1 00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:02,920 Speaker 1: An hour or two Sean Hannity Show toll free. It's 2 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:04,880 Speaker 1: eight hundred and ninety four one sewn of who want 3 00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:09,200 Speaker 1: to be a part of the program. So if you remember, 4 00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:12,560 Speaker 1: you recall now we have five separate locations, some in 5 00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:16,040 Speaker 1: the same house, but the Rehobeth home now has been 6 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:20,280 Speaker 1: in fact searched. One article today that the FBI, in 7 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:22,640 Speaker 1: conjunction with Mike pens they're going to search his home. 8 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 1: Now the question is do they have any residents, other 9 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,560 Speaker 1: residents or the University at Delaware where they have this 10 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:32,839 Speaker 1: trove of documents. When is that going to be searched? 11 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:37,080 Speaker 1: Because Biden takes classified documents very, very seriously. That's what 12 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 1: they told us as he was condemning Donald Trump when 13 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,840 Speaker 1: they found documents at Mara Lago after they rated Mara Lago, 14 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:46,879 Speaker 1: something they have not done to Joe Biden up to 15 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 1: this point. People know I take classified day documents a 16 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 1: class art information. Seriously. I'm going to say this, the 17 00:00:55,440 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: President takes classified information seriously. You heard that directly from him, 18 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,639 Speaker 1: to classify documents seriously. You heard that directly from him 19 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 1: last week. But first I'm going to repeat what I've 20 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 1: just said moments ago he takes this very seriously when 21 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,959 Speaker 1: it comes to classified documents. When it comes to classified information, 22 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 1: he was unaware so as it relates to classified documents, 23 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: information at which the President takes very, very seriously, and 24 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 1: you heard him speak to it when he was asked 25 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: by your colleagues yesterday when he was traveling in California. 26 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 1: But I will reiterate from here that and basically what 27 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: he said to all of you many times at this 28 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:37,039 Speaker 1: point that he does indeed take classified information and seriously. 29 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 1: He does indeed take classified documents seriously. Obviously the President 30 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,399 Speaker 1: you've heard Green say, he takes the treatment of classified 31 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 1: material seriously. I can assure you that everybody here does. 32 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 1: To look. I think you've heard the President speak to this. 33 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: You've heard the president's personal attorneys speak to this. The 34 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: President takes this seriously. And that's why he's fully cooperating 35 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 1: with the Department of Justice. He's offering total cooperation with 36 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: the Justice Department as this proceeds. And that's because of 37 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 1: an important reason. He takes this seriously. He takes classified 38 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 1: information seriously. But as I said earlier this week, people 39 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: know I take classified documents and classified materials seriously. I 40 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: also said, we're cooperative fully completely the Justice Partner's review. Anyway, 41 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,239 Speaker 1: if you didn't hear Joe Biden takes classified documents seriously. 42 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: At least that's what they keep telling us over and 43 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: over and over and over again. But yet they keep 44 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 1: having more instances of these classified materials showing up in 45 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: varying locations. Ari Fleischer, former White House Press Secretary to 46 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: President George W. Bush, also the author of the bestseller Suppression, Deception, Snobbery, 47 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: and Bias, and Why the Press Gets so Much wrong. 48 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 1: Did you know they took it very seriously the issue 49 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: of classified documents? Yeah, I've heard him say that, by 50 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: the way you've done this job. Did you ever find 51 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: yourself in a position that that's all you could say? Yes, 52 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: but you don't do it the way she does it. 53 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: Times that you're you're just you're you're stuck, and you 54 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: can't say this, You can't say that Counsel's office wigs in, 55 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: but you don't say in the same monotonous tone of voice, 56 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: So everything just sounds like you're a talking point. You know, 57 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: there's just ways to be clever, dance on your feet 58 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: a little. I have a little sympathy for her but 59 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 1: there's other ways to do it. But but Sean, at 60 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: its core, what this comes down to his punctuation. When 61 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: Joe Biden says he takes classified documents seriously, he meant 62 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: to put the period after I take classified documents period correct, 63 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: and so he did, and he was so harsh in 64 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: his condemnation of Donald Trump. That's the great irony in 65 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: this whole story, right, is that you know, mar Lago 66 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: gets rated. And this is what I don't understand when 67 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 1: I listen to liberal commentators and read liberal publications, it's 68 00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 1: all the same thing. Well, well, Joe Biden was always cooperating. Okay, 69 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: if that's true, why as nobody ever had access to 70 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: the trope of documents at the University of Delaware. Secondly, 71 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: Donald Trump was cooperating. How do we know that? We 72 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 1: know that because the FBI had unfettered access prior to 73 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 1: the raid and they were in the very storage room 74 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 1: where eventually during the raid that some classified materials were found. 