Speaker 1: Happy Monday. Oh, I got a story for you parents
Speaker 1: about kids and Santa, and it is going to make
Speaker 1: your blood boil. You can't believe, by the way this
Speaker 1: was done to five and six year olds, by the
Speaker 1: way Saturday Night Live. They want. All they want for
Speaker 1: Christmas is motor to lock up Trump. The only other
Speaker 1: option is a coup, of course, from them. We'll get
Speaker 1: into all of that, Al Sharton, It is the funniest
Speaker 1: story I've ever seen. He pays himself a million and
Speaker 1: a half dollars from his own National Action network. What
Speaker 1: for for the rights to his life story? This is
Speaker 1: his charity. He paid himself from his own charity five
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty one grand according to his latest tax filing. Fire.
Speaker 1: But they only get it for a ten year period
Speaker 1: of time. I guess he'll sell it again for a
Speaker 1: million dollars next time to the same people to coach
Speaker 1: Seller's life store. I don't know why that struck me
Speaker 1: is so funny today it did. Glad you're with us. Oh,
Speaker 1: we have a lot of caravan news, massive success by
Speaker 1: the president China tariffs. I've told every conservative friend of
Speaker 1: mine that was most worried, legitimately so because about some
Speaker 1: type of trade war that the president was going to
Speaker 1: engage in or tariffs that he was going to place
Speaker 1: on different countries. I said, Nope, it's not him. It's
Speaker 1: a negotiating tactic. If you don't make them believe that
Speaker 1: you're gonna do it, they're never gonna move and they're
Speaker 1: never gonna offer. We have had horrible one sided deals
Speaker 1: with everybody, that includes NATO, seventy two cents of every
Speaker 1: dollar that includes our even our European allies and friends.
Speaker 1: Supposedly they have one sided trade deals Mexico, NAFTA, Canada,
Speaker 1: now China. So we're making huge progress, which we'll get
Speaker 1: to also today we have a lot of deep state
Speaker 1: news we're gonna get into in the course of the program.
Speaker 1: We'll make it all happen. Um, what do you say
Speaker 1: about a guy like President George Herbert Walker Bush, except
Speaker 1: he just embodies it's all part of I mean, this
Speaker 1: is my dad's generation. My father bought four years in
Speaker 1: the Pacific in World War Two, and he, by the way,
Speaker 1: I didn't know, he's the longest. He lived longer than
Speaker 1: any president in American history, only two families have had
Speaker 1: a father and son become president, and he obviously being
Speaker 1: one of them. And you think of his years as
Speaker 1: Ambassador to China, director of the CIA, eight years the
Speaker 1: Reagan got me in love with politics. Reagan convinced me.
Speaker 1: That's when I became a conservative. And here we are
Speaker 1: thirty years later in radio, in my twenty third year
Speaker 1: in Fox. It's amazing how many people don't get how
Speaker 1: consistent I have been in terms of my conservative ideas
Speaker 1: and philosophy. Of course, you can't be intellectually honest and
Speaker 1: not at times change opinions on certain issues, which I
Speaker 1: have evolved, and over time I can set myself a
Speaker 1: little more civil libertarian certainly than I ever was before.
Speaker 1: I think the main things government ought to do ought
Speaker 1: to be limited in nature. I've always believed that. Reagan
Speaker 1: always said, you know, government is the problem. I've always
Speaker 1: believed in lower taxes, free markets, liberty and freedom. I've
Speaker 1: always believed that every individual is brought on this earth
Speaker 1: is a child of God. Every single person has natural
Speaker 1: talent and ability. That's where the word education comes from. Then,
Speaker 1: that is, you know, to bring forth from within. That's
Speaker 1: because God put it there. That's I've always believed in
Speaker 1: that we're endowed by our creator, our founding document. I
Speaker 1: believe that our great constitution, but government becomes was more intrusive,
Speaker 1: more intrusive, and and Reagan taught me something. I studied
Speaker 1: the eight years he was president. I was on radio
Speaker 1: just as he was. You know, I guess I started
Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty seven, and I remember I was like,
Speaker 1: you know, here's a guy that gave us tax cuts
Speaker 1: and created the single longest period of peacetime economic growth
Speaker 1: in American history. He left the presidency having created over
Speaker 1: twenty million new jobs. He literally and this happened actually
Speaker 1: in the Bush years. You know, but as Reagan has said,
Speaker 1: tear down this wall. And George Herbert Walker Bush presided
Speaker 1: over that. And you know, I look at the life
Speaker 1: of military service, I look at the life of as
Speaker 1: a businessman. I was watching forty three George W. Bush
Speaker 1: talking about his dad, and you know, he could have
Speaker 1: joined a hedge fund. After college. He went to Yale.
Speaker 1: He was a great athlete, and no, he wanted to
Speaker 1: be in Adessa, Texas, and you know, the living condition
Speaker 1: weren't particularly great. He said. His mom would describe their
Speaker 1: living next to prostitutes. Apparently, I'd never knew that story before. Anyway,
Speaker 1: on a personal level, I've just gotten to know him,
Speaker 1: and I know the family, and I've known him for
Speaker 1: many years, and just they represent everything that is good
Speaker 1: and decent. And this man spent a life serving his country.
Speaker 1: He had in every capacity. His entire adult life was
Speaker 1: about service for others, and he did it with a passion.
Speaker 1: It was only a couple of years ago, and you know,
Speaker 1: he's still jumping out of airplanes. And you know, at
Speaker 1: the end of the day, for any of us, when
Speaker 1: that moment comes and we've got to meet our creator
Speaker 1: and cross over to that other side. I think all
Speaker 1: of us want to have lived life and the world
Speaker 1: is a better, stronger place. The United States is better
Speaker 1: and stronger because of George Herbert Walker Bush, especially in
Speaker 1: his years as Vice president and president. It wasn't without controversy,
Speaker 1: it wasn't without his own tough moments in life. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's really what creates character and people, isn't it. When
Speaker 1: we get tested and then those roots inside us, we
Speaker 1: need to go deeper and deeper, don't we Otherwise we're
Speaker 1: just going to get blown away in the in the
Speaker 1: wind when the rains come and it's it's not good. Um.
Speaker 1: I did an interview with both forty one and forty three.
Speaker 1: I'm going to air parts of this tonight on Hannity.
Speaker 1: And there was a love between forty three and forty one.
Speaker 1: It was as unbelievable. I went down when the President Bush,
Speaker 1: George W. Bush, you know, invited me to his museum
Speaker 1: down there, and I went down on SMU campus. I
Speaker 1: forgot was his father's presidential museum. I forget where, I
Speaker 1: don't remember, but anyway, his dad and his mom were there.
Speaker 1: Mom had recently passed away, as you all know, Barbara Bush.
Speaker 1: And so I'm doing an interview just with forty three
Speaker 1: and forty one was in a wheelchair. And so anyway,
Speaker 1: we're about to do the interview and he says, no, no,
Speaker 1: I want to watch, and he came. He literally sat
Speaker 1: and watched the interview with his son. Couldn't be more proud.
Speaker 1: And I won't give it away, but what when I
Speaker 1: interviewed them together, you know, and George Bush said this
Speaker 1: in an interview that I saw last night or over
Speaker 1: the weekend when I was watching maybe it was sixty
Speaker 1: minutes last night, and he said, you know, told the
Speaker 1: story when he first went into the Oval office and
Speaker 1: his dad called him mister President, and how his father
Speaker 1: really let him be his own man, and he said,
Speaker 1: just love him and be a dad. It's just very touching,
Speaker 1: and it just you. You just embodies greatness. Goodness. You know,
Speaker 1: so many Americans never become famous. And by the way,
Speaker 1: if you want it, you can. You may not pee
Speaker 1: Holt's cut out to be. Let me just say that.
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, you know, whatever
Speaker 1: you do for a living, whatever talent you have, we
Speaker 1: all have to serve other people in some capacity. You know,
Speaker 1: I can't imagine anything worse. I've said this many many times.
Speaker 1: Then what it must be like if you don't have
Speaker 1: a purpose and a job in life and you're not
Speaker 1: giving back and I don't care what it is. Listen,
Speaker 1: if I know we've always scorned almost some people have
Speaker 1: scorned on the left. Stay at home moms. Let me
Speaker 1: tell you. Stay at home being a mom bold time.
Speaker 1: That's a full time job, loving your children, raising them right,
Speaker 1: feeding them well, giving them great life experiences. You're serving
Speaker 1: a child. I don't think there's anything greater than that.
Speaker 1: You're influencing who that person. You're shaping that person, helping
Speaker 1: shape that person into becoming the person they were created
Speaker 1: to be. I don't care if you're at McDonald's. You're
Speaker 1: serving hungry people. So that's a valuable service. You know,
Speaker 1: if you're building homes, if you're doing plumbing, if you're
Speaker 1: doing electricity, if you're doing legal work, if you're a
Speaker 1: doctor and you save lives every day, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: And I've always felt that people that do their jobs publicly,
Speaker 1: you know, get too much adulation. It's just true. But
Speaker 1: it's the people that get up every single day and
Speaker 1: shovel coffee down their throat, dress their kids, you know,
Speaker 1: pack them a lunch, send them off to school, go
Speaker 1: put in their twelve hours, come home tired, do homework,
Speaker 1: make dinner, you know, read to the kids, fall asleep,
Speaker 1: get up and grind it out again the next day.
Speaker 1: But all of those people, collectively in a free society,
Speaker 1: make this a better world than a better place, and
Speaker 1: then you have great leaders. I maybe we can put
Speaker 1: athletes on a pedestal, and look, there's only so many
Speaker 1: people that can throw a ball over a tiny plate
Speaker 1: at one hundred miles an hour and strike out people.
Speaker 1: There's only so many guys that can hit that hundred
Speaker 1: mile an hour basketball you know, long enough that it's
Speaker 1: a home run, or you know, playing hockey or basketball
Speaker 1: or tennis or golf or whatever it happens to be.
Speaker 1: And so we marvel at people that are at the
Speaker 1: top level of whatever their profession happens to be. But
Speaker 1: whatever you do matters too. And so his job was
Speaker 1: more public than what most people have. But it's not
Speaker 1: any even if you're the president, it's not any more
Speaker 1: important for this country to be great. It's people have
Speaker 1: to be great. And there are so many people like
Speaker 1: George Herbert Walker Bush who did so much good in
Speaker 1: his life with a decency and a quietness that is
Speaker 1: his nature. And by the way, you know, it's amazing
Speaker 1: to me that the number one complain about Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: It's not about even people that say they're conservative. I'm
Speaker 1: looking at them, Okay. So he's a disruptor. He fights
Speaker 1: hard on every issue, even if it's better politics maybe
Speaker 1: not to fight hard, but he's fighting hard with China,
Speaker 1: North Korea, the Iranians. He doesn't care. He made a
Speaker 1: promise to Israel about moving moving the Embassy to Jerusalem,
Speaker 1: keeps it, He keeps his promises on regulation, on tax cuts,
Speaker 1: on judges fighting every day for the Wall, and people
Speaker 1: that were conservative cuts, taxes, originalist justices, energy independence, and
Speaker 1: they can't find a good thing to say about the guy.
Speaker 1: They just don't like a style. Well, there's a time
Speaker 1: and a place, in my opinion, for a George Herbert
Speaker 1: Walker Bush and a Ronald Reagan, and there's a time
Speaker 1: for a disruptor, somebody that's gonna fight hard, break things
Speaker 1: and get it done. Because so much of Washington has
Speaker 1: been broken, corrupt and horrible. But as long as you
Speaker 1: have the intention and you apply the principles that work,
Speaker 1: and people ben a fit. You know, I think people
Speaker 1: feign more outrage than they do. Here's the sad part
Speaker 1: of the whole coverage I've been watching this weekend is,
Speaker 1: you know, literally you have the coverage where people that
Speaker 1: were horrible. I saw this with John McCain too, People
Speaker 1: that refer to John McCain as a racist, you know
Speaker 1: when he's running for president, a horrible treatment of Mitt Romney,
Speaker 1: binders of women's resumes, bludgeoned him. But now they like
Speaker 1: him only because he criticizes Trump. You know, the horrible
Speaker 1: thing said about Ronald Reagan, the horrible thing said about McCain,
Speaker 1: the horrible thing said about George Herbert Walker Bush. Corrupt,
Speaker 1: You ought to be in jail, ran contra, blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: Oh he's the nicest man. But they basically doing is
Speaker 1: using the death of George Herbert Walker Bush now to
Speaker 1: bludgeon President Trump. But the same people were bludgeting or
Speaker 1: people like them were bludgeoning George Herbert Walker Bush. And
Speaker 1: just like I supported John McCain because I thought even
Speaker 1: be a better president than Barack Obama, I was right,
Speaker 1: by the way, And you know all these people now
Speaker 1: that said horrible things in life, now you know, oh,
Speaker 1: the greatest man ever. Reagan was the greatest man. Bush
Speaker 1: was the greatest. And I can't stand that phoniness. That
Speaker 1: more than anything drives me nuts. We pray for his
Speaker 1: family today, and they're a very close family. This is
Speaker 1: not easy, and especially it wasn't long ago that President
Speaker 1: Bush's father, mother had had passed away, Barbara Bush. And
Speaker 1: I know the President has sent Air Force one to
Speaker 1: Houston to pick up the forty first president and his family.
