WEBVTT - Medicaid Fraud Machine

0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:03.120
<v Speaker 1>All right, News Roundup and Information Overload hour. Here's our

0:00:03.120 --> 0:00:04.920
<v Speaker 1>toll free telephone number you want to be a part

0:00:04.920 --> 0:00:06.840
<v Speaker 1>of the program as eight hundred and ninety four to

0:00:06.840 --> 0:00:10.200
<v Speaker 1>one Sean if you want to join us. Our friend

0:00:10.440 --> 0:00:15.080
<v Speaker 1>Luke Rosiak did an investigative report. I want to read

0:00:15.080 --> 0:00:17.560
<v Speaker 1>a part of it to you. He said, I've been

0:00:17.600 --> 0:00:21.439
<v Speaker 1>investigating the federal waste and fraud that has been going

0:00:21.440 --> 0:00:24.360
<v Speaker 1>on in this country for twenty years. It is the

0:00:24.400 --> 0:00:28.400
<v Speaker 1>biggest scandal I have ever had. He goes on to

0:00:28.520 --> 0:00:34.360
<v Speaker 1>explain before the Department, well before DOGE, basically it made,

0:00:34.760 --> 0:00:38.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, a quiet move that may end up as

0:00:38.720 --> 0:00:43.120
<v Speaker 1>the most lasting impact on the federal deficit. And he

0:00:43.200 --> 0:00:47.400
<v Speaker 1>points to how DOGE published a massive trove of data

0:00:48.400 --> 0:00:50.960
<v Speaker 1>that for the first time they're letting the public see

0:00:50.960 --> 0:00:55.000
<v Speaker 1>it when companies are billing medicaid for it. Now, we've

0:00:55.080 --> 0:00:58.360
<v Speaker 1>gotten a really nice glimpse into a lot of this

0:00:59.040 --> 0:01:03.760
<v Speaker 1>in Minni Apple, other states, even like Ohio, but California

0:01:03.760 --> 0:01:06.800
<v Speaker 1>in particular, New York in particular, and it's only going

0:01:06.840 --> 0:01:10.319
<v Speaker 1>to get bigger. And anyway, he's been doing a deep

0:01:10.360 --> 0:01:13.039
<v Speaker 1>dive into all of these numbers, and he said it's

0:01:13.040 --> 0:01:16.000
<v Speaker 1>the most blatant waste of federal dollars that I have

0:01:16.200 --> 0:01:19.960
<v Speaker 1>encountered in my two decades as an investigative reporter. Now

0:01:19.959 --> 0:01:22.279
<v Speaker 1>this is only the tip of the iceberg. It seems

0:01:22.280 --> 0:01:28.399
<v Speaker 1>to be focused on home healthcare, hospice, daycare facilities that

0:01:28.640 --> 0:01:33.480
<v Speaker 1>don't have any children, and other healthcare scams. Anyway, we

0:01:33.560 --> 0:01:39.240
<v Speaker 1>invited Luke Roseiak, investigative reporter at The Daily Wire that

0:01:39.319 --> 0:01:42.240
<v Speaker 1>did a five part series spending months on the ground

0:01:42.240 --> 0:01:46.720
<v Speaker 1>in Columbus investigating you know this medicaid, you know fraud

0:01:46.760 --> 0:01:50.240
<v Speaker 1>and where the money is actually going. Luke, welcome back, sir.

0:01:50.280 --> 0:01:50.640
<v Speaker 2>How are you?

0:01:51.720 --> 0:01:53.080
<v Speaker 3>I'm good son, Thanks for having me?

0:01:53.960 --> 0:01:55.560
<v Speaker 2>All right? Why don't I give you the ball?

0:01:56.040 --> 0:01:58.160
<v Speaker 1>And I want to let you run with this because

0:01:58.200 --> 0:02:01.360
<v Speaker 1>you you've been doing the deeper dive that I have

0:02:01.520 --> 0:02:03.760
<v Speaker 1>been doing. I've only been able to report on it

0:02:03.960 --> 0:02:06.600
<v Speaker 1>based on other people's great hard work like yours.

0:02:06.680 --> 0:02:08.120
<v Speaker 2>So I'll let you explain it.

0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:11.000
<v Speaker 3>Sure. So, at the root of all the great work

0:02:11.000 --> 0:02:15.280
<v Speaker 3>we've seen from people like Nick Shirley is medicaid waivers,

0:02:15.320 --> 0:02:19.600
<v Speaker 3>which means Medicaid was intended to be basically let the

0:02:19.639 --> 0:02:22.640
<v Speaker 3>four people go to the doctor, but waivers let states

0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:28.040
<v Speaker 3>add in extra programs that are oftentimes only have tangential justification.

0:02:28.120 --> 0:02:30.360
<v Speaker 3>They're really pushing the limit of what this was designed

0:02:30.360 --> 0:02:34.000
<v Speaker 3>to do. Minnesota really did that. Ohio did it too,

0:02:34.680 --> 0:02:36.480
<v Speaker 3>and one of the ways that they did it is

0:02:37.440 --> 0:02:41.799
<v Speaker 3>by allowing family members of people to get paid for

0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:46.720
<v Speaker 3>helping their elderly parents with cleaning or cooking or just

0:02:46.760 --> 0:02:50.560
<v Speaker 3>even what they call conversation and companionship. In other words,

0:02:50.560 --> 0:02:53.640
<v Speaker 3>they're paying people to hang out with their own family members.

0:02:53.680 --> 0:02:56.400
<v Speaker 3>If you can believe it, they're not nurses or anything.

0:02:57.400 --> 0:02:59.680
<v Speaker 3>And then you know, you can also have other clients.

0:02:59.680 --> 0:03:02.079
<v Speaker 3>In some cases, they have these businesses where you'll go

0:03:02.160 --> 0:03:06.559
<v Speaker 3>and you supposedly check on old ladies, but it's basically

0:03:06.639 --> 0:03:10.160
<v Speaker 3>what I call free Butler's for Somali's. You know, they'll

0:03:10.200 --> 0:03:12.200
<v Speaker 3>send a personal servant to your house and if you

0:03:12.240 --> 0:03:15.080
<v Speaker 3>want them to clean or do your hair or you know,

0:03:15.160 --> 0:03:18.320
<v Speaker 3>cook for you, they'll do it. And you know, there

0:03:18.480 --> 0:03:20.639
<v Speaker 3>there are so many people now who are just getting

0:03:20.680 --> 0:03:23.079
<v Speaker 3>paid in Columbus, Ohio to take care of their own

0:03:23.120 --> 0:03:26.440
<v Speaker 3>family members, and they get paid through these middleman companies

0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:29.560
<v Speaker 3>that then bill Medicaid that there are entire buildings there's

0:03:29.560 --> 0:03:32.960
<v Speaker 3>actually an entire street where there's like no businesses remaining

0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:35.720
<v Speaker 3>except these home healthcare firms. And I went in, there's

0:03:35.720 --> 0:03:39.320
<v Speaker 3>one landlord that owns seven buildings. Inside those seven buildings

0:03:39.400 --> 0:03:43.600
<v Speaker 3>are just three hundred different medicaid companies. All of them

0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:47.240
<v Speaker 3>together build Medicaid a quarter billion dollars. And that's just

0:03:47.280 --> 0:03:48.720
<v Speaker 3>one landlord, you know.

