Speaker 1: Hey, it's Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity. Normally, normally
Speaker 1: hear me on our big flagship station seven ten w
Speaker 1: R in New York. Sewan will be back tomorrow. We're
Speaker 1: going to talk to Curtis Sliwa, who we'd like to
Speaker 1: see become the next mayor of New York. We're not
Speaker 1: gonna talk to him now because.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm here's here's a problem. It's not a problem.
Speaker 2: It's a good problem. Curtis Sliwa has today opened his
Speaker 2: eleventh campaign headquarters today in Queens. So he told me
Speaker 2: when I called, it may take once or twice. So
Speaker 2: we've called about seventeen times. We're gonna keep trying and
Speaker 2: we'll get them one.
Speaker 1: All right, we'll get it. We'll find them. You know,
Speaker 1: you know you got three candidates. Now you've got the
Speaker 1: communist socialist wacko mom, Donnie, Mom, Donnie.
Speaker 2: Or me Donnie, it's easier or is.
Speaker 1: Al Sharpton called him, man, dammy, No, that's what he
Speaker 1: called them.
Speaker 2: I'm aware, thank you.
Speaker 1: So we got the communist socialist, or you got Andrew Cuomo,
Speaker 1: who was a disaster as governor, caused the crime wave
Speaker 1: with his no bail no jail. He closed a lot
Speaker 1: of prisons, let the prisoners out. He redid the parole
Speaker 1: board with all these left wing wackos that let out
Speaker 1: all the prisoners, including forty six cop killers. He closed
Speaker 1: Indian Point that was twenty five percent of our power.
Speaker 1: That nuclear plan, I mean, I can go down. All
Speaker 1: this did more to screw up things. So you got
Speaker 1: the communist, you got the bumbling, awful governor, and then
Speaker 1: you got Curtis Sliwa, who we'd like to see get elected.
Speaker 1: And we're going to talk to Curtis.
Speaker 2: But in the interim, if you like, we do have
Speaker 2: a beautifully compiled montage by our illustrious engineer Ethan of
Speaker 2: Kami Donnie.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, this is mom Dommy. Now he's a great talker.
Speaker 1: You see him in these two Dona. He's good in
Speaker 1: the debate because he talks like this. He talks very fast,
Speaker 1: and he talks very quickly. And when a guy talks
Speaker 1: this best, you think he must be very smart. Then
Speaker 1: Pomo comes down and goes, mister Mom, Donnie is uh
Speaker 1: uh has failed policy, talks so slow, and Curtis is
Speaker 1: the problem. The race will probably be decided this Thursday
Speaker 1: night in two days, the first mayoral debate will take place.
Speaker 1: Donnie's a good debater. Curtis is a professional debater for
Speaker 1: thirty five years. Cuomo talks very slow, and I think
Speaker 1: he's gonna have a problem. He's gonna look very weak
Speaker 1: compared to these two guys. Now, what Curtis needs to do,
Speaker 1: He's gonna have to land some real knockout punches and
Speaker 1: that could change the whole race. I don't know if
Speaker 1: he can do it, but he's going to try. But
Speaker 1: if you don't know this, mom, Donnie, take a listen
Speaker 1: to this wacko and what he sounds like.
Speaker 3: Dose, I just make you uncomfortable.
Speaker 4: Like the phrase globaliz intifada from the river to the sea,
Speaker 4: does that make you come uncomfortable?
Speaker 5: I know people for whom those things mean very different things.
Speaker 6: And to me, ultimately, what I hear in so many
Speaker 6: is a desperate desire for equality and equal rights. In
Speaker 6: standing up for palicy and human rights.
Speaker 7: I am in favor of defunding the police. As mayor
Speaker 7: New York City would arrest Benjamin Netanyahu. And then it
Speaker 7: comes to making buses free and universal childcare, increasing the
Speaker 7: top corporate tax rate of New York to match that
Speaker 7: of New Jersey that raises five billion dollars and increasing
Speaker 7: income taxes on the top one percent of New Yorkers
Speaker 7: who make a million dollars or more a year by
Speaker 7: two percent.
Speaker 5: City run grocery stores.
Speaker 7: I've proposed a pilot program of one store in each borough.
Speaker 7: These are five stores in total. The total cost of
Speaker 7: this is sixty million dollars.
Speaker 2: Do you like capitalism?
Speaker 7: No, I have many critiques of capitalism.
Speaker 2: You're a proud democratic socialist. Do you think that is
Speaker 2: a platform that would work for other candidates running in
Speaker 2: other parts of the country.
Speaker 5: Absolutely.
Speaker 7: So violence is an artificial construction. I have to be
Speaker 7: very clear what is happening here the attorneys that is violence.
Speaker 2: Do you think that billionaires have a right to exist.
Speaker 5: I don't think that we should have billionaire because, frankly,
Speaker 5: it is so much money. We have to continue to
Speaker 5: elect more socialists, and we have to ensure that we
Speaker 5: are unapologetic about our socialists. But then there are also
Speaker 5: other issues that we firmly believe in, whether it's BDS
Speaker 5: right or whether it's the end goal of seizing the
Speaker 5: means of production.