75 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,839 Speaker 1: And then they requested and I just got this information yesterday, 76 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: they had really had a padlock on that door. They 77 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 1: requested a second won't be put on the door. This 78 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: I just learned from my source yesterday, so the FBI 79 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: was there. They could have taken things that day. I 80 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: imagine if they said no, this has to come with us, 81 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody would have objected. But they called back, 82 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 1: They asked for a padlock to be put on the door. 83 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,280 Speaker 1: What gave Merrick Garland and Christopher Ray the impression that 84 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: they wouldn't further cooperate when they had cooperated all the 85 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: way up to that point. Well, if you believe reporting, 86 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 1: they did say that there was a subpoena issue for 87 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: the Trump documents, and he didn't comply with the subpoena, 88 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,479 Speaker 1: and that's what led to the raid. Now, I do 89 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 1: think if you get a subpoena, you need to comply. 90 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 1: If you find out you have classified documents in your basement, 91 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 1: you return them. You return them immediately, with no questions asked. 92 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: That's what President Trump should have done. That does not 93 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: excuse the excuse the FBI coming in with guns blazing, 94 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: circling Mara Lago, pictures of armed FBI agents on the streets, 95 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: and then they're selective leaking of photos of the documents 96 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 1: of Trump. You don't see any of that with Joe Biden, 97 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: Dooey and It doesn't matter if you're cooperating or not. 98 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 1: The tactics the FBI uses are a non dangerous situation 99 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 1: should be identical between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, and 100 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: they weren't. The Justice Department went in guns ablazing, cameras 101 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: ablazing for Donald Trump. No similar treatment for Joe Biden. 102 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: So when you are press secretary, instead of just regurgitating 103 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,919 Speaker 1: the same line, he takes classified documents seriously. Did you 104 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: ever find yourself looking for other ways and writing down 105 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: a list of ways to basically say the same thing. Yeah, 106 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 1: I mean I didn't need to write them down. I 107 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 1: kind of had him in my head. Look what I 108 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,039 Speaker 1: would what I would have done here if I was 109 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: Karen Jean Pierre, I would have said, look, guys, this 110 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 1: is a criminal investigation. And when there's a criminal investigation, 111 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: lawyers will tell you if you talk to anybody inside 112 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:21,599 Speaker 1: the White House to figure out what's going on, you 113 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 1: just make yourself a witness. And when you've become a 114 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: witness in Washington, that means you've got to get a thousand, 115 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: two thousand dollars an hour, lawyers. I'm not going down 116 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: that road, guys. So there is this nothing on this 117 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 1: story I can help you with. That's why you got 118 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 1: to talk to the Council's office. Sorry, but my duties 119 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: a press sectory end when there's a criminal probe. I 120 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 1: cannot be your inquisitor, reporters. You got to do it 121 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,720 Speaker 1: on your own. Let's talk a little bit. Kevin McCarthy 122 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,479 Speaker 1: on my show last night, and this is the challenge 123 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: that he has. He met with Biden for an hour yesterday. 124 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 1: We don't really have a pending debt ceiling problem, that 125 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 1: this is something that would be a problem come May, June, July, 126 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 1: somewhere in that timeframe. So there's plenty of time for 127 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: Republicans to organize. And what I said, the reason that 128 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: Joe Biden initially said he wouldn't negotiate, I believe that 129 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: the Democrats are calculating that, in fact, Republicans won't unite 130 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: behind a single plan and demand in exchange for the 131 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 1: debt ceiling that they get spending cuts, concessions or border 132 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: concessions to secure our border, whatever it is that they 133 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: all agree on. In other words, Kevin McCarthy's task is 134 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: to take his slim majority, get all two and twenty 135 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: two Republicans on board and committed to their ask, then 136 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: they've got to present it to the White House with 137 