federal officers, no legal authority in your right. Over these federal agents, the federal agents are operating on their own, you know, sort of in their own zone, but they are so upset about this, and so they are trying to do whatever they can to stop it, but I don't think that they're going to have a leg to stand on, and I think it's just a lot of noise, and it's noise designed to pull on those heartstrings and to try and get, you know, all the voters they possibly can to say, "We got to make sure that we don't have Blakeman in there because Blakeman is going to get rid of this sanctuary status on day one." And so this thing, oh, by the way, they're called glove for short, conclever, right? New devices, short for generated low output, voltage, and midter. They're designed to deliver an electrical charge through contact with a person. Okay, I read, I'm sorry, but like, you know, you get into a tussle with ice and you're taking your life in your hands at least, you know, this is just an electric shock, as opposed to some other things. Anyway, she says, "You cannot trample on someone's constitutional rights, and you cannot cause them undue harm. You will be held accountable." Cathy Hoekle, to the rescue, flipping out over the electric gloves and, "Oh my gosh, we didn't even get to ma'am, dummy, ma'am, dummy's having a full-on meltdown. I mean, just a cry fast watch." Oh, look, it's just kind of funny because she was speaking, but you know, he has to horn in on the action, ever the politician that he is. She seems a little kind of discombobulated as well. Do you see her like looking around, they're applauding for her, and he's trying to muster his way into the shot? Here we go. Let's look again. Sorry, if I can just add one more thing, because I question you know, New Yorkers are horrified by the actions of ice. These are actions that are ripping apart the very fabric of communities across the city and the city. They're very fabric. There are neighborhoods today where you can feel the absence of those who do not feel as if they can leave their homes any longer. And now if New Yorkers want a leader, like the governor that we have, who can look at that cruelty and name it for what it is, then they know that the choice is governor Hoekle. If they want a leader who looks at the cruelty of ice and sees a playbook of what to deliver at an even greater extent in New York State, then that's Bruce Blackman. And I know what choice I would make, and I know that New Yorkers feel the same. And we are all standing here because we believe in the values and ideals that make us so proud to be New Yorkers. And then there are those who are willing to traffic and fear mongering, even if it means trampling upon those very ideals. And we will not stand for that. Just laughing because Henry writes golf course clap. Yeah, you're right. It was like a little tiny crowd that it was totally it was like we were watching golf, right? That was absolutely nailed it. You nailed it. So yeah, there's not a lot of enthusiasm there, but they are like just trying to pull on your heartstrings. Oh my gosh, you know, they're going to do all these terrible things. They're going to do these terrible people. They want to take away the rights of all these people. Let me just say, okay, I told you I was out the coast of Spain. I was just driving by I didn't go in to say Uta, but I've spent a lot of time actually talking to a lot of Spanish people. I was actually in Morocco, briefly the other day where Morocco has all these people that they're taking into say Uta. And this is this is what you got going on. Okay, when you just don't have a good border, when you've got a maim dame Allah Pedrito Sanchez running the show in Spain and you're allowing this kind of thing to happen. See that? And there's Shad Nalu Akbar, of course. Okay, so they have taken over the streets. It's still going on as we speak. Still going on. They have thousands and thousands and thousands of these migrants that people are crying and older women, they're afraid to go out of their homes. Okay, they're afraid to go out of their homes. And now he's just worried about all these people that came here to the country illegally. They can't leave their homes. Oh, I have more to say on that. But first quick shout out to one of our great sponsors here on the church reading show. Have you guys heard of this company? I think this is so cool. I just found out about them kind of recently actually. It's called superpower. And they've got all this sort of very actionable information that you can use to take better charge of your health. It's basically one simple lab draw. And after you have that lab draw and they can come to your house and do it, they can make super easy. You get over 100 biomarkers that are discovered that are very specific to you. So I mean, if you think about going and having a physical exam, you get 10 to 15 checks on your biomarkers for comparison. But in this, you're going to get over 100. So it's just amazing. 