0:01:04.480 --> 0:01:10.240
<v Speaker 1>love this pillow. Tuesday, Syrian dictator Bishare all of a

0:01:10.240 --> 0:01:17.640
<v Speaker 1>sudden launched a horrible chemical weapons attack on innocent civilians.

0:01:18.760 --> 0:01:23.520
<v Speaker 1>Using a deadly nerve agent, ASSAD choked out the lives

0:01:23.560 --> 0:01:29.840
<v Speaker 1>of helpless men, women, and children. It was a slow

0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:38.600
<v Speaker 1>and brutal death for so many. Even beautiful babies were

0:01:38.640 --> 0:01:46.560
<v Speaker 1>cruelly murdered in this very barbaric attack. No child of

0:01:46.640 --> 0:01:52.280
<v Speaker 1>God should ever suffer such horror. Tonight, I ordered a

0:01:52.440 --> 0:01:58.600
<v Speaker 1>targeted military strike on the airfield in Syria from where

0:01:59.280 --> 0:02:06.120
<v Speaker 1>the chemical attack was launched. It is in this vital

0:02:07.160 --> 0:02:12.040
<v Speaker 1>national security interest of the United States to prevent and

0:02:12.160 --> 0:02:19.119
<v Speaker 1>deter the spread and use of deadly chemical weapons. There

0:02:19.160 --> 0:02:23.880
<v Speaker 1>can be no dispute that s will used burned chemical weapons,

0:02:24.960 --> 0:02:33.000
<v Speaker 1>violated obligations under the Chemical Weapons Convention, and ignored the

0:02:33.200 --> 0:02:40.800
<v Speaker 1>urging of the UN Security counts. Years of previous attempts

0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:46.200
<v Speaker 1>at changing the slad's behavior have all failed, and failed

0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:53.240
<v Speaker 1>very dramatically. As a result, the refugee crisis continues to

0:02:53.320 --> 0:02:58.720
<v Speaker 1>deepen and the region continues to destabilize, threatening the United

0:02:58.800 --> 0:03:03.919
<v Speaker 1>States and its allies. Tonight, I call on all civilized

0:03:04.040 --> 0:03:08.359
<v Speaker 1>nations to join us and seeking to end the slurter

0:03:09.280 --> 0:03:17.600
<v Speaker 1>and bloodshed in Syria, and also to end carold of

0:03:17.680 --> 0:03:23.520
<v Speaker 1>all kinds and all types. We ask for God's wisdom

0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:27.920
<v Speaker 1>as we face the challenge of our very troubled world.

0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:33.320
<v Speaker 1>We pray for the lives of the wounded and for

0:03:33.360 --> 0:03:37.440
<v Speaker 1>the souls of those who have passed, and we hope

0:03:37.520 --> 0:03:42.440
<v Speaker 1>that as long as America stands for justice, then peace

0:03:42.440 --> 0:03:49.000
<v Speaker 1>and harmony will in the end prevail. Good Night, and

0:03:49.240 --> 0:03:55.680
<v Speaker 1>God bless America and the entire world. Thank you all right,

0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:58.680
<v Speaker 1>glad you're with us. Happy Friday. That was the President

0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:02.200
<v Speaker 1>making a statement last night after, in fact, fifty nine,

0:04:02.280 --> 0:04:06.200
<v Speaker 1>some fifty nine Tomahawk missiles were fired at the very

0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:09.640
<v Speaker 1>launch pad of where these chemical weapons were used by

0:04:09.760 --> 0:04:13.240
<v Speaker 1>Syria against men, women, and children earlier this week. You

0:04:13.240 --> 0:04:16.599
<v Speaker 1>can hear a very affected, very different President Trump there,

0:04:16.760 --> 0:04:18.880
<v Speaker 1>just like we heard when he was meeting with the

0:04:19.160 --> 0:04:22.520
<v Speaker 1>King of Jordan Abdullah earlier this week, and that issue

0:04:22.560 --> 0:04:24.400
<v Speaker 1>came up, and the issue of a red line came

0:04:24.480 --> 0:04:27.000
<v Speaker 1>up over and over again. You know, I've got to

0:04:27.120 --> 0:04:30.960
<v Speaker 1>say it's pretty powerful statement here. No child of God

0:04:31.040 --> 0:04:35.400
<v Speaker 1>should suffer such horror. And the President said that, and

0:04:35.600 --> 0:04:39.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm following the comments and the commentary, and everybody said, well,

0:04:39.920 --> 0:04:42.720
<v Speaker 1>the President tweeted out that Obama shouldn't do what is

0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:45.960
<v Speaker 1>he doing. Okay, that's a fair thing, but that's a

0:04:45.960 --> 0:04:50.840
<v Speaker 1>fair criticism. He changed his mind after seeing dead children

0:04:51.200 --> 0:04:54.200
<v Speaker 1>that had been gassed. But if we're going to be

0:04:54.279 --> 0:04:58.119
<v Speaker 1>fair and talk about changing minds and listening to things

0:04:58.160 --> 0:05:01.200
<v Speaker 1>that are said to us by politician, why don't we

0:05:01.279 --> 0:05:04.000
<v Speaker 1>start the program. And I want you to think about

0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:06.760
<v Speaker 1>this in the context especially of the Iranian nuclear deal,

0:05:06.800 --> 0:05:10.360
<v Speaker 1>which allows the Iranians to continue to spin their centerfuges

0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:14.400
<v Speaker 1>twenty five days before we give them inspections and they

0:05:14.400 --> 0:05:16.600
<v Speaker 1>get heads up on it. We don't even get to

0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:19.440
<v Speaker 1>have American inspectors, nor do we get to inspect everything

0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:22.680
<v Speaker 1>we want to inspect. And the billions of taxpayer of

0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:26.839
<v Speaker 1>dollars that he forked over to this radical Islamic regime

0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:30.120
<v Speaker 1>that has declared over and over again that they want

0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:34.039
<v Speaker 1>to destroy America, destroy Israel, and they want a worldwide

0:05:34.240 --> 0:05:38.280
<v Speaker 1>caliphate that has been their goal from the beginning. How

0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:42.839
<v Speaker 1>right is Obama and his assurances that, well, the Iranians

0:05:42.839 --> 0:05:46.520
<v Speaker 1>now they're limited in getting nuclear weapons. Well, if we're

0:05:46.520 --> 0:05:48.760
<v Speaker 1>going to talk about Donald Trump changed his mind on

0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:51.640
<v Speaker 1>the issue of whether or not there should be retaliation

0:05:51.720 --> 0:05:54.400
<v Speaker 1>in the case of the use of chemical weapons against men, women,

0:05:54.400 --> 0:05:57.440
<v Speaker 1>and children. You know, I'm having a hard time understanding

0:05:57.920 --> 0:06:01.720
<v Speaker 1>the opposition to this. He did everything that Trump said

0:06:01.760 --> 0:06:04.960
<v Speaker 1>he would do in terms of he didn't telegraph the move.

0:06:05.240 --> 0:06:09.600
<v Speaker 1>There's no desire clearly to occupy, but it's a message

0:06:09.960 --> 0:06:14.400
<v Speaker 1>stop using chemical weapons against innocent men, women, and children.

0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:17.880
<v Speaker 1>That there is a line that the world cannot tolgrate,

0:06:18.360 --> 0:06:21.680
<v Speaker 1>which is it's bad enough. This ridiculous civil war has

0:06:21.720 --> 0:06:25.440
<v Speaker 1>gone on for seven years with no resolution at all,

0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:28.480
<v Speaker 1>being fomented by the way by Putin. Oh for all

0:06:28.520 --> 0:06:31.640
<v Speaker 1>the talk of the conspiracy Trump and the Russians, he

0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:35.400
<v Speaker 1>went dead set against Vladimir Putin last night and what

0:06:35.560 --> 0:06:38.800
<v Speaker 1>the Russians wanted because they have been propping up the

0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:42.440
<v Speaker 1>Assad regime, that this entire time for their own political benefit.

0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:45.920
<v Speaker 1>But if we're going to take the words of politicians,

0:06:45.920 --> 0:06:50.200
<v Speaker 1>which this is all that CNN and NBC has fixated

0:06:50.279 --> 0:06:53.679
<v Speaker 1>on I flipped. I can't believe this is it. Okay,

0:06:53.800 --> 0:06:58.200
<v Speaker 1>let's listen to both. Well, let's listen to President Obama,

0:06:58.279 --> 0:07:00.760
<v Speaker 1>and then we'll listen to John Kerry, and then we'll

0:07:00.800 --> 0:07:03.880
<v Speaker 1>listen to Susan Rice, and we'll listen to their words

0:07:03.920 --> 0:07:08.320
<v Speaker 1>assuring you the American people that Obama's line in the

0:07:08.480 --> 0:07:13.680
<v Speaker 1>sand got Syria and Assad to give up their chemical weapons,

0:07:13.720 --> 0:07:18.560
<v Speaker 1>which clearly isn't true because he used them again this week. Listen.

0:07:19.000 --> 0:07:21.360
<v Speaker 1>I think it was important for me, as President of

0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:24.240
<v Speaker 1>the United States to send a message that, in fact,

0:07:24.520 --> 0:07:29.120
<v Speaker 1>there is something different about chemical weapons. And regardless of

0:07:29.160 --> 0:07:33.120
<v Speaker 1>how it ended up playing, I think in the Beltway,

0:07:33.480 --> 0:07:36.200
<v Speaker 1>what is true is Assad got rid of his chemical weapons,

0:07:36.400 --> 0:07:39.280
<v Speaker 1>and the reason he got rid of them was, well, look,

0:07:40.440 --> 0:07:44.680
<v Speaker 1>if ninety percent or ninety five percent of those chemical

0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:50.000
<v Speaker 1>stockpiles were eliminated, that's a lot of chemical weapons that

0:07:50.040 --> 0:07:52.680
<v Speaker 1>are not right now in the hands of Isle or Nusra,

0:07:53.240 --> 0:07:56.120
<v Speaker 1>or for that matter, of the regime. The President made

0:07:56.240 --> 0:08:00.520
<v Speaker 1>his decision to strike, he announced his decision to strike publicly,

0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:03.520
<v Speaker 1>and the purpose of the strike was to get the

0:08:03.600 --> 0:08:09.480
<v Speaker 1>chemical weapons out of Syria. That's the purpose. We achieved

0:08:09.520 --> 0:08:14.080
<v Speaker 1>a deal with the Russians that didn't wind up in

0:08:14.120 --> 0:08:16.440
<v Speaker 1>two days of strikes that would have sent a quote

0:08:16.480 --> 0:08:20.600
<v Speaker 1>message but would not have removed the weapons. We struck

0:08:20.640 --> 0:08:23.800
<v Speaker 1>a deal to get all of the declared weapons out

0:08:23.800 --> 0:08:27.880
<v Speaker 1>of Syria. Never before in a conflict has that ever happened,

0:08:28.200 --> 0:08:32.000
<v Speaker 1>that during a conflict, weapons and mass destruction are taken

0:08:32.000 --> 0:08:34.640
<v Speaker 1>out of the zone of conflict. And thank god we

0:08:34.760 --> 0:08:38.440
<v Speaker 1>did that because if we hadn't done that, today ISIL

0:08:38.720 --> 0:08:41.480
<v Speaker 1>would have those chemical weapons in large parts of the country.

0:08:41.720 --> 0:08:43.840
<v Speaker 1>Because in the meantime we were able to find a

0:08:43.880 --> 0:08:47.520
<v Speaker 1>solution that actually removed the chemical weapons that were known

0:08:47.640 --> 0:08:49.800
<v Speaker 1>from Syria in a way that the use of force

0:08:49.840 --> 0:08:54.800
<v Speaker 1>would never have accomplished. Oh, the use They just they're wrong. Now,

0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:59.040
<v Speaker 1>let's assume there is wrong about Iran and the Iranian deal,

0:08:59.400 --> 0:09:04.480
<v Speaker 1>as they are about what happened in Syria. Now, I

0:09:04.559 --> 0:09:07.880
<v Speaker 1>understand the argument that Rampaul I, like Rampaul Rampaul is

0:09:07.920 --> 0:09:11.240
<v Speaker 1>a constitutionalist, and if there's going to be further escalation,

0:09:11.840 --> 0:09:14.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, I understand the War Parisact, but you know,

0:09:14.559 --> 0:09:18.360
<v Speaker 1>using military forces not a declaration of war. I think

0:09:18.400 --> 0:09:20.760
<v Speaker 1>the hope of the president is this message gets sent,

0:09:20.840 --> 0:09:23.520
<v Speaker 1>gets sent loud and clear. I think the first thing

0:09:23.520 --> 0:09:25.959
<v Speaker 1>that you've got to recognize what happened last night is

0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:29.840
<v Speaker 1>the President sent a message to the entire world and

0:09:30.000 --> 0:09:34.160
<v Speaker 1>Pyongyang in North Korea, and certainly the Iranians and certainly

0:09:34.200 --> 0:09:37.120
<v Speaker 1>the Russians you know outside of them, and the Syrians

0:09:37.160 --> 0:09:40.280
<v Speaker 1>meaning asad you know who is really upset about what

0:09:40.320 --> 0:09:42.200
<v Speaker 1>happened last night? Is the world going to sit back

0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:45.520
<v Speaker 1>and watch a modern day holocaust where children are gassed

0:09:45.520 --> 0:09:48.720
<v Speaker 1>before our eyes, with the images being shown to the world,

0:09:49.000 --> 0:09:50.880
<v Speaker 1>And I guess it's we're just going to sit back

0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:53.360
<v Speaker 1>and not let and just let that continue to happen

0:09:53.440 --> 0:09:56.320
<v Speaker 1>and not try to stop it. I don't want America

0:09:56.400 --> 0:09:59.400
<v Speaker 1>to be the world's policemen either. I don't think we

0:09:59.480 --> 0:10:02.800
<v Speaker 1>have nobility as a country anymore to fight wars because

0:10:02.800 --> 0:10:06.599
<v Speaker 1>they always become politicized. But we certainly have the military

0:10:06.640 --> 0:10:09.760
<v Speaker 1>technology and the ability and the strength and hopefully the

0:10:09.800 --> 0:10:14.240
<v Speaker 1>moral commitment that if we see dead kids from chemical weapons,

0:10:14.720 --> 0:10:17.280
<v Speaker 1>maybe we have to do a little something to stop it,

0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:20.600
<v Speaker 1>especially considering we were promised, oh, there's no such thing

0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:24.520
<v Speaker 1>as chemical weapons inside Assyria, that of course by Obama

0:10:24.559 --> 0:10:27.080
<v Speaker 1>and rice and carry. They lied. Now let's assume they're

0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:29.959
<v Speaker 1>just as wrong on Iran. Oh great, Now we've got

0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:32.920
<v Speaker 1>a squared B squared equals C squared because you got

0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:36.720
<v Speaker 1>radical Islamic terrorists that believe in a worldwide caliphate now

0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:39.719
<v Speaker 1>having nuclear weapons in their arsenal and a promise of

0:10:39.800 --> 0:10:42.439
<v Speaker 1>pledge in a commitment to destroy Israel in the United States.

0:10:42.520 --> 0:10:45.640
<v Speaker 1>That's not going to work. And by the way, you know,

0:10:45.840 --> 0:10:49.640
<v Speaker 1>with all the talk about Russia, you know, the biggest

0:10:49.679 --> 0:10:52.640
<v Speaker 1>question coming out of last night's missile attack was, well,

0:10:52.640 --> 0:10:55.720
<v Speaker 1>why did Russian forces on the ground failed to deploy

0:10:55.800 --> 0:10:57.920
<v Speaker 1>this state of the art missile defense system that they

0:10:57.960 --> 0:11:01.719
<v Speaker 1>had at that base, at that very airbase. They could

0:11:01.760 --> 0:11:04.200
<v Speaker 1>have at least tried to blunt the attack. And I

0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:07.600
<v Speaker 1>suspect when Trump, you know, we had an agreement where

0:11:08.000 --> 0:11:10.640
<v Speaker 1>a military to military agreement that if we're about to

0:11:10.720 --> 0:11:12.960
<v Speaker 1>hit something, we give them a heads up so their

0:11:13.400 --> 0:11:19.280
<v Speaker 1>soldiers don't die. That we were committed by treaty and

0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:21.480
<v Speaker 1>agreement to do that. Last night, people say, wow, they

0:11:21.480 --> 0:11:23.400
<v Speaker 1>gave him a heads up. No, that's not what happened.

0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:27.160
<v Speaker 1>But I think when Trump, when our military talked to

0:11:27.280 --> 0:11:29.839
<v Speaker 1>their military and Putin got that heads up that a

0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:34.840
<v Speaker 1>launch was imminent, that the attack was taking place, wasn't

0:11:34.880 --> 0:11:37.800
<v Speaker 1>aimed at Russian personnel, wasn't aimed at Russian assets on

0:11:37.840 --> 0:11:41.720
<v Speaker 1>the ground. Well, Putin didn't want a confrontation in spite

0:11:41.720 --> 0:11:44.840
<v Speaker 1>of all the rhetoric coming out of Russia today, and

0:11:44.920 --> 0:11:49.280
<v Speaker 1>I think for obvious reasons. Now, you know, Kim Jong

0:11:49.480 --> 0:11:54.080
<v Speaker 1>un congratulates as sad just hours before Trump's missile strike.

0:11:54.120 --> 0:11:56.839
<v Speaker 1>I wonder if he's congratulating him now. He sent a

0:11:56.920 --> 0:12:00.680
<v Speaker 1>letter of congratulations to Syrian president Bashar al Assad on

0:12:00.760 --> 0:12:04.000
<v Speaker 1>the seventie anniversary of the country's ruling Bath Party, according

0:12:04.040 --> 0:12:07.560
<v Speaker 1>to Pyongyang's news agency. Well that was sent just hours

0:12:07.600 --> 0:12:11.960
<v Speaker 1>before President Trump order the air strikes. You know, the

0:12:12.080 --> 0:12:15.400
<v Speaker 1>world sees a different America here. This is not America

0:12:15.520 --> 0:12:18.720
<v Speaker 1>leading from behind. This is not America seeking the UN approval.

0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:22.679
<v Speaker 1>This is America acting. This is America taking a moral stand.

0:12:23.600 --> 0:12:26.240
<v Speaker 1>Nobody wants a long term conflict. Why because it'll be

0:12:26.280 --> 0:12:29.320
<v Speaker 1>politicized anyway, and we don't have the stature or the stamina.

0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:32.200
<v Speaker 1>Were not stature. We don't have the stamina, you know,

0:12:32.360 --> 0:12:36.479
<v Speaker 1>the stomach in Washington to see through in any military

0:12:36.520 --> 0:12:40.720
<v Speaker 1>conflict of victory. Prime Minister net and Yahoo praised Trump

0:12:40.760 --> 0:12:43.280
<v Speaker 1>back Trump on the strike as he always is a

0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:46.600
<v Speaker 1>loyal and fierce ally of the United States. I don't

0:12:46.640 --> 0:12:49.480
<v Speaker 1>think it's by accident that the President recently met and

0:12:49.640 --> 0:12:52.520
<v Speaker 1>very very little attention was paid to his meetings with

0:12:52.679 --> 0:12:56.559
<v Speaker 1>the King of Jordan Abdullah, and the and the President

0:12:56.640 --> 0:13:00.280
<v Speaker 1>and General Alcisi of Egypt and the Crown Prince of

0:13:00.320 --> 0:13:04.320
<v Speaker 1>Saudi Arabia, and of course Prime Minister net Yahoo and

0:13:04.360 --> 0:13:06.320
<v Speaker 1>I've been saying that maybe the one good thing that

0:13:06.360 --> 0:13:08.920
<v Speaker 1>ever came out of the Obama years and this ridiculous

0:13:08.920 --> 0:13:13.320
<v Speaker 1>Iranian deal was the fact that a new alliance was created,

0:13:13.480 --> 0:13:18.119
<v Speaker 1>Sunni Arab nations now aligning with the Israelis and partnering

0:13:18.600 --> 0:13:23.360
<v Speaker 1>to stand up against possible Iranian hegemony in the region,

0:13:23.360 --> 0:13:26.559
<v Speaker 1>which of course is their goal. And you know, Vladimir

0:13:26.600 --> 0:13:29.560
<v Speaker 1>Putin wants his stew just Sad to stay alive. He

0:13:29.559 --> 0:13:32.600
<v Speaker 1>probably needs to get him out of Damascus and get him.

0:13:33.040 --> 0:13:35.760
<v Speaker 1>As my buddy Ali North wrote me last night, make

0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:39.400
<v Speaker 1>him Eddie Snowdon's roommate in Moscow. Andy, We'll have the

0:13:39.520 --> 0:13:41.640
<v Speaker 1>latest on this look on this Friday. We've got a

0:13:41.640 --> 0:13:45.920
<v Speaker 1>lot of news. We have Judge Gorsich praised to Republicans,

0:13:45.960 --> 0:13:47.840
<v Speaker 1>not something I do often on this program, but they

0:13:47.880 --> 0:13:50.840
<v Speaker 1>actually did the right thing. And indeed he will be

0:13:50.880 --> 0:13:53.559
<v Speaker 1>on the Supreme Court. He'll be sworn in on Monday.

0:13:53.600 --> 0:13:56.559
<v Speaker 1>We'll have an update on that today. Also, we are

0:13:56.640 --> 0:14:00.480
<v Speaker 1>following the latest discussion, debate and negotiations going on. They

0:14:00.520 --> 0:14:03.600
<v Speaker 1>continue as it relates to healthcare in Washington. We had

0:14:03.640 --> 0:14:06.880
<v Speaker 1>an attack in Sweden, five dead now and a terror attack.

0:14:07.240 --> 0:14:09.679
<v Speaker 1>I thought that wasn't supposed to happen in Sweden. We'll

0:14:09.720 --> 0:14:12.319
<v Speaker 1>get to that today and all the other news of

0:14:12.360 --> 0:14:14.079
<v Speaker 1>the day, and of course the latest on Susan Rice.

0:14:14.120 --> 0:14:18.840
<v Speaker 1>So we've got a busy news Friday here today, bite

0:14:18.840 --> 0:14:23.200
<v Speaker 1>sized version of the show that you can take with you.

