Speaker 1: One year ago today was election Day. We're gonna take
Speaker 1: a trip down memory lane the president's historic speech thirty
Speaker 1: miles from the demilitarized on the d m Z in
Speaker 1: South Korea. I nobody in the media will give this
Speaker 1: president the credit that he had an amazing speech. We've
Speaker 1: got highlights, will examine it with Dr Sebastian Gorka will
Speaker 1: join us. We have amazing and breathtaking developments as it
Speaker 1: relates to the dossier and Uranium one and the fixes
Speaker 1: in with Clinton and Comey. Information you don't want to miss. Uh.
Speaker 1: We will talk to the chairman of the House Budget Committee,
Speaker 1: Congresswoman I Am Black today. Uh. It appears Republicans have
Speaker 1: abandoned any sense of Reagan supply side conservative economics for
Speaker 1: fear that they are going to be labeled oh tax,
Speaker 1: that they will be accused of supporting the rich. People
Speaker 1: well at the top pay nearly all the federal income taxes,
Speaker 1: so if you don't give them a tax CAU you
Speaker 1: give people tax credits, but that's full complete, pretty much redistribution,
Speaker 1: which kind of this bill does. It's great on the
Speaker 1: corporate side, corporate taxes, repatriation, the president's deregulation, and he's
Speaker 1: doing all of this on his own, opening up energy
Speaker 1: opportunities for everybody's millions of high paying energy jobs as
Speaker 1: we move towards energy independence, all of the above strategy.
Speaker 1: Uh So we'll get to all of that in the
Speaker 1: course of the program. Before we get started, I want
Speaker 1: to take you back a year ago, one year ago today,
Speaker 1: one year ago today, um in about two hours from now,
Speaker 1: the news media in this country got a document. Now
Speaker 1: it's really funny because I know there's a fact. The
Speaker 1: documents said. It was the exit polls from one year ago,
Speaker 1: and it basically said Trump got trounced in the sixteen election.
Speaker 1: Matter of fact, his former president friend of mine, Bill Shine,
Speaker 1: he actually saved it. And when he saw Donald Trump
Speaker 1: the next time, he showed it to him. These were
Speaker 1: the eggs of poles that night, and Trump wrote him,
Speaker 1: I won't say what was on the wrote on those
Speaker 1: papers a note to Bill and he has a part
Speaker 1: of history. Right. Pretty cool, smart an idea on Bill's part.
Speaker 1: But those exit polls come in about two hours from now,
Speaker 1: one full year, one year ago today, and everybody in
Speaker 1: the media is having an orgasm. They're collectively this is
Speaker 1: manna from heaven for them. Donald Trump lost the election,
Speaker 1: and he lost big. It had him losing in Florida,
Speaker 1: and had him losing in Ohio. It had him losing
Speaker 1: in North Carolina, in Pennsylvania and Michigan and Wisconsin, North Carolina.
Speaker 1: He lost everything. It was gonna be just a few
Speaker 1: state southern state win for Trump. Otherwise it's gonna be
Speaker 1: a Hillary Clinton was going to be the next president
Speaker 1: of the United States. That's what they believed. And anyway,
Speaker 1: I made a phone call the president then candidate at
Speaker 1: the time, had a cell phone, and I was lucky
Speaker 1: he actually picked up. And it was around five fifty.
Speaker 1: I took my first break, about five had to be
Speaker 1: And I said, in a few minutes, somebody's gonna come
Speaker 1: in at Trump Tower until you you lost the election
Speaker 1: based on the exit polling data. And I said, don't
Speaker 1: listen to them. It's a true story. And I said
Speaker 1: and and I told him the story about two thousand
Speaker 1: and four, when George Bush was running for a second term,
Speaker 1: and the eggs of polls came out five election Day
Speaker 1: two thousand and four, and it showed that George W.
Speaker 1: Bush had lost. John Kerry was going to be the
Speaker 1: next president. And at five thirty five, just as I
Speaker 1: was getting back from a break, the Vice President of
Speaker 1: the United it States at the time, Dick Cheney, called
Speaker 1: this radio program imploring people to still go out and vote.
Speaker 1: There's plenty of time to vote now. Last year, one
Speaker 1: year ago, at about five forty six or seven, I
Speaker 1: remember Donald Trump Junior called in and they were looking
Speaker 1: at numbers, particularly in Florida. For some reason, turnout in
Speaker 1: Southwest Florida and the Panhandle, normally conservative areas of Florida
Speaker 1: warrnt coming in. Anyway, I do what I always do
Speaker 1: on election days. Uh. The way it is is, basically
Speaker 1: Fox has the opinion program, they have their news programming,
Speaker 1: and they always invite me. But you know, I've been there,
Speaker 1: done that years prior. And basically I sit in a
Speaker 1: green room that's filled with a lot of people. I'm
Speaker 1: annoyed because I like to be alone, and I like
Speaker 1: to have my three computers in front of me, and
Speaker 1: I like to be watching TVs multiple and I hook
Speaker 1: him up especially just for this night, and I study,
Speaker 1: and I it's I become a wonk, and I become,
Speaker 1: you know, a geek. And I start, and I already
Speaker 1: have in front of me the years twelve and the
Speaker 1: times and what the percentages were in two thousand and
Speaker 1: eight and two thousand and four and two thousand, so
Speaker 1: I do my own studying and my own predicting of states.
Speaker 1: It wasn't long into the night when I began to
Speaker 1: realize as the polls began to close, and as the
Speaker 1: election results started coming in, and you look at I'll
Speaker 1: give you some examples key counties, Hamilton's County, Cuyahoga County,
Speaker 1: and and Ohio or Broward County and Palm Beach County
Speaker 1: in Florida and southwest Florida, the Panhandle. Wasn't long into
Speaker 1: the night and then I started comparing the numbers in
Speaker 1: North Carolina based on what Mitt Romney had done in
Speaker 1: two twelve. I began to see very early as the
Speaker 1: numbers were coming in. And remember we got to a
Speaker 1: point where Florida they got stuck at like pent of
Speaker 1: the vote in for a long time that night, and
Speaker 1: I said, they're stealing it. There's no reason for those numbers,
Speaker 1: because we were looking right down in the southeastern part
Speaker 1: of Florida and I'm thinking, here we go, how many
Speaker 1: votes do you need one of those situations. You don't
Speaker 1: think it can happen. Hillary rigged the primary. That's my
Speaker 1: only answer. And I was watching on that night. Everybody
Speaker 1: was giddy at the start of the night on every channel,
Speaker 1: giddy with happiness because they see the Egg. They can't
Speaker 1: tell you what they know completely, because that's not that
Speaker 1: you're not allowed to. You're only allowed to report certain
Speaker 1: things that the eggs a posal show. But they wouldn't give.
Speaker 1: By the way, the d J is demanding CNN sell
Speaker 1: that's interesting. That's very interesting. Actually anyway, that's on the
Speaker 1: Drudge Report. So anyway, the night starts unfolding and I
Speaker 1: keep and every election, for whatever reason, I would always
Speaker 1: send my data to Bill Shine. He is actually has
Speaker 1: years of elections emails for me where I would call
Speaker 1: the election way before anybody else, and that was the
Speaker 1: same this year. Anyway, at one point he calls me
Speaker 1: on the phone, get to that studio New Year house
Speaker 1: that we paid for, and I'm like, I'm not going
Speaker 1: to the studio near my house. I said, I've had
Speaker 1: a few beers. Number one, I can't drive. Number two,
Speaker 1: I'm in my sweatpants, a T shirt at my baseball
Speaker 1: all had on backwards and for me to get ready
Speaker 1: and changed by the time I get there. Forever, Ah,
Speaker 1: I told you you needed to be in this night.
Speaker 1: True story. I said, I don't come in election night
Speaker 1: because they don't use me and it wastes my time
Speaker 1: and I'm annoyed. I can't do what I like to
Speaker 1: do anyway. He says, call up this number now, and
Speaker 1: that was the control rule. I'm gonna play a little
Speaker 1: bit of that call. I think I was the only
Speaker 1: one showing a little bit of joy that night. And
Speaker 1: then I'm gonna play for you the media throughout the night,
Speaker 1: this is worth, this is And then tonight on TV,
Speaker 1: we're gonna do something amazing. I can't even tell you.
Speaker 1: And we have Steve. Steve Bannon is on the program tonight.
Speaker 1: You're just you're gonna want to watch tonight show. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's all I'm gonna say. You see, I give my
Speaker 1: ideas away. People steal them constantly. Nobody has a brain
Speaker 1: in their brain cell of the originality in their own head. Anyway,
Speaker 1: this is me calling into Fox as the night turned
Speaker 1: towards Donald Trump one year ago today. To me, this
Speaker 1: was predictable. But on the other hand, this is a
Speaker 1: a modern day political miracle. You're witnessing before your eyes
Speaker 1: right now. And that is to go up against everybody
Speaker 1: and all the pundits and all the posters and all
Speaker 1: the prognosticators out there and defy all the odds. And
Speaker 1: it's the American people that have said enough is enough.
Speaker 1: They're tired of the corruption, the test pool, draining, the swamp.
Speaker 1: All of these things were resonating. You know when you
Speaker 1: look at the state like Wisconsin, what are they saying?
Speaker 1: They want their jobs back. They want the labor participation
Speaker 1: rate to be lower. Uh, in other words, more people
Speaker 1: having jobs. Uh. They want America to be energy independent.
Speaker 1: They're tired of a horrible educational system. They're tired of
Speaker 1: Obamacare rates going through the roof. This is not complicated.
Speaker 1: What's happening now is not working. And these guys and
Speaker 1: Donald Trump has gone out there and the outworked Hillary Clinton,
Speaker 1: and he put forward a much better agenda and Americas
Speaker 1: that enough is enough. With failed policy. That's what a
Speaker 1: selection was about. Fundamentally, you know what drives the elections,
Speaker 1: peace and prosperity. America is not prosperous. America is not working.
Speaker 1: Hillary lied about her emails, lied about Thank god, she's corrupt,
Speaker 1: She's so dishonest. Look at the exit post tonight. And
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, you know, is Donald
Speaker 1: Trump like every other person or we've all flawed, if
Speaker 1: we all sinned and fallen short? Yeah. Um, And maybe
Speaker 1: he wasn't spending his entire life running for president, which
Speaker 1: is why he probably went on the Howard Stern Show.
Speaker 1: If if my plan is to run for president, I
Speaker 1: probably wouldn't go on Howard Show. Um. And with that said,
Speaker 1: Americans saw through that, and they saw a guy that
Speaker 1: was really successful and really had a dream that America
Speaker 1: could be a lot better. Look, we have nearly fifty
Speaker 1: million Americans in poverty, nearly fifty million Americans on food stamps,
Speaker 1: million Americans out of the labor force. These are millions
Speaker 1: of our fellow citizens that are suffering. Things are getting worse.
Speaker 1: This president is taken on more depth than every other
Speaker 1: president before him combined. And Americans are looking at their
Speaker 1: children and grandchildren and say this is immoral. This has
Speaker 1: to stop. And that is the reason why I felt
Speaker 1: confident coming into tonight that he had a very good chance,
Speaker 1: although a difficult path, as we've been following the news
Speaker 1: all night, and he was able to pull it off
Speaker 1: because the American people, deep down inside, they cut through
Speaker 1: the clutter, they cut through the noise, they cut through
Speaker 1: all the spin, and they said, we're not on the
Speaker 1: right path. You know when when Washington promises keep you doctor,
Speaker 1: keep your plan, and save twenty per family a year,
Speaker 1: and people lose their doctor's plans and a pan on
Speaker 1: average a year more, and then they're seeing increases next
Speaker 1: year of a you know what, they begin to realize
Speaker 1: they've been lied to. When they see a foreign policy
Speaker 1: where there's six the request before the Benghazi attack and
Speaker 1: our government did nothing. They say government's failing. When brave
Speaker 1: men and women fight, bleed and die in Boast the Ramadi, Fellujah,
Speaker 1: as Creed and and Baghdad, and then we pull out
Speaker 1: and create an opening for Isis, they say that's a failure.
Speaker 1: When you give a hundred and fifty billion dollars to
Speaker 1: the number one state sponsor of terror, that is a
Speaker 1: failure and on every objective measure. You know, thank god,
Speaker 1: the American people this is about one thing. They see
Speaker 1: that Washington is broken, and by the way, Republicans are
Speaker 1: just as guilty. Paul Ryan is not going to be
Speaker 1: the Speaker of the House in January. I was going
Speaker 1: to say that for my program tomorrow, he's not going
Speaker 1: to be the speaker his state. When for Donald Trump tonight,
Speaker 1: I mean, it's an amazing turn of events because the
Speaker 1: establishment on both sides, Republican and Democrats, have lost touch
Speaker 1: with the real lives of real Americans that are really suffering.
Speaker 1: And Donald Trump has now opened the door and said
Speaker 1: we're gonna fix it, and we're gonna turn that table over.
Speaker 1: And you know what, I wish him all the best
Speaker 1: because it's not gonna be easy because all the same
Speaker 1: people that opposed him in the lead up that tonight
Speaker 1: are going to be opposing him tomorrow. Wow, that statement
Speaker 1: turned out. I went on, how long did I go
Speaker 1: on for that night? Ten minutes? Are you sure? Ten minute?
