Speaker 1: Happy Friday, if you want to call it that. Eight
Speaker 1: hundred and nine four one sewn Tolfrey telephone number. I
Speaker 1: have a lot to say about this, Joe Biden, mister Unity,
Speaker 1: taking full credit for everything Donald Trump did and did
Speaker 1: well and did write, and it just makes me mad. Now.
Speaker 1: I've been talking a lot about this book, Lucky How
Speaker 1: Joe Biden barely won the presidency, and it's written by
Speaker 1: two mainstream media people, one from the Hill, one from NBC,
Speaker 1: and I've been fascinated with the book. By the way,
Speaker 1: it's not a pro Trump book. They take a lot
Speaker 1: of shots at Trump, but putting that aside. Remember this
Speaker 1: vote was forty two, nine and eighteen votes. That's prevented
Speaker 1: Donald Trump from being reelected, which infuriates all of us,
Speaker 1: knowing what we know now. Laws not listen to, the
Speaker 1: no partisan observers observed anything, state constitutions ignore, state laws ignored, ridiculous,
Speaker 1: you know, consent agreements that that benefited Democrats. It's just
Speaker 1: it's unbelievable that all this could happen, and a lot
Speaker 1: of it is now hopefully getting fixed. And George, I
Speaker 1: know it is. And oh, one note on Georgia, gotta
Speaker 1: tell you this, and we're gonna get these guys on
Speaker 1: the program. Um Robert Khailey, Trafalgar and Matt Towery. Insider
Speaker 1: Advantage did a poll guess who beats in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 1: Raphael Warnock yep herschel Walker. I hope he runs. It's
Speaker 1: a rock star. Love that man. Such a good guy,
Speaker 1: such a decent person. And although you know, as a friend,
Speaker 1: i'd have to say, yeah, they're gonna put They're gonna
Speaker 1: put you through hell. But I hope. But he's he's tough,
Speaker 1: and he's uh, he's he's just it's a great guy.
Speaker 1: He can handle anything. The guy got in the octagon, Linda,
Speaker 1: you know we got in the octagon. He trained MMA.
Speaker 1: Remember we were doing push ups in the studio that
Speaker 1: day together and he was kind of shocked that I
Speaker 1: did one hundred push ups with him. We have that
Speaker 1: on video. Okay, let's not put it on. Did you
Speaker 1: ever back up on Hannity dot com? I don't care.
Speaker 1: Put it up on Hannity dot com. And he goes
Speaker 1: fifteen hundred to two thousand a day, same would sit ups.
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, I've seen him do this. I'm like,
Speaker 1: I do one hundred and fifty. I give cut me
Speaker 1: some slack here and I and by the way, real pushups,
Speaker 1: no phony push ups. Um, all right, let me get so.
Speaker 1: We got a lot of news. We got to get
Speaker 1: to Biden's blunders last night, and see Hannity, he made
Speaker 1: it through. And I'm like, okay, let's look at the
Speaker 1: last three weeks. The fact that and people's writing, well,
Speaker 1: you don't know that he practiced, Hannity. He practiced. He
Speaker 1: had one thing on his schedule the last four days,
Speaker 1: just one. That's it. He spent a lot of time practicing.
Speaker 1: And believe me, there's a lot of nail biting behind
Speaker 1: the scene when he went out last night to give
Speaker 1: his eighteen minute little address and take a victory lap
Speaker 1: and credit for something he had nothing to do with,
Speaker 1: which kind of infuriates me. Also, we've got to start now,
Speaker 1: though in the great state of New York, it might
Speaker 1: now be it for Andrew cuomoy. Ironically, you know, in
Speaker 1: light of you can't say mom and dad, or Merry Christmas,
Speaker 1: Happy Holidays, ask where you went on vacation. In light
Speaker 1: of Dumbo and Peter Pan on the Chopping Block, Doctor
Speaker 1: Seuss books, you can't buy Doctor SEUs on Aye Bay,
Speaker 1: but you can buy Hitler's mind comp and you can
Speaker 1: buy the anarchist cookbook that will teach you how to
Speaker 1: build bombs. How do they say, how do they justify
Speaker 1: selling that crap? And and then we got, of course,
Speaker 1: Pepe Lapew, He's going to be canceled, pepe pepe Lapew.
Speaker 1: It's these are unreal times and we live mister and
Speaker 1: missus potato head. I can't even believe these words are
Speaker 1: flying out of my mouth, that this is happening in
Speaker 1: this country. This is insanity, and I'm telling you better
Speaker 1: stop now. So quos blaming cancel culture. A seventh woman
Speaker 1: has now come forward, and Cuomo today says he's not
Speaker 1: going to resign. I don't think I'm believing now his
Speaker 1: days are numbered. I didn't now though. It's fascinating about this,
Speaker 1: and I'm sure they'll probably want to blame Hannity Fox News.
Speaker 1: It's not Hannity doing this. All we're doing is we've
Speaker 1: been pointing it out. We're the ones that stayed consistent
Speaker 1: due process, presumption of innocence, the way we do with Cavanaugh,
Speaker 1: the way we always do it. And you know, I
Speaker 1: did make the point that when the interview was on
Speaker 1: CBS of one of the women making allegations against him,
Speaker 1: I was like, Wow, she came off as extraordinarily credible,
Speaker 1: and it was also backed in real time by text
Speaker 1: messages saved to a friend. You're not going to believe
Speaker 1: what just happened to me, the shocked that happened there,
Speaker 1: which added a lot of credibility. I thought to the
Speaker 1: interview that she gave so all these accusations. Now we're
Speaker 1: up to seven from the Washington Examiner, I Cuomo saying
Speaker 1: I did not do what has been alleged, blaming canceled
Speaker 1: culture in a conference call with the reporters, adding demands
Speaker 1: for him to resign are motivated by political animus, not
Speaker 1: factual evidence. I'm not going to resign, he said. And
Speaker 1: he was not elected by politicians, but by the people.
Speaker 1: Here's his problem now, the numbers. It's now becoming a
Speaker 1: numbers organized a numbers operation. Look, Democrats nationally want him
Speaker 1: out because, to be blunt, they won't admit it publicly.
Speaker 1: But there's not one single Democrat that I know in
Speaker 1: the country that believes Joe Biden's running for a second
Speaker 1: term or even thinking he's going to make it through
Speaker 1: the first term. And if that were the case, even
Speaker 1: if he made it through Kamala Harris, this is not
Speaker 1: going to get a coronation. There will be a primary
Speaker 1: challenge that I can tell you, and the fact that
Speaker 1: Newsom is now likely out of that race and Cuomo
Speaker 1: is going to be out of that race, Whitmer will
Speaker 1: be out of that race, all based on the same issue.
Speaker 1: COVID draconian shutdowns, everything that they've done wrong, nursing home scandals.
Speaker 1: Now that's saying that, in fact, Whitmer could face charges
Speaker 1: in her state. Then you got Murphy in New Jersey
Speaker 1: and you got Wolf in Pennsylvania. Then you compare them
Speaker 1: to you know, Governor Abbot, governor of Santis, Governor Christy Nome,
Speaker 1: governor of Mississippi, and all these other great red states
Speaker 1: where I'm so stupid, I'm not living in one of them.
Speaker 1: And it's it's now real. But he says he's not
Speaker 1: going to resign, and he made this after Congressman Jerry Nadlertow.
Speaker 1: He is part of the I believer concuss. It just
Speaker 1: took him. It took him seven seven people to get
Speaker 1: to the point where he was with Kavanaugh saying he
Speaker 1: should resign. Congresswoman the first one. I will give Congresswoman
Speaker 1: Alexandria Cassio Cortez high marks for being the first to
Speaker 1: say this is unacceptable and also one of the first
Speaker 1: saying that he needs to step down. You've got more
Speaker 1: than half of all New York lawmakers now Democrats mostly
Speaker 1: have called for the governor to step aside. This is
Speaker 1: a You have a veto proof majority in both the
Speaker 1: Assembly and the state Senate in New York. Republicans have
Speaker 1: no power in the state of New York, none whatsoever.
Speaker 1: You have accounts now after two accounts of actual sexual assault,
Speaker 1: for accounts of sexual harassment, the Attorney General now investigating
Speaker 1: finding the governor's administration hid the nursing home data. And
Speaker 1: what I sense here is is that Democrats and the
Speaker 1: media and national Democrats that want him out of the
Speaker 1: presidential race, they've had it. My guess is is that
Speaker 1: they probably weren't treated well in all the years he's
Speaker 1: been governor. But it's just a guess on my part.
Speaker 1: I'm looking at this is not a conservative public location
Speaker 1: New York magazine. It's got an angry picture of Andrew
Speaker 1: Cuomo kind of like what the New York Times magazine
Speaker 1: did to me. It says the cruelty and the casualties
Speaker 1: inside Andrew Cuomo's toxic workplace. The National Organization of Women,
Speaker 1: the NOW group, has now called for Cuomo to resign. Wow.
Speaker 1: Now that's big Biden administration. By the way, not a
Speaker 1: word yet from Kamala, nothing from Cooma, the leader of
Speaker 1: the Eye Believer Caucus. Not a word. You got a
Speaker 1: lot of Democrats, Joe Biden. Look, remember Lucy Flores, Tara Reid.
Speaker 1: They made allegations against Joe. Don't think that Joe is
Speaker 1: gonna get a full pass here either, although Democrats are
Speaker 1: gonna do everything they can to protect Joe. But we'll
Speaker 1: see there might. I'm watching that very closely anyway. They
Speaker 1: the National Organization from Women, established the nineteen sixty six
Speaker 1: They have called on Quomo to resign. He say must resign.
Speaker 1: He's unfit to serve as the leader of his state.
Speaker 1: For another day. He should resign. New York NOW president
Speaker 1: Sonja Osario told The New York Post many people were
Speaker 1: willing to let the investigation play out, but the latest
Speaker 1: allegation is a bridge too far. And by the way,
Speaker 1: Cuomo said Sunday he will not resign pending the New
Speaker 1: York Attorney General uh latitat se named Letitia. Sorry, thank you,
Speaker 1: Letitia James. She seems tough to me. She seems like
Speaker 1: she's she's tough anyway. So you have a seventh accuser
Speaker 1: now speaking out saying his hands have been all over
Speaker 1: her body. She writes, Andrew Cuomo's hands have been on
Speaker 1: my body, on my arms, my shoulders, the small of
Speaker 1: my back, my waist often enough by late twenty fourteen
Speaker 1: that I didn't want to go to the holiday party
Speaker 1: he was hosting for the Albany Press Corps at the
Speaker 1: Executive Mansion. I was twenty five years old, working as
Speaker 1: a State House reporter for what is now Politico New York.
Speaker 1: I had been to the Capitol, been on the Capitol
Speaker 1: beat a couple of years by then, but I was
Speaker 1: still among the youngest reporters in the Press Corps and
Speaker 1: one of the few women in the group whose job
Speaker 1: it was to report on the governor's every move. Everyone
Speaker 1: else was going and some had been covering state government
Speaker 1: for decades. I thought if I skipped the event, I
Speaker 1: might miss out on some intangible opportunity to cement myself
Speaker 1: as part of that community. I adored my gut instincts
Speaker 1: and went anyway, walking over from the New York State
Speaker 1: Capitol Building with several colleagues. Shortly after I arrived, news
Speaker 1: broke on my beat and I had to return to
Speaker 1: the capital. I decided to thank the governor for inviting me,
Speaker 1: and more importantly, to offer best wishes for his father's recovery.
Speaker 1: Its former governor since passed away, Mario Cuomo, he was
Speaker 1: dying at the time. I walked up to the governor
Speaker 1: in the middle of a conversation with another reporter and
Speaker 1: waited for a moment that I could interject. He took
Speaker 1: my hand as if to shake it, then refused to
Speaker 1: let it go, put his arm around my back. His
Speaker 1: hand on my waist held me firmly in place while
Speaker 1: indicating to a photographer he wanted us to pose for
Speaker 1: a picture. My job was to analyze and scrutinize him.
