Speaker 1: All right, Leonard Skinner, simple man, and that can only
Speaker 1: mean one thing on this radio program, and that is
Speaker 1: all things self proclaimed simple man. That means all things
Speaker 1: Bill O'Reilly, all things Bill O'Reilly of Bill O'Reilly dot Com,
Speaker 1: mister O'Reilly, sir. Now, I happen to see mister O'Reilly
Speaker 1: in the Free State of Florida, and I did take
Speaker 1: him out for breakfast. I couldn't believe what he ordered though.
Speaker 1: He had three pancakes, French toast, the blueberry muffin, eggs, bacon, sausage, potatoes,
Speaker 1: four eggs. I've never seen anybody like that in my life.
Speaker 1: Because you knew I was gonna pay.
Speaker 2: Do you think anybody believes that?
Speaker 1: No nobody does. But I thought i'd have fun with
Speaker 1: it and make But I did get to see you
Speaker 1: while you were down here, and I did buy you
Speaker 1: a blueberry muffin. That's all you want to breakfast, That's it.
Speaker 2: One muffet. And it wasn't even a big musket.
Speaker 1: It wasn't even a big muffet, No, you it was.
Speaker 1: It was good to see. I haven't seen you in
Speaker 1: a long time, and it's good to see. In the
Speaker 1: Free State of Florida, and very different environment down here
Speaker 1: than where you live in that socialist utopia of New
Speaker 1: York that you're married to, which, for whatever reason I
Speaker 1: don't know, you stay there, but you do. Let me
Speaker 1: ask you about this whole signal issue and national security.
Speaker 1: To me, obviously this was a mistake and it was
Speaker 1: an inadvertent error. It can't happen and well, I don't
Speaker 1: think will happen again. I don't think it was done purposely.
Speaker 1: There's no indication of such. So it's obvious the president
Speaker 1: didn't know. He was shocked by the initial question that
Speaker 1: he was given. And here's my argument back to people,
Speaker 1: And what's frustrating to me is you see the state
Speaker 1: run legacy media mob. You know, breathless hysteria, typical Trump reaction.
Speaker 1: It's all predictable. And the same with the Democrats. And
Speaker 1: here's my argument back, if they really cared about national security,
Speaker 1: if they really cared, they sat by, They sat by quietly,
Speaker 1: and they said nothing when we witnessed Joe Biden and
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris create the largest preventable national security crisis and
Speaker 1: history with their open borders policy, which allowed known terrorists, murderers, rapists,
Speaker 1: cartel members, gang members, and then they all lied about
Speaker 1: it to the American people for four years. Now. It's
Speaker 1: a clear and present danger to our country. And Trump
Speaker 1: is trying to clean up the mess. I don't know
Speaker 1: if you can ever fully clean it up. Just as
Speaker 1: they lied about Joe's cognitive decline. What did Joe Scarborough
Speaker 1: say just before the election, This is the best Joe
Speaker 1: Biden I've ever seen, until you know he was deposed,
Speaker 1: Maybe not the best Joe Biden I've ever seen. So
Speaker 1: we're supposed to believe in they lied about that to
Speaker 1: the American people, clear in present danger. Now we're supposed
Speaker 1: to believe Bill, that these people in the media, and
Speaker 1: that these Democrats actually give a damn about national security.
Speaker 1: They don't.
Speaker 3: Bill.
Speaker 1: This was this what they embraced, systemic institutional fraud and lying.
Speaker 1: And what happened here was a one off, seemingly innocent,
Speaker 1: albeit you know, unacceptable mistake that probably will never happen again.
Speaker 1: And that to me is a dramatic difference. What say you,
Speaker 1: mister O'Reilly?
Speaker 2: Well, I come at it always from how it affects
Speaker 2: the folks, not the political parties. So it was a blender.
Speaker 2: I actually have gained more respect for Mike Waws, the
Speaker 2: National security guy, for admitting it. You don't see that much, uh,
Speaker 2: And he said, yeah, up. I was on my phone
Speaker 2: and I am properly loaded the phone into whatever gizmo
Speaker 2: they have. And the guy got on the line. When
Speaker 2: I heard Walls do that, I said, okay, And I
Speaker 2: think President Trump is correct and not overreacting. If it
Speaker 2: happens again, everybody has to go. But what concerns me,
Speaker 2: and should concern every American listening to us, is that
Speaker 2: if this could happen at this kind of a high
Speaker 2: level meeting. You know, the Rushing and the Chinese are
Speaker 2: all over this kind of encryption on the Internet, and
Speaker 2: we are too when we monitor their communications. Can I
Speaker 2: tell you something that I haven't told anybody else, Hanny.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So I've got a trip schedule to Beijing, and I
Speaker 2: booked the Four Seasons hotel next to the American Embassy.
