Here's why I 0:01:11.360 --> 0:01:15.080 take my two week vacation every year. This is that 0:01:15.240 --> 0:01:17.959 this is my big vacation of the year. Even my 0:01:18.000 --> 0:01:20.360 own family says, what's wrong with you? You work too much? 0:01:20.480 --> 0:01:22.360 Just take more time, take more than I'm like, Ah, 0:01:22.680 --> 0:01:26.279 I go, there's something happening. I gotta go in. Um. 0:01:26.400 --> 0:01:30.280 What happens though, is and I did not watch a 0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:32.959 lot of TV. I did a lot of reading. I've 0:01:32.959 --> 0:01:35.520 been reading Taylor Callwell novels and a bunch of other 0:01:35.520 --> 0:01:40.200 stuff that's important in my life. And you just, after 0:01:40.319 --> 0:01:45.039 like a week, this whole adrenaline life that I live 0:01:45.200 --> 0:01:49.240 on radio and TV, I start becoming like a self 0:01:49.280 --> 0:01:53.040 that I remember from last Christmas. Because that's that's about 0:01:53.040 --> 0:01:55.840 the only time the adrenaline is not racing totally and 0:01:55.960 --> 0:02:00.440 completely and utterly through my entire body system. I basically 0:02:00.440 --> 0:02:02.600 become human being again. Yeah, and you know, I get 0:02:02.600 --> 0:02:05.040 a little more thoughtful, a little more soulful. I used 0:02:05.080 --> 0:02:06.840 to go ski every year, but I don't do skiing 0:02:06.920 --> 0:02:09.600 much anymore, not that I don't want to. When Sun 0:02:09.680 --> 0:02:11.000 broke his leg when he was eight, and that was 0:02:11.040 --> 0:02:12.640 it for me, I would just I couldn't go back 0:02:13.360 --> 0:02:16.040 and know what a whimp? Right, No, but I skied 0:02:16.040 --> 0:02:18.480 my whole life. But to something like I find God 0:02:18.520 --> 0:02:21.120 on the mountain, it's just that moment where you're looking 0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:26.880 out and you've just it's just majestic and anyway. So 0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:32.040 I did watch some TV, not a lot, not a 0:02:32.080 --> 0:02:34.360 lot of news. I kept up with the news, but 0:02:34.480 --> 0:02:38.840 mostly online. And I have started just thinking and thinking 0:02:38.880 --> 0:02:41.360 and thinking about what this year is gonna be. Like 0:02:43.840 --> 0:02:47.880 it's culminated in what I am going to describe to 0:02:47.919 --> 0:02:52.120 you as a mission statement for both this show on 0:02:52.360 --> 0:02:56.280 radio and the TV show Hannity on the Fox News channel. 0:02:57.040 --> 0:03:01.040 And it's like things have gotten to a place that 0:03:01.160 --> 0:03:07.520 it's so bad that the forces of hatred against this 0:03:07.639 --> 0:03:13.160 president are so aligned, they're so out of their minds, 0:03:13.880 --> 0:03:19.440 they are so fixated on destroying the president, that there 0:03:19.560 --> 0:03:22.200 is in my mind, it just started coalescing in my 0:03:22.240 --> 0:03:27.919 mind that there's got to be another focus in this 0:03:28.040 --> 0:03:32.680 country on far more important things than well, what did 0:03:32.720 --> 0:03:35.320 President Trump and Melanie had stay to seven year olds 0:03:35.320 --> 0:03:39.720 calling in about Santa. That became a big controversy. I 0:03:39.840 --> 0:03:42.360 turned on the news and there, well he said, is 0:03:42.400 --> 0:03:46.040 seven about the age where maybe you know, kids believe 0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:49.200 in the sand and lesser. Oh, you know, you think 0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:52.200 it's the biggest sin of the century, and they turn 0:03:52.280 --> 0:03:56.720 it into the biggest deal. Or the stock market fluctuations, 0:03:57.160 --> 0:04:00.800 they turn that into the biggest deal. This is what 0:04:00.840 --> 0:04:04.280 they'll never tell you. Tonight. To make my point that 0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:09.200 Wall Street Journal pointed out total US retail sales rose 0:04:09.360 --> 0:04:14.600 five point one percent for the holiday season. So, I 0:04:14.640 --> 0:04:18.760 mean serious, eight hundred and fifty billion dollars was spent 0:04:19.440 --> 0:04:23.919 this holiday season. Real middle class wages. Just in the 0:04:24.000 --> 0:04:28.839 last year, this is the President's accomplishments. Middle class wages 0:04:29.400 --> 0:04:33.799 went up their hourly earnings, eclipsing the three percent growth 0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:40.159 mark for the first time in twelve years. That means 0:04:40.200 --> 0:04:44.599 the working men and women in this country they benefited 0:04:44.960 --> 0:04:50.560 from the Trump economy. They've benefited from the Trump policies. Economically, 0:04:50.600 --> 0:04:53.880 we already knew about, you know, four point two percent 0:04:53.960 --> 0:04:57.320 GDP growth, three point four percent GDP growth. I mean, 0:04:57.480 --> 0:05:00.680 these are things we hadn't been seen. I know that 0:05:00.720 --> 0:05:02.760 there are a lot of you. Look, I'm not a 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:06.000 big stock market person, but my buddy who does the 0:05:06.000 --> 0:05:09.080 stock market, my financial guy, sometimes writes a column for us. 0:05:09.760 --> 0:05:12.320 You know. He always says, if you're not willing, if 0:05:12.360 --> 0:05:14.880 you need the money, you're putting in the stock market, 0:05:15.000 --> 0:05:18.040 and within ten years, don't put it in the stock market, 0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:21.200 put it in something, you know, like a treasury or 0:05:21.200 --> 0:05:22.880 a muni. I don't know. I don't even know what 0:05:22.960 --> 0:05:25.719 these things are. Honestly, I pay so little attention to 0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:28.360 this crap. I just don't care. It's not my area 0:05:28.400 --> 0:05:31.719 of interest. I always I've always felt in my heart, 0:05:31.720 --> 0:05:35.159 wall streets raked. I've always felt it's a betting game. 0:05:35.839 --> 0:05:37.880 And yeah, it goes up and people are just made 0:05:37.960 --> 0:05:40.320 so much on this stock and so much on this stock. Okay, 0:05:40.320 --> 0:05:42.920 well what about when the stock goes down. I don't 0:05:42.920 --> 0:05:45.640 want to go through the emotional ebb and flow. I'm 0:05:45.720 --> 0:05:49.559 kind of about wealth, not protect You want your money 0:05:49.560 --> 0:05:53.480 to grow and there are far safer investments. You just 0:05:53.520 --> 0:05:56.040 have to do your due diligence that sort of thing. Anyway, 0:05:56.080 --> 0:06:01.839 So we have record holiday sales this Christmas season. The president. 0:06:01.920 --> 0:06:04.960 Here are his top ten accomplishments in one year. Remember 0:06:05.000 --> 0:06:08.120 Brett Kavanaugh mentioned him as a candidate. Well, he's now 0:06:08.160 --> 0:06:11.240 on the Supreme Court. He kept that promise. The President 0:06:11.320 --> 0:06:18.000 confronted China. Now, China's capitulating on tariffs for automobiles, soybeans, vegetables, 0:06:18.040 --> 0:06:21.040 and other products that they will be importing from the 0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:23.960 United States. That is a big win for the country. 0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:28.640 Middle class wages rising again, eclipsing three percent for the 0:06:28.640 --> 0:06:32.039 first time since the Great Recession. The President got the 0:06:32.160 --> 0:06:35.760 US Mexico Canada trade deal. All those people saying, well, 0:06:35.800 --> 0:06:37.440 Mexico is never going to pay for the wall. That 0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:41.320 was another controversy. I'll play it later. I asked the President, 0:06:41.360 --> 0:06:44.160 you don't think Mexico's gonna write you a check and 0:06:44.240 --> 0:06:45.760 pay for the wall, do you? And he said no, 0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:47.920 I'm going to negotiate a better trade