And so much going on today, 25 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: and I am focused, so I am confident that I 26 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 1: will get it in. Uh Anthony Scaramucci is leaving as 27 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,679 Speaker 1: General Kelly now comes in and I guess he wants 28 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: to probably bring in his own team and communications team, 29 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: and uh so that is the latest breaking news. You 30 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 1: notice the media, that's all they want to focus on 31 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: is either Russia, Russia, Russia or the Palace intrigue. They 32 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 1: what they don't want to ever focus in on is 33 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: the numerous scandals, even Debbie Wasserman Schultz and the I 34 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 1: T guy and this incredible story of corruption when you 35 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 1: know there's double billing. You know, people are hired that 36 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: don't have the qualifications, and they have access to information 37 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 1: that probably is compromising to the country, and she keeps 38 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 1: them on when everyone else got rid of the guy 39 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 1: and and peep, It's it is so bizarre. Another example 40 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 1: of more hard drives busted up. They're either bleach bit 41 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 1: acid washed. You've got devices destroyed with hammers, and then 42 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 1: you've got hard drives absolutely demolished. I've never seen such real, 43 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 1: open obstruction of justice in my life. But that's all 44 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 1: we seem to get with with the Democratic Party, and 45 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,920 Speaker 1: with all the talk about okay, well, Anthony Scaramucci is 46 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 1: making way for the new chief of staff to have 47 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 1: his own team in a clean slate. You know, that's 48 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: that's all you'll hear from the media. They're not gonna 49 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 1: focus and get this. G d P has gone up 50 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 1: to two point six percent, more than doubling the radar 51 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 1: growth in the first quarter, which was ostensibly the Obama quarter. 52 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 1: It's put down the economy on a trajectory that could 53 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: get the president at three g d P or higher 54 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: by the end of the year. And it is accelerated 55 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: dramatic medically. We have the lowest number of people on 56 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: food stamps in seven years. You're not gonna hear about 57 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: that type of growth. And if the if that Congress 58 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,079 Speaker 1: ever gets their act together, it's even gonna be bigger 59 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 1: than that. And let me just give you a list 60 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 1: of the things we're gonna touch on today all of 61 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 1: our top stories. We got General Kelly in as the 62 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 1: President's new chief of Staff. There was an incredible background 63 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 1: story about him that I want to share with you 64 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: about who he is. In many ways, the North Korea 65 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: situation has zero good options, and it is now emerging, 66 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 1: I think as what will be a defining challenge for 67 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: the Trump administration, maybe even far more than any other 68 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 1: issue that ultimately he ends up dealing with. Between China 69 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: and and Japan and North and South Korea and the 70 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: Iranians and Radical Islam and Russia, this world is a 71 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: mess and it's going to need bold leadership. But when 72 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 1: it comes to once Clinton allowed out North Korea to 73 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: get nuclear weapons, and he basically bribed them into getting them, 74 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: which sounds absurd, but he tried to buy them off, 75 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: buy them off, by them off, and they got him anyway, 76 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: and it cost us billions and billions of dollars that 77 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: were wasted instead of just taking out whether the facilities 78 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: in the first place, which should be a abject lesson 79 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 1: for how we deal with the RAND going forward. Then 80 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 1: on top of that, we've got the numerous scandals. Think 81 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 1: about what's happening scandal wise with the Democratic Party and 82 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 1: Republicans are not only impotent when it comes to their agenda. 83 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: As I say, they are a party now that does 84 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: not have a real identity. I don't know this Republican 85 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 1: party anymore. But on top of not getting legislative accomplishments, 86 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 1: nor are they getting doing their job in terms of 87 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 1: using their power that you gave them, their subpoena power, 88 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 1: their investigative powers. Imagine if the I T, Wasson and 89 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: Shultz story had to do with some buddy that worked 90 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 1: with the Trump campaign and there were smashed hard drives, 91 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 1: double billing questionable people on a payroll that have no 92 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: I T. Experience and that she keeps him on for 93 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: this extraordinary period of time before he tries to with 94 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 1: an ankle Bracelet send money to Pakistan so he can 95 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 1: head to cut her and then over to Pakistan. Really, 96 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: Donald Trump, did that scandal? Scandal? Real collusion? Or the 97 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 1: Ukrainian story? Imagine a Trump campaign member meeting with the 98 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 1: Ukrainian ambassador in the Ukrainian embassy and passing on information 99 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: to the r n C and the Trump campaign. What 100 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: would happen? Then? Imagine Uranian one, which I think ultimately 101 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 1: becomes the biggest scandal because I don't believe in any 102 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: way shape, matter of form. I don't believe that that 103 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: story is over. You want real Russia collusion. How is 104 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:01,719 Speaker 1: it possible on that story that you and investigate. Well, 105 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: where did the hundred and forty five million dollars come from? 106 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 1: That what funneled into the Clinton Foundation? She gives one 107 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 1: of nine waivers on the issue of Vladimir Putin and 108 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: Russia getting up to our uranium, which is the foundational 109 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: material for nuclear weapons. How's that not a bigger story? 110 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: Then you got James Comey. Sarah Carter broke a story 111 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: last week where the Chief Council of the FBI, just 112 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: like Comey, is being investigated for leaks. I am told 113 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:39,039 Speaker 1: by my sources there are numerous Clinton people, I'm sorry, 114 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: Obama people that are going to be outed, high ranking 115 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: people as being involved in the unmasking and potentially intelligence leaking. 116 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,919 Speaker 1: This is all coming in days and weeks. Republicans have 117 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: been impotent in terms of using again the power of 118 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 1: the authority that you gave them to call and demand 119 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: special counsels to use their subpoena powers, to use their 120 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: investigative tools to get to the bottom of real crimes. 121 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 1: And then you got Loretta Lynch the tarmac. It's it's 122 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: not an investigation in any way, it's a matter. And 123 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 1: followed by Hillary and the emails and the and the 124 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 1: emails in the bathroom closet. But it turns out the 125 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: emails in the bathroom closet were not designed so she 126 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 1: could have the convenience of one device, because she had 127 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 1: sixteen devices and many of them were smashed with hammers, 128 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: so the FBI could never have access to them, and 129 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: the two that she finally sent over to the FBI 130 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: didn't have sim cards. This is the this is now 131 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: the circumstances under which we are operating in this country. 132 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: And then you have you know, how does Donald Trump 133 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: govern with a Republican party that some of whom have 134 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: gone to war with him? You got two Arizona senators 135 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 1: that have no intention of helping Donald Trump, John McCain 136 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: being the decide being vote against you know, the skinny 137 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 1: repeal bill that was was attempted last week. I mean 138 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: that's somebody. Then you've got Jeff Flake. GOP lost its 139 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: way given into nativism, xenophobia. That's sort of like John 140 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 1: McCain saying that our inaction is there, you know, means 141 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 1: of making money. They can go straight to hell. Those 142 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 1: hosts on radio and TV, they go straight to hell. 143 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 1: Well what if I ever said that about John McCain 144 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 1: or anybody else? Well, okay with I How would people 145 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 1: deal with that? So now you've got what what does 146 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 1: this all prove? What I'm saying that You've got the 147 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: deep state, the Democratic Party, a corrupt media that's only 148 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: interested in palace intrigue process and Russia and not covering 149 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: real stories, deep state Democratic Party media, Republicans, and the 150 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 1: President is trying to advance the agenda. How to three senators, 151 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 1: three of them? How do they possibly get in the 152 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: way and hold the entire, the entire Republican Party platform hostage? 153 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: How is that? I've got a lot to say about it. 154 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 1: The President this weekend was right to say and challenge 155 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell. Mitch McConnell is out there saying it's time 156 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: to move on from appealing and replacing Obamaca. No, it's not. 157 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: I say there are four things you Republicans in Washington. 158 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: You better get your ass an act together, and you 159 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 1: better get done. You better do something on healthcare because 160 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 1: it's imploding. And as the President pointed out, Americans are 161 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 1: suffering greatly because of of the disaster that is Obamacare. 162 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: People in Arizona, Senator Flake and Senator McCain saw a 163 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: hundred and six increase this year alone. That's a lot. 164 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: Then you've got, as the President said this week, if 165 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 1: Obamacare is hurting people, why does Congress exempt itself? And 166 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: I think Congress should un exempt itself. And I when 167 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 1: the President tweeted out, don't give up Republican senators. The 168 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 1: world is watching, and I'm up a pen in hand. 169 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: I'm ready to do this. And then he said, unless 170 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:15,839 Speaker 1: the Republican senators are total quitters, repeal and replaces not dead. 171 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: Demand another vote before voting on any other bill. I 172 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 1: the President's right. The president has an identity, he has 173 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: an agenda. You know. He wants to vet refugees from 174 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 1: countries like the practice Sharif. Smart thing to do. He 175 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: wants to build the wall, smart thing to do. He 176 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: wants education sent back to the States. Smart thing to do. 177 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: He's lifted Obama error regulations. Smart thing to do. He's 178 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 1: moving the country towards energy independence. We got millions of 179 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: high paying career jobs. It's smart for that reason, and 180 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,959 Speaker 1: then it's smart because it's the lifeblood our our economy 181 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: and countries that hatos we will no longer be dependent on. Yes, 182 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: he wants a replacement bill for Obamacare and wants it repealed. 183 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 1: He wants that. He wants tax cuts for the middle class, 184 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 1: he wants it for corporate America. He wants repatriated trillions 185 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: from multinationals. What is this Republican Party stand for except 186 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 1: they're fighting him, like the media, the Democrats, and the 187 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: deep state, and that includes the never trumpers. You know, 188 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: Moe Brooks said, if McConnell can't get this done, he's 189 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 1: not gonna vote for him if he's elected to the Senate. Well, 190 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:26,559 Speaker 1: that's why I support Mob Brooks to replace Jeff Sessions 191 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:31,719 Speaker 1: in Alabama. And what is the reaction of of Senator McConnell, all, 192 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: Senator McConnell of political rights, the pieces waging war to 193 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 1: get rid of poor Jeff Session, poor Mob Brooks. So 194 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 1: he doesn't replace Jeff Sessions. Wow, he wants to move 195 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: on from Obamacare. Well, it's not gonna help any American 196 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: that is suffering right now anyway. So Moe Brooks said, 197 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 1: if McConnell can't get it done, he needs to step down. 198 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 1: I agree with Moe Brooks, and that goes for everybody 199 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 1: you know in Great Britain, and National Health Service is 200 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 1: planning brutal cutbacks in health care availability. They already deny 201 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: if you're above a certain age and you've reached your 202 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: life expectancy, good luck. If you're older in need a 203 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,199 Speaker 1: hip replacement or a knee replacement, or any real serious 204 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 1: medical care, because their attitude as well, you've you've already 205 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: lived beyond your life expectancy. Now with the Senator, they're 206 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: gonna go on vacation, they're gonna take an August recess. 207 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 1: They still haven't even made the appointment. So Donald Trump 208 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: coues have his own government. And Trump has threatened to 209 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 1: yank Congress's gold plated health benefits. I hope he does 210 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: if it's not passed quickly. He goes on that the 211 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 1: members of Congress their bailout should end, their platinum plan 212 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: should end. There should be never any bill passed by 213 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 1: Congress that they themselves are not subject to. And remember 214 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 1: there was a trillion dollars in savings that they were 215 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: counting on. For the President's economic plan, and the OMB 216 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: director Mulvaaney is saying the Senate needs to fix it. 217 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 1: But is that then impacts what they're able to do 218 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,680 Speaker 1: with the President's economic plan to get jobs back. But 219 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 1: don't worry, it's people like me that Hell with people 220 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 1: like me, Hell with us. As John McCain said, there 221 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 1: in our inaction as their economic opportunity center. I've been 222 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: laying out solutions on this program for years, and now 223 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 1: how does the president get his promises done? When Republicans 224 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,439 Speaker 1: like guess are so self destructive, they need to start 225 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 1: doing their job. And I'm gonna lay out every day 226 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: what their job is because they don't apparently know. And 227 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: then how do you balance solving the country's problems and 228 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 1: also dealing with the massive amount of lawbreaking and corruption, 229 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 1: Because if you don't deal with that, well, that means 230 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 1: in America we have a two tier justice system and 231 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: we don't have equal justice under the law. I'll get 232 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: to that when we come back. We'll get to North Korea. 233 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: I want to tell you a story about General Kelly, 234 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 1: the new chief of staff who is taking in Who's 235 00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 1: up today in his first day in the job. So 236 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 1: many stories to get to today. Yeah, weak Republicans both 237 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 1: on the agenda promises and week on the use of 238 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 1: the power you gave them to keep equal justice under 239 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 1: the law. Then of course we got North Korea and 240 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: they emerged real clear present danger with no good options 241 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: that we're gonna get to in the course of it. 242 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 1: And he got real corruption in the Democratic Party. Finally, 243 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 1: there are some House Republicans beginning to move on that. 244 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 1: And that is only the beginning. And how does the 245 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: president govern against people in his own party that don't 246 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: want him to succeed. I want to talk for a 247 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: second about General John Kelly, the new chief of Staff. 248 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 1: I don't know him. I don't remember meeting him, but 249 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 1: I meet a lot of people. I don't remember ever 250 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: meeting him. But there was a story that was in 251 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: the Washington Post. I know I have to read it, 252 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 1: so you don't ever have to touch it. But this weekend, 253 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: and he gave a speech four days after his twenty 254 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: nine year old son was killed. He was a platoon 255 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 1: leader of Marines in uh in southern Afghanistan. He was 256 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: killed instantly when he stepped on a landmine. Four years later, 257 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 1: four days later, he was giving a speech he had 258 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 1: one request. Don't mention my son, he asked the Marine 259 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: Corps officer introducing him. He didn't once refer to his 260 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 1: son's death, and he delivered some of the most passionate, 261 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 1: passionate words of what are military does to sacrifice for us? 262 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: It tells a lot about this man. And he talked 263 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: about the military's isolation, growing isolation from society. Quote, their 264 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 1: struggle is your struggle, he said, as it was a 265 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: room full of Marines, local business people. They knew we 266 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 1: just lost his son four days earlier. If anyone thinks 267 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 1: you can somehow thank them for this service and not 268 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 1: support the cause which they fight our country, these people 269 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 1: are lying to themselves. More important, they are slighting our 270 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 1: warriors and mocking their commitment of this nation, he went 271 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: on to say. And then he did this as he 272 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: he got a long ovation on all of this, and 273 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: he didn't want to be separated or paid attention to 274 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 1: the fact that he lost his son. And he said, well, 275 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: we are only one of five thousand, five hundred American 276 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 1: families who had suffered the loss of a child in 277 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 1: this war. When he answered an email about it, the 278 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: death of my boy simply cannot be made to seem 279 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 1: any more tragic than the other soldiers. That's the guy 280 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: who is now the new chief of staff for the 281 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: President of the United States. I mean, an amazing story 282 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: about an amazing man who also reminds us something I've 283 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: been telling you. We can no longer send fifty eight 284 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: thousand men to die in Vietnam and then lose the 285 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 1: war and give up because it's politicized in Iraq and Afghanistan. 286 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:59,560 Speaker 1: Five thousand, five hundred, and then Obama pulls out. We 287 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: didn't get the full victory. I will not support military 288 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 1: action again in my life unless this country stops politicizing warfare. 289 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 1: It is morally repugnant that we've done this to the military. 290 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: He never stops working for the good of the country. 291 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:45,880 Speaker 1: Sean Hannity with behind the scenes information on today's breaking news. 292 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 1: Hannity is on right now now till the top of 293 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 1: the Shawn.