Speaker 1: And there's gonna be a lot of ceremonies. We'll be
Speaker 1: carrying it all this week for you. God speed, George
Speaker 1: Herbert Walker Bush. You're a good man. Thank you for
Speaker 1: a lifetime of greatness and service to the country you loved. Hey, guys,

Speaker 1: Even the ape didn't get the memo. It's now okay
Speaker 1: for the Democratic media, and it's okay now to say
Speaker 1: nice things about George Herbert Walker Bush. AP had to
Speaker 1: delete a tweet about the death of the former president.
Speaker 1: It was a huge backlash on this, and it said,
Speaker 1: we've deleted a tweet and revised a story on the
Speaker 1: death of President George Herbert Walker Bush because the tweet
Speaker 1: and the opening story referenced his ninety two electoral defeat
Speaker 1: and they didn't even talk about his World War Two service.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just so typical. You know. It's sad.
Speaker 1: You know, John McCain for at least this as an example.
Speaker 1: John McCain and I had our battles over the years.
Speaker 1: We really did when it mattered, and I thought he
Speaker 1: was a better person for the job, and you got
Speaker 1: a choice coming down to two people, and I knew
Speaker 1: Obama was a rigid radical ideologue that was never gonna
Speaker 1: ever change and his policies would be bad for the country.
Speaker 1: And by the way, all my predictions were born out,
Speaker 1: and I supported John McCain, and I know he said,
Speaker 1: you know the hell are these people on talk radio?
Speaker 1: How are these people on cable news? And I'm like,
Speaker 1: clearly you didn't hate me back in the days when
Speaker 1: you were running for president. But it's fine. It's you know,
Speaker 1: everyone trying to now use the death of President Bush
Speaker 1: to attack President Trump in the media. This nbcas despite
Speaker 1: the resentments between these two families, all right, you want
Speaker 1: to and then the stylistic differences. I can play some
Speaker 1: of this, we have them, will play m later in
Speaker 1: the program. And I'm just thinking, you know, I watched
Speaker 1: the treatment of Ronald Reagan in death. These people were
Speaker 1: so gracious in life. They were horrific when it actually mattered,
Speaker 1: you know, they never saw the wisdom of what Ronald
Speaker 1: Reagan sought to accomplish and what he did for the
Speaker 1: economy and how many jobs he created. And you know,
Speaker 1: bravely challenging garbage, mister Gorber, tear down this wall, or
Speaker 1: are you know the things that were said in the
Speaker 1: allegations made in Iran Contra, etcetera, etcetera. You know, it
Speaker 1: matters to me more how do you treat people in life?
Speaker 1: Not the things you're gonna say in debt. To me,
Speaker 1: it's just phony. And now, you know, any of these
Speaker 1: men that I'm talking about, John McCain, Bush forty one,
Speaker 1: Ronald Reagan, even Mitt Romney is now headed to the Senate,
Speaker 1: we're treated horribly. John McCain dies, the nicest thing said
Speaker 1: by people, some of whom were like involved in destroying
Speaker 1: this man's character. You know, the same with Reagan, same
Speaker 1: with Bush forty one, same with Bush forty three, even
Speaker 1: Mitt Romney. And it's just it's it's a phoniness that
Speaker 1: they have that It just fries me a little bit
Speaker 1: because it's you know, now they're doing it. Okay, Well
Speaker 1: he was so nice, he was such a good guy.
Speaker 1: That's not what they were saying back in the day.
Speaker 1: Trust me. All right, a lot of news we're gonna
Speaker 1: get to today. Oh boy, you're gonna be mad if
Speaker 1: you have young kids, Santa Claus. So I'll probably have
Speaker 1: to give a disclaimer coming up straight ahead, Sean Hannity Show.
Speaker 1: Smoking is not about politics, It's about people. There are
Speaker 1: thirty four million Americans that smoke. For me, Jewel was
Speaker 1: a game changer because you switch to Jewel, it's simple,
Speaker 1: it's satisfying and no more smell. I watch people all
Speaker 1: the time they run outside and the freezing coal you
Speaker 1: can be grabbing their cigarette. Well, with Jewel, you'll take
Speaker 1: a quick puff and you're good. That's it now. Jewel
Speaker 1: is designed which smokers in mind. From its form to technology.
Speaker 1: It's easy to use, no buttons, no switches, and the
Speaker 1: goal of Jewel is to impact the lives of adults
Speaker 1: smokers by providing a satisfying alternative. Switch to Jewel, you'll
Speaker 1: wish you had done it a long time ago. To

Speaker 1: com slash switch America. Warning this product contains nicotine and
Speaker 1: nicotine is an addictive ken Juul dot com slash switch America.
Speaker 1: All right, twenty five to the top of the hour
Speaker 1: as we speak, Air Force one, the President Trump had
Speaker 1: sent his plane to pick up the family and the
Speaker 1: casket with the remains of President George Herbert Walker Bush
Speaker 1: had just landed, arrived Joints Joint Bass Andrews, and as
Speaker 1: we speak, they're about to the casket is about to
Speaker 1: come off Air Force one. Some news the President, meaning
Speaker 1: President Trump is apparently expected to be at the rotunda
Speaker 1: tonight in the Capitol as the casket lies in state
Speaker 1: for the former president. We expect that to happen. I
Speaker 1: have a really cool interview that I did with Bush
Speaker 1: forty one and Bush forty three. I'm gonna air some
Speaker 1: of this tonight on Hannity nine Eastern if you want
Speaker 1: to hear it. I did have an opportunity to talk
Speaker 1: on another occasion to George Herbert Walker Bush about his
Speaker 1: on and this is a small part of it. It's
Speaker 1: got to be harder to watch your son the president
Speaker 1: than to be president. It is far worse when they
Speaker 1: go after your son, and I would say unfairly a
Speaker 1: lot of the time than when they used to when
Speaker 1: I was in a cross crosshairs and we get condemned
Speaker 1: and criticism, even when I thought it was unfair about me.
Speaker 1: It hurts much more when it's your own son. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and you might even close call, not even close, because
Speaker 1: I think about my son, who was a lot younger
Speaker 1: than yours, But I would think it's got to be
Speaker 1: a lot harder and you may have to go through
Speaker 1: this one more time. You know. I just thought that
Speaker 1: other son of hers in Florida, he's good. He's oh God,
Speaker 1: he's good. And they singled him out for two years
Speaker 1: ago as the number one target for the Democratic Party nationally,
Speaker 1: not just for governor or senate. How Terry mccauliffe, for
Speaker 1: whom I don't well put it this way, not very
Speaker 1: high on him who came and made this the number one,
Speaker 1: number one one goal for the Democratic Party nationally and
Speaker 1: Jeb won by fourteen points? Did they were? And the
Speaker 1: Poles were a little closer go into that election and
Speaker 1: he won by much ye to margin, And um, I
Speaker 1: guess maybe did mister cullif a little unhappy about that?
Speaker 1: You know, your son said something the other day that
Speaker 1: really struck me. He really did want to go to
Speaker 1: Washington and change the tone, something that he was able
Speaker 1: to accomplish in Texas since he's been there. And I'm
Speaker 1: not talking about the Michael Moore's or the pundits on TV. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we'll get to him in a minute. Oh well, good, Harry.
Speaker 1: Have you heard the leaders at the Democratic Party that shrill?
Speaker 1: I've heard him shrill, and I've heard some of our
Speaker 1: shrill in the past, but I've never felt the climate
Speaker 1: like it is now, nor the shrillness of the political opposition.
Speaker 1: It hurts. Well, yeah, you expect some of it. But
Speaker 1: when when it's your son and they got him a liar,
Speaker 1: why when they impugne his motives, it hurts a lot. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you think I feel strongly about it. Talk to Barbara
Speaker 1: Bush because she just gets tells me not to watch
Speaker 1: and all of that, but I can't. I can't not watch.
Speaker 1: You're engaged. I read recently that she won't read The
Speaker 1: New York Times anymore, and she done tells you to
Speaker 1: stop whining about it when you do read it. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: I still read about it, and I'm whining more and
Speaker 1: much more publicly than I used to, because I think
Speaker 1: they've gone too far. I think they are advocates for
Speaker 1: the Democrats. I think they have lost their objectivity that
Speaker 1: they did have many years ago. I think there's a
Speaker 1: certain arrogance amongst a lot of their people. I think,
Speaker 1: you know, you expect this on the op ed page.
Speaker 1: You've got people in there that's mere George and slam
Speaker 1: him every day. But that's you know, that's different. But
Speaker 1: when the news columns, when you see subjectivity creeping into
Speaker 1: the news columns, it concerns me. Yeah, I think they'll
Speaker 1: deny it's happening, and I say, well, too bad, I
Speaker 1: think it is. I mean, I was just one of
Speaker 1: many interactions I've had the fortune of having with President
Speaker 1: George Herbert Walker Bush, and I think the best moment
Speaker 1: was when I interviewed him and George W. Bush together
Speaker 1: as a pretty special moment. You know, let me just
Speaker 1: say one thing, as media people and pundits and TV people,
Speaker 1: and then I'll play it later in the program when
Speaker 1: we get back to the topic. But and how they're
Speaker 1: basically using the death here of President Bush forty one
Speaker 1: to attack President Trump. Let me let me just dissuade anybody.
Speaker 1: I understand the Bush family's resentments at times or maybe
Speaker 1: hostility even at times towards Donald Trump. But you know,
Speaker 1: let me tell you something. George W. Bush went into
Speaker 1: South Carolina in a battle with John McCain, and it
Speaker 1: was brutal. It's just the nature of politics. Unfortunately, it's
Speaker 1: a blood sport, it's not beam ball. And if you
Speaker 1: don't have the fight in you or the ability to
Speaker 1: take on that criticism and fight back on some level,
Speaker 1: some capacity, you know you're gonna get eaten alive. And
Speaker 1: it's the only thing that frustrates me is I listen
Speaker 1: to all these never Trumper people, and some of them
Speaker 1: have been writing and commenting on conservatism throughout even my
Speaker 1: whole career or longer, and it's just stylistically they can't
Speaker 1: stand the current president. But I remind you, how did
Speaker 1: they treat McCain when it mattered in his life when
Speaker 1: he was running for president he was a racist? How
Speaker 1: did they treat Ronald Reagan? An amiable dunce and a
Speaker 1: grade B actor? And you know another guy that they
Speaker 1: just bludgeoned him. Not as bad as today. It's never
Speaker 1: been this bad. And you just heard Bush forty one
Speaker 1: saying it was really bad and his son was president.
Speaker 1: It's it's worse. And the same thing for Mitt Romney,
Speaker 1: binders of women somehow. I mean, it's stunning what they
Speaker 1: did to that man. And let me tell you, Romney
Speaker 1: is one of these guys that is pretty It's just
Speaker 1: decent to the core. I don't like what he did
Speaker 1: in the election, and I kind of understand it. Maybe
Speaker 1: somebody as it doesn't understand a New York sensibility. I
Speaker 1: grew up in New York, but I also had the
Speaker 1: advantage of living in Rhode Island, New England, and living
Speaker 1: in California, and living in the South in Alabama and Georgia,
Speaker 1: and it has given me great perspective and ben to
Speaker 1: almost every state now about the middle of the country,
Speaker 1: the red part of the country that is so much
Speaker 1: different than than what you see in d C, New York,
Speaker 1: LA and San Francisco. So it's it's a very tough
Speaker 1: it's a tough sport. There's a lot at stake, and
Speaker 1: if you have a strong passionate belief system that if
Speaker 1: you if you believe in limited government, you're gonna fight
Speaker 1: for You're gonna take on a lot of incoming and
Speaker 1: you know, sometimes it does get personal, and I would
Speaker 1: assume at some point, I guess you know a lot
Speaker 1: of times differences eventually get put aside. I mean, Clinton
Speaker 1: and forty one used to go on tour together and
Speaker 1: if you know, I know that that there was no
Speaker 1: way George w. Bush was going to criticize Barack Obama.
Speaker 1: I tried to get him to say something that number
Speaker 1: of times. I've never had any luck doing it. But um,
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, but the people
Speaker 1: that step up take the heat. It's NonStop, and it's
Speaker 1: their calling, their service, what they believe. So I think
Speaker 1: some people are just genuinely trying to do their best.
Speaker 1: It might be wrong on the policy, but I also
Speaker 1: think there are people that are just pure power hungry.
