Summary
The Aitolia’s son was wounded over the past several days amid ongoing military strikes carried out by the United States and Israel. New York City continues to advance its proposal for a $30-per-hour minimum wage. A school in Colts Neck, NJ, is considering renaming its building in honor of President Trump.
Mark takes your calls!
Mark interviews author Ann Coulter. Ann argues that the current minimum wage doesn’t fully reflect the long-term financial burden it places on businesses and companies over time in NYC. She advocates for states to establish their own versions of DOGE in order to eliminate wasteful spending and reduce government payrolls. Ann also sounds off on the significant amount of taxpayer money she says was wasted by the Biden administration on illegal aliens.

| 0:08.8 | Well, you know, they had the big ceremony yesterday for the new Ayatollah, the new leader of Iran. |
| 0:14.7 | This is the Ayatollah son, who was supposed to be just as bad, even worse, but also said to have absolutely no personality |
| 0:22.3 | whatsoever, but it was the installation ceremony for the new leader of Iran, the new Ayatollah. |
| 0:28.5 | Thousands showed up, except him, except the new leader. |
| 0:33.2 | He was not there, so speculation was he wounded in one of those bombing attacks, or was he just |
| 0:40.4 | afraid to come out in public because he'd be killed? Well, this just breaking, the source is now saying |
| 0:46.2 | that he was wounded in one of those original bombings that they say a fractured foot. That could mean |
| 0:53.3 | he lost his foot, but also they say he has a severe facial laceration. |
| 0:59.5 | So he was wounded apparently in one of those bombings. |
| 1:02.6 | That's why he wasn't there. |
| 1:03.9 | Also, I would think, since this was outdoors, thousands of people, big gathering, if he were there, he would be, I mean, he'd have a bruise on his head for when the bomb hit him right on the head. So I don't think we'll ever see this guy again. I think that'll, at some point, I mean, if he was a life insurance company, wouldn't you cancel this policy right now? |
| 1:28.3 | I mean, would you give this guy a week to live right now? |
| 1:31.8 | Hey, the Nancy Guthrie case, you haven't heard about it much. |
| 1:35.0 | You don't hear about it at all. |
| 1:36.2 | You could watch news 24-7 and not hear the name Nancy Guthrie anymore. |
| 1:41.8 | I guess that means, I know they're not giving up. There's still a couple |
| 1:46.5 | hundred investigators on it, but it means the public has kind of given up on it and the news |
| 1:52.9 | directors have kind of given up on it. The only new thing is, you know, from the beginning, |
| 1:57.6 | nobody liked that local sheriff who was running the investigation. What was his nameos that local sheriff always looked like a total bumbling buffoonish kind of a local sheriff |
| 2:08.3 | and now stuff is coming out about his past lying on a resume originally on another job way back when |
| 2:14.5 | and then earlier work in other departments, he had a few complaints |