17 core systems, including heart metabolism, thyroid, inflammation, really important. I just heard a big article actually in the New York Times on inflammation today. And even environmental toxins. So great stuff. You get to know your body in a way that you just simply can't. I mean, technology is amazing, right? All this technology is giving us all these new levels of insight into all these little things. You got brain fog. Oh, there may be a reason for that. There may be a biomarker for that. And this is what it's going to help explain to you. So it actually lets you not just know about these different things, but it gives you advice that they have supplemental recommendations that it gives you prescription suggestions that can be directly about through superpower. So you don't have to go somewhere else. It can give you some information. Oh, and your biological age, okay? Ah, that's, do I want to know that? Age is just a number, but the biological age is kind of important to know. So it's really, really neat. It is high-tech science. It's, you know, in the future, we're going to laugh about all the crazy stuff we had to do way back when when we now are able to kind of just get it all to us delivered with such specificity, right? 100 plus biomarkers that are just specific to you. It's H-S-A-F-S-A eligible. So you may be able to use some of those pre-tax dollars and get that deeper, more personalized health data that you've probably always wanted. So take a look at this. Go to superpower.com. Use my name. Use code Trish. You get 20 bucks off. You're $199 super power membership. And after you sign up, if you could just do me the favor, saying that you heard about superpower wear on your friend Trish Regan's show, okay? So Trish Regan, it just helps to support this show a little bit. But go check it out. Take care of yourself. Take care of your health. It's really just a terrific membership that you can, I mean, I love it because I can't get enough data on things like that. I'm not a hyperchondriac. I promise. I'm really not, I'm definitely not, but I'm like, you know what? If there's information out there that I can know about myself, I want it. And so this company is awesome. Go check it out. Again, and use my name for that discount. Mam Dommie is in a state of panic, though, because he's gets, you know, basically ice that he can't control ice in his city. They get the gloves and everything now too. And it's really got him melting down. And I just want to lay this out one more time. The consequences of the federal policy are life threatening. I met a Haitian New Yorker on the subway platform in Bedstuy who burst into tears telling me about the anxiety that she was living with. This was right before she facetimed her husband was a middle school principal. So I could meet the whole family. We, I'm sure many of us on this stage and in this audience, I've seen the video of a Haitian man collapsing to the floor when he reckons with the fact that he has to leave this country to go back to IT. These are horrific decisions that are being made at the federal level. And I'm proud to stand alongside a governor who is willing to put millions of dollars into the investment in the values that make us proud to be New Yorkers. And enter Bruce Blakeman. He's going to shut it all down. He's going to shut it all down fast. You know, no more sanctuary state in New York from day one. On day one as governor, I will sign an executive order that we are no longer a sanctuary state. Not only does it make it easier for criminals to operate in our state when you're a sanctuary state, but also Kathy Hoke will spend over $8 billion of our taxpayer money on people who all they have to do is arrive from New York. They're not New Yorkers. They're not Americans. They get free food, free housing, free transportation, and the free cell phone. Their benefits are about $81,000 per person and New York taxpayers are paying for this. And this is the one issue that cuts across all lines, whether a Democrat, independent, or a Republican. It really pisses people off that their hard earned dollars are going for people who haven't earned a thing. They just arrive in New York and they get more benefits than New Yorkers. That will end on day one when I become governor. Yep. Okay. So New York could be in for some changes. And again, when you look and you consider these poll numbers and you see how quickly he's climbing, vis-a-vis her, it looks like a lot of New Yorkers want these changes. Meanwhile, meanwhile, when they get out there with their sub-stories, this, that, and the other, Tom Homan wants you to know it's a whole bunch of baloney. None of it is true. They're lying through their teeth. Here he is. What they did today is the blatant disgusting lie. And I'm tired of it. Now, they want to spend millions of dollars in New York's taxpayers' money on defending migrant children because they said we abandon them. No, we didn't ban them. We just changed.
