Right News round Up, Information Overload, our toll free. 3 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:08,840 Speaker 1: It's eight hundred and nine for one Sean. You want 4 00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:11,479 Speaker 1: to be a part of the program. Listen to Jen Saki, 5 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:16,040 Speaker 1: the chief propagandists circling back and attacking Trump for his 6 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:20,880 Speaker 1: comments on Vladimir. Listen to what Jen Saki says, have 7 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:24,400 Speaker 1: any reaction to former President Trump calling Putin's moved yesterday 8 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:29,159 Speaker 1: genius and smart. Well, as a matter of policy, we 9 00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 1: try not to take advice from anyone who praised his 10 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 1: president Putin and his military strategy, which I believe is 11 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 1: what happened there. So there's a bit of a different tactic, 12 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 1: a bit of a different approach, and that's probably why 13 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 1: President Biden and not his predecessor, was able to rally 14 00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: the world and the global community and taking steps against 15 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,599 Speaker 1: against Russia's aggression. None of this would have happened had 16 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 1: Joe kept Donald Trump's economic and energy policies. None of it. 17 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 1: I mean, this is utter madness. We had a record 18 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 1: of illegal immigrants and of the entering the country because 19 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:08,080 Speaker 1: Joe Biden abandoned Trump's secure boarders and instead instituted process 20 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 1: and release. He couldn't even have enough tests available going 21 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: into the third year of our pandemic. Around Christmas, we 22 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 1: were running out of COVID tests, running out of monoclonal antibodies. 23 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 1: He's never warped speeded the production of these anti virals 24 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: that so many doctors talk about. All of this is preventable. 25 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 1: You know, we wouldn't be paying a buck fifty more 26 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 1: a gallon. We would still be energy independent, We'd still 27 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: be a net exporter of energy. You know, Vladimir Putin 28 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 1: would have to think twice knowing that America could meet 29 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 1: the needs of our Western, European and NATO allies energy wise, 30 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: and they wouldn't need Vladimir Putin Instead, what does Joe do? 31 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: He cuts production all across the board. And what's the 32 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: net result of that, the predictable result. Oh, he takes 33 00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 1: our allies and he pushes them right into the arms 34 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: of Vladimir Putin because they need his energy because it 35 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: is the lifeblood of their economy. And then every time 36 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 1: he talks, he makes it worse because Joe Biden is 37 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: looking at a well, a cognitive mess, a mumbling, bumbling idiot, 38 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 1: and there's nothing He's gonna do, that's gonna in any 39 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: way stop this aggression. Remember it was Joe Biden that 40 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 1: blocked the Keystone XL pipeline. It was Joe Biden that 41 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: stopped new drilling efforts in Alaska, not just dan More, 42 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 1: but in other places in Alaska, put all of it 43 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 1: on a permanent hold. Joe Biden disrupted new exploration and 44 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: development auctions for the entire country. Joe Biden capitulating to 45 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: the New Green Deal climate change cult caucus known as 46 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 1: the Democratic Socialist Party, but he suspended new exploration on 47 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 1: federal lance. He hurt the American liquefied natural gas production 48 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: by lifting sanctions on nord Stream too. He helped make 49 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,959 Speaker 1: Russia rich again. He put Star allies, are NATO allies, 50 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: and our Western European allies right into the arms of 51 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: Vladimir Putin because of his utter dependence and capitulation to 52 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 1: the most radical wing of this new new radical New 53 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 1: Green Deal Democratic Socialist Party. It's insane match slap by 54 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 1: the way, he has come out with a new book 55 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: is a front of the program the desecrators, defeating the 56 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 1: cancel culture mob, reclaiming one nation under God. He's also 57 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 1: well known as the organizer of Cepack is back on 58 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: the program, Matt. Always good to have you. Congrats on 59 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: the book. We put it up on It's up on 60 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: Amazon dot com, bookstores everywhere, and we put it on 61 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 1: Hannity dot com. How are you, Thanks, Sean. I appreciate 62 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: you all your help with the book, because I think 63 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,119 Speaker 1: you know we wrote the book. Is I just can't 64 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: believe what I'm seeing and what we're experiencing as a 65 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 1: country is I would never would have predicted any of this. 66 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: You're right, the enemy is no longer hidden in the dark, 67 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: but instead operates in broad daylight. It's attacks on Americans 68 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: are clear. It's intensifying, can so culture wokeness, public shaming, 69 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: urban violence, critical race theory. The enemy also seeks to 70 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: undermine the sacredness of human life, fails to provide basic 71 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: protection for the lives of the unborn. And then I 72 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,679 Speaker 1: would add to that everything I said about the border, 73 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: the socialist economic policies, giving up energy independence, horrible COVID management. 