Speaker 1: And that's a lot of the people in Washington. They
Speaker 1: love being called Senata and congressman and governor whatever it
Speaker 1: happens to be. And that's unfortunate too, because we don't
Speaker 1: benefit from that when they're looking out for themselves. All Right,
Speaker 1: a lot of other ground we're going to cover um
Speaker 1: as we speak. By the way they are, the casket
Speaker 1: is coming off of Air Force one that President Trump
Speaker 1: had sent, landing now in Joint Joint Bass Andrews on
Speaker 1: its way to the Capitol Rotunda. This is gonna anger
Speaker 1: a lot of people. But if you're a parent, you
Speaker 1: have young kids in the car, I don't want you
Speaker 1: may not want your young kids to hear this, But
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna make you mad. So you got
Speaker 1: this school in New Jersey, it's called Cedar Hill Elementary School,
Speaker 1: and you get the substitute teacher comes in. And this
Speaker 1: is one of the things that just pries me about
Speaker 1: the entire educational system and this unholy alliance that exists
Speaker 1: between teachers, unions and the Democratic Party, to the point
Speaker 1: where New York is paying literally hundreds and hundreds of teachers.
Speaker 1: They can't teach, but they can't fire them in case
Speaker 1: in some cases for literally having sexual contact with kids,
Speaker 1: you still can't fire them. Why they're not in jail
Speaker 1: is another question. But putting that aside, but the fact
Speaker 1: that you have a captive group of kids, usually it's
Speaker 1: in junior high, high school, college is the worst where
Speaker 1: all these ex hippies have gravitated for because the jobs
Speaker 1: might not maybe I don't know, and they feel that
Speaker 1: they can take a captive audience and just indoctrinate them
Speaker 1: into their belief system. We spend more money per capita
Speaker 1: per student than any other country on Earth, and we're
Speaker 1: like thirty seventh in reading, writing, and math. Overall. It's pathetic.
Speaker 1: You know, there was once a famous study in the
Speaker 1: Reagan years a nation at risk that I actually said
Speaker 1: that what has happened to the educational system in America,
Speaker 1: were it done by some outside entity or force, would
Speaker 1: be tantamount to an act of war. That's how bad
Speaker 1: it's gotten, you know. But mostly we've kind of left
Speaker 1: the really young kids alone except to it. Can't play
Speaker 1: dodgeball anymore in school because if you played dodgeball, you're
Speaker 1: gonna hit the kid with the ball and they may
Speaker 1: not like losing. You can't keep score because somebody's feelings
Speaker 1: are gonna get hurt. As if kids can't keep kids
Speaker 1: are keeping score, whether they're allowed to or not. We
Speaker 1: beat you, We beat you know whatever. I mean, you
Speaker 1: can't choose sides because one kid that maybe is really
Speaker 1: smart and math and really more academically oriented, that's where
Speaker 1: the natural gifts are. But that kid's gonna feel bad
Speaker 1: that he's picked lass. So you know, we'll just divide
Speaker 1: teams some random other way. I mean, it's gotten crazy,
Speaker 1: But think about this. So imagine you're sending your five
Speaker 1: six year old kid to school and you have a
Speaker 1: teacher is telling five and six year olds that Santa
Speaker 1: Claus isn't real. His reindeer aren't real, telling them reindeer
Speaker 1: can't fly, telling them Santa is not real, and parents,
Speaker 1: can you load this a little bit lowder? This a
Speaker 1: lot just buying presents and putting them under the tree,
Speaker 1: not some guy named Santa with a red suit and
Speaker 1: a big All right, I can't yeah, all right, So
Speaker 1: Santa Claus that your parents are Santa Claus. And then
Speaker 1: raindeer can't fly, elves aren't real. Elf on the shelf
Speaker 1: is just to pretend all that your parents move around,
Speaker 1: And then she doesn't stop there. Then the teacher says
Speaker 1: the tooth fairy isn't real, and mom and dad sneak
Speaker 1: into your room in the middle of the night when
Speaker 1: you're sleeping they put the money under your pillow, and
Speaker 1: then the Easter Bunny that doesn't exist either, and tell
Speaker 1: us them magic doesn't exist. There's no such thing. This
Speaker 1: is a grown woman thinking she has the right to
Speaker 1: literally rob kids of the utter joy, anticipation, happiness of Santa,
Speaker 1: and thinking, without any any sense that this might be wrong,
Speaker 1: that you're going to crush a kid's spirit for Christmas,
Speaker 1: and it goes you go back to this whole war
Speaker 1: on Christmas. I mean, Bill O'Reilly followed this for years
Speaker 1: and he was always right about it, inasmuch as what
Speaker 1: he was saying is you can't you know, stories say
Speaker 1: it says Christmas sale, but you can't say, or an employee,
Speaker 1: you can't say Merry Christmas, and or telling these kids,
Speaker 1: or feeling that you have the right to contradict deeply
Speaker 1: held values that you have and whether it be about religion,
Speaker 1: or about Santa or the Easter Bunny or the tooth fairy,
Speaker 1: I mean crushing five and six year olds. One of
Speaker 1: them was quoted in this article in New Jersey say,
Speaker 1: my granddaughter came home and said, Mimi, Santa isn't real.
Speaker 1: The woman flipped out and explained, no, no, no, Santa's real.
Speaker 1: Don't listen to the other kids didn't realize it was
Speaker 1: the teacher that said this, and the substitute teacher launches
Speaker 1: into a you know, grinch like diatribe. Well during what
Speaker 1: was supposed to be a writing activity. Now when you
Speaker 1: think we don't teach kids to read and write, we
Speaker 1: spend more money per capita per student than any other country,
Speaker 1: with like the worst results, the worst return our investment
Speaker 1: than anybody else. And this is what happens, and it
Speaker 1: gets you know, you see this everywhere, like for example,
Speaker 1: hannek is going on right now, and when I see
Speaker 1: my friends that I know or say happy honeka. If
Speaker 1: I see my friends at christ Mary Christmas, and if
Speaker 1: it so happens, I got it wrong with a friend.
Speaker 1: They know what the spirit is behind it. I'm trying
Speaker 1: to be nice. Unlike Saturday Night Live, all they want
Speaker 1: for Christmas is for Mueller to lock up Trump and
Speaker 1: the other option is a coup. And by the way,
Speaker 1: Sarah Palin had a great Land suck it Up cupcake.
Speaker 1: She said that the Joy Behart after Kid Rock took
Speaker 1: a shot at her, and Joy Behart Trumpetter save pardons
Speaker 1: for his kids. I'm just saying, listen, We're gonna have
Speaker 1: to make some decisions here as a culture, as a society,
Speaker 1: as a country. You know. Stanford University told the Sigma
Speaker 1: Chi fraternity to remove its American flag. Why Stanford to
Speaker 1: improve their image. Administrator reportedly told the fraternity that the
Speaker 1: flag could be seen as intimidating, aggressive and alienating. Is
Speaker 1: this is this the country? We want? The greatest generation
Speaker 1: of George Herbert Walker Bush and people like my father
Speaker 1: that fought four years in World War Two and so
Speaker 1: many others in that what Tom Brokaw called the Greatest
Speaker 1: generation an American flag, we're gonna, We're gonna now teach
Speaker 1: kids in college that that flag is seen as intimidating,
Speaker 1: aggressive and alien when all the our treasure, our kids,
Speaker 1: blood shed, lives lost, limbs lost, you know, faces destroyed
Speaker 1: in war, no country ever accumulating more power in using
Speaker 1: it for the good than this one. And we're saying
Speaker 1: that in college to our kids. And we're telling five
Speaker 1: year olds that Santa doesn't exist because we don't. We
Speaker 1: let them run away with the culture. There's no stopping them.
Speaker 1: And this is where I keep warning you we have
Speaker 1: If we have a dual justice system, we don't apply
Speaker 1: the laws equally. We don't have equal justice under the
Speaker 1: law or equal application of our laws. We're gonna lose it.
Speaker 1: And remember Reagan said, you know, freedom is but one
Speaker 1: generation away from extinction. Scary, all right, glad you with us.
Speaker 1: Sean Hannity Show told free it's eight hundred and nine
Speaker 1: for one. Sean, you want to be a part of
Speaker 1: the program. Am So air Force one is landed. It
Speaker 1: joins Bass Andrews and the casket and now hers carrying
Speaker 1: Bush forty one is a route to the Capitol Rotunda,
Speaker 1: where he will lie in state. It's expected that the President,
Speaker 1: President Trump will stop by sometime this evening. I just
Speaker 1: heard in the nine o'clock hour when I'm on Hannity.
Speaker 1: Obviously we will cover that. One of the things I
Speaker 1: want to share with you tonight is an interview I
Speaker 1: did with both Bush forty one and forty three, which
Speaker 1: I think captures more of a love between father and
Speaker 1: son than anything else. Joining us now, former Speaker of
Speaker 1: the House, New King Rich is with us. How are you, sir,
Speaker 1: Good to have you back. I'm doing well. And I
Speaker 1: think part of the reason for the great outpouring for
Speaker 1: President of Bush is that he this is the last
Speaker 1: of the World War Two heroes, the youngest naval aviator,
Speaker 1: and I think his deep love for Barbara was a
Speaker 1: model for the whole country. So it really is, in
Speaker 1: a sense, the passing of a generation of leadership. I
Speaker 1: think all of that's true. There's one little thing that
Speaker 1: irks me, and I bet it probably irks you as well.
Speaker 1: And I'm watching the media and I'm watching their coverage,
Speaker 1: and frankly people that didn't treat him well at all.
Speaker 1: They're actually the kids. Nothing bad they could ever say
Speaker 1: about him, And you know how he was treated in
Speaker 1: the course of his president Oh, he can't he doesn't
Speaker 1: even sew out of touch. He can't even use a
Speaker 1: grocery store scanner because he doesn't know what it is,
Speaker 1: or obviously ran contra or you know, the Democrats kind
Speaker 1: of push and push and push, and he tries to compromise,
Speaker 1: but he broke a campaign pledge about read my lips,
Speaker 1: no new taxes, and they bludgeoned them with that. And
Speaker 1: they're also saying, well, he's such a good man. Now
Speaker 1: they're using his demeanor, which is obviously different than President
Speaker 1: Trump's as if you know, somehow forty one or forty
Speaker 1: three didn't know that presidential politics was a blood sport.
Speaker 1: After all, it was forty one that called Reaganomics voodoo economics.
Speaker 1: And the runoff or the primary between President Bush and
Speaker 1: forty three in McCain in South Carolina was about as
Speaker 1: tough as it gets. And you know, this is part
Speaker 1: of politics, isn't it. Of course, Look, if you are
Speaker 1: a liberal and you have a chance after they die
Speaker 1: to say nice things whether they did the same thing
Speaker 1: to Ronald Reagan. I mean, people who had despised Reagan
Speaker 1: for his entire career, you know, waxed eloquent and rhapsodic
Speaker 1: about him once he died because it gives them the
Speaker 1: veneer of being reasonable and fair. But you know, in
Speaker 1: both the case of President Reagan and President Bush, the
Speaker 1: same liberals that everything they could to defeat them. And
Speaker 1: I think that's just part of where we are as
Speaker 1: a country. I mean, we are. You sure you should
Speaker 1: never and you don't, of course, but no one listening
Speaker 1: to us should never kidd themselves about where the left
Speaker 1: is and what the left's trying to accomplish. Oh. They
Speaker 1: did the same thing with John McCain. I mean, and
Speaker 1: when John McCain, when it would have mattered to say
Speaker 1: nice things about him, when he ran for president in
Speaker 1: O eight, which by the way, I suported him over Obama,
Speaker 1: and I was glad to and I was ended. I
Speaker 1: think I ended up being proven right how disastrous Obama's
Speaker 1: rigid ideology would be for the country and his policies
Speaker 1: would be. But same with John McCain, and the same
Speaker 1: Look at what they did to poor Mitt Romney. Look
Speaker 1: at how they treated Reagan. Look at how they treated Bush.
Speaker 1: But you die, they may even say a nice thing
Speaker 1: or two about you or maid who knows. I'm not
Speaker 1: saying it now. I wouldn't go overboard, and I'm not
Speaker 1: children to wait in any expectation. But uh no, you know,
Speaker 1: Senator McCain is a great example, because Senator McCain got
Speaker 1: great press until he got the nomination and then for
Speaker 1: four or five months, and I think I know he
Speaker 1: was from just deeply hurt and frustrated because for four
Speaker 1: or five months the left wing media went after him
Speaker 1: and sided with Obama. And these are he thought, these
Speaker 1: had all been his friends, and then it didn't work.
Speaker 1: You know, they ended up doing everything they could do
Speaker 1: defeating Yeah, I think that's just part of it. And
Speaker 1: you know, and I also do think, I mean, let's
Speaker 1: be clear, as much as you and I think that
Speaker 1: President Trump is a historic figure and is changing the country.
