Speaker 1: All right, glad you with a slot happening today, and
Speaker 1: glad you're a part of the program. Right down on
Speaker 1: toll free telephone number. It's eight hundred nine for one, Shawn,
Speaker 1: if you want to be a part of the program.
Speaker 1: Uh New Kingridge has been weighing in heavily on the
Speaker 1: comings and goings of the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to
Speaker 1: the U. S. Supreme Court. The FBI report is finished,
Speaker 1: and Republican after Republican after Republicans says there is absolutely
Speaker 1: no new information in this report, none whatsoever. Bob Corker
Speaker 1: actually said it offers zero corroboration, which, by the way,
Speaker 1: we knew ahead of time. Remember you know the Senate Judiciary,
Speaker 1: and and I don't often give Republicans in recent years,
Speaker 1: by any stretch, the benefit of the doubt, and I'm
Speaker 1: often more critical of them than Democrats. Republicans have handled
Speaker 1: this with the appropriate level of seriousness that this topic deserves.
Speaker 1: Knowing that there are evil people in the world, that
Speaker 1: there are predators, there are rapists, there are people that
Speaker 1: commit horrible evil and atrocities on a regular basis, it's scary.
Speaker 1: You're raising kids, you know all too well, but they
Speaker 1: did the right thing. They brought in a special prosecutor
Speaker 1: to to talk to an interview Professor Ford. Every consideration
Speaker 1: was given. Although one has to wonder why the attorney,
Speaker 1: of course recommended by Diane Feinstein, who never told Brett
Speaker 1: Cavana all the Republicans any of this that which he
Speaker 1: knew in July. Anyway, the attorney that's inconsistent on this
Speaker 1: important issue of our time. But anyway, Bob Corker even
Speaker 1: read the FBI report and he said it offers zero
Speaker 1: corroboration for Professor Ford's sexual assault allegation, and he will
Speaker 1: be voting to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the U. S.
Speaker 1: Supreme Court following this FBI background check that he said
Speaker 1: found absolutely zero corroboration of the allegations that have been made. Now, look,
Speaker 1: I told you from the get go, there was no
Speaker 1: way that there was going to be any other conclusion
Speaker 1: to this. For the following reason, when the Senate Judiciary Committee,
Speaker 1: when they finally got a wind of what Diane Feinstein
Speaker 1: and the Democrats knew back in July and that they
Speaker 1: hid from the Republicans when they got win and and
Speaker 1: the Washington Post piece published Professor Ford's account. Well, they
Speaker 1: sprung into action and they began their own investigation, and
Speaker 1: Professor Ford had mentioned that there were four people at
Speaker 1: the party where this alleged assault had occurred, and they
Speaker 1: did their due diligence and they interviewed the four people,
Speaker 1: and under the penalty of a felony, all four people
Speaker 1: went on the record, and some didn't remember the party
Speaker 1: in any way, shape, matter of form, including Professor Ford's
Speaker 1: one of her best friends. And Professor Ford had identified
Speaker 1: Mark Judges the one guy that would have been an
Speaker 1: eyewitness to this alleged assault back thirty six years ago.
Speaker 1: He said it absolutely positively did not happen. And then
Speaker 1: when the Democrats, you know, and you have Senator Snowflake
Speaker 1: going along with Senator Coon's and all, we just need
Speaker 1: a limited just limited in scope, just a quick, short
Speaker 1: investigation FBI. They should be able to wrap it up
Speaker 1: well in this case, and we'll talk about the other
Speaker 1: cases as well well. In this particular case, we don't
Speaker 1: have a place, we don't have a time, we don't
Speaker 1: have a location, we don't know the house, we don't
Speaker 1: even know the exact year, to be honest, anyways, so
Speaker 1: they had very limited room to to corroborate Professor Ford's
Speaker 1: story and what they the only available venue for them
Speaker 1: or avenue for them to pursue this case. Remember, they
Speaker 1: were never gonna make conclusions or recommendations. That's what we
Speaker 1: learned from Joe Biden back in. Anyway, they sprung into action.
Speaker 1: They went out. We already had Professor fords uh testimony
Speaker 1: now multiple points. You know, even though there was some
Speaker 1: inconsistencies between her testimony before the Senate and her tests
Speaker 1: and the account that she had given to the Washington Post,
Speaker 1: and her attorney failing to hand over any evidence as
Speaker 1: regards in regards to how the polygraph was administered or
Speaker 1: any of the therapy notes that they willingly handed over
Speaker 1: to the Washington Post. They would not hand that over
Speaker 1: to the FBI. So Deborah Katz, who was the liberal
Speaker 1: activist attorney for Professor Ford, who's donated tens of thousands
Speaker 1: of dollars to liberal causes and candidates, and she's the
Speaker 1: one that set off Paula Jones. Come on, it was
Speaker 1: only ten to twelve minutes. I mean, that doesn't constitute
Speaker 1: any type of workforce sexual harassment. Well, that shows she's
Speaker 1: not consistent on the issue. That was the person recommended
Speaker 1: by Diane Feinstein, who's making the recommendation while she's meeting
Speaker 1: privately with Judge Kavanaugh and not telling him a thing
Speaker 1: that any of this is going on. That's the left
Speaker 1: wing activist lawyer that that Professor Ford hired. I don't
Speaker 1: blame her. I mean, Diane Feinstein was the one that
Speaker 1: suggested it all anyway. So the only avenue for the
Speaker 1: FBI to pursue in the case of Professor Ford was
Speaker 1: to ask the four people that are ready testified under
Speaker 1: the penalty of felony the same questions that you would
Speaker 1: normally ask, were you there, do you have a recollection? No? No, no,
Speaker 1: no no. And Mark, Judge, you're supposedly an eye witness,
Speaker 1: did you see this behavior this account of Professor Ford's happened. No.
Speaker 1: And after that, I don't see any other area where
Speaker 1: the FBI has any investigative tool available to them to
Speaker 1: go down and discuss the story's are ready been told
Speaker 1: by Judge Kavanaugh. Is his passionate denial, and the story
Speaker 1: had been told in varying accounts in the Washington Post,
Speaker 1: and when Professor Ford testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee,
Speaker 1: it wasn't that hard a job for the FBI? Democrats
Speaker 1: are now the fixes it? What are you talking about? What?
Speaker 1: What else can they do at that point? What other
Speaker 1: investigative tool they have? If somebody makes a serious allegation
Speaker 1: about a serious crime committed, and they identify an eyewitness
Speaker 1: in the room at the time of the alleged attack,
Speaker 1: and the eyewitness denies it, the person that has accused
Speaker 1: denies it, there's no other venue, avenue of of investigation
Speaker 1: that they need to go into. But they went further.
Speaker 1: Even though The New York Times had well a lot
Speaker 1: of problems with Ms. Ramirez Is story. This is the
Speaker 1: this is the case that happened that was printed by
Speaker 1: the New Yorker, remember that particular case. And in the
Speaker 1: Ramirez case, she was claiming, well back in the first year,
Speaker 1: when he was a freshman in college, that he exposed
Speaker 1: himself to me. Well, after the New Yorker piece came
Speaker 1: out in the New York Times, they went out for
Speaker 1: over a week interviewing their words, not mine, dozens of people,
Speaker 1: all in an attempt to corroborate the story of Ms. Ramirez.
Speaker 1: New York Times reported they could find no one with
Speaker 1: firsthand knowledge nobody New York Times doesn't like Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: And then they also pointed out a bit of information
Speaker 1: that was a little bit scary, and they found out
Speaker 1: that Ms. Ramirez herself had been contacting former Yale classmates
Speaker 1: asking if they were called the incident, and told them
Speaker 1: that she could not be certain if Mr Kavanaugh was
Speaker 1: the one who exposed himself. Well, I hate to say it,
Speaker 1: based on her own words at that point, that's it.
Speaker 1: That case is over. Add to it her own admission
Speaker 1: that she quickly became inebriated, inebriated at the party, that
Speaker 1: she was foggy, slurring her words, and admitting in her
Speaker 1: own words that she had significant memory gaps from the evening.
Speaker 1: So the New York Times couldn't corroborate the story. And
Speaker 1: of course we've got door number three, Allegation number three,
Speaker 1: and that was the case of Julie sweat Nick. This
Speaker 1: is the woman that is being represented by the Attorney
Speaker 1: of the Year for the Democratic Party, Michael Evanati. Anyway,
Speaker 1: a lot of credibility issues as it relates to her,
Speaker 1: and we saw all of her allegations blow up as
Speaker 1: she backtracked big time on her story in an interview
Speaker 1: that I don't think ever should have aired on NBC
Speaker 1: News because she gave the names of four people that
Speaker 1: she said would be able to corroborate her story, and well,
Speaker 1: they couldn't find two of them or they wouldn't respond.
Speaker 1: One is dead and the other one said she don't
Speaker 1: don't even know who Julie sweat Nick is. I've never
Speaker 1: heard of this person. So that story fell apart. And
Speaker 1: he had an ext boyfriend that had filed the restraining
Speaker 1: order against her, And I'm not going to go through
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of credibility issues that she has. You know,
Speaker 1: I have a lot of facts evidence that what she's
Speaker 1: saying is not true at all from a former boyfriend.
Speaker 1: And well, anyway, and that was the third allegation, where
Speaker 1: are you supposed to go from here? I remember Ms.
Speaker 1: Weatneck was claiming that on a regular basis, almost a
Speaker 1: weekly weekend basis, it almost happened on a weekend basis,
Speaker 1: that these boys, including Brett Kavanaugh, as a teenager in
Speaker 1: high school, that they were regularly happened off in almost
Speaker 1: every weekend she was at ten of the parties, that
Speaker 1: they were literally drugging girls against their will, making sure
Speaker 1: they got inebriated and incapacitated, and that they would line
Speaker 1: up in the halls, the boys and the boy he's
Speaker 1: would then gang rape these girls. And it happened again
Speaker 1: almost on a weekend basis. And then it became in
Speaker 1: the interview. Well, I don't know if he spiked the punch,
Speaker 1: but I saw him give out red solo cups once
Speaker 1: and I saw him near the punch bowl and lining
Speaker 1: up in the hall. Well I didn't they weren't exactly
Speaker 1: lined up in the hall, but I saw him in
Speaker 1: a hall. This is not anything that would hold up
Speaker 1: anywhere under any significant scrutiny. And the FBI has done
Speaker 1: the best that they can do. And it's interesting that
Speaker 1: all the people that have been demanding all these FBI investigations,
Speaker 1: they don't want an FBI investigation into Keith Ellison, and
Speaker 1: the number two guy at the d n C always
Speaker 1: now thinking of resigning his position as the number two
Speaker 1: guy at the d NC. Not one person, not one
Speaker 1: Democrat angry today that the FBI investigation didn't go on
Speaker 1: in in perpetuity. Yeah, And that we're gonna get a
Speaker 1: vote finally on Saturday, up or down if if Judge Kavanaughs,
Speaker 1: if we if this stands what they have done here
Speaker 1: without any corroboration in any case, and I'm not even
Speaker 1: talking about the outright lies that were told and stories
Speaker 1: that were created and pushed into the media. But if
Speaker 1: you if we're now going to convict people based on accusation,
Speaker 1: guilt by accusation, or as Spartacus Corey Booker said, well,
Speaker 1: I mean, if there's enough accusations either we can't put
Speaker 1: them on the court. Well, based on his own words
Speaker 1: when he was a teenager, which I've read on this program,
Speaker 1: he doesn't belong as a U. S. Senator. So my
Speaker 1: hope is that just beyond vicious partisan rancor that is
Speaker 1: going on, beyond the accusations, we don't lose sight of
Speaker 1: what this moral moment is about in this country and
Speaker 1: ultimately ask ourselves the question, is this the right person
Speaker 1: to sit on the highest court in the land for
Speaker 1: a life time appointment? Ultimately, not whether he's innocent or guilty,
Speaker 1: this is not a trial, but ultimately has enough questions
Speaker 1: be raised that we should not move on to another candidate?