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: unflinching calmness and conviction. And then as time goes on, 138 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 1: the White House has to understand that they're standing up 139 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: for their principles and they will not raise the debt 140 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 1: ceiling unless something is done safe. For example, I would 141 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: like to see it done on spending. Do you believe 142 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: Kevin McCarthy can achieve that? That is not? It's not 143 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: an easy lift, are you? You know Washington as well 144 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: as anybody with a five vote majority on something as 145 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: sensitive as spending priorities and especially if you exempt social 146 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 1: Security and medicare as, you must the only other place 147 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 1: to get the money is going to be defense. So 148 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 1: I don't see how Republicans get their ducks in a 149 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: row to be the sincere party of spending. What if 150 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 1: you forget defense and you take discretionary spending, but not 151 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 1: only do you stop rate or growth increases. However, you 152 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 1: know you have cuts across the board that that could 153 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 1: be a significant amount. It could be a significant amount. 154 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 1: But if they try to do it to balance the 155 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 1: budget versus on domestic discretionary only, they're going to lose 156 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: the votes. They're going to lose a lot of the 157 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,840 Speaker 1: moderate members. That's the problem with having a five vote majority. 158 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 1: And don't forget Sean. Whatever Kevin does, even if he 159 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 1: has unity in the House to cut spending, which I 160 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 1: hope they do, they got to get through the Senate too. 161 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: Otherwise it's an idle threat to Joe Biden. Well, is it, 162 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: because if they had not going to vote to raise 163 00:08:57,880 --> 00:08:59,679 Speaker 1: the debt ceiling the Senate, we'll just be able to 164 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: do it along with Joe Biden. I don't think that's 165 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 1: how it works. Here's what scared me on the debt ceiling. 166 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: I think that the Democrats believe that they can hammer 167 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 1: Republicans into submission, and they're probably right. This is where 168 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: I'm betting the other way. Now. I'm taking the long 169 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,719 Speaker 1: shot here. I am going to bet that somehow, some 170 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: way they will unite behind the plan and that they 171 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 1: will hold their ground. And in spite of what you 172 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 1: and I both know will be said, the full faith 173 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,679 Speaker 1: and credit of the United States government is hanging in 174 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: the balance. And in spite of that, if their request 175 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,679 Speaker 1: is reasonable and they can show the American people with 176 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: over thirty one trillion dollars in debt, that we need 177 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 1: some fiscal responsibility and convince them that what they're asking 178 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: for is reasonable. I think they can win that debate 179 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: up to a point. Sean. The problem is, let's say 180 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 1: they come out with one hundred billion dollars of good 181 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 1: spending cuts and then the Senate sits on it, which 182 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: is what Chuck Schumer will do because Democrat the Senate 183 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: don't want to cut a penny. Nothing's threatening Joe Biden, 184 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: nothing's coming to his desk that he would have to vetell. 185 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: So Biden can play foot loose and says, you know 186 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 1: it's reasonable and might be able to go along with that, 187 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,080 Speaker 1: but you know, if the Senate doesn't pass it, we 188 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: can't let the United States to fall, Okay, and Republicans 189 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: and media figures like myself will be playing Biden over 190 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: and over again saying he won't negotiate and will compare 191 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: it to Joe Biden, and I played it last night 192 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 1: on TV, and I played it on this radio show 193 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 1: a number of times. Joe Biden in twenty eleven was 194 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 1: very critical of My Way or the highway mentality, and said, 195 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,839 Speaker 1: you must negotiate on the issue of this very issue 196 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 1: of the debt ceiling. All good points, at fair points. 197 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 1: But I still believe Sean, based on my history of 198 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: watching Washington, when it comes push comes to show on 199 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: debt limit, Republicans will fold. So you're saying that the 200 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: big difference between a Republican majority and a Democratic majority 201 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:59,080 Speaker 1: is the Democrats don't fold, because that's what it sounds like. 202 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: And I will tell you this, Sean, this is going 203 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 1: to be a real test of Kevin McCarthy's leadership skills. 