74 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: More people died in twenty twenty one than twenty twenty 75 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: and I can keep going. Yeah, and the assault on 76 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 1: our children. You know, we're the only country on the 77 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 1: face of the globe. That is teaching their children in 78 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: our schools to hate their own country, to think that 79 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: so systematically racist, that is irredeemable. To quote Hillary Clinton, 80 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: you know you think about all this and you can't 81 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: believe it. I said the other day on a podcast 82 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 1: that I don't even use the word conservative. I'm an 83 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 1: American who loves our founding unless our founding principles. Even 84 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,799 Speaker 1: though it's been an imperfect country, it's the greatest country 85 00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: in the face of the globe. And I'm not just 86 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,840 Speaker 1: saying that way the patriotic flag. You know, freedom will 87 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: die on this globe without American. By the way, you 88 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 1: were talking about American energy. That's the lifeblood of the 89 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 1: whole thing. You know, they cut off our ability to 90 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 1: be independent from an energy perspective. It doesn't just hurt American, 91 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: it's economy and it hurts all freedom loving because we've 92 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 1: done nothing but empower China and Russia with our fossil 93 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 1: fuel policy. That Biden's stifling of our fossil fuels. You know, 94 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 1: if you want to help NATO and Western Europe, it's 95 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 1: not that complicated. Ad Rick Perry on Hannity last night, 96 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 1: former Energy Secretary former governor of Texas, smart guy, good 97 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: friend of mine. And we have more oil, more gas, 98 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 1: more energy than all of these other countries combined. And 99 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: by Joe Biden artificially reducing the world's supply of energy, 100 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: he's single handedly, while demand remains consistent, he's single handedly 101 00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: himself has pushed prices up. It's impacted in plation, and 102 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: now it's impacting world security, our own security even and 103 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: certainly our allies security. Yeah, that's completely right. And you know, 104 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: their their ideology is to prevent people from riding, you know, 105 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: filling up their trucks and driving around or their minivans 106 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 1: or their delivery vehicles, because they think that that harms 107 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 1: our environment through climate change. And what they're really doing is, 108 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: you know, making it impossible for an average working family 109 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 1: or working van or working woman to do what it 110 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 1: takes to put to pay their bills and put food 111 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,600 Speaker 1: on the table. By the way, when energy prices go up, 112 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: the thing that follows it immediately our food prices. So 113 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 1: this whole supply chain disruption, which started with a lot 114 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 1: of stupid policies like mandates, is being exacerbated by every 115 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: simple thing they do. But the book goes into the 116 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 1: fact that behind all of this are these agitators on 117 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 1: the left, these Marxists, who actually don't agree with the 118 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 1: idea of America. Which is why I say I've kind 119 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 1: of chucked this idea of Yes, I cheer the teapack 120 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: in the American Conservative Union. Being a conservative is an 121 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: important thing, but the battle line is different now. Now 122 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: it's just about can we even all agree that America 123 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: is worth defending, and that her children are worth educating 124 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: in a proper way, and that her parents aren't domestic terrorists, 125 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: and that our founders don't need to be smeared with 126 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: blood and ripped down, but they need to be Their 127 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 1: lessons need to be taught once again in our schools. 