Welcome to the podcast. Last day before Thanksgiving week, we go into a lot of the stuff
around the vote fraud allegations by the president's campaign and the press conference yesterday
with Sidney Powell and Rudy Giuliani. What can we take from that? How should we understand it?
How should we digest that information? We get into that today. Also talk to Pat Gray and Bill
Riley about their take on it as well. And then in an hour three, Sidney Powell herself, the attorney
for the president who's working on this case, joins us to explain her side of this and how all
this is going to play out over the next couple of weeks. Make sure to subscribe to BlazeTV

Here's the podcast.
You're listening to the best of the...
Mr. Bill O'Reilly from Bill O'Reilly.com and the author of Killing Crazy Horse.
Bill O'Reilly, did you see the press conference yesterday?
Okay, O'Reilly.
So tell me what...
So tell me what you thought.
Conference Giuliani and Sydney.
What's her last name again?
Sidney Powell.
Sidney Powell.
She's going to be on with us next hour.
Oh, good.
But go ahead.
They believe what they're saying.
They're sincere.
They're not trying to fake anybody out.
This point, do you have the predictable?
To me, the question is, do you have any hope that this election will be stayed by the Supreme Court?
because that's the only way it could turn around.
There's only one way, one path, Supreme Court of the United States.
Do you have any hope?
Now, I guess, and then my follow-up question would be, present to the court,
where they would take this extraordinary unprecedented action never before happened in the United States.
What do you have that would, and then if she can't answer the question,
which I don't believe she'll be able to.
It's over.
I'm a simple man back to know that.
I think that's why you identify with me,
because you're very simple.
I'm simple.
I want to see.
All right.
So, Bill, hear me out.
I talked to Alan Dershowitz.
And Alan said, he thought this was unlikely.
He said, but he thought their path would be,
if you could get the states,
And the Supreme Court to say there's enough evidence here to deeply question these results because of the voting machines and everything else.
In these particular states, if you can knock those states out from certifying, then if you can bring him down to even 269, anything under 270, the Supreme Court doesn't have to call the election.
the Supreme Court just will have to say there's enough fire here that we see that this needs to be investigated
and they can say yes, Your Honor, but the time is up.
And if they just get a few states to not to lose the ability to certify, then it goes to the house.
it's not going to happen that that's alan dershowitz yeah it's impossible
it's happened three times it's happened three times before no no it's impossible this year
okay so georgia is off the board they had their recount
Biden won republican run state not going to do anymore
Pennsylvania never in a million years are they going to admit to the fraud that I did
I believe took place.
I, me, I believe it.
But they're not going to admit it, all right?
Neither is Michigan with Whitmer.
Neither is Wisconsin with Edwards.
No, but, wait, wait, wait.
But the point is, is they're going to bring the case to the Supreme Court and say,
here's the evidence that we have, and it takes time to build this case,
but here's the overwhelming evidence that it.
it appears hundreds of thousands and they said what was it eight million votes if they can show
that there is there's gaining evidence here that we need to look into those states the supreme
court can override those states the governors won't have anything to say with it the court can't
override the states it can issue to stay okay and it can say right right right stop all right
Right. Right. Correct. Beck.
Theoretically, what you said is proper.
Sure. But with all due respect,
Trump administration hasn't presented. One would indicate they have this amount of evidence
that would compel the Supreme Court.
Here's what people need to understand, Beck. And I'm so happy you've had me on today.
Here's what they need to understand.
The judiciary is not an investigative agency.
So the Supreme Court doesn't investigate.
All right?
No judge investigates.
They sit there in their chair, and I think they have the chairs that you advertised.
They sit there and they look at what is presented to them.
In a case like this, where if the Supreme Court did you, there would be violence in the streets.
a lot of it.
Yes.
They know that.
They're human being.
So they know that there has to be overwhelming evidence.
Not just some.
Correct.
Not just.
No, I know.
Well, it happened here, but it's not at the level where it would overturn 100,000.
I know.
But Bill, if you listen to them, I'm saying that we will know in three weeks because they'll either file that or not.
and but if you know they said they have overwhelming evidence they have the evidence
without anything no no no i know i know um but we'll know in three weeks if they do have
overwhelming yeah they can't wait three weeks for what to do it they have to do it why the week after
thanksgiving all right which is two weeks and they have to do it but you have nine supreme
This is fine.
All right, you have nine Supreme Court justices.
Right now, as we speak, out of the nine, we'll never under any circumslection.