contracts. We have a contract in place right now that defends the children at a better rate than was being done in the past. There has been one child at a hearing that has been represented by a lawyer under this new contract. So let's say we're abandoning these children. The only people that abandon children are you because you say you care about the safety of the children, you care about the safety of the community. Well, since I've been boarders are, I wrote these numbers now. Since I've been boarders are in New York state has denied 14,000 detainers over 14,000 detainers. Who are they? 6,800 illegal aliens with assault convictions, 800 convictions for child crimes. Don't tell me you're trying to protect children. You're releasing predators to the street every day across that state. You got 770 convictions for rape or other sex crimes. I'm sick of the lying. I'm sick of the distortion of the facts. President Trump's done more to make New York City in New York State safer than they have. You know, and Tom is right. I mean, like look, look down at the numbers, look into that and what you're going to find is that President Trump and eyes are making New York City safer. I mean, the same thing happened in Washington DC. They made it safer why by just putting all those agents out on the streets. I mean, you need the law in order when you say defund the police and you don't give police the ability to even do their jobs. Yes, you're going to have more crime. And that's what you've seen in New York City. It's because it's a terrifying place, like a horrible place. And it's sad, right? Because I actually lived there for a whole lot of years. And I think about all the success that Rudy Giuliani had in New York City and followed by my old boss, Mayor Bloomberg, right? When I worked at Bloomberg television and boy, he couldn't stand could not say he can't stand Trump, but he really couldn't stand to Blasio and to Blasio came in to Blasio would actually not even snowplow right outside are building their Bloomberg. And Mike always saw that as a very deliberate thing to kind of like me and dummy was giving him the middle finger. But you know, to Blasio couldn't actually snowplow anything. Maybe it wasn't even personal. He just couldn't do anything couldn't get it job done. The rumor was he had a bit of a smoking habit going on on the side and didn't show up to work until like 11 or 12 noon. Anyway, I digress. We have gone from bad to worse because if you thought the Blasio was bad, well, now we go, come and dummy. So here we are looking at a real disaster. You got a woke mayor who I actually question in terms of who his allegiance really is to and I don't think it's to New York and I don't think it's to America. I really, I mean, you've heard me say this before, but it's being crystallized more and more and part of it's being crystallized because of his wife. Okay, the wife who's apparently a private person was trying to hit up the NYPD because she wanted security in Syria and Lebanon. Don't forget, this is the guy who was trying to set up a meeting with Iran. Remember that and Marco Rubio busted him and he didn't fire the staffer. He was just like, oops, he's just a little mistake. Oops, he's busy. He was trying to set up a meeting with Iran where we're at war with Iran. And his wife is trying to go over to Syria and Lebanon. And these are like places that are no go zones, state departments like don't even think about it. And yet she wants to track herself all the way over there, ask yourself why Blakeman's asking himself why and he's asking the voters why let's go to him here. But you have to ask yourself, why is she going to two places that are filled with terrorists and putting our police officers in harm's way? What's the purpose of the visit? I guess she is comfortable with terrorists because that's why there's a do not travel from the state department because these places are dangerous, but maybe not to her. No, why not to her? Does she have friends in high places? I mean, this was pretty humiliating the whole thing from right because he was initially like, oh, my wife's going to Syria and Lebanon, you know, get a little summer break coming up. Just exactly where you want to head. Although I should talk because I was just in Morocco. Anyway, the point being, it's not exactly where you think someone would choose to go for their little vacation, especially when the state department is like, no, and yet Mrs. Mamdami was all about it. She thinks she's fine to go over there. And I think Blakeman's making a real point here, why does she need to go there? Why does she want to go there? And what is her mission when she's going there? And why is she trying to get state support? I mean, I've told you this over and over again. And when I added all up, right, and I look at the Democrat Socialist of America, which is basically bought and paid for by that Neville Singhman, who's a total traitor who now lives in China, can't even come back into the states because they're going to like, you know, basically hall is, you know, what right before Congress. So the DSA, which is supporting all these woke insane candidates that are trying to bring communism to America. When you look at what's really going down, you have to ask yourself a lot of questions. Here's Tim Birchett, he represented from Tennessee. He appeared on Benny's show. I think this was this morning, Benny Johnson. And he was talking about it. And I liked what he said. He was making the point that, you know, maybe Soros, I think it's bigger than Soros. I think it's actually China. I think it's a lot of foreign money. And I have a lot of real concerns right now that