0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:28.240
<v Speaker 1>To sign up today for Hannity headlines, go to Hannity

0:14:28.560 --> 0:14:30.840
<v Speaker 1>dot com. We'll take a lot of calls today. In

0:14:30.880 --> 0:14:32.520
<v Speaker 1>the next half hour, we'll get to some phone calls

0:14:32.560 --> 0:14:36.280
<v Speaker 1>to some of the other news. There are ongoing negotiations

0:14:36.280 --> 0:14:38.720
<v Speaker 1>as it relates to healthcare. If we get any developments

0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:42.440
<v Speaker 1>on that, we'll let you know. I gotta give praise

0:14:42.440 --> 0:14:46.840
<v Speaker 1>where praises due. I have been very critical of Republicans

0:14:46.840 --> 0:14:49.440
<v Speaker 1>in Washington. I'm still pissed off that they're going away

0:14:49.440 --> 0:14:53.040
<v Speaker 1>on a two week vacation, although that might change. And

0:14:53.080 --> 0:14:55.520
<v Speaker 1>they still haven't got a healthcare build done after eight years,

0:14:55.520 --> 0:14:59.480
<v Speaker 1>which annoys the living daylights out of me. But they

0:14:59.560 --> 0:15:02.920
<v Speaker 1>did in Senate, and I've been critical of Mitch McConnell

0:15:02.920 --> 0:15:05.200
<v Speaker 1>at times, but he did hold strong as it relates

0:15:05.240 --> 0:15:09.000
<v Speaker 1>to not giving a vote on Merrick Garland the number

0:15:09.000 --> 0:15:12.960
<v Speaker 1>two you know, today's Senate confirmation vote, Neil Gorst's. The

0:15:12.960 --> 0:15:16.720
<v Speaker 1>final vote was fifty four forty five. It wouldn't have

0:15:16.760 --> 0:15:21.360
<v Speaker 1>happened had Mitch McConnell not invoked the constitutional option. Now

0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:24.600
<v Speaker 1>he had no other choice from there was no choice,

0:15:24.680 --> 0:15:28.360
<v Speaker 1>but you know, he could have caved, I guess, but

0:15:28.720 --> 0:15:33.640
<v Speaker 1>the rules don't apply equally and there's no reciprocity from Democrats,

0:15:33.640 --> 0:15:35.960
<v Speaker 1>so he really didn't have a choice anyway. The Republican

0:15:36.000 --> 0:15:40.560
<v Speaker 1>Senate votes gave every Obama Supreme Court nominee the upper

0:15:40.640 --> 0:15:44.720
<v Speaker 1>down vote everyone every time Sonia saw to my R

0:15:44.880 --> 0:15:48.560
<v Speaker 1>sixty eight thirty one, Elena Kagan sixty three thirty seven,

0:15:49.120 --> 0:15:52.480
<v Speaker 1>Gorsts fifty four forty five. But for the first time

0:15:52.480 --> 0:15:55.440
<v Speaker 1>in a couple of hundred years for partisan reasons, they

0:15:55.640 --> 0:15:58.360
<v Speaker 1>filibustered Neil Gorstz. Neil Gorstz will be on the Court

0:15:58.400 --> 0:16:01.360
<v Speaker 1>as of Monday, so I got to give credit where

0:16:01.360 --> 0:16:04.280
<v Speaker 1>it is due. I did take a little shot on

0:16:04.320 --> 0:16:07.600
<v Speaker 1>Twitter today against the never Trumper people, because you know,

0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:11.760
<v Speaker 1>there was so adamant that Donald Trump is a liberal. Well,

0:16:11.800 --> 0:16:13.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't think the wall is liberal. I don't think

0:16:13.840 --> 0:16:16.680
<v Speaker 1>his economic plan is liberal. I don't think vetting refugees

0:16:16.760 --> 0:16:19.800
<v Speaker 1>is a liberal. I don't think Neil Gorsich is a

0:16:19.840 --> 0:16:23.200
<v Speaker 1>liberal based on his background in his history, and Washington

0:16:23.200 --> 0:16:25.600
<v Speaker 1>Post even said in an article they put out that

0:16:25.640 --> 0:16:29.600
<v Speaker 1>they think his track record shows he's more conservative than Scalia.

0:16:29.680 --> 0:16:31.880
<v Speaker 1>I can only hope and pray. Sometimes you don't know.

0:16:32.040 --> 0:16:36.040
<v Speaker 1>David Suit was probably the biggest disappointment in our lifetime,

0:16:36.680 --> 0:16:39.400
<v Speaker 1>and probably you know, my favorite justice on the Supreme

0:16:39.400 --> 0:16:42.920
<v Speaker 1>Court now is Clarence Thomas by far, and I hope

0:16:42.960 --> 0:16:49.880
<v Speaker 1>that Neil Gorsich gets into that category. And Clarence Thomas

0:16:49.920 --> 0:16:54.000
<v Speaker 1>and Justice Kalia. I mean, what they did for this

0:16:54.080 --> 0:16:58.440
<v Speaker 1>country is just an enormous service that is immeasurable in

0:16:58.560 --> 0:17:00.800
<v Speaker 1>terms of the damage that other wise would have been

0:17:00.840 --> 0:17:04.879
<v Speaker 1>done by people that don't have the originalist philosophy, that

0:17:05.000 --> 0:17:07.959
<v Speaker 1>actually believe in separation of powers and coequal branches of

0:17:08.000 --> 0:17:12.200
<v Speaker 1>government and not citing foreign constitutions and legislating from the bench,

0:17:12.400 --> 0:17:15.560
<v Speaker 1>or you know, coming up with crazy ideas to justify

0:17:15.600 --> 0:17:17.840
<v Speaker 1>insane decisions. All right, we'll continue your calls on the

0:17:17.840 --> 0:17:20.960
<v Speaker 1>other side when we come back more of the best

0:17:21.040 --> 0:17:24.240
<v Speaker 1>of the Sean Hannity Show. Stay tuned. We know you

0:17:24.480 --> 0:17:28.399
<v Speaker 1>never want to miss the Sean Show, and now you

0:17:28.600 --> 0:17:33.440
<v Speaker 1>never have to. Just sign up for Hannity Headlines, a

0:17:33.720 --> 0:17:36.400
<v Speaker 1>bite sized version of the show that you can take

0:17:36.480 --> 0:17:40.520
<v Speaker 1>with you on your laptop, your mobile phone everywhere you go,

0:17:40.960 --> 0:17:47.840
<v Speaker 1>even to your liberal in law's place in Vermont. So yeah,

0:17:47.520 --> 0:17:50.159
<v Speaker 1>and after a few hours of that, you'll be glad

0:17:50.200 --> 0:17:54.480
<v Speaker 1>you've brought Sean along. To sign up today for Hannity Headlines.

0:17:54.560 --> 0:17:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Go to Hannity dot com. Yeah, they're lazy and they're

0:17:57.960 --> 0:18:01.640
<v Speaker 1>going on vacation soon. Everyone in there thinks they're funny

0:18:01.680 --> 0:18:03.440
<v Speaker 1>because they all put their feet up on their desk

0:18:03.440 --> 0:18:06.280
<v Speaker 1>and they're acting like their drinking beer and relaxing and

0:18:06.359 --> 0:18:08.480
<v Speaker 1>not doing their job. I don't listen play any game

0:18:08.520 --> 0:18:11.200
<v Speaker 1>you want, but you don't do your job around here.

0:18:11.240 --> 0:18:15.439
<v Speaker 1>You don't last. I'm just thirsty. I don't know what

0:18:15.520 --> 0:18:18.280
<v Speaker 1>you're talking about. You know, what have I always said

0:18:18.280 --> 0:18:22.280
<v Speaker 1>about firing people? I don't fire people. No, I always say,

0:18:22.320 --> 0:18:27.280
<v Speaker 1>people fire themselves. I don't fire people. People really end

0:18:27.359 --> 0:18:31.399
<v Speaker 1>up always in my universe firing themselves. Those people that

0:18:31.480 --> 0:18:35.000
<v Speaker 1>get fired, and there's very few, because I'm not stupid

0:18:35.040 --> 0:18:37.280
<v Speaker 1>in the people that I hire. And I just want

0:18:37.359 --> 0:18:40.440
<v Speaker 1>people that want that care about their job as much

0:18:40.440 --> 0:18:43.800
<v Speaker 1>as I do. And I wish the Congress cared about

0:18:43.840 --> 0:18:46.040
<v Speaker 1>their job as much as all of you and this

0:18:46.080 --> 0:18:49.600
<v Speaker 1>audience care about yours. And the differences is they're not

0:18:49.760 --> 0:18:53.320
<v Speaker 1>likely to get fired. And you know, ninety percent because

0:18:53.320 --> 0:18:57.560
<v Speaker 1>the jerrymandering, these people get reelected. And it's it's sad

0:18:57.680 --> 0:19:01.600
<v Speaker 1>that there's no sense of urgency, real life urgency that

0:19:02.240 --> 0:19:05.119
<v Speaker 1>let's say you're an emergency room doctor. What do you

0:19:05.119 --> 0:19:08.119
<v Speaker 1>get to go away for Easter? No, you gotta work Easterday.

0:19:09.080 --> 0:19:10.920
<v Speaker 1>You know, if you work in the restaurant business, you're

0:19:10.920 --> 0:19:14.679
<v Speaker 1>working Easter Sunday or Palm Sunday or Christmas Day or

0:19:14.760 --> 0:19:18.399
<v Speaker 1>Thanksgiving Day. And all those waiters and waitresses and everybody

0:19:18.440 --> 0:19:19.919
<v Speaker 1>in between by the way that didn't come through the

0:19:19.920 --> 0:19:23.960
<v Speaker 1>way you wanted came through gibber Josh, you know, gibberish.

0:19:24.000 --> 0:19:29.680
<v Speaker 1>And I'm just like, I'm so frustrated that they can't

0:19:29.720 --> 0:19:35.600
<v Speaker 1>get this healthcare buil done beyond words, and you know,

0:19:35.840 --> 0:19:39.320
<v Speaker 1>and then they're gonna go away. You know, stay and

0:19:39.359 --> 0:19:41.280
<v Speaker 1>do the Stay and do your work till you get

0:19:41.320 --> 0:19:45.640
<v Speaker 1>it done. Stay, Stay and do your job. And if

0:19:45.680 --> 0:19:50.679
<v Speaker 1>that means working this Saturday and this palm Sunday, like

0:19:50.800 --> 0:19:54.439
<v Speaker 1>average people, like real people, like all of us in

0:19:54.480 --> 0:19:57.840
<v Speaker 1>the real world that care about our jobs. I can't

0:19:57.880 --> 0:20:02.000
<v Speaker 1>imagine not caring about work. I mean, I think back

0:20:02.040 --> 0:20:05.600
<v Speaker 1>to every job I've had in my life. I mean,

0:20:05.640 --> 0:20:08.679
<v Speaker 1>when I was washing dishes, they piled up unless I moved,

0:20:09.760 --> 0:20:13.080
<v Speaker 1>and they weren't going away until I cleaned them. That

0:20:13.200 --> 0:20:15.680
<v Speaker 1>was my job. You know. When I was a cook,

0:20:16.560 --> 0:20:21.040
<v Speaker 1>those you know sheets that line up in front of

0:20:21.080 --> 0:20:24.560
<v Speaker 1>the boiler, they need to get fulfilled, and they get

0:20:24.640 --> 0:20:28.399
<v Speaker 1>they line up fast. You gotta move. I used to

0:20:28.520 --> 0:20:32.159
<v Speaker 1>run inside these kitchens I worked in. I'd be running

0:20:32.160 --> 0:20:35.080
<v Speaker 1>back and forth like and I loved it, sweating and

0:20:35.160 --> 0:20:37.800
<v Speaker 1>loving it. When I was a kid, I was making money,

0:20:37.800 --> 0:20:40.800
<v Speaker 1>I loved it. Nice samet poly girl at the end

0:20:40.800 --> 0:20:43.800
<v Speaker 1>of the night was perfect for a thirteen year old kid.

0:20:43.800 --> 0:20:46.399
<v Speaker 1>That was heaven. Sometimes they give us two and that

0:20:46.480 --> 0:20:51.240
<v Speaker 1>was really heaven. Two same poly girls. I know when

0:20:51.240 --> 0:20:52.760
<v Speaker 1>I was a bus boy, I remember I worked at

0:20:52.760 --> 0:20:54.880
<v Speaker 1>this place in Flora Park. To Mary Peddler, I would

0:20:54.960 --> 0:20:58.879
<v Speaker 1>run being a bus boy run. I remember when the

0:20:58.920 --> 0:21:02.040
<v Speaker 1>bar got busy, I was running across the bar. Had

0:21:02.080 --> 0:21:05.440
<v Speaker 1>to make every pina colada, banana, strawberry dacirie by hand

0:21:05.440 --> 0:21:08.080
<v Speaker 1>at the time, every margaritta by hand and blend it.

0:21:08.560 --> 0:21:11.880
<v Speaker 1>What a pain in the unit. What thank god they've

0:21:12.040 --> 0:21:16.600
<v Speaker 1>streamlined the making of pina coladas and daciries and can't down.

0:21:16.600 --> 0:21:18.919
<v Speaker 1>How about a shot in a beer? It's good grief.

0:21:18.960 --> 0:21:20.840
<v Speaker 1>I was like, oh great, yeah, that's on the house.

0:21:20.880 --> 0:21:24.119
<v Speaker 1>Take the shot in the Budweiser. Just for not making

0:21:24.119 --> 0:21:26.640
<v Speaker 1>me work that hard. You used to have to make

0:21:27.560 --> 0:21:30.840
<v Speaker 1>every single one by hand, and now you got a

0:21:30.840 --> 0:21:35.160
<v Speaker 1>full restaurant, a full bar five deep. Did nobody wants

0:21:35.200 --> 0:21:40.159
<v Speaker 1>to wait for their drink? Move? Can I have a

0:21:40.240 --> 0:21:44.800
<v Speaker 1>pina colada, a banana dachrie and I'll take a regular

0:21:44.880 --> 0:21:47.480
<v Speaker 1>dachiri and I'll take a strawberry Dachirie. I made the

0:21:47.480 --> 0:21:51.040
<v Speaker 1>best strawberry dacries. Take real strawberries. You fill it up

0:21:51.080 --> 0:21:54.320
<v Speaker 1>halfway in the blender. Then you put in a little

0:21:54.320 --> 0:21:57.399
<v Speaker 1>bit of heavy cream just so it goes from a

0:21:57.480 --> 0:22:00.600
<v Speaker 1>dark red color to a little lightish pink color. It

0:22:00.680 --> 0:22:02.760
<v Speaker 1>really makes a big difference. And then you put in

0:22:02.880 --> 0:22:06.320
<v Speaker 1>a ton of sugar to sweeten it out. And then

0:22:06.359 --> 0:22:09.400
<v Speaker 1>you put in your rum and your strawberry liqueur, pile

0:22:09.480 --> 0:22:13.159
<v Speaker 1>it on with ice and mix it and it comes out.

0:22:13.200 --> 0:22:15.919
<v Speaker 1>You put an umbrella and then you're done. That's simple.

0:22:16.640 --> 0:22:19.000
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that's missing from the healthcare meetings. Maybe they need

0:22:19.040 --> 0:22:21.160
<v Speaker 1>some booths. Maybe I'll send over a case of Jamieson.

0:22:21.240 --> 0:22:24.000
<v Speaker 1>See if they can't get these guys moving. Maybe I'll

0:22:24.000 --> 0:22:27.840
<v Speaker 1>lock them in the room with pizza, Jamieson's, bud, Cora's light,

0:22:28.280 --> 0:22:31.440
<v Speaker 1>whatever they want, and they can't leave the room until

0:22:31.640 --> 0:22:34.640
<v Speaker 1>I'll keep sending in food until they can't take being

0:22:34.680 --> 0:22:37.920
<v Speaker 1>around each other anymore and they get the healthcare bill done.

0:22:38.760 --> 0:22:41.359
<v Speaker 1>That's what I've been saying. Bring in all the different

0:22:42.760 --> 0:22:46.640
<v Speaker 1>think tanks, because these guys are smart. The health the

0:22:46.680 --> 0:22:49.399
<v Speaker 1>Heritage Foundation is full of smart people. Club for Growth,

0:22:49.440 --> 0:22:52.840
<v Speaker 1>smart people Bring in the Tea Party, patriot people, bring

0:22:52.840 --> 0:22:57.399
<v Speaker 1>in the Cato Institute. Let them advise them on the

0:22:57.440 --> 0:23:00.199
<v Speaker 1>best bill that's going to lower premiums and give but

0:23:00.280 --> 0:23:04.280
<v Speaker 1>better care, more choices, and more options. Let's see what's

0:23:04.280 --> 0:23:06.200
<v Speaker 1>so hard about this. They had eight years to prepare

0:23:06.200 --> 0:23:10.280
<v Speaker 1>for this moment. Eight years, all right, I want to

0:23:10.320 --> 0:23:14.040
<v Speaker 1>move on. The President said to The New York Times

0:23:14.080 --> 0:23:18.720
<v Speaker 1>today that former National Security advisor Susan Rice may have

0:23:18.760 --> 0:23:22.320
<v Speaker 1>committed a crime by asking for the names of people

0:23:22.359 --> 0:23:25.240
<v Speaker 1>who were mentioned in these intercepted communications. In other words,

0:23:25.280 --> 0:23:28.600
<v Speaker 1>the unmasking. He says, I think it's going to be

0:23:28.600 --> 0:23:31.160
<v Speaker 1>the biggest story. I agree with the President is this

0:23:31.359 --> 0:23:35.520
<v Speaker 1>is watergate on steroids and human growth hormone at massively

0:23:35.680 --> 0:23:41.200
<v Speaker 1>high doses and levels huge anyway, that's what he said.

0:23:41.720 --> 0:23:45.240
<v Speaker 1>He declined requests for evidence. It's not the president's job.

0:23:46.119 --> 0:23:49.040
<v Speaker 1>Media Research points out. Brent Bozell points out, the liberal

0:23:49.040 --> 0:23:52.320
<v Speaker 1>media there's nothing to see here. That's their approach to

0:23:52.960 --> 0:23:58.800
<v Speaker 1>Susan Rice's politically motivated unmasking of Trump and his associates

0:23:59.080 --> 0:24:01.399
<v Speaker 1>as both the canad Date and as a president elect.

0:24:01.480 --> 0:24:05.119
<v Speaker 1>Oh that's nothing. Do you not understand where weaponizing and

0:24:05.280 --> 0:24:10.840
<v Speaker 1>politicizing intelligence gathering in the country. We're absolutely wiping and

0:24:10.920 --> 0:24:14.760
<v Speaker 1>stomping on the Constitution and our Fourth Amendment rights against

0:24:14.800 --> 0:24:18.560
<v Speaker 1>unreasonable search and seizure, our First Amendment rights for freedom

0:24:18.560 --> 0:24:22.760
<v Speaker 1>of expression. This is the beginning of a police state

0:24:22.800 --> 0:24:26.359
<v Speaker 1>if this takes hold. That's how dangerous this is. But

0:24:26.680 --> 0:24:28.560
<v Speaker 1>you notice we never get to the bottom of anything,

0:24:28.560 --> 0:24:32.240
<v Speaker 1>And that's Congress's fault again. Why has Hillary Clinton gotten

0:24:32.280 --> 0:24:34.560
<v Speaker 1>away with her email server and a mom and pop

0:24:34.600 --> 0:24:39.399
<v Speaker 1>shop bathroom in a bathroom closet and all the lies

0:24:39.400 --> 0:24:43.000
<v Speaker 1>that she told? How did she get away with giving

0:24:43.000 --> 0:24:47.080
<v Speaker 1>twenty percent of America's uranium by signing off as Secretary

0:24:47.200 --> 0:24:49.919
<v Speaker 1>State at the exact same time and leading up to

0:24:49.960 --> 0:24:52.320
<v Speaker 1>the time where she signed off on it, when all

0:24:52.320 --> 0:24:55.520
<v Speaker 1>this money is being funneled through surrogates of these companies

0:24:55.520 --> 0:24:58.840
<v Speaker 1>into the Clinton Foundation, and her husband's getting double as

0:24:58.880 --> 0:25:02.240
<v Speaker 1>speaking rate and mosque out. And that we've had eight

0:25:02.320 --> 0:25:07.520
<v Speaker 1>months of no evidence conspiracy theory advancement by the mainstream media.

0:25:07.920 --> 0:25:09.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, remember when Donald Trump put out that he

0:25:09.880 --> 0:25:13.320
<v Speaker 1>had been wire tapped, He was right, Donald Trump told

0:25:13.320 --> 0:25:15.280
<v Speaker 1>the truth. I'm going to do this in my opening

0:25:15.280 --> 0:25:19.919
<v Speaker 1>monologue on Hannity tonight. So what did they do? They ridiculed,

0:25:19.960 --> 0:25:23.480
<v Speaker 1>they mocked, they bashed Donald Trump. Now that Donald Trump

0:25:23.520 --> 0:25:27.800
<v Speaker 1>has been proven right, where's their apology and corrections? You know,

0:25:27.920 --> 0:25:31.040
<v Speaker 1>Trump colluded with the Russians to win the election. It

0:25:31.200 --> 0:25:34.960
<v Speaker 1>is a totally debunked, baseless claim that the mainstream media

0:25:35.040 --> 0:25:37.479
<v Speaker 1>has now been focused on without a shred of evidence

0:25:37.520 --> 0:25:43.640
<v Speaker 1>for eight months. Remember when Devin Nuness announced that he'd

0:25:43.680 --> 0:25:46.359
<v Speaker 1>seen in credible evidence that Trump and members of his

0:25:46.400 --> 0:25:49.400
<v Speaker 1>transition team had been caught up in this incidental surveillance

0:25:50.400 --> 0:25:53.800
<v Speaker 1>where the names were amassed. Well, they didn't practice minimization,

0:25:53.840 --> 0:25:56.359
<v Speaker 1>they didn't practice protecting the names of Americans, which is

0:25:56.400 --> 0:26:01.119
<v Speaker 1>standard operating procedure. Newness also revealed that intel was shared

0:26:01.119 --> 0:26:04.840
<v Speaker 1>among high level Obama administration officials. So instead of the

0:26:04.920 --> 0:26:09.760
<v Speaker 1>media is seeing the weaponization for political purposes of intelligence

0:26:09.800 --> 0:26:12.119
<v Speaker 1>and politicizing intelligence. No, the way that they want to

0:26:12.119 --> 0:26:15.560
<v Speaker 1>go after Devin Newness, What did he do wrong except

0:26:15.600 --> 0:26:19.879
<v Speaker 1>report the truth and these shocking revelations. So they react

0:26:19.920 --> 0:26:24.840
<v Speaker 1>by besmirching him, and then the destroyed Trump propaganda media

0:26:24.920 --> 0:26:27.879
<v Speaker 1>is out there smearing anybody and everybody who doesn't echo

0:26:28.040 --> 0:26:32.320
<v Speaker 1>their biased agenda. But we do have some real reporters

0:26:32.320 --> 0:26:36.400
<v Speaker 1>and investigative reporters like Sarah Carter and some people at

0:26:36.440 --> 0:26:40.359
<v Speaker 1>Fox and others, but not a lot of them. And

0:26:40.600 --> 0:26:42.840
<v Speaker 1>then you got new so called news networks and they

0:26:42.840 --> 0:26:47.560
<v Speaker 1>won't even cover the story. Susan Rice contradicts herself from

0:26:47.560 --> 0:26:50.680
<v Speaker 1>what she said two weeks ago. You know, you've got

0:26:50.720 --> 0:26:54.520
<v Speaker 1>the mister Obama gasm thrill up his leg, Chris Matthews

0:26:54.560 --> 0:26:57.920
<v Speaker 1>and others taking the low road accusing Republicans of being

0:26:58.000 --> 0:27:02.359
<v Speaker 1>racist and sexist for pointing out Susan Rice as a liar.