128 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 1: I think a winning message, and I think we saw 129 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: this play out in Virginia with Glenn Youngcan's campaign is 130 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 1: schools and what our kids are being taught, not looking 131 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 1: at parents' involvement in the children's education as potentially being 132 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 1: domestic terrorism. I think the idea of school choice is 133 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 1: something every conservative and Republican ought to embrace and own. 134 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: I think law and order and safety and security ought 135 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: to be another thing they ought to own. Lower taxes, 136 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: secure borders, energy independence, piece through strength. These are simple 137 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: basic principles of conservatism. And if they achieve those promises, 138 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: make those promises, fulfill those promises, they can be in 139 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 1: power for as long as they want. Yeah. So Republicans 140 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: are on the verge of a big victory in November, 141 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: and I think a lot of activists that are at 142 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 1: tea Packer are worried that the Republican Party ones that 143 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: has majorities will do that same careful, you know, biting 144 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 1: their nails, nervous approach to standing up Brady through what 145 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 1: we think. We also have people that say, like these 146 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: never trumpers who are going to gather opposite teapack in 147 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: the swamp, the Liz Cheney crowd and say, yeah, but 148 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 1: we're you're just against Biden. You don't have a vigorous agenda. 149 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: I think what you just described, Sean is our agenda. 150 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: There are those Trump policies. They were wildly popular. Even 151 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: when people were opposed to them, they eventually realized they 152 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 1: were working. It's undeniable that it helped people at the 153 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 1: beginning run in our economy, and we got we got 154 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 1: to package those up and go sell those and then 155 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: we got to implement the move we get power. Look 156 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 1: at the polls. You got a new poll, a dramatic shift, 157 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 1: and Democrats used to hold a pretty wide advantage in 158 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: terms of voting with Hispanic Americans. When you break things 159 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 1: down demographically, now we have a poll out showing that 160 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 1: in fact, Democrats and Republicans have pretty much reached parody 161 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 1: on in that demographic. Five thirty eight is pointing out 162 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 1: Democrats support for Biden is evaporating, that that's his own party. 163 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 1: That's never good. Inflation by far the biggest concern by 164 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 1: independence in this country. Michael Bloomberg is warning of a 165 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: mid term wipe out for the Democratic Party. We have 166 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 1: an Emerson Pole Biden forty two percent approval and the 167 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: GOP as a nine point lead in the generic congressional 168 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 1: ballot numbers. And you add all of that and you 169 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: can see that things are shifting and shifting dramatically. And 170 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: none if it surprises me, because I can't name one 171 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: thing he's done successfully well. Neither can sixty percent of 172 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: the American people, which is an enduring poll number. And 173 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 1: you know, I look at a couple of indicators. The 174 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: first thing is you're right about Hispanics. This is the 175 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 1: third major poll that shows that Hispanics are breaking about 176 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: evenly between Democrats and Republicans. So I ask you, Sean, 177 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: you know, I'm married to Mercia Latina, and I and 178 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 1: her big, wonderful family, which I love almost all the time. Um, 179 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 1: they and they'll all be You're gonna get by the way, 180 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 1: I'm on her side on this. You're gonna get in 181 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:40,679 Speaker 1: so much trouble for that comment. And she and absolutely 182 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 1: she got the worst part of this deal with you. 183 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 1: So you should be very grateful. Only the people that 184 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 1: really know me how raw deal she really got. But 185 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: her family will be extending upon me here in Orlando. 186 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 1: And the fact is this, you know, this whole Black 187 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 1: Lives Matter Incorporated desire by funded by white liberals to 188 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: destroy our racial harmony in this country and to make 189 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: the Republican Party the racist party, even though it was 190 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: the Republican Party that was founded to fight to end 191 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,319 Speaker 1: slavery and gives full sivil rights, including voting rights to 192 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: black people. The voter idea was the black person's friend, 193 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: and they've tried to turn that into racism. And what 194 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 1: are we seeing in these polls amongst people of color, Hispanics, Blacks, 195 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,680 Speaker 1: they're turning our way. They don't actually buy this idea 196 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: that the Republican Party's the racist party, because they've actually 197 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 1: experienced our policies and it worked better for them. This 198 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: Democratic coalition is on the verge of unraveling. All right, 199 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: quick break, well, come right back.