0:03:48.880 --> 0:03:52.240
<v Speaker 1>I interviewed doctor Oz and I think he has a

0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:55.600
<v Speaker 1>handle on this in terms of being inside a government

0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:58.240
<v Speaker 1>more than any other official. I don't know if you've

0:03:58.240 --> 0:04:01.960
<v Speaker 1>spent time with him. And he keeps telling me, Sean,

0:04:02.160 --> 0:04:05.000
<v Speaker 1>it's going to be hundreds of billions of dollars. And

0:04:05.040 --> 0:04:07.840
<v Speaker 1>then he went on to explain that is money that

0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:12.000
<v Speaker 1>would otherwise be available for people that really do need

0:04:12.080 --> 0:04:15.240
<v Speaker 1>help that we can't afford to help at this time,

0:04:16.000 --> 0:04:21.520
<v Speaker 1>and that the waste, fraud, corruption, abuse, and outright stealing

0:04:22.080 --> 0:04:26.080
<v Speaker 1>from the American taxpayer is way beyond anybody's comprehension.

0:04:26.400 --> 0:04:28.839
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean, Medicaid is a huge portion of the

0:04:28.880 --> 0:04:31.880
<v Speaker 3>federal budget. And some of the people, especially in the left,

0:04:31.920 --> 0:04:34.200
<v Speaker 3>even said, why is Doge even trying to cut different

0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:36.080
<v Speaker 3>government agencies and so on. It's not going to make

0:04:36.120 --> 0:04:38.360
<v Speaker 3>a difference because most of the budget is you know,

0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:41.960
<v Speaker 3>defense and Medicaid. Well, Medicaid, it turns out, is not

0:04:42.080 --> 0:04:44.600
<v Speaker 3>something that is just like off limits. Medicaid is just

0:04:44.680 --> 0:04:48.359
<v Speaker 3>infested with fraud and waste. And because we didn't have

0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:50.920
<v Speaker 3>the data, we didn't know who was billing and once

0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:53.320
<v Speaker 3>you see who's billing it, it's the sketchiest people you

0:04:53.360 --> 0:04:56.880
<v Speaker 3>can imagine. Every single person in these buildings in Columbus

0:04:56.920 --> 0:04:59.400
<v Speaker 3>who has these companies was not American, I mean ninety

0:04:59.440 --> 0:05:03.479
<v Speaker 3>nine percent, or Somali or from other African countries. A

0:05:03.520 --> 0:05:07.000
<v Speaker 3>lot of them have side businesses. At the same time

0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:09.919
<v Speaker 3>that they're collecting a million dollars a year for medicaid

0:05:10.000 --> 0:05:13.320
<v Speaker 3>or more, they're doing something else full time. It's insane.

0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:15.800
<v Speaker 3>And a lot of them don't even pay the taxes.

0:05:15.839 --> 0:05:19.080
<v Speaker 3>They have tax liens against them, they have criminal records.

0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:22.159
<v Speaker 3>You look these people up in public records and I

0:05:22.200 --> 0:05:25.960
<v Speaker 3>spend a long time meticulously researching them. It is insane

0:05:26.120 --> 0:05:29.360
<v Speaker 3>that somebody would just pay a million dollars or more.

0:05:29.440 --> 0:05:31.919
<v Speaker 3>Some of these are getting billing half a million dollars

0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:35.320
<v Speaker 3>a month for having people hang out with their own

0:05:35.360 --> 0:05:38.720
<v Speaker 3>family members, and there's no way to verify that. It's

0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:41.240
<v Speaker 3>really going on, you know, because it's like, unless you

0:05:41.279 --> 0:05:44.000
<v Speaker 3>have cameras in people's houses, who knows what's to do.

0:05:44.360 --> 0:05:46.719
<v Speaker 3>Best case scenario, we're paying people to hang out with

0:05:46.800 --> 0:05:50.359
<v Speaker 3>their family members, which is an absurd waste. Worst case

0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:53.840
<v Speaker 3>they say they've got clients who aren't their family members,

0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:56.200
<v Speaker 3>but there's no way we can verify that they're actually

0:05:56.240 --> 0:05:59.320
<v Speaker 3>going to their house because it's in private residences. And

0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:02.400
<v Speaker 3>I'll just tell you, I mean, it's the sketchiest buildings imaginable.

0:06:02.400 --> 0:06:05.080
<v Speaker 3>It's just not It does not seem right when you

0:06:05.279 --> 0:06:08.800
<v Speaker 3>walk down these halls and it's just endless, door after

0:06:08.880 --> 0:06:12.280
<v Speaker 3>door after door, and behind every door is some insane

0:06:12.480 --> 0:06:15.560
<v Speaker 3>story about some guy named, you know, Mohammed Ahmed or

0:06:15.560 --> 0:06:19.520
<v Speaker 3>Ahmed Mohammed. Their names are like Omar Omar. There's no

0:06:19.600 --> 0:06:22.520
<v Speaker 3>way the government is keeping track of these people properly,

0:06:22.960 --> 0:06:26.400
<v Speaker 3>and they can easily just you know, take this money

0:06:26.520 --> 0:06:29.119
<v Speaker 3>and say they visited some old person and they didn't

0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:32.520
<v Speaker 3>really and even if they get caught, nothing really happens.

0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:35.400
<v Speaker 1>Well, just like the daycare centers that don't have any

0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:39.600
<v Speaker 1>kids in them. It's timely in what you're saying, because

0:06:39.680 --> 0:06:43.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you've been following Congresswoman Omar she

0:06:43.640 --> 0:06:47.840
<v Speaker 1>refused to respond to a request from a Minnesota committee

0:06:48.279 --> 0:06:52.679
<v Speaker 1>seeking more information on her ties to this massive fraud

0:06:52.760 --> 0:06:56.000
<v Speaker 1>scandal in the state. You know, for example, doctor oz

0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:59.920
<v Speaker 1>on this program told me that about eighty seven percent

0:07:00.600 --> 0:07:04.880
<v Speaker 1>of kids in the Somali community out of Minnesota are

0:07:05.000 --> 0:07:11.280
<v Speaker 1>diagnosed with autism. I mean that rate is mathematically impossible,

0:07:12.080 --> 0:07:16.560
<v Speaker 1>well beyond any normal autism rate for kids, way higher.