0:27:03.359 --> 0:27:07.399
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, this is pathetic. These are insane times.

0:27:07.400 --> 0:27:10.879
<v Speaker 1>We're living in. Up is down, Down is up. White

0:27:10.880 --> 0:27:13.800
<v Speaker 1>as black, black as white. And if a liberal tells

0:27:13.840 --> 0:27:15.760
<v Speaker 1>you there's a donut in the sky, you'll say, oh,

0:27:15.800 --> 0:27:18.160
<v Speaker 1>there's a donut in the sky, and you'll get these

0:27:18.200 --> 0:27:22.920
<v Speaker 1>stupid cable hosts that will repeat it and we'regurgitated. They're

0:27:22.960 --> 0:27:29.280
<v Speaker 1>beyond dumb, and they're feeding conspiracy after conspiracy. So I

0:27:29.359 --> 0:27:33.840
<v Speaker 1>guess an audience of knitwitz because if you had any

0:27:33.840 --> 0:27:36.000
<v Speaker 1>common sense, you'd be able to see through all of this.

0:27:37.359 --> 0:27:39.440
<v Speaker 1>Earlier today, when I asked about the New York Times

0:27:40.359 --> 0:27:42.959
<v Speaker 1>asked by the New York Times, Trump said, what's true.

0:27:43.760 --> 0:27:46.280
<v Speaker 1>It's such an important story for our country and for

0:27:46.400 --> 0:27:49.040
<v Speaker 1>the world. It's one of the big stories of our time.

0:27:50.400 --> 0:27:55.280
<v Speaker 1>Trump is right. So you got a partisan press ignoring

0:27:55.720 --> 0:27:59.480
<v Speaker 1>something that's much bigger than Watergate. They won't give it

0:27:59.480 --> 0:28:05.280
<v Speaker 1>any attention, ignoring the weaponization of intelligence, the politicizing of intelligence.

0:28:05.960 --> 0:28:07.320
<v Speaker 1>Are they ever going to get to the bottom of

0:28:07.320 --> 0:28:10.560
<v Speaker 1>who leaked the intel and committed a felony as it

0:28:10.600 --> 0:28:15.040
<v Speaker 1>relates to General Flynn? Well, the media ever apologize for

0:28:15.160 --> 0:28:18.920
<v Speaker 1>ridiculing the President over his surveillance claims now that they've

0:28:18.960 --> 0:28:22.600
<v Speaker 1>been proven he was right, They ever gonna make a correction.

0:28:22.640 --> 0:28:26.760
<v Speaker 1>They're gonna offer an apology. You know, all these networks,

0:28:26.840 --> 0:28:32.400
<v Speaker 1>all of them, ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MS, they're all

0:28:32.560 --> 0:28:35.040
<v Speaker 1>and all their friends in the print media, The Washington Post,

0:28:35.040 --> 0:28:39.440
<v Speaker 1>New York Times, they're all corrupt. They all lied, and

0:28:39.480 --> 0:28:43.520
<v Speaker 1>they never own up to it. Then they claim to

0:28:43.600 --> 0:28:45.560
<v Speaker 1>be fair, and then they don't like people like me.

0:28:45.640 --> 0:28:50.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm bad for America. I did their job in vetting Obama.

0:28:50.280 --> 0:28:54.520
<v Speaker 1>They didn't do it. I did their job, you know,

0:28:54.600 --> 0:28:58.719
<v Speaker 1>pointing out that Obama was a rigid radical ideologue, that

0:28:58.800 --> 0:29:02.760
<v Speaker 1>was indoctrinated, and he never broke his indoctrination. I predicted

0:29:02.800 --> 0:29:06.000
<v Speaker 1>his presidency would fail. It failed spectacularly. But they never

0:29:06.000 --> 0:29:09.680
<v Speaker 1>told you the truth about that either. All throughout the election,

0:29:09.800 --> 0:29:13.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he got one revelation after another about from

0:29:13.240 --> 0:29:19.240
<v Speaker 1>wiki leaks about collusion between the press and Hillary Clinton's campaign,

0:29:19.240 --> 0:29:22.640
<v Speaker 1>and nobody seems to care or pay attention to it.

0:29:23.920 --> 0:29:27.400
<v Speaker 1>What we did their job there too. Now you've got

0:29:27.440 --> 0:29:32.320
<v Speaker 1>probably the biggest scandal in modern history unfolding before your eyes,

0:29:33.040 --> 0:29:37.600
<v Speaker 1>and they're ignoring that. Also that now proven wrong that

0:29:37.680 --> 0:29:41.360
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump was right about. Okay, maybe he could have

0:29:41.480 --> 0:29:44.000
<v Speaker 1>used the word surveillance instead of wire tapping. If we're

0:29:44.000 --> 0:29:49.360
<v Speaker 1>going to get into a word parsing, smantics and superfluous arguments, okay,

0:29:49.360 --> 0:29:52.080
<v Speaker 1>we can argue he should have used a different word.

0:29:52.840 --> 0:29:56.480
<v Speaker 1>Oh God forbid, he used the wrong word. He didn't

0:29:56.480 --> 0:30:01.080
<v Speaker 1>say navy corpseman twenty times like Obama did. Nobody in

0:30:01.120 --> 0:30:03.160
<v Speaker 1>the media cared to pick up on that, but us.

0:30:04.760 --> 0:30:09.480
<v Speaker 1>It's so frustrating. You know, this country, and this is

0:30:09.480 --> 0:30:11.560
<v Speaker 1>why I'm ad at Republicans. It's like we've got all

0:30:11.560 --> 0:30:15.160
<v Speaker 1>this work to do, and it's like nobody wants to

0:30:15.160 --> 0:30:18.520
<v Speaker 1>do their job. The swamp just wants to stay stay

0:30:18.560 --> 0:30:22.240
<v Speaker 1>on vacation all the time. Think about when you say,

0:30:22.680 --> 0:30:27.080
<v Speaker 1>roll your window down, dial the phone, what do you

0:30:27.360 --> 0:30:29.920
<v Speaker 1>what is that just it's an expression, like you don't

0:30:29.920 --> 0:30:32.600
<v Speaker 1>actually roll your window down, you hit a button. You know,

0:30:32.880 --> 0:30:35.640
<v Speaker 1>you don't wire tap phones anymore. It's surveillance. It's there's

0:30:35.680 --> 0:30:38.280
<v Speaker 1>no wire attachment to your phone. But the concept is

0:30:38.320 --> 0:30:43.560
<v Speaker 1>what you're They were surveilling the conversations exactly, okay, and

0:30:43.640 --> 0:30:49.360
<v Speaker 1>that's technically it's wire tapping. It's surveillance, but wire tapping, surveillance,

0:30:49.360 --> 0:30:51.360
<v Speaker 1>it's all the same thing. It's just an expression. It's

0:30:51.400 --> 0:30:56.320
<v Speaker 1>so ridiculous, it's just absurd. When is the media? Why

0:30:56.360 --> 0:30:59.400
<v Speaker 1>can't they just listen? I gotta admit, in my life,

0:30:59.440 --> 0:31:02.880
<v Speaker 1>I've made so many stupid mistakes. I really have. I've

0:31:02.880 --> 0:31:05.880
<v Speaker 1>been a dope probably half my life. Is it just

0:31:05.920 --> 0:31:08.720
<v Speaker 1>an idiot and I make mistakes? We know what the

0:31:08.840 --> 0:31:14.440
<v Speaker 1>most under utilized world word in the English languages. I'm

0:31:14.480 --> 0:31:20.440
<v Speaker 1>sorry those words. I'm sorry. I apologize. I was wrong.

0:31:21.200 --> 0:31:24.880
<v Speaker 1>I was You know, why can't they do that? I mean,

0:31:24.920 --> 0:31:27.840
<v Speaker 1>they're fixated on taking down the Fox News channel. Now,

0:31:27.840 --> 0:31:30.920
<v Speaker 1>it's like twenty four seven, beat up on Fox all

0:31:30.920 --> 0:31:36.400
<v Speaker 1>over the place, just outright deceptive, lying in headlines. I

0:31:36.440 --> 0:31:38.600
<v Speaker 1>mean I personally, I don't care when it's about. I

0:31:38.640 --> 0:31:40.840
<v Speaker 1>just don't care. I got better things to do with

0:31:40.880 --> 0:31:43.480
<v Speaker 1>my time than give a flying rip about what these

0:31:43.480 --> 0:31:45.280
<v Speaker 1>other people in the media is. Now, do you understand

0:31:45.360 --> 0:31:49.360
<v Speaker 1>why I've never been to a correspondence dinner? You understand

0:31:49.680 --> 0:31:51.560
<v Speaker 1>why I would never go? People said, well, you're gonna

0:31:51.560 --> 0:31:53.160
<v Speaker 1>go this year. Trump's gonna be there. Well, Trump's not

0:31:53.160 --> 0:31:55.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna be there, nor is anybody in its cabinet. But

0:31:55.560 --> 0:31:58.840
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't go anyway because I don't like these people,

0:31:58.960 --> 0:32:02.080
<v Speaker 1>because I know they're honest to you, and I know

0:32:02.160 --> 0:32:04.480
<v Speaker 1>they don't like me either. So why are we going

0:32:04.520 --> 0:32:08.000
<v Speaker 1>to put on a pretense? All right? Eight hundred nine

0:32:08.040 --> 0:32:10.080
<v Speaker 1>for one shown, We're gonna dig deeper. We're doing a

0:32:10.120 --> 0:32:14.520
<v Speaker 1>deep dive into all of this surveillance, all of this unmasking,

0:32:14.560 --> 0:32:17.640
<v Speaker 1>all of this leaking of intelligence, because it happens to

0:32:17.720 --> 0:32:21.960
<v Speaker 1>be the biggest story of our time and the biggest

0:32:22.000 --> 0:32:25.640
<v Speaker 1>scandal you'll probably ever see in your life, weaponizing intelligence,

0:32:26.480 --> 0:32:38.160
<v Speaker 1>politicizing raw intelligence. All Right, our two Sean Hannity Show

0:32:38.160 --> 0:32:41.120
<v Speaker 1>told free. Our telephone numbers eight hundred nine four one

0:32:41.200 --> 0:32:43.320
<v Speaker 1>Sean if you want to be a part of the program.

0:32:43.320 --> 0:32:47.280
<v Speaker 1>A top story remains, although we're watching now the constitutional

0:32:47.280 --> 0:32:50.239
<v Speaker 1>option being used where by Republicans. Finally we're getting some

0:32:50.280 --> 0:32:52.600
<v Speaker 1>work out of these guys. It's good to see a

0:32:52.600 --> 0:32:55.160
<v Speaker 1>little bit of backbone, a little bit of strength. We're

0:32:55.240 --> 0:32:59.160
<v Speaker 1>watching monitoring all of that unfolding. But our good friend

0:32:59.200 --> 0:33:02.400
<v Speaker 1>Sarah Carter over at Circa News and John Solomon over

0:33:02.400 --> 0:33:07.600
<v Speaker 1>at Circa News are now advancing this surveillance unmasking, intelligence

0:33:07.680 --> 0:33:11.719
<v Speaker 1>leaking story and their headline today as US spy agencies

0:33:12.200 --> 0:33:16.160
<v Speaker 1>intercept unmasked congressional figures as often as once a month.

0:33:16.680 --> 0:33:20.040
<v Speaker 1>Add to that comments by Congressman Peter King about the

0:33:20.080 --> 0:33:24.920
<v Speaker 1>intelligence reports that center around Susan Rice and the umasking controversy,

0:33:25.480 --> 0:33:31.000
<v Speaker 1>and he's describing it as almost resembling a private investigator's file. Quote.

0:33:31.040 --> 0:33:34.480
<v Speaker 1>This is information about their everyday lives. He's a member

0:33:34.480 --> 0:33:36.320
<v Speaker 1>of the House Intel Committe's sort of like in a

0:33:36.360 --> 0:33:40.000
<v Speaker 1>divorce case where lawyers are hired and investigators are hired

0:33:40.040 --> 0:33:42.040
<v Speaker 1>just to find out what the other person is doing

0:33:42.080 --> 0:33:44.440
<v Speaker 1>from morning until night, and then you try and piece

0:33:44.480 --> 0:33:48.240
<v Speaker 1>it together later on, and of course Devin Nunia stepped aside,

0:33:48.280 --> 0:33:51.000
<v Speaker 1>recused himself only from the Russia side of the investigation,

0:33:51.440 --> 0:33:53.560
<v Speaker 1>and Trey Goudie and others will be stepping in to

0:33:53.640 --> 0:33:57.080
<v Speaker 1>take his place. Not a smart move by the Democrats,

0:33:57.080 --> 0:34:00.320
<v Speaker 1>of my opinion, and it raises questions about whether Adam Chiff,

0:34:00.320 --> 0:34:03.760
<v Speaker 1>who's already jumped to conclusions and is defending Susan Rice,

0:34:03.840 --> 0:34:06.680
<v Speaker 1>whether he should also step aside. Sarah Carter a lot

0:34:06.680 --> 0:34:09.760
<v Speaker 1>to get to today. How are you? I'm doing great, Sean?

0:34:09.880 --> 0:34:12.600
<v Speaker 1>Thank you. All right, let's get into this new column

0:34:12.600 --> 0:34:16.600
<v Speaker 1>and layer of the onion you've been able to unpeel here.

0:34:17.960 --> 0:34:21.600
<v Speaker 1>Oh yes, I think that this is very significant, to

0:34:21.640 --> 0:34:24.640
<v Speaker 1>the point where not only were we concerned when it

0:34:24.760 --> 0:34:29.120
<v Speaker 1>was revealed to us that the unmasking really of congressional

0:34:29.160 --> 0:34:33.160
<v Speaker 1>representatives on the Hill, but the fact that many of

0:34:33.160 --> 0:34:36.200
<v Speaker 1>them don't even know they're being unmasked. So we went

0:34:36.280 --> 0:34:40.040
<v Speaker 1>back and talked to people who were in charge. Chairman

0:34:40.080 --> 0:34:44.200
<v Speaker 1>Pete Hustra spoke with me last night and I wanted

0:34:44.239 --> 0:34:46.520
<v Speaker 1>to know does this happen regularly? I mean, was this

0:34:46.680 --> 0:34:49.440
<v Speaker 1>something that he was familiar with? And he said, this

0:34:49.520 --> 0:34:52.799
<v Speaker 1>absolutely did not happen on a regular basis. At the

0:34:52.880 --> 0:34:56.799
<v Speaker 1>only time they were aware of unmasking of a congressional

0:34:56.840 --> 0:35:02.280
<v Speaker 1>representatives telephone conversation or intercept with persons overseas. If, for example,

0:35:03.200 --> 0:35:06.960
<v Speaker 1>the congressional representative was approached by somebody, let's say, from

0:35:07.040 --> 0:35:10.840
<v Speaker 1>Russia or the Ukraine or China, and that person was

0:35:10.960 --> 0:35:14.439
<v Speaker 1>posing as somebody else and they were trying to talk

0:35:14.480 --> 0:35:19.000
<v Speaker 1>to our congressman or about a particular issue. So if

0:35:19.440 --> 0:35:22.440
<v Speaker 1>the intelligence community knew that the person that was in

0:35:22.440 --> 0:35:26.000
<v Speaker 1>communication or reaching out to somebody in Congress was a spy,

0:35:26.320 --> 0:35:28.879
<v Speaker 1>was working with the FSB in Russia or something else,

0:35:29.120 --> 0:35:31.680
<v Speaker 1>then they may take that to the Gang of Eight

0:35:31.840 --> 0:35:35.319
<v Speaker 1>or to the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee and say, look,

0:35:35.360 --> 0:35:37.239
<v Speaker 1>you know, we know that Congressman so and so was

0:35:37.280 --> 0:35:41.200
<v Speaker 1>approached by this person. Would you please, you know, inform

0:35:41.280 --> 0:35:43.839
<v Speaker 1>them or should we inform them that they have been

0:35:43.840 --> 0:35:47.160
<v Speaker 1>approached by a spy? And that was the only time,

0:35:47.160 --> 0:35:50.680
<v Speaker 1>And he said that was extraordinarily rare, but that this

0:35:50.760 --> 0:35:54.720
<v Speaker 1>is happening once a month, and that other congressional members

0:35:54.719 --> 0:35:58.799
<v Speaker 1>have no idea that they have been unmasked is deeply concerning,

0:35:58.840 --> 0:36:01.080
<v Speaker 1>not just to him, but also Senator Grassley, who we

0:36:01.160 --> 0:36:04.359
<v Speaker 1>spoke with the House Judiciary Committee and others as well

0:36:04.400 --> 0:36:08.520
<v Speaker 1>on background. Let's talk about what Peter King said, What

0:36:08.600 --> 0:36:12.760
<v Speaker 1>do you know about that? Well, this is very interesting.

0:36:12.800 --> 0:36:16.400
<v Speaker 1>Remember this was what our sources had originally told us

0:36:16.520 --> 0:36:19.840
<v Speaker 1>that the concern wasn't just about that they were requesting

0:36:19.880 --> 0:36:22.960
<v Speaker 1>the unmasking, but it appeared to be a type of

0:36:23.560 --> 0:36:27.439
<v Speaker 1>weaponization of intelligence or political espionagests. They were gathering too

0:36:27.520 --> 0:36:31.760
<v Speaker 1>much information that it exceeded far beyond Russia. And so

0:36:31.960 --> 0:36:33.879
<v Speaker 1>I think there is a point there that if they're

0:36:33.920 --> 0:36:37.120
<v Speaker 1>building up these types of dossiers on people, if they're

0:36:37.120 --> 0:36:39.960
<v Speaker 1>looking at everything that they're doing, if this turns out

0:36:40.000 --> 0:36:44.319
<v Speaker 1>to be true, then I think that certainly elevates this

0:36:44.400 --> 0:36:48.400
<v Speaker 1>to a whole new level shine because what we're saying

0:36:48.480 --> 0:36:52.240
<v Speaker 1>is the Fourth Amendments the foundation to our right for privacy,

0:36:52.239 --> 0:36:55.040
<v Speaker 1>which is really what America is based on. It's based

0:36:55.080 --> 0:36:58.520
<v Speaker 1>on this republic where we're guaranteed certain rights, where we're

0:36:58.560 --> 0:37:01.000
<v Speaker 1>hearing to the right not to be listen to or

0:37:01.040 --> 0:37:04.520
<v Speaker 1>followed to, I mean without warrant, without warrant. This raises

0:37:04.520 --> 0:37:07.200
<v Speaker 1>it to a whole new level. When people in power

0:37:07.520 --> 0:37:11.920
<v Speaker 1>have this capability and are able to access private information.

0:37:12.040 --> 0:37:15.200
<v Speaker 1>We have to be very very concerned. It sounds to

0:37:15.280 --> 0:37:17.480
<v Speaker 1>me like this has nothing to do with Russia at

0:37:17.520 --> 0:37:20.239
<v Speaker 1>all in any way, shape, matter, or form. And can

0:37:20.280 --> 0:37:22.719
<v Speaker 1>you go a little bit deeper into what you have

0:37:22.960 --> 0:37:25.960
<v Speaker 1>discovered as it leads as it relates to, for example,

0:37:26.000 --> 0:37:29.680
<v Speaker 1>the so called Gates notifications, and you know, named after

0:37:29.800 --> 0:37:34.360
<v Speaker 1>Robert Gates, which goes to the Gang of Eight in Congress,

0:37:34.560 --> 0:37:38.439
<v Speaker 1>and you have now top members and congressional figures now

0:37:38.520 --> 0:37:41.640
<v Speaker 1>being intercepted and unmasked as often as once a month.