Speaker 1: I mean, just based on the allegations, is that the
Speaker 1: is this now the party that doesn't believe in the Constitution,
Speaker 1: the rule of law, do process, presumption of innocence. And
Speaker 1: this is a guy that admits to being a jerk
Speaker 1: when he was a teenager because he wrote about it.
Speaker 1: And where are the calls to interview? Have the FBI
Speaker 1: interview wanted to broderick all the same people, sanctimonious as
Speaker 1: they are, upset as they are. If we allow this
Speaker 1: to stand, and it's gonna come down and we're gonna
Speaker 1: get into some polly. This anger that is and righteous
Speaker 1: indignation has energy Conservatives, Republicans, even never Trumpers, believe it
Speaker 1: or not in ways that you know they could never
Speaker 1: have had happened on their own. You can thank the
Speaker 1: Democrats for this, and it's going to have an impact.
Speaker 1: Thirty three days from now, we'll get to all of that.
Speaker 1: New Gingrich is gonna weigh in on this, and what
Speaker 1: will Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins, and Jeff Flake do? What
Speaker 1: about mansion? Heidi hi Camp is out. The only possible
Speaker 1: Democrat now that could vote for Kavanaugh is Joe Manchion
Speaker 1: of West Virginia. That's a Trump plus forty two state
Speaker 1: in West Virginia. That's gonna be interesting right as we
Speaker 1: roll along, Sean Hannity Show. A lot of news we
Speaker 1: have going on today, All right, FBI report is now in.
Speaker 1: Senators have seen it. I love the Democrats. Actually, this
Speaker 1: is a cover up, a cover up of what with
Speaker 1: all the time seventeen days and we know that they've
Speaker 1: known about this since July? Who is covering up? What?
Speaker 1: What did the FBI cover up? Beyond asking the four
Speaker 1: people identified by Professor Ford that that we're at the
Speaker 1: party where the alleged attack occurred, what else is there
Speaker 1: to do when you don't even know the location? What
Speaker 1: are you supposed to do? In the case of Ms Ramirez,
Speaker 1: who I just brought up, or in the case of
Speaker 1: Julie switt Nick, who's changed her story dramatically and backtrack
Speaker 1: dramatically in an in an interview, mentioned people to corroborate
Speaker 1: that they don't even know who she is, or they're dead.
Speaker 1: There's nothing left now. Jeff Flake and Sue Susan Collins
Speaker 1: this morning if if there's any indication on how they're
Speaker 1: gonna vote, those two votes are needed. Lisa Murkowski has
Speaker 1: said she doesn't know yet, she hasn't read it. She
Speaker 1: wants to take time and actually read it in full.
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah blah. But Flake said that the new
Speaker 1: FBI report on Kavanaugh has failed to corroborate Professor Ford's
Speaker 1: allegation of sexual assault against the Supreme Court nominee. He
Speaker 1: said there's nothing in the FBI supplemental background check to
Speaker 1: corroborate the claims from Ford, which threw Kavanaugh's nomination into turmoil.
Speaker 1: And he said he agrees with his fellow GOP Senator
Speaker 1: Susan Collins in viewing the FBI report his thorough and
Speaker 1: failing to back up fords claims the Kavanaugh assaulted her
Speaker 1: at a house gathering in nineteen two. I think Susan
Speaker 1: Collins was quoted as saying it's very thorough. No new
Speaker 1: corroborative information came out. There's nothing left for the FBI
Speaker 1: to do. There's no cover up here. Alright to the
Speaker 1: top of the hour. Remember the all the Democrats wanted
Speaker 1: was the FBI. That's I just we give the FBI.
Speaker 1: They don't even need a week. Come, we give the
Speaker 1: maximum limited scope. Let's just get to the bottom of
Speaker 1: Professor Ford's allegations. Now they're angry at the FBI now
Speaker 1: they're saying that the fixes hit, that this is somehow
Speaker 1: rigged in some capacity. You know, the words they're using
Speaker 1: is you know there's a cover up. Yeah, he's not
Speaker 1: covering anything up. Well, we didn't. They didn't interview Professor
Speaker 1: Ford or or Judge Cavanaugh because they've been on the
Speaker 1: record again and again and again. That's not how you
Speaker 1: corroborate the veracity of Professor Ford's claims. You know, there's
Speaker 1: a certain segment in the left today and we've been
Speaker 1: we gotta understand this. So many people rushed to judgment
Speaker 1: in this country. I've told you by Richard Jewels story.
Speaker 1: He was listening to me the day that he was
Speaker 1: accused by the Atlantic Journal Constitution of fitting the profile
Speaker 1: of the lone bomber because he lived with his mother.
Speaker 1: And I'm on air at the time and I'm like,
Speaker 1: that's ridiculous. What does that mean? He fits the prole,
Speaker 1: he lives with his mom, he fits the profile. Wasn't true,
Speaker 1: Ducal Cross, I was right. We were right not to
Speaker 1: rush to judgment, while so many others did. UV. A. Ferguson, Missouri, Baltimore, Maryland,
Speaker 1: Cambridge Police Trayvon George Zimmerman. Everybody thinks they know nobody
Speaker 1: wanted a Vet Obama though because of course he was
Speaker 1: the anointed one. Ever since Donald Trump has been president,
Speaker 1: and since before he's become president, we now know they
Speaker 1: didn't care that they They Hillary not only got a rigged,
Speaker 1: fixed investigation into real obstruction of justice beyond any case,
Speaker 1: the biggest slam dunk guilty case ever, and it got
Speaker 1: rigged by the FBI that preferred her over Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: One agent struct saying, oh, she should win a hundred
Speaker 1: million of zero, and she gets, you know, her donor's money,
Speaker 1: funnels it through a law firm, hires a fusion GPS
Speaker 1: and OP research group. They hire a foreign national, which
Speaker 1: I thought was bad to have influenced our elections. A
Speaker 1: series of of documents come out. It's known as the Dossier,
Speaker 1: and the Democrat Rats, members of the Deep States spreading
Speaker 1: their lies, Donald Trump, hookers, Riz Carlton uring urinating on
Speaker 1: a bed. It's it and and so many people fed
Speaker 1: that light of the American people. How when are we
Speaker 1: gonna stop rewarding people for what is their playbook? Every
Speaker 1: single election season, Democratic Party of Missouri elect Republicans crosses
Speaker 1: are going to burn, whether James byrd Ad or al
Speaker 1: Gore you know before predominantly black audience. Republicans have the
Speaker 1: wrong changes as tone Caden's voice agenda for African Americans.
Speaker 1: They don't even want to count you in the census.
Speaker 1: A lie, dirty year, dirty water, misogynist Mitt Romney, Binders
Speaker 1: of women killed Grandma, Paul Ryan throwing granny over a cliff.
Speaker 1: I want to kill children. They only want to increase
Speaker 1: medicare seven percent a year, not ten percent a year.
Speaker 1: That that means they want your grandmother to die. They
Speaker 1: don't support extreme environmentalism that makes American business less competitive.
Speaker 1: They want dirty air and water. There has been a
Speaker 1: collective left wing meltdown. They have now have been now
Speaker 1: collectively the media, the Democrats, bordering on utter psychosis as
Speaker 1: it relates to all things Trump. These are fundamental and
Speaker 1: basic American principles that should apply to all of us.
Speaker 1: The presumption of innocence and due process. You know now, uh,
Speaker 1: Professor Ford's attorney. Now, well, now they claiming they have
Speaker 1: new witnesses to corroborate the testimony. Well, why didn't she
Speaker 1: mention it before the Senate a week ago? Or why
Speaker 1: didn't she mentioned it in the Washington Post. You know then,
Speaker 1: Now now there's an outright attack on the FBI by
Speaker 1: the very people that defended even Comey and Struck and
Speaker 1: Page and McCabe and some others. You know, the lawyers,
Speaker 1: the liberal hack, Debra Kat's lawyer, that Diane Feinstein helped
Speaker 1: the arrange for Professor Ford, that didn't believe Paula Jones
Speaker 1: and supported Al Franken. Investigation conducted over the past five
Speaker 1: days is a stain on the process, on the FBI
Speaker 1: and our American ideal of justice. No, the stain is
Speaker 1: the fact that that so many people rushed to judgment,
Speaker 1: no presumption of innocence, guilt by accusation. I believe this
Speaker 1: person or that person, but you know nothing about any
Speaker 1: evidence in the case. You've made a decision. Now it's
Speaker 1: now beginning to show up everywhere in the polls. President
Speaker 1: today as his highest approve rating at fifty Rasmussen by
Speaker 1: nearly two to one margin. Voters agree that Judge Kavanaugh's
Speaker 1: treatment is a national disgrace. Now we see what the
Speaker 1: Fox News poll, This big blue wave we heard is
Speaker 1: about to crush us in thirty three days. You know,
Speaker 1: they're they're now calling it the Kavanaugh effect, and it's
Speaker 1: impacting Democrats all across the country. Quinnipiac Pola. The Democrats
Speaker 1: generic generic ballot lead per house races cut in half.
Speaker 1: Literally almost a dead heat at this point because you
Speaker 1: have to thank Chuck Schumer and company for rushing to
Speaker 1: judgment and and being willing to bludgeon and character assassinate
Speaker 1: somebody without any evidence of corroboration. You've got a significant
Speaker 1: uptick in GOP interest in all five states surveyed. Missouri
Speaker 1: Senate race is now dead even and for uh an
Speaker 1: incumbent to only have thirty three percent, that means that
Speaker 1: Claire McCaskill at this moment is losing. In North Dakota,
Speaker 1: Heide High Camp is down by eleven. You've got a
Speaker 1: dead heat. In Indiana that wasn't the case. We're gonna
Speaker 1: find out what happens there. And I'd say the same
Speaker 1: thing for Joe Manchion. We'll see where he goes. And
Speaker 1: I think important races in Arizona, Martha McSally, Dean Heller
Speaker 1: in Nevada, Rick Scott in Florida. You know, but all
Speaker 1: these congressional races matter too, because we know what they
Speaker 1: want to do. They want to They want to have
Speaker 1: endless investigations just like this one that'll start if Democrats
Speaker 1: take over the House and Pelosi's the speaker and Maxie
Speaker 1: Waters chairs committees, and Chuck Schumer's the head of the Senate,
Speaker 1: the Senate majority leader. All the progress on your economy,
Speaker 1: say goodbye to all of that. New survey today more
Speaker 1: Americans getting pay raises more than ever before. In a
Speaker 1: stunning turn, the Republican quote base has awakened. Is the
Speaker 1: article the headline, and a Blaze dot com report in
Speaker 1: July of Democrats said that the November elections were very important.
Speaker 1: Only sixtent of Republicans said that, Well, now it's two
Speaker 1: of Democrats saying it's very important and Republicans and now
Speaker 1: at yes, you can thank Democrats for pissing off. What
Speaker 1: is a built in to the core fundamental fairness that
Speaker 1: exists in the American people. It's within the margin of era.
Speaker 1: The Senate race out in Arizona, it is an exact tie.
Speaker 1: Now in Missouri as well, that's a dead heat. And
Speaker 1: if you look at it in Arizona, it's a two
Speaker 1: point race. And this is getting pretty interesting as you
Speaker 1: go through all of these states. It's now a two
Speaker 1: point race. In Indiana, Michael Braun is catching up to
Speaker 1: Joe Donnelly, who's a no Claire mccaskell, and no On Kavanaugh.
Speaker 1: These are people that rushed to judgment in cases like this.
Speaker 1: And we're gonna watch all of these Senate races and
Speaker 1: watch them all very very closely because it's gonna matter.
