I want to tell you about Go banking rates.
Starting point is 00:01:14 It has a study out, and it says that if you want to live comfortably in New York City, if you're single, not married, single, you need $185,000. in salary or investments or whatever, 185 to live comfortably. Whoa. So, you know, that's not an easy number to get. And even if you get the 185, you pay $34,000 in federal tax off that, at least. okay, 13,000. New York City local taxes, 7,000, and that'll go up if Mandami wins. So you're in for more than $60,000 in taxes, a third of your take home. Gone. Gone. And then every time you walk out on the street, you'll have to pay tax on everything you do.
Starting point is 00:02:33 So you've got to know that if you're going to live in New York City. It is, but it's not the most expensive. So 185, here are the most expensive. San Jose, California, $265,000 you need to live comfortably there. That's for the housing. San Francisco, $250,000. San Diego, 206,000. L.A., 195,000. All right, we told you in New York, 185,000. Long Beach, California, south of L.A., 180,000. Seattle, whoa, 180,000. Boston, 170,000. Oakland, and why would anybody want to
Starting point is 00:03:20 live in Oakland, 164,000. In D.C., 158,000. So if you want to move to someplace cheap, Detroit is the least expensive. You just need $66,000 to live company in Detroit. That's it. So New York 185,000 in Detroit, 65. Other inexpensive cities, Memphis, Wichita, Kansas, Baltimore, Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Oklahoma, El Paso, Indianapolis, Milwaukee, San Antonio. So out of all of those cities, I would probably say that Indianapolis and San Antonio would be your best bets. Stuff to do in Indy, big basketball team, and, you know, it's a fairly sophisticated downtown. San Antonio is, you know, make out well down there no state tax hot but a good downtown area the alamo the river walk
Starting point is 00:04:28 that kind of thing so mandami uh maintains his lead in the polls and his big thing is i'm going to bring down costs of living in new york city well he's not number one um because he'll do the income redistribution dance he'll raise taxes on everything he can raise taxes on and then people people will leave and then it'll go deeper and deeper into debt. And that'll spiral down. So in four years of Mandami, it's possible to city you go bankrupt. Because he's not going to have a tax revenue to do anything. He can't even pay the cops. And he doesn't even want to pay the cops. So that's another thing you've got to take into account. So the future is not bright for New York City. Even if Cuomo beats him, Cuomo is not the end all. That's for sure.
Starting point is 00:05:25 He's just not as bad as. So I don't know. But New York is resilient. I'm not giving up on it. Boy, oh boy, how did we get here. Thank you, de Blasio, right? That was the beginning of the skid. Today I want to start over the Tisha James, the Attorney General of New York State. So she says she's being selected by President Trump for vengeance. She is charged with real estate fraud. You know the story. Ms. James, of course, went after Donald Trump in a selective way, even campaigned on getting him before she was elected, A.G.
Starting point is 00:06:16 But now she's on the other side and doesn't like it. But here's the real rup. She's campaigning for Mamme Donnie, a guy who doesn't like the cops. Whoa! Whoa! All right. So Letitia James shows up Washington Heights, yesterday with all kinds of grievance. Roll it.
Starting point is 00:06:49 You see, I know what it feels like to be attacked for just doing your job. But I also know what it feels like to overcome adversity. And so I stand on solid rock. And I will not bow, I will not break, I will not bend, I will not capitulate, I will not give in, I will not give up. You come for me, you got to come to all of us. Well, you don't have to come from me.
Starting point is 00:07:45 And I want to be fair here. I'm not convicting Letitia James of anything. She deserves the presumption of innocence. And she might very well beat the rap. It's federal rap. Gay in Virginia. That's where it's going to be tried. She may be acquitted.
Starting point is 00:08:04 And if she is, I'm not going to have any beef with it. Because I don't know. I don't know what he did. It looks like she did. did something wrong, but for her to say that she's attacked for just doing a job, hello, I think we know someone else who falls into that category, Miss James, and you were the perpetrator. But even worse, you're stumping for ma'am Donnie. Roll the tape. I see the courage that is embodied in Zoran, and that's why I am supporting him.