0:37:41.719 --> 0:37:45.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this to me sounds so intrusive. Well, and

0:37:46.200 --> 0:37:48.239
<v Speaker 1>to others. It's not just to you. I mean this

0:37:48.440 --> 0:37:52.439
<v Speaker 1>is intrusive on many different levels. And this is going

0:37:52.520 --> 0:37:55.600
<v Speaker 1>to be another part of this investigation, right. I mean

0:37:55.760 --> 0:37:57.879
<v Speaker 1>we're looking at the Gang of Eight. So what that

0:37:57.920 --> 0:38:02.280
<v Speaker 1>includes is the House Speaker, the Minority lead, the Democratic leaders,

0:38:02.520 --> 0:38:05.480
<v Speaker 1>Senate Republicans, and bipartisan heads of the chambers of the

0:38:05.520 --> 0:38:09.319
<v Speaker 1>intelligence committees. So now you're thinking that they're delivering this

0:38:09.400 --> 0:38:13.800
<v Speaker 1>information and it's going and unredacted to the Executive Branch

0:38:13.880 --> 0:38:16.279
<v Speaker 1>intelligence report. So this is going all the way up

0:38:16.640 --> 0:38:19.239
<v Speaker 1>to the top dogs in the White House, right, So

0:38:19.280 --> 0:38:23.960
<v Speaker 1>they're going to have access to these intercepts and they're

0:38:23.960 --> 0:38:25.200
<v Speaker 1>going to be able to see them. And now the

0:38:25.600 --> 0:38:29.640
<v Speaker 1>congressional representatives if they weren't told, right, if it wasn't involving,

0:38:30.480 --> 0:38:34.040
<v Speaker 1>for example, maybe being approached by a spy from another country,

0:38:34.080 --> 0:38:37.959
<v Speaker 1>which happened. I mean, intercepting these calls is not rare.

0:38:38.000 --> 0:38:41.759
<v Speaker 1>And that's something that Pete Hochster made very clear. He said,

0:38:41.800 --> 0:38:44.239
<v Speaker 1>you know, the fact that they intercept calls like this

0:38:44.280 --> 0:38:47.160
<v Speaker 1>is not unreasonable because there's five hundred and thirty five

0:38:47.160 --> 0:38:50.239
<v Speaker 1>members and their assistant. Yeah, but you also say in

0:38:50.280 --> 0:38:52.880
<v Speaker 1>your article it was rare during his tenure to be

0:38:52.920 --> 0:38:56.280
<v Speaker 1>alerted that a lawmaker congressional stafford had been on masks

0:38:56.400 --> 0:39:00.000
<v Speaker 1>unless there was a serious threat. That's where he says

0:39:00.000 --> 0:39:03.480
<v Speaker 1>a concern comes in. The concern comes in when they

0:39:03.520 --> 0:39:07.239
<v Speaker 1>are actually unmasked, and then they are not notified that

0:39:07.280 --> 0:39:10.880
<v Speaker 1>they've been unmasked, and then this information then reaches you know,

0:39:11.040 --> 0:39:13.759
<v Speaker 1>gets put in adothier up to the highest levels of

0:39:13.760 --> 0:39:16.799
<v Speaker 1>the executive branch, and they're able to see it, but

0:39:16.880 --> 0:39:20.600
<v Speaker 1>the congressional representative can't see it or their aids. They

0:39:20.600 --> 0:39:23.919
<v Speaker 1>don't know that they've been unmasked, so they're they're left

0:39:23.960 --> 0:39:25.880
<v Speaker 1>out in the dark, right, and then we have to

0:39:25.960 --> 0:39:29.280
<v Speaker 1>ask ourselves what was the information, what was the request

0:39:29.320 --> 0:39:32.799
<v Speaker 1>for unmasking this, Why were they unmasked? And I think

0:39:32.840 --> 0:39:36.080
<v Speaker 1>those are the answers that well the Executive Branch and

0:39:36.120 --> 0:39:40.000
<v Speaker 1>the Intelligence community need to answer, because those are sure

0:39:40.239 --> 0:39:43.359
<v Speaker 1>sure enough being questioned right now as violation of their

0:39:43.360 --> 0:39:46.600
<v Speaker 1>Fourth Amendment and First Amendment rights. Yeah, you talk about

0:39:46.640 --> 0:39:50.160
<v Speaker 1>three years ago the Charles Grassley was alerted to that

0:39:50.239 --> 0:39:53.560
<v Speaker 1>a government whistleblowers communication with his staff was obtained by

0:39:53.560 --> 0:39:58.759
<v Speaker 1>the intelligence community. I mean that to me is so outrageous. Well, yeah,

0:39:58.800 --> 0:40:00.520
<v Speaker 1>and then the fact that he didn't even and really

0:40:00.560 --> 0:40:02.920
<v Speaker 1>talk about that publicly, and then when he heard about this,

0:40:03.040 --> 0:40:06.160
<v Speaker 1>he's like, look, we really need we really need to

0:40:06.200 --> 0:40:08.279
<v Speaker 1>take a good look at what's going on here. I mean,

0:40:08.320 --> 0:40:12.120
<v Speaker 1>we have whistleblowers going to Charles Grassley. I mean I

0:40:12.160 --> 0:40:14.800
<v Speaker 1>have people you know now coming out of the woodwork

0:40:14.880 --> 0:40:17.080
<v Speaker 1>because they realize that this has been happening all the

0:40:17.120 --> 0:40:19.879
<v Speaker 1>time and they want to share this information. I mean,

0:40:19.920 --> 0:40:22.600
<v Speaker 1>remember when the CIA was it was forced to admit

0:40:22.680 --> 0:40:25.400
<v Speaker 1>that some of its employees spied into the computers of

0:40:25.440 --> 0:40:28.160
<v Speaker 1>Democratic staffers, and we talk about that in our story too,

0:40:28.520 --> 0:40:32.080
<v Speaker 1>and Senator Diane Einstein. So I mean grassly acknowledged that

0:40:32.160 --> 0:40:34.759
<v Speaker 1>this is a very serious problem. And remember this comes

0:40:34.840 --> 0:40:38.400
<v Speaker 1>up for review this year in the Judiciary Committee, this

0:40:38.480 --> 0:40:44.640
<v Speaker 1>expansion of the FISA, these expansions that I actually allowed

0:40:44.719 --> 0:40:48.480
<v Speaker 1>people to request these unmaskings with such little information. So

0:40:49.120 --> 0:40:51.040
<v Speaker 1>we've said this before, and I've said this on your

0:40:51.080 --> 0:40:54.120
<v Speaker 1>show before, where they can just basically write down Susan

0:40:54.200 --> 0:40:57.480
<v Speaker 1>Rice could request the unmasking of a certain phone intercept,

0:40:57.560 --> 0:40:59.120
<v Speaker 1>and all she would have to say is for national

0:40:59.239 --> 0:41:04.200
<v Speaker 1>security purpose. Well that can mean anything, and just putting

0:41:04.239 --> 0:41:06.960
<v Speaker 1>that down would allow her to unmask. So it wasn't

0:41:07.000 --> 0:41:09.680
<v Speaker 1>like she had to give a lot of justification for

0:41:09.840 --> 0:41:12.960
<v Speaker 1>unmasking people. And now we see it was happening. Well,

0:41:13.000 --> 0:41:15.400
<v Speaker 1>that goes to the rules that Obama got approved by

0:41:15.440 --> 0:41:18.160
<v Speaker 1>the Fiser Review Court in twenty eleven, which was your

0:41:18.239 --> 0:41:22.200
<v Speaker 1>earlier breakthrough report. Now we're seeing the magnitude of that

0:41:22.400 --> 0:41:25.440
<v Speaker 1>rule change. And I guess you know, to me, what

0:41:25.760 --> 0:41:29.600
<v Speaker 1>where this seems to be headed? And I don't see

0:41:29.680 --> 0:41:32.960
<v Speaker 1>any other justification. I can't think of any other possible

0:41:33.040 --> 0:41:36.080
<v Speaker 1>reason in my own mind. It seems to be going

0:41:36.200 --> 0:41:38.400
<v Speaker 1>to where I believe it is, and that is, we

0:41:38.520 --> 0:41:43.359
<v Speaker 1>have weaponized and we have politicized our intelligence community more

0:41:43.440 --> 0:41:47.680
<v Speaker 1>and more. My suspicion goes to the higher echelon of

0:41:48.200 --> 0:41:55.399
<v Speaker 1>government and government spy agencies, meaning like ie CIA Director Brennan. Well,

0:41:55.520 --> 0:41:58.239
<v Speaker 1>certainly a lot of there's going to be a lot

0:41:58.280 --> 0:42:02.520
<v Speaker 1>of questions, especially when it when it comes to the CIA.

0:42:02.600 --> 0:42:05.560
<v Speaker 1>By the way, whenever, whenever you start saying, like when

0:42:05.600 --> 0:42:08.440
<v Speaker 1>you slow down, I know you're being very careful with

0:42:08.520 --> 0:42:11.200
<v Speaker 1>your words. Let's go back to my original question. What

0:42:11.520 --> 0:42:17.879
<v Speaker 1>I see happening here is the weaponization of intelligence, politicizing intelligence,

0:42:18.440 --> 0:42:22.160
<v Speaker 1>and it all the only logical place this goes as

0:42:22.200 --> 0:42:27.360
<v Speaker 1>to those in the upper echelon, people like CIA Director Brennan.

0:42:29.200 --> 0:42:33.600
<v Speaker 1>Now you start talking slowly and carefully. Go ahead, You're

0:42:33.640 --> 0:42:36.160
<v Speaker 1>gonna make me talk slow. We have to be very careful.

0:42:36.239 --> 0:42:38.759
<v Speaker 1>That's why I'm talking slowly. That's why I'm asking. All

0:42:38.800 --> 0:42:42.759
<v Speaker 1>of this has to be based on evidence, right, we

0:42:42.920 --> 0:42:46.320
<v Speaker 1>have to agree, prove it public. That's why I'm asking

0:42:46.400 --> 0:42:50.600
<v Speaker 1>a question. But it does, it does. I am an

0:42:50.640 --> 0:42:52.560
<v Speaker 1>awful human being. I don't even know why you come

0:42:52.600 --> 0:42:54.560
<v Speaker 1>on my show, but I'm but but I need we

0:42:54.640 --> 0:42:58.799
<v Speaker 1>need a serious answer to that, because to me, that's you. Yes,

0:42:58.880 --> 0:43:00.400
<v Speaker 1>we do, and I what I can say is this,

0:43:01.120 --> 0:43:03.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, when we looked at these documents, and the

0:43:03.719 --> 0:43:09.080
<v Speaker 1>scope didn't just focus on the Congress, it focused also

0:43:09.160 --> 0:43:10.800
<v Speaker 1>as well. And if you look at some of the

0:43:10.880 --> 0:43:13.839
<v Speaker 1>documents that we have posted we've attached to Circa dot

0:43:13.880 --> 0:43:17.960
<v Speaker 1>com inside our stories, you'll see a very interesting, interesting

0:43:19.080 --> 0:43:26.520
<v Speaker 1>point that you're trying to make. There were journalists, clergy, doctors,

0:43:27.000 --> 0:43:33.200
<v Speaker 1>lawyers that are also included in these rules on FISA intercepts. Okay,

0:43:33.680 --> 0:43:37.719
<v Speaker 1>so it's very interesting how the FBI intercepts people and

0:43:37.960 --> 0:43:43.360
<v Speaker 1>unmasks them. In twenty fifteen, it became very specific. And

0:43:43.480 --> 0:43:45.920
<v Speaker 1>this is very important, Shine, because this was something that

0:43:45.960 --> 0:43:49.000
<v Speaker 1>you had asked me about, you know, just yesterday, and

0:43:49.360 --> 0:43:51.680
<v Speaker 1>when we were talking about this, you know, we're journalists

0:43:51.719 --> 0:43:54.600
<v Speaker 1>swept up in this, all right. No, I got to

0:43:54.640 --> 0:43:56.560
<v Speaker 1>ask you when we get back, is if you found

0:43:56.600 --> 0:43:58.879
<v Speaker 1>any information? I mean, do you know how many people

0:43:58.960 --> 0:44:02.600
<v Speaker 1>are writing me telling me I have been surveiled and unmasked.

0:44:02.640 --> 0:44:06.120
<v Speaker 1>I have not been able to confirm that, but unless

0:44:06.160 --> 0:44:08.160
<v Speaker 1>Sarah Carter from Circuit News, when we get back in

0:44:08.280 --> 0:44:13.240
<v Speaker 1>National Security Correspondent, Senior national security correspondent. Our new pieces

0:44:13.280 --> 0:44:15.200
<v Speaker 1>up on Hannity dot com from today if you need

0:44:15.239 --> 0:44:17.120
<v Speaker 1>to get a link to it. Eight hundred nine for

0:44:17.280 --> 0:44:18.800
<v Speaker 1>one Sean is our number. You want to be a

0:44:18.840 --> 0:44:20.600
<v Speaker 1>part of the program. We'll take a quick break, we'll

0:44:20.640 --> 0:44:23.760
<v Speaker 1>come back. We'll continue with Sarah and at the bottom

0:44:23.800 --> 0:44:25.640
<v Speaker 1>of the hour and Culter joins us to weigh in

0:44:25.719 --> 0:44:28.880
<v Speaker 1>on this and Neil Gorsuch and the constitutional options. So

0:44:29.080 --> 0:44:31.080
<v Speaker 1>right when we come back, and Coulter joins us on

0:44:31.280 --> 0:44:34.960
<v Speaker 1>Neil Gorsuch and the constitutional option, and of course the

0:44:35.120 --> 0:44:39.000
<v Speaker 1>latest on what is now becoming I guess you can

0:44:39.080 --> 0:44:42.719
<v Speaker 1>call it, I guess the politicization of the intel community

0:44:42.880 --> 0:44:46.319
<v Speaker 1>and the weaponizing of the intelligence community. All right, that's

0:44:46.400 --> 0:44:48.080
<v Speaker 1>up next with Culter and then your calls in the

0:44:48.120 --> 0:44:53.640
<v Speaker 1>final hour, bite sized version of the show that you

0:44:53.760 --> 0:44:58.920
<v Speaker 1>can take with you to sign up today for Hannity

0:44:59.040 --> 0:45:03.720
<v Speaker 1>Headlines Kennedy dot com. All Right, as we continue, Sarah

0:45:03.800 --> 0:45:07.560
<v Speaker 1>Carter now, who has been doing incredible investigative work on

0:45:07.680 --> 0:45:11.799
<v Speaker 1>this whole issue of surveillance and unmasking and leaking of intelligence.

0:45:11.960 --> 0:45:14.759
<v Speaker 1>She is a senior national correspondent for Circa dot com,

0:45:15.239 --> 0:45:17.520
<v Speaker 1>and she along with John Solomon, have their latest piece

0:45:17.600 --> 0:45:22.040
<v Speaker 1>out today about how US by agencies intercept and unmasked

0:45:22.080 --> 0:45:24.960
<v Speaker 1>congressional figures as often as once a month. And we

0:45:25.040 --> 0:45:28.360
<v Speaker 1>have Peter King on record saying that, well, the information

0:45:28.560 --> 0:45:33.200
<v Speaker 1>that was being gleaned by Susan Rice's unmasking, etc. Contained

0:45:33.280 --> 0:45:37.280
<v Speaker 1>personal dirt on people associated with Donald Trump. He described

0:45:37.320 --> 0:45:40.040
<v Speaker 1>it as news and information about their everyday lives. Like

0:45:40.080 --> 0:45:43.399
<v Speaker 1>a divorce case. We have attorneys and investigators looking into

0:45:43.600 --> 0:45:46.680
<v Speaker 1>what a spouse is doing to the other spouse. All right,

0:45:46.719 --> 0:45:49.520
<v Speaker 1>So I know you probably because you're all over the story.

0:45:49.600 --> 0:45:51.839
<v Speaker 1>Maybe people have asked you about me in this case.

0:45:51.920 --> 0:45:54.400
<v Speaker 1>But I mean I'm getting asked by everybody every single

0:45:54.480 --> 0:45:56.760
<v Speaker 1>minute of every day, and I don't have an answer,

0:45:57.000 --> 0:45:59.360
<v Speaker 1>and I'm just reading what everybody else is reading, and

0:45:59.800 --> 0:46:02.040
<v Speaker 1>I haven't gotten any word back as of yet. I mean,

0:46:02.160 --> 0:46:04.680
<v Speaker 1>what is all of this about me? And this whole thing? Yeah, well,

0:46:04.680 --> 0:46:07.360
<v Speaker 1>I think that you know, people obviously see you. I

0:46:07.400 --> 0:46:11.080
<v Speaker 1>mean you've been very outspoken, You've had a very close

0:46:11.120 --> 0:46:14.200
<v Speaker 1>relationship with President Trump, and of course you're swept up

0:46:14.239 --> 0:46:18.360
<v Speaker 1>into this whirlwind of controversy, and I think you have

0:46:18.400 --> 0:46:20.920
<v Speaker 1>a right to be concerned and wonder if you know

0:46:21.120 --> 0:46:24.000
<v Speaker 1>there was any unmasking of your phone conversations. Now, remember

0:46:24.120 --> 0:46:27.200
<v Speaker 1>it would be conversations that you would have had from

0:46:27.239 --> 0:46:29.680
<v Speaker 1>the United States to somebody foreign, or they could have

0:46:29.760 --> 0:46:33.000
<v Speaker 1>rerouted it foreign to foreign back over to somebody else

0:46:33.120 --> 0:46:36.040
<v Speaker 1>that was talking about you. So there's very interesting ways

0:46:36.080 --> 0:46:38.840
<v Speaker 1>and different kinds of loopholes that would allow people to

0:46:39.040 --> 0:46:42.160
<v Speaker 1>unmask and find out more information about you. Like I said,

0:46:42.160 --> 0:46:45.879
<v Speaker 1>you've interviewed Julianna Sange many times. If you had conversations

0:46:45.920 --> 0:46:48.400
<v Speaker 1>with him on your cell phone, very easily your name

0:46:48.440 --> 0:46:50.680
<v Speaker 1>could have been unmask Shaun. The thing is, we don't know,

0:46:50.960 --> 0:46:54.600
<v Speaker 1>right because they are such highly classified document and unless

0:46:54.640 --> 0:46:57.920
<v Speaker 1>somebody's willing to leak that information, unless someone's willing to

0:46:58.040 --> 0:47:00.600
<v Speaker 1>share that information. So I need, if I need, a

0:47:00.640 --> 0:47:03.600
<v Speaker 1>friend inside the intelligence community that knows about it that

0:47:03.600 --> 0:47:06.600
<v Speaker 1>would give me that information. Wouldn't that look I don't.

0:47:06.640 --> 0:47:09.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm being very clear about this. I cannot confirm or

0:47:09.440 --> 0:47:11.560
<v Speaker 1>corroborate this in any way, and I'm only reading what

0:47:11.640 --> 0:47:13.800
<v Speaker 1>other people are reading. But wouldn't that open up for

0:47:13.960 --> 0:47:17.560
<v Speaker 1>me a right for civil litigation and civil action against

0:47:17.600 --> 0:47:20.640
<v Speaker 1>those people? That surveiled and unmasked me. You know, I'm

0:47:20.680 --> 0:47:23.360
<v Speaker 1>not a lawyer, but I believe it would. I believe

0:47:23.400 --> 0:47:25.840
<v Speaker 1>it would because there are certain Amendment rights, and you know,

0:47:25.920 --> 0:47:28.440
<v Speaker 1>we think of certain protections, especially when it comes to

0:47:29.440 --> 0:47:31.120
<v Speaker 1>and I don't know, especially when it comes to our

0:47:31.520 --> 0:47:33.920
<v Speaker 1>civil liberties, and you know, be able to speak privately

0:47:34.000 --> 0:47:36.440
<v Speaker 1>to someone on a phone, especially when you're not conducting

0:47:36.480 --> 0:47:39.160
<v Speaker 1>and you're not doing anything criminal, when there's no warrant

0:47:39.280 --> 0:47:41.800
<v Speaker 1>for you, when you're just a regular citizen with a

0:47:41.880 --> 0:47:44.040
<v Speaker 1>right to believe the way you want to believe, and

0:47:44.200 --> 0:47:47.160
<v Speaker 1>everybody has those right as long as you don't harm

0:47:47.239 --> 0:47:49.759
<v Speaker 1>anyone else or you're not committing a criminal act, you

0:47:49.840 --> 0:47:51.960
<v Speaker 1>should have the right to privacy. But one of the

0:47:52.120 --> 0:47:55.359
<v Speaker 1>interesting things that we discovered in our reporting, both John

0:47:55.400 --> 0:47:57.239
<v Speaker 1>and I, was that, you know, when the FBI wrote

0:47:57.239 --> 0:48:00.320
<v Speaker 1>the ruled in twenty fifteen, it actually came up with

0:48:00.400 --> 0:48:04.120
<v Speaker 1>this idea like of circumstances in which you know, by

0:48:04.239 --> 0:48:08.280
<v Speaker 1>the intercepts could be enmassed and shared in other sensitive

0:48:08.600 --> 0:48:10.719
<v Speaker 1>professions like we think, I think of myself as a

0:48:10.800 --> 0:48:13.640
<v Speaker 1>journalist as having you know, extra care. They're going to

0:48:13.680 --> 0:48:16.120
<v Speaker 1>take extra caution, right because the FBI is really not

0:48:16.200 --> 0:48:20.120
<v Speaker 1>going to want to get involved in investigating me per

0:48:20.200 --> 0:48:23.640
<v Speaker 1>se because I'm trying to report stories. We have sources.

0:48:23.920 --> 0:48:26.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, what happens as long as I'm not violating

0:48:26.520 --> 0:48:29.719
<v Speaker 1>any laws, you should not be exactly. I've got to go,

0:48:29.880 --> 0:48:32.080
<v Speaker 1>but I've got to praise you and John. I mean,

0:48:32.120 --> 0:48:34.600
<v Speaker 1>you guys are like the Woodward and Bernstein of our time,

0:48:34.800 --> 0:48:37.200

0:48:37.280 --> 0:48:40.080

0:49:22.840 --> 0:49:25.160
<v Speaker 1>gonna bring in in Coulter here in just a second.