Speaker 1: I didn't want a photo of him with his hands
Speaker 1: on my body and a smile on my face. But
Speaker 1: I made a reflexive assessment that most women and marginalized
Speaker 1: people would know instinctively. The calculation about risk and power
Speaker 1: and self preservation. I knew it would be far easier
Speaker 1: to smile for a brief moment than take it takes
Speaker 1: to snap a picture, than to challenge one of the
Speaker 1: most powerful men in the country. And then she said
Speaker 1: my calculation was a bit off. I was wrong to
Speaker 1: believe this experience would last for just a moment. Because
Speaker 1: his grip on me, I practically squirmed to get away
Speaker 1: from him. The Governor turned my body to face a
Speaker 1: different direction for another picture, wouldn't let go of my hand.
Speaker 1: Then he turned to me with a mischievous smile, in
Speaker 1: front of all my colleagues and said, I'm sorry, am
Speaker 1: I making you uncomfortable? I thought we were going steady.
Speaker 1: I stood there and stunned, silence, shocked, humiliated. But of
Speaker 1: course that was the point. I never thought the Governor
Speaker 1: wanted to have sex with me. It wasn't about sex,
Speaker 1: she writes, It was about power. He wanted me to
Speaker 1: know I was power less, and I was small and weak,
Speaker 1: and I didn't deserve what relative power. I had a
Speaker 1: platform to hold him accountable for his words and his actions.
Speaker 1: He wanted me to know that he could take my
Speaker 1: dignity away at any moment with an inappropriate comment or
Speaker 1: hand on my wrist. Cuomo denies it, and it goes
Speaker 1: on from there, and there's more, a lot more. Now
Speaker 1: there's other stuff happening here too, Fifty nine state New
Speaker 1: York State Democrats calling for him to resign. The entire
Speaker 1: state Senate GOP conference call for his resignation. New York's
Speaker 1: Democratic let Assembly authorized through their Assembly speaker, the Judiciary
Speaker 1: Committee to begin an impeachment investigation. More recent allegations referred
Speaker 1: to Albany Police department. Comrade de Blasio wants him to
Speaker 1: resign immediately. Then Nadler Accatio Cortez new reporting that another.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is now hitting critical mass, and I'm
Speaker 1: kind of surprised, but I'm not and I think I
Speaker 1: figured out why national Democrats want them out. New York
Speaker 1: State Democrats feel like they've been treated like crap for years.
Speaker 1: That's my take. So the only way to characterize this
Speaker 1: is the Cuomo's governorship is literally hanging by a threat.
Speaker 1: And I would even argue Newsom's too. There is going
Speaker 1: to be a recall election out in California and Governor
Speaker 1: Whitmer in big trouble. Also, as now police are now
Speaker 1: investigating in Albany. The New York Attorney General has now
Speaker 1: established a hotline for Cuomo's sexual assault victims. I mentioned
Speaker 1: aoc nadler Cuomo to resign. The impeachment effort has now
Speaker 1: hit a critical mass as New York One and New
Speaker 1: York States. And this is pretty interesting here. If the
Speaker 1: Assembly votes to impeach Cuomo, in other words, that would
Speaker 1: be the equivalent of the House of Representatives in Washington.
Speaker 1: Cuomo would be required to temporarily step down until the
Speaker 1: Senate trials over. Now that's a big deal. According to
Speaker 1: New York One, New York state rules for impeachment require
Speaker 1: Cuomo to step down once the case goes on trial.
Speaker 1: Only if Cuomo is acquitted does he get to return
Speaker 1: to the office. The New York State Assembly as one
Speaker 1: hundred fifty members, that would mean they need a seventy
Speaker 1: six vote majority to impeach Andrew Cuombo. Now, there are
Speaker 1: currently seventy eight members of the Assembly on record supporting
Speaker 1: his impeachment. New York One points out, Yeah, they only
Speaker 1: require seventy six. That's two more now right now that
Speaker 1: would vote to impeach him if approved in the Assembly.
Speaker 1: And now the Assembly leader Democrat has given the okay
Speaker 1: for this to be this to start moving forward. Then
Speaker 1: if that was then they would have the Senate would
Speaker 1: be sent over there overseeing. And we have the Senate
Speaker 1: majority leader probably the most powerful elected Democrat in the state,
Speaker 1: well maybe the ag and she has said the same thing.
Speaker 1: The senators themselves would be the jurors. Two thirds of
Speaker 1: the sixty three member state Senate would be required to
Speaker 1: convict and remove. But a governor under impeachment in New
Speaker 1: York must relinquish power temporarily to the lieutenant governor, who
Speaker 1: becomes acting governor during the trial. Wow, getting interesting, quick
Speaker 1: break right back all right, twenty five till the top
Speaker 1: of the hour, eight hundred and nine four one. Sean,
Speaker 1: you want to be a part of this extravaganza. Cuomo
Speaker 1: now blaming canceled culture. Okay, that's a stretch. Well what
Speaker 1: about in the case of Eric Schneiderman demand right away
Speaker 1: gotta resign? What about what he did with Kavanaugh? You see,
Speaker 1: I mean, look the reason and how do I say this?
Speaker 1: And that sounds like an arrogant jerk. We take pride
Speaker 1: in getting things right. I've explained many times on this program.
Speaker 1: The lesson that I learned as a local host in
Speaker 1: Atlanta and the Richard Jewel and the Olympic Park bombing,
Speaker 1: and how I didn't rush to judgment everybody else did.
Speaker 1: And this poor guy happened to be listening to me
Speaker 1: unbeknownst to me, and later I find out he says,
Speaker 1: you're the only one that gave me that was fair
Speaker 1: to me because he fits the profile of a lone bomber.
Speaker 1: He lives with his mother. So what he's saving money,
Speaker 1: what's the big deal? Doesn't mean anything? And you know,
Speaker 1: I listen, I think they killed the guy as a
Speaker 1: result of it. But it taught me a lesson. There's
Speaker 1: a reason that the mob and they are a mob.
Speaker 1: It's a mob mentality in the media got Russia Russia,
Speaker 1: Russia row that they allowed their political prejudice, bias, radical
Speaker 1: socialist agenda to get in the way of any fair reporting,
Speaker 1: and they were wrong on everything, and they pedaled lies
Speaker 1: and conspiracy theories to you the American people for three
Speaker 1: and three long years and dragged the country through hell
Speaker 1: in the process. You know, think of hands up, don't shoot.
Speaker 1: That never happened in Fergus And how did we get
Speaker 1: it right, and they got it wrong because I actually
Speaker 1: did my own digging and I had sources, sources which
Speaker 1: I'll never reveal that we're telling me, Hannity, be careful
Speaker 1: because there are this many eyewitnesses happened to be African
Speaker 1: American that are already on record confirming what Officer Darren
Speaker 1: Wilson is claiming. Seeing Michael Brown reach into the car,
Speaker 1: that's when the first shot went off. Then, of course
Speaker 1: nobody wanted to talk about the intimidation and out the
Speaker 1: theft of him and another guy to the poor convenience
Speaker 1: store operator guy pushed them up against the rack. Remember
Speaker 1: if you recall and we didn't rush the joke, we
Speaker 1: were right. They were all wrong. We were right on
Speaker 1: the Duke Lacrosse case. How did I know because I
Speaker 1: actually got my car, called the families, met with a
Speaker 1: couple of the families, and met with a couple of
Speaker 1: the kids, and I began to piece the story together
Speaker 1: on my own and what eventually happened in that case,
Speaker 1: while the liberal professors a Duke were rushing to judgment
Speaker 1: and taking out ads in newspapers basically proclaiming these kids
Speaker 1: are guilty, while I was getting in they were they
Speaker 1: were already in the process of having to prove there.
Speaker 1: They had to prove their innocence in that case, and
Speaker 1: they did time stamp video pictures, Guys taken out money
Speaker 1: from a bank, Guys returning to their dorm room within
Speaker 1: the time frame where quotes supposedly they were involved in
Speaker 1: this rape. We were right. The mob got it wrong. Ferguson,
Speaker 1: I had sources there too. I'm sorry, but Baltimore, Maryland,
Speaker 1: I had sources there too. With Freddie Gray case, Cambridge Police,
Speaker 1: we had sources. And so it's not these are not words.
Speaker 1: I owe it to you if I'm gonna do my
Speaker 1: job to dig deeper and not to rush to judgment,
Speaker 1: believe in due process. Some of you got frustrated with me.
Speaker 1: I bet people throwing information at me post election twenty
Speaker 1: twenty that I was skeptical of and I'd say show me,
Speaker 1: and they couldn't do it, and I'm like that that's
Speaker 1: not enough. You gotta give me more. You gotta show me.
Speaker 1: And that's hence what we focused on is what we knew.
Speaker 1: We knew that the statutory language in every state says
Speaker 1: partisan observers of a right to observe it didn't happen.
Speaker 1: We you know, I thought we we praised whistleblowers in
Speaker 1: this country. Well, didn't want to hear from one person
Speaker 1: that signed an affidavid under penalty of perjury in the
Speaker 1: post election announced nobody. I think we're like one of
Speaker 1: the few shows of any others that I don't know
Speaker 1: that actually interviewed people that signed the affidavits legal affidavit
Speaker 1: under the threat of perjury. You know. Then we looked
Speaker 1: at the Pennsylvania state Constitution, and we looked at the
Speaker 1: Georgia Consent Agreement, which gave dual signature verification standards, one
Speaker 1: for mail in balloting, another in person voting. Pennsylvania constitution
Speaker 1: clearly prohibited the state legislature from passing what was it
Speaker 1: called the build number seventy HP seventy if I remember correctly,
Speaker 1: they can't do it. There's a process to change the
Speaker 1: constitution and make it amendment, but it's a lot more
Speaker 1: difficult than just passing a law, because you need more
Speaker 1: than fifty percent. And then, of course we went over
Speaker 1: the laws in Wisconsin and Michigan and we pointed out
Speaker 1: where things laws were not followed, constitutions were not followed.
Speaker 1: Now they're fixing it. In Georgia. I know that for
Speaker 1: a fact, a state legislature there is acting. Thank goodness,
Speaker 1: they need to Pennsylvania has begun the process, Arizona has
Speaker 1: begun the process. It needs to happen in Wisconsin and
Speaker 1: Michigan too, and any other state that might have issues.
Speaker 1: We need integrity, confidence, and certainly hr One wouldn't be
Speaker 1: a part of it anyway. So we have a seventh
Speaker 1: accuser now speaking out against Cuomo. We stayed consistent, we
Speaker 1: didn't rush to judgment. We provided due process, presumption of
Speaker 1: innocence in the Cavanaugh case. Even in the Havanati case,
Speaker 1: allegations were made by a girlfriend. At the time, I said,
Speaker 1: I'm not rushing to judgment even here. Although I can
Speaker 1: say after watching this young woman give this interview to CBS, WOW,
Speaker 1: backed up by real time text messages was pretty powerful.
Speaker 1: Peace in New York New Yorker today is pretty powerful too.
Speaker 1: The so there is definitely Cuomo's governorship now hanging by
Speaker 1: a thread. Now you have more more Assembly members, the
Speaker 1: equivalent of the House of Representatives, just to help people
Speaker 1: out that don't follow us every day like I do. Now,
Speaker 1: I think you should can be miserable at times. Anyway,
Speaker 1: the New York Attorney General has established a hotline for
Speaker 1: sexual assault victims of Cuomo. You got AOC and Nadler
Speaker 1: wanting to resign. Comrade Deblasio's not They've been on each
Speaker 1: other's throats the whole time. That doesn't surprise me. But
Speaker 1: it's now hit critical mass. Even the Washington Examiners picked
Speaker 1: up on the story that we told you about. We
Speaker 1: have the nursing home death scandal, and then we told
Speaker 1: you about five hundred and fifty two developmentally disabled individuals
Speaker 1: that died from COVID and that executive action was never rescinded.
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable. It was the same thing as the nursing homes.
Speaker 1: Now other people are picking up on that. We've been
Speaker 1: ahead of the curve on that one too. Governor Cuomo's
Speaker 1: aids out there trying to discredit all these accusers. Michael
Speaker 1: goodwe we have him on this program. He's a great writer.
Speaker 1: He laid out ten questions that Cuomo needs to answer,
Speaker 1: and you know pretty simple. If you or anyone in
Speaker 1: your office have you received a subpoena, why won't you
Speaker 1: release your contact? A contract with Crown publishing, because remember
Speaker 1: he knew in June that there were nine thousand deaths.
