The conversation soon shifts from personal reflections to the political scene, shedding light on an unusual occurrence regarding a political candidate’s social media following. The discussion turns critical as they address Zoran Mamdani’s politicking, numbers, and influence. Humor and skepticism intermingle as they dissect these digital metrics and their potential symbolism. The conversation further evolves into a scrutiny of Democratic policies and leaders, probing how certain political figures might influence America’s future. Gallagher’s sharp wit and insightful commentary provide listeners with engaging and thought-provoking discourse.

SPEAKER 03 :
I’ve been in a spiritual mood and I was getting ready for work today and I thought, why am I thinking about spiritual, theological, you know, faith-filled issues? You’re about to go to Israel. I’m about to go to the Holy Land and And I told Joey as we’re planning out the itinerary, and look, unfortunately, there’s some precautions that you’ve got to take. I mean, we’re going to have armed security with us. I don’t know. I think it’s relatively safe right now, but the peace… uh, deal is fragile. Um, there are still, you know, the potential for things to, but I told Joey, I’ve got one spot I want to go. And I, as many times as I’ve been, and we were trying to total it up the other day, I think it’s, this is like my 12th, maybe 13th or 14th.
SPEAKER 02 :
It never gets, I’m told it never gets old. I’ve been precisely once in 2003 and it is wrapped around my heart so tightly to this day. So where is there someplace? What have you not done?
SPEAKER 03 :
It changes you. Oh, I think I’ve been everywhere you can go, but I want to go back to the Garden of Gethsemane. For some reason, that place really does speak to me and to just walk among those ancient olive trees and just take that all in. And look, good versus evil is as real today as it’s ever been. It’s as real as it was when Jesus walked the earth. Yeah. I came across something that creeped me out yesterday, and now people are going to make fun of me probably for even saying this. I looked at the Zoran Mamdani Twitter site, his ex-page.
SPEAKER 02 :
The follower’s number?
SPEAKER 03 :
Did you see that? Did you see how many followers he’s got?
SPEAKER 1 :
666,000.
SPEAKER 02 :
All right. Well, Mark, what?
SPEAKER 03 :
What? And you know what’s funny? And all I posted yesterday was, holy crap, check out the numbers of followers he has. Gulp.
SPEAKER 02 :
If the free buses, you can’t be convinced that that’s stupid. And if the rent freeze, you can’t be convinced that it’s just a horrible idea. Let’s just throw some Mark of the Beast down, and maybe that will somehow turn this election. Let’s just call the anti-
SPEAKER 03 :
Call him the Antichrist and get it over with, you know? He’s the Antichrist. We’ve got to stop the beast. But, no, it is true for the record. And if you notice some of the comments on my ex-account, and I hope you follow me at Gallagher’s Show. We have a lot of followers from yesterday because I took on. our pal Hugh Hewitt and Sid Rosenberg out of New York because they’re all about go vote Cuomo, vote Cuomo. Curtis ought to step down. Anyway, if you follow me on X, you’ll see some of the comments where I said, holy crap, look at the number of followers he has. People thought I was remarking on how many followers he has. No, it’s not how many followers he has.
SPEAKER 02 :
It’s what the number is. Right, exactly. Exactly. Because, you know, honestly, for people that are as big a deal as he is, I mean, let’s look at you and me. I mean, we got what we got, and we’re very proud. But I would have thought that a communist Islamist New York mayoral candidate who’s become the rock star of the moment, I’d think he’d have at least a mil. Oh, I thought he would have had at least a couple million. What does AOC have? I’ll look while you talk.
SPEAKER 03 :
That number is going to stay at 660.
SPEAKER 02 :
That was the joke I made back. Listen, it’s a number. It’s like when the odometer goes to 100,000. It’s a number. It’s a real number, though. It’s a number, all right. But if he gets, as this election draws closer and closer and closer, he clearly is getting thousands and thousands of new followers. But if that number stays at 666,000 on his Twitter feed, I think we’re on to something.
SPEAKER 03 :
Now, can I hold your feet to the fire for a moment? Of course. You’re mocking me. Do you not think this is kind of creepy? 666,000 followers on Twitter?
SPEAKER 02 :
I think he’s creepy. Yes. I think his ideas are terrible. Yes. But they’re not just, no, no, no, no. Don’t say that. I think the incidental number of followers he has is numerological biffle.
SPEAKER 03 :
Go to the text line, 800-655-6453.
SPEAKER 02 :
Oh, by the way, that doesn’t mean that I sneeze at any of the imagery or Mark of the Beast stuff. What do I know? But is this necessarily linkable to something?