204 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 1: This is going to be a moment where he's going 205 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 1: to have to, you know, get all of these varying 206 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 1: factions in the House. You know, the Tuesday Group, the 207 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: Sunday Group, the Study Group, the Freedom Caucus, all of 208 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 1: them together united on what their ask is. It's got 209 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 1: to be reasonable. They got to bring their case to 210 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: the American people, and then they got to hold the 211 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 1: line and not butch and modern history says that's not 212 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 1: the Republican party anymore. The Democrats amazingly have become a 213 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 1: party of unity and Republicans are fractured on these big issues. 214 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 1: So that's where their five old majorities were still able 215 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 1: to pass big spending bills in the House, not as 216 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:47,199 Speaker 1: big as they wanted AOC and the squad made noises, 217 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: but at the end of the day they all got 218 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: in line. What about twenty eleven when Republicans were able 219 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 1: to negotiate out a deficit reduction plan that included sequestration, 220 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 1: That would be a good result to do again here, 221 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: but again it would hit defense. That's the problem of questration, 222 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 1: which was the only time in my lifetime there were actual, 223 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: real cuts, not just slow down the rate of growth, 224 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 1: but those actual meaningful cuts in domestic spending was matched 225 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 1: by equivalent cuts to the Defense Department, and that made 226 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: us a weaker military. Quick break right back more with 227 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,079 Speaker 1: Ari Fleischer on the other side. Then we'll get to 228 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 1: your calls. Eight hundred and nine for one, Shawn our 229 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 1: number if you want to be a part of the program. 230 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 1: We continue. Ari Fleischer is with us. As we continue, 231 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 1: Let's talk look at this through a political prism. Here, 232 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: assuming Republicans are standing firm on reckless spending, record high debt, 233 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: and they're saying, we can't do this anymore to our 234 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 1: kids and grandkids. We will increase the debt ceiling, but 235 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: you have to guarantee these cuts. As soon as you 236 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 1: guarantee the cuts and stop robbing from our children and grandchildren. 237 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: We will go along with your debt ceiling increase so 238 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: as to fulfill our debt obligations as is imperative for 239 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,599 Speaker 1: the country. Absolutely, that's the way to do it. You 240 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 1: two track it. You come up with what your spending 241 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 1: cuts are, then you know Biden will demagogue it. But 242 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: the first test, and there comes by April fifteenth. Can 243 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,319 Speaker 1: Congressman Jody Arranton, the chairman of the House Budget Committee, 244 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 1: come up with a budget resolution on time that shows 245 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 1: what path to those cuts? And when he does, Katie 246 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 1: bar the door will be right back in the usual 247 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: pattern of Democrats demagoguing. It's saying the poor will suffer, 248 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 1: elderly will get thrown off a cliff, and that will 249 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 1: be the test of unity for Republicans. If Republicans can 250 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: pass that budget resolution to do that by April fifteenth, 251 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 1: then Sean, we're onto a two track process. You better 252 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 1: make these cuts, Joe Biden, otherwise we don't give you 253 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: support on it. Now, why do I feel like I 254 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,200 Speaker 1: spent the majority of this interview with you disagreeing with me, 255 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: and now I feel like you're agreeing with me. Well, 256 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: I'm being the political realist saying I just don't think 257 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 1: Republicans have the unity to do it, and that's because 258 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 1: I've watched it too many times in recent years with 259 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,320 Speaker 1: the Republican fractures speak larger than the unity. I have 260 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 1: watched and witnessed all of the above with you, and 261 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 1: I've seen it. However, something is different this time. I 262 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: think the mood of the country, and I'm also looking 263 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: at poll numbers. I think when people hear thirty one 264 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: trillion dollars in debt that we're putting our kids and grandkids, 265 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: that is a powerful argument. And there's nobody in the 266 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 1: country that wouldn't want waste, fraud, abuse, corruption, earmarks like 267 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 1: in the last Omnibus bill, you know, put on our 268 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 1: kids and grandkids. I don't see that it's a good 269 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: test for the modern Republican party. But you know what, 270 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 1: under Donald Trump and Republicans, really we stopped being the 271 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: party of fiscal discipline, We stopped being the party that 272 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: really cared about these things. Well, we had record growth 273 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 1: up until COVID. COVID was a game changer. COVID work 274 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: game changer, no question about it. But Donald Trump was 275 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: the one said better care so security off limits. Republicans 276 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 1: were the kind of the stern uncle party of spending 277 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: discipline that no one wants to listen to. But it 278 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: was the right, good thing for the nation. We've gotten 279 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 1: away from that in politics. Hey, listen, the last time 280 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 1: we balanced the budget, New king Ridge was speaker. So 281 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 1: that goes for every administration, doesn't it. That's correct? All right? 