Speaker 1: I went on ten minutes, and I think they didn't
Speaker 1: interrupt me barely once. Right, there was no reason too.
Speaker 1: I just went off and I think we captured it.
Speaker 1: And by the way, I'm more right than I thought
Speaker 1: about them. The same people opposing Trump opposing him today. Um, way,
Speaker 1: do you hear the media? Oh from that night, We've
Speaker 1: got the best montage. Oh it's great. Don't miss tonight's
Speaker 1: TV show. By the way, you see in this story
Speaker 1: on Charlie c and that's breaking. Yeah, but it's a
Speaker 1: real quick headline. Yeah, there's a there's a story coming
Speaker 1: out today that Charlie Sheen is actually the person that
Speaker 1: assaulted and raped Corey Haim, who was an actor at
Speaker 1: thirteen when he was nineteen. So it's pretty devastating news.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. And it's just everywhere now, Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1: And you know how I love hearing great American success
Speaker 1: stories and sharing them all with you. Well, our favorite
Speaker 1: T shirt, underwear sock company, Tommy John, Well that's one
Speaker 1: of them now. Tom Patterson grew up in a small
Speaker 1: town in South Dakota. After college, he had a successful career.
Speaker 1: He was selling medical devices on the West Coast, but
Speaker 1: he quickly became fed up with the ways undershirt kept
Speaker 1: coming untalked. So, despite having zero background in men's fashion whatsoever,
Speaker 1: Tom sketched up some designs for smarter undergarments now starting
Speaker 1: out of his apartment and growing Tommy John to the
Speaker 1: globally recognized company it is today. Well he achieved, tom
Speaker 1: did the American dream. Now of course there's super soft
Speaker 1: there undershirts guess what, they never come untucked. Plus all
Speaker 1: of Tommy John underwear is backed by the best pair
Speaker 1: You'll ever wear guarantee. Or it's free. Go to Tommy
Speaker 1: John dot com slash Hannity off your first order and
Speaker 1: Tommy will donate five of this month's sales from tom
Speaker 1: John dot com slash Hannity to the Honor Foundation to
Speaker 1: empower Navy seals who are now transitioning to civilian life.
Speaker 1: That's Tommy John dot com slash Hannity. All Right, A
Speaker 1: lot to get to today. Last night's election, the media
Speaker 1: is lying to you. I will get to that. Also,
Speaker 1: we've got the president's historic speech near the d m
Speaker 1: Z yesterday and incredible information on Fusion GPS. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: play the media from the night, not as long as
Speaker 1: some of my comments. Why don't we put on the
Speaker 1: entire ten minute call that I had on election night
Speaker 1: on Hannity. What's up on Hannity dot com I'll play
Speaker 1: the media at the bottom of the yard. This is
Speaker 1: this is this, this is now. I told you this
Speaker 1: was the tip of the Iceberg casting couch. Young girls, kids,
Speaker 1: they want to be in modeling, the music business, the
Speaker 1: movie business. Uh. It's all over the New York Post, Dailymail, Radar, online, National,
Speaker 1: It's everywhere. This story about Charlie Sheen being accused of
Speaker 1: sodomizing thirteen year old Corey Ham on the set of
Speaker 1: the movie Lucas. And they're reporting that who now the
Speaker 1: Ham is just recently Corey Hames. Sorry, I don't know
Speaker 1: these actors. I don't I don't know who they are. Uh.
Speaker 1: Corey Hame apparently was I never saw Lucas. Did you
Speaker 1: ever see Lucas? Okay? And he's now deceased. And he
Speaker 1: had told other people about he was allegedly raped as
Speaker 1: a miner. They were reporting by Sheen, who was nineteen
Speaker 1: at the time, that this kid was thirteen at the time. Quote.
Speaker 1: Ham told me he had sex with Sheen when they
Speaker 1: filmed Lucas. Another Braccio, former actor, Dominic Brascia. Uh, and
Speaker 1: he told me they smoked pot and had sex. And
Speaker 1: I don't even want to read it. Honestly, I just
Speaker 1: it's also a report that the New York District Attorney's
Speaker 1: office may be in dieding Harvey Weinstein for rape next week.
Speaker 1: And I told you at the time, this is the
Speaker 1: tip of the iceberg. All of that has been true. Now,
Speaker 1: Corey Feldman was in town last week. We have not
Speaker 1: aired the interview yet, but I did an interview with him.
Speaker 1: We had it once while the TV part I said,
Speaker 1: be in there, and we had him on radio. We
Speaker 1: had him on TV UM and what he said about pedophilia,
Speaker 1: he said, it is rampant in Hollywood, rampant and that
Speaker 1: had happened to him. And he apparently was best friends
Speaker 1: with Corey Haim And off the record, I knew this
Speaker 1: story was coming. He knew this story was coming, and
Speaker 1: I asked him about it privately, and UH, anyway, so
Speaker 1: I'll get you more details as it becomes available. UM
Speaker 1: all right. Also, we're gonna go line by line with
Speaker 1: the President's speech today. We've got Jay Sekulo was gonna
Speaker 1: weigh in Hillary. What the fix was in for everything?
Speaker 1: It was fixed was in for the primary, the fix
Speaker 1: was in for the general false Russian propaganda. The fix
Speaker 1: was in on the tarmac with Loretta Lynch. The fix
Speaker 1: was in with Comey changing the words and writing in
Speaker 1: an exoneration piece before you even investigated. We're gonna get
Speaker 1: into that with Jay Sekulo. Sebastian Gorko weighs in on
Speaker 1: this historic speech in South Korea last night, and we're
Speaker 1: gonna go over this budget that doesn't seem very conservative,
Speaker 1: Reagan asked with a Congresswoman Diane Black Donald Trump. Just
Speaker 1: last week he confirmed the National Review that he's again
Speaker 1: considering a run in two Do it who looking for North?
Speaker 1: You account? Fighting check? Now half of this country which
Speaker 1: doesn't want you to be president, but which body wants
Speaker 1: you to run? Donald Trump has been saying that he
Speaker 1: will run for president as a Republican, which is surprising
Speaker 1: since I just assumed he was running as a joke.
Speaker 1: That people think that Donald Trump is a clown. Donald
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is a clown. I mean, does anybody seriously
Speaker 1: think that Donald Trump is serious about running for president?
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, it ain't the clown. President Obama will go
Speaker 1: down as perhaps the worst president in the history of
Speaker 1: the United States. Exclamation point at real Donald Trump, at
Speaker 1: real Donald Trump. At least I will go down as
Speaker 1: a president. It's basically this is the beginning of the
Speaker 1: end for Trump, at the beginning of the end. The
Speaker 1: beginning of the end is probably starting of the beginning
Speaker 1: of the end for for Donald Trump. Donald, You're not
Speaker 1: gonna be able to insult your way to the presidency.
Speaker 1: The strongest person usually isn't the loudest one in the room.
Speaker 1: So right now we have Hillary is about seventy five
Speaker 1: or favorite, we have different person. Forecast looks Hillary lind
Speaker 1: up by double digits nationally, twelve points fifty eight full
Speaker 1: way race. Clinton leading in Florida, Clilton leading in North Carolina,
Speaker 1: Clinton leading in Ohio, Clinton leading in Nevada. I could
Speaker 1: go on and on and on. Uh. I continue to
Speaker 1: believe Mr Trump will not be president. And so right now,
Speaker 1: Mr Trump, to answer your call for political honesty, I
Speaker 1: just want to say, you're not going to be president.
Speaker 1: All right. It's been fun, it's been a great I
Speaker 1: love here, but come on, come on, bunny. We are
Speaker 1: a major projection. Right now, Donald Trump will tank Ohi's projects.
Speaker 1: Donald Trump will carry the state of Florida means win
Speaker 1: for Donald trumpel Donald Trump, while we project will win
Speaker 1: in Kentucky within Indiana with its eleven electoral vote, Wrestling, Virginia, Colba, Tennessee, Mississimply,
Speaker 1: South Carolina, Alabama, North Dakota pub with its three electoral votes,
Speaker 1: or South Dakota, Texas, Arkansas, Eleuisiana, the state of Montana
Speaker 1: or North Carolina, Georgia, Imo, Utah, Wisconsin, Arizona, Kansas with
Speaker 1: its six electoral votes, Nebraska with its crib elect World
Speaker 1: and Why with its three. Sorry to keep you waiting
Speaker 1: complicated business. A lot of people have laughed at me
Speaker 1: over the years. Now they're not laughing so much. I'll
Speaker 1: tell you wow. One year ago tonight, I actually suggested
Speaker 1: if Fox they rerun the whole night tonight. I really did.
Speaker 1: I said, wow, you just want a day off? Not no,
Speaker 1: I said it would. It would, people would watch, people
Speaker 1: would watch Big Time. I know I'd watch um you know,
Speaker 1: and here, well, it's perfect dovetail to you know. I
Speaker 1: got accused by the media of not talking about last
Speaker 1: night's election. I'm waiting the entire time. I was told, oh,
Speaker 1: the President is speaking exactly at nine, so okay. I
Speaker 1: had my monologue written and then I said, all right,
Speaker 1: if it's gonna be late, let us know, I'll go
Speaker 1: into my monologue and then this way, you know, we'll
Speaker 1: we'll deal with it. And also the breaking news about
Speaker 1: the election, everything that was, you know, that's what we do.
Speaker 1: The news people said you didn't cover the election six
Speaker 1: seconds and Andy six and I'm like, okay. For the
Speaker 1: first part, I kept hearing every minute in my ear,
Speaker 1: which is annoying when you're on TV and people talk
Speaker 1: in your ear. It's not like Laurence o'donnal annoying. I
Speaker 1: felt bad for him. I mean, you know who's with
Speaker 1: the hammer that that's frustrating. Especially my years are so
Speaker 1: sensitive after thirty years in radio anyway, so of course
Speaker 1: I was gonna get but we're doing waiting. I kept
Speaker 1: hearing any minute, any minute anyway, and finally, twenty minutes
Speaker 1: in the show outcomes Donald Trump speaking in South Korea,
Speaker 1: thirty miles from the demilitarizone and I'm like then he
Speaker 1: literally went to fifty seconds left in the show, and
Speaker 1: I handed the show off to Laura. That was it. Um.
Speaker 1: So anyway, Ed Gillespie's loss in Virginia, let me just
Speaker 1: point out, because they keep pointing to certain states, Donald
Speaker 1: Trump didn't win the Commonwealth of Virginia. He didn't win
Speaker 1: New Jersey, he didn't win New York. In New Jersey,
Speaker 1: all due respect to Governor Christie is like a two
Speaker 1: percent approval writing it's bad um. There was no chance
Speaker 1: that the lieutenant governor was gonna win Gillespie. Interestingly enough,
Speaker 1: he didn't let Donald Trump offer to go campaign for him.
Speaker 1: Also Steve Bannon, Steve Bannon won't be on Hannity tonight.
Speaker 1: He offered to go campaign for him at Gillespie's campaign declaim.
Speaker 1: You wuldn't even go on break Part radio. We couldn't
Speaker 1: get him on this program on Monday. We had him
Speaker 1: yesterday and I was like, okay, but the voting is
Speaker 1: almost over. They quote weren't available is they didn't want
Speaker 1: the news to go out Hannity. And he, with all
Speaker 1: due respect as an establishment guy, and he was trying
Speaker 1: to thread the needle, but it didn't work. And he
Speaker 1: never embraced the president and his agenda because everyone, oh,
Speaker 1: this is a bad Even Nate Silver, the the polling
Speaker 1: god of the left, if you will, even he's saying,
Speaker 1: with these victories in New Jersey and and Virginia last night,
Speaker 1: Democrats dancing in the aisle. There's no doubt winning is
Speaker 1: better than losing. That's a fair statement. But all these
Speaker 1: of wing pundit's out there counting their chickens before they
Speaker 1: had saying the Democrats have poised to take the House
Speaker 1: and twenty eighteen and Donald Trump is doomed, they're gonna
Speaker 1: impeach them. Well, that could very well work out, but
Speaker 1: that destiny is not in the hands of Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: The destiny of Republicans are now in their own hands,
Speaker 1: and right now they're literally hanging in the balance. Can
Speaker 1: they get the tax reform bill done? Can they event
Speaker 1: Can they do something next year on on better governance?
Speaker 1: Can they go back to the old Reagan principles? So far,
Speaker 1: when I look at what they're offering with this tax
Speaker 1: reform bill and raising taxes on the people that pay
Speaker 1: taxes and redistributing wealth on one side, they do a
Speaker 1: great job with the corporate side, a great job with repatriation.
Speaker 1: The President single handedly did a great job opening up
Speaker 1: energy in the country. This is gonna be up to
Speaker 1: the Republicans in the House and more specifically the Senate,
Speaker 1: and if they can't get their job done, they will lose.
Speaker 1: What did I just play in the last half hour.