they have infiltrated our culture and they have infiltrated our political system. Let's go to the representative from Tennessee. You've got some of these billionaires, whether it's Soros or some other liberal that hates America, but we'll run it into the ground and profit from it. I put a lot of money into these things. And they dropped these candidates in all over the country, all over the country. And guess what? When they ran Omar and an AOC on their scale, they hit gold and a few of the others of the squad. And they were back, they were backed by somebody and they had somebody in there. They all had this little group together. And they were funded. And then we better wake up. We are not paying attention to these local races because that is the breeding ground for this thing. And you know, all they do is turn it against the big boys. You know, they live in this bad house, you know, they're billionaires. But you know what? Freakin Elon Musk. How many people does he employ? How many people does he turn into millionaires? And they run this guy down. They running down. It's not like it puts his dad in money in a in a pillowcase. That guy rolls the dice every dad gum day. They ought to be celebrating a guy like that. He comes here from South Africa or wherever he came from and and lives broke. His mama was a model. And he's broke. He's on allegedly on the spectrum of autism. And he's the richest guy in the dad gum world. And the reason he called his end dad gum America is what it is. And and we ought to be celebrating stuff like that. No, well, obviously, we ought to be, but no, they're not, they're not. And the reason they're not is because they are jealous. They think America's bad. It has too much wealth. We should just give it all away. America's controlling everything. You get this lady out there who was like applauding what happened on October 7th. It's sick stuff. And they don't think Elon Musk deserves to have made and they don't want industry. They don't want creativity. They don't want growth. They don't want productivity. They don't want anything. They just want everybody to be kept down. Well, they all live high off the hog. She gets her NYPD escort to Syria and Lebanon to do God knows what. And I'm tired of it. I'm sick of it. You don't like the country. Go back to Syria. Okay, please. We don't need you here. You're not helping us. Mam, dummy. Go back to Uganda. You're so concerned about reforming New York. The financial capital of the world. I don't think you need your help. I don't think you need your reform. I think Uganda could use you right about now. I don't think you actually could have come to this country if you'd actually told them the truth about who you were and who your alliances were too. You know that little form that you had to fill out? I don't think you were truthful because if you had admitted that you had all that rap lyric in your rap songs, whatever you were, you know, he said like a thousand different identities. Again, leading me to believe that he's not what you think he is and he's working for the bad guys. Anyways, I don't think a thousand different identities. One of them was a some kind of rap singer and he was praising Hamas in those lyrics. And then you've got more from him, you know, is the Disney. I should do that. Clip the other day. His crazy wacky Ugandan accent, which sounds nothing like his very polished, woke, snobby, snooty, nonsense accent that he now has. He is a bad dude with bad intentions. Who wants to ruin this country? Who wants to ruin the financial center capital of the world so he can take it down and do what? Go back and party in Uganda? Bad guy. Bad guy. Tim Burch, it knows it. I know it. A lot of people know it. I think you know it too. The president knows it. And now he is threatening federal action to block Mamdami's pietta terror tax. Look, just like Burch had said, they don't want anybody to have anything. They want to take it away from everyone. And as Burch had also said, it's happening at the local level. Like this is not just in big bright, you know, light city, New York. It is happening all over the world. Well, all over the country, all over the world too. I mean, look at what's going on in Spain with. Pedrito Sanchez, allowing for 60,000 migrants to storm into save to Spain in 24 hours, a town of 80,000. So yeah, it is happening all over the world. You look at what's going on in Europe every single time I do a search on Europe on X, all I get are pictures of these
migrants, all I get or all the boats that are pulling into shores, Europe has had it. They, someone brought this on, someone wanted this, someone wanted to take down the West. Just like they want to take down New York, just like they want to take down the United States of America. And here Kathy Hocal is a willing accomplice just because what does it mean for her more power, power, power greedy lady that she is, I believe that in the state of New York, if you have a $5 million second home that you should be able to afford to pay for police and fire and trash removal and storing move in the wintertime, it's about paying your fair share. Donald Trump ought to focus on all the paintings causing New Yorkers and knock it off and don't worry about us. Kathy, I think he actually does need to worry about you. Because I actually think that this is, to my point earlier, something that's going on all over the country, whether we look at the woman out in Colorado who says we just need to get more people from the global South elected in America to stop America from being the imperialist power that it is. What? Okay. If you care so much about Ethiopia lady, go back to Ethiopia, Ilhan