Published 5 days, 10 hours ago
Description
In this high-energy episode of The Stone Zone, guest hosts Jake Novak and Michael Cohen step in for Roger Stone to deliver an unfiltered reality check on national security and New York's wildest political battles.First, the duo tackles the staggering news that 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed finally has a trial date at Gitmo—scheduled for June 5th, 2028—leading to a fiery discussion on why a 27-year delay is a total miscarriage of justice. Michael Cohen draws from his personal experience in federal prison to weigh in on Guantanamo's conditions, while both hosts warn of the legal circus that would have occurred had the Obama administration succeeded in granting KSM a civilian trial in New York. Moving to local politics, they tear into New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani (dubbed "Mayor Moron") for his selective outrage, calling out his public condolences for a Rikers Island meat-cleaver murder suspect while completely snubbing the Israeli Day parade.