Speaker 1: That's when they started covering up the nursing home scandal
Speaker 1: and taking the numbers out from their own health department.
Speaker 1: A former talk about one question about Lindsey Boylan, she
Speaker 1: makes these allegations. Did you do it? Do you have
Speaker 1: a cigar box given to you by Bill Clinton? Boy
Speaker 1: that's rough. Michael could another rough boil and released an
Speaker 1: email from your assistant saying that Boilan reminded you of
Speaker 1: Lisa Shields, your former girlfriend. Did you ever call Boylan
Speaker 1: Lisa in front of your colleagues? Did you ask a
Speaker 1: former New York State employee, Charlotte Bennett, that's the one
Speaker 1: that gave the interview on CBS, if you ever had
Speaker 1: sex with older men? Did you tell Bennett you're open
Speaker 1: to having a relationship with women above the age of
Speaker 1: twenty two? And when and how did you first learn
Speaker 1: that Bennett had reported your behavior to people in your
Speaker 1: administration and that you know a couple more anyway, So
Speaker 1: it is an now an open criminal investigation with now
Speaker 1: seven accusers. This is now a big deal and it's
Speaker 1: a critical mass. Now, what's Senator Schumer going to do.
Speaker 1: Where's Kirsten Gillibrand she was part of the eye Believer caucus. Now.
Speaker 1: Senator Schumer went as far as saying that the allegations
Speaker 1: are nauseating, but that's as far as he's going. He
Speaker 1: was an eye believer too, So you just see the
Speaker 1: different treatments. And then that's the sad part of it,
Speaker 1: because these are serious issues. They it was a one
Speaker 1: time Republicans actually got things right. They actually handled what
Speaker 1: happened in the Kavanaugh case. As tough as that was,
Speaker 1: they took it with the seriousness deserved, went through a process.
Speaker 1: Some people made allegations and they were totally debunked, and
Speaker 1: then the vote took place on the illegal immigration front.
Speaker 1: With all the talk about Joe Biden. No, this really
Speaker 1: pissed me off last night. I probably did you too.
Speaker 1: You know, Joe Biden got three vaccines thanks to President
Speaker 1: Trump and Operation Warp Speed. He didn't once mister Unity.
Speaker 1: President Unity. Give a tip of the hat to President Trump.
Speaker 1: They were over thirty six million doses distributed already before
Speaker 1: Joe Biden never got into office. He got three. He
Speaker 1: got three separate vaccines because of the President and we
Speaker 1: played last night how all the Democrats had said, this
Speaker 1: is pie in the sky, wishful thinking, we'll never get
Speaker 1: a vaccine in less than a year. But Operation war
Speaker 1: Spood was fascinating because what Donald Trump was saying to
Speaker 1: these companies Maderna, Astra, Zeneca, Johnson and Johnson, and FISA
Speaker 1: was go do your work, work your asses off, but
Speaker 1: if you lose money, we'll back you up. That that
Speaker 1: freed up these companies to just unload their very, very
Speaker 1: best in the middle of the worst pandemic since nineteen
Speaker 1: seventeen and eighteen. And it worked, just like Donald Trump
Speaker 1: saved New York and New Jersey and all these other places.
Speaker 1: It gets no credit for it. You know. Meanwhile, Cuomo's
Speaker 1: ignoring the stupid order to the game, won't rescind it
Speaker 1: because he's too busy writing a book on how great
Speaker 1: he is as a leader. Joe Biden had nothing to
Speaker 1: do with the vaccine. He had nothing to do with
Speaker 1: mars Row for either taking credit for somebody else's work
Speaker 1: last night. Really, you know, and the idea we'll see, Hannity,
Speaker 1: I told you this would happen because I predicted the
Speaker 1: day before, say he's gonna get through his speech. He's
Speaker 1: been practicing probably all week. He'll get through a State
Speaker 1: of the Union address practicing that too. Okay, So is
Speaker 1: that the lowest bar possible that a president can give
Speaker 1: it an eighteen minute speech without making a total full
Speaker 1: of himself like the last three weeks. I won't play
Speaker 1: it now, but we've been playing for you. We've seen,
Speaker 1: we see what we see. He's struggling cognitively. You know
Speaker 1: why fifty one days no press conference. They're trying to
Speaker 1: get him out now more of they're trying. Okay, Joe,
Speaker 1: we need you to just step up a little bit today.
Speaker 1: See how this works out in the long term. And
Speaker 1: it's not that hard frankly, to read a teleprompter. You'd
Speaker 1: think it's, you know, a big heavy lift. It's not,
Speaker 1: you know. And there's the medium mob. How do they
Speaker 1: treat Donald Trump and all this? Anyway? At the border,
Speaker 1: the COVID rate among illegal immigrants is up ten times
Speaker 1: higher than the US average. It was in the Washington
Speaker 1: Times today, ten times higher. I don't see you see overcrowding,
Speaker 1: no social distancing, and very few masts. I told you
Speaker 1: about Harlingen, Texas near Brownsville, homeless shelter families being dropped
Speaker 1: off reported I have twenty five percent positivity rate for
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen. That's more than seven times the current positivity
Speaker 1: rate for the US public. According to John Hopkins University's tracker,
Speaker 1: that is an unmitigated disaster. And then they're just shipping
Speaker 1: people out into all fifty states. Great Bind's administration is
Speaker 1: speed eating up the process to distribute illegal migrant children
Speaker 1: throughout the rest of the country. The Washington Times points
Speaker 1: out over a hundred thousand people in a month have
Speaker 1: crossed this border. Thirty thousand kids on their own in
Speaker 1: one month entering the US. We still can't get a
Speaker 1: look at the cargo shipping containers to see what's going
Speaker 1: on inside. The COVID infection rate for Biden's illegal immigrants
Speaker 1: has doubled in a week. Even Chucky Schumer law, he's
Speaker 1: blaming Donald Trump. He inherited Donald Trump's policies, but he
Speaker 1: also said, Joe better do better. You gotta do better.
Speaker 1: You think how about bringing back ending catch and release,
Speaker 1: how about building the rest of the wall. How about
Speaker 1: no promise of amnesty. The incentive that has created this
Speaker 1: crisis don't come now, But you can come under the
Speaker 1: second We don't ever crisis of the border. May Orchis
Speaker 1: and Joe saying the same thing. Bide administration overruled the
Speaker 1: general that wanted to withdraw the National Guard from DC.
Speaker 1: That was something that happened too. But it's it's a
Speaker 1: it's a real challenge. Now on top of this, you
Speaker 1: got now they're a full fledged effort to take away
Speaker 1: your Second Amendment rights and put major restrictions on the
Speaker 1: Second Amendment. The more we find out about this bailout bill,
Speaker 1: the worse it gets. By the way, now that now
Speaker 1: they're pushing a bill to force Americans to fund overseas abortion.
Speaker 1: They even sneak sixty billion in new taxes in the
Speaker 1: so called relief package. To Sean Hannity's show, Thanks for
Speaker 1: being one of us Toll free. Our number is eight
Speaker 1: hundred and nine for one, Sean, you want to be
Speaker 1: a part of the program. Still watching, waiting, monitoring the
Speaker 1: situation in all the New York today. It's really really
Speaker 1: getting interesting. This is democrats doing this. I've been talking
Speaker 1: about this book. I'm almost finished reading it. It's called
Speaker 1: Lucky Now. It's not a complimentary book towards Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: In any way, shape, matter, or form. But that's not
Speaker 1: what his interest to me the most in this book
Speaker 1: is because you don't get many people in the mainstream
Speaker 1: media that even have any semblance to being reporters or
Speaker 1: journalists or down the middle or even trying to hear
Speaker 1: or give both sides of things, at least I don't
Speaker 1: think so. And what's interesting about this This is the
Speaker 1: book that revealed that, in fact, Joe Biden the Democrats
Speaker 1: had this keep your crazy uncle in the basement strategy.
Speaker 1: Now I've been pointing out it was funny because I
Speaker 1: predicted the day before Biden speeches, say he's going to
Speaker 1: get through a speeches from practice in a whole week.
Speaker 1: So there's this new book out. It's called Lucky. It's
Speaker 1: written by senior political reporter for NBC News Jonathan Allen.
Speaker 1: Amy Parnes is a senior correspondent at The Hill. Um,
Speaker 1: let me just play Joe the last three weeks, just
Speaker 1: the last three weeks, forget about the campaign, forget about
Speaker 1: endowed by oh, you know the thing, the Thing, God,
Speaker 1: the creator of everything, and this is just the last
Speaker 1: three weeks. Listen, I want to thank you. The second
Speaker 1: be the former general I keep calling general my my, Uh,
Speaker 1: the guy who runs that outfit over there. The vast
Speaker 1: majority of economists left, right and center, from Wall Street
Speaker 1: to the to the private and private huh economic Paulian initiatives.
Speaker 1: Now am I supposed to speak or as what you're
Speaker 1: going to say something? The representatives? Uh, Shirley Jackson, Lee
Speaker 1: al Green, Sylvia Garcia, Lizzie Finelli. Excuse me Finell? And
Speaker 1: what am I doing here that? Oh? We're five hundred
Speaker 1: nas a card. I carry a card on me every
Speaker 1: day with a number of folks who have been effective.
Speaker 1: All right, joining us now the authors of this new book.
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be a best seller. Maybe
Speaker 1: it is already. I just haven't heard Jonathan Allen and
Speaker 1: Amy Parnes. Did you guys do well with The New
Speaker 1: York Times? Were not? The New York Times is not
Speaker 1: in love with us at the moment. I know you've
Speaker 1: written I think at least four best sellers. I have
Speaker 1: four number one books, Yes, sir, I did. But I'm
Speaker 1: I hate writing books. You can keep it. It's the
Speaker 1: worst thing in the world. I don't know how you
Speaker 1: do it during a pandemic. No less. But by the way,
Speaker 1: that's a good point, Amy, a good point. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm not kidding when I say I was fascinated by
Speaker 1: your book, because when you you know, I didn't like
Speaker 1: it needed Dunn's comments, which is, oh, COVID's the best
Speaker 1: thing that happened to Joe Biden. There's probably truth in
Speaker 1: that statement, and I believe you're both telling the truth
Speaker 1: by reporting it and probably have gotten criticism. Let me
Speaker 1: let me start asking a distant question from what the
Speaker 1: topic is, and that is has the mainstream media covered
Speaker 1: your book or have they been ignoring you? Well, it's
Speaker 1: tough because, as you mentioned, John and I are straight
Speaker 1: down the middle and we you know, we did this
Speaker 1: unshattered our last book, and we are doing it again now.
Speaker 1: We're providing an honest take on what happened during the selections.
Speaker 1: It's tough medicine. It's it's a lot of it's medicine
Speaker 1: for Democrats to swallow. And I think that a lot
Speaker 1: of people don't want to think about it. They kind
Speaker 1: of feel like they squeaked by in the selection. But
Speaker 1: there are lessons to be learned from what happened here,
Speaker 1: and it was very, very close, and that's what we
Speaker 1: talk about in this book. Well, the full title of
Speaker 1: the book is Lucky How Joe Biden barely won the presidency. Now,
Speaker 1: let me be fair and balanced, if you will, to
Speaker 1: use a phrase, and this is not exactly complimentary of
Speaker 1: the Donald Trump campaign or Donald Trump, is it, Jonathan, No,
Speaker 1: it's no. I mean, it's not a hagiography of anyone.
Speaker 1: And I'm sure there people who are going to read
Speaker 1: this who are Donald Trump fans, and they're gonna be
Speaker 1: lines they don't like. But what they're gonna love is
Speaker 1: the inside reporting on what happened inside Joe Biden's campaign,
Speaker 1: some of the other Democratic campaigns, and some of the
Speaker 1: great stories that we have about what happened inside the
Speaker 1: Trump campaign that are believable because they're true. You know,
Speaker 1: you read so much stuff out there about Donald You
Speaker 1: guys should have called me big mistake not not reaching
Speaker 1: out to Hannity. I could have told you stories, but
Speaker 1: I wouldn't tell you. I don't talk to the media anymore.