But you said that person 298 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 1: knows General Kelly, and she said the story that was 299 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: in the Washington Post is a thousand percent true. That 300 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 1: this guy is a literally a real discipline military guy 301 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 1: that is top notch, and he will bring order to 302 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:23,920 Speaker 1: the White House, and that there's no if sens or butts. 303 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,200 Speaker 1: That's what and New told me the same thing earlier today. 304 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 1: He'll join us in the next hour at the top 305 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: of the next hour. He's known General Kelly for a 306 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 1: long time too, So yeah, I mean, we're hearing, we're 307 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 1: hearing nothing but good things about General Kelly, and that 308 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 1: he's all about order and sticking to the rules and 309 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,879 Speaker 1: playing by the book and being patriot and fair to 310 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: our president. So can you imagine not one he loses 311 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 1: his son, gives a speech four days later four and says, 312 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 1: don't mention my son. We were only one of five thousand, 313 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 1: five hundred American families who suffered the loss of a 314 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:57,120 Speaker 1: child in this war, and the death of my boy 315 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,639 Speaker 1: simply cannot be made to seem any more tragic than 316 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 1: the others. You know, I don't know. I mean, I 317 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: made me almost wanted to just a steer up here 318 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: in it. And that's the same thing we've known though 319 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,879 Speaker 1: for a long time, haven't we. That's the same reason 320 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 1: we did the concerts for the military and the families 321 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:17,199 Speaker 1: that we met, one after another after another that lost 322 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:22,120 Speaker 1: their their fathers and mothers in this war that they 323 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: were there fighting for all the right reasons. And then 324 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 1: just like Vietnam, But never mind. How do you say 325 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 1: never mind to a family that gave up and lost 326 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: a loved one. How do you say never mind to 327 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:37,919 Speaker 1: the men and women we've met without arms and legs 328 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: and and the disfigurement that they will live with for 329 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 1: the rest of their lives.

Hey, Linda, all the years we've been together, 347 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 1: have you ever seen me order seafood? Except once? I 348 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:40,879 Speaker 1: might grab a shrimp if it's at the time. I 349 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,439 Speaker 1: actually never even seen you do that. I might go 350 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,480 Speaker 1: if there's enough butter that I can drench it with butter. 351 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:50,120 Speaker 1: I could do that, but that's not what I ordered. 352 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 1: Pork chops and steak, steak and pork chops, pork chops 353 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,159 Speaker 1: and steaks, steak and pork chops and bacon if they 354 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: have bacon, and burgers.

So anyway, I um, 359 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 1: I am going to tell you another thing, because the 360 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 1: media narrative is I mean, all they want to do 361 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 1: is cover process and cover the Palace intrigue, and cover Russia. 362 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 1: That's all they care about. How is it that the 363 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:31,120 Speaker 1: media doesn't care about the Wasserman Schultz scandal. I don't 364 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 1: even think it's if you want to know what I 365 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 1: mean that they're so biased. Now we've learned some interesting information. 366 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:42,120 Speaker 1: And Andrew the Politano a fox. You know, he's been 367 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:46,360 Speaker 1: proven right on a number of occasions when they excoriated 368 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 1: him in the media, Well, he made the point that 369 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 1: the computer Technics i T guy um is now under 370 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:59,160 Speaker 1: investigation for selling sensitive information he found in the emails 371 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: of Democratic how members. But that's only a small part 372 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 1: of it. Why did Debbie Wasson and Shoults keep this 373 00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 1: guy on when they knew he had double billed? This 374 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 1: guy had to have some knowledge that she didn't want 375 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 1: him to talk about. How is it the people that 376 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 1: worked at McDonald's had no i T qualifications were being 377 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 1: paid up to four million dollars now, congressional leaders, I 378 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,359 Speaker 1: guess on the heels of last week's letter, why do 379 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: you think I've been hammering this so hard on the 380 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 1: issue of open up the investigations into Hillary Clintons server, 381 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton's emails, James Comey, Loretta Lynch, Ukrainian influence in 382 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 1: our election, and certainly the Uranium one deal. And now 383 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 1: we've got the Chief Council for the FBI being investigated. 384 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,400 Speaker 1: And now we're going to here in the next week 385 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: or two top names in the Obama administration involved in 386 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 1: unmasking and involved in intelligence leaking. This is getting bigger 387 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 1: by the day. And so you know, leading members of 388 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: the House Judiciary are finally a government oversight committee are 389 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:11,920 Speaker 1: finally gonna launch investigations into Debbie Wassonon Schultz the elicit 390 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,400 Speaker 1: I T activity. And that could be meaning what I've 391 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 1: been saying. Put Debbie Wassonman Schultz under oath. Put Loretta 392 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 1: Lynch under oath. Put Hillary Clinton, John Podesta, put that 393 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 1: uh uh chelupo woman under oath. Put Robbie Muke under oath. 394 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: Put Jennifer Palmary under oath, whatever her name is, and 395 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 1: put them all under oath. And bringing those people that 396 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,159 Speaker 1: donated the money to the hundred forty five million to 397 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,920 Speaker 1: the Clinton Foundation, put them under oath. Put Hillary under oath. 398 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 1: Put people at the Foundation under oath. Put people at 399 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 1: the server place under oath. I'm trying to try to 400 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 1: put this fusion GPS people under oath. I've never seen 401 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,679 Speaker 1: such corruption. The meeting does not care about the truth. 402 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 1: You know. There was one right admission in the Washington Post, 403 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 1: of all places, I guess health reasons over once in 404 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: a lifetime because they published an op ed acknowledging in 405 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 1: the Washington Post. The Democrats Russia Gate investigation had laid 406 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 1: a big fat goose egg nothing, you know, while everyone's 407 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:16,880 Speaker 1: fixated on President Trump, and he was critical of Jeff's sessions. 408 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 1: Apparently Jeff's sessions were beginning to see might have been 409 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 1: more involved in investigating these things than anybody knew, which 410 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 1: is what my hope is, because otherwise we have a 411 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 1: two tier justice system. And for all the breathless hype, 412 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 1: you know, and the furrowed brows and the hopes that 413 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 1: this could be Watergate and Saturday Night massacre analogies, well, 414 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 1: Jared Kushner's statement and testimony before Congress, apparently behind closed doors, 415 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: made many Democrats and even many in the media realized 416 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,720 Speaker 1: that there is no collusion or there there and as 417 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:53,160 Speaker 1: of the date of all of this, the media thought that, oh, Kushner, 418 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 1: this is it. Well, it's clear, precise, eleven page memo 419 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:03,119 Speaker 1: basically put to rest whole thing. And at some point 420 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,679 Speaker 1: when this is exposed as a fraud, when are we 421 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: gonna when is the media gonna have to be accountable 422 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:14,159 Speaker 1: for what they have done here in their desire to 423 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 1: advance an ideology and agenda and destroy a sitting president 424 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:22,640 Speaker 1: and overturn the election of the American people. That's what's 425 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 1: at stake here. Kimberly straussel over at the Wall Street 426 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 1: Journal pointing out Congressional Democrats are suddenly desperate to protect 427 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 1: Fusion GPS. That's that op research firm that was used 428 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 1: by Hillary's campaign, you know, to compile the infamous Golden 429 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: Shower hookers peeing on a bed in the rits in 430 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:50,199 Speaker 1: in Moscow, Docier, which was full of paid individuals from Russia. Anyway, 431 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,199 Speaker 1: it's been you know, Democrats got their glorious news that 432 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,879 Speaker 1: you know, oh, Donald Trump Jr. And Jared Kushner, we're 433 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 1: gonna be testifying their salivating watching Trump insiders. Yet now 434 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: the Democrats are kind of retreating, you know. Now they 435 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,120 Speaker 1: don't want, For example, they want to talk about Russia collusion. 436 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 1: What about Fusion GPS? What about this op research? Who 437 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 1: paid them behind the infamous, this credited Trump dossier jinned 438 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:22,199 Speaker 1: up by the former m I six British spy and 439 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 1: Fusion co founder. Glenn Simpson's supposed to testified the grass 440 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 1: Lely Hearing where he would be asked in public to 441 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 1: reveal who hired him to put together the phony dossier 442 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 1: on Trump? Also do they know was false? Also? Were 443 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:41,399 Speaker 1: Democrats involved? Also did they know that that the source 444 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 1: of the m I six agent were Russians? Turns out 445 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 1: Russians apparently are everywhere, and Democrats are willing to give 446 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 1: up just about anything to apparently protect Mr Simpson. You 447 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,360 Speaker 1: know what if in all this time, the media has 448 00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:00,439 Speaker 1: known the Russia collusion story is wrong, and I've been 449 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 1: saying they've had it asked backwards. I've been telling you this. 450 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,399 Speaker 1: You know, the Democrats that it wasn't the Trump campaign 451 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:12,399 Speaker 1: that was close to the Vladimir regime. And it makes 452 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 1: sense that Vladimir wanted Hillary the week reset Obama. Saint tell, Tell, Tell, 453 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,880 Speaker 1: tell Vladimir that I'm gonna have a lot more flexibility 454 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 1: of the illustrics. Yes, more flexible. Lets the listener un listen, Yeah, 455 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 1: I have more flexibility. William Browder, a banker who worked 456 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 1: to expose Putin's crimes, testified at the grass Lee Committee 457 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 1: late last week. He was the target of a similar campaign, 458 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:50,479 Speaker 1: saying that Fusion GPS spread false information about him and 459 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:54,399 Speaker 1: his efforts. Oh wait a minute, and Fusion admitted it 460 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 1: was hired by a law firm representing a Russia company 461 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 1: called prevos On, And they employed one of Russia, one 462 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:06,240 Speaker 1: of the Russian operatives who are at Trump Tower last year, 463 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 1: and the other Russian who attended that meeting. Whoopsie Daisy. 464 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 1: Just like I think at the end of it, I 465 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 1: would suspect that the money that was paid to the 466 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 1: Clinton Foundation. I want to know where that money came from. 467 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 1: I want to know where the Canadians got it. I 468 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,200 Speaker 1: want to know if it was whitewashed or what do 469 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 1: they call money laundered. I want to know answers to 470 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 1: these questions. It was just investigative questions. I'm asking questions, 471 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:33,639 Speaker 1: and I want to know why all of a sudden 472 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 1: they don't want to touch this with a ten foot 473 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 1: poll because they know this goes right back to This 474 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 1: goes right back to Hillary and Russia, not Trump and Russia. 475 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: It's been wrong the whole time. The entire narrative is 476 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: dead wrong. Now the House Judiciary is asking for a 477 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: special counsel for Clinton and call me and Lynch a 478 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,479 Speaker 1: little late, but I'm glad you're there so we can 479 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 1: investigate the Attorney General directing call me to say to 480 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 1: lie to the American people. It's not in instigation, it's 481 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 1: a matter or the meeting on the tarmac, would Bill 482 00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 1: Clinton days before the decision? Or the concern about a 483 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 1: two tier justice system, and certainly Clinton's mishandling of classified, 484 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 1: top secret and special Access program information and the destruction 485 00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: of such the FBI and d j's investigative decision related 486 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: to Hillary Clinton. Could it be others had a conflict 487 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 1: of interest here, that Hillary knew too much and that 488 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 1: Hillary threatened to go scorched dirt on people.

However, we have the highest 555 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 1: stock market in history. We have g d P on 556 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 1: Friday got very little mentioned, or I guess in the 557 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 1: business areas that did, But god, I think very little mentioned. 558 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 1: Two point six is a number that nobody thought they'd 559 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 1: see for a long period of time. Remember I was 560 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 1: saying we will hit three at some point in the 561 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 1: not too distant future, and everybody smiled and they laughed, 562 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: and they thought it would be at one. And two 563 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 1: point six is an unbelievable number, and now it's on Friday. 564 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 1: Unemployment is the lowest it's been in seventeen years. Business 565 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 1: enthusiasm is about as high as they've ever seen it. 566 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:13,759 Speaker 1: In fact, it is as high the highest point in 567 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:16,839 Speaker 1: twenty eight years. According to a certain who have had 568 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:21,879 Speaker 1: a certain charte Uh, the manufacturers are the enthusiasm level 569 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 1: is incredible. A lot of tremendous things going. We have 570 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:30,480 Speaker 1: some interesting situations that will handle North Korea, Middle East, 571 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:35,840 Speaker 1: lots of problems that we inherited from previous administrations, but 572 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:37,799 Speaker 1: we'll take care of them, to take care of them 573 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 1: very well. But overall, I think we're doing incredibly well. 574 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:47,720 Speaker 1: The economy is doing incredibly well, and many other things. 575 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:51,240 Speaker 1: So we're starting from a really good base. I predict 576 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,960 Speaker 1: that General Kelly will go down in terms of the 577 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:58,439 Speaker 1: position of Chief of Staff one of the great ever 578 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 1: and are going to have a good time. But much 579 00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 1: more importantly, we're gonna work hard and we're going to 580 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:08,960 Speaker 1: make America great again. It's all about making America great again. 581 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:10,719 Speaker 1: That's what we're going to do. That's what I said. 582 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:13,839 Speaker 1: That's how we won this big election, and that's what 583 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:18,320 Speaker 1: we're in the process of doing and continuing.