Speaker 1: North Dakota, forget it. It looks like it's over for
Speaker 1: Heidi high Camp. Kevin Kramer is up fifty three forty
Speaker 1: one today in a new poll that came out. We
Speaker 1: have a poll that came out in Tennessee. Marsha Blackburn
Speaker 1: is now up by five. She was trailing by four.
Speaker 1: That's an important race. Marsha would be a great senator.
Speaker 1: By the way, if you're in Tennessee, she needs your
Speaker 1: support big time. If you look at all these races,
Speaker 1: they're all close, and it's all gonna come out to
Speaker 1: turn out. And it seems Republicans are finally understanding that
Speaker 1: there's no vision, there's no plan or policy that's gonna
Speaker 1: make the lives of the American people better that anyone's proposing.
Speaker 1: Here's an interesting sidebar. I want to play this ad
Speaker 1: from the American Civil Liberties You and you're not spending
Speaker 1: it over a million dollars comparing Brett Kavanaugh again, no
Speaker 1: presumption of innocence to people like Bill Cosby and Clinton. Listen,
Speaker 1: We've seen this before, denials from powerful men. I did
Speaker 1: not have sexual relations for that woman. I've never seen
Speaker 1: anything like this. I categorically and unequivocally to deny the
Speaker 1: allegation against me by Dr f America is watching and
Speaker 1: as we choose a lifetime seat on our highest court,
Speaker 1: integrity matters and we cannot have any doubt. Senator Gardner
Speaker 1: opposed the confirmation of Judge Kevanagh. All right joining us
Speaker 1: now now that ad is being run by the a
Speaker 1: c l U. By the way, Alan Dershowitz lit them
Speaker 1: up the other night on TV. Mike Myers as a
Speaker 1: is a longtime writer in the New York area, and
Speaker 1: believe it or not, I think he's far more conservative
Speaker 1: than he will ever meet. Admit, but he actually was
Speaker 1: on the what were you? You were the vice president?
Speaker 1: Weren't you for a period of time from two thousand
Speaker 1: and five, remember the National Board of Directors the a
Speaker 1: c l U from one to two thousand and five,
Speaker 1: I was also a vice president of the a c
Speaker 1: l U and I was a voting member of the
Speaker 1: executive committee. Yeah, well, I guess you're gonna say the
Speaker 1: real fair people. I am, as you know, I'm a liberal. Damn.
Speaker 1: How do you how do you grade Trump's performance as president?
Speaker 1: I don't Is America better off than it was two
Speaker 1: years ago? And I my organization and the Civil Rights
Speaker 1: coal is is truly non partisan. But that you can
Speaker 1: answer that question do you think that Donald Trump has
Speaker 1: done a good job? Until you want to answer the
Speaker 1: question about what the hell is the a c l
Speaker 1: you doing? Well, you up on the national board from
Speaker 1: one to two thousand and five, tell us what are
Speaker 1: they doing? You supposed to be a nonpartisan organization, and
Speaker 1: it is non partisan except when they're not, and more
Speaker 1: often they are not. The a c l U is
Speaker 1: now become a part of the resistance movement, the leftist
Speaker 1: progressive organizations that have cited on this against Donald Trump,
Speaker 1: and they are not. They used to be on the
Speaker 1: side of the presumpi of inscence. They used to be
Speaker 1: on the side of the accused that the accused of
Speaker 1: been right to contest charges to confront witnesses against him. No,
Speaker 1: now they're not. So the a c l U has
Speaker 1: been hijacked by the left wing crazies luetics. And as
Speaker 1: a member of the a c l U long time,
Speaker 1: since I was a youth, since I was in high school,
Speaker 1: we are embarrassed by the a c LU. So it's
Speaker 1: not just Alan Dershowitz who is calling out the a
Speaker 1: c l U. Some of us have been calling out
Speaker 1: the a c l U now for years because let's
Speaker 1: have changed the organization. You know, I've been in this
Speaker 1: business way too long because I was broadcasting in the
Speaker 1: in the Atlanta area when the Olympic bombing happened, and
Speaker 1: I learned a lesson when everyone else rushed to judgment
Speaker 1: against Richard Jewel. But we've seen it with Duke Lacrosse.
Speaker 1: We've seen it at U v A. We've seen it
Speaker 1: in Ferguson, Missouri, in Baltimore, Maryland, and Cambridge and Trey
Speaker 1: Van and George Zimmerman, and I think there was a
Speaker 1: rush to judgment to never vettle Obama either. But you
Speaker 1: know where we we take our time and we look
Speaker 1: for is there any corroboration? Do you see any corroboration
Speaker 1: and professor forward story too often, the a c l
Speaker 1: U has become knee jerk. They would knee jerk with
Speaker 1: the tray La Martin situation. They immediately so was Obama
Speaker 1: exactly they started with Obama. I'm telling you the a
Speaker 1: c l U is a pause and organization. But here's
Speaker 1: my question. Do you see any corroboration to the stories
Speaker 1: of any of the three main women, not the other
Speaker 1: stories that have already been debunked because like brit Havanaugh
Speaker 1: never went to Rhode Island in his life. Look, I
Speaker 1: think they had. All the so called witnesses have either
Speaker 1: been debunked or contradicted. So I don't understand the a
Speaker 1: c l use opposition to a nominate for the Supreme
Speaker 1: Court when there used to be their policy is to
Speaker 1: not to take a position on What does this tell
Speaker 1: us about the Democratic Party? To all arguing there a
Speaker 1: party that doesn't believe in due process, the Constitution, and
Speaker 1: the presumption of innocence. Apparently they believe in people who
Speaker 1: who don't believe in the things that we used to
Speaker 1: believe in, and we used to believe in freedom of speech,
Speaker 1: we used to believe in presumption of innocence. We used
Speaker 1: to believe in due process of law. We used to
Speaker 1: believe in fairness, fundamental fairness. Now you have to believe
Speaker 1: what they believe, and you have to assume guilt. You
Speaker 1: have to assume guilt about people who are on the
Speaker 1: different side a point of a point of view, on
Speaker 1: a different side of the political issue. Do you see
Speaker 1: the confirmation of Judge Kavanaugh happening in forty eight hours
Speaker 1: or where do you see this going? That is up
Speaker 1: to the United States Senate? And um, I tell you
Speaker 1: that based on what you and I have read and
Speaker 1: based on what we know. UM, I don't understand why
Speaker 1: the vote hasn't been taken already except there is a
Speaker 1: procedural They're just going through Senate procedural stuff. Vote, vote
Speaker 1: for cloture. They're gonna have thirty average of the blocks
Speaker 1: that this Democrats keep putting up because it's it's not enough.
Speaker 1: Now they have they want the FBI investigation. In my day,
Speaker 1: the liberals didn't believe in the FBI. They thought the
Speaker 1: FBI was corrupt. They what the FBI was in terms
Speaker 1: of coin to most guys in the FBI. Let me
Speaker 1: just tell you, most people in the FBI, the CIA,
Speaker 1: intelligence community. These are heroes that keep us safe, even
Speaker 1: though there was a few that we know abuse power
Speaker 1: at a spectacular level. But all right, Mike Meyers, thank
Speaker 1: you power too. Don't forget that. That's when do not disagree.
Speaker 1: I'm not disagreeing at all, concerned about the FBI, but
Speaker 1: now along the FBI is on this side. If the
Speaker 1: FBI sides with the other side, no, they just got
Speaker 1: to follow the law instead, stop being political and stop
Speaker 1: you be using the powerful weaponry of intelligence to go
Speaker 1: after the American people. That is, to me, is you know,
Speaker 1: very civil libertarian of anybody. All right, Mike Myers, thank you.
Speaker 1: What I've been dealing with since July tenth, the downhill
Speaker 1: slope that Schumer has put us on, is really dealing
Speaker 1: with the demolition derby and we're they just about destroyed
Speaker 1: a good person to be on the stream court soul.
Speaker 1: Hopefully we're forty eight hours away from having a new
Speaker 1: person on the Spring Court. Senator Truck Grassley, the Chairman
Speaker 1: of the Senate Judiciary Committee, glad you're with us. Our
Speaker 1: to Sean Hannity show right down our toll free number.
Speaker 1: It's eight nine for one. Shawn, if you want to
Speaker 1: be a part of the program. As now, they have
Speaker 1: moved ahead last night during Hannity the TV Show with
Speaker 1: cloture and we should have a final vote up or
Speaker 1: down confirmation of Judge Brett Kavanaugh. And after the FBI
Speaker 1: report came back and basically just confirmed what the Senate
Speaker 1: investigation proof, which is of course that there is no evidence,
Speaker 1: no corroboration to any of the allegations against Judge Kavanaugh.
Speaker 1: Here to go through what has been a horrible seventeen
Speaker 1: days for him and his family. I don't know if
Speaker 1: he ever gets his good name back in the end.
Speaker 1: I don't think people will ever forget what he has
Speaker 1: gone through and the allegations that have been made against him,
Speaker 1: his former Speaker of the House, New Gingrich. And this
Speaker 1: of course all with the backdrop thirty three days from
Speaker 1: now the most important mid term in election in our lifetime.
Speaker 1: Mr Speaker, Thank you for being with us. The FBI
Speaker 1: report is back now. The Democrats want more FBI investigations.
Speaker 1: Nothing seemingly will ever satisfy them. I thought, first of all,
Speaker 1: its great that you rashly on the air. I think
Speaker 1: he and Lindsey Graham with the two Republicans who did
Speaker 1: the best job of getting us where we are now.
Speaker 1: I get the impression you you may have more information
Speaker 1: than I do, but I get the impression from what
Speaker 1: Senator Flake said earlier today that he is now believes
Speaker 1: that there's nothing there, that the FBI found, nothing to corroberate.
Speaker 1: And so I'm optimistic that we're gonna get all three Republicans,
Speaker 1: which should be a terrific moment. And what guarantee, of course,
Speaker 1: the confirmation of a new Supreme Court justice, and what
Speaker 1: I think is a great victory for the American system
Speaker 1: in the American sense of fairness. I just think to
Speaker 1: have Judge Kavanaugh validated, to have him sworn in, to
Speaker 1: have his family be able to realize that he is
Speaker 1: now a Supreme Court justice, would be such an act
Speaker 1: of decency after all of the viciousness that I'm really
Speaker 1: looking forward to it. The results are now in im polling,
Speaker 1: and we're seeing it in the Fox News poll that
Speaker 1: now shows that Heidi hi Camp, who was a no
Speaker 1: on Judge Kavanaugh in North Dakota, sheat down by eleven.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be interesting to watch what Joe Manchin does.
Speaker 1: Donnelly in Indiana is a no, we know. Claire mccaskell
Speaker 1: is a no. We uh have a battle going out.
Speaker 1: Martha McSally, I think is a great Senate candidate for Arizona,
Speaker 1: served her country with incredible honor and distinction. And in
Speaker 1: Dean Hella and Nevada, and Rick Scott in Florida. But
Speaker 1: these numbers today are interesting, as President Trump's approval rating
Speaker 1: is now matched as all time high at and more importantly,
Speaker 1: we've got a raspuestion poll that says, well, the latest
Speaker 1: survey fifty of likely voters agree with Judge Kavanaugh's statement
Speaker 1: to the Senate Judiciary Committee Friday of last week that
Speaker 1: his confirmation hearings had become a quote national disgrace. Well,
Speaker 1: then it raises questions about what impact this might have
Speaker 1: on the mid term elections in thirty three days, because
Speaker 1: mid term election polling is getting more definitive. The enthusiasm
Speaker 1: gappeds has closed almost to a dead even halt, and
Speaker 1: you see Republicans and important Senate races now and dead
Speaker 1: heats in all of these states that red states where
Speaker 1: we're Democrats, where Trump is won by fairly big margins.