Speaker 2: Within twelve hours, I get a call from a very
Speaker 2: high ranking intel person who says to me, they know
Speaker 2: you're coming. I go who what he said you can?
Speaker 1: Can? I ask you, why, of all the places you
Speaker 1: can go in the world, why are you going to China?
Speaker 2: I have a reason to go. I can't make it
Speaker 2: public now, but it's an important reason. Now.
Speaker 1: There's nothing corrupt, there's no far violations involved.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, this is all.
Speaker 1: This is just of I would assume vacation, educational.
Speaker 2: Trip yeh, in journalism.
Speaker 1: Okay, fair enough.
Speaker 2: All right, So anyway, then the instructions are given. I
Speaker 2: can't bring a laptop, I can't bring my phone. I
Speaker 2: have to bring burner phones. And all of this is
Speaker 2: because that Chinese and the Russians monitor every single thing
Speaker 2: that any high high profile American does on the Internet.
Speaker 2: I would he taken aimback by it. But that's the
Speaker 2: crux of this story.
Speaker 1: Let me can I give you an update on that,
Speaker 1: because Steve Whitkoff there was an article in the Wall
Speaker 1: Street Journal today claiming that when this whole text exchange
Speaker 1: was happening, he was in Russia. He was with Vladimir Putin,
Speaker 1: he had a four or five hour conversation with him
Speaker 1: as the special envoy for the President, and the article
Speaker 1: suggested that the phone was compromised while he was in Russia.
Speaker 1: And the truth of the matter is is not only
Speaker 1: did he not bring his phone, his phone was off
Speaker 1: and his phone was put in a special protective area
Speaker 1: so he would not only not have access to it,
Speaker 1: but it would be protected from any chance of espionage. Now,
Speaker 1: I've been on three trips like you. I've been to Vietnam,
Speaker 1: in Singapore and Helsinki, and on each of those trips,
Speaker 1: I was told not to bring my phone, or if
Speaker 1: I did bring it, to keep it off the whole time,
Speaker 1: don't even turn it on for a second. And I
Speaker 1: had my rooms swept every day for bugs. And guess what, Bill,
Speaker 1: one day they found the little bug. And it's not
Speaker 1: the type of bug that you're thinking of.
Speaker 2: Look, that's the crux of the story. So Americans hopp
Speaker 2: to understand how intense this is. And I think President
Speaker 2: Trump has gotten a message.
Speaker 1: So here's what bothers me then about our government. Okay,
Speaker 1: now this started under Biden. This conversation is very very important,
Speaker 1: and you know, and the President addressed this when he
Speaker 1: spoke earlier. And I think what's very very important is
Speaker 1: we know during the campaign that we had Iranian hit
Speaker 1: squads in this country. We know that the communist Chinese
Speaker 1: and the Iranians were able to hack into Donald Trump's phone. JD.
Speaker 1: Vance's phone, and everybody on the campaign's phone. We know
Speaker 1: that took place. I know many other people in Trump
Speaker 1: world that had the same thing happened to them. So
Speaker 1: that's been going on now for a long time. And
Speaker 1: the idea that we are have allowed this up to
Speaker 1: this point. Now, maybe there's going to be some good
Speaker 1: that comes out of this, and that is we've got
Speaker 1: to get serious about cybersecurity in this country. Pollmy one,
Speaker 1: shame on me, Pully twice, shame on you. And how
Speaker 1: many more times are we going to be hacked before
Speaker 1: we realize? You know, for example, the CIA gave Ratcliffe
Speaker 1: the signal app when they gave him his government phone. Well,
Speaker 1: the signal app is meaningless to these hackers. They can
Speaker 1: break through that, you know, easily.
