Speaker 1: Alright, letard skinnered and simple man. That means only one
Speaker 1: thing on this radio program, whether we are in Doha,
Speaker 1: Tar or whether we are in the Free State of Florida.
Speaker 2: It means all things, simple man.
Speaker 1: That means all things Bill O'Reilly, all things Bill O'Reilly
Speaker 1: or billoreilly dot com. The only thing missing here is
Speaker 1: Bill O'Reilly, Mister O'Reilly, sir, welcome. I will tell you
Speaker 1: Katar is a spectacular city. It is unbelievable and very,
Speaker 1: very different than Saudi Arabia. I know you're well traveled
Speaker 1: throughout your careers as a media personality and journalist at
Speaker 1: different times, but I will tell you it's beyond impressive.
Speaker 2: How are you, sir?
Speaker 3: I'm okay. You hanging tap. You look a little tired
Speaker 3: last night on TV, but you didn't sleep for twenty
Speaker 3: four hours. I understand right.
Speaker 1: I did not sleep at twenty four hours, and you
Speaker 1: know we were on the air at four am local time,
Speaker 1: and then this morning I was up at six o'clock
Speaker 1: to get back on the road again. And it's not
Speaker 1: exactly been my day of napping. But with all that said,
Speaker 1: it really is an honor to be here. Sure, it's
Speaker 1: an honor.
Speaker 2: To see this up close and personal.
Speaker 1: We both have had these moments in our career where
Speaker 1: sleep is secondary. And to give you know, to use
Speaker 1: your words the folks of a first hand view of
Speaker 1: history and the making for me is a great honor
Speaker 1: and I'm very grateful. And I think these are all
Speaker 1: big things that the President's working on. I'm watching what
Speaker 1: happened in Saudi Arabia. I saw things that I didn't
Speaker 1: think i'd see. I'm seeing the same things here in guitar.
Speaker 1: I do have my very strong belief that radical is
Speaker 1: and must be completely rejected. You can't turn a blind
Speaker 1: eye towards it. I would like to see this part
Speaker 1: of the world align now with Israel in the West
Speaker 1: and the Abraham Accords, as the President has challenged. The
Speaker 1: President has been very clear on Iran. I was there
Speaker 1: this well, my time this morning, when everybody else was
Speaker 1: sleeping where you are. I heard the President warning of
Speaker 1: new sanctions ahead of the Russia Ukraine peace talks, which
Speaker 1: I do hope takes place. These are not small items.
Speaker 1: He's taken on every big issue in the world. And
Speaker 1: you know he showed some success with Indian Pakistan.
Speaker 3: But what say you sir, well, there's a changing dynamic
Speaker 3: where you are. I haven't been to the Gulf States.
Speaker 3: I spent some time in Iraq during the war, as
Speaker 3: you know, Kuwait, Afghanistan, but editing it down to the
Speaker 3: Gulf States, but it's a thing history there. So there's
Speaker 3: no question of Wahabism, which drives the hatred toward the Jews,
Speaker 3: and the West America is on the decline, and that
Speaker 3: that's a key factor that the Trump administration understands that
Speaker 3: under Barack Obama, wa Hobbism was was still very strong,
Speaker 3: and the Sultans who run Cutter and Saudi Arabian Emirates,
Speaker 3: they were afraid of the Hobbis. They were tetrified. That
Speaker 3: has declined in conjunction with Iran. I don't want to
Speaker 3: be too pennheady here, but Iran was always the money
Speaker 3: behind the radical Islamis, and now Iran's on the ropes.
Speaker 3: So the Trump administration understands that global reality and has
Speaker 3: basically said to the Gulf States, you need to throw
Speaker 3: in with us, and by mention Israel, we don't need
Speaker 3: you to love them, but we need you to treat
Speaker 3: them fairly. And I think that all of the Guried
Speaker 3: States at this point in history are going to do that.
Speaker 3: Does that analysis make sense?
Speaker 1: No, it makes a lot of sense, because I can
Speaker 1: tell you this. It is very obvious to me that
Speaker 1: if there was if you take if we could extrapolate
Speaker 1: out Iran from the entire equation here in the Gulf States,
Speaker 1: if we could do that, there is no doubt in
Speaker 1: my mind that Saudi Arabia, that Qatar, that the Emirates,
Speaker 1: that Egypt, Jordan, all of these countries would immediately sign on.
