America's Mayor Live (727): President Trump Says FBI May Get Involved as Democrats Flee Texas
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Good evening and welcome to America's Mayor Live from Dover, New Hampshire.
Thank you for joining us.
There is a brewing, this could be a major trade dispute that jeopardizes the entire relationship.
I don't know.
doubt it, but it could be.
And that is India's possible because Russia is a, as the president pointed out today, a one commodity country and therefore an extraordinarily weak and vulnerable economy.
You bring down the price of oil and you bankrupt them and destroy them.
You continue to buy oil from them even at discounted rates and you keep a certain level of oil transactions going on and you and you end up funding their slaughter of innocent people in Ukraine and their torture of people, as we're going to point out.
pointed out their torture of people.
While there is a great deal of false reporting on civilians killed by the IDF, where it's probably the only army that I can think of that goes to the lengths that it does to try to avoid killing civilians, the Russians have killed many more civilians than the Israelis have, many, many more.
They also torture civilians.
There's no indication of Israeli torture, although we have current indication of Hamas torture about which the international community does absolutely zero because the international community is aiding and abetting Hamas' terrorism and they have been for 40 years because they're anti-Semitic,
anti-Israel, anti-Jewish or just plain pro-Muslim extremism.
Who knows?
None of it's good.
Well, India is acting very defiant.
Modi over the weekend has defended his ability to take into consideration the economic concerns of his own country.
He points out that other countries are dealing with Russia, but India can't.
That is a double standard and everything you can think of for a person who otherwise is a friend of the United States and an expert, an expert on this made clear, I think this is the journal, made clear.
what their thinking is and this is a guy named sriram chaluya who's the dean of the op jindal global university school of international affairs in Sony Pot, India.
He says the view is that this is not going to affect the overall relationship and we don't have to count out because we need them and they need us to deal with China.
Now, I don't know how we resolve that, but let me tell you what the president has said and in part what he's doing.
He originally said he placed a 25% tariff on Indian imports to the U.S., all Indian imports in addition to whatever tariffs already exist.
Now he says he is considering because of their continuing to do it substantially higher.
Now America has always sort of allowed India to have this relationship with Russia.
Remember, way back in the Cold War, India was really a straight out ally of the Soviet Union and the communists.
It was Pakistan that was our ally.
That switched with Muslim extremism.
That switched.
Now, Trump...
I mean, he met with the head of the Pakistani army when he settled the war between India and Pakistan.
He was fair and balanced in laying out the responsibilities of both, although it did appear to me that that was instigated by Pakistan.
I don't think that worked out really, really well with Modi.
But they were definitely trying to, you know, jab him.
Now, does it work with India?
We're going to have to see.
We have over the years allowed a double sw standard, which is we've allowed them to do and to maintain even after the Soviet Union fell and they switched to becoming our ally, which really was just around the time of Bush, second Bush.
We allowed them to continue their relationship with Russia, which, of course, we would do in normal times.
But now that all of the European countries have cut off Russia, and Russia is a little more...
India is not only buying massive amounts of Russian oil, they are then for much more of the oil purchase, selling it on the open market for big profits.
They don't care how many people in Ukraine are being killed by the Russian war machine.
So as he says, he's going to raise tariffs very, very high.
And there is a purpose to this, and it's a very sound one.
It's trying to get Putin to wake up by slapping him as hard across the face or punching him in the jaw as hard as possible without going to war, without having to go to war.
but make the economic pain so great that you can't stand it.
I mean, this is really no different than what would happen with secondary sanctions.
would affect India greatly because they would be penalized for buying Russian oil and transporting it.
You then put the sanctions not only against the country you're sanctioning, but the countries they do business with.
And 33% of Russia's oil is sold to India.
You knock out 33% of their oil sales and Putin.
Putin's going to have to give up a couple of the mistresses or whatever.
Talk to his daughter.
Boy, she.
boy she she really upset with him for his uh killing ukrainians um and china is the biggest of course dealer with uh russia 50 now it's not as if they're i mean they are getting it at bargain prices as the president points out india then turns around and sells it for a big profit uh so this is interest there isn't what modi makes it out to be oh we need the energy uh-huh We need the more.
That's what we need.
Now, it is true that a certain amount of trading is being done by Turkey, that you would expect because I don't trust Erdogan as far as looking across the room here.
And the surprising one is Japan.
And I hope that's very, very small amount.
And a couple of European Union states, there may be some in Eastern Europe that do some business still with Russia.
We'll have to look at that.
But we're talking about minuscule amounts of money in comparison to 33, even Turkey and Japan and a couple of these little states.
So 83% is taken up by India and China.
So we're not talking about ones that will make a difference.
There is a matter of principle involved, but here with India, it's both a matter of principle and a practical issue.
Now, this is all on a day in which a Ukrainian prisoner of war was returned and described the conditions.
of his confinement by the Russians, which would make you think, you know, that Stalin was still in charge.
He was just about starved to death, beaten.
I guess you could call it tortured.
This is not war.
This is state conducted terrorism by Putin.
And he also had branded onto his skin Slava Russia.
So now we, there it is.
Now that, that, that is to, look all those cuts on his stomach.
I wonder what those are.
See, Ted?
Going above his...
I mean, I guess that's probably how we seal them up.
He probably got cut open.
That looks like stitches, doesn't it?
Yeah, those are stitches.
That's a side shot.
So that's him.
They say this translates into Slava Russia.
I don't see that there.
But of course, there are some in the Russian alphabet, which I would have no idea what those are.
The reason they did Slava Russia, which means glory to Russia, is that a number of the Ukrainian soldiers...
have a tattoo saying Slava Ukraine.
So this was to stick it back to him and send him back with that permanently engraved on his skin.
Exactly how he got out, why he got out, what the trade was, I don't know.
I just know that he came forward with this and he's not the first.
And not that the world press is particularly sympathetic with Russia, but for some reason they don't.