0:07:17.560 --> 0:07:21.040
<v Speaker 1>And he what he was explaining was how the fraud

0:07:21.080 --> 0:07:25.560
<v Speaker 1>is kind of institutionalized, and that the system of fraud

0:07:25.640 --> 0:07:29.560
<v Speaker 1>is being passed on from family to family and neighbor

0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:33.000
<v Speaker 1>to neighbor. And that's why, you know, people say, oh,

0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:35.600
<v Speaker 1>you must be bigotted against people from Somalia.

0:07:35.640 --> 0:07:36.760
<v Speaker 2>No, it has nothing to do with that.

0:07:36.840 --> 0:07:41.760
<v Speaker 1>It's just that the Somali community institutionalized as fraud. And

0:07:42.000 --> 0:07:44.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying everybody. I'm saying the people that are

0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:46.080
<v Speaker 1>guilty need to be held accountable.

0:07:47.000 --> 0:07:47.560
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and I.

0:07:47.520 --> 0:07:50.560
<v Speaker 3>Don't know if all Somalis are scheming the government, but

0:07:50.640 --> 0:07:53.840
<v Speaker 3>I can tell you every virtually everybody doing this home

0:07:53.880 --> 0:07:58.280
<v Speaker 3>healthcare was Somali. And it just defies belief that, you know,

0:07:58.320 --> 0:08:00.800
<v Speaker 3>there aren't any Americans that I have old people that

0:08:00.920 --> 0:08:05.040
<v Speaker 3>need help taking care of them. It also defies belief

0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:08.040
<v Speaker 3>that you would come from an impoverished country and then

0:08:08.160 --> 0:08:10.960
<v Speaker 3>demand to be paid to hang out with your own family.

0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:14.000
<v Speaker 3>It defies belief that you would get ten million dollars

0:08:14.040 --> 0:08:15.240
<v Speaker 3>a year from our government.

0:08:15.360 --> 0:08:16.080
<v Speaker 2>Ger Well, I have.

0:08:16.080 --> 0:08:18.320
<v Speaker 1>Certain family members you'd probably have to pay me to

0:08:18.360 --> 0:08:20.600
<v Speaker 1>hang out with. I think everybody does.

0:08:21.000 --> 0:08:24.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, daycare there too, where they you know, on the

0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:27.320
<v Speaker 3>official Ohio website, and Ohio is a Republican run state,

0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:31.480
<v Speaker 3>they'll say they have an asterisk against half the daycares.

0:08:31.560 --> 0:08:33.480
<v Speaker 3>These are adult daycares. If you can believe it, that's

0:08:33.520 --> 0:08:37.000
<v Speaker 3>a real thing, And there is an asterisk this is

0:08:37.040 --> 0:08:39.680
<v Speaker 3>these are first Somalis, it said the government. It seems

0:08:39.720 --> 0:08:41.440
<v Speaker 3>illegal to me. I mean, if you said you had

0:08:41.440 --> 0:08:44.880
<v Speaker 3>a white's only daycare, would that fly? But I think

0:08:44.920 --> 0:08:46.880
<v Speaker 3>they know that if a white person goes in there

0:08:46.920 --> 0:08:49.320
<v Speaker 3>and says, hi, I'd like daycare for my aging father,

0:08:49.800 --> 0:08:52.040
<v Speaker 3>they say, no, get out of here, because you're not Somali,

0:08:52.440 --> 0:08:55.359
<v Speaker 3>and they have it seems like most of the Somalis,

0:08:55.400 --> 0:08:57.440
<v Speaker 3>they feel safe enough, will just kind of go along

0:08:57.480 --> 0:09:00.160
<v Speaker 3>with the scheme and not blow the whistle because a

0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:02.839
<v Speaker 3>lot of them are basically living in this parallel society

0:09:03.760 --> 0:09:06.400
<v Speaker 3>where you know, they have networks of people in their

0:09:06.440 --> 0:09:09.760
<v Speaker 3>clans and they'll offer up their Social Security numbers to

0:09:09.800 --> 0:09:14.400
<v Speaker 3>be billed against for non existent home healthcare and maybe

0:09:14.440 --> 0:09:16.960
<v Speaker 3>they get kickbacks. Maybe they have some structure where there's

0:09:16.960 --> 0:09:19.199
<v Speaker 3>like a kingpin at top of it all. But it's

0:09:19.240 --> 0:09:22.800
<v Speaker 3>amazing how many Somalis are involved in this. There's a

0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:26.199
<v Speaker 3>Somali that ran for state Senate with the Democrat endorsement

0:09:26.640 --> 0:09:29.560
<v Speaker 3>and he found it an eleven million dollar home healthcare

0:09:29.600 --> 0:09:31.720
<v Speaker 3>company and he was doing it on the side. He

0:09:31.760 --> 0:09:33.640
<v Speaker 3>had other jobs and when he ran for office, he

0:09:33.640 --> 0:09:36.280
<v Speaker 3>didn't even mention it. And his campaign says, I'm the

0:09:36.320 --> 0:09:39.439
<v Speaker 3>exemplification of the American dream, how anyone can come to

0:09:39.559 --> 0:09:42.640
<v Speaker 3>America and succeed. But apparently for him, that just means

0:09:43.000 --> 0:09:45.880
<v Speaker 3>building a huge amount for medicaid and it's not even

0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:46.960
<v Speaker 3>your real job.

0:09:47.640 --> 0:09:51.000
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know, if you look at Governor Tampon, Tim

0:09:51.080 --> 0:09:56.360
<v Speaker 1>Walls and Keith Ellison. Now we've had whistleblowers come forward

0:09:56.640 --> 0:10:00.560
<v Speaker 1>and say that they were made aware of of the

0:10:00.600 --> 0:10:02.800
<v Speaker 1>fraud that was taking place and they didn't lift a

0:10:02.840 --> 0:10:05.959
<v Speaker 1>finger to stop it. And they're both very defensive over it.

0:10:06.800 --> 0:10:09.079
<v Speaker 1>But it seems, at least according to them, if you

0:10:09.160 --> 0:10:12.800
<v Speaker 1>believe them, and I do, that they were very well aware.

0:10:13.000 --> 0:10:15.600
<v Speaker 1>And then then it makes you wonder, I mean, because

0:10:15.600 --> 0:10:19.520
<v Speaker 1>you're looking at a fairly large voting block whether or

0:10:19.559 --> 0:10:22.680
<v Speaker 1>not this was done for their own political benefit that

0:10:22.760 --> 0:10:24.120
<v Speaker 1>they turned a blind eye.

