5:53
I'm Mike Zafracon.
5:54
I spent twenty years as in New York City comp
5:56
working the toughest beat in the country. Then I started
5:59
a global securesiness right here in New York. I've traveled
6:02
to every county in every corner of the Empire State,
6:05
and I've heard the same thing. People tell me they
6:08
haven't seen Kirsten Joe Brand for years, and I say,
6:11
you couldn't even pick.
6:11
Her out of a lineup.
6:12
I spent my life getting things done. It's time to
6:15
finally get serious about fighting crime, creating jobs, and ending
6:19
the micing crisis.
6:20
Let's get going.
6:22
I'm Mike Zafracone Canada for US Senate, and I approved this.
6:25
Message pay for my supper cone for Senate.
6:30
You don't have to be famous to have a memoir,
6:33
a book that tells the story of your life. This
6:36
is New York Times best selling author Michael Levin, and
6:39
books are my babies, your children, grandchildren, and future generations
6:44
can only know you if you put your story down
6:46
on paper. That's why I created Jewish Leader's Books, a
6:50
place where we can tell our stories for our loved
6:52

6:56
We're the people of the book.

You're listening to Talkline with Zev Brenner, America's premier Jewish
7:31
broadcast on the air since nineteen eighty one.
7:34
And now here's your host.
7:38
It's always a tree.
7:39
It was a delight that Harvard Law Professor meretis Professor
7:43
Alan Avi. There should I know Avi is a name
7:45
which he has to select people, but we like calling
7:48
his Hebrew name, so welcome back to the program. He's
7:51
a prolific author as well as new book just came
7:53
out about how to refute ten big Antaya Israel lies
7:56
at ten big anthe is real lies, and how to refute them with the truth.
8:00
What number book is that?
8:01
This is the number fifty five, but it's the first
8:03
book I've ever written, which it's free. We're distributing it
8:06
free to a million college students on a thousand college campuses,
8:12
also high schools. So if any of you are interested
8:16
in a particular college, just get in touch with us
8:19
and we'll send free copies to be distributed to every student.
8:23
We want to change the narrative on college campuses. We
8:27
want to expose the lies that the protesters are spewing,
8:31
and we want to and we want to encourage pro
8:36
Israel students to make the case for Israel based on
8:39
the truth.
8:40
So that book is free one million copies on college campuses,
8:43
which is amazing.
8:44
It's a short book. It's only like eighty or ninety pages.
8:47
It's essentially a pamphlet. You can put it in your pocket.
8:50
And you know, every time somebody on a college campus says,
8:55
oh my god, Israel is it apartheid state? Or is
8:58
committing genocide? Hand them this. It has documented answers, undisputable answers,
9:06
indisputable answers to these blood libels that are being circulated
9:10
on university campuses.
9:11
I want to get back to that.
9:12
But you know, last time we had you on talking
9:15
about the elections, we had nine hundred and seventy thousand views,
9:20
actually under eighty thousand views on YouTube alone. When you
9:23
change from the Democratic Party where you left them. So
9:26
every time I go and they go, what is Alan
9:29
going to be voting for? Is he going to be voting for Trump? Finally? So that's my question to you,
9:33
Are you finally ready to make the commitment this short
9:36
time before election day?
9:37
I'm not going to disclose my vote. I am going
9:39
to disclose that I have not endorsed a candidate. Really,
9:44
for the first time in many years, I have refused
9:47
to endorse Kamala Harris. I can't support her, and I
9:51
have not endorsed Donald Trump, and I'm not going to
9:53
disclose my vote. One of the reasons I'm not disclosing
9:57
my vote is there have really been threats and efforts
10:01
to try to take out take recriminations against me and
10:06
my family if I vote a certain way, and so
10:08
I'm going to take advantage of the constitutional right of
10:11
every voter to cast a secret ballot. But I'm not
10:15
a Democrat. I'm going to vote for candidates based on
10:18
their particular merits, and I'm not going to vote for
10:21
the Democrats in order to secure a Democratic majority in
10:24
the House or the Senate. No, I'm only going to
10:27
vote for which candidate is best for America, for world peace,
10:31
and for Israel. I am voting based on Hillal's admonition
10:36
and may not needly meely, I've spent most of my
10:39
life on the second part of that. If I am
10:41
for myself alone, what am I I'm now becoming much
10:45
more a part of I'm going to vote in the
10:48
interests of American Jews, of Israeli Jews, of what I
10:52
believe are the principles and values that I've defended and
10:56
supported all of my life.
10:58
So if I were you and I were is quoting you, I said, you just set the case of why you
11:02
will be voting for Donald Trump, because Israel is the
11:04
paramount issue.
11:06
Make the case that I'm not going to disclose my vote.
11:08
I'm not going to endorse Donald Trump, but I'm not
11:11
going to endorse Kamala Harris. Look, Donald Trump has said
11:15
some things that I just don't agree with. Then what
11:19
I worry more about is Kamala Harris has and President
11:23
Biden has put restrictions on Israel. If not for the
11:27
current administration, I think Israel would have bombed the nuclear
11:32
facilities and the oil facilities of Iran and would have
11:35
brought Iran to its knees. And Iran is now threatening
11:39
to retaliate against Israel because they know that Biden and
11:43
Harris will prevent Israel from responding. So under no circumstances
11:48
can I support a Democratic victory or can I support
11:52
Harris in this election? But I have hesitations about endorsing
11:59
Trump as well, and I vote will be secret, all.