Speaker 4: Do you condemn that phrase globalize the intifada.
Speaker 5: That's not language that I use.
Speaker 7: If we want to end the housing crisis, the solution
Speaker 7: has to be moving toward the full decommodification of housing.
Speaker 7: We have a budget of close to six billion dollars
Speaker 7: for the New York City Police Department, and that is
Speaker 7: an astronomical figure. I think in this first year we
Speaker 7: need to take a billion dollars out of that budget,
Speaker 7: and I think that we need to reinvest that money
Speaker 7: into social services. Would life be better if we just
Speaker 7: abolish private property and transformed our society into a more collective,
Speaker 7: egalitarian one.
Speaker 5: I think it probably would be better.
Speaker 2: Our prisons absolutely.
Speaker 7: What pers do they serve?
Speaker 8: Forget the extremists, It's simple. No one haunts with an
Speaker 8: assault rifle. No one needs ten bullets to kill a deer.
Speaker 1: Uh, that's not much of a choice. That's why you
Speaker 1: gotta vote for Curtis Lee. When you see this, Mam
Speaker 1: Donnie sounds very smart to a lot of people. He says,
Speaker 1: like the way Tomaun of housing. He said, we have
Speaker 1: to end the decommodification of housing. The commodification of housing
Speaker 1: must end. It sounds brilliant. I don't know what the
Speaker 1: hell it means. I don't know what is that. I
Speaker 1: don't even know what it is, but it sure sounds smart.
Speaker 2: Now, you do know he lives in a rent control apartment. Yeah,
Speaker 2: the commodification sees you're working up beautifully for him.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So next time you talk to a real estate
Speaker 1: broker about a house, you say, is this commodified or
Speaker 1: it's not commodified. I don't know what it is, but
Speaker 1: you know. And everything he's saying is impossible. The free buses.
Speaker 1: The Mayor of New York has absolutely no authority over
Speaker 1: the buses. They're run by the state, by the MTA.
Speaker 1: Everything he's proposed and can't do and hear on crime fighting,
Speaker 1: crime is racist, prisons, everything he doesn't want to arrest.
Speaker 1: The only person wants to arrest is not Yahoo. He
Speaker 1: has said he will arrest Benjamin Nutt Yahoo if he
Speaker 1: comes to New York. I mean, it's just absolutely ridiculous.
Speaker 2: But think of it this way. This is a man
Speaker 2: who is saying the most important thing to him is
Speaker 2: equal rights for all, And then he says for the
Speaker 2: people of Palestine. I'm like, but that's not for all.
Speaker 2: For all is for all? He will writes for every
Speaker 2: He doesn't give a rip about anybody else.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm talking about all the bad things. But I
Speaker 1: forgot to mention he's a total anti Semite. Hates his Yeah,
Speaker 1: total anti.
Speaker 2: He's an anti Semite, he's an anti Christian, he's anti American.
Speaker 1: Yeah, hates everything and everybody. But he talks very fast,
Speaker 1: and he talks to you little kinds of fancy words
Speaker 1: like the commodification of housing. And it sounds like he and.
Speaker 2: His stupid wife is praising, you know, Palestinian leaders and
Speaker 2: members of Hamas and mourning their death. Oh my god,
Speaker 2: this be a lovely household.
Speaker 1: And like most socialists, but they call him Champagne socialists,
Speaker 1: he lives like a king. The family has an incredible
Speaker 1: not even the state, a compound of the states, and
Speaker 1: a very wealthy guy. But that's how socialism works. They
Speaker 1: have everything, you have nothing, and gotta stop this guy.
Speaker 1: I think it'll happen Thursday, and I have a feeling
Speaker 1: Curtis is ready. He will hopefully some knockout punches in
Speaker 1: that debate. Now, the problem is it's on Channel four
Speaker 1: here in New York, which is local television. Nobody watches
Speaker 1: that anymore. Say a Curtis has to be dazzling in
Speaker 1: the debate. Then, b you gotta hope it goes viral
Speaker 1: so people.
Speaker 2: See see now, why doesn't the New York Post stream
Speaker 2: that on their website? Like if New York Post stream that,
Speaker 2: I would watch it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I'm sure it'll be on YouTube. It'll stream
Speaker 1: on YouTube and other places. But you gotta hope, and
Speaker 1: nobody watches a whole debate anymore. You gotta hope this
Speaker 1: great moments and the clips go viral. Now down, of course,
Speaker 1: Sharpman would say, man, dammy, what he does now? He
Speaker 1: talks real fast and gets into these word salads. Not
Speaker 1: the drunken Kamala Harris word salad, but a very skillful
Speaker 1: word salad. So it sounds like he's answering, but he doesn't.
Speaker 1: He's agreed to do a Fox interview Fox News. That's
Speaker 1: the first time he's ever gone into the lions den.
Speaker 1: I don't know what his strategy is. He may want
Speaker 1: them to beat him up because with his crowd, if
Speaker 1: Fox gives him a hard time, it helps him. He'd
Speaker 1: like to get into a battle with Trump because with
Speaker 1: his voters, that would help him. But hey, the other
Speaker 1: thing this hour, at any moment, we might cut away
Speaker 1: to the white House because Charlie Kirk is being honored today.
