Summary

On this Wednesday edition of Sid & Friends in the Morning, Sid hammers home the point that proud America-hater in Mayor Zohran Mamdani is tarnishing sacred ground by visiting Ground Zero in lower Manhattan today as part of King Charles' and Queen Camilla's visit to New York City after the Royal pair engaged in pomp & circumstance at The White House yesterday hosted by President Trump. In other news of the day, Carl Wilson declared victory in Tuesday night’s special election for the 3rd Council District on Manhattan's West Side - completing a campaign that had the backing of New York City’s Council speaker and much of the city’s political establishment, former FBI Director James Comey is expected to turn himself in today after being subject to a second federal indictment - charged with making threats against President Donald Trump, and Mayor Mamdani joined forces with City Council Speaker Julie Menin to try to squeeze more dough out of Albany - a plea that an increasingly peeved Gov. Kathy Hochul rejected yesterday. Gregg Jarrett, Leo Terrell, Peter King, Jeanine Driscoll, Rich Lowry, Rob Shuter & Scott LoBaido join Sid on this hump day installment of Sid & Friends in the Morning.