Speaker 1: From the standpoint of the of the elites, the country
Speaker 1: club set, President George H. W. Bush was just a
Speaker 1: you know, a kinder and milder and nicer person. He
Speaker 1: naturally into that group. Look, he deserves all the credit
Speaker 1: the Reaganomics, which he did call voodoo economics in the primary.
Speaker 1: But you know what, they got along great. But the
Speaker 1: team of Reagan and Bush forty one was an amazing team.
Speaker 1: And you know what, all the things that we love,
Speaker 1: We cut taxes. Twenty one million new jobs were created,
Speaker 1: long guest period of peacetime economic growth. And you want
Speaker 1: to talk about inheriting a bad economy, nobody inherited a
Speaker 1: worse economy than Ronald Reagan and George Bush. But when
Speaker 1: it came time to take the gloves off and bludge
Speaker 1: in George Herbert Walker Bush, you know, some of the
Speaker 1: people saying nice things today were nowhere to be found.
Speaker 1: They wanted him out then, just like they want Trump
Speaker 1: out now. Yeah. By the way, that reminds me one
Speaker 1: of the interesting side notes of where we are today.
Speaker 1: People on the left talk about, you know, Trump not
Speaker 1: being popular, and he's about forty four percent approval despite
Speaker 1: two years of overwhelmingly negative press coverage. Ronald Reagan in
Speaker 1: January of nineteen eighty three was at thirty five percent approval,
Speaker 1: and the darling of the left, President mccrona France, is
Speaker 1: currently at twenty six percent approval. So it just goes
Speaker 1: to show you sometimes the people see past the media.
Speaker 1: Well you know, and look, there's sometimes the right people
Speaker 1: right place, right time. I mean, I'm watching people now,
Speaker 1: there's never Trump or crowd in particular that they they
Speaker 1: they're so they're with the leftist, they're with Schumer, they're
Speaker 1: with Pelosi, there with you know, Maxine and Peach forty
Speaker 1: five and getting their faces and follow them into grocery stores, etc.
Speaker 1: And I'm listening to them and I'm like, these are
Speaker 1: people that wrote for longer than I've even been on radio,
Speaker 1: which is now my thirtieth year, about the need for
Speaker 1: lower taxes. Well, that's Trump. Uh, conservative justice as originalists,
Speaker 1: that's Trump energy independence, that's Trump. Securing our borders, that's Trump. Um.
Speaker 1: All of these accomplishments that he's had that you wrote
Speaker 1: about chronicled really well in your book. And not only
Speaker 1: that piece through strength, that's Trump. Um. Look at this
Speaker 1: this sight everything they're trying to do with Muller. Notice
Speaker 1: with Putin, Trump or Obama, and it's clearly Trump, Yeah,
Speaker 1: has been much tougher with Putin than anybody else and
Speaker 1: gets zero credit forward from the left. What do you
Speaker 1: think of the president? Now? The two things that I
Speaker 1: think happened that nobody's paying any attention to. One is
Speaker 1: the President was able to extract a number of concessions
Speaker 1: from the Chinese in exchange for not imposing new tariffs
Speaker 1: on Chinese goods, a major agreement while meeting with the
Speaker 1: world's leaders at the G twenty in Argentina. But they
Speaker 1: spoke for two and a half hours, longer than previously scheduled.
Speaker 1: Amazing and productive is how it was described. And you know,
Speaker 1: immediately China began buying more agricultural products from America along
Speaker 1: with the pledge to purchase more industrial and energy products.
Speaker 1: And also it looks like a report that you know,
Speaker 1: the Trump auto tariff tweet lifts the stocks and Beijing's
Speaker 1: been silent. But you know, we have a better deal
Speaker 1: with our European allies. We have better deal with NATO.
Speaker 1: People are now paying more of their fair share. We
Speaker 1: have a better deal with Canada and Mexico. Now a
Speaker 1: better deal with China. Oh and by the way, the
Speaker 1: president's being tough with the RAND. He's being tough with
Speaker 1: everybody in the Middle East, moving the embassy to Jerusalem.
Speaker 1: North Korea has obviously moved in quite a big direction.
Speaker 1: And you're right about Russia. This is unprecedented movement by yeah,
Speaker 1: somebody that's a disruptor, a little bit louder and break
Speaker 1: some dishes. So what well, no, not so much that
Speaker 1: that technique is working. I look, if he had not
Speaker 1: been as tough as he was with the Jim Jong Hill,
Speaker 1: I am confident that we would not be seeing any
Speaker 1: movement if he hadn't been prepared. And then this is
Speaker 1: very much the Trump model. If you read his book
Speaker 1: The Art of the Deal, the Trump model is to
Speaker 1: be personally friendly well being very tough in negotiations, and
Speaker 1: to keep the two separate. So he and I think
Speaker 1: have actually developed a reasonably good personal relationship. Well, he
Speaker 1: has said to him, look, you know, sure, you don't
Speaker 1: cut a deal. I'm just gonna have to get tougher
Speaker 1: and tougher because I represent him America and you have
Speaker 1: been ripping us off. And I think it was a
Speaker 1: clear signal that Jijan thing decided it was very much
Speaker 1: not to their interest to get involved in a head on, knockdown,
Speaker 1: drag out fight with the United States. I think that
Speaker 1: Trump's proven he can, he's willing to engage in the fight.
Speaker 1: And if you're if he didn't have believability. Then there's
Speaker 1: no way NATO is going to step up and pay
Speaker 1: their fair share. We're paying seventy two cents of every
Speaker 1: dollar in countries like Germany of making Putin rich again
Speaker 1: with energy deals. That's ridiculous. Russell the Bookie row was
Speaker 1: the art of the deal, not the art of the fight.
Speaker 1: He doesn't start a fight to have a fight. He
Speaker 1: starts to fight to move you to a position where
Speaker 1: you're going to get a better deal. But you know,
Speaker 1: but that's the whole thing. Nobody seemed. I've told many
Speaker 1: of my conservative friends were so worried about trade issues
Speaker 1: with Donald Trump. I said, he doesn't want a trade war,
Speaker 1: he doesn't want tariffs. What he wants his freer, fairer trade.
Speaker 1: And if you don't convince the people that you negotiating
Speaker 1: with that you're gonna walk, what's going to happen? They're
Speaker 1: they're never gonna give in. And then the bad deals
Speaker 1: that have been accumulating over the years that cost the
Speaker 1: American taxpayers milk billions of dollars and jobs and opportunities,
Speaker 1: guess what, Now we're getting them back. Now we have
Speaker 1: better trade deals. Now they're freer and fairer. No American
Speaker 1: president has negotiated as many economic deals in as many
Speaker 1: different countries as Trump did. Well, he was a businessman.
Speaker 1: That's why you see Trump towers in places like Panama City,
Speaker 1: and you know, we we saw them. They're going a
Speaker 1: new Trump tower down in Uruguay, which I think is
Speaker 1: now Eric's project. But you know, so this is the
Speaker 1: guy who understands that you have to have You have
Speaker 1: to understand the country you're negotiating with, you have to
Speaker 1: understand the local system, and you've got to figure out
Speaker 1: a deal that makes mutual profit, because if you don't
Speaker 1: both gain something in the long run, it's a bad deal.
Speaker 1: It's got to be when we agree. Yeah, let me
Speaker 1: ask you about Yeah, go ahead, No, mom, you're watching
Speaker 1: the issue of Robert Mueller. There's we're gonna have a
Speaker 1: lot of news at the top, well later on in
Speaker 1: a program today, but you have some updates. One article
Speaker 1: came out today and actually suggesting that there's no end
Speaker 1: in sight. You know, the Cone and Manaphort developments. You know,
Speaker 1: that's going to keep Mueller's pro going deep into twenty nineteen.
Speaker 1: And I'm thinking, you gotta be kidding me, but there's
Speaker 1: never going to be. And now all that I am
Speaker 1: writing a paper. This came this scheme out of doing
Speaker 1: your TV show the other night, and I was trying
Speaker 1: to this is right after the co on you know news,
Speaker 1: and I was trying to figure out how to put
Speaker 1: this in context because it is so nutty. And I
Speaker 1: finally concluded and I'm writing a paper that we should
Speaker 1: rename this um the Mueller Destroyed Trump Projects. This is
Speaker 1: not an investigation. This has nothing to do with an investigation.
Speaker 1: This is this is Mueller doing everything he can to
Speaker 1: destroy the president of the United States. And it's one
Speaker 1: of the reasons I made the point that Trump is
Speaker 1: more popular today than Reagan was at this point, and
Speaker 1: he is more popular today than macrona France, and that
Speaker 1: there's no legitimate basis percent the other day last week. Okay,
Speaker 1: So so here you have a guy who won constitutionally
Speaker 1: forty eight percent of the country favors him despite two
Speaker 1: years of unending negative press, and Mueller has taken upon
Speaker 1: himself as the agent of the establishment to destroy him.
Speaker 1: And there was a column written by by somebody at
Speaker 1: the Post that had absolutely captured it when they pointed
Speaker 1: out that Trump thought he was going to Buenos Aires
Speaker 1: to a really positive event, and that Mueller messed it up.
Speaker 1: And this person said, you know, Mueller does it over
Speaker 1: and over again deliberately. Well, that that is such a
Speaker 1: total violation of our entire system. By what right does
Speaker 1: this guy go out of is to try to destroy
Speaker 1: the president states? Well, look, I think you and maybe
Speaker 1: there's only a handful of us that have seen through
Speaker 1: Muller and his team from the get go. I remember
Speaker 1: back a year ago, it was no, it's gonna all
Speaker 1: be over right right after um, right after Thanksgiving, It's done,
Speaker 1: right after Christmas, right after the New Year, right after March,
Speaker 1: right after April, right after the fourth it's I don't
Speaker 1: And I look at the team he hired. No it's not.
Speaker 1: And I don't see anything that warrants the continuation of
Speaker 1: this at all, you know, And when he was first appointed,
Speaker 1: I tweeted a very positive tweet based on her record,
Speaker 1: and then I watched him hire people like Weissman, And
Speaker 1: every single person you hired was a was a left wing,
Speaker 1: cutthroat prosecutor, and I began to realize that this guy
Speaker 1: was building a hunting party that if in anybody who
Speaker 1: doesn't believe me reads Sydney Powell's amazing book To Lie
Speaker 1: About About the Justice Department, Scarry and and these guys,
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, I mean Westman was described by
Speaker 1: one of the Justice from the people as a terror
Speaker 1: And this was back involving a different case, the Arthur
Speaker 1: Anderson case, where the Supreme Court by nine to zero
Speaker 1: repudiated the prosecution, but in the process they had destroyed
Speaker 1: the company and put eighty five thousand people out of work.
Speaker 1: These the kind of guys we're dealing with. And I
Speaker 1: think I queued off of two people, Alan Burschowitz, the
Speaker 1: Harvard law professor, and Andy McCarthy, the former prosecutor for
Speaker 1: the Justice Department. And they both have been saying over
Speaker 1: and over again, where's the underlying crime? I mean, if
Speaker 1: you look at the things that co inline about, and
Speaker 1: he shouldn't lie in it. It's perfectly appropriate to punish
Speaker 1: people who lie to Congress or who lie in the growth.
Speaker 1: So I'm not happening to him at all. Look at
Speaker 1: the underlying question. Nothing that there's been alleged that about
Speaker 1: Trump was illegal. I got a lot of go there,
Speaker 1: mister speaker. Thank you We're appreciate your time. As usual,
Speaker 1: well said, treated people with respect and dignity, and put
Speaker 1: country ahead of party and self time and time again
Speaker 1: over his half century in public service. Half century. Over
Speaker 1: the last two years, deviancy has continued being defined down
Speaker 1: by this current president, his cronies, his supporters, who love
Speaker 1: telling reporters that they don't care how deviant his behavior becomes.
Speaker 1: Let's see what happens at Wednesday's memorial service. My prediction
Speaker 1: is that Trump fakes more respect for a family's whose
Speaker 1: unprecedented history of public service has repeatedly belittled. Then he
Speaker 1: goes back to making a mockery of the very office
Speaker 1: George Bush and this nation long revered, just as President
Speaker 1: Bush's character was set even during his earliest days at
Speaker 1: andover with the stories that you all have told. Donald
Speaker 1: Trump remains the man. Think about this the man he
Speaker 1: while avoiding the draft and then telling Howard Stern on
Speaker 1: the radio that sleeping around with women in New York
Speaker 1: City while avoiding sexual diseases was his own personal Vietnam.
Speaker 1: He said that, as is always the case, the presidency
Speaker 1: does not shape character. It reveals it in a raw fashion.