0:49:25.200 --> 0:49:29.040
<v Speaker 1>But first and foremost, let's let's go over Susan Rice

0:49:29.520 --> 0:49:33.040
<v Speaker 1>lying just two weeks ago on PBS and then totally

0:49:33.120 --> 0:49:36.880
<v Speaker 1>contradicting yourself two days ago on NBC. I know nothing

0:49:36.920 --> 0:49:41.720
<v Speaker 1>about this. I was surprised to see reports from Chairman

0:49:41.800 --> 0:49:45.000
<v Speaker 1>Unis on that count today. I mean, let's back up

0:49:45.040 --> 0:49:48.239
<v Speaker 1>and recall where we have been. The President of the

0:49:48.280 --> 0:49:53.680
<v Speaker 1>United States accused his predecessor, President Obama, wire tapping Trump

0:49:53.760 --> 0:49:57.200
<v Speaker 1>Tower during the campaign. Nothing of the sort occurred. Did

0:49:57.280 --> 0:50:02.840
<v Speaker 1>you seek the names of people involved in to unmask

0:50:02.920 --> 0:50:05.160
<v Speaker 1>the names that people involved in the Trump transition, of

0:50:05.200 --> 0:50:09.320
<v Speaker 1>the Trump campaign, people surrounding the President elect, let me

0:50:09.360 --> 0:50:13.080
<v Speaker 1>be ordered to spy on them, and absolutely, absolutely not

0:50:13.440 --> 0:50:16.919
<v Speaker 1>for any political purposes to spy expose anything. I really

0:50:16.960 --> 0:50:21.480
<v Speaker 1>don't know to what Chaman Nunez was referring, but he

0:50:21.640 --> 0:50:25.280
<v Speaker 1>said that whatever he was referring to was a legal,

0:50:25.640 --> 0:50:32.440
<v Speaker 1>lawful surveillance and that it was potentially incidental collection on

0:50:32.920 --> 0:50:35.440
<v Speaker 1>American citizens. And I think it's important for people to

0:50:35.520 --> 0:50:39.239
<v Speaker 1>understand what incidental means. That means that the target was

0:50:40.120 --> 0:50:43.960
<v Speaker 1>either a foreign entity, or somebody under criminal investigation. But

0:50:44.239 --> 0:50:49.839
<v Speaker 1>the fact is that in the President did request back

0:50:49.880 --> 0:50:54.040
<v Speaker 1>in December the intelligence community compile all of the information

0:50:54.600 --> 0:50:57.440
<v Speaker 1>that it had on what it transpired during the campaign

0:50:57.520 --> 0:51:01.040
<v Speaker 1>with respect to the Russians involving them selves in the

0:51:01.120 --> 0:51:05.480
<v Speaker 1>presidential campaign, and that report was provided to the American

0:51:05.560 --> 0:51:09.200
<v Speaker 1>people and unclassified for him into Congress, in classified for

0:51:09.280 --> 0:51:13.799
<v Speaker 1>him in early January. Did the pace accelerate during the transition,

0:51:14.360 --> 0:51:19.480
<v Speaker 1>perhaps in early December, perhaps when the President ordered investigation

0:51:19.560 --> 0:51:23.480
<v Speaker 1>into the hacking, the Russian hacking? Did the pace of

0:51:24.320 --> 0:51:28.480
<v Speaker 1>unmasking requests, if you're unmasking requests accelerate towards the end

0:51:28.560 --> 0:51:30.600
<v Speaker 1>of the White House a tenure? And I can't say

0:51:30.640 --> 0:51:33.719
<v Speaker 1>the pace of unmasking requests would accelerate, but if you're

0:51:33.760 --> 0:51:38.040
<v Speaker 1>asking where they're more reports provided to senior US officials

0:51:38.560 --> 0:51:42.839
<v Speaker 1>after the President requested the compilation of the intelligence which

0:51:43.680 --> 0:51:48.600
<v Speaker 1>was ultimately provided in January. Yes, what happened was, as

0:51:48.680 --> 0:51:51.919
<v Speaker 1>the IC went about the business the intelligence community religencesiness

0:51:51.960 --> 0:51:54.480
<v Speaker 1>of following up on the Presidence order fulfilling the Presidence

0:51:54.520 --> 0:51:57.720
<v Speaker 1>requests for such a report, they went back and scrubbed

0:51:57.800 --> 0:52:01.160
<v Speaker 1>more reports. They began to provide more such reports to

0:52:01.440 --> 0:52:07.520
<v Speaker 1>American officials, including myself. This is not anything politicals has

0:52:07.640 --> 0:52:13.080
<v Speaker 1>been alleged. The allegation is that somehow Obama administration officials

0:52:14.000 --> 0:52:17.480
<v Speaker 1>utilized intelligence for political purposes. That's absolutely false. So it

0:52:17.560 --> 0:52:21.360
<v Speaker 1>goes from knowing nothing to knowing everything and admitting unmasking,

0:52:21.719 --> 0:52:26.000
<v Speaker 1>and that means acknowledging surveillance of a candidate and then

0:52:26.200 --> 0:52:29.120
<v Speaker 1>a president elect and his transition team. And all the

0:52:29.239 --> 0:52:31.880
<v Speaker 1>reports now from Sarah Carter goal a step further that

0:52:31.960 --> 0:52:34.320
<v Speaker 1>they were looking not into anything connected to Russia, but

0:52:34.560 --> 0:52:38.360
<v Speaker 1>into the personal lives of individuals, which then raises a

0:52:38.520 --> 0:52:41.800
<v Speaker 1>lot of questions about how we have weaponized and politicized

0:52:41.960 --> 0:52:45.160
<v Speaker 1>intelligence gathering in the country. And Coulter, author of the

0:52:45.320 --> 0:52:48.680
<v Speaker 1>best selling book in Trump We Trust Eat Pluribus, awesome

0:52:48.920 --> 0:52:50.719
<v Speaker 1>as you have to talk about this and obviously the

0:52:51.080 --> 0:52:54.359
<v Speaker 1>constitutional option that is being used today. How are you, thanks?

0:52:54.440 --> 0:52:56.359
<v Speaker 1>How are you? I'm good. It's always great to talk

0:52:56.360 --> 0:52:58.240
<v Speaker 1>to you. By the way, I love reading rumors about

0:52:58.280 --> 0:53:00.400
<v Speaker 1>you on the internet. I'm not even going to mention them,

0:53:00.480 --> 0:53:03.960
<v Speaker 1>but it was very entertaining from my perspective considering our

0:53:04.040 --> 0:53:08.960
<v Speaker 1>history together. Um, well, for people who don't know basically

0:53:09.160 --> 0:53:14.400
<v Speaker 1>any well Gotha columns are always sent in by the agents.

0:53:14.880 --> 0:53:18.640
<v Speaker 1>It was on the AOL Private Life, but basically anyone

0:53:18.760 --> 0:53:21.320
<v Speaker 1>that I am alleged to be dating. You know that

0:53:21.440 --> 0:53:26.280
<v Speaker 1>in the universe possible, I am not dating those people.

0:53:26.640 --> 0:53:30.920
<v Speaker 1>It was very It actually made the wheel on AOL,

0:53:31.040 --> 0:53:33.640
<v Speaker 1>which I thought was, Wow, this must be huge, and

0:53:33.880 --> 0:53:36.560
<v Speaker 1>uh we are This one has been going around forever.

0:53:36.719 --> 0:53:39.839
<v Speaker 1>Jimmy Walker and I are friends, no romance. And he's

0:53:39.840 --> 0:53:41.440
<v Speaker 1>a great guy too. I like him a lot and

0:53:41.880 --> 0:53:44.759
<v Speaker 1>a Republican. It's correct, all right, Let's start with the

0:53:45.080 --> 0:53:48.800
<v Speaker 1>lies and the Papaha Benghazi lies and then contradicting and

0:53:48.840 --> 0:53:52.080
<v Speaker 1>then admitting surveillance on masking and Sarah Carter and now

0:53:52.160 --> 0:53:55.160
<v Speaker 1>saying it's about personal lives. Well, it's hilarious that this

0:53:55.280 --> 0:53:58.760
<v Speaker 1>has gone. I mean, everything Trump says is hysterically denounced,

0:53:58.800 --> 0:54:02.680
<v Speaker 1>and usually within two days as it's proved true from

0:54:02.719 --> 0:54:07.399
<v Speaker 1>the hysteria over at the very beginning, Um, Mexico isn't

0:54:07.520 --> 0:54:10.759
<v Speaker 1>sending their best And then you know what, a week

0:54:10.880 --> 0:54:14.399
<v Speaker 1>later we get Kate Steinley, Um, we had the um,

0:54:14.480 --> 0:54:17.319
<v Speaker 1>look at what's happening in Sweden? What are you talking about?

0:54:17.360 --> 0:54:19.520
<v Speaker 1>Sweden is the safest place in the World's huge riot

0:54:19.719 --> 0:54:22.640
<v Speaker 1>Muslim rides blow up, and now we've gone to I mean,

0:54:22.680 --> 0:54:25.200
<v Speaker 1>this is one of the most stunning turnabouts I've seen

0:54:25.440 --> 0:54:29.279
<v Speaker 1>from Trump. Means to apologize to Obama for accusing him

0:54:29.280 --> 0:54:32.840
<v Speaker 1>of committing a felony and spying on the Trump campaign

0:54:33.000 --> 0:54:36.400
<v Speaker 1>to well, yeah, we were spying, but it wasn't political

0:54:36.520 --> 0:54:39.200
<v Speaker 1>and it wasn't too love. We do it everybody. It's

0:54:39.440 --> 0:54:42.560
<v Speaker 1>the craziest turnabout, and now you know, we at least

0:54:42.640 --> 0:54:46.200
<v Speaker 1>understand m. It seems like kind of overkill to be

0:54:46.440 --> 0:54:50.880
<v Speaker 1>so upset about Hillary losing, um, for Democrats and the

0:54:50.960 --> 0:54:55.920
<v Speaker 1>media to obsess on this nothing burger Russia story um,

0:54:55.960 --> 0:54:58.759
<v Speaker 1>which is completely collapsed um. And I wrote a little

0:54:58.800 --> 0:55:02.120
<v Speaker 1>about that this week. But now we see why they

0:55:02.160 --> 0:55:04.160
<v Speaker 1>were doing it. This was going to be their excuse

0:55:04.239 --> 0:55:10.279
<v Speaker 1>when they get exposed for spying on private citizens, unmasking

0:55:10.360 --> 0:55:12.480
<v Speaker 1>them from the White House itself. I mean, it's getting

0:55:12.480 --> 0:55:14.440
<v Speaker 1>to the point where we're going to find that Obama

0:55:14.520 --> 0:55:17.920
<v Speaker 1>was actually crawling around, you know, wiring Trump power. The

0:55:17.960 --> 0:55:20.960
<v Speaker 1>way things are going with their story unraveling, but now

0:55:21.080 --> 0:55:23.439
<v Speaker 1>this is going to be their defense. Well, we had

0:55:23.520 --> 0:55:26.440
<v Speaker 1>to because of this fear of Russian collusion with the

0:55:26.520 --> 0:55:29.880
<v Speaker 1>Trump team, And if I could just mention one thing

0:55:29.920 --> 0:55:32.600
<v Speaker 1>that hasn't been hasn't been talked about because there's no

0:55:32.960 --> 0:55:38.120
<v Speaker 1>evidence for Russia trying to influence the election. What I

0:55:38.200 --> 0:55:40.399
<v Speaker 1>wrote about this week because I hadn't seen anyone else

0:55:40.440 --> 0:55:43.560
<v Speaker 1>say this. The basic story, apart from the absence of evidence,

0:55:43.800 --> 0:55:50.080
<v Speaker 1>the basic story is is cockamami. Their claim is Russia

0:55:50.280 --> 0:55:53.640
<v Speaker 1>wanted Trump to win point one point two, that their

0:55:54.120 --> 0:55:58.040
<v Speaker 1>dastardly planned for accomplishing making from the President of the

0:55:58.160 --> 0:56:01.440
<v Speaker 1>United States was to get in and release emails from

0:56:01.480 --> 0:56:05.680
<v Speaker 1>the DNC showing that the DNC was being horrible to

0:56:05.800 --> 0:56:10.279
<v Speaker 1>Bernie Sanders. It's just a crazy theory on every level.

0:56:10.360 --> 0:56:14.400
<v Speaker 1>This is that Russia is a nation trained in spycraft. Um,

0:56:14.719 --> 0:56:19.799
<v Speaker 1>we didn't even know. We American experts, in politicans didn't

0:56:19.840 --> 0:56:21.880
<v Speaker 1>know how this election was going to turn out. I

0:56:21.920 --> 0:56:24.160
<v Speaker 1>remember the Democrats were praying, Oh, we want to run

0:56:24.200 --> 0:56:28.000
<v Speaker 1>against Trump. Pah, this is disaster for Republicans. M The

0:56:28.080 --> 0:56:31.279
<v Speaker 1>day of the election, New York Times had Hillary with

0:56:31.360 --> 0:56:35.320
<v Speaker 1>a ninety one percent chance of winning. But oh and

0:56:35.760 --> 0:56:38.080
<v Speaker 1>plus the idea that Russia would not want to deal

0:56:38.160 --> 0:56:42.440
<v Speaker 1>with the corrupt, biable president Hillary Clinton, but rather a

0:56:42.560 --> 0:56:46.040
<v Speaker 1>loose cannon who wants to drill Donald Trump. But how

0:56:46.080 --> 0:56:49.520
<v Speaker 1>are releasing these emails with the DNC and W Washington

0:56:50.320 --> 0:56:53.759
<v Speaker 1>going after Bernie Sanders? How does that help Trump? It

0:56:53.880 --> 0:56:55.759
<v Speaker 1>could have been the worst thing that happened to Trump.

0:56:55.800 --> 0:56:58.680
<v Speaker 1>The Democrats might have gotten their act together and said,

0:56:59.040 --> 0:57:02.600
<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh, taking us down to defeat. We've got

0:57:02.719 --> 0:57:05.080
<v Speaker 1>to have a come to Jesus moment with with Hillary

0:57:05.120 --> 0:57:07.040
<v Speaker 1>and tell her she's got to drop out. We're running

0:57:07.120 --> 0:57:10.160
<v Speaker 1>Joe Biden. You just never know how these things are

0:57:10.239 --> 0:57:13.120
<v Speaker 1>going to affect an election, and the idea that this

0:57:13.320 --> 0:57:16.760
<v Speaker 1>was Russia's idea. Add to that the fact that Julian Assange,

0:57:16.760 --> 0:57:20.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, quite obviously the logical leaker here is someone

0:57:20.280 --> 0:57:25.120
<v Speaker 1>within the DNC who thought Hillary's taking us down to defeat.

0:57:25.200 --> 0:57:27.200
<v Speaker 1>We've had it with the David Brox and the de

0:57:27.280 --> 0:57:31.000
<v Speaker 1>Wie Wasserman. Schulza's um leaking this stuff. And that's what

0:57:31.160 --> 0:57:34.320
<v Speaker 1>Julian Assange says, as well as one of his associates.

0:57:34.560 --> 0:57:37.760
<v Speaker 1>That's where they say it came from a DNC whistleblower,

0:57:38.040 --> 0:57:40.040
<v Speaker 1>which is the only story that makes sense. Well, it

0:57:40.120 --> 0:57:42.800
<v Speaker 1>was actually one of his associates. He's never confirmed. I

0:57:42.840 --> 0:57:44.840
<v Speaker 1>did ask him when I had a chance to interview him.

0:57:45.000 --> 0:57:46.960
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's funny how he comes under fire. But

0:57:47.000 --> 0:57:49.600
<v Speaker 1>the New York Times printed everything he printed. Well, he

0:57:49.720 --> 0:57:52.479
<v Speaker 1>did clearly say it's not roche. He'd say, he said

0:57:52.480 --> 0:57:57.640
<v Speaker 1>that the guy who collected it um allegedly he describes

0:57:57.800 --> 0:58:01.120
<v Speaker 1>where it was a DNC whistle blow were past him,

0:58:01.160 --> 0:58:04.160
<v Speaker 1>the emails. It was a park near American University. And

0:58:04.280 --> 0:58:06.560
<v Speaker 1>whatever you think of it, Julian Assaji, maybe you know

0:58:06.640 --> 0:58:10.160
<v Speaker 1>a reckless zealot. Nobody says he's a liar. He's very

0:58:10.240 --> 0:58:13.360
<v Speaker 1>nearly the opposite. He's, you know, maybe a little too

0:58:13.520 --> 0:58:15.800
<v Speaker 1>self righteous, but he's not the kind of person who lives.

0:58:15.840 --> 0:58:18.320
<v Speaker 1>He says, not Russia. It's a d NC whistleblower. And again,

0:58:18.360 --> 0:58:21.439
<v Speaker 1>the whole story. It only makes sense of the DNC whistleblower.

0:58:22.720 --> 0:58:25.320
<v Speaker 1>But now we see lives. They're so obsessed with these

0:58:25.400 --> 0:58:30.080
<v Speaker 1>weird connections and really crazy conspiracy theories, which is always

0:58:30.120 --> 0:58:33.600
<v Speaker 1>a specialty of the left. They need to pretend there's

0:58:33.680 --> 0:58:36.520
<v Speaker 1>some sort of collusion between Trump and Russia to explain

0:58:36.960 --> 0:58:40.600
<v Speaker 1>why they were using the apparatus of the federal government,

0:58:40.680 --> 0:58:46.360
<v Speaker 1>national security, deep state intelligence to spy on political opponents. Well,

0:58:46.400 --> 0:58:48.680
<v Speaker 1>and it gets deeper, and this goes to the heart

0:58:48.680 --> 0:58:52.080
<v Speaker 1>of Sarah Carter's big breakthrough article today, and that is

0:58:52.280 --> 0:58:55.960
<v Speaker 1>that not only were they surveiling and unmasking and in

0:58:56.040 --> 0:58:58.640
<v Speaker 1>the case of general fun leaking, which is a felony,

0:58:59.040 --> 0:59:02.240
<v Speaker 1>but we now find out that almost it resembled almost

0:59:02.280 --> 0:59:06.560
<v Speaker 1>a private investigator's file, and the information is about people's

0:59:06.640 --> 0:59:09.880
<v Speaker 1>everyday lives. And that's confirmed by Peter King of New York,

0:59:09.960 --> 0:59:12.160
<v Speaker 1>the congressman. He said, it's sort of like in a

0:59:12.280 --> 0:59:15.360
<v Speaker 1>divorce case where the lawyers are hired, investigators are hired

0:59:15.720 --> 0:59:17.640
<v Speaker 1>just to find out what the other person is doing

0:59:17.760 --> 0:59:21.040
<v Speaker 1>morning until night, until you try and piece it together, right, right,

0:59:21.200 --> 0:59:25.120
<v Speaker 1>And that's a police state. And this is now I know, well,

0:59:25.360 --> 0:59:28.479
<v Speaker 1>the police state is now in the control of Donald Trump,

0:59:28.520 --> 0:59:31.000
<v Speaker 1>and I think they got to start declassifying and releasing

0:59:31.040 --> 0:59:33.720
<v Speaker 1>all this stuff. I mean, I suspect what they're doing

0:59:33.960 --> 0:59:38.560
<v Speaker 1>is allowing the Democrats to go out more and more

0:59:38.760 --> 0:59:42.600
<v Speaker 1>and more on a limb before revealing the truth. But

0:59:42.720 --> 0:59:46.360
<v Speaker 1>this is now in the control of President Trump, and

0:59:46.640 --> 0:59:49.760
<v Speaker 1>it may be I doubt it'll be particularly embarrassing. It

0:59:49.840 --> 0:59:51.920
<v Speaker 1>might be a little embarrassing for some people who are

0:59:51.960 --> 0:59:56.080
<v Speaker 1>being secretly surveiled, but I think it's worth it. This

0:59:56.240 --> 0:59:58.280
<v Speaker 1>is a pretty shocking I may have to hire you

0:59:58.360 --> 1:00:00.640
<v Speaker 1>as my lawyer too, because I got Jay Seculo and

1:00:00.800 --> 1:00:02.960
<v Speaker 1>Joe Degeneva and maybe I'll get you in Levine and

1:00:03.040 --> 1:00:05.320
<v Speaker 1>part of my team. If I was surveiled in a

1:00:05.440 --> 1:00:07.800
<v Speaker 1>mass what do you think, Oh, you're just gonna be

1:00:07.880 --> 1:00:11.320
<v Speaker 1>talking about the Penny plan. It'll be fine. See thanks

1:00:11.320 --> 1:00:13.320
<v Speaker 1>a lot, and you know, just at least let's create

1:00:13.360 --> 1:00:15.360
<v Speaker 1>an image that it might be a little more interesting

1:00:15.400 --> 1:00:18.360
<v Speaker 1>than that. You know, you can demand that your tapes

1:00:18.440 --> 1:00:20.320
<v Speaker 1>be released because I'm want to see them all. I mean,

1:00:20.480 --> 1:00:22.960
<v Speaker 1>if they were going after you, I have no problem.

1:00:23.320 --> 1:00:25.960
<v Speaker 1>I have no problem if they were. I mean that

1:00:26.160 --> 1:00:28.480
<v Speaker 1>he only does show how crazy and how political. No,

1:00:28.800 --> 1:00:32.280
<v Speaker 1>that's just it's tied in with the whole there's obsession

1:00:32.360 --> 1:00:34.760
<v Speaker 1>with Bill O'Reilly right now. And if we could just

1:00:34.800 --> 1:00:38.840
<v Speaker 1>have a little footnote on that. What Fox News compared

1:00:38.920 --> 1:00:45.280
<v Speaker 1>to other cable networks. Good grief at one prominent cable networks.

1:00:45.760 --> 1:00:49.520
<v Speaker 1>And I know it's unbelievable. You and I know more

1:00:49.680 --> 1:00:52.280
<v Speaker 1>stories and by the way, also the heads and networks,

1:00:52.480 --> 1:00:54.080
<v Speaker 1>if you know what I'm talking about. Stay right there.

1:00:54.080 --> 1:01:03.240
<v Speaker 1>All right, we'll take a break more within culture, all right,

1:01:03.280 --> 1:01:06.040
<v Speaker 1>Sean Hannity Show News Round Up, Information Overload Hour coming

1:01:06.120 --> 1:01:08.280
<v Speaker 1>up at the top of the next hour. Our buddy

1:01:08.360 --> 1:01:10.640
<v Speaker 1>Rick Unger is here to get beaten up again today.

1:01:10.760 --> 1:01:12.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why it comes back for more punishment.

1:01:12.480 --> 1:01:14.200
<v Speaker 1>He's going to join us in studio in a minute.