Speaker 1: I'm look, I'm gonna go stage further. I think when
Speaker 1: we see that moment when Judge Kavanaugh becomes Justice Kavanaugh,
Speaker 1: and we see that first time when he is sitting
Speaker 1: in the Supreme Court, I think a large part of
Speaker 1: the left he's just going to collapse in morale. They
Speaker 1: have done everything they could. They went all out, They lied,
Speaker 1: they smeared, they did everything you can imagine, and they lost.
Speaker 1: And I think that the morale effect on the left
Speaker 1: is going to be substantial. A Chuck humorous strategy failed,
Speaker 1: and the fact is that he in the process, he
Speaker 1: may well have crippled his party for a generation. Uh.
Speaker 1: A good friend of mine called today and said, you know,
Speaker 1: there's one team out there trying to build things. They're
Speaker 1: called Republicans, and there's one team out there trying to
Speaker 1: destroy things. They're called Democrats. And he said to me,
Speaker 1: I just don't think people Americans are going to vote
Speaker 1: for the destroyers. And I thought that was a pretty
Speaker 1: good way to capture what we have been living through.
Speaker 1: I have often said, and we've been friends going back
Speaker 1: since maybe even a little before that, and I have
Speaker 1: often said, you can predict this with certainty every two
Speaker 1: and four years, that identity politics. You know, it's rich
Speaker 1: versus poor, old versus young, black versus white. Whatever divisive
Speaker 1: nature of politics they can bring up comes up every
Speaker 1: election year. But they have now sunk to a new low.
Speaker 1: You know, I knew this was not going to be
Speaker 1: a difficult job for the FBI. In the case of
Speaker 1: Professor Ford. There was no place, there was no time,
Speaker 1: there was no location, there's no place for the FBI
Speaker 1: to visit to to look for anything forensically that might exist.
Speaker 1: And the only four people that they could really talk
Speaker 1: to are the four people. Professor Ford mentioned that she
Speaker 1: remembered being at this this so called party when the
Speaker 1: alleged event happened, and she identified one person that was
Speaker 1: supposed to be a eyewitness to the assault, and the
Speaker 1: eyewitness said that did not happen, and the other people
Speaker 1: do not remember any such party as this. And then
Speaker 1: the question is do we believe in the presumption of
Speaker 1: innocence or we just gonna jump the gun and say
Speaker 1: guilt by association. Corey Booker said something spectacular yesterday and
Speaker 1: he goes, well, if there's enough allegations out there, I mean,
Speaker 1: you just you gotta kind of believe it. And they're
Speaker 1: not qualified based on allegations. Well, look, let's be clear,
Speaker 1: Corey Booker sadly somebody who I used to think at
Speaker 1: a real future as a reformer. It's just sort of decayed.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know whether it's because he wants
Speaker 1: to run for president or what, but he's just kind
Speaker 1: of decayed into almost making a mockery of himself. Me.
Speaker 1: He talks about having a Sparticus moment, which is a
Speaker 1: sign of such stunning historical ignorance. As a history teacher,
Speaker 1: I found it painful. Um, he makes comments like that.
Speaker 1: I mean, he of all people should know that if
Speaker 1: allegations destroy you, uh, then the whole process of the
Speaker 1: rule of law collapsed, is over totally. And it's sad
Speaker 1: to watch something like that. You know, I think could
Speaker 1: have been a positive, constructive force and is now frankly
Speaker 1: becoming almost a caricature of himself. There's certainly a lot
Speaker 1: at stake in in the next thirty three days. And
Speaker 1: you know, there's other good economic news that have come
Speaker 1: out today. I mean, on top of record low unemployment
Speaker 1: in fourteen states, African Americans, Hispanic Americans, Asian Americans, women
Speaker 1: in the workforce, uh, youth unemployment fifty some odd year low. Uh,
Speaker 1: we have consumer confidence all time high, four million new
Speaker 1: jobs created, four million fewer people on on food stamps.
Speaker 1: You see what the President's accomplished with NAFTA, the new NAFTA,
Speaker 1: the new trade agreement with Mexico and with Canada. You
Speaker 1: see that he has eliminated burdensome regulation. We can now
Speaker 1: drill an an war in the forty eight states. Uh.
Speaker 1: He is literally single handedly saved coal mining in America.
Speaker 1: And of course natural gas production will now be at
Speaker 1: an all time high. And we have a Wall Street
Speaker 1: Journal piece today showing more Americans getting pay raises than
Speaker 1: ever before. That's the forgotten men and women that mattered
Speaker 1: in the question is will they all go out and
Speaker 1: vote to protect the progress that has been made in
Speaker 1: the last two years, even maybe if they don't particularly
Speaker 1: like their individual Republican congressmen, or maybe think they're weak,
Speaker 1: or maybe don't even know who their name is. Well,
Speaker 1: you just put your finger on the key question of
Speaker 1: this election. As you know, I've been involved in many,
Speaker 1: many campaigns, actually going all the way back to nine
Speaker 1: and one of the one of the lessons I learned
Speaker 1: was I don't care about the polls. Show me the precincts.
Speaker 1: I want to see the first real votes. I want
Speaker 1: to see who cares enough to show up and vote,
Speaker 1: because that changes everything. As you know, we just won
Speaker 1: a uh Hispanic district in a special election for the
Speaker 1: state Senate in Texas right down along the border. And
Speaker 1: this we had a candidate who got lost by twenty
Speaker 1: points four years ago, came back in the special and
Speaker 1: one um and is the first Hispanic Republican state senator
Speaker 1: in Texas. And that's because people were energized enough to
Speaker 1: turn out. So I would say to everybody in our audience,
Speaker 1: but this is going to come down to isn't polling,
Speaker 1: It isn't a conversation at the coffee shop. Who cares
Speaker 1: enough to get an absentee ballot? Who cares enough to
Speaker 1: show up and vote? And if our side does show
Speaker 1: up in vote, I think this could be one of
Speaker 1: the most historic elections that you and I have ever covered.
Speaker 1: We've been together for lots of elections. I have a
Speaker 1: hunch this one could turn into something that we would
Speaker 1: the rest of well behind the scenes. I got to
Speaker 1: give you a lot of credit because I remember speaking
Speaker 1: with you. You probably forget it. The day before you
Speaker 1: became Speaker of the House, and I remember talking to
Speaker 1: you that day and the day of the election, and
Speaker 1: and you were surrounded by a group of people and
Speaker 1: Joe gay Lord, and you actually shared with me the
Speaker 1: information you had and you said it was absolutely true
Speaker 1: that for the first time in forty years, Republicans would
Speaker 1: take over the House. I think you and I were
Speaker 1: two of the few people willing to go out on
Speaker 1: a limb and said, yeah, Donald Trump has a real
Speaker 1: shot of winning this election. And and people laughed at
Speaker 1: us at the time, and I believed it then and
Speaker 1: and we proved out to be right. We also, the
Speaker 1: both of us predicted Obama would be an abysmal failure
Speaker 1: as president based on a very rigid ideology that he
Speaker 1: seemed to be indoctrinated into. And I agree with you.
Speaker 1: I think there's an opportunity here to shock the world again.
Speaker 1: And the for the people listening to this audience, they're
Speaker 1: gonna tune in thirty three nights from now watching election
Speaker 1: results come in, and they're either gonna see giddy happy
Speaker 1: liberal newscasters announcing Nancy Pelosi as Speaker and Chuck Schumer's
Speaker 1: the Senate majority leader and Maxims will be the chairman
Speaker 1: of this committee or that committee, and that the impeachment
Speaker 1: of Trump will go forward, taxes will go up, open
Speaker 1: borders will remain, and Obamacare stays. All this or they're
Speaker 1: going to shock the world and all these people are
Speaker 1: gonna do what they did in and be in the
Speaker 1: shock of their life. Well, that's right. Let's look. I mean,
Speaker 1: I think what I would say to everybody who's listening
Speaker 1: to us, everybody who cares with the country's future, make
Speaker 1: sure you vote. Make sure your friends vote. Make sure
Speaker 1: everybody you know who favors a solid, productive, work oriented,
Speaker 1: results oriented system, make sure they go out and vote.
Speaker 1: If that happens, I'm not quite ready yet to predict,
Speaker 1: but I'm wanting to tell you that because of the
Speaker 1: intensity of anger about the way the Liberals smeared Kavanaugh,
Speaker 1: the characterization, the dishonesty, I believe we have seen, and
Speaker 1: I've been looking at data for three days, I believe
Speaker 1: that we have seen a substantial shift towards the Republicans.
Speaker 1: I think that the we're almost certainly now going to
Speaker 1: keep the Senate and probably going to increase our the
Speaker 1: total number of senators by a significant margins camp in
Speaker 1: North Dakota, who's down eleven is a no on Kavanaugh
Speaker 1: to me, put a fork in that race. That's over. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well again, I think Cranmer, who was a great, great
Speaker 1: guy and I've known for twenty four years, he's got
Speaker 1: to get out there and keep campaigning. But I mean,
Speaker 1: one of the one of the lessons is, you know,
Speaker 1: I had very close races, include a couple of recounts,
Speaker 1: and I had very big races. My experience is, and
Speaker 1: I said this to every candidate, do not quit till
Speaker 1: the polls closed, and do not relax until the recount
Speaker 1: is over. Uh, this is a business where big things
Speaker 1: can happen very fast. The American people are in charge,
Speaker 1: not Bloomberg's hundred million dollars, not sources millions, not any
Speaker 1: of those left wingers. In the end, the genius of
Speaker 1: America is that the American people are in charge. And
Speaker 1: I believe that they're gonna send a big signal to
Speaker 1: the left winners that they really don't like. They don't
Speaker 1: want to live in a country where you smear, lie,
Speaker 1: assassinate character and believe that you can get away with it.
Speaker 1: I even think it's where I think they like to
Speaker 1: bludge in people with absolutely zero consideration of the impact
Speaker 1: that has on them, families with a with a total
Speaker 1: disregard for any truth or corroboration. Now, I will say this,
Speaker 1: if we allow this to get rewarded and they get
Speaker 1: power as a result of this, or look when we're
Speaker 1: not gonna know till Saturday, if in fact Judge Kavanaugh
Speaker 1: is confirmed, and you know, I hope Susan Collins and
Speaker 1: Lisa Murkowski are satisfied. I know Susan Collins says she
Speaker 1: was satisfied with the FBI report, and Jeff Flake said
Speaker 1: the same thing. I don't know where Lisa Murkowski is.
Speaker 1: She has not spoken publicly as of now. But I
Speaker 1: hope we don't reward this behavior because if we do,
Speaker 1: to me, it becomes a tipping point in the country
Speaker 1: where you're just gonna get more of this, and anybody
Speaker 1: that the Democrats don't like is is going to be
Speaker 1: subject to guilt by accusation and this type of smearing
Speaker 1: and slandering that goes on. I'd also like to see
Speaker 1: a change in the standard in the law if you're
Speaker 1: a public figure, well, you have to show them this
Speaker 1: the absence of malice. How do you prove an absence
Speaker 1: of malice? It's a ridiculous standard that nobody could ever reach,
Speaker 1: which is why people are you and me. Whatever people
Speaker 1: say about us, we get stuck taking it. Sure. Look, look,
Speaker 1: let me just say I think that overwhelmingly the American
Speaker 1: people do not want to reward that kind of behavior.
Speaker 1: And I think you've seen it now in the kind
Speaker 1: of surveys we're seeing now are amazing. People have moved
Speaker 1: very significantly in the last week. And it's in reaction
Speaker 1: to how despicable and how vicious and how personal the
Speaker 1: Democrats have in and they brought this on themselves, and
Speaker 1: I think that they're now going to reap the whirlwind.