Omar, oh don't get me started. Maybe here all night, Ilhan Omar and her Somalia kick. All she cares about is Somalia. So guess what? Go back to Somalia. Well, I mean, maybe she's financially incentivized to care about Somalia. Her sister, oh, go back and watch the top of yesterday's show if you want to know more about that. The sister who allegedly has some address that she's incorporated in Minnesota that happens to also be the address of a whole bunch of fraudsters in the feeding our future scam is also working primarily in Somalia yet has an address in Nairobi. Oh, she was really bummed out when USAID went by bike, right? I mean, there's a method to the madness here. They want to all help their home countries. So go help Uganda, ma'am, Tommy. Lady from Colorado, go help Ethiopia and keep things Egypt, but that's actually El Said. I mean, all of these people that want to help their countries go help them. Be my guest. Get out of ours. Really and truly because you're not going to do us any. We are doing great. We are the world's financial capital, okay? In New York City. I may soon be taken over by Dallas or Miami, though, because they got better tax plans and better governments. You know, I mean, Tommy, we're doing pretty well. We are the envy of the world. Everyone wishes they could be us. We have more money than anyone else in the world. And yet they want to take that away. And it all started with some of them like AOC that got handpicked. I remember I showed you some of the video from the DSA. AOC was just plucked out of a crowd 10,000 people were auditioning for that gig and they picked her. Her brother sent in a nice 8 by 10 glossy black and white photo and AOC was off to the races. She kicked the bartending job behind and the rest is history. She was with her college boyfriend, too, up until a couple of weeks ago and didn't work out so well. A little ginger that he was, look very Irish to me, anyway, that apparently is all over and done with. And she's freezing her eggs because, you know, she wants to be the president. Apparently she can't have kids and be the president, too, she thinks. I don't know. But here's what's important to know. AOC is trying desperately, desperately to distance herself from the commie nut jobs that got her to the dance in the first place. Whether the tax, the rich, dress and all of that, that was all contrived. That was all them. That was all DSA. Brought and paid for, I should say, to you by China, Neville Shingman, that whole group. So they handpicked AOC. They were successful with her campaign. They're getting to be more successful with a lot of other campaigns. And now all of a sudden, the rest of the country is waking up and saying, "These people are really, really, really nutty." And we don't want what they're selling. I mean, you may get some of the base enthused about it, but the rest of the Democrat party is like, "No, thank you, ma'am." I mean, I showed you a union leader from New York City the other day, who's like, "We don't want any part of that." I mean, so you're going to see a complete realignment. And basically everybody's going to go, "Whoo, okay, right over to MAGA." And then AOC knows that. So AOC is trying to represent something different. So this is why she went on ABC last weekend and she said, "Oh, you know, woke one. Woke one was crazy." Well, it's not that easy. You may be crazy. I had argued that woke two is even crazier, but let me just say you're not going to get away with trying to distance yourself that easily, Miss AOC, and then something that everybody's picking up on, including the governor of Florida, including the very articulate Stephen Miller. Let's listen to him first. Of the so-called woke ideology that the left launched in, really in 2020, in earnest throughout these last number of years, although, of course, it's ideological roots of Marxism and anti-Americanism and communism and third worldism, all, of course, significantly predate that. What was one of its core tenets? The dismantlement, destruction, and defunding of our police departments. That policy objective, which remains in force in every blue city today, in Chicago, in Los Angeles, and New York, an unrelenting war against police. The result, the wages of that policy were a historic increase in murders until President Trump came along. A historic increase in shootings, dead bodies, drug overdoses, gangs rung a muck, citizens living in fear, public spaces seated to violent, thuggish, armed robbers. That was the policy. We're all going to have a good laugh about that. Sorry, your husband was murdered. Sorry, your mom was killed. Sorry, your loved ones are six out of the ground now. We're going to have a good laugh about that. It's sickening. It's disgusting. And the thing is, it never stopped. Like here in Washington, D.C., you just did a segment on the one-year anniversary of President Trump's D.C. safe initiative, where he achieved the largest ever reduction of violent crime, not only the history of this city, but the history of any city. Nowhere has violent crime fallen so steeply, so quickly, so totally. He had to fight Democrats' tooth and nail to reduce murders in this city. He had to fight and is still fighting a city council that at every turn has sided with violent career criminals over police officers. A city council and Democrat allies in Congress that believe that a 16-year-old or a 7-year-old commits a shooting with a gun, firing, spraying bullets on an open street that they shouldn't even face adult criminal punishment. Wow. I told you he was good, right? Very, very compelling guy when he speaks, but he's right. In other words, we have lost sight of