Speaker 2: Yep. That's the story. And so I hope and I
Speaker 2: believe that no permanent damage was done. Nobody was killed,
Speaker 2: nobody was compromised. So this is a warning and I
Speaker 2: assume that the Trump administration they have to because if
Speaker 2: it happens again, and then, as I said, people will
Speaker 2: be fired and all help break loose. Now segue over
Speaker 2: to the Democrat Party just briefly, whatever Trump does, they're
Speaker 2: going to oppose. I mean, I think it's horrible that
Speaker 2: Chuck Schumer went out try to save his own butt.
Speaker 2: He can't even promote his own book because he's afraid
Speaker 2: of his own people attacking him at the events. How
Speaker 2: frightening is that he cannot even go and hold an
Speaker 2: event in Atlanta, Georgia promoting his book because he is
Speaker 2: afraid that radical leftists will come in and disrupt the event.
Speaker 2: I mean, just think about that. So instead of being
Speaker 2: angry about the radical left, he's not. He goes on
Speaker 2: televison says, we're going to make Donald Trump the quickest
Speaker 2: lame duck president history. That means we'll oppose everything he does.
Speaker 2: We don't care if it's good for the country. We're
Speaker 2: going to oppose it. That's really a big story. But
Speaker 2: you don't get that big story. You get the small ball.
Speaker 2: Anything to hurt Trump. That's a serious situation. American should
Speaker 2: understand that you're not getting the big picture of what's
Speaker 2: going on in the country. This is not a scan
Speaker 2: what happened here. It's a screw up, a big one,
Speaker 2: but it's not a scandal. People make mistakes. Waltz made
Speaker 2: a mistake. He owned up to it. And I assume
Speaker 2: it will never happen again.
Speaker 1: I assume that you're correct as well. And my guess
Speaker 1: is that I think that there's going to be security
Speaker 1: measures now put in place, quick break right back more
Speaker 1: with all things simple man, Bill O'Reilly, all things O'Reilly
Speaker 1: a pilloreilly dot com. We'll get to your calls coming
Speaker 1: up as well. Eight hundred and nine four one shawn
Speaker 1: straight ahead as we continue. Looks like all the Dems
Speaker 1: want to dodge the dose, but Musk is not having it.
Speaker 1: Waste fraud, abuse in the government, the viper the American people.
Speaker 3: This is the Sean Hannity Show.
Speaker 1: Hey, Sean Hannity here, all right, it's tax season yet
Speaker 1: once again. But what do you do if you have
Speaker 1: missing returns and years gone by? What if you owe
Speaker 1: back taxes? Look for years. You've heard my warnings that
Speaker 1: the IRS is a very aggressive collection agency and collection mode.
Speaker 1: Now you need to call my friends the pros at
Speaker 1: Rush Tax Resolution. It is eight hundred two nine nine
Speaker 1: eight zero seven seven. So many of our listeners have
Speaker 1: called Rush Tax and guess what their tax problems are gone.
Speaker 1: Now you get the relief you deserve, But you need
Speaker 1: to call the professionals. Now before the IRS contacts you first,
Speaker 1: and if you mentioned my name, you can get a
Speaker 1: free IRS transcript investigation. Other firms charge up to fifteen
Speaker 1: hundred bucks. Rush Tax the only company I trust, the
Speaker 1: only one I recommend, and the only one that will
Speaker 1: take your case only if they know that they can
Speaker 1: help you. Period. It's eight hundred two nine nine eighty
Speaker 1: seventy seven. Eight hundred two nine nine eighty seventy seven.
Speaker 1: On the web, it's Rush Tax Resolution dot com. We
Speaker 1: continue now all things simple man, bill O'Reilly, all things O'Reilly,
Speaker 1: abilloreilly dot com. It is unfair when the press writes that,
Speaker 1: for example, Steve Whitkoff had his phone with him when
Speaker 1: it was with Vladimir Putin, and that just is simply
Speaker 1: not true. And I know because I spoke to him
Speaker 1: this morning myself. But you're right, the left is what
Speaker 1: the left is. I think they are at a party
Speaker 1: in disarray. Now. I had this discussion with Patrick bed David.
Speaker 1: He's a very well known podcaster and he was on
Speaker 1: TV the other night and he believes that the radicalism
Speaker 1: in the Democratic Party is the minority part of the party.