1:01:14.400 --> 1:01:16.560
<v Speaker 1>We continue with Ann Coulter. All right. So, I don't

1:01:16.600 --> 1:01:19.400
<v Speaker 1>know if I like the term nuclear option, I would

1:01:19.440 --> 1:01:22.120
<v Speaker 1>call it the Harry Read precedent, or I'd call it

1:01:22.320 --> 1:01:25.520
<v Speaker 1>the constitutional option. And that is this is the first

1:01:25.600 --> 1:01:28.280
<v Speaker 1>time in a couple of hundred years that, for purely

1:01:28.480 --> 1:01:31.560
<v Speaker 1>partisan reasons, you have a political party that won't allow

1:01:31.600 --> 1:01:34.240
<v Speaker 1>an up or down vote. So Republicans finally are showing

1:01:34.240 --> 1:01:35.960
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of backbone. I've got to give him

1:01:35.960 --> 1:01:38.280
<v Speaker 1>credit on this. Yes, I'm so glad you asked about

1:01:38.320 --> 1:01:41.840
<v Speaker 1>this because I know other people have jobs, they don't

1:01:41.880 --> 1:01:44.680
<v Speaker 1>sit around reading all day like I do. And I

1:01:44.760 --> 1:01:47.200
<v Speaker 1>think conservatives should know the truth about this. And the

1:01:47.320 --> 1:01:53.280
<v Speaker 1>truth is the supermajority requirements are absolutely unconstitutional. The Constitution

1:01:54.600 --> 1:01:59.040
<v Speaker 1>clearly expected majority votes for basically everything in the Senate,

1:01:59.280 --> 1:02:03.720
<v Speaker 1>and when it is not those cases are expressly identified.

1:02:04.000 --> 1:02:06.280
<v Speaker 1>There are five cases where you need a two thirds

1:02:06.360 --> 1:02:10.800
<v Speaker 1>vote to pass something in the US Senate. One impeachment,

1:02:11.640 --> 1:02:18.040
<v Speaker 1>two expulsions, three to override a presidential veto, four treaties,

1:02:18.240 --> 1:02:21.640
<v Speaker 1>and five to pass a constitutional amendment. Now, what sense

1:02:21.720 --> 1:02:25.640
<v Speaker 1>does it make for the Constitution to expressly say, after

1:02:25.760 --> 1:02:28.000
<v Speaker 1>Congress passes a law sends it to the president, the

1:02:28.040 --> 1:02:31.800
<v Speaker 1>president vetos that you can override that Vito with a

1:02:31.880 --> 1:02:34.440
<v Speaker 1>two thirds vote. But wait, now, suddenly we need a

1:02:34.520 --> 1:02:36.360
<v Speaker 1>two thirds vote to even pass the law in the

1:02:36.400 --> 1:02:40.360
<v Speaker 1>first place. It makes no sense. This is an unconstitutional

1:02:40.480 --> 1:02:43.440
<v Speaker 1>rule that's been invented by the Senate. I don't know

1:02:43.480 --> 1:02:45.959
<v Speaker 1>if anyone's ever challenged or if the courts would feel

1:02:46.000 --> 1:02:49.920
<v Speaker 1>like they had a right to rule on a political

1:02:50.040 --> 1:02:52.520
<v Speaker 1>rule of the Senate. But all we're doing with the

1:02:52.920 --> 1:02:57.080
<v Speaker 1>so called nuclear option is getting back to a constitutional

1:02:57.200 --> 1:02:59.280
<v Speaker 1>method of voting. And by the way, sometimes this will

1:02:59.320 --> 1:03:02.720
<v Speaker 1>go against us. I'm not saying this with passion because

1:03:02.840 --> 1:03:06.080
<v Speaker 1>Republicans have a majority right now. They wouldn't have needed

1:03:06.120 --> 1:03:11.240
<v Speaker 1>Al Franken's vote to pass that monstrosity obanare, But it

1:03:11.480 --> 1:03:13.640
<v Speaker 1>is the way the constitution is written. And I think

1:03:13.680 --> 1:03:16.560
<v Speaker 1>our constitutional framers are smarter than we are. Yeah, I

1:03:16.680 --> 1:03:18.640
<v Speaker 1>think so too, and I've been proven right again and

1:03:18.680 --> 1:03:21.280
<v Speaker 1>again over time. What do you think about expanding it

1:03:21.440 --> 1:03:26.960
<v Speaker 1>or broadening these rules changes beyond just judiciary appointments. Absolutely,

1:03:27.040 --> 1:03:28.960
<v Speaker 1>as I was just saying, to pass a law, it

1:03:29.040 --> 1:03:31.640
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't be a majority vote. Now, look, that doesn't mean

1:03:31.720 --> 1:03:34.280
<v Speaker 1>the Senate can have rules. They keep defending this two

1:03:34.360 --> 1:03:37.480
<v Speaker 1>thirds vote is saying, well, we have to the minority

1:03:37.600 --> 1:03:40.680
<v Speaker 1>have be able to chit chat. Okay, you can listen

1:03:40.720 --> 1:03:42.440
<v Speaker 1>to their views. There are other things you can do.

1:03:42.640 --> 1:03:45.160
<v Speaker 1>We can say we'll give you an hour. We can

1:03:45.200 --> 1:03:48.360
<v Speaker 1>say you can filibuster. Go ahead, but you got to

1:03:48.400 --> 1:03:52.080
<v Speaker 1>stand on the floor and filibuster. But but no, that

1:03:52.400 --> 1:03:55.919
<v Speaker 1>in fact, I mean, as many constitutional scholars have written about,

1:03:56.760 --> 1:03:59.360
<v Speaker 1>that was part of the reason the Articles of Confederation

1:03:59.440 --> 1:04:02.200
<v Speaker 1>were dumb time we moved to a constitution, and also

1:04:02.280 --> 1:04:05.240
<v Speaker 1>the whole mood of the country after the revolution was

1:04:05.560 --> 1:04:08.960
<v Speaker 1>we're sick of being ruled by a tiny minority of elite.

1:04:09.040 --> 1:04:11.480
<v Speaker 1>We don't want to be bossed around. Yes, we don't

1:04:11.520 --> 1:04:14.440
<v Speaker 1>have a pure democracy, but when it comes to our

1:04:14.560 --> 1:04:18.560
<v Speaker 1>representatives in Congress, it is supposed to be majority wins,

1:04:18.720 --> 1:04:21.160
<v Speaker 1>not some special two thirds law. No again, that's for

1:04:21.280 --> 1:04:23.919
<v Speaker 1>our train. I gotta I'm up on a clock here.

1:04:24.000 --> 1:04:27.600
<v Speaker 1>But m E plurib is awesome. And Caulter's new book

1:04:27.720 --> 1:04:29.840
<v Speaker 1>and we could talk forever as always. We love having

1:04:29.880 --> 1:04:32.320
<v Speaker 1>you on. Thank you, Anne. And these are interesting times,

1:04:32.320 --> 1:04:35.840
<v Speaker 1>aren't they? In Trump We truck, Yes, ma'am. Flora is awesome.

1:04:36.080 --> 1:04:38.080
<v Speaker 1>All right, Thank you, Ann Caulter. When we come back,

1:04:38.160 --> 1:04:49.480
<v Speaker 1>News Roundup, Information Overload, right, News Roundup, Information Overload hour

1:04:49.560 --> 1:04:51.480
<v Speaker 1>here on the Sean Hannity Show, eight hundred and nine

1:04:51.520 --> 1:04:55.280
<v Speaker 1>four one, Sean, Oh, we got little Chucky Schumer, of course,

1:04:55.640 --> 1:04:59.840
<v Speaker 1>crybaby Schumer, and he's out there attacking the president, trying

1:04:59.880 --> 1:05:04.080
<v Speaker 1>to sounds like a tough guy. Mister, mister filibuster himself,

1:05:04.200 --> 1:05:08.400
<v Speaker 1>mister obstructionists himselves. Listen to this. When Donald Trump campaigned,

1:05:09.200 --> 1:05:12.040
<v Speaker 1>one of the main issues he campaigned on was that

1:05:12.280 --> 1:05:18.360
<v Speaker 1>China takes us out to lunch, stealing millions of American jobs,

1:05:18.840 --> 1:05:23.440
<v Speaker 1>trillions of American dollars in wealth through unfair trade practices.

1:05:23.920 --> 1:05:26.920
<v Speaker 1>And yet since Donald Trump has become president, when it

1:05:26.960 --> 1:05:30.520
<v Speaker 1>comes to trade. His policies make America look like a

1:05:30.640 --> 1:05:35.680
<v Speaker 1>ninety eight pound weekling. He has done virtually nothing. Isn't

1:05:35.680 --> 1:05:38.240
<v Speaker 1>this the same cry baby Schumer we've known about forever.

1:05:40.520 --> 1:05:43.560
<v Speaker 1>I named my daughter her middle name is Emma, named

1:05:43.640 --> 1:05:48.000
<v Speaker 1>for Emma Lazarus, the great poet who wrote those lines

1:05:48.160 --> 1:05:53.000
<v Speaker 1>on the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty. Give me

1:05:53.120 --> 1:05:57.480
<v Speaker 1>you're tired, you're poor, You're huddled masses yearning to breathe.

1:05:57.560 --> 1:06:12.160
<v Speaker 1>Three free what we cost? So this executive order, it

1:06:12.280 --> 1:06:19.040
<v Speaker 1>was mean spirited American who was implemented in a way

1:06:19.120 --> 1:06:23.440
<v Speaker 1>that created chaos and confusion across the country, and it

1:06:23.480 --> 1:06:27.200
<v Speaker 1>will only serve to embolden and inspire those around the

1:06:27.320 --> 1:06:30.360
<v Speaker 1>globe who will do us harm. I noticed that Chuck

1:06:30.440 --> 1:06:33.760
<v Speaker 1>show me yesterday with fake tears. I'm going to ask

1:06:33.840 --> 1:06:37.200
<v Speaker 1>him who was his acting coach, because I know very

1:06:37.240 --> 1:06:41.320
<v Speaker 1>well I don't see him as a crier. If he is,

1:06:41.360 --> 1:06:43.680
<v Speaker 1>he's a different man. It was about a five percent

1:06:43.800 --> 1:06:45.400
<v Speaker 1>chance that it was real, but I think there were

1:06:45.440 --> 1:06:48.320
<v Speaker 1>fake tears. I say, where was the outrage of the

1:06:48.440 --> 1:06:52.960
<v Speaker 1>Democrats when all of our companies were fleeing to Mexico

1:06:53.160 --> 1:06:57.840
<v Speaker 1>and to other places far away and leaving your jobs behind.

1:06:57.960 --> 1:07:01.600
<v Speaker 1>Now they're all coming back. Uh, Johnny Us now, Rick

1:07:01.680 --> 1:07:04.480
<v Speaker 1>Hunger and Jonathan Gillham. We're going over all the news

1:07:04.560 --> 1:07:07.880
<v Speaker 1>of the day, which is veried. Top story obviously remains surveillance.

1:07:08.080 --> 1:07:11.640
<v Speaker 1>Now we've discovered that they're literally looking into the private

1:07:11.720 --> 1:07:16.240
<v Speaker 1>lives like divorce hearings of Trump associates and of course

1:07:16.360 --> 1:07:20.120
<v Speaker 1>the Republicans. Who's in the constitutional option? Uh, mister Unger,

1:07:20.160 --> 1:07:22.280
<v Speaker 1>you want to weigh in on your your buddy Chucky.

1:07:22.360 --> 1:07:25.440
<v Speaker 1>You love Chucky, don't you chuck e cheese? Actually I

1:07:25.520 --> 1:07:27.520
<v Speaker 1>got a bigger kick out of hearing Kray there. That

1:07:27.640 --> 1:07:30.240
<v Speaker 1>was pretty good. Uh. You know, listen, I don't know

1:07:30.320 --> 1:07:33.200
<v Speaker 1>why Chucky is so upset because that executive order he

1:07:33.360 --> 1:07:37.240
<v Speaker 1>was crying about it's still stuck in the courts. You

1:07:37.280 --> 1:07:40.080
<v Speaker 1>mean you're judge shopping little technique worked? Is that what

1:07:40.160 --> 1:07:42.920
<v Speaker 1>your suggestion? Shopping? Oh? Come on, they want judge shopping

1:07:44.520 --> 1:07:46.720
<v Speaker 1>based on the states. Yeah, I guess that's probably too.

1:07:46.760 --> 1:07:49.120
<v Speaker 1>You pick states that are gonna exactly except that it

1:07:49.200 --> 1:07:52.920
<v Speaker 1>doesn't entirely work out because the states end up coming together. Uh.

1:07:53.000 --> 1:07:54.760
<v Speaker 1>And I'll tell you what, Well, then they know they're

1:07:54.760 --> 1:07:57.600
<v Speaker 1>going to the ninth. Ninth Circuit's gonna surprise you, now,

1:07:57.840 --> 1:07:59.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't. I think the Ninth Circuit's gonna come down

1:08:00.000 --> 1:08:01.800
<v Speaker 1>in a different way. But well, the Ninth Circuit is

1:08:01.840 --> 1:08:04.400
<v Speaker 1>embarrassed because about over eighty percent of the time they

1:08:04.440 --> 1:08:07.120
<v Speaker 1>are overturned. They I thought the Ninth Circuit was right

1:08:07.240 --> 1:08:09.080
<v Speaker 1>the first time around. I think it's hard to make

1:08:09.120 --> 1:08:11.560
<v Speaker 1>the case this time around. What do you think, Jonathan,

1:08:12.040 --> 1:08:14.400
<v Speaker 1>I think Chuck Schumer when he talks, it's like this,

1:08:15.000 --> 1:08:17.559
<v Speaker 1>that's not Chuck humor at all. That is so bad.

1:08:17.760 --> 1:08:20.920
<v Speaker 1>That is not a good Chuck Schumer. It's it's a

1:08:20.960 --> 1:08:22.519
<v Speaker 1>little bit off. He has a little more rasp in

1:08:22.600 --> 1:08:25.479
<v Speaker 1>his voice. But I'm I'm really scary. I'm really worried

1:08:25.520 --> 1:08:30.040
<v Speaker 1>now because I'm afraid that Muslim I call him fundamentalist,

1:08:30.080 --> 1:08:32.160
<v Speaker 1>everybody else calls him extremists are going to attack us

1:08:32.240 --> 1:08:36.360
<v Speaker 1>now because somebody is well, first of all, he misquoted

1:08:36.439 --> 1:08:40.479
<v Speaker 1>what the Statue of Liberty says. But I don't think that. Uh,

1:08:40.960 --> 1:08:44.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't think you have to worry. Yeah, yeah, right,

1:08:44.600 --> 1:08:47.120
<v Speaker 1>you know what, Listen, I know we're joking about this,

1:08:47.280 --> 1:08:51.200
<v Speaker 1>but this is the perfect example of why we're in

1:08:51.360 --> 1:08:53.560
<v Speaker 1>the mess. That we're in in this country because we

1:08:54.040 --> 1:08:57.360
<v Speaker 1>of these political games. He's talking about Trump as though

1:08:57.439 --> 1:08:59.720
<v Speaker 1>he's been in office for years and years. He's been

1:08:59.760 --> 1:09:03.200
<v Speaker 1>in off us three months. He hasn't done There's nothing

1:09:03.320 --> 1:09:05.960
<v Speaker 1>that has been able to be done where we see

1:09:06.160 --> 1:09:08.160
<v Speaker 1>lasting effects. So I don't know what this guy saw

1:09:08.920 --> 1:09:10.400
<v Speaker 1>to do this, but I'm going to agree with you

1:09:10.520 --> 1:09:13.560
<v Speaker 1>on that. Look, I have seen. I have seen the

1:09:13.640 --> 1:09:16.840
<v Speaker 1>memo that got leaked with respect to what Trump's plans

1:09:16.880 --> 1:09:19.760
<v Speaker 1>are with renegotiating on NAFTA, and I will tell you

1:09:19.880 --> 1:09:22.160
<v Speaker 1>I was a little surprised that it was as soft

1:09:22.760 --> 1:09:25.360
<v Speaker 1>as as it was, and we'll see if that holds up.

1:09:25.800 --> 1:09:28.840
<v Speaker 1>But no, I mean, after three months, I'm not sure

1:09:28.920 --> 1:09:31.080
<v Speaker 1>you can say that he's done nothing on trade because

1:09:31.080 --> 1:09:33.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't think you could expect him to do something

1:09:33.640 --> 1:09:36.800
<v Speaker 1>yet on trade there's been no negotiation to take place.

1:09:36.880 --> 1:09:39.600
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I've you know, I actually when I heard that,

1:09:39.720 --> 1:09:42.799
<v Speaker 1>I wonder why is Senator Schumer stretching to that degree.

1:09:42.840 --> 1:09:45.200
<v Speaker 1>There's enough if he wants to go after the president,

1:09:45.280 --> 1:09:47.640
<v Speaker 1>there's lots there he can pick on it. It's a

1:09:47.680 --> 1:09:49.920
<v Speaker 1>little premature to do it on trade. But I tell

1:09:49.960 --> 1:09:52.880
<v Speaker 1>you what I think you I think, Sean, you're going

1:09:52.920 --> 1:09:55.880
<v Speaker 1>to be disappointed when you see what he has in mind.

1:09:56.560 --> 1:09:59.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm not his anti trade, so I was not particularly

1:09:59.200 --> 1:10:01.160
<v Speaker 1>disappointed with what he has in mind. You guys, I

1:10:01.280 --> 1:10:03.280
<v Speaker 1>know a stronger point of view on that. The other way,

1:10:03.960 --> 1:10:06.360
<v Speaker 1>I think. I think, I think it's gonna be a

1:10:06.520 --> 1:10:10.160
<v Speaker 1>negotiation tactic, and I think these these countries that don't

1:10:10.240 --> 1:10:13.720
<v Speaker 1>practice fair trade with US are are gonna get one

1:10:13.800 --> 1:10:15.280
<v Speaker 1>or two of them will get slapped in the head,

1:10:15.400 --> 1:10:17.479
<v Speaker 1>and then everybody and then everybody else will fall in

1:10:17.560 --> 1:10:20.760
<v Speaker 1>line because they need this work with the United States.

1:10:20.800 --> 1:10:24.080
<v Speaker 1>That's possible, all right, So we have the read option,

1:10:24.600 --> 1:10:26.800
<v Speaker 1>and for the first time in a couple of hundred years,

1:10:26.880 --> 1:10:30.240
<v Speaker 1>we've got a partisan filibuster where Democrats won't allow an

1:10:30.320 --> 1:10:34.960
<v Speaker 1>up or down vote, and you have two former majority

1:10:35.120 --> 1:10:38.519
<v Speaker 1>leaders in the Senate, Bob Dole from Kansas and Trent

1:10:38.640 --> 1:10:41.080
<v Speaker 1>Lott from Mississippi, saying it's time to let it go.

1:10:41.320 --> 1:10:43.439
<v Speaker 1>And the rules have changed because the Senate has changed,

1:10:43.760 --> 1:10:47.400
<v Speaker 1>and the Senate has become a bittest bitter partisan become

1:10:47.439 --> 1:10:50.800
<v Speaker 1>the House pretty much. Yeah, I mean, I actually, but

1:10:50.880 --> 1:10:54.200
<v Speaker 1>here's the thing. Republicans are stupid. Republicans played by different rules.

1:10:54.200 --> 1:10:56.400
<v Speaker 1>If it's Alana kay Game, we know a left winger. Right.

1:10:56.600 --> 1:10:58.679
<v Speaker 1>If it's Ruth bad Againsburg, we know a left winger.

1:10:58.760 --> 1:11:03.080
<v Speaker 1>Sonia Sodom Noah, left winger. Republicans, they go along, they

1:11:03.120 --> 1:11:05.840
<v Speaker 1>allow the vote. Okay, they don't have to. They play along,

1:11:06.280 --> 1:11:09.599
<v Speaker 1>And there's no reciprocity here. You can't tell me there's

1:11:09.680 --> 1:11:14.040
<v Speaker 1>one thing wrong with Neil Gorsuch's background, credentials to sit

1:11:14.120 --> 1:11:16.439
<v Speaker 1>on the Supreme Court. No, No, I mean I may

1:11:16.560 --> 1:11:19.920
<v Speaker 1>disagree with some of his rulings, but that's not you

1:11:20.040 --> 1:11:23.080
<v Speaker 1>know what, when you elect a president that's the Republican

1:11:23.160 --> 1:11:24.920
<v Speaker 1>you know what you're going to get. You're going to

1:11:25.000 --> 1:11:27.560
<v Speaker 1>get a conservative Supreme Court, just right, whether you like

1:11:27.680 --> 1:11:30.080
<v Speaker 1>it or not. The time to fight that battle is

1:11:30.160 --> 1:11:32.640
<v Speaker 1>not now. The time, to a thought, that battle was

1:11:32.640 --> 1:11:35.040
<v Speaker 1>before the election. So I think for the Republicans, the

1:11:35.080 --> 1:11:38.160
<v Speaker 1>best thing is what they're doing. They're using the constitutional option.