Now we do have 225 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: some good speakers there, so you didn't leave us in 226 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,319 Speaker 1: the lurch. Okay, now you can make the announcement. Who's 227 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: really taken my place?

Any predictions on 232 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 1: the straw pole this year usually runs away with it. Yeah, 233 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: it's the one thing everyone's predicting will probably do one 234 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,320 Speaker 1: in Dallas as well. I think, uh, the hometown boy 235 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,079 Speaker 1: Roun de Santis will probably do well in the straw 236 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: pole because you know, let's face it, let's give him 237 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 1: his due. He's made every right move and all these 238 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 1: big questions, and he's been he's led the way as 239 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,680 Speaker 1: the as the governor Ford a kind of a nation's governer. 240 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 1: Isn't an amazing the bench that Republicans have, Um de Santis, 241 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 1: you know, abbed Christie Nome, I mean, all these great governors, Um, 242 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 1: it's all these great senators. Ted Cruz, I mean, I'm 243 00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 1: gonna forget people, and I don't want to do that. 244 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,680 Speaker 1: But and then you look at the Democrats. What's their bench? 245 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, Pete Boodha, Judge Amy Klobuchar, Hillary Clinton, Well, 246 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 1: they have a lot of plus eighty five year olds. 247 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 1: They're really doing well on that. In Matt department, we 248 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 1: have one panel of depec. When we talked about who's 249 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: going to be the Democratic nominee in twenty twenty two, 250 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 1: we call it put him to twenty four, twenty twenty four, sorry, 251 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 1: put him, put him to bed, lock her up, and 252 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: send her to the border. Their options are slim Sean, Well, listen, 253 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: I think that that we've got a first win this year, 254 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 1: and then twenty twenty four hopefully takes care of itself. Unfortunately, 255 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 1: there's not a single accomplishment we can point to as 256 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 1: it relates to Biden. But Matt, I look forward to 257 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 1: being back with you soon. Congrats on the book.

I was, and um, 323 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 1: and your level of decompression is a thousand times faster 324 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 1: than there were. Let's be fair, considering considering that I 325 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,439 Speaker 1: talked to you for the entire time that I was 326 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 1: there working. Uh, and then I it's it's an understatement, Um, 327 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 1: but I worked most of that time. And it's fine. 328 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,120 Speaker 1: It is what it is. I would say a lot 329 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 1: of it. But um, but all of that to say, 330 00:18:57,640 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 1: the time that I did have there when I was 331 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 1: able to, you know, sort of taking it like, you know, 332 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 1: we went and saw the mountains, and we saw the 333 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 1: scenic overlook and you know, they have these beautiful ponderosa trees. 334 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 1: So like when you walk outside, I'm not interested in 335 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 1: the fact that you love. No, wait, I need to 336 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:15,360 Speaker 1: tell you something. I need to tell you this because 337 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: this is gonna blow your mind. So the ponderosa trees 338 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 1: that have red bark and you go near them and 339 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 1: everything smells amazing. So I'm with this guy, Dakota, and 340 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,479 Speaker 1: he was amazing, and he took us on this scenic 341 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 1: drive and he's showing us and he's an avid hunter. 342 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 1: So he's talking about all these things that I'm just like, 343 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,119 Speaker 1: I'm disgusted by it all. He's like, what's wrong. I'm like, 344 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,879 Speaker 1: why hire assassins? And it's called you know, supermarkets and 345 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,640 Speaker 1: you know, and he starts laughing. Anyway, So but he's 346 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 1: telling me go up to the tree and smell. It 347 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: smells like vanilla. It's a natural fire retardant. And he said, 348 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 1: you know the acorns that drop on the ground, can 349 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 1: we stand up to four hundred degrees? And I was 350 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: like what it was like mind blowing the things that 351 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:52,879 Speaker 1: I was learning, you know. So he's cut me up 352 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,120 Speaker 1: with this tree and I'm smelling the bark and I'm 353 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: like this is He just looks at me. He's like, 354 00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 1: can I take a picture of you doing that because 355 00:19:58,280 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 1: you're like inside the bark. I was like, oh, I'm 356 00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 1: just it's curious if you were telling me the truth 357 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:02,880 Speaker 1: or not.