Speaker 1: He's getting the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Today would have
Speaker 1: been his thirty second birthday. This is going to be
Speaker 1: in the East Room of the White House. They've decided
Speaker 1: to move it outside to the Rose Garden and we'll
Speaker 1: bring it to you live when it happens. Many many
Speaker 1: people assembled out there, but there's a lot of people coming,
Speaker 1: a lot of dignitaries, a lot of famous people, so
Speaker 1: they're a little delayed. It was supposed to happen at
Speaker 1: four o'clock. Yeah, so we'll take a break. If it happens,
Speaker 1: we'll bring it to you here, but it'd be a
Speaker 1: great moment today. It's Mark Simone here for Sean Handity.
Speaker 1: Make sure you follow me on Instagram. Mark Simone NYC
Speaker 1: at Instagram or also Twitter. We'll be back next hopefully
Speaker 1: we'll have Curtis and the Charlie Kirk tribute coming up
Speaker 1: on the Sean Hannity Show. Hey, it's Mark Simone here
Speaker 1: for Sean Hannity. We're gonna cut to the White House
Speaker 1: at some point. Big ceremony today to honor Charlie Kirk.
Speaker 1: It would have been his thirty second birthday, he'll get
Speaker 1: the Presidential Medal of Freedom. A lot of people are there.
Speaker 1: They've moved it outside because the sun is shining. Looks
Speaker 1: like a beautiful day in Washington. They'll have it at
Speaker 1: the new Rose Garden, which was just a lot of grass,
Speaker 1: and every time they'd have two hundred people stand on
Speaker 1: it, it would ruin the grass and it'd be a mess.
Speaker 1: Some days it'd be raining and mouddy and President Trump.
Speaker 1: If you watch the fake news, they said he paved
Speaker 1: it over, he put the time, paved it over with cement. No,
Speaker 1: it's the most beautiful tile. Looks like beautiful marble. It's
Speaker 1: really well done. It's the type of deck they have
Speaker 1: like they have in marks the drains. It's surrounded by drains.
Speaker 1: You know, if you don't know what you're doing, you
Speaker 1: put a few drains in. If you know what you're doing,
Speaker 1: you put hundreds of drains in so it never floods.
Speaker 1: And they're not just regular drains. Google this, Google Rose
Speaker 1: Garden drains. Take a look where the slits are in
Speaker 1: the drain. Trump had these specially made their American flags
Speaker 1: in the drain. American flags. They're absolutely beautiful magnificent and
Speaker 1: now they can have these. You know, you're inviting world
Speaker 1: leaders to the White House for various events, you need
Speaker 1: it to look incredible. You know, when he went to
Speaker 1: England with the dinner with Prince Charles, do you see
Speaker 1: what that room look like? It was amazing. Made the
Speaker 1: East room look like a seven to eleven or something.
Speaker 1: It was amazing. So he's trying to do this at
Speaker 1: the White House. He's going to add a ballroom, the
Speaker 1: most magnificent ballroom you've ever seen. I know, I know
Speaker 1: Democrats get all upset by this stuff, but you can't.
Speaker 1: It's the White House. It's got to be like a
Speaker 1: world class place. It can't be less like some municipal building.
Speaker 1: But so, Linda, what's going on. It's going to be
Speaker 1: a while, right.
Speaker 2: I think it's going to be a minute. I mean,
Speaker 2: Eric at Kirk, Charlie's widow only arrived at the White
Speaker 2: House at about quarter to four. It was supposed to
Speaker 2: start at four, So I think they'll probably be out
Speaker 2: there in the next you know, ten to fifteen minutes,
Speaker 2: and when they do, we will go to it. But
Speaker 2: you know, I just there's no reason for us to
Speaker 2: go to it, right, now we're just watching a bunch
Speaker 2: of folks find their seats and all that good stuff.
Speaker 1: One of the problems, if I may be Frank, is
Speaker 1: normally you'd go to the White House, you meet the President,
Speaker 1: he'd show you something like, hey, look at this, and yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's just a little conversation started. The President since he
Speaker 1: got there, has been decorating the White House with the
Speaker 1: Oval Office. There's so many things. He's got four hundred
Speaker 1: portraits on the wall, he's got all kinds of souvenirs things,
Speaker 1: he's got the Constitution.
Speaker 2: Well, as Katie pointed out, on the Wall of Fame,
Speaker 2: we have one very special.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, that's later. But in the Oval Office, he
Speaker 1: starts showing you stuff on the walls and there's like
Speaker 1: seventy five things. Now that takes an hour. Then there's
Speaker 1: this outside, there's that long corridor from the West Wing
Speaker 1: from the Oval Office, and it's just a white wall.
Speaker 1: You know you always saw president of Well, now he
Speaker 1: put portraits of every president on there, and he's adjusted
Speaker 1: the height of them so like as it gets to him,
Speaker 1: it's a little higher on the wall. And the final
Speaker 1: one is you think it's going to be Joe Biden.