Speaker 1: And that is why we celebrate George H. W. Bush's
Speaker 1: legacy and fear the next two years of mister Trump's
Speaker 1: wild White House rye. I want to say one thing
Speaker 1: about him that was not picked up really because as
Speaker 1: a candidate he said, those who think we're powerless to
Speaker 1: do anything about the greenhouse effect are forgetting about the
Speaker 1: white house effect. And then he signed into law the
Speaker 1: Clean Air Act Amendment of nineteen ninety, one of the
Speaker 1: most sweeping environmental statutes ever. This president that we have
Speaker 1: now is trying to unravel everything that he did and
Speaker 1: Obama did, And if I ever become a one issue voter,
Speaker 1: it will be about pollution and the greenhouse effect, and
Speaker 1: we focused on the president. Please, I don't want to
Speaker 1: talk about trouble. I want to talk about honoring. But
Speaker 1: I'm not interested in your one issue. I don't care
Speaker 1: what by another great moment, I guess on the view
Speaker 1: twenty five now to the top of the hour, eight
Speaker 1: hundred and nine four one, Sean, if you want to
Speaker 1: be a part of the program. Ari Fleischer is with us.
Speaker 1: Of course. He was the White House Press Secretary under
Speaker 1: President George W. Bush Bush forty three, and he joins us.
Speaker 1: He wrote a column today. That really captured my attention
Speaker 1: and I agree with it wholeheartedly. It is amazing how
Speaker 1: short people's memories are. And the same thing happened with
Speaker 1: President Reagan for eight years Democrats bludgeoned him, and in
Speaker 1: death they say just the opposite. You know, remember Iran Contra,
Speaker 1: Remember all that they said. You know, they mocked the
Speaker 1: fact that George Herbert Walker Bush, they said, we got
Speaker 1: at this deal done. He made a deal with Democrats
Speaker 1: that did raise taxes, and they bludgeoned him with that
Speaker 1: even though that's what they wanted. And now in death,
Speaker 1: what do we have here the media is love for
Speaker 1: George HW. Bush that didn't exist when it mattered when
Speaker 1: he was alive, when he was president, is more about
Speaker 1: hatred for Donald Trump, as you just heard are Fleischer,
Speaker 1: How are you, sir, Great to be with you, Sean,
Speaker 1: you know, look for me. Well, let's go into the
Speaker 1: analysis that you have that that the media democrats their
Speaker 1: praise of George Herbert Walker Bush. And by the way,
Speaker 1: the man deserves nothing but praise. His whole life was
Speaker 1: about service to his country. From a young age ambassador
Speaker 1: to China, CIA director loyal wonderful VP for eight years
Speaker 1: president for four years, and I'm listening to the people
Speaker 1: that bludgeoned him all twelve years that he was in
Speaker 1: DC in that capacity. And you know, now he's the
Speaker 1: greatest guy that ever lived, because the guy we have
Speaker 1: now is horrible. You nailed at Sean, and you know
Speaker 1: Charles Heard, who wrote that up at piece, nailed it,
Speaker 1: and I totally agree with it. Here's the problem. And
Speaker 1: I'd lived through the Bush years and when I was
Speaker 1: a press or care on Capitol Hill in Washington, the
Speaker 1: press back then crucified George HW. Bush for the very
Speaker 1: things that today praising him for. They called him patrician,
Speaker 1: they called him out of touch, They called him part
Speaker 1: of the old noblesso blige that is part of an
Speaker 1: era long gone by today in his death, now they
Speaker 1: are praising the things that they back then used as
Speaker 1: a hammer to talk about how out of touch he was,
Speaker 1: including the New York Times story about him not even
Speaker 1: knowing how to read a cash register at a supermarket.
Speaker 1: Remember that of him being out of touch, And now
Speaker 1: you would have them everybody believe. And I'm glad they're
Speaker 1: covering him like this today. I wish they only did
Speaker 1: it when he was in office. What a decent good
Speaker 1: man he is, who represents some of the highest ideals
Speaker 1: of America about service, noblessoblige, and giving to your country.
Speaker 1: Now they're praising him for it. You know, it's funny
Speaker 1: because i'd noticed the same thing happened with John McCain.
Speaker 1: If you go back and John McCain's pull run, you know.
Speaker 1: And it's interesting from my perspective also because when John
Speaker 1: McCain came back after he'd had his surgery and by
Speaker 1: the way, which I thought was an act of courage
Speaker 1: and bravery, and the five years he spent in Vietnam.
Speaker 1: I can't do anything but praise a man that you
Speaker 1: had an opportunity to leave because of his name and didn't.
Speaker 1: And I had bones broken in five long years. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's heroic. There's nothing to no other way to describe it.
Speaker 1: But I supported him and went to battle for him
Speaker 1: as hard as I could when he was running because
Speaker 1: I believed and I still believe today, he would have
Speaker 1: been a far superior president. And what Barack Obama was
Speaker 1: and what he represented, and I think the truth bears
Speaker 1: out that I was pretty right about Obama being a
Speaker 1: pretty radical left wing indoctrinated leftist and he's going to
Speaker 1: stick to those policies. And he didn't show the trajectory
Speaker 1: of growth for example that I think Clinton showed it
Speaker 1: at times in his presidency. But the point is, then
Speaker 1: John McCain goes back and he bludgeons conservatives. Those people
Speaker 1: on talk radio and cable news to hell with them,
Speaker 1: actually said those words, but he kind of liked us
Speaker 1: when he was wronging. But I never thought it was personal.
Speaker 1: And then all these accolades coming from the people that
Speaker 1: called them a racist in that campaign, that's right and
Speaker 1: everything else in between, and I'm like wow, I mean,
Speaker 1: how things are reversed. And they'll do the same thing
Speaker 1: now with Mitt Romney. They were terrible to Mitt Romney
Speaker 1: when he ran for president and not to project to it.
Speaker 1: But when Mitt Romney is no longer with us, they're
Speaker 1: going to praise Mitt Romney for these same reasons. Look, Sean,
Speaker 1: I come from Bush world. I come from establishment politics.
Speaker 1: I'm much closer, as you know, to that way of
Speaker 1: thinking than I am to the Donald Trump way of thinking.
Speaker 1: But I walk in both worlds with my eyes open.
Speaker 1: And here's what I say. One of the big reasons
Speaker 1: that the American people, particularly Republican Party, rose up and
Speaker 1: wanted to Donald Trump is because they were sick and
Speaker 1: tired of people who weren't able to fight back. There's
Speaker 1: a graciousness of Republicanism. It was represented by George H. W. Bush,
Speaker 1: John McCain, and Mitt Romney. Mild boss George W. Bush
Speaker 1: not to the same degree as his father, because George W.
Speaker 1: Bush was a bit more of a punch back punch,
Speaker 1: willing to punch and engage and fight than his father.
Speaker 1: But one of the things I hear all the time
Speaker 1: from Republicans is that Donald Trump at least fights. He
Speaker 1: knows the press will never be fair, never give you
Speaker 1: a fair shake, and so he'll fight back. And if
Speaker 1: only you Bushes had done that. I hear that all
Speaker 1: the time from people. By the way, that's interesting, he said,
Speaker 1: because I hear that all the time too. And then
Speaker 1: on the other side of it, people are saying, well,
Speaker 1: could he fight just a little bit less? Well, I
Speaker 1: think that's valid as well, Sean. I mean, there's a
Speaker 1: hand on a dial here, isn't there. How much do
Speaker 1: you fight to be the best fighter and to be
Speaker 1: the most effective. And we can argue about where the
Speaker 1: hand on the dial belongs. But the point I'm making
Speaker 1: is Republicans know that the press will go after Republicans
Speaker 1: with everything they got when it counts, when they're in office,
Speaker 1: and they're not fooled when the press then starts to
Speaker 1: praise you after you're gone and it's too late. We
Speaker 1: know that about the press. You know, you bringing up
Speaker 1: a lot of great points here, and you're saying you see,
Speaker 1: as a conservative, I've often been so disappointed out with
Speaker 1: the Bushes as much as with Republicans in Congress for
Speaker 1: not having even that healthcare promise, the sixty five votes
Speaker 1: to repeal or replace Healthcare when it doesn't matter, and
Speaker 1: then when it matters, about a hundred of them in
Speaker 1: the House with nowhere to be found. They never really
Speaker 1: had the intention of doing the hard work or the
Speaker 1: In twenty fifteen, you know, they're in the Senate and
Speaker 1: they're willing to repeal only Obamacare, but when it mattered
Speaker 1: two years later, they weren't willing to do it. Seven
Speaker 1: of them change their votes on the exact same language.
Speaker 1: And that's why I'm a registered conservative. I think that
Speaker 1: you know, different times call for different things, and I
Speaker 1: think that you know in many ways the establishment side
Speaker 1: of the Republican Party, and I'm a registered conservative, has
Speaker 1: they created Donald Trump? And then, no question about it,
Speaker 1: There's no question about different times call for different things,
Speaker 1: and that's truthfuness the history of our country. We react
Speaker 1: to the error and we're in We learned lessons from it.
Speaker 1: We moved to a slightly different error or a largely
Speaker 1: different error, and maybe sometimes we swing back. We've always
Speaker 1: been like that because we're self correcting democracy. But the
Speaker 1: broader point here, who goes back to George H. W. Bush.
Speaker 1: He was gracious, he was decent, he was kind, and
Speaker 1: the press never covered him that way in life. By
Speaker 1: the way, that's all true. And then, by the way,
Speaker 1: the same I always love forty three. I thought to
Speaker 1: this day, I think that he was the right guy
Speaker 1: to deal with nine to eleven. Yeah, and look at
Speaker 1: how they bludgeoned him over nine to eleven. I mean,
Speaker 1: it was, it was. It was awful of times, and
Speaker 1: not saying that he made every right decision thereafter. And
Speaker 1: we can look back in history and maybe had we
Speaker 1: known things, if we could see the future, we'd make
Speaker 1: different decisions. Here's what I want to understand, though, because
Speaker 1: you're right in every all your observations. How is it, though,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, if we put style aside? Donald Trump on
Speaker 1: justices and judges, Donald Trump on tax cuts, Donald Trump
Speaker 1: on eliminating burdensome regulation. Donald Trump on issues like energy independence.
Speaker 1: We're now pretty much an energy independent country. If we
Speaker 1: want to be on the borders on the concept of
Speaker 1: peace through strength, a guy that puts America first, and
Speaker 1: we got to get our own house in order. If
Speaker 1: we really want to help other people all around the world,
Speaker 1: then we don't exactly always. We don't have every American
Speaker 1: working yet, but we're getting there. These principles work. And
Speaker 1: people that said their whole political lives as pundits or
Speaker 1: writers or observers of politics that say they're Republican conservative,
Speaker 1: they hate him only over style and will never even
Speaker 1: acknowledge that what he is doing is the very things
Speaker 1: that they advocated for in some cases twenty or thirty years. Well,
Speaker 1: there's a simple answer to that. Sean presidents get great
Speaker 1: on two levels. One is substance what they do what
Speaker 1: they do, but the other symbolic and the symbolism of
Speaker 1: who represents our country is tremendously important to many people.
Speaker 1: And that symbolism represents a lot of dreams, hopes, wishes,
Speaker 1: and the embodiment of personal values and virtues that people
Speaker 1: want to extend into that one person who represents the
Speaker 1: entire country. And that's the symbolic area of the office
Speaker 1: where it comes down to the president's fight and the
Speaker 1: way he goes after his opponents, the words he uses Charlottesville,
Speaker 1: those type of symbols that people look to the president
Speaker 1: to be the leader of all Americans for and given
Speaker 1: the president's animosity to President Trump, it's doubly hard for
Speaker 1: President Trump. But I'm with you on substantively. I can't
Speaker 1: see anybody making an intellectual argument against what President Trump
Speaker 1: has done. You see, this is where but you really
Speaker 1: stand out though, I mean, you have made an effort
Speaker 1: to study and understand Donald Trump. I really believe that,
Speaker 1: and I'm sure you wins the times that maybe something
Speaker 1: that he tweets out or a shot that he takes
Speaker 1: or whatever. But at the end of the day, for me,
Speaker 1: I care too much about the people of the country.
Speaker 1: And if you've got to break a few dishes and
Speaker 1: offend a few people to get things done that weren't
Speaker 1: getting done, and to you know four and a half
Speaker 1: million new jobs are created, we have eight few million
Speaker 1: fewer people on food stamps and in poverty in America.
Speaker 1: I care more about them than I do about the
Speaker 1: feelings of the media or maybe some establishment Republicans, because
Speaker 1: that's not their way of getting it done when frankly,
Speaker 1: they didn't get it done well. And this is why
Speaker 1: I've never been a never Trumper. I've always gone into
Speaker 1: this with my eyes open and trying to be good
Speaker 1: analyst as opposed to an advocate. And I'm willing to
Speaker 1: call it the way I see it. If I think
Speaker 1: the President's gone too far and says something that is hurtful,
Speaker 1: I will call him on it, such as when the
Speaker 1: president the President Trump made fund to President George H. W.