what matters to us, and that's protecting this country, and having rules, and having laws, and having borders, okay, and woke one was crazy, and they thought you could defund the police, but woke two is just as crazy. Woke two is all about, oh, well, let's get rid of the constitution. Let's just throw it out. I mean, one of the things that makes it so wonderful, right, is the fact that we've been around as long as we have 250 years, and we still have that constitution. And there are people now, like Kamala Harris, I have some sound from her, I think, Kamala Harris saying today that she would like to get rid of the electoral college. She wants to get rid of the election, I mean, this is nuts, absolutely nuts, she's furious that Donald Trump wants to ask for a how dare he ask for ID when you go to vote. I'm just pulling the sound because you should hear it. I hadn't intended to play it, but listening to Miller there, and knowing how crazy this is all gotten, I mean, you have people that are running for office that want to pack the court. All right, that's exactly what Chavez did when he was first elected. He packed the court with all his buddies, so they want to pack the court and what else do they want to do? They want to basically rip up the constitution. I mean, the DSA people want to get rid of the Senate, because the Senate is somehow an issue. I mean, the president was joking the other day, he's like, yeah, there are days when I want to get rid of the Senate too, but, you know, I'm not going to get rid of the Senate. But the fact that you have a woman that was nearly the president of the United States of America, well, not nearly, I mean, she was the Democrat nominee sort of kind of, and calling for this kind of stuff is really pretty bonkers, right? Let's listen. Partial change. I think we need to revisit the efficacy of the Electoral College. I think we need to expand the Supreme Court and look at reforms. You know, so much of what we are dealing with right now back to the point of just a violation of civil rights and all that your parents and mine fought for, the Supreme Court decisions by this court that was basically at this point hand selected by Donald Trump. Okay. Okay. Okay. So, you know, that's kind of how it works. Kamala. Wasn't she a lawyer or something, probably not a very good one. Oh, I could say more, but I won't. So, it's kind of how it works, the president does get to pick his justices, so that's just your bad luck. Right? That you guys just didn't get your fair share in there. I mean, in the few that you did, woo, they're doosies. Anyway.
Look, AOC wants to run, run, run as far as she can from Woke One trying to explain this away because she wants to be running against that lady that you just saw, Kamala Harris. She wants to be running probably against DeSantis, who made, you know, I don't know if DeSantis will wind up out there with his hat in the ring. I'm sure he'll throw it. I think it's going to be Marco Rubio, possibly JD Vans, but my money's probably on Marco Rubio at this stage. Again, it could change. But let's see. Here's DeSantis. AOC, full on, Woke One, you don't get to walk away that easily, lady. Well, people making the statements about abolishing prisons and abolishing the police. Oh, that was just Woke One. It was crazy. Like, really, like you're just going to say that it was just a mulligan or something like that. Like, people were actually attacking law enforcement. They wanted to defund police. You did have candidates and you still have candidates who talk about abolishing prisons. But you got swept up in that frenzy. You don't just get to say, oh, that was yesterday, oh, let's just, let's just move on. Yeah, there's Florida Governor. Oh, I should mention 76 research of Ham and Ghana over there. That's my other company. That's my, that's my day job. Anyway, 76research.com financial research company that I started with a very good friend. Wonderful portfolio manager. Go check it out. 76research.com. You can get all of those portfolios. We have eight to ten stocks in each one of them. They've all done very well. I'm very proud of this company and what we've been able to build part of the reason we put that together was in part to fight back against some of this woke nonsense. I mean, really and truly nonsense that was actually in so many ways affecting investor behavior and decisions, right? Think about 2020 and how the market was selling off 2,000 points a day and I was like, you got to be kidding me. And then you think about the follow through with the George Floyd stuff over the summer and you had people saying, well, we can't invest in this company because of this DEI and then you had ESG, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. And the next thing you know, Rob and I together said, you know, we got to help people see through this noise and this nonsense and that's how 76research was born in 76 being very deliberate not, of course, to 1776 and to freedom and to prosperity and to capitalism. So check it out when you can. But AOC is in this, you know, desired attempt to distance herself from what she was, you say, Sandy, you might want to, you might want to start there with a little grease, musical. She's never going to get away from what she was. We have an all on tape, okay? That's the difference between then and now we, we can actually go right back to those tapes and we can play them at Najim. I have seen her over and over again just really dig herself into a hole. She's not knowledgeable. She is not familiar with world affairs and she doesn't know where to come out on the whole Palestinian Israel thing because she's from New York and she's