Speaker 1: And now I spoke to people deep inside the Saudi
Speaker 1: government about this. I was told this bill directly, and
Speaker 1: they they they want to do it. That's that, and
Speaker 1: I believe what I was told was true true. Do
Speaker 1: you agree with that.
Speaker 3: Analysis, Yes, but you need to know why they want
Speaker 3: to do it. It's not because they love America or
Speaker 3: they certainly don't love Israel and the Jews. That's not
Speaker 3: going to change. But the people who run these countries
Speaker 3: are realistic and they see that the threat from the
Speaker 3: gis declined, and what they want most of all they've
Speaker 3: always want, is to make money. You say that the
Speaker 3: cities are spectacular, they are, but that doesn't fill their
Speaker 3: down to the folks very much. A lot of poverty
Speaker 3: in those countries. It's the royal family and the apparatunics
Speaker 3: attached to them that really benefit. And they build these
Speaker 3: big spectacle cities and these airlines like Emirates, which some
Speaker 3: consider best in the world, to get people to do commerce,
Speaker 3: to buy their oil or buy their stuff. So it's
Speaker 3: more of an economic thing than a well we've had
Speaker 3: a conversion like America now, because we respect America's freedom.
Speaker 3: There's no freedom in the Gulf States. You get out
Speaker 3: of line, they're going to come and take you away
Speaker 3: to quote Buffalo Springfield. But Trump is the ultimate capitalist.
Speaker 3: Trump speaks their language money wise. That is the reason
Speaker 3: this stayton is now forming because they understand each other.
Speaker 1: Well, I think your analysis is right. I think it's
Speaker 1: about money. But Bill, I would rather they care about
Speaker 1: capitalism and money. Now, it's interesting when you talk about poverty,
Speaker 1: because you know, I've now driven extensively through these two countries,
Speaker 1: and I'll drive through the UAE tomorrow. And for example,
Speaker 1: crime compared to the US, drugs compared to the US,
Speaker 1: all of these sort of things. And don't mistake me,
Speaker 1: I am not for theocracy or the rigidity or the
Speaker 1: lack of freedom that is associated with the culture and
Speaker 1: the more Ras and many of these states. And I
Speaker 1: want to be very clear about that. However, it is
Speaker 1: these Gulf states are ruled with an iron fist. But
Speaker 1: the folks, to use your term, are doing much better
Speaker 1: because some of that money has in fact cascaded down
Speaker 1: to the folks, and the poverty level has come up dramatically,
Speaker 1: and people are doing much much better than they had
Speaker 1: previously because we're talking about wealth that is unimaginable to
Speaker 1: most people.
Speaker 3: That's true, and that's a smart thing that the Shakes
Speaker 3: have accomplished. But the two factors. Number one, if you
Speaker 3: commit a crime in any of those places, you'll get
Speaker 3: your hand cut off or you'll disappear. So these are
Speaker 3: fascist societies, no due process.
Speaker 1: By the way, if you were a citizen event any
Speaker 1: of these places, they would have you. They would have
Speaker 1: had you disappeared decades ago, we wouldn't exist. Well, if
Speaker 1: they were listening to this radio, you know, it's shocking.
Speaker 1: Can I just divert your attention. It's shocking how many
Speaker 1: people here and in Saudi Arabia know me.
Speaker 2: It shocks me that they have watched me for years.
Speaker 1: It shocks me that, you know, when I went up
Speaker 1: to the days when the President was with the Crown
Speaker 1: Prince and I was speaking briefly with Marco Rubio, as
Speaker 1: the President pointed me out to the Crown Prince and
Speaker 1: made a joke, and the Crown Prince laughed, and then
Speaker 1: I said, nobody up here, mister President, knows who I am.
Speaker 1: And the guy sitting to the right of the President said,
Speaker 1: you're Sean Hannity of Fox News. And the guy, oh,
Speaker 1: he said Hannity, and the guy goes next to him,
Speaker 1: You're Sean Hannity, a Fox News And that.
Speaker 2: Kind of surprised me. Really, that would that have surprised you.
Speaker 3: No, I just got invited to speak to She's guys
Speaker 3: in Beijing on the twenty eighth of May.
Speaker 2: That shocks me, by the way, it was really nice
Speaker 2: knowing your Bill.
Speaker 1: I appreciate our friendship, but I'd be very careful.
Speaker 3: Log I'll talk to you that about I'll talk to
Speaker 3: you about that next Wednesday. But with YouTube and with
Speaker 3: social media now everything it just carries all over the world.