Speaker 1: All right, Mr Speaker, thanks for being Willis. Thirty three
Speaker 1: days to election day. Appreciate your time. Eight nine for
Speaker 1: one sean are toll free telephone number. Dr Sebastian Gorka,
Speaker 1: Monika Crowley coming up next later on. We'll get a
Speaker 1: lot of your calls in in the final half hour
Speaker 1: of the program eight nine for one, Shawn, if you
Speaker 1: want to join us Hannity tonight, we got a big
Speaker 1: show nine Eastern News. You won't get anywhere else forty
Speaker 1: eight hours away, and the Senate will decide the fate
Speaker 1: of Judge Kavanaugh, and maybe you want to contact them,
Speaker 1: your senators straight ahead. I can say is that the
Speaker 1: most notable part of this report is what's not in it.
Speaker 1: As we noted by the White House, the FBI did
Speaker 1: not interview Bret Kavanaugh, nor did the FBI interview Dr
Speaker 1: Blazie Ford. What we've heard from numerous people over the
Speaker 1: last few days seeking to provide information to the f B.
Speaker 1: I we have seen even more press reports of witnesses
Speaker 1: who wanted to speak with the FBI, but we're not interviewed.
Speaker 1: We had many fears that this was a very limited
Speaker 1: process that would constrain the FBI from getting all the facts.
Speaker 1: Having received the thorough briefing on the documents, those fears
Speaker 1: have been realized. Second, I disagree, having received this a
Speaker 1: briefing on all of the documents, I disagree with Senator
Speaker 1: grassly statement that there was no hint of misconduct. And third,
Speaker 1: we are reiterating our call, given how limited this these
Speaker 1: documents were and how limited the scope of this investigation was,
Speaker 1: we are reiterating our call that the documents with proper
Speaker 1: redaction be made public. Why shouldn't all of America see
Speaker 1: the facts. There's never been a nominee that has answered
Speaker 1: more questions, that has spent more time before the Senate
Speaker 1: Judiciary Committee, that has been more cooperative to the Senate
Speaker 1: Judiciary Committee. And by the way, including the last five
Speaker 1: Supreme Court nominees combined in terms of documents handed over
Speaker 1: to the differing committees, seven separate FBI investigations. Remember last week, well,
Speaker 1: we'll just have limited in scope and we'll do it
Speaker 1: in a week and we'll trust the FBI. And now
Speaker 1: they didn't get back what they wanted. The problem that
Speaker 1: their problem is much bigger. They're never gonna get to
Speaker 1: the answer that they're so hoping for in the three
Speaker 1: cases that they have been using to smear, slander and
Speaker 1: bludgeon Judge Kavanaugh and his family. You know, with Professor Ford,
Speaker 1: she has mentioned for people, none of them remember the party,
Speaker 1: and the eyewitness she placed in the room at the
Speaker 1: time of the alleged attack said it did not ever happen. Ever,
Speaker 1: in the case of Ms. Ramirez, the New York Times
Speaker 1: even said they called dozens and dozens of people and
Speaker 1: they weren't able to get one corroborating witness, not one,
Speaker 1: And the New York Times hates Donald Trump would have
Speaker 1: loved to come out with the smoking gun article that
Speaker 1: destroyed Judge Kavanaugh. And they even pointed out something that
Speaker 1: should concern everybody that Ms Ramirez was calling her former
Speaker 1: Yale classmates saying, well, I don't remember, I'm not sure.
Speaker 1: Do you think it might be Judge Kavanaugh that, And
Speaker 1: of course then gaps in her memory and being inebriated early.
Speaker 1: And I don't even want to get into the whole
Speaker 1: issue of Julie sweat Nick and you know she goes
Speaker 1: on nbc knews. Why this ever got reported is beyond
Speaker 1: any understanding that I have, changing her story, backtracking from
Speaker 1: a story in a multitude of ways, mentioning that there
Speaker 1: are four eye witnesses in her case, well, one's dead
Speaker 1: and the number two person has no idea who she is,
Speaker 1: no idea at all. And the allegation that on almost
Speaker 1: on a weekend basis that young boys were drugging young
Speaker 1: women and lining up in halls and then raping gang
Speaker 1: raping these young women, and then that evolved into well, um, well, Brett,
Speaker 1: havn't I saw him near the punch bowl, so he
Speaker 1: probably was one of them, and he gave out red
Speaker 1: solo cups. I saw him give out red solo cups.
Speaker 1: Well it wasn't lined up in the hall, but he
Speaker 1: was in the hall. I saw him in a hall,
Speaker 1: and nobody else can corroborate it. They were never getting
Speaker 1: the answer that they wanted because they've all known it's
Speaker 1: a smear, So now they're just smear. The FBI invest
Speaker 1: the gators in this case that did what they were
Speaker 1: supposed to do. There never was going to be a
Speaker 1: recommendation or a conclusion made by the FBI. We learned
Speaker 1: that from Joe biden In. But that wasn't the purpose
Speaker 1: of any of this. Their hope, their dream, their prayer
Speaker 1: was that the FBI would find the smoking gun that
Speaker 1: didn't exist based on the accusers own words and eat
Speaker 1: specific case. Anyway, joining us now, glad you're with us,
Speaker 1: by the way, one Sean Dr. Sebastian gorka former advisor
Speaker 1: to President Trump, author of the soon to be released
Speaker 1: book Why We Fight. Monica Crowley is a contributing editor
Speaker 1: to Spectator US, a senior fellow at the London Center
Speaker 1: for Policy Research and welcome both of you back to
Speaker 1: the program. Monica, we begin with you. I'm listening. The
Speaker 1: Democrats didn't get what they want, but it never was coming,
Speaker 1: was it? Because it never would be enough for them? Sean,
Speaker 1: there is one reality that none of us should lose
Speaker 1: sight of, and that is that the left is at war.
Speaker 1: They're at war for the future of the country. They're
Speaker 1: at war against the Constitution, there at war against free
Speaker 1: market economics. They're at war against individual liberty. In other words,
Speaker 1: they're at war with everything that Judge Kavanaugh stands for
Speaker 1: and will fight for on the Supreme Court. Therefore, not
Speaker 1: only must he be blocked, he must be destroyed because
Speaker 1: if he's allowed to assent to the highest court, well,
Speaker 1: that means that the left is no longer going to
Speaker 1: be able to use the highest court in the land
Speaker 1: to slam through their agenda, because lord knows, they can't
Speaker 1: necessarily get it to the ballot box. So for decades
Speaker 1: they've been run lying on the judiciary in order to
Speaker 1: affect their left wing agenda. And they know with Kavanaugh
Speaker 1: on the bench, it's essentially over for them and they're
Speaker 1: going to have to change tactics. That's why they have
Speaker 1: changed tactics. This is the only playbook that in all
Speaker 1: my years of now thirty is in radio now having
Speaker 1: begun my you know, well, in two days I'll begin
Speaker 1: my twenty third straight year at Fox since the day
Speaker 1: they launched the channel, and I'm one of the remaining
Speaker 1: original foxter's. I mean, I gotta tell you things have
Speaker 1: not changed. And that's the point, Dr Gorka, is that
Speaker 1: they don't change their tactics. They don't seem to have
Speaker 1: any concern at all for the fact that there's no
Speaker 1: corroborating evidence in any of the cases that they have
Speaker 1: brought up. Now they're sending out or at least deborcats
Speaker 1: as friends, are sending out these phishing emails say if
Speaker 1: you know something, please we need your help. Hurry up,
Speaker 1: please write us now, tell us you're absolutely right, Sean.
Speaker 1: I wrote a piece to day in the hill um
Speaker 1: which is a kind of summary of my my book
Speaker 1: Why We Fight. If you're surprised at what Kavanaugh has
Speaker 1: been put through, this trial, bio deal, this this calumny,
Speaker 1: you shouldn't be then you have no historic perspective. The
Speaker 1: Democrats have been doing this for a century. Now, go
Speaker 1: back to ninety eight and the case of Whittaker Chambers.
Speaker 1: His was the first ever televised, live televised testimony before Congress.
Speaker 1: And what happened there. This is a man who was
Speaker 1: a former Communist, who knew where the Communists were inside
Speaker 1: the US government, including al Jah. His been loved by
Speaker 1: the Democrat Party's Senior State Department, a former officials, and
Speaker 1: he told the Congress, this guy is a Soviet agent.
Speaker 1: I was the person carrying secret messages from Moscow to
Speaker 1: al Jah. Al Jahi denied it, but because he was
Speaker 1: a darling of the left, they took Whittaker Chambers and
Speaker 1: they accused him of everything you can imagine. They accused
Speaker 1: him of not only being unfaithful to his wife, they
Speaker 1: accused him in the death of his brother. None of
Speaker 1: the accusations were true. And long after Whittaker Chambers died,
Speaker 1: when the no UH communications with the classified, we had
Speaker 1: the proof that al Jahi was a Soviet spy. So
Speaker 1: Sean they've been doing this since at least the Second
Speaker 1: World War, and and Monica is absolutely right. They're doing
Speaker 1: this because they are at war with the will of
Speaker 1: the American people. We told we chose Donald Trump. Donald
Speaker 1: Trump chose Judge Cavanaugh, and that is why Judge Cavanaugh
Speaker 1: must be destroyed. So what are these three Republican senators do?
Speaker 1: Uh Collins and Murkowski and of course Jeff Flake, and
Speaker 1: then what is Joe Manchin and Tide high Camp who's
Speaker 1: down by eleven in North Dakota do Monica? Well, I
Speaker 1: think based on some of the comments we've heard today, Sean,
Speaker 1: from Senator Collins in particular, it looks like they're pretty
Speaker 1: satisfied with the FBI investigation um, and it looks like
Speaker 1: they could be yes, his flake, who knows she's a Flake,
Speaker 1: so who knows what he is going to do? But
Speaker 1: I suspect we might pick up some red state Democrats
Speaker 1: like Joe Manson Heidi hide Camp who is now down
Speaker 1: ten points in her race and in North Dakota, and
Speaker 1: if they really want to stand for the Constitution and
Speaker 1: what's right and human decency, they will vote to Well,
Speaker 1: I'll be honest if they if they vote for Kavanaugh's
Speaker 1: probably going to be an election year conversion, and only
Speaker 1: after they see that the Republicans have the votes to
Speaker 1: confirm him. You know, Sean, if I could just jump
Speaker 1: in said just delineated this this brilliant summary of the
Speaker 1: outer his case. Do you know what Republican congressmen exposed
Speaker 1: hits as a Soviet spy? It was Richard Nixon. I
Speaker 1: wrote at piece today in Spectator USA because I went
Speaker 1: back and looked at my notes of my conversations with
Speaker 1: Nixon during the Clarence Thomas hearings, and my calum is
Speaker 1: all about nixing the way. For those that don't know,
Speaker 1: I mean, how many years did you work with and
Speaker 1: for former President Nixon? Four years from until was death
Speaker 1: and ninety four Sean, and I was there in one
Speaker 1: during the Clarence Thomas hearings with Nixon. And my column
Speaker 1: today Institute or USA right about how Republicans today should
Speaker 1: have foreseen this assault on Kavanaugh, because Nixon certainly did
Speaker 1: twenty seven years ago. You know, they they there there
Speaker 1: assault on anything that anybody that's could indecent, but certainly
Speaker 1: anybody who believes in the principles that we believe in
Speaker 1: that made this country great. If they stand in the
Speaker 1: way of the left, the left will destroy them and
Speaker 1: take them out. Clarence Thomas, Fred Kavanaugh. It doesn't matter
Speaker 1: for them. It's not personal. It's all about power, even
Speaker 1: if you destroy a man his reputation that he built
Speaker 1: up after four decades, his family, his wife, his children,
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Um, you know that's sad. All right, quick break,
Speaker 1: We'll come back more with Dr Gorka and Monica Crowley
Speaker 1: on the other side. But as we continue with Dr
Speaker 1: Sebastian Gorka and Monica Crowley, if this is now a
Speaker 1: party of slanders, smear bludgeoning, character assassination, and they really
Speaker 1: don't have a vision for the country in thirty three
Speaker 1: days except that they hate Trump. They want to investigate
Speaker 1: Trump Dr Gorka, and they they want to keep Obamacare,
Speaker 1: and they want to raise taxes. They didn't like the
Speaker 1: tax cut. They want their crumbs back, and they want
Speaker 1: to eliminate Ice, and they want to open borders. Why
Speaker 1: do I read in these polls that there's either going
Speaker 1: to be a blue wave where things are now finally
Speaker 1: tightening and Republicans have a chance to maintain power, which
Speaker 1: I would hope would be the best case scenario. Oh,
Speaker 1: they have a vision shot of all the Democrats that
Speaker 1: are running for office this November, forty of them four
Speaker 1: zero are running as a vowed socialists. It's incredible after
Speaker 1: a hundred million people killed, more enslaved, more tortured. They
Speaker 1: want to literally turn America into Venezuela. That's how you
Speaker 1: get people like Cortez whinning primaries in New York. So
Speaker 1: Barack Obama just just endorsed Cortes. Yes, yes, he endorsed
Speaker 1: them in his list, and forty of those people will
Speaker 1: call themselves socialists. But but there's a very simple message
Speaker 1: to all your listeners, to all Americans out there. Look
Speaker 1: at Brett Kavanaugh's record for every year he's been alive.