Speaker 1: It's an auto pen, an actual auto pen portrait. So
Speaker 1: that's what delays these ceremonies. Instead of the two things
Speaker 1: they'll show you in the Oval office, now there's four
Speaker 1: hundred things before you even get there. And it's still
Speaker 1: going to be a great day and a great tribute
Speaker 1: to Charlie Kirk, well deserved. You know what he did.
Speaker 1: You think about it is the whole idea of on
Speaker 1: the college campus is you start debate, you hear both
Speaker 1: sides of the issue. That's what you're supposed to get
Speaker 1: when you go to college. That's what you're paying for
Speaker 1: your kid to have in college. Years ago, they eliminated
Speaker 1: all of that. They just became in doctrination camps. So
Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk was trying to do what the colleges should
Speaker 1: have been doing.
Speaker 2: But also what was interesting about Charlie Kirk was that
Speaker 2: when he had debate, and this is one of the
Speaker 2: things that I loved about what he did was he
Speaker 2: was like, Okay, yeah, sure, prove me wrong. Tell me
Speaker 2: where I went wrong. Tell me where I was racist,
Speaker 2: Tell me where I was fascist, Tell me where I
Speaker 2: said something that wasn't true. The problem with liberals, you know,
Speaker 2: as a rule, in my opinion is they come into
Speaker 2: the conversation with their talking points and they don't deviate.
Speaker 2: Those are the talking points. Like I'm hoping Thursday, Curtis
Speaker 2: Sliwa says to you know, mister, I suffered my whole life,
Speaker 2: Well how did you suffer? Because last time I checked,
Speaker 2: you come from money, you live in a rent controlled apartment.
Speaker 2: You don't know anything about running a business, you know.
Speaker 2: I mean, he really knows very little about very little.
Speaker 2: So I'm very curus there he is to see a
Speaker 2: real question asked and have a real debate, But there
Speaker 2: never is with liberals. They have one set of like
Speaker 2: talking points and that's it.
Speaker 1: No, they're not really into debating. And normally if you
Speaker 1: say something they don't agree with, you say, well I
Speaker 1: think Trump's doing a good job. They're like pitpolls all
Speaker 1: of a sudden screaming at you.
Speaker 2: But there's a great point when someone says, I can't
Speaker 2: believe that you voted for Trump. He's such a racist.
Speaker 2: I always do the same thing he is. Oh my god,
Speaker 2: I had no idea. Can you tell me what he did?
Speaker 2: I would never want to vote for a racist. And
Speaker 2: then they flip out that you're asking them to support
Speaker 2: their argument. They're not interested in supporting their argument. They're
Speaker 2: not interested in facts.
Speaker 1: No, but they watch MSNBC. They got all these fake
Speaker 1: arguments that can quote to you. So we'll take a
Speaker 1: break and then hopefully we'll bring you to Charlie Kirk,
Speaker 1: and then we'll get Curtis at some point. We hope
Speaker 1: he's still not answering.
Speaker 2: Well, like I said, he's at a brand new campaign headquarters.
Speaker 2: God bless him. It's his eleventh Yeah, and he's in
Speaker 2: Queen's and it's just go and write the voicemail. But
Speaker 2: I will keep trying to get him because he was very,
Speaker 2: very excited to talk to you. In fact, I think
Speaker 2: he's calling me now.
Speaker 1: All right, there he is. You see, we'll get him.
Speaker 1: We'll get Curtis on the air. He's the guy we
Speaker 1: want to win, so we'll talk to him. I don't know.
Speaker 1: We'll probably have Charlie Kirk's ceremony when we come back,
Speaker 1: and then at some point we'll get to Curtis on
Speaker 1: the show. It's Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity. Make
Speaker 1: sure you watch Hannity every night at nine o'clock on
Speaker 1: the Fox News channel, and of course check out the
Speaker 1: website Hannity dot com. Always great stories up there Hannity
Speaker 1: dot com. And you can check out my website, Mark
Speaker 1: Simone dot com or follow me on Twitter, x, Instagram, Facebook,
Speaker 1: all that stuff back in a moment, The Sean Hannity
Speaker 1: Show will continue.
Speaker 9: Now that we made some money for our sponsors, let's
Speaker 9: go back to making the liberals crazy.
Speaker 3: The handman is back on the radio right now.
Speaker 1: Hey, it's Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity. We're gonna
Speaker 1: bring you the ceremony that will take place probably moments
Speaker 1: the White House, the Rose Garden honoring Charlie Kirk. It'll
Speaker 1: be a big event at Barack Obama doing a lot
Speaker 1: of podcasts. Linda, have you had him on your podcast?
Speaker 2: I can't wait to have him on.
Speaker 1: Oh where do people find your podcast?
Speaker 2: At the Rogue Recap? Oh, okay, at Rogue Recap on X,
Speaker 2: at Linda Mick on X. And you can find me
Speaker 2: on the iHeart platform or wherever find podcasts.
Speaker 1: Or listened to very good podcast If I were Obama,
Speaker 1: I would do it, but instead he goes on the
Speaker 1: WTF podcast, which stands for you can fill in the blanks.
Speaker 1: That's Mark Marin's podcast. Did you see the video of Obama?
Speaker 2: He look very weird, dude, He's always looked weird, but
Speaker 2: even weirder.