0:10:24.400 --> 0:10:27.480
<v Speaker 3>Well, look at Ohio. They had their primary election yesterday,

0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:29.680
<v Speaker 3>and there's been some projections about what's going to happen

0:10:29.760 --> 0:10:33.079
<v Speaker 3>in the general election, and people are saying the Democrat

0:10:33.160 --> 0:10:36.040
<v Speaker 3>might actually win. Ohio was a very it was a

0:10:36.080 --> 0:10:39.400
<v Speaker 3>close state where Republicans generally led. But you bring all

0:10:39.400 --> 0:10:42.800
<v Speaker 3>these somalis in and Columbus is the second most amount

0:10:42.840 --> 0:10:46.800
<v Speaker 3>of somalis after Minneapolis. And now they're saying that Democrats

0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:49.440
<v Speaker 3>could win Ohio. And when I looked up all these

0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:53.000
<v Speaker 3>home healthcare operators and I found their criminal records and

0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:55.760
<v Speaker 3>their debts and taxings and so on, what I also

0:10:55.800 --> 0:10:58.600
<v Speaker 3>found is that they're almost all registered voters, and of those,

0:10:58.600 --> 0:11:01.640
<v Speaker 3>almost all of them are for the Democratic Party.

0:11:02.160 --> 0:11:04.880
<v Speaker 1>All right, So walk us through some of the very

0:11:04.920 --> 0:11:10.080
<v Speaker 1>specific experiences that you had as you went to these

0:11:10.160 --> 0:11:13.640
<v Speaker 1>quote facilities that were really non facilities to begin with,

0:11:13.679 --> 0:11:15.840
<v Speaker 1>in the conversations that you had with the people that

0:11:15.880 --> 0:11:16.960
<v Speaker 1>were quote running them.

0:11:17.559 --> 0:11:19.959
<v Speaker 3>Sure, so I mean one of them. I went in

0:11:20.040 --> 0:11:23.600
<v Speaker 3>and they had you know, I had researched them and

0:11:23.640 --> 0:11:25.360
<v Speaker 3>found that they had. One of the guys. There was

0:11:25.400 --> 0:11:27.320
<v Speaker 3>a couple, a man and a wife running this business.

0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:33.320
<v Speaker 3>The man had been arrested like thirty times the endangerment

0:11:33.400 --> 0:11:37.200
<v Speaker 3>of children and so on. He had his nursing license

0:11:37.320 --> 0:11:41.840
<v Speaker 3>revoked for lying, He had theft convictions, violence convictions, and

0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:45.319
<v Speaker 3>then the wife was like arrested for like felony, malicious wounding,

0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:50.800
<v Speaker 3>also convicted of fast numerous times. And they had a

0:11:50.880 --> 0:11:54.079
<v Speaker 3>medicaid business that they started after all that, and Ohio

0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:57.720
<v Speaker 3>apparently said it was fine. The Medicaid department apparently said

0:11:57.720 --> 0:12:02.000
<v Speaker 3>it was fine, and they build a million dollars. So

0:12:02.240 --> 0:12:06.160
<v Speaker 3>another business. It was incorporated using the address of the

0:12:06.280 --> 0:12:10.000
<v Speaker 3>teenage son of a convicted money launderer, and it was

0:12:10.040 --> 0:12:12.760
<v Speaker 3>incorporated by an accountant who I think maybe didn't want

0:12:12.760 --> 0:12:15.400
<v Speaker 3>to use his own address because he had lost his

0:12:15.480 --> 0:12:19.640
<v Speaker 3>accountant license for stealing public funds. And they went on

0:12:19.720 --> 0:12:23.760
<v Speaker 3>to get paid seven million dollars through Medicaid. And it's

0:12:23.840 --> 0:12:25.960
<v Speaker 3>so blatant. Once you have the names of these people

0:12:25.960 --> 0:12:28.320
<v Speaker 3>and you look them up. It's like you pick any

0:12:28.320 --> 0:12:31.080
<v Speaker 3>at random and you find a story like this. But

0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:34.120
<v Speaker 3>without those names, we just didn't know who was getting it.

0:12:34.160 --> 0:12:36.360
<v Speaker 3>We were just told there's nothing we can do. Medicaid

0:12:36.400 --> 0:12:39.240
<v Speaker 3>is about to destroy the federal budget, and there's nothing

0:12:39.280 --> 0:12:41.480
<v Speaker 3>we can do. And now that we see who it is,

0:12:41.520 --> 0:12:46.040
<v Speaker 3>it's all almost all foreign, almost all just insane. Red

0:12:46.080 --> 0:12:49.319
<v Speaker 3>flags everywhere, and even in the red state of Ohio

0:12:49.360 --> 0:12:52.680
<v Speaker 3>with Governor DeWine, he seems to have his head in

0:12:52.679 --> 0:12:53.079
<v Speaker 3>the sand.

0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:56.959
<v Speaker 1>All right, quick break, more on the investigative reporting about

0:12:57.000 --> 0:13:01.040
<v Speaker 1>all those medicaid fraud and child care fraud with Luke

0:13:01.120 --> 0:13:03.960
<v Speaker 1>rosiac on the other side. Are total free numbers eight

0:13:04.080 --> 0:13:05.000
<v Speaker 1>hundred and ninety four one.

0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:05.280
<v Speaker 5>Shawn.

0:13:05.320 --> 0:13:06.600
<v Speaker 2>If you want to be a part of the program,

0:13:06.679 --> 0:13:07.960
<v Speaker 2>as we continue.

0:13:12.559 --> 0:13:16.040
<v Speaker 3>The information you need, the troth you demand.

0:13:16.640 --> 0:14:19.680
<v Speaker 6>This is the Sean Hannity Showry.

0:13:49.520 --> 0:13:53.560
<v Speaker 1>We continue investigative reporter for the Daily Wire. Luke Rosiack

0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:56.920
<v Speaker 1>is with us talking about Medicare fraud and of course

0:13:56.960 --> 0:14:01.680
<v Speaker 1>all the fraud that's taken place in Minnesota, California, New York.

0:14:01.800 --> 0:14:05.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's in the billions and billions of dollars.

0:14:05.480 --> 0:14:08.240
<v Speaker 1>You did write about one experience. You were driving down

0:14:08.280 --> 0:14:12.439
<v Speaker 1>Cleveland Avenue and in less than forty seconds you come

0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:16.920
<v Speaker 1>across endless home health companies and you name them, and

0:14:17.000 --> 0:14:21.800
<v Speaker 1>you talk about an enormous complex on Bush Boulevard and

0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:24.680
<v Speaker 1>there's no windows, which would be a problem for most

0:14:24.680 --> 0:14:28.560
<v Speaker 1>office buildings, which you're right about, and no one in

0:14:28.640 --> 0:14:32.440
<v Speaker 1>the building. And what's inside is ninety four different companies

0:14:32.480 --> 0:14:36.160
<v Speaker 1>signed up to build medicaid, each with a tiny office,

0:14:36.480 --> 0:14:40.360
<v Speaker 1>often mark with a sheet of paper Home Health LLC

0:14:40.480 --> 0:14:44.840
<v Speaker 1>for example, And that building alone build taxpayers sixty six

0:14:44.960 --> 0:14:45.920
<v Speaker 1>million dollars.