All weekend long, 593 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,200 Speaker 1: the President is saying, hey, Congress, get your act together. 594 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 1: As I mentioned in the last hour, get Obamacare done, 595 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,839 Speaker 1: and saying, why should Congress not have the same care 596 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,919 Speaker 1: as every American? And why would you give up for 597 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,920 Speaker 1: seven years you've been and promising this. I'm ready to 598 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 1: sign the bill tomorrow. And we've got a new chief 599 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,719 Speaker 1: of staff and that is General Kelly. I mean, I 600 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:09,920 Speaker 1: was reading in the Washington Post this weekend. I know 601 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:11,680 Speaker 1: I hate the paper, but I was reading it. But 602 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:15,279 Speaker 1: the story about General Kelly was one of it was unbelievable. 603 00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 1: Four days after his son was killed in Afghanistan, he 604 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:22,360 Speaker 1: actually gave a speech to a crowd in St. Louis 605 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:26,280 Speaker 1: with one request, please don't mention my son. In the speech, 606 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:29,040 Speaker 1: he said, their struggle, meaning the military, is your struggle. 607 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:31,839 Speaker 1: If anyone thinks you can somehow thank them for their 608 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,560 Speaker 1: service and not support the cause for which they fight 609 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 1: our country while these people are lying to themselves, and 610 00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:41,280 Speaker 1: more importantly, they're slighting all warriors and mocking their commitment 611 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 1: to this nation. And what he said about his own 612 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 1: son that he lost, we were only one of fifty 613 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:49,240 Speaker 1: American families who had suffered the loss of a child 614 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 1: in this war, and the death of my boy simply 615 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:56,400 Speaker 1: cannot be made to seem any more tragic than the others. Wow. 616 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:58,880 Speaker 1: New king Ridge knows him very well. He joins us now, 617 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,160 Speaker 1: former Speaker of the How how long have you known 618 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 1: General Kelly? I think we first met. He had been 619 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: at the National Defense University. He was a lieutenant colonel, 620 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:10,880 Speaker 1: and he came over and became a colonel and for 621 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 1: four years was the Chief Marine Corps liaison to the 622 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 1: House while I was Speaker. We traveled together. He is 623 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,879 Speaker 1: a brilliant guy. I really like him very much, and 624 00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:22,840 Speaker 1: I think he will be a great chief of staff. 625 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:25,360 Speaker 1: All right, let me ask you. There's a lot of articles, 626 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,760 Speaker 1: a lot of things that the President was tweeting this weekend. 627 00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 1: You know the world is watching. He said, repeal and replaced, 628 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:33,840 Speaker 1: go to fifty one votes, get rid of the nuclear option. 629 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:35,880 Speaker 1: In other words, I agree with him on all of that. 630 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:37,879 Speaker 1: And by the way, Congress shouldn't have a separate plan 631 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:40,839 Speaker 1: from anybody. He said, don't give up on Obamacare. Then 632 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,359 Speaker 1: you've got Moe Brooks said, if if Mitch McConnell can't 633 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:45,440 Speaker 1: get this done, he ought to go and Mitch McConnell. 634 00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:48,319 Speaker 1: He says, it's time to move on from repealing Obamacare. 635 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 1: What does your take on all of this mess that 636 00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:54,000 Speaker 1: they created? Well, first of all, and then this is 637 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 1: my newsletter that's going to come out on Wednesday at 638 00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 1: English Productions. I think it's important to remember that forever 639 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 1: Republican who voted to know there were sixteen Democrats. For 640 00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:06,560 Speaker 1: the three Republicans voted, know there were ten Democrats and 641 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 1: states that Trump carried who are up for re election 642 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 1: next year who voted now. So part of my caution 643 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:16,120 Speaker 1: to my conservative friends and my Republican friends is spent 644 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 1: a lot more of your energy beating the ten Democrats 645 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,320 Speaker 1: and you're gonna have a margin for error which you 646 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:22,880 Speaker 1: don't you don't have right now, um, which is we 647 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:27,399 Speaker 1: just proved that even trying to pass things, they can't 648 00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 1: do it right now because on a lot of these 649 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:31,839 Speaker 1: close issues are not going to get one. And that's 650 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,279 Speaker 1: that's going to continue to be true until they learned 651 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 1: to go to the country. You know, Reagan understood that 652 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,920 Speaker 1: if you got the country excited, the country would would 653 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:42,719 Speaker 1: force the Congress to cooperate. And as they start to 654 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,120 Speaker 1: look for example of the tax that program. My real 655 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:47,480 Speaker 1: number one concern is to get them to have the 656 00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:50,400 Speaker 1: kind of tax cuts you can explain back home. So 657 00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 1: people go to the town home meeting and or they 658 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,279 Speaker 1: go on call talk radio, or they gone letters editor 659 00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 1: and they say, I really want this uh. And then 660 00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:00,239 Speaker 1: it's going to all of a sudden be very easy 661 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 1: to pass, and you're gonna have Democrats to vote for it. 662 00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 1: So part of it is I would just do this 663 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:07,680 Speaker 1: whole thing differently. Where they are right now. I think 664 00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 1: they are to break you the bill up into five 665 00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: or six different bills, write each of them to be 666 00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:16,319 Speaker 1: extraordinarily popular, drive him through, taunt the Democrats into voting though, 667 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:18,799 Speaker 1: and either get the Democrats to vote yes and help 668 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 1: pass him or beat him in the two thousand and 669 00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:23,319 Speaker 1: eighteen election. How About how about Mr McConnell not go 670 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 1: on vacation for August. How about they stay and do 671 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:28,480 Speaker 1: their job. Well, I think he's already indicated they're going 672 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,319 Speaker 1: to stay until they get most of the president's appointees 673 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 1: uh confirmed. And I think under the pressure of that, 674 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:37,439 Speaker 1: the Democrats are actually starting to agree to move something. 675 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:40,920 Speaker 1: I mean, it is. It's truly disgraceful how much Schumer 676 00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 1: and the Democrats have blocked just simply being able to 677 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:47,359 Speaker 1: fill up the Defense Department, Homeland Security, Justice, you name 678 00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:51,000 Speaker 1: it with with what would normally have been under Obama 679 00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:54,840 Speaker 1: or under George W. Bush, just done almost automatically. Obama 680 00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:59,160 Speaker 1: actually got seventy nine nominees cleared in one week in 681 00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:01,960 Speaker 1: July of two thousand nine. And this has been a 682 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:04,839 Speaker 1: deliberate effort to stall the government and to slow down 683 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 1: the rate of change. And I think the McConnell's now 684 00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:11,320 Speaker 1: calling Schumer's bluff on this, So we'll see how that works. 685 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:13,359 Speaker 1: But the other side of it is, and I think 686 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,359 Speaker 1: you probably you know, I probably just don't agree on this. 687 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:18,439 Speaker 1: They can revote this twenty times. The fact is they're 688 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 1: not going to get McConnell. I mean, they're not going 689 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 1: to get McCain, they're not going to get mccollskey, and 690 00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 1: they're not going to get um. How do they get 691 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,760 Speaker 1: to hold the whole party hostage to the major promise 692 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,319 Speaker 1: they made and they themselves made all three of those, 693 00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 1: well except with the exception of Susan Collins. I mean, 694 00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:38,279 Speaker 1: Collins has been very consistent and I've always separated her out. Well, 695 00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 1: remember that the first of all, remember that mccowsky is 696 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:43,880 Speaker 1: a very tough infighter who actually lost the primary and 697 00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 1: came back and won her seat uh in a write, 698 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,600 Speaker 1: So she's pretty hard to intimidate. And of course McCain 699 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:52,400 Speaker 1: got reelected and he's eighty years old. He's gonna do 700 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:54,600 Speaker 1: what he thinks he ought to do. Period. You can 701 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 1: you can agree or disagree. I'm with you. I think 702 00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:00,080 Speaker 1: when somebody campaigns for seven years, and I remember that 703 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:03,640 Speaker 1: John McCain, for example, actually ran a commercial talking about 704 00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 1: how he wanted to repeal Obamacare, I mean, I do 705 00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:08,120 Speaker 1: think there's some point here where he should have voted 706 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 1: yes not no. I don't. I don't and I are 707 00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:12,719 Speaker 1: on the same side about that. My point, though, is 708 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:15,719 Speaker 1: is a practical matter that I do think they can 709 00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:17,480 Speaker 1: get a lot of this stuff past. I think they 710 00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:21,040 Speaker 1: can actually package it in smaller boxes rather than trying 711 00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 1: to do one gigantic bill. They have a plan between 712 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:27,560 Speaker 1: now and Christmas four to six health bills, each of 713 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 1: them designed to be popular things you and I believe in, 714 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:33,319 Speaker 1: for example, health savings accounts. There's there's no reason that 715 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:36,240 Speaker 1: can't be sold to the American people as a really 716 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 1: positive thing to do. You know what, you know, what's amazing. 717 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,920 Speaker 1: You had the health care solution. I forgot healthcare. What 718 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:47,120 Speaker 1: did you call your group? I forget healthcare? Wrote a book. 719 00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 1: I wrote a book called saving lives and Saving money right, 720 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:52,239 Speaker 1: And I remember you and I I don't think there's 721 00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:54,359 Speaker 1: been a year in the twenty five years I've I've 722 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:56,279 Speaker 1: known you that at some point we didn't talk at 723 00:41:56,360 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 1: length about solutions like health savings accounts and cooperatives. I 724 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:02,920 Speaker 1: personally believe this. I want to ask a bigger picture. 725 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 1: I think that if Republicans get the promises completed, get 726 00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:09,160 Speaker 1: the economy moving. I like your idea about making the 727 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:11,879 Speaker 1: President's tax plan, tax cuts for the middle class, tax 728 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:15,359 Speaker 1: cuts for corporations, repatriation all retroactive. I think that helps 729 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:18,120 Speaker 1: the economy, brings jobs back. If they build three miles 730 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 1: of the wall, they repeal and replace, and they get 731 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:23,440 Speaker 1: energy moving. I think everybody gets re elected, no problem. 732 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:26,239 Speaker 1: But I'm also very upset with the Republicans, not only 733 00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:29,239 Speaker 1: that they can't move legislation, that the Democrats got a 734 00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:33,080 Speaker 1: special counsel, and the strangest of circumstances, Hillary Clinton is 735 00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:37,560 Speaker 1: smashing blackberries and iPhones, you know, because she doesn't want 736 00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:39,840 Speaker 1: to hand them over. She has a private email server 737 00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:43,480 Speaker 1: misshandled classified top secret information and destroyed it. Then the 738 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:46,640 Speaker 1: Uranium one deal, then the Ukrainians trying to influence the election, 739 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:49,440 Speaker 1: then Lauretta Lynch, and now the latest of Debbie Wassonman 740 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:52,320 Speaker 1: Schultz in this nutty I T guy with an ankle 741 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 1: brace the three hundred thousand dollars trying to take off 742 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:57,880 Speaker 1: to Pakistan after he destroyed hard drives. Well, yeah, this 743 00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:00,480 Speaker 1: is one that I really think he will need to 744 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 1: look at. And I'm going to start taunting the New 745 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:04,840 Speaker 1: York Times and the Washington Post and others about covering 746 00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 1: this thing. You have here a going all the way 747 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 1: back to two thousand and four. House Democrats were involved 748 00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:14,719 Speaker 1: with a bunch of Pakistani's who have been paid millions 749 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:19,000 Speaker 1: and millions of dollars working on information technology. And I'll 750 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 1: think about this. These are guys. In one case, Um, 751 00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:24,200 Speaker 1: one of the people that they're connected to was seen 752 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:27,279 Speaker 1: by the CIA and by route conversing with Hezbollah. Um, 753 00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:32,040 Speaker 1: the relationships are really truly weird. Uh. They apparently since 754 00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:35,279 Speaker 1: two thousand and ten, the family has collectively paid four 755 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 1: million dollars in taxpayer money, UM running i T which 756 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,560 Speaker 1: means they had access to all sorts of official records 757 00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,359 Speaker 1: in the US House. Um the wife of the key 758 00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:49,880 Speaker 1: figure has has fled to Pakistan and get stopped by 759 00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 1: the FBI. It just goes on and on. It's unbelievable 760 00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:56,800 Speaker 1: to me. And again, the Republicans don't use their power 761 00:43:56,840 --> 00:44:00,359 Speaker 1: of subpoena. They're not well, they're only finally as asday 762 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,640 Speaker 1: asking for special counsels and and they're not getting things 763 00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:06,000 Speaker 1: done legislatively. Or I can say, oh, they were busy, 764 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:10,279 Speaker 1: it's not like they're busy, you know, accomplishing and achieving 765 00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:13,319 Speaker 1: the promises they made to us. Well, look, this is 766 00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 1: a place where the House Judiciary Committee is a huge 767 00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:21,000 Speaker 1: opportunity to step in because everything we're learning here involves 768 00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 1: not only theft in a grand scale, but also involves 769 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:28,400 Speaker 1: the whole question of whether or not this is an 770 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:31,759 Speaker 1: intelligence collapse. And the more you look at it, the 771 00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:33,920 Speaker 1: stranger it gets. All Right, the new king Ridge is 772 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:35,600 Speaker 1: with us. We're going to continue on the other side. 773 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 1: I want to get to the issue of balancing legislative 774 00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:42,840 Speaker 1: accomplishments and promises and also fighting so we don't have 775 00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,480 Speaker 1: a two tier justice system in the country, and that 776 00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 1: means using the power of subpoena and certainly the appointment 777 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 1: of a special counsel in the case of all of 778 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,680 Speaker 1: these scandals that the media is ignoring on the Democrats. 