All right?
Yes.
So that means...
Is that count...
Roberts.
It's not counting, John.
It is counting Roberts.
Roberts will never do it.
So the three liberals, the Roberts will, no matter what you do,
Jesus could come in and say, you know, look, I'm God, and I saw the chief.
cheating, they're not going to do it.
Right. I know.
That means that all five of the others,
500 to 1, what I'm trying to do
to everybody, and I know the level of anger
that is in play in this country
on both sides, but, and I do believe
that there was fraud in the election.
I don't see how mathematically you go from a 600,000
vote lead in Pennsylvania to losing
by 60,000.
I'd like to see analytics on that,
all right? And I suggested
to the Trump administration that they do
analytics about the odds
of that happening. Go ahead.
Okay, so hang on just a second.
There is a mathematician,
Yale and
Princeton-trained
mathematician who came out
and did an analysis
of it. He says that
looking at the collected
data and
interviews that he did, Stephen Miller is his name, he is a mathematics expert. He said that the number of
ballots that were either requested by someone other than the registered Republican or requested
and not returned, or sorry, or questioned and returned but not counted, is anywhere between
between 89,397 to 98,801.
He's put this in a sworn statement.
He said there was roughly 165,000 ballots requested in the names of GOP voters that have not been counted.
He said the problem is, is that he believes that the ballots are not only not counted,
but probably requested fraudulently.
And he said, almost surely the number of ballots requested by someone other than the registered
Republican is between 37,001 and 58,914.
And almost surely the number of ballots requested by legitimately registered Republicans
and returned, but not counted, is in the range of 38, 910.
and 56,483.
Which is pretty staggering.
Pennsylvania.
Pennsylvania?
Pennsylvania.
But that still wouldn't be enough to override the 60,000 vote plurality that Biden has.
No.
Yes, it would.
It's 100,000.
What I'm saying to you is this.
That guy's signs an affidavit.
That's what he came up with.
The other side will get an assort.
analytics person to say the exact opposite.
So the Supreme Court
would be looking at, he said,
she said, and he'll throw it out.
What I'd like to see is
the Trump administration,
rather than running around
and analyze
the areas that they feel it was
fraud into the certainty,
this is 2%
this could have happened,
5%, 30%,
whatever it may be. That's going to
convince Americans.
See, what we're doing now is Donald Trump as a perfect right, and everybody should understand that,
to not concede, I wouldn't if I were him.
I would never concede if I were him.
Do the orderly transition.
I would brief Biden on important matters, but I wouldn't concede.
And he has the right to protect all Americans from fraudulent elections.
So he's doing what he should do.
I mean, you'll never hear that.
But on the other hand, he's not going to prevail.
He set himself up for another run three years from now by getting an overwhelming amount of evidence to say,
out of my second term, I'm coming back, and I am going to win, back I know.
The only president had two non-consecutive terms.
And here's the evidence.
But right now, it's too complicated for most Americans.
It's a he said, she said in many cases.
and I don't believe the Supreme Court is going to do anything at this level.
Nothing.
Unless...
So let me just...
This Powell, today on the Glenn Beck radio program,
can put forth one piece of stunning information.
That's a fact.
I don't think she...
No, I don't think she will, and I'll tell you why in a second,
but first let me tell you this, Bill.
Get behind me, Satan.
Get behind me.
I'm not listening to your crap today on that.
This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.
A member of President Trump's legal team, author of Conviction Machine,
her name is Sidney Powell, a very respected prosecutor from, I believe, the 5th District.
I want to welcome her to the show in Sydney.
I just want to remind you if nobody has that we're on a delay because of my remote location.
and so we, I'll try not to talk over you.
I don't mean any disrespect if it happens,
but we're on such a massive delay that it's difficult.
Thank you for coming on the show.
Oh, my pleasure, and I understand the delay issue, no problem.
Okay.
So you went through absolute hell with General Flynn for three years,
and you were facing the same kind of criticism that you are now,
and in the end, we find out that what you were defending and who you were defending was absolutely true.
Trump has kept his promises to be the guy who is the warrior for the American people.
He's been almost entirely alone in that effort, and in my point of view, he has earned the trust, at least from me,
and I think trust from all of his voters to allow you to play this game the way you see fit to, to, you know, talk to the press or not talk to the press.
Your job is to win a court case.
Can you tell us when this is going to be filed and where it's going to be tried?
No, I can't right now.
We're going to have to file several lawsuits.