And it was I'll tell you one 443 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 1: great Bob Beckel story. So Bob Beckel had the curse jar. 444 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 1: They actually showed it. They did a beautiful tribute to 445 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,679 Speaker 1: him on the five yesterday and they showed the the 446 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 1: whenever he would curse on air, he'd have to put 447 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: money in the jar because he couldn't control him. All right. 448 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:52,919 Speaker 1: So anyway, our boss at the time was Roger Els, 449 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 1: who created Fox and hired me back in nineteen ninety 450 00:24:56,520 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 1: six and changed my life. U And anyway, so Roger, 451 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 1: he dropped an F bomb on the air, and that 452 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 1: night he was on my show when he had just 453 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:12,159 Speaker 1: gotten out of the boss's office, told that's got to stop. 454 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 1: We can't have this on the air. And Bob comes 455 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 1: on my show that night. I get him riled up. 456 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 1: He dropped another one on the air or it was 457 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,879 Speaker 1: bad whatever, I'd think it was the F bomb and 458 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 1: he literally, you know, he was in the green room 459 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 1: after the show, and I'm like, what did you not 460 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 1: hear a word? What was said to you today? Are 461 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 1: you out of your mind? And I could see that 462 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,920 Speaker 1: tears were welling up in his eyes. He didn't mean 463 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 1: to do it, it just was, you know, he was older, 464 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 1: old school, you know, grew up kind of a tough 465 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 1: kid in the streets, a fighter, street fighter, and it 466 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 1: was more his way. And so I tried to get 467 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:57,640 Speaker 1: ahead of it, and I made a phone call, told 468 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: the boss what had happened, and I said, he's very set. 469 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: He thinks he's getting fired. And in a very very unique, 470 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 1: funny way, all right, tell the bleeping, bleeping, bleeping idiot 471 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,919 Speaker 1: that I'm not going to fire him yet, but he 472 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 1: needs to stop it. And I was able to tell Bob, 473 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 1: who thought he was fired, that he's not getting fired 474 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,679 Speaker 1: that day. But I mean, he was just a character. 475 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:25,400 Speaker 1: He before every show on the five, he would sit 476 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 1: out outside and even after the five, I'd walk over 477 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 1: from radio and he'd be sitting outside the Fox News 478 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:34,360 Speaker 1: Channel building. He'd be smoking his cigars and talk to everybody. 479 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,680 Speaker 1: Everybody would stop and say, hey, Bob, what's up? Bob? 480 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: Uncle Bob was sitting out there. He smoked these little cigars, 481 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 1: baby cigars in between shows or whatever, in between TV hits, 482 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 1: and he'd just sit there and he'd chat with anybody 483 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,439 Speaker 1: and he'd do it for hours. And he's just a 484 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 1: character and he's full of life.

When 512 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:36,880 Speaker 1: he wouldn't come over, I would start worrying about him. 513 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, why is he? Why are you 514 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 1: not here? I'm telling you I Bob was. Bob was 515 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 1: one of the first people I ever booked on the 516 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 1: show and when I started, and he was such a 517 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 1: ball breaker, so funny, and he used to come in 518 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 1: and you go, check up, kid, It's not that bad. 519 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 1: It's just the world breaking around us.