Starting point is 00:08:46 He is a leader fighting for a better future for this city. And he like me knows what it's like to be attacked, to be called names, to be threatened, to be harassed, and each and every day he wakes up with this fire in my belly in his belly because he wants to build a better New York. Oh, give me a break, lady. You're the Attorney General. You're supposed to protect all New Yorkers. This man wants to cut a billion dollars from the police budget. What is wrong with you? bodies will pile up as the cops quit if he wins are you kidding me my god and this is what ideology does to a person she puts that above her job of protecting new yorkers there's no sane
Starting point is 00:10:02 person that feels mandani is going to protect the city of new york from violent criminals he doesn't want to he said it my god seen president trump does not want to man don't win the mayoral race I think we'd be better if Mr. Trump stayed out of it, but he doesn't want to stay out of it. He's a New Yorker, I understand. And here's his latest roll the tape. It comes through the White House, the funding for New York and for every place comes through the White House. And I'm very generous, and I was always very generous with New York, even when you had opposition
Starting point is 00:10:56 there, but I was always very generous. But I wouldn't be generous to a communist, a guy that's going to take the money and throw it. out the window. But there's not a much that Donald Trump can do to New York City, even if Mandani is elected because Congress allocates the money and the block grants. But Trump can give him a hard time. And you remember during COVID, Trump was very generous in New York, actually moved a ship into the harbor so that people could be attended to who had COVID on the ship.
Starting point is 00:11:30 It was never used by Governor Cuomo. Oh, by the way. Interesting, by the way. I'm sorry about that cliche, but it was never used. But Trump was generous. And he's, you know, as I said, and he's got a soft spot for the city. But he can give Mandami a hard time, and he will. Because Mandami hates Trump, and I don't know if Trump hates him, but certainly doesn't like him. All right, there's another story, and this stuff just never ends. And this is one of the reasons that if you vote for Mandani, you get more of it. So there's a judge in the city named Ralph Wolfe. All right, he's a liberal guy. And in-walks, 32-year-old, Dmitri Marshall, in front of this judge.
Starting point is 00:12:16 Marshall is arrested for slashing a human being. Okay? And in his rap sheet, he's got multiple arrests for assault, beating people up. He's a violent career criminal. He has served time. Dimitri Marshall. So he's standing there in front of Ralph Wolfe, the judge. And he's charged with slashing a 27-year-old man across the face for no reason.
Starting point is 00:12:49 No reason. Okay. What does Judge Wolfe do? well he lets him out no bail and then what happens marshal slashes another person very short time later so it's wolf who did it marshal is some sick guy who should never see the light of day again he's now being held without bail at rikers But you got two guys with lifelong scars on their faces and many other people, okay? And Wolf let him out, and it was seven hours later when he slashed somebody else in seven hours.
Starting point is 00:13:44 There's no way to prosecute Wolf. There's nothing you can do about him. That is really, that's what needs to be. addressed. Yeah, Marshall, give them 20 years. Get them out of society. 20 years is what this guy should get. But what about Wolf? The state legislature, they should have a mechanism to get these judges suspended at least because this is dangerous. And everybody knows it. I don't have to convince you. Yeah, you'll have some progressive loons. that object to me, saying what I'm saying, but they are marginal people.
Starting point is 00:14:30 They don't really matter. The regular folks who live in and around New York City know. And who signed that no bail law? That would be Andrew Cuomo, which complicates, of course, the more mayoral race. And I haven't seen a lot of remorse. Yeah, he said, maybe it wasn't a good idea. But is he? Nah, it doesn't seem to be that upset about it to me.