Speaker 1: Let me play it for you, because I believe it
Speaker 1: represents the Democratic Party. And my evidence is how they
Speaker 1: all acted in unison at the joint Session. Nobody would
Speaker 1: stand even for others that lost children, or a young
Speaker 1: man that be cancer, or a woman a young wife
Speaker 1: that lost her hero husband and law enforcement, or young
Speaker 1: man that got into West Point who had lost his father.
Speaker 1: But let me play what he said.
Speaker 4: First of all, it's great to be on with you, Shan,
Speaker 4: and I love what Caroline Levitt was saying. Here's what's
Speaker 4: coming down to. They're all competing right now to see
Speaker 4: what the market's going to do. I actually don't mind
Speaker 4: the fact that AOC is out there with Bernie doing
Speaker 4: what they're doing. Their biggest enemy is the Democratic Establishment
Speaker 4: Party is not going to let them have any kind
Speaker 4: of attention. They fear them. They don't want them to
Speaker 4: have any attention. If that was the case, they would
Speaker 4: have let Bernie win many years ago when he was
Speaker 4: going up against Hillary. They don't stand a chance they
Speaker 4: can do what they're doing. And according to zero they
Speaker 4: claim that thirty four thousand attendees after event November.
Speaker 1: So he makes this argument, and I believe that most
Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party is in unison and radicalized. Who
Speaker 1: do you think is right?
Speaker 2: There's a difference between the party apparachiks and the folks.
Speaker 2: A registered Democrat who's working in a union making cars
Speaker 2: is not buying into the Bernie Sanders communist approach in
Speaker 2: my opinion. However, the structure in DC is certainly radical
Speaker 2: left because that's where their money comes from.
Speaker 1: Has it ever been this radical left in your lifetime?
Speaker 1: Because it's not in my lifetime, and you're much older
Speaker 1: than me.
Speaker 2: That's true, but I'm still better looking.
Speaker 1: Definitely, I agree with that.
Speaker 2: In the middle of the Vietnam War, the radical left
Speaker 2: control the Democratic Party. However, when they put their candidates
Speaker 2: up McGovern McCarthy, they got waxed, they got murdered because
Speaker 2: the Democrats voters would not support them. However, the party
Speaker 2: structure were the people that were applauding Jane Fondas sitting
Speaker 2: on the North Vietnamese anti aircraft weapon. So that was
Speaker 2: close to what's happening now. But it only lasted about
Speaker 2: a year to two years, sixty eight to seventy, So
Speaker 2: you're right. I was around, I was in the middle
Speaker 2: of it. I was in college. I saw it firsthand.
Speaker 2: But that would be the only reference to radicalism of today,
Speaker 2: the Vietnam Right in the middle of the Vietnam War.
Speaker 1: I think this party is far to the left of
Speaker 1: what they were. I mean, they're the party now championing
Speaker 1: the rights of men to play women's sports. They put
Speaker 1: the rights of even trend A arragua illegal immigrants over
Speaker 1: the safety of Americans. And this is a party that
Speaker 1: thinks we have a constitutional crisis if we cut out
Speaker 1: you know, hundreds of billions of dollars in waste, fraud
Speaker 1: and abuse on the Green New Deal abroad or DEI
Speaker 1: or wokeism or transgenderism. So I think they've gone hard left.
Speaker 1: Bill O'Reilly, We always appreciate you all things. Bill O'Reilly
Speaker 1: of billoreilly dot com. Thank you, sir for being.
Speaker 2: On us, and thanks for the muffin, Hannity. I enjoyed it.
Speaker 1: It was very expensive, the most expensive muffin I've ever
Speaker 1: paid for in my life. By the way, need to
Speaker 1: change your diets. IM putting so much sugar in you.
Speaker 1: You gotta change. I got you gotta work with me.
Speaker 1: You got to train with me. Next time you're down here,
Speaker 1: we'll bring sense A in and you you work with
Speaker 1: us in a session and then we'll teach you about
Speaker 1: how to eat better.
Speaker 2: Okay, can't wait.
Speaker 1: That is the biggest no I've ever heard in my life.
Speaker 1: All Right, Just moments ago and to break, the President
Speaker 1: began a press conference on tariffs.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: Also, I expect he'll be asked questions about the signal issue.
Speaker 1: Will have full coverage of all of this tonight, nine
Speaker 1: Eastern on Hannity. Let's go to the President in the
Speaker 1: Oval Office.