deal so it'll 0:06:47.960 --> 0:06:51.320 pay for itself. Well, that's exactly what he did with 0:06:51.360 --> 0:06:56.360 the Mexico Canada trade deal. He ended that horrific Iranian 0:06:56.440 --> 0:07:00.560 nuclear deal. That was another success. Last year, he moved 0:07:00.560 --> 0:07:03.960 the embassy to Jerusalem. That was another promise made in 0:07:04.000 --> 0:07:06.720 a promise kept. We see that he's been able to 0:07:06.760 --> 0:07:11.080 smash the ISIS Caliphate in Syria to the point now 0:07:11.480 --> 0:07:15.040 the JV team is under control. Of course, the JV 0:07:15.200 --> 0:07:19.320 team was what Baracusain Obama called them, just the JV. 0:07:20.280 --> 0:07:24.760 We see record low unemployment for Hispanic Americans, African Americans, 0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:28.320 women in the workplace, youth unemployment are vets, are getting 0:07:28.360 --> 0:07:31.200 back to work in numbers that we haven't seen in decades. 0:07:31.960 --> 0:07:35.840 The President held the line on migrant caravans and one 0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:38.560 of the things I am most excited about that I 0:07:38.600 --> 0:07:41.840 don't think people understand how huge this is. But because 0:07:41.840 --> 0:07:45.160 he opened up drilling in Alaska, we haven't even started 0:07:45.240 --> 0:07:50.760 yet in Anoir and the President ending burdensome regulation. Well, 0:07:50.800 --> 0:07:54.760 we now had in twenty eighteen record American oil production, 0:07:55.600 --> 0:07:59.560 and the US has now surpassed Russia and Saudi Arabia, 0:07:59.640 --> 0:08:03.280 and we are now the world's largest producer of crude oil. 0:08:03.960 --> 0:08:06.640 And I'm not even talking about natural gas and clean coal. 0:08:07.600 --> 0:08:10.320 You add those jobs to the American economy when they'll 0:08:10.360 --> 0:08:15.119 be coming online as the expansion capabilities rise. What's gonna 0:08:15.120 --> 0:08:17.520 happen is you're gonna have millions of Americans get high 0:08:17.600 --> 0:08:21.000 paying career jobs. Well, that's gonna mean new homes for them. 0:08:21.000 --> 0:08:23.480 And new cars and trucks. For them. That's going to 0:08:23.560 --> 0:08:27.400 mean an increase in their lifestyle and dramatic improvement in 0:08:27.440 --> 0:08:31.160 their lifestyles, better lives for themselves, more opportunities for their kids, 0:08:31.800 --> 0:08:34.960 and then we're not dependent on far and oil as 0:08:35.000 --> 0:08:39.160 the lifeblood of our economy. So I'm on vacation and 0:08:39.200 --> 0:08:43.520 I'm realizing you're never ever ever gonna get that news 0:08:44.440 --> 0:08:50.320 except from a few locations, some talk radio host summer phonies, 0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:57.200 a few cable TV shows, mostly on Fox, and that's 0:08:57.240 --> 0:09:02.640 about it. You got all of these forces. First, you 0:09:02.720 --> 0:09:06.480 got the crazy Democrats. They hate Democrats, they hate Trump. 0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:11.040 Maxim Waters hates Donald Trump. Nancy Pelosi hates Donald Trump. 0:09:11.840 --> 0:09:16.679 Adam Schiff hates Donald Trump, Chuck Schumer, the flip flopper 0:09:16.760 --> 0:09:20.760 himself on immigration, they all hate Trump. The news media 0:09:20.840 --> 0:09:24.679 in this country again, I'm watching the president in Iraq 0:09:24.880 --> 0:09:29.880 and they're criticizing him because he's visiting the troops. I'm like, wow, 0:09:30.679 --> 0:09:34.520 we've gotten this low. And then he's talking to kids 0:09:34.559 --> 0:09:38.520 on Christmas. He didn't go tomorrow lago. He says, I'm here, 0:09:38.679 --> 0:09:40.720 I'm willing to do a deal. It's Christmas Eve. Hello, 0:09:41.600 --> 0:09:45.320 I'm trying to be funny. Then you add to this, 0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:49.640 you know, we've got these five forces of hate against 0:09:49.640 --> 0:09:52.679 the president. I just said the five forces, but now 