Speaker 3: And Fox News is still a big canon. I mean,
Speaker 3: obviously the people who want to know what Donald Trump
Speaker 3: thinks are going to be dialed into that. I don't
Speaker 3: think Rachel Maddow would be getting any hosannas over in
Speaker 3: the Gulf States, if you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: Anyway, By the way, that might be the best line
Speaker 2: you've ever heard.
Speaker 1: She's not going to be getting anyanas over in the
Speaker 1: Gulf States.
Speaker 3: Hey, Rachel. But you know, this is what people don't
Speaker 3: understand about Trump. He's not a politician. And one of
Speaker 3: the reasons that I believe he's ultimately going to be
Speaker 3: successful in bringing more prosperities of this country because he
Speaker 3: doesn't look at things like Jimmy Carter looked at it
Speaker 3: or Obama looked at it. He doesn't look at it
Speaker 3: like that. He's not looking at well, how many votes
Speaker 3: am I going to get in Missouri if I do this?
Speaker 3: He's not. He lives at it like how much money
Speaker 3: is going to come into the United States if I
Speaker 3: sell all these Boeing jets to cut her. I mean,
Speaker 3: he didn't care about votes in Washington State, where Boeing
Speaker 3: his base. He's a deal guy and in the Gulf
Speaker 3: that is a huge advantage over these pinheads who come
Speaker 3: out of the political science schools. Where the Arabs couldn't
Speaker 3: care less about the electoral vote in Wisconsin. They respect
Speaker 3: Trump because they know Trump is a successful business person.
Speaker 1: All right, clickbreak, will come back more things with simple man,
Speaker 1: Bill O'Riley. So he'll proclaim, simple man, all things are
Speaker 1: Riley A bill right. As we continue. We are in Doha,
Speaker 1: we are in Qatar.
Speaker 3: A right, we.
Speaker 1: Continue now with all things simple man. That means Bill O'Reilly.
Speaker 1: As we broadcast live from Doha, Qatar, you heard Trump
Speaker 1: his very direct threat to Iran.
Speaker 2: He's like, I want the people to prosper. I want
Speaker 2: them to prosper.
Speaker 1: I want but but they will never have a nuclear weapon,
Speaker 1: and they've got to dismantle their nuclear capability or there
Speaker 1: will be action. And I think there is a hope
Speaker 1: on their part that in fact, Donald Trump will do
Speaker 1: the job that they themselves can't do. That's what I
Speaker 1: think a big part of the equation is. And as
Speaker 1: a consequence of that, we go back to where I
Speaker 1: was before, and that is that that would result in
Speaker 1: an unprecedented peace in the region, that would result in
Speaker 1: them joining the Abraham McCord. It's the recognition of Israel
Speaker 1: et cetera. I mean that's certainly the hope. I think
Speaker 1: it is definitely a possibility.
Speaker 3: I would not disagree with that. Trump is a symbolic
Speaker 3: iron dome to the Gulf nations.
Speaker 1: They know that by the way that that is, you're
Speaker 1: a wordsmith. With that, you're on your a game today.
Speaker 3: He protects them from the tribalism because it's Sunni Shi
Speaker 3: and all that stuff of Iran and they but even
Speaker 3: more importantly, they know if Trump says Iran's not going
Speaker 3: to get a nuclear weapon or they believe that he's
Speaker 3: going to follow through.
Speaker 1: Yeah, pretty amazing times. I do want to talk more
Speaker 1: the next time you're on the program about your trip.
Speaker 1: You are taking trip to China. When is that trip?
Speaker 3: I'm going to Japan first, then China than South Korea.
Speaker 3: The Chinese government invited me to do a Q and
Speaker 3: a A based upon my book The United States of Trump,
Speaker 3: which I understand as a phenomenal bestseller in Beijing right now.
Speaker 3: And they want to know.
Speaker 1: Of course it is Bill, I mean, how could it
Speaker 1: not be. I mean, you're Bill, O'Reilly, Well, thank you.
Speaker 3: I appreciate the killing Jesus in China.
Speaker 1: Listen, I'm not surprised in all seriousness. That is fascinating.
Speaker 1: I really want to hear more about it. We'll talk
Speaker 1: about it next week. And we do appreciate your time
Speaker 1: over there.
Speaker 3: I mean, you're and iron man. I'm telling you, I
Speaker 3: would be in a Hammick someplace.