282 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: Are we always appreciate you being with us? Eight hundred 283 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 1: and nine for one, Shawn our number if you want 284 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: to be a part of the program. Where do you 285 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 1: hear the story about the wok agenda? There? Smithsonian National 286 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: Air and Space Museum. They kicked out a dozen Catholic 287 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 1: high school students and their chaperones. Why because they're wearing 288 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: hats with a pro life message. They'll join us. Coming up, 289 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to John and Florida. John, how 290 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 1: are you glad you called? How are you my friend? 291 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 1: I'm good, sir. What's going on? Doing great? Just living 292 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: in free Florida and waiting to see when you're going 293 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: to move down here soon? I hope soon. I'm trying 294 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 1: my best. There's a lot of obstacles, but I'm trying. 295 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: All right. Well, it's sunny weather. It's eighty one degrees 296 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 1: right now, and come on, we're waiting for you, all right. 297 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 1: But I wanted to share one thing, and I think 298 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 1: a lot of the American public feels, is say, the 299 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: frustration level of the double standard of the way they 300 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 1: treat a president who had the authority to unclassified documents 301 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: and had the full right to do so, and they 302 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: make that into a crime. And then the double standard 303 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 1: of the way they treat again the bidens but here. 304 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 1: And then one more thing, and by the way, that 305 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 1: the same goes for Hillary Clinton too. She got preferential treatment, 306 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 1: no prosecute or whatever prosecute you might recall, absolutely. And 307 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: then one more thing. I think this is called Operation 308 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 1: clean Up vacuum Cleaner by the CIA and the Department 309 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 1: of Justice, where they knew the Republicans were coming into office, 310 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: they were going to start the investigations, and they came 311 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 1: in and vacuumed up all the evidence. And now they 312 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: cannot disclose anything because everything is under investigation. You know something, 313 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. I just know this 314 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 1: is that I believe we have an FBI politicized and 315 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 1: adj weaponized. I want to hear from these whistleblower FBI agents, 316 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: which I believe we will be hearing from in the 317 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 1: next few months. I want to hear their stories and 318 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 1: understand why they believe what they believe and what evidence 319 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,960 Speaker 1: they might have to go along with it. Anyway, great, 320 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 1: call my friend eight hundred nine for one, Shawn. Our number. 321 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 1: Larry is in Pennsylvania, Larry High. How are you glad 322 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 1: you called Sean. It's an honor to be on your show. 323 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,120 Speaker 1: I've listened to you for years, and if you can 324 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: just give me a second to babble this out to you, 325 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:37,200 Speaker 1: this classified document thing with President Biden and former President Trump. 326 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 1: I would like to know, and I haven't heard anyone 327 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 1: ask whos he is actually in charge of packing this 328 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: stuff up, shipping it off to these former president's, vice president, senators, 329 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 1: and god only knows who else gets this stuff? And 330 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: why is no one being held accountable for allowing top 331 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:59,119 Speaker 1: secret documents to be removed from our national archives. It 332 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 1: should be under can Key at Forton Knox, you know. 333 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,159 Speaker 1: And then we just go on and on with all 334 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: these committees holding hearings and nothing ever gets resolved. You 335 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 1: got the January sixth committee, you got this classified document issue, 336 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 1: got the hundred laptop, the fake rush of collusion, you 337 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 1: got Clinton's server, you got ben Ghaisi, the Southern border 338 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:24,159 Speaker 1: wide open inflation, Biden bagging about getting the prosecutor in 339 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 1: Ukraine fired, and it just goes on and on. The 340 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 1: country is growing very, very weary of all these constant 341 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 1: distractions and committee investigations where nothing gets done, no one's 342 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,960 Speaker 1: ever held accountable, while the people that we elect to 343 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 1: do the job that they're elected to do is getting 344 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: put on the back burner while all this other nonsense 345 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,159 Speaker 1: is going on. And I just, you know, I actually 346 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: feel sorry for Trump even announcing that he's going to 347 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,399 Speaker 1: run again, because it's going to be another four years 348 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 1: of these guys just badgering him. But by the way, 349 00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 1: do you think it's going to be different if it's 350 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 1: any other Republican Because I don't. I do not believe 351 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 1: it will be any different. They're never going to stop 352 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 1: their nonsense until somebody gets to the bottom of this stuff. Well, 353 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 1: I mean, we had all the evidence that I think 354 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,679 Speaker 1: you could ever bring in the case of Russia collusion. 