Speaker 1: But it's it's Lucky how Joe Biden barely barely won
Speaker 1: the presidency. Now, in this book, you talk about the
Speaker 1: Democrats running the keep your crazy uncle in the basement strategy,
Speaker 1: COVID gives them some I don't know, um, some explanation
Speaker 1: or reasonable explanations so they can get away with it,
Speaker 1: I would argue, and Amy, I'll ask you first that
Speaker 1: they didn't have any other choice, because I really do believe.
Speaker 1: And that's sad to say that Joe as he looks
Speaker 1: very weak to me. He looks very frail to me,
Speaker 1: and he looks like he's struggling cognitively. And I can
Speaker 1: play now an hour's worth of tape that would back
Speaker 1: up my client. Nobody else seems to want to talk
Speaker 1: about it. They were petrified at the time, and that's
Speaker 1: the truth. Like John and I have both talked to
Speaker 1: lots of people inside the campaign who knew that Joe
Speaker 1: Biden was prone to gaffs and missteps, and at one
Speaker 1: point they were considering tweaking his schedule because they thought
Speaker 1: they didn't want him to speak late in the evening
Speaker 1: where he was making more and more our mistakes. And
Speaker 1: so you talked about Anita Dunn's comment earlier. That's something
Speaker 1: that did happen. She talked to an associate about it.
Speaker 1: That's something you know. She said that COVID is the
Speaker 1: best thing that ever happened to him. That's something that
Speaker 1: they were all sort of saying behind the scenes, because
Speaker 1: he could avoid these missteps by being at home. And
Speaker 1: you know, I look at this so if the strategy
Speaker 1: is so, and I would add a couple of other
Speaker 1: pieces to this puzzle, Jonathan. They never he never really
Speaker 1: got the tough questioning whenever there was a big moment
Speaker 1: in the campaign where he'd have to perform outside of
Speaker 1: the basement, a might be inaccurate and saying he'd usually
Speaker 1: disappear for five days or six days as they rested him,
Speaker 1: as they adjusted his schedule, and maybe perhaps other things
Speaker 1: that we were kept in the dark about. For several months,
Speaker 1: there was no availability of Biden. For most reporters, it
Speaker 1: was he was nine days, but who's counting, Yeah, exactly,
Speaker 1: So he disappears from the stage during the middle of
Speaker 1: the pandemic. And as Amy was saying, it's not just
Speaker 1: that either done who said us to an associate. We
Speaker 1: talked to any number of people inside the Biden campaign
Speaker 1: and allies of his and even one you know, close
Speaker 1: personal friend, and they also they were all saying COVID
Speaker 1: helped Biden. I mean, it's not something they want to
Speaker 1: admit it's not something politically that's out that tageous for
Speaker 1: them to say. But but I don't think. I don't
Speaker 1: know anybody who watched this election to think that COVID
Speaker 1: was helpful to President Trump, who was riding a pretty
Speaker 1: pretty hot economy before COVID hit and obviously didn't have
Speaker 1: a pandemic to deal with. You know, people will talk
Speaker 1: about how he handled at various points, but he was
Speaker 1: in pretty decent shape before it hit. And I think
Speaker 1: both sides, because I talked, we talked to people inside
Speaker 1: both campaigns, believe that COVID really hurt President Trump and
Speaker 1: helped Biden. I don't think either one of you are
Speaker 1: gonna like this next question, and I'll even give you
Speaker 1: one out. You don't have to answer if you don't want,
Speaker 1: but I want you to be honest if you can sure,
Speaker 1: do you believe that I am correct in my observation.
Speaker 1: It's not a medical diagnosis I'm giving here. I'm not
Speaker 1: a doctor. I don't play one on radio, and I
Speaker 1: certainly don't play one on TV. Amy, do you see
Speaker 1: Joe Biden twenty sixteen, twenty twelve and Joe Biden today?
Speaker 1: Do you think he looks weaker, much weaker, fral and
Speaker 1: do you see that he's struggling cognitively. He's definitely slowed down.
Speaker 1: But I think that's why you saw concern among Democrats
Speaker 1: about whether he could win this race. I mean, even
Speaker 1: his former partner, President Obama, calls Aids into his office
Speaker 1: at the start of the campaign and is worried that
Speaker 1: he's not only going to embarrass himself on the campaign trail,
Speaker 1: but he will tarnish the Obama brand. And that's something
Speaker 1: we get into in the book. You know, there's we
Speaker 1: have kind of Obama lingering in the background and watching
Speaker 1: and of course he doesn't want to tip the scales,
Speaker 1: but I think he was worried that this was going
Speaker 1: to happen. And when he's talking about Biden, we have
Speaker 1: a scene in the book where he is talking to
Speaker 1: a bunch of very a group of black donors, and
Speaker 1: he is essentially talking up Elizabeth Warren and he is
Speaker 1: kind of, you know, jabbing at Mayor Pete a little bit,
Speaker 1: and he's not really mentioning any other candidate, and he
Speaker 1: completely forgets to talk about Joe Biden and has to
Speaker 1: be reminded by a donor. In the room. You forgot
Speaker 1: to mention Biden up with that, and it was kind
Speaker 1: of a very interesting window into his thinking at the time.
Speaker 1: He was very private, obviously didn't want to talk about
Speaker 1: where he was and where what he was thinking about
Speaker 1: the race, but I think this definitely was some insight
Speaker 1: into the fact that he didn't think that his former
Speaker 1: partner could go all the way and beat Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: The same question, Jonathan Allen. Yeah, I don't know anyone
Speaker 1: who's watched Joe Biden over a time who thinks that
Speaker 1: he is currently the same same value was in two
Speaker 1: thousand and eight or two thousand and twee, you know,
Speaker 1: pick your year of the past, the vintage of Joe
Speaker 1: Biden over the course of fifty years. You know. I
Speaker 1: think one of the things that the being in his
Speaker 1: basement allowed him to do is be a little more
Speaker 1: patient and very careful of his words. And the reason
Speaker 1: some of the folks close to him thinks that I
Speaker 1: think it helped him is because it allowed him to
Speaker 1: be extremely scripted. He didn't have those moments. You know,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is answering questions every single day at the
Speaker 1: White House podium. He's answering them as he gets into
Speaker 1: Marine one on a reasonably frequent basis, and by didn't
Speaker 1: have to expose himself to those kinds of things, and
Speaker 1: that meant that he wasn't likely to make gaffs or
Speaker 1: even worse. What Biden often does is reveals what he's
Speaker 1: thinking that isn't politically appropriate and then sort of get
Speaker 1: swept under the rug of the gaff. Yeah, what the hell?
Speaker 1: What the hell am I doing here? I wake up
Speaker 1: every morning. I turned to Joe to say, where are
Speaker 1: we A little scary? You know, it's interesting because you
Speaker 1: did bring up in the book the allegations by Tara Reid,
Speaker 1: but there were other allegations, for example, with Lucy Flores.
Speaker 1: Now that we see what's happening with Andrew Cuomo, I'm
Speaker 1: not sure Cuomo now survives. I didn't believe that a
Speaker 1: week ago. I thought he'd probably squeaked through. I'm not
Speaker 1: so short today. But Amy does this now create a
Speaker 1: possibility that this could become a big issue for Joe.
Speaker 1: I don't think that it will be because it wasn't
Speaker 1: during the campaign, but who knows. I could be wrong.
Speaker 1: I mean, what's interesting is we talk about Lucy Flores
Speaker 1: in the book, and we talk about how he felt
Speaker 1: like he didn't want to apologize, that there was no
Speaker 1: apology necessary, which I think a lot of women might
Speaker 1: have found insulting. But you know, this is sort of him.
Speaker 1: Everyone thinks he's affable and likable, and he is to
Speaker 1: some extent, obviously, but I think, you know, it was
Speaker 1: insulting to a lot of women who felt like he
Speaker 1: was inappropriate at the time. And the fact that he
Speaker 1: didn't need to apologize sort of where Andrew Cuomo finds
Speaker 1: himself right now too. Yeah, where's the belief The I
Speaker 1: believer caucus is awfully silent for the most part. They've
Speaker 1: been silent. Now they're beginning to slowly come around. Go ahead, Jonathan,
Speaker 1: I was just going to say, the person who has
Speaker 1: a real exposure right now is Chuck Schumer, because he's
Speaker 1: watching Alexandria Kazio Cortez and all of the Liberals in
Speaker 1: New York come out and say that Cuomo should resign
Speaker 1: or should be impeached, and that's going to put a
Speaker 1: lot of pressure on Schumer, who wants to keep his
Speaker 1: Senate seat, who doesn't want to get primary, to put
Speaker 1: a lot of pressure on him to do the same
Speaker 1: or potentially face a strong push from the least against it.
Speaker 1: I think he really see. I believe that that Congresswoman
Speaker 1: Alexandre Acasio Cortez is the real speaker of the House,
Speaker 1: and that Nancy Pelosi's speaker in name only, and that
Speaker 1: whatever the squad says, she's going to have to go
Speaker 1: along with, knowing that she could be out the next day. Otherwise.
Speaker 1: Do you really believe Schumer has the same fear of, say,
Speaker 1: a primary by the congresswoman, I really does. I think
Speaker 1: he's a fear of primary by her or by somebody
Speaker 1: like her within New York. You know, the politics of
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party of New York are extremely fractious right now,
Speaker 1: and with Cuomo and so much trouble, everybody's running for cover.
Speaker 1: Pretty interesting. Let me go back to this issue of Obama,
Speaker 1: and you rightly say in the book that he wanted
Speaker 1: to support Beto Rourke for president, and his concerns for
Speaker 1: Biden ran deeper than defeat, that he worried that Biden
Speaker 1: would embarrass himself. Now I have sources that, believe it
Speaker 1: or not, are close to Biden, and they're telling me
Speaker 1: things are much worse than what is known publicly. I
Speaker 1: gotta believe that you probably talk to people that are
Speaker 1: close to Biden that gave you insight that probably the
Speaker 1: would shock the American people. Am I wrong, Amy? No?
Speaker 1: I mean I think people talk to us about, you know,
Speaker 1: the fact that he could get himself into trouble by
Speaker 1: these by his verbal gaffs and blunders and missteps and
Speaker 1: how he speaks his mind. And I'm looking for a
Speaker 1: little bit deeper proban than that. Yeah, Sean, if we
Speaker 1: could put it this way, nobody was closer to Joe
Speaker 1: Biden for eight years than Barack Obama, and Barack Obama's
Speaker 1: main concern was not that Joe Biden was going to lose,
Speaker 1: though he thought Biden would lose. His main concern was
Speaker 1: that Joe Biden would embarrass himself on the campaign trail.
Speaker 1: And he went to talk to Biden's aids before the
Speaker 1: campaign and said, please do not let him embarrass himself
Speaker 1: on the campaign trail. Don't let him tarnish his legacy.
Speaker 1: By extension that the Obama legacy. I mean, people could
Speaker 1: judge what they want from that, but Obama's concerned that
Speaker 1: Biden was going to fall flat on his face and
Speaker 1: tarnish his legacy and be embarrassing on the campaign trail,
Speaker 1: suggest that Obama, who spent so much time with Biden,
Speaker 1: did not think Biden had had as much on his
Speaker 1: fastball as he used to. Okay, so Biden wins. Do
Speaker 1: you both believe that the pressures of that office? I
Speaker 1: happen to believe that the presidency is the hardest job
Speaker 1: in the world. There's a reason why people go in
Speaker 1: to that job and for eight years later you can
Speaker 1: see the before and after pictures, and the aging is
Speaker 1: often dramatic. Yeah. Do you both believe with the pressures
Speaker 1: of that office that Joe Biden will be able to
Speaker 1: fulfill his four year term? Amy? I mean, this sounds
Speaker 1: like a cop out, but it remains to be seen.
Speaker 1: You know. I think his approvals so far are okay.
Speaker 1: I think that if he doesn't do what he needs
Speaker 1: to get done in terms of vaccinations, in terms of
Speaker 1: other things, I think I'm asking a different question though.
Speaker 1: My question is does he will he have the strength,
Speaker 1: the stamina, mental acuity, alertness to when you factor in
Speaker 1: the pressures of that job that are uniquely, you know,
Speaker 1: the hardest of I don't think anybody else can imagine.
Speaker 1: I don't care how big a company you run. There's
Speaker 1: no job with more pressure. You've got the world, the
Speaker 1: free world, on your shoulders here. That's a lot of pressure.