Speaker 1: Listen, We've been to many of the same places, you know.
Speaker 1: I've traveled to Israel and Iraq and Helsinki and Singapore
Speaker 1: and Vietnam and and you know, we're a very honored
Speaker 1: to be able to do what we do. And I'm
Speaker 1: very grateful to our audiences collectively for giving us the
Speaker 1: opportunity to report on it firsthand. And I appreciate the
Speaker 1: fact that you're always supportive. Thank you, my friend.
Speaker 3: Okay, we'll talk next week.
Speaker 1: Bike eight hundred is a number you want to be
Speaker 1: a part of the program. As we continue. We are
Speaker 1: in Doha, we are we are in Katar. I'm looking
Speaker 1: at a beautiful city skyline as we speak. Is it
Speaker 1: is pretty late in the evening right now. Hannity will
Speaker 1: be at four am this morning, believe it or not.
Speaker 4: Breaking news all afternoon. When you get off work, be
Speaker 4: sure to check in first for everything you missed during
Speaker 4: the day. This is the Sean Hannity Show.
Speaker 1: Al right, twenty five now till the top of the hour.
Speaker 1: Eight sean our number. You want to be a part
Speaker 1: of the program. We are in Doha. We are in Qatar,
Speaker 1: very different than Saudi Arabia.
Speaker 2: This is not a desert. It has water and oil.
Speaker 1: By the way, very we healthy country known like the
Speaker 1: UAE is as a vacation kind of playground for people
Speaker 1: in the Arab world and around the world. I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, people from all over the world to come
Speaker 1: here to vacation, et cetera. Far less stringent laws and rules.
Speaker 1: Linda would be a lot happier unless at risk, if
Speaker 1: she were on the trip here in Doha, in Qatar.
Speaker 2: You agree with that, right, Linda.
Speaker 3: I don't think that I am safe in the Middle
Speaker 3: East in any capacity other than the one democracy.
Speaker 2: Which is true.
Speaker 1: Maybe true, But you have me and I would protect
Speaker 1: you at all costs.
Speaker 4: Are we kung fu fighting in the Middle East?
Speaker 3: Bro?
Speaker 2: Because I'm down if that's what we're about, I'm all in.
Speaker 2: If we kung fu fighting, what does that mean? If
Speaker 2: we kung fu fighting, what does that mean?
Speaker 4: You know what it means.
Speaker 2: I'm here to party. Would you say to me that's right.
Speaker 2: I'm a woman, karate chop your ass.
Speaker 1: Okay, listen, I want to remind everybody Memorial Day is
Speaker 1: right around the corner. The Fourth of July will follow thereafter,
Speaker 1: and what flag are you going to be flying?
Speaker 2: Look, I hope you understand.
Speaker 1: The last thing you want to purchase that comes from
Speaker 1: another country or overseas is an overseas made flag with
Speaker 1: fred edges. Do you really want to fly on Memorial
Speaker 1: Day and on the Fourth of July a flag made
Speaker 1: in China?
Speaker 2: Because I don't.
Speaker 1: And that's why I have a durable, high quality American
Speaker 1: flag that truly honors our country and these important days,
Speaker 1: and frankly, every day is an important day because we
Speaker 1: live in the greatest country God gave men. And the
Speaker 1: flag that I fly was hands sown in Charleston, South
Speaker 1: Carolina by true patriots that love our country, and every
Speaker 1: part comes from right here in well I'm not here,
Speaker 1: or it comes from America, our country, and I'm talking
Speaker 1: about Allegiance flags of fly, and I'm flying my flag
Speaker 1: right now, my Allegiance flag. Except sweet baby James, he
Speaker 1: hung it in the wrong place, so I have to
Speaker 1: put it in the right place.
Speaker 2: So everybody can see it.
Speaker 1: Anyway, you'll have time still before Memorial Day to get
Speaker 1: your flag and fly it proudly. It's a flag to
Speaker 1: be revered and you will be proud of it. It's
Speaker 1: a great gift for any member of your family. Maybe
Speaker 1: you have a military member in your family. Maybe it's
Speaker 1: a Father's Day gift. Maybe you know, maybe for mom. Anyway,
Speaker 1: you won't find a handcrafted Allegiance flag in any big
Speaker 1: box store. They don't exist there. The only way you
Speaker 1: can get one is when you go to their website.

Speaker 1: You know what's amazing to me is I read through
Speaker 1: the news every day and it just does not go away.
