John Catsimatidis | Red Apple Media Owner & Operator | 02-16-26
Red Apple Media Owner & Operator John Catsimatidis joins Sid live in-studio for his weekly Monday morning appearance on the program to talk about how national and international media are seeking WABC’s perspective on what’s happening in New York, including a documentary on socialism and a visit from the Los Angeles Times. He recounts a Fox Business Zoom appearance from the Ritz-Carlton where he complained the hotel carried MSNBC but not Fox Business, prompting calls from hotel management and corporate about changing the channel policy. Catsimatidis also talks about New York City politics and concerns about tax increases driving a continued exodus of wealthy residents, mentioning attending the New York police foundation breakfast with Jessica Tisch and others. He comments on troubles in legacy media like layoffs at the Washington Post, and addresses his real estate interests in St. Petersburg and Coney Island, saying he is cautious about further investing in New York and calling proposed Coney Island small-business funding ‘chump change,’ while noting a plan for ‘giveaway supermarkets.’ Learn more about your ad choices.

Scott Pressler | Conservative Activist | 02-16-26
Conservative activist Scott Pressler makes his return to the program to discuss his voter turnout and election integrity work and the SAVE America Act, which Pressler argues must be brought to the Senate floor and passed to avoid repeating GOP legislative failures after 2016 and risking losses in the 2026 midterms. Pressler says he will escalate pressure on senators who are not supporting the bill—citing Lisa Murkowski, Mitch McConnell, and John Thune—by organizing handwritten letter campaigns while the Senate is on break and later moving to rallies and in-person visits, with planned trips to Alaska, Kentucky, and South Dakota. He notes Susan Collins supports the act, expresses disappointment that private citizens are working harder than Congress to deliver on 2024 promises, and says the situation makes him consider running for office. Pressler adds he has not spoken directly with President Trump recently but spent a week on Capitol Hill meeting over 80 members of Congress to build relationships and promote election integrity reform.

Tom Emmer | Majority Whip of the United States House of Representatives | 02-16-26
Congressman Tom Emmer joins Sid live in-studio to touch upon Sid's frustration about not being invited yet to next week's State of the Union speech in Washington, D.C. before he speaks on the backlash over comments that the Super Bowl halftime show should be in English or at least provide translations, arguing the NFL’s choices were driven by money and deals, including with Amazon, and expressing a preference for more familiar music. Emmer describes being in New York for a wedding and doing media rounds on Presidents’ Day, praises several New York Republicans as hardworking, and harshly criticizes Democratic members such as Nadler, Raskin, and Swalwell. Sid and Tom talk about State of the Union decorum, including Democrats’ shirts and paddles, the possibility of enforcing rules more strictly. The conversation then shifts to a looming DHS funding standoff and potential impacts on TSA workers, while Emmer argues Democrats are disconnected from voters on border security, cites large numbers of people pulled from Minneapolis and thousands of migrant children allegedly lost by the Biden administration, and says Democrats broke promises on a bipartisan bill that already included reforms and body-camera funding, leaving them with no message beyond opposition to Trump.

Rich Lowry | Editor-In-Chief of National Review | 02-16-26

Sid and Rich also complain about nonstop coverage of the Nancy Guthrie missing-person case despite no new information. The discussion ends with coverage of the DHS government shutdown that will disrupt TSA and air travel; Lowry says ICE funding would remain intact and suggests Republicans might concede on items like training, uniforms, and visible badge numbers but should not agree to unmasking agents or requiring judicial warrants that would hinder interior enforcement.

Alex Traiman | CEO of Jewish News Syndicate | 02-16-26
Alex Traiman, CEO of Jewish News Syndicate, joins Sid live from Israel to talk about Israeli player Deni Avdija becoming an NBA All-Star, noting his smart, all-around game and that many Israelis likely watched his All-Star game appearance via replay due to the late start time in Israel. The conversation shifts to a report that Spike Lee wore pro-Palestinian apparel at an All-Star event, which Traiman denounces. Sid and Alex then discuss Israel-U.S. views on Iran, arguing that Iranian agreements are unreliable, citing the NPT, the JCPOA, and skepticism that any verifiable deal can be reached; Traiman references a prior 12-day war and U.S. participation in “Operation Midnight Hammer” targeting Fordo, and suggests any future strike could be a joint U.S.-Israel operation, emphasizing Israel’s intelligence capabilities. They also address President Trump’s criticism of Israeli President Isaac Herzog for not pardoning Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, with Traiman saying Trump’s remarks surprised people but were significant in countering claims that Netanyahu’s Washington visit had failed and in underscoring Trump’s view of Netanyahu as a strong wartime leader.