Speaker 1: He's like all curled up and got his knees up
Speaker 1: in his chest and his arms all folded, and he's.
Speaker 2: In the field position. He's afraid of Michelle.
Speaker 1: It could be what it is. Take a listen, Take
Speaker 1: a listen. He's accusing Trump of everything.
Speaker 3: Here that is inherently corrupting.
Speaker 4: And so when you now start seeing the politicization of
Speaker 4: the military deliberately, right, we just landed in Chicago. That,
Speaker 4: uh what when you have what what looks like a
Speaker 4: deliberate and run around not just a concept, but a
Speaker 4: law that's been around for a long time posse comitatus
Speaker 4: that says, yeah, you don't use our military on domestic
Speaker 4: soil unless there is an extraordinary emergency of some sort.
Speaker 4: That when when you see an administration suggests that ordinary
Speaker 4: street crime is an insurrection or.
Speaker 3: A terroristack or a terrorist.
Speaker 4: Ackte that is a genuine effort to weaken how we
Speaker 4: have understood democracy. We don't want, uh, you know, kangaroo
Speaker 4: courts and trumped up charges. That's what happens in other
Speaker 4: places that we used to scold yeah for doing that.
Speaker 4: You know, we want like our court system and our
Speaker 4: Justice Department and our prosecutors to be and our FBI
Speaker 4: to be just playing things straight and looking at the
Speaker 4: facts and not meddling in politics the way the way
Speaker 4: we've seen later lately.
Speaker 1: This is a great podcast, by the way, for liberals,
Speaker 1: because with liberals, you just got to sound very intelligent.
Speaker 1: You sound very thoughtful and intelligent, as if you're saying
Speaker 1: something brilliant. Now, everything he's saying is a little of
Speaker 1: crappy you have. There's never been a case, But can.
Speaker 2: I can I make a point? I just got to
Speaker 2: say something as somebody who takes the subway, as somebody
Speaker 2: who lives in a city, and I'm watching these testimonials
Speaker 2: from all of the cities that the president is going
Speaker 2: into with the National Guard, whether it's Chicago, whether it's Portland,
Speaker 2: whether it's Memphis, and each of these people. I saw
Speaker 2: this guy yesterday. He goes, this is the first time
Speaker 2: I've had my children out on their bikes. I've been
Speaker 2: able to walk the dog without being afraid of being shot.
Speaker 2: So maybe Barack Obama and his thirteen Secret Service people
Speaker 2: are not feeling the same things that the everyday person
Speaker 2: is feeling, because that's not everyday crime. That's not these
Speaker 2: people are feeling.
Speaker 1: So he doesn't believe now when he says we've never
Speaker 1: seen the military sent into an America, well we have
Speaker 1: a million times.
Speaker 2: Tim Walls, National Guard, COVID lockdowns. I don't know.
Speaker 1: The most famous, greatest example ever was John F. Kennedy
Speaker 1: sent troops, seventeen thousand military troops into the Southern States
Speaker 1: to integrate the schools. Remember the southern governors, Lestermattox, George
Speaker 1: Wallace would not let black kids go to college. Kennedy
Speaker 1: sent the military seventeen thousand troops.
Speaker 2: But you don't have to go back that far. If
Speaker 2: you go back five years to COVID twenty twenty, when
Speaker 2: they were trying to tell us all the things that
Speaker 2: they wanted to tell us about the FAUCI fraud virus,
Speaker 2: they locked us down. Andy, you came out of your house,
Speaker 2: they may sure.
Speaker 1: To let you know, well you should be locked down.
Speaker 2: I think, oh, listen, you know, uh, Well, you can go.
Speaker 1: Back two years when the subway crime was at a bad,
Speaker 1: bad time and the governor of New York sent the
Speaker 1: National Guard down into the subway, and everybody said, thank god.
Speaker 1: These same Democrats, but now they talk very Obama like slow,
Speaker 1: and sound like they're very thoughtful. You ever watch at MSNBC,
Speaker 1: They try to make it look like you're watching some
Speaker 1: sort of distinguished panel. They've all got bow ties and
Speaker 1: glasses and they all look like these learned research. Every
Speaker 1: one of these people, they've all been in some scandal.
Speaker 1: Mike Barnacle was in a plagiarism scandal. The business guy
Speaker 1: Ratner was in another scandal. Band from certain industries. Al
Speaker 1: Sharpton is sitting there, do I have to say more
Speaker 1: the worst collection of characters, but they play a part.
Speaker 1: Where is this Rose Garden ceremony? This is taking a
Speaker 1: long time.
Speaker 2: I will tell you it's full. Everyone is in their seats.
Speaker 2: I just think that the president is probably taking a
Speaker 2: few moments with Erica Kirk in her family and then
Speaker 2: he will be out.
Speaker 1: That could take a while. Now there's some liberals that
Speaker 1: they do have logic style, so they take Bill Maher. Now,
Speaker 1: he's a left wing liberal, obviously, but he can be
Speaker 1: very logical at times, and he can be very honest.
Speaker 1: Listen to this.
Speaker 10: I always say this, You cannot ever deny success. You
Speaker 10: just have to give your respect, even if it's not
Speaker 10: your thing. Don't have the humility to give it up
Speaker 10: for enormous success on any level.