12:01
Right, but you're pretty much outline. Forgive me.
12:04
But by saying Israel, listen, nobody's perfect and Donald Trump,
12:07
you can say, I know you've heard you say you like you don't like his domestica, John, you like the
12:11
Democrats at the agenda. But at the end of the day,
12:13
if Israel's paramount, people have no choice. Even the soakamer
12:17
rebbe who doesn't endorse candidates endorse Donald Trump just.
12:20
The other day in Monroe, New York.
12:22
I understand that, and if I were a Hasidic rebbe,
12:25
I'd probably do the same thing because I have an obligation and tell my harassidam who to vote for. But
12:31
I'm just an eighty six year old retired law professor
12:35
and I have to live with my wife and my family.
12:39
You know, my wife has voted for for Harris. My
12:43
children I think will vote for for Harris. I am
12:46
an individual and I'll make up my own decision, but
12:50
I'm not going to disclose it.
12:52
I can tell you wife who you voted for.
12:55
You'll have to ask her.
12:57
All right, well, next you about that. But no, it's
13:00
an interesting thing.
13:01
But what bothers me, by the way, is that the
13:04
first that the Tim Watz is running for vice president
13:07
together with AOC and said he'd like to see a
13:09
Speaker of the House, which got very little attention.
13:12
But that's very worrisome.
13:14
Somebody like in AOC was so anti Israel is cozied
13:17
up to by somebody running for vice president. It disturbs
13:20
me greatly, I'll be honest with you.
13:22
Stirbs me greatly. Look at Michael Moore. Michael Moore is
13:25
an out and out overt anti semi the guy who
13:28
wrote you know, me made those films. You should have
13:31
seen him on CNN today talking about Israel and killing
13:35
civilians and killing children, not a word about October seventh.
13:39
And Michael Moore is high up in the Democratic Party.
13:42
And so if you vote with the Democrats, you're voting
13:45
for Michael Moore, you're voting for AOC, You're voting for
13:48
Bernie Sanders's turned out to be one of the most
13:51
self hating Jewish senators in modern history. And so I
13:56
agree with those who say they can't be associated with
13:58
the Democratic Party, cannot be associated with the Democratic Party.
14:03
I can be associated with some members of the Democratic Party,
14:06
and I will vote for some members of the Democratic Party.
14:09
If I were in Massachusetts, I could not vote for
14:12
Liz Warren. In in New York, I would have a
14:16
problem voting for Chuck Schumer. He's been so hypocritical on
14:21
Israel and on Jewish issues. He calls himself, you know,
14:25
show Mahr, yes for Ale, But actually the word Schumer
14:29
is German, not Hebrew, and it means something very negative
14:33
in German, and it's not scho Mayher. He has not
14:37
been the show Mary yes forra Ale. He has been
14:39
the mayor Schumer.
14:40
Well, and Schulmer, you Schmiel.
14:42
Some people say, by the way, his recent statement to
14:45
the Columba University that they don't have to worry about
14:47
the Jewish students and ignore what's happening is getting a
14:50
lot of outrage.
14:51
And it should and it should, and you know, let
14:54
him talk about it, and he hasn't talked about it. Look,
14:56
Schumer has always been everything to everybody. He was going
15:00
to vote for the iranio, but he got permission from
15:03
Biden to vote against it only after they had enough
15:06
votes to vote for it. He's been a hypocrite in
15:09
a phony for years. And you know, you have guys
15:13
like James Carvell, who's an out and out bigot. James Carvell,
15:17
who's so active in the Democratic Party. He basically says,
15:21
if you're in favor of truth or if you're in
15:23
favor of due process, oh my god, that's going to
15:26
hurt the Democrats, and the Democrats have to win the election.
15:30
He is closer to having a kind of totalitarian ideology
15:35
than anybody on the Republican Party. So I'm very worried
15:38
about people who are high up in the Democratic Party,
15:42
including as I said, Michael Moore and Bernie Sanders and
15:48
James Carvell. These are not good people.
15:51
No, they're not.
15:51
And just even aos seeing all these people that are
15:54
getting really, like you said, at the Democratic National Conventure,
15:57
getting top billing. You know, if they don't say a worried about is it's really raising their status. When they
16:02
do speak about Israel, it has more.
16:04
You're absolutely right, You're absolutely right, and so I urge
16:07
everybody who cares about Israel to quit the Democratic Party,
16:10
disassociate themselves in the Democratic Party, and then vote for
16:13
who you think is best for the country, but don't
16:16
vote along party lines. I mean, I'm the first person,
16:18
probably in the history of my family ever not to
16:21
be a Democrat, and including all the members of my
16:24
current family. But go back to my parents and my grandparents,
16:28
there were all Democrats. But as Ronald Reagan said, he
16:31
didn't leave the Democratic Party, the Democratic Party left him.
16:34
You can't be in favor of AOC and Alan Durschwitz
16:37
at the same time. Sorry, no tent is big enough
16:40
for that. And I refuse to be in the tent
16:43
with Bernie Sanders, AOCIT, Liz Warren and the other Israel haters.
16:48
So does your family take it.
16:49
If they find out, for example, that you voted for Donald Trump, how will they take it?
16:53
Because you're gonna be the lone voice.
16:56
They're not gonna find out. Look, they would like me
17:00
to have not only voted for Kamala Harris, but to
17:03
have endorsed Kamala Harris. I cannot do that and I
17:06
will not do that.