Speaker 1: I get that, and it's it's probably why a lot
Speaker 1: of people thought that he couldn't win. And you know,
Speaker 1: I think I mentioned to you before that Hillary Clinton
Speaker 1: and John Kerry thought that he couldn't win and wanted
Speaker 1: to enter the race, and we have that in the book.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it is a really high pressure job, and
Speaker 1: it's it'll be interesting to see what he can do.
Speaker 1: I mean, so far, I think that he's done okay,
Speaker 1: but it's been it's going to be a long trying
Speaker 1: for years for him, for sure. Well one event today
Speaker 1: not exactly the schedule of Donald Trump. Do you believe
Speaker 1: in any way, Jonathan Allen, that there are Democrats that
Speaker 1: know what I am describing that is that he's struggling
Speaker 1: cognitively and are covering for him and not being honest
Speaker 1: with the American people, and that they covered for him
Speaker 1: during this campaign. Do you believe that's a possibility. I
Speaker 1: believe Democrats were not straightforward about what they thought about
Speaker 1: his abilities on the campaign trail in the general the
Speaker 1: way you guys know you're never going to be invited
Speaker 1: to another media party your whole life, right, you know,
Speaker 1: you know you're going to be in exile like Hannity,
Speaker 1: Like me, I don't do it for the cocktail party show.
Speaker 1: But what I want to say is, you know, I
Speaker 1: think there are people that withheld what their thoughts were.
Speaker 1: But I think I do also think that that's not
Speaker 1: necessarily um you know, use your word, but like I
Speaker 1: don't necessarily think that's cognitive, but I think at least
Speaker 1: borders on it. John Carey was out there campaigning for
Speaker 1: Joe Biden, and I while watching him on the stump
Speaker 1: every day, was advising his Biden's advisors to what Biden
Speaker 1: have more more events where he spoke less because he
Speaker 1: thought Biden sucked for lack of a better term, on
Speaker 1: the campaign traw. I hope we can say that on
Speaker 1: your on your show. You could say whatever you want
Speaker 1: on the show where we actually are not part of
Speaker 1: the canceled culture. I don't call for any boycotts or
Speaker 1: anybody to be fired. You'd be very happy to know
Speaker 1: I'm not a part of that suppression of freedom of speech.
Speaker 1: Um No. I appreciate your honesty, Amy, you wanted to
Speaker 1: add something, No, I just I wanted to say. You know,
Speaker 1: I think what's what's good and real about this book is,
Speaker 1: you know, we're not here to make friends or enemies.
Speaker 1: We're here to as journalists, old school journalists. We're here
Speaker 1: to go right down the middle and tell the truth
Speaker 1: about both campaigns. And I feel like that's why this
Speaker 1: book is a must read for people in both parties. Well,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm very critical. I call it the media mob.
Speaker 1: I've said in two thousand and seven, Amy, the journalism
Speaker 1: in America's dead. With all due respect, the fact that
Speaker 1: conspiracy theories on Russia hoax were spread throughout the media
Speaker 1: for three straight years, and I have an Inspector General's
Speaker 1: report that absolutely verified my reporting was correct, and there's
Speaker 1: only a few of us that took the other side
Speaker 1: of that issue. I think it's an embarrassment to every
Speaker 1: major news organization in this country, and it's evidence that
Speaker 1: they are abusively biased and I'm wrong there for other
Speaker 1: news organizations, there's no way that we could sean But
Speaker 1: in terms of there's no way you could agree with me,
Speaker 1: But you'll tell me privately if it's off the record.
Speaker 1: Something would listen. Here's the reality. Trump Russia collusion never occurred.
Speaker 1: It never happened. We now know that Hillary Clinton there
Speaker 1: was Russian interference. She paid for a dirty Russian discon
Speaker 1: form Nation dossier. And by the way, both of you
Speaker 1: stopped me at any point when any fact that I'm
Speaker 1: giving out here you think is wrong. We know that
Speaker 1: that dirty dossier was put together by Christopher Steele. We
Speaker 1: know that Christopher Steele got the money through Hillary Clinton
Speaker 1: and the DNC funneled through Perkins COOEE, a law firm
Speaker 1: hiring Fusion GPS, paying Christopher Steele to do it. Christopher
Speaker 1: Steele was on record with the FBI in January of
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen admitting that he did it to help pillariated
Speaker 1: his track from her email server scandal. We know that
Speaker 1: the subsource for the dirty dossier. We know for a
Speaker 1: fact now too, that the subsource said none of that
Speaker 1: was ever meant to be used. It was all bar talk.
Speaker 1: Then we know that it says verified on the top
Speaker 1: of a FISA application, and yet they couldn't verify the
Speaker 1: dirty dossier, which according to Andrew McCabe, Sally Yates, and
Speaker 1: now even Jim Comey and Rod Rosenstein admit knowing what
Speaker 1: they known now, they wouldn't have signed those FISA applications.
Speaker 1: But it was the bulk of information, according to McCabe
Speaker 1: and Yates, of the dacier that allowed them to secure
Speaker 1: the warrant that they had first been denied. And then
Speaker 1: so we spied on a presidential candidate using false information
Speaker 1: from the other candidate from Russia that she paid for.
Speaker 1: And then we spied on a transition team, and then
Speaker 1: we spied on a president in the United States, and
Speaker 1: we also simultaneously destroyed the civil liberties of one guy
Speaker 1: by the name of Carter Paige. Anything that I'm saying
Speaker 1: here wrong, guys, I did not, actually I don't remember.
Speaker 1: Oh well it was. It was inside Hill. We called
Speaker 1: it inside Hillary Clinton's doomed campaign, and we get into
Speaker 1: that election as well. Is there anything that I said
Speaker 1: to you that you guys think is wrong. I'm not
Speaker 1: aware of any factual error in what you just said.
Speaker 1: And the media for three years in this country, and
Speaker 1: I'm going to let you guys off the hook, you
Speaker 1: know what, because you're already gonna get killed for just
Speaker 1: showing up on my show. So but I will tell you,
Speaker 1: the media for three years knowingly lied to the American people.
Speaker 1: How can we say, how do they claim to be
Speaker 1: journalists when they got it wrong? Now, if they would
Speaker 1: just admit the simple truth they got it wrong, say
Speaker 1: we're gonna do better, and we got caught up in
Speaker 1: the moment. That's never gonna happen. And that's sad for
Speaker 1: the country in my opinion. And yet the effort to
Speaker 1: cancel opinions always seem to be against conservatives of both
Speaker 1: of you. Noticed that on top of mister and missus
Speaker 1: Potato Head and pepe Lepew and Dumbo and Peter Pan
Speaker 1: and doctor Seuss. You know what they really my whole career,
Speaker 1: people have paid money to hope that they can get
Speaker 1: me canceled. Boycott get me canceled, you know, faint out?
Speaker 1: What do you mean? Will not work? No trying. Hey, listen,
Speaker 1: I think this is the best listen to radio show
Speaker 1: in America. If I'm not long, well thanks to this
Speaker 1: great audience. Yes, I'm very blessed, guys. I'm serious when
Speaker 1: I say this. I think it's gutsy of you guys
Speaker 1: to write the book. I didn't like the parts about Trump,
Speaker 1: but that's fine. I wasn't as interested, although it was
Speaker 1: interesting to hear what some people around the president had
Speaker 1: to say. But I think you guys have touched on something.
Speaker 1: There is a lane that's open in media. I'm just
Speaker 1: going to give you a humble advice. If you guys
Speaker 1: stick to what journalism should be, in my humble opinion,
Speaker 1: like you've done in this book, I think the American
Speaker 1: people will gravitate towards it and ways you wouldn't even imagine.
Speaker 1: In spite of not being invited to those cocktail parties
Speaker 1: that you mentioned. Jonathan, by the way, you want to
Speaker 1: know something cool. Twenty five years at Fox, how many
Speaker 1: Washington Correspondence dinners do you think I've ever attended. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go with zero. Am. I would agree with my
Speaker 1: co author, you guys win. We're going to put a
Speaker 1: link to your book up on Hannity dot com and
Speaker 1: thank you both for sharing time with us and sharing
Speaker 1: your insights and work. Thank you, Thanks so much. Eight
Speaker 1: hundred and nine for one, Shawn is our number. You
Speaker 1: want to be a part of the program, Let's say
Speaker 1: hi to Alex. He is in the socialist utopia of
Speaker 1: New York. Alex, how are you Hello, Sean, Thanks so
Speaker 1: much for taking my coals. So I was very disturbed
Speaker 1: when I heard the Democratic politicians are at being Governor
Speaker 1: Coma to resign because the accusations made against some of
Speaker 1: assaulting an arrassing woman, because the bigger issue is the
Speaker 1: Nursingham scandal that resulted in the deaths of thousands of
Speaker 1: innocent people. But I was also surprised that the Democratic
Speaker 1: establishment wasn't covering up for Governor Colma like they usually
Speaker 1: Lee would do for a fellow Democrat. So I want
Speaker 1: to share with you. I think what's going on here
Speaker 1: is that the Democratic Party is so embarrassed about the
Speaker 1: nursing hum scandal because they've been congratulating an applauding Governor
Speaker 1: Colmo for how he's been conducting himself throughout this epidemic.
Speaker 1: And they know that sooner or later there's going to
Speaker 1: be more information coming out about the home scandal and
Speaker 1: they're gonna have to impeach him for how he's been
Speaker 1: conducting himself throughout this epidemic. If rock rup they've been
Speaker 1: so they want him out of Wolfice now so that
Speaker 1: when the information comes out they can just shove it
Speaker 1: under the table and want up to take action because
Speaker 1: of it, since he'll be out of Wolfice already and
Speaker 1: now way they can get away of the shame. And
Speaker 1: they deserve the shame because they've been applauding him and
Speaker 1: congratulating him, even during the summer when everybody knew that
Speaker 1: something was wrong with those numbers. Everybody knew that he
Speaker 1: was somewhat lying about the nursing home, the deaths in
Speaker 1: the nursing room. You see. I take this position. I
Speaker 1: think Democrats hate Cuomo. This is not happening because of
Speaker 1: talk radio, Fox News conservatives. The only reason we are
Speaker 1: at this point is because of the Democrats in Albany,
Speaker 1: in New York and nationally. They don't want him to
Speaker 1: run for president. That's the only reason. I don't believe
Speaker 1: it's rooted in the principles of Oh my gosh, he
Speaker 1: knew in June that has marched twenty sixth executive order
Speaker 1: was becoming an unmitigated disaster, and we had nine thousand
Speaker 1: dead people in nursing homes. I don't think that's what
Speaker 1: what is motivating them. I maybe I'm just cynical. I've
Speaker 1: been doing this too long. I think what's motivating them
Speaker 1: is he's spent a bully to fellow Democrats and the media.
Speaker 1: And I think number two is national Democrats want them
Speaker 1: out because they're assuming twenty twenty four is going to
Speaker 1: be an open, open race for the presidency for Democrats.
Speaker 1: That's my guests think any chance I'm right, So I
Speaker 1: think there's no real unity in the Democratic Party. They
Speaker 1: both every man in the establishment doesn't like each other.
Speaker 1: They just cover up for each other because they're afraid
Speaker 1: of each other, because they all have bad information on
Speaker 1: the other one and they're just covering up for each other.
Speaker 1: And even if there's some truth, Listen, there's some truth
Speaker 1: to all that, and there's probably going to be retribution
Speaker 1: payback by Cuomo and his supporters for those that they
Speaker 1: you know, like would those that went against him, that
Speaker 1: they have their own dirt on Albany is a It's
Speaker 1: worse than the Washington sewer and swamp. It's much worse.
Speaker 1: As you know. You live in New York all right,
Speaker 1: from the State of New York to the socialist utopia
Speaker 1: of New York, to the Land of the Free and
Speaker 1: home of the brave, the great State of Florida. Let
Speaker 1: us say hi to Daniella is down there, Daniella, how
Speaker 1: are you glad you called? Hi? Hi? Son. It's oh
Speaker 1: my god, it's such an honor to talk to you.
Speaker 1: I always try to call, call, call, call a crazy
Speaker 1: and I never get through. Finally through, and I'm so
Speaker 1: HAPPYK you. I'm so glad you called. I'm so glad.