779 00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:04,279 Speaker 1: Right as we continue with former Speaker of the House 780 00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:06,880 Speaker 1: new King Ridge. By the way, his book Understanding Trump 781 00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:09,000 Speaker 1: has now been went nearly up to ten weeks on 782 00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:11,279 Speaker 1: the New York Times List, debewing at number one on 783 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:13,880 Speaker 1: the list, which is a great tribute to you, Mr Speaker. 784 00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:17,600 Speaker 1: So I'm looking at Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Hillary Clinton, I'm 785 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:20,439 Speaker 1: looking at the Ukraine influence in the election. Loretta Lynch 786 00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:22,880 Speaker 1: James called me now the General Council, the FBI is 787 00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:25,920 Speaker 1: being investigated for leaking. I mean, it's unbelievable. And then 788 00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:28,440 Speaker 1: Uranium one, which I think is by far the worst 789 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:31,000 Speaker 1: scandal because there was a real quid pro quo. And 790 00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:33,680 Speaker 1: I want to balance what the Republicans ought to be doing, 791 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:36,400 Speaker 1: and that's getting their act together. It's August, and getting 792 00:45:36,440 --> 00:45:39,560 Speaker 1: their job done, and and finishing their promises and making 793 00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:43,440 Speaker 1: true good to their promises, and also balancing fundamental fairness 794 00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:46,080 Speaker 1: and our justice system. Well, look, I think that there's 795 00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:48,279 Speaker 1: a lot of work to be done. I think in 796 00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:51,480 Speaker 1: some areas you're beginning to see real momentum. You may 797 00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:55,200 Speaker 1: have noticed the Attorney General Sessions has announced the dramatic 798 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:59,160 Speaker 1: increase in prosecutions about the people who are leaking and 799 00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:03,279 Speaker 1: the violating classification and and and leaking our secrets, which 800 00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 1: is a step in the right direction. I think that 801 00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:09,520 Speaker 1: this whole question of the imbalance, both of press coverage 802 00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:14,520 Speaker 1: and of congressional injustice privent activity between the the efforts 803 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:17,759 Speaker 1: to smear President Trump and the very real problems that 804 00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 1: we now know. I mean this the w Wasson and 805 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:22,200 Speaker 1: shut star and she was, after all the head of 806 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 1: the Democratic National Committee in the big supporter of hillaries. Uh. 807 00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:27,160 Speaker 1: You know, the fact is that there are hundreds of 808 00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:30,320 Speaker 1: thousands of dollars stolen here that that we know are real. 809 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:32,239 Speaker 1: I mean, this is not what we know. We know 810 00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:34,400 Speaker 1: they double build, the double build the whole time. And 811 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:36,280 Speaker 1: we know that there are people in this guy's family 812 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:38,799 Speaker 1: that had no business on that job or access to 813 00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 1: our secrets. That's right. And so you so you have 814 00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:44,160 Speaker 1: to stop and ask yourself, Uh, you know, why is it? 815 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:46,600 Speaker 1: For first of all, why did she keep him around? 816 00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:48,080 Speaker 1: So long and I met him to think probably she 817 00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:50,480 Speaker 1: was blackmailed. I don't know what he knew or what 818 00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:53,920 Speaker 1: he found through the I T because he had access 819 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:58,400 Speaker 1: to to an amazing number of information technology both the 820 00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:02,200 Speaker 1: House Democratic Conference apparently, I think twenty six different members 821 00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:06,040 Speaker 1: had hired him. So this, this Pakistani family had a 822 00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:09,439 Speaker 1: level of access to US government documents and US goverman 823 00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 1: information that is that is beyond astonishing, and that it 824 00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:17,120 Speaker 1: should be a major national scandal. And yet other than 825 00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 1: the Daily Caller and a handful of people, it has 826 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:22,640 Speaker 1: been remarkably undercovered by the major news media, just just 827 00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:25,879 Speaker 1: astonishingly so well. And I think this is so I'm 828 00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:29,160 Speaker 1: trying to balance it. I feel like at times, Mr Speaker, 829 00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:31,040 Speaker 1: and I've been out there on a limb almost my 830 00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:34,800 Speaker 1: entire career vetting Obama. I was right on Duke Lacrosse. 831 00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:37,080 Speaker 1: I was right on Richard Jewel back in the day. 832 00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:40,520 Speaker 1: I was right on a whole variety of these these issues, 833 00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:45,560 Speaker 1: uh Ferguson, Freddie Gray, George Zimmerman, Trayvon Martin. I was 834 00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:47,840 Speaker 1: right on all of them and went against the media. Green. 835 00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,680 Speaker 1: I know that Russia is nothing. I know these scandals 836 00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:53,360 Speaker 1: are real, and I find that I'm sitting here on 837 00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:56,399 Speaker 1: an island sometimes and it is beyond frustrating. Well, I think, 838 00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:59,399 Speaker 1: but I think it also validates exactly what Trump campaigned on. 839 00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:01,840 Speaker 1: You know, there is a deep state, there is a swamp. 840 00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 1: They're both opposed to Trump. They're both gonna do everything 841 00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:07,640 Speaker 1: they can to stop people like you and me. Uh. 842 00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 1: It means we're we're always fighting up hill. But we 843 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:13,800 Speaker 1: have two huge advantages. One is the American people instinctively 844 00:48:14,080 --> 00:48:16,640 Speaker 1: believe we're right, and the other is the more facts 845 00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:19,120 Speaker 1: you learned, the more obviously is that we're right, and 846 00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:23,400 Speaker 1: we can afford a very fact based conversation. As you 847 00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:25,799 Speaker 1: point out a while ago, the uranium deal is real. 848 00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:30,480 Speaker 1: The money from the secret Canadian foundation that poured money 849 00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:33,239 Speaker 1: into the Clinton Foundation is real. The money paid to 850 00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:36,239 Speaker 1: Bill Clinton for a speech in Moscow is real. So 851 00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 1: we can have a very fact based conversation. Mr speaker, 852 00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:42,080 Speaker 1: thank you for being with us. He'll join us tonight 853 00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:44,839 Speaker 1: on Hannity. Later on. Former presidential candidate and governor Mike 854 00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:47,040 Speaker 1: Huckabee will check in when we get back. We'll get 855 00:48:47,040 --> 00:49:17,960 Speaker 1: your reaction, your phone calls straight ahead, standing up for 856 00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:23,120 Speaker 1: what's right, with America. We're back on the Sean Hannity Show. 857 00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:25,880 Speaker 1: You write the book, I felt that, just like Goldwater 858 00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:28,000 Speaker 1: had felt in his time fifty six years ago when 859 00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:31,160 Speaker 1: he wrote The Original Conscience of Conservative, that the party 860 00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:34,360 Speaker 1: had lost its way. And I think similarly today the 861 00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:38,600 Speaker 1: party has lost its way. We've given in too nativism 862 00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:42,759 Speaker 1: and protectionism. And I think that if we're going to 863 00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:45,560 Speaker 1: be a governing party in the future, and a majority party, 864 00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:49,000 Speaker 1: we've got to go back to traditional conservatism, limited government, 865 00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:53,759 Speaker 1: economic freedom, individual responsibility, respect for free trade. Those are 866 00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:55,920 Speaker 1: the principles that Paine us who we are. One of 867 00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:58,160 Speaker 1: the things you write in the book is it is 868 00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:02,400 Speaker 1: not enough to be conservative anymore. You have to be vicious. 869 00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:04,319 Speaker 1: What do you mean by that, Well, if you look 870 00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:06,840 Speaker 1: at the politics of today, I mean that the tape 871 00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:09,440 Speaker 1: from last week at the White House and the language 872 00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:13,120 Speaker 1: that was used then, and we've seen, unfortunately too many 873 00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:18,680 Speaker 1: examples of members of Congress and other elected officials using 874 00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:22,879 Speaker 1: language referring to your opponents in ways that you would 875 00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:26,160 Speaker 1: have never done before, describing the worst motives to your opponents, 876 00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:31,279 Speaker 1: and and assuming that other Americans are the enemies, and that, uh, 877 00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:33,279 Speaker 1: that's just not the way it used to be, and 878 00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:35,240 Speaker 1: I don't think it can be that way in the future. 879 00:50:35,400 --> 00:50:37,600 Speaker 1: All right, twenty five now before the top of the 880 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:40,120 Speaker 1: Jeff Jeff Flake needs to go. He's one of those 881 00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:42,440 Speaker 1: people that just need to go. And I'm sorry. I 882 00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:45,799 Speaker 1: will never support him again. And Murkowski, I would never 883 00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:50,680 Speaker 1: support her in Alaska again. And all these other senators repeal, replaced, 884 00:50:50,719 --> 00:50:53,359 Speaker 1: they vote for a pony show votes. Um, I would 885 00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:55,960 Speaker 1: have just refused to deal with these people ever again. 886 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:59,480 Speaker 1: John McCain really blaming me, You're an act, are an 887 00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:01,960 Speaker 1: action as there is a They can go straight to hell. 888 00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:05,279 Speaker 1: These people on cable and on radio, stop listening to 889 00:51:05,320 --> 00:51:09,840 Speaker 1: the bombastic loudmouth radio and television and the internet. To 890 00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:15,239 Speaker 1: hell with them. They don't want anything done for the 891 00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:21,799 Speaker 1: public good. Our incapacity is their livelihood. Our incapacity is 892 00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:25,160 Speaker 1: their livelihood. You know, I'm glad that many of you 893 00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:28,600 Speaker 1: in this audience know the show. I'm glad that many 894 00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:31,279 Speaker 1: of you have heard Dr josh Umper. I'm glad many 895 00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:33,879 Speaker 1: of you have heard an idea that I don't know 896 00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:36,799 Speaker 1: anybody else that has been that has been hoping and 897 00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:41,880 Speaker 1: pushing the idea of these healthcare cooperatives because they're so good. 898 00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 1: Could you have fifty dollars a month unlimited care, total 899 00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:52,560 Speaker 1: access to your doctorcent reduction in pharmaceuticals, I mean stitches 900 00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:56,520 Speaker 1: and and broken bones and X rays for forty eight cents. 901 00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:59,480 Speaker 1: Then a couple it with a catastrophic plan you have 902 00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:03,680 Speaker 1: the as concierge care ever for far less than you're 903 00:52:03,719 --> 00:52:07,480 Speaker 1: paying now, maybe like a seventy percent reduction in many cases. 904 00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:10,040 Speaker 1: And no, they didn't even talk about that, the identity 905 00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:14,080 Speaker 1: less Republicans. But of course blame us. Senator. We've talked 906 00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:16,440 Speaker 1: about the penny plan. You voted for the budgets that 907 00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:19,360 Speaker 1: rob our kids and grandkids. Senator, you had a chance 908 00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:22,840 Speaker 1: to fulfill your promise and repeal Obamacare, you didn't do it. 909 00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:26,880 Speaker 1: I haven't seen John McCain work. And how many jobs 910 00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 1: did we coordinate through all the energy companies? Because energy 911 00:52:30,160 --> 00:52:33,759 Speaker 1: production is the key to national security. We won't be 912 00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:36,440 Speaker 1: dependent on countries that hate us for our lifeblood of 913 00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:40,160 Speaker 1: our economy. And there are literally millions and I'm not 914 00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:46,200 Speaker 1: overstating millions of available high paying career jobs for Americans, 915 00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:49,279 Speaker 1: and even guys just start out on an oil rig 916 00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:54,000 Speaker 1: or start out driving trucks for oil companies eighty grandy year. 917 00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:56,319 Speaker 1: I'll take that if I'm out of work right now, 918 00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:59,640 Speaker 1: if I'm on food stamps right now. You know what's 919 00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:02,240 Speaker 1: our into North Carolina that I sent to school to VARs. 920 00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:06,759 Speaker 1: I mean, his life has been transformed because he's now 921 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,240 Speaker 1: driving a truck. We sent him to the truck school. 