Speaker 1: You don't keep your promises, keep your doctor if you
Speaker 1: plan pay less. Democrats lost, and if you look at
Speaker 1: Democratic losses over the years, they were spectacular. I'll explain
Speaker 1: all this tonight on TV so you know it's it
Speaker 1: is what it is. By the way, the new governor
Speaker 1: New Jersey wants to turn New Jersey into a sanctuary state. Great,
Speaker 1: can't wait. Uh, Chuck Schumer threatening to shut down the
Speaker 1: government unless Dreamers get amnesty. Not a lot of fights
Speaker 1: here for Republicans. But if you won't fight to keep
Speaker 1: your repeal replaced promise, and you're no longer Reagan supply
Speaker 1: side conservatives on the economy, and you want to raise
Speaker 1: taxes on the rich, well we can elect Democrats to
Speaker 1: do that for us. You're doing a good job on
Speaker 1: the corporate side, but they're afraid of of the class
Speaker 1: warfare rhetoric of Chuck Schumer. It's stupid, it's dumb, it
Speaker 1: makes no sense anyway. But if you look at the
Speaker 1: economy under President Trump, it's done extraordinarily well. I mean,
Speaker 1: I've given you these numbers, and you know the numbers
Speaker 1: speak for themselves. One million new jobs, seven year low,
Speaker 1: in uh food stand participation seven year high in terms
Speaker 1: of labor participation. You know, we now have National Association
Speaker 1: of Realtors houses are selling at the fastest pace in
Speaker 1: thirty years. Consumer Confidence Conference Board has it as a
Speaker 1: seventeen year high. Atlanta Fed Project projected a week ago
Speaker 1: that GDP growth for the fourth quarter will be four
Speaker 1: point five. I'd be stunning. Today we have literally a
Speaker 1: DP saying two hundred and thirty five thousand extra jobs
Speaker 1: on top of the million jobs created in October so far,
Speaker 1: it's a million plus jobs. The president because of what
Speaker 1: he did on his own alone. And you know, you
Speaker 1: look at for example, Black unemployment now is hit a
Speaker 1: seventeen year low, the lowest level since December two thousand.
Speaker 1: Same things when you break down other demographic the Hispanic
Speaker 1: the Latino community is doing much better with jobs, the
Speaker 1: Asian community, the country as a whole is doing better.
Speaker 1: And it's all because the president got rid of Obama
Speaker 1: error burdensome regulations. You have company after company wanted to
Speaker 1: bring their money back here. That's all. Donald Trump alone
Speaker 1: has nothing to do with the Republicans. They have yet
Speaker 1: to do anything. You know, I want to also get
Speaker 1: into We'll get into this with great detail. Um, we've
Speaker 1: got massive developments here as it relates to the Clinton
Speaker 1: House of cards is now beginning to crumble. What do
Speaker 1: we learn from Donna Brazil? She stole and rigged the
Speaker 1: Democratic Primary? What else she tried to rig and steal
Speaker 1: the general election from Donald Trump? How did she do that, Hannity? Well,
Speaker 1: she paid for Trump Russia, No Hillary Russia collusion. Hillary
Speaker 1: paid for the salacious, lying dossier that was filled with
Speaker 1: information that was full of lies, propaganda, misinformation, disinformation, and
Speaker 1: she literally and paid it both through her campaign and
Speaker 1: the DNC. But nobody knows where the money came from,
Speaker 1: and she held it through the same attorney, And they
Speaker 1: paid for the Russian lives. Well, I to influence the
Speaker 1: American people. Is one report out today that they may have,
Speaker 1: even meaning the Democrats, They may have actually been out
Speaker 1: there trying to pay through Fusion GPS. They might have
Speaker 1: been out there trying to pay off journalists to run
Speaker 1: with this crap. So you guess she steals the primary,
Speaker 1: tries to steal the general. The fix is in for both.
Speaker 1: She tries to fix the email server scandal with Comey
Speaker 1: writing an exoneration of that and even changing the language
Speaker 1: from the statutory language of gross negligence that happens, and
Speaker 1: then Lauretta Lynchin that tried to fix it through the
Speaker 1: tarmac uh meeting with Bill Clinton. I mean, it's unbelievable.
Speaker 1: Everything they do, they try and and fit. There's a
Speaker 1: bought and paid for dossier and then Uranium one the
Speaker 1: money kicked back. You know, we're learning so much. So anyway,
Speaker 1: we have a new report to keep Fusion GPS official
Speaker 1: that that's the company that they paid for the Russian
Speaker 1: dirt met with the Russian lawyer, remember the Russian lawyer
Speaker 1: Big deal media met with Donald Trump Trump Donald Trump
Speaker 1: Junior Trump Towers. Well, it turns out that the Hillary funded,
Speaker 1: bought and paid for Fusion GPS dossier official met with
Speaker 1: the Russian lawyer just before the Russian lawyer sat down
Speaker 1: a Trump Tower with Donald Trump Jr. And then guess
Speaker 1: what they met after the meeting. Well, that sounds like
Speaker 1: a set up to me. Then you've got Donna Brazil.
Speaker 1: She was told she didn't need to know about the
Speaker 1: d n C funding the fake news anti Trump Russian dossier.
Speaker 1: And on top of that we got now Judicial Watch
Speaker 1: is literally suing the Department of Justice to find out
Speaker 1: if former FBI Director Comey coordinated with special counsel Robert Mueller,
Speaker 1: who he leaked to The New York Times to get
Speaker 1: the special counsel before Comey testified before Congress. Then we've
Speaker 1: got John Solomon's report that is out there, and he's
Speaker 1: now reporting that an early draft of Comey's announcement exonerating
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton accused her of gross negligence, or at least
Speaker 1: gross negligence. Well, that is the legal definition of a felony.
Speaker 1: And there were three iterations of this, and three times
Speaker 1: they put it out with gross negligence, and somebody picked up, Oh,
Speaker 1: that's what the statutory languages. That means. What's saying she's
Speaker 1: guilty of a felony, will change it to extreme carelessness.
Speaker 1: And then that means Comey's original memos said Clinton had
Speaker 1: broken the law, should have been prosecuted. I mean, in
Speaker 1: remember she he went along with Loretta Lynch. Oh, it's
Speaker 1: a matter, it's not an investigation, is a matter. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's all, um, pretty unbelievable tonight. The Clinton's they operate
Speaker 1: under their own set of rules. We don't have equal
Speaker 1: justice under the law. The fix was in. The primary
Speaker 1: fix was in Bernie Sanders went along with the lie.
Speaker 1: The fix was in when she colluded with Russia, dishing
Speaker 1: out millions for fake news of Russian dossier filled the lines.
Speaker 1: The fixes in James Comey's memos saying Clinton was gross
Speaker 1: grossly negligent. Don't worry, he was exonerating her before even
Speaker 1: investigating her. The fix was in the tarmac meeting with
Speaker 1: Bill Clinton Laurettilent. The fix was in. You know, we're
Speaker 1: really supposed to believe that they talked for forty five
Speaker 1: minutes about grandkids. It's just as bull loney bologny anyway.
Speaker 1: And of course you've got all of this Bill Clinton
Speaker 1: double and his speaking fees, the kickbacks to the Clinton Foundation.
Speaker 1: We don't have enough uranium in this country at all.
Speaker 1: We have to import uranium. But yet Vladimir Putin, Muller
Speaker 1: and Eric calder knew in two thousand and nine the
Speaker 1: Putin thugs were in this country and that they were
Speaker 1: involved in kickbacks and extortion and bribery and money laundering
Speaker 1: and racketeering. And Mueller knew it, and Eric calder knew it.
Speaker 1: A lot of people knew it. Uh and and and
Speaker 1: that's only a small portion of this. But the Fusion
Speaker 1: GPS of official meet meeting with the Russian operative before
Speaker 1: and after the Trump junior sit down. The Fusion GPS
Speaker 1: officials mentioned in the report that the firm's co founder,
Speaker 1: Glenn Simpson and the Russian lawyer, and that they know
Speaker 1: that Hillary Clinton the d n C shelled out the
Speaker 1: money for this. This is beyond outrageous. By the way,
Speaker 1: Ram Paul says, I appreciate all the support from everyone.
Speaker 1: In a medical update, final report indicates six broken ribs.
Speaker 1: New X ray shows a plural of fusion floral fusion.
Speaker 1: By the way, it's like an unusual amount of fluid
Speaker 1: around the lung in case you're interested, Not exactly a doctor,
Speaker 1: but I had sisters that were nurses and a brother
Speaker 1: in law that's a doctor. That's where I picked up
Speaker 1: all my medical knowledge. Linda's impressed. Aren't shocked on you
Speaker 1: didn't know I knew that? Did you tell you? You're
Speaker 1: just a man of wonder. I do have the list
Speaker 1: of celebrities that have said they will leave the US
Speaker 1: of Trump won um. Let's see Miley Cyrus, share, John Stewart,
Speaker 1: Al Sharpton George Lopez, Samuel Jackson, just a few that
Speaker 1: it threatened, who said they supported Hillary they'd leave if
Speaker 1: Trump won. My offer stands. Got a plane, Champagne caviare
Speaker 1: to which you've all grown accustomed and uh, but you
Speaker 1: have to make a promise you'll never come back. By
Speaker 1: the way. Tom broke aw attacking Donna Brazil, calling the
Speaker 1: revelations beyond counter productive. But there's no don't worry about it.
Speaker 1: A bunch of lies. Glenn Greenwald writes about the Clinton
Speaker 1: d n C agreement cited by Donna Brazil only applied
Speaker 1: to the general election, not the primary. No, that was
Speaker 1: a lie. He points out, uh many other lies as well.
Speaker 1: Line number two, Sanders signed the same agreement with the
Speaker 1: d n C is Clinton. That's a lie. Brazil stupidly
Speaker 1: thought she could unilaterally remove her as the nominee. That's
Speaker 1: a lie. To and evidence emerged proving the content of
Speaker 1: Wiki League's documents and emails were doctored. That's another lie.
Speaker 1: The media is telling you. I set at the table.
Speaker 1: I want to make run father. This is at the table.
Speaker 1: But you gotta into the room knowing that you've got
Speaker 1: to change the recipe. Yesterday I was a wake up
Speaker 1: health for the Democrats too, because you know what it's
Speaker 1: coming from the bottom up. So we learned this week
Speaker 1: that former Trump foreign policy advisor George Popadappo has traveled
Speaker 1: to London in March two thousand and sixteen, and then
Speaker 1: in April he met with a professor who promised dirt
Speaker 1: on Hillary Clinton from the Russians. Have you seen any
Speaker 1: evidence that this dirt these emails were ever given to
Speaker 1: the Trump campaign? Not so far, not so far. Have
Speaker 1: you ever seen have you seen any communications, uh, that
Speaker 1: suggested that the Trump campaign wanted them to release them
Speaker 1: through a different means, because obviously they were ultimately released
Speaker 1: by Wicki Alright, that Senator Diane finds a year later
Speaker 1: now Trump Russia collusion and we've got no evidence. We
Speaker 1: have studying new revelations in these developing scandals surrounding Hillary Clinton,
Speaker 1: and a new report about a fusion GPS official meeting
Speaker 1: with the Russian lawyer before and after her sit down
Speaker 1: with Donald Trump Jr. That sounds like us set up
Speaker 1: to me. And then we've got all the comments we
Speaker 1: played earlier former interim d n C chair Donna Brazil
Speaker 1: saying she was told she didn't need to know about
Speaker 1: Clinton and the d n C funding of the fake news,
Speaker 1: phony Russian dossier as they were trying to basically Hillary
Speaker 1: Clinton Boughton and paid for to influence an election here
Speaker 1: in this country. Jay Secular is with US Chief Council
Speaker 1: American Center for Law and Justice and also Counsel to
Speaker 1: the President. I don't know where you want to start,
Speaker 1: but let's start with this, the fact, the admission that
Speaker 1: the primary election was actually rigged and Donald Trump was right.
Speaker 1: And I see everybody in the Democratic Party say, oh,
Speaker 1: that's not a big deal. Well why go over something
Speaker 1: like that? And I'm thinking, you rig an election, you
Speaker 1: take over the d n C, you have a private
Speaker 1: deal with the d n C, you have all of
Speaker 1: the super delegates lined up, you have the Bernie campaign,
Speaker 1: couldn't win for losing people disenfranchised. That seems like a
Speaker 1: big deal to me. J. Succulo, Well, I mean it
Speaker 1: was just just the whole thing cuts again, it's the
Speaker 1: narrative of what they were saying with their open and
Speaker 1: transparent process. So what you got now in Donna Brazil's book,
Speaker 1: which it lays out in in in great detail exactly
Speaker 1: what was going on and what she inherited when she
Speaker 1: took over the d n C, which was not only
Speaker 1: the fact that there was a control mechanism in place,
Speaker 1: uh clearly aimed against Bernie Sanders, but that the the
Speaker 1: as you said, the deck was not only stacked against
Speaker 1: his campaign, but there was really no way in which
Speaker 1: anybody could have kind of bridged through or or pierced
Speaker 1: that that that armor because of the way they had
Speaker 1: it set up and structured. So, um, I know, I
Speaker 1: hear a lot of friends of mine on the left
Speaker 1: and and and people that work in Democratic campaign saying
Speaker 1: that you know, saying, well, this may be overstated, and
Speaker 1: but the fact of the matter, she was the dance,
Speaker 1: She was the head of the she was the head
Speaker 1: I mean, she was the chairman of the Democratic National
Speaker 1: Committee for that period of time. So if there's anybody
Speaker 1: would know it would think would be down to Brazil.