It's like expected of Russia that they're going to torture people.
Whereas if Israel accidentally...
I think has to be a lot.
I mean, look what they've done to my favorite city, Kharkiv.
I mean, they've killed thousands of people there.
There's a million Ukrainians that are living outside of Ukraine because they figure if they were in Ukraine, they'd be dead now.
Well, back in America, which is turning partially communist and socialist, or there's a real attempt in New York to make it communist, Comrade Zoltan.
Old Tron Mandami received support from Pocahontas.
I don't know if this suggests a great deal of Native American support in New York, but as far as I can tell, the Native Americans don't like Pocahontas because they think she's a damn liar.
And Indians, Native Americans.
Many of the tribes were valued for their honesty and integrity, even though they might have been very, very fierce warriors.
Somebody who pretends to be Native American So she can get ahead of others to get into school and creep out a little bit of money like Mandami did also, even though he's rich.
Mandami claimed to be black.
And when I look at a picture of him, you tell me if he's black or is he just a damn liar and cheat and fraud and communist pig.
Well, he and Warren had a great time together.
The post says, giving Warren cheap thrills.
I don't know exactly how he did that and I'm not going to ask.
And it is unfair to call her Pocahontas.
Pocahontas was a beautiful young Indian maiden.
There's nothing young or beautiful about the modern Pocahontas.
Whoa.
I don't know what kind of thrills Mondami would give her, but.
Hey, me.
So was this when he was down in, Well, you'll like it.
You don't have to be alone.
Yeah.
He's in, but he's, I don't know if, I don't know if she's in favor of state-owned grocery stores.
Right.
Well, you'll like the.
New York Post cover here.
You maybe even already seen it.
this is the late city final and i think you'll find this quite the headline mayor that's pretty good man that's pretty good that's pretty good new post right they never fail that's a good one that was late she should have at least shown up with her her indian headdress Right.
And Polkana's outfit.
Right.
Gosh, Almighty.
I don't know, there should be a, if there were a national council of tribes or something, Right.
Well, for a very, very long time from the day it began, the idea of legalizing marijuana in New York to me was a disaster.
And I predicted what would happen, oh gosh, 30 years ago when people said, oh, it's harmless.
It won't do anything.
It'll cut down on the use of marijuana.
It'll cut down on organized crimes profits from marijuana.
And I said, you liberals are just...
First of all, many more people will use it.
Many more people will get addicted.
Oh no, you don't get addicted to marijuana.
I mean, I knew people who were.
I knew people who were seriously addicted to marijuana.
I don't know how they say that, but they do.
Marijuana is really harmless.
Much, much better than alcohol.
All of that is in dispute now.
It's been study after study after study showing that marijuana is more dangerous than alcohol because it has a much more serious long-term impact on the brain, including parts of the brain that can affect your behavior, violence, lack of violence, and losing control of your emotions.
has a tremendous effect on the cognitive part of the brain.
It renders you unable to have motor skills, which means you can be much worse than a drunk driver, except we can't detect it as well because there is no test like we have for alcohol that determines a number beyond which you're clearly going to be impaired.
We don't know that.
We have to figure that out by looking at you, and sometimes it's not apparent that you shouldn't be behind the wheel of a car.
This is so bad that the state of Washington is considering changing their laws.
Colorado should, but they're governed by communist pigs who are the ones that brought all of the illegals into Denver and ruined it and the mayor who was going to stand at the gates of Denver and stop and stop Ice from coming in except he asked where the gates of Denver are there are no gates to Denver so the poor little jackass didn't have any place to go but hide in his basement when Ice did come in and take out a lot of the illegals that he and
governor governor Felice Navidad invited in so cannabis in New York is leading to the study just done by an organization that tries to alleviate the worst aspects of drug addiction.
There was a study done that we now have a record number of people in New York suffering from marijuana addiction, cannabis addiction.
um um It's one of the stupidest things a society has done.
They legalized cannabis during the opioid crisis.
That comes from Luke Nastor, who's president and CEO of Camelot Counseling.
drug addicts.
And this is like about the fifth or sixth report of overwhelming numbers of addicts since we legalized marijuana.
I want to stand what we really did.
Since we put together a usual useless, I'm not going to say corrupt because I can't prove that, but usually that goes along with it too.
Usually useless, unable to get any work done, unable to act as responsible adult Democrat.
creeps to oversee legal marijuana.
They spent five years fighting with each other as to how it was going to be divided.
I hesitate to think what this fighting was all about because I remember when they fought over the contracts for cable in New York City and it really was all about divering up the kickbacks and the millions and millions of dollars that were paid back and forth.
A lot of them going to politicians like David Dinkins and Charlie Wrangle.
So I don't know if that's happened here, but this took five years at least.
During that time, over a thousand illegal cannabis stores emerged in New York.
Given the fact that we were going to legalize it and given the fact that.
we then got bragged as a DA, and instead of being prosecuted for it, you would get a citizen's achievement award for opening an illegal marijuana shop.
We have thousands of them in New York, and then the first legal ones opened, and now we have hundreds of those.
And they're turning out to violate every law imaginable.
And a number of people using marijuana, some people say it's tripled.
Not only that, but it has increased the stigmatization But this addiction thing is again proof positive of one of the lies told to you when they legalize marijuana that it's not addictive.
It is addictive.
It is very addictive.
It is in fact an entry drug, not for everyone, but for a lot of people.
Very few people start with heroin or crack.
Most people start with marijuana.
If you can keep them away from marijuana, it's like the broken windows theory.
They ain't going to become crack and heroin addicts or whatever else they put into their bodies to destroy themselves.
And we're talking about numbers now in American cities, particularly run by Democrats who seem to, they certainly love cannabis more than they love God.
They don't even like God.
I mean, cannabis is the great God.
I mean, Adams said that New York would have a great economy based on gambling and cannabis.
No wonder he can't, he can't even.
gain a point against a communist socialist.