SPEAKER 03 :
Evil is real.
SPEAKER 02 :
Oh, totally. Completely.
SPEAKER 03 :
I almost wonder if you’re not marginalizing things a little bit when you say, well, I don’t like his ideas.
SPEAKER 02 :
Mark, this is more than that.
SPEAKER 1 :
100%.
SPEAKER 02 :
So let me add to the paragraph and hopefully not spoil a good quality scolding from you. Every Democrat has bad ideas. let’s stipulate, right, every Democrat, even the ones who we find fairly likable and affable, the degree to which he seeks to undermine some of the foundations of the great city of New York and the foundations of what makes our country great, it is insidious in ways that go far beyond what a normal Democrat’s bad policy is.
SPEAKER 03 :
When somebody doesn’t denounce the expression, globalize the intifada, When somebody is perfectly fine with posing for a photograph, smiling with a jihadist, a guy who was an unindicted co-conspirator in the first World Trade Center bombing, these aren’t bad ideas. This is a bad person. This is terrible for New York. It’s terrible for the country.
SPEAKER 02 :
Hey, I want to – let’s end – Real quick, I’ve got the number before you take us down another wonderful rabbit hole. He has, as we’ve now documented, 666,000 followers. How many followers does AOC have? Take a stab. Two million. 12.7 million. She’s a big deal, man. She’s a big, big deal.
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, arguably, she’s a bigger deal than Zoran Mamdani. Oh, I mean, nationally. Of course she is.
SPEAKER 02 :
She’s a big national star.
SPEAKER 03 :
But see, doesn’t he replace her as the face of the Democrats?
SPEAKER 02 :
No, no, no, of course not. Any more than Rudy Giuliani. The mayor of New York City is a very, very big thing. Zoran Mamdani, if he wins, will become one of the seven or eight most significant Democrats in the country. Maybe one of five, but number one, dude.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay. All right. Well, I think you know why he’s going to be No.
SPEAKER 1 :
1?
SPEAKER 03 :
Because we’re going to make him No.
SPEAKER 1 :
1.
SPEAKER 03 :
We’re going to make sure he’s the creator.
SPEAKER 02 :
We’re going to offer him so much, the light of attention will be shining so brightly on him, you won’t know what hit him. It is true.
SPEAKER 03 :
Think about this. Before I go on to the next rabbit hole, as you put it, it is true, though, if he wins— Isn’t he going to face some of the most massive, enormous pushback of any mayor in the history of the country?
SPEAKER 02 :
He will, and I hope it will matter. Did you watch J.B. Pritzker on with Brett Baier last night? Oh, you bet I did. It was a spanking. People think they go on Brett Baier. It’s like, I’m not going on Hannity. It’s not going to be so partisan. And by the way, it’s not. Brett Baird destroyed J.B. Pritzker with nothing but objective facts. The reason I bring that up is J.B. Pritzker is a blight on America. He is a horrible governor. There are so many Democrats who are just outright horrible and we shine the light of attention on them and it’s not like they buckle. It’s not like they wither and go away. So I don’t, yes, we will shine all kinds of attention on the ways in which Mayor Mom Donnie, I hope, destroys New York, but I I hope it’ll matter, but I don’t know that it necessarily will.
SPEAKER 03 :
Pritzker is clearly, clearly puffing up his considerable chest to run for president. This is a guy who I think wants to have – he has absolute national aspirations. And what they’re doing is they’re trying to be Trump 2.0. They’re trying to be the Democrat version of Trump. To call ICE officers – Nazis to say that they need to be arrested. Some of them, Lori Lightfoot, they’re saying, let’s start arresting them. Let’s start impounding their cars. Look, I appreciate Pam Bondi last night. She announced on Fox her favorite go-to place to go. Pam Bondi again saying, look, we’re going to get all of their records. You impede… These are law enforcement officers. You know what I think part of the problem is? We call them ICE agents. And I don’t like that term, even though that might be technically correct. It’s like super agent, you know, 006. Secret agent, exactly. They’re officers. They’re law enforcement. If you’re a cop in Grapevine, Texas, you have camaraderie with an ICE officer in New York City. Right.

SPEAKER 03 :
That’s a wrap for a Friday. We’ll be in New York City on Monday and then winging our way to Israel next week. I hope you can join us then. In the meantime, I hope you have a terrific weekend. Be safe. Keep fighting the good fight. I’m Mike Gallagher. God bless America.