0:09:52.720 --> 0:09:56.160 I would say the five forces of hate. He got 0:09:56.160 --> 0:09:59.920 the Democratic Party. If Donald Trump cured cancer and gave 0:10:00.120 --> 0:10:03.760 every American a million dollars today, they'd still hate them. 0:10:04.520 --> 0:10:07.160 Then you got their willing accomplices, an extension of the 0:10:07.160 --> 0:10:11.880 Democratic Party. That's the hate Trump media and probably the 0:10:11.880 --> 0:10:16.360 most obvious haters. And it's every second, every minute, every hour, 0:10:16.480 --> 0:10:22.400 every day, a NonStop loop of hating Trump. And most 0:10:22.400 --> 0:10:24.360 of the American newspapers are a part of it. The 0:10:24.440 --> 0:10:27.080 networks are a part of it. You got two cable 0:10:27.200 --> 0:10:31.520 channels just dedicated to hating Trump every minute of every day. 0:10:32.720 --> 0:10:35.760 And then you got the deep state. By the way, 0:10:36.040 --> 0:10:39.439 watch that boomerang come back this year. Oh it's coming back. 0:10:40.280 --> 0:10:42.120 What we've reported to you is all going to happen. 0:10:42.760 --> 0:10:44.920 I won't get into that now. But they hate Trump. 0:10:45.679 --> 0:10:50.840 Remember you are a We are smelly Walmart people. According 0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:55.440 to Peter Struck. We are irredeemable deplorables. According to Hillary, 0:10:55.960 --> 0:11:01.040 we are bitter, angry Americans that cling to God, uns, Bibles, 0:11:01.200 --> 0:11:07.400 and religion as Barack Obama once described us. But here's 0:11:07.440 --> 0:11:11.840 the problem, is any of what they're going to do 0:11:12.120 --> 0:11:17.200 or say they're gonna do this year gonna help the 0:11:17.320 --> 0:11:21.560 men and women in this country, the forgotten men and women. 0:11:22.160 --> 0:11:28.360 They're gonna be fixating all of their hatred on one man. Well, 0:11:28.400 --> 0:11:31.040 we're not going to do that this show and on 0:11:31.160 --> 0:11:34.200 Hannity of the TV Show, We're going to go in 0:11:34.200 --> 0:11:38.120 a different direction, and we're gonna we are going to 0:11:38.160 --> 0:11:43.520 watch out for the things that matter to you, protecting 0:11:43.800 --> 0:11:47.880 your security, making sure the economy grows to help you, 0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:51.360 and the decisions we need to make as a country 0:11:51.800 --> 0:11:55.560 so that we are strong and prosperous, not only for 0:11:55.600 --> 0:12:00.080 this generation but for future generations, Which means we have 0:12:00.120 --> 0:12:02.760 a lot of people to watch. So we're gonna add this, 0:12:03.360 --> 0:12:05.120 you know, new segment of the program. We're gonna have, 0:12:05.679 --> 0:12:09.800 well call it Hannity Watch. Hannity Watch on the economy. Okay, 0:12:09.880 --> 0:12:13.480 statistics you're never gonna get anywhere else. Hannity Watch on 0:12:13.520 --> 0:12:17.439 the government shutdown? What deal is being offered? Why won't 0:12:17.440 --> 0:12:19.120 they take the deal? Right now? There's a deal on 0:12:19.160 --> 0:12:21.920 the table. You give the money for the wall for 0:12:21.960 --> 0:12:25.319 the president, which is good for our security to stop 0:12:25.400 --> 0:12:29.640 drug trafficking, human trafficking criminals from crossing over the border, 0:12:30.840 --> 0:12:33.920 and they'd get protection for some of the DOCCA kids. 0:12:34.200 --> 0:12:38.520 Sounds like a reasonable deal. We're gonna have Hannity Watch 0:12:39.040 --> 0:12:43.440 on the hate Trump media, Hannity Watch on the hate 0:12:43.440 --> 0:12:46.560 Trump deep State, We're gonna have Hannity Watch on the 0:12:46.559 --> 0:12:51.120 hate Trump Hollywood gang, Hannity Watch on the socialism push 0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:53.920 in the country. And at the end of the day, 0:12:54.440 --> 0:12:58.120 we're gonna cover the things that no other show, that 0:12:58.240 --> 0:13:00.920 no other no members of the media seem to want 0:13:00.920 --> 0:13:04.079 to cover. And we'll cover the lies and the double standard. 