Then you gotta make your mind up between a guy who's had the right ideas but can't execute, except for cannabis, which is nuts.
A city based on an economy of cannabis and gambling is a city run by organized crime.
Because yes, there'll be the legal aspect of it, but then there'll be the offshoots that organized crime will control and they will do everything they can to try to control the legal aspect of it also.
like they did with las vegas until I and the Justice Department and Randy Mastro and Joe deGenova threw them out of Las Vegas.
This is the stupidest thing no no it isn't stupid nothing stupid about it all the people who went along with it and don't know why are stupid but there's a real marxist purpose behind this and it's working now i'm going to give you an example of what these pro non-profits are all about please don't get all bleary eyed over non-profits please don't i mean one of the biggest corruption cases i had going way back to the lindsay administration was a non-profit.
They stole millions.
If the nonprofits in New York worked, there'd be nobody poor in New York that's gotten so much money.
Most of that money that didn't get to the poor people who remain poor went through the not-for-profits who have the big extravaganzas where AOC can cheat and get a $35,000 gown and claim it's worth $700, you know, that kind of thing.
I mean, this is all one big web of corruption to create and maintain a dependent, seriously dependent community.
It's the Democrat Party's extension of one of the great institutions that they supported more than any other group in the history of America, and that's slavery.
So the law in New York, as the New York Post points out, doesn't even have limits on public smoking of marijuana.
So you walk around New York and you're in a marijuana den.
I remember when I was told by a very nice police officer a long time back, I was sitting in Central Park and I couldn't smoke a cigar in Central Park.
Bloomberg had prohibited it.
I said, what happens if I pull out a marijuana cigar?
I said, well, we can't arrest you for that.
And he laughed and I laughed.
It wasn't so funny, was it?
Housing Works sounds like a really wonderful place.
I mean, this is like Mother Teresa, right?
Except Housing Works has two different groups that get a fortune from the government.
One is a drug treatment service, very commendable.
The other is a drug distribution service, very uncommendable.
That's like alcohol, alcoholics anonymous being funded to hold their alcohol anonymous session and then after, my name is Ron Smith and I'm an alcoholic.
And I'm here because for the next hour, I'm going to sit through this meeting and listen to all of your bullshit while I wait for the cocktail hour.
And that's what I like so much about alcoholics.
And thank you for providing the liquor later.
So you go to Housing Works and they treat you for drugs, and then you go next door and get your drugs.
Okay.
Are liberals stupid or perverse?
Both in different degrees, from those who are extraordinarily stupid to those who are extraordinarily evil.
And they all come together and they all have to think the same way, use the same words, believe the same things, and negate history in exactly the same way.
There was an article I found somewhere about a survey.
a service known as mood and this mood thing you can you can order your cannabis online and i have i'm not going to show it to you but i i took out their advertisement like amazon like an amazon very very seductive uh it tells you um 100 federally legal thc from small u.s farms I don't know how that is since it still violates
federal law.
Is there some exemption for small U.S. farms to grow marijuana?
I didn't know that.
We'll have to find out.
Some of these packages of marijuana are wrapped in replicas of the American flag.
Thanks to the 2018 farm bill, cannabis products that contain less than 0.3% Delta 9 THC by dryware can be legally sold and shipped nationwide.
That means you can enjoy potent, high quality THC flour without worrying about legality.
That's it, I guess.
And with trusted retailers like Mood, you can be confident that what you're getting is not only legal, but premium in every way.
why more people are choosing online cannabis delivery.
It's becoming the go-to option for cannabis lovers.
Now they have a whole group of it here and they have pictures of it.
Now it looks awful.
I don't know why they show pictures of it.
Looks a little like dog crap.
One of its name, Pluto, Super Buff Cherry.
They got a whole bunch of different ones here.
The number one choice.
hand-selected high potency strains.
Ah, those are the ones they go for.
The high potency strains.
You can blow your brains out.
Meanwhile, studies are coming out left and right, particularly in Europe, that it is seriously damaging to your brain, much more than we ever thought.
And of course, obviously, it would have to stand to reason that the more potent you make it, and it's something like eight times more potent than it was 30 years ago, the more damage it's going to do to your brain.
Maybe that's why Colorado is all messed up.
Even the poor people that don't use it are taking it in or smelling it all the time.
And they're walking around in a fog.
No wonder they voted for Biden.
They went into the voting booth in a fog.
I mean, there are people who complain about it in New York.
I mean, I've experienced a little bit of it in New York, but I don't really recall.
Maybe I'm not as sensitive to it.
I don't know.
But I've been with friends who say, can't you smell that marijuana?
And I'll say, it just smells bad.
So hand-selected high-potency strains, foam fresh.
Foam fresh, and organically grown.
That's really amazing.
You're going to worry about whether there are additives, you know, like impure additives in marijuana.
Triple test it.
Echo friendly.
The Greenies can have it.
All you want, Greenies.
Trusted by thousands.
Then it shows you how to choose your favorite strain.
Go into your cart.
And then it has an outline of states that tell you what you can get.
Select the state you live in and if your state allows for legal cannabis delivery, you will be redirected to the mood website to shop.
Now, I can't believe that in some way this doesn't violate federal law.
They have that narrow exception for farms, but it seems to me this is a multi-billion dollar business.
And of course, it would be okay in New York, but the federal statute is still there.
I'd rating, please, if somebody could do a little research and want to call in and let us know.
I do not understand how this doesn't run afoul with the federal statutes.
And if so, I don't know where they're located, but any state could take them on, any state to which they're selling a product and they got to be some conservative states who actually care about the brains of their citizens.
How to order high quality cannabis online with mood.
That's the name of this destructive website.
Legal THC delivery.
Well, I mean, they claim that.
But then they require you to look at your state.
I can't believe they're doing all that business within that narrow farm bill exception.
Yesterday there was a police funeral for a police officer who died in the line of duty.
um Mandami didn't go to the funeral.