Speaker 3: Trump not my choice, didn't vote for him, but so
Speaker 3: loud that people did. And he's.
Speaker 10: I can't deny this success. I can't either. Yeah, and
Speaker 10: he's the president. And he's the president.
Speaker 1: Well, that wasn't easy for him to say, you want
Speaker 1: to take the break first, or you want to Okay, Well,
Speaker 1: we're going to bring you the Charlie Kirk Medal of
Speaker 1: Freedom ceremony in just a moment on the Sean Hannity Show.
Speaker 2: Oh, we can go to it now, Absolutely, go to it.
Speaker 2: What about the break, I don't have to worry about
Speaker 2: the break. We'll blow the break.
Speaker 1: Wow, President Trump at the Rose Garden.
Speaker 3: Yeah, please be seated.
Speaker 1: Charlie Crook's widow, Erica.
Speaker 9: This is the first time we've been at the new
Speaker 9: and improved Rose Garden, and people are loving it.
Speaker 3: They're loving it like they've not loved a lot of things.
Speaker 3: We have the.
Speaker 9: Presidential Walk of Fame, which you just saw, and uh
Speaker 9: I just opened and we wanted to get it open
Speaker 9: for this occasion. We were hoping we were able to
Speaker 9: get outside, and the weather allowed us to. They're supposed
Speaker 9: to be terrible rainy day. I was telling Eric, and
Speaker 9: God was watching it, and he didn't want that for Charlie.
Speaker 9: He just didn't want that. So it's really beautiful. Couldn't
Speaker 9: be more beautiful. Today we're here to honor and remember
Speaker 9: a fearless warrior for liberty, beloved leader who galvanized the
Speaker 9: next generation like nobody I've ever seen before, and an
Speaker 9: American patriot of the deepest conviction, the finest quality, and
Speaker 9: the highest caliber, the late great Charlie Kirk. Five weeks ago,
Speaker 9: our nation was robbed of this extraordinary champion.
Speaker 3: He was a champion in every way. I got to
Speaker 3: know him so well.
Speaker 9: He didn't like losing, and he was able to fight
Speaker 9: people that were enemies, and he didn't necessarily love those
Speaker 9: enemies so much. And I heard of his enemies and
Speaker 9: I said, wait a minute, is that the same Charlie
Speaker 9: that I know?
Speaker 3: I'm not sure, but I didn't want to get into it.
Speaker 9: But it was a horrible, heinous, demonic act of murder.
Speaker 9: He was assassinated in the prime of his life, for
Speaker 9: boldly speaking the truth, for living his faith and relentlessly
Speaker 9: fighting for a better and stronger America. Loved this country,
Speaker 9: and that's why this afternoon, it's my privilege to posthumously
Speaker 9: award Charles James Kirk R. Nation's highest civilian honor, the
Speaker 9: Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Speaker 3: Thank you.
Speaker 9: As you know, only hours ago, I returned from a
Speaker 9: very historic trip to secure peace in the Middle East.
Speaker 9: People said that couldn't be done. Charlie felt it could
Speaker 9: be done. Charlie felt it could be done. Thank you,
Speaker 9: thank you, thank you very much. But I raced back
Speaker 9: halfway around at the Globe. I was going to call
Speaker 9: Eric and say, Erica, could you maybe move it to Friday?
Speaker 9: And I didn't have the courage to call. But you
Speaker 9: know why I didn't call because I heard today was
Speaker 9: Charlie's birthday. And I said, you know, now, that was
Speaker 9: a definite. And I said, we're going to have to
Speaker 9: forget about some of those very big, very rich countries
Speaker 9: that expected me to be there. And I can tell
Speaker 9: you based on the length of that flight, I wouldn't
Speaker 9: want to go back tomorrow. But I would not have
Speaker 9: missed this moment for anything in the world nothing, and
Speaker 9: it's a very important time for our country.
Speaker 3: And our country is doing so well. It's never done better.
Speaker 9: We are a country with almost now eighteen three dollars
Speaker 9: of investment coming in. Nobody's ever seen anything like that.
Speaker 9: Previous administration had less than a trillion for four years.
Speaker 9: We have more than eighteen. It'll be much more than
Speaker 9: twenty by the time the more than twenty trillion dollars.
Speaker 9: Has never been a country in the world that had
Speaker 9: anything like that. What's happened to our country is incredible
Speaker 9: in a short period of time. Charlie was a big
Speaker 9: person for sir, could we close up those borders please
Speaker 9: a little bit? You know, they're really leaking badly, I said, Charlie.
Speaker 9: I haven't gotten there yet, but you know it came
Speaker 9: out last four months. Literally nobody was allowed into our
Speaker 9: country and the only people that were allowed in were
Speaker 9: people that came in legally. The borders are absolutely stone
Speaker 9: cold closed and they.
Speaker 3: Reported zero zero, zero and zero, so that's pretty good.
Speaker 9: But he was a big believer. He wanted people in
Speaker 9: the country more than I did. Frankly, he wanted them
Speaker 9: to come in legally, and he got his wish October
Speaker 9: fourteenth is Charlie's birthday, and he should have been turning
Speaker 9: thirty two years all that day. I never When I
Speaker 9: first met him, he was like twenty two, and I said, boy,
Speaker 9: he's awfully young.