17:08
By the way, have you gotten more? I mean, listen,
17:10
we had a lot of positive reaction when you were on.
17:12
Tomut leaving the Democratic Party, almost a million viewers and
17:15
forty four thousand likes, and I read a lot of the comments. People are very supportive and they're saying it's
17:19
about time. You have a lot of support out there.
17:22
But what have you been finding since you made that pronunciation and all likelihood will vote for Donald Trump? Have
17:27
you found people been receptive? Where more people have been
17:29
attacking you for attacking me?
17:31
Much much more attacking me over Look, the day I
17:36
defended Donald Trump, even though I voted against him and
17:39
I voted for his opponents. But when I defended Donald Trump.
17:43
For example, I was a very close friend to the
17:46
owner of the Boston Red Sox, John Henry, used to
17:48
invite me to his box. We spent election night together.
17:53
When Obama won the election, he invited me on his vote.
17:56
He invited me the airplane. He always sat next to
18:01
me at baseball games. The day I defended Donald Trump
18:05
on the floor of the United States Sateity, he never spoke to me again, never allowed me into the owner's
18:10
box at the Red Sox. And you know I'm still
18:14
a resax man. By the way. Congratulations to all the
18:17
La Dodger fans, the old Brooklyn Dodger fans for winning
18:20
the World Series. This is the ring that the Brooklyn
18:24
Dodgers won in nineteen fifty five. This was Don Zimmer's
18:28
ring the year the Brooklyn Dodgers won the World Series,
18:33
the only time they've ever won the World Series. And
18:35
as people from Borough Park will remember, I lived one
18:38
block away from Sandy Kofax. He lived on forty eighth
18:42
Street between fourteenth and fifteenth. I lived on boop of Boulevard,
18:46
which is forty eighth Street between fifteenth and sixteenth. But
18:50
of course I knew Sandy Kopax. Today, Hello to growing up.
18:54
And for my fifty fifth birthday, my wife managed to
18:57
get Sandy Kopax to come to my house for dinner.
19:00
You know, I've been a Brooklyn Dodger fan for a
19:02
long time, and so congratulations to those Brooklyn Dodger fans
19:07
who were able to transfer the loyalty to Los Angeles.
19:10
I was never able to do that, But I didn't know.
19:12
Stanley of Kolfax lived in Borough Park.
19:14
He was brought up in Bay Ridge, but he lived
19:17
between fifteenth and sixteenth Avenue and Borough Park. His father
19:21
had a little house, like a three family house, and
19:25
it had a sign in front irving Kofax Lawyer, taxa returns,
19:31
insurance policies, accidents. You know, he was a small town lawyer.
19:36
But Sandy lived on my block. He played basketball at
19:39
the y on fourteenth Avenue between forty ninth and fiftieth Street,
19:43
although most of the time he spent in the y
19:47
in Bensonhurst, where he had gone to school. His parents
19:50
moved from Benz Nurse to Borough Park when he was
19:53
like a sophomore in high school. But he used to
19:56
occasionally go to Temple Emmanuel in Borough Park, the Conserva Temple.
20:00
And of course we know he didn't pitch.
20:02
On Young Keyport, but I guess you went to eight time on thirteenth Avenue, and fiftieth Street right, I went.
20:07
To eighth Cliam and I walked past Basically, I walked
20:10
past Urban Cofax's Loafing every day because I walked down
20:14
forty eighth Street until thirteenth and I turned left past
20:17
Miller's Appetizer and went to eighth Cliam, where I was
20:21
a bundit and where I got in trouble all the time.
20:23
And of course that's not their Boroughpark has changed. Have you've gone to Borough Park lately, you've seeing them to difference.
20:28
I still love eating on thirteenth Avenue of sixteenth Avenue,
20:32
but when I go to Borough Park, I feel like a space alien because I don't look like everybody else,
20:38
and people look at me and they don't recognize me because they don't watch television. For the most part, occasionally
20:43
somebody will come up to me. My mother lived in
20:45
Borough Park till the end of our life. She died
20:48
in ninety five, and people would come up to me
20:51
sometimes Causeidon would say, ah Dershowitz, and my mother would say,
20:55
why did you watch them on television? You're not supposed
20:57
to watch television. How do you know who he is? So yeah, now I go back to Borrow Park From
21:02
time time. I represent some people in Borough Park, some wonderful,
21:06
wonderful people from the Faciiti community, and so I go
21:10

27:18
You're listening to Talkline with Zev Brenner, America's premier Jewish
27:21
broadcast on the air since nineteen eighty one.
27:24
And now here's your host.
27:28
Arias is Harvard Law Professor Emeritus Alan Avidershowitz, and he's
27:33
written this fifty fifth book dealing with campuses and a
27:36
ten big anthonys relies how to refute them with the truth.
27:39
It's giving up one million free copies on campus itself.
27:42
At the back of the book is a message to young students, and I say, you are a fortunate generation,
27:48
far more fortunate than previous generations who were not in
27:52
a position to defend Israel in the Jewish community against
27:55
anti Semitism, anti Zionism, and unfair attacks on your heritage.
27:59
Innineteen thirty, students and others of your age did not
28:02
have the power or the ability to speak up against Nazism.