Speaker 1: So I know, they don't want that narrative change, and
Speaker 1: it kind of goes like the Fusion GPS. They don't
Speaker 1: like the new narrative on that that that was being
Speaker 1: funded by them or the Hillary campaign, or the fact
Speaker 1: that this Fusion GPS meeting took place with the lawyer
Speaker 1: that ultimately met with Russian lawyer. The Russian lawyer met
Speaker 1: with him before the Don Junior meeting, met with him
Speaker 1: after the Don Junior meeting. We know E's Fusion GPS
Speaker 1: was the one putting this whole thing together, so obviously
Speaker 1: the sunlight here has not helped them. All. Right, let's
Speaker 1: go through this. We had a rig primary election. We've
Speaker 1: got now bought and paid for Russian Lives propaganda, misinformation,
Speaker 1: disinformation that was to rig the general election. Hillary bought
Speaker 1: and paid for all of that that funding. Then you've
Speaker 1: got Fusion GPS actually meeting the lawyer before and after
Speaker 1: the lawyer sits down with Don jr. Um. You have
Speaker 1: the fix in with Comey because he had written her
Speaker 1: exoneration before he even did the investigation. Then you've got
Speaker 1: the fix in with Loretta Lynch and the tarmac seems
Speaker 1: like and and you've got so many fixes here. And
Speaker 1: then you got Diane Feinstein saying after one year, as
Speaker 1: you just said, nothing he should. I mean, I think
Speaker 1: Jake Tapper was surprised at her response. Have you seen
Speaker 1: anything of evidence of collusion? But I have. I have
Speaker 1: a three minute montage of everybody over the whole year
Speaker 1: saying there's smoke, there's smoke, there's smoke, there's no fire. Yeah. Well,
Speaker 1: I mean I had a conversation with the reporter yesterday,
Speaker 1: and you know the conversation was, you know what about collusion.
Speaker 1: First of all, I keep going back to this fundamental point. Well,
Speaker 1: someone point me to the statute that actually codifies whatever
Speaker 1: collusion is. Whatever the media is saying is that that's
Speaker 1: a violation of a law. And by the way, there's
Speaker 1: no evidence of quote collusion, but there's also no statute
Speaker 1: and that involves collusion. So this is a lot of
Speaker 1: this is is is created by the media because the
Speaker 1: word collusion sounds like, you know, it has to be
Speaker 1: a bad word, it has to be illegal because it
Speaker 1: says collusion. So there's no statute on colusion. I've been
Speaker 1: saying that for for you know, six months. But now
Speaker 1: you've got the Democratic leadership with Dan Feinstein saying even
Speaker 1: with that undefined word, she's seen no evidence of it.
Speaker 1: A j I won't play it now because it's three minutes,
Speaker 1: but I have the following people, James Comey, James Clapper,
Speaker 1: Maxine Waters, Diane Feinstein, Joe Manchin, John Brennan, Adam Schiff,
Speaker 1: j Johnson have all said the same thing. There's no
Speaker 1: evidence of Trump Russia collusion. There's smoke, but there's no fire.
Speaker 1: We've heard it now for a year. But we do
Speaker 1: have a bought and paid for dossier full of lies,
Speaker 1: salacious lies, that was paid for by Hillary Clinton in
Speaker 1: the d n C that she was running her money
Speaker 1: over ten million dollars and that was paid for Russian
Speaker 1: lies to basically influence the American people so they could
Speaker 1: win the election. And and a dossier that was held
Speaker 1: over the head or attempted to being held over the
Speaker 1: head of the then President elect of the United States,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, by no one other than James Comey, the
Speaker 1: then current FBI director, who says in a private meeting
Speaker 1: at Trump Tower that uh, you know, hey, we've got
Speaker 1: this dossier and you just need to know about it.
Speaker 1: And it was like it was a jager who remove
Speaker 1: And we've said that before. So now we know that
Speaker 1: the involvement with this dossie may have well included the
Speaker 1: FBI or they either they had paid for portions of
Speaker 1: it or we're considering paying for portions of these. But
Speaker 1: but the salacious details were leaked. It was regurgitated, it
Speaker 1: was repeated. There was a Rowan Scarborough piece that actually
Speaker 1: suggested that Fusion GPS may have actually paid media people
Speaker 1: to run with these lies. Well, hopefully we'll get to
Speaker 1: the bottom of that. But here's a question I have.
Speaker 1: Is there any chance because John Solomon and Sarah Carter
Speaker 1: first broke the story that there were warrants of Trump Tower,
Speaker 1: there was surveillance of Trump Tower. Well, I mean, well,
Speaker 1: here's my question. Did they use the did they use
Speaker 1: the phony Russian dossier information, the lines that she paid
Speaker 1: for as a predicate or premise and go and use
Speaker 1: those lines before a judge to get a warrant? And
Speaker 1: if they did, what would happen? So this is this
Speaker 1: is obviously the most critical question, and the and and
Speaker 1: the legal issue presented would be this was the dossier
Speaker 1: a basis upon which a fiz of warrant? Was this
Speaker 1: from a FISA court? And if it was in fact
Speaker 1: issued based on this dossier, was it disclosed to the
Speaker 1: court the nature, content scope? And who paid for this
Speaker 1: dossier when the court? If that's what the masis was,
Speaker 1: that's doubtful because up until because for a year they've
Speaker 1: been saying they didn't pay for it exactly so. But
Speaker 1: but if it was the basis upon which FISA warrants
Speaker 1: were issued, I think there is a serious legal issue
Speaker 1: for those that engaged in obtaining the warrant, and of
Speaker 1: course finding out what information was given. And I hope
Speaker 1: that the House and Senate will conduct oversight and the
Speaker 1: and the likely render it inadmissible in a court of law.
Speaker 1: I would file motions. Look, there's no question I would
Speaker 1: fild motions to suppress that if there's any evidence on that.
Speaker 1: If I was a lawyer representing a party affected by it,
Speaker 1: would there be a record of the arguments that were
Speaker 1: made to obtain the warrant. So even in a FIZER proceeding,
Speaker 1: they have records, it's just not the records available to
Speaker 1: the public, is my understanding. They would have to be
Speaker 1: made available to any defendant. Well, yeah, I mean, if
Speaker 1: you've got exculpatition issues or the issue of in this
Speaker 1: particular case, emotion less say emotion to suppress, Yeah, I
Speaker 1: would say the government would be compelled or the court
Speaker 1: would would have to issue the order upon which it
Speaker 1: based its information on it was get the information upon
Speaker 1: which it issued the order. I think that would be paramount.
Speaker 1: What do you make of the new report that the
Speaker 1: key Fusion GPS official meeting with this Russian lawyer both
Speaker 1: before and after the Russian lawyer meets with Donald Trump
Speaker 1: Junior and what turned out to be a nothing meeting,
Speaker 1: right was a complete set up. So now we know,
Speaker 1: if this information is correct, We now know that Fusion
Speaker 1: GPS leadership meets with the Russian lawyer they were working
Speaker 1: with the same for law firm that Fusion GPS had utilized.
Speaker 1: They meet with Donald Trump Junior on a pretense nothing
Speaker 1: happens in the meeting, and then they subsequently debriefer after
Speaker 1: the meeting. So you tell me what that means. I
Speaker 1: think that I think it makes that well. I never
Speaker 1: thought there was nothing in the in the entire Donald
Speaker 1: Trump Junior meeting. There was no in my view, no
Speaker 1: legal illegality issue there in having the meeting. What is
Speaker 1: interesting now is we now the backstory of how these
Speaker 1: meetings apparently have been created, and that is raising more
Speaker 1: legal issues, frankly than the meetings themselves. Let me ask you,
Speaker 1: in two thousand and nine, we now know in retrospect
Speaker 1: that Vladimir Putin had agents within the United States. They
Speaker 1: were using bribery, extortion, money laundering, kickbacks, and racketeering as
Speaker 1: a means of trying to get into the US uranium market. Now,
Speaker 1: number one, we have to import uranium. We don't have
Speaker 1: enough uranium as a country that we that meets our
Speaker 1: own needs. So then the FBI director at the time
Speaker 1: was Mueller. The Attorney General was Eric Holder. At the time,
Speaker 1: Holder was one of the nine like Hillary that signed
Speaker 1: off on the uranium one deal. But how is it
Speaker 1: possible that they knew in two thousand and nine, did nothing?
Speaker 1: And how can anybody investigate Russia if this? Yeah, this
Speaker 1: is the what I call that, This goes to the
Speaker 1: realm of not believable. So the FBI is aware of
Speaker 1: this whole operation going on, right with this Ussian inspiring
Speaker 1: they don't bring charges. They're aware of it in two
Speaker 1: thousand only to one person, and they bury it. Right. Then,
Speaker 1: the question is you have the uranium one meaning where
Speaker 1: the nine signators signed off on it. It asked you
Speaker 1: gotta ask this question, what did those signators? What did
Speaker 1: those heads of those departments actually know when that took place?
Speaker 1: Were they informed by the FBI? There was an ongoing
Speaker 1: investigation about Russian spying and interference or were they not?
Speaker 1: And I think those are I mean, we know Congressman
Speaker 1: wants the answer, but I think that that needs to
Speaker 1: be Look that that is an issue that needs to
Speaker 1: be investigated fully. We need we do, we do need
Speaker 1: special counsel just for Hillary and all these issues. Here's
Speaker 1: here's the difficult issue. You know, I'm not as you know,
Speaker 1: I'm not a fan of special counsel. So the question
Speaker 1: you ask yourself into the appointment of a special counsel.
Speaker 1: Is this something that the FBI or the Department of
Speaker 1: Justice is so recused from or so conflicted that they
Speaker 1: could not investigate it? Uh? And that well they can
Speaker 1: if that, if that is the standard, then we all
Speaker 1: know that that they were involved because the FBI informant
Speaker 1: who had pet traded this putin ring has documents and
Speaker 1: emails and tape recordings and firsthand experience. Yeah. Again, Look,
Speaker 1: I think it's a fact based determination made by the
Speaker 1: Department of Justice whether that the whether they can conduct
Speaker 1: the investigation themselves. I want to ask you about the
Speaker 1: FBI Director James Comey changing the words gross negligence to
Speaker 1: extreme carelessness. Send you more with j secular right as
Speaker 1: we continue j Secular Chief Council, American Center for Law
Speaker 1: and Justice, also Counsel to the President. All right, So
Speaker 1: going over all these different things, the John Solomon Report
Speaker 1: that showed that one of the early drafts, as a
Speaker 1: matter of fact, numerous I think there are at least
Speaker 1: three of them. Of the former FBI director James Comey
Speaker 1: and his announcement exonerating Hillary, Well, there's a couple of
Speaker 1: things we learned. Number one, he's exonerating her and preparing
Speaker 1: a document to exonerate her when in fact he hadn't
Speaker 1: done the investigation. He had an interviewed key people involved
Speaker 1: in the investigation. He used the legal term, which is
Speaker 1: the legal standard of gross negligence, that showed up in
Speaker 1: numerous drafts, but in the final draft it was removed
Speaker 1: to extreme carelessness. What is your take on all of that?
Speaker 1: First of all, how do you finish up an investigation
Speaker 1: when you have sixteen witnesses to go, some of which
Speaker 1: you granted immunity to, when you're already writing the declination letter.
Speaker 1: So I've raised that issue with you and others. I
Speaker 1: mean it it makes you had witnesses that were granted
Speaker 1: immunity from prosecution, that the and that means the FBI
Speaker 1: and the Department Justice was so valuable that even if
Speaker 1: these individuals had committed a crime themselves, they would be
Speaker 1: absolved with that crime and not prosecuted because their testimony
Speaker 1: could be that important. But yet the FBI directors writing
Speaker 1: his declination letter before those interviews take place. That's one
Speaker 1: besides the fact that the candidate herself, Hillary Clinton, hadn't
Speaker 1: been interviewed yet. Okay, put all that aside. Then, so
Speaker 1: you've got the immunity issue. Then you got the standard
Speaker 1: of criminality, and gross negligence, of course, is the statutory
Speaker 1: framework upon which the charge would have been brought. So someone,
Speaker 1: in my guess is someone in the review of the
Speaker 1: probably multiple drafts of this document. Sean said, um, let's
Speaker 1: not use that term, because everybody's going to say, well,
Speaker 1: if it was gross negligence, that's a violation of the statue,
Speaker 1: because that is the level of intent required under the
Speaker 1: statute that could have been brought for the prosecution. So
Speaker 1: let's not use that. Let's use extremely careless, extreme carelessness, which,
Speaker 1: by the way, definition is gross negligence. He said when
Speaker 1: he exonerated her, that this had been an investigation. But
Speaker 1: then when he testified, he said Loretta Lynch asked him
Speaker 1: to change. Yeah, he said, don't call it an investigation,
Speaker 1: which was Here's my argument. Now we know the fix
Speaker 1: was in as it relates to the Democratic primary. Now
Speaker 1: we know Hillary, you know, bought and paid for Russian
Speaker 1: lies and propaganda. She tried to have the fix in
Speaker 1: with that phony Salaoustasier. You know the fix was in
Speaker 1: with James come here as it relates to he's exonerating
Speaker 1: her before investigating and taking all the language talking points
Speaker 1: from Hillary's campaign. The fix was in when Bill Clinton
Speaker 1: meets unethically with Loretta Lynch just days before Loretta Lynch
Speaker 1: is gonna make her decision. So it seems to me
Speaker 1: that when you're talking about the Clintons, there's a lot
Speaker 1: of fixed is in here. And yet a year later,
Speaker 1: as I mentioned earlier, I have on tape multiple times
Speaker 1: Diane Feinstein and James Colemey and James Clapper and Maxine
Speaker 1: Waters and Joe Mansion and John Brennan and Adam Ship
Speaker 1: and j Johnson all saying no evidence of Trump Russia collusion.