Well, he showed up at that funeral, but he didn't show up at any of the funerals, even people who died in his area.
You should lift up officers when you're not running for mayor, Adam said to reporters about Montgomery.
He could have lifted them up when he was an assemblyman.
He could have done it over the years when he was in Albany.
Well, I mean, I don't know if it's appropriate to use a police officer's funeral.
His wife did a beautiful job of eulogizing him, I may add.
But this guy is so dangerous.
that you have to take some of the gloves off, I think.
And so far, I don't see a road to defeating him.
I supported last time very, very strongly my friend Curtis Sliwa.
I would like to support him now.
I do support him, I guess.
But I'm not filled with a great deal of confidence either, given the polls that I see, but more importantly, given the nature of the opponents' campaigns, including Cuomo's.
They all seem to be They all seem to be just kind of play acting until the end.
I know what a winning campaign looks like and feels like.
Still time.
Still time.
We'll cross that bridge.
Still time.
When we know how to cross it, we don't right now.
As I told you, and we showed you some pictures of it, I don't know if we have any available now.
I could get some available after I take a short break.
But they had yesterday the conclusion of the youth jubilee in Rome.
And they say it was well over a million young people.
that showed up to see Pope Leo say Mass and display the Eucharist.
And it was described as a beautiful, solemn occasion, giving great hope to the world that young people are not of one mind, but there are many that are returning to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
It was at 7.30 p.m. yesterday when the Pope arrived, cheers of viva papa.
He then brought out the Eucharist.
And one million young people suddenly fell silent, many on their knees with their eyes closed.
This is from the New York Post, I think.
It's their press reader.
I'm not sure this was in the post.
We have some video.
Father, there's a beautiful video of the Pope carrying the cross.
Looks like a big, heavy cross, too.
in pretty good shape that leo This is, there he is here.
This is last night.
was this last night or the night before some
video about put some sound here some video about put some sound
here.
Thank you.
It is quite a beautiful, beautiful ceremony.
I should have stayed an extra day.
Unfortunately, the video we had showed the adults.
And that is the Eucharist displayed for, they say, one million people.
And I think you can see that it's total silence there.
This was not at the Vatican.
This was at a place known as Purva Goddard.
Purva Goddard It's described to the post by Father Vincent Bernard, who's the university chaplain at NYU, led a pilgrimage of students there.
And he said that he spoke with a 19-year-old, Mario Terese from Illinois.
He recently became a Catholic and told Father Bernard, this was sensational.
I truly feel changed forever.
I feel like I've found my forever home in the Catholic Church.
It concluded with they're singing a hymn, Jesus Christ, you are my life.
I have a feeling that's what they're singing right now.
The author, whose name I don't have of this work, let me see, Colm Flynn.
That's it, Colm Flynn.
He's a correspondent for EWTN, the Global Catholic Network.
And he observed from the young people I spoke to at Torah Regatta, I got a sense they are searching for deeper answers to life's oldest questions.
This is something Pope Leo spoke to directly from the stage.
He said, there is a burning question in our hearts, a need for truth.
We cannot ignore, which leads us to ask ourselves, what is true happiness?
What is the true meaning of.
Indeed, from traveling the world, covering the Catholic Church and the people's relationship with faith for EWTN, I think young people, especially, have been fed the lie that you'll find fulfillment in fame, fortune, and followers.
They've been encouraged to hang their identity on their career, on their social media persona, and on their popularity.
And while these things might offer instant short-term gratification, more and more young people seem to be realizing that they don't lead to lasting, meaningful fulfillment.
When the three Fs disappear, fame, fortune, followers, will give your life fulfillment and meaning.
Young people today are holding out for and looking for meaning.
And many are finding it in the tradition, culture, and beauty of the Catholic Church.
Very well written poem.
It's our hope.
The atheists, the Marxists have driven God out of America and to a large extent out of Europe.
The young people, the younger, even more, are coming back in large, large numbers.
I was absolutely floored to read, and I assume it's true, I should really check it, that there are now more Roman Catholics in England than Anglicans, which is the Church of England founded by Henry VIII and Elizabeth I in a breakaway from the Pope over his marriage to Anne Boleyn, who he subsequently chopped a head off.
They don't let him back in after he chopped the head off, by the way.
He also killed one of his best friends, Thomas Moore, who died a martyr and a saint of the Roman Catholic Church and the patron saint of lawyers, often described as the last lawyer who got into heaven.
Aha, it's a joke.
Aha.
Now I sound like one of those late night hosts who aren't going to be around soon.
Well, they say over a million people attended.
Yeah, there you go.
They're the young people.
Those are the young people that I saw.
It was very nice to see.
Yeah, nice.
We got to get Dr. Maria's pictures.
She took even better pictures than I did.
We went to the two most significant basilica churches, their pilgrimage assigned them certain churches they had to go to, many of which have tremendous historical significance.
John Latterin, for example, was the first Vatican, existed there for hundreds of years before it was moved to the Vatican Hill.
And the church of St. John Latterin is the official church of the Bishop of Rome, which makes it in a certain way legally the primary church in Roman Catholicism, not the great basilica, although that's sort of a real technicality.
I would say the Pope, I would say that guy from Chicago is pretty unpopular.
Notice he's not in a bubble.
Pretty brave man.
That's open topic.
I don't see a bubble, do you?
I mean, as far as I can recall, since the attempt on post- Don't we always see him come out?
It's like a very large golf cart.
There he's in a truck.
Yeah, that's a million people.
I just often go up in a helicopter to look at crowds because crowd estimates are always so eventful.
I remember some of the concerts in Central Park where we had 100,000 people, let's say.
Right.
That's, I'm going to tell you, that's a million people.
I mean, just from, even though I haven't done it in a while, and it isn't a million people, it's real close.
But you couldn't move in Rome for the three days that we were there without bumping into these kids from all over the world, white kids, black kids, brown kids, in between kids, kids, kids, kids.