Speaker 1: Bush over Points of Light. I said back then, I
Speaker 1: don't mind the President Trump's a fighter. I do mind
Speaker 1: that he can be rude. I didn't like that. I'll
Speaker 1: praise President Trump when he deserves praise, just as he
Speaker 1: did at the G twenty and what he's accomplishing with China,
Speaker 1: which is monumental. Monumental. Well, and sorry about stay right there.
Speaker 1: I don't mean to interrupt you. We'll pick it up
Speaker 1: on that point, Ari Fleischer is with US media consultant
Speaker 1: also White House Press Secretary under President George W. Bush
Speaker 1: forty three. As we continue, we really have. I had
Speaker 1: a great interview with both forty one and forty three
Speaker 1: together and this only happened twice now in American history
Speaker 1: where father and son become president. Amazing interview. I will
Speaker 1: say this, The love that they clearly have for each
Speaker 1: other is inspiring. It's it's a father's son relationship from
Speaker 1: my perspective, on the highest level, imaginable. Right. As we continue,
Speaker 1: Ari Fleischer is with us remembering George Herbert Walker Bush.
Speaker 1: Have you spoken to the Bush family anybody forty three?
Speaker 1: I amn't. I was with former President George W. Bush
Speaker 1: about two months ago, and I was It's interesting because
Speaker 1: I asked him how his dad was doing, and he
Speaker 1: didn't give a direct answer to the question. He talked
Speaker 1: about his mom and her death met but I have
Speaker 1: not spoken to him since. Yeah. Well, it's he's getting
Speaker 1: the treatment that he deserves, and I know that the
Speaker 1: president expected. I guess tonight, I think during my hour
Speaker 1: to actually go over to the Capitol rotunda where he
Speaker 1: will pay his respects. I'm sure the first lady will
Speaker 1: be with him. Ari Fleischer, thanks so much for being
Speaker 1: with us. We appreciate it, and listen to I don't
Speaker 1: see you have a great holiday and we'll talk soon. Same,
Speaker 1: All the best, All right, eight hundred nine four one,
Speaker 1: Sean Tolfrey telephone number. You want to be a part
Speaker 1: of the program. Why is Comey's lawyers now putting out
Speaker 1: legal challenges to squash congressional subpoenas? Is James Comey in
Speaker 1: any legal jeopardy? We'll get into that, David shown Greg Jarrett,
Speaker 1: and We'll get a lot of your calls. And I'm
Speaker 1: gonna get back to my Santa Bad Teacher story, which
Speaker 1: is so outrageous it makes my blood boil. How do
Speaker 1: you tell kids at five years old, oh, that Santa
Speaker 1: Claus doesn't exist, That none of that's true? What is
Speaker 1: wrong with people? Quick break right back, we'll continue stay
Speaker 1: right here for our final news round up and information overload.
Speaker 1: President tweeted on Friday after I got fired that I
Speaker 1: better hope there's not tapes. I woke up in the
Speaker 1: middle of the night on Monday night because it didn't
Speaker 1: dawn on me originally that there might be corroboration for
Speaker 1: our conversation, there might be a tape, and my judgment
Speaker 1: was I needed to get that out into the public square,
Speaker 1: and so I asked a friend of mine to share
Speaker 1: the content of the memo with a reporter. Didn't do
Speaker 1: it myself for a variety of reasons. I asked him too,
Speaker 1: because I thought that might prompt the appointment of a
Speaker 1: special counsel. Unbelievable, a lot of news on the front
Speaker 1: as it relates to the deep State. Why was the
Speaker 1: FBI director He had a legal challenge that he ended
Speaker 1: up withdrawing. Sought seeking to quash a congressional subpoena that
Speaker 1: would compel him to testify in secret about the Bureau's
Speaker 1: decisions on the investigations I had at the twenty sixteen
Speaker 1: presidential election. More specifically, I'm sure it has to do
Speaker 1: with the fact that they changed the actual wording they
Speaker 1: were writing an exoneration in May early May twenty sixteen
Speaker 1: to Hillary Clinton the server that she had in a
Speaker 1: mom and pop shop bathroom closet. He had, the one
Speaker 1: with top secret class of Special Access Program information on it,
Speaker 1: which is a clear violation of the Espionage Act. I
Speaker 1: mean if Paul Manaford's going to get in trouble for
Speaker 1: putting false information on a loan application, and Papadopoulos is
Speaker 1: going to go to jail for two weeks for lying
Speaker 1: to the FBI. And thirty plus year military servant Lieutenant
Speaker 1: General Flynt. If he's going to go to jail for
Speaker 1: god knows how long and he has to plead to
Speaker 1: lying to the FBI when the FBI didn't think he lied,
Speaker 1: then I'm thinking that maybe Comey has to answer for
Speaker 1: why did you let her off the hook? And how
Speaker 1: many other Americans get away with? Oh, let's delete the emails, bleach,
Speaker 1: bit the hard drives, and beat the crap out of
Speaker 1: the devices so that we don't have to comply with
Speaker 1: a congressional subpoena anyway, So Comy finally agrees to sit down.
Speaker 1: We have Jerome Corsi, who spent an hour with us
Speaker 1: last week earlier today, filing a criminal and ethics complaint
Speaker 1: against Robert Muller and his team, accusing the investigators trying
Speaker 1: to bully him into giving false testimony, which gets to
Speaker 1: the heart of what we call the Sammy the bullgro HONO,
Speaker 1: you tell us what we want and we're going to
Speaker 1: get you a get out of jail free card, and
Speaker 1: that is a very scary scenario for the rest of
Speaker 1: the world. In my opinion, we can't have oh, we'll
Speaker 1: bribe you. And julianni is now accusing Mueller pressuring witnesses
Speaker 1: to lie, which is exactly what's happening anyway. Joining us
Speaker 1: to get to the latest developments on all this. David
Speaker 1: Shone's Civil liberties attorney, Criminal rights criminal defense attorney Greg Jarrett,
Speaker 1: Fox News Legal Analysts, author of the number one bestseller
Speaker 1: of The Russia Hoax. Welcome both of you. Let's start
Speaker 1: with you, Greg, and let's talk about Coomy and his
Speaker 1: decision and withdrawing his legal challenge. What are you thinks
Speaker 1: going on? Well, Coomey is a crafty, cunning guy. He's
Speaker 1: who slippery as an eel, and look at what he's done.
Speaker 1: He twisted the law to clear Hillary Clinton when he
Speaker 1: knew she committed crimes. Then he launched an investigation of
Speaker 1: Trump without evidence. Then he lied to a fisichord to
Speaker 1: spy on a Trump associate. Then he stole government documents
Speaker 1: and leaked them to the media to trigger the Special Council.
Speaker 1: Who's his pal and then he continuously has given deceptive
Speaker 1: answers to Congress. You know, if anybody should be charged
Speaker 1: with making a Falter misleading statement, it should become ten
Speaker 1: times over. So it'll be interesting to see how he
Speaker 1: holds up under cross examination in front of Congress, and
Speaker 1: we'll know the results within twenty four hours. In a
Speaker 1: radio interview on Sunday, Juliani accused Robert Muller David Schen
Speaker 1: of pressuring witnesses to lie. Now, that pretty much is
Speaker 1: what was described in detail on this program by Jerome Corsi.
Speaker 1: Both Jerome Corsi and Roger Stone have repeated to me
Speaker 1: that they never, ever, in their lives, ever had any
Speaker 1: contact with Wiki Leagues, a representative of Wiki Leagues, a
Speaker 1: third party associated with Wiki leagues, or Julian Assange. Now,
Speaker 1: if that's the case, if they're sending emails back and
Speaker 1: forth and wondering what else Wiki leagues might have, which
Speaker 1: was frankly the widespread speculation after the DNC emails dropped,
Speaker 1: Would that be a crime? Is that something nefarious? Is
Speaker 1: that anything outside of the ordinary when it comes to politics,
Speaker 1: especially when you compare it to Hillary Clinton, you know,
Speaker 1: hiring a foreign national to put together a dossier full
Speaker 1: of Russian lies that were fed to the American people
Speaker 1: and used to bludgeon Donald Trump. You'd percent right, So listen.
Speaker 1: The underlying issue here that you put your finger on
Speaker 1: is absolutely huge. This Jerome Corsi thing is sensational. Frankly,
Speaker 1: I don't know that it will go anyplace if they
Speaker 1: indict in there's an ongoing criminal case, because be very
Speaker 1: difficult to be hesitant to interfere with that. On the
Speaker 1: other hand, because it's an ethics complaints, clearly the Justice
Speaker 1: Department could do something. Just is where the overseer of
Speaker 1: the Special Council must act. You have witt Or there now.
Speaker 1: He has the authority and I would say even the
Speaker 1: obligation to act when he learns about this kind of contact,
Speaker 1: which was completely to be expected. When you have a
Speaker 1: team of people like Mueller, Weissman, Andreas, Ree, etc. This
Speaker 1: has been their mo throughout their careers. Joe, keep tell
Speaker 1: us what we want, you get off. Don't tell us
Speaker 1: what we want. You're gonna have more trouble than you
Speaker 1: ever could have imagined. That's not about getting it. But
Speaker 1: let me just add some context to that. That is
Speaker 1: exactly what Jerome course he told us David this week,
Speaker 1: he said that he was told exactly what they wanted
Speaker 1: him to say. Now he's seventy two years old, and
Speaker 1: he could he knows he's risking potentially his life in jail.
Speaker 1: By the way, so is Paul Manaford. I don't know
Speaker 1: how old Manaphord. He's got to be close to seventy, right.
Speaker 1: So Manaphord comes up with a cooperation deal after he
Speaker 1: had the partial convictions in the one trial that took
Speaker 1: place to avoid the other trial, and now we hear
Speaker 1: that Muller is just out for blood. I mean, how
Speaker 1: many more? How many years do you want to put
Speaker 1: Manaphord in jail? You want to guarantee that he dies
Speaker 1: in jail because of taxes and a bank loan fraud.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's what if that's what the penalty is.
Speaker 1: I guess that's what he's going to get. It's called
Speaker 1: the justice system. This is a complete injustice. Nobody out
Speaker 1: there believes that this is how they operate day to day.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, this is what these people have made
Speaker 1: a career of doing. In the run of the meal
Speaker 1: cases that don't get the attention. This is getting Nobody's
Speaker 1: done much in the past mc COURSI has done. Now
Speaker 1: he's at least putting it out there, whether it goes
Speaker 1: any place or not, he's putting it out there. And
Speaker 1: I believe within the Justice Department they have an obligation
Speaker 1: to find out if this is happening, you know that
Speaker 1: it is, and to rain it in immediately and to
Speaker 1: stop the special counsel from doing this or get rid
Speaker 1: of them. Well, we've been saying it for a long
Speaker 1: time now, I'm assuming here there was an article that
Speaker 1: came out no end in sight cone Manaphort development seen
Speaker 1: as keeping mulloprobe going well into twenty nineteen. So I
Speaker 1: guess now we've got a two year process in this,
Speaker 1: Greg Jarrett. But yet, you know, people ask me, well,
Speaker 1: why do you keep bringing up Hillary Clinton, Because well,
Speaker 1: if you don't Hillary Clinton, who pays for Russian lies
Speaker 1: that are disseminated by top intelligence officials within our government
Speaker 1: to the American people before the election and then used
Speaker 1: to commit fraud to get Lawrence to spy on a
Speaker 1: Trump campaign associate, and they don't do the proper vetting
Speaker 1: and corroboration, then that's fraud on affies. A court four
Speaker 1: separate times and then when it's used in a media
Speaker 1: league strategy as part of an insurance policy by top
Speaker 1: FBI people that think that Hillary should win one hundred
Speaker 1: million to zero, and we're also involved in her exoneration
Speaker 1: before investigation. I'm thinking that it's pretty relevant if we're
Speaker 1: going to consider principles of equal justice under the law
Speaker 1: and equal application of our laws. The only collusion with
Speaker 1: Russian vault Hillary Clinton. Clinton paid for Russian information, set
Speaker 1: it to the FBI and the Department of Justice, who
Speaker 1: used it to launch an investigation fraudulently and in violation
Speaker 1: of their regulations, and then used it to spy on
Speaker 1: a Trump associate. Yet there is no investigation that we're
Speaker 1: aware of, no legitimate investigation of Hillary Clinton, fusion, GPS,
Speaker 1: Christopher Steele, James Comey, and the whole gang of corrupt
Speaker 1: individuals at the FBI and the Department of Justice. And
Speaker 1: yet juxtaposed the investigation of Trump, there's no evidence that
Speaker 1: he ever colluded or had an agreement of conspiracy or
Speaker 1: coordination with Russians to win the election. No, but there
Speaker 1: are two tracks though that Muller is obviously taking. If
Speaker 1: they can tie anybody that knows Donald Trump whether they
Speaker 1: communicated with him or not. And in the case of
Speaker 1: Roger Stone, he said absolutely not that they can somehow
Speaker 1: tie him to some knowledge of the Wiki leak's release. Well,
Speaker 1: if Donald Trump didn't steal it, and Donald Trump didn't
Speaker 1: conspire to steal it, my reading of the Pentagon Papers
Speaker 1: ruling and six three Supreme Court decision is that they
Speaker 1: would have as much right to get that information as
Speaker 1: the New York Times has a right to get an imprint.