Speaker 1: Were the fifty years spotless? Clean record? In fact, he's
Speaker 1: not just his record was clean until seventeen days ago,
Speaker 1: spotless till seventeen days ago. And if the conclusions are
Speaker 1: very simple one. If they can't do this to this man,
Speaker 1: they can do it to anybody, including to the listeners
Speaker 1: of your show. If you get in the way of
Speaker 1: the Democrat Party, they will try to destroy you and
Speaker 1: your family and your reputation is nobody. We all three
Speaker 1: of us, all of us have been through these phony
Speaker 1: smears and attacks. I've been through it. Dr Gorga, You've
Speaker 1: been through it. Monica, You've been through and I remember
Speaker 1: calling Monica so I don't even remember what they were
Speaker 1: attacking you about, to be honest, and I remember saying, uh, well,
Speaker 1: welcome to the club. It's par for the course. Hang
Speaker 1: in there. And when you're in the middle of it,
Speaker 1: it's not that much fun. And a lot of people
Speaker 1: are making phone calls to you. No, And that's exactly right, Sean.
Speaker 1: And look, if you're a conservative, you're a target. But
Speaker 1: if you're a pro Trump conservative, now you've got about
Speaker 1: a hundred targets on you. Anybody who stands up for
Speaker 1: this president, what he's doing, his agenda, anybody who is
Speaker 1: associated with him, nominated by him, as supportive of him,
Speaker 1: you are a target. And the President himself is a
Speaker 1: great prole model because he's the strongest political leader I
Speaker 1: have ever seen. And uh and Judge Kavanaugh, God bless
Speaker 1: him because he's worthstanding more than any human being could stand.
Speaker 1: By the way Heidi hi Camp looks like she's a no.
Speaker 1: And if she's a no, she's down eleven now she'll
Speaker 1: go down twenty by the time this is over all, right,
Speaker 1: Thank you both of a being with us, Monica Crowley
Speaker 1: and Dr Gorka, We always appreciate your time. Thanks for
Speaker 1: sharing eight one Sean is our toll free telephone number.
Speaker 1: We'll have more news, round up information overload hour. We're
Speaker 1: gonna spend a lot of time in the next hour
Speaker 1: taking a lot of your calls. I know many of
Speaker 1: you have been wanting to voice your opinion on this
Speaker 1: eight hundred nine for one Seawn, if you want to
Speaker 1: be a part of the program. I discovered that it
Speaker 1: didn't make any difference. What have you smoked reefer in
Speaker 1: the white classmates sparkling new van or in the dorm
Speaker 1: room with some brother you've met down at the gym.
Speaker 1: I inhaled and tried drugs enthusiastically. All right, there you
Speaker 1: have a wire ward Democrats so upset about Obama us wasted.
Speaker 1: Of course I had held I was a member of
Speaker 1: the chumb gang, as he said, did an enthusiastically a
Speaker 1: little blow, little swede. I always spoke that drank way
Speaker 1: too much alcohol. Oh but if Judge Kavanaugh does it,
Speaker 1: it doesn't you know, then it matters not what with
Speaker 1: Barack Obama? And this is the problem. The Democrats have
Speaker 1: the double standard. Simultaneously as all of this has been
Speaker 1: going on the last seventeen days. And by the way,
Speaker 1: welcome to the news round up, information overload, our Sean
Speaker 1: Hannity Show is all this has been going on. Keith
Speaker 1: Ellison has been out there, the number two guy at
Speaker 1: the d n C, and is being accused by his
Speaker 1: former girlfriend of repeated physical and emotional abuse by him.
Speaker 1: And there are text messages as evidence, there's doctors reports
Speaker 1: as evidence, and a tape that is evidence. And of
Speaker 1: course Democrats don't utter a word about their number two,
Speaker 1: not one word, and so many of the very same
Speaker 1: people they're acting and feigning moral outrage and indignation as
Speaker 1: it relates to Judge Kavanaugh, when there's not a single
Speaker 1: corroborating witness in any of these allegations. Just the opposite.
Speaker 1: They're feigning all their outrage, but they're not asking or
Speaker 1: demanding for an FBI investigation in the Keith Ellison or
Speaker 1: an FBI investigation into the rape allegations of Bill Clinton,
Speaker 1: or the groping and grabbing and touching and fondling and
Speaker 1: kissing of a woman against his will against her will
Speaker 1: in the Oval office, or him exposing himself to Paula
Speaker 1: Jones the way he didn't. No, no call for FBI
Speaker 1: investigations to their beloved Clinton. And when Diane Feinstein went
Speaker 1: out and was, you know, interviewing Judge Kavanaugh, not telling
Speaker 1: him a word about what it is she knew as
Speaker 1: she was trying to help Professor ford Higher, a radical
Speaker 1: left wing attorney who attacked Paula Jones. Well, it's only
Speaker 1: ten or twelve minutes. Ten or twelve minutes he dropped
Speaker 1: his pants and said, kiss it. Really, that's not a
Speaker 1: problem for Deborah cats Her defending Al Franken. Anyway, We're
Speaker 1: seeing the political fallout of all of this now is
Speaker 1: Kavanaugh is now the President's approval rating is an all
Speaker 1: time high at fifty today, and the President laying out
Speaker 1: the facts in this particular case, we went on election
Speaker 1: in thirty three days, and every poll is now showing
Speaker 1: that the Senate races and the enthusiasm gap is tightened
Speaker 1: dramatically and significantly. Which is the right thing. Why, Because
Speaker 1: I think the American people are learning a lot that
Speaker 1: this is the Democratic Party playbook. Is a party that
Speaker 1: doesn't believe in due process or presumption of innocence. There's
Speaker 1: a party that regularly smears slanders, uses character assassination, character bludgeoning,
Speaker 1: all in the process to gain their own power. There's
Speaker 1: not one agenda item that you can cite any Democrat
Speaker 1: that they're running on in thirty three days that's gonna
Speaker 1: make the country a better place. They don't seem to
Speaker 1: care at all at what they have done with Judge Kavanaugh.
Speaker 1: Or when you look at the evidence and you look
Speaker 1: at the facts, as the FBI did, now they're attacking
Speaker 1: the FBI, what do you find out is that there's
Speaker 1: zero corroboration to the claims of all three women. And
Speaker 1: I'm not even including the cases of outright lying that
Speaker 1: were dismissed early on about Judge Kavanaugh. They just dismiss
Speaker 1: it all together. But none of this would ever make
Speaker 1: it into any court of law, and there might actually
Speaker 1: end up being significant legal consequences to Julie sweat Nick
Speaker 1: and some other people based on what Alan dersh what's
Speaker 1: another saying, should happen because of the things that they said,
Speaker 1: the backtracking that took place, and perhaps even lying under
Speaker 1: the threat of a felony. Anyway, News round Up Information
Speaker 1: Overload our Jonathan Gillham, author of Sheep No More. Danielle
Speaker 1: McLaughlan is with us UM. I don't know if this
Speaker 1: is going to impact the election in thirty three days.
Speaker 1: But I think it certainly has energized every every part
Speaker 1: of the Republican coalition that recognizes this for the grave
Speaker 1: injustice that has benned in the smear campaign that has
Speaker 1: been Jonathan Well, I agree, you know. I think this
Speaker 1: has definitely caused, um, some good reactions in conservatives across
Speaker 1: this nation. Um also uh freethinking people who used to
Speaker 1: subscribe to the Democrats, the Democrats way of thinking, are
Speaker 1: now saying this is this isn't really politics, this is
Speaker 1: um kind of criminal behavior. The way a lot of
Speaker 1: this stuff is playing out in Washington, d C. Right now,
Speaker 1: whether it be the toxing that we've seen, um, whether
Speaker 1: it be uh just the sheer way that the FBI
Speaker 1: has been used. And I think what's happening is it's
Speaker 1: solidifying people that they don't want to play this game,
Speaker 1: and people are starting to get on the same bandwagon.
Speaker 1: I do think it's going to have a huge outcome
Speaker 1: in the election. I think that people are gonna say
Speaker 1: they're tired of this nonsense. It's on the left. Um,
Speaker 1: they may not agree with everything on the right, but
Speaker 1: I think it's going to cause a backlash are you
Speaker 1: going to defend your beloved Liberal Democratic Socialist Party, Danielle.
Speaker 1: That's why I'm here to do sean. Um, good afternoon, everybody.
Speaker 1: It's so good to be here. I honestly, I want
Speaker 1: to tell you that there's going to be a big
Speaker 1: backlash on the list as well. You know, Um, there
Speaker 1: are concerns about the nominee. There are concerns that this
Speaker 1: investigation wasn't done. Okay, but we've heard all We've heard
Speaker 1: all the allegations. We know that Professor Ford's so called
Speaker 1: eye witness has contradicted her testimony and her accuse zation.
Speaker 1: We know in the case of Ms. Ramirez, the New
Speaker 1: York Times wouldn't even publish it because they discovered nobody
Speaker 1: that corroborate her story number one, number two or own words,
Speaker 1: that she was inebriated quickly, had gaps in her memory,
Speaker 1: and the fact that we now know that you know
Speaker 1: so many different things that we didn't know before, and
Speaker 1: that Ms. Ramirez was actually out there soliciting information from
Speaker 1: her fellow Yale classmates. The New York Times reported that
Speaker 1: because she quote couldn't remember, and in the case of
Speaker 1: Julie sweat Nick, we saw her backtrack dramatically from her
Speaker 1: original story and her claim that Judge Kavanaugh was a
Speaker 1: serial drugger and rapist of teenage girls. So give me
Speaker 1: the evidence in corroboration to any of these women's story.
Speaker 1: That's what I want from you, Danielle, And don't duck
Speaker 1: and don't dodge, and don't hamm and hall that I'm
Speaker 1: asking a tough question. Give me any corroboration you have.
Speaker 1: I don't hit the corroboration because I'm not a FBI
Speaker 1: and I'm not the one who was investigating this, right
Speaker 1: and we talked about this last week. Wait a minute,
Speaker 1: but everybody's been talking. Wanted was a full and fear investigation,
Speaker 1: said Twiny, corroborating witnesses. The FBI did not interview, the
Speaker 1: FI did not excuse me. Every main person that was
Speaker 1: mentioned in the case of Professor Ford and the case
Speaker 1: of Mr Ramirez. The New York Times tried to corroborate it.