Starting point is 00:14:55 So anyway, look, my job is to tell you what's going on to report the truth. I am doing that. I think the state legislature in Albany is horrible. If Mandani wins, Koko will lose a year from now. I truly believe that, because New Yorkers will hold her partially responsible for Mamdani. This is a very serious one tonight. And I'm going to be very methodical in how I presented. to you. They don't want any misunderstandings or anything like that. So we're going to talk
Starting point is 00:15:33 about Charlie Kirk's legacy because it's under fire from the left. The progressives don't like him at all. And after Mr. Kirk was assassinated, Cardinal Timothy Dolan of New York said on Fox and Friends that he kind of admired Mr. Kirk. Roll that tape. The more I learned I thought, this guy's a modern day St. Paul. He was a missionary. He's an evangelist. He's a hero. He's one, I think, that knew what Jesus meant when he said the truth will set you free. And to do it, now I understand he was pretty blunt and he was pretty direct. He didn't try to avoid any controversy.
Starting point is 00:16:13 He didn't even try to avoid confrontation. The difference is the way, the mode, the style that he did it. Always with respect. All right, so that is the Cardinal's opinion. Enter Ben Jealous. He is a former leader of the N.A.C., very liberal man, okay? And he goes after Dolan. He says Charlie Kirk is a hater, a bad guy,
Starting point is 00:16:44 and that Dolan is wrong to give him any praise whatsoever. So he writes a column in the Chicago Sun Times this week. And I'm going to give you some of the highlights of the column. Quote, when a church leader blesses cruelty as holiness, he's not preaching Paul's gospel. He's sanctifying Sodom's sin. Even the gospel is most cherished and conservative pulpits, Matthew, leaves no room for such cruelty.
Starting point is 00:17:19 It's Jesus does not build walls. He breaks bread. He warns that all law and prophecy rests on the love of God, neighbor and he defines at love and action for I was hungry he gave me food I was a stranger you welcome me to preach that gospel while excusing violence against the stranger is not fidelity it's hypocrisy in holy robes unquote and then jealous goes on to say that Dolan needs to apologize to everybody now jealous is basing his column part of it anyway on the case of Silverio Gonzalez, on September 12th of this year, Mr. Gonzalez, an undocumented migrant in Chicago
Starting point is 00:18:06 and father of two, who had been here for a while in his country, was shot and killed by an ice agent in Franklin Park, Illinois. All right, he was shot and killed because the ice personnel say that he was using his car to try to hurt them. They were tempting to stop Gonzalez, who had a battery of vehicular arrests, basically alcohol-related stuff, and they wanted to talk to him. And Gonzalez didn't want to talk to the ICE agents.
Starting point is 00:18:49 So the ICE agents shot him dead. There is footage on this, camera footage, and it's unclear whether Gonzalez tried to hit anyone, but it was clear that he was not cooperating, and he was using his car to try to get away. Azales is from Mexico. He worked in a restaurant, and unfortunately when he was killed, he had just come from dropping his children off at school. So this has been a cause of the progressives
Starting point is 00:19:30 who don't want any enforcement by ICE at all. Jealous uses this as a cudgel against Dolan and Charlie Kirk. But we researched that. Okay. Kirk didn't address this case. All right. He didn't. So Silvio Gonzalez was not part of Kirk's resume as far as commentary is concerned. And certainly Dolan didn't know about this man. But Jealous somehow hooks him into Kirk. Now, We also found that Kirk did address a 2004 border incident. Remember, that was when Joe Biden was president in El Paso. When a large group of migrants broke through a border barrier overrunning ICE agents.
Starting point is 00:20:37 All right, you might remember this story. About 600 migrants overwhelmed ICE agents. Kirk did not like that Here's what he said Go Why do we have a military Why do we have men with guns If we can't use them
Starting point is 00:20:54 Having a country means Being able to draw a line on the ground And say This is our sovereign territory If you enter We have lethal force And we're willing to use it And you can escalate
Starting point is 00:21:09 You don't have to start with lethal force And by way I don't rejoice in this I don't want to have to use force but these people are criminals. They're invading. They made the decision to invade. They made the decision to do a pencer movement into the United States of America. They are bringing force upon themselves. So you can agree or disagree with Mr. Kirk's analysis. But it's certainly not unreasonable.