Speaker 1: I just wanted to call and say, um that the
Speaker 1: biggest the biggest threat I feel that we're kind of
Speaker 1: facing is censorship. I mean it's not we call it
Speaker 1: the cancel culture, but it's censorship and it should really
Speaker 1: be scaring every single one of us. I'm a the
Speaker 1: daughter of immigrants. I was born in Santago, the Chila.
Speaker 1: My parents actually escaped Communism. When Ayenda was in power,
Speaker 1: everybody had money. There was inflation like you couldn't believe.
Speaker 1: And I'm not making this up. My father used to
Speaker 1: have to go with the suitcase of money to go
Speaker 1: buy bread, and sometimes the day before and wait in
Speaker 1: line to you know, to get some bread. That's slowly
Speaker 1: I feel like things like that are slowly happening here.
Speaker 1: I'll have conversations with my father, and my father says,
Speaker 1: I can't believe that I escaped Chilah to kind of
Speaker 1: relive this all over again, and you're starting to see
Speaker 1: it little by little as they start silencing different people,
Speaker 1: they start shutting down different industries, they start targeting different
Speaker 1: manufacturers and things like that, as you see with Mike Lindo.
Speaker 1: I just think that it's something that we really need
Speaker 1: a real leader to step up in the conservative arena,
Speaker 1: a real leader that's not afraid. And I think that
Speaker 1: that's what Trump and I. You had once asked you
Speaker 1: didn't know what made Trump so popular, and me being
Speaker 1: a Latina being an immigrant. For me, what I think
Speaker 1: make Trump, makes Trump so great is that he makes
Speaker 1: you love your country. I never ever loved my country
Speaker 1: the way he made me love my country. I'm from Queens,
Speaker 1: He's from Queens. I get the way he talks. I
Speaker 1: get Trump. It's the waiting, Daniel Danielle, I want to
Speaker 1: give you your own show. What a beautiful story, What
Speaker 1: a great reminder of what we have and we often
Speaker 1: take for granted. I hope, as as Americans now see
Speaker 1: the negativity that is associated with this phony agenda of socialism,
Speaker 1: that people like you, like you well appreciate the freedoms
Speaker 1: that we kind of take for granted here story about
Speaker 1: your dad's unbelievable unbelievable a loaf of bread. I wish
Speaker 1: I had more time. I'm on a hard break here,
Speaker 1: but Danielle, please called back. I would love to hear
Speaker 1: from you often. Okay, eight hundred and nine four one sewn.
Speaker 1: You want to be a part of the program. Right
Speaker 1: to the phones when we get back. News round Up
Speaker 1: Information Overload Hour coming up straight ahead too, all right,
Speaker 1: News Roundup Information Overload Hour. Glad you are with us.
Speaker 1: We'll get to your calls at the bottom of this
Speaker 1: half hour. You know, do you ever think you're living
Speaker 1: in America? Living in a time where Doctor Seuss is canceled,
Speaker 1: where mister and missus potato head. That's what we're talking about.
Speaker 1: That we'd have new inclusiveness guidelines that say we can't
Speaker 1: use the term mom and dad, or suggest we don't
Speaker 1: or not only can't say Merry Christmas, you can't even
Speaker 1: say happy Holidays, and you can't even say, hey, what'd
Speaker 1: you do on your vacation? Would you go anywhere? Normal conversation?
Speaker 1: You know, But it's it's not only that, then it's
Speaker 1: Peter Pan and Dumbo on the chopping block. Pepe Lepew
Speaker 1: is on the chopping block, and I'm sitting here thinking, wow,
Speaker 1: how did this happen? How did we get to this point?
Speaker 1: Juxtaposed that with Piers Morgan having a government agency looking
Speaker 1: into his opinions that were expressed on television in Great Britain.
Speaker 1: We're gonna is that coming to America sometimes soon? You
Speaker 1: know this Grace Church School, you know issue unbelievable. You
Speaker 1: look at where we are where now people in red
Speaker 1: states that elect fiscally responsible governors, fiscally responsible state legislatures,
Speaker 1: They balance their budget, keep taxes low, and fund their pensions.
Speaker 1: And now you've got a one point nine so called
Speaker 1: COVID emergency relief bailout, of which only nine percent is
Speaker 1: going to COVID emergency relief. A lot of the Moneys
Speaker 1: are spending twenty twenty two, twenty twenty four, even as
Speaker 1: late as twenty twenty eight. And you find out that
Speaker 1: red states now will be bailing out states and rewarding
Speaker 1: states for electing big tax and spend failed liberal democrats
Speaker 1: that have been running these states for decades. And then
Speaker 1: you add hr one on top of it. Felons will
Speaker 1: vote automatic registration, massive mail in balloting with zero identification requirements.
Speaker 1: Now you need identification to get into the Capitol if
Speaker 1: you ever go visit, if you ever go to a
Speaker 1: Democratic National convention. Not that I like going, but every
Speaker 1: four years I'm usually forced to go to do coverage
Speaker 1: surrounded by yeah, some really strong guys that look pretty
Speaker 1: mean and tough, basically guys for my dojo. But that
Speaker 1: is Washington, that is the country. Now, this is in
Speaker 1: fifty one days. Joe Biden's America. He's a new congressman.
Speaker 1: He's elected from the great state of Utah. He's been
Speaker 1: a friend of this program for a long time. Burgess
Speaker 1: Owens is with us. I don't know, Burgess. Maybe I'm
Speaker 1: all fashioned. I don't have a problem saying mom and Dad.
Speaker 1: I've been looking at you know, people find defensive in
Speaker 1: Doctor Seuss and you know why people Why would people
Speaker 1: be offended by happy holidays or what you do on
Speaker 1: your vacation. I don't get that either. I've watched Dumbo.
Speaker 1: I like the Dumbo makes people cry. It's a good
Speaker 1: message about you know, treat everybody nicely. That's my remembering.
Speaker 1: Some I haven't watched their reads recently, said on home
Speaker 1: me to account here, what Sean, you're you're talking old
Speaker 1: school common sense with our great last clear generation taught us,
Speaker 1: you know, about the love of God comes to his family,
Speaker 1: respect to women in authority and uh, and it's it's
Speaker 1: it's gonna be an interesting process. I think the positives
Speaker 1: coming out of this is that, you know, we've been
Speaker 1: talking about the evil of Marxism socialism for a long time.
Speaker 1: You know, the the the misery has brought wherever it's been,
Speaker 1: wherever's been tried, the murder of over one hundred million
Speaker 1: people this last last century. And it's one thing to
Speaker 1: talk about it, there's nothing to actually experience it. And
Speaker 1: so we're having a time now, I think is really
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, it's going to be
Speaker 1: a good thing for America. We need to see contrast
Speaker 1: every nound then and what we see, because we are
Speaker 1: a country that always drifts towards the light, we love freedom.
Speaker 1: We kind of get into this bubble of raising our family,
Speaker 1: going on our vacations, getting our retirement, and we can
Speaker 1: sometimes forget this evil at our doorstep every single second.
Speaker 1: And that evil is a godless ideology of Marktism and socialism.
Speaker 1: So now all of a sudden, we're having this conversations
Speaker 1: that we never thought we'll ever have. Who ever thought
Speaker 1: to trying to think about this. We cannot open our business,
Speaker 1: can't put our kids in school, can't go to church.
Speaker 1: Never ever thought this could have happened. Well, it's happened
Speaker 1: to us. And because it is, we're having conversations we
Speaker 1: never would have before. So the difference is this, we
Speaker 1: now can see what the left looks like. It's dark,
Speaker 1: is angry, and it's a place that America will never
Speaker 1: ever go on purpose. And the other side of it
Speaker 1: is is we dream, we overcome, we risk, we fail,
Speaker 1: we get back up again. We believe that men should
Speaker 1: do what men do, protect, provide, sacrifice anything for their
Speaker 1: wife and their family. Guys like us, they're gonna start calling,
Speaker 1: you know, Fred Flintstone. I guess yeah, and let them
Speaker 1: do that. It's okay, Wait a minute, Can I be
Speaker 1: Bam bam and you can be Fred Flintstone. Can we switch? Well,
Speaker 1: probably they're going to cancel the Flintstones. I don't know.
Speaker 1: There's probably something wrong in there somewhere. Maybe it's abusive
Speaker 1: towards abuse towards dinosaurs. I don't know, do know? The dinosaur. Yeah. Well,
Speaker 1: the deal is is that when you when you care
Speaker 1: about those products that just talked about, who cares what
Speaker 1: they call us? I mean seriously. Uh, And that's that's
Speaker 1: the that's the thing that our country can get back to.
Speaker 1: I think coming out of this, we're gonna have more
Speaker 1: conversations with good people Democrats and Republicans, independents who love
Speaker 1: our country, and we can finally say for once, you
Speaker 1: know what, guys, we might disagree on how we get there,
Speaker 1: we have the same endgame. But the most important thing
Speaker 1: is we do not want to be overcome by this
Speaker 1: evil ideology that hates all of us, that hates our culture,
Speaker 1: and it's been after us forever. We're just now finally
Speaker 1: seeing what's happening because we had a president to say,
Speaker 1: you know what, We're not gonna put up with it.
Speaker 1: America first, love our country, blad countries, I am, we
Speaker 1: all that stuff and uh. And I love the fact
Speaker 1: that we have so many I listened to your last caller. Um,
Speaker 1: it makes us feel good to know that we are
Speaker 1: part of the culture that's done so well. So we're
Speaker 1: gonna we're gonna see what We're gonna see what they're
Speaker 1: trying to go out, then they're gonna try to change
Speaker 1: our history. Of course, because we have such a great
Speaker 1: history of what we've done together and this new in
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two, we're hanging there. We do what we
Speaker 1: have to do on the ground. Grassroots, don't wait, don't
Speaker 1: don't wait for people in DC to do things. Get
Speaker 1: involved with your school system. Uh, get involved with your
Speaker 1: with your your local businesses, and let's make sure things
Speaker 1: we the people are making the change. It's spending the
Speaker 1: right people in place, and believe in twenty twenty two
Speaker 1: and twenty twenty four will show up and we get
Speaker 1: our country back and head back in the right direction.
Speaker 1: And no we were part of the process would happened.
Speaker 1: I am so happy I've gotten to know you now
Speaker 1: in the last number of years. I'm so happy you're
Speaker 1: in Congress. I really am. I wish every Republican could
Speaker 1: just just express what you just simply expressed. I really do. Well. No,
Speaker 1: I bet you're like me. There's a great Paul Harvey.
Speaker 1: I should play it next week. I'll play it. You
Speaker 1: know what he talks about American farmers. Now, I know
Speaker 1: they don't get accolades, and they don't get talked about.
Speaker 1: And maybe because you're a congressman and a former NFL
Speaker 1: player and I'm in the public guy, people, we kind
Speaker 1: of get accolades we really don't deserve in my humble opinion.
Speaker 1: But anyway, that's neither here. We never You think of
Speaker 1: every single thing that you see in your grocery store,
Speaker 1: and you could pretty much trace most of it back
Speaker 1: to farmers. And you trace you know, I had a
Speaker 1: trucker call, and I had a farmer called this program.
Speaker 1: Farmer was on his tractory called in. I was so
Speaker 1: honored he called. Had a truck driver call in. So
Speaker 1: honored he called because they feed all of us. And yeah,
Speaker 1: I think oranges are a little overpriced. At my grocery store.
Speaker 1: You get ten big ones for ten bucks. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm you know, I'm old school. I'd rather
Speaker 1: have it for eight though seven, you know, But you
Speaker 1: think about it. Then they got this farmer's bill. Now,
Speaker 1: farmers that were hurt through no fault of their own
Speaker 1: from COVID, they deserve help. Yeah, Congressman, they really do.
Speaker 1: I'm involved for that. But why are we saying, Okay,
Speaker 1: if you're a minority, get more help than this other farmer.
Speaker 1: Why don't we do it on a per need basis
Speaker 1: and treat all our farmers with appreciation and respect for
Speaker 1: the hard work they do and all they do for
Speaker 1: all of us every day. Yeah, well, o, Sean, that's
Speaker 1: what racists do. We have to understand this. And racists
Speaker 1: come in all colors. By the way, whenever you judge
Speaker 1: people by the color of skin, and you pre judge them,
Speaker 1: you put them down, or you hate them or you
Speaker 1: don't like that's what's called racism. And I don't care
Speaker 1: who it is. I learned this long time ago when
Speaker 1: my mom taught me a great lesson. Don't say they're bergie.