922 00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,560 Speaker 1: We love the guy. He works for an oil companies 923 00:53:12,560 --> 00:53:17,480 Speaker 1: even paid more money. That's why these things matter. Really, 924 00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:20,520 Speaker 1: is it that big a deal? Is is Arizona Senator Flakes, 925 00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:25,200 Speaker 1: Senator McKay up and overrun with illegal immigrants? And how's 926 00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:29,960 Speaker 1: that impacting the state of Arizona. How's that impacting Maricopa County? 927 00:53:30,080 --> 00:53:33,520 Speaker 1: I guess now? Former Sheriff Joe R. Pyle? How is 928 00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:39,720 Speaker 1: that impacting the educational system in California, Texas and Arizona? 929 00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:42,680 Speaker 1: How's that impact in the health care system in those states? 930 00:53:42,680 --> 00:53:44,680 Speaker 1: When people are sick and they need to be taken 931 00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:47,920 Speaker 1: care of, they have no insurance because they're not citizens. 932 00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:50,799 Speaker 1: I mean, I would like to think that we are 933 00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:56,120 Speaker 1: people that love our country and have ideas. Anyway, one 934 00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:59,400 Speaker 1: shan if you want to be a part of the program, 935 00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:01,600 Speaker 1: we're gonna get to a busy bones or Sandra is 936 00:54:01,640 --> 00:54:06,440 Speaker 1: in California, Sandra High, how are you? Uh? John McCain 937 00:54:06,640 --> 00:54:10,520 Speaker 1: is an obvious betrayer and a liar. And I think 938 00:54:10,560 --> 00:54:13,320 Speaker 1: it'd be interesting if somebody took the time to count 939 00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:17,719 Speaker 1: how many times he was on mainstream media shows trashing 940 00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:20,720 Speaker 1: President Trump. I bet you it would be in the hundreds. 941 00:54:21,640 --> 00:54:27,000 Speaker 1: And um. Sadly for Arizona, there's also flake. But I 942 00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:31,800 Speaker 1: think that the Senators and the Congressman and the media 943 00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:36,480 Speaker 1: and others need to quit trying to micromanage President Trump. 944 00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:42,800 Speaker 1: I love having his tweets. He makes excellent speeches. He's 945 00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 1: really good at rallies. A lot of that's covered up 946 00:54:46,080 --> 00:54:50,000 Speaker 1: by the media, but he's a great communicator and I'd 947 00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:55,839 Speaker 1: rather hear his communications than have somebody like Obama read 948 00:54:55,880 --> 00:55:00,760 Speaker 1: his speech very well, but the speech says absolute nothing. 949 00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:05,200 Speaker 1: And uh, I'm very disappointed in the Republicans. They've got 950 00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:08,560 Speaker 1: to get off their butts and get to work or um. 951 00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:11,440 Speaker 1: I guess it is gonna harm the rest of us. 952 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:15,600 Speaker 1: But memo to the media, I'm never gonna quit on Trump. 953 00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:18,680 Speaker 1: I've shut them off. I love to listen to you, 954 00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:22,160 Speaker 1: I love to listen to Rush. I love to listen 955 00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:24,960 Speaker 1: to a local talk show called Hot Talk out of 956 00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:29,280 Speaker 1: Palm Springs, and uh, I can hear in five minutes 957 00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:34,160 Speaker 1: Townhall dot com News Report and here as much as 958 00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:37,920 Speaker 1: I could hear in an hour of ABC, CBS or NBC. 959 00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:42,920 Speaker 1: They're their pathetic organizations. Isn't it amazing? Sandra? And I 960 00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:47,040 Speaker 1: only know this because I sample occasionally some other media outlets. 961 00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:51,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I bet nobody if you've watched any other media, 962 00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:54,520 Speaker 1: they don't tell you about Ukraine. I think the biggest 963 00:55:54,600 --> 00:55:56,680 Speaker 1: story that is going to come out of all of 964 00:55:56,719 --> 00:56:00,719 Speaker 1: this is the Uranium one deal. I've to know where 965 00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:03,880 Speaker 1: all that money from all those Canadians that they funneled 966 00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:07,120 Speaker 1: back over a hundred forty five million dollars. Where did 967 00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:10,360 Speaker 1: that money really come from? That's a question I want answered. 968 00:56:10,600 --> 00:56:13,200 Speaker 1: How is it they don't view that as Russia collusion? 969 00:56:13,640 --> 00:56:17,600 Speaker 1: How do they not view what Ukraine did and a 970 00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:20,360 Speaker 1: d n C operative meeting at the Ukrainian embassy with 971 00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:24,200 Speaker 1: the Ukrainian ambassador and giving money giving information back to 972 00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:27,000 Speaker 1: the d n C in Hillary Clinton and her campaign? 973 00:56:27,040 --> 00:56:30,200 Speaker 1: How do they not view that as collusion? Why? Because 974 00:56:30,239 --> 00:56:34,239 Speaker 1: they were pro Hillary and anti Trump? It makes it 975 00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:37,160 Speaker 1: any different. Aren't they trying to impact our elections? When 976 00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:39,600 Speaker 1: are we gonna get to James Comey and is leaking 977 00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:44,080 Speaker 1: or the Chief council. Sarah Carter broke a huge story 978 00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:48,000 Speaker 1: that nobody in the media talks about the Chief Council 979 00:56:48,080 --> 00:56:53,760 Speaker 1: of the FBI under investigation for leaking, and that's leaking intelligence. 980 00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:57,920 Speaker 1: This is beyond anything I've ever seen. A hundred and 981 00:56:57,960 --> 00:57:01,160 Speaker 1: twenty five confirmed leaks and on it in twenty six days. 982 00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:04,080 Speaker 1: And it's far worse than that. The deep state is 983 00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:07,480 Speaker 1: so involved in trying to take down this president, those 984 00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:11,279 Speaker 1: that that that have weaponized our intelligence gathering. And by 985 00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:13,600 Speaker 1: the way, this is not the intelligence community. I love 986 00:57:13,640 --> 00:57:18,640 Speaker 1: the intelligence community. They put they are bravely protecting this country. 987 00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:21,600 Speaker 1: But if you misused the tools of intelligence to turn 988 00:57:21,640 --> 00:57:24,560 Speaker 1: them on the American people, that is a scandal. That 989 00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:27,920 Speaker 1: is the that's the predicate and foundation for a police state, 990 00:57:28,640 --> 00:57:32,160 Speaker 1: and it's happening in America. You know. Add to that 991 00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:36,120 Speaker 1: Hillary's crimes with you know, email server and top secret 992 00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:41,120 Speaker 1: special access program, classified information. All of this. Now finally 993 00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:44,520 Speaker 1: they're beginning to say, oh, maybe Hannity's right, maybe we 994 00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:47,000 Speaker 1: should investigate this, and then they can't get the job done. 995 00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:49,520 Speaker 1: You know why, You're right, Sandra, Look at the town, 996 00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:52,560 Speaker 1: look at the president when he goes out in the country, 997 00:57:52,680 --> 00:57:55,400 Speaker 1: and the crowds are as enthusiastic as they were during 998 00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:58,240 Speaker 1: the election, you know, and all they want to talk 999 00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:00,680 Speaker 1: about Anthony Scaramucci's out to there. All right, we we 1000 00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:05,640 Speaker 1: got that. The media likes to overreact. You know, they 1001 00:58:05,640 --> 00:58:10,840 Speaker 1: were saying this was the worst week of Trump's presidency, 1002 00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:13,000 Speaker 1: and it made me think of your thing that you 1003 00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:16,600 Speaker 1: put together. I think you could go back and count 1004 00:58:16,600 --> 00:58:19,280 Speaker 1: how many times they've said this is the worst week. 1005 00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:23,680 Speaker 1: You know. They just overreact to everything. And as I think, 1006 00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:26,000 Speaker 1: I think, as regular Americans, we need to be a 1007 00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:30,240 Speaker 1: whole lot smarter and uh and just kind of ignore 1008 00:58:30,280 --> 00:58:35,520 Speaker 1: the media shut them off. Alright, immaterial anymore. Well, the 1009 00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:38,560 Speaker 1: problem is is that it gets advanced and advanced, and 1010 00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:42,600 Speaker 1: what are we going to investigate Debbie Wasson and Schultz, Like, 1011 00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:46,439 Speaker 1: I mean, there's so much here and there's so much 1012 00:58:46,520 --> 00:58:51,760 Speaker 1: evidence to corroborate this, and I really feel at times 1013 00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:57,080 Speaker 1: that that we are it's like this is scandal central, 1014 00:58:57,960 --> 00:58:59,880 Speaker 1: just like we were ahead of the curve and Obama 1015 00:59:00,560 --> 00:59:03,720 Speaker 1: head of the curve on Trayvon and George Zimmerman head 1016 00:59:03,720 --> 00:59:06,080 Speaker 1: the curve on Duke Lacrosse. How do the curb on 1017 00:59:06,280 --> 00:59:09,360 Speaker 1: Ferguson head of the curve on Freddy Gray? What did 1018 00:59:09,400 --> 00:59:12,160 Speaker 1: I say? These guys are never gonna get convicted. Once 1019 00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:15,120 Speaker 1: I saw what the evidence was, taking my time, not 1020 00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:17,640 Speaker 1: rushing to judgment like the President, I realized that they're 1021 00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:20,640 Speaker 1: not getting convicted. And it was obvious to everybody but 1022 00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:24,160 Speaker 1: the media. We saw that Trump could win. They never 1023 00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:28,959 Speaker 1: saw a path for him to win. How wrong? How 1024 00:59:29,080 --> 00:59:34,240 Speaker 1: often can they be so wrong on so many different things? 1025 00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:38,840 Speaker 1: And it's all because of an agenda, It's all because 1026 00:59:38,880 --> 00:59:53,560 Speaker 1: of their abusive bias in the media. All right, let's 1027 00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:57,080 Speaker 1: get back to our phones. I'm I am. I'm apoplectic 1028 00:59:57,160 --> 00:59:59,040 Speaker 1: over a lot of what's going on here. If these 1029 00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:01,520 Speaker 1: guys don't get their rack together, start using their power 1030 01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:04,360 Speaker 1: right in the House and the Senate, there's a poen 1031 01:00:04,440 --> 01:00:07,480 Speaker 1: of powers, investigative powers, they don't start getting their their 1032 01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:10,640 Speaker 1: promises fulfilled. I don't know what I'm gonna do. I 1033 01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:15,080 Speaker 1: just it's so frustrating. Anyway, Let's get to our busy telephones. 1034 01:00:15,200 --> 01:00:18,400 Speaker 1: John is in Houston, Texas, Katie R. H. John, Hi, 1035 01:00:18,560 --> 01:00:21,120 Speaker 1: how are you? And we're glad you called Hi? How 1036 01:00:21,120 --> 01:00:24,280 Speaker 1: are you? I'm good? What's going on? Um? Well, I 1037 01:00:24,320 --> 01:00:28,240 Speaker 1: agree with you about the Senate and healthcare between Dad 1038 01:00:28,320 --> 01:00:30,880 Speaker 1: and all this Russian garbage. They're playing right into the 1039 01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:34,400 Speaker 1: hands of the Democrats. The Democrat attacks are not about 1040 01:00:34,480 --> 01:00:37,960 Speaker 1: Trump or Russian collusion. It's about covering up the laws 1041 01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:40,680 Speaker 1: of the previous administration. They're trying to make it so 1042 01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:43,720 Speaker 1: we don't look into fast and furious Loretta Lynch, Benghazi, 1043 01:00:43,840 --> 01:00:46,640 Speaker 1: et cetera. They had no clue Hillo we would lose. 1044 01:00:46,720 --> 01:00:50,160 Speaker 1: And when she lost, they had James Comey run interference, 1045 01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:53,000 Speaker 1: and when he was fired, he appointed a special counsel. 1046 01:00:53,360 --> 01:00:56,360 Speaker 1: I think this is all about covering up their past 1047 01:00:56,520 --> 01:00:58,960 Speaker 1: until they get into the White House again, so they 1048 01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:02,400 Speaker 1: can see it and put it way if they never investigate. 1049 01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:05,000 Speaker 1: I am pretty confident and this is based on a 1050 01:01:05,120 --> 01:01:09,840 Speaker 1: the information that I I know and what I believe, 1051 01:01:10,160 --> 01:01:13,280 Speaker 1: and I think there's got to be a rational explanation 1052 01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:17,640 Speaker 1: as to why with the overwhelming and incontrovertible evidence on Hillary, 1053 01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:20,320 Speaker 1: why didn't they do anything. And here's my guest, here's 1054 01:01:20,360 --> 01:01:23,040 Speaker 1: my it's a theory it's a guess. I'd like to 1055 01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:25,960 Speaker 1: investigate it. I like Congress to do their job. But 1056 01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:29,760 Speaker 1: my guess is she probably can expose so much on 1057 01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:33,080 Speaker 1: so many people because she knows all about the deep State, 1058 01:01:33,440 --> 01:01:38,200 Speaker 1: was probably active with them. And unfortunately, if she's in 1059 01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:42,240 Speaker 1: that position, then the people that she would likely expose 1060 01:01:42,480 --> 01:01:44,840 Speaker 1: or in the positions where they could do something, and 1061 01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:47,640 Speaker 1: they're not gonna do anything because she's got something over 1062 01:01:47,680 --> 01:01:51,160 Speaker 1: their head. And that's the sad reality of how life 1063 01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:54,800 Speaker 1: works too often, and certainly how the government operates today. 1064 01:01:55,560 --> 01:01:59,280 Speaker 1: Good call appreciated, John nine for one. Shawn Cogo Radio 1065 01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:02,640 Speaker 1: San Diego. Scott is next, Scott, Hi, how are you 1066 01:02:02,720 --> 01:02:05,520 Speaker 1: glad you called soon? Hey, I got a good idea 1067 01:02:05,560 --> 01:02:07,440 Speaker 1: I want to share with if you don't mind, and 1068 01:02:07,480 --> 01:02:09,480 Speaker 1: see if you might be able to what you think 1069 01:02:09,480 --> 01:02:11,040 Speaker 1: of it, if it might be worth bouncing off some 1070 01:02:11,080 --> 01:02:14,120 Speaker 1: of your contacts, either the president or his staff. The 1071 01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:16,800 Speaker 1: I think there's an old school way that the president 1072 01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:20,959 Speaker 1: can overcome this, like your previous colors said, the true 1073 01:02:20,960 --> 01:02:24,440 Speaker 1: agenda of the establishment and the media and the misleading 1074 01:02:24,440 --> 01:02:27,680 Speaker 1: that they're doing to the American people. The president does 1075 01:02:27,720 --> 01:02:30,640 Speaker 1: fantastic when he gets one on one with an audience. 1076 01:02:31,120 --> 01:02:33,880 Speaker 1: He wins over foreign leaders, he wins over rap stars, 1077 01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:38,080 Speaker 1: he wins over high profile athletes that you know, Donald 1078 01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:39,800 Speaker 1: Trump right now is the biggest thing on earth. He's 1079 01:02:39,800 --> 01:02:42,919 Speaker 1: bigger than Michael Jordan's, He's bigger than Lebron James. He's 1080 01:02:43,040 --> 01:02:45,400 Speaker 1: he would attract attention anywhere and every where he goes. 1081 01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:48,240 Speaker 1: But there's one old school way he could connect, I think, 1082 01:02:48,280 --> 01:02:52,960 Speaker 1: with everybody, and that's to have a fireside chat an 1083 01:02:52,960 --> 01:02:58,160 Speaker 1: oval office, televised prime time one on one hour Donald 1084 01:02:58,200 --> 01:03:01,840 Speaker 1: Trump and the American people. And you know, Fox would 1085 01:03:01,840 --> 01:03:05,560 Speaker 1: broadcast it. And because Trump is so huge, any other 1086 01:03:05,640 --> 01:03:10,120 Speaker 1: network would be an idiot not to broadcast it. Because 1087 01:03:10,120 --> 01:03:11,920 Speaker 1: even if he only takes a two minute or one 1088 01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:15,560 Speaker 1: or two or three commercial breaks, every every legitimate business 1089 01:03:15,600 --> 01:03:17,960 Speaker 1: in the country would die to advertise on that thing. 