And they range from.
When I say kids, we're really talking mostly teenagers.
Wonderfully, of course, wonderfully disciplined, not a problem.
And as I said, they had, they were like this Father Bernard led a pilgrimage that was built around, I guess, NYU, but they all were associated with some group or other.
And it was very well organized.
They had preachers who came and spoke to them.
And they went to certain churches for services.
They got to see both the historical and religious side of Rome.
Also, they flooded the ice cream places.
It was hard to get ice cream.
It was a beautiful thing to see.
It really lifted.
And I don't think we realized how many people, now that I look at that, I would not have said it was that many people.
Oh, my goodness.
Oh, my goodness.
Look at that.
Look at that.
Well, That's the hope.
We need God back.
So we need him back in America.
We need him back in the world.
It's what's missing.
It's the stability that's missing.
And Even if you don't believe in God, you should understand that if you're intelligent and free of biases and prejudices.
Terry Moran, remember, who got fired?
Terry, where's Terry?
Well, Terry admitted.
And he wrote this in a Substack post last week.
Were we biased, meaning against Trump?
Answer yes, almost inadvertently, I'd say.
Moran said the network did not diversify when it came to hiring pro-Trump voices, which is bound to impact coverage from what is a kind of deafness.
Is that the first one to admit it?
I mean, it's not a complete admission.
It's almost as if it happened by accident.
It really was on purpose.
But I'm trying to think, have there been any, yeah, there have been people who've sort of, like converts.
Yeah.
But this is maybe the most prominent.
So now what's going see if we can get some, let me get some Should we take a short break?
Yeah, now would be a good time to do that so I can get some of this stuff organized here.
And we'll come back and give everyone an update on the, I guess, somehow they're spinning themselves as being courageous Democrats fleeing their own state.
Here we are, pretty much at the beginning of the process here at this pristine, I call it a laboratory.
It's not like a factory, it's like a hospital.
This is the beginning of the process for roasting.
Deep green, very good quality.
Most people don't use this quality.
We deal with small farmers because they'd like to know who we're dealing with.
They give us the highest quality, all organic, non GMO.
You should know all Arabica beans.

Welcome back to America's Mayor Live.
And our update on Texas is Ted.
That's right, Mayor.
And see if my, oh, see, it's always out of focus.
I got to refocus it every night.
And then I got to, we want you focused.
I know, out of focus here, but, okay, well, that's okay.
You got to get up and focus.
Yeah.
So the latest is that the governor, governor Abbott, has asked this Texas Supreme Court to remove the Democrat ranking leader from office, arguing that by leaving the state, he has abandoned his oath to Texas, his duty to Texas.
So who, who, he's gone to the court to do that?
He's gone to the court to get to remove Texas representative Gene Woo, Woo being the Democrat leader in the.
Now, what about the idea that it violates, well, it violates Texas law, but there was some talk of the federal of the FBI getting involved.
How does it violate state law, federal law?
Yeah, so having getting the FBI involved is interesting.
I believe a reporter had asked.
asked and actually John Cornyn has also asked, suggested that the FBI get involved.
So I'm, there must be some sort of connection to the redistricting.
The House Speaker under Texas law has the right to issue warrants if they leave the state.
I think that exists under Texas law.
I got that.
whether it's a criminal charge or not.
Last time they had to pay a big fine.
He's requesting federal assistance.
So you're right.
You can arrest, but Texas has to do the arresting.
assistance crossing state lines to violate a law like this would not fit under um so the senator is citing that fact crossing state lines in pursuance of the crimes are usually crimes of violence senator cornyn sexual or sexual uh abuse Senator Cornyn wrote to FBI Director Cash Patel,
quote, since these state legislators are currently outside of Texas, the Texas Department of Public Safety may need support to arrest the fleeing lawmaker.
I request the FBI's assistance.
So is the question which the FBI can do.
The FBI can assist local law enforcement or state law enforcement in the execution of state laws if they're requested to do so.
So that's why they're being used as opposed to being used to enforce a federal statute.
Now, I'm going to do a little research to see if there isn't a federal statute that applies.
So it's very, very strange, Ted.
I am 100% with the idea of if there is a law saying they can be arrested in return, that you execute it.
And if there is a law that says they can be prosecuted criminally or civilly for doing it, 100% do it.
Because it is ridiculous what they're doing.
Right.
I mean, they're destroying.
It's about destroying democracy.
They all were elected by the people of Texas, and they all have to vote for Texas to have a democracy.
For half of them to run out to effectively end a quorum, Texas, Texas, citizens didn't give them the right uh not to show up to vote right um in any event Here's where I get nervous.
And that is removing the guy from office.
I think removal from office is one hell of a dramatic slap in the face to the people who voted for him.
And I don't like it.
I don't like removal from office.
Now, if that's the penalty after conviction of a crime, that's different.
But premature removal from office, I'd have to take a good look at that.
I mean, I would step back and if I was asked to do that as a governor, I would say, wait a second, let's do some research, guys.
Yeah.
Some soul searching.
If you say issue a warrant, show me the statute.
We'll issue the warrant.
If you say ask the FBI to help, absolutely.
If we issue a warrant, we want it to work.
If you're asking me, is it wrong for them to leave the state it's it's um i think if it isn't criminal it should be uh It's also infantile as hell.
It indicates the fact that the Democrat Party has lost all concept of democracy, all concept.
If it's not their way, they're going to take their toys and go home.
It's absurd.
And to do this over gerrymandering, which they do.
Abbott has actually a reason to do it.
There have been complaints about how Texas, based on the Voting Rights Act, was gerrymandered.
And the Supreme Court has cast a lot of doubt on the, has first of all limited the Voting Rights Act substantially and cast substantial doubt on whether they're going to, they're going to, they're going to allow it to continue.
