Hour 2 - Fake News Ignores Hero Cop

Hour 2 centers on the attempted terror attack outside Gracie Mansion, where two ISIS inspired attackers targeted protesters before being stopped by heroic NYPD officers, including one who famously leapt a barricade to tackle a suspect. His name is Chief Aaron Edwards, and he is the assistant chief at patrol Bureau Manhattan North. The hosts detail the attackers’ Islamic extremist motives and explosive device, while sharply criticizing CNN’s coverage for downplaying the terror motive and instead emphasizing Republican reactions to anti Islam protest comments. They also highlight NYPD frustration with New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, noting outrage that he failed to honor the officers who confronted the bombers and instead hosted a protest figure at Gracie Mansion shortly after the attack. The discussion expands into media bias, free speech rights at protests, and political narratives surrounding extremism. The hour shifts to foreign policy as President Donald Trump outlines U.S. military operations that he says destroyed Iran’s Navy, Air Force, radar systems, and mine boats, framing the campaign as proof of overwhelming American military strength. Listeners then spark lighter segments: debates over 9mm vs. .45 ACP, the culture clash of Tesla vs. diesel truck ownership, and humorous riffs on masculinity, technology, and car culture. The hour closes with pop culture commentary on Scream, Fast & Furious, Back to the Future, and nostalgic car stories.