28:06
But you have that power. Use it. Your professors won't
28:10
do it, your administrators, the presidents of the universities won't
28:13
do it. But you have the power to do it. So you're a privileged generation. You have the power to
28:18
defend Israel and to defend the Jewish community.
28:21
The promised professor is that a lot of students are
28:23
not really set up to be warriors for Israel.
28:26
They should be warriors for Israel, and every Jew has
28:30
an obligation, every pro Israel person. By the way, many Christians,
28:34
many Christians are pro Israel, and they too have been
28:38
speaking out and should speak out. Look, a lot of
28:40
these kids on college campus that today have been so
28:43
brave they have been willing to get lower grades because
28:46
they get lower grades if they support Israel, Fewer recommendations
28:49
and a lot of cancelation by friends. I have friends
28:55
of mine who have been told they've been turned down from fraternities and sororities, and they haven't and allowed to
29:01
go here and there join clubs. Look at in Berkeley,
29:05
a state sponsored school Berkeley, California, thirteen clubs, including Black Club,
29:10
a women's club, gay club, have said if you're a Zionist,
29:13
you can't speak in our club. Will be a member. That's illegal. But that's what's happening to students at places
29:20
like the University of California.
29:22
But you're also happening to book authors and you're having
29:24
to professors. Are Bernard Henry Leavey's book has been It's
29:28
an important book, but yet he didn't want to promote
29:31
it because he's Jewish.
29:33
That's right. And you know I used to get promoted.
29:36
I used to get invited to speak at every college
29:38
and the university. Today they're not inviting me. But you
29:41
know what I've done with this book. I have agreed
29:44
to speak free on Zoom at any college and any
29:48
university that wants me to speak. And I will be
29:51
speaking at the University of Pennsylvania, I will be speaking
29:54
at Yale. I will be speaking by Zoom to Harvard
29:57
students and alumni. So you want me to speak at
30:00
your college or university, just call and arrange with my
30:04
office and I will speak free of charge by zoom.
30:07
If it's local, I can do it in person if
30:09
the school will have me. Schools say, oh no, we
30:12
can't have Drschwitz. The security needs are too great. We
30:15
have to have too many policemen because people are threatening
30:17
to kill him if he speaks on our campus.
30:19
Which is crazy. Free speech has been stifled.
30:22
Speak at Brooklyn College. I went to Brooklyn College. I'm
30:25
probably the best known graduate of Brooklyn College. I cannot
30:30
speak there about Israel. You know what they told me
30:32
when I was invited by a small Jewish group to
30:35
speak there. We don't need another Israeli speaker. We've already
30:37
had Norman Finkelstein. Wow, so they won't let me speak
30:41
at Brooklyn College.
30:42
Let me ask a question.
30:43
If a student club invites you, they don't have the
30:46
right to have you speak to a private to a club.
30:48
You know, it may be fun about university.
30:50
I know in Columbia they say, well, you know, we
30:52
had an anti Yusuel speaker, but it was a group,
30:55
a chapter of some organizations that had it, So why
30:57
does not hold for Brooklyn College?
31:00
Schools have rules that will not allow student groups to
31:04
invite without the approval of X, Y and Z. So
31:07
I was invited by the University of California at Berkeley
31:10
and they tried to cancel it. I threaten to bring a lawsuit, and they allowed me to speak. But I
31:16
have not been allowed to speak at Brooklyn College, or
31:19
at City University, or at Hunter College, or at any
31:22
of the news And by the way, when I was invited to speak at Yeshiva University, Yeshiva University, Cardoza Law School,
31:29
there were efforts to try to stop me from speaking.
31:32
In the front row, there were students, mostly minority students,
31:35
but there were some others with signs saying why do
31:39
we allow a rapist to speak in our school? A
31:41
child molestor This goes back to the false accusation that
31:45
was withdrawn by a woman who admitted that she may
31:48
have confused me and mistaken me for somebody else. But
31:51
when it comes to speaking about Israel, it doesn't matter.
31:54
Even James Carvel brought that issue up when he attacked
32:00
me for defending Donald Trump's rights in court. He brought
32:06
that up, and so people bring up that fake issue,
32:09
which has been withdrawn with an admission by the woman
32:12
herself that she may have mistaken me for somebody else.
32:14
But that becomes the excuse at Cardoza Law School. And
32:17
then the dean of Cardoza Law School, sponsored by Yeshiva University,
32:22
took the part of the students rather than the part
32:25
of the speaker.
32:26
She did not.
32:26
Defend my right to free speech. She defended the right
32:29
of the students to defame me. And that's Cardoza Law School.
32:34
Can you imagine how it must be in other law schools.
32:36
Let me tell you it's a lot better at Catholic
32:38
schools than it is a Jewish schools.
32:41
Unfortunately, that's to be the case.
32:42
Did you try suing the woman for monetary damages, the
32:46
one who claimed that you were involved with Jeffrey Epstein?
32:49
She had to recant, of course, my.
32:51
Suit of for monetary damages, and then she withdrew her
32:54
lawsuit and admitted that she may have made it up,
32:57
and so I dropped my lawsuit as well. So that
33:01
cases over.
33:02
But you don't want to pursue it.
33:03
Just a teacher a lesson, Well, you know, I have
33:06
better things to do to spend my time. But if
33:08
anybody does accuse me now, I will I will sue them.
33:13
I have photographs of the people who held up those
33:15
signs at Cardoza, and I'm thinking about the possibility of
33:18
bringing lawsuits. And I am bringing lawsuits against some anti
33:23
Israel people who have brought that issue up and tried
33:26
to use it as a way of discrediting me on Israel.