Speaker 3: I'll be with you today.
Speaker 5: We just celebrated Women's Day at the White House and
Speaker 5: it was fantastic, attended by a lot of great women,
Speaker 5: A lot of great women.
Speaker 3: Oh, women are great.
Speaker 5: So this is the beginning of Liberation Day in America.
Speaker 5: We're going to take back just some of them that
Speaker 5: has been taken from us by people sitting behind this
Speaker 5: desk or another desk that's not quite as nice, but
Speaker 5: they have their choice of seven, as you know. And
Speaker 5: we're going to charge countries for doing business in our
Speaker 5: country and taking our jobs, taking our wealth, taking a
Speaker 5: lot of things that they've been taken over the years.
Speaker 3: They've taken so much out of our country.
Speaker 5: Friend and foe, and frankly, friend has been oftentimes much
Speaker 5: worse than FOE, and this is very modest. What we're
Speaker 5: going to be doing is a twenty five percent tariff
Speaker 5: on all cars that are not made in the United States.
Speaker 3: If they're made in the United States is absolutely not terror.
Speaker 5: We start off with a two and a hared percent base,
Speaker 5: which is what we were at, and we go to
Speaker 5: twenty five percent. And basically, as you know, and as
Speaker 5: you've been seeing not reporting as accurately as it should
Speaker 5: be reported, because it's a massive story, business is coming
Speaker 5: back to the United States so that they don't have
Speaker 5: to pay tariffs. And I think also because of November fifth,
Speaker 5: the election, they're very happy. AI is coming back to
Speaker 5: levels that nobody's ever seen before. It's a new sort
Speaker 5: of a new business, I guess when you think about it.
Speaker 5: But it's plants are going up all over the United States,
Speaker 5: and many of them have already been started. We're getting
Speaker 5: early electricity taken care of, we're getting permits very quickly
Speaker 5: for them, and we're going to make their life very happy.
Speaker 3: They're coming in with tens of billions of dollars.
Speaker 5: Individual plants will cost ten to fifteen to twenty billion dollars.
Speaker 5: We're going to let them build electricity generating plants along
Speaker 5: with their plant, and they can't even believe it. And
Speaker 5: we're going to get a very quick permits, as I've
Speaker 5: done always. I did that in Louisiana with two LNG plants.
Speaker 5: I got one permit in one day after waiting fourteen years,
Speaker 5: and the other one in one week after waiting for
Speaker 5: twelve years. It's very exciting to me. This is the
Speaker 5: automobile industry and this will continue to spare growth like
Speaker 5: you haven't seen. Before I was elected, we were losing
Speaker 5: all of our plants. They were being built in Mexico
Speaker 5: and Canada and other places. Now those plants largely have stopped,
Speaker 5: and they're moving them to our country. In Indiana, the
Speaker 5: great state of Indiana.
Speaker 3: I love Indiana.
Speaker 5: Honda is building one of the biggest plants anywhere and
Speaker 5: they've just started.
Speaker 3: They wouldn't have done it without this.
Speaker 5: In all cases, they wouldn't have done it without what
Speaker 5: we're doing. So we'll effectively be charging a twenty five
Speaker 5: percent tariff. But if you build your car in the
Speaker 5: United States, there's no tariff. And what that means is
Speaker 5: a lot of foreign car companies, a lot of companies
Speaker 5: are going to be in great shape because they've already
Speaker 5: built their plant, but their plants are underutilized, so they'll
Speaker 5: be able to expand them inexpensively and quickly.
Speaker 3: But others will come into our.
Speaker 5: Country and build, and they're already looking for sites. They're
Speaker 5: looking for are mostly sites. They don't want to take
Speaker 5: the old buildings that are empty and falling down. They
Speaker 5: want to build new. And this tremendous action there is
Speaker 5: likewise for other companies and countries, like the chip making process.
Speaker 5: Your chip bill is a disaster done by Biden. All
Speaker 5: it does is give tremendous amounts of billions of dollars
Speaker 5: to chip companies that will do nothing with the money.
Speaker 5: They're not going to use the money here. They're going
Speaker 5: to just keep it. They have plenty of money. The
Speaker 5: one thing they have is they have a lot of money.