Speaker 1: They spent an entire week, interviewed dozens of people. And
Speaker 1: then she herself was calling around to other Yale classmates saying,
Speaker 1: I don't I don't remember, do you remember. I'm not
Speaker 1: sure if it was him that exposed himself, and then
Speaker 1: we all watched Julie Sweat Nick Altar shift and backtrack
Speaker 1: from her original allegation, which was gang raping and systematic
Speaker 1: drugging of women. So, could you have any corroboration for
Speaker 1: any of these incidents at all? I'm not doing the
Speaker 1: investigations that I don't expect that you would expect that
Speaker 1: I did. But in all your following of the press,
Speaker 1: you can't find any corroboration either, can you. As a
Speaker 1: matter of fact, we're getting just the opposite of corroboration.
Speaker 1: People are saying they don't recall those stories at all,
Speaker 1: that it or that it didn't happen that way at all.
Speaker 1: So the judges college roommate has been on there in
Speaker 1: the last twenty four hours talking about the judges drinking. Honestly,
Speaker 1: I think this is horrendous for both sides. Um the
Speaker 1: idea not answering my question. I'm asking you if the
Speaker 1: people make serious claims allegations on a serious, real topic,
Speaker 1: because there are real, evil, horrible predator predators in this world.
Speaker 1: And they mentioned that they're specific people if you interview
Speaker 1: them that they're going to tell you my story is true,
Speaker 1: and it turns out to be the opposite. Don't you
Speaker 1: believe in the presumption of innocence? Daniel McLaughlin, Yes or no.
Speaker 1: Of course I do su something. Of course I believe
Speaker 1: in the in the in the presumption of innocence. But
Speaker 1: I also believe that the FBI should have been allowed
Speaker 1: to do a full and fair investigation. And that is
Speaker 1: why you're going to see on the list a huge uproar.
Speaker 1: And I understand that this is energizing the GOP. I
Speaker 1: know this is a talking point. What listen, hang on
Speaker 1: a second. Once you interview, look at in the case
Speaker 1: of Professor Ford, the four people she identified were at
Speaker 1: the party, and none of the four have any recollection
Speaker 1: of the event, and the one eye witness says it
Speaker 1: didn't happen. What else are they supposed to do? Because
Speaker 1: we don't know where it happened, We don't know when
Speaker 1: it happened, we don't know the location. She doesn't know
Speaker 1: how she got there or got home from there. What
Speaker 1: else is the FBI to do? They had already given
Speaker 1: sworn statements under the penalty of felony, and all they
Speaker 1: did is reiterate those statements of the FBI. What else
Speaker 1: could they possibly do, Dan Yell in that case, haven't
Speaker 1: been on the opposite side of just don't know. What
Speaker 1: else can they possibly do? Knowing the facts as we
Speaker 1: know that we don't know where, we don't know when,
Speaker 1: we don't know Huh okay, okay, it's true things. The
Speaker 1: fact that she doesn't remember we're where and when exactly
Speaker 1: is not necessarily Now now you're you're trying to you're
Speaker 1: trying to change follow the bouncy ball, Follow the bouncy ball.
Speaker 1: If there's four people that were eye witnesses, but we
Speaker 1: don't know where, we don't know when, we don't know
Speaker 1: how she got there, we don't know how she got home.
Speaker 1: We don't even know the house. But you mentioned four
Speaker 1: people were there. The four people under penalty of felony
Speaker 1: all said it didn't happen the way she said. One
Speaker 1: I witness said it didn't happen. So my question is
Speaker 1: what else can the FBI do if they don't know
Speaker 1: the location. They can't be looking forensically for anything. Quick break.
Speaker 1: We'll come back more with Jonathan Gillham and Danielle McLaughlin
Speaker 1: here on the Sean Hannity Show. Right as we continue
Speaker 1: with Danielle McLaughlin and Jonathan Gillham here on the Sean
Speaker 1: Hannity Show. So they talked to the four people. The
Speaker 1: four people stand by their original statements. What else can
Speaker 1: the FBI do? Well, three of the people they don't remember.
Speaker 1: Judge has denied it. What else can the FBI do
Speaker 1: beyond interview these people who already are would be committing
Speaker 1: perjury if they change their story. What else is left
Speaker 1: for them to do? The pin of the Safeway employment
Speaker 1: records and figure out what time exactly that Mark Judge say,
Speaker 1: to try and triangulate should we be should we be
Speaker 1: looking into the rape allegations of Bill Clinton Roderick? If only,
Speaker 1: if only Dr Ford was given the I'm asking should
Speaker 1: we be getting? Should law enforcement in the FBI investigate
Speaker 1: the rape allegation of Bill Clinton? Need to brodrict allegations
Speaker 1: were already investigated by the Star by the excuse me,
Speaker 1: not by the FBI. Should we should the FBI now
Speaker 1: investigate them? If this is the new standard? Jonathan, No,
Speaker 1: because that's not our authority. That those are local crimes
Speaker 1: that happened. Now in the case where we needed Roderick though, however,
Speaker 1: um he that would have been a state matter because
Speaker 1: at the time Bill Clinton was the attorney general, you know.
Speaker 1: And so, but here's the thing that you keep saying,
Speaker 1: and Daniel, I love you, but here's what you keep missing.
Speaker 1: And so many people that are emotionally involved with this,
Speaker 1: if you take the emotion out of it, I know
Speaker 1: that's difficult because people are very passionate. But if you
Speaker 1: take the motion out of it and you look at
Speaker 1: the investigative facts, there are none and there's not gonna
Speaker 1: be any because it doesn't matter who you question. The
Speaker 1: very people that the the the alleged victim claims where
Speaker 1: the closest to the to the alleged crime, don't know anything.
Speaker 1: And so as you go out in a perimeter away
Speaker 1: from the people who the victim says was was there,
Speaker 1: and you interview other people that may have heard somebody
Speaker 1: say something or heard here say, it becomes hearsay. You
Speaker 1: know that from being in court that when you have uh,
Speaker 1: just statements with no corroborating evidence, the case quickly falls
Speaker 1: to the side. And I and the problem is that.
Speaker 1: And then also the fact that the FBI is being
Speaker 1: used outside of their authority for a political matter, and
Speaker 1: that scares me as a former FBI agent. That scares
Speaker 1: me because that is the that's the thing that total
Speaker 1: militarian um governments do. Look. Look, I agree, and I
Speaker 1: think that one thing that's important to go back to
Speaker 1: is what is the standard here is this is not
Speaker 1: a criminal investigation. Uh. This is an investigation into conduct
Speaker 1: that may or may not have bearing on whether somebody
Speaker 1: gets a lifetime appointment. Um. And I understand, and I
Speaker 1: agree that this has become extremely political and extremely emotional.
Speaker 1: And I think that's partly because Danielle, it's an important question.
Speaker 1: Do you have any corroborating witness or any corroborating evidence
Speaker 1: at all you can cite right now? That is an
Speaker 1: un question. That is an unfair Is that an unfair question, Jonathan?
Speaker 1: I don't think it's unfair, Jonathan, Well, I think when
Speaker 1: we say fair or unfair, I think what it is
Speaker 1: is a legitimate question. I'll tell you why I didn't,
Speaker 1: you know, because people are so again angry and people
Speaker 1: are saying I believe her or I believe him. But
Speaker 1: in this case, there's just no other witnesses, there's no
Speaker 1: other evidence. And so when you're asked if you feel
Speaker 1: this passionate about something and somebody says, what other information
Speaker 1: do you have? That's a legitimate question because there is none.
Speaker 1: And the FBI, who is secreted into this investigation, has
Speaker 1: come up with none either. And I can guarantee you
Speaker 1: if anybody would have and could have, it would be them. Right.
Speaker 1: And on the other side, there is no corroborating evidence
Speaker 1: as to where the judge was on any given day,
Speaker 1: whether he was there on people I think people are
Speaker 1: emotional for anyway. He actually has a copy of his
Speaker 1: summer calendar that year, but we don't have an exact
Speaker 1: day anyway. So, right, but what you're saying is, you know,
Speaker 1: he has to prove his innocence or is he innocent
Speaker 1: before proven haven't been proven guilty? What what do you
Speaker 1: believe in he is innocent before proven guilty? Again, this
Speaker 1: is okay, So he hasn't been proven guilty, Danielle has
Speaker 1: he He has not been proven guilty, And it's gone
Speaker 1: on a long time, not to a legal standard that
Speaker 1: would be required for absolutely not. But I don't believe
Speaker 1: that is a standard here and right, thank you both,
Speaker 1: We appreciate it. Eight nine one sewn toll free telephone number,
Speaker 1: Final hour free for all We're gonna get to your
Speaker 1: calls next. One Sean is our number. You want to
Speaker 1: be a part of the program, alright, now till the
Speaker 1: top of the hour. One Sean is our toll free
Speaker 1: telephone number. You want to be a part of the program. Alright.
Speaker 1: So this vote Friday, Saturday, Big votes, big opportunity. And
Speaker 1: we have Susan Collins and Senator Snowflake saying that they
Speaker 1: are satisfied at the comprehensive investigation of the FBI, Lisa
Speaker 1: Murkowski saying hasn't had time to read it. Democrats in
Speaker 1: an uproar, angry upset, lashing out at the FBI. What
Speaker 1: were they supposed to do except to interview the people
Speaker 1: that was supposed to corroborate the stories of this That's
Speaker 1: what they did. They got what they wanted and it's
Speaker 1: never ever gonna be enough. Alright, back to our phones,
Speaker 1: as we say, Hi, First, Brandon is in Colorado, Brandon High.
Speaker 1: How are you glad you called? And welcome to the
Speaker 1: Shawn Hannity Show. Hey, thanks, Sean. I grew up and
Speaker 1: spent most of my life in Arizona, where most of
Speaker 1: my family still is, and I'm actually a distant relative
Speaker 1: of Jeff Lake, and I do think he is a
Speaker 1: decent man, and I think he has a good heart.
Speaker 1: But I really feel like he's getting played here by
Speaker 1: the Democrats and the left. And I just really really
Speaker 1: hope that, uh he'll make the right decision tomorrow or Saturday.
Speaker 1: It sounds it sounds like after his comments today that
Speaker 1: that's more likely. But uh, it's just you know, I
Speaker 1: know there's a reason he's not running for reelection, and
Speaker 1: it's just hard to see, uh see good people leave
Speaker 1: to Washington and come back a few years later and
Speaker 1: and not be able to really recognize him. And I
Speaker 1: feel like that happened with McCain and I feel like
Speaker 1: that's kind of happening with Jeff as well. I think
Speaker 1: the most shocking statement that he made was on sixty
Speaker 1: Minutes when he when he actually admitted when and asked
Speaker 1: if he would be voting this way if he had
Speaker 1: to face the voters again, absolutely not um. And I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: so you're you only stand on your principles when when
Speaker 1: you have to face the voters. But that's not how
Speaker 1: you really feel. It really sums up how I view
Speaker 1: a lot of politicians, you know. I I just look
Speaker 1: at a guy that can't doesn't know his own mind
Speaker 1: at times, and doesn't you know, he's the same guy
Speaker 1: that wanted to be on the Survivor show. And uh,
Speaker 1: you know, you look at him and uh, you'll find
Speaker 1: this funny, Sean, But we were actually related or I
Speaker 1: think it's our three or four generations back are great
Speaker 1: great something grandfather's. He was actually the founder of Snowflake Arizona,
Speaker 1: which I thought you would really love to know, you know,
Speaker 1: somebody told me that yesterday. I'm like, really, now there
Speaker 1: is a Snowflake Arizona. Senator Snowflake. Um, look, I hope
Speaker 1: he does the right thing. If any Republican senator now,
Speaker 1: especially Murkowski Collins flake after they got what they wanted,
Speaker 1: they got their delay, they got the FBI weighing in. Uh,
Speaker 1: Joe Biden said it would They're not gonna offer recommendations
Speaker 1: and they're not gonna offer opinions here, and all they're
Speaker 1: gonna do is give you straight data. And that's what
Speaker 1: was given. And everybody seems pleased by that. His comments,
Speaker 1: Susan Collins comments seemed to satisfy them. No corroboration of
Speaker 1: any of these claims as we've been claiming, and as
Speaker 1: we've been telling you, and so the allegations have been
Speaker 1: problematic from the start. You know, assuming assuming for a
Speaker 1: second here Judge Kavanaugh were to get confirmed. We we
Speaker 1: have got to have a deep analysis in this country
Speaker 1: over where we want to go forward in terms of
Speaker 1: going forward, because if we allow this to happen to
Speaker 1: good people, it's it is so it's so dark. Um.