355 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 1: It's fascinating, you know, at this late date this week, 356 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 1: the Columbia, what is a journalism school comes out with 357 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 1: a study, in that study excoriating places like the New 358 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 1: York Times Washington Post. Then you've got Bob Woodward coming 359 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: out saying, I warned everybody at the Washington Post, don't 360 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 1: trust this Steele dossier. And he said nobody would listen 361 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 1: to me. And there I was here. I was on 362 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:40,640 Speaker 1: this radio program on TV every night with my ensemble 363 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 1: cast of Solomon and Sarah Carter and Greg Jarrett, and 364 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: I can't even mention everybody, and somebody will get offended, 365 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: and every night, every one of them and we got 366 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 1: it right. But yet the New York Times, the Columbia 367 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:58,439 Speaker 1: Review Journal just pointed out got pretty much everything wrong, 368 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: and they got Pulitzer prizes for it. Now, you know, 369 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 1: when we make mistakes, we have no problem coming on 370 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 1: the air and saying, you know what, got that wrong, 371 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,400 Speaker 1: We're sorry. That's it. I mean, occasionally, when you're doing 372 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,160 Speaker 1: a lot of research and information comes fast and furious, 373 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:18,119 Speaker 1: and even if you're citing other publications, you know what, 374 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 1: occasionally they're wrong, and then we do our best to 375 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: make sure vet it. We do a lot of vetting 376 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 1: on this program, a lot of vetting on TV. I mean, 377 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 1: the amount of research is voluminous. And the fact is 378 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,439 Speaker 1: is that we have a corrupt media establishment, and it 379 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 1: is most of the media. That's why I call them 380 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: the mob. They have a mob mentality, and you have corrupt, 381 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 1: you know, deep state actors in the upper echelons of 382 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,919 Speaker 1: our intelligence community, even the FBI. This needs to be 383 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 1: cleaned out. People that are not political need to be 384 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: put in those positions. People that will not weaponize justice, 385 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:58,199 Speaker 1: that truly believe in equal justice and equal application of 386 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:01,119 Speaker 1: our laws. They need to be in charge of the 387 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:05,159 Speaker 1: Department of Justice. I share your frustration, but it doesn't 388 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: mean we stop. I share your frustration, but you know 389 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: we've got to try. There's too much at stake here 390 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 1: for our kids and our grandkids. Just hang in this fight. 391 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,880 Speaker 1: I'm telling you something is about to break the damn 392 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: wide open. I can feel it. I've been doing this 393 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 1: a long time. I hope I'm right. Larry, Love you, man, 394 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 1: Appreciate the call. California. Steve Is on the Sean Hannity Show, Steve, 395 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,120 Speaker 1: how are you glad? You called them? Very good? Sean, 396 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,159 Speaker 1: God bless you. I pray for you every day. I 397 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 1: know you're sitting on a tip of the spear. And 398 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if i'd want to be sitting up 399 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 1: there with you anyway. Well, let me tell you, let 400 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 1: me give you an answer to that question. Probably not, 401 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: because it's every single day you're like, you know a 402 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,640 Speaker 1: lot more than you can tell us. I don't know why. 403 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 1: But by the way, there's some truth to that. I 404 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,439 Speaker 1: think there's a lot more than some truth anyway. Embrace. 405 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 1: But but I try to be as honest with my 406 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 1: audience as I can. And if I'm not saying it, 407 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 1: there's probably a legal reason why. I know. I feel 408 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,640 Speaker 1: like you're a governor on how fast the information goes 409 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:09,679 Speaker 1: on for our own good as well as yours. So 410 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 1: I understand that. Um embrace mail in voting. You tell 411 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 1: us to do that, and I yell at you sometimes 412 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:19,479 Speaker 1: like a brother, you know, like back and forth at 413 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 1: the radio. You say, mail in ballots. Embrace that harvesting 414 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 1: the ballots, you know, And I know we can do 415 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 1: that ballot for ballot with them, We can do it 416 