1:11:38.520 --> 1:11:41.439
<v Speaker 1>I get rid of culture on every vote. Actually, I

1:11:41.520 --> 1:11:44.000
<v Speaker 1>think you'd be disappointed if you did. I think it's

1:11:44.040 --> 1:11:46.439
<v Speaker 1>a shame when the House or Senate and it now

1:11:46.520 --> 1:11:48.960
<v Speaker 1>means something. I thought it was a shame when Harry

1:11:49.000 --> 1:11:51.320
<v Speaker 1>redid it. I was against that right because to me,

1:11:51.560 --> 1:11:53.640
<v Speaker 1>and I mean I understood his reasoning, just like I

1:11:53.720 --> 1:11:57.400
<v Speaker 1>understand McConnell's reasoning. Now, But you take those kinds of

1:11:57.560 --> 1:12:01.280
<v Speaker 1>issues to the people, you don't destroy the one thing

1:12:01.439 --> 1:12:04.160
<v Speaker 1>that makes the Senate a more deliberative body than the

1:12:04.240 --> 1:12:08.600
<v Speaker 1>House of Representatives. If this continues, it happened today, it

1:12:08.840 --> 1:12:11.400
<v Speaker 1>is what it is. If they continue down this road

1:12:11.760 --> 1:12:14.920
<v Speaker 1>and they do away with the legislative filibuster, well what

1:12:15.080 --> 1:12:19.240
<v Speaker 1>an awful, awful shame. I just think, you know, I'm

1:12:19.280 --> 1:12:22.200
<v Speaker 1>gonna go a little philosophical here, and that we have

1:12:22.520 --> 1:12:26.840
<v Speaker 1>no individual thinkers in politics anymore. You have the Senate,

1:12:26.960 --> 1:12:30.440
<v Speaker 1>you have the House of Representatives, you have the Presidency,

1:12:30.520 --> 1:12:33.040
<v Speaker 1>the Supreme Court, and the only way that they make

1:12:33.120 --> 1:12:36.920
<v Speaker 1>decisions is based on party lines. That's I mean, there's

1:12:36.920 --> 1:12:39.640
<v Speaker 1>no individual thinkers in the Republican Party that say what

1:12:39.760 --> 1:12:42.080
<v Speaker 1>you just said, Sean, that say, hey, listen, we gotta

1:12:42.120 --> 1:12:43.840
<v Speaker 1>stand up and we gotta go forward on this. There,

1:12:43.920 --> 1:12:46.240
<v Speaker 1>you don't see with the what's going on with this

1:12:47.400 --> 1:12:52.960
<v Speaker 1>spygate stuff, the Republicans should be going nuts about this

1:12:53.160 --> 1:12:57.360
<v Speaker 1>brand new congressman that just stepped in to this field

1:12:57.600 --> 1:13:00.600
<v Speaker 1>of a career. Should be going bullets stick saying I

1:13:00.680 --> 1:13:02.960
<v Speaker 1>will not work under an environment where we may be

1:13:03.000 --> 1:13:04.800
<v Speaker 1>spied on it. Because you're not. You're not hearing that

1:13:04.920 --> 1:13:08.000
<v Speaker 1>from anybody. And that's because we don't yet, I mean,

1:13:08.200 --> 1:13:12.519
<v Speaker 1>but it's because their allegiance is to two political private

1:13:12.680 --> 1:13:15.439
<v Speaker 1>organizations and not to the American people, and not to

1:13:16.120 --> 1:13:18.759
<v Speaker 1>this this whole thing, this whole thing that's happening today,

1:13:18.840 --> 1:13:22.240
<v Speaker 1>the nuclear option. But I find so astounding. You don't

1:13:22.320 --> 1:13:24.840
<v Speaker 1>have to be a political science genius to know that

1:13:25.000 --> 1:13:28.040
<v Speaker 1>this is not a good strategy on the part of

1:13:28.080 --> 1:13:31.000
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats. I've been squawking about this on my show

1:13:31.120 --> 1:13:34.560
<v Speaker 1>for weeks. This is not an intelligent strategy. You know what.

1:13:35.040 --> 1:13:37.840
<v Speaker 1>There is what at least a seventy five or twenty

1:13:37.920 --> 1:13:40.320
<v Speaker 1>five percent chance that we're going to get to the

1:13:40.439 --> 1:13:43.560
<v Speaker 1>last year of this president's term, and that's going to

1:13:43.600 --> 1:13:45.920
<v Speaker 1>be when he needs to pick a justice. Right. I

1:13:45.960 --> 1:13:48.559
<v Speaker 1>would have loved to have heard the Republicans explain why

1:13:48.640 --> 1:13:51.320
<v Speaker 1>it's okay to do it in that year when it

1:13:51.479 --> 1:13:54.800
<v Speaker 1>wasn't okay when it was another president. Now because you

1:13:55.000 --> 1:13:59.160
<v Speaker 1>chose to fight over a nominee who is getting approved,

1:13:59.360 --> 1:14:02.479
<v Speaker 1>it was he's clear he's going on the Supreme Court.

1:14:03.439 --> 1:14:06.519
<v Speaker 1>All they're doing is playing to the base. They aren't

1:14:06.560 --> 1:14:10.600
<v Speaker 1>doing their job. Aren't you worried at the admission of

1:14:10.840 --> 1:14:15.559
<v Speaker 1>unmasking the contradiction of of of of what's her name?

1:14:15.880 --> 1:14:21.439
<v Speaker 1>M farcas? No price still on that. By the way,

1:14:21.560 --> 1:14:23.240
<v Speaker 1>did you did you ever get it? A lawyer up,

1:14:23.680 --> 1:14:25.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to answer the question, did you ever

1:14:25.960 --> 1:14:28.280
<v Speaker 1>get it? To come on? Did you? I mean her talking?

1:14:28.400 --> 1:14:30.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean I'm trying. Did she know that I was

1:14:30.400 --> 1:14:36.320
<v Speaker 1>actually trying to help her? I like, she's gonna She's

1:14:36.360 --> 1:14:39.840
<v Speaker 1>in trouble, dude, She's in big trouble. She is being

1:14:40.040 --> 1:14:43.040
<v Speaker 1>very capably represented. So you got Susan Rice out there,

1:14:43.200 --> 1:14:46.120
<v Speaker 1>and she's out there. You know now we've learned from

1:14:46.160 --> 1:14:48.560
<v Speaker 1>Sarah Carter today that in fact, they're looking into the

1:14:48.640 --> 1:14:50.920
<v Speaker 1>personal lines of people. There has nothing to do with

1:14:51.520 --> 1:14:53.760
<v Speaker 1>except you guys. Are you're getting as ahead of the

1:14:53.840 --> 1:14:56.400
<v Speaker 1>story as the other side. Let me tell you why

1:14:56.479 --> 1:14:59.160
<v Speaker 1>you are. You know, as far as anything that we know,

1:14:59.439 --> 1:15:02.519
<v Speaker 1>it isn't hirely possible that there's nothing to the Susan

1:15:02.600 --> 1:15:09.439
<v Speaker 1>Rice story, and there's nothing illegal. It's illegal when you

1:15:09.600 --> 1:15:16.840
<v Speaker 1>leak it. If she leaks something, but she's leaked. It's

1:15:16.920 --> 1:15:20.200
<v Speaker 1>also illegal if you are read into a program and

1:15:20.280 --> 1:15:22.680
<v Speaker 1>then you take that information and then you give it

1:15:22.760 --> 1:15:25.720
<v Speaker 1>to somebody else in the government. Yeah, that we don't

1:15:25.880 --> 1:15:29.559
<v Speaker 1>know that she did. Why did Why did Farcas need

1:15:29.680 --> 1:15:32.519
<v Speaker 1>to know this? See? I don't think she had an idea.

1:15:33.360 --> 1:15:35.160
<v Speaker 1>Well hold on a second, you say, I'm sure talking

1:15:35.160 --> 1:15:37.880
<v Speaker 1>about Rice, but here, Well, you can't talk about Rice

1:15:37.960 --> 1:15:41.480
<v Speaker 1>without talking about her and everybody else because the information

1:15:41.960 --> 1:15:46.560
<v Speaker 1>that Rice unmasked is the same information that Farcas is

1:15:46.640 --> 1:15:50.600
<v Speaker 1>talking about. So in that case, it got disseminated. No.

1:15:50.800 --> 1:15:54.639
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you're you're making you're making a very big

1:15:54.800 --> 1:15:57.280
<v Speaker 1>leap there that there's no may you may get there

1:15:57.360 --> 1:15:59.840
<v Speaker 1>at some point, but we're not there yet. There's me

1:16:00.320 --> 1:16:03.280
<v Speaker 1>to me. We went from two weeks ago, does she's no,

1:16:03.560 --> 1:16:09.720
<v Speaker 1>I know enough thing? Remember Starr right, remember? And then

1:16:09.840 --> 1:16:12.479
<v Speaker 1>then we got to oh yeah, surveillance took place, and

1:16:12.600 --> 1:16:15.479
<v Speaker 1>oh yeah, I did a masking of Trump. And now,

1:16:15.960 --> 1:16:18.000
<v Speaker 1>by the way, Sarah Carter has gotten everything right to

1:16:18.200 --> 1:16:20.240
<v Speaker 1>this point. Now she's saying they're going after the personal

1:16:20.320 --> 1:16:24.720
<v Speaker 1>lives of individuals, which means and proves it was weaponizing

1:16:24.800 --> 1:16:29.040
<v Speaker 1>the intelligence communities. Oh you guys, we'll wrap things up

1:16:29.120 --> 1:16:31.080
<v Speaker 1>get to your calls in the next half hour. News

<v Speaker 1>Round Up, Information Overload, Rick Hunger and Jonathan Gillhim straight ahead,

1:16:37.400 --> 1:16:40.439
<v Speaker 1>bite sized version of the show that you can take

1:16:40.560 --> 1:16:46.160
<v Speaker 1>with you. To sign up today for Hannity headlines, go

1:16:46.360 --> 1:16:49.760
<v Speaker 1>to Hannity dot com. A right as we continue, Rick

1:16:49.840 --> 1:16:52.519
<v Speaker 1>Hunger and Jonathan Gillhim staying with us, News Round Up,

1:16:52.560 --> 1:16:54.840
<v Speaker 1>Information Overload Our all. Right, So what I'm trying to

1:16:54.920 --> 1:16:57.800
<v Speaker 1>understand is why you aren't more upset that we now

1:16:57.960 --> 1:17:00.519
<v Speaker 1>know your friend Evelyn Farkas sent it. She admitted that

1:17:00.640 --> 1:17:03.599
<v Speaker 1>there was surveillance on masking She's talking about, let's get

1:17:03.640 --> 1:17:05.880
<v Speaker 1>it to our friends, our colleagues on the Capitol on

1:17:06.000 --> 1:17:08.479
<v Speaker 1>Capitol Hill. Well, that would sound to me, and I'm

1:17:08.520 --> 1:17:12.040
<v Speaker 1>not an attorney, but that sounds to me like leaking intel.

1:17:12.360 --> 1:17:15.040
<v Speaker 1>That's my problem. I am an attorney, and that's why

1:17:15.120 --> 1:17:18.560
<v Speaker 1>you haven't heard me screaming about President Trump and his

1:17:18.720 --> 1:17:23.439
<v Speaker 1>people collaborating with with somebody from overseas, because I haven't

1:17:23.479 --> 1:17:26.240
<v Speaker 1>seen any evidence to prove that yet. And I haven't

1:17:26.280 --> 1:17:29.519
<v Speaker 1>seen any evidence to prove that Susan Rice did anything wrong.

1:17:29.760 --> 1:17:33.320
<v Speaker 1>When I see evidence on either both or none. What about? What?

1:17:34.520 --> 1:17:37.600
<v Speaker 1>What about what she's admitting to and how she contradicted

1:17:37.640 --> 1:17:39.560
<v Speaker 1>what she said two weeks ago because she didn't. You know,

1:17:39.680 --> 1:17:41.920
<v Speaker 1>that's not fair. What she said two weeks ago was

1:17:42.000 --> 1:17:44.120
<v Speaker 1>not in response to the stay at the beginning of

1:17:44.200 --> 1:17:46.240
<v Speaker 1>her two weeks ago when she says she knows nothing.

1:17:47.960 --> 1:17:52.240
<v Speaker 1>I was surprised to see reports from chairman unis I

1:17:52.280 --> 1:17:54.800
<v Speaker 1>know nothing about this. It's not very useful without the

1:17:54.960 --> 1:17:57.960
<v Speaker 1>question that she's answering. Then all right, but she's talking

1:17:58.000 --> 1:18:00.600
<v Speaker 1>about the very specific issue. Wa sit there and I go,

1:18:00.720 --> 1:18:03.280
<v Speaker 1>I know that. But then she goes on and be

1:18:03.400 --> 1:18:05.400
<v Speaker 1>saying she admit she knew everything about it. But she

1:18:05.479 --> 1:18:07.760
<v Speaker 1>didn't say she knew nothing to this stuff, the very

1:18:07.840 --> 1:18:10.719
<v Speaker 1>thing she saying she knew nothing about. You know the question.

1:18:11.560 --> 1:18:14.160
<v Speaker 1>Let's look in the context of how And I hate

1:18:14.200 --> 1:18:16.479
<v Speaker 1>to say these initials, but CNN has covered this, and

1:18:16.680 --> 1:18:20.080
<v Speaker 1>like John Lemmont for instance, if you know, sometimes when

1:18:20.120 --> 1:18:21.840
<v Speaker 1>the cops roll up on a scene and there's a

1:18:21.920 --> 1:18:24.640
<v Speaker 1>dead body there, there's no evidence and so they have

1:18:24.720 --> 1:18:27.920
<v Speaker 1>to do an investigation. They don't just assume that nothing

1:18:28.080 --> 1:18:31.360
<v Speaker 1>has happened here and that the person just died in Okay, Well,

1:18:32.160 --> 1:18:34.880
<v Speaker 1>according to the mainstream media and a lot of these

1:18:35.320 --> 1:18:37.560
<v Speaker 1>people on the left, we should just let this go.

1:18:37.800 --> 1:18:41.320
<v Speaker 1>And there's no evidence. That's why. That's why when you

1:18:41.439 --> 1:18:42.800
<v Speaker 1>say the things that you say, you have to be

1:18:42.960 --> 1:18:46.960
<v Speaker 1>very careful with that, because there is more circumstantial evidence here.

1:18:47.160 --> 1:18:50.360
<v Speaker 1>When we look at farcas, when we look at Susan Rice,

1:18:50.640 --> 1:18:54.439
<v Speaker 1>you do see that they were moving around information that

1:18:54.920 --> 1:18:58.360
<v Speaker 1>was unmasked by Susan. Wait, let's let's just set a

1:18:58.400 --> 1:19:01.040
<v Speaker 1>few things straight there. Number one, I'm not CNN. I'm

1:19:01.080 --> 1:19:03.920
<v Speaker 1>telling you what I see. I have always been mistrustful

1:19:03.960 --> 1:19:06.760
<v Speaker 1>of circumstantial evidence, and I apply the same to mister

1:19:06.840 --> 1:19:10.480
<v Speaker 1>Trump's situation. Right, show me evidence. I have no objection

1:19:10.600 --> 1:19:14.160
<v Speaker 1>whatsoever to an investigation of that, none whatsoever. You got

1:19:14.240 --> 1:19:17.640
<v Speaker 1>a question, it should be investigated. And if the investigation

1:19:17.960 --> 1:19:20.680
<v Speaker 1>ms turns up evidence that she or anybody in the

1:19:20.760 --> 1:19:24.080
<v Speaker 1>in the previous administration did anything wrong, go get him.

1:19:24.160 --> 1:19:26.800
<v Speaker 1>The problem is the problem is the people who are

1:19:26.840 --> 1:19:29.519
<v Speaker 1>going to be doing the investigations. One don't want to.

1:19:29.840 --> 1:19:32.320
<v Speaker 1>It's half of them are establishment from the GOP and

1:19:32.439 --> 1:19:34.960
<v Speaker 1>they don't like Trump. The other half for Democrats who

1:19:35.040 --> 1:19:39.040
<v Speaker 1>hate Trump. So see, this is why we need body

1:19:39.080 --> 1:19:42.680
<v Speaker 1>responsible for that, and I'm all for an independent investigation.

1:19:42.760 --> 1:19:45.200
<v Speaker 1>That's why I think I think James coming. It's the

1:19:45.320 --> 1:19:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Republicans that won't let that happen. I think James Comen

1:19:47.840 --> 1:19:50.280
<v Speaker 1>should be fired, and I think, a how do you

1:19:50.600 --> 1:19:54.000
<v Speaker 1>how do you fire him? Term you ask him to resign?

1:19:54.080 --> 1:19:55.719
<v Speaker 1>You have you ask me to resign, but you also

1:19:55.800 --> 1:19:58.479
<v Speaker 1>can look and see if he's done malpractice of his job,

1:19:58.560 --> 1:20:01.080
<v Speaker 1>and then you can you can ask Listen, my take

1:20:01.200 --> 1:20:04.000
<v Speaker 1>is very clear, and I think the what we see

1:20:04.120 --> 1:20:07.080
<v Speaker 1>unfolding before our eyes is gonna be much deeper than

1:20:07.160 --> 1:20:10.440
<v Speaker 1>Watergate ever was, and that is we are now weaponized

1:20:10.640 --> 1:20:14.280
<v Speaker 1>and politicized intelligence gathering in the country. That is the

1:20:14.360 --> 1:20:16.559
<v Speaker 1>beginning of a police state. As a liberal, you should

1:20:16.600 --> 1:20:19.120
<v Speaker 1>be on my side about this. I'm on your side

1:20:19.200 --> 1:20:21.280
<v Speaker 1>once I know that it happened, but I just you're

1:20:21.400 --> 1:20:24.320
<v Speaker 1>presuming it happened. I'm not making I am. I'm citing

1:20:24.439 --> 1:20:27.599

<v Speaker 1>just a minute. I want to update you on the story.

1:21:17.000 --> 1:21:21.679
<v Speaker 1>Remember this fourteen year old girl forced into a bathroom stall,

1:21:21.920 --> 1:21:26.320
<v Speaker 1>repeatedly and brutally raped in Rockville High School in Maryland

1:21:26.360 --> 1:21:29.880
<v Speaker 1>by two illegal alien teenagers and those accused, one of

1:21:29.920 --> 1:21:33.680
<v Speaker 1>which had a pending deportation order. We're seventeen, eighteen years old,

1:21:33.760 --> 1:21:37.680
<v Speaker 1>but under the district sanctuary policy, they were placed in

1:21:37.880 --> 1:21:41.560
<v Speaker 1>ninth grade. And a detailed and gruesome account of this

1:21:41.800 --> 1:21:44.800
<v Speaker 1>rape we have talked about in detail, and this local

1:21:45.280 --> 1:21:48.360
<v Speaker 1>national outrage about this. There's a group called that has

1:21:48.400 --> 1:21:52.400
<v Speaker 1>put a petition together called Stand United calling for the

1:21:52.479 --> 1:21:56.880
<v Speaker 1>superintendent Jack Smith to reverse the sanctuary policies there. And

1:21:56.920 --> 1:21:58.360
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to get an update on this and a

1:21:58.439 --> 1:22:02.920
<v Speaker 1>senior campaign organizer for Stand United as Angela morbidos with

1:22:03.040 --> 1:22:06.080
<v Speaker 1>US Angela. How are you gist on him doing well? Well,

1:22:06.120 --> 1:22:09.160
<v Speaker 1>explain to me obviously, did you see that the lawyers

1:22:09.240 --> 1:22:12.360
<v Speaker 1>for these two illegal immigrants are claiming that this was

1:22:12.479 --> 1:22:16.200
<v Speaker 1>consensual sex with the fourteen year old girl? What are

1:22:16.240 --> 1:22:19.160
<v Speaker 1>the laws in Maryland as it relates to statutory rape?

1:22:19.240 --> 1:22:22.120
<v Speaker 1>What are the age consent laws? Well, you know, I'm

1:22:22.240 --> 1:22:24.599
<v Speaker 1>definitely not an expert on those, but I can tell

1:22:24.640 --> 1:22:27.439
<v Speaker 1>you that, you know, there is no none of that's

1:22:27.439 --> 1:22:30.719
<v Speaker 1>supposed to be happening inside a school, let alone during

1:22:30.800 --> 1:22:34.400
<v Speaker 1>school hours, where you have two people who are perpetrating this,

1:22:34.520 --> 1:22:37.679
<v Speaker 1>who dragged her in your bathroom stall. They're seventeen and eighteen,

1:22:38.160 --> 1:22:41.400
<v Speaker 1>she's fourteen. There are so many layers here of how

1:22:41.479 --> 1:22:45.000
<v Speaker 1>this is illegal. Okay, So now what is your petition

1:22:45.120 --> 1:22:48.680
<v Speaker 1>calling for that they stopped being a sanctuary city or so.

1:22:48.840 --> 1:22:52.360
<v Speaker 1>Our petition asks the school superintendent to come up with

1:22:52.439 --> 1:22:55.240
<v Speaker 1>a policy that at least looks into the background of

1:22:55.439 --> 1:22:59.000
<v Speaker 1>new students who are enrolling in the school of Montgomery

1:22:59.080 --> 1:23:02.559
<v Speaker 1>County Public School right now has a policy where anyone

1:23:02.680 --> 1:23:05.559
<v Speaker 1>can show up and be allowed into their public schools,

1:23:06.040 --> 1:23:09.439
<v Speaker 1>no questions asked about their background. In fact that by

1:23:09.479 --> 1:23:13.799
<v Speaker 1>these two suspects were considered freshmen, they had come across

1:23:13.840 --> 1:23:17.679
<v Speaker 1>the border in twenty sixteen, they had no educational records,

1:23:17.960 --> 1:23:21.679
<v Speaker 1>and instead of asking why not, the schools just said, Okay, great,

1:23:21.720 --> 1:23:26.120
<v Speaker 1>I guess you're a freshman. That's pretty unbelievable to me that,

1:23:26.600 --> 1:23:30.200
<v Speaker 1>you know. I just I don't understand the thinking in

1:23:30.280 --> 1:23:32.800
<v Speaker 1>the mindset that you know. You know. This is one

1:23:32.840 --> 1:23:35.720
<v Speaker 1>of my biggest arguments. It's been nobody realizes that we're

1:23:35.720 --> 1:23:38.960
<v Speaker 1>spending billions and billions and billions of dollars a year

1:23:39.439 --> 1:23:44.080
<v Speaker 1>on education, on healthcare, the criminal justice system, and that

1:23:44.320 --> 1:23:48.679
<v Speaker 1>is not even the most devastating impact of illegal immigration.

1:23:48.720 --> 1:23:50.640
<v Speaker 1>Then you have people that are competing for jobs at

1:23:50.720 --> 1:23:53.880
<v Speaker 1>lower wages, so that puts Americans out of work. Then

1:23:53.920 --> 1:23:56.200
<v Speaker 1>you've got those people that commit crimes. I've given the

1:23:56.240 --> 1:24:00.519
<v Speaker 1>statistics when I sat through a briefing down, a security

1:24:00.560 --> 1:24:03.599
<v Speaker 1>briefing down in Texas with then Governor Rick Perry six

1:24:03.720 --> 1:24:06.840
<v Speaker 1>hundred and forty two thousand crimes, including murders and rapes

1:24:07.280 --> 1:24:09.920
<v Speaker 1>against Texans, just in a seven year period of time.