Speaker 1: What am I talking about the issue of Joe Biden's
Speaker 1: cognitive decline? What people knew when they knew it. I mean,
Speaker 1: fake Jake Tapper is the biggest phony of them all.
Speaker 1: We have played that tape over and over again of
Speaker 1: fake Jake literally going out there and saying, you know,
Speaker 1: let me play this clash with Laura Trump and you know,
Speaker 1: over Joe Biden's obvious and clear cognitive decline. And we
Speaker 1: talked about it before the twenty twenty election. It was
Speaker 1: on display for everyone to see, and everybody knew about it.
Speaker 1: Everyone denied what their eyes were saying. And even in
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three and four, these are cheap fake video.
Speaker 1: They're not cheap fake video. Was they're real videos. George Cloney,
Speaker 1: he didn't recognize me. I was shucked. They're full of
Speaker 1: Adam Schiff, to be honest, but it was transparent. Now
Speaker 1: this guy's trying to sell a book about Joe's cognitive
Speaker 1: decline and how the media missed it, needing how he
Speaker 1: missed it along with everybody else in the state run
Speaker 1: legacy media mob.
Speaker 5: Listen, what we see on stage with Joe Biden. Jake
Speaker 5: is very clearly a cognitive decline. That's what I'm referring to.
Speaker 5: It makes me uncomfortable.
Speaker 4: I think it was so amazing.
Speaker 2: It's so amazing to.
Speaker 5: Me that I'm trying to figure out an.
Speaker 4: Answer cognitive decline. You're trying to.
Speaker 5: Tell me that what I was suggesting.
Speaker 4: Was I think you were mocking his stutter.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you were mocking his stutter.
Speaker 3: And I think you have absolutely no standing to diagnose
Speaker 3: somebody's cognitive decline.
Speaker 5: Is one last question you can't times on stage. And
Speaker 5: it's very concerning to a lot of people that this
Speaker 5: could be the leader of the free world.
Speaker 4: That is all I'm saying. I jennuine thank you Lar
Speaker 4: for Joe.
Speaker 2: I appreciate it. I'm sure it was from a place
Speaker 2: of concern. We all believe that. Laura Trump, thank.
Speaker 6: You so much.
Speaker 1: Now, what's amazing about that? Oh, you're making fun of
Speaker 1: his stuttering? No, nobody was making fun of his stuttering.
Speaker 2: I'll be honest.
Speaker 1: I never once talked about Joe Biden having a stuttering problem.
Speaker 1: He had a cognitive problem, A very big distinction and difference.
Speaker 1: You know, he's David Axelrod. Oh, people around him didn't
Speaker 1: serve him well. Now, in one little bit of fairness
Speaker 1: to David Axelrod, he didn't want He knew Joe Biden
Speaker 1: was a mess.
Speaker 2: He just didn't say it.
Speaker 1: He went all the way around the edges, never came
Speaker 1: out and said this man has no business being president
Speaker 1: the way we did and the way anybody in the
Speaker 1: media should have done.
Speaker 7: Listen, I think one of the tragedies of this story
Speaker 7: is that Joe Biden served this country honorably for more
Speaker 7: than half a century, did accomplish some very significant things
Speaker 7: as president, but mistakenly thought that he was equipped to
Speaker 7: run for another term when I said, as I said
Speaker 7: back in twenty twenty two, he'd be closer to ninety
Speaker 7: than eighty at the end of that term. And that
Speaker 7: was just not sensible. And a lot of people around
Speaker 7: him did not serve him well because they reinforced his
Speaker 7: desire to run instead of protecting his legacy and him
Speaker 7: and by the way, also the Democratic Party in the country,
Speaker 7: so you know.
Speaker 1: He doesn't get a pass either. And then you got
Speaker 1: Chucky Schumer shutting down somebody on fake news. Cy and
Speaker 1: N's question about Biden's cognitive state. Chucky Schumer knew, Nancy
Speaker 1: Pelosi knew, everybody around Joe knew.
Speaker 2: They covered it up.
Speaker 1: They lied because they just didn't want Donald Trump, and
Speaker 1: they hate Trump way more than they care about telling
Speaker 1: the American people the truth.
Speaker 8: Listen, you sat next to Biden in the Oval office
Speaker 8: February twenty seventh, twenty twenty four, just a handful of
Speaker 8: months before the president took that debate stage, and it
Speaker 8: was later reported that you and other democratically about having
Speaker 8: a plan, you and Hakeem Jeffries, Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama.