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 1: better than them because we have integrity, We have a 417 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: desire to do things the right way, to do things 418 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: decently in order. But those guys, when we do that 419 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 1: ballot for ballot. What are we going to do when 420 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: we run out of all illegal ballots and they start 421 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 1: forging signators and dumping stacks. You got, you gotta be 422 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: able to prove it, and the evidence has to be 423 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: overwhelming and incontrovertible before anything would ever get done. But 424 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 1: you know, I will tell you one of my greatest 425 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:57,119 Speaker 1: disappointments about twenty twenty is I'll pick the state of 426 00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 1: Pennsylvania the state of Wisconsin. You know, read the four 427 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 1: three decision, the writing for the minority the Chief Justice 428 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 1: in Wisconsin, a beatdown of all beatdowns. How the state 429 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 1: didn't follow the laws of the state regarding elections. You know, 430 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 1: look at Pennsylvania has in their constitution, their state constitution 431 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:26,640 Speaker 1: very specific examples when people can vote by mail, and 432 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,360 Speaker 1: it was literally rather than go through the arduous process 433 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 1: as they should have constitutionally to change the constitution, they 434 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 1: just passed legislation that change voting completely in Pennsylvania, circumventing 435 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: their own constitution, and no court wanted to deal with it. 436 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 1: And to me, that is a travesty of justice. It 437 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 1: breaks my heart. Can I give you a suggestion? We 438 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:53,120 Speaker 1: had We had many Affidavid thousands of them given over 439 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:57,160 Speaker 1: that was ignored signed under the penalty of perjury. Yes, sir, 440 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 1: I know as a felony. But was going to ask you, 441 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:02,959 Speaker 1: is there any way you could bring one or two 442 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 1: of those people on a week and we could get 443 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 1: into how these guys get away with this episode We 444 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 1: are here that are working to Hey, you know what 445 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 1: we're looking at. Listen now we're going back two years 446 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 1: and I'm going to be very blunt with you. Okay, 447 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: this has been now litigated and discussed to the point nobody. 448 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 1: I am just telling you, generally speaking, I want to 449 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,199 Speaker 1: know more about it. You want to know more about it. 450 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:32,399 Speaker 1: But America elections are about the future, and I'm just 451 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 1: being real with you. I've done that, I've talked to 452 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: I call those people whistleblowers, by the way, and I 453 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 1: thought Democrats liked whistleblowers, but they only like them when 454 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 1: they work for them. So, unfortunately, we have to deal 455 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: now with the handware dealt. We have too much work 456 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 1: to do in order to bring as much integrity to 457 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 1: the process as possible. And by the way, this is 458 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 1: not my first choice. I'm just dealing with the reality 459 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 1: that states are not going to go to same day 460 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 1: voting paper ballots between now and November twenty twenty four, 461 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,360 Speaker 1: and if there was any chance that could happen, I'd 462 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 1: be fighting for that. That is going to have to 463 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 1: happen over time when governors, especially in swing states, you know, 464 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 1: take a bold stand and get the people in their 465 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 1: states to go along with them. But in the meantime, 466 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:21,199 Speaker 1: you know, we're fighting us. We have a system that 467 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 1: if we continue to fight against it, it's not gonna work. 468 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 1: So we've got to get rid of this reluctance and 469 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 1: resistance towards mail and balloting and early voting, and we've 470 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 1: got to get into the same business that Democrats are. 471 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 1: They don't shake hands, they don't kiss babies, they don't 472 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 1: do town halls, they don't want to even do debates, 473 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,199 Speaker 1: they don't do any of that. They run negative ads 474 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:49,359 Speaker 1: and they run ballot harvesting operations based on the laws 475 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:52,160 Speaker 1: of their state. In other words, they're doing it legally. 