Speaker 3: But I thought he was older than that. You know,
Speaker 3: he looked a little bit older than his age. That's okay.
Speaker 9: You know, that's not good when you're old, but when
Speaker 9: you're young, it's great. He had the best of all things,
Speaker 9: but he was special. But instead, Charlie is attaining a
Speaker 9: far more important milestone. We're entering his name forever into
Speaker 9: the eternal roster of true American heroes. He's a true
Speaker 9: American hero, an amazing person, way way beyond his years.
Speaker 9: And I'm honored to be joined by a woman who
Speaker 9: has endured unspeakable hardship with unbelievable strength.
Speaker 3: And that's Charlie's widow, Erica. And I just want to
Speaker 3: thank you, Erica. He loved you so much. I was
Speaker 3: with him. Please, thank you, darn thank you. I was
Speaker 3: with him.
Speaker 9: Before I met Erica, and he told me he was
Speaker 9: going to get married. He said, you won't believe how
Speaker 9: beautiful she is. I said, well, then, now that I
Speaker 9: meet he's right. But then he also said, and you
Speaker 9: know what, she's like the smartest person I know. See,
Speaker 9: they do go together on occasion, not of it, not
Speaker 9: off it, but on occasion they go together.
Speaker 3: But he was in love with you. He was deeply
Speaker 3: in love with you.
Speaker 9: It's great, Erica, your love and courage have been an
Speaker 9: inspiration to all of us. And we will always be
Speaker 9: here for you, and we're always going to be here
Speaker 9: for your gorgeous, beautiful children, and we'll never forget what
Speaker 9: your family sacrificed for our country. Man loved our country.
Speaker 9: When things were going badly for our country, he was
Speaker 9: so as you know, angry. We get angry because he said,
Speaker 9: it doesn't have to be that way. We're also pleased
Speaker 9: to be joined by an incredible group of Charlie's friends,
Speaker 9: very powerful friends actually, and some not so powerful. And
Speaker 9: there were actually better people, Okay, I know, well the
Speaker 9: less powerful ones.
Speaker 3: I have to tell you that, all of you power
Speaker 3: guys down.
Speaker 9: Here, the best ones in the group are the ones
Speaker 9: that are less successful.
Speaker 3: But that happens to you.
Speaker 9: Now.
Speaker 3: They're all great and they're here. And let's start with
Speaker 3: Erica's father. Where is Eric's father? Where are you where
Speaker 3: are you dead? Oh? Look at him. Well, I want
Speaker 3: to get a hat like that too.
Speaker 1: I like that they stations along le Sean heading network.
Speaker 1: We're not going to take the break. We're going to
Speaker 1: continue to bring you this ceremony.
Speaker 3: How are you nice to see again?
Speaker 9: Thanks as well to Vice President jd Vance, who's been fantastic.
Speaker 3: Jd thank you very much, great doing a great job.
Speaker 3: Did a great.
Speaker 9: Job on Sunday with George Slapadopolis put him away pretty good.
Speaker 9: Second lady who's a phenomenal woman, Usha Vantz, thank you
Speaker 9: very much, Yusha, thank you very much, great woman. President
Speaker 9: of Argentina. He wanted to be here. That's Argentina is
Speaker 9: a serious flight, right and he's become a superstar and
Speaker 9: he's doing amazing things. He's a maga person. But it's
Speaker 9: make Argentina great again. That's what he does right and
Speaker 9: I want you to stand please, Javier jave M Relay,
Speaker 9: doing a great job.
Speaker 3: Thank you very much.
Speaker 9: Many members of my cabinet are here, just about all
Speaker 9: of them here. I won't go into every single one
Speaker 9: of them, but I'll announce a few of the people
Speaker 9: that have really turned this country around and helped me
Speaker 9: incredible people. Speaker of the House Mike Johnson is Mike,
Speaker 9: what a job you're doing.
Speaker 3: Mike, what a job you're doing.
Speaker 9: And I watched you this morning and you're in there
Speaker 9: trying to say, look, just let the country open, everything
Speaker 9: will be fine. Who are dealing with some radical left lunatics.
Speaker 9: And I would just wish Charlie was here to fight us.
Speaker 9: I think the fight would have been over already. He
Speaker 9: would have had a march on the Capitol by people
Speaker 9: whose average age is about twenty one, because there's nobody
Speaker 9: that had that relationship with young people, right, Mike.
Speaker 3: So thank you Mike for being here.
Speaker 9: House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, Steve, thank you very much.
Speaker 3: Brave, a brave guy and a friend. House Majority Whip.
Speaker 9: Another terrific man, Tom Emmer, Thank you, Tom.
Speaker 3: Senate Majority Whip John Barrasso.
Speaker 9: John, thank you very much. Oh yeah, all these senators
Speaker 9: I'm going to get in trouble. I'm not going to
Speaker 9: read all their names. I'll be reading all day. We'll
Speaker 9: be talking about Charlie in about forty five minutes from now.
Speaker 3: We can't do that.