0:13:04.120 --> 0:13:06.160 And we're going to stand up for equal justice under 0:13:06.160 --> 0:13:09.120 the law, and we're going to stand up for equal 0:13:09.120 --> 0:13:13.080 application under the law. And moving forward, what I have 0:13:13.120 --> 0:13:16.000 concluded is there's got to be one show in America 0:13:16.080 --> 0:13:20.000 that's that wants to help protect and look out for you, 0:13:20.080 --> 0:13:23.840 the American people, And we're going to watch these forces 0:13:23.840 --> 0:13:26.960 of hate. We're going to chronicle it, and we're going 0:13:27.000 --> 0:13:31.280 to offer solutions that they're not capable of. We got 0:13:31.280 --> 0:13:35.319 to protect the country against forces that would shred our constitution. 0:13:36.160 --> 0:13:40.960 This is about protecting core values, due process, equal justice, 0:13:41.040 --> 0:13:45.079 equal application. We're gonna be your watchdog. We're going to 0:13:45.160 --> 0:13:49.920 expose corruption and lies and double standards. We're gonna expose bias, 0:13:50.360 --> 0:13:53.720 and we're going to expose who the real haters in 0:13:53.760 --> 0:13:57.000 this country are. They're not people that care about you. 0:13:57.880 --> 0:13:59.960 They're not people that care about your kids. You're few 0:14:00.320 --> 0:14:04.920 your generations jobs, protecting the economy, protecting you know. Look 0:14:04.920 --> 0:14:06.800 what happened with this cop that was killed by any 0:14:06.800 --> 0:14:11.640 illegal immigrant? Well, hello, maybe any do we have a 0:14:12.360 --> 0:14:14.840 do we have an obligation to protect the people of 0:14:14.840 --> 0:14:17.719 this country. So We're kind of going to be an 0:14:17.720 --> 0:14:20.840 island and I'm going to tell you more about it Tonight. 0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:25.960 We've got Hannity Watch on the border battle, the shutdown battle, 0:14:26.040 --> 0:14:28.040 and Hannity Watch on the deep state. All coming up. 0:14:28.080 --> 0:14:32.800 New Gangridge joins us today. Also, well, the latest we've 0:14:32.840 --> 0:14:35.880 watched missed a lot of deep state news. John Solomon 0:14:35.920 --> 0:14:38.680 will check in. We'll get to your calls today. But 0:14:38.760 --> 0:14:42.160 we're gonna do this differently. They're going in one direction, 0:14:42.560 --> 0:14:45.920 and I'm going in the direction of we will look 0:14:45.960 --> 0:14:49.920 out and watch all of this hatred and expose it 0:14:50.600 --> 0:14:54.000 and offer the solutions that will hopefully make the country 0:14:54.040 --> 0:14:58.960 a better, say first, stronger, and more secure place. We'll continue. Hey, 0:14:58.960 --> 0:15:01.520 if you're one of thirty four a million Americans that smokes, 0:15:01.600 --> 0:15:04.120 you know what a hassle it can be. For me. 0:15:04.400 --> 0:15:07.359 I'm out playing golf and I come back smelling like cigars. 0:15:07.720 --> 0:15:10.720 It's the smell on your hands and your breath, your clothes. 0:15:10.960 --> 0:15:14.080 But now, thanks to Jewel, you don't have to worry 0:15:14.080 --> 0:15:18.080 about it anymore. Jewel is a vaporizer. It does contain nicotine. 0:15:18.240 --> 0:15:21.640 For a satisfying transition. Now, when I found Jewel, it 0:15:21.680 --> 0:15:23.960 was a complete game changer in my life. I don't 0:15:23.960 --> 0:15:27.880 smoke any cigars any longer. And Jewel was designed by 0:15:27.960 --> 0:15:31.440 smokers for smokers to be an alternative to whatever it 0:15:31.480 --> 0:15:33.560 is you're smoking. So if you're one of thirty four 0:15:33.560 --> 0:15:37.200 million adults who do smoke cigars, cigarettes, pipe, whatever, well 0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:39.840 there is an alternative to all of them. Now, to 0:15:39.880 --> 0:15:43.480 discover the smoking alternative that's like nothing you've ever tried, 0:15:43.560 --> 0:15:50.240 just visit Juul dot com slash Switch America. That's ju 0:15:50.680 --> 0:15:54.960 Ul dot com slash Switch America. Now warning, this product 0:15:54.960 --> 0:16:00.360 does contain nicotine, and nicotine is addictive. So it's gonna 0:16:00.360 --> 0:16:02.440 finish this thought then, we'll get to the government shutdown 0:16:02.840 --> 0:16:06.360 and the why the border battle is worth fighting for, 0:16:07.000 --> 0:16:09.520 because it is worth fighting for, and we have a 0:16:09.520 --> 0:16:12.960 lot of deep state news. We know that Mary Juliani 0:16:13.000 --> 0:16:17.320 accused Muller of some pretty serious stuff during the holiday, 0:16:17.400 --> 0:16:20.360 and I think that he's probably right accusing him of 0:16:20.400 --> 0:16:22.720 destroying the evidence as it relates to struck and page 0:16:22.800 --> 0:16:27.600 his phone. So we'll get to that very simply. I 0:16:27.760 --> 0:16:32.600 see a media landscape with just one message hating Trump. 0:16:33.440 --> 0:16:36.760 I mean, they's this is not dislike they hate him. 0:16:37.760 --> 0:16:41.960 They think they're gonna impeach him. They're not. You're never 0:16:42.040 --> 0:16:43.960 gonna get two thirds of the Senate. They may impeach 0:16:44.000 --> 0:16:46.200 him in the House, because you gotta in ninety days, 0:16:46.240 --> 0:16:49.440 America is gonna know what a bunch of lunatics Nancy 0:16:49.480 --> 0:16:52.040 Pelosi and her team is. I'm telling you it's gonna 0:16:52.080 --> 0:16:55.360 be fun covering them. And we have plans that we 0:16:55.480 --> 0:16:57.720 can't reveal because there are people that don't think in 0:16:57.720 --> 0:17:00.440 this business and they copy everything I do. But we 0:17:00.480 --> 0:17:01.960 have good plans. But I'm gonna tell you what this 0:17:02.000 --> 0:17:04.480 show is going to be about going forward. We're gonna 0:17:04.480 --> 0:17:08.159 be your watchdog. They can hate the President all they want. 0:17:08.600 --> 0:17:11.960 They can create false hysteria, impeachment, impeachment all they want, 0:17:12.000 --> 0:17:14.880 It's not going to happen. And we're going to evaluate 0:17:15.359 --> 0:17:18.439 the important issues of the day as a show that 0:17:18.560 --> 0:17:22.800 is a separate island dedicated to protecting are deeply held 0:17:22.800 --> 0:17:26.159 American values and fighting what it's good for you and 0:17:26.240 --> 0:17:30.800 you're in the American family in general. Simple. So that's 0:17:30.800 --> 0:17:34.680 basically it. We're calling you Hannity Watch, and we're gonna 0:17:34.680 --> 0:17:38.960 be different, and we're gonna literally now cover the news 0:17:38.960 --> 0:17:42.720 and information that you can't get from the hate Trump media, 0:17:42.880 --> 0:17:46.800 the hate Trump Democratic Party, the hate Trump, deep state 0:17:47.640 --> 0:17:51.040 hate Trump, never Republicans. I honestly could care less what 0:17:51.080 --> 0:17:54.199 Mitt Romney has to say about Donald Trump. You know 0:17:54.200 --> 0:17:57.200 what I care about. I care about record low unemployment 0:17:58.320 --> 0:18:01.760 for women in the workplace is an Americans, African Americans, 0:18:01.760 --> 0:18:04.119 and the fact that you don't want Donald Trump's style 0:18:05.600 --> 0:18:09.320 doesn't matter to me. We're now the biggest producer of 0:18:09.640 --> 0:18:13.680 oil and energy on the planet. I like that because 0:18:13.720 --> 0:18:16.879 that means high paying career jobs for my fellow Americans. 0:18:17.840 --> 0:18:20.240 I like the fact that the President's fighting to build 0:18:20.240 --> 0:18:24.160 the wall to protect our southern border from human trafficking, 0:18:24.560 --> 0:18:28.320 drug trafficking, and those that would want to bring harm 0:18:28.359 --> 0:18:30.800 to our American family. I think we have a right 0:18:30.800 --> 0:18:34.240 to vet people. Democrats sounded that way four years ago. 0:18:34.800 --> 0:18:36.760 Now they change their two and why just because Donald 0:18:36.800 --> 0:18:40.399 Trump wants it. I don't care that they think Robert 0:18:40.480 --> 0:18:42.919 Muller's stupid report is going to be the most interesting 0:18:43.000 --> 0:18:46.120 thing in the year. It's not. There is no evidence 0:18:46.359 --> 0:18:49.720 of Trump Russia collusion that never has been and all 0:18:49.720 --> 0:18:53.000 these processed crimes that they get, you know, all worked 0:18:53.040 --> 0:18:56.720 up about, don't mean a thing. So we'll have things 0:18:56.760 --> 0:19:00.720 like look at the bottom line is both here on television, 0:19:00.760 --> 0:19:02.760 this show is going to be an island unto itself. 