1090 01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:24,080 Speaker 1: For the exposure. He would have nine of America, including foreigners, 1091 01:03:24,360 --> 01:03:27,400 Speaker 1: tuning into that show, and he could pick out the 1092 01:03:27,480 --> 01:03:30,920 Speaker 1: six or eight items, you know, points that that the 1093 01:03:30,960 --> 01:03:35,200 Speaker 1: mainstream media and and the establishment keep misleading people on 1094 01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:38,720 Speaker 1: and just and just say, hey, here's the reality on 1095 01:03:39,040 --> 01:03:43,200 Speaker 1: Obamacare five minutes, Here's the reality on Russia five minutes. 1096 01:03:43,520 --> 01:03:46,000 Speaker 1: Here's the reality on the economy. And I think this 1097 01:03:46,080 --> 01:03:48,720 Speaker 1: is a great idea. All right, listen, and the President, 1098 01:03:48,800 --> 01:03:52,040 Speaker 1: to a certain extent, is able to do that. As 1099 01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:56,080 Speaker 1: the President is really good at social media, and that's 1100 01:03:56,080 --> 01:03:59,120 Speaker 1: why he has fifty million million people that he's reaching 1101 01:03:59,120 --> 01:04:02,080 Speaker 1: in social media. It's crazy, um, And I think that 1102 01:04:02,280 --> 01:04:04,880 Speaker 1: would serve the president well to just get his message out. 1103 01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:07,880 Speaker 1: And you know what, the media would would absolutely be 1104 01:04:08,560 --> 01:04:11,720 Speaker 1: so resentful that it would actually be fun to watch 1105 01:04:11,800 --> 01:04:14,560 Speaker 1: them react that they can't stand that he doesn't need 1106 01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:17,560 Speaker 1: them anymore. Here's the truth. President doesn't need them anymore. 1107 01:04:17,680 --> 01:04:21,560 Speaker 1: The President is bypassing, though they resent the hell out 1108 01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:24,280 Speaker 1: of it that he doesn't bow before them. That's that's 1109 01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:26,360 Speaker 1: part of where there was resentment comes from. All Right, 1110 01:04:26,360 --> 01:04:28,720 Speaker 1: I gotta take a quick break. We'll come back nine 1111 01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:32,320 Speaker 1: one seawan are told. Free telephone number. Mike Huckabee, former governor, 1112 01:04:32,440 --> 01:04:48,120 Speaker 1: former presidential candidate is next. I've been here just six months. 1113 01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:51,160 Speaker 1: I'm ready to act. I have pen in hand. Believe me, 1114 01:04:51,240 --> 01:04:54,560 Speaker 1: I'm sitting in that office. I have pen in hand. 1115 01:04:54,720 --> 01:04:57,160 Speaker 1: You never had that before. You know, for seven years 1116 01:04:57,200 --> 01:05:00,680 Speaker 1: you had an easy rout will repeal. We'll place and 1117 01:05:00,720 --> 01:05:02,760 Speaker 1: he's never going to sign it, but I'm signing it, 1118 01:05:02,840 --> 01:05:05,040 Speaker 1: so it's a little bit different. But I'm ready to act. 1119 01:05:05,280 --> 01:05:07,960 Speaker 1: For seven years, you've promised the American people that you 1120 01:05:07,960 --> 01:05:11,880 Speaker 1: would repeal Obamacare. People are hurting in action is not 1121 01:05:12,040 --> 01:05:15,200 Speaker 1: an option. And frankly, I don't think we should leave 1122 01:05:15,360 --> 01:05:19,720 Speaker 1: town unless we have a health insurance plan, unless we 1123 01:05:19,800 --> 01:05:21,800 Speaker 1: can give our people great health care. And you know, 1124 01:05:21,840 --> 01:05:24,200 Speaker 1: there's an old saying that when the going gets tough, 1125 01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:27,000 Speaker 1: the tough get going. Now is not the time to 1126 01:05:27,080 --> 01:05:29,480 Speaker 1: leave the American people in a lurch. Now is not 1127 01:05:29,640 --> 01:05:32,480 Speaker 1: the time to leave American health care at risk. Now 1128 01:05:32,640 --> 01:05:35,640 Speaker 1: is not the time to continue to stress even worse 1129 01:05:35,720 --> 01:05:37,840 Speaker 1: the family budgets as parents are trying to take care 1130 01:05:37,880 --> 01:05:40,160 Speaker 1: of their kids. So I hope they won't quit. And 1131 01:05:40,160 --> 01:05:42,040 Speaker 1: if they're going to quit, well, then by God. And 1132 01:05:42,080 --> 01:05:43,560 Speaker 1: maybe they ought to start at the top with rich 1133 01:05:43,640 --> 01:05:48,200 Speaker 1: McConnell leaving his position and letting somebody knew, somebody bowled, 1134 01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:50,560 Speaker 1: somebody conservative take the reins so that they can come 1135 01:05:50,600 --> 01:05:52,120 Speaker 1: up with a plan that can get through the United 1136 01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:54,640 Speaker 1: States Senate and serve the needs of the American people. 1137 01:05:54,960 --> 01:05:57,000 Speaker 1: You think that the problem is leadership. You think it's 1138 01:05:57,000 --> 01:06:00,120 Speaker 1: time for a change for the Republicans in the Senate. Well, unquestionable. 1139 01:06:00,040 --> 01:06:03,520 Speaker 1: The leadership at the top is responsible. The buck stops there. 1140 01:06:03,600 --> 01:06:06,560 Speaker 1: That's why you take on that kind of responsibility. And 1141 01:06:06,640 --> 01:06:08,920 Speaker 1: if miss McConnell cannot get the job done on this, 1142 01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:10,600 Speaker 1: how is he going to get the job done on 1143 01:06:10,640 --> 01:06:12,640 Speaker 1: the rest of President Trump's agenda over the next three 1144 01:06:12,640 --> 01:06:15,000 Speaker 1: and a half years. As I see it right now, 1145 01:06:15,360 --> 01:06:18,200 Speaker 1: this is a killer. As you recall from six months ago, 1146 01:06:18,360 --> 01:06:21,320 Speaker 1: if we did not get healthcare past, that meant that 1147 01:06:21,320 --> 01:06:23,520 Speaker 1: there would be no tax reform, which in tournament that 1148 01:06:23,520 --> 01:06:26,520 Speaker 1: there would be no infrastructure improvements. And if that ends 1149 01:06:26,600 --> 01:06:28,520 Speaker 1: up being the case as was represented to us in 1150 01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:31,360 Speaker 1: the House back in the spring when we forced through 1151 01:06:31,760 --> 01:06:34,760 Speaker 1: a healthcare bill, well we need new leadership in the Senate. 1152 01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:36,760 Speaker 1: If they can't get the job done, it's not it's 1153 01:06:36,760 --> 01:06:40,200 Speaker 1: not necessarily anything bad about Miss McConnell himself personally, but 1154 01:06:40,280 --> 01:06:42,120 Speaker 1: he's got a job to do and if he can't 1155 01:06:42,160 --> 01:06:44,840 Speaker 1: do it, then, as the Apprentice would say, you're fired. 1156 01:06:44,960 --> 01:06:47,840 Speaker 1: Get somebody who can. All right. That was Congressmant Moe Brooks, 1157 01:06:47,840 --> 01:06:50,720 Speaker 1: who is running for the Senate to fill the vacant 1158 01:06:51,000 --> 01:06:55,360 Speaker 1: session seat down in Alabama, and I tend to agree 1159 01:06:55,440 --> 01:06:59,120 Speaker 1: with him. The president rightly so saying it's it is 1160 01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:03,320 Speaker 1: in action is not an option for anybody that people 1161 01:07:03,440 --> 01:07:06,560 Speaker 1: are suffering. And he's not giving up on Obamacare repeal, 1162 01:07:06,600 --> 01:07:08,720 Speaker 1: although Mitch McConnell said it's time to move on to 1163 01:07:08,840 --> 01:07:12,080 Speaker 1: some other things. And because Mitch Moe Brooks down in 1164 01:07:12,160 --> 01:07:14,840 Speaker 1: Alabama said what he said, well, now we've got all 1165 01:07:14,920 --> 01:07:18,240 Speaker 1: these articles that Mitch McConnell is waging war against Moe 1166 01:07:18,320 --> 01:07:21,360 Speaker 1: Brooks to get more establishment candidate in the U. S. Senate. 1167 01:07:21,360 --> 01:07:23,280 Speaker 1: I don't think that's gonna work. I think ultimately that 1168 01:07:23,360 --> 01:07:26,360 Speaker 1: ends up help helping Moe Brooks down in Alabama. And 1169 01:07:26,400 --> 01:07:28,919 Speaker 1: on top of that, you've got, let's see, you've got 1170 01:07:28,960 --> 01:07:32,400 Speaker 1: basically the President threatening to yank the Congress's gold plated 1171 01:07:32,480 --> 01:07:34,600 Speaker 1: healthcare benefits, which I think is the right thing to 1172 01:07:34,640 --> 01:07:36,200 Speaker 1: do too. And I don't think it's right to go 1173 01:07:36,240 --> 01:07:38,720 Speaker 1: on vacation either. And you've got, you know, on top 1174 01:07:38,760 --> 01:07:40,680 Speaker 1: of all of this, you got the old and and 1175 01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:44,440 Speaker 1: B directors saying Obamacare repeal must come first because they 1176 01:07:44,440 --> 01:07:47,240 Speaker 1: were counting on a trillion dollars in savings anyway. Joining 1177 01:07:47,280 --> 01:07:50,560 Speaker 1: us now is former presidential candidate, former governor of Arkansas, 1178 01:07:50,720 --> 01:07:54,760 Speaker 1: Fox News host and and contributor, Governor Mike Huckabee. How 1179 01:07:54,800 --> 01:07:56,840 Speaker 1: are you. I'm doing well. You kind of summed it 1180 01:07:56,920 --> 01:08:00,160 Speaker 1: up pretty accurately just then. I think it was spot on. Yeah, well, 1181 01:08:00,200 --> 01:08:02,520 Speaker 1: I mean, what do you make not only Mitch McConnell 1182 01:08:02,560 --> 01:08:04,960 Speaker 1: unable to do it, and all the reports that let's say, 1183 01:08:05,040 --> 01:08:07,520 Speaker 1: Joe Biden and others, they're all calling John McCain, and 1184 01:08:07,600 --> 01:08:10,520 Speaker 1: John McCain flies back with great fanfare. We wish him 1185 01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:12,680 Speaker 1: all the best, of course, and then he ends up, 1186 01:08:12,720 --> 01:08:14,840 Speaker 1: you know, siding with the Democrats on this. What are 1187 01:08:14,840 --> 01:08:18,080 Speaker 1: your thoughts? It was very disappointing to see the Republicans, 1188 01:08:18,200 --> 01:08:21,280 Speaker 1: the ones who were responsible for not living up to 1189 01:08:21,320 --> 01:08:23,400 Speaker 1: the promise that they had made, and Johan the most 1190 01:08:23,400 --> 01:08:25,840 Speaker 1: frustrating thing of all, every one of those senators had 1191 01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:29,120 Speaker 1: voted for the very bill that they now voted against 1192 01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:31,439 Speaker 1: when the Republicans were in charge. So it makes me 1193 01:08:31,479 --> 01:08:33,559 Speaker 1: think that when they were voting to get rid of 1194 01:08:33,560 --> 01:08:36,080 Speaker 1: Obamacare back when they didn't have the votes to actually 1195 01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:38,080 Speaker 1: do it, that it was all a ruse. They were 1196 01:08:38,120 --> 01:08:40,200 Speaker 1: just doing that because it looked good at the constituents, 1197 01:08:40,200 --> 01:08:42,599 Speaker 1: but when it really counted and they needed to stand 1198 01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:44,719 Speaker 1: up for the people of this country that are sick 1199 01:08:44,760 --> 01:08:47,479 Speaker 1: of having the government try to decide for every one 1200 01:08:47,479 --> 01:08:49,559 Speaker 1: of the fifties states. What health Carola looked like when 1201 01:08:49,560 --> 01:08:53,240 Speaker 1: they had a chance to actually repeal Obamacare. Uh, they 1202 01:08:53,320 --> 01:08:57,080 Speaker 1: sided with Chuck Schumer instead of with President Trump. What 1203 01:08:57,120 --> 01:08:59,519 Speaker 1: do you make those articles out there today? Can an 1204 01:08:59,560 --> 01:09:03,600 Speaker 1: America president governed when he's at war with both Republicans 1205 01:09:03,600 --> 01:09:06,200 Speaker 1: and Democrats. When you think of the one promise that 1206 01:09:06,320 --> 01:09:09,479 Speaker 1: Republicans have made over seven years, this is it. And 1207 01:09:09,520 --> 01:09:11,599 Speaker 1: I'm arguing there are a party right now that doesn't 1208 01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:13,719 Speaker 1: have an identity, but they don't have much of an identity. 1209 01:09:13,760 --> 01:09:17,360 Speaker 1: Their identity is in some cases being never Trumpers and 1210 01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:19,160 Speaker 1: not being able to get over the fact that the 1211 01:09:19,200 --> 01:09:23,000 Speaker 1: American people, including the people of their own party, overwhelmingly 1212 01:09:23,120 --> 01:09:26,080 Speaker 1: nominated Donald Trump. They elected Donald Trump, and I believe 1213 01:09:26,120 --> 01:09:28,920 Speaker 1: there was an expectation that they will work with this president. 1214 01:09:28,920 --> 01:09:31,600 Speaker 1: And quite frankly, Sean, they don't have to like him, immaterial, 1215 01:09:31,680 --> 01:09:33,360 Speaker 1: but they need to work with him on behalf of 1216 01:09:33,360 --> 01:09:36,160 Speaker 1: the American people. I just wish that more people in 1217 01:09:36,200 --> 01:09:40,080 Speaker 1: America understood the positive things that are actually taking place 1218 01:09:40,160 --> 01:09:43,400 Speaker 1: under this president. Uh. You know, for example, we've got 1219 01:09:43,720 --> 01:09:47,280 Speaker 1: a great Supreme Court justice. We have a person after 1220 01:09:47,720 --> 01:09:51,120 Speaker 1: his election, Donald Trump, We've now seen illegal immigration down 1221 01:09:51,200 --> 01:09:55,240 Speaker 1: nearly seventy percent, the lowest in seventeen years, Consumer confidence 1222 01:09:55,280 --> 01:09:59,400 Speaker 1: the highest since two thousand. Mortgage applications for new homes 1223 01:09:59,400 --> 01:10:02,519 Speaker 1: have risen to a seven year high. You have names, 1224 01:10:02,760 --> 01:10:05,240 Speaker 1: we have we have a seven year low. Governor on 1225 01:10:05,439 --> 01:10:09,680 Speaker 1: food stamp participation. Every single number that I can think of, 1226 01:10:09,720 --> 01:10:13,200 Speaker 1: the stock market is like rocket propelled right now. We 1227 01:10:13,240 --> 01:10:15,719 Speaker 1: may hit twenty two thousand at the Dow Jones this week. 1228 01:10:15,880 --> 01:10:18,800 Speaker 1: I mean, this is amazing stuff. And when people act like, well, 1229 01:10:18,800 --> 01:10:21,360 Speaker 1: that doesn't matter to me. Are you a retiree, are 1230 01:10:21,400 --> 01:10:23,639 Speaker 1: you a person who has a pension, then you better 1231 01:10:23,640 --> 01:10:26,240 Speaker 1: believe that stock market matters to you because it means 1232 01:10:26,280 --> 01:10:28,880 Speaker 1: that rather than your stock portfolio that you're going to 1233 01:10:28,960 --> 01:10:32,639 Speaker 1: retire on meaning nothing, now it's supercharged and you might 1234 01:10:32,680 --> 01:10:36,160 Speaker 1: be able to actually retire. That's what that means. Yeah, well, 1235 01:10:36,320 --> 01:10:40,360 Speaker 1: you know, look at for example, Senator Flake, also of Arizona, saying, 1236 01:10:40,439 --> 01:10:43,240 Speaker 1: under Trump, the GOP has lost its way given into 1237 01:10:43,360 --> 01:10:47,160 Speaker 1: nativism xenophobia. That really made me mad when I heard that, because, 1238 01:10:47,200 --> 01:10:49,360 Speaker 1: first of all, Blake is a never Trumper. He's one 1239 01:10:49,400 --> 01:10:53,000 Speaker 1: of those who, like Ben Sass of Nebraska, has almost 1240 01:10:53,120 --> 01:10:56,600 Speaker 1: created his own cottage industry of being a contrarian to 1241 01:10:56,680 --> 01:10:59,360 Speaker 1: the American public who elected this president. But what was 1242 01:10:59,400 --> 01:11:01,400 Speaker 1: even more for strating for him to say that if 1243 01:11:01,439 --> 01:11:04,679 Speaker 1: you're an American America first guy, and I count myself 1244 01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:07,880 Speaker 1: as one of those, then that makes me a nativist. Well, 1245 01:11:07,920 --> 01:11:10,519 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, that's not a nativist. I've considered to be 1246 01:11:10,600 --> 01:11:13,639 Speaker 1: a patriot to believe that we ought to put our 1247 01:11:13,640 --> 01:11:16,920 Speaker 1: country first. You know, Governor, We've been watching everything that's 1248 01:11:16,960 --> 01:11:21,479 Speaker 1: going on with North Korea, and now we have these 1249 01:11:21,520 --> 01:11:24,200 Speaker 1: reports out there that in fact North Korea is capable. 1250 01:11:24,400 --> 01:11:26,800 Speaker 1: There's i c b ms can now reach New York 1251 01:11:26,800 --> 01:11:29,760 Speaker 1: and Boston, and I look at this, and why am 1252 01:11:29,800 --> 01:11:36,080 Speaker 1: I more convinced between al Qaeda, isis Putin and Russia, China, Iran, 1253 01:11:36,520 --> 01:11:39,760 Speaker 1: and obviously North Korea that this presidency is not going 1254 01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:42,439 Speaker 1: to be defined by anything other than these foreign policy 1255 01:11:42,520 --> 01:11:45,120 Speaker 1: crisis that are emerging. Well, one thing that gives me 1256 01:11:45,160 --> 01:11:48,080 Speaker 1: great comforts on is that this is a president who 1257 01:11:48,240 --> 01:11:51,200 Speaker 1: is pretty no nonsense, I mean dropping fifty nine tomahawks 1258 01:11:51,240 --> 01:11:54,559 Speaker 1: on those runways in Syria and unloading the mother of 1259 01:11:54,600 --> 01:11:57,759 Speaker 1: all bombs in Afghanistan. Said this is not a president 1260 01:11:57,760 --> 01:12:00,280 Speaker 1: that is gonna draw red lines that he has no 1261 01:12:00,320 --> 01:12:02,719 Speaker 1: intention of keeping. And I think that was a message 1262 01:12:02,760 --> 01:12:06,360 Speaker 1: that hopefully was heard around the world. Uh, the North 1263 01:12:06,439 --> 01:12:09,240 Speaker 1: Rean situation is one that I just don't think there's 1264 01:12:09,240 --> 01:12:12,000 Speaker 1: any option. We're gonna have to act preemptively, hopefully with 1265 01:12:12,080 --> 01:12:15,200 Speaker 1: the support and cooperation and even the assistance of the 1266 01:12:15,280 --> 01:12:19,920 Speaker 1: Chinese and Japanese and South Koreans. But you know, this 1267 01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:23,040 Speaker 1: is a cancer that right now is somewhat contained. But 1268 01:12:23,080 --> 01:12:26,639 Speaker 1: if we let this cancer metastasize and continue to grow, 1269 01:12:26,840 --> 01:12:29,120 Speaker 1: it's going to be much harder to stop it. And 1270 01:12:29,160 --> 01:12:31,960 Speaker 1: I know that sounds bold and dramatic, but I think 1271 01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:34,240 Speaker 1: that I think that's called the truth. Governor only is. 1272 01:12:34,320 --> 01:12:36,920 Speaker 1: But there's just no way we can pretend that Kim 1273 01:12:37,000 --> 01:12:39,200 Speaker 1: Jong Oon is going to calm down and grow up. 1274 01:12:39,200 --> 01:12:41,639 Speaker 1: But he's not. He is going to push the button. 