Speaker 9: So all of the senators, there's so many of you,
Speaker 9: Thank you, very much. I do want to thank Senator
Speaker 9: Thune for doing a terrific job. He's really been leading properly.
Speaker 9: Do you agree, Mike. The team of the two of
Speaker 9: these guys have been fantastic. So to Senator Thune, I
Speaker 9: want to thank you very much. Incredible job. Watch him
Speaker 9: this morning and he was out there pounding him this
Speaker 9: morning on television two. And John Barrasso, thank you for
Speaker 9: the work you've done and congratulations and your success. But
Speaker 9: I want to thank you all in all of the
Speaker 9: congress people.
Speaker 3: That are here.
Speaker 9: And I see we have our Attorney general here, so
Speaker 9: and you are doing a fantastic job. Thank you very much. Pamp,
Speaker 9: thank you, thank you very much. We have everybody. Wow,
Speaker 9: that's a credible Okay, I'm not going to do anymore,
Speaker 9: going to be here too long, but I just want
Speaker 9: to thank you have given him such support, but he
Speaker 9: always gave you such support.
Speaker 3: That's why you're here, and very unusual.
Speaker 9: Charles James Kirk was a visionary and one of the
Speaker 9: greatest figures of his generation. He was truly an amazing
Speaker 9: figure and growing leaps and vowels, he knew that the
Speaker 9: fight to preserve our heritage is waged not only on
Speaker 9: the battlefield and in the halls of power, of which
Speaker 9: we have tremendous power here, including the head of a
Speaker 9: place called war.
Speaker 3: We called now war.
Speaker 9: We had defense, we had our secretary of defense. Now
Speaker 9: have a secretary of war, and somehow I think it's
Speaker 9: more emblematic. And hopefully we'll never have to use war.
Speaker 9: But the fact that we're ready is very good. Peace
Speaker 9: through strength.
Speaker 3: Is very important. But also in the hearts of our
Speaker 3: nation's youth.
Speaker 9: That's where Charlie Road's strongest at age eighteen. That inside
Speaker 9: inspired Charlie to found the organization that ultimately touched the
Speaker 9: lives of millions and millions of people, and so many
Speaker 9: young people that nobody's ever seen anything like it. Frankly,
Speaker 9: turning Point USA. It's amazing, and it's actually bigger now.
Speaker 9: It's become bigger in the last few weeks. And Charlie
Speaker 9: ever thought, I think his end vision in many years
Speaker 9: from now would have been just a fraction of what
Speaker 9: had turned out to be in a couple of weeks.
Speaker 3: Right, It's amazing with.
Speaker 9: Hard work and joyful spirit and endless and enthusiasm and determination,
Speaker 9: and he did have great enthusiasm and I always say
Speaker 9: you need enthusiasm to be successful.
Speaker 3: He had great enthusiasm.
Speaker 9: Charlie grew Turning Point into the largest conservative youth organization
Speaker 9: in the entire country. He forged a personal bond with
Speaker 9: countless young conservatives.
Speaker 3: He fought for free speech, religious liberty.
Speaker 9: Strong borders, and a very strong and proud America. In
Speaker 9: everything he did, he put America first. He really put
Speaker 9: America first. And ultimately Charlie became more than a leader
Speaker 9: of an important organization. He became the leader of historic
Speaker 9: movements all over the country. There were movements, individual movements,
Speaker 9: one movement, but it was historic. Everything he did was
Speaker 9: historic and a true evangelist for the cause of freedom
Speaker 9: and the word of Almighty God. God was very important
Speaker 9: to Charlie. He would say, you know, if you don't
Speaker 9: have religion, you're not going to have a strong country.
Speaker 3: It's true. He was so wise beyond his years.
Speaker 9: You know, I talked to him sometimes, I said, this
Speaker 9: guy is like a young guy.
Speaker 3: He was really a wise man.
Speaker 9: From the time Charlie worked on my presidential campaign in
Speaker 9: twenty sixteen, and he was there right from the beginning.
Speaker 3: He liked me.
Speaker 9: I don't know, I have no idea. What the hell
Speaker 9: was he thinking? He said, you're gonna win, sir. I said,
Speaker 9: you know, I'm running against seventeen senators and a lot
Speaker 9: of tough people and governors. We have all these people.
Speaker 9: And he said, no, you're going to win, sir. He said,
Speaker 9: not going to be close. And he made it happen.
Speaker 9: He helped make it happen. I'll tell you that without him,
Speaker 9: who knows what would be Maybe you'd have Kamalist standing
Speaker 9: here today. That would not be good. I will tell
Speaker 9: you how he you don't know who Kamala is, promised
Speaker 9: it would not be good.
Speaker 3: Do you agree with that, Howard?
Speaker 9: He also mobilized countless citizens to go vote. It's called
Speaker 9: go vote, very simple, and with his help in twenty
Speaker 9: twenty four, we won more young people than any Republican
Speaker 9: by far in the history of our country, and we
Speaker 9: won the popular vote. We won the states, all seven
Speaker 9: of them. Remember they said, oh, well, if Trump could
Speaker 9: win four, that would be nice. I went seven, by
Speaker 9: a lot, by a landslide.