0:19:04.040 --> 0:19:06.040 We're going to be very different than anything else you 0:19:06.080 --> 0:19:08.679 can get anywhere else on TV and on radio except 0:19:08.680 --> 0:19:11.760 for my fellow conservative radio hosts that do a great 0:19:11.840 --> 0:19:14.520 job every day, and there are many of them, and 0:19:14.560 --> 0:19:17.680 I you know what, thank God they're doing what they're doing. 0:19:19.040 --> 0:19:23.000 But we're gonna we're literally dedicated. We want to protect 0:19:23.040 --> 0:19:28.639 and preserve American values, American principles. We're not going to 0:19:28.720 --> 0:19:32.920 be governed by this what is now a pathological hatred, 0:19:33.440 --> 0:19:39.119 an irrational hatred of fixation of focus that's never ending 0:19:39.440 --> 0:19:42.800 on one person, not even about the person as much 0:19:42.840 --> 0:19:45.520 as it is about the policies. He just happened to 0:19:45.560 --> 0:19:48.119 have a personality that fights for the things that he 0:19:48.280 --> 0:19:51.399 ran on, and he steps on toes and he breaks 0:19:51.440 --> 0:19:55.280 dishes and he makes people uncomfortable. Okay, well, too bad. 0:19:56.359 --> 0:20:00.679 He's on a conoclastic person and I think, you know, 0:20:00.760 --> 0:20:04.159 a lot's writing on him getting this wall built and 0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:06.280 holding out. I think it is an important thing to do, 0:20:07.520 --> 0:20:10.119 you know, but we there's so much more to it. 0:20:10.240 --> 0:20:13.639 This is what I realized over a vacation. You know, 0:20:13.680 --> 0:20:18.080 we've got American values and principles, and there's got to 0:20:18.119 --> 0:20:20.960 be some people out here that are dedicated to bringing 0:20:20.960 --> 0:20:25.040 you the truth and a different point of view. That's 0:20:25.040 --> 0:20:28.240 what Hannity Watch is all about. Hannity Watch on the economy. 0:20:28.240 --> 0:20:30.880 How are things going to impact your family in your pocketbook? 0:20:31.920 --> 0:20:35.280 Hannity Watch on healthcare. Okay, how do we get the 0:20:35.359 --> 0:20:37.760 best care at the lowest cost for you and your family. 0:20:38.400 --> 0:20:42.400 That's where doctor Josh Umber comes in Atlas MD, Healthcare Cooperatives, 0:20:42.440 --> 0:20:46.400 health savings accounts. Hannity Watch on media bias. By the way, 0:20:46.400 --> 0:20:50.840 that's like that's like fishing in a barrel. Honestly, you 0:20:51.000 --> 0:20:53.159 just you can't miss. If I wanted to do a 0:20:53.200 --> 0:20:56.520 Hannity Watch on the media bias segment every second of 0:20:56.560 --> 0:20:58.560 every day, I could fill the hour. We saw the 0:20:58.560 --> 0:21:02.440 President signing a campaign hat, a red hat, his make 0:21:02.480 --> 0:21:05.119 America Great Again hat. Troops are not supposed to be 0:21:05.200 --> 0:21:09.439 involved in political activities. The US military is not a 0:21:09.560 --> 0:21:13.399 political force. And there's no question the same Trump twenty 0:21:13.480 --> 0:21:17.359 twenty and make America great again. Those are political slogans 0:21:17.480 --> 0:21:22.720 of a Trump campaign. They are not governmental sayings to 0:21:22.840 --> 0:21:25.080 put to say the least, a president seems to have 0:21:25.240 --> 0:21:27.600 confused in some way this troop to point, this troop 0:21:27.760 --> 0:21:30.440 visit with a campaign rallies. You told me I'm getting 0:21:30.480 --> 0:21:32.200 a ten percent raise, and I'm only getting a two 0:21:32.200 --> 0:21:35.760 point six percent raise. I'd be pretty pissed off, especially 0:21:35.840 --> 0:21:38.160 if I was in a war zone risking my life 0:21:38.160 --> 0:21:41.600 every day. Abassador Rice is right. The man does not 0:21:41.800 --> 0:21:45.120 believe in what America stands for. What did you make 0:21:45.200 --> 0:21:47.920 of that address that Donald Trump gave in front of 0:21:48.000 --> 0:21:50.640 US troops in I Rock. I thought it was obscene. 