1:24:09.960 --> 1:24:12.800
<v Speaker 1>I was stunned and shocked. And you know, here we

1:24:12.880 --> 1:24:15.759
<v Speaker 1>have an incident where you have people in the country illegally,

1:24:16.160 --> 1:24:19.400
<v Speaker 1>and you have a sanctuary city policy, and then you

1:24:19.479 --> 1:24:21.720
<v Speaker 1>have the eighteen and seventeen year old kids in with

1:24:21.840 --> 1:24:26.160
<v Speaker 1>thirteen fourteen year old kids in school and a rape happens,

1:24:26.200 --> 1:24:28.680
<v Speaker 1>and then they claim it's consensual. It just doesn't make

1:24:28.680 --> 1:24:31.920
<v Speaker 1>any sense to me. This whole story is just so

1:24:32.280 --> 1:24:34.839
<v Speaker 1>sad and so tragic that now you have a fourteen

1:24:34.920 --> 1:24:39.040
<v Speaker 1>year old girl whose life has been changed forever because nobody,

1:24:39.240 --> 1:24:42.120
<v Speaker 1>none of the adults who were supposed to be educating

1:24:42.200 --> 1:24:44.640
<v Speaker 1>her and at least keeping her safe while she's in

1:24:44.760 --> 1:24:47.720
<v Speaker 1>school every day, because none of them thought to ask

1:24:47.960 --> 1:24:51.080
<v Speaker 1>questions of men who were One of the men was

1:24:51.160 --> 1:24:53.840
<v Speaker 1>an adult, the other one seventeen, so just shy at

1:24:53.880 --> 1:24:57.080
<v Speaker 1>the age of majority. No one asks them any questions.

1:24:57.560 --> 1:25:00.360
<v Speaker 1>And when you think about how something like this happened

1:25:00.520 --> 1:25:06.000
<v Speaker 1>and the bureaucracy in place failed this goal at every level, unbelievable.

1:25:06.040 --> 1:25:07.640
<v Speaker 1>All right, well, thank you for the update, and if

1:25:07.640 --> 1:25:09.479

<v Speaker 1>to be a part of the program. Kimberly is in Idaho. Kimberly,

1:25:34.760 --> 1:25:38.200
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to the Sean Hannity Show. Glad you are with us. Hi,

1:25:38.360 --> 1:25:40.719
<v Speaker 1>how are you doing, Sean? I'm good? How are you today?

1:25:41.200 --> 1:25:46.080
<v Speaker 1>I am in shock? What's the matter? I mean, well,

1:25:46.200 --> 1:25:51.760
<v Speaker 1>the thing that I also just realized and was that

1:25:51.920 --> 1:25:54.400
<v Speaker 1>you were part of You were partly survailable along with

1:25:54.680 --> 1:25:57.960
<v Speaker 1>I can't remember the gentleman's first name, but yeah, last

1:25:58.000 --> 1:26:01.479
<v Speaker 1>name was Prince. Yeah, Eric, Prince. Listen. I've read the

1:26:01.520 --> 1:26:03.920
<v Speaker 1>stories I've got. I've been very clear on Twitter. I

1:26:04.080 --> 1:26:08.160
<v Speaker 1>have not been able to confirm, although I have my

1:26:08.360 --> 1:26:11.280
<v Speaker 1>sources looking into it, I have not been able to

1:26:11.360 --> 1:26:15.080
<v Speaker 1>confirm or corroborate that I was surveiled or unmasked. As

1:26:15.439 --> 1:26:17.240
<v Speaker 1>you know all these stories, I mean, I've seen a

1:26:17.320 --> 1:26:19.800
<v Speaker 1>number of them now all over the place. I've not

1:26:19.880 --> 1:26:23.599
<v Speaker 1>been able to independently confirm that, but I am making

1:26:23.640 --> 1:26:26.559
<v Speaker 1>it very clear that if in fact, that did happen

1:26:26.640 --> 1:26:29.800
<v Speaker 1>to me, and I consider it such a violation because look,

1:26:29.840 --> 1:26:31.599
<v Speaker 1>there's no way that I was picked up in any

1:26:31.680 --> 1:26:37.320
<v Speaker 1>incidental legal incidental surveillance, because I don't know. But this

1:26:37.600 --> 1:26:41.400
<v Speaker 1>is a thing that concerns me as an American. We

1:26:41.520 --> 1:26:43.880
<v Speaker 1>did not sign up for this. We did not sign

1:26:43.960 --> 1:26:46.400
<v Speaker 1>up for a police state. No, we didn't. And we've

1:26:46.439 --> 1:26:50.479
<v Speaker 1>had one liar after another in the Oval office. Parted

1:26:50.560 --> 1:26:54.240
<v Speaker 1>with Clinton, then I went to George Bush getting us

1:26:54.320 --> 1:27:01.000
<v Speaker 1>into Iraq under false pretenses. Then it went to then

1:27:01.040 --> 1:27:06.040
<v Speaker 1>I went to Obama, and it's ridiculous, it's out of hand.

1:27:06.680 --> 1:27:12.360
<v Speaker 1>And I read this article that m Hillary's plan for

1:27:12.560 --> 1:27:17.000
<v Speaker 1>you and Barack Obama's plan for you too was that

1:27:17.520 --> 1:27:20.560
<v Speaker 1>if Hillary won that they were going to try to

1:27:20.640 --> 1:27:25.040
<v Speaker 1>get you fired from Fox. I didn't say where did

1:27:25.080 --> 1:27:28.040
<v Speaker 1>you see that? I did not see that. Um, it

1:27:28.240 --> 1:27:30.880
<v Speaker 1>was an article, it was on it was on Facebook

1:27:30.960 --> 1:27:35.439
<v Speaker 1>about how how Obama did not like you, because you're

1:27:36.080 --> 1:27:39.439
<v Speaker 1>you didn't paint him in a flattering light. Listen all

1:27:39.479 --> 1:27:44.800
<v Speaker 1>of that truth. Look, nobody vetted him harder and got

1:27:44.880 --> 1:27:47.599
<v Speaker 1>to the truth of Look, I think I've been proven

1:27:47.640 --> 1:27:50.160
<v Speaker 1>through the prism of history that I was dead on accurate,

1:27:50.720 --> 1:27:53.720
<v Speaker 1>even beyond my imagination. As it relates to Obama, I

1:27:53.840 --> 1:27:56.560
<v Speaker 1>know he hated it. I mean he mentioned me, you know,

1:27:56.680 --> 1:27:59.280
<v Speaker 1>a dozen times, and then was told by somebody to

1:27:59.360 --> 1:28:01.599
<v Speaker 1>stop because as I kept using every time, he did

1:28:01.640 --> 1:28:05.280
<v Speaker 1>it as a promo. And so you know, my only

1:28:05.360 --> 1:28:09.800
<v Speaker 1>answer to him is listen, nothing surprises me. You know,

1:28:09.960 --> 1:28:13.200
<v Speaker 1>you got to remember, remember the secret police stories that

1:28:13.320 --> 1:28:15.840
<v Speaker 1>Dick Morris used to tell about the Clintons, and then

1:28:15.880 --> 1:28:19.800
<v Speaker 1>you've got the irs being used. Now we've got confirmation

1:28:19.960 --> 1:28:24.320
<v Speaker 1>they've weaponized the intelligence community. I mean this blockbuster discovery

1:28:24.439 --> 1:28:26.840
<v Speaker 1>that they were more interested in getting into the private

1:28:26.960 --> 1:28:30.479
<v Speaker 1>lives of individuals and any more than anything else. I'm

1:28:30.560 --> 1:28:32.880
<v Speaker 1>not afraid of whatever they might have done to me,

1:28:33.080 --> 1:28:37.080
<v Speaker 1>but I listen, I will not stop, and I'm I

1:28:37.160 --> 1:28:40.080
<v Speaker 1>would do this just for the principle that no American

1:28:40.520 --> 1:28:42.360
<v Speaker 1>and if it happened, if it ever turned out it

1:28:42.479 --> 1:28:45.599
<v Speaker 1>was me that no American because of their political point

1:28:45.640 --> 1:28:49.720
<v Speaker 1>of view, should be surveiled and unmasked. And so if

1:28:49.760 --> 1:28:51.800
<v Speaker 1>it if I ever get to confirm it, and I

1:28:51.880 --> 1:28:54.680
<v Speaker 1>have people looking, people that like me within the intelligence

1:28:54.720 --> 1:28:57.840
<v Speaker 1>community are looking into it for me. If my sources ever,

1:28:59.120 --> 1:29:01.640
<v Speaker 1>it's ridiculous. And the thing is is I wish that

1:29:01.800 --> 1:29:06.479
<v Speaker 1>Trump wouldn't have signed signed over. Our search histories too

1:29:06.600 --> 1:29:11.600
<v Speaker 1>are to be released. You know, Listen, all of that

1:29:11.880 --> 1:29:15.000
<v Speaker 1>is the beginning of a police state. Everything you're talking

1:29:15.080 --> 1:29:17.400
<v Speaker 1>about is this is it now? If they want to

1:29:17.479 --> 1:29:21.639
<v Speaker 1>embarrass me, intimidate me, silence me, that's not going to happen.

1:29:22.240 --> 1:29:24.559
<v Speaker 1>And I'm willing the time was so glad. I love

1:29:24.680 --> 1:29:27.519
<v Speaker 1>watching your show and I love how how hard hitting

1:29:27.680 --> 1:29:30.280
<v Speaker 1>you are towards these Listen, I make a lot of enemies.

1:29:30.439 --> 1:29:33.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm not surprised, I mean nothing. I have for

1:29:33.400 --> 1:29:37.400
<v Speaker 1>years assumed that my tax returns are gone over with

1:29:37.479 --> 1:29:40.960
<v Speaker 1>a fine tooth comb and percentage wise. Even my own

1:29:41.280 --> 1:29:43.760
<v Speaker 1>accountant says to me, what are you doing? You know

1:29:43.880 --> 1:29:47.120
<v Speaker 1>you really should be taking these deductions. Um, and I'm

1:29:47.320 --> 1:29:49.400
<v Speaker 1>My next question is is it going to likely trigger

1:29:49.439 --> 1:29:52.599
<v Speaker 1>an audit? Yes? Okay, leave it in, just don't don't

1:29:52.640 --> 1:29:56.120
<v Speaker 1>take it because it's not worth it to me to

1:29:56.320 --> 1:30:00.439
<v Speaker 1>be the target. And even with those part actions that

1:30:00.479 --> 1:30:03.439
<v Speaker 1>I've put in place, I still get attacked by them.

1:30:03.920 --> 1:30:06.200
<v Speaker 1>I started dealing with the case right now with the irs,

1:30:06.720 --> 1:30:10.600
<v Speaker 1>and it's ridiculous, and it's absolutely ridiculous what they're what

1:30:10.720 --> 1:30:14.040
<v Speaker 1>they're trying to look at here. But you know, this

1:30:14.240 --> 1:30:16.519
<v Speaker 1>is my this this goes with the territory. A lot

1:30:16.600 --> 1:30:18.439
<v Speaker 1>of good things. I get to meet nice people like you.

1:30:18.560 --> 1:30:20.680
<v Speaker 1>I get to talk to great Americans like you, and

1:30:21.000 --> 1:30:23.600
<v Speaker 1>I am not shy about expressing my political views. I

1:30:23.720 --> 1:30:25.560
<v Speaker 1>just don't know the answer. I can't give a I

1:30:25.720 --> 1:30:29.360
<v Speaker 1>don't know, I can't confirm. I have my sources looking

1:30:29.600 --> 1:30:31.800
<v Speaker 1>and if I get an answer, I promise I will

1:30:31.840 --> 1:30:34.439
<v Speaker 1>be forthcoming. But I have not been able to confirm it.

1:30:34.720 --> 1:30:37.040
<v Speaker 1>And I keep reading the same things that you're reading,

1:30:37.280 --> 1:30:40.439
<v Speaker 1>and I'm not surprised at all to see it to

1:30:40.520 --> 1:30:43.200
<v Speaker 1>be perfectly blunt. Brian is in New York City the

1:30:43.360 --> 1:30:46.680
<v Speaker 1>All New AM seven ten w R The Talk of

1:30:46.800 --> 1:30:50.160
<v Speaker 1>New York, New Jersey, Long Island. How are you, sir, Sean.

1:30:50.400 --> 1:30:52.360
<v Speaker 1>You're doing a great job. I gotta tell you, I

1:30:52.479 --> 1:30:55.400
<v Speaker 1>love your show. Thank you, sir, and Mark Levin are

1:30:55.640 --> 1:30:59.680
<v Speaker 1>than It's great stuff. God bless us. My question is

1:31:00.880 --> 1:31:06.200
<v Speaker 1>Jevin Nunez knew about the unmasking back in January. I understand,

1:31:06.640 --> 1:31:10.519
<v Speaker 1>Why is it that James Comy came before Congress and

1:31:11.080 --> 1:31:15.920
<v Speaker 1>he didn't really suggest that they were investigating this these

1:31:16.000 --> 1:31:19.599
<v Speaker 1>intelligence leagues? Now where is he all this is coming out?

1:31:19.640 --> 1:31:23.200
<v Speaker 1>And Susan Rice, where is James Comy in this whole charade?

1:31:24.160 --> 1:31:27.080
<v Speaker 1>It's a really good question. I mean, it bothers me

1:31:27.400 --> 1:31:31.200
<v Speaker 1>that he acknowledges one type of investigation is going on,

1:31:31.439 --> 1:31:35.720
<v Speaker 1>the Russia investigation. When asked about the felony committed with

1:31:35.800 --> 1:31:39.120
<v Speaker 1>the intelligence leaking, he just has nothing to say about it.

1:31:39.520 --> 1:31:41.920
<v Speaker 1>And his answer is the standard, Well, we don't talk

1:31:41.960 --> 1:31:45.519
<v Speaker 1>about potential or ongoing investigations, And why did you just

1:31:45.640 --> 1:31:49.240
<v Speaker 1>five minutes ago start talking about the quote Russia investigation,

1:31:49.360 --> 1:31:51.720
<v Speaker 1>even though we all know there's no evidence uptil this point.

1:31:51.920 --> 1:31:55.880
<v Speaker 1>So I fear actually that Comy may have been politicized. Now,

1:31:55.960 --> 1:31:59.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm I don't know the guy, and the way he's

1:31:59.360 --> 1:32:05.559
<v Speaker 1>acting is kind of bizarre, unpredictable. I'm not sure. I'm

1:32:05.640 --> 1:32:08.640
<v Speaker 1>not sure why he's doing the things he's doing, and

1:32:08.800 --> 1:32:12.120
<v Speaker 1>it's troublesome to me, especially in light of the seriousness

1:32:12.439 --> 1:32:16.599
<v Speaker 1>in what we know about surveillance of a presidential candidate,

1:32:16.800 --> 1:32:20.280
<v Speaker 1>a president elect is transition team, and now the new

1:32:20.360 --> 1:32:23.120
<v Speaker 1>discovery that they're looking into the personal lives of all

1:32:23.200 --> 1:32:27.160
<v Speaker 1>these people nothing to do with any real national security investigation.

1:32:27.400 --> 1:32:31.240
<v Speaker 1>That means we have weaponized our intelligence community, and that's

1:32:31.280 --> 1:32:34.519
<v Speaker 1>a very, very dangerous position for the United States of

1:32:34.600 --> 1:32:37.880
<v Speaker 1>America to be in. Anyway, Brian, good call, sir, Thank you,

1:32:37.960 --> 1:32:41.720
<v Speaker 1>appreciate it. Let's say hi to Shannon in Florida. Shannon, Hi,

1:32:41.880 --> 1:32:44.280
<v Speaker 1>how are you? And we're glad you called hi? How

1:32:44.360 --> 1:32:46.880
<v Speaker 1>are you? Thank you so much. I've been listening to

1:32:46.920 --> 1:32:50.439
<v Speaker 1>you for a while and I'm telling you, Sean, you

1:32:50.560 --> 1:32:53.519
<v Speaker 1>have a real chance. I'm so telling you. You keep

1:32:53.600 --> 1:32:56.479
<v Speaker 1>screaming and telling us, and I believe you, and I

1:32:56.600 --> 1:32:59.160
<v Speaker 1>want to believe you, but you keep saying how you

1:32:59.280 --> 1:33:02.120
<v Speaker 1>want to keep it everybody accountable and hold everybody, And

1:33:02.600 --> 1:33:05.799
<v Speaker 1>you have a chance. I have to prove you guilty.

1:33:06.320 --> 1:33:09.240
<v Speaker 1>They you don't have to prove it. Nail them to

1:33:09.320 --> 1:33:12.680
<v Speaker 1>the wall, Shawn. You have a chance. If they're surveilling you,

1:33:13.040 --> 1:33:16.599
<v Speaker 1>make them prove that they're not. Well, I listen, I'm

1:33:16.640 --> 1:33:20.760
<v Speaker 1>going to be very judicious, very cautious, but also very

1:33:20.840 --> 1:33:25.000
<v Speaker 1>thorough cautious. Well, but the thing is you But I well,

1:33:25.240 --> 1:33:27.599
<v Speaker 1>because I believe in the rule of law. I mean,

1:33:28.200 --> 1:33:30.880
<v Speaker 1>in other words, just because just because I read something

1:33:31.040 --> 1:33:35.720
<v Speaker 1>doesn't mean I necessarily believe it. Now, somebody somewhere in

1:33:35.800 --> 1:33:39.920
<v Speaker 1>the intelligence community clearly, in my opinion, leaked that this happened.

1:33:40.000 --> 1:33:41.960
<v Speaker 1>That's my take on it. But I've not been able

1:33:42.040 --> 1:33:46.160
<v Speaker 1>to independently corroborate or confirm this, So I'm all I'm

1:33:46.280 --> 1:33:50.680
<v Speaker 1>doing is due diligence. I'm using every insider source I

1:33:50.920 --> 1:33:55.439
<v Speaker 1>have trying to get to the answer, and as of now,

1:33:55.600 --> 1:33:58.719
<v Speaker 1>I can confirm or corroborate anything at all has happened

1:33:58.760 --> 1:34:01.679
<v Speaker 1>that is inappropriate. Can't confirm I've been surveiled. I can't

1:34:01.720 --> 1:34:05.160
<v Speaker 1>confirm I've been unmasked. I don't know. Am I worried

1:34:05.200 --> 1:34:07.240
<v Speaker 1>about a lot of people? Look, I really appreciate a

1:34:07.320 --> 1:34:09.679
<v Speaker 1>lot of people are writing me worried for me because

1:34:09.720 --> 1:34:12.080
<v Speaker 1>they see it as such an invasion of privacy. Yeah,

1:34:12.120 --> 1:34:14.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm not. I'm I'm I'm telling all my

1:34:14.120 --> 1:34:17.400
<v Speaker 1>friends I'm not worried. I don't care. You know there's

1:34:17.520 --> 1:34:19.840
<v Speaker 1>nothing they can do to hurt me, and then there's

1:34:20.000 --> 1:34:22.719
<v Speaker 1>not Look at you. You will discover that I curse

1:34:22.800 --> 1:34:25.040
<v Speaker 1>a lot more than you think I do. Oh no,

1:34:25.160 --> 1:34:27.439
<v Speaker 1>I believe you. But here, think about this. You have

1:34:27.520 --> 1:34:30.760
<v Speaker 1>a team. They make phone calls for you all the time.

1:34:30.840 --> 1:34:32.960
<v Speaker 1>I know they do because you're a very busy person.

1:34:33.400 --> 1:34:35.800
<v Speaker 1>So how do you know your team wasn't surveiled. It's

1:34:35.840 --> 1:34:39.040
<v Speaker 1>not fair to them that you aren't taking up the

1:34:39.120 --> 1:34:42.040
<v Speaker 1>staff and saying, okay, if you're going to do this

1:34:42.200 --> 1:34:44.559
<v Speaker 1>to me, if somebody leaked, by the way, if they

1:34:44.560 --> 1:34:47.599
<v Speaker 1>ever surveilled Linda, I mean it would be it would

1:34:47.640 --> 1:34:49.639
<v Speaker 1>be every word would have to be bleeped. It would

1:34:49.640 --> 1:34:51.720
<v Speaker 1>never get to begin every phone call with hello, the

1:34:51.920 --> 1:34:54.720
<v Speaker 1>NSA and then I continue and then you continue. By

1:34:54.720 --> 1:34:56.120
<v Speaker 1>the way, I do that a lot too. I've been

1:34:56.160 --> 1:34:59.000
<v Speaker 1>doing them for years. But that's okay. You got to

1:34:59.080 --> 1:35:03.040
<v Speaker 1>think about I'm challenging you to put your money where

1:35:03.080 --> 1:35:06.559
<v Speaker 1>your mouth is. You want to hold them accountable. Listen,

1:35:06.640 --> 1:35:09.759
<v Speaker 1>I could promise you this if I ever do confirm

1:35:10.000 --> 1:35:12.000
<v Speaker 1>and I don't know where this is going. I really

1:35:12.280 --> 1:35:14.639
<v Speaker 1>and and to be honest, I'm so focused on my job.

1:35:14.680 --> 1:35:17.080
<v Speaker 1>It's not been top of mind for me. I'm very

1:35:17.120 --> 1:35:20.560
<v Speaker 1>honest here. I've got friends. I've got friends, some of

1:35:20.600 --> 1:35:24.600
<v Speaker 1>the you know them, Joe Degeneva, Uh, Jay Sekulo, I have.

1:35:25.000 --> 1:35:28.000
<v Speaker 1>These guys have already agreed to represent me because that

1:35:28.040 --> 1:35:30.599
<v Speaker 1>would be cause for civil action, and that means I'd

1:35:30.600 --> 1:35:34.760
<v Speaker 1>be able to depose every single person involved in any

1:35:34.840 --> 1:35:38.200
<v Speaker 1>surveillance of me or any unmasking of me. And by

1:35:38.280 --> 1:35:41.439
<v Speaker 1>the way, I promise one thing if it happened, if

1:35:41.479 --> 1:35:44.679
<v Speaker 1>it turns out it's true, I will not stop. Every

1:35:44.800 --> 1:35:47.080
<v Speaker 1>one of them will be deposed under oath, and I

1:35:47.160 --> 1:35:49.960
<v Speaker 1>will I will chase this down to the to the

1:35:50.160 --> 1:35:52.760
<v Speaker 1>I'll squeeze every bit of truth I could get out

1:35:52.800 --> 1:35:53.360
<v Speaker 1>of these people.