It's going to be in all the swing states.
we are still gathering massive amounts of evidence to the point we haven't even had time to process all of it
people are filing or drafting affidavits for us right and left patriotic americans are coming forward
from every corner of the country and some people even internationally they are fed up with the
corruption and they want to clean up the system and stop this election rigging that has gone on
all around the world for the profit of all kinds of tyrants and global interests that have
just lined their pockets while they've raped their own countries and treated their people
horribly. We know it's happened in many countries in Latin America. It was exported to
Argentina. I think it was exported to Mongolia. Probably most every country around the world now
has been infected with this sort of election rigging that's been made available by Dominion and Smartmatic.
And other companies as well have used the same sort of code in their machines that would allow the same results to be controlled.
Okay, so let's talk about Smartmatic and Dominion.
You laid out the connections or affiliations with Venezuela.
the press is saying that didn't happen you talked about germans counting our votes the press has said that didn't happen
can you give us any place to even look for the truth what what you you say one thing
everybody online and believe me we were just demonetized by facebook because we carried your
press conference without comment
We carried it and we were demonetized for it.
So I can't go to any source to get the truth online.
How can we find these things?
Well, we will start putting documents online and sending them to people like you as soon as we possibly can.
I would hope that we could start that by this weekend.
And, I mean, we've just been taking in information not just through a fire hose.
I mean, it started through a fire hose, and then it became a tsunami.
And some people, of course, don't want their names disclosed.
They have all kinds of fears.
We have people around the country with security now that they've never had before just because they dared to tell the truth.
It might look at the fact that both Dominion offices have shut down and moved all of a sudden.
in Toronto where they shared office space with the Soros entity,
and also in Denver,
all of a sudden they just shuddered and moved.
Their employees have been taking their name off LinkedIn
and eliminating any affiliation with either company.
There are over 100 of those that have happened.
I mean, we've unearthed a global criminal conspiracy
that is just mind-blowing, and we've only scratched a tip of the iceberg.
The servers at SIDL in Germany were confiscated the other day.
I am hearing it was our forces that got those servers.
So I think the government is now working on an investigation of what really happened,
but we're getting in evidence also that there were lines into the servers
from four foreign countries, all extremely adverse to the interests of the United States.
But wouldn't they have counted those here first and then just uploaded them to the cloud?
Yeah, on those servers, maybe, perhaps in Germany.
Right. There were multiple ways of doing the alterations of the votes.
The person sitting at the data center where their votes are coming in,
can do it, can watch them real time and change things.
They can put an algorithm on the system across the board that does the initial shifting.
And then in each data collection point, which is best we can tell for the major alterations
were the democratic control politically corrupt strongholds in the country, cities like Detroit and Philadelphia,
for example, in Atlanta.
by the spikes in the data, the statistical experts can, and mathematical experts can tell you exactly when anomalies occurred that are statistically impossible.
And we found places where, for example, something like 384,450 votes were added for Biden, while a third of that amount were added for Trump, and those exact same numbers were replicated 20 minutes later.
so i talked to a i talked to a silicon valley expert on monday another time we were demonetized
this week and i asked him i said can you tell me the odds of of these kinds of things happening
he said glen when i reported back to me he said i didn't have to go further than the user manual
for dominion he said on page 456 57 and eight he said all of these things are not
not design flaws, they're designed.
And it says in the manual that the risk is very high.
So are we grabbing the software from these precincts?
Is there any record that we should be seizing?
Yes, the government, frankly, should be seizing every single machine.
There should have been search warrants run already on Dominion.
offices and operations centers, why none of that has been done is beyond my comprehension
other than the CIA or some other three-letter agency has known for a long time that this
was going on and behind a lot of it, if not facilitating and operating a lot of it. I don't know.
But I do know this. It has defied the will of the American people and people around the
world who have thought they were legitimately voting and their vote was being counted for the
candidate of their choice when it turns out it wasn't their choice at all. And I can't even express
how angry this makes me from whatever the involvement of our government is to its failure to do
anything now, to its promotion of it around the world or turning a blind eye, whatever it is.
It's absolutely hideous and appalling and un-American, and contrary to everything our founders set this country up to be.
Well, we know that Soros is involved in some countries with these people and, quite honestly, the State Department doing these things.
So let me ask you, we've reached out to the Department of Homeland Security.
We've reached out to states.
we do not get a response from anybody.
We've asked these questions.
Have you, has your legal team investigated or has, have you asked for subpoenas in court to be able to seize these things?