Speaker 1: Don't lest somebody else probably become yours. I learned a
Speaker 1: long time ago. The worst thing you can be as
Speaker 1: a racist, because you have to live with yourself. You're
Speaker 1: angry all the time. And I don't care. At this point,
Speaker 1: we have to have to make sure American people don't
Speaker 1: think there's something cool about looking down on another race.
Speaker 1: Don't think something there's something of magnanimous by saying that
Speaker 1: I am my color makes me so much more privileged
Speaker 1: in your color. That is what's called racism. And I'll
Speaker 1: be honest with you, that's not who we are. We're
Speaker 1: country based on Jadea Cristian values and because of that,
Speaker 1: every generation has gotten better and looking at each other
Speaker 1: inside out or southside end. We were doing such a
Speaker 1: great job until Obamba came along, and now we have
Speaker 1: the hard left. My democratic friends, beware of the heart left.
Speaker 1: They're not your friends, They're not my friends, and that
Speaker 1: they are American friends. They want to divide us and
Speaker 1: every way they can because they love the fact that
Speaker 1: we hate each other. That's not America. So I understand
Speaker 1: that this contract is going allow us to have some
Speaker 1: really good conversations. And I think the biggest thing is
Speaker 1: gonna come out of it is now we don't have
Speaker 1: to wonder anymore hypothetically what Marxism and socialism looks like.
Speaker 1: We can say in real term, in real time, this
Speaker 1: is how it feels. I want nothing to do with it.
Speaker 1: I want to go back to freedom. And this is
Speaker 1: the thing I think coming out of our new unsung
Speaker 1: heroes out of this process are going to be our
Speaker 1: small business owners, those who get out there every single
Speaker 1: day to get up early. They take risks, they fall
Speaker 1: flout in the face to get back burgess. I hate,
Speaker 1: I hate to burst your positive positivity bubble here when
Speaker 1: they get whacked with higher taxes and burden some regulation.
Speaker 1: A lot of these guys, it's not it's not possible
Speaker 1: for them to do exactly what they are great at doing.
Speaker 1: It's gonna make everything harder, if not if possible, Sean,
Speaker 1: it's gonna be harder. But but Americans, we come back,
Speaker 1: and it might not be the way we wanted to
Speaker 1: have it happened, might not be as easy. Listen, I
Speaker 1: never ever, ever wanted to be a chimney sweep after
Speaker 1: being an NFL player, But it was the greatest thing
Speaker 1: that happened because the lessons I learned and things that
Speaker 1: can now tell people and tell people say that you
Speaker 1: say a little more slowly, okay when I when I
Speaker 1: lift in the fls after running a business, I failed
Speaker 1: big time and for a few months out of chimney
Speaker 1: sweep and a security guard, and it was one of
Speaker 1: the most miserable times in terms of pumbleness. Never wanted
Speaker 1: to be there. But guess what, I look back on
Speaker 1: it now and I can tell anyone who comes to
Speaker 1: this country who lost to live two hobstacles. If I
Speaker 1: can do it, you can do it. That's the American way.
Speaker 1: So yes, we have a lot of business owners out
Speaker 1: there is going to come in you. So after you
Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl, you were sweeping clean chimneys. That's right,
Speaker 1: that's right in New York City. I thought, no way,
Speaker 1: So let me ask you. Did you I'm not trying
Speaker 1: to be nosy. You can only share what you want. Um.
Speaker 1: We hear the term broke athlete a lot. Now. The
Speaker 1: average NFL career for somebody's three three and it's actually
Speaker 1: three and a half years. You had a longer career
Speaker 1: than that. I would assume you you made it quite
Speaker 1: a bit of money. What happened would happened? Or this
Speaker 1: what happens when you leave the NFL as a cocular
Speaker 1: role and you think I'll have to throw money at
Speaker 1: it and work real hard. Yeah, that's what happens. But
Speaker 1: here's the thing. It was because of the way I
Speaker 1: was raised. I was taught you do anything. A man
Speaker 1: would do anything that has to do that's honest and
Speaker 1: hard to kick of his family. And at that time,
Speaker 1: we didn't have uber. I wish it were did. I
Speaker 1: would have done that at heartbeat. But the only thing
Speaker 1: I find it was the Chimneys Week and I did it.
Speaker 1: I came out of it for the next twenty five
Speaker 1: years being a corporate account and corporate account executive. So
Speaker 1: I came out of it. But the most of the
Speaker 1: things are lesson that I learned during that time. And
Speaker 1: I remember thinking, this is gonna be for your good
Speaker 1: living in a four bedroom and in a one bedroom
Speaker 1: apartment in Brooklyn, New York, gunfire outside and four kids,
Speaker 1: and I said, at some point this is gonna be
Speaker 1: for my good, and it did. I can now talk
Speaker 1: to anyone about this country. It's a place of second
Speaker 1: chance this period. So for those business owners out there,
Speaker 1: I know it's tough hanging there. This country will give
Speaker 1: you a chance to bounce back and be stronger and better.
Speaker 1: And the message you'll give thro the rest of our
Speaker 1: country is what we need to hear now. At the
Speaker 1: end of the day, our small business owners with the
Speaker 1: entrepreneur spirit will bring our country back and give us
Speaker 1: even a better foundation moving forward about what the fight against.
Speaker 1: When it comes down this, this socialist and Marxist anti
Speaker 1: capitalist ideology, what an inspiring story. I'm fascinated by its
Speaker 1: continue Congressman Burgess Owen's the great state of Utah. So
Speaker 1: I recently did some renovation work at my house and
Speaker 1: and I hired these guys that were hanging wallpaper, right,
Speaker 1: I did that for years. I made good money out
Speaker 1: it was a house painter in wallpaper. I learned I
Speaker 1: how to lay tile. I did renovation work, construction. I
Speaker 1: mean I did that for almost ten years of my life.
Speaker 1: And I walk I'm talking to these guys for like
Speaker 1: an hour today, and I think they were kind of
Speaker 1: shocked that I said, yeah, I had the exact same table.
Speaker 1: This is how I did this, this, this, and this,
Speaker 1: and we saw talking about it, and I said, that's
Speaker 1: actually how I got into radio. I was doing construction
Speaker 1: and I had to call in the radio shows. And
Speaker 1: then I realized, well, if this idiot do I don't
Speaker 1: think it is very good, can do it? Let me
Speaker 1: try it. That's what happened. Yeah good. I think it's
Speaker 1: real quick. Because the first time I chance to tell
Speaker 1: the story was two or three years after I called
Speaker 1: in the Russian the ball and Russ really kind of
Speaker 1: been resonated to that, and he made a statement, that's
Speaker 1: what I think we were connected. I said, I said, RUSSI,
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, the black issue will
Speaker 1: be handled by Black Americans who dig in and just
Speaker 1: tell the story about history and what we could do
Speaker 1: in this p in our future's gonna be up to us.
Speaker 1: Of course, it's gonna have all of Americans helping us.
Speaker 1: But the end of the day, we have to give
Speaker 1: a message. And I think that was what would resonated.
Speaker 1: At that point, I said, I'm going to write a book,
Speaker 1: and that book allowed me to get old Fox, and
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, all the things I'm doing now
Speaker 1: started again from a conversation with Rush that allowed me
Speaker 1: to say at one point, I'm gonna tell this story,
Speaker 1: And telling that story twenty years plus years years later
Speaker 1: allowed me to now have a position where I can
Speaker 1: really make a difference in a different way. What a
Speaker 1: voice that we lost. I still am in a state
Speaker 1: of shock, to be honest about it. Yeah, And I
Speaker 1: can't imagine with all that's going on in the world
Speaker 1: right now not hearing his voice. But what a great
Speaker 1: story that you're telling. And by the way, the person
Speaker 1: you're describing that is that always believed in That was Rush.
Speaker 1: That's right, always, that's right, And I would actually and
Speaker 1: that Dame, I was a work work perfect. I would
Speaker 1: set my appointment up so that was on the road.
Speaker 1: Listen to Chel on our radio because I was a
Speaker 1: new conservative and I wanted to hear the voice. And
Speaker 1: I wish I had more time to delve into this
Speaker 1: with you, but I gotta roll. M You're a good man.
Speaker 1: God bless you, Burgess Owes. I'm so glad you're there,
Speaker 1: and we need all of Congress to be like you.
Speaker 1: Honestly appreciate it. By the way, call my friend Persia Walker,
Speaker 1: say run herschel run. I wanted to run for Senate.
Speaker 1: All right, we'll do buddy, my friend, God bless you,
Speaker 1: quick break right back. I'm to the top of the hour.
Speaker 1: We'll get to your calls here in just a second. Listen,
Speaker 1: I warned you about all that the Democrats were planning.
Speaker 1: What did I say, Yeah, live free or die America
Speaker 1: in the world on the brink. It's now we're at
Speaker 1: the on the brink point the one point nine trillion
Speaker 1: dollar baillout Blue State baillout. Yeah, I mean the amount
Speaker 1: of money we are talking about, how little is actually
Speaker 1: going for COVID emergency relief is unconscionable. Then, of course
Speaker 1: they're investigating the whole idea of stacking the courts with
Speaker 1: liberal activists justices. As we said, Yes, and they're also
Speaker 1: examining statehood for DC and Puerto Rico. Yes, higher taxes
Speaker 1: are all coming. They even snuck in about sixty billion
Speaker 1: in tax hikes in the so called called emergency bill
Speaker 1: on COVID. And it goes on and on and on,
Speaker 1: and it's only the beginning. Remember they want another two
Speaker 1: trillion now for the Green New Deal. Is only a
Speaker 1: down payment. This week they set their sights on your
Speaker 1: Second Amendment rights. Congressman Chip Roy from the great State
Speaker 1: of Texas says, no, I'm not giving you a list
Speaker 1: of what my guns are, you know, I mean the
Speaker 1: ninety four so weapons. Man, it didn't apply to weapons
Speaker 1: that were purchased before in nineteen ninety four. What would
Speaker 1: you do about the millions of specifically assault weapons that
Speaker 1: are already in circulation. What do you do about those? Well,
Speaker 1: there are approximately five million. To your point, Craig, we
Speaker 1: have to have a buyback program, and I support a
Speaker 1: manager toy buyback program. It's got to be smart. We
Speaker 1: got to do it the right way. But there are
Speaker 1: five million, at least some estimate as many as ten million,
Speaker 1: and we're going to have to have smart public policy
Speaker 1: that's about taking those off the streets, but doing it
Speaker 1: in the right way. Two gun owners out there who say, well,
Speaker 1: a Biden administration means they're going to come from my guns, Bingo,
Speaker 1: You're right. If you have an assault weapon, the fact
Speaker 1: of the matter is they should be illegal. Period. The
Speaker 1: government is never going to know what weapons I own.
Speaker 1: Let me be clear about that. It's not gonna happen,
Speaker 1: all right. Congressman ship Roy Texas joins us. Now, this
Speaker 1: is a very real effort, this is a real push.