33:29
So I'm going to be pretty proactive in making sure
33:33
that people can't use that against me when I defend Israel.
33:37
Now, one time on this program, professor you mentioned that
33:41
the best way to create anti semis is to sue them.
33:44
Has he had any progress getting a codre of lawyers
33:47
to sue those that are engaged in anti Semitic activity.
33:50
Well, only anti Semitic acts, and so the organization was
33:54
called Hurt a Jew. We sue you, and I do
33:58
have some lawyers who are prepared. And so if you know anybody who has been attacked, physically attacked. We're not
34:03
talking about speeches, just physically attack, whether it be in
34:07
Crown Heights or in Manhattan or anywhere else, call me
34:10
and you can call you and you'll put me in
34:13
touch with them, and we will file lawsuits on behalf
34:17
of anybody who's been hurt because they're Jewish. Because prosecutors
34:22
don't bring these cases for the most part, they let
34:24
them drop. But if it's a civil lawsuit, you can't
34:26
make us drop it.
34:27
By the way, what do you think about the legal
34:30
woes that New York City Mayor Eric Adams is facing.
34:33
Well, he's presumed innocent. I want to hear the evidence,
34:36
so I want to see what it looks like. You know,
34:38
it's so easy to bring lawsuits these days, and even
34:42
to bring indictments. Look at the indictment against Donald Trump,
34:45
which resulted in the conviction for something that isn't a crime.
34:48
You know, I've been teaching and writing about criminal office
34:51
sixty years. I think I know the subject pretty well.
34:54
And I can't understand the charges against Donald Trump in
34:56
the New York case. And so we'll have to wait
34:59
and see what the with the Adams case springs about you.
35:02
So, when I mentioned that fact to a New York, prominent New York Democratic lawyer, very prominent, he said, oh,
35:07
Allen dors Was he's like so into Trump that he's
35:09
ignoring the law.
35:10
Well, first of all, I'm not at the Trump I've never voted for Trump in my life. And second of all,
35:16
I'm into the law, and I challenge him put him
35:19
on the show with me. I challenge him to explain
35:22
to anybody what the charges against them are. I don't
35:24
understand those charges. They're just not there. They're made up.
35:29
I think that'll be a future program where we can discuss.
35:31
Is happy to do it, Surriv. It's always a pleasure
35:35
to have you on the air with us.
35:37
You do a great job, and I'm so always pleased
35:39
to be on and keep calling me Avi. You know,
35:41
all my old friends from Bura Parks still call me Avi.
35:44
My friend Carl, I've only known him now for about
35:47
eighty four years. Our parents walked us together in Williamsburg
35:52
in a baby carriage. Is that's how long I've known Carl.
35:55
And he called me today. We're going to have lunch on Sunday and he said, hey, Avy, how are you.
36:00
As soon as people say Avi, I know how long
36:02
they've known me for.
36:04
And I think you have the Calman family in the
36:06
Upper West Side Manhattan, and go back with you.
36:08
Yeah. Her calls me Ave all the time, and Ira
36:11
writes to me all the time and says, how can you be supporting Trump? How can you be supporting Trump?
36:16
You know?
36:16
So I fight with a lot of my old friends.
36:19
I think of my eight old friends, seven of whom
36:21
are so alive. I think too probably for Trump. One
36:26
won't disclose me, and the others are all for or
36:29
all for Harris.
36:30
But they still talk to you. That's a good thing.
36:32
They, unlike the people on Martin's Vineyard, are the owner
36:35
of the Boston Red Sox.
36:36
Wow, seame you can't sue them, right, I don't want.
36:38
To sue them. I want to just have marketplace of ideas open to everybody, so everybody's views can be heard.
36:43
That's going out the window in America.
36:45
It's going out the window. And I think if the Democrats win, it'll go out the window more. They are
36:50
the party refreshed. James Carvel in a post talks about
36:54
how terrible it is that people are interested in the truth.
36:57
People like me are interested in the truth, are interested
36:59
in process instead of just having the Democrats win. That's
37:03
what so many on the hard left of the Democratic
37:05
Party are in favor. They're much closer to a totalitarian
37:09
mindset than people on the right.
37:11
Absolutely, it's fascism of the left.
37:14
Well, I don't like to use the term fascism, but cotalitarianism is a good term. You know, Nazi analogies. What
37:20
the Nazis did was so much worse than anything. People
37:23
who compare you know, Trump to Hitler or the Republicans
37:26
to Nazis are essentially how kaust deniers. They're saying that
37:30
what happen between nineteen forty one nineteen forty five is
37:34
no worse than what's going on today, and that's wrong.
37:37
It's throwing out the garbage. That's really what it is.
37:39
It's throwing out to see instead of fighting on ideas,
37:41
that fighting on saying this person's a hit lerrys a demon,
37:44
This follows a garbage.
37:46
It's not the way to really conduct it.
37:47
As you're engaged in too much name calling both sides.
37:50
Professor, I'm looking for it.
37:51
Will you disclose your vote after the election, we'll see,
37:54
all right, keep on doing what you're doing for this
37:57
or people say they admire you how you keep on such a strong support order of visual keep it up
38:01
your latest book, they can get it's dealing with college campuses.
38:05
It's called the ten big antheors relies and how to
38:07
refute them with the truth.
