Welcome back, everybody. Hour 2 of Mark Simone's show on 710 WOR. I am Joe Concha, filling in for Mr. New York, Fox News contributor, columnist for the messenger. My new book comes out in June, June 25th, I want to say, of 2024. It's called Progressively Worse, How Today's Democrats are Not Your Daddy's Donkeys. It's called progressively worse, how today's Democrats are not your daddy's donkeys.

That's right. And we go through the whole litany of changes that have gone on within the party that used to be for the little guy, right?

For the working man or woman. And now they're the party of the elites, of the major cities.

They hold major fundraisers in places like, you know, not Scranton, Pennsylvania,

but Martha's Vineyard at $50,000 a plate.

It's completely and totally turned in his head.

And by the way, I listened to the news update there before, and Eric Adams, I know why now he's at 28% approval.

Because no one quite has the ability to talk out of both sides of his mouth, quite like this mayor, who's been a profound disappointment.

I'm not saying that he's worse than Bill de Blasio, but then again, Rock Bottom has a basement, apparently, and that's where Bill de Blasio is, so you can't really get any lower than him. But for him to come out and so

passionately criticize the governor of Texas and Greg Abbott because he wants to now have

locals and state officials be able to arrest those who come into this country

illegally on the state level. And for now, it's always been a federal thing. So Abbott's saying,

look, we are completely overwhelmed with thousands of people coming across the border day.

We can't handle this. We have to start doing something on our own because obviously we can't depend on the Biden

administration and the feds to do anything. And Adam should be applauding this because obviously

this is the same mayor who has whined over and over again warning of how this is going to

cost billions upon billions of dollars, this migrant crisis, to New York City to the point where now he is

cutting educational services, cutting the police force, cutting sanitation, also he can take care

of these people who shouldn't be here in the first place. And he keeps saying, well, we have to do

something about the border. All right, Abbott's doing something about the border. Oh, no, that's a Trump

policy. It's very dehumanizing to do this to these people. Oh, please, just declare already that this is not a sanctuary city and you're not going to accept anybody anymore. That's how you solve the problem, or at least manage the problem. And then the other is to call on the border to be closed. It's that simple. And he just won't do these things. So I keep hearing about how

brave he is. I was standing up to the Biden administration. No, he isn't. Because if he truly was,