In fact, they just took a case two days ago for next term that raises the issue that the voting, voting rights act directly conflicts with the 14th Amendment right to vote.
So the Voting Rights Act was justified on the theory that there was substantial discrimination in the right to vote against black people.
Now, if that has been cured, then that exception doesn't exist anymore.
And in certain places, the court has held it no longer exists.
And they've done away with the Voting Rights Act.
There's been a big complaint of Democrats.
It's been going on for about three or four years of opinions.
Now the question is, is it time to do away with it completely?
There are four or five districts in Texas that only exist the way they do because they were gerrymandered, rigged, in order to comply with the Voting Rights Act.
If the Voting Rights Act no longer applies, then it's time to redo them.
And the state legislature can make its own decision with regard to that.
Then it gets challenged by the court.
That's what Abbott wants to do.
It's very, very different than what they do in New York and in Illinois and elsewhere.
I mean, they had a plan in New York that was so bad that even the Democratic court kicked it out and then they put some judges on and took took a lot of it back i mean the democrats play this game a lot more than republicans do or certainly equally i don't know about republicans walking out on that do they oh may or many cases where they control the state so much that are walking out when they'd have a quorum
Anyway, in New York, it's quite possible that if we were Republican.
The state and the house, the assembly, there'd still be a quorum.
Right.
Yeah.
I don't even know if we have that.
I don't think we.
Do we in Illinois?
They say Illinois is the worst rigged state.
Wouldn't be surprised, but we know that Michigan's got its issues and Pennsylvania.
Michigan has been rigged for sure.
Pennsylvania, terrible.
California is absurd.
California.
I mean, Nevada.
I don't know what Nevada.
California.
Yeah, yeah.
Fancy pants.
is saying that he's going to retaliate.
I love that we all know he's going to come up with three or four more Democratic districts.
I love to throw the Republicans out of office.
Mayor, I love that we all know who you mean when you refer to Fancy Pants, right?
Oh, yeah.
It's obviously Mr. Hypocrite.
Yeah.
That's a good one.
I think Fancy Pants should be his nickname.
I like that.
New Scum.
I like New Scum.
It's kind of...
I mean, that's a harsh one, which he deserves.
It's a little harsh.
It's harsh, right?
It's a little harsh.
It's a little harsh for a guy that has hardly any manly qualities.
Well, that's the thing.
Fancy Pants.
It's relatively lighthearted.
I like that one.
That's a good one.
So the Canadian Prime Minister, Mark Carney, who is a...
a wild and crazy left winger not mandami but getting close uh decided to take the whole embrace of gay rights one step further and started dancing with an almost nude man in an embrace with a nearly naked man the ex bank of England.
The straight lay 60-year-old Liberal Party leader made a surprise appearance at Vancouver Pride this past weekend.
And he started dancing with a nude guy.
Not the best example.
But just so you know what you're dealing with in Canada.
Mark, I don't understand why the Canadians don't vote 100% to join us with the crepit government they've had for the last 10 years and their wildfires now their economy has gotten i mean the country should be rich as hell their wildfires are out of control right now and the smoke's coming over the we haven't we haven't experienced it here maybe we're too close to the ocean but so the yankees work like hell uh-oh to make a trade for
jake bird because their bullpen has had real problems right yep and um I don't know who they gave up or what they did, but they were, you know, they were, the right-wing reliever has a 2.63 ERA.
He's given up two home runs in his first 37 appearances through July 1st.
But in his last eight games as a Rocky, the 29-year-old got tagged for 14 earned runs across five and a third innings, good for a 23.63 ERA.
Bird, who caused the Yankee prospects, Rock Origio and Ben Shields.
On Saturday, he pitched a perfect sixth inning with two strikeouts.
And then he came in yesterday, got clubbered.
How long?
So he's only been there for that long.
That's tough.
I'll say, so he's been sent down to Scranton.
Never want to go from New York.
Yankees lost again.
And they are now tied for the last.
They are now tied.
They used to be in first place for most of the season up until a week or so.
At various times, they had commanding leads.
And now they are five games out of first, hanging on in a tie for the last wild card spot.
And with Judge out now for a week or so, they can't seem to win a game.
Now, this is the way they used to be a couple of years ago.
when they won something like 80% of the games judged with, was in and lost like 60 of the ones that he wasn't in But last year, they were winning with and without him.
Of course, a lot of that credit went to Juan Soto, who when either Judge was out or slumping would take up the slack and vice versa.
Well, the Yankees don't have Soto.
We went to the Mets where he's had a completely disappointing season.
He had about a one or two week or month sort of revival, but now he's gone back to being nonproductive.
So maybe Soto wants to come back to the Yankees because he needs that.
Yeah, you're right in it.
You're still in it right there.
Maybe he needed judge.
Is judge, is he back yet?
Judge is due back, yeah.
Scoreless, bomb of the third against the Rangers.
For me?
Yankees scoreless, bomb of the third in Arlington, Texas.
Yeah, well, the Rangers beat them last night.
That's the game in which they knocked Bird out, sent him back to the miners.
They can't come up with a reliable reliever.
But this guy, I mean, this is a strange trade when you when you look at how he slid with a 23.63 earned run average in the last month.
Looks like he's just continuing that kind of pitching.
Apparently the Canadian Wildfires, the smoke is reaching all the way to New York City, but we haven't really experienced it here.
The I don't know if it's smog, the smoke from the Canadian Wildfires apparently is hitting New Jersey.
Our correspondent Rob from Seacaucus, Hello, Rob is letting us know that they've been shrouded in smoke all day from the Canadian wildfires.
Remember a few years ago when that happened?
It's been very cloudy here though.
Yeah.
So maybe that is why.
Today and yesterday, remember, it was very, very cloudy.
We wanted to take some pictures yesterday and we thought it wasn't sunny enough.
Right.
Let us know in the chat, are you getting the smoke from the Canadian wildfires?
I'm hearing a lot of it in Michigan, Ohio and now New Jersey and New York City is getting.