Speaker 5: In our case, all we're doing is saying you can't
Speaker 5: come in unless you build here. And the largest chip
Speaker 5: company by far is Manufacture from Taiwan, is building here
Speaker 5: and it will give us almost forty percent of the
Speaker 5: chip market.
Speaker 1: Just with that.
Speaker 5: They're spending almost two hundred billion dollars in the United
Speaker 5: States to build a plant, and they've almost started. They'll
Speaker 5: be doing much of the work in Arizona. So we
Speaker 5: have a lot of exciting things, but to me, this
Speaker 5: is one of the most exciting now outside of once
Speaker 5: specific day, and that's Liberation Day.
Speaker 3: That's the real liberation Day of America. And that's going
Speaker 3: to be.
Speaker 5: In April second, and I look forward to it. We'll
Speaker 5: have a little news conference, we'll talk about it. But
Speaker 5: this is very exciting. So we're signing a executive order
Speaker 5: today that's going to lead to tremendous growth in the
Speaker 5: automobile industry. As you know, the electric mandate that we
Speaker 5: did allows you to buy a car now electric or
Speaker 5: gasoline powered or.
Speaker 3: Hybrid, can buy any car you want.
Speaker 5: We had it so that within a short period of
Speaker 5: time you had to buy all electric, and the country
Speaker 5: could never get they could never provide the.
Speaker 1: Money necessary to build right, not only because of the
Speaker 1: constraints of times. Let me fast forward to this. The
Speaker 1: President stays on the issue of tariffs for quite a bit,
Speaker 1: but he basically just summarizes what he just said, the
Speaker 1: twenty five percent teriff on car is not built in
Speaker 1: America's go to the Q and A part with the
Speaker 1: legacy media mob.
Speaker 5: It's a response to Republican lawmakers who have said today
Speaker 5: that your administration should take more accountability and knock down
Speaker 5: play what's happened with the signal that we've seen these
Speaker 5: messages today. Well, I don't know about downplaying the press upplays,
Speaker 5: and I think it's all a witch hunt, that's all.
Speaker 3: I think it's a witch hunt. I wasn't involved with it.
Speaker 5: I wasn't there, but I can tell you the result
Speaker 5: is unbelievable because the Jutis are looking to do something.
Speaker 3: They want to know how do we stop? How do
Speaker 3: we stop? Can we have peace?
Speaker 5: The Houtis want piece because they're getting the hell knocked
Speaker 5: out of them. It's been very, very strong. The Houtis
Speaker 5: are dying for peace. They don't want this and they're bad. Look,
Speaker 5: they were knocking chips out of the ocean. You know
Speaker 5: we had in the Suez Canal. They only have about
Speaker 5: twenty percent of the ships going through. They have to
Speaker 5: go through a different way, which takes weeks of travel
Speaker 5: and that really affects commerce. But the Hoodies have been
Speaker 5: hit hard and they want to negotiate peace.
Speaker 3: But I don't think they shared say it. You still
Speaker 3: believe nothing classified was shared. Well, that's what I've heard.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 5: I'm not sure you ought to ask the various people involved.
Speaker 5: I really don't know.
Speaker 3: I can only tell you this.
Speaker 5: You know, you don't want to talk about it. The
Speaker 5: hooties have been horrible to the world. What they've done
Speaker 5: killed a lot of people and knocked down a lot
Speaker 5: of ships and planes and anything else. You know, it's
Speaker 5: not just the ships, and they have been hit that
Speaker 5: they have been hit harder than they've ever been hit.
Speaker 5: And they want us to stop so badly, and they've
Speaker 5: got to stop.
Speaker 3: They've got to say no Moss. But I can only.
Speaker 5: Say that the attacks, it's you know, it's attacks every day,
Speaker 5: every night.
Speaker 3: It's not just the one you're talking about one.
Speaker 5: The attacks have been very successful, even beyond our wildest expectations.
Speaker 5: We've we've hit it very hard, very successfully, and we're
Speaker 5: going to do it for.
Speaker 3: A long time. We're going to keep it going for
Speaker 3: a long time.
Speaker 5: Center Abordians and asked for Center Republicans have asked so
Speaker 5: that they have formally asked the administration for an Inspector General.
Speaker 3: Report on the signal issue. Will you agree to that.
Speaker 3: It doesn't bother me.
Speaker 5: I don't know, you know, I don't want to find
Speaker 5: if there's any mistake or if a signal doesn't work.