Speaker 1: Of course, he did exactly what I did. I reached
Speaker 1: out to Wiki Leaks and Julian Assange to get more information.
Speaker 1: Did you get time to do that? No, I got nowhere.
Speaker 1: Like hundreds of journalists correct what I agree with David
Speaker 1: that what by the way, I don't, But I got somewhere.
Speaker 1: I got an interview on radio, MTV interview. You're the
Speaker 1: only one who got anywhere. I'm not bragging or anything.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, but Jerome Corsi has now laid out
Speaker 1: a complaint with the Department of Justice that Muller is
Speaker 1: trying to get him to sign on to a lie,
Speaker 1: to agree to a narrative that Mueller has conjured out
Speaker 1: of thin air of Trump Russian collusion. Of course he
Speaker 1: won't do it. He said, I'm not gonna lie about this,
Speaker 1: And apparently Manaford is doing the same thing. This is
Speaker 1: test the line. It's bribery, is extortion, intimidation, threats, and
Speaker 1: judicial bullying, and the person who should be held responsible
Speaker 1: is Robert Muller and his team of partisans. Well, if
Speaker 1: that's the case, and you know it is bribery, it
Speaker 1: is a thing of value. And I understand prosecutorial discretion,
Speaker 1: but there's a difference. You know, when you see a
Speaker 1: person and you go looking for a crime here, and
Speaker 1: you're willing to say to a guy that is going
Speaker 1: to jail maybe for the rest of their life, you
Speaker 1: tell us what we want and we're gonna, we're gonna,
Speaker 1: We're gonna take that jail issue away for you. That's
Speaker 1: a pretty large incentive for most people. What do you
Speaker 1: want me to say? Okay, I'm Sammy the bull. I
Speaker 1: murdered what nineteen people? David? You do these cases? He
Speaker 1: murdered nineteen people. But he testifies against Gotti and some
Speaker 1: other top mob guys and he gets a witness protection
Speaker 1: program house in Arizona. Pretty good deal. No jail time
Speaker 1: for nineteen murders or time served when he was first caught. Yeah, listen,
Speaker 1: Legitimately it is called obstruction of justice. You don't see
Speaker 1: it prosecuted because all of these folks are in it
Speaker 1: together on the state level. You know, the state DA
Speaker 1: is elected and they all work together, et cetera. You
Speaker 1: have an opportunity now to really send a message again. Whittaker,
Speaker 1: under the Special Regulations on the Special Council Regulations, has
Speaker 1: an obligation to oversee all of this and to rein
Speaker 1: him in specifically, the regulations provide for him to call
Speaker 1: back conduct conduct that's inappropriate and to report that then
Speaker 1: to Congress. This is an opportunity. Now he's independent from Muller.
Speaker 1: That's you know, the natures that by definition, and when
Speaker 1: he hears about this happening, he must investigate. He must
Speaker 1: take action, even if the courts try to stop it,
Speaker 1: because it's interfering with the against coursey. Whittaker has an
Speaker 1: independent obligation to get into it. Well, there's a story
Speaker 1: out today that Mark Warner, the Democrat from Virginia, and
Speaker 1: that he has sent a number of referrals to Bob Muller.
Speaker 1: And he said this in a Sunday Sunday interview and
Speaker 1: its signals. You know the quote, if you lie to Congress,
Speaker 1: and I'm your chairman, chairmanber On, they said, if you
Speaker 1: lied to Congress, We're going after you. Now, I had
Speaker 1: a whole list of people that had lied to Congress
Speaker 1: that have gotten away from gotten away with it time
Speaker 1: after time. The only person I know that's ever been
Speaker 1: held accountable is Michael Cohen. Yeah. And by the way,
Speaker 1: you know Christopher Steele, who phonied up this dossier that
Speaker 1: was used to damage Trump, a whole pretext for the
Speaker 1: investigation of Trump. He lied to the FBI agents. Why
Speaker 1: isn't there an outstanding indictment in order for extradition for
Speaker 1: Christopher Steele? Why he lied to the FBI When he
Speaker 1: said I never talked to the media, Clearly he did
Speaker 1: talk to the media about the dossier he and Fusion
Speaker 1: GPS founder Glenn Simpson were feeding this. Simpson, by their way,
Speaker 1: has taken the Fifth against self incrimination. And so why
Speaker 1: aren't there charges and prosecutions and indictments against these individuals.
Speaker 1: Why hasn't this been presented to a grand jury? Stay
Speaker 1: right there, Greg Jared David Shone on the other side,
Speaker 1: I'm going to get back to this issue with this
Speaker 1: teacher corruption that is now a bounds everywhere sadly in
Speaker 1: just a minute, and as we continue with David Shone
Speaker 1: and Greg Jared, I only have about thirty seconds left
Speaker 1: each and we're gonna get the calls. And by the way,
Speaker 1: teachers telling five year olds that Santa doesn't exist. Do
Speaker 1: you think both Warner and Burr really mean it for
Speaker 1: those people that we know that lied to Congress, Greg,
Speaker 1: and they're really going to bring in all those Clinton
Speaker 1: people and charge them. I doubt it, No, of course not. No,
Speaker 1: they never will. Hillary Clinton gave deceptive answers on numerous
Speaker 1: occasions under growth. She deceived the FBI during her interview.
Speaker 1: She'll never be held accountable unless there is a new
Speaker 1: appointed and confirmed Attorney General like a John Ratcliffe who's
Speaker 1: a congressman from Texas. He would clean house and hold
Speaker 1: those accounts. Why do you have so much confidence in him?
Speaker 1: Broke in the law. All Let me give David the
Speaker 1: last thirty We'll talk about that later. What do you
Speaker 1: think they are all these people are going to be
Speaker 1: held accountable? Because I doubt it. It It seems the Clinton's
Speaker 1: we have a two tier justice system, David, absolutely, and
Speaker 1: they absolutely will not be held accountable by that Congress. Listen.
Speaker 1: We saw it with when Struck, when he testified, people
Speaker 1: like Jerry Nadler made him out to be a hero.
Speaker 1: They're not looking for the truth. Let me say this,
Speaker 1: this Comy situation offers a great opportunity. They have to
Speaker 1: be prepared this time. They had Struck making him look
Speaker 1: like monkeys last time. They must be prepared to ask
Speaker 1: him the tough questions. He has a lot to answer for, Toomey,
Speaker 1: and he can't make you the circus in public like
Speaker 1: he wants to do. Get him under oath and lock
Speaker 1: him in. Have some people who know how to ask questions,
Speaker 1: asking him the questions. Even the IG noted Comey's a
Speaker 1: conduct in the slow rolling, the Wiener laptop business, all
Speaker 1: of those kinds of things, the leaks. Listen. I hope,
Speaker 1: I hope it happens, but I gotta be honest. I
Speaker 1: don't have a lot of confidence, all right, David, thank you,
Speaker 1: and Happy Hanuka my friend by the way, and Greg,
Speaker 1: thank you, and happy Holidays to every buddy. Merry Christmas
Speaker 1: to everybody too. Eight hundred and nine four one, Shawn
Speaker 1: told free telephone number, quick break right back your calls. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're trying to tell five year olds now in school
Speaker 1: Santa doesn't exist. Really, you want to take all fun
Speaker 1: out of kids' lives completely. They can't keep scoring now,
Speaker 1: they can't do this, can't play dodgeball. Somebody might get hit.
Speaker 1: All right, twenty five now until the top of the hour,
Speaker 1: eight hundred and nine four one sewn toll free telephone numb.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get to your calls here the story I
Speaker 1: mentioned earlier. By the way, little disclaimer here, if you
Speaker 1: have kids in the car, you may want to monitor
Speaker 1: the volume a little bit as you drive, because we're
Speaker 1: talking about a teacher that said some really dumb things
Speaker 1: to five and six year olds. Can you believe this
Speaker 1: teacher in New Jersey? I mean it's a it's Cedar
Speaker 1: Hill Elementary School, and you know you got this New
Speaker 1: Jersey substitute teacher. These are five and six year olds
Speaker 1: and she's telling them Santah doesn't exist, Santa Claus doesn't exist,
Speaker 1: and his reindeer aren't real. And it gets worse. She
Speaker 1: goes on and on and unleashing on five and six
Speaker 1: year old kids. Santa isn't real. And parents, for are
Speaker 1: the ones that put the presents under the tree. She
Speaker 1: tells them, reindeer can't fly, elves aren't real. Elf on
Speaker 1: the shelf is just to pretend all that your parents
Speaker 1: move around, and the tooth fairies not real. Mom and
Speaker 1: dad sneak into your room in the middle of the
Speaker 1: night and put money under your pillow. They easter bunnies
Speaker 1: not real. Magic doesn't exist. There's no such thing as magic.
Speaker 1: This is a grown woman. You know. Why do people
Speaker 1: think that they have the right in school teachers, in
Speaker 1: this case five and six year olds, that they can
Speaker 1: contradict values of parents, because most parents want their kids
Speaker 1: to enjoy the anticipation, the excitement, the fun of Christmas
Speaker 1: and that season and Santa Claus. And some of the kids,
Speaker 1: to their credit, they didn't believe the teacher, you know,
Speaker 1: some did. My granddaughter came home yesterday and told me, Mimi,
Speaker 1: Santa Claus isn't real, and I flipped out. The woman recalled,
Speaker 1: I had to explain to our Santa's real Sama. Of
Speaker 1: course Santa is real anyway. So I don't know why
Speaker 1: people want to take people's joy away all the time,
Speaker 1: all right before we get to your calls on this
Speaker 1: eight hundred nine one, Sean. I think the other great
Speaker 1: story of the day too is Alice Sharpton's National Action Network.
Speaker 1: Al Sharpton actually he gave himself five hundred and I
Speaker 1: thought thirty five thirty one thousand dollars and to give
Speaker 1: the his life story rights for a ten year period
Speaker 1: to his nonprofit in his latest tax filing. Oh man,
Speaker 1: I gotta pull this one off. I want to you know,
Speaker 1: this is sort of like Hillary, don't try this at home.
Speaker 1: Don't try subpoenaed email deletions and bleach bit of on
Speaker 1: your hard drive of busting up devices. Before we do,
Speaker 1: I want to just tell you I picked up a novel.
Speaker 1: So I work with wonderful people, the best people ever
Speaker 1: in radio. I have the best team I've ever had
Speaker 1: in all my years at Fox, and for many people
Speaker 1: I'm literally work with me twenty plus years. It's it's
Speaker 1: and you get to know people, and I just have
Speaker 1: the best teams everywhere. And one guy is really he
Speaker 1: works over at Fox with me. His name is Dion
Speaker 1: and he actually wrote this book. And I picked up
Speaker 1: the book and I was blown away because it's called
Speaker 1: blood in the streets. It's over the course of seven
Speaker 1: days in New Haven in the seventies with a veteran
Speaker 1: homicide detective by the name of Frank Succhi gradually losing
Speaker 1: his grip on sanity and sobriety while he's investigating the
Speaker 1: murder of his best friend's child, and he tells this
Speaker 1: whole story. I couldn't put the book down. And what
Speaker 1: even shocked me more is the nice thing. Why did
Speaker 1: you say all these nice things about me in the book.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of people that really hate Hannity, but
Speaker 1: he's really not that bad in real life. Dion is
Speaker 1: with us. How are you good, Sean? How are you
Speaker 1: on for Sean? How's everything? Thank you for having me on? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's great, it's a great I couldn't put the book down.
Speaker 1: So I work with all these talented people at Fox
Speaker 1: UM And now you've you've done some acting work in
Speaker 1: the past. Correct, you've been on Neil Cavuto's show. Is
Speaker 1: another friend of a mutual friend of ours? Ryan? Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's correct. Yeah, I was going on Neil's show, helping
Speaker 1: him to demand Fox Business Network starting back in twenty eleven,
Speaker 1: and then I graduated to like a panel position on
Speaker 1: his Friday show. He occasionally does. But yeah, I work.
Speaker 1: I've been working with you, and it's it's so funny.
