The far left progressives, the radical socialists are very, very happy because Zoran Mamdani won the Democratic primary in New York City. This is some kind of guy. Let me write him down for you. So he's born in Kampala, Uganda. Parents are of Indian descent. He moves to South Africa at age five. Then he moves to New York City at age seven.
He was a naturalized citizen in 2018, goes to Bronx High School, Bowdoin College in Maine, and he's been in the State Assembly for three terms. He's only 33 years old. So this guy is moving up fast. Ma'am Donnie. And he is about as radical a person as I have ever seen running for high office in this country.
He is a socialist, self-proclaimed. He wants free everything for poor people, wants to raise a corporate tax by four points in New York City, and the corporate tax is seven and a quarter now. That means all businesses will leave. Wants $30 an hour wages. Hello, bodegas. How are you going to do that?
So it's going to be chaos. And then quality of life, he wants to end police overtime. This is what this guy wants. In addition, he hates Trump, Israel, all of that. Roll the tape.
let me ask you you know if if you were the mayor and you see what's going on in la how would you handle that problem if there was protesters they were you know breaking stuff looting smashing police cars vandalizing things uh of course trump sending the troops uh how would you handle that if you were mayor of new york city and that actually happened here i think first and foremost you call it what it is it's authoritarianism this is the trump administration looking to arrest
Enough migrants that they can say they fulfilled their campaign promise of building the single largest deportation force in American history. And too often we think about it as just an attack on immigrants. It's an attack on the fabric of this country. He's an open border guy. I forgot to mention that. Everybody in and then he'll pay for all their bills. You know, I feel like I'm in a twilight zone here. I think Rod Serling is somewhere in this room.
This is just crazy. But it's not just happened in New York. How about this Brandon Johnson, the socialist in Chicago? Chicago Tribune actually wrote an editorial to the people of New York saying, hey, don't vote for this guy Zoran because you'll get Brandon Johnson and he's ruining Chicago. We had London Breed ruin San Francisco. Got the crazy mayor of L.A. And I'm going to run it all down for you. Okay, so...
Again, only 22% of eligible voters went to the, and it was 100 degrees yesterday, went to the polls and Zoran won. So he's not a lock for November. So Cuomo is the worst candidate in the world. Curtis Sliwe, Republican. Mayor Adams is going to run as an independent. There's going to be a lot of swirl. Now, why do people vote for a guy like this?
And this is the most controversial thing you'll hear probably this week. But I got to tell you the truth. It's my job. So there are millions of people in this country who don't want to compete. Some of them can't compete. They're mentally disabled or physically disabled. They're abused as children to an extent that they can't even function. We understand that. And beginning with Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the president, safety nets were provided for those people. But there are other people
many of whom have come here from other countries who just said, look, I can't compete in the capitalist system. I can't. I can't speak well. I don't read well. I don't have a lot of skills. I don't really care to develop them or get educated. You know, I want to have a life where everything is provided for me. Well, that is what socialism and communism is. They provide everything.
for people and they don't there's no standard of providing if you desperately need it provide for everybody so mandami go right now we're gonna free college free daycare free transit bus and subway free free free well somebody's got paid for that well we're gonna take your money o'reilly i don't live in this city thank god and then all of the people who pay the taxes are going to go bye
The people most thrilled about Mandoni's success yesterday are the real estate agents in Florida and the Carolinas and Tennessee and Georgia. Because, hello, that's where people are heading if this guy becomes mayor. Now, in Chicago, the violence is really what is stunning. So Johnson, who is an incompetent socialist, vetoed this week a bill that would allow police to disperse
violent gatherings in public parks, okay, when the gatherings became violent. He vetoed it. Johnson said, I don't want any more people in jail. I don't want any more people in the system. So I'm going to allow violent gatherings in the city parks, in the city streets, and the cops can't arrest them. This is Brandon Johnson. As a result, Chicago's violent crime rate is two and a half times the national average.
Two and a half times. And it's all centered in the poor neighborhoods. Yet it's the poor people who voted for Brandon Johnson. And it's the same thing in New York. You are voting for your own destruction. San Francisco, not quite the same. Okay? Very affluent city. High tech. Fuels ridiculous home prices. Squeezes the middle class and poor out of the city.
Okay, and now they will not enforce the law in San Francisco. So what you have thousands of people, drug addicts mainly, come there, live on the streets. The city gives them money, cash every month to buy their heroin or whatever they're using. Okay, gives them cash. So if you're a drug addict in California, you're going to San Francisco.
So if you have a family and you're living in the city, you can't even walk your kids to school without seeing the worst depravity on the planet. All right. These people are doing everything in public and there's no supervision. There's no quality of life. There's no crime attached to walking around naked or urinating or defecating in the street or being intoxicated, public intoxication or doing anything.
Let's let them do it. Anarchy. San Francisco. L.A. Karen Bass is the mayor. Clueless. Doesn't have a clue how to govern the nation's second largest city. Okay? 1,000 police officers down. They can't hire. Nobody wants to work for the LAPD. They'll work for the county, the sheriff, not going to L.A. because Karen Bass doesn't want to enforce the law.
And then they've got the fires and you've got the traffic and you've got nothing is getting better in Los Angeles. And it broke. And Chicago's broke, too. And New York is broke. And they'll get Chicago has lost the Chicago metro area. Three hundred and fifty thousand residents since 2020. OK, three hundred fifty thousand.
Its debt is $66 billion, the city of Chicago. And believe me, Trump's not helping you out. He's not going to do it. In Los Angeles, the debt is astronomical. In fact, they issued a warning this week. They're probably not going to be able to pay their city obligations. They've lost 220,000 residents out of L.A. in two years, since 2023.
And New York's stats are worse than that. I think it's New York state has lost a half, 500,000, half a million people. Now, some of that's being replaced by immigrants. Now, immigrants go to the big cities because they're harder to catch and there are more opportunities for, you know, off the books work and things like that. So what you have now is you have this wave of socialism. The nation's three largest cities, New York, L.A., Chicago.
All three of those cities are being destroyed along with San Francisco. You've got four major cities on the eve of destruction. Can't pay their bills, pandemonium, social danger. This is what socialism brings. Cuba is about to go up in flames. They can't even get the electricity on in Cuba, in that communist country, after all these years.
People are destitute, they have nothing. Yet, voters in America, in these four large cities, continue to vote for these people. These voters, as I said, are voting for their own destruction. I've never seen anything like it except for ancient Rome. Got a book coming out September 9th. We do feature Caligula.
The book is called Confronting Evil. He's in there. Where do you see what the Roman people were doing? It's exactly what's happening now in America, in the big cities.