38:08
With the truth free, free of sure free.
38:11
If it's free, I'll take two professors.

39:22
So good to have you on the program. Thank you for joining us, Thanks for having me. You know, I'm
39:26
curious because I into a lot of the Orthodox Jewish legislators.
39:30
You're the only exception that's the republic Everybody else is
39:32
a Democrat, simple Eisenstein, Kaman yegor Simka Felder.
39:36
You had the lone Republican in the group.
39:37
Some of them are assembly people. Yet I'm the first,
39:41
uh and only Republican or Didston state history, and that's
39:45
a very sad comment You know, I'm the very first
39:47
elected official on Long Island to wear iyamica a quarter
39:50
of a century ago. That's also a very sad commentary.
39:53
Here's the thinking, because I heard we just had a
39:55
conversation with Dove Hiking, former of Sliman Democratics and now Republican.
40:00
I'm thinking is is some of the rabbi, some of the leaders, say well, we have to vote democratic on
40:04
local elections because they're going to bring home the bacon. They're going to bring home the money the community. Republicans
40:09
can do that. So the vote republican the national rights,
40:11
but the vote democratic locally.
40:13
What do you say to that, Well, it's specifically talking
40:15
in the Assembly, I would say it is the rabb
40:17
i should mostly take their yamucha's off because the hill
40:20
of hush em that they're causing is monumental. I've been
40:23
in office a quarter of a century. If you haven't
40:25
come to Cedarhurst, then you really haven't participated in any
40:29
major Jewish event. What do I mean by that? I've
40:31
been in office. I know all our assembly people for
40:33
the past. I'm here thirty three years. I've never seen
40:37
my assembly people. They're nice people, very nice people. I
40:41
have never received a penny in the village of Cedars
40:43
I'm still the deputy mayor there. Ever, you haven't given
40:46
it to Cedarhurst, you haven't given it anywhere. Let's see,
40:49
I just built a pick a bull court and Seedarhurst.
40:51
I just gave one hundred thousand dollars to Long Beach City Hall. I just gave one hundred and fifty thousand
40:55
dollars to Island Park. Each one of my libraries gets
40:58
tens of thousands of dollars plate reader cameras to ocean side.
41:04
I can go on forever. You know what I've gotten
41:06
from my assembly people in the last thirty years zero,
41:09
So whatever they're saying isn't true. And I got to tell you something else. I'm the if you look at
41:14
the other side of the Island Assembly, they don't show up,
41:16
so I know who's voting for what, and I know
41:19
who's having the speaker press the button for them. When
41:22
you're wearing a yamack on your head and you're voting
41:24
for prop one, things that are not only anti American,
41:28
by anti Tora, I tell the Rabbis do your research
41:31
and shame on you for supporting anti Torah values periods.
41:35
I'm the only one that's not it.
41:37
You mentioned prop one.
41:38
I know that a lot of people are a post to tell Aridon what it's all about and what's so
41:43
dangerous about prop one.
41:44
Prop one is a very sinister proposition where they're trying
41:48
to paint it as an abortion issue, but if you
41:50
read it, it really doesn't say that. It's really an
41:53
end run on a number of things. Number One, you
41:56
can't discriminate against somebody for their residency In other words,
41:59
if you're a legal migrants carte blanche, you're gonna get
42:03
every bill paid for you. Age discrimination, well, this is
42:07
a big one that my colleagues and rabbis listen have
42:11
all supported. What does that mean if a man wants
42:14
to sleep with a twelve year old boy, you can't
42:17
discriminate against them. The whole pedophilia issue is opened up
42:20
with this. Every tora of value is being broken by
42:25
this proposition. Besides being a very anti American in every
42:28
single way, when Newsday votes against it, says it is
42:32
not supporting it, you know that's pretty bad. You know,
42:35
I'm the son of a Holocaust survivor, my mother and grandmother,
42:38
and I remember as a kid always hearing the real stories.
42:40
You know, my generation, our generation, the Holocaust was right there.
42:43
It was an ancient history, and we all said to ourselves,
42:45
we would have hidden in frank and we would have been the shindler. But you know what, we had this
42:50
opportunity when it came to COVID recently. My grandmother would
42:55
make matz out of dust and these robuttum shut shools down.
42:59
This is the time for them to be shindler and
43:02
stand up for what's right. Not colleagues who support every
43:06
anti Torah value. Shameful.
43:09
So do you have conversation with the rabbis in the community about this issue?
43:12
Again, all those rabbis on those I never heard of them because they really one or two they never really
43:16
get involved in the community. A few of the big ones I've heard, I think they're just misguided because what
43:22
they do is, I say, why do you I've spoken
43:24
to w what do you do as well? You know we're not going to get our funding for a hull
43:28
of modes. Took this project, I said, rabbis or to
43:31
my colleagues. If all this is about about getting two
43:34
or three hundred thousand dollars for a Holla mode event
43:37
or some Jewish festival last the day, shame on you.
43:41
I put it into something for the entire community, for infrastructure,
43:44
something that will last a lifetime. Whether I just gave
43:49
money to put together a mobile library for the Peninsula
43:53
Public Library that not only stays the Jewish people, that
43:56
serves all people, a one off for a holiday. If
43:58
that's what you're looking for and not looking at the
44:00
big picture, they say, well, the majority, Well guess what
44:04
if the few yamakas on the other side of the aisle will come to my side. We get rid of
44:08
the supermajority, the the person that stands up for Torah
44:12
and Jewish value. Isn't it shameful that the rabbis say
44:15
to support the people who are part of the put,
44:18
part of AOC, the squad, Thalibs, the Omars.