Speaker 1: But we're still investigating that, and we're not investigating any
Speaker 1: of this, and Paul Mattafford's indictment had nothing to do
Speaker 1: with Russia, nothing to do with the campaign, nothing to
Speaker 1: do with Donald Trump. Right. In fact, that investigation looks
Speaker 1: like it was a previous investigation that was already ongoing
Speaker 1: with regard to foreign agent registration and some of these
Speaker 1: offshore accounts. So you look at it and now again,
Speaker 1: could there be investigations going? There could be. You don't
Speaker 1: necessarily know that there are. I have no knowledge that
Speaker 1: there are, but there could be. But it does raise
Speaker 1: the question, which is the unavoidable question, is what is
Speaker 1: the standard upon which this Department of Justice makes an
Speaker 1: inquise an inquiry? When did they start a investigation? I
Speaker 1: mean calling you calling an investigation, calling investigating the map
Speaker 1: or I don't really care what phrase you use. But
Speaker 1: the question is when does what's the threshold for the
Speaker 1: current Department of Justice to engage in investigations if there
Speaker 1: is the potential for violations of the law. And I think, Sean,
Speaker 1: that we don't know. I mean to be blunt, I
Speaker 1: don't know the answer to what that is under the
Speaker 1: current Department of Justice. All Right, we gotta leave it there.
Speaker 1: J Secular amazing insight and uh, you're an amazing attorney.
Speaker 1: We really appreciate it. Eight ninefold one Seawan Toldfrey telephone number.
Speaker 1: You want to be a part of the program. Now
Speaker 1: look what happened in New Jersey and all right, that's
Speaker 1: not all that's in the news today. The President gave
Speaker 1: a courageous, historic speech last night and laid down a gauntlet.
Speaker 1: We'll get to that with Dr Gorka next three. Some
Speaker 1: of the critiques coming from the right, and give you
Speaker 1: a chance to reply. They say that there's a hidden
Speaker 1: new tax bracket that people some people will actually pay
Speaker 1: more taxes. They're worried about the mortgage interest deduction going down. Um,
Speaker 1: they're worried about the adoption tax credit potentially going away.
Speaker 1: And these are things they say. They points the middle
Speaker 1: class and say that's not going to benefit them. Shannon,
Speaker 1: This this really is a work in progress. But a
Speaker 1: lot of these other issues, that homeowners deductions, state and
Speaker 1: local taxes, these are a subject of a very healthy
Speaker 1: debate in the Congress. We're going to continue to work
Speaker 1: in a way that make sure that that working families,
Speaker 1: middle class Americans benefit from this tax cut, and that
Speaker 1: that we create the kind of framework for reform that
Speaker 1: really caused this economy to take off even more than
Speaker 1: it has already. Well, let me ask you about Obamacare,
Speaker 1: because some Republicans are saying that as part of tax reform,
Speaker 1: there's a discussion about repealing the Obamacare individual mandate, which
Speaker 1: would save about four hundred billion dollars. That take it
Speaker 1: away from the depth site is not on the table.
Speaker 1: We have an active conversation with our members that a
Speaker 1: whole host of ideas on things to add to this bill,
Speaker 1: and that's one of the things that's being discussed. You say,
Speaker 1: it's being discussed, so there is a possibility the House
Speaker 1: could pass as part of tax reform doing away with again,
Speaker 1: we're we're listening to members about what we can do
Speaker 1: to add to this bill to make it even better.
Speaker 1: So that's among the ideas that a lot of members
Speaker 1: are suggesting that we could add to this bill to
Speaker 1: make it even better. But it's on the table for
Speaker 1: this tax reform bill. It's one of the things that
Speaker 1: people have been suggesting. That's what I'm saying. Schumer says
Speaker 1: that you take away seventy percent of the state and
Speaker 1: local deduction, and he points out that one third of
Speaker 1: the taxpayers claimed that he says, you're taking away almost
Speaker 1: three quarters with the value. Yes, So here's what we're doing.
Speaker 1: You see this postcard. This is this is literally the
Speaker 1: kind of tax form that nine out of ten taxers
Speaker 1: will be able to use. Right now, about don't itemize.
Speaker 1: By doubling the standard deduction, we're making it still that
Speaker 1: people don't have to outemize their deductions. So instead of
Speaker 1: having the first twelve thou dollars that you don't pay
Speaker 1: tax on, it will be the first dollars for a
Speaker 1: couple you don't pay your tax on. And we're lowering
Speaker 1: people's tax rates. The difference here is we're basically saying,
Speaker 1: instead of using a tax deduction to lower your tax rate,
Speaker 1: lower tax liability, we're just gonna make it easier if
Speaker 1: you don't pay taxes in the first play. But this
Speaker 1: is a clear middle class tax got no two ways
Speaker 1: about it, even for people in those high tech states.
Speaker 1: All right, there's the Mike Pence, the Vice president, and
Speaker 1: he's talking about the Republican UH tax bill, and of
Speaker 1: course then you hear from Paul ryan Um before we
Speaker 1: get to the things that I have questions on, And
Speaker 1: there were many of them as it relates to this bill. Um,
Speaker 1: I'm giving props the President now as a result of
Speaker 1: him just ending you know, excessive Obama era regulations, burdensome regulations.
Speaker 1: We've had a significant increase in the economy. Of course,
Speaker 1: we know all about the stock markets of what fifties
Speaker 1: or some astronomical number. Uh. We have a million plus
Speaker 1: new jobs now, a seven year low in food stamp
Speaker 1: usage of people, seven year high in terms of labor
Speaker 1: participation rate. The National Association of Realtors reported houses are
Speaker 1: now selling at their fastest pace in thirty years. The
Speaker 1: Conference Board reported consumer camp evidence is at a seventeen
Speaker 1: year high. We have the Atlanta Fed is now projected
Speaker 1: that the GDP growth for the fourth quarters four point
Speaker 1: five percent. Unemployment now at the lowest level has been
Speaker 1: in I believe, twenty years, and we have job cuts
Speaker 1: that have now hit their lowest levels in two decades.
Speaker 1: And that's all happening before Congress has done a thing.
Speaker 1: A DP said. The economy added two hundred and thirty
Speaker 1: five thousand jobs in October. The Washington Post excoriated Democrats
Speaker 1: for pinocchios for stop lying about this is a tax
Speaker 1: cut for the rich because it's not black. Unemployment in
Speaker 1: the country since the President has taken office has now
Speaker 1: hit a seventeen year low, and same with other demographic groups,
Speaker 1: the Latin community, Latin Americans, Hispanic Americans, and also Asian Americans.
Speaker 1: They're seeing now this is the lowest level in the
Speaker 1: Black community since December two thousand and the President is
Speaker 1: apparently preparing executive orders to end the bomb Acare mandate.
Speaker 1: On the downside, you've got this Republican so called hidden tax,
Speaker 1: which I'll get to in just a minute. Percent joining
Speaker 1: us to go over a lot of this is is
Speaker 1: Chairman Congresswoman Diane Black. Oh, here he goes, he's bringing
Speaker 1: me on. How are you, Congresswoman? Yes, hello, how are
Speaker 1: you today? I'm good. You're the chairman, you're the chairman
Speaker 1: of the House Budget Committee. I want to discuss a
Speaker 1: lot of this with you. How are you. I'm good.
Speaker 1: I'm good. We were in markup today. Of course, for
Speaker 1: your listeners, they may not know what that means, but
Speaker 1: it's an opportunity to be able to add a minutes
Speaker 1: to the bill. So we're doing that and a lot
Speaker 1: of discussion, a lot of moving parts today. All right,
Speaker 1: That's where I think we want to go over a
Speaker 1: lot of this here, because look, as I have said
Speaker 1: on the air, corporate rate win, that's a win for
Speaker 1: the American people, the forgotten men and women, the repatriation,
Speaker 1: that's a win for the American people. I do worry
Speaker 1: about the home mortgage deduction. I do worry about the
Speaker 1: top rate stay exactly the same. But you might even
Speaker 1: if you're paying a lower rate, you pay more money
Speaker 1: because you're not no longer if you live in New
Speaker 1: York like I do in New Jersey or California or Illinois,
Speaker 1: if you can't make a deduction to your state and
Speaker 1: local of income taxes in the states teen percent of
Speaker 1: New York. Uh, that means I'll be paying a net
Speaker 1: increase in taxes. Pretty dramatic. Actually, what's your reaction? Yes, well,
Speaker 1: Sean UM, let's just talk about what our goal was
Speaker 1: for this tax reformat. The goal was to make sure
Speaker 1: that especially the lower income in the middle income really
Speaker 1: get a relief, because that's where they need the biggest relief.
Speaker 1: The second part of that is to get the economy moving.
Speaker 1: And we want to get the economy moving by allowing
Speaker 1: UM companies to be able to have an opportunity to
Speaker 1: create more jobs, um to be able to put more
Speaker 1: capital into their business, which we are we know create
Speaker 1: more jobs. To me, you did talk about what occurs
Speaker 1: right now with just the excitement of what's in the
Speaker 1: in the business industry out there's a going to be
Speaker 1: more money for our job creators to be able to
Speaker 1: put into their own business, and so growing those jobs
Speaker 1: really does help, uh the everyday middle income person. As
Speaker 1: a matter of fact, we see that through this. Uh.
Speaker 1: Someone let's just say, making sixty dollars a year, and
Speaker 1: I know you live in a in a state that
Speaker 1: maybe that's not the average income, but that's a middle
Speaker 1: income for most parts of the country. They're going to
Speaker 1: receive about a tax uh cups on that, and for them,
Speaker 1: that means I'm all for that. I want, I want,
Speaker 1: and I think the corporate tax cut, repatriation money, and
Speaker 1: what the President frankly has done with energy and we
Speaker 1: really pushed towards energy independence. We're gonna have career, high
Speaker 1: paying jobs for millions of Americans. That's great, and they're
Speaker 1: my first concern. Here's what I fear, and tell me
Speaker 1: if I'm wrong. For example, in this bill, the plan
Speaker 1: maintains the top bracket at thirty nine point six or
Speaker 1: how households earning more than a million dollars. All right,
Speaker 1: And when I look at the Reagan supply side conservative
Speaker 1: tax philosophy, which of which I am may I believe
Speaker 1: her in you're doing everything right on the corporate side,
Speaker 1: But there seems to have been the Republican Party now
Speaker 1: has moved away from Reagan conservative supply side tax cuts
Speaker 1: because Reagan cut the top marginal rates from seventy. Yes,
Speaker 1: and what we're you know, if you look at and
Speaker 1: I wish that I had the charts to show you,
Speaker 1: and maybe that's one of those things that like, uh
Speaker 1: like others who come onto your show and have a
Speaker 1: little chart where we could actually show these a little
Speaker 1: chart because those in the higher income all those higher
Speaker 1: income come earners aren't aren't um aren't getting as large
Speaker 1: of a tax, uh decrease, they're not getting any they're not.
Speaker 1: But but but hang on, the top ten percent of
Speaker 1: Americans pay seventy of the taxes, the top twenty percent
Speaker 1: pay over the bottom fifty percent pay nothing. Federal income
Speaker 1: taxes didn't Reagan dropped the top marginal rates. In other words,
Speaker 1: the people that actually pay taxes. You can't you can't
Speaker 1: give a tax cut to people that don't pay taxes.
Speaker 1: You give benefits, but you can't give them a tax cut.
Speaker 1: Reagan dropped that rate from seventy percent. It seems to
Speaker 1: me that there's a fear among Republicans the class warfare
Speaker 1: rhetoric will be used against them if they follow the
Speaker 1: Reagan supply side conservative model. But we wanted to be
Speaker 1: sure that where we actually give the greatest um U
Speaker 1: income relief is right there in the middle, which we
Speaker 1: are doing in our plan. But everyone is getting a
Speaker 1: small amount of cut, even up into the larger owners.
Speaker 1: So the one point to to one point six million
Speaker 1: dollar owners only are going to be in that place
Speaker 1: where they will not be able to take advantage of
Speaker 1: that lower rate of twelve right off of the bottle.
Speaker 1: But everybody cost the entire spectrum is going to be
Speaker 1: getting a decrease in their taxes. Smaller for those upper
Speaker 1: income owners, but here sweird. Well. But if the rate
Speaker 1: remains the same and you take away deductions like the
Speaker 1: state income tax deduction, doesn't that mean I pay more? No,
Speaker 1: Because you then get a benefit such as the A
Speaker 1: M T m is taken away. That makes a difference.