thinking, I need these people to vote for me and yet simultaneously she's got her DSA crowd there in her ear saying, no, this is the way you got to say it. So at the Munich Security Council, she made a fool of herself. The idea that this woman would be running for present is actually kind of terrifying. That tells you everything you need to know about how we have scratched the bottom of the barrel. No one wants to go into politics except the theater kids that couldn't make it in theater and couldn't make it in Hollywood. So somehow they show up in politics. That's who you get in the DSA right about now. Iran playing more games every chance it can get, I'll tell you, this administration is running out of patience with Iran right about now. And if I look at oil prices and I look at the market, you know what it's telling me? It's going to be okay. And we're going to find all kinds of other ways to deal with Iran. But there are a lot of people out there. My friend, Jack Keen, who I have a tremendous amount of respect for is saying, listen, we need to be tough. We need to be doing everything we possibly can to shut them down. Mike Papeo, agreeing to listen to him here today on Fox. Martha, I do. It's actually why I suggested earlier that I think the president is going to have to take the escalation ladder up himself before we get to that point. It can't be the case that we can let the Iran's drive that escalation just as General Keen spoke about. They're fully aware that there's an election coming up and they fully want to make President Trump lose that election. I don't think there's right. They've had no president that's taken down their military in this way. No previous president. Republican or Democrat has been prepared to do that. They want to see someone else be successful in this election. If they think it's in their own national security interest for the Iranians to get that. So I think President Trump could see all those things that General Keen and I see as well. I'm convinced that we will have to ratchet up the pressure before the Iranians choose to do so. Come this fall. Okay. So we're going to have to ratchet up the pressure. See, he said something that I talked to you a little bit about yesterday. And that's that you have in Iran that feels like it has the upper hand because they think that the Donald Trump can't stomach the political pain that will come with higher oil prices. But here's the reality. Like if it were going to be that bad, we're not in the 200s. It's not like oil is 200. And I don't want to sound like I'm blowing this off like it's no big deal. But listen, you get an S&P that's trading up six cents of a percent and Nasdaq that's up almost a whole percent today. This is not exactly a market that is scared of Iran. Okay. Crude oil done two and a half percent. How do you guys like that? All right. Two and a half percent. You know what that tells us? We don't care about Iran. In fact, right now we're sending fresh aircraft carriers to the Middle East amid this strain because lawmakers are finally coming to the realization that yeah, we're going to have to do more rather than less. There were some reports about some rather bad conditions there at the USS Abraham Lincoln after more than 250 days at sea. Basically they had been on board there 250 days. And so finally, you know, and this became political as it always does, right? And so you had Democrats that were refusing to do anything because they just didn't want to give an inch for Donald Trump. And it's one of my frustrations I keep having over and over again. They just can't see the force for the trees. And so now here's the headline coming to you in the Wall Street Journal at this moment. And you can see the USS sending that fresh aircraft carrier to the Middle East because of these concerns about soldiers having been on sailors having been on that ship for so long 250 days at sea, but anyway, so we're beefing up things, okay? And you heard maybe from Pete Hegseth, who is down at Southcom today talking and insane listen, we are not running out of ammunition. We are very much willing to do a whole lot more Trump ordering the Navy to restore old technology in some of these aircraft carriers costing billions or we're going to be spending a whole lot more money to do all these upgrades that are so necessary. And again, the proof is in the pudding when you have the S&P hitting yet again, another fresh record. Everybody's excited about this AI trade when you have stocks moving like they are, when you have oil moving down like it's moving down, it tells me that this president is not going to have to worry that much about Iran. No sorry, you know, Iran needs to start worrying about us. And there are lots of things that we can do and that we are doing and that we are planning, whether it be pipelines, right, or other affiliations, right, like creating kind of a NATO of the Middle East, maybe to just siphon off Iran, like we did with Russia, Iran, the bogeyman over there in the Middle East, I mean, you've got the uranium power plant that's going in in Saudi Arabia. You have the Saudis and the Israelis making friends and Kuwaitis making friends with the Israelis and the Saudis. I mean, lots of good things happening. And Iran is, you know, duck duck goose and a bad game of duck duck goose the last one, you know, without a chair, so to speak. So they have no friends. The entire region doesn't like them now. They've ticked us off. They've ticked everybody else off. And now they're holding out because they think that they can kind of run the clock on Donald Trump and here's the answer, they're not going to be able to do it. They just aren't.