Speaker 5: It could be the signal is not very good. You know,
Speaker 5: it's a company. Maybe it's not very good. I think
Speaker 5: we'd rather know about it now. There was no harm
Speaker 5: done because the attack was unbelievably successful that night, and
Speaker 5: it has been unbelievably successful every single night for the
Speaker 5: last four or five nights.
Speaker 3: And that's the thing that you should be talking about.
Speaker 5: This is something that should have been done by sleepy
Speaker 5: Joe Biden, but he was asleep at the wheel.
Speaker 3: Other than when it came to stealing money.
Speaker 5: Of course, Joe Biden should have done this attack on Yemen,
Speaker 5: which is basically a certain group within Yemen, the Hutis,
Speaker 5: And this should have been done by Joe Biden, and
Speaker 5: it wasn't, and that's caused this world a lot of
Speaker 5: damage and a lot of problems. He's responsible, but he's
Speaker 5: also overseeing the investigation to find out what went wrong.
Speaker 3: Maybe who's responsible for well says that he responsible.
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, Mike Wells, I guess he said he claimed responsibility.
Speaker 3: I would imagine had nothing to do with anyone else.
Speaker 3: It was Mike. I guess I don't know. I always
Speaker 3: thought it was Mike h.
Speaker 5: But again, the attacks were unbelievably successful, and that's ultimately
Speaker 5: what you should be talking about.
Speaker 3: I think Mike Mike did. He took responsibility for him
Speaker 3: his positions. It considered his position.
Speaker 5: Heck, Seth is doing a great job. He had nothing
Speaker 5: to do with this, And how do you bring heg
Speaker 5: Seth into it. He had nothing to do. Look, look,
Speaker 5: it's all a witch hunt here. We are talking about
Speaker 5: some of the greatest business deals ever made. The greatest
Speaker 5: companies in the world are moving into the United States.
Speaker 5: And you want to ask about whether or not signal works.
Speaker 5: I don't know that signal works. I think signal could
Speaker 5: be defective, to be honest with you, and I think
Speaker 5: that's what we have to because you use signal, and
Speaker 5: we use signal, and everybody uses signal. But it could
Speaker 5: be a defective platform. And we're gonna have to find that.
Speaker 3: You've been rooted out the soldiers in Lithuania. No heaven.
Speaker 4: Sir, with the big three auto makers about these tariffs close.
Speaker 5: Thereas it depends on whether or not they have factories here.
Speaker 5: I can tell you if if they have factories here,
Speaker 5: they are thrilled. If you don't have factories here, they're
Speaker 5: gonna have to get going and build them because otherwise
Speaker 5: they have to pay tariffs.
Speaker 3: Very simple.
Speaker 5: And most of those have pretty big factories here, like
Speaker 5: General Motors has big factories here.
Speaker 3: They're going to move their parts divisions back to.
Speaker 5: The United States because some of them were made in
Speaker 5: Canada and some of them were made in Mexico and
Speaker 5: other places.
Speaker 3: And they'll be moving their parts division.
Speaker 5: Back to the United States in factories where they may
Speaker 5: be at sixty percent capacity, so they don't even really
Speaker 5: have to build too much of a factory. But you know,
Speaker 5: generally speaking, if they have factories here, plants here where
Speaker 5: they make their cars and equipment, but they make their
Speaker 5: cars here, they are thrilled.
Speaker 3: Same thing with the steel industry.
Speaker 5: Steel industry is now paying a twenty five percent tariff
Speaker 5: as you I put it on last week.
Speaker 3: And the business is roaring in the United States.
Speaker 5: And we can't because the military, we can't lose the
Speaker 5: steel industry. If I didn't put the initial tariffs on
Speaker 5: steel in my first term, you wouldn't be able to
Speaker 5: have a military because we wouldn't have every steel company.
Speaker 5: Every steel company would be bankrupt in the United States
Speaker 5: and every plant would be closed. But now they're booming
Speaker 5: and putting this tariff on, this additional teriff of steel
Speaker 5: and aluminum.
Speaker 3: It's making them thrive. And it's already happened. Definitely.
Speaker 4: For the TikTok sale, will you extend the deadline you
Speaker 4: don't have a DLD support.
Speaker 3: Or well, we will have a form of a deal.