0:14:46.440 --> 0:14:50.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, just one building. Ninety four companies. They just basically

0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:54.360
<v Speaker 3>exist on paper. You know. They'll have paper, you know,

0:14:55.280 --> 0:14:58.240
<v Speaker 3>notices claiming they're all at lunch, like they're manipulators in

0:14:58.280 --> 0:15:01.720
<v Speaker 3>their liars, and those are the get getting money based

0:15:01.760 --> 0:15:06.960
<v Speaker 3>on these unverifiable services. And you know, of course they'll

0:15:06.960 --> 0:15:10.320
<v Speaker 3>accuse you of racism for even asking about about it,

0:15:10.360 --> 0:15:12.800
<v Speaker 3>which in itself is like why would it be racist

0:15:12.800 --> 0:15:15.200
<v Speaker 3>to inquire how you got ten million dollars? It's only

0:15:15.280 --> 0:15:18.320
<v Speaker 3>racist if you're acknowledging that. It's like only some allies

0:15:18.360 --> 0:15:21.840
<v Speaker 3>who are doing this, you know, There's a woman who

0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:25.320
<v Speaker 3>had a janitorial company cleaning toilets or whatever, and you know,

0:15:25.440 --> 0:15:29.040
<v Speaker 3>she renamed the LLC to be health and she started

0:15:29.040 --> 0:15:31.120
<v Speaker 3>billing one hundred She billed one hundred thousand dollars to

0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:33.360
<v Speaker 3>medicate in the first month. So you would think you

0:15:33.360 --> 0:15:36.040
<v Speaker 3>would it would take time to gather clients go on

0:15:36.320 --> 0:15:38.320
<v Speaker 3>and they're like, no, that's fine. Eventually she was billing

0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:40.480
<v Speaker 3>six hundred and fifty thousand dollars every month.

0:15:40.920 --> 0:15:45.120
<v Speaker 1>Well, you did great work, great investigative reporting, Luke Rosiak.

0:15:45.200 --> 0:15:48.080
<v Speaker 1>We do appreciate you sharing it with us. Keep up

0:15:48.120 --> 0:15:50.080
<v Speaker 1>the good works and thanks for being will.

0:15:49.960 --> 0:15:50.920
<v Speaker 3>Us John.

0:16:12.800 --> 0:16:19.400
<v Speaker 2>Exposing left wing media bias. No stone left unturned. The

0:16:19.480 --> 0:16:22.240
<v Speaker 2>Sean Hannity Show is back on the air.

0:16:22.680 --> 0:16:24.720
<v Speaker 1>You know when I started, I actually did have an

0:16:24.760 --> 0:16:27.960
<v Speaker 1>experience recently when I went with bloating. I want to

0:16:27.960 --> 0:16:32.200
<v Speaker 1>know why, because I stupidly went along with people that

0:16:32.240 --> 0:16:37.400
<v Speaker 1>were visiting me and we ordered Chinese food. Guess what,

0:16:37.640 --> 0:16:40.000
<v Speaker 1>it's garbage. I shouldn't eat Chinese food.

0:16:40.200 --> 0:16:43.000
<v Speaker 5>But that's a little bit different, you know, because Chinese

0:16:43.000 --> 0:16:44.640
<v Speaker 5>food has a lot of stuff in.

0:16:44.600 --> 0:16:48.120
<v Speaker 1>It, all the garbage, yeah, all the things. It tastes

0:16:48.160 --> 0:16:51.000
<v Speaker 1>great when you're eating it. I got beef and broccoli

0:16:51.760 --> 0:16:58.400
<v Speaker 1>with pork fried rice, and okay, I knew I shouldn't

0:16:58.400 --> 0:17:01.960
<v Speaker 1>eat it. I knew it, and I paid, But two

0:17:02.040 --> 0:17:06.399
<v Speaker 1>days I was blooted it up, bloaked. I hate that feeling.

0:17:07.359 --> 0:17:09.480
<v Speaker 1>But here's the thing, and meat, I feel great.

0:17:10.160 --> 0:17:13.359
<v Speaker 5>Right for your body, eggs and meat work right. So

0:17:13.480 --> 0:17:16.440
<v Speaker 5>for my body, I'm not allowed to have eggs. Who

0:17:16.480 --> 0:17:18.480
<v Speaker 5>knows why, But for my body it doesn't work now.

0:17:18.480 --> 0:17:21.720
<v Speaker 5>That might change in six or seven weeks, but me right.

0:17:21.640 --> 0:17:23.840
<v Speaker 2>Now, I can't have eggs either, so don't worry.

0:17:23.680 --> 0:17:27.560
<v Speaker 5>About that part. I can't have turkey either, Like I

0:17:27.560 --> 0:17:29.719
<v Speaker 5>can have turkey, I can't have eggs, But that's just

0:17:29.720 --> 0:17:31.600
<v Speaker 5>for me. For other people.

0:17:31.400 --> 0:17:33.280
<v Speaker 2>There are, I'll make them.

0:17:33.640 --> 0:17:36.479
<v Speaker 1>I still make them breakfast sometimes if they come over early,

0:17:36.920 --> 0:17:40.159
<v Speaker 1>because they still love their dad's breakfast ever since they

0:17:40.160 --> 0:17:40.600
<v Speaker 1>were young.

0:17:40.640 --> 0:17:43.960
<v Speaker 2>I'd make breakfast for them, yeah, because they get with justice.

0:17:44.400 --> 0:17:48.119
<v Speaker 1>I'd make bacon, I'd make pancakes, I'd make all all

0:17:48.160 --> 0:17:50.359
<v Speaker 1>the crap that you never want to eat. Although I

0:17:50.560 --> 0:17:54.040
<v Speaker 1>want to breakfast with us. I always insist that they

0:17:54.160 --> 0:17:58.240
<v Speaker 1>use pure maple syrup. You know when the last time

0:17:58.280 --> 0:18:02.200
<v Speaker 1>I've ever had pancakes or French toast, which I used

0:18:02.240 --> 0:18:06.280
<v Speaker 1>to love. I can't even remember how long ago it's been.

0:18:06.520 --> 0:18:08.000
<v Speaker 5>You can't eat it or you don't want to.

0:18:08.280 --> 0:18:11.040
<v Speaker 1>No, I really can't remember it because I don't eat crap.

0:18:11.400 --> 0:18:13.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't think I eat eggs.

0:18:14.040 --> 0:18:14.199
<v Speaker 4>You know.