44:22
Be supporting democratic candidates.
44:23
Is that what you're reporting democratic candidates? In any way,
44:26
you're supporting that party. When my colleague and now with
44:29
the Congressman Mike Lawler, wanted to have a resolution and
44:33
you hatred day and that couldn't come to the floor,
44:36
but Menstrual hygien Day was lorded. That day is the
44:38
greatest piece of legislation. And my colleagues said nothing. I
44:43
have six bills in the Assembly on anti Semitism and
44:46
that one yamaka is standing with me. But every non
44:50
Jewish stay with me on these hills. Why because they're
44:53
afraid of the speaker and they're afraid of the DSA.
44:56
These are the Jews that the rabbis are supporting. They're wonderful, kid,
45:00
I like them all. They're really wonderful. I can't say
45:03
one bad thing about those colleagues. They're the nicest kids.
45:07
But you know what, it's misguided and it's shameful. It's
45:10
time to stand up for the Jewish people.
45:12
You caucus at all with the other Orthodox Jewish legislators.
45:16
I asked them to. I'm the one that writes the bills.
45:19
I say, right away. Please, here's a letter I'm writing
45:23
to a university president. Please sign on. Here's a bill,
45:26
six bills, please sign on.
45:29
Here.
45:29
I'm having a press conference on the million dollar staircase. Nothing.
45:33
What do they tell you?
45:34
They don't you know, I'm not gonna get my funding.
45:38
We have to bring back the bacon. Even that a
45:41
Jew is saying bring back the bacon just shows you
45:44
how anti Tora values this is about. Is it about
45:47
a money for a one off thing, or to deliver
45:50
for the entire Jewish people? I say, be it proud
45:53
jew come to the side that supports the Jewish people,
45:57
not the party of the AOCS, not the party of
46:00
the kou kux Klan, not the body of the segregationists.
46:03
But but now you know there was a movement underway,
46:06
and we spoke about it on the area you're well aware of it. Where they're saying too orthodox shoes especially.
46:11
You know you want to vote Republican, but at least be a registered Democrat because all the interesting races and
46:16
primary races are in the Democratic Party. You have more
46:19
influence by being a Democrat. And vote Republican if you like,
46:22
but stay in the party.
46:23
Again, it's the question of a ghanav a Goslin. You
46:27
know you want to steal at night, and you're not afraid of God, be a robber during the day. God's
46:32
more accepting of something like that. Be a proud Jew.
46:35
People say you didn't grow up religious, but you always were a keeper. You know why you wear a kipa
46:39
because they didn't want me to be the proud Jew.
46:42
Twenty four to seven. Not when it's convenient, not for you,
46:46
for any type of maneuvers. Come to our side. Eventually
46:50
we'll get the majority again. At least we'll get rid
46:52
of the supermajority right away. What they can't stand on
46:56
their own merit. Only through having the D in front
46:59
will they be voted for. They shouldn't be in office.
47:01
And again they are all the nicest kids, every one
47:05
of them, but they do the wrong thing.
47:07
Let's get personal. You said you mentioned that you weren't
47:09
wars observant. What made you decide to become more involved
47:12
politically and also religiously.
47:14
The funny story, I used to be very smart, but I lost a lot of brain cells over the years.
47:18
I graduated. I just turned sixteen from high school. I
47:20
wasn't old enough to drive to school. I know how to go to college at night. I went to Israel
47:24
for the year. When I came home, my parents became religious.
47:27
I said, I think you got a little backwards. I was suused to.
47:30
But anyway, why did they become religious because you went
47:32
to Israel?
47:33
Well, they had a you know whatever it was. And
47:38
my parents never missed dobbining Minka Mara over. My mother lectured.
47:42
My mother was a very just passed away as a very famous lecture on Holocaust studies. My mother and grandmother
47:48
are Italian Jews. It's a very famous story. In a
47:50
book called Haven, you can read about this story. But politics,
47:54
Mayor Parisi called me twenty five twenty six years ago
47:57
our computer ponyboard, and you know, so on and so forth,
48:01
and it led to other things. I used to be the vice share of the Townehampstad Industrial Development Agency, but
48:06
I always said no to bigger office because my seven kids,
48:09
they're all grown now. If they were up, I wanted
48:12
to be home. I went on every school trip. I
48:14
was the class mother for five of my seven kids.
48:17
If they're awake, I'm gonna be there. I'm never going to miss a day. And that's why I got great kids.
48:22
Thank good.
48:23
So now that the kids are older, any plans where
48:25
you look for a higher position.
48:27
Listen, every person makes this mistake. Whether you're a mayor
48:30
or a governor or a president of United States, you know what it means. It means nothing. It means nothing.
48:35
People forget about you the next day when you know,
48:38
for whatever reason, it's what you do for a fellow person.
48:41
I had the opportunity recently. They I got to call, Hey, Ai,
48:44
you matched for someone for kidney donation. I said, let's
48:48
do it. You said, you don't want to ask if he's from or not from. I said, if anybody have
48:51
to ask you that, don't take the kidney from them.