1275 01:12:41,720 --> 01:12:44,519 Speaker 1: As soon as that button will take an I CBM 1276 01:12:44,560 --> 01:12:46,479 Speaker 1: all the way to the United States. Let me ask 1277 01:12:46,520 --> 01:12:49,160 Speaker 1: you about the varying scandals. Now, I know a group 1278 01:12:49,200 --> 01:12:52,040 Speaker 1: of congressmen finally said enough is enough, and they wrote 1279 01:12:52,040 --> 01:12:55,439 Speaker 1: the Deputy Attorney General last week on Thursday, demanding that 1280 01:12:55,479 --> 01:12:58,960 Speaker 1: they started investigating. Considering everybody is so obsessed with special 1281 01:12:58,960 --> 01:13:02,160 Speaker 1: counsels and investing sations, and we ought to start looking 1282 01:13:02,200 --> 01:13:05,760 Speaker 1: at the strange circumstances of Debbie Wasserman Schultz and her 1283 01:13:06,040 --> 01:13:09,080 Speaker 1: I T Guy and him smashing hard drives and trying 1284 01:13:09,120 --> 01:13:11,280 Speaker 1: to take off with three hundred thousand dollars in an 1285 01:13:11,280 --> 01:13:15,040 Speaker 1: ankle bracelet to Pakistan. You add to that Hillary Clinton 1286 01:13:15,120 --> 01:13:18,599 Speaker 1: and her smashing with hammers, her her many devices, when 1287 01:13:18,680 --> 01:13:21,680 Speaker 1: again the whole reason for the separate email issue was 1288 01:13:21,720 --> 01:13:24,240 Speaker 1: I only have one device, and I believe crimes were 1289 01:13:24,240 --> 01:13:27,439 Speaker 1: committed there in the Uranium one deal and Ukraine trying 1290 01:13:27,439 --> 01:13:30,040 Speaker 1: to impact our elections. And then we got Loretta Lynch, 1291 01:13:30,040 --> 01:13:31,920 Speaker 1: and then we got James Comey in a report last 1292 01:13:31,960 --> 01:13:36,280 Speaker 1: week the deputy FBI the Attorney General, chief counsel for 1293 01:13:36,320 --> 01:13:38,360 Speaker 1: the FBI is also a leaker. You know, are we 1294 01:13:38,400 --> 01:13:41,320 Speaker 1: gonna have investigations into all these matters or does it 1295 01:13:41,479 --> 01:13:45,840 Speaker 1: just focus on Russia? Russia, Russia, Jonathan, Republicans don't aggressively 1296 01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:49,679 Speaker 1: go after getting answers, especially to this I T scandal 1297 01:13:49,760 --> 01:13:53,960 Speaker 1: with Debbie Wasserman Schultz Pakistani I T guy. Keep in mind, 1298 01:13:54,439 --> 01:13:57,439 Speaker 1: most of the press and even members of Congress have 1299 01:13:57,520 --> 01:14:00,839 Speaker 1: spent so much time trying to dissect eight twenty minute 1300 01:14:00,880 --> 01:14:04,520 Speaker 1: meeting with a Russian attorney that happened during a campaign, 1301 01:14:04,600 --> 01:14:08,120 Speaker 1: with no government officials involved, not a penny of taxpayer 1302 01:14:08,120 --> 01:14:10,880 Speaker 1: money being spent, and nothing coming out of it. Well, 1303 01:14:10,880 --> 01:14:13,839 Speaker 1: where are the Republicans on all of these varying scandals 1304 01:14:13,840 --> 01:14:16,800 Speaker 1: where we know crimes were committed. We know Uranium one 1305 01:14:16,840 --> 01:14:20,200 Speaker 1: was quite pro quote. We know Hillary mishandled classified top 1306 01:14:20,240 --> 01:14:23,720 Speaker 1: secret special access information and destroyed such. We know that 1307 01:14:23,840 --> 01:14:27,600 Speaker 1: five foreign intelligence services hacked into that email server in 1308 01:14:27,640 --> 01:14:31,200 Speaker 1: a bathroom closet, well and Shawn four million dollars of 1309 01:14:31,280 --> 01:14:35,360 Speaker 1: taxpayer money went to this Pakistani I T person that 1310 01:14:35,439 --> 01:14:38,719 Speaker 1: Debbie Wasserman Schultz hired along with members of his family 1311 01:14:38,840 --> 01:14:41,640 Speaker 1: four million tax one of them marked that McDonald's. I 1312 01:14:41,680 --> 01:14:44,479 Speaker 1: wonder how much I T experienced the guy had. Well, 1313 01:14:44,560 --> 01:14:47,360 Speaker 1: and here's the point, it's not just the experience the 1314 01:14:47,520 --> 01:14:51,120 Speaker 1: access that he had to Intelligence committee reports. What did 1315 01:14:51,120 --> 01:14:53,439 Speaker 1: he do with the information that he had access to, 1316 01:14:53,640 --> 01:14:56,240 Speaker 1: and especially why did he smash the hard drives? What 1317 01:14:56,320 --> 01:14:59,880 Speaker 1: was on there that he wanted to somehow conceal? But 1318 01:15:00,080 --> 01:15:03,760 Speaker 1: I don't see Republicans fighting and demanding like the Democrats 1319 01:15:03,800 --> 01:15:07,960 Speaker 1: have demanded on a non Russia issue with the same intensity, 1320 01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:09,760 Speaker 1: and they do they not know how to govern and 1321 01:15:09,880 --> 01:15:12,519 Speaker 1: use the power that they asked for that we gave them. Well, 1322 01:15:12,600 --> 01:15:14,639 Speaker 1: I don't think they do. It's all the more reason 1323 01:15:14,720 --> 01:15:17,160 Speaker 1: that when I hear people say the Democrats may win 1324 01:15:17,400 --> 01:15:20,040 Speaker 1: the House in I don't think they will because I 1325 01:15:20,040 --> 01:15:22,640 Speaker 1: don't think they have a message. But I'd surely like 1326 01:15:22,800 --> 01:15:26,080 Speaker 1: to make sure that Republicans understand that it may be 1327 01:15:26,240 --> 01:15:29,000 Speaker 1: the Republicans keep the House and Senate, but I'd like 1328 01:15:29,080 --> 01:15:31,640 Speaker 1: to see a whole bunch of different Republicans be in 1329 01:15:31,680 --> 01:15:33,960 Speaker 1: that majority. You know what, I don't disagree at all. 1330 01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:36,200 Speaker 1: That's why I'm supporting Moe Brooks down in Alabama. I 1331 01:15:36,240 --> 01:15:37,519 Speaker 1: don't know if you know him. I've known him for 1332 01:15:37,520 --> 01:15:39,840 Speaker 1: twenty seven years and you probably knew him when you 1333 01:15:39,880 --> 01:15:41,600 Speaker 1: were governor of Arkansas. I mean, he used to be 1334 01:15:41,680 --> 01:15:44,479 Speaker 1: the Madison County, Alabama district attorney. Believe it or not, 1335 01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:46,120 Speaker 1: he has a great history of filling in for me 1336 01:15:46,200 --> 01:15:49,440 Speaker 1: locally when I was a local host down there, Governor Huckabee, 1337 01:15:49,680 --> 01:15:51,240 Speaker 1: and he did a pretty good job. I mean, he 1338 01:15:51,720 --> 01:15:53,920 Speaker 1: really could have had a career in radio, and some 1339 01:15:54,080 --> 01:15:56,440 Speaker 1: for some odd reason, like you, he went into politics. 1340 01:15:56,600 --> 01:15:59,439 Speaker 1: What a dumb thing to do. It's it's such a 1341 01:15:59,520 --> 01:16:01,200 Speaker 1: dumb thing to do. All right, we'll take a break, 1342 01:16:01,240 --> 01:16:10,479 Speaker 1: well more with Governor Mike Huckabee. Right as we continue 1343 01:16:10,479 --> 01:16:14,719 Speaker 1: with former Arkansas governor and former presidential candidate himself, Governor 1344 01:16:14,800 --> 01:16:18,040 Speaker 1: Mike Huckabee is with us. So, if you're the Republicans 1345 01:16:18,080 --> 01:16:21,320 Speaker 1: and you're hearing with the President this weekend tweeting out repeatedly, 1346 01:16:21,680 --> 01:16:25,160 Speaker 1: Obamacare's hurting people, and it is. Why shouldn't it hurt 1347 01:16:25,160 --> 01:16:27,960 Speaker 1: the insurance companies? Why should Congress not be paying for 1348 01:16:28,040 --> 01:16:30,839 Speaker 1: what the public pays and get off their gold standard 1349 01:16:30,920 --> 01:16:34,000 Speaker 1: plan themselves and and live like the rest of us. Well, 1350 01:16:34,160 --> 01:16:37,040 Speaker 1: the only person who can actually make that change is 1351 01:16:37,080 --> 01:16:40,640 Speaker 1: the director of o p M Office Personnel Management, who 1352 01:16:40,680 --> 01:16:43,800 Speaker 1: is an Obama era holdover. It's one of the positions 1353 01:16:43,800 --> 01:16:46,760 Speaker 1: that Congress has not yet confirmed for President Trump to 1354 01:16:46,760 --> 01:16:49,160 Speaker 1: have his own person in there. Of course, they should 1355 01:16:49,200 --> 01:16:52,000 Speaker 1: be under the exact same program. Now they may argue, well, 1356 01:16:52,040 --> 01:16:54,600 Speaker 1: we have to get our insurance under the exchanges, but 1357 01:16:54,640 --> 01:16:58,240 Speaker 1: they're still heavily subsidized, and it's it's one of the 1358 01:16:58,280 --> 01:17:00,880 Speaker 1: ways in which they have kind of create to the scam, 1359 01:17:00,880 --> 01:17:03,520 Speaker 1: making it appear that they're living under the same Obamacare 1360 01:17:03,600 --> 01:17:06,519 Speaker 1: rules that everybody else is, but in fact they really aren't. 1361 01:17:06,600 --> 01:17:09,280 Speaker 1: They do have the subsidies, and that's what President Trump 1362 01:17:09,320 --> 01:17:12,400 Speaker 1: was threatening to take away, was their subsidies. I'm pretty 1363 01:17:12,400 --> 01:17:14,479 Speaker 1: sure that would get them back to the table to 1364 01:17:14,520 --> 01:17:17,559 Speaker 1: try to get something done rather quickly. If look, they 1365 01:17:17,600 --> 01:17:20,160 Speaker 1: ought to be under every law that the American people 1366 01:17:20,200 --> 01:17:22,840 Speaker 1: are under. There should never be a congressional exemption, and 1367 01:17:22,920 --> 01:17:25,960 Speaker 1: unfortunately there are many. It really is pathetic, I mean, 1368 01:17:26,080 --> 01:17:28,639 Speaker 1: and this is what they asked for, assuming do you 1369 01:17:28,720 --> 01:17:31,439 Speaker 1: really think they got. Mitch McConnell has said, let's move on, 1370 01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:33,120 Speaker 1: is going to go back to healthcare? Do you think 1371 01:17:33,120 --> 01:17:36,280 Speaker 1: it actually foregoes entire August recess to do that, which 1372 01:17:36,320 --> 01:17:38,000 Speaker 1: would be the right thing to do. I just know 1373 01:17:38,080 --> 01:17:40,639 Speaker 1: that when I was at Workwood Elementary School in Hope, Arkansas, 1374 01:17:40,720 --> 01:17:42,840 Speaker 1: as a kid, we didn't get to go out and 1375 01:17:42,880 --> 01:17:45,760 Speaker 1: have popsicle recess until we got our work done. And 1376 01:17:46,000 --> 01:17:48,040 Speaker 1: the idea that Congress is going to take a big 1377 01:17:48,080 --> 01:17:50,559 Speaker 1: recess and and go home and put their feet up, 1378 01:17:50,640 --> 01:17:53,880 Speaker 1: or even go visit with their constituents without having completed 1379 01:17:53,880 --> 01:17:58,080 Speaker 1: the work, I think to most Americans is simply not acceptable. 1380 01:17:58,240 --> 01:18:01,960 Speaker 1: I think it puts their majority in heepart. I think 1381 01:18:02,080 --> 01:18:06,000 Speaker 1: it probably does. The only reason it probably doesn't is 1382 01:18:06,040 --> 01:18:09,320 Speaker 1: because the alternative would be electing Democrats. And all they've 1383 01:18:09,360 --> 01:18:12,240 Speaker 1: offered is we're going to continue to investigate Russia and 1384 01:18:12,240 --> 01:18:14,519 Speaker 1: impeach Donald Trump if we get the chance. And I 1385 01:18:14,520 --> 01:18:17,200 Speaker 1: think there are enough Americans who say, for Heaven's sakes, 1386 01:18:17,320 --> 01:18:20,520 Speaker 1: that's not what we want. We don't want to disable 1387 01:18:20,600 --> 01:18:23,479 Speaker 1: this president. We want to empower him so that he 1388 01:18:23,560 --> 01:18:27,000 Speaker 1: can help us get jobs, keep jobs, move the economy forward, 1389 01:18:27,400 --> 01:18:31,960 Speaker 1: protect America against nuts like that rule North Korea and Iran. 1390 01:18:32,200 --> 01:18:35,320 Speaker 1: And I just don't see the Democrats bringing forth any 1391 01:18:35,320 --> 01:18:37,920 Speaker 1: reason to vote for them. I gotta tell you something. 1392 01:18:38,080 --> 01:18:40,800 Speaker 1: I think that North Korea. I mean, it ought to 1393 01:18:40,840 --> 01:18:43,759 Speaker 1: be a wake up call about Iran. I don't see 1394 01:18:43,800 --> 01:18:47,240 Speaker 1: any good answer Governor on North Korea. I mean, if 1395 01:18:47,240 --> 01:18:49,960 Speaker 1: you go in preemptively, what is what is this mental 1396 01:18:49,960 --> 01:18:53,759 Speaker 1: patient of a dictator gonna fire missiles or nuclear weapons 1397 01:18:53,760 --> 01:18:55,960 Speaker 1: in the South Korea, is going to fire them at Japan. 1398 01:18:56,560 --> 01:18:59,439 Speaker 1: Is he willing to go scorched earth? I don't see 1399 01:18:59,439 --> 01:19:02,240 Speaker 1: a good Canada that. I don't think there is one. 1400 01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:06,040 Speaker 1: But the longer this continues to percolate, the worst it gets. 1401 01:19:06,400 --> 01:19:08,880 Speaker 1: It's not like it gets better, It only gets worse. 1402 01:19:09,160 --> 01:19:11,840 Speaker 1: And that's why I think that the sooner the better, 1403 01:19:12,120 --> 01:19:14,040 Speaker 1: there's going to have to be some type of strong 1404 01:19:14,080 --> 01:19:17,839 Speaker 1: action taken that disables the North Korean's ability to continue 1405 01:19:17,880 --> 01:19:22,080 Speaker 1: to fire missiles and make these kind of very frightening 1406 01:19:22,120 --> 01:19:26,360 Speaker 1: overtures towards UH trying to launch into South Korea as 1407 01:19:26,400 --> 01:19:29,120 Speaker 1: well as ultimately to the United States. Scary. All right, 1408 01:19:29,160 --> 01:19:31,880 Speaker 1: Governor Huckabee, we'll see you tonight on Hannity. And you've 1409 01:19:31,880 --> 01:19:33,679 Speaker 1: got to be very proud of your daughter. I think 1410 01:19:33,760 --> 01:19:35,920 Speaker 1: is doing a great job in a under very very 1411 01:19:35,960 --> 01:19:39,200 Speaker 1: difficult circumstances. And thank god she got your sense of 1412 01:19:39,240 --> 01:19:42,000 Speaker 1: humor because she needs it. Well. She's a great kid, 1413 01:19:42,200 --> 01:19:45,479 Speaker 1: she's tough, and I think she's doing a great job 1414 01:19:45,520 --> 01:19:47,559 Speaker 1: of the president. And of course, Sean, let me be 1415 01:19:47,680 --> 01:19:50,800 Speaker 1: very clear, I am as objective about my daughter. The 1416 01:19:50,800 --> 01:19:53,800 Speaker 1: New York Times is about Donald Trump. Yeah, I think 1417 01:19:53,800 --> 01:19:56,040 Speaker 1: that's a good way to put it. But honestly, objectively 1418 01:19:56,120 --> 01:19:58,960 Speaker 1: from me, I think that as the most miserable job 1419 01:19:59,000 --> 01:20:01,080 Speaker 1: on the face of this earth, because you have the 1420 01:20:01,120 --> 01:20:04,040 Speaker 1: most hostile news media I think in the history of 1421 01:20:04,040 --> 01:20:06,040 Speaker 1: the country, although it's been hostile in the past, but 1422 01:20:06,120 --> 01:20:07,840 Speaker 1: not like this. All right, Governor huck could be good 1423 01:20:07,880 --> 01:20:10,320 Speaker 1: to see it. Thank you. We'll see you tonight. Eight one, 1424 01:20:10,360 --> 01:20:12,519 Speaker 1: Sean is our number. We'll take a break. We'll come 1425 01:20:12,520 --> 01:20:15,439 Speaker 1: back wide open telephones on this Monday, and your calls 1426 01:20:15,439 --> 01:20:48,680 Speaker 1: are coming up next. Holding them accountable. Sean gets the 1427 01:20:48,760 --> 01:20:54,160 Speaker 1: answers no one else does. America desserts and know the 1428 01:20:54,280 --> 01:20:58,479 Speaker 1: truth about Congress alright now till the top of the 1429 01:20:58,520 --> 01:21:01,120 Speaker 1: hour one, Shawn, if you want to be a part 1430 01:21:01,120 --> 01:21:05,200 Speaker 1: of the program. I am so apoplectic. After seven years, 1431 01:21:05,439 --> 01:21:09,680 Speaker 1: this is where we end up. It is so beyond frustrating. 1432 01:21:09,800 --> 01:21:12,719 Speaker 1: But I first want to remind you the president's ready 1433 01:21:12,760 --> 01:21:15,519 Speaker 1: to sign it. He's not Obama, you know, he's got 1434 01:21:15,520 --> 01:21:17,519 Speaker 1: a pen in hand, as he'd been saying, and he 1435 01:21:17,560 --> 01:21:21,479 Speaker 1: reminds them of their promises taking on his party because 1436 01:21:21,479 --> 01:21:25,800 Speaker 1: they're weak, they're ineffective, spineless, and visionless, and as I 1437 01:21:25,840 --> 01:21:29,439 Speaker 1: have been saying, lacking identity. The question for every Senator, 1438 01:21:29,760 --> 01:21:34,720 Speaker 1: Democrat or Republican is whether they will side with Obamacare's architects, 1439 01:21:35,000 --> 01:21:37,920 Speaker 1: which have been so destructive to our country, or with 1440 01:21:38,040 --> 01:21:42,919 Speaker 1: its forgotten victims. Any Senator who votes against starting debate 1441 01:21:43,240 --> 01:21:48,240 Speaker 1: is telling America that you are fine with the Obamacare nightmare, 1442 01:21:48,280 --> 01:21:51,240 Speaker 1: which is what it is. I've been here just six months. 1443 01:21:51,680 --> 01:21:53,640 Speaker 1: I'm ready to act. I have pen in hand to 1444 01:21:53,720 --> 01:21:56,559 Speaker 1: believe me. I'm sitting in that office. I have pen 1445 01:21:56,920 --> 01:21:59,360 Speaker 1: in hand. You never had that before. You know, for 1446 01:21:59,439 --> 01:22:02,400 Speaker 1: seven years, as you had an easy route, will repeal, 1447 01:22:02,520 --> 01:22:05,200 Speaker 1: will replace, and he's never gonna sign it. But I'm 1448 01:22:05,240 --> 01:22:07,320 Speaker 1: signing it. So it's a little bit different. But I'm 1449 01:22:07,320 --> 01:22:10,320 Speaker 1: ready to act. For seven years, you promised the American 1450 01:22:10,360 --> 01:22:14,240 Speaker 1: people that you would repeal Obamacare. People are hurting. In 1451 01:22:14,320 --> 01:22:17,639 Speaker 1: action is not an option, and frankly, I don't think 1452 01:22:17,720 --> 01:22:22,160 Speaker 1: we should leave town unless we have a health insurance plan, 1453 01:22:22,640 --> 01:22:25,640 Speaker 1: unless we can give our people great healthcare. I've been 1454 01:22:25,680 --> 01:22:28,400 Speaker 1: here just six months. I'm ready to act. I have 1455 01:22:28,479 --> 01:22:31,160 Speaker 1: pen in hand to believe me. I'm sitting in that office. 1456 01:22:31,600 --> 01:22:35,080 Speaker 1: I have pen in hand. You never had that before. 1457 01:22:35,160 --> 01:22:37,880 Speaker 1: You know, for seven years, you had an easy route, 1458 01:22:37,920 --> 01:22:40,920 Speaker 1: will repeal, will replace, and he's never gonna sign it. 1459 01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:43,120 Speaker 1: But I'm signing it, so it's a little bit different. 1460 01:22:43,160 --> 01:22:45,879 Speaker 1: But I'm ready to act. For seven years, you promised 1461 01:22:45,920 --> 01:22:49,679 Speaker 1: the American people that you would repeal Obamacare. People are hurting. 1462 01:22:49,840 --> 01:22:52,960 Speaker 1: In action is not an option. And frankly, I don't 1463 01:22:52,960 --> 01:22:56,759 Speaker 1: think we should leave town unless we have a health 1464 01:22:56,800 --> 01:23:00,639 Speaker 1: insurance plan, unless we can give our people rate healthcare. 1465 01:23:00,760 --> 01:23:03,559 Speaker 1: And then you got angry Senator McCain. He didn't mind 1466 01:23:03,560 --> 01:23:05,879 Speaker 1: being on this show boy when he was running for president, 1467 01:23:05,920 --> 01:23:07,840 Speaker 1: didn't mind reaching out to me when he was running 1468 01:23:07,880 --> 01:23:11,639 Speaker 1: for Senate and tough, tough primaries. And here's Senator McCain, 1469 01:23:12,000 --> 01:23:15,200 Speaker 1: you know, so angry, you know, at at me for 1470 01:23:15,320 --> 01:23:19,799 Speaker 1: telling you the truth. Stop listening to the bombastic loud 1471 01:23:19,840 --> 01:23:23,000 Speaker 1: mouths on the radio and television and the internet. To 1472 01:23:23,080 --> 01:23:28,400 Speaker 1: hell with them. They don't want anything done for the 1473 01:23:28,439 --> 01:23:33,840 Speaker 1: public good. Our incapacity is their livelihood. All right, Well, 1474 01:23:33,920 --> 01:23:35,679 Speaker 1: let's get to our busy phones here on those Monday 1475 01:23:35,680 --> 01:23:37,360 Speaker 1: all right, as we check in, and we got jay 1476 01:23:37,520 --> 01:23:39,840 Speaker 1: is in Albany, New York w G y J.