0:21:50.800 --> 0:21:55.080 We turned on CNN and we saw the President politicizing 0:21:55.080 --> 0:21:58.480 a Christmas message was like if we kept saying he's 0:21:58.520 --> 0:22:02.040 like the Grinch. Every time he's around military audiences, he 0:22:02.160 --> 0:22:04.879 tends to politicize it. Mister Trump once again used a 0:22:05.000 --> 0:22:11.240 captive audience of American heroes to push his unpopular domestic agenda, 0:22:11.359 --> 0:22:15.159 this time the Wall. There's an important step, albeit one 0:22:15.200 --> 0:22:17.200 that took a long time from to do, or after 0:22:17.240 --> 0:22:21.240 two years in presidency, visiting a soldiers in a rock 0:22:21.880 --> 0:22:24.080 this was kind of over the edge. Did the president 0:22:24.359 --> 0:22:27.000 from what we know, get a good sense of what 0:22:27.040 --> 0:22:30.000 the situation actually is there on the ground. Well, I 0:22:30.040 --> 0:22:31.880 don't know how you can't after three hours, But that's 0:22:31.880 --> 0:22:34.680 just me. Yes, it's just another flash over substance type 0:22:34.680 --> 0:22:38.480 of thing. Of everything with this president is staged, it events. 0:22:38.600 --> 0:22:43.200 It seems very disingenuous. It seems so contrived and so disingenuous. 0:22:43.400 --> 0:22:45.240 You should have made it earlier. He only made it 0:22:45.240 --> 0:22:47.720 because Maddis Quinton. He had a lot of pressure saying 0:22:47.720 --> 0:22:53.280 he had gone anywhere doom and gloom and hatred and 0:22:54.840 --> 0:22:58.960 it's a it's now really a mental condition. They can't 0:22:59.000 --> 0:23:01.480 help it. Path a litegical. I don't think they can 0:23:01.520 --> 0:23:06.680 help themselves. They wake up every day and work themselves 0:23:06.760 --> 0:23:10.640 up into a frenzy. By the way, the President intervened 0:23:10.680 --> 0:23:14.119 to make sure the Coastguard gets paid during the government shutdown. 0:23:14.720 --> 0:23:17.679 I personally advocate. I hope that they're able to and 0:23:17.760 --> 0:23:19.240 they always do it, so I don't think it's going 0:23:19.280 --> 0:23:20.919 to be a problem. I want those people that have 0:23:21.000 --> 0:23:24.280 been furlough to get their money back. I know that 0:23:24.280 --> 0:23:27.400 that is. You know, there's importance around Christmas time. People 0:23:27.440 --> 0:23:31.359 have bills to pay. It's hard, and I think he 0:23:31.400 --> 0:23:36.760 will hang on. I gotta say one quick note, yes, yes, 0:23:38.200 --> 0:23:44.639 and yes, all right, I'm back to the show, and 0:23:44.720 --> 0:23:47.920 I will tell you that. You know, it's seventy five 0:23:48.000 --> 0:23:50.119 million dollars payroll. You know the President will do that. 0:23:50.160 --> 0:23:52.880 The President's got to hold out for his wall. Democrat 0:23:52.920 --> 0:23:54.800 if they want to wait three months, I'm fine with that. 0:23:55.680 --> 0:24:00.000 Essential services will continue, people will get their Social Security checks. 0:24:00.480 --> 0:24:04.679 The military is standing by, Department of Homeland Security standing by. 0:24:04.760 --> 0:24:08.080 The Democrats wanted this wall themselves just a couple of 0:24:08.119 --> 0:24:10.800 short years ago, but now because Trump wants it and 0:24:10.880 --> 0:24:13.879 their derangement syndrome kicked in, now they don't want the wall. 0:24:14.520 --> 0:24:16.560 I mean, we've got a lot. We've got a Hannity 0:24:16.600 --> 0:24:21.080 Watch on national security. This is about protecting our homeland 0:24:22.040 --> 0:24:29.520
