Starting point is 00:00:00 You're going to have the state in New York, for example, sit there and say sanctuary city. We're going to help all the legal migrants. We're going to take your taxpayer dollars. And we're going to use it to fight these battles in court. And you know who's not liking this? Voters. I mean, don't forget, guys, Donald Trump was elected for a reason. He was elected actually for two reasons.
Starting point is 00:00:23 One was immigration. And the other was the economy. And so looking at his track record, So far, so good, right? You talk about winning. What a week. I mean, last night, we got news of the China trade deal that's happening.
Starting point is 00:00:37 And now today, this one, on the heels of what happened with Iran, we're talking winning, winning, winning, winning, winning. I'm like, I can't keep up. I was joking that as I was coming to air and it took us a little longer because the news was coming in
Starting point is 00:00:48 and out of Canada with the tariffs, et cetera, and of course the Supreme Court stuff and the interpretation of all of this. I'm like, we're going to get on the air because who knows what's coming next, right? Like it's boom, boom, boom, boom. And it's amazing to see. I mean, truly, I can tell you, like,
Starting point is 00:01:04 I've been a journalist for a long time. I've never seen anything like this. It is fast and furious, and he's got a lot of winds. The sail, you know, the wind is right at the back of him right now. So he's sailing forward. Letitia James, however, is not. These are the most recent polls from Sienna College, and you can see that Letitia James is looking really kind of dicey there.
Starting point is 00:01:24 She's looking 60 to 40. I mean, unfavorable, and they don't know versus favorable there in the state of New York. The only people that like her are some of the lefties in New York City, you know, the ones that voted for the socialist communist guy who everybody's freaking out of over right about now. Senator Chuck Schumer, he's pretty vulnerable too, as is Representative Hakeem Jeffries, but, you know, Letitia is actually more vulnerable
Starting point is 00:01:48 than both of them, because when you add all that up, 60% are not sure that they're going to vote for her. So, again, I would just remind you that people voted for Donald Trump for a reason in New York City is very peculiar and very much its own little island, you know, Manhattan being the center of it. And they have gone extremely left, extremely progressive. We'll see what happens. I actually think Eric Adams is going to have a really good shot there as mayor in New York City
Starting point is 00:02:13 because this is just too much. But think about what's happening in the rest of the state. So the rest of the state is very different. I know this, my husband's actually from the Buffalo area, and so we spent a lot of time there in Western New York. And I'm like, wow, look at all the Trump signs. They're like, they're everywhere, right? And there's a lot of support for Donald Trump
Starting point is 00:02:31 when you get outside of New York City. Well, Leticia James is trying to throw her weight around, quite literally, in a lot of these places, and she's now trying to probe local cops, including in Western New York, saying, hey, you know what, you're in trouble. If you work with the Trump administration, if you work with ICE, you're going to be in trouble.
Starting point is 00:02:53 That doesn't sit well with the rest of the voters. No, it doesn't. And so this is why she's kind of losing her grip, and I suspect she's got a real shot of getting voted out, along with Kathy Hochel. I mean, she's in the meantime got other problems, let's face it. I mean, she's got real, real problems over the allegations of her mortgage situation.
Starting point is 00:03:13 And right now, I don't know if she's even going to have the money to be able to fight this. The GOP is saying you don't have access to the $10 million. This is really also a very bad thing for Letitia James, vis-vis the voters, because it doesn't sit well when they find out that you're used, using the $10 million of their taxpayer dollars to pay off your expensive lawyers like Abby Lull, who represented Hunter Biden.
Starting point is 00:03:36 That doesn't work. The voters are angry. So I would just say, I don't know, you know, maybe at some point she might actually have to sell her stuff, maybe liquidate some of those assets, a nice little house in Richmond, Virginia. How much do you think that one's worth? Norfolk, Virginia. How much might that one be worth?
Starting point is 00:03:59 I wonder. Anyway, she might have to actually liquidate some of her assets in order to pay for her expensive lawyers because the GOP's like, you're not going to have this $10 million. And so it's funny. Like, it's like poetic, right? What goes around comes around? Letitia, you know, maybe you should have thought
Starting point is 00:04:15 a little more carefully through that mortgage application before you went after Donald Trump for something that clearly you must have a guilty conscience of. I mean, if these allegations are true, who! Four days after a judge, judge ordered Donald Trump to pay $355 million for a decade of fraud. New York Attorney General Letitia James says she's prepared to do everything she can to make sure the former president pays his fine, including she told us, seizing the buildings that bear his name.
Starting point is 00:04:45 If he does not have funds to pay off the judgment, then we will seek, you know, judgment enforcement mechanisms in court, and we will ask the judge to seize his assets. poetic you get it right because you wonder if she's going to have to actually nobody's going to be seizing her assets necessarily at least not yet but she's going to have to sell something like i said that virginia place i'm not sure how much she's going to get enough to pay for the legal bills i doubt it anyway if she can't she's looking at what 30 years up to 30 years in prison because she may have violated 18 u sc 10 14 giving false statements to obtain a federally insured loan 18 u.sc 1st 1001 false statements to the U.S. government.
Starting point is 00:05:31 Ooh, Letitia, this is not looking good. It's really, really not looking good. You know, she's definitely got problems ahead. So she is not going to be able to fight everything the way that she had anticipated as a result of the Supreme Court's decision earlier today. She's dealing with her own internal struggles there in New York, given that the rest of the state really has no use for her. She is not on board with them.
Starting point is 00:05:57 meanwhile she's trying to use up all their money to pay for her legal bills while she simultaneously fights this thing, which is looking increasingly problematic as we scale back what's really going on with these allegations. She says she's perfectly innocent. It's just a typo. Like, okay, aren't you a lawyer? Like, aren't she supposed to know better? Maybe? You should be held to a little bit of a higher standard?