0:18:14.240 --> 0:18:18.239
<v Speaker 1>Occasionally I'll have a soup, you know, and even if

0:18:18.280 --> 0:18:20.280
<v Speaker 1>I like, order a soup just to taste, to see

0:18:20.280 --> 0:18:22.600
<v Speaker 1>what it tastes like. I'm always I'm always interested if

0:18:22.600 --> 0:18:25.240
<v Speaker 1>people make a good soup, and I'll try it a

0:18:25.240 --> 0:18:27.280
<v Speaker 1>little bit. But then I just I'm not I'm not

0:18:27.400 --> 0:18:29.399
<v Speaker 1>eating enough of it that it could impact me anyway.

0:18:29.680 --> 0:18:32.080
<v Speaker 5>Well, I guess you're happy. I guess we'll tie in

0:18:32.119 --> 0:18:35.800
<v Speaker 5>another sponsor because Grainberry has pancake and muffin mix, so

0:18:35.840 --> 0:18:36.840
<v Speaker 5>I guess you can eat that now.

0:18:37.040 --> 0:18:39.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't eat pancakes, though I like the Grainberry cereal,

0:18:40.480 --> 0:18:43.800
<v Speaker 1>but I don't. But and I like silver palapasta. See us,

0:18:44.160 --> 0:18:48.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna say it like you okay, vyome vi iome

<v Speaker 1>You don't like I call you out because I love

<v Speaker 1>it you for years. I've been telling you for years,

0:19:05.000 --> 0:19:08.840
<v Speaker 1>and it comes back. Sean was right, Okay.

0:19:08.600 --> 0:19:11.399
<v Speaker 5>I have to tell you. The line in the volume

0:19:11.520 --> 0:19:14.960
<v Speaker 5>test did not say line forty seven. Sewan Hannity was right,

0:19:15.040 --> 0:19:16.080
<v Speaker 5>it said eat mores.

0:19:16.160 --> 0:19:19.879
<v Speaker 1>They didn't know about that part, but if they were

0:19:19.920 --> 0:19:23.560
<v Speaker 1>aware of this conversation, I have a new hero. So

0:19:23.640 --> 0:19:26.479
<v Speaker 1>there's this guy, Ken Griffin. I don't know him, I

0:19:26.560 --> 0:19:32.000
<v Speaker 1>never met him. He's a multi multi billionaire. He runs Citadel.

0:19:32.520 --> 0:19:35.840
<v Speaker 1>He's moved his entire operation now down to Florida, although

0:19:36.000 --> 0:19:39.240
<v Speaker 1>he was going to spend six billion dollars and keep

0:19:39.640 --> 0:19:44.480
<v Speaker 1>a place in New York. And then zoron Marxist Kami Mamdani.

0:19:45.240 --> 0:19:48.480
<v Speaker 1>Jack asked that he is, you know, does this film?

0:19:48.680 --> 0:19:50.600
<v Speaker 1>What did I tell you I'd do in the campaign?

0:19:50.680 --> 0:19:53.200
<v Speaker 1>Tax the rich. He also said he'd give your free busses. Sorry,

0:19:53.280 --> 0:19:57.720
<v Speaker 1>can't afford him, and he and he singled out Ken Griffin.

0:19:58.480 --> 0:20:02.520
<v Speaker 1>Ken Griffin was going to create thousands of high paying

0:20:02.640 --> 0:20:05.760
<v Speaker 1>jobs for people in New York, never mind the construction jobs,

0:20:05.760 --> 0:20:07.560
<v Speaker 1>because he was going to build that office space and

0:20:07.600 --> 0:20:10.359
<v Speaker 1>all this other stuff. I don't know, King Griffin. I

0:20:10.400 --> 0:20:13.520
<v Speaker 1>do know this. I have followed the real estate this

0:20:13.600 --> 0:20:16.920
<v Speaker 1>guy bias. Here's an interesting story in Palm Beach, Florida,

0:20:16.920 --> 0:20:21.760
<v Speaker 1>for example. This guy years ago goes up knocks on

0:20:21.880 --> 0:20:26.080
<v Speaker 1>the door of five people with ocean front estates in

0:20:26.800 --> 0:20:29.840
<v Speaker 1>Palm Beach, Florida. And by the way, I mean, the

0:20:29.880 --> 0:20:32.480
<v Speaker 1>prices of real estate in Florida, in Palm Beach are

0:20:32.680 --> 0:20:36.520
<v Speaker 1>absolutely insane. And when I tell you the prices, you're

0:20:36.520 --> 0:20:39.760
<v Speaker 1>gonna say that's nuts. And it is nuts. Donald Trump's

0:20:39.760 --> 0:20:41.960
<v Speaker 1>mar A Lago is worth one point five billion dollars.

0:20:42.000 --> 0:20:45.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you right now, twenty two acres on the ocean,

0:20:45.240 --> 0:20:48.080
<v Speaker 1>on the inner coastal. It's got a club associated, it's

0:20:48.119 --> 0:20:51.360
<v Speaker 1>a historic building, it's an impeccable shape whatever.

0:20:51.840 --> 0:20:54.560
<v Speaker 2>All right, So, Ken Griffin, did you you know the story?

0:20:54.640 --> 0:20:56.040
<v Speaker 2>If you do, stop.

0:20:55.920 --> 0:20:58.080
<v Speaker 5>I actually don't know this story.

0:20:58.160 --> 0:20:58.880
<v Speaker 2>He knocks on.

0:20:58.880 --> 0:21:02.560
<v Speaker 1>The door of five people in Palm Beach, Florida that

0:21:02.640 --> 0:21:06.919
<v Speaker 1>have mansions on the ocean. He offers them. At the time,

0:21:07.359 --> 0:21:11.920
<v Speaker 1>maybe those homes were worth fifty million dollars each. He

0:21:12.000 --> 0:21:16.199
<v Speaker 1>offers all of them one hundred million dollars. Now somebody

0:21:16.280 --> 0:21:19.199
<v Speaker 1>knocks on my door and wants to offer me twice

0:21:19.280 --> 0:21:22.359
<v Speaker 1>what my home is really worse. I'm taking the money

0:21:22.440 --> 0:21:26.439
<v Speaker 1>and I'm moving. I'm like, hell yeah, right, smart smart

0:21:26.480 --> 0:21:29.840
<v Speaker 1>on his part. But he wanted the property. All five

0:21:30.000 --> 0:21:33.080
<v Speaker 1>homeowners said yes, and now it's right down the block

0:21:33.080 --> 0:21:34.800
<v Speaker 1>for mar A Lago. That's why I'm aware of it.

0:21:35.080 --> 0:21:37.199
<v Speaker 1>And I don't go to mar Alago. I haven't been

0:21:37.200 --> 0:21:37.760
<v Speaker 1>there all year.

0:21:37.800 --> 0:21:38.120
<v Speaker 2>I don't.