Speaker 8: I understand you later denied that that ever happened, but
Speaker 8: I am curious. I'm interested to know whether the man
Speaker 8: that you saw us sitting there on that couch on
Speaker 8: that day you were in there, you saw him up
Speaker 8: close and personal, did you really not have any idea
Speaker 8: that he was not fit to serve a second term?
Speaker 4: Casey, we're looking forward.
Speaker 1: We have the largest medicaid caught in front of us,
Speaker 1: we have the coll federal.
Speaker 8: All this because you lost a presidential election, and is
Speaker 8: that not Joe Biden's responsibility for deciding.
Speaker 4: To run again. We're looking forward, that's it.
Speaker 2: That's it, and not to be outdone.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 1: Now the minority leader in the House, Hakim Jeffrey, he's
Speaker 1: asked about Biden not recognizing George Clooney, we're looking forward. Really,
Speaker 1: what did you know and when did you know it?
Speaker 1: There really should be an investigation. I'll tell you why.
Speaker 1: Because if a president has severe cognitive decline the way
Speaker 1: Joe Biden did, it is a national security risk. It
Speaker 1: is a national security risk. It's that simple. All right,
Speaker 1: Let's get to our busy phones as we continue. We
Speaker 1: are in Doha, we are in guitar. Let us get
Speaker 1: to our phones. We'll stay in Texas with Bill. Bill
Speaker 1: God bless Texas. Welcome to Qatar, and glad you could
Speaker 1: be with us.
Speaker 9: Hey, Sean, thanks for having me. I just wanted to
Speaker 9: comment on the shortage of the air traffic controllers. My son,
Speaker 9: he's a twenty two year old college graduate and he
Speaker 9: started the process to be an air traffic controller back
Speaker 9: in November and it's May and he still he still
Speaker 9: hasn't got that call to go to Oklahoma yet, and
Speaker 9: we're waiting for him to get that call because he's
Speaker 9: eating us out of the house.
Speaker 2: So well, I just.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm going to give you advice. My kids
Speaker 1: are just a little bit older than yours. You know what,
Speaker 1: you're going to miss that these days. But with that said,
Speaker 1: when we end this call, stay on the line, and
Speaker 1: I'm going to have my Katie take your number and
Speaker 1: I will pass it on to Sean Duffy. I had
Speaker 1: very extensive conversations about the shortage of air traffic controllers
Speaker 1: that he inherited from Pothole Pete and it's over three
Speaker 1: thousand and for example, New Jersey is just an ou
Speaker 1: mitigated disaster and that impacts the New York area, the
Speaker 1: metropolitan area, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, etc. So they need people,
Speaker 1: and I know they're going to try and extend out
Speaker 1: the age of retirement and maybe entice people to come
Speaker 1: back in that have all that experience.
Speaker 2: But people like your son are the people who are
Speaker 2: looking for Yes, sir, so.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's great that he want Why
Speaker 1: does he want to be an air traffic controler?
Speaker 4: He liked looking at maps.
Speaker 9: He's always had a fascinating maps and in places, and
Speaker 9: he wants to.
Speaker 2: Enjoy.
Speaker 9: He's not he's not a learning to fly or anything
Speaker 9: like that, but he just enjoys. Uh, I think he'll
Speaker 9: enjoy that that type of atmosphere, that that kind of
Speaker 9: high stress.
Speaker 4: That comes along with that job.
Speaker 9: And so yeah, he started back in November and got
Speaker 9: a i'm gonna call it the entrance exam. I'm not
Speaker 9: sure what it's called, but he scored very high on
Speaker 9: Matt and then we thought it would just be a
Speaker 9: short time before they called him up.
Speaker 4: But uh, it's it's may.
Speaker 1: You may be surprised, and I don't want to give away,
Speaker 1: you may be surprised at how quickly this whole process
Speaker 1: will unfold. And I'm only saying that based on my
Speaker 1: conversation with Sean Duffy, who understands the urgency to get
Speaker 1: people like your son behind those controls on the job
Speaker 1: sooner rather than later. So if you don't mind, Bill,
Speaker 1: stay on the line. Katie will take care of you,
Speaker 1: and I'm going to pass your number on to Sean.
