Summary

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez spoke at the Munich Security Conference, and her remarks sparked Democrats to possibly rethink how she is representing her own party. Hillary Clinton was also there and used very strong language about Donald Trump. Mark highlights the passing of Civil Rights leader the Reverend Jesse Jackson at the age of 84. Mark takes your calls! Mark interviews Newsmax and WOR host Rob Astorino. Rob and Mark break down why it's hard for Republicans to run as one in NYC and across the entire NY region. He also explains what a county executive actually does, essentially acting as the CEO of county government, overseeing budgets, departments, labor contracts, and public safety operations. Is Ronald A. Hicks, the new Archbishop of New York, a little too “woke” with his views?