Starting point is 00:21:35 It doesn't violate any gospel that I know of. And I'm pretty versed in the gospels. 12 years in Catholic schools. So if a country is being seized by foreign nationals, which is exactly what happened under Biden's open border policy, countries are right to defend itself. Now, Kirk is being fairly inflammatory here with the lethal force and all that. But it's not, I want them hurt.
Starting point is 00:22:10 I want these poor people stumped. And it's not just jealous. This is the entire progressive movement doing this. Totally taking things out of context. Totally. Now, I've been doing commentary, what, 30 years now? There are ways to make your point without having the point misconstrued, even though I've had that dozens of time.
Starting point is 00:22:38 But I'm very, very, very, very methodical in the way I make my points. Kirk is 32 years old. You can't expect him to bring that kind of discipline. So Jealous just wanted to get Dolan because he doesn't like Dolan's opinion that Kirk was a positive force in the world. That's what this is all about. And once again, I'll remind you that Ben Jealous doesn't want any enforcement of immigration law at all. The ICE agents on the ground, they're not a charge of adjudicating who's a criminal and who isn't. How can they possibly do that?
Starting point is 00:23:21 Their job is to round up people who don't have credentials to be here. Take them in, detain them, and then their cases are reviewed. That's how it works. So they don't know. All right. Second one is on affirmative action. this is a little more troubling. So, Charlie Kirk made a statement about affirmative action and mentioned four black women.
Starting point is 00:23:59 If we would have said that Joy Reid and Michelle Obama and Sheila Jackson Lee and Katanji Brown Jackson were affirmative action picks, we would have been called the racist. But now they're coming out and they're saying it for us. They're coming out and they're saying, I'm only here because of affirmative action. Yeah, we know. You do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken really seriously.
Starting point is 00:24:26 You had to go steal a white person's slot to go be taken somewhat seriously. Now, I disagree with that last part. All right? You do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken seriously. you had to steal a white person's slot. That's wrong. But that doesn't negate Charlie Kirk's entire career or him as a person. That was a mistake, him saying that. And I would debate him
Starting point is 00:24:57 all day long. Here's why it was a mistake. He doesn't know about the brain processing power of the four ladies involved. They all admitted. Three out of the four admitted. Katanji Brown didn't say anything about affirmative action, the Supreme Court Justice. So he was wrong. Three of them, Sheila Jackson Lee, Joy Reid, Michelle Obama, all said they were helped by affirmative action. Okay. But as far as assessing their intellectual capabilities, Charlie Kirk can't do that.
Starting point is 00:25:30 He doesn't know them. He can observe them. Now, I think Joy Reed is a racist myself. and that means that she sees everything in skin color prism. And she doesn't really like white men. I think that's demonstrable. Sheila Jackson Lee, not as extreme as Reed, but in that zone. She's a congresswoman, former congresswoman from Texas.
Starting point is 00:25:57 Michelle Obama, you know, she treated my daughter very well, Michelle Obama. And I think Michelle Obama is a smart woman. I do. Now, she might have been helped by affirmative action. She says she was in her book. I'll believe her. But I don't think she's a dumb woman. I don't think she took any white person slot.
Starting point is 00:26:22 So I debated Kirk on that. But again, you have to look at the totality of a person because you could cherry pick any human being and make them look like a hypocrite or a hater or anybody you can do it to. It's wrong. So Dolan titled his opinion that Charlie Kirk spread the word of Christianity, which he did in a positive way. Jealous is entitled to his opinion that Kirk was a destructive force for him. However, Jealous did not honestly portray what really happened with Kirk. And Kirk himself, some of the things he do are good, some not so good.
Starting point is 00:27:11 I think that describes every human being. Thank you for listening to Looking Out for You. Remember to subscribe to my podcast feed.