Speaker 1: I like to jokingly refer to you as the big
Speaker 1: brother I've never had. Oh yeah, you do every day
Speaker 1: to me. Yeah, and you jokingly refer to me as
Speaker 1: a little brother you never wanted exactly. Yeah, well, I
Speaker 1: gotta say this. I'm very proud of you because the
Speaker 1: book is great. We're gonna put it up on our website,
Speaker 1: and I wanted to give it a plug. But go ahead,
Speaker 1: what do you want to say? Oh no, I just
Speaker 1: want to you know, I love telling people how awesome
Speaker 1: you are, and it just times I just don't like
Speaker 1: the rawdeal you sometimes getting. I wish the stories of
Speaker 1: how nice of a person you are and how good
Speaker 1: you are to your friends and to your co workers.
Speaker 1: You know, we get out there more, you know. I
Speaker 1: just you're just saying that because I have I have
Speaker 1: pizza day once a week. That's the only reason you're
Speaker 1: saying that. Yeah. Well, I mean, you know, going on
Speaker 1: sixteen years working with to day and day out, it's
Speaker 1: great to see this side of the world of you know,
Speaker 1: I'm usually just with at the TV show with you.
Speaker 1: I never get to see you on this side on
Speaker 1: the radio show. It's it's really exciting. Yeah. The book
Speaker 1: is Blood in the Streets. It's out tomorrow. It's a
Speaker 1: historical fiction of thriller that I've written. It started. I
Speaker 1: wrote it as a screenplay. It started it back in
Speaker 1: two thousand and three, and it's taking me sixteen years
Speaker 1: to get the thing out And in two thousand and
Speaker 1: twelve I finally turned it into a book and I'm
Speaker 1: finally getting it out there. So you know, it's been
Speaker 1: a long road for me to get this out to
Speaker 1: pasture and get it to the market. By the way,
Speaker 1: it's a truth you wrote in the acknowledgements that you
Speaker 1: know talking about me. You can literally ring Hannity up
Speaker 1: at three am and say I need ten grand for
Speaker 1: bail money and his only question and would be where
Speaker 1: do I send it? It's true, true, Yeah, it's it's
Speaker 1: you know, just just how great of a guy. I mean,
Speaker 1: we work in a business where people can be you know,
Speaker 1: sometimes not that mean, or they can have or not
Speaker 1: that nice, and they can have a persona where they're
Speaker 1: very nice on TV, but then they're quite different to
Speaker 1: the people they work with day to day, and you're
Speaker 1: one of those exemptions where you're nice on and off
Speaker 1: and it's just except when you except when you grab
Speaker 1: my back, I can't stand like, so d we have
Speaker 1: to give a context to that because that sounds awkward. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I do audio, So I put the microphone in the
Speaker 1: year on him every day. And sometimes you know, Sean
Speaker 1: will be running any hill, have other things on his mind,
Speaker 1: and I'm getting there trying to wire him up. And
Speaker 1: then you know, if something doesn't go right, you know,
Speaker 1: you're you're you got your mind another matter. So sometimes
Speaker 1: you just don't want to be, you know, I just
Speaker 1: don't like to be. There's two things that are really
Speaker 1: sensitive my life. Number one, my hearing is so shot
Speaker 1: from thirty years of radio. If anyone like pulls in
Speaker 1: my ear, I'm like, oh, it's just the worst feeling.
Speaker 1: And then the other one is, you know, somebody groping
Speaker 1: your back instead of just you know, having a system
Speaker 1: where we have now where it just takes two seconds
Speaker 1: and it's done. And it took a while for us
Speaker 1: to get that down. But yeah, you know, it's just
Speaker 1: it's it's great to work with you day in and
Speaker 1: day out. It's very nice. Well, I'm really proud of you.
Speaker 1: And by the way, this this is a sixteen year
Speaker 1: labor of love and it's called Blood in the Streets.
Speaker 1: We're gonna put his book on Hannity dot com. You
Speaker 1: can get it on Amazon dot com. Dion, We're proud
Speaker 1: of you. We'll see you tonight. Thank you, my friend, Sean.
Speaker 1: Thank you so very much for everything. Thank you. All right,
Speaker 1: eight hundred nine for one Sean Tolfree telephone number. All right,
Speaker 1: let's get to our busy telephones here. Alison, Louisiana Allison high,
Speaker 1: glad you're patient. Thanks for calling. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year,
Speaker 1: Happy Hanukkah. I think we can say it all. Yes,
Speaker 1: Happy Mary, Christmas. See Sean. And Um, it's quite an honor.
Speaker 1: You're very talented at what you do and I appreciate
Speaker 1: you keeping list form. I'm glad to do it. It's
Speaker 1: my honor every day to have this microphone. Can you
Speaker 1: believe this teacher? Is this unbelievable? Um, I'm sad to
Speaker 1: say I'm not as shocked as I would have been
Speaker 1: a few years ago. But after the whole Rudolph incidence
Speaker 1: and taking certain song Christmas songs off the air. I
Speaker 1: just yeah, I guess for a five year old it's
Speaker 1: a little extreme, but yeah, it's crazy. They shouldn't do it.
Speaker 1: It's it's a parent's job to teach the traditions they
Speaker 1: want their children to have and to grow up with.
Speaker 1: It's not it's not a teacher's definitely not a substitute
Speaker 1: teacher's show. Yeah. Look, I you know, it's just as
Speaker 1: it's like for a five year old kid. This is
Speaker 1: like Santa. You know, they're just at the age where
Speaker 1: they're realizing that, oh my gosh, once a year this
Speaker 1: guy had a you know, a real real heavy guy
Speaker 1: in a big red suit with a big white beard
Speaker 1: and a nice hat, and reindeer with Rudolph leading the way,
Speaker 1: you know, flies and they're gonna come down my chimney
Speaker 1: and they're gonna and they're gonna put presents under the tree.
Speaker 1: And if I had been a bad boy or a
Speaker 1: good boy or a good girl or bad I know,
Speaker 1: I might get cold or whatever. And it's unbelievable that
Speaker 1: this is what teachers do. Though they have a captive
Speaker 1: all Adians, and many of them indoctrinate. They don't teach
Speaker 1: and the idea that they feel that they have a
Speaker 1: right somehow to abandon a mission of reading, writing, and arithmetic,
Speaker 1: of which they're not doing great in themselves in terms
Speaker 1: of where you know, we pay more money per capita,
Speaker 1: per student, per education with you know, some of the
Speaker 1: worst results, and you have those unholy alliance with teachers
Speaker 1: unions and uh, you know that protect bad teachers and
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party can't fire bad teachers. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: horrible and now we're gonna now we're gonna shatter kids
Speaker 1: dreams and then too bad for you if you don't
Speaker 1: like it. That's where you have only have one choice anyway,
Speaker 1: Thank you, Alison. You know, you live in a state
Speaker 1: of New York, and let's say you're in Westchester County,
Speaker 1: the number one property tax county in the country, or
Speaker 1: you live in Nassau County, the number two property tax
Speaker 1: county in the country, and New York forget it, real
Speaker 1: estate through the roof. And so you pay for these
Speaker 1: schools with these high property taxes supposedly, and then all
Speaker 1: the lottery money that's supposed to go to education, and
Speaker 1: you have one choice because you're paying so much in taxes.
Speaker 1: Then the idea of them putting another forty thousand dollars
Speaker 1: down for a private education for your kids. Then you're
Speaker 1: paying for schools you don't use, and then you're paying
Speaker 1: for on top of the high property taxes. You just
Speaker 1: they get you coming and going, and then it doesn't
Speaker 1: matter what you values you may have as a parent,
Speaker 1: they're not going to honor them. Unbelievable. Guy is in Maryland. Guy, Hi,
Speaker 1: how are you glad you called? Oh? Hey, Sean, thanks
Speaker 1: for taking my call. Hey listen, Sean, that teacher was
Speaker 1: a total jackass. But listen, you can turn a negative
Speaker 1: into a positive. Listen to what my wife is starting
Speaker 1: to do. When people say that Santa Claus doesn't exist,
Speaker 1: she says, wait a minute, he definitely existed, you know,
Speaker 1: you know, we have his history, a presence, he did
Speaker 1: all this. But if if he has passed on, now
Speaker 1: the parents have picked up and now the parents are
Speaker 1: doing the Santa Claus job. So that's what we've done
Speaker 1: to lighten them, to lighten the load. When you have
Speaker 1: like idiot teachers like that, you know, if the problem
Speaker 1: is it's at every level, I mean it's it's in
Speaker 1: grammar school, grade school, high school, now we're going after
Speaker 1: five year olds. Now we can contradict every value that
Speaker 1: parents want to instill in their kids, and still our
Speaker 1: kids can't read or write. And I'm a teacher and
Speaker 1: I'm telling you education has moved so far to the left,
Speaker 1: and until we get the value education back into schools,
Speaker 1: it's never going to get better. You got to teach
Speaker 1: values first before you can straighten up education. Okay, there's
Speaker 1: no values. These people that these people that are running
Speaker 1: the show have no values. So how the heck are
Speaker 1: we expecting the kids that have values? You know, I
Speaker 1: mean so true, Listen, I get it, but I will
Speaker 1: tell you most parents don't agree with this. You know,
Speaker 1: this whole war on Christmas, it is a war on
Speaker 1: christ Happy holidays right now, is hanaka. I have so
Speaker 1: many of my friends I have no problem calling hey,
Speaker 1: happy Honakah, you know, because and they'll they'll tell me
Speaker 1: on Christmas, Merry Christmas. Then you got a bunch of
Speaker 1: other people that are so uptight that they might get
Speaker 1: something wrong that they say, oh, we can't you can't
Speaker 1: say it in the store, Chris. Meanwhile, they have big
Speaker 1: Christmas savings, but they can't say their employees are forbidden
Speaker 1: from saying Merry Christmas. It's unbelievable. Back to our phones,
Speaker 1: is it? How do you say this? Kaya? What is okay?
Speaker 1: You're right? CJ? C I A Y E CJ. How
Speaker 1: are you? You're on the Sean Hannity Showy, Hey, Hannedy
Speaker 1: it's CJ. I'm with that group that's a horrible choir
Speaker 1: that literally sing about Trump. I've called in before. I
Speaker 1: remember you calling in. Yeah, how are you doing? I'm
Speaker 1: doing great? You're saying the devil went down to Georgia's
Speaker 1: And it was like the hollight of my life. You know.
Speaker 1: It's funny because a lot of people said, what do
Speaker 1: you mean you don't know them? And I didn't, and
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm sorry, I don't know everything. I'm trying
Speaker 1: my best. Hey, what's going on? How are you guys
Speaker 1: doing it? You're all doing it right? Oh, we're doing great.
Speaker 1: We're just like constantly trying to champion causes that we
Speaker 1: believe in. Like we make fools of ourselves singing on
Speaker 1: the internet, we might as well, you know, stick up
Speaker 1: for things we believe in, like Trump And I called
Speaker 1: you actually to talk about the border wall. I've heard
Speaker 1: all the stuff going on about Christmas, and I've just
Speaker 1: got like words in my head. But we're right now.
Speaker 1: We just did a song called Brick by Bricks for
Speaker 1: the American Border Foundation, and I don't know if you
Speaker 1: or your listeners know about them, but we want the
Speaker 1: border wall bill. Well, I love what you're doing. You
Speaker 1: know what, maybe we'll put a link on my website.
Speaker 1: I'm a little bit behind CJ, but I will say this.
Speaker 1: It just irks me with all the tax money we
Speaker 1: pay and all the money that gets spent, and all,
Speaker 1: you know, for all these countries, including those that you
Speaker 1: know where they are citizens are not respecting our laws
Speaker 1: and sovereignty. And I'm just like, why why do I
Speaker 1: have to get I mean, I get it, and other
Speaker 1: people have suggested it to me, but I'm like, ugh,
Speaker 1: it just is wrong that government can't do their job.
Speaker 1: Securing our boarders is at their job. It's about national
Speaker 1: security more than anything else, and it's about the rule
Speaker 1: of law. And you have so many people that literally
Speaker 1: now we have aiding and abetting the States are aiding
Speaker 1: and abetting sittings, are aiding and abetting sanctuary cities criminal activity,
Speaker 1: and there's no consequences. But if you're a Republican, you're
Speaker 1: gonna be locked up. Don't do anything wrong, all right,
Speaker 1: Hannity Tonight, ninety eastern Fox News Channel. As the tasket
Speaker 1: now of forty one President George Herbert Walker Bush licensed
Speaker 1: state in the Capitol Rotunda. We expect President Trump Malania
Speaker 1: to be actually going over in my hour nine o'clock,
Speaker 1: and so we'll cover that live. The media literally many
Speaker 1: of whom hated Reagan and Bush and bludging them. Oh,
Speaker 1: now he's the greatest thing in the world, because then
Speaker 1: they can go after Trump. I mean, it is as
Speaker 1: sick and twisted and ugly as you would imagine. Well,
Speaker 1: the latest on the borders and much more, nine Eastern tonight, Hannity,
Speaker 1: Fox News will see then. As always, thank you for
Speaker 1: being Willis