48:54
Shame on them. I don't care who it is with doing it. Turned out I donated a kidney to a
48:58
purple heart veteran wonderful fellow. Wow, you do because you
49:02
do that for any higher office. I would never want
49:05
higher office. And I'll tell you why. We have the best congressman in Anthony Di Esposito, and I have a wonderful,
49:10
wonderful Senator and Senator Patricia Cansinarry Fitzpatrick. They are phenomenal.
49:15
They are my partners in every which way. And just
49:18
for the Rabbis again, talk about democrats in office. Very
49:21
few people have been in office as long as I've been. I walked over on jantif to the Lawrence Country Club.
49:26
There was an event a long beach Latino Civic Association.
49:29
This lady comes over to me. You see me in the five pounds because she read the article on the
49:33
post where I apparently said she wasn't. I said, I apologize,
49:36
Who are you? I'm sorry, I'm Laura Gillan. I said, oh, well,
49:39
we never met. I'm in office twenty five years and
49:41
I used to be the vice chair. You're bored and
49:44
we never met. Kind of tells you that there's a problem.
49:47
But I'll tell you what. I have a congressman that
49:49
I've always seen every single day. That's Anthony di Esposito.
49:53
So you know what, I have never seen my Democrat colleagues.
49:56
Ever in my village of Cedar, I said, you know what, I'm the shopping district of the south through along Island.
50:00
Everything in the five pounds revolves around my park. If
50:03
I haven't seen you there, shame.
50:05
On you times in. This has a tough election re
50:07
election battle.
50:08
Doesn't that tough? Wherever you go? He's beloved. They did
50:11
a poll and the poll excluded the entire five pounds.
50:14
They did it ober Yant, so eighteen and a half percent of the electorate wasn't included.
50:18
I did it, really? They did it over of course they did it.
50:22
And this is who the rabbis, these particular rabbis and
50:26
my Democrat colleagues are supporting. It's time to be good Jews.
50:31
You did screw up with this. It's time to be
50:34
proud Jews and not cower from the DSA. Why did
50:37
they do it? We had a not on my dime
50:39
bill that they wanted to put on the floor to
50:41
Carl Hasty's credits. He didn't let it come to committee.
50:44
But one of them should speak out. I have a
50:47
press conference that I invited all of them. In other words,
50:50
any any non for profit that would support Israel, you know,
50:53
should be excluded from any funding in the state. Not
50:56
one of my Democrat colleagues should stand with me. Every
50:59
non Jew and never non firm stood with me. This
51:01
is what we need to cower. Why because they're afraid
51:04
the Democrats Socialists will primary them. I had a wonderful
51:07
colleague who was in charge of the Chaman of people
51:11
with disabilities, claiming Liberal they primary them, knocked them out,
51:15
and they're all worried about Are we worried as Jews
51:18
to have badges on our chest or to do the
51:21
right thing as Americans, the Yorkers and the Jewish people.
51:24
I don't know. My father taught me the right way, you know. I always stated the rabbis, you know, you
51:28
should have a class. The class should be called how
51:31
to be a gentleman? One oh one, and everything else follows.
51:34
From there, and its how to be a men's right,
51:36
that's it, how to be a mens. It's not taught
51:39
before I let you. How's your re election campaign coming along?
51:42
Wonderful?
51:43
Thank God?
51:44
You know you say, wow, you got Long Beach. You know,
51:46
we knocked out the wind turbines that were going to
51:49
destroy Long Beach. Mic my opponents that used to be
51:53
a very nice lady. First supported it. Now she's saying
51:56
she didn't support it. She's not supported because she used to be on the town the city council. I told
52:00
them you better get off of it because your whole
52:02
community is gonna come out against you. And they removed
52:05
her from the board. Very nice lady, though, I have
52:08
to say, she's been very you know, but they were
52:10
going to dig up fats of burbines blocking everything.
52:13
Thank you, yell, I'm Trump campaign for you.
52:16
I know.
52:16
Speaker Johnson was with you the other night, right at.
52:18
Dinner last night with the Speaker Johnson. What a man,
52:22
what a fine person. I have to tell you, I
52:25
really honored to be with him last night. Really was
52:28
an absolute honor. We got a great slate supporters of
52:31
the Jewish people across the board. Can we say that
52:35
about the Democrats? My fellow rabbis, why are you supporting
52:39
a party, even if it's a single candidate, that is
52:42
the party that calls for the destruction of state of Israel?
52:46
Tell me, I'm gonna give everybody the answer. It's the
52:49
story of Loats. When Abram sends the Melachem to Sidome
52:53
and the Stamites around the house. What does loads say,
52:55
take my virgin daughters, do what you will with them,
52:58
but let me save these people. That's the sickness that
53:02
goes to the head. Let the world love me, give
53:04
me a bitch, wake up.
53:05
You get blowback from the Rabbi by speaking up your
53:08
mind and saying calling them to the task.
53:10
I'm one of the oldest state legislators. If you don't
53:12
want to vote for me for that because I'm standing up for the Jewish people, then God will do what
53:16
he wants to do.
53:17
You know.
53:17
Anyway, then we're gonna have to have you back more offins.
53:19
You're not afraid to speak your mind, which I like you say the way you see it, which is a mile.
53:24
In today's day and age, too many people are afraid
53:27
to take a position.
53:28
Like I said. You know, I'm one of the oldest state legislators. I can't speak my mind at this point,
53:33
and you.
53:34
Can't do it. I mean selling me and Auri Brown,
53:37
thank you for joining us.
53:38
Thanks good speaking to you.