0:21:38.520 --> 0:21:40.440
<v Speaker 1>I very rarely go. I was there once. I was

0:21:40.480 --> 0:21:42.480
<v Speaker 1>there for a wedding. People say, you hang out with

0:21:42.520 --> 0:21:44.200
<v Speaker 1>the president. No, I don't hang out with the president

0:21:44.240 --> 0:21:47.720
<v Speaker 1>all the time. He invites me, but you know, I'm busy.

0:21:47.720 --> 0:21:49.600
<v Speaker 1>I've got work to do. I've got kids, i got family,

0:21:49.640 --> 0:21:52.480
<v Speaker 1>I got all this stuff going on. So Ken Griffin

0:21:52.680 --> 0:21:55.840
<v Speaker 1>is now building this huge estate down the block for

0:21:55.960 --> 0:21:59.600
<v Speaker 1>mar Alago. I mean, it's it's pretty fascinating. On He's

0:21:59.640 --> 0:22:02.119
<v Speaker 1>done this same thing down in Miami. He's spent a

0:22:02.440 --> 0:22:07.400
<v Speaker 1>He's spending a fortune on real estate in Miami, surrounding areas.

0:22:07.480 --> 0:22:10.720
<v Speaker 1>Billionaire's Road down there. Whatever you call a coconut grove,

0:22:10.800 --> 0:22:12.800
<v Speaker 1>I think, I don't. I just don't really follow it.

0:22:13.240 --> 0:22:16.480
<v Speaker 1>So Mam Donnie takes this shot at him. He's got

0:22:16.520 --> 0:22:20.600
<v Speaker 1>like a two hundred million plus dollar penthouse in New

0:22:20.680 --> 0:22:24.440
<v Speaker 1>York City overlooking Central Park on Fifth Avenue, and Mam

0:22:24.520 --> 0:22:27.320
<v Speaker 1>Donnie goes and does this commercial how he's going to

0:22:27.400 --> 0:22:29.719
<v Speaker 1>tax the rich and he doesn't live here anyway, and

0:22:29.760 --> 0:22:32.680
<v Speaker 1>he's going to pay more because he's rich, and I'm

0:22:32.720 --> 0:22:38.760
<v Speaker 1>taking his money. Well, Ken Griffin responds and he says,

0:22:38.840 --> 0:22:42.360
<v Speaker 1>Mamdanti made it clear we need to double down on

0:22:42.359 --> 0:22:45.880
<v Speaker 1>our bet in Miami, which I think is awesome because,

0:22:46.480 --> 0:22:49.320
<v Speaker 1>as I've been telling you, Wall Street South is very real,

0:22:49.800 --> 0:22:51.840
<v Speaker 1>and that goes all the way from Miami, all the

0:22:51.840 --> 0:22:54.320
<v Speaker 1>way up the coast, the east coast of Florida to

0:22:54.840 --> 0:22:58.760
<v Speaker 1>West Palm Beach, and it's they're doing great. Every big

0:22:58.800 --> 0:23:02.360
<v Speaker 1>private equity company, investment firm, every big bank. They got

0:23:02.400 --> 0:23:04.640
<v Speaker 1>more people here than they do on Wall Street. Here's

0:23:04.680 --> 0:23:05.600
<v Speaker 1>what he said, So.

0:23:05.560 --> 0:23:07.000
<v Speaker 2>Where does that leave us at three to fifty?

0:23:07.040 --> 0:23:09.520
<v Speaker 7>Part that leaves us with the fact that we went

0:23:09.600 --> 0:23:12.239
<v Speaker 7>to Miami and revised our building plan to make it

0:23:12.440 --> 0:23:13.680
<v Speaker 7>a bigger office building.

0:23:14.080 --> 0:23:14.639
<v Speaker 2>You're bailing.

0:23:16.080 --> 0:23:19.040
<v Speaker 7>So what do we do with three fifties is still

0:23:19.080 --> 0:23:22.399
<v Speaker 7>a point of discussion internally. But what is no longer

0:23:22.400 --> 0:23:23.879
<v Speaker 7>a point of discussion is that.

0:23:23.760 --> 0:23:24.560
<v Speaker 4>Miami is now.

0:23:25.960 --> 0:23:28.440
<v Speaker 7>You know, when we moved from Chicago, there was a

0:23:28.480 --> 0:23:34.320
<v Speaker 7>debate between New York and Miami. It's unquestionably true that

0:23:34.359 --> 0:23:36.760
<v Speaker 7>we made the right choice. I'll leave it at that.

0:23:36.920 --> 0:23:38.879
<v Speaker 7>It's unquestionably true that we made.

0:23:38.720 --> 0:23:39.399
<v Speaker 4>The right choice.

0:23:39.880 --> 0:23:42.360
<v Speaker 7>And now and now, what the Mayor of New York

0:23:42.400 --> 0:23:44.919
<v Speaker 7>has made clear to my partners, and principally my New

0:23:45.000 --> 0:23:48.680
<v Speaker 7>York partners, my New York partners, is that we need

0:23:48.720 --> 0:23:51.480
<v Speaker 7>to double down on our bet in Miami because we

0:23:51.520 --> 0:23:56.360
<v Speaker 7>want to be in a state that embraces that embraces business,

0:23:56.920 --> 0:24:02.959
<v Speaker 7>that embraces education, that embraces personal freedom and liberty, and

0:24:03.000 --> 0:24:07.040
<v Speaker 7>that embraces people having an opportunity to live the American dream.

0:24:07.960 --> 0:24:11.520
<v Speaker 1>Then he went a little further. He said, Mom, Donnie

0:24:11.640 --> 0:24:15.400
<v Speaker 1>taxed the rich. This video outside of his apartment was creepy,

0:24:16.320 --> 0:24:20.560
<v Speaker 1>and he's not wrong. This idiot mayor pretty much put

0:24:20.560 --> 0:24:24.560
<v Speaker 1>a target on this guy and told the entire city

0:24:24.560 --> 0:24:27.560
<v Speaker 1>of New York, with every lunatic that lives there, that

0:24:27.600 --> 0:24:31.400
<v Speaker 1>this is where Ken Griffin, multi billionaire, lives.

0:24:31.840 --> 0:24:34.880
<v Speaker 7>So how did you feel about the mayor's little video?

0:24:37.720 --> 0:24:40.800
<v Speaker 2>It was creeping weird agreed.

0:24:41.119 --> 0:24:44.560
<v Speaker 7>I mean like knock knock, knock on the window, like huh,

0:24:46.080 --> 0:24:48.880
<v Speaker 7>Mayor of New York City on the screen, like.

0:24:48.920 --> 0:24:51.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, how many times have you watched that video?

0:24:51.480 --> 0:24:52.640
<v Speaker 4>Three? Three?