Speaker 5: TikTok is very popular, very successful, very good. We're going
Speaker 5: to have a form of a deal. But if it's
Speaker 5: not finished, it's not a big deal. We'll just extend it.
Speaker 5: I have the right to have the deal and to
Speaker 5: extend it if I want, so we'll see whether or
Speaker 5: not we have a deal. We have a lot of
Speaker 5: interest in TikTok.
Speaker 3: Is there a way for a.
Speaker 4: US company to operate it and buy dance to still
Speaker 4: have to share the algorithm, Well.
Speaker 3: It'll be.
Speaker 5: There are numerous ways you can buy TikTok, and we
Speaker 5: will find the one that's best for the country. For
Speaker 5: our country, I'm worried about our country more than anything
Speaker 5: else with respect to TikTok and a China is going
Speaker 5: to have to play a role in that, possibly in
Speaker 5: the form of an approval maybe, and I think they'll
Speaker 5: do that. Maybe I'll give them a little reduction in
Speaker 5: tariffs or something to get it done. You know, because
Speaker 5: every point in tariff is worth more money than TikTok.
Speaker 5: If you think every point tariff is a much bigger world,
Speaker 5: and TikTok is big, but every point in tariffs is.
Speaker 3: Worth more than TikTok.
Speaker 5: So in order to get China to maybe I'd give
Speaker 5: him a reduction in tariffs as an example.
Speaker 3: Sounds like it sounds like something I do.
Speaker 5: Good for who well he makes you is a fantastic tesla.
Speaker 3: Will tarif's be good? I think they may. It could
Speaker 3: be a neutral, or they may be good.
Speaker 5: He has a big plant in Texas, he has a
Speaker 5: big plant in California, and anybody that has plants in
Speaker 5: the United States, it's going to be good for my opinions.
Speaker 4: From an education control to the states, how would you
Speaker 4: handle it at a state like California?
Speaker 3: Work put in place education.
Speaker 5: You know, I haven't seen a mask in so long.
Speaker 5: You're wearing a mask, so nice of you. I haven't
Speaker 5: seen anybody wearing a mask in a long time.
Speaker 3: It's good. You feel more comfortable, right, good, that's good.
Speaker 3: So go ahead. You said education control to the states.
Speaker 4: How would you handle it this state like California were
Speaker 4: to put place education policies you disagree.
Speaker 5: With, Well, I think that California is going to be
Speaker 5: tougher because they are. They're doing badly on everything they do.
Speaker 5: You know, they everything they touch turns bad. So a
Speaker 5: place like California would be tougher for education. But what
Speaker 5: I would see with California is you'd have a Los
Speaker 5: Angeles department, and you'd have Riverside, you'd have you know,
Speaker 5: you'd go to various places, and I think you'd have
Speaker 5: some great areas in California and you'd have some Like
Speaker 5: everything else, it doesn't work so well, but ultimately I
Speaker 5: think it would be very successful. I think in New
Speaker 5: York as an example, you'd go to Long Island, west Chester.
Speaker 5: You may have Nassau County, Queen's got you break it
Speaker 5: up in certain ways, so they'd have maybe five departments,
Speaker 5: you know, because of the size, that have five departments
Speaker 5: instead of one.
Speaker 3: A state like Iowa you'd have one, and I mean
Speaker 3: they're just chopping at the bit to get going.
Speaker 5: See, so many states are chopping at the bit to
Speaker 5: get education. And it's going to happen fast to get
Speaker 5: the education.
Speaker 3: SAP.
Speaker 1: All right, that's President Trump at the White House taking
Speaker 1: questions from the media and a wide variety of topics.
Speaker 1: The President starting out with the issue of tariffs. Any
Speaker 1: company that does not build their cars in America, they'll
Speaker 1: have a twenty five percent tariff, which, by the way,
Speaker 1: the European Union other countries put on us just in
Speaker 1: case you're interested in fundamental fairness. A lot of our
Speaker 1: allied countries don't want free and fair trade. Dealing with
Speaker 1: the issue of the signal situation, which by the way,
Speaker 1: was obviously a mistake, not the systemic, institutionalized lying and
Speaker 1: corruption and lack of national security on our borders, or
Speaker 1: Joe's cognitive state. Nine Eastern State, DVR Hannityfoxnews, Hannity dot