476 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 1: Republicans are not in that game. They think they can 477 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 1: win this the old fashioned way just by having better 478 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:01,919 Speaker 1: ideas and kissing babies and doing selfies. That's that's not 479 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:05,080 Speaker 1: going to work anymore. And that if we match a 480 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,360 Speaker 1: mail in ballot for mail in ballot, and I think 481 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,120 Speaker 1: we win. Harvested ballot we will push them to such 482 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,320 Speaker 1: an extent that will be harder for them to cheat 483 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: in these areas where we can't get the voter integrity 484 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 1: and play. I think if we adopt their methods, I 485 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:22,399 Speaker 1: think we win, Yes, because I think our ideas are superior, 486 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,920 Speaker 1: and I think there's been enough damage done in two 487 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: years under Biden that a lot of Americans are going 488 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: to be looking to move on from this insanity. Plus, 489 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 1: I feel like our people can shake the hands, do 490 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: the rallies go out and discuss the issues and matching 491 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 1: ballot for ballot because that well, that's and by the 492 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 1: way I'm taking there's only one state that requires every 493 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 1: the individual voter to hand in the ballot themselves, and 494 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 1: that's Alabama. Every other state has some version of ballot harvesting. 495 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,479 Speaker 1: So the answer to your question is we should not 496 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: only match it, we should do it better than them. 497 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,920 Speaker 1: But if they don't start preparing for that now, it's 498 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 1: not gonna happen. And I gotta run. Steve. Appreciate your call, 499 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,639 Speaker 1: smart caller. We have the smartest audience of anybody all right, 500 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 1: we'll take a quick break. We'll come right back. We'll 501 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:08,959 Speaker 1: get back to your phone calls eight hundred and nine 502 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 1: for one sean our number if you want to be 503 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:12,719 Speaker 1: a part of the program. All right, let's get back 504 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 1: to our busy phones on a newsday. This is Steve 505 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,640 Speaker 1: and Georgia. Steve, Hi, how are you? Glad you called? 506 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 1: Hey son, Steve, like you said in Georgia, I'm a 507 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: retired Army officer. I've been retired in a number of years. 508 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,800 Speaker 1: Thank you for your service. Glad you called. Thank you. 509 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 1: I watch your show, listen to your show, and I've 510 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 1: never called. But it's just a couple of things that's 511 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 1: been bugging me that I wanted to discuss. First of all, 512 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: this whole classified document thing. I think the media, I 513 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 1: think the investigators. Everybody's missing the key point here. Classified 514 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 1: documents are controlled by an individual or an office. When 515 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 1: you take a classified document, and I had the sci 516 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:03,399 Speaker 1: for years. If you're allowed to take a dollar the skiff, 517 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 1: which generally you're not, you had to sign for that. 518 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 1: You had to count the pages. It was counted as 519 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:11,679 Speaker 1: you brought it back in and it was signed for. 520 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,879 Speaker 1: Why were those people not calling on them for having 521 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 1: delinquent classified documents out. We need to find out who 522 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 1: ran the skiff in the White House, who runs the 523 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:28,879 Speaker 1: skiff in on Capitol Hill. We have rules, they're just 524 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,919 Speaker 1: not listening to them. And I don't know part of 525 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: the blame here. Remember the National Archives was called in 526 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: this week and James Comer told me, and the story 527 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 1: went viral that in fact, the Archives were advised by 528 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 1: the I guess the DJ somebody in the Biden White 529 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 1: House not to answer the oversight questions of Jim Comer 530 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 1: and his committee, the House Oversight Committee. So we've got 531 00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 1: to get to the bottom of that. I will tell 532 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 1: you that. And I'm not making any excuses for anybody 533 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: here because you're you are a thousand percent right, But 534 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: we're talking about voluminous amounts of material here that are 535 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: handed out, you know, to varying top officials that have 536 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 1: top security clearances. But you're right, the system is broken. No. Look, 537 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 1: I could make this prediction right here and right now. 538 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 1: Documents are not going to impact Donald Trump or Joe 539 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 1: Biden or Mike Pence. It's just not just like it 540 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 1: didn't impact Hillary. Although the Hillary issue is far more 541 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 1: severe because of the thirty three thousand deleted emails and 542 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 1: devices destroyed, etc. Etc. So, but I will say this, 543 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 1: when we get to the bottom of the question of 544 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 1: money made abroad by the Biden family, I believe it's 545 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 1: my thought. Will see and it's an educated guests, based 546 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 1: on everything I've seen and read. That is their great vulnerability. 547 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: But you know, let's see what happens. Time is going 548 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 1: to you know, will they do anything about it? I 549 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 1: don't know. I can't even answer that question. I mean, 550 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 1: that's how ridiculous things get over time. Anyway, I do 551 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 1: appreciate your call eight hundred and ninety four one, Sean. 552 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 1: If you want to be a part of the program, 553 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 1: we'll continue