You should try it.
You should try New Delhi or Mumbai.
Is it always like that?
Or Beijing.
I've forgotten if it was New Delhi or Mumbai, but I was there with my partner, Dan Connolly.
And we had a hotel in India, and it led to a little garden outdoors.
So we went to the garden outdoors and we lit up a cigar.
And after about 10 minutes, Dan said, look him back in.
I looked him back at me, and the cigar smoke that I was blowing out was still there.
It was standing there waiting for me.
It wouldn't move.
Because the air is so heavy.
They have so much pollution.
So it just sits there.
This was like 15 years ago.
That's still amazing.
That's amazing.
It's still a little better.
I mean, they burn all the coal we don't.
China and India burns all the coal that we don't.
We lose all the money, all the jobs.
They get all the money, all the jobs.
They pollute like hell.
They're dirty in terms of the way in which they do it.
We have a much cleaner, more refined method of doing it.
Almost no pollution.
And if you believe in the green thing, it would create some kind of green carbohydrate, whatever.
But you have to have a conversion and believe in that.
So you would know this, of course, but you know the controversy with Sydney Sweeney, who showed up in a commercial for American Eagles jeans, and she did a play on the word jeans.
Or she didn't, the advertisement did.
And it said, you know, jeans usually means this, that, that, that, that, that.
But these are Sydney's jeans.
And there you see Sydney looking gorgeous.
And they spelled it, you know, they did the spellings.
the first part of the advertisement jeans is g-en-es second part is j-e-a-n-s so uh the uh The people who spend their time being extremely depressed, any day they don't feel insulted, decided to get it, found a great one here to have like many, many days of insult.
They decided they were insulted.
Now, why were they insulted?
Because this was a comment on eugenics.
This is the same group that funds Planned Parenthood who basically founded eugenics to wipe out black people.
That...
It's a play on words.
So they decided now they've got to crucify Sidney Sweeney because she participated in this ad that talked about jeans.
And I guess they were talking about her jeans, you know, blue eyes and blonde hair and whatever.
And they said that was a racial comment.
Except what are you going to say about her jeans?
That she's black?
I mean, if she were, she could be just as beautiful.
And we'd say her jeans were black.
I can, but she's a blue-eyed blonde.
But then they reject the jeans.
That just, and they say, well, it's really about her jeans.
Amazing.
The ad is kind of stupid, actually.
I don't know if it's stupid.
It's a play on words.
It's a play on words.
I thought it was fun.
I mean, not once did it cross my mind that this ad right here.
I just wouldn't get mad at her.
I think it's ineffective to get mad at that girl.
But not once did I think I get the gene, the play on the word jeans, but I'm like, I see a beautiful woman.
So you've heard that before.
Oh, you have good genes.
It's not a race thing at all.
You have good genes.
She's an objectively good looking woman.
I probably can't say this anymore, that the son of the Shah who's trying to worm his way back into Iraq by messing around with the IRGC, which somebody should investigate, by the way.
That's no joke.
That guy is the son of a corrupt, brutal, homicidal dictator.
who has lived the life of a prince based on blood money, based on the money stolen from the Iranian people.
He's done nothing to help Iran in all these years.
Now he wants to come back and lead Iran and says he is in close contact with the IRGC.
Well, that's good.
So now let's investigate him for aiding and abetting terrorism because the IRGC is a terrorist organization.
And this near-do-well character is going to navigate that in the interests of everyone, like Kelly is.
You want to bet who's getting the better of that relationship?
So I say he is, because there once was a book sayinging that his father was a diminution of the gene pool from his father, who was the first Shah and much tougher.
Whereas the second Shah, although equally homicidal, brutal, and corrupt, he existed totally on stolen money from his people and a whole cadre of people around him who stole like hell.
But he also developed a secret police that was even more brutal than his father ever had.
So they said he was a diminution of the gene pool from his father.
Well, this is another diminution of the gene pool.
I don't know, is that racist or eugenics or just another way of saying he's stupid?
Well, Sydney, the ad is doing great.
The stock of the company has gone up like 15, 20%.
The ad is creating a tremendous increase in sales.
And all those ladies want to buy those jeans so they can look like you.
And they will.
If they buy the jeans, they'll look just like Sydney.
That's the real idea of it, isn't it?
That's what they're trying to.
If you're looking for the advertising undercover motive, it's to say to you kind of unrealistically, if you just put on those jeans, you're going to look like Sydney Sweeney.
I don't think so.
Take a little more than that.
It's going to take those jeans that she had.
So I haven't seen this description before, but it was used.
It was used in a City Journal article written by Jesse Arm, and it's excerpted in the post, a little short excerpt from it.
I haven't read the whole thing.
I have it next to my bed for tonight.
But it talks about how we are developing something called Luigiism.
Luigiism refers, of course, to Luigi Mangione, who was the killer of the United Healthcare CEO, Brian Thompson, back in December, who has become like a media darling.
I mean, to these perverted people, he's like Sidney Sweeney as to normal people.
And they love Luigi and they want to marry Luigi.
And this guy, Brian, has become some kind of a demon even though we don't know anything about him.
His company is killing people by turning down claims.
His company also probably has equal or if not greater number of false claims.
And then of course there was the killing that took place on Times Square, which is really more of a mass killing in which Wesley LaPattner was killed.
And she was a very, very admirable CEO, not CEO, but a high-level partner.
in Blackstone and there's a lot of that going around.
She deserves to die because she's so rich.
What?
Also, they say that although Zoran Mandami hasn't quite embraced these two killings, in fact, the second one, he said some things against.
He has talked about the fact that people don't have a right to be rich.
And the people who follow him very much believe that violence is justified based on identity and class structure.
So this is very much an application of Daniel Patrick Moynihan's description of the 1980s in which he said we were, or early 90s in which he said we were defining DVNC down.
There was a killing of seven people in New York and it made headlines but one day.
