| 0:00.0 | Hello America and welcome to the Friday edition of John Solomon reports the podcast from |
| 0:12.0 | Justin News. Yes, we're going to make it to another weekend. How lucky are we? I can |
| 0:16.9 | get those Kansas City stakes on the grill. I am. But first we got to get some work done |
| 0:20.8 | here in the Freedom Foam Studios here in Washington, DC at Justin News headquarters. In a few |
| 0:26.2 | minutes, we're going to be talking to Congressman Lee Zeldin about the burgeoning scandal in New York, |
| 0:31.8 | involving Governor Andrew Cuomo already determined by the Attorney General, a Democrat by the way, |
| 0:37.9 | that Andrew Cuomo has violated state and federal laws by sexually harassing and appropriately |
| 0:43.2 | touching potentially sexually assaulting women in New York. And today there was a big moment. One |

| 1:32.8 | declared candidate for Governor in 2022. He'll either be running against Andrew Cuomo or if |
| 1:38.2 | Andrew Cuomo is removed from office or resigns from office as some are calling. He will be running |
| 1:44.4 | against Andrew Cuomo's successor. Great opportunity to talk to someone on the front lines of one of |
| 1:49.5 | the biggest scandals in America right now. The Andrew Cuomo sexual harassment scandal in New York. |
| 1:54.8 | And let's not forget about nursing homes because while he was allegedly harassing women, his |
| 1:59.6 | administration was sending sick COVID patients which lit up the nursing homes of New York with |
| 2:05.4 | disease and led to many, many deaths. Both of those are very important. You're going to talk to |