Speaker 1: We double the standard deduction for for folks that are
Speaker 1: all the way across the range, so that helps out
Speaker 1: this Well. I'm not saying this is about me, but
Speaker 1: I just believe if you're going to do the right
Speaker 1: thing on the corporate side, on the repatriation side, and
Speaker 1: the energy side, you know, if only really pay most
Speaker 1: of the bills, why not give them a real cut
Speaker 1: so they'll invest in the economy. Also, it's philosophical, it's
Speaker 1: not about me. I don't really care if if if
Speaker 1: the middle if the forgotten men and women in this
Speaker 1: country get more yet yet relief, I'm happy. But I'm
Speaker 1: saying that they can get a lot more relief if
Speaker 1: we believe in really blowing out and growing the economy
Speaker 1: and shan you know that as we look at turning
Speaker 1: one dial and another dial, we have to get to
Speaker 1: what reconciliation says is that we we have to have
Speaker 1: one point five dollar death sit at the max. And
Speaker 1: so when we look at again our goal being those
Speaker 1: in the middle income, we want to give them the
Speaker 1: greatest release because that is the area that needs the greatest. Listen,
Speaker 1: I'm a big I gotta take a break more with
Speaker 1: the Chairman of the House Budget Committee, Congresswoman Diane Black. Right,
Speaker 1: as we continue, the Chairman of the Budget Committee, Commercewoman
Speaker 1: Diane Black of Tennessee, is with us. I'm at a
Speaker 1: penny planned supporter for years, and you guys just passed
Speaker 1: the budget that has zero cuts. You're increasing spending every
Speaker 1: year due to baseline budgeting. Listen, and I'm not disagreeing
Speaker 1: with you, Sean. You know that the budget that I
Speaker 1: put out this year finally address the mandatory spending. Because
Speaker 1: there are two sides of this issue. Unless we actually
Speaker 1: get very serious about cutting our mandatory spending and we
Speaker 1: we address that as well, we will never be able
Speaker 1: to balance our budget. So we have got to get
Speaker 1: to that point where we recognize there is another side
Speaker 1: to this coin. On the other side of this coin.
Speaker 1: But as we see the economy grow um and as
Speaker 1: we see people having their wages increase, more jobs created,
Speaker 1: that does help to bring in more money to the
Speaker 1: federal government as well, which will help us to be
Speaker 1: able to start balancing. But we can't. What we can't
Speaker 1: do is say when more money comes in, we'll just
Speaker 1: spend more money, which has been here in Washington, the
Speaker 1: way that people think all more money is coming in,
Speaker 1: let's have more programs, And that's where we have to
Speaker 1: have the discipline. Yes, the economy will grow, Yes, there
Speaker 1: will be more money, um that will float. And I'm
Speaker 1: not I don't want to, I don't want to make
Speaker 1: this about you, but you've got to admit that the
Speaker 1: Republican Party is beyond timid here. And let me give
Speaker 1: you some examples. Republican Party couldn't get their act together
Speaker 1: and repeal and replace Healthcare. You did do it in
Speaker 1: the House, but they couldn't get a deal out of
Speaker 1: the Senate. And as a result, that's in the minds
Speaker 1: of voters, that's a huge, massive, broken seven year promise.
Speaker 1: And then on the issue, agreed totally with you, and
Speaker 1: that that squarely goes on the on the steps of
Speaker 1: the Senate, absolutely rely on them, and it's and it's
Speaker 1: and I'm like, then I'm looking at well John McCain
Speaker 1: saying that this budget is dead on arrival and comments
Speaker 1: from Murkowski and the then the usual suspects, and I'm
Speaker 1: thinking they can't even give us tax reform or real
Speaker 1: across the board tax cuts, and there's no spending cuts
Speaker 1: and I and I say in my opinion that the
Speaker 1: Republican Party is a shadow of its former self with
Speaker 1: no identity. Am I wrong? No, You're not wrong. I
Speaker 1: think you're absolutely right. If the Senate does not come
Speaker 1: through on what we have promised the American people we
Speaker 1: would do, and that is tax reforms, if they do
Speaker 1: not work with us and work with the President, then
Speaker 1: everybody over there needs in fairness to the House, there's
Speaker 1: three bills you guys passed, including Kate's law sanctuary cities,
Speaker 1: and they and they haven't even begun to tip. They're
Speaker 1: not even giving the president half of his appointments for
Speaker 1: crying out loud, and these people are on vacation every
Speaker 1: other week. It's pretty disheartening to me. It is very disheartening.
Speaker 1: It's disheartening to us because we work so hard at
Speaker 1: getting them plants out there with a repeal and replace
Speaker 1: and now with tax before and we've been working on
Speaker 1: this for seven years. I have been here for seven
Speaker 1: years and this is what we've been working on. If
Speaker 1: we do not do what we tell the American people
Speaker 1: that we're going to do on this, shame on us.
Speaker 1: And so we have to get this done. Here in
Speaker 1: the House, force the Senate to do their work. Let's
Speaker 1: do a conference committee, and let's give the American people
Speaker 1: tax relief where we will see this economy grow, because
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, that's what we'll make
Speaker 1: a difference for our country. If we get beyond up
Speaker 1: to four percent, and even gosh, if we could get
Speaker 1: up to the seven percent that we saw under Reagan,
Speaker 1: we could really see a difference being made on bringing
Speaker 1: down our debt and deficit. But we've got to go
Speaker 1: back to the indatory spending and those programs that we
Speaker 1: spend too much on. We've got to do something about
Speaker 1: those things. Just passed the budget. They didn't they keep
Speaker 1: baseline budgeting. They didn't cut a thing. If you want
Speaker 1: more money for the middle class, that's the single greatest,
Speaker 1: you know, thing you can do. I would prefer the
Speaker 1: Penny plan. You cut one penny out of every dollar everyone.
Speaker 1: I like the Penny plan too. I'd vote for the
Speaker 1: worked hard on the budget that finally got us to
Speaker 1: the point where we were addressing mandatory spending. Took us
Speaker 1: a long time to do it, but we passed it
Speaker 1: out of the budget. We passed it in the House
Speaker 1: I'm very proud of that it was the Senate that
Speaker 1: because we knew that this was the most important thing
Speaker 1: this year for a number of people, including the House
Speaker 1: and also UM the President once to get tax reform done.
Speaker 1: But I am assured by my leadership that they are
Speaker 1: going to be doing mandatory reform entitlement performed next year
Speaker 1: on the budget, and that has to be done because
Speaker 1: this is a balance. This is not just about UM
Speaker 1: raising or cutting taxes and getting the economy movie. This
Speaker 1: is also about not spending it when it comes in.
Speaker 1: All right, Congresswoman, I agree with what you're saying. I
Speaker 1: just wish maybe you can take these people in the Senate,
Speaker 1: put them in a room, turn off the air conditioner,
Speaker 1: and you know, throw in occasional pizzas, and they can't
Speaker 1: leave until they do their job. All right. Whatever we
Speaker 1: have to do to make them do their job is
Speaker 1: what the American people expect of us. I appreciate you
Speaker 1: being with us. Thank you so much. Commerce Woman Diane
Speaker 1: Black eight hundred nine one, Shawn Tolfrey telephone number. You
Speaker 1: want to be a part of the program. The thousand nine,
Speaker 1: the United States gave negotiations yet another chance and offered
Speaker 1: North Korea the open hand of engagement. The regime responded
Speaker 1: by sinking a South Korean Navy ship, killing forty six
Speaker 1: Korean sailors. To this day, it continues to launch missiles
Speaker 1: over the sovereign territory of Japan at all other neighbors,
Speaker 1: test nuclear devices, and develop i c b ms to
Speaker 1: threaten the United States itself. The regime has interpreted America's
Speaker 1: past restraint as weakness. This would be a fatal miscalculation.
Speaker 1: This is a very different administration than the United States
Speaker 1: has had in the past. Today, I hope I speak
Speaker 1: not only for our countries but for all civilized nations
Speaker 1: when I say to the North, do not underestimate us,
Speaker 1: and do not try us. All Right, That was the
Speaker 1: President thirty miles from the d m Z, and what
Speaker 1: was a historic speech. We don't seek confrontation or conflict
Speaker 1: of any kind, but we will never run from it.
Speaker 1: One of the great things the President did last night
Speaker 1: is compare and contrast to two Koreas, South Korea, their
Speaker 1: economic growth, their health, their prosperity, and then the of course,
Speaker 1: the corruption, the highest loyalty. You get to live within
Speaker 1: the capital city and you actually get to feed your
Speaker 1: children otherwise you live outside of the city and starvation
Speaker 1: where kids are literally dying as the moneys that have
Speaker 1: come into North Korea are literally spent on weaponry almost
Speaker 1: all the time. How bad the unemployment is. The great
Speaker 1: history and the relationship between South Korea and the United
Speaker 1: States of America about how you know, two million dollars
Speaker 1: and monuments built to literally worship these dictates Kim Jong
Speaker 1: un and his father, Kim Jong ill and his grandfather.
Speaker 1: And what a twisted regime. This is starvation, stunted growth,
Speaker 1: malnutrition because they don't care about their own people. On
Speaker 1: the other hand, you've got literally nothing but prosperity. You've
Speaker 1: got the the three fifty times what their their GDP
Speaker 1: growth was in nineteen sixty, their increase in trade, their
Speaker 1: life expectancy from the early fifties to the you know,
Speaker 1: eighty two years of age in South Korea. You go
Speaker 1: through it. It's amazing. Anyway, joining us now is Dr
Speaker 1: Sebastian Gorka, and I can officially announce today he is
Speaker 1: a Fox News national security strategist, author of the best
Speaker 1: selling book Defeating Jihad One. Welcome to the Fox family. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know how much. I love having you on the program.
Speaker 1: You're a true uh patriot hero and an amazing, amazing
Speaker 1: political analyst and strategic analysts. Thank you for being with us,
Speaker 1: and we're so happy for your success. It's uh in
Speaker 1: last part, really thanks to you, Shure, and you've been
Speaker 1: a great supporter and only of myself, but of the
Speaker 1: administration and the President. And it's great to be back
Speaker 1: as a part of the superb Fox family. Thank you,
Speaker 1: Shan Well, thank you very much. I appreciate it. All right,
Speaker 1: let's start with the speech last night. We didn't have
Speaker 1: time to analyze it. First of all, the president I got,
Speaker 1: I got whacked this morning and by the corrupt news media.
Speaker 1: So Tucker hands me off the show last night. They're screaming,
Speaker 1: they're screaming in my ear. All right, potuses in the
Speaker 1: building and is expected any minute now. All right, So
Speaker 1: I put aside my opening monologue because you don't want
Speaker 1: to start your monologue and then in the middle of
Speaker 1: it say, oh, here's the President. I'll finish this later.
Speaker 1: It's it's not good TV. So I had you, and
Speaker 1: I had Ambassador John Bolton on and I kept hearing
Speaker 1: every other minute. Now he's there, any second now, and
Speaker 1: then they started seating you know, General Ellie and Hope
Speaker 1: Pigs and the first lady came in with you know,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, all right, so I'm waiting, And so
Speaker 1: we ended up doing like seventeen and it's a really good,
Speaker 1: hard hitting analysis on the situation in North Korea and
Speaker 1: around the world. And you guys were amazing. But we
Speaker 1: weren't talking about the election because I thought at any
Speaker 1: second I would be breaking. Of course, we had the
Speaker 1: election covered, and the election as a result of Ed
Speaker 1: Gillespie saying not to Donald Trump and rebuffing Steve Bannon's
Speaker 1: offered to help in the closing days of the campaign.
Speaker 1: That's a big part of it. Anyway. What are your
Speaker 1: thoughts on the president's speech? First, just two words, just
Speaker 1: leadership and truth. I mean that was Look, I am
Speaker 1: the child of people who escaped communist dictatorship. So it
Speaker 1: was an emotional evening for me listening to those words.
Speaker 1: It was two speeches in one. The first half was
Speaker 1: about the amazing success that in South Korea. I mean,
Speaker 1: just that whole thing about the golf tournament and that
Speaker 1: you know, eight out of the ten was you know,
Speaker 1: women from South Korea that that won the championship. It
Speaker 1: was just as you should be, you know, being a
Speaker 1: gracious guest to your wonderful hosts for the second half.
Speaker 1: My word that was that was just truth. That was
Speaker 1: that was a wake up call to what North Korea is,
Speaker 1: that that evil exists, that it walks the earth, and
Speaker 1: that we have countries today still today that are made
Speaker 1: up of captive populations under the boot of of people
Speaker 1: like the Kim dynasty. It was. It was an amazing
Speaker 1: moment of clarity and also a statement that America is
Speaker 1: back and we will talk truthfully about the threat to
Speaker 1: not only ourselves but to our friends and our allies.
Speaker 1: And and it was a historic speech in my opinion.
Speaker 1: Short I loved hearing that we don't want confrontation, We're
Speaker 1: not going to run from it, and he believes in
Speaker 1: peace through strength. Yes, I mean this took us about
Speaker 1: I don't know about you, but I felt like I
Speaker 1: was in a time machine going back to the nineteen eighties.