Speaker 1: I was having a conversation with a friend of mine
Speaker 1: who is religious, and we're discussing, you know, look at
Speaker 1: the Ten Commandments, why he's one of the ten commandments
Speaker 1: that shall not bear false witness against that neighbor. Because
Speaker 1: it's devastating for the rest of Brett Kavanaugh's life. People
Speaker 1: know that this is what he's been accused of, and
Speaker 1: yet in spite of the fact there's been no corroboration,
Speaker 1: shifting stories and a media hysteria that that's why. To
Speaker 1: the extent that people can literally destroy other people within nuendo,
Speaker 1: false uncorroborated claims is shocking to me. They did it
Speaker 1: to Robert Borke, they did it to Clarence Thomas, They've
Speaker 1: been doing it to Brett Kavanaugh. They do it to Republicans,
Speaker 1: Conservatives every two and four years. Their racist, their sexist,
Speaker 1: they want grandma to die, all these things that come
Speaker 1: out as a matter of of course, because that's their playbook.
Speaker 1: I don't know, I um I somehow, at some point
Speaker 1: we may need to examine libel laws. At some point
Speaker 1: we may need to say, if you're gonna make these
Speaker 1: skirlless accusations against individuals, you better be able to prove it,
Speaker 1: because if you can't prove it, then you ought to
Speaker 1: be held financially liable. Because Ray Donovan once famously said,
Speaker 1: where do I go to get my good name back?
Speaker 1: After he was run through the ring or in the
Speaker 1: Reagan years. I don't know how you get your good
Speaker 1: name back? You know. I know Clarence Thomas. I've met
Speaker 1: Clarence Thomas. Clarence Thomas has the best laugh of any
Speaker 1: human being I've had. I've met my life. You read
Speaker 1: his book, My Grandfather's Son, and you are going to
Speaker 1: be stunned at the life lessons you can learn from
Speaker 1: that book and what he went through. It still comes
Speaker 1: up twenty five years later, and I would say, there's
Speaker 1: two things we need to change legally in the country.
Speaker 1: If we're gonna have tort reform of any kind. Loser pays,
Speaker 1: you want to sue, and you lose, you gotta pay
Speaker 1: for the trial. And the second is I think slander
Speaker 1: laws in the country need to be adjusted as well.
Speaker 1: You cannot just say anything about a public figure, and
Speaker 1: the bar is so high that you actually have to
Speaker 1: get into somebody's mind improve that they didn't have any
Speaker 1: malice whatsoever. It's an impossible standard to ever meet. And
Speaker 1: I'm not even saying, look I expected in my life,
Speaker 1: my career, it happens all the time. But um, I
Speaker 1: signed up for this. I dish it out four hours
Speaker 1: a day. But I don't think brit Kavanaugh signed up
Speaker 1: for this when he agreed to accept the president's prestigious
Speaker 1: nomination of the U. S. Supreme Court. Not this, not
Speaker 1: what his kids have gone through, now, what his family
Speaker 1: have gone through. Anyway, Brandon, thank you appreciated. Nine for one.
Speaker 1: Shawn told free telephone number. Michelle is in North Carolina.
Speaker 1: Next Michelle, Happy Thursday, glad you with us. Welcome to
Speaker 1: the Sean Hannity Show. Thank you, Sean. It's always such
Speaker 1: an under to talk to you. Um I wanted to say,
Speaker 1: I absolutely agree with you. I think something. One of
Speaker 1: the other reasons why it is so desperate that we
Speaker 1: all vote read on November six is because the Democrats
Speaker 1: have systematically array all of the checks and balances between
Speaker 1: the three branches of government. They are now using the
Speaker 1: judicial system as a weapon against our own citizens, and
Speaker 1: it's time for us to stand up into to make
Speaker 1: lawfulness be the law of the land. We have they've
Speaker 1: they've purposely gone against police officers, and it's all just systematic.
Speaker 1: Now they want for us to try cases in the
Speaker 1: court of public opinions, and that is not how the
Speaker 1: United States has run. The United States is a different
Speaker 1: country because of our laws, and because of our judicial system,
Speaker 1: and because of our law enforcement agencies. And if we
Speaker 1: do not uphold those we will fail to be a
Speaker 1: constitutional republic and will be no better than any other
Speaker 1: dictatorships and the horrible you know things that you see
Speaker 1: happening in other places in the world. Listen, this is
Speaker 1: what makes us unique. This is what makes so special.
Speaker 1: This has worked very well for us in in our
Speaker 1: two hundred and what fifty year plus history. This is
Speaker 1: what keeps America different. There are countries where you're guilty
Speaker 1: until proven innocent. Um. I things have gotten so overwhelmingly
Speaker 1: over the top, so extreme in each case where where
Speaker 1: Judge Kavanaugh has been accused and the accusers mentioned names
Speaker 1: of people and whatever evidence that they would have to
Speaker 1: corroborate their story, it has fallen apart each end. Every
Speaker 1: time we watched this man go through the agony of
Speaker 1: crying repeatedly on national TV. Now we hear some senators saying, well,
Speaker 1: he may not have the temperament. Look at how angry
Speaker 1: he was when he was defending himself. Well, I don't
Speaker 1: know what they think the appropriate responses if you're accused
Speaker 1: of drugging young teenage girls and systematically raping them on
Speaker 1: an almost weekly basis. I don't know what the appropriate responses,
Speaker 1: But I think if I was innocent and somebody said
Speaker 1: it about me, I'd be pretty piste off, and I'd
Speaker 1: want people to know. I want people to see the
Speaker 1: righteous indignation in in me that I did not do this,
Speaker 1: and the passion that that that is behind that those
Speaker 1: words that I am speaking, that's not me. That's not
Speaker 1: who I've ever been, that's not who I would ever be.
Speaker 1: I'm not that person. I never did that. How do
Speaker 1: you say that in a way, I mean, he's supposed
Speaker 1: to say it like now, I'm I'm medicine of these charges.
Speaker 1: Nobody's gonna believe that most human beings this. I felt
Speaker 1: that Judge Kavanaugh's denials it was raw. I bet you
Speaker 1: He's never been that angry and emotional in his life,
Speaker 1: but the circumstances warranted it based on the seriousness of
Speaker 1: the allegations against him. I don't know any other way
Speaker 1: that a human being would otherwise react. Absolutely, I call
Speaker 1: that righteous indignation exactly. Believe from I believe that the
Speaker 1: man has spent his entire life wanting to be a judge,
Speaker 1: and he did everything that he needed to do to
Speaker 1: get to that position. And he has also, like he
Speaker 1: has said on multiple occasions, the justice system, it's left
Speaker 1: to itself, is intended to protect the innocence, and instead,
Speaker 1: what you're seeing is he is absolutely being attacked by
Speaker 1: the very laws that he has spent his life upholding,
Speaker 1: which is you, the defendant does not have to prove
Speaker 1: their innocence. It is on the prosecution to prove someone's guilt.
Speaker 1: And they're completely flipping the tide, and we cannot let's
Speaker 1: assume for a second, Michelle, that he gets on the
Speaker 1: Supreme Court after going through this experience, and he's a judge,
Speaker 1: and now he more than anybody, I think it's going
Speaker 1: to have a heightened sensitivity to the idea of the
Speaker 1: presumption of innocence. Right. I wonder in many in a
Speaker 1: weird way, God works in mysterious ways, that he may
Speaker 1: not become one of our best justices ever based on
Speaker 1: this process and based on what has happened to him
Speaker 1: in his own life experience with this, absolutely, I completely agree.
Speaker 1: I mean, especially once you've been through the system and
Speaker 1: you can understand how it feels to be treated when
Speaker 1: you're innocent, um, you know, and up against it. And
Speaker 1: I mean he's in the highest level in the land.
Speaker 1: This is not somebody that they just pulled over on
Speaker 1: the side of a road, you know, and he's being
Speaker 1: mistreated by police officers. This is somebody who has spent
Speaker 1: his life in the highest levels of the judicial system
Speaker 1: with all of these, you know, with the highest security
Speaker 1: clearance that is available to somebody that's not the President
Speaker 1: of the United States, Michelle. He had the codes to
Speaker 1: our nuclear weapons eighteen days ago. He had an impeccable
Speaker 1: reputation as character was never put in question. Eighteen days ago.
Speaker 1: Boy is his life changed? Boy is his kid's life changed,
Speaker 1: His wife's life changed. It was hard watching his wife
Speaker 1: behind him. You know crying, Is he's crying. Is he's
Speaker 1: talking about his ten year old daughter, saying that, no,
Speaker 1: we ought to pray for Professor Ford. Um, I know,
Speaker 1: I wasn't that good at ten year old. That sounds
Speaker 1: like a pretty special kid to me. Absolutely, and we
Speaker 1: all need to be praying because this is I don't
Speaker 1: believe that this is just against Republicans and Democrats. There's
Speaker 1: a spiritual more going on here. And thirty three days, Michelle,
Speaker 1: I hope you're out there North Carolina matters eight hundred
Speaker 1: nine for one. Seawan is a number you want to
Speaker 1: be a part of the program. Mary is in Brooklyn,
Speaker 1: New York. The All New Am seven ten wore the
Speaker 1: Talk of New York, New Jersey and Long Island. What's
Speaker 1: going on? Uh? Mary? How are you? Oh? I'm good. Hi, Sean,
Speaker 1: how are you? I'm good? Thank you? So, you know,
Speaker 1: I have a lot of different questions. I actually live
Speaker 1: on Long Island. But one of the one of the
Speaker 1: things that I've taken note to is how the liberal
Speaker 1: media completely distorts the fact and puts it out and
Speaker 1: unless you to due diligence or pay attention to Fox News, UM,
Speaker 1: you totally miss what reality is. I mean, you have
Speaker 1: to go to the Senate Judiciary Committee review their timeline
Speaker 1: of investigation to show what they actually investigated before they
Speaker 1: even had this seventh FBI investigation. You have to, like
Speaker 1: because if you just pay attention to the liberal media,
Speaker 1: you would think they did they did nothing that that
Speaker 1: they just they didn't even get Bret Kavanaugh that and
Speaker 1: instead they've they've vetted him so many different times at
Speaker 1: this point and now once now that's coming out that
Speaker 1: they have nothing more fully completely, Um, the allegations are
Speaker 1: totally unsubstantiated. And yet now they're going into the fact
Speaker 1: that oh, we drank some school and like you said, oh,
Speaker 1: they said, oh he threw ice at somebody, We threw
Speaker 1: ice cubes at a bar in college. I'm like, oh, man, anyway,
Speaker 1: thanks for the call, appreciate it. Right. Hannity Tonight a
Speaker 1: nine eastern on the Fox News Channel, the latest in
Speaker 1: a battle to confirm Judge Kavanaugh. The FBI report all