0:24:53.440 --> 0:24:57.520
<v Speaker 7>I couldn't help myself what I had to go back

0:24:57.520 --> 0:24:59.560
<v Speaker 7>and look at it again. I mean like you literally

0:24:59.560 --> 0:25:01.560
<v Speaker 7>look at the for time You're like you gotta be

0:25:01.640 --> 0:25:04.160
<v Speaker 7>kidding me, okay, and then.

0:25:04.080 --> 0:25:05.440
<v Speaker 2>The second time you're like, you know what this is?

0:25:05.480 --> 0:25:08.800
<v Speaker 7>Actually, this has gone from creepy to actually not really creepy.

0:25:08.800 --> 0:25:11.399
<v Speaker 7>This has gone frightening because you know, the CEO of

0:25:11.480 --> 0:25:13.760
<v Speaker 7>United Healthcare was killed just a few blocks from my house,

0:25:14.680 --> 0:25:20.160
<v Speaker 7>and anything that creates like an agitation in the extremist

0:25:20.520 --> 0:25:23.240
<v Speaker 7>on either side of the aisle is a frightening dynamic.

0:25:23.520 --> 0:25:23.639
<v Speaker 4>Now.

0:25:23.680 --> 0:25:27.240
<v Speaker 1>I think it's really honestly, if anything ever happened to

0:25:27.280 --> 0:25:29.840
<v Speaker 1>this guy, and I pray to God nothing happens to anybody,

0:25:30.840 --> 0:25:33.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean I would blame Mantani. What the hell is

0:25:33.359 --> 0:25:36.359
<v Speaker 1>he doing? What is your What is that stupid Mayor

0:25:36.400 --> 0:25:39.600
<v Speaker 1>of New York doing? Why would he single out a

0:25:39.600 --> 0:25:42.600
<v Speaker 1>guy that was going to spend six billion dollars? Good,

0:25:42.680 --> 0:25:46.600
<v Speaker 1>now he's going to spend it in Florida Governor DeSantis

0:25:46.680 --> 0:25:49.959
<v Speaker 1>is very happy about it. I'm good for Governor DeSantis.

0:25:51.000 --> 0:25:53.800
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's get to our busy phones. Doug in Oregon. Doug,

0:25:53.840 --> 0:25:55.120
<v Speaker 1>you're on the Sean Hannity Show.

0:25:56.920 --> 0:25:59.800
<v Speaker 2>Kind sir, what's going on. I'm glad you called.

0:26:00.560 --> 0:26:03.280
<v Speaker 4>Well. I had a couple of questions about, you know,

0:26:03.320 --> 0:26:06.280
<v Speaker 4>the Iran deal. Maybe he's more of an opinion from you.

0:26:07.520 --> 0:26:09.479
<v Speaker 4>I kind of think we should have gone in there,

0:26:09.640 --> 0:26:11.800
<v Speaker 4>you know, in seventy nine when they took our hostages

0:26:11.840 --> 0:26:16.080
<v Speaker 4>and they've declared war on us several times. And we

0:26:16.200 --> 0:26:18.119
<v Speaker 4>are going to comment on the fuel prices too and

0:26:18.200 --> 0:26:20.720
<v Speaker 4>kind of correlate them. I started to see the fuel

0:26:20.760 --> 0:26:23.159
<v Speaker 4>price go before you went into Iran. You noticed that

0:26:23.320 --> 0:26:24.120
<v Speaker 4>back Easter.

0:26:25.800 --> 0:26:29.199
<v Speaker 1>Fuel prices were actually going down. This is going to

0:26:29.240 --> 0:26:31.439
<v Speaker 1>be a short term problem. And by the way, I

0:26:31.480 --> 0:26:36.040
<v Speaker 1>am not I am not rationalizing this, except to say

0:26:36.760 --> 0:26:41.560
<v Speaker 1>what Marco Rubio said yesterday is true. If Iran ever

0:26:41.600 --> 0:26:46.760
<v Speaker 1>got nuclear weapons, and everybody that would know within the administration,

0:26:47.040 --> 0:26:50.879
<v Speaker 1>intel community, et cetera, is all confirmed to me that

0:26:50.960 --> 0:26:55.000
<v Speaker 1>the quote the president had no choice, then they would

0:26:55.040 --> 0:26:57.600
<v Speaker 1>be able to dictate the price of a barrel of

0:26:57.680 --> 0:27:02.200
<v Speaker 1>oil forever if they had nuclear weapons. So we're ridding

0:27:02.240 --> 0:27:06.040
<v Speaker 1>the world of that, of that death threat and of

0:27:06.080 --> 0:27:10.600
<v Speaker 1>their control over world markets and perpetuity.

0:27:11.400 --> 0:27:13.320
<v Speaker 2>A good point that Marco made.

0:27:13.680 --> 0:27:17.119
<v Speaker 4>Well, I'm glad that Trump did what he did. I

0:27:17.640 --> 0:27:19.000
<v Speaker 4>kind of wish Reagan had done it.

0:27:20.119 --> 0:27:22.640
<v Speaker 1>Well, really the people that should have done it, I mean,

0:27:22.720 --> 0:27:27.680
<v Speaker 1>after the well, remember the day Reagan was inaugurated is

0:27:27.720 --> 0:27:29.960
<v Speaker 1>the day the hostages were released that were held for

0:27:30.000 --> 0:27:34.320
<v Speaker 1>four hundred and forty four days. You know, they weren't

0:27:34.480 --> 0:27:39.280
<v Speaker 1>that well, you're talking probably about Beirut in nineteen eighty three,

0:27:39.640 --> 0:27:45.440
<v Speaker 1>but really it was people like the Clinton's, Obama others.

0:27:46.280 --> 0:27:49.040
<v Speaker 1>Bush I think was a little distracted with other conflicts

0:27:49.080 --> 0:27:53.800
<v Speaker 1>in the region. Certainly Obama putting you know, cargo planes

0:27:53.800 --> 0:27:56.840
<v Speaker 1>with cash and other currency and you know, providing the

0:27:56.920 --> 0:28:00.240
<v Speaker 1>money to fullment terror and build out the blist in

0:28:00.359 --> 0:28:04.120
<v Speaker 1>nuclear systems was one of the dumbest decisions ever made,

0:28:05.160 --> 0:28:07.720
<v Speaker 1>and they put them in this position. But thankfully the

0:28:07.760 --> 0:28:11.280
<v Speaker 1>Trump President Trump has taken away that threat. This will

0:28:11.280 --> 0:28:14.480
<v Speaker 1>come to an end, and when it does, I'm sure

0:28:14.520 --> 0:28:16.760
<v Speaker 1>he won't get the credit he deserves. Unfortunately.

0:28:17.560 --> 0:28:19.840
<v Speaker 2>Anyway, I appreciate the call, my friend Thank you. Eight.

0:28:42.320 --> 0:28:45.320
<v Speaker 1>That's gonna wrapt things up at today Hannity Tonight, nine