Speaker 1: It could have been it could have been Ronald Reagan
Speaker 1: at the Brandon burd Gate. It could have been Margaret
Speaker 1: Thatcher talking about that the evils of the captive nations
Speaker 1: of of the satellites of the Soviet Union. It was
Speaker 1: it was no more apologizing, it was no more avoiding
Speaker 1: the issue, and it wasn't making excuses for evil. You've
Speaker 1: had eight years, for example, of the Obama White House
Speaker 1: saying well, you know, jihadis are just unemployed, and it's economics,
Speaker 1: and then disenfranchise and really, you know, the terrorists might
Speaker 1: be the victims. Really at the end of the day. No,
Speaker 1: but there are evil actors out there, whether it's Isis,
Speaker 1: whether it's North Korea, whether it's Iran. And the President
Speaker 1: spoke absolutely truthfully about those threats, and he said, We're
Speaker 1: not going to go to war. It's not not our
Speaker 1: intent to go to war, but we will not back
Speaker 1: down if you shred us. And that's exactly the message
Speaker 1: you give to a bully like the regime in North Korea.
Speaker 1: What did you think of the elections night? Now? Interesting
Speaker 1: Nate Silver, who Democrats worship at the altar of even
Speaker 1: he rightly said that the race in Virginia, for example,
Speaker 1: is not a good predictor of things to come. I
Speaker 1: know that the President had offered us my understanding to
Speaker 1: go in there. We know ed Gillespie wouldn't even you know, declined.
Speaker 1: Apparently Bannon offered a stump for for Ed Gillespie wouldn't go,
Speaker 1: wouldn't even go on Bright Part Radio. I think that
Speaker 1: is a faction of the Democrat of the New Republican
Speaker 1: Party that nobody wants to pay attention to. That's the
Speaker 1: faction that actually has an identity, a vision, is fighting
Speaker 1: for principles and core beliefs, as say, compared to Republicans
Speaker 1: in the House and Senate, which are weak and and
Speaker 1: timid and visionless and literally lacking identity. I'm a resident
Speaker 1: of Virginias, of cool sime sat and I would have
Speaker 1: loved to see the state uh Republican last night. But
Speaker 1: but let's look at the facts. These are neither states.
Speaker 1: Are they did not vote for President Trump. So that's
Speaker 1: you know, issue number one we should be surprised. And secondly,
Speaker 1: in the first of a candidate like Allespie, they're not
Speaker 1: MAGA candidates. They're not the Judge Moore's, they're not the
Speaker 1: Kelly Wards. So why am I not surprised that he
Speaker 1: didn't want people like Steep Bannon myself right back to
Speaker 1: help him, Because did you are you are pret to
Speaker 1: go into no I mean if he didn't want Steve
Speaker 1: to go, he was not gonna ask me to go. So,
Speaker 1: you know, the bottom line is these are individuals. Whether
Speaker 1: it's his advisors or not, doesn't matter. It's an elite
Speaker 1: that still does not understand what happened on November the eight,
Speaker 1: November the eight, you know, Mike Flynn. I completely agree
Speaker 1: with what General Flynn said last year. He said November
Speaker 1: eight was a political revolution. Everything changed. A billionaire from Queens,
Speaker 1: New York had people from you know, the the Youngs Town,
Speaker 1: Steel Valley Democrat manual laborer community vote for him. That's
Speaker 1: a political revolution, like the Demo transit votes for Ronald Reagan.
Speaker 1: And it's clear that Lespels advisor, just the GOP launch
Speaker 1: still don't understand what's happening to our great nation. I
Speaker 1: don't think they understand at all. And you know, it's
Speaker 1: it's funny because there's so many times, so often they're wrong.
Speaker 1: All these reporters today's saying, is this a big referendum
Speaker 1: on Trump? And I'm looking you guys still don't get it.
Speaker 1: All right, we gotta take a break, we'll come back,
Speaker 1: we'll continue. Dr Sebastian Gorka is with us, by the way,
Speaker 1: brand new member of the Fox News Channel family, as
Speaker 1: we welcome him aboard today, it's official. We call on
Speaker 1: every nation, including China and Russia, to fully implement U
Speaker 1: N Security Council resolutions, downgrade diplomatic relations with the regime,
Speaker 1: and sever all ties of trade and technology. It is
Speaker 1: our responsibility and our duty to confront this danger together,
Speaker 1: because the longer we wait, the greater the day your growth,
Speaker 1: and the fewer the options become. And to those nations
Speaker 1: that you use to ignore this threat, or worse still,
Speaker 1: to enable it, the weight of this crisis is on
Speaker 1: your conscience. I also have come here to this peninsula
Speaker 1: to deliver a message directly to the leader of the
Speaker 1: North Korean dictatorship. The weapons you're acquiring are not making
Speaker 1: you safer. They are putting your regime in grave danger.
Speaker 1: Every step you take down this dark path increases the
Speaker 1: peril you face. North Korea is not the paradise your
Speaker 1: grandfather envisioned. It is a hell that no person deserves. Yet,
Speaker 1: despite every crime you have committed against God and man,
Speaker 1: you are ready to offer and we will do that.
Speaker 1: We will offer a path to a much better future.
Speaker 1: Joining us now is Dr Sebastian Gorka. I'm gonna go back.
Speaker 1: I'll actually in place some of my call that I
Speaker 1: made into Fox on election night one year ago tonight,
Speaker 1: and I'm going to tell you something. It is how
Speaker 1: the faces of people all across the media landscape were shocked,
Speaker 1: and they're shocked today. And and let me know this,
Speaker 1: if Republicans don't win an eighteen is because what they
Speaker 1: didn't keep their promise to repeal and replace, because they
Speaker 1: barely can get a tax reform bill done. They're so
Speaker 1: afraid of class warfare rhetoric of the left that they
Speaker 1: actually are raising taxes on the wealthy and abandoning conservative
Speaker 1: supply side, Reagan economics. It's absolutely stunning to me how
Speaker 1: afraid they are. We're both you know, sure, guys, we've
Speaker 1: we've been around the block. We've seen a thing or two.
Speaker 1: And you can only judge a human being or a
Speaker 1: group of human beings not based upon what they say,
Speaker 1: but we judge them upon what they do. Right, So absolutely,
Speaker 1: let's do that with the president, and let's do that
Speaker 1: with the GOP. What is the president done in the
Speaker 1: last nine months. It's just stunning. I know, it's shocking.
Speaker 1: For most people that this is a man who promises
Speaker 1: things and then actually does them. But look at it,
Speaker 1: lowest unemployment in seventeen years, a million and a half jobs,
Speaker 1: create a stock market that's increased by twenty It is
Speaker 1: caliphate destroyed, nature revitalized. My allies in Asia really reassured.
Speaker 1: That's reality, that's not rhetoric. Okay, let's compare that with
Speaker 1: the GP. What's the gpdane since that January twenties. Okay,
Speaker 1: they confirmed a Supreme Justice Gorselet, which is great. What
Speaker 1: else has they done? Nothing exactly right? And that they
Speaker 1: cannot get away with that because the American people, thanks
Speaker 1: to the President Bank through Twitter feed, are seeing through
Speaker 1: the lies. There's nothing conservative left about the GOP. It's
Speaker 1: business as usual. It's being in power. It's about being
Speaker 1: milked toast, and that is what we have to sign at.
Speaker 1: But they're a shot. Listen. It's funny because I've been
Speaker 1: interviewed by a lot of reporters over the year. I
Speaker 1: keep saying to them, I the Trump agenda has been
Speaker 1: the Reagan agenda, and it has been what I never changed.
Speaker 1: I the Republican Party of today abandoned me. They're the
Speaker 1: party that didn't want to use the power of the
Speaker 1: purse enumerated powers. They're the ones that were afraid they'd
Speaker 1: get blamed for a government shutdown. They're now afraid of
Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer's and Nancy Pelo Lucy's class warfare rhetoric. They're
Speaker 1: not doing what Reagan. Reagan dropped the top marginal rates
Speaker 1: from seventy They're raising taxes on every basically every taxpayer
Speaker 1: except the middle class. I love what they're doing on
Speaker 1: the corporate side, it's right, it's it's reagan esque. But
Speaker 1: on personal income, on raising taxes, it's a big mistake.
Speaker 1: And the only reason they don't want to do it
Speaker 1: is they're afraid to fight. They don't stand for anything anymore.
Speaker 1: Their visionless and identity less. Can I get Can I
Speaker 1: give you an example that just totally proved to me
Speaker 1: how deep the rot is. I spoke to a congressman
Speaker 1: when when you were doing amazing work with Sarah Carter
Speaker 1: blowing up the whole husion GPS and uranium. One story
Speaker 1: I spoke to a congressman about, you know, when when
Speaker 1: is Congress finally going to look into this stuff? Not
Speaker 1: not the Russian collusion, delusion but the Hillary corruption and
Speaker 1: the Husian GPS and uranium one. And this congressman who's
Speaker 1: a good guy, said, um, we've been trying for months,
Speaker 1: but the leadership is blocking us. The gettle P leadership
Speaker 1: on the Hill is blocking us. And I said, why
Speaker 1: why would they block you investigating a Clinton Democrat massive
Speaker 1: pay for play corruption? And he said, the leadership does
Speaker 1: not wish to look biased. November the eight is not
Speaker 1: one day, and it's not about one person. It's avantage
Speaker 1: and right. It is about what Reagan Thatch true conservatives
Speaker 1: stood for. And that's what two thousand eighteens think to
Speaker 1: be about, by the way, as they're getting their brains
Speaker 1: beaten in every night by a corrupt media. All right,
Speaker 1: thank you so much for being with us. We appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Dr Sebastian GORKA quick break right back your calls and
Speaker 1: a trip down memory lane when we get back alright
Speaker 1: now until the top of the I want to take
Speaker 1: you back way. Do you see what we have planned
Speaker 1: on Hannity tonight at nine You're you're going to love
Speaker 1: We're gonna take you back one year ago tonight I
Speaker 1: told the story I think it was yesterday of I
Speaker 1: don't work election night, so I never have because when
Speaker 1: I get there, they like put me on five minutes
Speaker 1: and it's like it's a news night and it's not
Speaker 1: so much opinion, and I've got strong opinion anyway. They
Speaker 1: begged me last year to be in. I said, no,
Speaker 1: I'm not going in. I I like to do my
Speaker 1: thing on election night and nuts, you know, analyze Cuyahoga County,
Speaker 1: Hamilton's County, uh, Palm Beach County, Brawer County, Southwest Florida.
Speaker 1: The panic. I just that's what I do. So I
Speaker 1: do my own analysis and how many votes do we need?
Speaker 1: How few votes do they need for this particular county,
Speaker 1: what were the what was the vote count at this time?
Speaker 1: In and two thousand and eight, I get very nerdy
Speaker 1: and wonky on on election nights. I was called as
Speaker 1: the night was beginning to turn, and my cohorts and
Speaker 1: the media were in the funeral mode and shock mode
Speaker 1: and being traumatized. I think they still have a post
Speaker 1: traumatic stress today that Donald Trump won. One year later.
Speaker 1: Uh my boss at the time, Bill Shan, calls me, says,
Speaker 1: get to that studio we built for you near your house.
Speaker 1: I said, I'm not going. I had three or four beers.
Speaker 1: I can't and he goes, uh, call in now, call
Speaker 1: it right now. Call this number's all right. So in
Speaker 1: the middle of Fox's coverage, I call in. I stayed
Speaker 1: on how long? I mean you were actually technically on
Speaker 1: for ten minutes. What we have done is we have
Speaker 1: edited down to the best of Hannity from election night.
Speaker 1: This is me Election night calling into the Fox News channel.
Speaker 1: To me, this was predictable. But on the other hand,
Speaker 1: this is a a modern day political miracle. You're witnessing
Speaker 1: before your eyes right now. And that is to go
Speaker 1: up against everybody and all the pundit's and all the
Speaker 1: posters and all the prognosticators out there and defy all
Speaker 1: the odds. And it's the American people that have said
Speaker 1: enough is enough. They're tired of the corruption, the test pool, draining,
Speaker 1: the swamp. All of these things were resonating. You know,
Speaker 1: when you look at a state like Wisconsin, what are
Speaker 1: they saying? They want their jobs back. They want the
Speaker 1: labor participation rate to be lower. Uh, in other words,
Speaker 1: more people having jobs. Uh. They want America to be
Speaker 1: energy independent. They're tired of a horrible educational system, they're
Speaker 1: tired of Obamacare rates going through the roof. This is
Speaker 1: not complicated. What's happening now is not working. And these
Speaker 1: guys and Donald Trump has gone out there and the
Speaker 1: outworked Hillary Clinton, and he put forward a much better agenda,
Speaker 1: and America said enough is enough with failed policy. That's
Speaker 1: what this election was about. Fundamentally. You know what drives
Speaker 1: the elections, peace and prosperity. America is not prosperous. America
Speaker 1: is not working. Gillery lied about her emails, lied about
Speaker 1: Thank god, she's corrupt, She's so dishonest. Look at the
Speaker 1: exit post tonight. And at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: you know, is Donald Trump like every other person or
Speaker 1: we all flawed, if we all sinned and fallen short? Yeah? Um.