Podcast Summary
Key Points:
The host discusses a new poll showing Kathy Hochul only 10 points ahead of Bruce Blakeman in the New York gubernatorial race, interpreting it as a sign of weakness for Hochul despite media spin.
Blakeman is portrayed as a strong challenger who would end New York’s sanctuary state status on day one, appealing to voters frustrated with crime and immigration policies.
The host criticizes Hochul, Mayor Eric Adams, and AG Letitia James for opposing ICE, particularly over new electric shock gloves, arguing they lack legal jurisdiction over federal agents.
The host claims Democrats are misleading voters on affordability, citing rising rents in NYC, and highlights Blakeman’s better character ratings on honesty and toughness.
The segment includes a commercial break for Superpower (health testing) and 76 Research, plus commentary on national issues like Iran, oil prices, and market stability.
The host accuses left-wing figures like AOC and Kamala Harris of extreme positions (e.g., abolishing the Electoral College), while defending Trump’s border policies and praising Tom Homan’s rebuttals.
Summary:
The host analyzes New York’s gubernatorial race, arguing that a recent poll showing Kathy Hochul leading Bruce Blakeman by 10 points is actually bad news for her, since Blakeman is relatively unknown. The host aligns with the New York Post’s interpretation that this is a close race, especially with three months to go, and criticizes Hochul’s stance on sanctuary policies and affordability, noting rising rents despite Democratic claims. Blakeman is praised for pledging to end sanctuary status on day one, which the host believes resonates with upstate voters.
The host also attacks Hochul, Mayor Adams, and AG James for threatening ICE agents over new electric shock gloves, asserting federal jurisdiction trumps state objections. Tom Homan is quoted debunking claims about migrant children, citing over 14,000 denied detainers involving criminals. The host then pivots to broader critiques of the left, including AOC’s attempts to distance herself from “woke” ideology and Kamala Harris’s proposals to abolish the Electoral College, calling them extreme.
The segment ends with market commentary, suggesting Iran’s threats are overblown given oil price drops and record S&P highs, and promotes sponsor products before closing. Overall, the host frames New York as ripe for a Republican shift, driven by crime, immigration, and fiscal concerns.
FAQs
The poll shows Bruce Blakeman within 10 points of Kathy Hochul in the New York governor's race. The speaker interprets this as a close race, especially since Blakeman has low name recognition, and sees it as a potential sign of New York turning red.
The speaker argues that sanctuary policies make it easier for criminals to operate and are opposed by many outside New York City. They also claim Hochul's stance conflicts with federal jurisdiction over immigration enforcement.
The gloves, called 'gloves' for short, are devices that deliver an electrical charge through contact, purchased by ICE for $20 million. Hochul and Latisha James warned ICE agents of legal consequences if used in New York, but the speaker argues states lack jurisdiction over federal officers.
The speaker believes Hochul, James, and Adams are 'triggered' and making noise to appeal to voters, but their threats lack legal standing. They see these actions as political theater rather than legitimate legal challenges.
Blakeman promises to end New York's sanctuary state status on day one, arguing it wastes taxpayer money on benefits for undocumented immigrants. He claims this issue unites voters across party lines.
The speaker thinks AOC is trying to distance herself from past 'woke one' positions, but it won't work because her actions are on tape. They believe she is still tied to the DSA and its radical agenda.