Thanks taking my call, Yes, sir, Yeah, 1478 01:23:43,880 --> 01:23:46,080 Speaker 1: I mean they really don't have any motivation for two 1479 01:23:46,080 --> 01:23:49,160 Speaker 1: thousand and eighteen. There's only eight Republican feeds up for 1480 01:23:49,360 --> 01:23:51,360 Speaker 1: re election in the Senate, and only one of them 1481 01:23:51,360 --> 01:23:53,280 Speaker 1: is really going to be contested in that Flake. The 1482 01:23:53,320 --> 01:23:56,400 Speaker 1: rest of them are all pretty safe. Well, look, listen, 1483 01:23:56,400 --> 01:23:59,120 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you something. Flake needs to go. When 1484 01:23:59,120 --> 01:24:01,840 Speaker 1: he said that Trump, you know, and the Republican Party 1485 01:24:01,880 --> 01:24:06,000 Speaker 1: lost their way given into nativismsophobia. Know, we lost our 1486 01:24:06,080 --> 01:24:10,080 Speaker 1: way because of people like his fellow senator that can't 1487 01:24:10,160 --> 01:24:13,480 Speaker 1: keep their words, and their in action is not because 1488 01:24:13,920 --> 01:24:16,840 Speaker 1: of people like me, because we've been offering solutions, Jay. 1489 01:24:17,240 --> 01:24:19,400 Speaker 1: Have you, for example, have you heard me talk about 1490 01:24:19,400 --> 01:24:22,280 Speaker 1: health savings accounts probably at nauseum. Have you heard me 1491 01:24:22,320 --> 01:24:25,040 Speaker 1: talk about these co ops with with Dr Josh Umber 1492 01:24:25,160 --> 01:24:28,479 Speaker 1: at nauseum on this program? Yeah yeah, aren't they good ideas? 1493 01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:31,080 Speaker 1: And then the idea of fifty bucks a month unlimited care, 1494 01:24:31,200 --> 01:24:34,040 Speaker 1: great idea, Oh absolutely, but they'll never do that. I mean, 1495 01:24:34,400 --> 01:24:36,920 Speaker 1: this has been the greatest fundraising tool for the party 1496 01:24:37,120 --> 01:24:38,960 Speaker 1: in the history of their party. So they're not ready 1497 01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:41,360 Speaker 1: to give it up exactly. They have twenty two seats 1498 01:24:41,360 --> 01:24:43,960 Speaker 1: and they need to raise money for twenty twenty. They're 1499 01:24:44,000 --> 01:24:46,920 Speaker 1: not thinking about it now. All right, it's unbelievable to me. 1500 01:24:46,960 --> 01:24:48,400 Speaker 1: I don't know how these guys run on this. I 1501 01:24:48,439 --> 01:24:49,960 Speaker 1: really don't. All right, we was gonna stay in Albany. 1502 01:24:50,000 --> 01:24:52,040 Speaker 1: We got Ryan and Albany. Also, what's up, Brian? How 1503 01:24:52,080 --> 01:24:55,599 Speaker 1: are you hi? I'm good, Sean, Thanks for taking my call. Um, Yeah, 1504 01:24:55,800 --> 01:24:58,479 Speaker 1: just regarding this tall health character back off, Um, what 1505 01:24:58,600 --> 01:25:00,960 Speaker 1: do you think? What action do you think we can 1506 01:25:00,960 --> 01:25:03,800 Speaker 1: shro it stay so we can get the scifty one 1507 01:25:03,920 --> 01:25:06,160 Speaker 1: votes in the future, whether it be to the primary. 1508 01:25:06,640 --> 01:25:08,519 Speaker 1: You got to get rid of the nuclear option. I 1509 01:25:08,520 --> 01:25:10,000 Speaker 1: think the first thing you to get rid of the 1510 01:25:10,080 --> 01:25:14,559 Speaker 1: nuclear option. And although we still fell shy, it would 1511 01:25:14,560 --> 01:25:18,200 Speaker 1: be a big first step. In other words, you know, 1512 01:25:18,439 --> 01:25:21,880 Speaker 1: think about it this way. Democrats don't play fair. In 1513 01:25:21,920 --> 01:25:27,640 Speaker 1: other words, the Democrats, you know, Republicans gave Obama his appointments, 1514 01:25:27,720 --> 01:25:31,880 Speaker 1: and all Schumer's done is is not allowed McConnell in 1515 01:25:31,920 --> 01:25:34,200 Speaker 1: some ways to go forward with the people that the 1516 01:25:34,240 --> 01:25:37,679 Speaker 1: president needs to get rid of obama holdovers and get 1517 01:25:37,680 --> 01:25:39,679 Speaker 1: his team in place. They still haven't gotten so many 1518 01:25:39,880 --> 01:25:43,479 Speaker 1: positions filled, you know, And so that's because the Democrats 1519 01:25:43,560 --> 01:25:46,160 Speaker 1: don't play fair. Democrats, you know, they get all up 1520 01:25:46,160 --> 01:25:50,000 Speaker 1: in arms that you can't filibuster or a Supreme Court nominee. 1521 01:25:50,439 --> 01:25:52,679 Speaker 1: And yet they were about to do it with Neil Gorsuch. 1522 01:25:52,840 --> 01:25:55,760 Speaker 1: The Democrats are never gonna play fair. And as they've 1523 01:25:55,760 --> 01:25:57,560 Speaker 1: gone now harder and harder to the left. So you 1524 01:25:57,600 --> 01:26:01,200 Speaker 1: might as well just make it simple majority all circumstances, 1525 01:26:01,320 --> 01:26:04,920 Speaker 1: and that's all we need you. That's the only way. 1526 01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:07,639 Speaker 1: It's the only thing I think they'll understand. Just like 1527 01:26:07,880 --> 01:26:10,680 Speaker 1: if you want to end Russia, Russia, Russia, Fine, we 1528 01:26:10,720 --> 01:26:14,120 Speaker 1: know Hillary committed felonies. Now go after Hillary. Fine, we 1529 01:26:14,240 --> 01:26:16,280 Speaker 1: know that come me acted in the wrong way. We'll 1530 01:26:16,280 --> 01:26:19,000 Speaker 1: go after him. Now, let's go after Loretta Lynch, Let's 1531 01:26:19,000 --> 01:26:22,439 Speaker 1: go after the Ukraine. Let's go after uranium one, and 1532 01:26:22,520 --> 01:26:24,679 Speaker 1: let's find out who's up to their eyeballs and where 1533 01:26:24,680 --> 01:26:27,280 Speaker 1: did the money really come from with uranium one. Those 1534 01:26:27,320 --> 01:26:30,080 Speaker 1: are the questions once you start putting it back on them. 1535 01:26:30,080 --> 01:26:32,559 Speaker 1: And the Republicans have the power of subpoena, and they 1536 01:26:32,560 --> 01:26:34,880 Speaker 1: have the committee power, and they don't use the power. 1537 01:26:35,320 --> 01:26:37,400 Speaker 1: Then we're just being weak and in effective, just like 1538 01:26:37,439 --> 01:26:40,160 Speaker 1: they're weaken and effective advancing their agenda. You know, it's 1539 01:26:40,160 --> 01:26:42,400 Speaker 1: frustrating to me that I've got to spell this out 1540 01:26:42,439 --> 01:26:45,800 Speaker 1: for these people. It's beyond frustrating. They accuse us of 1541 01:26:45,880 --> 01:26:48,519 Speaker 1: not having a vision. You know, we're the ones that 1542 01:26:48,560 --> 01:26:50,800 Speaker 1: want the Penny Plan. We're the ones that want health 1543 01:26:50,840 --> 01:26:53,519 Speaker 1: savings accounts and health care cooperatives and we've talked about 1544 01:26:53,560 --> 01:26:57,600 Speaker 1: for fifteen years. We're the ones that say become energy independent. 1545 01:26:57,600 --> 01:27:00,719 Speaker 1: We're the ones that say choice and education. We were 1546 01:27:00,760 --> 01:27:03,679 Speaker 1: the ones that say identify evil in our time. We're 1547 01:27:03,680 --> 01:27:06,599 Speaker 1: the ones say build the wall. We have ideas, we 1548 01:27:06,680 --> 01:27:10,320 Speaker 1: have solutions. These guys all got elected on the same principles. 1549 01:27:10,360 --> 01:27:12,720 Speaker 1: We believe in tax cuts, we believe in you know, 1550 01:27:12,760 --> 01:27:16,360 Speaker 1: middle class tax cuts, corporate tax cuts, repatriation. Why because 1551 01:27:16,400 --> 01:27:18,960 Speaker 1: we want we want to be we want Americans back 1552 01:27:18,960 --> 01:27:21,600 Speaker 1: to work out of poverty, all for food stamps. We 1553 01:27:21,640 --> 01:27:24,240 Speaker 1: want to be energy independent, so countries that don't hate 1554 01:27:24,240 --> 01:27:26,600 Speaker 1: our guts were not dependent on them anymore. And not 1555 01:27:26,680 --> 01:27:30,040 Speaker 1: only that, we can help free Western Europe of the 1556 01:27:30,760 --> 01:27:34,559 Speaker 1: threat that Vladimir Putin poses if he dares to turn 1557 01:27:34,600 --> 01:27:37,120 Speaker 1: off the spike it one day with the lifeblood of 1558 01:27:37,160 --> 01:27:40,240 Speaker 1: their economy, which is energy. It's you know, they're simple 1559 01:27:40,320 --> 01:27:43,240 Speaker 1: things we can do and none of my a none 1560 01:27:43,240 --> 01:27:45,280 Speaker 1: of the things that I laid out. Why would it 1561 01:27:45,320 --> 01:27:47,679 Speaker 1: be so bad to cut one penny out of every 1562 01:27:47,720 --> 01:27:51,800 Speaker 1: dollar we spend in Washington every year for six years, 1563 01:27:51,800 --> 01:27:54,439 Speaker 1: so we stopped stealing from our future generations and our 1564 01:27:54,479 --> 01:27:57,360 Speaker 1: kids and grandkids. It's unbelievable to me. Why can't we 1565 01:27:57,400 --> 01:28:00,800 Speaker 1: do that one simple thing? They can't even repeat Obamacare, 1566 01:28:01,000 --> 01:28:03,760 Speaker 1: one simple thing that they promised and ran on and 1567 01:28:03,800 --> 01:28:06,760 Speaker 1: we believe for seven years. These these ideas are not 1568 01:28:06,840 --> 01:28:10,320 Speaker 1: that hard, not that complicated. This is not deep. This 1569 01:28:10,439 --> 01:28:12,880 Speaker 1: is you know, do you have an identity? Are there 1570 01:28:12,920 --> 01:28:16,080 Speaker 1: guiding principles in your party? And if you have the principles, 1571 01:28:16,400 --> 01:28:19,040 Speaker 1: have the political courage to do what you say you're 1572 01:28:19,080 --> 01:28:22,000 Speaker 1: going to do. It's one thing when Obama was president, 1573 01:28:22,080 --> 01:28:25,080 Speaker 1: repeal replaced. Yeah, you'll vote for sixty five times until 1574 01:28:25,120 --> 01:28:27,559 Speaker 1: it actually is going to mean something. We say hi 1575 01:28:27,720 --> 01:28:30,559 Speaker 1: to Diane and Fort Lauderdale in Florida. Diane, how are 1576 01:28:30,600 --> 01:28:34,719 Speaker 1: you glad you called? Hello?

That's all I 1595 01:29:27,080 --> 01:29:29,559 Speaker 1: gotta say. Yeah, that's what I said, a little feisty 1596 01:29:29,640 --> 01:29:32,160 Speaker 1: Italian woman, And I'll say you, I've been a Democrat 1597 01:29:32,200 --> 01:29:35,040 Speaker 1: in nant Ward and Bridgeport for my whole life.

And if I could go and follow 1599 01:29:38,720 --> 01:29:41,840 Speaker 1: Mr Trump or you guys at Fox News, I would 1600 01:29:41,840 --> 01:29:44,960 Speaker 1: be there every day just to be there. I love it, 1601 01:29:45,400 --> 01:29:48,040 Speaker 1: the excitement and all of it. And you are just 1602 01:29:48,320 --> 01:29:52,120 Speaker 1: you don't look. The Republican Party is a party without 1603 01:29:52,160 --> 01:29:54,840 Speaker 1: identity and vision in their gutless and I know a 1604 01:29:54,840 --> 01:29:57,160 Speaker 1: lot of us are angry and and they've let us, 1605 01:29:57,760 --> 01:30:00,360 Speaker 1: you know.

We're going to continue to fight. It's 1614 01:30:31,160 --> 01:30:35,640 Speaker 1: gonna be Look, we basically have to rebuild with ideas 1615 01:30:35,640 --> 01:30:39,559 Speaker 1: and solutions. The Republican Party, I mean, they just it's 1616 01:30:39,760 --> 01:30:43,040 Speaker 1: it's just pretty pathetic. But you know what, if you're healthy, 1617 01:30:43,120 --> 01:30:45,880 Speaker 1: your family is healthy, your kids are healthy. You know what, 1618 01:30:46,000 --> 01:30:49,680 Speaker 1: We live to fight other days, and it's just disappointing 1619 01:30:49,680 --> 01:30:51,760 Speaker 1: because we fought so long and so hard, and this 1620 01:30:51,800 --> 01:30:54,640 Speaker 1: is how it ends, so anti climatic.

Daryl, how 1675 01:33:43,200 --> 01:33:47,240 Speaker 1: are you, Mr Hannity. It's an honor to speak to 1676 01:33:47,280 --> 01:33:49,800 Speaker 1: you today, sir. I'd just like to point out one 1677 01:33:49,840 --> 01:33:54,599 Speaker 1: thing as well as Obamacare, um being a total lie 1678 01:33:54,640 --> 01:33:56,960 Speaker 1: on both sides of the Democrat lying how great it is, 1679 01:33:56,960 --> 01:34:00,000 Speaker 1: the Republicans saying how they're gonna repeal and replace. Nothing's happen. 1680 01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:05,559 Speaker 1: And um, every politician, every election, whether it's two, four, 1681 01:34:05,640 --> 01:34:09,080 Speaker 1: six years, says how they're going to help the veterans. 1682 01:34:09,600 --> 01:34:12,120 Speaker 1: They're going to overhaul the v A system and it's 1683 01:34:12,160 --> 01:34:16,160 Speaker 1: more healthcare reform, if you will. That's just a lie, 1684 01:34:17,479 --> 01:34:21,720 Speaker 1: especially to US veterans who are seeking help and none 1685 01:34:21,800 --> 01:34:24,639 Speaker 1: is given. Well the President, and fairness to him, they did. 1686 01:34:24,760 --> 01:34:28,080 Speaker 1: That's one of the President's successes is they've actually increased 1687 01:34:28,120 --> 01:34:32,559 Speaker 1: the money significantly, the option significantly, and the VAS now 1688 01:34:33,640 --> 01:34:36,840 Speaker 1: under a major transformation to stop the corruption and the 1689 01:34:37,080 --> 01:34:39,640 Speaker 1: broken promises that we made to them. So there we 1690 01:34:39,680 --> 01:34:41,600 Speaker 1: actually have made a lot of progress in terms of 1691 01:34:41,600 --> 01:34:45,000 Speaker 1: the Veterans Administration, health care for our vets and reform. 1692 01:34:45,040 --> 01:34:46,840 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying it's perfect yet, but I mean 1693 01:34:46,880 --> 01:34:50,719 Speaker 1: it's dramatically improved. And if you are still having problems 1694 01:34:50,720 --> 01:34:52,800 Speaker 1: and you are a VET and you've been dealing with 1695 01:34:52,840 --> 01:34:55,679 Speaker 1: the old regime that was there before the President Trump 1696 01:34:55,680 --> 01:34:57,760 Speaker 1: got into office, you know you need to check in 1697 01:34:57,760 --> 01:35:00,280 Speaker 1: with your local congressman and senator. Make them more for you, 1698 01:35:00,400 --> 01:35:03,479 Speaker 1: because those things should be dramatically better. And if you 1699 01:35:03,520 --> 01:35:05,680 Speaker 1: can't get the treatment, you're allowed to go out elsewhere 1700 01:35:05,680 --> 01:35:10,120 Speaker 1: to get it and in a timely fashion. So um, 1701 01:35:10,160 --> 01:35:12,479 Speaker 1: you know everything the President has been able to do himself. 1702 01:35:12,479 --> 01:35:15,920 Speaker 1: He has a vision. President is fighting. The President is 1703 01:35:15,960 --> 01:35:18,200 Speaker 1: doing the things he said he'd do. It's it's the 1704 01:35:18,439 --> 01:35:28,599 Speaker 1: Congress that can't get their act together.