So far, what the campaign has been filing have been largely election challenges.
And they don't, as far as I know, I'm not an election law lawyer for start.
But my understanding is there have not been any process yet pursuant to which they could issue subpoenas.
There are different entities that have secured the machines to protect them at our request.
I mean, we're just civil lawyers trying to do the right thing here when the government has ignored it or helped it along for at least two decades.
I mean, we know we have a firsthand totally credible witness who has,
It's given us a lengthy affidavit.
He was sitting at Hugo Chavez right hand from the inception of this machine and equipment and operation through its execution for years.
He's been in the control room where he saw it happen.
Their own book, their own manual, as you say, lists all these things as features.
You can take votes and put them in a file called an adjudicative file.
and then just throw it away.
So you can call out all the Trump votes you want,
put them in that file and put it in the trash bin.
It is remarkable what they have designed.
It's so crooked.
Let me go back to what something Mayor Giuliani said.
He said,
we have proof of more than double the amount of votes to overturn the election.
Do you know, is this from affidavits or is there evidence that the team has
dug up that confirms what the witnesses have said?
It's a combination of things.
It's the data that we've been able to get from certain precincts.
That's another thing.
We need the granular data in lots of places, and it takes, frankly, a bit of time and
effort to go through the data and do the analysis.
It's not something that can be done in five minutes.
We've talked to probably over 500 or maybe even 1,000 witnesses by now.
I don't even know what our affidavit count is.
Rudy has one set, and I have another, and then we share them with each other.
So we haven't even had time to read all the affidavits that our lawyers have collected.
So that's another concern that I...
We're all working 20 hours a day.
I know, I know.
And I know the cancel culture, and I know the fear that is involved with many attorneys,
and I quite frankly think there is a lot of conservative,
a big name,
conservative attorneys out there that are just spineless for not stepping to the plate right now.
But I understand what you're going through,
which brings me to a fear that I have that,
I mean,
you're building the most important case.
If half or 25% of what you guys said yesterday turns out to be true,
this is the biggest crime in American history.
And you don't put that together in two weeks.
Do you have time to make this?
Yeah, in history.
Do you have time to do this?
I think we can get it done.
In fact, we already have collected more evidence
than probably half the prison population is in prison for right now.
it's just a matter of tying it together in a way that's digestible.
And we're in the process of doing that as we speak.
And I'm hoping we get something filed by next week that starts outlining and proving the overall fraud.
But I will tell you, too, that the standard of proof people are expecting is more than would be necessary for a criminal conviction, which is absolutely ridiculous.
as our standard of proof is only preponderance of the evidence.
And on top of that, the mountain of evidence we have to deal with is, and we've got, of course,
all the media interests against us, all the global interest against us, all the social media
companies against us, because they're all owned and controlled by foreign money.
There are trillions of dollars of wealth and corruption at issue against our little team
in this effort. Every despot, every tyrant around the world who has been elected by this system,
I'm sure it's putting all his or her resources and connections and everything else against us.
We've had technology issues. We know that our people are blowing up my phone all the time.
Everybody out there on the wrong side of truth and justice is attacking us in one form or another.
but we're going to keep going and we are going to prove it.
Sidney, I know a fraction of what the powers that be can do to destroy people.
And we pray for you and we pray for the team.
I know millions of Americans are just for your protection and for guidance.
Stations, I'm not going to break for the commercial here.
I'm going to move that.
I just want to take a 10 second station ID and then back with Sidney Powell.
Oh, she has to go.
Okay, Sydney, thank you very much.
I appreciate your time.
Thank you.
Please send us the information.
When you get everything prepared, please let us know and send them to us because we want to dig in ourselves and find the truth.
Thank you.
Yes, I will try to get you a package together sooner than later.
Thank you.
Appreciate it.
God bless.
This is the best of the Glenn Beck program, and don't forget, rate us on iTunes.
I want to give you a couple of stories here that are amazing.
Three North Dakota sheriffs will not enforce the governor of North Dakota's new COVID mandates.
They say it's unconstitutional.
They're not going to do it.
in Orange County, the sheriff there will not enforce the coronavirus only violations during curfew.
He says unconstitutional, not going to do it.
We also have somebody who's taking a beating from everybody's favorite governor, Cuomo.
It says he's not going to do it.
And Cuomo came out and said he's arrogant and out of control.
He said he won't enforce Cuomo's Thanksgiving limit.
His name is Richard G.