He pointed out that the St. Valentine's Day massacre was also seven people.
It was national news for a year and it created the FBI.
He said that was a country that had much greater moral fiber than the country that we now have because we take it for granted that people are going to be killed and we don't get all upset about it.
Well, here we're now talking about retributive justice.
And we get comments sometimes that directly approve it and comments that suggest that they're approving it.
or that you don't have to feel as bad because this person was killed because they were rich as opposed to that person who was poor.
I don't see anything in the fifth commandment.
We talked about the third commandment yesterday, which is,
sad indication of how we've become how we have defined deviancy down, one more serious than the other because it leads to violence.
But there is certainly a justification of violence against people that these left-wingers hate.
And you've got to say when you look at the violence that's going on, although there is some violence from the far right, and it's got to be 80, 90% from the left, without any doubt.
You look at the difference between the riots in 2020 that took place all over America, in which 20, 30 people died, billions of dollars in damage.
None of them took place without a burning, with what they want to claim was an insurrection in the capital and nothing burned.
And the people that died were the Trump supporters, for which there's been no justice, retributive or otherwise, just complete ignoring of the murder of Ashley Babbitt.
Nobody's even going to investigate it.
One investigation that took place was a joke.
They never even asked the police officer the most important question, was he in fear for his life?
Well, he couldn't have been in fear for his life.
The woman was unarmed.
She was 5'2.
She was being thrown over a transom.
And when he got a chance to grab her, he would have had six cops right next to him helping him.
Plus, on her side, there were six cops that could have stopped her and didn't.
Also, in between them were two men who were acting violently, who should have been the people.
If he was going to overreact and shoot somebody, he shot.
All of that went unexplored because...
Ms. Babbitt was a supporter of Donald Trump and therefore deserved to die.
This is why what we showed earlier in the show, all those beautiful young people the million with the pope and bringing god back this is why we need god back morality doesn't exist in a vacuum you need an anchor for it oh my goodness you can have other anchors for it yes but for thousands and thousands of years the most effective anchor has been belief in it in god belief
in a supreme being that makes certain requirements upon you for the gift of life.
And part of those requirements is to lead a good life.
And it goes.
back to the commandments when Moses was given the commandments by the Supreme Being for his people to follow.
Those should be a part of our everyday life.
They're part of our law.
They're part of our law that comes from God as opposed to from human beings.
Thou shalt not kill.
I mean, look at the extent we go to if someone does a mocking presentation regarding Muhammad, where it may not be mocking at all, just historically accurate, like when Muhammad participated in mass killings.
So suppose you draw a picture of that.
You just draw a picture of a historical fact that's in the Quran.
But Chicago will take the exhibit down.
and they'll do a fat war against you.
Uh, and you'll have to leave the rest of your life hiding.
Now you do the same thing to Jesus and you get, God has to come back.
Well, having said that, we're going to leave you with that thought and ask you to pray along with all those wonderful young people for a peaceful world and particularly for the people who are at war now, for the people in certainly Ukraine, who are waiting for the tyrant Putin to get reined in.
The people in Israel who live with the constant threat of annihilation by their neighbors, the people of Iran whose entire culture and civilization has been taken away from them by the reign of terror, And for all good people, certainly for Christians who are being slaughtered all over
the world, Can you handle it?
Mostly by Muslims.
And it's been that way for 14, 15, 1600 years.
Not that Christians haven't killed Muslims, but that's a long time ago and in far less numbers and not designed to be a genocide.
Most of the major genocides were carried out by people in the name of Muhammad.
Eliminated entire groups of people.
They don't exist anymore.
It's very hard to find a Zoroastrian.
They were all over the world.
A Numibian Christian, a Coptic.
language.
We could go on and on.
So pray for peace.
Pray that God enters the souls of those who seek to live their lives to eliminate groups of people or people and enlightens them with the love of God.
And I'm telling you, whether you are an agnostic or not, You're better off if God is active and present in the world or people believe that.
Well, we'll be back tomorrow.
20 to cover.
I've covered most of it, not all.
And we'll see what happens in Texas.
It'd be fun to see if they put all those i mean how long are they going to stay are they on vacation they're going to stay out of the state maybe it's good if they stay out of the state for good right i just don't get how they could possibly make this into a positive.
If I represent a district, right?
Yeah.
And I just disappear.
And I say, I'm not coming back.
Can't they declare my seat open?
Yeah, you're out of the state.
What is there, dude?
How long you have to be out of the state?
I was supposed to be out of the state for two years.
You don't come back.
I guess there's an election.
Do you have to wait for the next election?
They probably are not coming up for election.
This is an off year.
This is sort of a local election year.
Right.
Well, we'll see.
We'll follow it and we'll find out what the federal government's doing involved in it.
That's a good idea if it's justified.
I believe it is on assistance and aid.
Well, God bless America.
It's our purpose to bring to bear the principle of common sense and rational discussion to the issues of our day.
America was created at a time of great turmoil, tremendous disagreements, anger, hatred.
It was a book written in 1776 that guided much of the discipline of thinking that brought to us the discovery of our freedoms, of our God-given freedoms.
It was Thomas Paine's Common Sense, written in 1776, one of the first American bestsellers, in which Thomas Paine explained, by rational principles, the reason why these small colonies felt the necessity to separate from the Kingdom of Great Britain and the King of England.
He explained their inherent desire for liberty, for freedom, freedom of religion, freedom of speech, the ability to select the people who govern them.
And he explained it in ways that were understandable to all the people, not just the elite.
Because the desire for freedom is universal.
The desire for freedom adheres in the human mind and it is part of the human soul.
This is exactly the time we should consult our history.
Look at what we've done in the past.
and see if we can't use it to help us now.
We understand that our founders created the greatest country in the history of the world, the greatest democracy, the freest country, a country that has taken more people out of poverty than any country ever.
All of us are so fortunate to be Americans.