Speaker 1: And maybe he wasn't spending his entire life running for president,
Speaker 1: which is why he probably went on the Howard Stern Show.
Speaker 1: If if my plan is to run for president, I
Speaker 1: probably wouldn't go on Howard Show. Um. And with that said,
Speaker 1: Americans saw through that, and they saw a guy that
Speaker 1: was really successful and really had a dream that America
Speaker 1: could be a lot better. Look, we have nearly fifty
Speaker 1: million Americans and poverty nearly fifty million Americans on food stamps,
Speaker 1: million Americans out of the labor force. These are millions
Speaker 1: of our fellow citizens that are suffering. Things are getting worse.
Speaker 1: This president has taken on more depth than every other
Speaker 1: president before him combined, and Americans are looking at their
Speaker 1: children and grandchildren and say this is immoral. This has
Speaker 1: to stop. And that is the reason why I felt
Speaker 1: confident coming into tonight that he had a very good chance,
Speaker 1: although a difficult path, as we've been following the news
Speaker 1: all night, and he was able to pull it off
Speaker 1: because the American people, deep down inside, they cut through
Speaker 1: the clutter, they cut through the noise, they cut through
Speaker 1: all the spin, and they said, we're not on the
Speaker 1: right path. You know, when when Washington promises keep your doctor,
Speaker 1: keep your plan, and save per family a year and
Speaker 1: people lose their doctor's plans and a fan on average
Speaker 1: dollars a year more, and then they're seeing increases next
Speaker 1: year of ad, you know, they begin to realize they've
Speaker 1: been lied to. When they see a foreign policy where
Speaker 1: there's six request before the Benghazi attack and our government
Speaker 1: did nothing, they say government's failing. When brave men and
Speaker 1: women fight, bleed and die in Bostal Ramadi, Fellujjah A Spree,
Speaker 1: and and Baghdad, and then we pull out and create
Speaker 1: an opening for Isis. They say, that's the failure. When
Speaker 1: you give a hundred and fifty billion dollars to the
Speaker 1: number one state sponsor of terror, that is a failure.
Speaker 1: And on every objective measure. You know, thank god, the
Speaker 1: American people this is about one thing. They see that
Speaker 1: Washington is broken. And by the way, Republicans are just
Speaker 1: as guilty. Paul Ryan is not going to be the
Speaker 1: Speaker of the House in January. I was going to
Speaker 1: say that for my program tomorrow. He's not going to
Speaker 1: be the speaker his state. When for Donald Trump tonight,
Speaker 1: I mean, it's an amazing turn of events because the
Speaker 1: establishment on both sides, Republican and Democrats, have lost touch
Speaker 1: with the real lives of real Americans that are really suffering.
Speaker 1: And Donald Trump has now opened the door and said
Speaker 1: we're gonna fix it, and we're gonna turn that table over.
Speaker 1: And you know what, I wish him all the best
Speaker 1: because it's not gonna be easy because all the same
Speaker 1: people that opposed him in the lead up that tonight
Speaker 1: are gonna be opposing him tomorrow. Now, compare that to
Speaker 1: the media on election night. I was flipping all over
Speaker 1: the dials. It was a funeral everywhere, except, of course,
Speaker 1: my call that you just heard, and that we should
Speaker 1: put the whole call on Hannity dot Com. Anyway, here
Speaker 1: is the media freak out on election night. Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: Just last week he confirms the National Review that he's
Speaker 1: again considering a run in it. We're looking for auto
Speaker 1: brought you account fighting check now on the half of
Speaker 1: this country which doesn't want you to be president, but
Speaker 1: which badly wants you to run. Donald Trump has been
Speaker 1: saying that he will run for president as a Republican,
Speaker 1: which is surprising since I just assumed he was running
Speaker 1: as a joke. Is that people think that Donald Trump
Speaker 1: is a clown. Donald Donald Trump is a clown. And
Speaker 1: I mean, does anybody seriously think that Donald Trump is
Speaker 1: serious about running for president? Donald Trump ain't the clown.
Speaker 1: President Obama will go down as perhaps the worst president
Speaker 1: in the history of the United States. Exclamation point at
Speaker 1: real Donald Trump, at real Donald Trump. At least I
Speaker 1: will go down as a president. Basically, this is the
Speaker 1: beginning of the end for Trump. At the beginning of
Speaker 1: the end the beginning of the end is probably starting
Speaker 1: of the beginning of the end for for Donald Trump. Donald,
Speaker 1: You're not gonna be able to insult your way to
Speaker 1: the presidency. The strongest person usually isn't the loudest one
Speaker 1: in the room. So right now we have Hillary is
Speaker 1: about seventy five or favorite, we have different person. Just
Speaker 1: has Hillary Clinton up by double digits nationally twelve points,
Speaker 1: fifty thirty four way race. Liton leading in Florida, Clilton
Speaker 1: leading in North Carolina, Clinton leading in Ohio, Clinton leading
Speaker 1: in Nevada. I could go on and on and on. Uh.
Speaker 1: I continue to believe in Mr trum Trump will not
Speaker 1: be president. And so right now, Mr Trump, to answer
Speaker 1: your call for political honesty, I just want to say,
Speaker 1: you're not going to be president. All right, it's been fun,
Speaker 1: it's been great. I love here fun. But come on,
Speaker 1: come on, bunny. We are a major projection right now.
Speaker 1: Donald Trump will take how hard that's projects. Donald Trump
Speaker 1: will carry the state of Florida. Win, cryp Donald Trumper,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, We for Jack Wild in Kentucky, within Indiana
Speaker 1: with its eleven electoral valuty wrestling Virginia, Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi,
Speaker 1: the South Carolina, Alabama, North Dakota. Probably it's three electoral
Speaker 1: votes in South Texas, Arkansas, Louisia, this state, lo Tana,
Speaker 1: North Carolina, Georgia, Utah, Wisconsin, Arizona, Kansas with its six
Speaker 1: electoral votes. Nebraska need it's five electoral votes. And why
Speaker 1: you're with its three electoral votes. Sorry to keep you waiting,
Speaker 1: complicated business. A lot of people have laughed at me
Speaker 1: over the years. Now they're not laughing so much. I'll
Speaker 1: tell you you know. If um, in light of the
Speaker 1: media space, Donald Trump lost last night in Donald Trump
Speaker 1: was not embraced by Ed Gillespie. He didn't win Virginia
Speaker 1: last year. Uh, the same thing in New Jersey. What
Speaker 1: does Christy have a five percent approval rating in New Jersey?
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's not happening in New Jersey this
Speaker 1: this year. Uh, we'll need more another John Corzine corrupt
Speaker 1: scandal and things will move back, hopefully. In the state
Speaker 1: of Washington. Trump did in Washington, didn't win New York.
Speaker 1: He didn't need to go out in campaign. Gillespie didn't
Speaker 1: want him on the campaign, which was a bad decision.
Speaker 1: Bannon offered to go help him and would have helped
Speaker 1: a lot. Bad decision. Anyway, Let's get to our phones.
Speaker 1: Paul is in Bend, Oregon. Paul, how are you among
Speaker 1: the beautiful redwoods? How are you? Sir? Hi? So? And
Speaker 1: I'm doing great? How are you? I'm good? What's going on?
Speaker 1: One year later? One year later, I've got a great
Speaker 1: staff for you. Today I discovered through doing some research
Speaker 1: on the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Today, just one year
Speaker 1: since Trump was elected, the DAO has already grown six
Speaker 1: of what it grew in eight years under Obama. I
Speaker 1: think the better statistics are are the housing statistics, the
Speaker 1: unemployment statistics, the demographic breakdowns of employment, and the improvements
Speaker 1: we've made in UH seventeen year low of food stamp
Speaker 1: participation in a thirty year housing UH boom for the country.
Speaker 1: We haven't had a housing boom like this in thirty years,
Speaker 1: and a seventeen year UH increase in consumer confidence. And
Speaker 1: the Republicans haven't even done their job. Trump has only
Speaker 1: done his right. I agree with you, neither going to
Speaker 1: give those stats. I love stats myself, and and the
Speaker 1: global stock market has gained twenty eight trillion since Trump
Speaker 1: selection as of today. I mean that's pretty impressive. But
Speaker 1: your stats are right. Unemployment is down. The four point
Speaker 1: one lowis in seventeen years. One point five million new
Speaker 1: jobs created since Trump took office. Pretty impressive day, Pretty
Speaker 1: impressive day. Look, it was a great night. I remember
Speaker 1: how I felt that night, and you know, I started
Speaker 1: revealing some of the things that took place. I got
Speaker 1: the eggs of Pole numbers the second they're coming in
Speaker 1: and I'm looking North Carolina done, he lost, Florida gone.
Speaker 1: Then I got Wisconsin gone, Pennsylvania gone, Uh, Michigan gone.
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is gonna get trounced. That's what the eggs
Speaker 1: of pose. Same thing. In two thousand and four, John
Speaker 1: Kerry Eggs of Pole showed he was going to be
Speaker 1: the next president. And like in two thousand and four, anyway,
Speaker 1: I got in my first break in the five o'clock hour.
Speaker 1: I actually called Donald Trump then candidate. I said, Uh,
Speaker 1: if you minutes, people are gonna walk into your office.
Speaker 1: And he was in Trump Tower that night, and they're
Speaker 1: gonna tell you that you lost, that the exit polls
Speaker 1: show you lost. Don't believe it. And then I told
Speaker 1: him the Dick Cheney's story in the two thousand four
Speaker 1: story and then the whole night unfolding, and I kept
Speaker 1: looking at us, This looks great, This looks great, This
Speaker 1: looks great. I have a tradition with Bill Shine, who
Speaker 1: has been up to then, had been my boss for
Speaker 1: you know, twenty two years. On election night, he always
Speaker 1: comes to me, what are you see? And he has
Speaker 1: all these emails he saved over the year for some
Speaker 1: reason that says, I'm always the first person that calls
Speaker 1: the race. I was the first person that told him
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is going to be the next president because
Speaker 1: I saw it unfolding. I saw the counties, I saw much.
Speaker 1: You know, once once the polls closed and once the
Speaker 1: results start coming in in certain areas, you have a
Speaker 1: pretty good idea where that that night was headed. And
Speaker 1: I said, I don't know how, but I'm seeing this combination,
Speaker 1: in this possible combination. Anyway, Thank you, Paul. Bonnie is
Speaker 1: in New Jersey. Bonnie, Hi, how are you glad? You
Speaker 1: called good? Sean? How are you today? I'm good? What's
Speaker 1: going on? Bonnie Son? You are the spiritual Santa Claus?
Speaker 1: What does that mean to say? With your movie? I
Speaker 1: just do not even have words. So you went to
Speaker 1: see it? I went to see it Monday. I'm going
Speaker 1: back with um a group, my mom, my aunt, my
Speaker 1: cousins were all going back again tonight. UM. I just
Speaker 1: cannot say enough words about it. I think it's a
Speaker 1: gift to America. I hope it goes throughout the world
Speaker 1: so they all can have a Christmas blessing. This was
Speaker 1: such a spiritual renewal, and I think people have to
Speaker 1: go see it to understand it. You know, I did this,
Speaker 1: I think for all the right reasons. I did it
Speaker 1: because I'm sick of Hollywood. I'm sick of their violence, sex,
Speaker 1: and and cartoon character comic character movie formula and Jennifer
Speaker 1: Aniston falling in love formula. So I just wanted a
Speaker 1: movie that would touch people's hearts, their emotions, and their
Speaker 1: souls and also be intellectually stimulating and be contemporary. It was.
Speaker 1: It was all of those. It hit every emotion possible
Speaker 1: to the human spirit. It was in a movie where
Speaker 1: you heard the crackling of people eating popcorn to the
Speaker 1: crackling of tissues rappers being open. It was just amazing.
Speaker 1: I warned everybody, I'm I have heard entire theaters are
Speaker 1: crying in this movie, and I have to tell you.
Speaker 1: You know, Jersey guys are pretty tough, pretty tough group.
Speaker 1: And I had a guy that looked like he could
Speaker 1: have been out of Hell's Angels sitting two seats over
Speaker 1: from me, and he was crying. He was literally crying.
Speaker 1: And that's powerful. That is a powerful thing. And you
Speaker 1: did it. And I just wanted to call and say
Speaker 1: thank you. You gave a gift to America and everyone
Speaker 1: should go and see it. I'm so glad you're like, listen, Uh,
Speaker 1: here's the other big news. I didn't even really know
Speaker 1: until today that because of the success and week to
Speaker 1: remember we started in three, we think we're going to
Speaker 1: be an eight hundred this weekend. Now again, we're doing
Speaker 1: this independently. We have no backing, no support, no studio
Speaker 1: at all, because we didn't want their influence because once
Speaker 1: you get involved and they have say over this, say
Speaker 1: over that, and they're annoying as hell and they don't
Speaker 1: know what they're doing. All right, that's gonna wrap things
Speaker 1: up today. Please watch tonight's opening monologue nine Eastern. It's
Speaker 1: gonna be amazing. A rare television appearance. Steve Bannett. We'll
Speaker 1: talk about the election results from last night, we'll talk

Speaker 1: information as it relates to all of the injustices and
Speaker 1: all of the fixes of the Clintons. We have tes