Geradino.
He is the sheriff of Fulton County, New York.
Richard, how are you?
I'm doing great.
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to be on, Glenn.
I listen to you frequently.
What I appreciate most shows only give you two or three minutes,
and you really can't have an in-depth constitutional discussion,
and you allowing me to do that, I think, is a big service,
service to the community.
Well, you just ate 30 seconds of your two minutes.
I'm not kidding.
So tell me, because this is really important to me.
I don't think people understand that sheriffs do not answer to the governor.
They don't answer to any agency.
You don't answer to the president.
You answer to the Constitution and the people, correct?
Correct.
The governor is the only one who can remove a sheriff.
or the voters at an election.
And the governor can only do it if there's a crime or if there's malfeasance in office.
But we both take an oath to the Constitution.
So I'm not against the governor.
I'm for the Constitution, Glenn.
Correct, correct.
So tell me about his Thanksgiving limit and what's happening in New York and why you're standing against it.
Well, first of all, it's through an executive order.
And our legislature abdicated their responsibility.
months ago when they turned everything over to the governor, and that allows him to issue
edicts or what we call executive orders. I have to explain what he can do by the Constitution
first. He can issue an executive order saying you have to have a face mask on in a store or
restaurant or bar. You can have to close at 10 o'clock. The table's got to be this or that. That's
perfectly constitutional because he controls all the administrative agencies, state liquor authority.
and so that's fine. That's why you can't take issue with him saying, close your store at this time, keep people apart.
But when he tells people what they can and can't do in the privacy of their own home, there's a heightened constitutional balancing act.
And I have my obligations to the Constitution, and there's no way to enforce this. It's not like, he keeps saying it's a law, but a law has a penalty.
So like if you're in a bar and you stay open past 10, they can find you.
or they can find if your waitresses aren't wearing masks.
There's no penalty for an executive order about how many people you invite.
And isn't an executive order, a law goes through the legislature and the governor signs it.
That's how, I mean, I just know because I was a bill on Capitol Hill when I was a kid,
and that's the way it works.
It becomes a law once it goes through the proper channels.
So how do executive orders work when they want to enforce them?
Well, here's, again, you're 100% right, and most of us in second or third grade were taught.
The legislature passes the bill.
The governor either signs or vetoes the bill.
If he signs it, it's a law.
Basic common constitutional law.
How he can exercise an executive order is he controls the state liquor authority and, say, the health department, right?
You get a license as a business from the health department.
You've got to comply with the restaurant rules and from the state liquor authority for a bar.
So they're sanctions and they can have administrative action against you.
So they can close a bar and find you because you have a license from the state.
You don't need a license to live in your house.
You know what I mean?
So when you get to the executive order that goes into somebody's home, then you run into a problem.
So I don't want to get too deep into the Fourth, Fifth, and Fourteenth Amendment.
but I can tell you this.
I've been contacted from around this country
and around my own state
saying, thank you for standing up,
thank you for speaking up.
And I'll tell you, a lot of sheriffs and law enforcement
who said, look, we can't execute
the executive order.
But the reason they give properly so
is we just don't have the manpower.
There's no sanction attached,
and we're not going to go to somebody's house.
It's really not practical.
And the fact that he ordered it
is what put a lot of people's backup in the air,
you know,
got their spine out of line.
So, you're just such an amazing guy.
Can I, can you just fill in some blanks and just, you went to law school, right?
So you graduated, you were an attorney, right?
Well, I went to law school, and Andrew Cuomo was two years ahead of me at the same law school.
He probably doesn't know who I was.
But he had a reputation even in law school of being a hard charge, especially on the basketball court,
which he's carried throughout his career.
So he doesn't know me.
I was just a little piddly sheriff.
But I went to law school, graduated with the Nassau County DA's office.
Then I became a district attorney in upstate New York.
Uh-huh.
And then a county court judge.
The county court judge.
Can you not hold down a job or how did you get to?
I mean, you accomplished more in your first 35 years of life than most people
do in a lifetime.
It's called a severe case of attention
deficit disorder, but I will
know both me and the governor
have, you know, he's held three jobs,
the secretary of HUD, and he's
been the attorney general and the governor.
I mean, he's got a great career path,
and I've had three jobs. Might have all been
on the local level, but I'm very pleased
where I live and work. People have been
100%, not 100%, most
people have been supportive of what I'm doing for them as a
sheriff and as a judge in DA in the past.
I just want to just throw these things out.