Speaker 1: Now you've got Chucky Schumer promising a vote on what
Speaker 1: is an anti Second Amendment bill from the House, which
Speaker 1: is not good. And I am very concerned, and I'm
Speaker 1: not sure why ten Republicans went along with this crap. Well, Sean, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm one hundred percent agreement with you, and
Speaker 1: it really is a problem. This is what Democrats are
Speaker 1: purposely trying to do. They're trying to use this idea
Speaker 1: of quote universal background checks to jam through a gun registry,
Speaker 1: and as you noted on the floor of the House,
Speaker 1: I took issue with this, and Sean, I'm a former
Speaker 1: federal prosecutor. I've put a lot of bad guys in jail,
Speaker 1: bad guys who deserve to be in jail. Neither you
Speaker 1: nor I or anybody else I know who are pro
Speaker 1: Second Amendment want bad guys running around with guns. But
Speaker 1: what we do want is for American cities, American citizens
Speaker 1: to be able to defend themselves. And Democrats right now
Speaker 1: are opening the border wide, allowing cartels to run them buck,
Speaker 1: endangering Texans, endangering Americans, endangering the immigrants you want to
Speaker 1: come here. Meanwhile, defunding the police department, taking away every
Speaker 1: way we can to have saved communities. And then they
Speaker 1: want to give us a lecture about what they're going
Speaker 1: to do with our guns. Oh, we're not taking your gun, bull,
Speaker 1: We know what they're trying to do. They want this
Speaker 1: universal background check to create a registry so they can
Speaker 1: track our weapons and ultimately be able to tell us
Speaker 1: which ones we can keeping, which ones we can So
Speaker 1: I'm pretty clear on the floor of the House, Representative,
Speaker 1: We're not going to play that game. And you're right,
Speaker 1: ten Republicans should be ashamed of themselves for supporting this legislation,
Speaker 1: and right now, every West Virginian ought to be burning
Speaker 1: the phones down if Joe Manchin's office telling him not
Speaker 1: to succumb to this. No West Virginian wants this. I
Speaker 1: assure you my audience knows this. You may not know this,
Speaker 1: but my mom was a prison guard, my dad worked
Speaker 1: in family corp probation. And I was the incorrigible, curious
Speaker 1: kid in the house. And because they didn't have like
Speaker 1: the fingerprint safe like I have next to my bed
Speaker 1: where nobody can get to my weapons, or that that
Speaker 1: particular weapon a pistol. I've been in pistol marksman since
Speaker 1: I'm eleven years old. Now let me tell you how
Speaker 1: bad it is in New York. I have had to
Speaker 1: on numerous occasions literally either melt down or exchange or
Speaker 1: have modified weapons that I legally own because they change
Speaker 1: the laws. When Governor Cuomo screaming, you know, nobody needs
Speaker 1: ten bullets to kill a year, he actually said that
Speaker 1: it's simple. No one hunts with an assault trifle. No
Speaker 1: one needs ten bullets to kill a deer, and they
Speaker 1: put it down to seven bullets in the magazine. I
Speaker 1: had to go through all my magazines. Make sure there's
Speaker 1: only seven bullets in it, because you and I both
Speaker 1: know Congressman Sean Hannity violates the law if he spits
Speaker 1: on the sidewalkers caught jaywalking, that I'd go to jail,
Speaker 1: probably in perpetuity. So I've had to do that because
Speaker 1: I do obey the laws, and there's no shot in
Speaker 1: hell I'm going to be able to fix the laws
Speaker 1: in New York the way this state has gone so
Speaker 1: radically left. Now, you're completely right, and this is at
Speaker 1: the end of the day, what we've got to do
Speaker 1: at the state level is gets to be the one
Speaker 1: collectively pushing back against a federal government that is stamping
Speaker 1: all over our individual rights. Right. I mean, government exists
Speaker 1: to defend our rights. It's the whole point of the Constitution. Rights,
Speaker 1: defend our God given rights to secure the blessings of liberty. Right,
Speaker 1: that's the language our founders used. We need to make
Speaker 1: our states stand on the line with us, and we
Speaker 1: as citizens have got to hold the line and basically
Speaker 1: just say no. And look, I realized this gets a
Speaker 1: little touchy, it gets a little tough. I'm a rule
Speaker 1: of law guy, so were you. But at the end
Speaker 1: of the day, God given rights are what they are,
Speaker 1: and we need to be sending a loud signal message
Speaker 1: to Democrats that they don't get to trample our constitutional
Speaker 1: rights while we just wait around for some judge to
Speaker 1: tell us whether or not they're going to okay. That
Speaker 1: these are in fact God given rights that the Constitution reflects,
Speaker 1: and importantly it goes to the security of our community.
Speaker 1: Sean again, as Democrats are pulling away the very basic
Speaker 1: function of government to secure our border wide open borders
Speaker 1: one hundred thousand immigrants in February that were apprehended six
Speaker 1: sound in a day. That's not talking about the godaways, cartels,
Speaker 1: fednel coming across our border, the endangered American citizens, the
Speaker 1: high speed chases in counties that I represent. John in
Speaker 1: Texas Mayor's calling and begging for help because Biden is
Speaker 1: either purposely or incompetently ignoring his duty to actually defend
Speaker 1: the Constitution. I find it ironic the Democrats went after
Speaker 1: Trump twice to impeach him. When Biden is straight up
Speaker 1: ignoring his duty to take care that the laws of
Speaker 1: the United States are faithfully executed, you are to talking
Speaker 1: about impeachment. Impeach a president for failing to do his duty,
Speaker 1: for failing to uphold the Constitution, for failing to secure
Speaker 1: the board of the United States, and then daring to
Speaker 1: take away our god given rights to defend ourselves when
Speaker 1: the government doesn't do its duty. It's absolutely shocking what
Speaker 1: we're seeing happen in this administration. I hope Americans hear you,
Speaker 1: because this is a dire warning if you like me
Speaker 1: and like you, if you believe in our Second Amendment rights.
Speaker 1: It sounds like they're gonna want to have a registration
Speaker 1: of firearms. That what's going to happen next. Then they're
Speaker 1: gonna limit how many guns you can have. You know, Um,
Speaker 1: I happen to have a pretty large collection myself. It's
Speaker 1: a collection. I like to collect things, right, But but
Speaker 1: you lost it on that boating accident. Let's just be clear, Listen,
Speaker 1: I don't think you believe me. I've had to have
Speaker 1: weapons that became outlawed, melted down. Do you understand how
Speaker 1: profound that is? Because I because you know what I know,
Speaker 1: if somebody came into my house and I would be
Speaker 1: put in jail forever, I can't. I can't risk it.
Speaker 1: That's how well that's what we're facing. We're facing the
Speaker 1: totalitarian the tyrants who want to tell us how to live,
Speaker 1: and it's directly contrary to or abounding. And you're right.
Speaker 1: They want to tax ammunition, they want to decrease the
Speaker 1: ambaiblity to get magazines. They want to increase liability and
Speaker 1: go after manufacturers have gun to hold them liable for
Speaker 1: what bad actors do. They want to be able to
Speaker 1: restrict your ability of what kind of weapon you can own.
Speaker 1: They wanted to find it. They wanted to say, oh,
Speaker 1: you can have a little twenty gage single shot shotgun
Speaker 1: or a little twenty two, but no, you can't have
Speaker 1: anything else. You better not miss. Yeah, that's right, you know.
Speaker 1: And by the way, under any even professionals under real stress,
Speaker 1: real life circumstances can freeze and you may think you're
Speaker 1: going to act a certain way and you may not.
Speaker 1: But Congressman, it's always good to talk to you. Thank
Speaker 1: you for what you're doing. It's important work, and we
Speaker 1: hope you'll continue to be as outspoken as you are
Speaker 1: on this. Thank you, we will Sean God bless you
Speaker 1: keeping what you're doing to my friend. All right, my friend,
Speaker 1: thank you. The great State of Florida, a free state. Rod,
Speaker 1: thanks for checking in. How are you, sir? Yeah, good afternoon, Sehan,
Speaker 1: Greetings and salutations from a free state of Florida and salutations.
Speaker 1: I love that phrase. Go ahead, sir. I just wanted
Speaker 1: to just a quick thought on the border there. I'm
Speaker 1: curious as to how the Democrats are going to play
Speaker 1: this because right now the numbers are going down and
Speaker 1: they're bringing in these illegal immigrants and most of them
Speaker 1: have not been tested. However, the majority are children. So
Speaker 1: if the disease doesn't affect children the way it affects adults,
Speaker 1: are the Democrats going to backtrack and say, well, you know,
Speaker 1: we have a ninety eight percent recovery rate for this
Speaker 1: and it's not as bad as what was actually reported.
Speaker 1: So are they going to throw a fout here to
Speaker 1: the bus when they do this or what? I don't know,
Speaker 1: but I do know this, Thank god, Rhonda Santis was
Speaker 1: your governor. Rhonda Santis. Look very early on PEAT, member,
Speaker 1: people were mad last year's spring breaker. He's flowing spring breakers. Okay,
Speaker 1: there was one thing that actually the dopey you know
Speaker 1: experts got right, the ones that had the phony models
Speaker 1: and predictions, and you know all of that. The one
Speaker 1: thing they got right was protect the elderly. That was
Speaker 1: the one thing that remained constant, you know, a week ago,
Speaker 1: a year ago, this week, Fauci, a mask isn't gonna
Speaker 1: help you, you know, at the same time this time
Speaker 1: last year, Cuomo, I know, I speak for de Mayor
Speaker 1: on this. We all New York Is, and I can
Speaker 1: say we have the best healthcare system be in the
Speaker 1: entire whale. We're not like those other countries. That's him,
Speaker 1: and he was wrong, and Donald Trump bailed him out
Speaker 1: then two and they still sent these people into nursing homes.
Speaker 1: It's it's really sad that this is, this is what
Speaker 1: we're dealing with. And when you think about forty two thousand,
Speaker 1: nine hundred and eighteen votes and Donald Trump gets reelected,
Speaker 1: it's so infuriating at times when I stop and I
Speaker 1: pause and I think, and all that we know that happened,
Speaker 1: that shouldn't happen, All the laws that were just not
Speaker 1: adhered to, all the state constitutions by passed, you know,
Speaker 1: all of the COVID restrictions, you know, as an excuse
Speaker 1: they didn't listen to Fauci. You said it was safe
Speaker 1: to vote in person as long as you're socially distanced
Speaker 1: and or a mask. It's very, very frustrating. But I
Speaker 1: will tell you there's going to be a moment between
Speaker 1: now and November twenty twenty two. It's going to be
Speaker 1: I'll even give it a name. It probably won't be
Speaker 1: the name. It will be the Tea Party two point
Speaker 1: zero on steroids and human growth hormone. Because the seventy
Speaker 1: five million of us that went out to support America First,
Speaker 1: make America great again, and even those that are discouraged
Speaker 1: now they're going to be back and their voices will
Speaker 1: be heard, and we will realize that we have an obligation,
Speaker 1: a patriotic duty to fight for the cause of liberty,
Speaker 1: not physically politically okay, for the cause of liberty and
Speaker 1: freedom because what they're doing is destroying our economy. What
Speaker 1: they're doing are they are taking away our fundamental basic rights.
Speaker 1: And Americans are only going to put up with so
Speaker 1: much of this radicalism and there's going to be the
Speaker 1: straw that breaks the camels back and this country is
Speaker 1: going to unite. I promise you by election day twenty
Speaker 1: twenty two. You think I'm wrong? Do you think I
Speaker 1: might be right. No, I think you're right, and just
Speaker 1: Governor of Santis has done a phenomenal job. I mean,
Speaker 1: right now they're trying to target them. They're saying that
Speaker 1: he went one after an elect specific neighborhoods for money
Speaker 1: and that kind of thing. But what people don't realize
Speaker 1: is that the neighborhoods that he's targeted have been the
Speaker 1: ones that have not gotten the vaccine. And he's not
Speaker 1: targeting money, he's targeting age. So you know, that's what
Speaker 1: he's done the whole time. He mobilized every single Florida
Speaker 1: state agency, every one of them, to protect the elderly.
Speaker 1: And it worked. Cuomo screwed it up, Murphy screwed it up,
Speaker 1: Wolf screwed it up. Newsom screwed it up. Shut down.
Speaker 1: You know Governor Whitmer in Michigan screwed it up. The
Speaker 1: Santist going to have to pay for it. Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you have no ink state income Taxtually your money's going
Speaker 1: straight to New York, New Jersey and California. My friend,
Speaker 1: they're gonna they're gonna take it right out of your pocket.
Speaker 1: And it's not fair. And by the way, I will
Speaker 1: be the beneficiary beneficiary of it, and I'm telling you
Speaker 1: it's not right. I don't even I don't want it.
Speaker 1: And by the way, my taxes went up under Donald
Speaker 1: Trump because the state income tax deduction, which was unfair
Speaker 1: to people in red states that have fiscally responsible politicians.
Speaker 1: They don't have the need for that deduction like we did. Right,
Speaker 1: that's gonna wrap things up for today. Yes, it looks
Speaker 1: like it may be the end for Andrew Cuomo. Greg
Speaker 1: Jared joins us tonight, Congressman Lee Zelden, Stephen Miller, Matt Gates,
Speaker 1: Lara Logan, Dan Patrick, Matt Gate, and others everyone else