Speaker 1: And his sense of urgency about this is beyond measure,
Speaker 1: rightly so, and he inherited all of that. All right,
Speaker 1: quick break right back, we'll continue. We are in Doha,
Speaker 1: we are in Katar, and we'll get to your calls.
Speaker 1: So straight ahead, eight hundred and nine four one, Shawn
Speaker 1: our number. As we continue Steve Moore on the Economy
Speaker 1: straight Ahead.
Speaker 4: The final hour roundup is next.
Speaker 3: You do not want to miss it, and stay tuned
Speaker 3: for the final hour Free for All on the Sean
Speaker 3: Hannity Shows.
Speaker 1: All right, we continue our broadcast from Qatar. We are
Speaker 1: in Doha. Let's get back to our busy phones. Eight
Speaker 1: hundred nine four one Shawn. We have a great Hannity tonight,
Speaker 1: nine easter. Let me go to Cindy, Great State of Texas. Cindy,
Speaker 1: how are you glad you could be with us in Qatar?
Speaker 1: And what a side I'm looking at as I look
Speaker 1: at this this city where bright lights and vibrancy, that
Speaker 1: is really amazing.
Speaker 6: Actually, well, I just don't understand how come anybody hasn't
Speaker 6: I mean, everybody's freaking out over him accepting a gift
Speaker 6: whenever nobody has even mentioned the fact that, you know, there.
Speaker 10: Could be a GPS system on this new plane. They
Speaker 10: could be trying to find out secrets. And I'm sure
Speaker 10: President Trump is smart enough to dissect the whole thing
Speaker 10: and break it all down. And why can't we just
Speaker 10: be grateful that? Okay, let's let's run with this. See
Speaker 10: what happens. Worst case scenario, you sell it all for parts.
Speaker 1: Look, the Air Force one and I have the honor
Speaker 1: of traveling, as you know, and reporting on what's going
Speaker 1: on on this trip. And this is the president's you know,
Speaker 1: first foreign trip in a second term, and it's a
Speaker 1: forty year old plane. And it's kind of hard to,
Speaker 1: you know, think that America has a forty year old
Speaker 1: plane for the president of our country. When I was
Speaker 1: leaving Saudi Arabia, I did notice that they had all
Speaker 1: of the Golf states that were there, and I did
Speaker 1: notice the planes of other states in the Gulf, and
Speaker 1: they were far newer or seemingly far newer and bigger
Speaker 1: than Air Force One. And maybe it sounds egotistical, and
Speaker 1: if it does to people, that's fine, But I think
Speaker 1: the president should have the best, the latest, the greatest always,
Speaker 1: because that's just who we are as a country. I mean,
Speaker 1: we are the leader of the free world. End of sentence.
Speaker 1: And as I always say, every single politician, Democrat, Republican
Speaker 1: needs to be protected. And I don't care what your
Speaker 1: political affiliation is. We need to protect elected officials. And
Speaker 1: I said that back in the Obama years, many many times,
Speaker 1: I'll say the same thing here is we need the latest, greatest,
Speaker 1: best technology. No that we have enemies that are targeting
Speaker 1: our country and our president.
Speaker 2: So I think it's fine.
Speaker 1: Now there's a bigger issue in play here too, And
Speaker 1: I brought this up last night on TV. I brought
Speaker 1: it up on this radio show yesterday. And the amount
Speaker 1: of protection that is provided to Qatar and Saudi Arabia
Speaker 1: and UA is incalculable because not only do we sell
Speaker 1: them and you'd say, well, we're just selling the military equipment.
Speaker 1: It's not that we're selling them the military equipment. And
Speaker 1: I watched you know the I think they're fifteens, eighteen's
Speaker 1: whatever they were on the side of each wing applying
Speaker 1: into each country. It's that we are giving them that
Speaker 1: technology and they wouldn't have anywhere near the security.
Speaker 2: You can't put a price on that.
Speaker 1: The last thing largest military bases right here in Guitar
Speaker 1: for the US in terms of the Middle East, the
Speaker 1: Kataris have spent eight billion dollars in terms of investing
Speaker 1: money to build out that base. Nobody ever questioned that money.
Speaker 1: There is a Defense Alliance agreement between our two countries
Speaker 1: that far, the benefit far is far in favor of
Speaker 1: the Kataris than it is America. And so it's trust me,
Speaker 1: it's it's a small price to pay, relatively speaking, for
Speaker 1: what we're offering them. Anyway, God bless Texas. Cindy, appreciate you.
Speaker 2: Thank you.