You were an instructor of trial tactics at Albany Law School.
You have been on the board of the Chamber of Commerce.
You've been a firefighter for 22 years.
And now you're also sheriff.
I mean, it's an impressive resume.
Tell me about the mood of the community in New York, where you are in Fulton County.
Well, the mood in Fulton County is the,
they kind of agree with my statement that they're adults.
They've listened for eight months about the precautions.
Most people are taking precautions.
We're a very low infection rate county in the state.
The last I checked, we were 1.3%, which is very low.
People take it serious here.
They have loved ones.
My mother's in a nursing home, so I didn't get the sear for six months except through a window.
We had 28 deaths in our county, and we have 55,000 people.
But the 28 deaths were mostly,
as a result of COVID in a private nursing home that had visiting nurses from New York City.
And I'm not blaming them.
I'm just saying that our numbers come from a nursing home.
You know, the only thing you forgot, and it's not on my resume,
sat together at a judge's dinner, and I gave him a ride to the airport.
He probably wouldn't remember me, but it was in Albany County that was 20 years ago.
So next time he's on, tell him the crazy judge at the time says hi.
Yeah.
Okay, I will.
Um, the, uh, the, the problem that we have in America, I think, is that people who are in authority are just shutting everybody down and not allowing even questions, honest questions to be asked.
It's just, that's the way it is and you're stupid or you're, uh, you know, you're a rebel or you just want everybody to die.
and I think that's what's causing a lot of the angst in America.
I think a lot of people are exactly how you describe them.
They don't want to kill people.
They are reasonable.
They can handle themselves.
Just treat me like an adult, not like a seven-year-old.
Two comments on that.
Most of the people who've been contacted from throughout this country, it's amazing what a great country have.
I've been, I had a message from one woman who said she hopes that I understand that the
blood of all those who die in Fulton County after Thanksgiving is on my hands. And when I go to
the emergency room with COVID, she hopes the nurses are busy working on the other people I
tried to kill and then I die a horrible death. Kind of nice lady, obviously. So, and she left
a message. But I've also had so many strong Americans say, thank you. Thank you. Common sense,
speaking up. And listen, no one doubts the deadliness of COVID. We know that's the high-risk people,
the elderly, my mom's in a nursing home, 90 years old. She's at high risk. Those would die.
diabetes, I have diabetes.
Those who are overweight, you know, we know the high-risk categories.
We know that wearing masks, social distancing, disinfecting, we know that that reduces deaths and things.
But Dr. Fauci's told us since March that we're going to have a rise in cases in the fall in the winter.
It's inevitably going to happen.
He said it over and over.
It's going to spike because of several factors or inside.
There's, you know, the viralness of it is growing.
So he's already told us that.
So whether I tell people, enjoy your Thanksgiving dinner,
anxiety of wondering if the police are going to come to the house.
And that's the common theme of this.
It's like, and you and I are both constitutionalists,
but one thing, a lady who put it to me this yesterday,
she says, you know what, would you stop talking like a lawyer and a judge?
She says, you keep talking about Fourth Amendment, Fifth Amendment,
14th Amendment, people don't understand or need to know that.
And you know what I realize?
She's right.
You know, the people who call me, listen, the people call me, say, hey, I don't know what, I don't know what section of the bill of rights it is, but there's just something inherently wrong with coming into my house and counting heads on who's eating turkey. And on a side note, along with that, they say to me that, how can he do this? What's the fine? How it started was a week and a half ago, a man came up to me at a local, at Stewart's a local shop and said, hey, you know, my wife and I are arguing about going our son's house. Well, there's 14 people going, we don't want to get a ticket or a fine.
And so that just set me off.
You know, and I said, sir, it was a veteran.
I said, you served our country.
You should be able to have it.
And I just said, but if you guys are not well and it's risky, don't go.
But I got to tell you another funny story, and this one I think is probably the funny.
Real quick.
I'll make it quick.
Okay.
Lady says to me, what would your father think of doing this, you know, a bucking the governor?
I said, my father was a pediatrician for 50 years.
He would say, why don't you go to Matilda Cuomo, sit down with Andrew, stop being a knucklehead,
stop being a Sicilian.
and you're both assillions, have a nice spaghetti dinner,
and decide how you can both work together to better this country and save more people.
And that's what my dad would say.
Yeah, and that's not going to happen.
Richard Gerdino, thank you so much.
God bless you.
Thank you.
And thanks for being a sheriff that understands and protects the Constitution.
